Someone explain, help... - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hello,
This is my first post on this forum.
Im new to the Pocket Pc's. I got this T-Mobile MDA II from my friend 2 days ago and that was the first time in my life when I touched the PPC.
I have a big problem.
MDA II is not reading the SMS (''the phone is not ready, try again in 15min'').
And another problem is GPRS. MDA says ''connecting'' or something like that, and nothing happens.
The PPC is from Germany, and I live in Croatia. And the language is in English-Germany.. Something is on English, something on Germany.
Can someone explain what's the problem ?
And another question
I download the WM6.1 AKU1.0(build 19199).
I can't get to the Bootscreen mod, I click the middle navigation button, then power button and nothing happens.
And where is the reset button ?
Sorry for my stupid questions and bad english.
But I need some help.. Please!

Please!
I need someone to explain how to install ROM on MDA II.

the reset button is on the left of the charging block ( tiny hole )
follow these instructions
Start your device in bootloader mode by pressing and holding down:
DPad + PowerButton + ResetButton
After a second release ResetButton, then release the rest of them.
Your screen will show word "Serial" at the top.
You are in bootloader mode now.
Place your device in the cradle, ensuring that the cradle
is plugged directly into a USB port on your PC and not to a hub
and that the power supply is connected to the cradle.
It is also a good idea to disable any screensavers on your desktop PC.
Once your device is cradled, the text on the screen will change to "USB".
Run HimaUpgradeUt.exe
Sit back and wait for the Congratulations screen to be displayed
on your PC. Your device will still be displaying 'Upgrading ROM Image, please wait....',
but as long as the PC says it is done, then its all OK.
Detach your device from the cradle.
Now you have to hardreset your device.
Press ResetButton and hold down CameraButton + RecordButton.
Hold them pressed until the "Boot Options" menu appears on the screen.
Select the options as follows:
(for selecting use RecordButton, change values with CameraButton)
Enable KITL -> NO
Clean Registry Hive -> YES
Format Storage -> YES
When done, press DPad and wait until OS starts.
===========================================================================================
PS: Upgrade on your own risk

omg this is amazing...
ather90 thank you very much!
6.1.1a16CS (WM6.1 AKU 1.0) ROM is great.
I can now use my camera, use gprs, use internet..
Wonderfull

good that you finally succeeded. now try 6.1.1b16CS (WM6.1 AKU 1.0)

usb craddle or usb sync cable ?

Rom Ver : 1.72.00WWE
Rom Date 03/15/04
Radio Ver : 1.17.00
Protocol version 1337.28
ExtROM Ver : 1.72.181

This is also my 1st post here. But I'd been monitoring the xda-developer forums for a long time. I spend more time reviewing posts rather than posting in forums. Anyways I think I can help. Here's the answer to your question: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HimalayaBootloaderSdCardFlashing. You can also use the search function provided by this website to search for topics that you need.

Thanks for the link which lead me to bootloader info below
"you can connect to the bootloader, either via a serial cable, and use a terminal program like hyperterm. or via usb, and use mtty. make sure you have disabled the serial or usb connection in activesync, before trying to connect to the bootloader."
So i am guessing its both USB CABLE or USB CRADLE got i just purchase one on Amazon for 90 pence

i tried to bootload my xda and it keeps bringing me to the windows mobile screen with no serial words on top...

Unlocking Siemens SX56

Hi,
First off, I am clueless, it is going to be apparent anyway, lol
I purchased a supposedly unlocked Siemens SX56 off ebay which is fully functional except when I put in my cingular sim card it says "SIM Lock: Please input unlock code:
SId:______________________"
So....I am trying to unlock it with a usb cradle using the XDA-Developers Special Edition ROM 1.2, & I cna follow all the steps untill I start to step 2 the release notes, it then opens "Warning 001: Power Adapter Not Plugged In Please plug the power adapter into your pocket pc" I don't have the travel charger that plugs into the cradle, is this necessary?
I also tried the XDAunlock but I don't think my system is new enough for that, b/c after I move the file to my XDA using active sync I can't open it on my pocket pc, it says "cannot find xda2unlock (or one of it's components) Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available."
What am I doing wrong...please help!
Thanks,
Megan
Also..
The Device Info is as follows:
ROM version: A.20.17 ENG
ROM date:05/15/03
Radio Version: A.20.10
Protocol version: 324e4
Thanks,
Megan

Looks like you have used the wrong tool. xda2unlock is for himalaya device xdaunlock for the wallaby...
Anyway. i think this tool is not working with your currently installed ROM Version.
For flashing a new ROM to your device you need the cradle or an usb cable, that also powers your device. If you do not have this, you have to flash the device using the "SD-Card"-Method.

Thanks so much Stefan! I did get the power cord to the USB cradle and was able to download the XDA Developers Special edition ROM!
Thanks again!

S200 dead, ROM Update failed

hi
i have a QTEK S200. Today i tried to update my ppc with a WM6 version, but after 40min. the upgrade program crashed down.
After this it was impossible to enter in the main menu of the ppc. the ppc remains hanging on the QTEK screen. I've tried to enter in the bootloader with the color screen, to connect the ppc with my usb cable an the notebook, but my notebook does'nt find my ppc. And now the battery is empty (even connected with the usb cable on a working pc) and i can't switch on my ppc.
Any solutions?
Charge your Batterie and make Hard Reset. Charge VIA Caddy.
done. but the screen remains on the QTEK start page. Bootloader is possible and i get the 3-color screen but my notebook does'nt find my ppc... It's strange because yesterday everything was fine and the connection to my notebook was ok but in the 3-color screen i can't build a usb connection.
ok, problem solved. i've puted a new core on the ppc and now appears the old wm5.
how did you manage to get back to the old rom ? i am stuck on the qtek screnn and the only thing i can access is the USB flash 3 colors screen but my pc doesn't seem to the device...
any help greatly appreciate )
thx in advance
ben
do you have the problem with the SPL 3.08?
no I am in SPL 2.20... and IPL 2.09...
thanks for your help
please write the full ipl/spl number!
here it is :
IPL : 2.09
SPL : 2.20.0000
thx
finaly I manage to dowgrade it by changing my driver - the problem was coming from vista
important is to know, that the 3-color screen give the possibility to communicate with your computer (connected with usb).
so, you have the possibility to copy a new core on it. after that you put a new wm or you take the old one. in my case, the old wm5 was still on the ppc.
yesterday i was testing the wm6 in german but it was not really nice... so i work again with wm5 and wait till a complete wm6 solution is available.

Don't be panic man just follow the below steps and your device working like charm
It is actually the disconnection error
1 - first fully charged battery.
2 - install mobile device center or active sync ( as per your OS )
3 - Enter in to the bootloader mode
4 - connect USB cable with ppc device.
5 - wait for detection of the device
6 - drivers are automatically installed if you are using windows7 it shows
driver installed successfully & device is ready to use.
7 - extract the rom update utility from the posts whichever you like ( remember choose it carefully as per your device )
8 - just double click on upgrade icon in extracted folder and yeah you done.
if still any problem persists then fell free to contact me on [email protected]

Problem accessing HTC Uni bootloader...

Hi guys,
I'm probably being really daft and missing something really obvious but I've been going round in circles for about a week on this now without any success and starting to tear my hair out. Proficient enough at flashing ROMs [the joys of HD2 ] and been working in IT support and consultancy for 20 years so the PC side is OK too - have tried searching through the various threads on here along with Googling but can't seem to find anything conclusive regarding my situation and hope someone could point me in the right direction.
Orange M5000 - rebranded HTC Universal, obviously
Pressing Power + Lamp + Reset does not appear to take me into the bootloader - I don't get a screen saying 'SERIAL'
I get a screen offering the following options:
Boot Options:
Enable KITL
Clean Registry Hive
Format Storage
with the following at the bottom of the screen:
R 1.03.00
G 42.36.P8
D 1.30.90 WWE
Using the small curser keys and button below the screen I can select any of the above options and select YES or NO
Pressing the button changes to another screen with a white background and the following options:
Select KITL Transport:
USB KITL
SERIAL KITL
Ethernet KITL
Select KITL Mode:
Active
Passive
And I can get no further...
I realise that we're probably missing something really obvious and/or basic out but for the life of me I can't find the answer! Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.
Cheers,
David

Thanks for the prompt response! Had guessed that problem would be something basic we were missing
Now we've come across another!
We can get into the bootloader fine with it showing SERIAL and when we connect the cable it changes automatically to USB. But...
Trying to run MaUpgradeUt_noID always gives an Error 150 ROM Upgrade Error - tried running as Administrator - no change
Its interesting that the picture in the utility is not of a Universal - dunno if this is relevant?
If we try to use the ROMUpgradeUT that is in the ROM directly, we get an Error 101 Connection Error
Picture in this instance is of a Universal however - again, dunno how relevant this is?
We'll get there

64-bit Windows 8 Pro
Works fine for flashing my HD2 via the usual methods.
Guessing there's either something we're missing in terms of running some compatibility settings [although we've tried] or that it may be a driver issue. Drivers noted in the thread about flashing Uni from Vista won't install however...
