Problems after installing htc hotfix - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development

After installing the htc hotfix labelled
'fix for abnormal Nike TouchFLO screen display and keyboard output problems '
I have been having problems with my niki100
I've reflashed the rom serveral times with various versions including Mary, Toms and Gullum's (thanks)
Getting notification errors and buttons not working etc...
Does anybody know if I can remove or reverse that hotfix?
What does it do?
I assume that winmo devices have some area of memory that isn't overwritten when a new rom is installed, is there anyway to access it?
Thanks in advance.

Try to make a hard reset...

Tried a hard reset.
Didn't work.
Can't sync now either

install a original htc rom

Hi
Thanks for suggestion.
I tried installing the original UK Orange rom and it didn't seem to make any difference either.
I'm starting to think its my PC that is causing the problems. I've noticed that programs aren't shutting down in task manager even though they seem to shut down on the desktop. I also had 4 instances of volume for activesync in sound mixer!!!????
I reinstalled WMDC but that doesn't seem to have solved it either.

Did you try to Hard Reset? (I think no)
Press and Hold Camera + Commanager botton and then press Soft reset botton
After that , It will become black screen with some white text , Then press Call botton.
In after few seconds you Prophet will come to life again.
PS. Hard reset may erase all of your data in phone memory.

First off all, I feel sorry for you that your device stopped working the way it should, I mean that. But I wonder why you start this thread claiming the some ROM has killed your Prophet and then tell us that fooled around quite a bit with all kind of unrelated software and flashing.
Did you tried to find out what really causes your trouble? Did you reflash and installed the 3d party software one by one to isolate the one that to blame?
For what it's worth, I'v red about problems with SPB Diary somewhere in one of the treads. As I don't use it myselve I don't recall any details.
Of course!
Even if Hard Reset is not work , You can still flash your phone to Other rom such as PDAVIET , gollum Touch rom or WM5 official rom.
One thing you must check is just what version of the rom (G3 or G4).
ps. I use radio rom 2.69 for a while with no problem. Now I use 2.61 because it use less battery than 2.69 and have more stable on phone signal.(with my operator , True in Thailand)

Just a hunge... did you reset while connected to USB (Active Sync)? That is known to be a problem whit all the WM6 ROM's. It seems that all that helps is an proper HR. And as I added to my previous remark, SPB Diary seems to be a troublemaker too, when used with the new WM6 ROM's, but as I don't use it, I'am not familar with the details.

no, not after Active sync
It is random , it means a little time, after soft reset or after power off device my Jamin load correctly and in more times it hang and stop in Blue page !!
It is very wonderful !!
I am now Hard resetting my device
It is too hard for me to hard resetting my device because all program that i installed are deleted
I don't use backup software because I belleave if a problem is in my device in backup file is come too.
Hello,
If you want to use your phone and not mess around with it , just stop upgrading ,downgrading!! I really mean it. yes of course a hard reset will delete all your files and programs but if you want to care about these stuff , you really have to consider to stop messing with your device. I think if one day your prophet die, you are the person responsible not any ROM.
Just read the wiki / forum, use the search button and you will find what is good for your device, and what's gonna kill your device
about SPB Diary, I've been using this program since i bought my prophet, and i've had no problem with it so far. if you read the forum you will know that after upgrading or downgrading your radio rom you MUST perform a hard reset.
good luck my friend.
I am sorry to hear that.
节哀顺变吧!如果你来广东,我帮你修。可惜你是外国的。
I have the same problem, but my prophet not kiled!!! I'm sure is problem in some programs. I remove the battery and sim card. Wait some time, and back. After that prophet boot normal, but everytime when I power off (and sometimes after softreset) i have to do that. Somtimes help just softreset. I have same problem (not always) with PDAVIET and Gullum rom after installing 3d party software.
Sorry for my english.
I'm realy sad to hear about your problem with the phone but to say that it's the rom is a bit to much although some thing in the rom might give problems it's know that the 6 button homeplug is causing frezz on some devises.... but I have not expirienced any frezz on startup myself... and I have used TNT and all gullum roms .... so maybe the problem is related to IPL/SPL or radio rom not shure or even 3dr party software.. if it's not IPL/SPL or radio rom it must be 3dr party software because I have not installed any of them except for PocketCM by tena

Which programs did you installed?
after 6-7 programs i installed my prophet hang in blue screen page !
I try to load windows after reset my device about 10 times with its pen, and uninstall new program i installed :Resco photo Viewr 6.33 professional edition,SMS group,Sprite mobile...but the problem not solved...and i hard reset my device again
if the problem occur in your device too because of these programs (such as sprite mobile (for prevention of stealing and thief mobile) then we can say the problem is because of this program (sprite mobile-but i know this program is compatible with WM6 ) .
If not it is a bug in TNT ROM that can't install more programs.
or we can say Soft reseting is limited in this ROM for example if soft reset is more that 30 times the windows not loaded !!!
I don't know, but it is a bug in this ROM !! so if this bug is in other W6 ROMs I come back to Aserg AKU 3.13

Dear Gullum
we know that PPC is good for world of different program can be installed in these devices. and we know the programs in the ROM is not sufficient so we installed needed programs.
I know TNT 4 is full of application that non of the other ROMs don't have them.
I try to check some programs I installed in Prophet (TNT-4 -jamin)
the Sprite Mobile program work well, not any other program i installed, only Sprite Mobile...The device work well.
So it is a bug in ROM that can't initializing more program installed then windows not loaded !
if a ROM has this Bug we can't use it !!
we should check all WM6 ROMs and installed more that 10 famous Programs and soft reset every time we install a program.
So which WM6 ROM do u offer to install in our devices to work stable and correctly without this Huge bug that can't install programs !! ?
Thanks for your guidance.
The problem not solved
I installed some programs in my device (Jamin) but this problem appeare after installation, I installed one by one and accure for new problem but after softrest this problem appeare again
GULLUMN plz install some program in ur new ROM if work then put it in public.
only cube & touch version of ROM is not sufficient, we should can install programs on our ROM for more usage !
any body can help?
hi
hi im saeid from iran.
ebaskar
my device is to you
after 24 to 72 hours my my device drive is cleared!!!
all data loosed!!!

its virus on your memory card.
after any hard reset
you opening SD card and installing some programs...
this virus is run!!!
please format your sd card and close of device
so press camera and commanager button and press soft reset...
after black screen prees green key(call)
your devise is wholesome!!!
excuse me
my english is bad
I think i understand ur problem and yes its the rom to blame after flashing a next rom I did not have this problem well the solution was when u install any programs to your storage card remove the .ink files from Windows/Programs folder of all applications thats installed on the SD card and from startup folder after doing that it works well but as soon as I installed a program or tryed to make a shortcut it gives problems I suggest that you ether flash a next rom and problem salved or get a rom cook to edit the rom and fix it up to remove this bug hope it helps you can try it u got nothing to lose

OS keeps corrupting

I've recently tried a couple of WM6.1 roms on my 838pro (Pays 3.05 full and RanDomIze Final Storm v2.10") and they both work for a while, but after some time (twice in the middle of an installation, but not always) most of my shortcuts stop working, and if I soft reset the device won't boot (doesn't reach windows loading).
Is anyone aware of this happening before, and any way to fix it?
Thank you!
I upgraded to 6.1 and it worked fine, but after a few hours while installing a game it basically did what you described.
Now it won't boot into the OS, what did you do to get an OS workin again?
I figured out how to reinstall WM6.1, I tried another release and it did the same thing. It's weird it works fine until you sync it with a pc and start transfering things, both times it was after transfering from my xp desktop but my Vista Laptop seems to not cause this corruption, i'll keep testing
Have the same problem with a large number of 6.1 OSes. Found yo can sync with your computer BUT only leave it for as long as you'"re doing stuff then disconnct. this seems to stop it stuffing up my phone as the ONLY thing you can do once the OS dies is reload the OS with another flash( had an error message come up saying that a program wsnt signed with a proper cert or some such and it automatically goes back to factory reset). Since only syncing when I need to it seems to not have problems. Just means I need another power point to recharge my hermes. Cheers.
I had the same problem until I loaded CRC's 6.1 V8. I have been running it for about a week with no problems at all. Be sure to delete all devices in Activesync before you connect to use Activesync.

Yeah, that's the only one that's kept working for me so far!
i do suggest that you guys do a check for bad blocks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=377389
although i have heard that a rom flash *might* be able to fix bad blocks, dont take my word on that though
with the bad blocks, if you do have it, wouldn't it not matter if you are running wm5, wm6 or wm6.1? they would all crash, mess up eventually?
I will try checking mine for bad blocks, but I didn't have any problems with wm5, upgraded to wm6.1 PAYS, had constant freezes, crashes, hard resets, etc...this was after I installed programs. If I didn't install anything, it would be ok. Although it's not like installed crazy programs, the usual google maps, today agenda, etc... maybe three or four programs.
Now downgraded to wm6, installed more things, no problems. (knock on wood)
it could be possible that you just had a bad flash with the 6.1 rom. or it could be just possible that one of your apps did not agree too well with 6.1. happened to me too, i somehow forgot that i had wm6.1 and installed an app that was not compatible with 6.1

Weird problem, can any pro help?

Hey everyone,
My hermes (which i replaced due to this and got a new one, same prob. so i guess its not a hardware thing) is dying on me after a day or two of usage.
it works fine after a HR, then somewhere within the following 24-48 hours it starts accumilating bugs (start menu wont open, htc home tabs going weird, programs folder is nowhere to be found and all kinds of weird stuff).
resetting the device (soft) always hangs at the same point - splash screen just after showing the rom version numbers.
i've tried to find bad blocks using mtty and it says my device is mint - no bad blocks whatsoever...
im on hardspl 1.30 i think, sim free and cid unlocked, tried several roms and several radios that have worked for me before (on my older device).
any ideads?
do hard reset then put the apps you like on one at a time. if there is a conflict somewhere it will show up soon after the problem app is installed. might be a couple of apps so it may take awhile to work out what one(s)..... cheers
This sounds like the problem that is cropping up lately after installing a 6.1 ROM. It is fixable by first installing an official (the official Dopod ROM is a popular favorite) ROM and then installing your ROM of choice. Current wisdom is that it has something to do with superstorage. Anyway, flash an official ROM first and see if that fixes it.

PPCKitchen 5067 and 3.49 ISSUE

I have had a issue that as soon as i flashed my rom, right after the calibration the screen would go white and the phone just hangs. I have narrowed it down to "O2 Plus". Both 5067 and 3.49 versions just do not work with it. I hope it helps someone else having the same problem.
This was already answered on your post on the ppcgeeks forum, but you probably just need to hard reset (soft left + soft right + reset) and then take your battery out for a minute or so; all of no2chem's roms sometimes have to have this done on install because of some non-standard optimizations he made.
After no2chems 5067 uninstall and reinstall the msi installer and running the
updater I still get the kitchen opening saying both OEM titan cameras are selected.
I never had a chance to select a single item so the download to my pc via
the update utility looks like it contains a error of some kind.
I even tried the same on another clean PC but same double camera problem.
Has anyone used no2chem 5067 wm61 lately as of 7-7-08.
thanks,
Michael

Help!! Unusual Titan problem!!

I have spent the past week on this problem , including reading ppcgeeks & ppckitchen threads for hooouuuurrrs. And still no working phone!
What I have: ActiveSync 4.5 on an XP desktop. I successfully RUU WM6.1 onto my Alltel PPC6800, had the upgraded radio, internal GPS worked.
The problem:
From the Bootloader screen, without ActiveSync, I flash a ROM. After RUU says it was successful the Mogul resets. No LEDs light up and the screen stays off. I Hard Reset. The Green LED comes on and stays on.
I’ve removed the battery and Hard Rest and Soft Reset with the result being that just the Green LED stays on.
Whenever I use the RUU the current ROM version on the phone is not displayed. But the RUU lets me continue.
I can always get the Bootloader (tri-color) screen, which has:
TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40.Olipro
CPLD-9
After re-flashing the stock WM 6.1 ROM, the phone gets into a reset loop with nothing displayed on the screen and the Green LED blinking.
I’ve re-flashed 2 previous Kitchen ROMs that worked originally.. No change.
I’ve removed and then reinstalled ActiveSync. Rebooted XP. Still no connection.
I’ve removed and reinstalled PPCKitchen with successful updating. Rebooted XP. No change.
I’ve tried to flash from my fats formatted 2gb SD with renaming RUU_signed.ngh to “TITAIMG.nbh” and copying it. Got the Grey screen with progress bar. Then Hard Reset. No change.
I’ve tried every combination of Soft reset, Hard reset, battery removed combination with each ROM flash.
I’ve tried the Titan Exit Bootloader exe. This was successfully executed but did not solve the problem.
I’ve tried flashing the radio but I get a Bad Command error.
Update: In an attempt to diagnose the source of the problem by eliminating my cooked ROMs as the problem, using the SD method, I Flashed third parson's cooked Alltel ROM.
By all indicators the Flash was successful. I have Hard Rest (pushing the "R" then "space bar" when told to do so) several times. (Once I removed the battery for several minutes then Hard Reset.) But I still have the same problem of after Hard Reset the Green LED stays on and the screen appears to be off.
Since I am having the same results with my cooked ROMs I believe that my Bootloadeer and ROMs are OK. (Looking for confirmation here.)
Then is the problem with the radio? Or is it a hardware problem?
Any help is appreciated!!
Maybe try updating the radio? As far as I remember there were a few radio versions that did have internal GPS enabled but are still incompatible with the latest ROMs.
What radio version are you running now?

Sounds like you need to just flash a new radio to your phone.... I had the same problem at one time and that fixed it...
Problem solved??
Skippyd, Thanks for the suggestion!!
Interesting Update: I started to take more risks. (All flashing was done by SD method.)
I re-flashed radio 3.42.50. Although the flash was completed there was no change in results. I re-flashed both ROMs that had worked and ones that had no change. And still no change.
Then I decided to flash any ROMs made for Alltel (Titan) that I could find. (I wasn't really seeing if the ROMs had radios in them.)
I flashed nueROM_MTitan-201-201-spackr.rar which booted to the 2nd splash screen [AAAHHH!!! something different!!!] The following information also appeared on the screen:
Nuekernel 3.01
Build 109(c) 2008 No2chem
High Mem (camera disabled)
HTC
M09
B03
P=DCAAXAM 4350H
R=3.42.50
D=3.56
After resets and re-flashes of this ROM I could not get past the 2nd. Splash screen.
I next went to the link from: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=22132&highlight=boot+stop+splash (post # 3)
I flashed: Alltel_titan_20273_a2.rar . However, the result was the same as my original problem.
I skipped the .exe file that was in the list.
Then I flashed Nex_5054.8_Alltel_b3.rar and SUCCESS!!! It booted. (I did not install any of the CABs listed on the screen.) I can enter all of the menues. I don't know if GPS still works. The green LED flashes like it did when I could use the phone. (I can't use the phone now because I reactivated my old phone.)
I have not tried these other ROMs that are also listed:
Nex_5054_Alltel_b2.rar
Nex_5054_Alltel_spb'd.rar
Nex_Alltel_dcd_3.0.0.rar
Nex_Alltel_superBB_chick.rar
Before I do any more test-flashes, can anyone tell me:
#1) what additional information I should copy off my phone before I try these other ROMs?
#2) can anyone tell me the differences in the ROM that works and the ones that did not (so I know why Nex_5054.8_Alltel_b3.rar works)?
And #3) Does anyone have any suggestions before I proceed with testing other ROMs or try cooking my own again?
Thanks, in advance, for your help!
