HP Protect Tools
Do not use this, except you work for FBI and has lots of secret data.
Running Applications
Tap the Running Programs tab, select the application you wish to close, and tap the Stop button (or you can tap the Stop All button to close all running applications). Be sure all applications closed before turning off your IPAQ.
Power Setting
Pocket PC devices that are running Windows Mobile turn on at midnight to search for appointments for the coming day. Reminders are set and the Today view is updated with the day's events, thus on Battery power, turn off device if not used for 1 minute, Backlight on battery power: 30 seconds.
You can adjust whatsoever you want, the rule is turn off device > turn off backlight.
TODAY Plug-ins:
Better you uninstalled all today plug-ins thrid party progs.
Installed programs on SD/CF running in memory sometimes not respond after you turn on from automatic battery turn off.
It takes between 3-5 seconds to get response and/or sometimes program automatically closed by itself.
Solution: installed the programs in DEVICE.
Tips: Remove any unnecessary files in memory storage, so you will have more ROM memory storage.
After I turn on the device(2490b) from automatic battery turn off every time the backlight on battery power change to 10 seconds, no matter which setting I was choose. Until the device power off(auto or manually) the setting works, but after power on the setting change to 10 seconds again. Have anyone else this issue? Any solution?

Uhmm strange, try to do clean reset whether the symptom disappear.
BT phone manager that you missed in wm6.0
extracted from WM5.0
Dear All,
Please pay attention that after making changes, installing new software or doing your usual software settings it is advisable to power off your device before soft-resetting.
Example, I recently setup my Inbox mail accounts and soft resetted my device in a usual way. After a soft reset I found out that none of my accounts was actually kept. So, I did setup again, powered off my device and soft-resetted it. After soft-reset all mail accounts were saved and were workable
To limit CPU Usage
1.Do the Activesync Fake server trick then turn all schedule to manual
To prevent Compaction
1.As much as possible free your program memory and install all programs in the SD of CF (if possible)
2.Move all cache to SD or CF (memmaid or SKtools can do this)
Registry: ActiveSync Manually
The above Activesync fix will also fix the problem many are having with not being able to turn on their WM6 unit.
JUST TO MAKE SURE ACTIVESYNC IS MANUALLY ACTIVATED:
You can also check the following registry entry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ActiveSync\Engines\{176F 4FFD-F20C-4bd4-BDD7-01D0726C567B}\Settings] SyncAfterTimeWhenCradled (x)
Where x is one of the following:
0=Manually synchronize
5=5 minutes. Default value.
15=15 minutes
30=30 minutes
60=60 minutes
120=2 hours
240=4 hours
Here is real fix for A2DP problem on any custom hx2000 firmwares (e.g. 3.50, 3.52, WM6).
Download this cab file: Udillak_A2DP_Fix_for_hx2000_custom_firmwares.cab
Install it, make softreset and relax with working sound and controls of your bluetooth headphones.
Hello,
Since I've installed WM6 on my hx2790b it's great for everything but the PIM...
It's impossible to add a contact, an appointment, etc... It tells me "An unexpected error has occurred in this program." And it's impossible to synchronize the PIM with my PC
Any idea ?
Try to flash rom again, but you must do clean reset before (holding 1+power+3+ and stylus-reset). After successful update, u must do a clean reser again (on screen "formatting ps").
Synchronizing with PC, you must use the latest ActiveSync 4.5.

Calibrating your Battery
Read this:
http://h41206.www4.hp.com/webapps/IV3/adddoc.iv?locale=en_us&type=rep&prodSeriesId=349051&target=/NL_HW_IPG_iPAQ_common_EN_01_E/Resets/AllipaqsPoweIssuesBatteryCalibration.html&node=prodITRC/NL_HW_IPG_iPAQ_common_EN_01_E/N1|4|2|3&prodTypeId=215348&serverId=1
Calibrating your Battery
Power issues you may experience with your iPAQ over time:
* Unit fails to Power On
* Unit fails to charge 100% only holding 50% of the charge
Important: If you experience problems with power on your unit the fault may not be with the main battery. Swap testing the battery with a known good working battery may show the same fault. Calibrating your unit by running the 'Battery Calibration' test may resolve 'Power Related Issues'. You must follow the tests below exactly for good results.
1. Charge the unit for 30 minutes (No More, No Less) only powered by AC Adapter and 22-pin connector and not connected to the PC/Cradle (make sure the unit is switched/powered off).
2. Remove the power and full 'Hardware Reset' and then 'Soft Reset'.
3. Charge the unit again for 4 hours connected to ac power only. By following the procedure exactly as outlined in the steps above this will enable full calibration of the battery with the unit (make sure the unit remains switched/powered off during this charge period).
Note: After a software reset the power Leds (Light Emitting Diodes) should now be on and the battery should be showing 100%. If the unit still fails on power do the following checks:
*Test the AC Adapter at another location/power source.
*Swap test The AC Adapter if possible.
THIS WILL HELP BATTERY DRAINED ISSUE of WM6.0 in some HX2000 series; USING SKTOOL or MEMMAID:
1. KILL BioDtect in Windows Startup
2. Set Credant Manager in StartupService as MANUAL and STOP.
3. Set Standby into 24 Hr in Power Setting
4. Soft reset
5. DO NOT EVER EVER RECHARGE YOUR IPAQ USING USB in the CRADLE!!! RECHARGE YOUR IPAQ USING CABLE POWER SUPPLY ADAPTOR!!!
Bricked My Ipaq! hx2795... HELP!!
Hi,
I just got an Ipaq hx2795 and I upgraded to WM6, and it worked perfectly!. However, I saw a supposedly upgraded version of WM6 and i tried to install it, and too hastily I think. I did it without first removing my SD and CF cards. the upgrade said it went through ok on the PC, but it froze on the PPC, about halfway. ever since then, I've only been able to bring up the pda in pre-BL mode. Whenever I attempt to re-load any ROM (WM5 or WM6), I get the error message that the language of my current ROM is unknown and hence, the upgrade cannot go through. To further complicate my problem, I was trying to recover it about 3 nights ago and accidentally left the pda on all night in pre-BL mode. Now I think the battery is dead and I do not know how to charge it. Is there any resource or anyone that can help me with this problem? Is there a way to load the rom and Ignore the language setting on the Ipaq? What should I do now? HELP!!
Please let me know ASAP and Thanks!!

Thanks for the assistance, however the flash keeps on saying that my pda's language is "unknown" and hence stops the upgrade as a result. What do i do about this?

WM6 hx2795 and WiFi
Hello everyone,
I just came across this forum today, and was very happy to. I flashed my rom from wm5 to wm6 and definitely like wm6 more.
Now for my bug. I'm using an hx2795. Wi-Fi worked in wm5, now after I flashed the WiFi manager will connect to a AP then says 'Driver not loaded.' and disconnect. I saw Anavas' post in the "i will pay..." thread and said that wifi was working on his. So, I'm guessing it's possible to have wifi on this model. I'm hoping he/she or someone else can help me out? It's just strange that it seems to start working (can shortly do SiteSurvey as well sometimes)...
As can be guessed the driver update from HP doesn't work (incorrect revision error).
Resetting makes it works for a short time, but then I get the 'Driver not loaded' thing.
/* EDIT
* This only appears to happen when in the cradle. I took it out and it didn't give me anymore problems...weird, maybe something to do with connecting through usb vs wi-fi conflict?
*/
Thanks a bunch.
CE OS 5.2.1437 (Build 17944.0.3.1)
hi,
I checked with my hx2795 and I don't have any problem connecting WiFi so far,
I can able to connect it from my home and the office.
I even checked with the cradle, I have no problem,
Have you done a hard reset once you flashed the ROM, or did you install any other driver / software ?
I used my ppc at school all day today, and plugged it in cradle just now. I can't repeat the error, so I have no idea how, but it's working just fine. So....solution was to do nothing and let it go away, haha.

Celetask is supercool task manager:
Include New Task, Close task, Switch Task and View Task Properties.
Start any application through command line.
CeleTask can also execute any menu command in command line.
Include Terminate Process, View Process Modules, Properties.
Tool box with full customization support. Include Power Status, Memory Status, Free Memory, Reboot System, Shutdown System, etc.
Hot Key Customization
User can assign a hot key for any command.
All this with one press the Internet button
I use Internet button to start the Celetask and I set the hotkey of Celetask to shutdown all apps with another press of Internet button. I use "8 button" to clean the ram. And that how with 3 clicks I close all aps and clean the memory
The "1" button I use for soft restart.
To use this task manager with hotkey just download the attachment end copy two files in WINDOWS folder.
I see this in Kavana new 6.1 ROM, but you can use it in all other ROMS.

No problem, and you can try CeleCmd,it's also a good software,it help me do everything (install cab,create shortcut,input reg,and so on)after cold boot,my rom is also base on CeleCmd
I try it, but nowhere i can find documentation in English .
Can you attach the CeleTask last version in English now?
this is a great proggie. i've used it to create a shortcut to soft reset. the only problem is that it asks me to confirm i want to restart the phone. there's probably a way to bypass this, but i've not figured it out.
anyone know if there's a way to use celetask to restart the phone without a confirmation message?
Yes:
Menu-->Options-->Show Alert
Just remove the check and Celetask will make everything without questions.
Now I have a question:
how to make a hotkey with Celetask to start anoother program.
I see I can add programs to tools but can connect hotkey to them
i have the opposite question littleclown...
for some reason activesync is in my celetask and i don't want it there. there's no reason for it to start at startup. at least i don't think it's necessary anyway. it fires up just fine on it's own when i plug it into the computer.
i can't seem to get it removed from the program list in celetask.
can anyone fill me in on the trick?
Fake server for Activesync
The following info comes from Aximsite
1. open the Activesync program.
2. Select Menu at the bottom right hand corner of the screen. This will bring up the Options Menu. Notice the option Schedule... is greyed out? This is the all-critical option we need to get access to. But as it's disabled we can't change Activesync's default synchronisation schedule.
Ok, so how do we enable the Schedule option? Easy!!! Fool Activesync into thinking there is an Exchange Server to sync with:
1. From Activesync's Menu select Add Server Source.
2. In the following screens you can enter any old garbage. It does not matter, but just in case your unsure, just type the following in the indicated boxes:
Server Address: fake
Tap Next
User name: fake
Password: fake
Domain: fake
(Select save password or going into the Advanced menu makes no difference, so no need to bother).
Next
Untick all of the 'Data you want to synchronise' options
Tap Finish
3. Ok, we're done creating the server. You should now see in Activesync's main screen your normal Activesync connection(s), and a new connection called Exchange Server.
4. Go back into the Menu, and lo and behold the Schedule option is now enabled! Go ahead and tap it!
5. You will see that both options in the Schedule screen are set to Every X Minutes.
6. Using the drop downs, change both the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes to Manually.
7. Press the OK button.
Now
1. Go back into Activesync's Menu, then Tap Options.
2. Highlight Exchange Server, then tap Delete. A warning message will appear about removing files etc, but as you have no files associated with the fake Exchange Server, it's nothing to worry about - just tap Ok.
3. The list will now only show your remaining PC Sync connection(s).
I did and Activesync stop starting automatically, however after you connect with your PC you need to close Activesync with Celetask
thanks!
unfortunately it didn't work.
i'm trying something else. will report back.
I can't let Mallman have all the fun and glory (although he is doing a damn good job at getting those themes out, thank you for the inspiration)
Here are the installation instructions for my theme which is a WVGA adaptation of the ActuProColor theme
REQUIREMENTS:
1. Wisbar Advanced Desktop 2
2. A device capable of 480x800 (WVGA) resolution
3. WWE ROM although you can update the links in the theme and use it for any ROM. Just more work to install if it isnt WWE
4. The zip file which is downloaded from www.imagesoflife-online.co.uk/temp/ActuProColor_WVGA.zip and is 9.3Mb
Uninstall:
Switch themes in settings for WAD2 and delete previously installed directories
Installation:
1. Extract "ActuProColor_WVGA.zip" to folder on your pc. You will end up with one folder with all of the bits you need inside it, including the icons and the wallpaper.
2. From your pc,copy the folder named "ActuProColour_WVGA" to the "Themes" under your Wisbar Advanced Desktop installation directory. If you installed Wisbar to your internal storage (not storage microsd card) the folder is:
\Program Files\Lakeridge\WisBar Advance Desktop\Themes ***note*** if this folder does not exist just create it
3. Start WAD2 and go to settings by touching and holding anywhere on the screen.
4. Select the "General" tab
5. Select "Change Theme"
6. Tap "ActuProColour"
7. Select "menu" at the bottom and choose "Set as portrait"
8. Select "apply"
9. Press "OK"
I have installed Klaxon to link to the clock for alarms and there is a link for S2U2 for the lock option.
This is my first theme so be gentle with me.
Hope you enjoy it.
super nice keep it up!!!!
swindon?
hi how do you get the swindon weather? im in swindon, cant find it?
Press and hold anywhere outside of a 'button', select 'Settings', select the 'weather' tab, enter the city required and off you go.
Regards
cant d/l can u reup
It's still on the server...and hasn't changed.
I tried WAD with your theme but I have the following problems :
1) When the phone wakes up by pressing the power button, it shows WAD for a couple of seconds and then it reverts to S2U2. Therefore, if the power button is pressed accidentally when the phone is in my pocket, all widgets and phone hard keys are pressable during these two seconds, before S2U2 takes control. As a result, many times I find my HD in my pocket with lots of apps running ...
2) When I tried to replace S2U2 by extending your theme and building my own (WAD based) lock screen, the "home" hardkey didn't lock. As a result, I find many apps running when the phone is accidentally turned on and the home key is pressed ...
3) When the phone is locked by S2U2, it is asleep and I get an incoming call, if takes a couple of seconds to wake up. Even when it does, the dialer ID doesn't show correctly as either the caller's name or the control buttons (answer, reject etc) are not showing. This happens in both cases, that is if I use the WM buildin dialer ID windows, or the the S2U2 one.
Although I really loved WAD I had to reject it due to these problems.
Any ideas on these problems ?
Any answer would be appreciated
Unfortunately due to the quirkiness of WAD2, I have given up on it and now MSH3.
Sorry, can't help you any more as I don't have WAD2 installed.
Regards

I also had to reject WAD2 and turn to MS3 due to the problems described above. I posed this question just for verifying that these problems do not happen on my device only.
It is a shame that such a nice piece of customizable and creative software cannot cope with the HD device ...

Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.
How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!

it's extremely easy.. just copy it to your SD card.. and flash it just like a normal ROM.. but it has to be flashed after the Android ROM..
1) copy it along with the ROM to your SD card
2) flash the ROM
3) flash the patch
4) enjoy

I get force closes with theme manager when trying to apply any theme regardless of it being new or old. Clean install too.
Edit:
Found that after applying a theme and it force closes, to see theme go to settings, personal, and enable/disable custom toggles and it'll work.
Actually, apply each separate theme one by one. They'll all force close but it'll go through when you enable/disable the custom toggles.
HI
Do i need to partition my sd card?
This works and is easy.
1. Go to shipping-roms.com and download your applicable Rom, for your phone, from your service provider. Click on Android, scroll to bottom of list and click on "Vision", then scroll to the file called "RUU_Vision_BellMobility_WWE_1.34.666.1_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.18_M2_release_154437_signed.exe". This is the one you want!
2. Make sure you have HTC Sync installed on your Windows based laptop, this is what provides the driver for your usb to connect to your phone.
3. Make sure "USB Debugging" is set on your phone. It can be found by going to: Applications/Development, then check it off at the top.
4. Power Down Phone, or choose "restart" from your "rooted" phone and select "BootLoader" in the option list that comes up.
5. (If you chose bootloader from list as mentioned above, skip this step) With your phone powered down, hold the power button and "up" volume switch simultaneously to get to bootloader menu. This could take a few tries to get right. Keep trying, you'll get it. Hopefully though, you'll have the option in the "restart" menu of your rooted phone.
6. With "usb debugging" on and your phone in "bootloader" mode, it is time to fire up the executable file your downloaded in step 1. After it installs, you will get a grey screen program that shows your phone. Check the box and select next, on the next screen, check the box again and select next. Wait for the rewrite of the original ROM to your phone. You'll know it's working as your phone will display the HTC logo with a green progress bar.
Note: While the original ROM is being installed, your phone may power down a couple of times. No worries, it is expected behaviour. When the program is done, it will tell you it is finished, and your phone will reboot to it's fresh from Bell state.
Hope this helps. Wish these instructions were here when I had to do it. Lol!
Enjoy the Day!
If anyone is having luck with this, and this post was helpful, I could use the "Thank Yous". This allows me to post the direct links to the items you"ll need for unroots.
Actually i was getting ERR 155 but, it was because i was not on bootloader... thanks for the clear and easy to follow steps.
Now i got it working with stock Froyo!!
