Ipaq rx1950 boot problem, probably rom - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Today I tried to hard reset my hp ipaq rx1950, so I search on the internet for the combination to reset it and i try to reset.
The device rebooted but something strange happens. At the end of the booting, when usually the operating system starts up, the boots stops. (I have wm5). It stops exactly at the end of the booting, when the status bar of the boot is completely filled. The hardware works but it can't enter in the os.
Someone can tell me what is happened and a solution to fix it?
Thanks and sorry for my bad english..

Nobody can help me?

I change my question.. Does anyone own or know how to obtain a rom for the ipaq rx1950 so i can reflash it from the sd via bootloader?

I have rx1950, but it in KOREAN, i can flash to change it to ENGLISh, because hpRUU can not detect model ID.
I search around the internet, but no solution...
Can I backup it, cook rom, then reflash?

Maybe you can..
Using mtty, and putting ipaq in bootloader mode (Contacts + Mail + Reset for as long as your PDA boots). Connect the ipaq to pc and open mtty (you also have to kill activesync process from the task manager, the process is something abount wcecommon.exe), then select "USB" and click ok.. Press enter until USB> appear. Insert a free sd card in your ipaq and type in mtty "r2sd", it will copy your rom to the sd card. after that i don't know how to continue to change language, but i hope you will share you rom with me so i can reflash my ipaq.

I downloaded the ROM from HP.com
Link is here: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=PSG_I23197-108135
I'd like to ask about your flash method?
what is mtty?
My ROM is Korean, so that I think you can not using it, let try the link above!
Thank you!

I need the nb0 file, not the upgrade.. I need a rom exctracted from an ipaq rx1950, the upgrade you have linked is installable only via activesync, but i can't connect the ipaq to pc via activesync if it don't boot up the os..
If you have the nb0 file to boot the os via sd card, i'll use it. No matter if it is korean..
Mtty is a software that enable you to flash the ipaq without booting it, but i need the rom to do it..

hi guys,
same problem here (italian language) i read somewhere that we could extract the .nb0 from the .nbk file that is in the official hp upgrade but i don't know if it could work with the ipaq 1950 and of course i don't know how to do that. it's something about deleting the first 64 bytes of the file with an hex editor, i tried it but it didn't work for me. i hope it can help you and i hope then you can help me!
bye

How can i get the nb0 from my rx1950? (I'm newbie in PDA ^^)

I think you can't. we need to extract the image from the .nbf file -CEOS.nbf in my case- but i have no idea how we can do it. I saw another thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-301856.html) about this issue, i'll try to work on it, but i'm definitively not a an expert in such things. If i have good news, i'll tell you on this thread.
if you find another solution let me know!
bye!

Does anyone know how many bytes i have to remove to make the nb0 or nbf file work?

not yet, i've read in some thread 32 but i'm not sure. have you seen this? http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=243857
it seems it worked for some people, however it didn't for me.

chris malone universal bootloader removes the first 3690 bytes of the CEOS.nbf. now i can't try that file on a sd card, but i'll let you know. bye

trying to flash the rom by sd i get the message "wrong image", also when the bootloader tool tries to flash the rom by mtty the program stops and i have to kill it..

Could someone extract the rom from one working rx1950?
The procedure is the following..
-Download mtty from this link
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/mtty.exe
-connect the ipaq rx1950 to the pc with the serial cable and insert an sd in the ipaq
-Put rx1950 in bootloader mode: Contacts + Mail + Reset for as long as your PDA boots (it will be a white screen)
-Execute mtty
-Where there is written "COMX" (X is a number) select usb or something that is not like "COMX"..
-in the window that pops up press enter until USB> prompt appear
-Now type: r2sd and wait till the ipaq completes the backup..
So you now have a backup of your rom that you can use to restore the os..
Than upload this rom to rapidshare or mediafire or megaupload or another hosting site and give me the link to download..
Thank you so much

Nobody can upload his ipaq rx1950 rom?? please

try to ask someone who's selling a used 1950 on ebay, if you're lucky... Unfortunately for me, i need the italian version of the rom, because i think the english one won't work and nobody is selling an italian 1950. however if you find it please let me know.
good luck

I'm italian too smuzz, but i think that there is no problem in installing an english rom..However i wont buy an used ipaq.. I will wait for the htc dream and i will buy it. I only want to find a way to fix my rom..
Sono italiano smuzz, ma credo che non ci sia problema ad installare una rom inglese.. Comunque non credo di prendere un ipaq usato.. Ormai aspetto l'htc dream e lo prendo.. volevo solo rimetterlo in funzione..

I want to fix my ipaq too, I was just suggesting how to find another 1950 user to ask them to extract the rom. I posted in other forums but I received no answers, so I think it's a little bit hard to find them... Just a question: how much money HP want to fix it? if you have asked them, of course..

Sorry, i don't know..
Now i hope that there is someone who could share his rx1950 rom..

Its easy
Format the SD put there the .nbh and the sspl trin.exe, then execute the exe and starts alone the rom instalation.

Somone can suggest me the correct name? or do i need to push a combination of buttons?

isn't easier to buy a usb wire?
Sorry, I wouldn't like to be rude, but I think that this will be the easiest option.
The device is not mine,so I will not bother buying cables.
UPDATE: I have flashed the device,but unfortunately is doesn't boot quiete well.. even the Upgrade procedure is OK.
after the 2nd boot logo,it stucks with white screen.
Led is blinking to indicate the GSM signal and charging-full.
I've tried to reflash another time and it is the same.
Tomorrow I will try another Rom version (was ING Rom 2.28 WM6) now is quiete late and I'm tired-depressed (lol).
News: I upgraded with SSPL via SD with 2.01 rom successfully.
Don't know why the previous didn't worked.

i have a similar problem with a dead O2 XDA Zinc...where do i get the abi file or can i make one from the wm6 upgrade file (Xda_Zinc_RM3070712_WWE_ExtV2.8.0.exe) that i download from the official website
the abi file can be found inside the exe but i dunno how can u extract it since if u use any extractor it will not give u the abi file ... also if u hv the raw rom & want to extract the rom also u will hv difficulty in extracting it
that is the problem that i am facing now
you can extract abi file from Xda_Zinc_RM3070712_WWE_ExtV2.8.0.exe by
1. connect o2 zinc with usb
2. flash your o2 zinc by exe file
3. when complete flash don't push finish button
4. select to view hidden files in folder that you put exe file
5. finally you will see marsii_g4.abi
goodluck & sorry my bad english

reset meaning soft or hard reset?
hard reset or soft reset both does not do any good to remove the error message "unble to open the registry key" and to just reload the orginal applications and remove the others
ehmmm ... sad to say maybe u hv to flash the rom
how do i flash the rom?
download the official rom from seeo2 and then make sure ur dev is fully charged ... sync it wz ur pc using active sync then execute the rom (.exe file u hv downloaded)
good luck
Hi guys,
I've already upgraded to WM6 for my Zinc, but I'd like to have an original ROM in case I need to flash back when something's wrong. I checked seeo2 but I can't find it.
Pls tell me where I can find this original ROM (WWE) ???

You mean the WM5 ROM on seeo2? It's still an upgrade ROM, not the original that comes along with the device at the beginning.
Anyway, I'm a newbie so please advice how to 'downgrade' from WM6 to WM5? Is this similar to the process upgrading from WM5 to WM6 (you just sync the device with PC, run the .exe file on the PC and let it go)?
If it's not, please kindly give me detail instruction
Many thanks

Another Rom for Artemis italian user.
This is a new way of install ROM and can be installed ONLY if you have a Micro SD with almost 30 Mb free space.
In Rar archivie there is the nbh file (the Rom) and a file called "Setup".
1. Copy file "Setup" in your SD
2. Flash the rom (remember you must have SPL unlocked).
Don't delete Setup from SD: it's impostant if you make Hard Reset.

P3300
My HTC3300 was dead, only can load into Three-color Mode with USB avaliable. I tried all kind of RUUs, including the Original ROMs(English, French, Deustch....)and the newest version , all report ERROR[300]invalid update tool. then the screen of phone stayed in 0% and RUU tool exit only...
IPL 1.27.0001
SPL 1.11.0000 (used the USPL to unlock CID before)
Before Bricked, I successfully updated many versions of ROM, and the last operation is WM6.1.
I'have try this with MTTY:
Cmd> set 32
Cmd> password BsaD5SeoA
Cmd> ruurun 0
Cmd> ResetDevice
But Doesn't work!
because of you!
My phone was perfect before and I have installed your BigiX.
What I have to do? Can U help me?
I can donete some money... pls... help me....
My dear friend,this is an old rom.
But this is not the reason of your problem.
I don't know if MTTY works on this device, but if your screen show 3 colors you are in bootloader mode (and your SPL is 1.11.0000 as you tell, so it is good for flash any rom).
So (in teory) you can connect PPC to PC via USB and run RUU for flashing the rom you want.
In alternative you can flash original rom.
For this operation i suggest Win XP+ AS 4.5 and try to change usb cable (a new one) and usb port (another on your PC)
I hope you can resolve.
No need donate money
Thx, but are 3 days that I'm looking for solution... Lot of people have the same problem. When run RUU flashing after 3 colors bar, the phone start to flashing but is stopping at 0% and the software report ERROR[300]invalid update tool.
I can connect only with MTTY but I'm looking fore some command that can force to send RUU at the fone. For example "send" in telnet. But nobody know how to do this...
If someone have an idea, lot of people will be very very very happy!
And hope gratful
You can try with rom flash from SD card...
Are you italian??
You can found all the info in this website -> Clic here!!!
Yes, I'm Italian.
I'll post this question to that site.
But I think that is possible to force installation of RUU with MTTY.
My problem is that when I have used start_uspl.exe at blank screen was blocked and I have removed battery.
After this my phone is blocked with 3 colors bar and when I try to update, it start but only at 0%
I need to know all MTTY commands
I don't know if MTTY work with P3300, try with the flash from the SD card directly from the device...
This is the link of the discussion...... Click here!!!
Try don't cost anything....
obviously I have try a lot of times... But doesn't work!
I have try to rename in ARTEIMG.nbh and in a lot of different name but when I powe the phone it say Checking SD contents but nothing happen....
I would like to find a command to force reading of SD and writing to the Phone... but I think is not easy...
Thanks whatever....
Do you try with another SD card?
This procedure is the same that the HTC Service use for repair the HTC device...
Try with another SD card... I have a Kingston 2Gbyte and it work very fine!
I hope your Artemis revive very soon!
I have only 2 SanDisk SD cards. One of 128Mb and one of 2GB.
I have tryed with both. With Fat16 and Fat32 but nothing happen...
Sorry for your problems Pinco, I don't have a solution for that but i can strongly recommend another ROM from the great BigX, the one you can see in my signature. OS core seems to be more recent and ROM's almost perfect If you don't have any specific need to use the 2.0, go for Blue-X!

Try a soft-reset first.
If not, you may have to hard-reset. You will lose all your data and programs you've installed and it will revert to factory state (or last flashed ROM).

My FSC-n560 is bricked. Help please!

Hi!
I was using Newplow's WM6 038 ROM with my N560.
Yesterday I tried to write another ROM(WM6 038 with 8MB pagepool) but during update got an error.. It said it just failed.
Now my N560 is stuck on booting screen(people climbing mountain..)
I tried Warm, Cold, Hard reset but with no luck.
Even the power button doesn't work so I had to remove battery. When I insert battery it powers on by itself.
I can enter bootloader screen by pushing power+record button so I tried to copy rom image file to SD card but it doesn't work.
I tried two ROMs(OS_213U.nbf from Original WM5 ROM and Newplow's) and 3 SD Cards(2GB SD, 1GB MicroSD with Adopter, 16GB SDHC)
Is there any recovery tutorial in bootloader mode?
Help me please!
Sorry for my English.
Have you tried flashing a ROM through the computer rather than the memory card? Try going into bootloader and flashing that way rather than the card.
The pagepool ROM is meant for N560s that have been upgraded to 128Mb RAM... have you upgraded the internal RAM to 128Mb? If you have not, then this may have caused your problem.
I had this problem when flashing to 038 normal RAM (from 035). A hard reset reset to the normal start screen, but nothing worked. However, trying a new burn with the Loox flash tool restarted the process and it worked. I found the cure was to make sure you hard reset the N560 before doing a burn. It appears to be that you have to do this to release enough RAM for the burn program to reside and for "working" storage. You may not have done this.
I suggest you try simply re-running the flashtool with SD/SDHC cards removed, battery in place, on the cradle via your PC, even though it appears stuck. The signals coming from the USB link may wake up the bootloader routine in the N560?
Solved the problem! Thanks for your comments!
I asked same question in Newplow's guestbook and the person who made pagepool rom answered. I used MTTY to revive my pda.
What I did is in below post. need translation
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=55274
Hi all,
I have the same problem. N560 is stick on the himalaya picture. I tried to falsh from WM5 to new rom for Wm6 and after installation the pda stuked. So I did a warm reset and now only the start picture is apperaing. Problem is that battery is down now.
Can someone give more info on the process followed to revive the PDA ? I just cannont read russian (may be Jinsu77 ?)
Many thanks for support in advance
same problem here please please please someone help us
the only thing i can do is the l c:\os_213u.nbf on mtty program and nothing else happend to the machine
sorry for my english
read, and pay attention here:
[email protected]@p://a.mod-site.net/gb/u/newplow-1.html

It was me asking on Newplow's guestbook.
In case you're using Vista, you need some trick to be able to rom update. Read below.
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...u-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/
And then you need to download MTTY (I used version 1.42, got it by googling) and follow below steps.
(used google translation from 4pda.ru)
------------------------------------------------------------
For rom update without ActiveSync.
1) take this set of extract, copy it to the folder with the firmware.
2) copy the file os_213u.nbf example in C: \
3) You press the button Recorder + food and poke in the hole reset (Recorder button and hold until you eat dolphins)
4) plug the device to a PC, the Task Manager, shooting process - wcescomm.exe
5) Run mtty, choose Port: USB, connect.
6) If mtty caused an error and shut down, simply restart mtty, if not typed commands, then repeat the procedure with paragraph 3.
7) in mtty command, enter: (first letter in kommande - a little l l от слова from the word L L oad)
> l l c:\os_213u.nbf c: \ os_213u.nbf
Since the end of the process will be an inscription about the error, remove the device from the PC.
9) Run rom update, zhmete "next", until you see dolphins.
10), plug the device to a PC and program.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps you all
in advance sorry for my english
I am doing all the instructions carefully and the mtty show this

the pda shos the dolphins and the full blue bar
after without change anything i run the PocketLOOX5xxFlashTool that i have in the same folder with the :

have you closed EVERY process of activesync before proceding with mtty?
I close the wcescomm.exe and the rapimgr.exe is there anything else?
The pocket LOOX 5xx FlashTool cant connect with the N560 and at the and says that Error"The language in this Flash Image update (ENGLISH) differs from that on your device()!" and i have always english rom exept maybe from the last rom "the killer" with the 128MB rom that i dont know if it is an english or something else because the device never opens to see
After flashing in MTTY(don't care about error messages), you need to unplug your n560 from PC. And then proceed romupdate until you see the dolphin picture. Now you plug n560 to PC and cilck next and wait for a while.. Hope it works!
I change the language of the rom and it works
thank very much all of you
At all they have Probs with flash from SD Card: only use a Card with 512MB! I think a Card greater then can't read by the Bootloader....
hey.
i am compeletly new here. I have the same with my n560. I tried to upgrade to 128mb but after restart I see only climbing. I tried everything here but on dolphins afterr line is blue it is finished. that I am unpluging device. starting looxflastool for 560 and first is trying to connect by active sync and that when no connection made I see dolphins on left screen of flash tool window. than I am pluging again and after couple secs I see that: Error"The language in this Flash Image update (ENGLISH) differs from that on your device.

You can usually get back to the boot loader if you do a hard reset. I am sure you know how, if not you will find it in the FSC CDROM manual that came with the device. Let us know if this works? I have got stuck at this point too, so I know it works..... hopefully!
