Password problem - MW6 bug or? - P3600 ROM Development

I had a problem with the password TWICE!! my P3600 does not recognize my password after i power off and on the device. i had to do a hard reset in order to use the device again, then i'd lost all my data. i am a Apple user so i did not back it up, actually i do not know how to sync my WM6 with my Apple.
now i do not use the password in fear that it may happen again. is this a bug with WM6? apparently a few people have experience this as well.

Hi,
it's a problem which happens if the device is reset before the change in the registry is written into the flashrom.
Turn the device off by holding the powerbutton down for about 10s, then you should be fine.

i did not power off/on, or reset, the device right after i created the password. the password was working fine when the device goes into the sleep mode. in fact, i am sure the password was fine as well when i power off/on a couple of times. it just seems to happen randomly without a pattern.
your suggestion seems logical enough, but i know for sure it was LONG enough for it to update the registry.

Good, someone else with this problem. I posted this in Shaps rom thread on Monday but got no reply.
I flashed a standard WM5 Orange M700 up to Schaps new rom.
First i sim unlocked it.
Then hard SPL
Then flashed the ROM
Got everything set up and must have rebooted a few times in different ways after setting the password and then 1 time it just wouldnt accept the password.
Hard reset, did everything again and same thing. I set the password the first thing when i first booted the device this time though and since that i must have reset about 5 or 6 times without problem when installing things like Random Access and stuff you obviously have to reboot. Then again after half an hour or so after another soft reset and it locks me out.
I flashed to a dif WM6 rom after this and i havent heard that there has been an issue yet.

thanks for th info. too bad it costs $39.99 just to sync it with Mac. I was hoping there is a free software out there.

okay. I just reread your first post... you said you were not able to back up data...
for me, I use PIM Backup by dotFred because it backs up the PIM on storage card, and can be restored on any WM version using the same program. (i.e. between wm5 and wm6) PIM data would be contacts, messages, call logs, calendard, etc.
if you'd really need to sync your pocket-pc to mac, you can see this
http://www.eltima.com/products/syncmate/
the one at sourceforge is still under development...

hey again,
i downloaded syncmate a few weeks ago, it works great. then today, it says my beta version expired and i should go to www.eltima.com to get the newer version. i tried but with no luck. i downloaded what appears to be the latest, yet whenever i start it up, i get the expired error again.
do you have any more info on this software? or anyone in this forum use this software to sync between Mac ans WM6?

i have the same "syncmate expired"-problem. I use HTC 3300 (WM6). It has worked for many weeks, but today i get this problem.

i thought this is a free software with no expiration date. the error suggested to go to their site for a newer version, yet there is none.
i am hoping someone in this forum may have a work around as it's nice to be able to sync between Mac and WM6

here is a solution: http://www.eltima.com/download/EltimaSyncMate.dmg
it works very well. i don't know why, but it works.

yeah, i did it no problem. on vista a tried for like 2 hours straight. then first time on XP worked like a charm. did you let it sync and everyhting first, then try doing it? i believe it helped some people to revert back to the 'upgrade rom' it puts it back to one of the first roms for updating, then going to the newest WM5.
oh wow an upgrade ROM... I've never heard about this... any ideas where to find it?? I already have the ROM I want to revert to. Thanks.
http://rapidshare.com/users/7UE30C
then click 'Dash Files ID=1' then on the bottom you'll see "RUU_Excalibur_SPL-1.11_UpgradeOnly.exe" download that and run it, I tried it on Vista, didn't work, but nothing worked for Vista. It's worth a shot.
hello can you help me?

I guess, I've reached the limit of flashing now :(

My device has undergone millions of flashes till now. Now, it just enters the bootloader and does not react to any ROM and bootloader tool.
Looks like my device is screaming, "Enough is enough! How many times will you change my spirit !! "
Bad news is, in my last flash, I went back to Helmi WM5 AKU3.5.1.
So, no further development from me(for both OSes)

it happened to me many times, its something that has to do with the rom image you're trying to flash.
try the following:
1. use the new NOCID_RUU flasher when universal is CONNECTED and sync'd with active sync.
2. use the old maUpgradeUt_noid.exe . uncheck USB connections from active sync, put in bootloader, and try to flash
(these steps you probably already did, but check out next step)
3. flash with a radio image. copy the radio_.nbf you want to the flash folder, aswell as the nk.nbf, then repeat steps 1 & 2
this has always worked for me when i had your problem (and it happend quite a few times)
Thanks everyone! When nothing worked, I turned to my GF's universal and did a SD-rom flash. Luckily, she too was running helmi aku3.5.1
Helmi Aku3.5 is a good ROM.
My Universal retires with it too.
It died in the beginning of the month. Hardware failure!!!

Windows MObile 6.1 for T-Mobile Dash

I've been reading up on this upgrade, and I'm very interested. The only thing is, if I do this, will it unlock my phone and if my phone unlocks, will it still work with my phone insurance? Also, were there any problems after doing this with MMS that I can fix if I were to encounter any? I've read people having problems with MMS afterwards and I use it pretty frequently so I don't want that to be like messed up. Thanks in advance for any replies.
With regards to insurance if your on about your carrier then you just flash back to the original ROM, with regards to MMS issues i'm baffled as it's simple to set up and with thousands on thousands of users with no issues there seems to be a small ammount of users with issues, you can set up automatically via connection setup or even input all the info manually if you wish.
The ammount of extra you get with WM6.1 i bet that once flashed you will never want to see WM6 anywhere... And if not you just flash back to stock ROM.

Second, The phone companies don't like it when you install unofficial roms on their phones, you can also find an official rom in the forum to place in your phone later if needed.
Third, some problems happen to some phones,it doesn't mean that you'll have the mms problem, but let me tell you something about this forum, we have the coolest people and they'll always help you when you need it. specially Stylez.

Hi Hdubli, can I have download link please,
http://hidemyass.com/files/xv4GF/ there you can download build 28008 for E100.
The flash for me was alright. Some notes though: the setup of Windows isn't working 100%, it seems to freeze at some point and a dropdownbox wasn't clearly shown. Also, the screen isn't used 100%: pixels at the side aren't used. Also, there seems to be a margin for the letters, as some letters at the edge (still in the active area though) seem to fall off.
edit: seems like something went wrong. I get the top bar showing the icons, but the yellow/orange Windows logo doesn't disappear. Have to do a hard reset I guess.
edit2: did a hard reset and this time I disconnected the phone from computer. Everything worked fine now, except that the outside pixels (about 5 on each side) are still not used. But the dropdownboxes all showed alright and it booted alright and installed extrom alright . Sry for the confusion, very good job on the ROM! Will test some more .

To correctly have a good "start" after first rebbot, keep pda disconnetcted from everything.
After calibrate screen, extrom install all the cabs in the rom and after reboot it works good everything.
Keep in kind that the rom is tested (in italian) for 3 weeks withou any problems, let us know if need help.

Everything works fine for me too now. Thank you for the ROM, great job. Love the new build, it's much finger friendlier!

Hmm there is a problem with ActiveSync: the device doesn't always want to connect. The computer says it is not connected, but the device says it is. After some time or after trying to disconnect, the device just freezes. Annoying .
edit:.
Man hate this. It's really the device, tried 3 computers and they all refuse the connection. They say connecting and then disconnected, while the device thinks it's connected. Really odd, as it worked flawlessly before! Did a clean install and still not working!

Bro, this is bug issue, never flash your ROM before you ensure you get your original WWE ROM as default.....
Most importan part, no one is response when my first post, and "they" always told to "flash it, any problem is advise". <--- this part is very funny.
Not sure what you mean calvin, but anyway I reflashed with this custom ROM and it works again. No clue what changed, as a clean boot didn't help. But I'm happy again. And in case something happens, I still have the original ROM so not much risk for me.
edit: ooh no not again. After the first night, it was screwed again. Can't connect anymore :S. Hmm maybe I should go back to default then

Are You using Xp, Vista or else?
Can You check if ActiveSYnc is disconnected when screen goes black (timeout on backlight)? Don't let that Windows Mobile adjust backlight but set it!
In my case never found this kind of problem, but I see in various forum that 6.5 build in some case goes with this problem, for example I got that situation with Vista and with original rom 21840 build.
Apologies for the slightly off topic post, but I don't suppose you guys know of any updated ROMs for the beTouch E200 do you? Would like to get an updated version of WM6.5 on this thing...
The problem is that the computer (tried both Vista and Windows 7) doesn’t connect, while the device says it is connected. Then nothing happens, except that the device freezes after some time or says that any program I want to run isn’t a valid PPC application :S. After a reset everything is fine again, except that I can’t use activesync. This both happens with USB and Bluetooth connection. The connection is also lost when I power off the phone manually. But that rarely happens: it always freezes before I even get to that point and then it doesn’t respond to anything.
Also, when I unplug the device before it freezes, I get an ARM error saying I need to go to some specific memory address or ARM will break. If I go to that address, the phone freezes with screen off, if I let the ARM break (what the...?!) it freezes with screen on .
I just flashed back to original ROM. The first sync is alright. If it stays alright, then definitely the custom ROM can be 'blamed'. If no further is heard, then everything is fine again with original ROM.

Tilt2 tethering help

HI im having some very big problems with my tilt2. I can teather it fine but for some reason after a day or two i get the remote party has ended the connection, and no matter what i do to it, weather it be uninstall the script and speed patch and reinstall it, it wont help. so i have to format the phone and load it all over again and it works fine for about 2 days tops. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening? I seem to be formatting this phone every 2 days just to get it to teather.
i had the same thing happen to my kaiser with the stock att rom what i did was flash the rom and radio. after that problem was gone never happened again. you can also try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538874
i don't know if this is of any help to you. After you get the error message can you still connect with active sync?
nope
after the errormessage i cant connect on the internet at all, i have to formatt the phone and reload everything to get it to work again
Rom and radio
What rom and radio do you reccomend for the tilt2 thats stable
i remember getting that error on my blackjack, it was mostly because i let it idle and data disconnects when not in use. its not like its a stable connection. if you wanted that you buy the crappy little usb card.

if you're new to flashing i suggest you go here first http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 it helped me out alot
Possible solution
The above mentioned "idle" problem is more than likely your culprit. I had a similar problem as well with the stock ROM. I suggest using NRG's Leo ROM to fix this problem. There are other solutions, but they are pretty tech savvy ones. Plus, if you haven't flashed your ROM yet, dude, you don't know what you're missing. The whole reason we're here is to push our phone's to the limit as far as functionality is concerned. Stock ROM's don't even cut it. Give a new one a whirl, I promise you won't be disappointed, plus, your reformatting issue will be gone as well, just a heads up from someone who's been around, you know?

For the Tilt2 you'll want to use the enablerapinew.cab file in the Hard SPL thread.
