with Windows mobile 2003 Second Edition
the problem is that sometime i could not receive the call , the message occurs "unable to answer the call".
When i try to tab phone icon the message " The phone is not ready wait 15 seconds and try again" occurs .
anybody could help me what to do.
I am getting the same problem why is this?
I have a o2 xda IIs, i have installed WM6 Pro CE OS 5.2.1933 (Build 18533.0.7.0) Updated [30.11.2007]
i face the same problem, furthermore i realize when the battery is near 30% da phone becomes buggy in the sense dat messages stop getting sent and after soft resets da trouble is the network stops getting detected only after 5 minutes i see network signals,as soon as i hookup the phone with power the sms problem is immediately solved!
It may be helpful to note i have not installed any third party software and the phone has been hard reset only a few days ago!
Does the parite virus affect the phone? i installed parite infected .exe software through AS 4.5 and as a precaution hard resetted the phone following that!!
furthermore tapping answer doesnt work and the call automatically gets disconnected!!!
Try Upadating your ROM to Xplode's one. And yes one important thing , always keep your bluetooth on ( you may uncheck the beam option). This may solve your problem.

NO dont do that. it will drain your battery faster if bluetooth is on.
make sure it is OFF and also check the infrared (Beam).
You're battery might be failing to power up the phone module.
Try a new battery.
I've experienced some used battery.
Below 30% is very critical for ALL PocketPC operations, this is the point where some glitch tends to pop-up because the battery cant support
the power requirement of the hardware in which the software was using
(Ex. Phone, Camera, LCD, Speaker, Mic, Digitizer) thus, it fails bigtime or sometimes crashes.
Except if your battery is newer where the 30% which steadily and accurately give power to our BA.
And make sure you terminate all your programs if you've finished using it, if it is running it might affect the power consumption because it is still present in the memory.
anyone can sync without using original cradle or bluetooth? i m having problems with non-ori cables..on usb port.. help pls!!!

Does this happens right after powering on ?
It is normal to take a long time to boot up the SIM Cards configuration and specially SIM contacts onto the phone's memory.

OMG i realize after 35% my phone starts getting buggy, messages dont get sent :s phone hangs and has to be reset :O...can anyone tell me if a new battery for a blue angel is a good idea? and furthermore I am willing to invest in a new battery can anyone send me links for a cheap O2 XDA IIS battery which will last rigorous use? can anyone verify stability issues after 30%?
The phone is not ready. Wait 15 secondsd and try again. !!!
And can't open Options for the phone and not able to send SMS.
Using:
WM6 5.2.1938 (Build 18538.0.7.0.PV.HAT)Touch & Office 6.1 NetCF 3.5
Radio 1.12
Trying reflashing and also with another PV WM6 2000 and trying to send SMS immidiately after reflashing but no luck! Though it worked in the first days of switching to WM6.
Could it be the Radio 1.12 version problem?
Thanks for helping!
Ok see if you SIM is perfectly making contact. I had the same problem. I did put some bit of paper on the over the SIM . So that after closing the back cover it fitted snuglly to its slot.

I did charge the battery and while in the cradle the phone Options and sending out SMS says the same thing about waiting for 15 seconds.
But the phone itself works with incoming and outgoing calls and I can receive the SMS !!!

Which upgrading method of the 2 that are described in the XDA Wiki?
Last time I tried both it seems it didn't work for me.
One says that is just Radio updating and the other the whole WM operating system?
Kind Regards
www.myspace.cn/taijiyoga
Just try the radio updating only. The one in the wiki is good.
or copy the radio.nbf to where nk.nbf is. then flash both only if you want.
if you just want the radio. delete the nk.nbf.
then launch MAUpgradeUT_NoID.exe
I had a very same problem.
The problem was solved by buying a new battery.
At least for me, the only problem was the battery. Now everything is going fine...
Yup. Mostly, but not all, problems are battery related. our BA's really a powermonger when it comes to eating battery mAh
so the most common advice for a hardware failure or such is a change of battery.
note: even our desktop PC's malfunction if it is running undervolt.

Hello people
I just got a new XDA IIs from O2.
This thread will hopefully serve purpose to all other new users of the XDA IIs as well.
I just got it and wondering how I can get the best of it like all you lot. You all seem to know quite a lot about it.
Here are the details I managed to pull out from it.
ROM version: 1.31.00 WWE
ROM date: 12/03/04
Radio version: 1.06.00
Protocol version: 1337.38
ExROM versiom: 1.31.139 WWE
Windows Mobile 2003 SE
Version: 4.21.1088 (Build 14132)
Processor Intel(R) PXA263
Bluetooth for Windows CE
BT-PPC/PE Version 1.0.0 Build 3500
I beleive I need to update this to the latest of whatever is out there. I dont know what good they would do to the PDA either.
From reading some of the posts here on the forum, I managed to find out about Battery Pack Pro v2 and ewallet. These are the only 2 software I installed. Oh yes, I got hold of serial keys for both of these so anyone who needs the serials, your problem is solved. Just sent me a msg.
Futhermore, I have installed the GPRS monitor which I cant find much use of.
Other software:
Skype
Macromedia flash player
FonixVoiceDial
I have beebn browsing on the GPRS alot as well, I would apreciate confirmation that GPRS on o2 is free.
I was wondering how to upgrade the windows media player 9.
As you all can see, I just got it and trying to get the most of it. Any help would be apreciated. All the newbies check the thread as much as possible, someone is bound to help.
I just purchased a backup copy of tomtom 5 from ebay for a few quid (not original apparently). He is shipping it soon. The guy claims its unlocked etc. I hope I can make it work. Any advice?
I will purchase an SD card and bluetooth receiver soon for tomtom. Anything I need to know before I do ?
I was wondering what games I can put on it as well. I can come up with so many questions. I have been looking at other posts as well. For instance, fixing the camera drivers for better picture quality and playing an MP3 as a ringtone. These threds are started where the problem arises rather than how to do it from scratch, so a bit lost there.
I am just looking for some free advice. God bless.
First off ditch the O2 rubbish that came with the phone ( the active interface) it will reduce the number of times it crashes - hard reset then when prompted select Corporate user and enter 0506 as the key. As for TT5 it works fine with my O2XDAII2 but NOT with bluetooth GPS - I use bluetooth for my headset and found it terminated the GPS when I hang up from a call - now using a wired GPS and BT headset its all fine. As for MP3 as a ringtone put it on the PDA nav to it in file explorer tap and hold then from the pop up box select "set as ringtone" - works fine for me. You do have the latest firmware / OS as far as O2 is concerned, others can comment if this is any good or not. One other tip if when you make a call or answer an inbound there is no one there - i.e. you can't hear anyone, select bluetooth on then off and re-make the call - don't know why it does this as its real anoying - Finally had two bills from O2 since I got my XDA and neither had any charge pertainin to the use of GPRS, and I was using it but not too much as I use WIFI its quicker and free in my local pub!! mike
Hey and thanks for responding.
So you reckon a hard reset wout fix the crashes eh, I'll have to try that, just that I installed a lot of stuff on this and would need to purchase an SD card to do all the backup. All in good time though.
I tried out what you said about navigating to the MP3 file and then holding down choosing SET AS RINGTONE thing, there is no such option on my set. Maybe some sort of driver needs to be installed?
Thanks for the tip for the GPS wired set. I will definitely go for that. I am using the Nokia bluetooth headset, do you think I should switch to Jabra BT250?
Can anyone comment on the ROM updates?
What is Radio? What does that mean?
Alitech,
Have a read through this first:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
Thanks for the link. I have checked it out. I will take it slow with the updates, dont want to muck up you know.
You seem to have all the latest Roms installed. Well done.

radio is the software that turns the pda into a mobile fone, also functions the bluetooth, tho i am led to beleive that, so someone correct me if i am wrong,
you are on o2's rom of 1.31.00 WWE, you seriously need to upgrade, but not on an o2 rom, i would suggest an upgrade to 1.40, but only if you dont mind playing with it, cos first timers tend to need help after they cannot get it to startup again, lol, many a time i have helped people after this, lol, but imate 1.40 is a good rom, which i use and it is as stable as it is ever going to get, there is no o2 rubbish, altho i did like it, it is pointless when it creates more harm than good. bluetooth will work better, but only for sending files and so on..... as it will upgrade to BT 3900. oh and wm10 which is an added bonus,
i have heard on the other hand that people have had problems with this rom, but so far, ive had it about 2-3 months now, and its never given me a problem!!!..so best to read wiki and browse the forums for 1.40 rom questions.
if you decide to upgrade to a better rom, and need help, just ask us on here and we will be happy to help.... or pm me and i sort you out.....
joey. 8)
Thanks for your offer joey. I will definitely send you a pm once i have read all that needs to be read. I will check out everything in detail.
I dont think any other phone compares to these customizable mofos. We rule.
I have found the O2 interface makes the IIs very unstable. There are threads that give details of how to remove it, but I have attached a text file giving the sequence. This does not need a hard reset at any stage, so you can keep all the software you have already loaded.
If you do at any time need to hard reset the O2 interface is automatically reloaded and so you will need to go through this process again.
missing attachment from last post
Give up here is the text instead!
O2 Active GUI removal
O2 seems to have been trying to make it more difficult to remove it this time, but once you get it cleared out the unit operates a lot faster.
1) Remove "connection.exe" in the "Windows/startup/ folder
2) Remove "xpdr_02" in the Windows/fonts/ folder
3) soft reset
4) Unistall "O2 Active UI"- note this will fail, but it gets rid of some items
5) Soft reset
6) Either from your PC, using ActiveSync or on the XDA IIs using file explorer, remove the entire "Mobile Solutions" folder from the windows/ folder.
7) Unistall "O2 Active UI" again - which again will fail, should this time advise program removed but again will indicate some items not removed
8) Remove the entire "ms" folder from the windows/ folder which should now be empty.
9) Soft reset
10) Check "remove programme" in settings to make sure that o2 active UI no longer appears in the list
11) Clear at last, well not quite. There is still a registry entry lurking that can be removed using "remover" or similar.
Hi folks ...
I face this problem with the phone many times a day. I can confirm it happens each time there is a failed call attempt (you couldn't make the call) ... the only way is to switch off the phone and turn it on again.
I thought it's something with RSU 1.09.00 but it happens also after downgrading to 1.08.00 ... so I think it has to do with the new ROM. It tells the signal maybe unavailable while you can see it is on the max level.
Edit: last observation ... it can receive SMS :?:
Any one faced this experience ??
Me Too
I Have the same problem :-(
Me Too
I Have the same problem :-(
Ive noticed in your screen shot the active sync is trying to connect with the internet which will prevent you phone from making the call. To give a example .... if I was downloading a file using my universal and someone tried to call me they would get my mail instead of ringing as the phone is using the internet connection however as soon as the file downloaded the phone would break the internet connection and allow the call. Hope that made sense!
I thought the service is supposed to interrupt the download if the phone rings as the primary function of the device is a telephone and secondary as a mobile computing platform.

That's what I always thought but even with my trusty old imate jam I found if I got a call as I was downloading say mail the call would not make it though, try downloading a biggish file then ring your phone number at the same time I bet it will not make it This as ALWAYS been the case btw - don't matter which rom you have. oh and this applies to gsm (2.5 gprs) only as 3G is a totally different ball game!
thx for all inputs but it happens even without activesync running ... it doesn't work again except by switching the phone off then on ... the most exciting part: u will never notice that your phone is frozen till you try to make a call :evil: ... this will make me to go back to the old rom
More observation on this issue ... I made a hard reset and started without any problems with the phone part ... I restored a system backup and all went well ... the phone issue appeared again when I paired my BT headset with the device ... this might mean something to do with the BT stack ... I believe it happens mostly during or after using the headset :?:
Any similar experiences ?

Same Problem Here... I was going to downgrade to 1.08.00, but now I may not... Don't want to lose the speed increase, so don't want to downgrade ROM...
back again ...
I made another hard reset and staretd without any s/w installed for a week .. the phone seemed to be stable but with the same annoying BT disconnect issue ... the above issue started to appear again after installing some phone related s/w like Smart Filter and PZP ... I think the new Radio ROMs starting with 1.08 have an issue with such applications that would continously check on phone traffic or have OS hooks to catch some events ... this wasn't the case with Radio 1.02 or 1.03 ... I 'm thinking to get back to 1.03 since I got nothing from 1.08 or 1.09 except quick battery draining!!
Hi,
I hope somebody can help me out here...
Basically I've got an O2 XDA Exec - I recently upgraded it with the the new O2 ROM - current version numbers below.
ROM Version: 1.30.107 WWE
ROM date: 04/11/06
Radio version: 1.09.00
Protocol version 42.42.P8
ExtROM version: 1.30.162 WWE
The upgrade went like clockwork and initially I was very pleased with the result - it runs faster and the screen adjusts almost instantly when flipped from vertical to horizontal, interface is a lot slicker too etc...
But then I discovered I've lost my MMS messages - when I go into my mail folders all I've got is "Outlook E-Mail" and "Text Messages"... there is also no option to send an MMS to any of my contacts...
More worryingly though is the battery life... It used to last at least several days - now I can have it fully charged before I go to bed and it is completely flat by morning. All I've got installed is VBirthDay deluxe and SPBBackup... and I had them installed before the upgrade and never had an issue with the battery. I should also point out that I don't have the wirless or bluetooth on and "accept all incoming beams" is off. This is making my phone unuseable.
Anybody know what could be wrong or how I can go back to the original ROM please? I just need a working phone again :roll:
Thanks for taking the time to read this far!
Steve
the mms settings are in the extended rom
download it from the ftp run them and you should be ablke to mms again
as for the battery problem... dunno about that
Battery problem...
I've been having the same problem with the battery. It seems like the radios aren't actually turned off when the functionality is, and if you use WiFi especially, even after telling it to switch off, you lose 10% of power per hour =O(
The only resolution I've found so far is to downgrade the radio ROM to the 1.04 one from the original ROM install. That's helped a fair bit. I've also found that soft resets do switch off the radios (mostly) so when I switch off the phone parts and put the Exec to bed for the night, I do a soft reset too. That mostly solves it. I can go 2-3 days sometimes between charges. But I also still find it flat some mornings =O( I *think* that has happened becasue I did the soft reset too soon after I switched off the phone, and so it "forgot" the phone was off when it came back up again. The downgrade to 1.04 certainly seems to have fixed the wifi power problem.
The only thing that *really* worked was downgrading the software completely, but I don't want to do that, and soon upgraded again.
Don't know the cause. I have 4 colleagues also with Execs, and I'm the only one seeing this =O(
Hope this helps,
Mark.
Thanks for the quick replies - please excuse my ignorance but I'm not familiar with the FTP site you refer to? I downloaded the upgrade from from the "my xda" website.
The battery problem is a bit worrying if there is no proper fix - strange that it doesn't affect everyone though...
for the ftp see http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site
as for the battery, my mda pro normally does 1 day of work before it needs recharging (with the new qtek rom, with the original tmobile nl rom this was the same) but i use it alot (watch complete movie a day in the train and use it for internet), if i dont use it alot it can manage about 2,5 day
(using the 1.09 radio rom btw)
Don't really know if it will help, but have you tried allowing the battery to fully discharge, then charging it for 15 hours or so. I know once upon a time batteries could loose their callibration and a full discharge and recharge (like when you first got it) can reset this. However to be honest I thought this sort of thing was long gone in modern batteries, but still maybe worth a try.
I feel like the dunce at the back of class now...

OK, the final piece of the puzzle - I downloaded and copied that file to my device and ran it from File Explorer - it asked where to install to and I selected device. It said it had installed successfully but I can't see any difference, even after a soft reset. Have I not installed it correctly?
I've also downloaded an older radio ROM(o2_Exec_Radio_Upgrade_1.06.00.exe) what is the correct way to go about installing this please?

Fixed!
Thanks very much for the helpful replies guys, I am happy to say that downgrading my Radio ROM back to 1.04 has fixed my problem! Normally every morning since the "upgrade" my battery would be flat - this morning I was delighted to open up my exec and not only be greeted by the "Today" screen but also to discover a battery with 95% charge left in it
My other problem (no MMS folders) seems to have been self inflicted - I checked after a hard reset and they were there, but they disappeared AFTER I restored my messages with SPBBackup. Something must have changed there and my old backup overwrites something important - not a huge loss - I can live without my old messages.
One other thing I forgot to mention - after I had upgraded the ROM originally - the phone would get hot when plugged into the charger - it didn't beforehand and it doesn't now with the 1.04 Radio ROM... strange.... :?
Congrats, Steve-L, you now seem to be where I am as far as battery life goes.
Next question for you - what happens if you switch on both the phone and bluetooth for the day, compared to just having the phone switched on?
For me, I lose about 5-8% an hour if BT is on, but only 1% if it's not. Which doesn't make any sense. I'm still experimenting to figure out why - maybe because I don't switch my BT-800 headset on until I need it, and the phone is hunting for it. That's tomorrow's experiment...
Ta,
Mark.
I'll have to try that tomorrow, but to be honest I think the Bluetooth has always drained my battery a bit quicker which is why I tend to leave it off unless I'm driving... Using the wifi is the real battery killer, especially if I have outlook checking for emails every few minutes.
I've still got 82% charge left after nearly a whole day with several phone calls and a spot of web browsing so I'm quite happy with it now

Hello,
i am facing some problems with my Hermes and I really don't know what is going on, the problems is that, although it shows that is connected to the telephone network, if somebody calls me it doesn't ring and is not responding. At that time that is not responding if i try to call the phone screen shows that is dialing but it is not, if i click the "End call" it doesn't end until it times out, after that it is not responding again and it needs a reset. After the reset it's working again until the next time that will crash.
I am using Schap's 4.31 rom with 1.54.30.10 radio
What do you suggest that i should do?
I got the same problem with older Schap's ROMs. When I flashed to K's or anything else (not based on Schap's) the problem disappeared.
I had the same exact issue, my solution to this issue was to replace the radio with 1.47.30.10. It has been 5 days without any issue. I hope that helps.
you just changed the radio? or the windows rom also?
I've had this issue on my Hermes, although it was evident on WM5, which is one of the reasons I upgraded to WM6, which alas just created other problems

also the battery doesn't last long, maybe 3 hours, i don't know why is that, and maybe that is what is causing the problem.
I just downloaded the radio from this link http://www.parkingdenied.com/filebrowser/Hermes/Radio+Roms
If I was you, I will try Radio down-grade first.
Good luck
When the phone freezes on the "dialing..." screen it is cuz the phone lost its network connection (although it wont show it). U can remedy this by turning the "phone" part (not the whole device) off then on again, so it will reconnect to the network.
Also, some radios are very power draining. Try check here for feedback on different radios.
Basically, there is a good chance all this messin u up is ur radio
Hello there,
What I Have: Att 8525 Herm100
Rom: Att's Mobile 6
Everything is stock but the extended life battery
The problem I am having is when ever I try to activate my WiFi the phone doesn't do anything. I am not sure if there is a wifi card or not but that's want I want to know. I have tried everything from activating it in com manager to going into the settings and activating it manually and nothing happens it acts like I didn't even hit the button to activate it. Is there a wifi card in the phone or is it integrated on the motherboard in the phone. Note: I bought this phone off e-bay and the wifi never worked when I received the phone.
I am new here and if there is a post about this already I am sorry.
I hate it when that happens.
To begin, there were two ATT OEM WM6 roms relevant to the 8525 that I noticed deep in the bowels of XGA.
I chose the later file (higher revision numbers) I found it here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions
From comm manager when I click the tower button on within a second the spinning windoze icon shows something is happening. It then starts "sniffing" for my preset wifi connection (ATT supplied 2wire portal 802.11g).
Now, if yours does not show the spinning windoze working icon when you turn on wifi? There obviously is a problem. This could be software, or hardware related (duh). If there is no error message related to "wifi is not an option, unavailable, or screwed" then my first guess is there is something missing or damaged in the ROM update that was applied to your device. As far as I know all 8525 (herm100) were shipped with wm5. It had been mentioned in the volumes of xda that the first AT&T WM6 rom was a little buggy. Try the later released AT&T WM6 update.
It was a run file so no muss no fuss. Sync the phone run the update from the pc, three minutes later the phone is flashed to ATT WM6 professional.
You could take it to a ATT shop? But, I think that without a doubt they would hand it back and say you need a new phone with a 20 year contract and 3g data plan even Obama would blush at.
Try the hard reset. take a picture of the startup screens so you have the numbers and see if the wifi startup is working after the reset. If not then compare the numbers to the above mentioned roms. If the indications are you have the first issue of WM6 from ATT try flashing the second release. If that still fails then your device could indeed have a hardware problem.
The wifi is indeed built into the system and if that chip on the board is not working it could be a overly expensive problem. Possibly a shop has a working board they would swap out cheap? Otherwise, it is a fun phone you can keep notes on, run gps software if you have a bluetooth gps receiver and software like tomtom.
To be honest the wifi on my 8525 has been convenient when around the house to check the local weather radar when I hear a thunder outside, or browse headlines from the porcelain room or even leave messenger turned on incase a gamer friend is looking for someone to get shot up in a game.
I have used the live search voice thing to amaze the neighbors once. But, the limited range of wifi is a real drawback to how truly wonderful that addition could be.
HELP Please! Wi-Fi not working!!!
Hi to XDA all users !!!
MY Hermes - HTC TyTN [Herm200]
I bought HTC Hermes myself year ago.
there was flashed a WM5.0, I've just downloaded from here HARD SPL & WM6,1 (Custom) Flashed.
Wi-Fi will works on WM5.0.
Well here I am at 6.1 flashed and now is not working Wi-Fi. When i pressed Power ON - loading long and nothing happens.
Other methods are also tried on Commanager and Settings - but did not help.
What do I need to do my dear.
HELP!
Thank you for your attention!
Hi Nurk.
Since the wifi worked on wm5 but failed after the 6.1 flash. I would guess the problem is in the 6.1 components. You might start with contacting the kitchen rom you employed for WM6.1 thread and see if this has happened to others. Next step would be to check the radio rom version. I did see on xda an assortment of Radio roms.
If your not totally in love with the current rom you have flashed? Try another 6.1 or even a 6.5 and see whats poppin.
and what you have in HKLM\Software\HTC\CommManager\WLAN\DeviceName?
