how to flash a CLEAN ROM? - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Hello!
I have a problem! My XDA II had WM2003SE, but I've upgraded to WM6.1. I noticed that the SD card wich was working in WM2003SE, with this WM6.1 ROM didn't. So I reinstalled WM2003 and it worked again. The strange thing happened when I've reinstalled again the WM6.1 ROM. The files that I've copied in it's flash memory there were back also, and now I get some errors during startup.
My question is: How can I reinstall a WM6 ROM and also how to clear ALL memory of my XDA II?
Thanks ahead for your help!

Restoring Contacts from SD Card :(

Hello there
I was have WM2003 (ROM 4.0.0.5) , but when I noticed slowness I decided to go back to 3.18, so I used SD Backup wich come with WM2003
I backed up only Contacnts and Appointments
Then , I downgrade to 3.18. I tried to use SD Backup to Restore Contacnts, but when I press "Restore" tab, it gives me
Source: None
Space Needed: None
Soace Available: None
and Button 'Start' is disabled
So I'm stuck I can't restore my contacts. and ActiveSync doesn't have my contacts because I didn't install Outlook, so they are bit sycned
Please guys, tell me how to restore my conacts in PPC2002 from my SD Card...
Regards
save contacts and appointments via the Permenant save, in SETTINGS
works alot faster , and no sd required
Thank you for suggestion
but for now , how to restore the contacts,should I go back to WM2003 ?
BTW, how does permenant save works if there is no memory works without power? are you talking about the new i-mate ppc (XDA II) or Qtek (O2 XDA) ?
Another question , from where did you get 4.00.21 ? and do you still able to upgrade/downgrade using Programme A ?
Last question, If you are using XDA, T-Mobile or Qtek with WM2003 . is it fast enough or PPC2002 is faster ?
Thanks

if you Must have 2002, then i suggest going to 2003 first, save to permenant memory (xda1) then go back to 2002 and restore from it.
that memeory work without power, because its static memory. just like that 1k memory built into most modems, that no one notices.
once u upgrade to 2003, u can only go back to 2002 via bootloader/sd card method. program A wont work.
what 4.00.21?
i liked the 2003, but some games didnt work quite right on it. due to internal timming issues. so i went back to 2002. awaiting the Real final release of 2003.
Thanks so much
I'm now going back to 2003
Permenant Save is really cool, thanks a lot

!!!Storage&Extended ROM - folders DISSAPEARD!!!

Anybody help me, please!
After I tried to use i-mate ROM 1.72, I realised it had some big bugz that causes when U use/install some kinda' applications it freezes totally and when you want reset your device the XDA2 doesn't boot the system, and you just see the bootimage and booting stops. It happens accidentally not depends on you at first sight.
Ok, I thought, I restore the system after a hard reset from my SDCard with XBackup. But after restore (XBackup said: "restore is complete") that freezing happend again. Just the bootimage, not more.
That's why I downgraded the ROM to O2_1.60 and tried to restore my backup file on SDcard created by XBackup. It worked, but it has another problem: after restore process xda2 can't see the 'Storage' and 'Extended_ROM' folders although after hard reset it seemed.
In the registry (\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Storage Manager\Profiles\TRUEFFS_DOC & TRUEFFS_DOC2) everything is normal and values the same than before the hard reset.
So, anybody has an idea what's happend and how can I get to visible this two folders ('Storage' and 'Extended_ROM')?
ROM 1.66
aNOTHER THING:
Has anybody the ROM1.66 in english language?
Can you put it here or give me a link or an ftp site where I can download it? I've been searching for it for 3 days and I can't find it anywhere on the net

Welcome to the club... I have the same problem and NO ONE knows whats wrong... I used Sprite Backup...
I gave up and trying to live without that freacking 16 MB Storage
My current rom is Qtek 1.72
And rom 1.60 won't help it...
:lol:
I have the same problem. After upgrading to 1.66 my "Storage" disappeared. How do I get it back?
Hi,
I spend hours on searching a solution for this in the registry... The only solution is to perform a new hard-reset en re-install everything manually...

Me fixed mine flash that rome which you had during backup, mine was "T-Mobile 1.6.06 rom" and then restore your data.. everything back to normal :wink:

backup without SD card

I want to upgrade my i-mate pocket pc to either wm2003se or wm2005. My problem is that I want to back up everything on my phone first but I do not have a memory card. Is there anyway to backup directly to my computer? If not, how can i find the correct operator code (cellcom in Israel) so I do not have anyproblems putting the new ROM on my phone?

Ext Rom

Is it necesary to update the phone with ext rom also?? Coz i read on the faq that the ext rom has preinstalled programs and i want a fresh new windows that will run smooth not a slow one with all kind of programs. Ive seen some roms that don't come with ext rom so thats why i ask this.
you can always unlock and unhide
the extented rom and remove all cab files you dont want
and hardreset
Ok i sorted it out but i have another dilemma: first i had wm5 with 128ram, then downgraded to wm3 where all the settings were fresh. After wm3 i updated to wm5 with 96 rom but i had the settings and themes from my old wm5 with 128 rom. I repeated the process and it still does the same. How can i get rid of the settings and get a fresh clean start???

[Q] Program icons in Marketplace are incorrect after ROM upgrade to 3.14

Recently I upgraded my HTC ROM from 1.66 to 3.14, followed by restore operation using SPB backup to restore all programs installed from v1.66. However I discovered that almost all of my installed program icons on the Marketplace are not correctly display, it showed the icons from other programs. The program icons on my phone is correct. I did try to uninstalled, clean up all residual files from memory, registry key clean up, then installed again, problem still exist. Anyone how idea how this being resolved? Thanks..
ahknow have you hard reset your phone after upgrading? Because thats what usually what happens after you upgrade your phone. i had the same problem earlier when i upgraded, but after hard reseting my phone every thing work and display properly.
You mean power up again after upgrade? Yes, I did but same problem happen. I have not done any factory reset, that will wipe out all my programs....will be my last steps if no solution coming...
Managed to figure out the problem. Need to clear the "Cache" contain.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders]
This is the default:
"Cache"="\\Windows\\Profiles\\guest\\Temporary Internet Files"
