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.

but how can i use sprite backup if i cannot install the software ? no acitve sync, no new installations...
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.
Export your SMS to Storage
Try this program and export all your SMS to your Storage: xpocketpc.fw.hu
I get the following errors when cradling my device:
"Failed to Set Up Partnership
An system error has prevented Microsoft ActiveSync from setting up a partnership between your mobile device and this computer.
To set up a partnership, disconnect your device, restart Windows on this computer, and then reconnect your device."
I've done everything like reinstalling and stuff but I still get this error. Anybody encounter anything like this? Before this happend, the unit was happy syncing w/ my pc.
Thanks.
i would try to delete the partnership
Thanks for replying. Tried everything already, short of hard resetting. Had no choice but to hard reset. Now everythings ok. But I still can't figure out why it refused to setup a partnership.

Thanks Jo for the links. Got it working already. Reinstalled the whole damn thing. Anyway, been using some of your cab files from your extrom. Great job. I'm currently using a baseROM from Sin. Don't know if this baseROM is identical w/ that of Dr. Stein's. Sin hasn't answered my pm yet.

Hi, what's the problem when my getdevicedata outcoming txt shows only a U at the beginning and no more information?
I installed active sync 4.0 and I can't browse anymore error no directory /subsomething exits!
last question if I backup data from my pocket pc version. 4.2 can I when upgraded to megneto or 2003se , restore my data?
thx for your help!
Fredddd
rom 1.6 german 12/03/03
radio 1.18
ext rom 1.6.25
1. getdevicedata.txt : copy it to the PC and open it there with notepad
2. Activesync 4.0 : sorry can't help you there
3. your contacts, appointments, ... get synced automatically
files you can copy seperately
Restoring apps & registry is tricky and easily gets you corrupted system.
so it goes, PC was down for a week!
thx for your answer!

Hi all,
I searched the forum and also Google.
Maybe just not the correct words?
I have a new HTC Ameo and gave it WM6.1 Pro MiChY MichyPrima 5.2.20931 (Build 20931.14.0).
Tried both radio 1.57 and 1.58 (current).
The protocol version is 32.91.7020.20H
With my old HTC 9100 and HTC 9000 I can still fully connect to my PC's with ActiveSync.
With my Ameo I can only sync favorites and files.
As soon as I select contacts or calendar it gives the (in-) famous Desktop error.
I already cleared the device but as soon as I import (PIMBackup) or restore (SPB Backup) and the base options of MiChY rom is installed ActiveSync stops working.
I tried both Vista Mobile Sync, an already running WinXP ActiveSync and gone so far on doing install of WinXP fresh VMWare and alsooo SVR2003 with Exchange 2003.
It does not work!
I already tried removing all and let it sync correctly, then remove sync (without cable), resync again and then select one-by-one.
I really like this rom and cannot see other having this same error.
Am I missing something in ROM? Or is there a new update?
Or can I somehow (low-level?) RIP ActiveSync from my 9100 or another ROM?
I also found it could be a known issue with this AKU or something. Cannot find that article anymore but maybe someone does?
Thanks for support!
Anyone???
I also read somewhere else that a MicroSD flash with OEM Rom could help.
Anyone has direct link to Rapidshare T-Mobile (Dutch?) OEM rom?
