Hello everyone,
the last days i am trying to flash my Blue Angel up to WM6 (WM5 would be OK too).
I tried about 1001 times to get into the boot options, but everything i could see was this /%&§ colored screen.
However, i managed to get it an installed WM6 sucessfully.
But now my Problem:
After softreset WM6 was gone and everything i could see, was this %&$§" colored screen again!
Back to 2003SE works fine.
I tried it many times again, stuck at the colored screen, after 1001 tries i managed it again to get into the boot options, and the same again, softreset ad wm6 was gone.
Anyone out there who can give me a hint, what to do?
I was wondered to see only the R 1.10.00 on the colored Screen.
Whats with P an G? Do i need it for WM6? Where to get it? Need i special versions for WM6?
Thanks for help guys!
I think you were doing just right, read WiKI steps more carefully for setting No Yes Yes and then pressing message button.
I was really... really really shure, that i did it right.
But you made me so confuse, that i read the Wiki again and again.
Testet it, and ist the same problem...
Just this morning, my XDA fell down, the battery disconected and all of my data were lost.
Might it be a problem with the internal battery?
Or is it normal, that every data wil be lost, if the battery is removed?
1. You did not made proper hard reset in WM5/6, that's why it could not boot. No suprise here.
2. Yes, read the manual - lack of power = HardReset in PPC2003. If your backup battery is dead (nothing special in such an old device) even a while without battery kills the memory. New BA holds the data just for few minutes.
After the flash process finished with 100%, i resetted with softreset and holding the power button. Isn't that the hard reset?
The windows software says, that the internal battery is 100% loaded but it made me a little confuse, that all the data was lost.
I really read the wiki
Could you send us the link to "wiki" that you were reading?
man, you really have plenty of time doing as much as 2k+ resets.
anyways... you need to hard reset your BA.
use the record+camera combination for hard reset.
like i posted in this link
hope that works
From the WIKI:
When the upgrade is completed, you must perform a Hard Reset
Press and hold the "Power" button, and then press the Reset Button. Colored stripes (the bootscreen) will appear on the screen.
If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, EITHER:
Quickly press "Record" & "Camera" before the versions appear at bottom right
OR press "Power" & "Camera" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66:
Quickly press "Record" & "Windows Media" before the versions appear at bottom right EITHER
OR press "Power" & "Windows Media" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
You'll see three options on screen. You must change the second and the third to yes.
If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, use "Camera" and the "Record" buttons.
If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66, use "Windows Media" and the "Record" buttons.
Note: The "Record" button moves up and down the menu and the "Camera" button toggles Yes/No. When you're done, press the button in the middle of the D-Pad to continue booting or press the "Mail" button. A white screen will show for 30 seconds, while it is clearing your device in preparation for the new ROM to start executing
When the bootscreen, aka. the colored stripes is displayed, wait more, you are booting. The welcome screen to set up your device will appear shortly ...

Hi everybody,
I just can't seem to reset my K-Jam. I tried it a dozen times but it still is a soft reset. Ok before everybody get's angry: I know how to hard reset (hold the two side top buttons and press the reset button). I tried it in different timings like first holding down the two side top buttons then pressing the resetbutton and holding it for almost a minute. Or first pressing and holding the reset button and then the two buttons but it is always a soft reset.
I guess it is a soft reset because I don't get the calibrate screen thing.
Any tips here because I want to get rid of the slowdowns from the virusprogram....?

Hi,
I had the same problem. Theres a facility in settings called 'Clear Storage'
start>settings>system>'Clear Storage'
this actually does a hard re-set.
Thanks Webster,
I didn't think of that one! That did the trick!
Wouter
Hold down the Comm Button and Voice Button continuously while tapping the reset hole.
As long as you keep holding down the two buttons, the screen will go black and soon prompt you to hit Send to hard-reset (wipe the unit), or any other key to continue with a soft-reset (reboot).
Thanks Beyondthetech,
I'll try that next time when I need it :wink: .
Great blog you have! Has been very useful in making up my mind.
I'll install TT 5 later now I know how it can be done. :lol:
Wouter
Just a small update
Just to let you guys now. I finally found out the proper way to hardreset.
The trick is not to let go of the Communications and Voice Command button until you have stopped pressing the soft reset hole. Just wait with releasing the two buttons until there is a message on the screen asking you to press the Sent key to hard reset.
Another funny thing is that you can restore a backup (made with Sunny Backup) on another K-Jam device. It still runs. This came in handy because I exchanged mine for another because of some hardware problems.
Wouter
Which one is the "Sent key".
the telephone "call" key (green handset) (left side)

this is a known bug on 9100, I also had to HARD RESET. there was already such topic, find it, there is a solution there too. HARD reset by holdin the buttons on both upper sides (comm manager and voice command) - it will vibrate, then press and hold RESET button for 5 sec
I´m sorry, but when i press the 2 buttons it doesn´t vibrate, else i push the reset during 5 seconds but it is the same.
Sorry for my poor english...

hmm, why don't you see in the printed manual, page 80. It reads:
To perform a hard reset
1. Press and hold the Comm Manager button and Voice Command
button on the device.
2. Keep the two buttons pressed, and at the same time, use the
stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button.
worked for me?
Thx for the help.
I have read the manual, and i´m doing exactly it says.
The solution for me was:
1. Press and hold the Comm Manager button and Voice Command
button on the device.
2. Keep the two buttons pressed, and at the same time, use the
stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button,
and the release the stylus and 2 seconds later release the 2 buttons.
Now i uninstalled the fu**ing Pocket plus.
ur not alone, it got me too.
Mine however would not hard reset, had to use the bootloader to re-flash the rom! The air was getting pretty blue......
Guys - you all just need to chill for a moment...
PocketPlus3 works beautifully with the wizard in all but one area - the Safe Mode.
For some reason the switch to WM5 buggers this up so what you need to do is this:
1) Install Pocket Plus 3 to your device.
2) Start > Settings > 'System' Tab > Spb Pocket Plus.
3) Scroll down the little list and uncheck the 'Safe Mode' box.
4) Soft-reset and be happy
Hope this helps!

Yes I also confirm that I have it running after the mentioned above problems . I think it is worth having, just uncheck the SAFE MODE box immediately after installing SPB and before any resets...
Oh oh, I am really in problems now. I think I have the same problem with Pocket Plus, and my MDA Vario does not start up any more. I only see the bootscreen. After doing a hard reset I see horizontal coloured bars and that's it???!!!!
HELP
How do I get out of this missery?
I use SPB PP + 3.0.4 with safe mode switched on without any problem. During boot is shows dialog what to do if you want safe mode (but i've never used safe mode yet) and device starts well.
Hi,
Please give me a hand...
I can read text messages' headline only, but I can't read the contents.
Whenever I touch any headline, which shows blank.
Actually it's empty (white screen without format).
And IE was happening as the same case also.
Sigh...
I recently installed a trial version software as a cleaner for release more memories.
I deleted some files and let main memory of 13% free,
but I'm feeling so bewilder that I have making a quite mistake.
I couldn't read webpages on ie and couldn't read any text messages on mailbox,
after I deleted "some lnk files", "the whole directory of GPRS MONITOR
in My Device\Program Files\" on my O2 Atom.
Could any one help me to solve my problem, please? :?
You have to try to reset your device.
Have you tried the soft-reset of your device ?
If that does not work you will have to do a HARD reset.
For soft reset, press the small recessed button at the bottom of the Atom.
For HARD reset (you will lose all your data, but at least you will get back a working Atom), with the Atom OFF, press the small recessed button at the bottom of the Atom AT THE SAME TIME press the power button at the top.
You will be prompted for hard reset press BOTH the CALL and HANGUP buttons.
Last option : Reflash yor ROM.

:wink: Thanks for your kind reply.
I've already tried soft reset it for many times before I post this message. :?
:roll: I made the hard reset at last....
You're right, at least I can recover my Atom.
Hello all. I'm new to this...
I just bought a K-jam on ebay, charged it, turned it on and... nothing.
I am stuck on the boot screen that shows IMATE with the various versions:
ipl 1.01
spl 1.06
gsm 01.01.10
os 1.1.9.3
The device hangs there and I can't do anything: can't power off, etc... The only thing i can do is soft reset but that doesn't help...
Anyone has an idea? Sure enough the seller does not respond to my emails anymore...
Did you try doing a hard reset? press the com manager button (Top left on the side) and the voice command button (top right on the side) while having them pressed do a soft reset. Keep the two buttons pressed and the device should say something to the effect of "press send to restore to factory settings", hope that will fix your problem.
Might sound stupid, but my device freezes at boot-up somtimes as well.. ..However, when I tap the screen during bootup it doesn't! :wink:
In my case I think it's due to the amount of programs on my device
HEEEEYYYY come to think of it my device did that before I upgraded to xelecin's custom rom LOL I remember I had to stay looking at it to tap the screen as soon as it would turn off. Since it stopped doing it, I never really looked into why it was doing it.
hi guys!
long time with no post from me but today the stupid thing (HD) did it again
i installed an app for home page tweaking and after the soft reset my HD dosen't starts right
it boots, does what it does but it sucks on the black screen with some icons on the top bar and the names of the soft keys on the bottom bar. i can only turn ona anf off the screen by pressing the power button, but nothing else. screen doesn't react, soft keys don't react either
i don't realy want to hard reset it because it took few months to make it working right, but i would do also this if there is no other solution
BUT...
when i try to hard reset it it stucked again in the tricolour mode with "SERIAL" word on the botom
what is this? i can't write anything so what is this serial all about?
so, please let me know if there is any solution for:
1. step by step booting in order to skip the process or application that cause the stuck?
2. how can i hard reset the thinggie?
thanks a lot!
Had the same problem after I installed HTC home and HTC customizer...after a soft reset, TF3D failed to load and the phone froze. Had to hard reset in the end--thankfully, I run a backup once a week, so I really didn't lose anything. I was able to run 'Clear Storage' before TF3D's startup fail managed to freeze my phone. So it's all good on my end...
Backup backup backup...a little too late...
Maybe you are not doing the hard reset correctly, you press and hold both Vol up & Vol down keys, whilst holding down power button aswell until it turns on. Hard reset screen should come up.

Sounds like a software issue Hard Reset sounds best
What you are seeing (Tri Coloured Screen) is the boot loader it probably showed up because you didnt hold the volume up key when doing Hard Reset
its not a problem just remove battery
then do hard reset (make sure both volume buttons UP/Down are press at the same time and press power button ..........follow what the screen says
thank you guys for your opinions
i know how to do a hard reset (cause is not the first one) and i tryed severl times before i post my request here
finaly i manage to do an "upgrade" using USB connection from my rom version to the same rom version. strange but this is what i did, and then i was able to do the hard reset in the usual manner
