have you tried a hard reset? or even re-writtin the bios?
that worked for me
Hi Guys,
I need your help .
I've downloaded the 4.00.16 ROM by mistake, it really didn't tell the ROM number, so now I want to revert to a earlier one and I can't.
I've got the following message: "ERROR: GetDeviceData - An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.
error getting devicedata" and then "ERROR 011: EXECUTE REMOTE COMMUNICATION PROGRAM ERROR. Cannot execute the remote communication program. Please make sure that the USB/Serial cable is properly connected."
PLEASE HELP ME, I'M REALLY STUCK NOW AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...
Sorry ... when can i get the radio 6.24.00 ???
can work for Italy ?
What do you mean with "re-writtin the bios" ... ? the SD card boot ?
Thanks
Hey guys, ive been reading many threads regarding issues with the sx56, but after going through most of them, it seems ive been left with more questions. Anyway, my problem is , first of all the reception sucks, signals drop every now and then and i hate saying "sorry? ur breaking up" now from what ive learnt so far from most of the posts is that this "signal" issue is due to the radio stack. My siemens sx56 is running:
Windows Mobile Pocket PC 2003
Model No.: PW10B1
ROM version : A.30.09.ENG
ROM date : 01/01/04
Radio Version : A.33.02
Protocol Version : 1.3.3
now, i have been thinking that maybe i should try downgrading the radio stack while still using ppc2003 , but ive seen many posts in which people have bricked their phones due to downgrade.
Another thing is i forgot what was the default radio version before the ppc2003 upgrade (as i think the signal strength was somewhat better prior to this upgrade) So just to be on the safe side, could any of you recommend me which radio stacks i can use? the ones i see on LumpiStefans site are:
RSU Version 3.23
RSU Version 4.16
RSU Version 4.21
RSU Version A20.10
RSU Version 6.24.20
RSU Version 6.25.02
from what i have figured the A20.10 might be the one which was originally installed in the phone when it came with ppc2002 just a guess since there are no other versions above which has an A in the start.But would downgrading kill my phone?
Now the next problem is the volume problem, that INCREASING ring is quite stupid, ive tried disabling the PDA volume and let the phone volume on full, the increasing ring problem goes away but it raises another problem of JUST ONE RING thats it, it just doesnt keep on ringing, just rings once and then goes silent. Do tell me if this is also a radio stack problem or is there any solution for it.
And yeah , finally, is windows mobile 5.0 any good? is it better than the windows mobile pocket pc 2003? and will it work on the sx56? in fact, are there any other OS besides ppc2002-ppc2003 which would work on sx56?
Thanks.

The A20.10 and the 6.xx Version should work on your phone, cause it's a PW10B-Model....
Flashing of Radio Stack is everytime little bit danderous like all flashing.
If the process doing fine, there should be no problem. I would do removing the sim and doing a hardreset before flashing the radiostack....

This is an issue of the A30.0x ROMs. If you're going to use the 4.01.12 then there won't be the increasing sound problem.....

There is no WM 5.0 available for the Wallaby devices. Newest, but in my eyes really buggy ROM Version is WM2003 Second Edition....
Only othe rOS running on the Wallaby is Linux, but until now it's not running as complete, as you can use your phone and all the other functions....
Stefan
thank u for the reply stefan! just a few more quick questions:
1. How do i soft/hard reset? iam sorry iam new to pocket pc's.
2. The ROM u mentioned ,4.01.12, does it have any bugs i should be aware of?
3.Which radio stack do you think is better? the 6.xx or A20.10?
4.How do i install the radio stack and the rom? i downloaded the radio stack ZIP file and the rom is being downloaded. The radio stack zip file has no WIN32 executable file. Do i need to copy it over the phone ? how?
5. Should i install the rom first or the radio stack?
Thanks.
1. Softreset is pushing your stylus once in the little hole on the left side at the bottom.
For Hardreset you have to unscrew your stylus and push twice in the very little hole on the right side at the bottom.
2. The 4.01.12 has like all other WM2003 for the Wallaby the problem that under certain circumstands the sd-card will be formatted. I have used WM2003 for about 2 weeks and had this problem once.
3. Don't know which one is better. Never used one of them cause i have a PW10A-Model
4. You have to put the files in one folder on your SX56 and run the exe directly on the device. Pay Attention to have enough power....
5. It depends on you.....
Stefan
ok this is weird... i upgraded my rom to 4.01.12, after the O2 Screen, normal setup procedure comes.. the thing which bothered me was when i clicked on DEVICE INFORMATION..it is now showing model PW10A-MODEL whereas its a PW10B model,says so on the sticker, and the radio stack is still A.33.02 :S
its working though signal problems are still there... i tried the A20.10 and 6.xxx radio stack versions but they dont wanna upgrade , they give messages like "upgrade failed or retry". Should i try other RSU versions like 4.21??
or maybe i need to try that sd-bootloader method? if so, how?
ok you can ignore my previous post about radio stack, i guess i found the solution.
Radio stack upgrade only works if you copy the 4 files of any radio stack archive to the WINDOWS ROOT FOLDER OF YOUR WALLABY DEVICE!
copying to a seprate folder or anywhere else results in 1% hangup or upgrade failed messages. IT ONLY WORKS WHEN YOU COPY THE FILES TO THE WINDOWS ROOT FOLDER OF THE DEVICE . I just upgraded the radio stack to 6.24.00, lets see if it solves my the problem of bad and breaking up signals.
I still havent found out why my wallaby shows PW10A though :roll:

Could you specify Windows root folder?
is it \Windows\ or just \ ??????

This depends on the ROM used. PW10A is static in the ROM. If you want it, I'm sure I can make a ROM where it's Type is PW10F .....
Stefan
its the \WINDOWS folder.
And the ROM i used was 4.01.12.
By the way, that 6.24.00 RSU kicks butt! havent came across any signal problems at all. Thanks a lot stefan! this forum rules! :lol:
and do let me know about this model version problem, do i need to install any other ROM which will display the correct model version i.e PW10B ??
Got fustrated
I hat the 4.01.16 ROm with 6.02 RSU, I've tryed to upgrade to 6.25.02, copy all files to Windows and the Upgrade to startup, but I kept at 1%, do a reset and after 10 minutes I got an error, now my phone is off, I cannot turned on, in settings I still had version 6.02 of RSU, If I use the Phone icon in Control Panel it says the fhone is off, turn it on and try again and there's the wait icon in the windows.
How can I restore my settings?, perhaps I tryied to updagre with poor storage space, the MS Voice Command eated allmost all RAM and I had to increase it, also I left the SIM while upgrading, any help will be wellcome.

please let me know if you find the solution...I have the same problem
Thanks
Yes
Yes, The solution was to put all files on the windows folder and execute the update program from that location, the procedure continues to 100%, and then, I think it reset my machinne, and when it boot again I got the new RSU installed and the phone was able to turn on again, automatically.
Good Luck

can you tell me whcih version of RSU you used?
I have PW10B1 model and I load the XDA-Developers ROM Version 1.1 but I still have problems with RSU..I tried almost all RSU from ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wallaby/ but no succees...
if you have the same model maybe you can send me by email your RSU version...please!
my email is [email protected]oo.com
I have 6.25.02
I'm using the 6.25.02 version, the very same files that had failed with then 1% problem, the trick was no to put anything in the starup folder, do not soft reset before the procedure.
Simply navigate to your Windows folder with any file explorer and execute the update program. Give it time to finish, ensure that the procedure reach 100%.
Good Luck

I just did this but when I'm starting at 1% the status bar is disappearing and it seems that is doing nothing...is this normal?
Did you had the status bar until 100%?
Perhaps you have a wrong ROM for that RSU
Remember that you must have the rigth ROM for a given RSU, all Win2003 require RSU version 6.x, if you hace downgraded the ROM you'll need an older RSU.
Sorry
Yes, I saw my status bar reach 10%, 20% and so on, ultil it reach 100%

here is written tu use for their ROM, XDA-Developers ROM Version 1.1, and PW10B-Model RSU Version 6.24.20 ....but is not working with this also (...
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
as per topic, i can use my ppc as a pc but not at all as a phone, and i d/l'd WM2003SE under the himalaya section of buzzdev.net and yet still no go, i have tried various ways short of obtaining my old 2003 (non-se)
im going crazy, so many little error's i've gone through lately and gotten over most so far, but my radio rom and being unable to upgrade/ downgrade/ flash modify at all, i don't know why, i cant connect to the ppc via activesync so i can't use getverdata or whatever app it is... in simple words i need help with my radio rom, how can i def. edit it, cause iwth hima upgrade i can't seem to.get it working.. boh i dunno it's sending me crazy
Which Himalaya model do you have?
i have an O2 XDAII, just the normal version, not XDA IIi, not XDAII mini or XDAIIs
i've fixed my OS to WM2005 BUT can't seem to fix and keep getting error 114 (radio rom upgrade error) which im currently trying to overcome.
Also, could it be something with my bootloader, i only run 1.02 or something (will change later if i'm wrong, but i dont think i am, currently trying another flash atm)
do i need a new bootloader, or should i not bother trying cause this probably wouldnt help fixing my problem?
thanks in advance
also, i can't seem to use activesync now either
and FYI im using WM2005 atm
hey, also, can i downgrade if i do upgrade my bootloader
Sounds like a major problem. I haven't tried restoring the bootloader from an SD card so I couldn't give you any direct advice. I'm sure someone with the expertise will be able to help you further.
Downgrading may help but I haven't done this before either.
Good Luck....

Your Radio ROM chip is probably faulty.
Had the same problem (read here)
My device went to repair centre.

Hi All
Been dying to upgrade my Advantage 7501 and try out some of the new ROMS and the new radio on here. Went to the sticky and spent a day browsing the forums to see what I could pick up, even went to how not to brick your device thread. However I am still having issues
First thing I did was remove the SIM and SD cards, I had just reset the device yesterday so I did not reset again. I got a hold of the AthenaWrapper program and it worked as advertised. Getting into bootloader I have:
Athe100
IPL-v2.02
Athe100
SPL-v1.20.Olipro
However, this is where I run into issues. A soft reset does nothing but give me a black screen. I can get into the hard reset screen okay but when I cancel out I get back to the black screen.
Device also does not sync up with Activesync or WMDC?
Not sure what to try next or how to get back on track
Have tried on both Vista and XP.
Anyone have any suggestions
JP
Try to flash a ROM now, starting in bootloader mode. Hold the volume slider to down and then press into the reset hole.
Chooose one (SPL 1.2) from the sticky topic in the athena WM6 section
Progress
Thanks for the reply
Went back and remembered I had to flash the radio first. So I got the 1.57 update and that went as planned. One bullet dodged. Then I went ahead and grabbed some of the ROMs from the located you mentioned and that went thru as well. So it looks like I am back in business. Appreciate it.
PS I see references to SPL 1.2 and 3.5. I also read somewhere that the AP4 upgrader containts 3.5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2825883). Is this just a new version of the same thing?

Just an FYI. I got things to work but not after a few more moments.... I initially tried to update to MichyPrimas 6.1 ROM and it got to 93% complete before bombing with a comm error. That was bad! Went thru the recovery wizard but it basically toasted my model id. Nothing would work. Found a copy of mtty and that did the trick. Just so other know, you need a mac address to run in the mac1.exe program. Some people report having this on the inside of their battery cover. No luck here. I did find it at the router from a connection before I started flashing. A spot of luck there. All went well and I got my model ID back and was able to resume normallly. I flashed the Black Touch PK3 ROM with WM6 for now till I have a bit more time to go to 6.1.
Anyone else have issues with MichyPrima's 6.1 ROM like I did. Looks cool and I want to try it but not if it bombs out on me and I have to mtty my way back all the time.
Cheers

No kind of rom can be installed, error from the romupdate utility from ´wrong unit id´ to ´can´t use this update tool , you need a newer one´ everything, but no rom will install. all hangs after 1% , stock-roms also.
i tried mtty, everything fine until task 32,level =0
then i want to upload the produced file (mac file generated through mac1.exe,spl1.x)
it starts uploading and ends with ´Fail to synchronize with the host (1)´
any ideas `?
ipl-v2.02
spl-v1.20.olipro
nothing works, only bootloader.
i can connect with mtty, but not upload files.
no rom update works..

please people, READ!!!! someone above your post just told you to flash 1.2 rom, in BIG RED LETTERS.
the AP4 is what upgrades you to SPL 3.5, then you won't have a problem with 3.5 roms
(btw good thing this reminds me to release a separate 3.5 SPL upgrader)

please read my really detailed instructions a bit more carefully. I could bet you skipped the part about trying to copy all the files and mtty to C:\ or the step saying click OK for the small popup in mtty. or the warning that you need to type full filename includign the .bin file extension.
also i hope you use the version of mtty i posted
if that's not it, you can also try a different PC
I have posted this problem in other threads as well but I am in desperate need of help here.
I have Imate JasJam Herm100, I am new to ROM upgrading thing. I upgraded to ROM version 3.54.255.3 2 days ago. Everything is working fine but the bluetooth.
I am able to send files on bluetooth even my bluetooth handsfree is working fine, but I am unable to receive any file, I don't know why. Whenever I try to send a file from another phone to my JasJam, this message appears "Sending Failed"
I have even enabled Infrared, also tried receiving after pairing devices but in vane.
Someone please please tell me what to do I really need to figure it out.
