let me explain what happened my roomate gave me a sd card with tom tom 6. He has a mogul, dont know where he got the software so I inserted this card on my 8525 and it installed automaticaly it worked fine the first time with my keychain gps receiver theN I had one of those winmo crashes so I soft reseted my phone after that tried tom tom again it would not conect to the receiver no mater what I did. I supposed it would be just a ttom issue but I was wrong it would not work with google maps or live search I never had this problem before then I hid the tom tom files so it would not instal itself hard reseted.. bum back to normal gmaps and live search work again the next time I soft reset the same problem reapears doesnt work any more so I asumed if I flashed a diferent rom the problem would completely desapear but I was wrong. it works the first time after the first soft reset it doesnt work any more Im thinking about trowing this **** away have been flashing roms like crazy, not paying atention in class, not doing my homework,Im getting sick and not solbing my problem. are the bluetooth drivers ruined? i do not understand this issue.

topic title kinda gives you an idea of what im on about, no? ill explane...
its looks good, verry good in black (O2 XDAIIs) but it dont work propperly.
now im shure the HW is good, but the crap Microsoft put on there is a big let down.
im no expert on SW, im just a plane old end user and im not happy
how can the XDAII work 100% (for me) but the XDAIIs not ?
for example. i had tomtom3 on the xda2 for months, not one, i say not one problem.
but after finaly getting it to run on the xda2s it worked ONCE but no more.
the timer comes up for a few seconds then tomtom flashes up at the title bar
then "puff" its gone ?
goto "running programs" in the memory manager thingy and its not there.
the xda2s slows down nealy ALL the time to a crawl so much so that
i lost count of the resets i have done in the 2 days i had it for.
i even had to do a hard reset this morning thinking that may help.
sorry guys i think i will give it a few more days (ive got 14 home aprovel) then i will send it back.
maybe whate for the xda3 (will it have wifi?)
the MAIN reason i got the xda2s was the WIFI, i would get a SD, WIFI card but i keep my tomtom maps on the SD card so i would need
a SD card WiFi with memory on it :S
is there such a thing, or better still a GPS/WIFI/MEMORY SD card ?
(pushing it there i think lol)
oh well, the looking forward to the XDA2s was better than haveing it (so far)

Interesting. I was getting this exact problem on my XDA II when I first tried to use it a couple of days ago. Worked fine in the house as I was playing with it (new toy ) but as soon as we went out in the car it stopped with the same symptoms you describe.
In the end I hard-reset my XDA II and it seems to be fine now.
The first time I installed the TomTom software I used the default (non Win SE) disk, but second time I used the 'Update' disc. Perhaps the update disc is better for Win2k Phone Edition devices...
i'm new to the pocket pc arena and was looking forward to *using* my new xda iis... i'm now *working* with my xda iis, trying to make it reliable and actually useful.
when i first got it, it ran a movie for 2.5 hours perfectly while on my train journey, syncronised my files perfectly, except it refuses to backup my text messages (a feature, not a bug apparently) and redraws the interface and programs very very s l o w l y.
i was appalled that they'd even release this half-finshed software. And am now looking for a newer/better/faster ROM... Might as well use a pencil and paper.
Hi I have had this phone for just over a month and sometimes when it rings I can press a key to answer it but sometimes it will not respond. I have tried using both hard keys and the screen buttons but it won't answer the call! Sometimes it then launches co pilot instead! I have tried a soft reset but it has not worked. It is on o2 and I have tried thier data support but they are USELESS!!! all they offered was to send it off for repair (which will take two weeks!) any advice greatfully recieved.
Do a hard reset - look in the manual or wiki on how to. Something has got corrupted and this is the best way to fix. Backup you data and pim first.
Software conflict for artemis using co pilot
Hi, i tried taking out the sd card and removing the co pilot software from the phone. I then tried ringing the phone. It worked fine so I have reinstalled the co pilot and will see if it works OK over the next few days. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what causes it? cause I want to stop it happening again. Is it corruption or software conflict?
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?

hey this has happened to me also!
from a similar and different problem.
at first, after a hard reset, the gps doesnt work well also it keeps searching until failed for several times. then i go for quick gps. wa-la there you go! then after i got the gps signal, the quick gps app said the data is expired so i had to download again and i did. after i finished downloading, the gps signal vanished completely.
for 2 days i tried to get the gps signal but it always failed miserably.
then on weekend, i`went to the hills, in one of the restaurant there i tried the gps again, and in just 3 seconds i got the signal!!! when i went back home, the gps has worked again until now.
i still dont know what exactly happen thou, but it might help to go to a higher ground to find a fix.
Try download the NEW version 3.2.0 Google Map at m.google.com from you device.
Choose Google Map. Download it and install... Give it a try~
Or check if you have FM Radio installed. If you have it, uninstall it and try again
Thanks For the replys i really appreciate them..
i installed new version of google maps
3.2.0 at least now it shows my location
within 80 meters.. before was within 200...
but still keep saying seeking GPS satellites..
about the FM radio.. that came installed with the phone..
so i dont think i can unistalled it...
thanks any ways..
