Hi guys,

was trying to establish a bluetooth connection with nokia 6600 and it just froze displaying the today screen

Can anybody help
Isn't There anyone who can help me...??????
Isn't There anyone who can help me...?????? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
when you mean turn on do you talk about turn on as in turn on the top power connector
or a softreset ?
if you mean top power connector then that dont reset the pda you need to do a softreset
if you did mean a softreset then i dont know any other way then a hardreset which of cause delete all your data
Inderts the stylus in the reset hole, if that doesnt work then as the man said you will need to do a hard reset and all data will be lost, hard reset is done by pressing power while inserting stylus in reset hole.
Hi
Thanks for yr reply
I have aslo tried a hard reset but no luck
The device switches on and freezes on the blue O2 screen or sometimes goes thru the setup procedure & freezes at the today screen
Tried it a couple of times
Is there any other way please let me know.
Thanx again :? :? :?
Which ROM do you use? You can try to flash your ROM. There are plenty of treads on this forum on how to do this. Make sure you don't use a USB hub when connected to flash you're ROM. Your MDA II must be connected to a normal USB connection (I learned it the hard way....)

Hi
Sorry for the late reply as i was out of town
Dunno exactly how to identify the rom version but when switched on it shows
R 1.05.14
G 1337.14
D 1.03.00 USA
Can u please suggest what to do
Thanx
You can see which ROM version you have by going to:
Settings, System tab and then Device information.
Mine says:
ROM version 1.60.00WWE
ROM date: 12/03/03
Radio version: 1.06.01
Protocol version: 1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.60.06
So I guess you can do a ROM upgrade. To find out how to do it, just do a search on this forum for ROM upgrade and you'll find detailed describcions on how to do it. Make sure that your device is not connected via a USB hub otherwise you can have some trouble getting it done.

Thanx for the prompt reply but the problem is that the device starts goes on thru the new device setup programme & hangs nuthing beyong that
So am unable to go to the system settings
Is there any other way i can see the rom version...
Well the colors at the beginning tell you which ROM you have (but are only very short on the screen so hard to read) but you can defenitely upgrade.

No Bluettoth Hardware Installed Error Msg
Hey, this sounds like the same problem I have too! I have just posted a new subject in the "Using It" section of this Forum. Does your device also suffer from the following i.e. when the software ha loaded and you hit the bluetooth icon, does this error message come up "There is No Bluetooth Hardware Installed on this Device"? Pls read my post below.
"I have an XDA II, bought from the UK. I live in E. Africa so sending it back is a hassle. EVer since I bought it, although it was OK for a few days, a msg then came up saying "There is no bluetooth hardware installed on this device". This means I cannot put b/t on or off. Also, it affects the performance of the XDA II as it crashes frequently and loses ActiveSync connections frequently. The odd thing is that SOMETIMES, after a hard reset, it's OK again. But then when I do a subsequent hard or even soft reset the same problem occurs! So it DOES work. But not consistently. I conttacted O2 by email & tel. They were semi-helpful. I returned the XDA II to the O2 repair centre in London by courier (expensive). It came back, apparently repaired, but they had addressed the wrong thing and the problem still persists! I am loathe to sending it back without trying something for it - if you have any suggestions. Perhaps I can try a Rom Update or something to see if it sorts it. Even O2 are baffled, but I do not have the privilege of sending it off again because of where I live. Any suggestions or advice please? Many thanks. "
'Frozen' O2 screen with bluetooth light flashing
Hi to all,
I 've been having similar problems since I got my unit last November. You may be able to relate with my problems.. screen won't respond to any taps.. when you send SMS, the 'Send' button freezes... tried soft resetting, sometimes lucky, gets back to normal... at worst, does a hard reset...
after a few months of no reliable answer from local and foreign XDA help.. i'm used to either removing my battery/sim.. wait for awhile.. try to find a place where there's better network signal.. then, puts back the SIM and battery.. many times a get lucky by doing this... but there are also times that I had to do hard reset.. like two hours ago..
Hopefully, some help will come ...
For those who have yet to develop a routine to address similar problem, you may try mine...
Helpless xda II fanatic(???)
Archel Angeles
I have similar experience too. I got my XDAII last November, it runs smoth without a single hang for the first month until one day in January, while using it reboot by itself, after that day the device will just reboot anytime anywhere!
Thinking that this might be caused by some installed softwae, I hard reset my device. After the initial setup then it hang while running the auto installation from the extended rom saying that some file is missing. I hard reset again and it still hang while running the auto installation but saying another file is missing. On the day alone, I hard reset my device for more than 10 times! Each time it will either hang on the O2 startup screen or during the auto installation. Until finally one time manage to pass through the initial setup and auto installation.
On the second day, I quickly bring my set to the service centre for repair, while I describe and showing the faulty set to the service officer, the device self reboot for another couple of times.
I took back my set two days later, the service officer told me they cannot find the fault of this so they re-flash the rom for me, and they have tested it with internet browsing, mms, sms etc without any problem.
The 'repaired' set works fine for another one month until couple of week ago it start to hang during some incoming calls. When call was received, I press the answer key to answer the phone, the device would just hang with the ballon still showing on the screen, i'm not able to answer the call at all.
Last Friday, I finally hard reset the device again and re-install some my software applicaton and games. Second day morning while I was waiting for my friend, I start to attach photo to my contact, just when I attached the first photo and click on the save, the device hang! I press the soft reset button and the screen goes off without rebooting. I press the reset button again but the screen just won't come back. I even took out the battery and put in my backup battery, still the screen refuse to come back! The screen only come back when I performed a hard reset.
Today i found another problem with the device, the free memory is getting lesser and lesser by itself! Just before I type this reply, I soft reset my device and leave my device on the momory status screen, the allocated momory for the program showing 63.02Mb, in used 16.96MB and the Free momory 46.06MB. Now the in use memory increases to 30.75MB while the Free memory drops to 32.27MB!! I did not run anything in the background, I did not even tough my device!!
Anybody here can help save my device?
I have the same problem now. It is really a nightmare for all of us!!!
Exactly
Have a very similar problems 4 days in the row. Self-Blackhangs without any knowing reason. Impossible to use device longer then 10 min. HELP!!!
P.S. Some days before I try to uninstall Intellisync, wich I try, but does not use for a long time. Uninstall was unsuccessful cause .exe was "in use". There problems begins. May be. After one of hard-resets I remove .exe manually and then uninstall prog, but problems persists.
Hi guys, Fortunatly I do not have the same problems with my XDA II but I was thinking maby it is a type of software that has been installed on the device, I have noticed that some apps can cuase VERY strange things to happen (Even some THEMES!!!).... LOOK out for this..
Maybe you could try and run the XDA II after doing a hard reset as bare as possible... As in not installing any other themes or thirdparty software for a day or two and see if the device still gives your any problems... Will be interesting to find out.. I have had resets on my XDA II from using some themes avalible from the O2 website (that users have made not O2, but still) and since using the default theme I have not had a crash or a reboot since... (THIS TOOK ME FORVER to find out)... but might be worth a try..
Keep us all informed how you go with things.. Hopfully its just a pice of software or somthing simple like that...
GOOD LUCK ALL!!!
So, guys, I think that there is a HW problem. MDA freezing during initial install or during HardReset before install. Maybe "motherboard" is microbroken or so on.
Week ago I return my MDAII to T-Mobile and they will repair it to some way. I will report this way to you all as soon as possible. Let we see.

Hi all,
I have the following devis info of mine:
ROM version 1.66.00WWE
ROM date: 02/20/04
Radio version: 1.10.00
Protocol version: 1337.18
ExtROM version: 1.66.101
This Rom works great, just search for it and upgrade!!
Wish you all luck!!!
sounds a lot like the problem I'm having.
Can any of you guys install a new rom at all? mine freezes up and activesync disconnects the second it does... So I guess when flashing your rom and having it freeze up on you, you'd be even further from a solution... thoughts pls
I fixed it guys...
seems a corrupted rom was the problem hitting bootloader mode (power + action + stylus) and installing a new rom fixed my problems
let me know how it works out for you guys
Hello Everyone!
My first post here... hopefully someone can help me out here before I start "taking chances" and flashing my new MWg Atom Life. (I've never had good luck flashing ROMs, so it's a bad thing for me... lol)
Anyways, I have a BlackBerry Pearl 8100 (the original one) and my Atom Life (pre-loaded with WM6) just arrived today. So I went over to the T-Mobile store and had them replace my BlackBerry Connect Data plan with their "T-Mobile Total Internet Add-on".
Now, keep in mind that I have done alot of custom .NET CF development on WM and have used it alot as part of the testing process for those applications, but for the life of me, I can't seem to figure out how to connect to T-Mobile's EDGE network. I've configured the ISP/Modem settings correctly (and tried both "internet2.voicestream.com" and "internet3.voicestream.com") BUT everytime I try to turn on the "Data" session, it says that it "Cannot connect for an unknown reason".
I can make and receive phone calls just fine and the GSM network is automatically detected as "T-Mobile". Any suggestions to get the data plan working?
Thanks in advance!
Here's what worked for me (Atom Life/Windows Mobile 6 and T-Mobile USA), just follow the steps below in "paint by numbers" fashion:
Go to Settings -> Connections Tab -> Connections icon, then...
Under GPRS Settings, "Add a new modem connection"
Next page: Enter a name (I used "T-Mobile Data") and select "Cellular Line (GPRS)" - Note that choosing simply "Cellular Line" will not work, must be GPRS.
Next page: Access Point Name: wap.voicestream.com
Leave the next page blank and the Advanced settings at their default, and just click "Finish"
Let me know if that works for you.
And while you're at it - once you get Edge going, let me know how you handle voicemail notifications. I don't get a VM "flag" from T-Mobile, and my work-around - YouMail - doesn't seem to be able to send text messages to my device (interesting, since I get all other text messages). That's my biggest (my ONLY) problem with the Atom Life and T-Mobile - having to guess if I have a voicemail message.
Lee
Those are the exact same steps I followed, but I put in 'internet2.voicestream.com' AND 'internet3.voicestream.com' instead of 'wap.voicestream.com', since according to this Wiki, I have to use the other ones: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/T-Mobile_Data
I went ahead and tried your suggestion anyways and it is now working, although I don't know if there are any port/connection limitations when the 'wap' access point is used.
At this point, everything has become more and more frustrating. The firmware is very buggy and the slightest program crash takes everything down requiring a power-cycle. Then the my date/time settings get lost everytime I do that (while everything else remains there).
Do I have a bad ROM? Should I re-flash it? If yes... from where would I get the official firmware again? Remember, this is an MWg branded Atom Life that was purchased in the USA from Expansys, so I don't know which firmware/ROM I should get for this.
Interesting. I bought the black MWg Atom Life and had issues with the ROM, too. Extensys told me to go to the MWg site and download the latest ROM, but none of the ROM downloads would install (ROMs were IMEI-specific, and my IMEI was not listed). So I upgraded to the XDA (White) Atom Life, branded with the original O2 rather than MWg, and I like the ROM version a lot more (has all the original O2 software).
It sounds like your ken with these devices is likely keener than my own, but the first time I loaded my device it too was prone to crashes. It had this annoying habit of refreshing the screen at random intervals - not as in refresh rates but as in the screen going blank for a second and then redawing itself. I resolved the issue by doing a hard reset and re-installing my software, soft-resetting after each install. It then ran smoothly for a few days, but when I realized I was missing a lot of good software, I decided to switch to the Limited (white) XDA version. Right from the get-go, the O2 seems much more stable than the MWg; hardware is identical save for the color, so it's the firmware.
I should add that Extensys has so far been really good to deal with - very helpful and they seem interested in keeping me a happy customer. Rare, yet so refreshing. Don't be afraid to call them about this.
atom life on t-mobile usa
i am using the atom life (mwg version, running 6.0) on t-mobile. if anyone comes up with a fix for the email notification icon, let me know.
also, anyone knows whether voice commander will announce incoming calls on this phone (right now, it does not!) let me know!
thanks.
ps. i f i can answer anybody's questions, just let me knw
mark
So there is one problem I am having with T-mobile and my Atom Life is that since I got it I get the VM flag on my phone but I DO NOT HAVE ANY VM's! I searched for this all over the net but seems like I'm the only one who has that problem and everyone has the opposite problem of no VM flag at all and they have to guess for voicemail. If anyone knows anything that can be done please tell me.
Thanks

do you have a registry editor i need a copy of your registry because you have the value set for in you phone some how thier is not registry info in my phone at all for the hkcu vm
Hello all.
I have a little, but very annoying problem on my HD2. Im on 3.14, 3.03, WWE flashed with SSPL (previously was blocked on a ****ty NLD (dutch) version rom)
All is working fine, ive installed many apps, and games.
However, it seems when i exit some games (tower defence is very buggy, or gameloft Ferrari game), i go back to the home screen and i notice the clock has changed time. But im not sure its the games that do that, i just dont know what makes it change.
Say its 9.15, it will be 11.15. If its 7.20, it will show 9.20.
It seems it always adds 2 hours on my time. How come? Data connection is always turned off (i dont wanna use it) and its not connected to internet, so it cannot check internet time. But why is it doing this suddenly? wasnt doing this a few days ago, and i havnt really installed new stuff in those pas few days.
Thanks in advance for all explanations
Afgter having looked into the problem, it appears it is because of GMT zones and IGO8 nav programme.. any one else had a similar problem with the software?
I think it syncs gps time (greenwich) and this is what creates the problem, or at least the software is inteferring with the phone... damn..
Nobody else has this problem? I thought it was from IGO8 programme, but now when i exit some games, it also changes the time by 1 hour. Why is this? The minutes are always correct, its just the hour that jumps 1 or 2 hours..
This is really frustrating.. Anyone has some help suggestions? (apart from buying a proper watch? )
Thx!
Assuming that you have the correct time zone, then the problem is that the phone is getting its timing from the phone network.
Settings -> Menu -> All Settings -> Personal -> Phone -> GSM\UMTS Services -> Time Synchronization -> Get Settings. Untick 'Automatic change time zone and clock'.
Thanks buddy for the clear answer. I didnt even know those setting were available via the "MENU" in the seetings
But i set all time zones correctly, why was it changing the thing? Im GMT+1, and everywhere in my phone it was put in as GMT+1, so why would it add another hour? Anyways, time will tell
Get a +thanks! Will report back to see if time doesnt get distorted again
This is a general problem in HD2 phones all over Europe and all over different ROMs
There are already a lot of threads about it (search "winter time change") and the only solution offered by HTC until now is to switch off time sync completely (in personal -phone settings and settings HTC time sync)
HTC already promised a solution to several members of XDA as posted 3-4 weeks ago but still has no solution to it.

Got a similar problem to yours, have you been able to solve it? My WIFI was working perfectly fine at work today. Starting last night it took a while for it to connect at home and tonight it is not working at all. It sees the netwrok, its obtaining the address, authenticating and the rest of it....and thats it. Once or twice it said that the network is too weak, which is just impossible. Before today never had a problem with WIFI at home. WIFI works perfectly fine on the rest of my devices at home. Please help, if anybody was able to solve the problem!

Anyone can help with this problem?
my HTC Butterfly which i bought last year was working fine until last night. Now the WiFi signal strength is having difficulties to reach full bar, i mean full signal...most of the time it receives poor signal. The problem become worst if i try to use whatsapp or skype. The connections suddenlly disappeared. A few minutes back it connected again.
I read from this website. they have suggested a few things - like resetting my wifi router (which i think it is not the problem. the router working fine, as my friend is using my wifi using his iphone), then i try to restart...i have restarted - my phone, my wifi router...but still, the signal was very disappointing.
Then, at last, i decided to reset the phone..which at first, i really try to avoid as a lot files i need to back-up, the problem is, i could not back-up to my dropbox account as this one require good connection as well. So i jumped straight resetting my butterfly, my beloved htc butterfly.
Then, i noticed, it has improved a lil bit...(i mean the WiFi signal/connectivity), but still, if i try to download big size of applications or using skype, the connectivity disappeared. Anyway better than the previous (before resetting).
Now the signal still did not reach full bar (like it used to before).
What can i do next? should i reset again?which i dont think might resolve the issues.
What happen actually? I dont recall that my phone did fall down or anything. I dont browse any porn (they used to say, porn site contains a lot of bug/virus/malware etc, they sayy..)
FYI, this is the detail of my phone, i just list down everything perhaps somebody out there can help me.

It sounds like you bought someone else's problems. The files you need to fix your issues are not available in this forum. Nothing here is for the variant of the DNA that you have.
This may change in the future
Ok so first off I have a factory HTC one m7 with Verizon that's running the new kit Kat is. I haven't done anything to it because I don't know how. however I'm on my 7th soon to be 8th one from Verizon in less then 3 months.I've went rounds with Verizon & HTC & know one has a clue.
the list of symptoms are as follows:
1.hangs up & turns on airplane mode in the middle of calls.
2.Gets super hot sending a text or being on fb.
3.opens apps & closes them by itself.
4.calls other numbers then the number dialed.
5.turns on developer options.
6.changes date & time settings.
7.still does all this in safe mode.
8.& factory reset doesn't change a thing other then erase all my stuff.
9.I've changed the SIM & the phone & the Gmail @ the same time doesn't stop it.
10. & my battery not only jumps around but loses battery when it's turned off.
11.all my songs & pics just disappear all the time.along with pics showing up that I've never seen.
So if anyone has any ideas they would be insanely appreciated cuz now my tablets doing the same stuff.
I'm thinking either a gms hack or the newly discovered oma dm hack or a man in the middle hack.after 7 phones I'm doing my own research.
but plz any experts on here or with this phone plz help.& if this is in the wrong place can someone plz put it where it needs to be. thank u in advance.

Hey Bud,
Personally, I think you should try install a custom rom if you have a recovery installed? If you don't have a recovery installed, do it then install a custom rom like Cyanogenmod. See if that fixes your issue.
