I upgraded my rom to 2003 and now I cant write another rom to it. Everytime I run rom.exe it tells me the connection was forcibly shut down and to check my USB connection. But then I can turn around and sync it.
what up!!!!!!!!!!?????????
What is your ROM version?
Rom upgrade
It doesn't matter what Active Sync you are using. If you upgrade to 2003, you can't change to anything else by activesync. The easiest way is to use XDA Tools. Here is a link to someone who had the same problem. This thread helped me when I was in your situation. you can find the software and everything you need in this thread.[/url]
i dont think he want to go back to 2002 i think he just want
his 2003 to work with active sync

Yes that sounds about right, your only option now is to use the boot loader
method to up/downgrade your ROM. So if you don't have one already its time to get yourself a PC SD card reader.
BTW what ROM are you trying to up/downgrade to?

I installed 2005, and couldn't sych at all by AS4, everytime it tried to connect, i said looking for changes and then a protection fault, so I downgraded to wm2003se and active sych couldnt connect, I reinstalled AS 3.7 and then 3.8, but it can not run at all it just starts connecting, then stops and I can not show Activesynch window, it can not even explore the device
does anybody have a solution for this, or do I have to format and reinstall windows
yo medman
personally i think it was a bad mistake to upgrade to W2005. cause its still in the development phase and u wont find a lot of help from us users cause most of us are still waiting for a stable version to come out
looking at u'r situation
hard reset u'r PPC, do not connect u'r USB.....now install 3.8 MSYNC....... restrt u'r computer.....n then once rebooted......connect the USB cradle with u'r comp and put in u'r PPC...
it shld work now..
best of luck
sync problem...solved!
hey medman,
i don't see why every one is dissing wm2005, its a great rom!
but for the people who are having problems with connecting their device with wm2005 to ActiveSync 4.0 i figured out what is wrong:
if you connected your device to your computer before you installed the new
ActiveSync, it set your device with no driver, and even if you have the
ActiveSync driver now you computer allready recognised your device, so:
the solution is to delete the device setting under device manager of your
computer [start->control panel->system->hardware->device manager]
now with device manager open and with you ppc not connected:
go to the view tab and check "show hidden devices"
then look for the driver of the ppc most likely under the "Non-Plug and Play
Drivers" but if it is not there look around for the driver
when you find it, you went to delete it by right-clicking on the driver and
clicking uninstall
after you delete the old driver have ActiveSync running and place your ppc in the cradle, and the new driver should be installed by ActiveSync 4.0
if you need activesync 4.0 just tell me and i can give you my sight that i uploded as4.0 and wm2005 in a rar file, by the way...most answers are being found on this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18584&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0
re:
To rooschool: I did what u suggested but same...
To Destroyer7337:
I didn't connect the ppc before the active sych, I raid this topic before I tried wm2005, I took all the precautions u mentioned, but to no avail, any way I downgraded to 2003se bu I cannot synch with all versions of activesynch
Driver?
What is the name of the driver? I can't find anything in non plug and play and I'm not sure what I'm looking for.

Thank for trying to help I already had looked at the notations on the ActiveSinc I have the impression that the problem is a DLL in the XP the solution perhaps is to reinstall everything again.
Curiosity: What it means NSPS in your ExtRom topic
reinstall everything?
seach in the forum if none o what i sad worked there is some dlls i see somewhere you can remove and reinstall.
well if it didnt work and reinstall is a possibility do it
remember service packs
my ntsp in extended rom is :never twice the same programs......lol
good luck
Hi all,
I just upgraded my xdaII from WM2003 to WM2003SE which seemed to work ok.
I then got the issue where the screen stops responding and worked out how to edit the config.txt file, ok I thought I'll just re-install SE.
So I dock my XDA into the cradle but it wont connect with active sync 4 anymore, which means I cant install the OS again.
Can anyone help me??
Cheers
Marff
nevermind, did a hard reset and the pda is working ok now, still doesnt want to connect to Activesync tho
when flashing you dont want it to connect to activesync anyway
best thing is to set activesync to not sync on usb devices let windows find the pda as a non as device and then flash
also if you change the extented rom as in config.txt and reflash you are likely to get a new extented rom and a new config.txt overwriting yours anyway
most of the time when you change extented rom a hardreset is what you want
Hi rudegar
I didnt get as far as reinstalling the OS with the modded config.txt, once I hard reset the pda after installing it the first time it worked ok, it installed the O2 extensions and worked fine, except MSN messenger wont work, where before it would.
i tried disabling what you said and windows wouldnt detect it at all.
With it enabled I could see it as a mobile device in my computer, but not access it.
Also the active sync window would not load, the taskbar icon is there, but when you click on it the window does not pop up, but you can get to the options
its annoying as I now cant install any programs onto the pda, I dont have a USB reader for the SD card at the moment.
not sure whats going on

really? cos the program I ran to upgrade the OS, himaupgradeUt says the pda should be docked and synced??
just installed activesync on my other pc and the pda syncs ok with it.
I downloaded the only official update from the HTC america website and when I try and run the update, I lose my active sync connection. It stays connected until I try to run the software. Also, it works fine when transferring anything else like music, pics, or vids or whatever. I can usually figure stuff out, but since I just got this thing and Im no computer programmer I was hoping one of you genius computer guys could help me out.

read the wiki ...
Thats funny, I knew someone one reply with that. I already have. I would try to upgrade using the sd card but the instructions are obviously for someone who know about the stuff. How about someone giving me some better instructions on how to use the sd card to upgrade. I dont get all the extract the .nbh file and do this that and the other. All I see on my pc is the program I downloaded. I click on it and it runs the program, I have no clue how to extract files by right clicking because there is no option when I right click to extract files.
one of you pc usb is rubbish i got a macbook running vista and one of my usb i cant use to flash roms or it will just die i think power isue just change usb port

If you have a computer with lots of stuff plugged in by USB, they are sharing the same 5V that is required by the Hermes.
IE - a computer with 6 port USB (3x2), each 2 USB are sharing 5V
plug 1 out and leave in hermes just for flashing period
so it get full 5v
Ok, I downloaded Winrar and tried to extract the .nbh file and that didnt work either. Instructions in wiki says put it in bootloader, but when I do, I get a screen with like four different colors...Not the one on the pic in the wiki. I only have two usb ports and this is from my laptop. I am only using one port when I try and I do have the power plugged in when I try. Its windows xp if it matters. Im at a loss. Does this mean I wont be able to upgrade my 8525 at all? Maybe someone can give some better instructions on going through the sd card and getting into the right bootloader mode?
Shane
anybody want to chime in and help me out here?
AS version is current?
have you tried out a different cable?
consider using a different pc/notebook.
first thing to do here is to troubleshoot connection with AS. once you fix that problem, you should have no problems upgrading..
also, make sure your device is not set on a power/battery saving scheme. make sure its set to be always on with external power.
It's normal that when you do the upgrade, your activesync it supposed to automatically disappear. I had the same issue and I downloaded the ATT official ROM from this site, using that to upgrade. It upgraded my firmware and WM6 also. After that, I use the unlock CID to unlock my phone and Ihave been able to do upgrade serveral WM6 after that ... Goodluck.
I presume you have HardSPL'd your phone?
I only now every flash from the MicroSD card, much safer than using USB as that can be very flakey depending on which machine your using it on.
gt2slo, you need to do a little more reading if you haven't already but flashing from the MicroSD is pretty straight forward. You have to open the ROM you are using with WinRAR and extract the .nbh file to anyway on your hard drive. It always works.
The screen you saw in the WIKI is the one that comes up after going into bootloader and the device sees a file called HERMIMG.nbh on the MicroSD card
Hi Guys, I just took my old XDA2 out of retirement (it died as I broke the sim card reader) And decided I want to use it as an about the house Internet Browser and possibly media player.
I know what software to put on it to make it do what I want but I'm stuck with getting it to to connect to the net
I have tried several ROM's (I hate the official o2 rom just because of all the crap) I like the WM6 ROM as it is the latest software But when I put it back into my cradle it comes up unrecognised and wont sync with active sync.
I cant get it to sync over bluetooth either? I can pair it with my PC via bluetooth but cant synch it. As I have windows Vista I am trying to sync with windows mobile device centre and still no joy. personally i dont care f it does sync but I'm sure I need it to so that i can browse the internet on my xda????
Now I'm stuck... do I flash it with an older ROM in the hope it will start to sync with one of my 2 PC's (It really needs to work with the vista PC)
Or is there another way I can set this up regardless of the rom so I can have some kind of local bluetooth network where I can access the net and my PC via the XDA2?
I would prefer the latter as I can Use the newer WM6 ROM.
my xda2 sync just fine over bluetooth
i set the xda2 in descoverymode and add it from vista bluetooth setup
and the xda2 see the vista pc and let me add it and then
in activesync on the xda2 i pick sync over bluetooth
otherwise you can take a look at this
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=InternetOverBluetoothNetwork
I have a lot of problems with sync over bluetooth, but my reason is really simple, I turn off microsoft firewall on my PC with WinXP and It is work fine..I can be on net and icq...
Internet over activesync???
Hi, is there a way to connect my xda to internet over activesync?
unless you have disabled it on the pc or on the pocketpc
your pda is always connected to the same network internet and otherwise when
connected to activesync
can u teach me how? after disabling connection from the pc, wat will i do nxt?
"can u teach me how? after disabling connection from the pc, wat will i do nxt?"
hhmmm at no point did i tell you to disable connection from the pc.....
settings->connections->connections->advanced->select networks
there are some texts showing "programs that automatically connect to the internet should connect using"
and a dropdownbox
select the dropdownbox item which is not called something like "my isp"
but pick the one thats called something like "my network"
then all programs trying to access the internet will be forced to use activesync as internet connection and if activesync is not connected they will fail!
Ei man, kinda misunderstood it. sorry. I'll try it later. BTW, u know how to upgrade wm2003se to wm5 or wm6? can u teach me step by step how to's? or possibly know a clear steps by steps procedure threads?
this is a copyPaste directly from the file in all the roms called READMEFIRST.txt
"Start your device in bootloader mode by pressing and holding down:
DPad + PowerButton + ResetButton
After a second release ResetButton, then release the rest of them.
Your screen will show word "Serial" at the top.
You are in bootloader mode now.
. Place your device in the cradle, ensuring that the cradle
is plugged directly into a USB port on your PC and not to a hub
and that the power supply is connected to the cradle.
It is also a good idea to disable any screensavers on your desktop PC.
Once your device is cradled, the text on the screen will change to "USB".
Run HimaUpgradeUt.exe (or HimaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe if flashing on any Himalaya other which is from than O2)
Sit back and wait for the Congratulations screen to be displayed
on your PC. Your device will still be displaying 'Upgrading radio stack, please wait',
but as long as the PC says it is done, then its all OK.
Detach your device from the cradle.
Now you have to hardreset your device.
Press ResetButton and hold down CameraButton + RecordButton.
Hold them pressed until the "Boot Options" menu appears on the screen.
Select the options as follows:
(for selecting use RecordButton, change values with CameraButton)
Enable KITL -> NO
Clean Registry Hive -> YES
Format Storage -> YES"
Ei man, thnx, ur advice work with activesync.
