hi people,
I have wallaby with windows 2003 SE I think and from time to time phone stuck (wont sync etc) and I have to soft reset it, thats not too often, maybe once-twice a day or so, is that enough reason to change win version on the phone, everything other work fine ?
Can anyone tell me about the upgrade or downgrade (I ve read someones post that SE is buggy and 2003 without SE is ok), I ve read that I should "build" my version and after that put it in windows folder on PPC and run it there, does the windows installation have anything with that ROM flashing or Radio flashing you mention a lot here or its just a windows installation ?
Can I destroy wallaby with windows install ?
Thanks people !
perhaps everyone changed wallaby for something newer, this forum looks dead
rom is windows and anything else which is preinstalled
here ppl get roms http://www.romkitchen.de/
and yes you can kill your device by upgrading rom

Perhaps you should read a little bit more in the forum... ;-)
As Rudgear already told you, flashing the ROM of a device could always kill a device.
For Up-/Downgrading the device you can read here about the process:

I upgraded to PC2003 several times, and my XDA always ended up dying after a few weeks, I now use PC2002 and it works perfectly. Never tried PC2003 SE though, is there much to be gained? At the end of the day a stable XDA missing a few features is much better than a buggy XDA with all the features.
still here guys, sorry for my paranoid toughts about dead forum )
Best regards people and thanks !

READ ALL of http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=18584&highlight= BEFORE YOU FLASH YOUR DEVICE!!! You may not want it!
Also note, my device is DEAD after upgrade. It gives a device authentication error.. I am sure it is fixable but it is better to wait...
ugh
Microsoft will Blast us now!
FU^$ MS
F&^K MS. I have spent the equivalent of one month of my time trying to make their software work... LIKE IT SHOULD WORK IF THEY WERE TO DO THEIR DAM JOBS!!!!
If they are not going to support their software, we are going to try.
These "great, powerful, advanced", PDA-Cell phones, SHOULD work but they are full of bugs. Bugs that should not be their if MS had any pride.
Look at every show Bill gates has been on.. There is always a blue screen or crash or some other problem. They are getting lazy and FAT and do not care if their products work. There is not even a place for us to complain... With all the money they are making, they should have some products that work without glitches. Yes, I love MS products and use them every day and they are great and cool, it is just the little imperfections that make a bitter taste.
Sure, I will get shut down, maybe even get into trouble... I do not care. May be someone is listening that can make a difference? :wink:

You are right... :lol:

ROM images with Windows Mobile version 5 (codename MAGNETO) are starting to leak out
March 21, 2005 [Pocket PC phone]
We have information that ROM image with Windows Mobile version 5 (codename "Magneto" also known as "Windows Mobile 2005" although it is not confirmed yet) for HTC Magician has leaked - it works with T-Mobile MDA Compact. And now ROM image with Windows Mobile 5 for HTC Himalaya (aka Xda II, etc) also leaked out:
To learn more or to download these ROM images (setup program, ROM image + ActiveSync 4.0 BETA) click here (you must scroll along the thread to find a working server).
Warning: if you are not an expert in ROM upgrading of HTC devices - don't run this upgrade - it may render your device broken and your device may be never again upgrade-able!
Please observe that currently Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition is powered by Windows Mobile version 4.21 what reflects version of core operating system: Windows CE 4.21 so since Windows Mobile codename Magneto (the name "Windows Mobile 2005" is still uncertain) has core operating system Windows CE 5, it is natural that it will have Windows Mobile version 5 in "about dialog".
Conclusions: last year our sources at Microsoft told us that next version of Windows Mobile will come out in August 2005 and it looks like this date is very close to reality... although we have now some hints that first devices with Windows Mobile version 5 may appear in Autumn/Fall 2005, not in Summer 2005! In any case: first ROM images with Windows Mobile version 5 have just leaked out and we can expect that Microsoft will release SDK (software development kit) for Windows Mobile version 5 very soon - probably MEDC conference or at Tech*Ed this year.

magneto on ipaq?
Hello ,
Does anyone know if we can get magneto on a ipaq 6315?
I just want to try it, and see what it's like?
Would I have to change something in the rom file before i try it?
I looked in my asset viewer and I'm not sure if I need to change the product ID# on the rom or something else?
Does anyone know if magneto will even work on this slow processor?
I'm curious, but i don't want to fu*#-up :? my device.
Thanks in advance.
Similar to what wild1 wrote, my device is DEAD after upgrade. It gives a device authentication error..
Doesanybody know how to recover from this problem? Thanks a million!
Snellius
Apologies, I was too hasty. After rebooting, putting the XDA in bootloader mode it is now accepting a WM2003 downgrade. Problem is fixed I expect.
Thanks anyway.
wm2k5 installation problem
i upgraded my PPC to wm2k5, done all the steps as mentioned, but the device stops at the first blue screen when trying to hard reset it after installation is complete,
i followed all the steps mentioned here, exactly, and still didn't work,
now i have a peace of metal that doesn't accept any OS.
could you help me ??
thanks in advance. :roll:
Hey all,
Finally got my XDA/ Wizard sorted. Can now install ROMs. I installed WM6 but my phone didn't like it, memory wise.
Can anybody recommend a good WM5 rom while please providing a link?
Many thanks in advance.
Ok, I've done a bit more research. God these things aren't easy to figure out.
When I first got my XDA/ Wizard it had a version of Windows 5 installed which was a little buggy. I thought I upgraded but it seems to have "downgraded". It's lost a lot of the features I thought were standard. I'd like to go back to the firmware/ rom which was installed as I've found bug fixes.
I don't know which rom it was, I'm new to all this
If I could describe the boot up perhaps someone might recognise it?
When it booted up, the boot screen there was some kind of Manga/ Final Fantasy type picture of a man and woman, I think. The Windows screen was green with some sort of squiggle/ circle.
I know this is very vague but I know you guys know your stuff
I think it's the 2.26 Wizard Love ROM
Hey Mestrini,
I searched extensively, unfortunately I wasn't exactly sure what I was searching for. I'll try and find the rom you mentioned, thanks.
okay, the Purpose of this Thread is to ultimately find out if i need Active Sync to be up and running while I flash my XDA II to WM5.
Don't try to bash my Head in okay, i'm pretty new here and every search is giving me so much results that it's confusing finding your way through it all.
The ROM i would like to use is "XDA_WM5_3.50aWWE" and i also acquired a copy of the "himaupgradeut_noID.exe" File to bypass the Country ID Check (or whatever it was called).
I believe that this should work... i just need that darn question outta the way before i even dare to try something as delicate as flashing the ONLY XDA i have... not to mention the ONLY phone i have.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oh by the way, if anyone from germany reads this and would like to help me in our native Language, feel free to do so
Yes you do need a computer with Windows XP (not Vista!) and ActiveSync version 4.5 (not older!) to flash WM6 to Himalaya.
success
thanks for the reply
I flashed my Hima to WM6 two days ago and i'm very happy with it
hi, I have a HTC Hermes 100 (I-mate JASJAM) with still the original firmware and has never been upgraded.
I want to try out multiple user made firmware and stick with one for a while, when i get bored with it, change for another. etc.
What do i need to know?
What do i need?
thanks
ryan
PS - I have flashed many devices before but never a mobile phone/PDA, and I run an IT business so don't hesitate on using 'technical' terms
If you haven't done it yet, just start reading here. It's pretty much all you need to know to get you started. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeForBeginners. You basically just need to pay attention to point 1: HardSPL, Flash using MicroSD.
what is HARD SPL?
use the [Easy Hard-Spl v7 beta v0.1] by qwasde2
it,s really usefull i tryed it it,s by me
it,s for win xp and vista and se7en users
i,am not joking here is the link

Hi everyone,
Please can anyone tell me where to find a good and stable ROM for flashing my HTC Tianxi T9188. My brother brought it back from China and left it with me. Unfortunately, I dont understand the Chinese language it came with and need to flash in an English ROM to be able to use the phone.
Its a shame that I have such a nice phone but cant use it due to the language issue.
Please HELP!!!
scratch that...

Well I was actually hoping that you could point me to a link where I can download the ROM from. I have been searching through google but haven't really found any good one so far.
Please help!!!
HTC Tianxi is the China only released version of the HD2. Some differences - CPU, RAM and TD-SCDMA. To me this seems a slightly lower spec'd phone than the HD2.
Check out pdadb.net - run pdacomparer. Doubt there would be any other language version's. At your own risk you could try some HD2 - built roms or ICS Andriod roms.
Thats the problem tx. I was hoping I culd get an English ROM for the HTC Tianxi T9188 and not have to experiment with the HD2 ROMs, considering that both phones have different hardwares. Thats the risk I dont wanna take cos of the possibility of bricking the phone. I did come across an Android ROM though but I can see CHS in the name of the ROM which tells me that it is still a Chinese ROM all the same.
Another problem I am facing is flashing the HardSPL for the Tianxi. It us using SPL 1.27.0000 and I cant find a hardspl flasher which is compatible with it. I have searched here and in other forums and Google and any other place you can think of, still nothing. Have tried the ones I have seen online and always met an error. Any help here will be most appreciated.
And thanks for taking your time to respond.
Check out thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
on SPL,SSPL,HSPL,HSPL2.
If you have SD Card try loading (SD version) in the root and (MAGLDR) boot etc. If that works then it may take NAND versions.
Other than experiment, sorry cant be of more help.
I have tried all the hardspl flashers I can find in the thread you gave ... from HSPL to HSPL4. Non of them could work for the Tianxi. All gave the same BAD ID error and wont flash the HardSPL.
Please help me anyone ... I am getting frustrated by this
Moved to proper forum
