i am very panic...i can't do anything...i just newbie to pocket pc...
Plz HELP me...
p/s :forgive me for my english
sounds and smells like bootloader mode;
get the latest firmware for your PDA from your provider, dock the PDA and let it install.
Don't panic, this happens when you execute this himagetdevice.exe on your XDA.
Put the XDA into the cradle, then execute ON YOUR PC the program himaupgrade.exe that you should find in the extracted zip directory of the ROM you downloaded.
Cheers
Pat
thanks v much.. ...prob solve!!

have you put the device into bootloader :?: mode please refure to this picture hope it helps http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Himalaya_2005_How_to_Hardreset_and_BootLoader
Some people have problems putting the device in Bootloader mode, if that's your case, place the attached file on the same directory as the ROM upgrade and installer.
This will automatically put the device in Bootloader mode.
Good Luck!

Looks like you do not install the ROM.... ;-)
After downloading the Special ROM you have the file in exe format. Since you have currently a "good" Rom installed, just connect your device via Actve Sync and run the exe fiel on your PC....
Follow the instructions,. that´s all.....
Stefan
i don't have ative sync...this just a phone i just need to unlock...but if u can post link to dowload ative sy...thanx for ur time....sooooo basicly u have to synco ur device to ur PC for able to run SPRomv1.2 on ur pc?? also..i looking at xdatool...follow the instrution using the bootloade+osimage....??? what do u think ..thanx agian for ur time
Just search Microsoft fot ActiveSync or the ftp server here. Should be available at many locations.....
You require ACtvice Sync to be able to flash the ROM via Cable.
Other way i described in a short way is explained here:

If you don't rename to eboot.nb0 => Your device didn't flash it => Your device not dead. Have another files in the root folder of miniSD card ? List for me!!!
--Try this way :
Press both softkeys (two "-" keys) and remove battery then insert battery again (don't unpress two softkeys) and softreset, wait 2-3 seconds. It'll go bootloader mode. You can flash your device again.
hmm, tried u way ad didt make it to boot screen..>.<
in case i rename to eboot.nb0 >>i not really sure<<
>>izzit case sencetive?
>>izzit 6828 dead??

What is your current bootloader, 1.01 or 1.05 ?
If you follow that menthod but it didn't go to bootloader, your bootloader was dead.
You can send it to HP to repair, or try this way : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DeadBoot
I recommend to sent it to HP.
while the PDA is still can open and bootloader screen
is 1.01
and im trying to use the EBOOT0502_MNT_01.01.03.nbf which found in the
HP official RUU PC flash ROM
and rename to EBOOT0502_MNT_01.01.03.nb0
then put in the root of memory card
then start to flash ..
now the PDA wouldn't reapond to any button HR, SR, soft-key + reset ...etc
only can charge and orange LED indicated

You was flash wrong bootloader due to make your device dead.
Now you need restore bootloader.
If you send to HP, they will replace board you must pay for it.
But you try the JTAG menthod to restore bootloader it'll make your warranty expired.
thx for all ur answer, i really appreeciated.
btw, for sure hp center will replace a board in it and that will be expensive rite?
if i sent to other shop which is not HP official service, will they do the same?
izzit juz flash using tools they hv>?
and expensive?
Here is what I did ... might help you
Hi
Make sure your phone is powered, it would be wise to charge the phone via AC power at least for 1-2 hours before you try to install anything.
I finally managed to install WM6 on my HP ipaq rw6828. But it wasnt easy, it took me 1 full day to get it installed. Just to help other people who are installing this, here is my experience -
What all I did and how I finally got there -
1.
Tried to install it via PC. When I already had a higher version of the Bootloader installed. Best way is to install it via 1GB mini SD card.
2.
After reading other posts I managed to downgrade the bootloader to version 1.0.1 (not sure of the version number...but its the version you get after installing the HP SP34074).
3.
Once I managed to downgrade. I got into the Bootloader mode on my device( its pretty simple to get into BL mode, make sure you ask someone to help you with it, its easier with two people, to get into Bootloader mode - a)press the two "-" buttons on the phone together. b)While the two "-" are pressed have a second person remove the battery. c) Wait for a few seconds and ask the person to insert the battery back. d)Once the battery is in place ask the second person to use the stylus and push into the soft reset hole (its hole on the left of the USB connecter on the phone). e) Wait for a few seconds and then phone should go into the BL mode. f) release the two "-" buttons after it enters the BL mode. Sometimes for me it entered the BL mode after I released the "-" buttons also. But dont release the "-" buttons till you have pressed into the hole with the stylus.
4.
With my phone now in the BL mode and showing the older version 1.0.1 (not sure but it should not be 1.0.5) I clicked the Device Software Update Utility.exe. I got the screen where you get a combo/dropdown with "ALL" pre-selected. The install step clearly says choose "OS" only and not "ALL". But I made a mistake here, for some reason using the mouse I didnt see any other option in the dropdown accept for "ALL". so I selected ALL and did a next. The setup kicked in and I got different screens showing status of install. But on the final screen it got stuck at 6% and stayed like that for well over 6 hours...I didnt touch the install as the instruction clearly say not to disconnect or stop the exe. But after 6 hours I realized that something is wrong and i killed the Device Software Update Utility.exe file.
5.
I did a soft reset on the phone and to my surprise after a while it loaded WM6....but that was it. Has the install failed in between the WM6 on the phone was totally screwed up...nothing worked properly. I coudnt even get ActiveSync to recogonise my device or connect to it.
6.
I tried the whole sequence mentioned in step 4 again but no luck now Device Software Update Utility.exe would error out I assume it could be because of the BL version 1.0.5. So I thought let downgrade and install the older BL version....but with no active sync i coudnt downgrade the device.
7.
Then i read somewhere SD card boot method to copy the EBOOT0908_MNT_1.00.05.nbf from the SP34074 and rename to eboot.nbo. This didnt work either, am not sure if I renamed the file correctly to .nbo(Orange) or .nb0(zero). Well I dont know whats correct eboot.nbo or eboot.nb0. But since this step didnt work. I was really upset as I felt I was stuck...then GOD had mercy on me and I did something which simply worked ...
8.
I took my mini SD card out connected to my Laptop in the SD card slot with the SD adapter. Did a quickformat to clean it up...if you have data its a good idea to back up the SD card in a seperate folder.
9.
Now I had a clean SD card with no files I downloaded the 1.0.5a (for 68x8) for miniSD. I copied the diskimg.nb0, size : 64,000 KB to the SD card root folder.
10.
Since I was trying the SD card method, I connected the mobile to AC power instead of the PC just to make sure I had enough power for install.
11.
I popped the SD card back into the phone. Removed the phone battery. Then entered into the Bootloader mode (refer to step 3 for getting into BL mode). Well nothing seemed to be happening...but I decided to stay on the BL mode .... to my surprise after 10-15 min i got a message asking my reset and goto factory mode. I wasnt sure if it was asking me to do something or was just a message. While I was wondering...the phone restarted automatically and it loaded WM6 ..asked me to do the tap thing to configure like the initial factory setup .. after all this I poped my SIM inside. Connected the phone to my PC. Active Sync finally recognized my device and synched everthing. Now everything WORKS!!! Though there are some issues like the camera flash doesnt come on.. etc but more or less everything seems to work. I havent tried other applications like email SMS wifi bluetooth etc.. I will post soon my experience weather all main applications work without a glitch...but am so happy my patience paid off..
Thanks to nhocbanme for WM6 version for HP ipqa rw6828, my biggest mistake was not to properly follow steps listed by nhocbanme. For people trying to install WM6 on HP ipaq rw6828....please please use the SD card method...it works and takes less then 30 minutes...you can follow my steps 8,9,10,11 to have a trouble free setup.
Good luck

Hi... my bootloader is dead any I cannot locate the fin out to flash my ipaq rw6828... please tell me where exactly are the pin out for rw6828
Thanks you.
Hi WilliamSun,
if you can go to boot loader it mean you can repair your device. You should download WM5/WM6/WM6.1 ROM that design to flash via mini SD. you can download it from nhocbanme's or hellowordl1's thread, and flash your device again.
Good Luck.
HELP

If your Prophet is working with the new ROM, it appearrantly succeeded. No need to worry....
Keep in mind that there are hunderds of postings each day on this forum. Please don't start new threads if there isn't any real need for it. That way this crowded forum will stay at least a bit readable... THANKS!

Guys I was updating my Old Gene to vanilamanila
but suddenly error 270 occured and my device reset itself and didnt opened anymore.
how can I fix it???
try to upgrade your SPL
hey its by KRAZY ABOUT TECHNOLOGY {senior member XDA} you can find the whole thread
The Step By Step Guide
The Step By Step Guide
CAUTION: DO NOT UPDATE ROM OF A PHONE THAT IS SIM LOCKED. THE RESULTS ARE UNKNOWN BUT MOST OF THE TIMES IT PREVENTS YOU FROM USING THE PHONE ANY FURTHUR!!
If you like to backup your existing rom first, follow this guide by Ankit360 to do it : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...8&postcount=20
Step 1: Download the Tools
-------------------------------
Download the tools zip file from here:
http://www.4shared.com/file/81084740...ing_Tools.html
Its a self extracting file, just start it and give a path and it will unzip all the files in your chosen folder. Inside the extracted folder you will find these things:
1. SPL Updater : Inside it there are 2 folders, Olipro and Orefkov. These contain the two SPL patchers that we need to use.
2. ROM Update Utility : This contains the ROM update utility we will need to flash a ROM. Unzip it into a folder.
3. USBDriver4ActiveSyncVista : This contains a special driver for Windows Mobile Device Center in Vista that you need to use to successfully update your ROM. Unzip it in a folder too.
4. Download a ROM appropriate for your device: Which one is appropriate, you'll only know after updating your SPL. So do this step after that. But in any case, here is a link to a good ROM, created by me, which is available for both new and old gene:
Sumit's Pro Users ROM (WM 6.1, for new and old gene)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467796
Step 2: Preparing your phone
--------------------------------
1. Copy the file gene_hspl.exe from the SPL Updater\Olipro folder that you got in step 1 to the phone memory.
2. First, on your phone, Go to Start > Settings > Connections > USB to PC. Here, uncheck the checkbox : enable advance nerwork functionality. Click OK. Disconnect and Reconnect the USB cable to your pc.
Step 3: Prepare your Computer
--------------------------------
XP Users
----------
There is not much you need to do. Just open task manager and kill the Active Sync executable from the processes tab. Its named as wcescomm.exe.
Vista Users
-------------
You need to take these steps :
1. Go to desktop, right click Computer, and select Manage. Go to Device Manager. Now under the section Mobile Devices, Double Click : Smartphone USB Sync.
2. On the Drivers tab, click "Update Driver..." button. On next screen click : "Browse my computer for driver software".
3. Click : "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computers". Click "Have Disk.." on next screen. Click "Browse..." and go to the folder extracted in step 1. There, go to USBDriverforActiveSyncVista folder. Here select the file "wceusbsh.inf" and click OK.
4. Click Next and finish the wizard.
Step 4: Use the Olipro method first.
-----------------------------------------
Open File manager on your phone. Go to the location on phone memory where you saved gene_hspl.exe. Tap on it to run it. Your phone will restart after a short pause.
Now there are two chances :
a) If its done alright, you'll see SPL 1.10.Olip on your boot screen and your phone will boot just fine. And it confirms that you have an old gene. You do not need to do Step5. Proceed to Step 6.
b) If it doesn't boots, and only green and red keys blink, Don't worry. Your phone is bricked but you'll get it back using orefkov's method in a minute. Proceed to next step. And this confirms that you have a new gene.
Step 5: Use the Orefkov Unlocker
------------------------------------
1. Remove the battery, SIM card and SD Card of your phone and press the Power key for 20 seconds to draw out any residual power from the phone.
2. Replace the battery but not the SIM and SD card, and don't start the phone yet. Press and hold the Camera button and then press the Power button or Soft Reset button. Phone will come to boot loader mode (tricolor screen) and SPL 1.10.Olip will be displayed.
3. Connect the USB cable. The text USB will appear on the bottom of the screen.
4. On PC, go to the folder Orefkov in the folder extracted in step 1 and run the Mtty1_42.exe. Press the button "USB" in the window that opened.
5. In the window that opened, type the following command (don't use copy paste please) and press enter:
Code:
set 32 1
You'll see a response from phone.
6. Type the following command BUT DON'T PRESS ENTER YET:
Code:
ls boot.bin
Note : that is small L and small s in that command, dont mistake it with I.
Now, hold down the Camera button on phone, and press the enter key on computer. After a while, the screen will become White. Continue pressing the Camera button for 10 more seconds.
7. Now release the camera button, close the MTTY program and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe in the same folder, not the one outside it. That one is for RAM flashing that we will use later. Check the boxes in each step and click Next Next and then at last Update. Let it finish the process. Your phone will restart.
8. Now on the splash screen you'll see the info with updated SPL version. The version of SPL will be 1.07.Oref.
Congrats! you have successfully patched your SPL.
Step 6: Flash the ROM
---------------------------
Now let the phone boot once and then shutdown it. Insert your SIM card, but not the SD card. Go to the PC and copy the ROM file (it must be names RUU_Signed.nbh. Rename it if it has some other name.) into the ROM Update Utility folder that is outside the Orefkov and SPL Patcher folder.
Now press and hold the camera button and start your phone to go into the Boot loader mode once again.
Now Run the RomUpdateUtility.exe and follow her instructions. Please make sure that you are not running RomUpdateUtility inside the Orefkov folder in SPL Updater folder. You must use the one outside, in the RomUpdateUtility folder. Your phone will automatically go into bootloader mode and a progress bar will be displayed on both phone and PC. Once it completes, your phone will restart again and you'll get the phone with the brand new ROM.
Step 7 : Set your PC and Phone back to normal
------------------------------------------------
This step is only needed in case you are using Vista.
The driver we updated in Vista will not work for normal active sync operation. So you'll need to set it back to the original version. There are two ways to do that. Either, uninstall and reinstall the Windows Mobile Device Center Or Follow the same procedure gicen in Step 3 but instead on clicking the "Have Disk button", choose the driver from the list already given.
The driver that you need to install can be identified by have a newer version given in front of its name. Also, the newer driver's name includes "Microsoft Corporation" while the older one has only "Microsoft".
You can Put back your SD card now.
On your phone, again go to the Start > Settings > Connections > USB and check the checkbox there and click OK.
That's it! You are Done.

@rockyyy : For heavens sake, do not post full tut in threads like these man, its a waste of space and bandwidth and its annoying to scroll though it everytime. A link to the original post would have done that easily. In case you aren't aware, every post has a number in its top right corner like this one has #8. This number is also a permanent link or permalink to that post and it can be used to refer to it. Just right click on the number and copy the link address.
