My Wallaby PW10A1 crashed at disconnecting after using Tom Tom 5 Navigator. The screen started flashing stripes and sync didn't work anymore.
I thought I was lucky, because I made a full backup just the day before. But unfortunately setting back the backup doesn't work, as the device tells me that the backup file is of another type.
Assuming that my problem is not unique, can anyone tell me on what page on this forum I can find a solution.
I found out that I can see all files on the device, nothing seems to be lost. It just doesn't present the OS on the screen.
Extra: I meant that I can find all files via the craddle with Explorer.
Extra: Not via Sync, that program just connects and does nothing extra

I've read the articles about this and that .cab file and this and that .nb file; et. cetera, where they may need to go and a program that everyone was using but the link is now dead. So, how and where do I begin to change the screen? All I want to do is to change my boot screen; that's all, nothing else. Surely it is simple. But I'm not a programmer so please be gentle.
Also a few notes about the latest T-Mobile ROM update:
~If you perform a restore from Sprite and use Resco File Explorer it will no longer recognize the folders for Storage or Storage Card. Neither will ActiveSync. So this is definitely a hard reset without the ability to neatly restore everything quickly.
~Second, the KSE TrueFax program will only connect to very few fax machines. I've only been able to connect to "Brother" style fax machines. None other.
Please help me fix my Boot screen this is horrible.
Thank you,

Hi,
I have an XDA O2 (Wallaby) which I got from a friend of mine who used it without a problem in its life and now I am stuck with a flashing O2 XDA.
Let me try to best describe my problem.
I had copied some of my excel files onto the O2 and then I had a distinct feeling that it had gotten to be much much slower.I am not too sure if this is the cause.
I was not using it as a phone but one day I slipped in my SIM card so as to surf the net and it just would not connect via GPRS and after that it had become very slow hanging every once in a while so I did a soft reset but it still was slow and the GPRS would not connect neither did it detect my phone service provider.I used to surf prevously through GPRS without any problems.
Then I did a hard reset and it just wouldnt work after that it would start with the blue O2 screen and begin to flash on and off with a blank screen with a small keyboard icon in the lower right hand corner presumably the affected excel file....I think my XDA has a virus now please help me out from here.
I tried doing a hard rest and I depressed the reset button on the RHS side that's it(smaller hole bigger one for soft reset) Once I press down with the smaller end of the stylus I press it again then the blue screen with the O2 logo comes to life it stays on for sometime and then a "tink" noise comes and the busy sign comes as if it has just opened an application ..a blue small band on the top most corner and a small keyboard icon on the lower rhs hand of the screen then the screen begins to flash ten seconds apart for quite some time...infact that all it does before shutting down and restarting all over again.
Is there any other way to do a hard reset.What is the right way?? as on one of the forums said that I should depress the power button and the soft reset button at the same time for about 5 sec I tried the hard and something called the WALLABY Bootloader V5.15 came on the screen with the message 'WAIT' after a couple of nail biting seconds I got an error saying GSM ERROR the screen was a clourful white red green and blue strips....what happened??
Then I proceeded to depress the soft reset button it restarted with the usual error of a program being opened and the screen flashing..
Hope to get a reply from this forum.
Take care
Ciao

Hi,
1st off thanks for your reply....
I have downloaded Programme A to upgrade my rom but cant seem to get it loaded onto the SD card. I unzipped osimage.exe and tried to store it from my PC to SD card but cant seem to do it....furthermore I was advised by friends out here not to be a braveheart and venture to kill my XDA but still I'd like to try...you see I'm not to conservant with the software bit and I'm only a end user...
Could you give me a step by step guidance to get the software loaded to the SD card via a card reader and then flashing the rom..
Hope to hear from you....
Alvin
flashing from sd card
Firstly make sure u have winzip winrar or some other compression software on the computer then right click on the programme A exe file and click open with whatever compression program u have i use winrar so i will say open with winrar. You now need to extract all files into a folder.
Once you have done that open up OSimagetool and on source browse for the folder u just extracted the programme A to and look for nk.nbf,you will need to tell it to look for nbf files and not nb1 files , which is the default and select it,it is in the english folder. In the destination u need to select your sd card which should be in a card reader as u cant program it directly to the XDA or via the memory card, once you have done this click copy. when that is finished you need to take the card and place it in the xda and do a cold reset . A screen will appear saying SD Download click the action key on the pad to commence flashing. after a few minutes it will inform you that it has finished. remove the sd card and Cold boot again then once the wallaby has rebooted back to your bootloader screen soft reset it,ignore the gsm error now cross your fingers while you wait to see if it reboots. If it reboots ok set up activesync again and run the radio upgrade. By the Way any info on the sd card should be saved before attempting this as it will be overwritten by the osimage tool. Also only the xda can read the card , the pc will say it needs formatting Good luck
Any Luck
Did you have any luck reflashing with a new rom almaal?
I have followed the procedure. The system rebooted and I got the GSM error which I ignored and continued the process. The system rebooted properly i.e I get to see the start menu and the calendar, but the device does not get detected by activesync. Another thing to note is that the system has become terribly slow. And although the backlight is switched to on it the device keeps on flashing. What do I do now?

wallaby xda flashing
format the sd card then and copy the radio upgrade over to the card. not as an exe file almaal, right click it again then extract files and copy the files over , if u have a cab file including then just use file explorer on the xda to navigate to the storage card and click on it and it will install. If not then click on the rsupgrade.exe. Hope you have more luck with this than i have i had . Good luck

Not charging I think
Hi I dont know what to make of it but now my wallaby came to life with the rom that I flashed but it seems to have gone crazy. Let me best try and explain.
1) The green charge light does not come on when I put it onto the cradle or plug it directly for a charge.
2) It does not make any sound, no beeps no nothing....but when an mp3 is put on it plays
3)The back light does not come on which is enabled but does not work I have to work with a dark screen...is there a brightness control which can be adjusted...its like its on power save mode or something..
Now its back flashing the O2 screen again its become terribly slow and unstable and I have to do a constant reset. How do I know which is my ROM to flash, I've flashed the R.30.07 ENG Rogers (4700 kB available) from http://www.romkitchen.de/WM2003/form.php.
I somehow feel that my O2 is not charging
Can you make any sense of this ..
Alvin
Hi
And another thing is that I trird copying the radio upgrade over to the card and then clicking on rsupgrade.exe. The upgrade fails at 1% giving an error as follows:
Flash Failed!
Press ok to restart your device.
What could be the problem? and how can I fix it?
Thanks
See http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
Regards,
Neil.
Flash Failed
Neilius you have obviously not been through this process, no offence, but as i have tried to ask with a few posts on here it seems when the radio upgrade fails the wallaby refuses to charge. Which i think is the reason the radio upgrade always fails at 1%. Unfortunately nobodys knows or is even interested in finding out why

Hi folks,
Although I am generally not timid about modding certain products (such as my computers and TiVo), I do like to first take my time before diving in until I'm sure I've read most of the relevant threads and have gathered up the complete suite of software tools in one place. The resources on this site and the work of folks such as DCD and nueChem are amazing and outstanding and I want to say thanks for that.
As of yesterday, I felt read to take the plunge installing the bootloader, 3.27 radio ROM and DCD 2.3.2 kitchen build on my XV6800. However, I didn't just go with the stock kitchen. I added a couple of additional OEM packages from Alex.Kaiser.v4.OEM.Packages (the nue LED and audioparam packages and Resco File Explorer 2007 in particular).
The updating went great and I was able to OTA reprogram my phone without needing to call Verizon. However, I noticed that something wasn't right.
First, my phone had no connection data onboard so the phone didn't know to dial #777 for a data link and my attempts to enter this manually didn't give me any success.
Second, my PC wouldn't see the device unless I deselected the "advanced network features" (or similar, I forget the exact wording) checkbox.
Third, I couldn't install CAB files. They'd terminate immediately with an "installation was unsuccessful" message.
Finally, once I was able to establish a connection to the PC, I could add and remove files from the device *only* from the PC. Attempts to delete files from the device itself were met with a file permissions error.
After playing around for a while trying every tweak I could think of, I tried using Resco Explorer and, after a few minutes, got a registration code error/warning message. This made me wonder if this package was the problem: preventing certain types of file access due to it being in a limited-functionality mode from lack of a proper reg code.
So, I rebuilt the ROM without it and now all is well! I'm loving the new dialer and comm manager as well as the active GPS (I've tested it only with Google Maps and GPSToday so far and it gets to within half a block). Not sure how well EV-DO Rev A is working yet. I tethered the phone and ran an online speed check, obtaining 1.2Mbps download but only 60kbps upload. It's possible this is related to my local coverage (Nyack, NY), so I'll try this again from a known-good Rev A area.
Anyway, just wanted to relay my experience in case it proved useful to anyone.
One other thing: I used PIM Backup to backup my data beforehand since my sycing is generally done on my work machine and I was doing the ROM updating from home. Upon restore, it wouldn't restore my email messages because it didn't find the corresponding account. So, it's important to note that this account info isn't backup up and that you first need to create the account before doing the restore step (making sure to name the account the same as before so that it matches up).

HI everyone I am having a major problem with the tomtom7 install it simply hangs right from the start as it displays the progress bar which never moves it just hangs there. I have been working with another user in detail to help he has given me his exact process and files from his working setup but it only gets to the exact same spot
I have tried on two separate sd cards one a lexar 4g card the other a sandisk 16G. I put a raster folder and a voices folder to the root of the storage card and I also place the cab TTN7.450.9028 and then execute the cab from ctotal commander or file explorer. I have tried installing to both the card and the phone with the exact same result I have tried with an RRE ROM and now with EnergyROM3.0 under windows Mobile 6.5 professional I saw a posting elsewhere on XDA about the same thing but it simply said install from a working platform and then it said it was resolved but never mentioned anything about how it was resolved.
I am a noob so I may have missed something basic
currently I don;t think my gps is enabled on my account I wanted to get TT7 installed and then turn it on I have already gone through my 30 day trial but that shouldn't affect the install my radio version is 1.11.25.01 but again I do not know if this would affect the install
Any ideas would be helpful at this point
Check you PM
Just keep waiting for it. TT7 takes forever to install or show some initial progress. I usually plug power in so the phone will stay on, otherwise you just have to keep the screen on for it to install.
Hi, I will describe your problem in a new topic, because I see that it is broader.
Well, on Friday I bought a HTC HD2 wgranym WM 7 Unfortunately, this system will not even suitable to use, so I decided to upload, and in fact you go back to WM 6.5. I found the forum two ways by dropping LEOIMG.nbh file directly to memory card and a second by installing ROM when connected to a PC.
I bought a memory card reader and format the card. I threw the downloaded file from here: Multiupload.com - upload your files to multiple file hosting sites! Do not give it any more with this phone .... Charter installed a phone and pressing the handset, which is used to activate the phone and the VOL DOWN I switched to a mode. First there was a color screen with the specified data to HD2, but then came the white screen that says "loading ..." and nothing happened for an hour. Perhaps this file does not match my HD2, or he do not know.
The second method seemed to me an alternative and downloaded from the official HTC ROM, giving the serial number. Was surprised that it was a ROM for Norway. I do not know well past the phone, so I do not exclude the possibility that the phone is from Norway. I downloaded the ROM, I downloaded the ActiveSync. But I do not know why when you plug the phone activesync can not connect with them. He writes the message "The device was not detected. " I wanted to try and install without ActiveSync, but the installation failed.
I have no strength, like I'm doing everything ok, but I can not fix this for anything WM 7
Sorry for language errors, I used google translate to translate.
Any help thanks in advance.
okay first of all, if your using windows 7 then you dont need activesync. You need "Windows Media Device Centre"
Also, try turning on the phone whilst holding the volume down button. That should take you to bootloader. (3 colour screen).
You should see the word "serial" at the bottom of the screen.
Connect via USB and wait for the drivers to install.
The word "Serial" should then change to "USB".
Then you can flash a ROM via USB. If your phone is network branded then you will need to flash the correct ROM from the HTC site.

You need to take that official ROM, rename it from .exe to .zip, and extract the LEOIMG.nbh file. Place this file in the root directory of your SD card and then go into bootloader like before. This will flash the stock ROM onto your device. Make sure the SD card is fairly low capacity, 2 or 4 GB seems to work best, and formatted for fat32.
Good luck!

The easiest way to reflash is using SD Card method.
If you dont have HSPL installed, you should only use this SD Card method to flash the Correct Stock ROM.
Download your correct stock ROM (you must be sure about this, in order to avoid failure). Ectract the downloaded correct stock ROM using 7zip or Winrar. Find the file named: RUU_signed.nbh and rename it to : leoimg.nbh. Place/copy that file to the root directory of your micro sd card (using card reader). For better result, before doing that, you may format your sd card to FAT 32, and copy only that file for flashing purposes only.
Now, put your sd card back to the phone. Go into bootloader mode (by pressing volume down and power on buttons at the same time). Follow the onscreen instruction. Dont forget, to charge your batter before flashing.
goodluck
Thank you all for your responses. I still have one request to you. The set did not get the CD with drivers for HD2. Has anyone can link to them? Thank you in advance.

The Windows Mobile Devive Center has the drivers for the HD2 in it. So when you download the program and install it to your computer you have the drivers. Go to microsoft.com/getstarted to get the WMDC program.
