you should use pim backup
no mannnn !!! i mean AUTOSAVE , comes from OS !
you know what i mean ?!
look when a messages comes to your pda , it goes to inbox ! if you reset your phone , after rebooting that message is gone !
Bcuz your phone did not REMEMBER that message !
anybody ?!

Are you doing hard reset..or soft reset... cause unless you're doing hard reset I don't understand why your message would be gone.... I don't know why you'd want to do hard reset that often.
But, I use PIM Backup... I'll attach it below... it's not even an installation.
It's just executable that you execute..
Great thing about this is, you can schedule it to run everyday.. so, at worst you only loss a day worth of data.
Also, it backs up bunch of other stuff besides messages... like contacts, call history, and emails.. stuff.
I hope this helps.
I think this thread (and the other thread by manuelcalavera) should be moved to the generic "Wizard" section..This subforum is for WM6 ROMs discussion only..

oh , bcuz i dont have these problems on my wm5 !
this is the reason that i post them hear !
and about PPC backup , its not about hard reset , its about soft reset !
as you know , when a message comes , phone keeps it in inbox but it will save it after minutes !
i want to save them faster
I don't understand this at all. If I get an SMS and IMMEDIATELY do a soft reset, the SMS is still in my inbox when the phone reboots. I just tried this and it works. There is no "data loss" as you claim. The only way you lose messages that come in is if you hard reset (and then you lose everything).
So I don't understand why you think you lose messages. And as you said, its just like it was on WM5.
Again, I just tested this. I had my daughter send me an SMS. As soon as I got notified (and without going to read it) I did a soft reset on my phone. When my phone rebooted, her message was still sitting in my Inbox.
If I misunderstood what you are asking for, then can you tell me how to reproduce what you are seeing (and be detailed. Your fast posts with little information are hard to understand at times).
actually im using your rom , XDA mobile r2a , great rom man ... i have not change it after i flashed it
look , i test that too , but look , if you dont read the message , phone keeps it and it save it and i dont know why !
but if you read it , 2 happening occurs after soft reset :
1) the message will be gone
2) it will be there but its unread
you see ? its like when you are writing sth in the MS Word , and you reset your pc , your document may be save or not at that moment , cuz word save it on periodic-specific time ... so it could be saved or not !
i have this problem with messaging too !
some times i soft reset it and i will have my unread messages that i've read them 5 minutes ago ... ( its the good part )
and the bad part is sometimes i lost those !
but if i soft reset after several minutes ( around a quarter ) , i will have them like when i was going to soft reset
after all , im sorry for my bad english !
I'm thinking that this might be happening because you're using the pin hole to soft reset. Use the power button on the top to shut it down and then reboot, unless your locked up for some reason, and that will probably stop happening. have someone send you an sms and then reset it that way and see if it still happens.
i think that will help , but it seems that most of people dont have this problem , even with holding stylus in the hole
Think of your wizard as a PC, using the power buton is like clicking start and then shutdown and using the reset hole is like pulling the plug while it's still on. Somethings bound to get lost if you pull the plug and usually does. You should really only use the reset hole if your phone is locked and you can't use the power button (that's why they make the hole so small )
yeah , you're right ! using power botton does not do that !
but why most of people do the stylus and the hole thing , without any problem ?! :-s

I'm pulling what's left of my hair out.. Somebody must know how to help me out.
My problem is. As a subby to a very large firm, I have been issued, along with hundreds of other guys, a T Mob MDA II details bit:-
R 1.06.01
G 1337.16
D 1.60.00WWE
I guess you'll need it. Well, an admin geeza has locked them all up sooo tight we can use it to make a phone call and oh yes the other thing receive a phone call.. Imagine my excitement!!!
NO menus no FUNctions nothing! just login as administrator. Now, though very basic, i have a laptop running W98, with Microsoft active sync 3.8, a comm D9 pin to cradle (XDA II from O2 shop) oh yes and no active sync!
what can i do to open access to this wonder of Tech and close the "Kiosk Switcher" window i may not escape from??
PLEASE HELP ME! P.s. great site guys, lookin forward to using my unit as soon as i can.
Doesn't it violate any company agreements/contracts if you modify your company issued MDA ?
Oh where to begin indeed...
Well, i have actually paid in full for the MDA. It's locked up to stop some ppl messing the things up. I'm not the brain of brit but i have a plan. 512mg MMc on its way and no danger of compant software being messed up. :idea:
Please do begin!! Help me..
Also, how long will it take for a donation receipt to come through, i'll need it for the tax man?
hi T3D,
did you try to hard reset it yet?
buzz
Hard reset
That's the power button and reset pin hold down thing yes? Well it all looked good! right up to the point when it ended at the locked window. back to Square 1
Thanks for the reply though.

Well, it sounds to me that they have modified a reg. string that gets loaded and written during the hard reset, (i.e. somewhere in the Ext_Rom!)
Try to press CANCEL while loading (installing) the ExtROM stuff and if the TAPDisable is functional.. then press on the center NAV button during the same process.
I know that restriction :evil: it sucks huh :?:
how about if you just reflash it to 1.72?
all that admin stuff will be gone as last year's snow...
you can even flash it with 1.60 stock version if you like...
buzz
still stuck!
Helpful.. Well, tried the cancel and nav button via hard reset and no joy as yet. now trying to read up on how to re flash.. Any suggestions? :?

Since you paid for it, take it to the admin geeza and tell him to unlock it.
Make sure you look menacing when you tell him.
Update!!
Joy, got in by nav keying the hard reset! Result, had a play but most s/w hadn't installed. This gave me a taste of things to come. Now i looked in the startup for this alpha sequence that boots the thing to locked window and realised it hadn't been installed yet so unable to get rid now i know it's there some where as i hard reset it again and back to sq 1 again!!! this stuff is stored somewhere, but where should i look. gained active link via IR aswell. will re try just need a map to the memory holding install S/W in the hope that maybe i can re write the lock up bit and hard reset to an open book!
Does any one know what the hell i'm on about???? :?
Now that you have succeeded in breaking the start-up sequence, you are left with a basic WM2003.
What did not install iis in the ExtROM.
IF
You install the ExtROM Tools (found on tis site), you can unhide the ExtROMand then one by one install the apps that are in there, UNTIL you find the one that introduces the blocking of functionalty. To do that (after unhide & unlock) look at the config.txt file. That file lists the installation script.
When you find the blocking app, one more time hard-reset, install the tools, inhide AND unlock and: Just remove the line with the app that introduces the blocking.
After you finished dont forget to LOCK the ExtROM & hard reset . . .
BTW Flashing is a good idea too, but maybe you lose some company-specific apps you might need . . .
good luck
I'm in atlast!!
Well i found the offending item last night after many resets and nav key meddling... looked in file explorer/storage and an auto run file(?) was there with a clue in it's title. i hadn't read the reply above at that time so i just put an mmc card in, cut n paste jobbie on the file to the mmc card and Bob became my uncle. I hard reset again to go for the full install and it stayed unlocked from the kiosk switcher!! RESULT! However, the above sounds like a far more sencible idea!! Will do that for the rest of the gang..
Thanks for all the help guys
oh one last Q' every 20-30 mins i get a pop up, bearing in mind i've been in every folder, programme and file, I may have changed a thing or two.. :?
"Cannot Connect
If you use a modem to connect to your ISP,
ensure that it is inserted correctly. To
connect to your work network, you must
create a modem (dailup) connection or a
VPN connection. To create a connection, tap settings.
Settings DISMISS"
What the F*** is that?? I'm still learning... What did i press?
...looks like some application is connecting regulary to internet over GPRS, but you didn't set it up yet. maybe email client...
buzz
Good point and makes sence!
I'll stop running programmes from start/settings/system/memory/running prog's, wait till it pops up and go look what's started, we'll see what it brings me..
As i type we find it's "acticesync". Cheers buzz, been a great help!!
i'm finding USB settings every where but my cradle is a D9 pin comm connection. Is there some specific settin listed in the instruction manuals we never had with the MDA's?
Oh yes. the V2.2 unlocker worked first time for me. No probs as yet to report... OPCS sim works fine. better signal in some places but only to be expected from a different network!
... it is funny...
i can remember, that there was a guy here on the forums, some time ago, asking how he can lock XDAs for employees... just wanted to allow them using the phone only...
maybe it was your geeza admin... ;o)))
try to search for those threads... maybe you'll find some interesting info..
buzz
Tellin me!
Buzz,
YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE..... Just how much info there is on Locking these up. Every site every official O2 an T Mob Site hold details on who, where and how to lock the babys up. Could i find a thing on unlocking?? Beleive me I did my home work. I know soo much about the selfish safe software and by total luck i heard of this site. Full of PDA guru's i was told!
Hat's off to you guys, you got a great, all be it, hush hush reputation!
Cheers for the guidence guys. If i wasn't told you could interrupt the installer i would have tied a noose round the MDA's bettery by now!! Hope this string helps others in my OLD shoes.

I've got an iMate JAM,
which is the samller version of the pda2k with 128mb of memory,
i had some software problems and the local supplier said its a known problem in this software verson. so they took it to upgrade it.
after upgrading, the telephone worked, however,(here is the problem)
i tried to restore my old data: contacts, emails, txt msgs, ...etc.
after restoring the pointer (touch screen) didnt work! i tried every thing that came into my mind ... restarting, soft reset , ... and nothing worked.
the only solotion was to do a hard reset. the device worked perfectly after doing the hard reset but i dont have my data !
i took it back to the agent who simply said: we're sorry you are not the first one... but you cannot restore your old data after upgrading!!! :evil: !!
- a friend advised to post the issue into this website (CUZ THEY'RE REALLY GOOD) :wink: he said!.. i really wish i could find a solution to my problem.. i need to restor my old data .
thanx.
best regards,
Bisho :roll:

Did you backup your contacts before upgrading and then restored back to your phone again after upgrading ?
By backup, I hope you mean via activesync?
no i didnt make a backup .. at all. do i need to make some kind of backup then to get the contacts menu to work???
as i cant even access the menu it goes to load but shuts itself ?
btw thanks guys for replies..
Oh dude, just hard reset your device. It'll be fine.
did you install pocketcm?
does your sms inbox still work?
ive tried hardreset... no difference.
yes my sms inbox works fine, this was with pocketCM and normal contacts list.
-Groovedude!
just go into the file explorer go to my device look for the pim file and rename it. then soft reset your device. it should work after that
does it matter what i should rename it to ?.... ?
i renamed the pim file to "c" soft reset... and HEY presto it works thank you everyone.
big thank you to thunda_chunky
no prob =] same thing happened to me b4
awesome just gotta setup my tmobile settings for mms etc now !
i bought my HTC just 2 months ago, no scratches but my phone takes long periods to get into an application, and sometimes when i write messages it just freezes... actually it freezes all the time. and on top of that it takes the wifi when is available but the internet pages do not load. nor the gprs.... can anyone help me please!!!!!
hi
hi
well u can make clear Storage so times it fix the problems , but u will lose data on the c: drive (where windows are no SD-memory)
Start>setting>look for "clear Storage"
enter 1234
yes
wait
and u will got bran new
another option
some time the memory get full
go to
internet Explorer>option>tools
Delete tempretery Internet file.
u will free some space
Maybe you can close some applications thru start - settings - system - memory and the 3th page. Otherwise a soft reset, this resets you're phone but not the data like "clear storage".
even after soft reset the phone is very slow and also when i try to write messages it just freezes... if i completely reset the phone im going to lose a program from which i can write in chinese... so are there any alternatives? i erased all the temp pages from the internet but i think i have too many contacts. (+100 contacts) could it be bc of that?
hey
hey there i had this same problem, my phone kept freezing so i returned i to vodafone who told me they were going to send it away for a new software flash. once it comes back ill let you know
i hope that its a softwere problem not a hardwere so
give me the full info for ur device and i will try to look about a new software the same as u have.(i.e HTC touch ,speed Ram and provider,maybe i can help u
P.S : if u have a warranty go for it it maybe coused by a hardwere failer and u dont want to make it cost u much.
Here is the thing:
when you got new sms or missed call if you read them and reset your device after wake up there is none of them still there!! that's right lazy WM keep loosing all your new sms if you don't give them a big rest time before reset!!
Don't believe it ? try this:
Text massage your self. after recieve it ,read it and then reset your device . after your windows boot up completely try to find your massage in inbox. It's gone? Yeees it's lost and there is no way to recover it back!! It's not majic . It's how WM works!!
I'm little bit confused why we call our device Smart Phone and all others Dumb phone!!
Any soloutions? Or any guess how much we have to wait till lazy wm save our data completely??
yeah , i have same problem .
whats the solution ? anything to save info , over and over ? thats annoying to be scared of loosing some text messages or calls or even files when we have pocket PCs!!!
ive got bored of this thing!
Come on guys!!
Isn't there any tweak , trick, dll modification for solving this problem?
At least any guess about the time we have to wait to have our calls history and text massages to be saved?
