Broken hp ipaq rx3715 - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I've had my RX3715 for about a year and a half now, one day, it just froze. So I restarted it, the restart loads and when it's fully loaded the screen is just frozen. I tried a hard reset and the same thing happens. I even tried taking the battery out and resetting and still, the screen remains frozen once the loading bar is full. I've also tried a siftware update from hp but the problem still persists ...

When did you noticed it? What had you done to it prior (program installation/removal, flashing a new rom, etc)
It could be that you damaged the screen somehow, so you may want to consider sending it to HP as well.

My problem occured one night when I was surfing the internet via wi-fi and opera browser ... At a certain moment my pda stoped responding and showed the busy icon ... I tried soft reset but nothing happened .. so i took the battery out ... And from that night it stopped working ... I think my problem is not a hardware one, because I took a good care of my pda

Or can anyone give me some programs to dump the rom from a working ipaq to a computer and flash it to my broken ipaq ... Because i have a feeling that the rom from hp website is just an update, not the entire rom

Unlike with computers, if you see a "Rom Update", you will have a brand new OS in that package. In a PDA, you don't have much space to be installing fixes or service packs (a la Windows) so they rather fix the bugs and release a new version of the OS in the form of an "update".

So, is there any free solution for fixing my broken ipaq ?

Can anyone help me with a rom dump for this pda ?

Same problem.
Hey, i just got my friends ipaq to try fix and the exact same things happened to him, sadly i haven't found a way to fix it, have you? Do you have any link or something to help flash this thing? Any help would be greatly appriciated. Thanks.

I bought another ipaq with a broken lcd screen, and changed the motherboard ... Now works like a charm

It'll require a hard reset .... backup everything with Sprite or SPB Backup first.

The other day I exchanged my 2 week old Atom for a new one since there were bugs in the Radio. For some reason the Atom would decide that the radio functionality would just turn off, but not let me know about it. Someone would call and they'd get the message that my phone's turned off even though on my screen it would say I have signal (Flight mode turned off). I wouldn't know it wasn't working until I'd try to make an outgoing call and just get 3 beeps and a call that lasts 0 seconds. After turning Flight mode on and off again everything would be fine until the phone decided to do it again (few hours later).
I thought I had the latest radio version, does anyone else have/had this issue at all? Maybe I had the same rom but older radio, maybe I had a faulty unit. Had the new phone for a day and haven't noticed it happen at all yet....
I did have one period yesterday that I didn't get any E-mail warnings through SMS messages, and after a soft reset I got four. But I attributed that to problems with the network. Except for that I haven't had any such problems.
No More internal stroge Memory After Update.
Hi All,
I also have updated the rom and it seems much better.But did any one experience or noticed about the internal storage. when i updated to Xda-Atom-ENG-20060123 the stroge memory has been disappered.Even I've checked the File Explorer cannot see the stroge.
Just see the pics which i've taken b4 and after.
According to O2, it's been reallocated to more storage memory, instead of a separate partition. IMHO, that's much better than having to deal with an extra folder or location to store stuff.

Solved - Bricked after removal of pim.vol

Hello.
I don't like to post a request for a first post
but that's I'm gonna do
I owned a HTC Tornado (Sda T-Mobile) since one year and seven months bought on ebay an occasion
It's running on Wm5 (never installed Wm6 or 6.1)
Last time I've reinstalled my os (from an image) and I've forgotten to put in that last os image
the active sync preferences
so I've done what I've done two times, delete the file 'pim.vol' in the phone
by renaming 'pim.vol' by 'pim.vo' or something like that
from memory that was difficult so I've decided to move that file to another directory
after that I've made a mistake with the synchronization of outlook and the device by deleting the wrong profile
anyway it was late in the evening and I left that situation to go and sleep
I left the phone charging during the night
since that operation the phone is blocked after entering the sim pin code,
I left two pics to summarize the situation
the first shows the phone with the sim card inserted

the second one shows it without the sim card

I left it a few hours but no change on the screen
I've tried the reset operation with the soft keys and the one with camera button and the communication button
it doesn't help
I've read on that forum that the problem can come from a defective battery, I'm gonna try to find a new one
maybe on ebay maybe in my town I'm located in Lyon France
I saw a similar post to mine
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399910
I saw in a post that there is a battery on the rom that keeps the date and clock time,
I'm gonna try to take if off and replace it
Thanks in advance for your opinions
Bye
You just need to flash the phone with some working ROM. If the phone is not CID unlocked, you will need to look for the original rom for that phone.
The pictures show no extra-ordinary problem. What you mean is it stuck in the booting.. this may happen because of some corrupt in system files.. you can solve it by just hardresetting. if hardreset is not working try reflashing the rom. But becareful not flash with wrong rom and be sure to super cid if the rom not a original one.
Solved
In fact I made the mistake to push the power button to long (more than 1 second)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=363680&highlight=reset
to hard reset your phone
Turn off phone, press both softkeys and then press the powerbutton for exactly one second!
Thanks Guys
and thanks for the forum

New error: "Your OS ROM isn't customized for your hardware."

I was using my phone normally, (chatting on msn and got a text message) when the phone locked up completely. Mine hasn't ever just locked up before but I waited a minute to see if it would recover before I finally used the stylus to do a soft reset. But instead of booting now my phone just displays this message.

Rebooting the phone from that just gave me the same message. I could still get into the boot-loader etc so I did a hard-reset on the phone. Still got the same message.
I was about to try flash a new rom to it when I thought I'd try pull the battery out, wait a couple of minutes and put it back in. Now my phone boots again!
I'm not sure if it would have worked without the hard reset or not but obviously some hardware had got itself into an error state and a hard/soft resets wouldn't clear it.
Good luck.
heh. thats very interesting.
hmmm what rom were you running?
It was ROMeOS 1.62 but I suspect it was a hardware problem as opposed to just something in the ROM because a hard reset didnt fix it. Not until I pulled the battery out did it boot again. I figured that seeing I had reset it and had to set the rom up again I'd change to ROMeOS 1.70
I just posted it because I hadn't ever seen this before and figured I'd save someone else panicing for a few minutes.

This message typically means that OS loader could not initialize the hardware. If the ROM you are using was cooked with a XIP from another model, it's possible that there are some weird compatibility issues.
Another possible cause if corruption of RAM of NAND flash data...
just had the same problem on mine. Thank god for this forum! i was freaking out
BTW, I am running one of NATF's ROMs, too lazy to look up the version right now
OMG, just got the same problem on blackstone...
Same resolution except that I had to wait 15 minutes with the battery out before it worked again...
Thank you very much for the post!!!

If my theories on this are correct, your battery is loose. Open up your phone and check if your battery slides around.

Strange Touchscreen behaviour

Suddenly (well, I had just installed WifiKeyboard when this happened to me, but I don't think it's relevant) my touchscreen develop a dead zone. Just above hardware buttons. If i touch this zone, my phones thinks I'm pressing with one thinger above this zone and with another thinger below it. Just like the picture shows.

}
(Note that it's a complete symmetrical dead zone. It's a perfect rectangle)
It's strange. I was on Codename 4.1 JellyBean. I didn't change anything, (I descarted that this might be a Rom problem, I put back the stock rom and the problem persists). I don't rember any serious smash in the last few days. I had already changed the touchscreen once, because I broke it and the jerk that replaced the screen glued it terribly bad so the screen is a little bit loose (i think that maybe something entered through this space and ****ed the screen, but i don't know)
Also read someguys talking about chep chargers that might broke the touchscreen or something like this ( I recently used a blackberry's charger for a day) and that It might be something with the drivers of the touchscreen.
I had no idea.
Any clue?

Sorry!
Did you restart your phone?
If that doesn't help, do a factory reset.

Then it's broken.
It's not the software, then it must be the hardware.
Last suggestion: Turn off the phone, take out the battery and touch the pins where the battery goes. Put the battery back in, turn on your phone and see if it works. I've heard of static electricity giving all sorts of problems. Grounding the phone (touching the wiring) might do the trick.

I'm sorry you paid 80 dollars for your touchscreen? What a ripoff... I got mine off ebay for around 40...38 to be more precise. 80 is way too much for an SL.
