Hi, i have a Blue Angel as Siemens SX66 named.
Anyway, 2 years ago i broke my touch screen, 1 year later i changed it, it was barely working, i was have to touch 2-3 pixel up.
Now i have a Toshiba G900 today i remembered i have an old blue angel, its still barely working so i want to use it.
what can i do whit it ? it could be experimental thing such as quake pocket server, file server, home remote control etc.
can anyone suggest something, it could be mod, hack etc..
By the way, Keypad locked and i cant unlock it, hmm is there any other way to unlock it over computer ?
thankss
have you reset the BA - changing the 2/3 options, on the 4 colour screen?
have you reset the BA - changing the 2/3 options, on the 4 colour screen?
this should reset to factory default, (remove sd card if inserted!/?)
have you tried upgrading / installing a rom = ?
can you active sync ?
have you read the WIKI - I assume you know about pre-pay / post/pay !
If It works I have a LCD at home; unused because ordered wrong one. This one is Sony.

Hello,
is there a way to use the BA with the keyboard without using the touch screen. My screen is cracked & not working it's slowing the whole system & sometimes make it to freez i'm using the keyboard (tab, arrows enter)
Any help will be more than appreciated...
Hey - you can use the keyboard and the up/down/left/right rocker, OK button, and Start button to do almost anything.
You will not be able to set alarms.
You will not be able to use Garmin's Que software...
You will not be able to do... well... lots of stuff unfortunately.
I delt with the same problem for about 3 days before I got the replacement.
Hope you've got the insurance plan - for $50 I got a new BA, the Audiovox WITH the Camera (YAY!) And a whole new set of accessories - brand new unit with everything that came in the box.
Heck... I even got another battery - so now I've got 2 regular ones.
For $50 I got a good deal on duplicate accessories
There might be a way to do some of the stuff, but Tab only gets you to certain menus.... I couldn't get it to reset the alarms.
But you CAN get it to change the time on your device... so if you DO have an alarm set you can change the time so that the time the alarm is set for goes off at the correct time (I was off an hour and lost a bit of sleep <_< )
Don't forget your tab button though It's a god send.
I had dropped my XDA 2s, and cracked my screen. I too tried to use it without replacement, but its just not practicable, so I went to the repair shop and got me a new screen. That's the only way, unfortunately
Need help...after 7 months of trouble free use my Orbit has suddenly died. It basically started last week where the phone would for no reason at all soft reset itself. After it booted up the clock would go back to its original setting back in 2006 & had to be adjusted again. The soft reset would happen without any pattern e.g. when I push the talk button when call comes through, when I try to open a program or even just pressing a button to wake it up from standby.
Anyway yesterday it did the same thing but this time it boots up to the O2 splash screen i.e. the blue screen with the picture of the glass building, & then just remains there with the backlight still on. I've resorted to a hard reset but again it will only boot up to the blue screen.
Any ideas?

I'm having a similar problem and I have posted my symptoms here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344335) , though I never overclock my orbit before. ANyone have any solutions? Thanks in advance
Since yesterday and suddenly my handset (XDA Orbit) can´t work. The reason is that a white screen has appear, with the red led switched on, on the top of the PDA and the vibration activated (This 3 elements appear at same time, together).
It was running under WM6. I tryed hard-reset with any result because at a low time this 3 elements appear and only stopped when I take of the battery.
Any one knows what is happening???
Any solution???
Thanks!!!
Seems like a hardware fault..... you should contact the supplier
sounds almost like my problem. I will ship mine in.
This is why I'm looking for the original ROM.
Do you use the original ROM?
This is why a opened a new thread and asked for it.
White screen..... I have that too!!
I reinstalled the original rom and it seems to be fine.
Hi my P3300 ( artemis) has suddenly startet to freze and or turn it self off, only thing that helps is to take out and replace the battery, i have read all topics i could find with simmilar problems, and i was hopping it was my battery that was going old so i bought a new one, but it didnt help.
i have tried diffrent roms wont help,
i tried to "push" the battery closer to the conectors, no help and it's seems like its hard or software problem but not battery.
some times when i turn the device back on with out replacing battery it works but sometimes when i do like that it gets to HTC page showing rom info etc. then it fades out and i can see blackscreen but it "glows" and the phone is dead nothing works.
i chaged the screen a couple of months ago but the fault dosent seems to have with the screen to do.
It seems that it is a hardware issue. They replaced motherboard for me, it is working now.
hmmm i have no warenty left. and my phone does look used so i guess im screwd?
sorry for that..
an issue happened with me witha nokia mobile before and when i sent it to be fixed they told me there was a problem in the radio chip or something like that..
so try to install a different radio ROM ... that's all i can think of.
and sorry for your loss
i will try that, but the problem ocured before i change radio last time....
hmmm
I changed back to original HTC wm 6 (swedish) yesterday and the phone worked all day, and i thought i have solved my problem, but whilst driving my car for about 15 min and the phone was in placed in the a space in the middle of the dashboard under the stereo i found out when i toke it back up to call that it was dead......so i was wondering could it have something to do with heat or lost GSM coverage (thinking i have multiple faults on my artemis)
htc arte100 freezes on startup
can any one give solution for my arte100 it freezes on startup
how can i restore or put it on bootloader mode in order to upgrade it
thanks in advance
for the boot loader see the WIKI
if your device is unlock flash it with any rim you want.. if not get the original ROM for your mobile and then flash it..
for flashing try using RUU or the SD card flashing..
all can be found on the WIKI
totally dead
now i cant start it again its dead as it can be?! i tried to have it with out battery over night, with battery and usb cable over nigt, old and new battery, usb from pc or from orginal AC adapter or waths it called.
it dosent light the "loding battery led" or nothing, i tried with sim in sd card out, sim AND sd out or both in nothing work i have open it and blew away all dust still dead?!
something i forgott to try?! or is this expencive toy gonna be a toy for my 8 month old kid?
Artemis goes Dead
I'm having the same problem, and have worked the same solutions. I noticed this started when I also had my phone underneath the radio in my car.
Replace radio rom
Upgraded rom to 6.1
New Battery
Unlocked Phone
Last attempt was uploading active sync 4.5 since loading version 6.1
I've got no solution yet, just posting to let you know we are in the same situation.
I have read about similar problems in different forums, and the conclusion is that it's a hardware issue. When I sent it in for support, they replaced the motherboard. I guess, there is something smaller wrong but they just replace it all.
No way.
Replaced battery, took out SIM and SD, changed ROM (finally it was long enough at life), but still:
Display freezes, turns white - game over.
I give up.
Until a few days ago I was very happy with HTC and my Artemis.
Artemis 110 (T-Mobile Compact iii) Back from the Dead
Artemis 110 (T-Mobile Compact iii) Back from the Dead, Flash via Active Sync then via SD Artemis
Since the XDA site is so valuable, I’m trying to consolidate my efforts to make a legitimate contribution to the site. Hopefully this post can also be of help to others.
These are just notes on what I’ve been through so far with my Mobile Compact iii. Hopefully, someone more advanced than I, will read through and possibly troubleshoot the errors I may have overlooked.
Upon returning from Germany, I needed to re-flash my ROM with an English version. Version of choice was the Blue & Black cube with WM6, thanks to the developer(s).
BLACK & BLUE v5.0 ROM WM6.1 CE OS 19716 ( Build 19716.1.1.0 )
First I used the USPL to temp unlock the phone
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
I then loaded the Operating Version, and received many stalls and stops via the White Screen of Death. (I have some theories on the white screen of death, but do not have the knowledge to confirm) I suspect utilities are running in the background and are being loaded. Impatience at this point could quite possibly be my nemesis
Second, I loaded the unlock to permanently unlock the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400445
I re-flashed my ROM again the B&B cube. Still the phone seemed unstable, was shutting down and getting the white screen of death. I hard booted the phone many times, soft booted, battery out, and through no tangible reason of thought, the phone just did what it wanted to. Start, not start, and hung up at various points in the boot process, died in the middle of Wal-Mart.
I tried the over-clock on WM6, using WM5 over-clocking. Talk about unstable. I couldn’t find and over-clock for WM6, but now know it is an option in the Blue and Black Rom. Anyway my phone went out completely. To the point of not being able to get past the initial flash screen where the OS and IS version displayed and that was it. Left the phone overnight, nothing.
In a last attempt, I used the SD mini flash option found in WIKI.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_SD_Card_Flashing
I used my printer SD card reader and the adapter supplied with the SD mini card. Home PC recognized the storage device, right click and format, then did the rename file (NBH file to ARTEIMG.nbh) as found on the WIKI SD Flash page. I initially tried without the format, and only got to the Red Green Blue (RGB) screen. Since I received no indication of status, I started over, formatted the mini SD, extracted the file to the SD, renamed, to ARTEIMG.nbh and I also extracted the B&B Cube WM6 Rom to the SD mini, for I found a couple of post indicating the ROM also needed to be on the SD. I followed the instructions, did the Boot-loader. (Power Button, Voice Button, and Rest with Stylus, release stylus, continue holding Power and Voice until upload prompt on the phone). I received the Update SD image, and followed the instructions. Here I got the prompts indicating status of uploads. OS 1 started to load, OS 2 loaded, phone when to RGB screen. I left the phone alone for 30 minutes at the RBG screen.
After 30 minutes, I rebooted the phone, and the phone went through setup and auto-detected my current carrier SIM card. Has been working for the past hour and 20 minutes.
Since the phone is running at the moment, I will wait and see. Next step is to load the original WM5 T-mobile version via active sync. If downloaded from the t-mobile site, the ROM update isn’t broken down enough to rename the NNBH file..
I’m also waiting to load a new radio version, for I’ve read that may be the cause of some of my problems.
Another theory I have is that T-mobile sent out kill phone code to stop my phone.
Any feedback from the Pros is very appreciated.
I have the same problem: Link to other thread
Apparently there are many devices with the same (more or less) problem.
I hope someone is able to tell what is malfunctioning....
hopefully my lurking in the ba forums makes a meaningful contribution.
well i have a few noob questions.
1. my ba keeps going to the four color bootloader screen and wont turn on it sometimes boots though.
2. to flash a custom rom do i need "hard spl" or the like for the ba.
3. where is the camera located? for the life of me i cant find it. maybe i got a model with out the camera.
those questions are not that nooby and looking at your post count i assume, you generally know your way around windows mobile devices.
1. the 4 colour screen - in contrast to popular belief - has nothing to do with the bootloader, because the blueangel's bootloader is a grey screen without backlight, showing Serial V2.0x and is meant for opening locked ports to be able to access the rom memory to flash roms there.
the 4 color screen is the boot screen and it can show you different things:
when you hard reset your device you will see that screen and use the menu to set what to reset, but i guess that is not the one, you are stuck at.
there are one and a half way to soft reset a blueangel:
- you can unlock/lock the battery compartment
- you can press the reset pin near the mic and the charger
in wm2003 there was no difference between those two methods, but beginning with wm5 i highly recommend proper resetting through the pin hole, because removing the battery causes the device to start without radio, or, depending on the rom, don't start at all. that is my guess how you got stuck there, you have to have a look at the numbers in the bottom right corner. if it shows R: NONE, G: NONE, you have to reset again.
2. fortunately, there is nothing like soft spl or hard spl needed for the blueangel. the only things needed for upgrading are a proper RUU and to put the device into bootloader mode. that bypasses any limitations. a detailed tutorial on how to upgrade from scratch, with all the download links is to be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4706441&postcount=2
3. the camera is located on the back, right above the battery, it consists of 2 circles, one is a mirror and one is the actual camera. there are also models without camera. also, if the lower button on the left side of the device is a windows media button instead of a camera button, that would be an indicator, that your device does not have the vga camera (which is lousy anyways )

thanks chef tony you are the best. thanks for telling me that it is normal for the device to start with out the radio because that was making me worried.
yep my device does not have a camera
on upgrading do i have to super cid or cid unlock or can i already flash any rom radio?
oh, i forgot about that part, the cid unlock is also not needed, maybe you'd want to sim unlock your device, but that is done through a simple exe. i uploaded it for you here: http://rapidshare.com/files/332241357/xdadev_all_unlock-v1.6_138.exe.zip
and yes, you can flash any radio, just remember to take out the sd card and the sim card
well thanks for all of your help. i have one more question though. does the radio rom decide weather or not your wifi card supports wpa2 or hardware decide?
nope, the wifi only supports wlan B 11mbit wep and wpa-psk, no wpa-aes or wpa, also nor 54mbit wlan G, basicly the radio influences nothing but the speech quality.

actually i found out that the problem was that i was running wm 6 and wm6 does not support my encryption level that i was using but now i am running 6.1 so all is good.
one more question. when i am incall can i use my blue angel as a speaker phone? i am not seeing an option with my dialer. is this a dialer problem or does the blue angel just not support speaker phone?
some roms/dialer skins have a speaker phone button, but with any rom pressing and holding the green phone hardware button should do the trick.
