Dear all,
I just got my imate jam (sold in Telstra shop in Australia) on last Friday, yesterday, I tried to upgrade the ROM as followed the instructions from http://www.clubimate.com/.
As imate jam has only one USB port which is connected to PC (Microsoft Active Sync 3.8) and there is no cradle, only 30s after I tried to update the ROM, then the USB is disconnected suddenly, and after that my Imate Jam has a black screen (it's like the backlight has been set to the lowest setting). I can see the word Serial 1.0, and if I try to connect to the USB again, it will display USB 1.0. Nothing more than that. Soft or Hard Reset doesn't change anything
Anyone knows how to bring it back to life, otherwise, I will return to the Shop since I only bought it for 3 days, hopefully, they will give me a new unit to replace this "dead" Jam :evil:
When I did the upgrade, the battery is at 100%, so there is enough power, but I can't understand why.
The ROM & Instruction are download from the page
http://www.clubimate.com/index.asp?PageAction=JAM
I've downloaded the Generic version of the ROM with the name ma_cdlsku1_wwe_10300_143_10100_ship.exe (28 MB)
with the following information :
The details of the current ROM image (found under Start -> Settings -> Device Info):
Rom version 1.03.00 WWE
Radio version 1.01.00
ExtROM version 1.03.143 WWE (Generic)
(PS. Sorry you may not be able to see that particular page and instruction if you are not a member for that site)
Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
Cheers
Wallace
PS. One more question, how likely is it for the Imate Jam / O2 XDA2 Mini to upgrade to Windows 2005 Mobile once it is available??
You are luckily in the Bootloader mode. I crashed during my PDA2K upgrade and found settings to get it into Bootloader mode and the upgrade was able to rerun and put the ROMs back in place. Try disconnecting, rebooting your PC (start clean), then, with the Jam in Bootloader mode still, relaunch the upgrade utility. Let me know if that works.
Also, do a search here on how to get the Bootloader to launch on your JAM if you need to pull your battery and power it back up again to it.
Oops ...
I've returned my imate Jam to the shop, and for some reason, they can do a hard reset on the phone (which I tried to press the power button and the reset buttons many times before), and so the screen comes up ...
And of course I told them I lost confidence in the phone blah blah ... and I want to replace a new phone ... So now they have sent my phone back to Telstra and need the Telecom's approval for a replacement unit ...
Once they approve it (it takes a week they said), I will ask for an O2 XDAII Mini instead. As in Australia, the imate phone has been customized by Telstra so it will by default shows the ugly logo of Telstra, whereas O2 will still display O2, and it has the options to choose which provider under "programs" ...
In the first 2 days, I need to soft reset the imate jam quite a number of times, I set the password so after the phone is unused, it will be locked ... but sometimes when I tried to unlock it, I couldn't ... I mean the number pad (virtually in the screen) has no reaction when I pressed it ... so I was forced to reset the imate jam a number of times, I suspect it might be problems from Telstra's customisation to the phone, but anything can happen so I just guess ...
Hope to get a new replacement phone soon ... as I only got the phone for 3 days ...

I did the upgrade from Jasjar WWE to Dopod CHT. Here is how I did it:
1. Connect JJ to ActiveSync thru USB and wait till the sync session is completed.
2. While the sync is still active, I ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. After a few steps of checking, it will disconnect ActiveSync and put the JJ into the bootloader mode.
3. The upgrade will halt with a country code error. No upgrade has been performed yet.
4. Run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe again while the cable is still connected and JJ still in bootloader mode. I was prompted that I am upgrading from [Blank] to [NewVersionNumber]. Click "Next".
5. The ROM will be upgraded this time till it's done. It took about 20 minutes.
6. I pressed both softkeys and reset. When the reset prompt comes up, I pressed "0" to reset to default factory settings. After some booting time, JJ starts to speak Chinese.
I upgraded to Chinese ROM because the Chinese plug-in I used to use for English ROM is kind of buggy on WM5. Thanks to everyone on this forum.
There are a few things I did after I upgraded to CHT ROM:
1. Changed the system font to the more artistic Kai font (from KAIU.ttf on a Windows machine). The original system font was MingLiU, which looked kind of scrawny on a VGA screen.
2. Re-enabled ClearType for the system and PIE. For some reason, Dopod disabled ClearType settings so the user cannot turn on ClearType from the user interface. I used a registry editor and modified a few keys to get the ClearType feature back.
With the Kai font and ClearType, the screen becomes a lot more readable and very pretty! If someone is interested in step-by-step instructions, let me know, and I will post them.
By the way, I was so excited when I discovered the im.tv site actually works for me in USA. I was able to watch the TV news in Taiwan in full VGA screen.
One difference I noticed is that with the WWE ROM, I can very easily set up Bluetooth ActiveSync. With the CHT ROM, the device can only discover the serial port service on my computer, but not recognize its ActiveSync capability. If someone knows how to correct this, please let me know.
Also, in case you don't know, the keyboard mappings between WWE and CHT ROMs are slightly different. The SYM key is swapped with the ";" character, probably because SYM is hardly used in Chinese input. The shortcut "FN + ;" can toggle the English and Bomopofo modes. Note the ";" character is now on the SYM key of JASJAR.

Hi yyl :
Can you tell me how to change system front to Kai ?
Thanks
1. Copy KAIU.ttf from a Windows machine. Paste it into the Pocket PC's "Windows" directory thru ActiveSync.
2. Using a registry editor (like PHM RegEdit), BACK UP your registry first! Then go to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\FontLink\SystemLink\". Change the data of "Courier New" and "Tahoma" keys to "\windows\KAIU.ttf,DFKai-SB".
3. Soft-reset your device. Now all the Chinese characters become Kai font. It is not very smooth, because ClearType is still disabled.
4. To enable ClearType, this is how I did it. Maybe some steps are not really necessary.
5. Using the same registry editor, search for the keyword "cleartype" in all the keys and values. I found three matches. I set ClearType=1, NoClearType=0, ClearTypeText=1 respectively.
6. Soft-reset your device. You will see that the system ClearType is still disabled. Go to "Settings -> System -> Screen -> ClearType" to enable ClearType. This option was originally hidden from end users. Now it's visible. Once you check the "Enable ClearType" box, the font will immediately smooth up.
That's it. One thing worthy of note is, KAIU.ttf seems to only have traditional Chinese characters, not simplied Chinese. I am not sure.
Thanks yyl , I will try it today

Can you upload KAIU.ttf which I can't find in my window machine, Are you used Chiese window system ? mine was English + language pack
The KAIU.ttf comes with many versions of Microsoft Office of many languages. When the Asian character support is selected during installation, Office will install some extra Asian fonts for you. This is one of them.
Anyway, I uploaded this font to ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]/Universal
I don't know if this upload is appropriate. If it is not, the board moderators, please feel free to delete it. Thanks.
The principles that I outlined above should work with any TrueType Chinese font that you like.

Download "(Open_ch)UNI_DOPOD_11336_134_10402_Test.exe" from the "Universal" folder of this site (see the link in my previous post). Use Winzip to extract all the content from this EXE file into a folder on your hard drive. Place "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" into the same folder. Then perform the steps I mentioned above.
I have Modify the font to KAIU , But it does not suppurt Simpfy Chinese, it only support tradition chinese, does any font will fit Both?
I did it!

Thanks for your help! Now I did it! My mistake was that I copyed the whole exe file to the folder!
Do you guys have Wisbar Advance 2 installed? How's it work? It really slowed my system down on my previouse english ROM.

I use Magic Button to "truly" close applications. It also shows battery meter and the icons of currently running apps.

Yes, as I mentioned in one of my previous posts, KAIU.ttf seems to include only traditional Chinese. The MingLiU font that came with the Dopod ROM has both traditional and simplified. I presume there are many third-party fonts on the market that support both. Note that fonts supporting both styles tend to occupy a lot more space.
Hello friends,
I am not new but this is my first thread.
I have just bought a sim-free O2 Orbit from germany and it is working fine.
How can I turn the OS language into english? and I also get a failure connection to the internet since I arrived home in australia. it is 0x8007278.
Please the experts any advice is appreciated. thanks for sharing the science.
I was in the exact situation as you, this is how you change your ROM to English.
Get this program called USPL, it was created by a member of this bard called Bepe. Look on the first post for the program AND the instructions...read them.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
What this program does is it unlocks the phones carrier lock so that it will take a ROM that is not OEM.
Once you have this, look for the ROM you want to run, I can personally recommend Bepes WM6 or WM6 Black and Blue v3.
Bepes rom...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=309702
PDA Viet WM6 ROM (super freaking cool, way better than I thought it would be)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314568
Once you have these two things, put them all on the desktop for easy access, then run the USPL according to the instructions. You MUST have Active Sync installed, running and sync'd with your phone (plus its a great idea t have all your contacts backed up with Outlook). Once the USPL program has completed its process and the phone has restarted, you can then load any ROM you want. Simply plug in your phone via USB to your computer, then run the Rom Upgrade Utility that installs on your desktop when you download the ROM. It will show a progress bar, once you make it past 3 or 4 percent you know you are in the clear and the ROM will load right.
I cannot stress enough the importance of running USPL, if you dont you run an almost guaranteed risk of turning your phone into a cool looking paper weight.
If you follow these instructions, read a little in the Upgrading and the WM6 sections of this board, you will have an English phone in your hands by the time you go to bed tonight. Good luck and feel free to PM me if you need and help.
Oh and PS - For the data, once you have changed you ROM to English, you need to either find the settings or the CAB file for your data connection. Most of the time these can be found on your service provenders site, if not, run a search of this bard, almost anything you need - world wide - is on here somewhere.
THANK YOU Itschcase. your responce was brilliantly quick.
I was trying since yesterday. read most of the eplanatory threads. tried not to bother you again. but I am stuck at the USPL. after fist step the screen goes black or grey and the activeSync disconnects and it remains like that. if I continue the process nothing happened if I soft reset then continue I get error 270 "image file corrupted" and the pda reboots automatically and goes back to its state. tried 10 times. reinstalled my xp after formatting the computer. tried on my other computer vista . still no change.
any ideas please

Ok, let me see if i understand u correctly, your specs give me no new questions they look ok. U have WM5 and want to run a program (from your work) which needs WM6 (wont run on WM5). HTC told you about the official WM6 update. This wont flash as activesync crashes, right?
With an official Rom you will not need to unlock the CID/SPL with USPL. But this goes only when you stick to your current language. i.e. a german WM5 is not allowed to be flashed into english. To do this you will need to USPL-unlock it 1st.
If the language is the same, it should work. Best is to do a hard reset 1st (2 soft buttons and soft reset, wait and press green/send.) Afterwards hook it on the PC (activesync want to start a newe partnership, click cancel, so u will be connected as guest).
Start the rom upgrade. Activesync should close and bootloader on the ppc will be started. This is a screen with many colours/stripes, which is normal but looks very bad and different from normal bootup.
Then the flashing will start, the screen on the ppc will turn white/grey and a scale will show you the percentage of the flashingprocess (similar to the screen of the pc). Wait patentiently and do not toch the ppc or disconnect (or expect a bricked device).
At the end, the ppc will reboot and take a while (longer then normal bootup) to initiate the boot for the 1st time.
If this wont work, then try to extract the upload file, put the ppc in boatloader mode, connect to pc and start the romupdateutility.exe directly.
Good Luck!
hi,
i've flashed my HTC P3300 and it was done successfully (using USPL) but the language was Spanish, i searched a lot how to change it to english since i dont understand a word of it.
through one of the forums, i was told to set the SysLang = 1032 in registry to get the english language, i done so, now, the phone is stuck in Welcome (WM6.1) screen and nothing is happening, not even responding to power key.
I tried hard reset, it doesn't work, i tried entering to bootloader, it also doesn't work, also, i am not able to connect it to PC since i guess its not completed up.
Just got stuck with a brick, can you help please. Really needed!!!!!!
Thanks
Maybe flashing ROM from memory card may help. Search Artemis wiki for micro card ROM flashing.
Hello, I guess I'm having the same problem...tried to flash but something went wong and now I have my htc p3300 blocked with the multicolor screen. It does not work, so I don't understand how I could start flashing rom by memory card. Could you be a little bit more detailed? Thanks in advance
I updated my rom from the original spanish version to a Artemis_Touch_3.01
After some use, the device is blocked.
It starts the HArd reset, after "Format messages" It starts HTC white screen
IPL 3.13.0001
SPL 3.13.0000
and nothing more
.
It also works ROM update mode (Three colors screen) but when I execute the Rom update frommy pc, it reaches 2/3% and gives different Errors depending the ROM,

hello,
First you must open the bootloader menu,
hold voice dial button and press soft reset.
If this not working hold voice dial and on/off button and softreset.
You must connect first your htc with your pc and the start the bootloader.
When you are in the bootloader menu, you can upload an orginal fabricrom to your htc.
Search xda-developer for the fabric rom.
And then you can change your rom for something else but don't forget the uspl.
When you want to change image you must install the uspl first otherwise everthing will blocked
the problem you have is that you have to run the uspl first before you can flash another firmware. If you run the uspl you will see that the spl loader of your device is version 1.11.000 and than you can flash an other rom of your choice
greetzz Patrick
uspl does not work. this is the point you can not get it.
have a problem but I cannot find anything useful for my case, maybe you can help me?

Hi Patrick,
I have a dutch rom on my htc P3300
IPL: 1.12.0001
SPL: 1.12.0000
GSM: 02.67.90
os: 1.12.0.0
my HTC remains stuck on the startup screen (logo HTC) and will not get any further.
Connection with active synch is not possible, ans holding the buttons reset-voice rec-on/off buttons don't react. WM cannot be started in that way.
is it possible to find a boot program which allows me to start up WM again like a regular PC? something like a emergency startup disk? I have a 2GB micro SD card. After reading and trying so many things, I lost the way in this site and was hoping maybe you can send me some useful links that can solve my problem? I would appriciate the effort.I don't know if it's allowed to send my personal emailadress? If it is allowed please let me know. Maybe we can exchange directly some info, otherwise I don't have a problem mailing this site.
(I hope I can find this thread again after closing?)
Kind regards , Eli
my artemis is also in the same state
