Imate JAM- upgrade- pointer stuck after restoring.

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:

and don't need to double post.. I also answered in general section..
till so far no solution..
Did you manage to retrieve your contacts without errors?
Then try doing the suggestion I made in general section

Had you try use the TPEnable.exe fr the ext_rom?

Argggh!! I think I did something stupid.

I upgraded our first SPVM1000 (xda2 from orange) with WM5 and it all seemed to work fine.
I then up upgraded the second and it went fine. The second one is still workign completely fine with no problems. We noticed that the first one could not get reception. If you put its sim card in the other phone then it works. Now I tried with with Orange and Vodafone sims. They work in PDA 2 but in PDA 1 there is no reception (it was working yesterday).
Then it kept coming up with an error saying that it was sorry for the inconvenience but there was an error with cprog.exe.
After a reset (power button and soft reset button) that stopped happening but then I found that I could not active sync PDA1. It cant connect and so connects as "guest". After what used to be a hard reset, everything is still as though I just did a soft reset with WM5 - not sure why.
Then I tries to backdate it to the old rom. If I use OSImage tool it wants it to be active synced which doesn't work (v3.8 or v4.0). I also tried to reupgrade with WM5 again (a fresh installation) but althoght it will go into boot mode with Serial 1.03 and then USB 1.03 appearing on the screen, the upgrade fails. It says there is a communication error.
Everything is working with PDA 2 so it cant be a connection fault. I think I did something and now I got myself in quite a pickle.
Can anyone help please?
I'd be happy to reset / reboot right back to the beginning again though I'd like to keep WM5.
Thanks
Anthony

Solution (how to hard reset in wimdows mobile 5)
Hard resetting WM5 has fixed all of these problems including the phone reception. To hard reset (sometimes called clear reset in the forums) you have to press the tape and camera buttons and then the soft reset with the stylus. This is on an XDA2 (SPVM1000) and is different since upgrading to WM5 (prev power button and the soft reset did the trick). I found lots of websites giving different instructions on how to do this but for the XDA2 type this works.

big problem PLEASE HELP

my phone can no longer make or recieve calls, cant get to the phonce section of the phone no matter what, says i have no connection, yet can go online, has 3g icon, and can send and recive text. can anyone solve because the silly geese at AT&T said the only way to fix is to exhange and said thats not fixing it bub! so can anyone help

which ROM?

Try hard reset.

Are you running WM6.1 without a compatible radio?

no rom
i have every thing factory, all i did was tried to hard spl and i kept getting the white screen so i was unable to even get a new rom. i went to sleep woke up and boom no calls or phone feature, but everything else. so any clues

i had this problem too,when 3g icon appear on bar,i can't make any phone calls,receive calls,and data connection.but when the G icon appear,i can make phone...etc.i tried all solutions change the radio and roms,but still no luck.
i send my device to the warranty returns,and they changed it to a new one
i think that it is the tytn II problem.
my friend have a PDA store,and 3 customers complaining about this...
so send back your device for warranty
cheers

Hard reset first of all then let us know if it still doesn't work.

Randomly shuts off

Hey,
in the past couple of days my phone has just randomly shut off while I was using it (e-mailng). The screen will go blank and the green LED will stop blinking. I'm using HTCs latest room.
I called HTC support and they say I should send it in. Has anyone dealt with HTC repairs yet? I don't really feel like sending my phone in and then they can't do anything. I'm dependent on it.
Did anyone experience the same thing their phone? (random shut offs while using, not windows freezing)
Thanks,

My advice is dont send it in.
I had the same problem and i got it solved with a hard reset.
And while i was at resetting i though i'd upgrade to Gonzo's WM 6.1
Just do a hard reset or install gonzo's rom and you'll be fine.

Hi there, same problem here. Getting very annoying to type a message or try to dial a number and the damn thing shuts off. Doesnt happen all the time, maybe once a day or every other day. Have a updates skin on it from fireburned, not sure if that has any effect on it. On doing a hard reset, what will be lost on the phone so I know what to save first.

Hey There,
I have the same problem, I find it turns off in the middle of my calls. I think it might have something to do with the battery, because it doesn't seem to do it when it's plugged into a charger. I upgraded to Dr. Gonzo's WM 6.1, but that didn't fix the problem. Still happy that I upgraded though. Does any one have an idea of what's wrong?

I had the same problem, and tried several roms. Nothing helped. Then I flashed, so I had the newest radio etc. but that didnt help either...
I tried for a time not to install anything at all, but that didnt help, therefore I send it in to the repair shop. All they did was to hard reset it and send it back. Then I send it back and then they replaced the mainboard, and after that it works perfect...
But...
It might happend to your phone if you clock it to faster speeds. - But if your phone goes black without you installing any software then send it in.

if you hard reset, you will lose all your data, and you are going to restore all the settings to default
going to lose sms, mms, emial and stuff,
search somewhere in the forum , i've seen somewhere a great backup program but cant remember the name, you should try using it before hard reseting
cheers

Headset and boot screen problem

Hello,
I have a few problems with my Touch Pro.
First off it's keep saying that there is a headset connected i've tried to clean the connector's soft- hardreset but with out any luck, also searched the internet but no one has a solution even a reg fix would be great but can't find anything on it.
So i want to send it to HTC because i still have waranty but...
The second problem is that the boot screen is changed some how, it shows a kind of BIOS screen like a PC when booting up, the other problem is that i can't find the stock Dutch ROM for the TP which i need for the waranty it had a dutch rom on it when i bought it.
If anyone could help i it would be great
