htc Touch Cruise / Polaris / 3650. - Touch Cruise General

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...

Right i have faria wm6 ROM on my phone it is unlocked and i did all the steps to installing as to the instructions on this forum. Now heres wots happening my device will not load past the boot screen where it says windows mobile unless i take the battery out, now i thought it might be because of the new american dst so i ran the microsoft cab to patch it up. Well no luck there i sync my time it lags so much so i take the battery out it resets to feb 2006 and it's fine. Also active sync is a pain when you click sync the bar comes up at the bottom and thats it no roatating arrows the softkey does not change to stop. Also when i configure my exchange it says message format and i can change to plain txt or html well wen i first used it i could change it to html but now its stuck on plain txt but i dont know whether thats a setting my exchange provider has to change on there sever - i dunno. But it all seems to revolve around active sync and the devices time. Please help or point me in the right direction because i would hate to go back to t-mobiles rom which is boring!

This post makes no sense to me. First you say you can't boot past the 3rd splash screen (Windows MObile 6). Then you start talking about doing cab files and other stuff (which indicates you are past this screen and working on your device).
Please take a breath and give us more information and full details of exactly where you are at. You also have to tell us your current IPL, SPL, and OS versions that show when you boot the phone (we need exact numbers to be able to help). Is your phone a G3 or G4? What is the last / current ROM you have on your phone? Are you now able to get into your phone (ie: did you flash back)? Is your phone CID Unlocked?
Sorry for my confusing post. I am able to get past the boot screen if i take my battery out and put it back in but turning on normally It wont get past if you get what i mean. further explained below...
Heres my numbers: ipl is 2.21, spl 2.21 os 2.18 gsm 02.19.11 , it is CID unlocked, it was flashed to farias rom from t-mobiles latest rom. Ive flashed farias rom twice now going back to t-mobiles first in both instances.
The main problem i seem to get is with the devices time - i'll try to explain this as well as i can - if the devices time is set to now then it is really slow and active sync does not work and the today screen will only show the time and nothing else like messaging, live, tasks, calender etc. and if you reset the device it does not get past the boot screen. Taking the battery out therefore reseting the devices time it works great but changing the time back to now and it lags again. Hope you understand this
P.S. I have installed microsofts dst patch

I honestly don't know if this will help, but you might try flashing the latest TMobile US ROM to get you to 2.26 instead of 2.21
http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/Software_List.cfm?selDevice=24
Then flash Faria's over that. Note that the 2.26 ROM will put the 2.25 Radio on your phone. You may want to then get the 2.19 UK radio from the ftp site here and go back to that one (I find the 2.19 works better than the higher versions on WM6 for me).
Also (and maybe before doing what I just suggested) try either turning off BatteryStatus, or upgrading it to 1.04.201 Beta 3. There have been fixes and I had a lockup problem (I couldn't reboot my phone if the USB cord was plugged in and BatteryStatus 1.04.200 Beta 2 was running). I'll attach the cab to this post.

Are you overclocking or anything? Have you installed other apps, or does it work this way right after installing Faria's WM6 rom?
Faria's WM6 ROM is very good and I've never seen stuff like this reported so it seems its something with your setup. You could try flashing the fixed mUn's ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1172977&postcount=361 ) and see if it behaves the same way. If it does then you have an issue with your phone it would seem. If it doesn't then its an interaction with software on the device.
P.S. I have installed microsofts dst patch

You don't have to install this on WM6.

XDA Neo problems, stuck at ipl, spl, gsm screen, bluetooth not working Please Help

Hello friends, this is my first post in prophet forum, though I had been a ppc user for more than 2 years. 5 months back, I bought an O2 XDA Neo, which was loaded with a dopod rom, with numbers coming up as 2.09.001 etc during startup. Shortly after purchase, I flashed with RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship rom. Everything went on well, and I was using the phone without problems for the past 2 - 3 months. Well not exactly without problems, some times when I reset the phone, it gets stuck at the spl, ipl screen, and I have to reset again many times to get it to load windows. I initially thought the problem may be due to the battery not being charged fully, but later I found that battery charge is not the problem, as the phone not booting became more and more common even with a fully charged battery. Even when I managed to get the phone started after repeated and frustrating soft resets, I started to get corrupt PIM data, like the contacts and calendar applications not starting up. ALso strange folders with name y? and y?? appeared in the phone memory. THese folders could be deleted only with Resco Explorer. Also the bluetooth was not working properly, that is when I turn it on using the comm manager, the blue tooth icon gets activated but actually no bluetooth is turned on. Later after a soft reset, bluetooth turns on but now the icon in comm manager is not activated. I did a hard reset a couple of times thinking that this problem will be rectified, but all the problems continued.
Going through the forum i read some where that JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship was one of the most stable roms for this phone, so I set about flashing this rom. I used ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID and the update went on till 95 % when it showed error 326. I tried again, with the same result. I later flashed RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship back, and the phone is working as before.
NOw I would like to get the following problems corrected
1. Phone getting stuck at ipl, spl, gsm screen
2. Proper working of bluetooth as I would like to use it with my BLueant Supertooth II
WHat will be the correct these prolems ? will the imate rom correct these problems, if so how am I to go about loading it ? or is there a better one than what I am having now ? or is it a HARDWARE problem ?
I am very sorry for this extremely long post, but I felt if I said all my problems in one post, I would get better response.
PLease help....
You should have stayed with the RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship ROM from the beginning, since it's the best and also latest official Prophet ROM. It's a 2.20 ROM which is the latest available.

Problem: Polaris set back itself to delivery-state!

Yesterday, my Polaris with original HTC WM 6.1 set back itself to the delivery state. When I where at work, I wondered, because the battery was suddenly empty. I have charged it on Sunday.
After I have begun to recharge it for a short time, I switched it on. The Polaris told me to calibrate the touchscreen. After it, It started with the assistant for first steps of WM. I canceled it and then I where on the Home Screen. The HTC Home and the Plugin for G-Alarm where lost. When I tried to start a program I have installed some time before, it hadn’t worked. All programs I had installed for my self, seemed to be lost. When I tried to start them, there comes the failure like comes when I’ll install them (the program is from an unknown developer…; I don’t know the text in English exactly, because it is in German on my Polaris) All the SMS where lost and the Plugins on the Program Tab of the HTC Home and the Phone numbers in the Cube where also lost.
All seemed that the Polaris is in delivery state, but the installed programs where still in the list of programs in settings of WM.
The last way for me was to install the ROM now onto the phone. After I’ve installed it new today, WM 6.1 again, all worked very well and I’ve installed some programs like finger menu etc. new. After one restart while an installation, the problem comes again. The whole Phone seemed to be in delivery state. The only change is now, that the phone-program of the Polaris in WM doesn’t work anymore. When I click onto the telephone receiver- picture in WM, nothing happened. Earlier the screen comes, where I have to input my pin-number.
Have anybody an idea, why the mistake happened and what I can do to repair it? Is it a soft- or hardware mistake? I have no Idea what I could do to repair it. The last way I could do is to send it to the dealer where I’ve bought it, because I’m still in guarantee-time, or has anybody an idea, how I can repair the software without send it back for repair?
Regards from Germany,
Robert
Robert,
Get that phone right back to the SUpplier, as its clearly hardware issue. You have tried to re-flash with original 6.1 which was succesful.
btw just curious, did you try using the phone standard without adding new apps for a few days just to see if it was stable or not?
Might be a good idea to do this, just so u can be sure its not a software clash.
Thanks for your fast answer, timmymarsh!!
I've only tried the phone a few minutes without any apps. Then I installed only 4 or 5 small apps, which I've used before I had the first problems on monday over a long time.
This day I watched onto the invoice of the phone. I bought it last year at the end of April. So I will send it as fast as possible to the supplier, that I won't loose my garantee.
After your post I'm pretty sure, that it should be a hardware issue.
If I had a longer rest of the garantee time, I would try it without apps some days, but in this case I'll play safe...
have just had exactly the same problem only have been using the udk syrius r7 rom for last few months, turned phone off while in work and on turning back on losing all contacts etc. have tried reflashing with r8 beta & had same problem have now flashed 3lit3-VI rom and seems 2 b ok now.

the indications given looks like due to the battery was drained, so you will lose all applications been installed as well as data and information on the ram (sdcard will survive). in worst cases, your device will stay on bootloader mode, will not loading the rom, though hard reset when battery full can resolve the situation.
Unless you can find hardware related reason to draining your battery higher than normal, no i dont think it is hardware related.

Diamond Loosing data, then reeboot, then data corrubt

Hello.
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask about this, but i'll just give it a try.
Recently my diamond started acting weird. Suddently some data wasn't there (Like contacts), and then after some time the phone freezes. Then i reeboot the phone by pressing the Reset button in the back, and then when it boots again, it is trying to make the firstboot screen again, but it cannot configure again because there is no more space for that. :S
Then i Re-flash the phone, and it works for like 3 hours and then Does the above again.
Anyone know what this can be, and if i can correct it?? I think it is some sort of hardware thing, but hope you guys know better
I know how to flash and some other things, but see me as a newbie (no fancy Words pleace )

Diamond GSM 100

Hi
I don't know if your problem is similar to the I had, where my phone would freeze at a random point and resetting was the only option. After the reset the phone would delete everything on the main memory (including messages and contacts). After a month with reflashing different roms, I think I kind found a solution that I hope also works out for you:
1. Download the original stock rom from HTC:
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483
2 Install it by following this guide:
The DEFINITIVE MTTY Thread!! - Diamond Edition
by MysticGenius. (The method basically deletes everything and gives you kind of a fresh start)
3Now everything should hopefully be working smoothly and you are free to reflash it with your favourite rom
Good luck (^.^)

[HD2 + S2U2] Problems with receiving calls

Two days ago I was forced to do HR and installing everything from the beginning (including a program S2U2). Previously this program had a perfect set up there that everything worked as it should. Unfortunately, after HR had to set options from scratch since it abolished the settings file.
And here the problems begin ... see if I have locked the phone S2U2 program and comes to me is a combination of:
first screen (turns and shows the caller's picture) inform me of this after about 3-5 seconds
second ring with the vibration is also included in the time (despite setting a ringtone + vibration)
thirdly, when I answer a call by sliding it all hangs ... slider is not working, the game is still ringing, vibration "beeps", the keys to lock the phone (along with the key with a green handset). Only one I can turn off the phone by removing the battery.
And what is strange when you restart your phone, such a combination is not recorded in the history of the device (as if it was not at all).
What can I do about this? Do you have any solution?
PS. Just please do not force me to re-HR (the latter has already resulted in almost two days removed from the life of uploading and installing everything back on the phone)
After several hours of testing anything new did not work.
And I tried off the SENSE (on a clean windows), enabled SENSE but uninstall S2U2 still the same: when I receive a call the screen locks up and I can not in any way to answer this connection (shown a picture of the caller and a ringtone that lasts indefinitely until the remove the battery) ... Sometimes when I set S2U2 slider can receive and answer the call even talk during conversations, but everything is blocked and only helps to remove the battery.
I also noticed that it stopped working light sensor which is not to extinguish the screen ...
OS: 5.2.21869
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.48.479.1 WWE
Radio: 2.05.51.05_2
are you still on official 1.48 rom? i suggest you to upgrade to a newer rom and, if you go for a custom rom, make a task 29 before that. I think there is not better option, sorry. btw, it is only my opinion. good luck.
You think so?
Previously (before HR) also had the same ROM, the same programs installed and everything worked well.
Or is it a problem or some settings SENSE software like S2U2, BSB Tweaks, XT Hacks2 etc. ...??
Well, but if only to help it load a new ROM to install the new Windows wchciałbym 6.5.x, the new ROM, the new SENSE etc ...
Can you describe the order in which what can I do?

are you using xt hacks2? leave that program, it may be the cause of your problems. still, you need to upgrade
i cannot guide you step by step as i'm not so good in english, anyway, if you go for custom rom first you have to HSPL your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
then you have to choose your rom, there are plenty out there, in the end you have to flash, it's not that complicated believe me, you will need 15 minute to do all these things. if you never flashed your phone you don't even need to perform a task 29 right now, just remember to do hard reset after you flashed the rom.
flash rom, radio, hspl are all done with same operations: plug phone to pc with activesync, launch exe files, wait
Ok I understand.
But in what order do I install it?
First install the ROM, next RADIO , then WINDOWS 6.5.3 (I have Windows 6.5) and HSPL?

windows mobile is already included in rom
1) HSPL
2) RAdio, this step depends on what custom rom you pick, there are custom rom with radio included, others without the radio (in this case you have to install suggested radio), see the rom thread for more informations
2) Flash rom
3) hard reset
take a look here, there is a tutorial for noobs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
easier way? install a stock rom 1.66, you don't have to HSPL and worry about which radio choose, it is all included
my GF has the same prob on her HTC mega (touch 2)!
on mine HD2, all works fine....
