??? way you would like to unzip a radio on your device???
You will need to run the installation from your pc
But in case of, WinZip have a mobile application.

Thanks for your answer...
its because i have the "jumping to kernel(custom)" problem and i've read that this occured as long you have the wrong radio rom. True?
But cause im at work now i dont have access to a computer so i wanted to run from my device... but as you said i have to run from a pc i definetly have to wait until i'm home...
thought i could solve it a way quicker

You don't have to wait, you can flash radios perfectly well from sd card

WM2003SE for iMate Pocket PC (asia)

Hi Folks,
I'm using iMate pocket PC which i bought from India. Its awesome while sync with my exchange server and get me entire mailbox of mine to the device.
I also want to check whether i can enjoy the WM2003SE on this device. I have been reading quite a few posts on WM2003SE for XDA here (i'm not sure whether this is the right forum to talk bout the iMate; however, i tried coz i seen a category for HTC).
I know for sure that the vendor has not yet published WM2003SE for iMate PPC. however, Could anybody please let me know if i can upgrade my iMate to WM2003SE (i'm crezy about it and a couple of days back i just decided to use one of the upgrade from this site and somehow cud hold myself as i cud not predict what its going to do with my device ). If its possibel, from where shall I get the upgrade?
thanks in advance.

Hi Columbus,
thanks for the response,
Wud this upgrade work with the iMate Pocket PC from India?
thats what is the concern for me. I have seen threads where we need to modify the .nbf files for the operator / country codes. Do i need to modify the .nbf file for this upgrade?

From Today screen, goto START/Settings/System/Device Information.
What's your ROM version/date, Radio version etc?
You can search and check out DCS posting on how to check the operator code on the .nbf files and your devices.
Alternatively, if you are not too worry about changing the operator code (since the upgrade to WM2003SE voids warranty anyway), you can run the upgrade only with HimaUpgradeUt.exe (remove the HimaGetDeviceData.exe and HimaClearJumpCode.exe).
There exists many tutorials/tips from people who have tried the upgrade, so have a good read and copy the important tips.
Some general tips from me:
(a) Backup all your important data (calendar schedule, docs, contacts etc)
(b) Be mentally prepared to spend quite awhile doing the upgrade. Smooth upgrade -> 1-2 hours, Error-prone upgrade -> 1-2 days.
Do not rush, or you will find that 99% of the time, the error happens because you are careless. Always clarify, clarify, clarify.
(c) If encounter errors, copy the sequence of events, EXACT error messages, search for similar errors reported here. If unable to find, post your errors to request for urgent help!
(d) Also, if you have the luxury of a spare phone, keep that handy in case your mobile phone connectivity is indispensable to you.
(e) If all else fails, be prepared for a downgrade back to the original ROM. Remember to download the original WM2003 ROM package as well.
good luck!

Now it's clear that there is some problems in the connection. i tried it on several computers but i faced the same problem. is there any setting on my pocket pc to change??
Please somebody helps me i really need to know how to solve the problem.

Try searching the forum.
It´s an old problem copncerning to some T-Mobile ROMs
You have to flash your device via SD-Card....
Try also some looking in the wiki. The process how to flash vi SD-Card is there described...
And please do not post multiple threads with the same topic....

ROM Upgrade communication error
Yeah I am having the same problem after installing the T-Mobile ROM, the same communication error when I try and change the installed ROM Image.
I did think it was something wrong with ActiveSync or my laptop :twisted:
Has anyone got any hints on how to do this on a Wannaby? (Saves me getting the wrong idea whilst reading through reams of text).
Many Thanks
Yes i have upgradet my rom via sd card and it worked. it is easy....
Any way thanks so much buddies... tell me something, is there a place in this forum where i can download the windows mobile 2005 version?
2005
I am abit of a newby to this site. I havent seen 2005 yet. Can I ask where I can find instructions for writing an SD card and how to apply to my PDA?
Andy - Whos scratching round for an SD card
ROM Version
Ahh, I see from other threads, ROM Version 4.01.16 prohibits upgrade via EXE! Damn! Ive just checked and thats what I have installed!
The T-Mobile image I'm using at the moment is very slow and comes up with application errors occasionally :x

Hmm doesnt work for me. I am selecting the browse button to select the nbf file from the image and in the second drop down box selecting the sd card. When I press copy it comes up with the error ITWriteSDCard: The media is write protected, error opening target device. The card isnt locked as I can read and write files to it using explorer. Whats going on?!?!
Growing frustration!!!

Some internal SD-Card Writer make problems. i Think you can use also the SD-Card-Slot in your devuce, or you have to get an external Writer...

hmnmmm..how use this rom??which one i have choose at romkitchen.de??
im still dont understand bout WM5,,WM5 its same with WM2003???
you pick the one you like to have
about wm5 then no wm5 is very very different from wm2003
with wm2003 the memory is devided between storing data
and running programs
in wm5 all! ram is for applications
and flash is for storing data on
on later devices then wallaby the user can access flash to put data on
on wallaby you cant
so even if somebody spend the months it would prob take to make a rom for wallaby one would not even be able to put a contact or phone number on it
let alone a program to make application memory into storage
oh..thanks..i already cook the roms,,,its working fine...

UPGRADING ROM (Newbie !)

Hello,
My SPV M1000 (Himalaya) has WM5, and i was thinking about upgrading to Windows Mobile 6. But there were a few questions as i'm new to all this !
1) Which is the best WM6 ROM to use as there seems to be a few ?
2) How do i upgrade the ROM ???, (in English please as i'm not very up on all this!). Do i download the ROM to my SD card and run the .exe from there on the Pocket PC (or on the home computer) ?
3) Are these ROMs reversible incase there is some kind of error ?
I'm having issues with the phone feature on my M1000 (phone wont work at all !), so i am hoping an upgrade to WM6 (or even reflashing the ROM to WM5 will solve this ?
Best Regards,
Andrew
1 matter of taste as the diff is in general which programs are preinstalled in the rom
2 all roms rar or zip packet include a readme.txt which describe step by step how one install them and all any of us can do is to copy paste the content of that file..
Ahh, cheers for the info Rudegar !. Much appreciated,
Andy

Newbie needs help

Hello ,just joined as i thought this was a cracking site with loads of info and the best place to find help .I have just bought a hd2 as i wanted the latest windows based mobile with a very large screen as i often use memory map and tom tom together ,i have been using both on the XDA ii with out any problems but the trouble was it had a seperate gps reciever ,also the camera was'nt very good .
Couple of questions i need help with please
I have installed memory map and it seems to run fine but is there a way of rotataing the screen on the hd2 from potrait to landscape ?
I have TomTom 7 Version 7.915 PPC ,will this work on the hd2 and is it as easy to install as it was on the XDAii i had ?
I am not very technicaly minded with these things so a very simple guide is what i am looking for .
I have used the search function but not with any success
Thanks in advance
Anyone help please?
You have to be careful which version of TomTom you install.
Here is the 7.917 version which will work with your HD2 - * TomTom v7.917 *
obviously you still need to buy the maps - as this site does not allow warez.
Sorry, I've no idea about Memory Map.

Plenty of ways of doing that: -
BSB Tweaks - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305
Gyrator - http://gyrator.brins0.net/
and probably some others I've forgotten
Try the search function on the forum. "rotation" and "search thread titles" turned up these results - http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=41837256
PS - Speaking from my own experience, I can confirm rotation of Memory map works using BSB Tweaks.
Brilliant guys, just what i was looking for
I have just installed tomtom and it works fine
Just off to have a look about rotating memory map
Many thanks and no doubt i will be back for more help
Can i install the bsb tweaks straight to my phone and everything will carry on working or will i need to reinstall memory map and tomtom after ?
Install BSB & carry on. No need to reinstall Memory Map, etc.
Trying to install bsb tweaks as you have mentioned ,i am trying to follow the video about flashing a custom rom mentioned on another thread , but when i attempt to run the custom ruu ( i downloaded it from this site seperate as one did'nt come with the BsB tweakes ) it keeps telling me" cant install check update utility "
This is what is on my screen
PB8110 XH-BC
SPL-1.66 HSPL XE
0x5
CotulllaHSPL 0x30
I have noticed that the spl is different on the video ,will that make a difference and how do i change it ?
Thanks again

spl doesnt matter so long as it ends '.hspl'
The error you got sounds like you havent put the roms.nbh file in the same folder with customruu.exe.
Just those two files in a folder on their own.
BUT you do know bsbtweaks isnt a rom, right? its a program that you install like any other, nothing to do with customruu.

No did'nt know that ,how do i install the bsbtweakes program ?
Told you i was no good at these things
like all programs. Copy the .cab file to your phone, anywhere (most people have a folder on their sd card for such purposes) then on the phone open up file manager, browse to where the file is, and click it to run it.
Thanks very much
I have installed all these to the sd card
Setup.xml
000bsbtw.001
00tweaks.000
0cab4a7.004
manila 1.002
openne 1.003
When i run the setup file it takes me to opera .nut nothing happens
If i try to open anything else i get the message ,"there is no application associated ,run the application first .
Dont know what i am doing wrong ,someone please help ?
nope, you have extracted the cab. (The pc thinks cab files are a type of zip file)
Dont do that. Copy the single cab file (bsbtweaks.cab or whatever it is called) to the phone and click it to run.
Cheers for the help yet again ,i have installed it and it seemed to install correctly ,yet when i ran the application it said it needs a newer version of microsoft for it to work ,any idea what i need now ?
Thanks again for your help
sorry, never seen that before. does it work? if it does ignore the warning.
Just figured it out ,there is another file that i needed to upload and it is just the bsbtweake cab file ,many many thanks for your help again
ahhh microsoft framework, thats a different thing.
heres teh microsoft download page for it
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en
though i think there is a much smaller version (the one above is 33meg) available on xda dev somewhere.
Your search keywords are ".net framework 3.5"
