I bought an 8125 off of ebay, and its puzzling me right now. First off, it does not automatically boot into the os, it sits on the screen with IPL/SPL/etc until it appears as if the entire screen is pulsating, for god knows how long. If you play with the buttons the phone will eventually boot.
But thats not all. Bluetooth absolutely refuses to start, no matter what I do, I've flashed all the way up to wm6 with 2.26 and still nothing. Also the gsm radio refuses to actually find a provider.
Any thoughts?
*Bumpity-bump-bump* Anyone? Help?

Hello, and thanks for taking the time to read this message and hopefully offering me some assistance.
Last night I loaded the new version of Egress and was playing around with the 8125 with WiFi on.
For some reason the phone started slowing down to a crawl so I did a soft reset. That's when the trouble began.
Now the phone does not boot up all the way. I get the stock Cingular screen and the Windows Mobile screen. Next it goes to the Today screen. I get the time, signal strength and start button. That's it. The rest of the screen is blue (with the exception of the Contacts and Calander buttons).
Nothing works with the phone. No buttons on the screen, or phone. If I dial my number the phone rings and I get the Caller ID information but cannot answer it.
I am using the Cingular 2.25 ROM and I am not overclocking in any way.
I've done numerous soft resets with and without the storage card in.
Any ideas what I can try next?
Anyone else seen this?
Thanks
David

wizard love my friend, wizard love.
Hello all,
I have recently killed my Jamin. Im not sure whether it is permanent or not. Personally it looks like a rom failure with the video bois, but I am far from experienced with windows mobile#.
I have searched the forum and can not find anything similar.
(Story)
To cut a long story short, I picked up my Jamin while it was connected to my pc. Catching a gimps of WM5 and the battery fell out (while still connected to my vista pc). So it turns off and I put the battery back in and turned it back on.
(What does work)
This is kind of hard to explain, but from what gather, everything seems to be running fine except the screen. Basically it still syncs up (can access files) and the Bluetooth led turns on after a minutes or how ever long it takes
(Problem)
The problem is that the screen is doing something weird (This is the hard part to explain). I do not get anything out of it even the "htc" pic at the start.
It has these blue horizontal lines about a pixel wide running down the screen. They change like the screen is trying to display different things but it is as if it does not know how to use the screen.
Im thinking re-install the rom? But I do not want to make things harder for myself if I am wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Tryed Flashing.
Well If anyone is interested, I tried Re flashing and I still get the same problem. My next PDA will not be an Imate, too many problems.
I've looked around a little but I can't seem to find anyone with this exact problem. The phone was working just fine until a day or two ago then it seemed very laggy and sluggish. This morning it just up and quit.
I've got a cingular 8125
IPL/SPL 2.25.0001
GMS 02.25.11
OS 2.25.11.1
SPB mobile shell is installed
It will load the Cingular screen, display the information above then change to the blue windows Mobile screen, for a short time (about 45 seconds) it will respond to button, screen taps, ect. After that time is up the back light will not come on but the screen never goes off. I am still able to see the windows screen if I have another light source. The Green and Bluetooth light both flash at the top of the phone as if it was standing by. I would like to be able to fix this issue without deleting or losing the information off the phone.
If there is any other information I can give to get this fixed just let me know.
Thank you all for any help. I appreciate it a lot.
I had a strange issue recently with my build (below). I had a 'normal' data freeze and rebooted, but when I did, apparently a message was waiting and some appointment on my calendar was due. This seemed to really slow down WM and HaRET ran very slowly before booting Android. However, after Android booted, the touchscreen was locked and wouldn't slide out of the way. In fact, the screen darkened and shut off just as if I wasn't touching the screen at all. I did receive a phone call, which worked, but touchscreen was still unresponsive.
So I tried rebooting again. This seemed to lock up JMZ Dual Boot and not allow me to boot up Android. Moreover, it locked my touchscreen in WM! I have pocketshield installed, and after cover screen showed up, I couldn't move it away. I tried rebooting, taking the battery out for 5 minutes, etc. and no luck.
Ultimately, I resolved this by a HARD RESET of the phone. Lost my windows setup which will take some time to repair, but since I use Android most of the time, maybe it doesn't matter?
Anyway, posted this in case others are having this problem, maybe there's a theme.
editted: ok, touchscreen stopped responding again, in WM and Android, while the unit was just sitting on my desk. I'm now thinking hardware problem...
yes i have the same problem since a ~week. NO TOUCHSCREEN... i have flashed maybe 100 different roms, but no luck... even when i install the original vodafone rom with radio and downgrade to spl 1.48 it doesnt work... this must be an android issue i think.
yesterday i was in the vodafone shop and they give me an NEW HD2 ))))).
now im waiting for an solution about that problem and hope someone will fix it. untill that i will stay on WM6.x. i dont think, i will get another new HD2^^
sorry about my bad english! im german...
ps: when i started the hd2 there was an picture of an WORLD MAP for ~one second. maybe this helps. i think there is something in the front of the orange screen. something with "yes" or "no" option. but i cant see it.
