Hi,
I have updated my O2 XDA ROM ver 3.something to 4.00.16 T-Mobile(withProgrammA) and sence then I am unable to update it anymore. The Active sync is working fine with the USB connection, but the ProgrammeA is saying: error getting connnectiontype. I have try it on 2 different computers under w2k and wxp, the problem was the same.
I would like to upgrade it cos is frosing dayly, and the xda-developers ROM was better )))
Thanks, all the best
Have you tried going back to your original rom, then going from there?
Hi,
The ProgrammeA thus't connect a cannot update the ROM how can I go back to the original ROM ?
I know about bootable SDCard but I would prefer not to use it, so I check up for other possibilities :?

Active Sync problem?
Hi Flare,
I don't know if this will be the case for you but have observed connection issues between updates with ActiveSync ver 4.71. I found that I needed to TOTALLY remove, not upgrade / downgrade ActiveSync then re-install the original from your CD [probably ver 4.5]
If you don't have it you need to try and get it, because while it provides other problems of its own in connection messages it appears more robust in file transfer.
If you cannot adequately remove AS 4.71 then you need to delete the folder under program files and start again.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,
David
According to the notes on the ROM Kitchen, you can't update from 4.00.10 or 4.00.16 using Programme A. What you can do, however, is cook an .nb1 file and put it onto an SD Card and use the bootloader. Of course this will require a 32 MB SD card and an appropriate USB or PC Card reader to get the new ROM onto the SD card.
HI together, :?
I`m new in this forum and found it because I have a issue I don`t get rid of. I have 2500 sms messages on my xda and want to sell it to get a new one. My problem is I don`t want to delete my whole sms messages as there are so many important one I can`t delete as I need them documented.
I installed now the SMS Export tool from yorch.net as I red in this forum here that I should be able to get this done with this tool.
Problem is that I´m not able to get it done successfully.
1. I downloaded the tool and installed it from my PC over Active Sync on my xda.
2. I can see the SMSExport.vce file in my root folder on my xda
3. I can see the VICERT.vce and Visual CE.unload file under /windows
Problem is now that I need asistance how I can use the tool now ?
1. If I start the VICERT.vce file I get the msg "Run VisualCE.exe to create a form"
2. If I run Visual CE.unload file as I don`t see a exe I get the msg that there is no application assigned to the file?
3. If I riun the SMSExport.vce file I get a programm called SMS Export Utility in front of me where I don`t know how to handle to get the sms messages on my local PC.
My aim is to read the sms messages on my local pc (word or txt file) and burn it as backup on a cd.
I would really appreciate any help as I spent hours already on this topic and I`m not smart enough to get it done.
Thanks in advance...
I faced the same problem, I've searched all over this forum, but until late, I used this software : Smart Phone Studio (http://smartdev.51.net/)
It lets you save all your SMS from phone to PC, and you can also save them on text files with nice formatting :wink:
You can also backup SMS from your device, and restore them from the PC at anytime you want!!! :lol:
ah I forgot to tell that it also works for XDAs, regardless of its name

Thanks for fast response ...
Do you have the program on your local machine to send it to me via email ? I`m not able to download the program as there is no version available at the moment ...
I'd appreciate a copy as well if possible.
Oops! its not available on the site & its not free anymore!!!!!
But don't worry, I will send u a copy of it when I come back home..
Ok, here is the file..
Simple steps to run it:
1. Change your PC date to March 2004.
2. Copy SPStudio.exe to your PC & run it.
3. Copy CommMan.exe to your pocket PC & run it.
4. Just click on the buttons at the left panel to access your SMS messages & use FILE menu to export/import messages.
Cheers :lol:
Thanks. I appreciate it. :lol:
Thhhhhhhhhhhhhhanks ... it is working. I really appreciate your time to help me. Just saved thousands of sms .... really cool. Have a great time.

You are most welcome guys
I've recently found a software which synchronizes you SMS with MS Outlook! SMS Sync for Outlook:
http://www.v2r-advanced.com/SMSSync.html
I wonder why Microsoft does not support synchronize SMS with ActiveSync, much like emails :?
I've found a new software which transforms your SMS messages into emails, which then can be easily synchronized with the PC

anyone tested it ????
download source for spstudio (expiring by april 2004)
after some browsing the web i have found an alternative download source for the famous spstudio:
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/cooldownloads/SPStudio.zip
you probably have to register at coolsmartphone.com (its for free) before you are allowed to download files.
also consider the hints given above (setting back the date of your pc to march 2004 etc.) for getting the tool working.
enjoy

help...
i am also desperately trying to backup valuable sms. unfortunately i need to back them up since i need to reset my device cause active sync is no longer working ..BIG PROBLEM...i cannot use any of the above tools without active sync.
any ideas how i can get the sms off my MDA without active sync???
thanks
woody
Since your active sync is not working, you can try to backup your files to SD card (use Sprite Backup or anything else to do so) and then you can hard reset your device safely..
Make sure it is the latest version of sprite backup, that software caused nightmares for me, after restoring I could not recieve or send sms so please be sure you get the latest fixed version.

if you can find it as a cab file you can copy it to your sdcard and run it from your xda
SMS Sync Outlook
Hello, Regarding the SMS Sync Outlook...one of the requirements was having Outlook 2003. I still use Outlook 2002, does it matter? Don't really want to upgrade to 2003 yet as there might still be some bugs. Any thoughts anyone?
Thanks,
Bree :?:
Hi Bree (Kabayan?)
I am using Outlook 2003 for several months and as of this moment no problems or bugs yet.

By first flashing with the 2.02.t1WWE ROM (& 1.18.00 Radio + Extended ROM), then setting up BT and detecting all devices but before adding additional software, I ran an ActiveSync backup. The reason I used ActiveSync was to capture the registry and system state but not an image of the whole ROM.
I then flashed with the 2.06.00WWE ROM + 1.18.00 Radio & Extended ROM, but this time I restored from the ActiveSync backup. Rather than what I expected (everything good about 2.06 to be blown away), ActiveSync restore did a merge of the 2 registries and overwrote the files not in use.
The end result came as a surprise:
I now have a version 2.06.00WWE that doesn't hang/delay on reboot, runs faster, looks great with cleartype and now has BT Handsfree as an option. Handsfree works great, though still blocks ActiveSync via BT (a reboot auto disables it) but it doesn't interfere with the radio now.
Are you sure they didn't just rename BT Handsfree in 2.02t1WWE to BT Headset in 2.06.00WWE? (same functionality, just no menu option in the later)
The reason I'm posting this, is not to produce a backup file for installation, but to give those of us playing around with the ROMS's food for thought.
I'm curious what would happen if someone installed an English version, deleted Media player 9 & it's registry as much as possible, then backed up. Then installed the Chinese version (2.20.07CHS with Media Player 10) and restored the original backup over it.
Would you end up with a combined Chinese version in English with Media Player 10?
(Before you ask why I don't try it myself - I need a break so I'm going back to work )

and if your not using the flashmans files then delete those flashmans file on startup... now ive left in my startup are the "CheckAutoRun, ChgDfLnk, IA_Caller_ID, poutlok, RegNotify, stk" and makes your PPC fast. Try it...
Just install the 2.02 WM2003SE DCS Rom then use activesync backup.. (Dont install anything after the 2.02 was installed just backup after upgraded to 2.02) after the activesync backup were completed reflash again, use the 2.06 WM2003SE Mamaich Rom then Restore the backuped files from activesync... then delete those flashmans... then VOILA!!!
Result: Fast and Stable, For me no hangs for reboot fast load when reboot and more stable... (For me... i dont know for you...)
Just try...
mines working the way i want it ( no hangs etc ) for more than a week now...got tired on reflashing and flashing...im testing the whole phone to the extreme ( calls, texts, games, movies, etc ) since the last time i flash and so far, its quite stable...
the reason : i just streamlined the today plugins to the one designed to run on SE ( RhinoCode plugins ) , thou i got a near-full ExtendedROm with extended-extended ROm ( \storage ), i dont even get unplanned soft resets till now... :wink:
this is my experience so far....

Perhaps you can upload both registries so we can do a comparison to see what is the difference between the 2 registries. Worth the check, if it does solve a few problems for those installed with either 2.02 or 2.06 ROM.

Henry
err, i wouldn't delete those "flashman" applications, as they're not from, lol, shockwave flash player.. those are there to detect inserted SD/MMC/CF cards as far as i know...

Interestingly enough, there's a posting that suggests that there is actual difference in the registry settings of 2.06 versus 2.02 ROM...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13820&highlight=
Perhaps we should pursure the registry differences between the 2 if it does make our ROM more stable?

i managed to gain additional bar of Radio signal strength here in Pi. How? read and download the radio stack here . Thanks to Zman for trying... :wink:
Can anyone post or PM the last release of Caller ID ??
My 1.0 ITA is not consistent, so I would like to try out a more recent release... ITA or WWE are both welcome.
thanks
version 1.20 may be the last version.
here you go
Thanks, but...
thanks guys, I tried both.
But:
ITA is the same I have (the about window says 1.00)
WWE looks to have dbase compatibility problems with contacts: gives a contact dbase read error
Thanks anyway.
cool, didn't know 1.20 works on Himalaya, but it does as long as you overwrite all the files
Now I can remove Ringtonex
i tried thw WWE version ! but it hard-resets my XDAII 1.66WWE !!!
thanx to the backup!
is there an offical version of Caller ID?
thanx
Files and structures changed in 1.20. So if you just run the cab on your device . there will be some files left over from previous versions which didn't got overwrite. They may (or may not) cause problems.
BTW if you don't wanna hard-reset to clear all those files. You have to remove it manually before you install 1.20 cab.

Bcz the old IA CALLER ID is still running and you didn't delete it files that's why it's working with you.
First of all delete the IA caller Id shortcut from the \WINDOWS\Startup , reboot the ppc, then delete the files manually as it's posted before in this thread.
Good luck..
Following instructions step by step this worked perfectly.
