Has anyone had any problems using Newspanel in WM6? It freezes up my Wizard completely after the first soft reset after install... am I alone?
I do know Newspanel is far from a completed program but it has run fine in WM5 for me so it'd be nice if there was a solution to this.

I've been trying everything and NOW even the offical ROM 2.2, it is locking up on me...

OK. The story goes like this....
I recently (about 4 months ago) bought and xda II mini. Love the phone, works(ed) brilliantly. Previously owned and loved an xda II and the mini has not disappointed.
So the phone’s working fine, and I’m bored one day and am cruising through the o2 website. I see there’s a ROM upgrade for the mini (1.11.00 WWE). I download and run the software which works a treat. All was just fine for about 3 days…until last night.
After using it for a voice call I press the power button to put it into sleep mode. The phone freezes. Not thinking this is overly strange I do a soft reset. Not suspecting that all is not well I put the phone down. After about 10 mins, I notice the backlight has gone off but it hasn’t gone to sleep. Strange. I touch the screen. Frozen. A couple more soft resets later I realise that once the backlight goes off OR I press the power button, the phone freezes. So I do a hard reset. Same thing. Uh oh.
I decide to run the ROM upgrade software again hoping this will rectify the problem. It gets worse. There’s no ExtROM on the phone. Now I’m at a loss. What’s gone wrong? What did I do? Why isn’t the ExtROM being installed?
Can anyone please help me install a clean 2003SE WWE for an o2 mini on Optus in Australia, or am I up the proverbial? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I’m not keen on sending it to Queensland for repairs.
Cheers, Paul
IMATE JAM is DEAD, does not boot....
I also have a similar problem, the story goes like -
My IMATE JAM was going perfectly fine, it also had the latest WWE ROM, no issues. Now for some reason, I download from www.pocketgear.com and install the trial version of "Pocket Mechanic" which also installs "Pocket Hack Master 2005". While trying out Pocket Mechanic, I use something called "registry cleaner" which is supposed to cleanup any incorrect/unused registry entries. After this I try "Pocket Hack Master 2005" which is a software to test the CPU speeds. As soon as I run this program, the screen freezes and my phone is dead. I try and reboot the device, but it is stuck at the blue boot-up screen. I am unsure whether my PPC died because of registry cleanup or because of "Pocket Hack Master 2005" software.
Anyways, now, I decide to re-install the WWE 1.12 ROM and start using the device. But, no luck, on the PPC - the blue boot-up screen does not go away and on the installer screen - "Checking information on your device... Please wait...." and is stuck.
I think the device is not booting up and hence is being not recognised by the PC as a USB device.
Please help... I am dead...!!!!
I think I've killed my o2 mini!! Pls help this poo
Well, in case anyone's interested. It appears the phone is back to normal. I trawled and trawled through this site and picked up tidbits of information on how to upgrade a ROM. I downloaded 1.12 and tried installing that which worked as badly as everything else I tried.
I decided to install the Asia shipped ROM (1.11), the instigator of all this mess, but via NemesisDE's method on page 4 of the sticky, instead of running the .exe file as per usual. For some reason, it appears to have taken it!!!
Yes, I'm excited. Even though no-one responded to my post, I got the info I needed from this site. Thanks so much to everyone who contributes here. You'd be surprised how some seemingly ridiculous things, help novices like me.
Thanks again!
flat liner...
what's the method? i think i've killed my mini, and desperately needed help... now i can't on my device and can't even go into the bootloader... please help me...
Does anyone have R66N7? I seem to have problems with it on all WM6.1 ROMs I have tried. At first I thought it was IPSMS, but now I am not so sure (as it has gone wrong again and I haven't installed IPSMS this time).
It appears to sometimes go wrong after syncing (Active Sync) and lately after using PPCPimBackup to restore files.
The common thing with these three things is Pocket Outlook (Messaging). You can see what happens in my screen shot . R66 still works, but is missing the button/info details as shown. Does anyone have any problem like this, or ideas? The only way I can get R66 back to normal is to hard-reset the device (uninstall/reinstall does not sort it out).
I had R66N7 and it worked perfectly! Now, I am with R66N8 and it works very well as well.. I have tried almost all WM6.1 ROM's here and all them works good with R66
Darn - just the reply I didn't want to hear. Must be my Uni
Nice to know that R66M8 works on Uni though. I may get an upgrade.
Have you a 64MB or 128MB Uni, though?
Hello all,
A simple question.
How can one tell what kind of a unit he has, is it WWE or is it ASIA or maybe another, I have bought my unit 2nd hand and since then had problems with the softwares and radio roms.
I have used WWE rom, and I just can not get all my contacts in, I have used ASIA and for a few days all was working fine, till something happens I reset the unit and either data is lost or the radio has no signal etc.
Another question, is it possible to stop the Automatic Customization after a hard reset???
Your help would be much appreciated.
WWE or Asia depends on installed ROM. Type can be Polaris 100 or Polaris 200, AFAIK, and is visible during hard reset.
What ROM are you using now? Looks like trouble with ROM or bad device.
Customization can be stopped, if I remember correctly, but you should check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277&highlight=Polaris+tips+tricks
Hi,
Many thanks.
For the moment I am using a cooked rom Khanx 1.6 Pro.
I was really fed up with the Original Rom as I said it was fine for a few days, working smoothly, even backups by SPB were fine, and suddenly one day the unit froze and I had to reset after the rest nothing worked, all data lost.
Even after Hardreseting I was having problems with 'VDDemon' each time, only after re-installing the rom for a few times I was able to go back to working with it.
I mainly use the unit for telephone (ofcourse), mail, notes and sms.
By the way when I enter bootloader, I can see POLA100 MFG, and the SPL-2.20.Olinex, CPLD-2.
And what I meant about the Automatic ..., when you hard reset the unit you get a windows saying that in 3 seconds and automatic instal is beginning, how can one stop this instal????????
So really I am not even having fun with it at all.
OK, Pola 100 is here too, but SPL is original HTC.
Could you try device for few days with "bare" ROM, meaning no other software installed? Maybe it's software incompatibility.
For stoping customization check thread I mentioned, think it's described there. But I might be wrong, it could be some another thread. In any case, I remember reading about it here and a way how it can be stopped.
My Polaris is stable as stable Windows device can be...

It is Oli's SPL...
Posted this over at PPCGeeks, but since there is a bigger GSM following over here, thought I might try and see what you guys think.
As the title states, something bizzare happened yesterday and everytime i open the physical keyboard it freezes my device andd i have to soft reset. only thing i can do is use the soft keyboard which defeats the purpose of having this device. i must have hard reset a dozen times and i even loaded the stock ROM again thinking i had a corrupt file system. fuunny thing is before and after hard a hard reset and I load the stock ROM and the device starts it to load the customization bloatwares it hangs on the ozim .cab instal and i am forced to soft reset to get it going. i am baffled. i called at&t and they are mailing me a new Fuze, but in the meantime i would like to to troubleshoot the device and get it working because i have no idea when i will get my new device. i am tempted to load a custom rom but i am convinced its a hardware issue. so any ideas, advice, they are all welcome, and if someone can extract the keyboard driver into a cab maybe i can give that a try. thanks in advance.
Flashed to RSW's 1.5 Fuze ROM and I still have the same issues. Could my system be corrupt, is there something in the registry I might look for?
i installed the cab for redfly on my phone and it wont get past the white att boot screen with the red version numbers in the bottom right. any ideas? i can hard reset my phone in hardspl but i prefer to use that as a last resort since i havent backed up my phone yet. i use microsoft myphone and didnt hit sync up before, i didnt think it would break wm like that. is redfly just not meant for 6.5 or something like that?
RU running 6.5? You will need to load a rom via hrdspl. Same thing happened to me.
+1 for learning this the hard way. RedFly and 6.5 do not like each other. I had to hard reset to get mine going again.
Frankly the RedFly and the TouchPro do not work well together even with 6.1. I have 2 RedFlys and both are on the shelf until I replace the phone. They worked great with my eTen X500, but that phone is not very good compared to the TouchPro.
I really cannot think of any way to get your data back. I assume you have tried to connect to the PC and browse to the phone? Maybe at the hard reset screen, you can connect. If so, just copy the PIM over and restore later.
Good Luck,
Doug M.
i had to hard reset. twice actually cause i tried again checking everything. well that sucks.
Bummer about your data. You may want to look at emoze. It will sort of do activesync OTA in real time. It will sync, contacts, email and tasks, but to your own PC, not the web. And your PC has to be running so you will need a desktop rather than a notebook. Kind of nice but not perfect either.
The emoze website has very little information. Best way is to install and see what it does.

Actually, my Touch Pro works great with my Redfly, I wonder why it doesn't' work well for you? It does really suck that the Redfly drivers don't work with 6.5, because I would definately be running a 6.5. It sucks especially since there are hardly any any new 6.1 ROMs any more.
development on 6.1 is done. 6.5 is the current os. and i cant leave finger scrolling and the performance of 6.5 behind.
