I cooked a wm2003 rom in the kitchen, downloaded it and it worked ok but I didnt like it very much, then used my sd card with the original O2 rom and boot to reflash, all fine, installed Tomtom, which ran fine. I then decided to cook a xda developers rom with all the bits, once flashed I installed tomtom, "com port doesnt exist" error, I had already unchecked the box in settings/beam so it isnt that, I have reflashed twice, same problem. No other programs are installed or running besides those that are in the cooked rom. I have now gone back to O2 rom as I need my gps software. Any ideas?
I have now reflashed with an earlier cooked kitchen rom and it works fine, weird.
:roll:
which rom did you flash to get it to work? i have the same problem with my xda using rom 3.17.03 ENG and radio 4.21.00.
cheers.

I found out later that it was probably the "folding keyboard" driver that did it, if you are using tomtom navi make sure that under settings/connections/beams that the box under beams is not checked or it will never work. By the way I reflashed to Special Edition rom 1.2.

That was going to be my second guess, after the Irda port. The keyboard driver ties up the port, since it's typically in the startup folder.

Hello!
What can I do, if I don't have any cable? (no usb or serial cable)
ROM 3.14.16 GER
Radio 4.21
Is there any chance to unlock?
THX for help!

Without serial or usb cable? Do you have a card reader? How do you synchronise your xda or load programs.? Anyway what you need is the xdaunlock.exe program, you need to get it into your xda via sd card or beam it using infrared beam from another device, then use file explorer to locate file, tap on xdaunlock.exe then it should unlock.
I just noticed you have radio version 4.21, there are issues with that radio stack and xdaunlock so it maybe best for you to look at the different forum headings and learn a little about this.
HI,
tomorow I will get a USB cable, so I can update the ROM to version 3.19.01 from o2 GER. I would like to use xdaunlock.exe .
Could someone tell me, if it then works?????
ROM 3.19.01 GER
Radio 4.21

As long as you tick the xdaunlock box when building the rom it should work fine after you have cooked and burned your rom. If you use the special edition developers rom it unlocks automatically on first boot after the new rom is burned, however I had to look for the xdaunlock program on my xda when using the kitchen rom, once found I just tapped the xdaunlock.exe and it worked fine. I would advise you strongly to back up your existing rom via the sd card method or using the tools available on the forum before burning a new rom, better safe than sorry.
Your other option is to download the xdaunlock program from here http://xda-developers.com/XDAunlock/ then copy it to your xda, use file explorer to locate where you put it and then tap and execute it from there.
Hi,
It doesn't work. My configuration now ROM 3.19.01 GER and Radio 4.21. There ist no wireless modem application in that version, that' why xdaunlock.exe doesn't work. Is it possible to install Wireless modem as applikation?
If I use "special rom" to unlock, is ot possible to turn back to original o2 rom?
THX for help!

Have you already been successful ? I have the same configuration and would like to know how it works.
I did a cooked rom in one of the kitchens using a T-mobile ROM. I don't like the look or feel, don't have a linux machine so cannot use the special edition ROM.
My problem is my backup is corrupt and now I have created a new ROM in the yorch.net kitchen and downloaded Siemens ROM from their site and when I go to install it it says my SX 56 is not connected even though I look at active sync and everything works fine.
What can I do? :?:
You need to slow down and be more descriptive. Yorch does not have ATT's ROM on his site. How did you upgrade? Did you use an .exe or the OSToolset or the SD Card method? Take it one step at a time. How did your backup get corrupted?
I used the T-mobile or yorch's site to cook a new rom, I have been trying to unlock the phone and thought maybe that would give me something that the unlocker would work with.
I upgraded with an .exe
I backed up to an SD Card and when I shutdown my laptop while on the road some security program andjusted the file son the card so now I cannot restore.
I have tried using another ROM from the kitchen and the one from Siemens website upgrade and both times when I try to install I'm told there is no connection to my laptop. But I can see active sync working and saying it's connected.
Just get the 3.02 ROM from the kitchen, use the OSToolset to put it on an SD Card, and install it using the SD Card method. You won't need to have an active connection to your computer then.
Where do I find a kitchen with that rom for the ATT SX56?
I cannot access Jeff's & Yorch's site only has the newer T-Mobile and the PPC2003.
You will not find the Original SX56 ROM by itself. If you want to go back, download the old O2 3.02 ROM, install it, and then run the newest ROM upgrade from ATT.
I can use the O2 rom on a 900/1900 system? excuse me for my ignorance, but I don't want to fry my machine as this is my third one and I really want this one to work, long story.
As long as you don't update the radio stack of your device you are pretty much free to try any ROM you want. However, the intention is NOT to use the O2 ROM for anything other than having an old ROM on your device that the SX56 ROM you download from ATT will recognize as updatable. Hence, you will be able to put back the SX56 2002 ROM. As always, anything you do is at your own risk.
Thanks, I got it working and sombody gave me an image of the XDA developer rom for my unit and now it is unlocked and works great.
After I read http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade4
It says The WM6 does not work on PH20A2 (Harrier) (Audiovox PPC-6600 / PPC-6601 / XV6600)/ CDMA device! <-- that is my mistake
My mistake steps:
1. upgrade 2003 2nd edition to WM6 (I see 4 color strip with "NO GSM" at the bottom, stuck in there. The PPC will stop if I remove the battery for a few seconds and put battery back)
2. use mytt <-- may not hurt (I see 4 color strip with "NO GSM" at the bottom, stuck in there. The PPC will stop if I remove the battery for a few seconds and put battery back)
3. Do hard reset, format the PPC (stuck in white screen, then do soft reset. The PPC will ""NOT"" stop if I remove the battery for a few seconds and put battery back)
reflash
Have you tried re-flashing with the original ROM?

What do you mean reflash?
Does it mean that Reinstall the WM6, or install other OS like WM5?
However,Without activesync how can I do that?
OR reflash mean formart?

I tried to upgrade my win2003 2nd edition in ppc 6600 to WM6, but it seems that WM6 won't work with ppc 6600. Then,
1. I download the WM5 rom from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Helmi
2. Try to reflash the PPC
3. I see that the PPC response
4. Try to do the reset after finished upload rom
5. Four color strip screen & "NO gps" and "5.02... WWE"
6. Try to restart again, and wait, result is the same
7. Try to go to bootloader mode, use mtty, do "set 14 0", "task 28", "task 0", PPC still keep the same. I have tried all reset, hard reset, etc
8. *** Try to reflash the PPC again, I find out that there is no current ROM when the ROM upload program try to read my current PPC condition.
Btw, I post the question to the FAQ too

You did very stupid thing, you have flashed GSM based rom to a CDMA device, the only thing you can do is to use WM2003SE, flash your device with its original or any CDMA (Harrier) based WM2003SE rom
Quick Howto:
Put your device in bootloader mode, put it on the cradle, start the upgrade including radio (the same version can be flashed on top of the previous one), this will fix your device, if it does not then after successful WM2003SE upgrade do the MTTY "set 14 0", "task 28", "task 0".
Keep me posted if you have problem
P.S.
WM5 and WM6 does not work on Harrier (CDMA Blueangel) device, i hope my instructions to help you to have at least usable device

Please understand what xplode wrote to you, you can not use the GSM ROM on your device, so dont try to check bluetooth etc, go back and reflash your device with the original ROM following what explode said above. Dont you want to save your device?

So far, I can use the phone without any problem. Previously, I tried to upgrade my phone because I want to use bluetooth headset to listen music. That can only be done in WM5 or later. Now I reinstall my CDMA version of WM2003. I find out that the bluetooth does not work due to expire of lincese key. Does anyone have any suggestion how I can over come it? I just want my phone back to exact a few day ago. Thanks
thanks
lincese
Someone has posted the attached file and said that it can fix BT license expired error. I have not tried it myself since I dont face such prob, so use it on your own risk.
To use it - extract archive to your PocketPC and run EXE file.

Thanks, but does not work on my PPC6600
Hey folks,
I can't get my unit so show up in my PC....i have installed activesync. The unit charges but thats about it.
Can anyone help me out here?..I would really appreciate any ideas...
thanks
it would be help for others to help you if you state what rom you have loaded original or cooked. If you have installed hardspl and then downloaded a cooked rom from here or somewhere else then you might have advanced networking selected in the rom to switch it off and allow active sync to recognise it simply click start > settings > connections > usb to pc and untick it.
If its an original rom then you will have to state what it is that you have installed also state what software you have loaded on to it ,as some software to play silly buggers with active sync
Hello!
i've got the same Problem as the Threadstarter...
Ive loaded the following ROM:

http://www.4shared.com/file/90040149/a7472809/GoldenGlobe_Black_GER_V10.html
(german version ;D)
now, i flashed successfully, (i believe without hardspl, as i wanted to flash hardspl it caused an error while flashing, so i tried without it.. (chosen Secure SPL in the flash-tool) )
After flash, the phone rebooted, and it didn't connect anymore -.-
the advanced networking also is switched off...
maybe i have to flash another one with the sd-card method...
xover§, talk about russian roulette...
Go to page 116, post 1160 of the Hard SPL thread in upgrading section. Instructions on how to install Hard SPL using the sd card method.
If you try to flash the Hermes without Hard SPL using the sd card method, be prepared for failure.....
Cheers...
As for active sync, have you upgraded your PC's .net framework to 3.5?
got vista.. no need for .net framework anymore xD, it's included... (and yes, the newest version..)
holy F**k...
this post (page 116, post 1160) is exact what i need xD thanks ...

Hi, to everybody:
I have got a HTC P3300 device (Artemis) purchased in Spain in 2006, unlocked, so I've got no problems on that.
It's was updated by me to WM6 Professional (OS CE 5.2.1620, Build 18125.0.4.2) using official ROM for free devices.
ROM Ver.
ROM Ver: 3.13.412.1 ESN
Date: 8/28/2007
Radio ver: 02.94.90
Protocol ver: 4.1.13.44
ExtROM ver: 3.13.412.102
Now I would like to upgrade it to a cooked ROM like Shady's new ones with WM6.5 or another one with TouchFlo but I can't, altough I've tried almost everything. I'm not a newbie and I work like developer so I understand the most I read but now I'm completely lost; let me explain to you.
My laptop has Windows 7 Ultimate (32bit) installed and I know that this OS(and Vista) have problems so I also tried on XP Professional SP2 without success.
I tried to upgrade the device using the exe directly and trough USPL (from this site and others) but nothing works. I always get the same 2 errors; normally when I use USPL I have error 260 (connection) because the device doesn't go to bootloader screen and if I restart the device into bootloader manually, if the update process starts (not always), it reaches less than 5 or 10% returning a 270 error with message "File corrupt".
I read a lots of in this forum and similar ones checking steps one by one, even trying to update/install USB drivers for Vista but nothing works. When I use USPL, screen goes to black and "unkonwn device" plugged in to USB port is detected on the system so I think the problem is the program can't put the device in correct state, but if I activate bootloader by my self "Sync Device" appears in devices manager but I cannot go futher as I said before.
Do I must make a downgraded to original WM5 and start from it (maybe a problem with loader version)or there's anything that I forgot?. If someone knows a link or think that I missed some step, please help me.
Any kind of help would be appreciated so much. Thank you in advanced
Solved!
OK, here I am!.
Finnally I solved the problem. The issue was that I had have to "do a hard reset before" try to update the ROM. I read somewhere that an application locked the device avoiding the ROM upgrade. I just went to settings > system > emtpty memory and since then I was able to upgrade like the posts said .
Best regards

unlock your phone with USPL and then follow the installation instructions of the roms posted
shady313 and babbelut roms are the most current ones based on 6.5
neither of them have touchflo support though but babbelut rom has spb shell, a different kind of touch cube system
