HP Ipaq h6315 Will not go into the OS - Freezes on bootup!

Hey guys!
While working on my PPC this weekend, I noticed that the system froze while just trying to open NYDITOT Virtual Display.
I tried doing a soft reset and after doing so the system freezes at the "Welcome to T-Mobile" bootup screen and it does not go into the OS (windows Mobile 2003 "Non-SE")
I tried pushing the soft reset button with the device OFF, without the battery, without the sim card, and nothing seems to work.
I cant even re-load the original ROM as Active Synch doesnt see the device due that I dont get into the OS.
Now luckely for me, T-mobile advised that i only had a 3 month warranty with them, which of course "expired" so i was hoping someone could suggest something that might help me resolve this problem.
Any help will be greatly appriciated.

RapiMgr hanging in Windows 7

I had been using Windows 7 for weeks withno issue (official beta, build 7000), then suddenly about a week ago I started having strange device issue. It started takin forever to go to sleep and when I got home and plugged in my usb hub or any usb devices directly in they would not be acknowledged at all. I think I have found the culprit. In the event viewer I am getting tons of errors from RapiMgr service not responding. Also, I cannot stop the service or terminate the process (WmdHost.exe) no matter how I try. I will restart and turn that service to manual startup now and see if I still get this problem. It doesnt happen all the time, but now that I think about it it may correspond with times where active sync wont connect for some reason (ie everything working fine but no active sync connection -> put it to sleep to go to class (takes forever) -> get home and plug in usb hub and nothing connects).
Anybody else have this issue? Was there a recent update to WMDC?

I'm also using the official Win7 beta, and I had a problem with WMDC when I first installed it. It wouldn't acknowledge that I plugged in my phone. I got really frustrated looking for a solution, and after a lot of cursing, investigating, and more cursing, I finally just uninstalled it and installed it again.
And if you can't uninstall it because you can't stop the process, try booting into safe-mode if you haven't already. If you don't know how to boot into safe-mode, hit F8 while booting Windows to have boot options come up, then select safe-mode. I haven't tried with Windows 7 as I haven't needed to, but in previous versions of Windows, I believe that was the key to press. Hope that solves the problem,
Dave

Thanks for the suggestions. There was no need to boot into safe mode as the process doesn't hang right after a reboot. It seemed to only start after running for a while. After rebooting I just uninstalled WMDC. I will see if the problem happens again but I am 90% sure WMDC is the problem. The question is just why would RapiMgr just start hanging all the time last week and continue to do so after a reformat? Perhaps the ROM that I am now running confuses activesync enough to cause it to freeze the process on my computer? I can't remember when exactly I started using this ROM. Hmmm. If I dont get the problem for a few days I think I will reinstall WMDC and then disable advanced network functionality in USB to PC on the device.
BTW, when I reformatted I decided to go to W7 build 7068. Not really any noticeable changes I dont think, but a nice new login screen background. MS did a very nice job with W7. So polished looking and a joy to use.

Touch Pro constantly soft resetting itself (3 Aust)

Hi Guys,
I've been an owner of a Three-branded HTC Touch Pro in Australia for over a year now, with no major issues with it except for the multitude of WM bugs and lagginess I've grown to accept.
A year ago I loaded SPB Mobile Shell and I have a couple of other apps but not many that I use frequently. The phone is mainly used for calls, messaging, syncing with my Outlook calendar and contacts, and browsing the internet
A day ago the phone began behaving very strangely, with no rational explanation as to the trigger or cause.
The phone has begun randomly and frequently soft resetting itself. This can occur when I'm in the middle of writing a text message, on a call, or browsing the internet (or whilst doing anything else, really). The phone will go blank, the vibrator will vibrate once, then the 'Touch Pro' logo welcome logo will be displayed as it reboots.
The phone will then either:
(A) wait for me to enter my PIN
or
(B) go straight past the PIN screen through to the home screen
If I do not enter my PIN after this (either at the PIN screen or by invoking the PIN screen by selecting the Phone app), the soft-resetting issue doesn't occur. However, this leaves me with a useless brick, unconnected to any networks.
So I have to enter my PIN and then wait for the device to mysteriously and randomly soft reset itself at some point soon. Extremely frustrating.
Interestingly, I've found that the soft resetting issue doesn't occur when the device is plugged into the mains power or to a computer.
Today I upgraded the ROM to the latest available on the 3 website, and then installed the latest version of Mobile Shell 3.5. However the issue still persists...
I've now managed to disable the PIN request so that when the soft resetting occurs, the phone is automatically reconnected to the network but I'm not sure what sort of never ending loop of resetting this will create!!
Any clues???

So as a follow-up to this issue, my phone appears to have mysteriously fixed itself.
It is no longer resetting itself... or at least I haven't witnessed it reset itself.
Could anyone provide a potential analysis of what's going on??

Things like this happen for a few reasons, A bad flash, Corrupt blocks in the memory, and even if the device gets too hot, if it happens again i suggest you use a tty program like mtty of putty to format your device before flashing a new rom

HP 614c problem

Hello.
I have this device for more than two years and after changing sim card it wont boot. It was stuck at Windows Mobile boot picture which after waiting went black. After allot of rebooting (including clean reboot) sometimes it started up but was slowed down like snail. I was able to update it from OS-v1.00.03 to OS-v1.01.04 and from FW-v0.81 to FW-v0.88.
After that it boot up more often but is still awfully slow. Now I was trying to find update to wm6.5 hoping this would help but with no success (factory recovery didn't work either).
I am out of ideas what to do to get it running back again. Can someone give me directions what to do (if this is even possible to fix)?
Edit01:
I have been able to upgrade to "23562 Beta 37 by kioeved". After upgrading, first boot stopped at Windows boot screen. After few rebooting system started (slowed down) barely. I am getting feeling that this is hardware problem but I don’t know how to determine that.

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
I take it to service and they send it to HP. After a month I received new device free of charge. I have upgraded to wm6.5 nad it looks good.

[Q] Encrypt Storage on DHD running JellyTime R29

Hi guys,
I have a DHD running JellyTime R29. I've been extremely happy with the ROM. Unfortunately my Exchange active sync suddenly decided to force storage encryption. I tried to encrypt the phone but it seems that that the process never starts. When I start the encryption process a Green Android with gears appears and it stays like this forever... No text or counter. If I press the home button, the phone is fully operational, but never gets encrypted.
I really miss my exchange account on the phone and it's actually really nice to have the encryption working.
P.S. I tried posting the question in the JellyTime thread but since I'm new to the forum, I can't post there. Any help, ideas or requests for additional info/logs are welcome.
-Cheers
