Problem of first time flashing my atom life - iPAQ rw6828, XDA Atom ROM Development

i just wanna upgrade my atom life to 19209 medkid
this is my first time of flashing it.
i just could not...
when i press reset+record button....it just reset but not going to boot loader mode
do i need to unlock something first?
i have tried 1g,2g minisd...
also format the card and just put the firmware..till didn't work

Release the Reset button first, then realease the Record button when the screen is on.

Help I can't turn on ATOM after ROM UPDATE !! :(

yesterday I tried to update the ROM to a new one - WM6 .
I copy into my mini SD the file diskimage_ver.nb0 and I renamed it into diskimg.nb0, after the update my device turned off and I couldn't turn it on.
I pressed the camera button and soft reset so that the bootloader will boot and the PDA turned on! and bootloader appear - but I forgot to copy into the sd card the original ROM so I restart again and I copy to the mini sd card the original ROM files and I pressed the camera button and soft reset to get the bootloader again but the PDA not responding...
(When I connect the PDA to electricity the red light works and when I remove the battery and insert it again the call button and hang up buttons work (green and red light) for 1 second).
Please help me I dont know what to do
Take a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314613
Thanks mightyox I did what jiggs wrote but it's not working
Be paient:
1) take out battery & SIM for a while...5 min is enough.
2) remove SD card( a must )
3) put battery back
4) press the camera button with the "POWER" button.
5) check if boot loader boots.
6) if yes, re-flash your phone with running the update Flash program in Windows environment connected with a USB cable.
Thanks dcoloane but it's not working

I had the same problem yesterday and fixed it.
To get back to the bootloader, do this exactly in chronological order:
1. remove SD Card
2. remove battery
3. hold camera button and reset (stylus) button (without the battery attached)
4. replace battery back while still holding the buttons
This will bring you back to bootloader mode.
When you get into the bootloader,
1. Plug the device to your desktop via usb.
2. Make sure that the Notification area in your desktop at least detects a device. if not, try and try until it does.
3. Download Xda-AtomExec-ENG-20060614_R060428N_EX0028.exe (ancient basic rom for my exec) but in your case, because you have an Atom only, get the one for Atom(not exec) i think this is it http://rapidshare.com/files/40346284/Xda-Atom-ENG-20060426-MOT0822.exe .
4. flash it the usual way.
5. Usualy gets stuck at 6% at the extended ROM upgrade, dont mind it, hard reset it,
6. Enter the bootloader again.
7. Flash your original ROM.

at the repair center they told me to remove the backup battery on the board (if it has one) and put it back... or just to give them with a nice price of 150$they repair it...

Hehehe. It's time to buy an iPhone or Atom Life. hehehe. keep on searching the forum. i'm 99% sure that you'll figure it out somehow. That's how TofClock did it so well. Just search the entire forum.
I'm having the same exact problem. The bootloader is just not coming back up after the camera and reset [it did before but I was trying to downgrade the hack atom exec on my atom pure so the wm6 install utility would work]. I figure I would let my atom sit without the battery for a while with battery out to see if I can get the backup battery to drain down before I try it again. Anyone else have this problem that has a solution??

You are not suppose to rename diskimage_ver.nb0 into diskimg.nb0 without altering the file. That's why they have different names to start with.
The files that came with normal DSUU OS mode flashing have header identifier while the files for SD Card flash do not. It is assumed that you know what you are doing during SD Card flashing, that's why there is no manual or instructions to do it. bootloader mode was meant for device service personnel use only. We use it to hack the ROM.
DO THE FOLLOWING:
1. remove the battery for one minute
2. insert the battery while observing the LED
3. if LED blinks once, your bootloader is okay
4. do as dcoloane says to the detail
IF LED doesn't blink, sorry mate, you toast your device. It's now a paper weight.
Its really strange. When I insert the battery, the orange LED will blink once really quick and charging seems to work also. But when I try to get it into bootloader mode, it just doesnt do anything. This atom pure is my back up phone [have a atom life also] so I guess I will let the battery completely drain out of it before I will try again~_~. As for the renaming, I did the same thing as the atom just couldnt recognize the file and update the rom if you didnt rename it [yeah, yeah.. I"m a noob - the problem isnt upgrading the rom which I have done many time, its the downgrading of the hack atom exec rom on my original atom that screw me up as I couldnt upgrade the wm6 due to the install file wont work as it think its a atom exec instead of the atom pure~_~]
Maybe you have to remove battery for a night to make sure it is dried out.
yeah, just going to wait for my backup battery to run out of juice before I try again. Either that or send it in for the $150 repair~_~.

It's not how long you take out the battery or the amount of battery power. It's how quick you press the bootloader mode buttons after replacing the battery. It has to be immediate; otherwise, it won't work. You also have to hold the button simultaneously for a second.
did that already. It work previously so I know I can get into bootloader. It only stop working after the flashing. Where exactly do you send it in for repair anyway?? Anyone has a tele or address as when I bought it it didnt come with a box or manual.
I found local PDA repair shop...

HELP!HP6828 WM6 flash failed and brick now!HELP!

I download the rom image from pda-hack.net in this url:
http://pda-hack.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=50
as well as the extrom, then fully charge my battery and follow these instructions:
1 diskimg.rar (40,6 Mb) - main OS, decompress this archive in SD Card root directory
2. pda-hack.net_rw68xx_ExtROM_emul.cab (3,97 Mb) - some applications needs ExtROM, this package can emulate it. Install after flash or put it into '\Cabs' directory before flashing for autoinstall
3. To flash press & hold soft-keys, then push reset, after HP logo is appear, release soft-keys and don't touch anything. After flashing device automatic reboot in hard reset.
I don't put the content of cabs.rar into my \Cabs, because I don't want to install these.
I use my 2G sandisk card to flash my 6828. When I boot into bootloader, the hp screen appears with blu1.0.5 at bottom-left cornel for about 20 minutes and then it blacks. I tried to get into bootloader mode but fails, also I tried to hardreset it ,but no response.
Is there a way to resurrect it .THANKS THANKS THANKS!!
Have you removed battery out around 5 to ten mins. and put it back at the same time with quickly go to boothloader like someone siad before?
I think it may help. Coz, I have 2 machines of 6828 me and my friend. One is fine flashing rom to WM 6 but another one meet the problem close to you. After waiting for 45 mins. I decide to remove batt around 5 mins. and bootloader again like what I read from some threat here and it works. I finally finish flash rom to WM6 both.
Good luck.
i managed to resurrect it. Take out battery, wait, press both soft key, at the same time put battery in, wait a second, wait a moment, it will be in bootloader mode.
uh.. anyone can help me?? i have the same problem.. xD

Upgrading to lastest ROM

Guys,
Helpful tip, just hard reset your Atom Life and proceed with upgrade. I used this way after 5 times of unsuccessful tries, after I hard reset, it works!
For every unsuccessful try, I learned so much on how to restore my Atom life from dead device. send me a PM if you need help, hope my solution will work also on you. I will try to detail my experiences and post it here if I have time.
do share here? how u revive the atom life every time?
Do you know how to dump the Radio ROM?

I tried to upgrade my ATOM and after running the ROM upgrade, it is stucked in 0% Stage 4. After an hour, I pulled out the cable and tried to restart the device but it gives me a screen "DSUU". I press the record button+reset and removed the SD Card and choose the option 1 (Start OS) and it gives me a revived status but not Text Message option. I tried again and again and it is the same. Last time i tried, I left my device overnight and nothing happened. But when I pulled out the cable and restart the device, it starts just like before and it gives me the original screen and setup and nothing happened to my ROM Upgrade.
I tried again the upgrade by resetting first the ATOM life into factory settings (HARD RESET) and run the upgrade and everything runs smoothly. Now, everything is fixed, and upgraded and I reinstall again the themes, screens that I want.
Hope this helps.

6828 dead
con't boot when iput the battery red&green button lights on... help me!
In my case. I do any way it can'y start my device. My HP service center tell me it must be change mainboard. But I don't change. But I try to open it again. I found this way.
I think you will try this way as me.
- remove battery in a few minite.
- put battery back again.
- plug a battery charge. (not a cable sync)
- If green and red is on. I think it ok. If it not on, you will try first choice.
- Press both softkey ,power switch, soft reset to start bootloader at the same time. Don't press power switch at first.
I think it can be open your device on to bootloader. Flash it again.

Thankx for your answer. Casually, i was flashing your rom dioxda2 2A, but I make a mistake: when rebuild the nk.nkf (translate in spanish) i select the splash (92000000-Splash.nb) file instead extended rom (9b000000-Extension.nb) file. when finiseh flashing, at the firs reboot, the screen in black. in fact, the device don't respond in anyway...no power, no bootloader.
It seems very bad......

Good luck.
