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.

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

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.

Is my S200 beyond repair?

After I tried to upgrade the rom to WM6, my JAMin got stuck at bootloader. After that, I tried to flash WM5 roms without success and suddenly (after a reset) the screen became white with some horizontal and vertical lines constantly moving. I discovered that it was only the screen that was garbled as it still connected to PC, so I installed (without seeing anything on my JAMin) the NVID ROM trying to restore it. It installed sucessfully, but the screen remained garbled with the white background and random lines. I know it was sucessfully installed because I heard the typical "welcome" sound before configuration.
Do you know any way to restore the screen? Or must I send it to I-Mate to repair?
You can try and reattach the screen cable to the rest of the device, but this will boid any warranty you have, and may damage your device further. If the device is under warranty, I would suggest flashing the ROM the device came with (unfortunately the FTP server is down at the moment, so it might take some fishing around for) and sending the device back to get repaired properly.

Hi frd,
I have exactly the same problem!
Nothing , only the f*** white screen!
I can browse the device via active sync, can rcv calls but the white screen.
I have checked the ribbon connector of the LCD and make reflashing some ROMs but nothing.
I still wondering is it hardware or software problem!
Please let me know if you have progress!
Thanks
G.
Try to replace LCD module, I think thats right way.
It will be a hard ware problem. Probably the ribbon cable as the screen is showing something so it must be working at least a bit.
Hello,
i have the same Problem with my QTEK S200.
First i changed the Rom and it worked perfectly for two days.
Then i had to change my Sim card and after that the problem came again.
I tryed a lot of times to reflash the rom but the problem persist.
How can it be that it worked again for some days ?!
is it the touchscreen of the lcd unit i have to replace ?
is it possible to do it by my self ?
thanks for your help !
Hi everyone.
I had a similar problem an hour ago (Qtek S200 G3):
I Upgraded to a 6.1 rom and then to another, after that my device was stuck in bootloader(3 colour screen). Any 6.1 rom that I tried would install, but after installation device always boot in to the 3 colour screen.
I tried this original shipped rom http://files.mail.ru/HZUAH1 (it's WorldWidwEnglish) (to download just click the link "скачать" or the file name RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe
) and it installed!!! It TAKES A WHILE TO INSTALL!!! But it worked!!!
May want to try it.
Hope this helps.
hello,
picture on screen was immediatly clean again ( bootload image ).
it was impossible to change the rom because i have a G4 model.
i flashed the rom with another french rom for G4 and it worked perfekt.
now i tried to remove the battery again for 3 seconds and now i have the same problem again. really strange ....
i tryed the same procedure again but no success.
I reinstalled differents rom's again starting always installation from bootloader.
After about 10 new installations i've clean picture again.
now i'll not put off, restart, or take of battery till one of you know what's the problem.
Thank you for your help !!
are you guys sure its not an intermitant hardware problem, it sounds like it to me. if yu were able to get a clean picture for a short time and now its white again, it cannot be the rom? As for replacing it, nothing is impossible and there is always ebay and google
QTEK S200 G4 CID unlock

For G4 CID unlocking, you need to user Hard/Soft SPL.

Well, i upgraded to windows Mobile 6, but haven't removed the batterie anymore.
But i'm able to put it off now, what was impossible before.

Windows Phone 7 Error Code: C101002E

I have been having this error where the phone prevents itself from booting, showing a screen that tells you to connect to PC , for a while. Only way to fix it is to remove the battery and restart but that is just a temporary fix. What exactly is this? What causes it? Is it a software issue or a hardware issue? Should I get an exchange or do you guys think this will be fixed with the next update?
Thanks
Never seen that error message. I'd say reset once, if you see it again, get it exchanged.
Yea this my 4th HD7 it shows the error code when you plug it to the PC in zune. Funny thing is that I owned a speck case and I reboot the phone in the case till then. This time i pulled the battery out, put it back in and powered the phone on without the case and it is working fine. I guess the case is pushing down a button or sth and that prevents the phone from working properly. Very weird..
Hey there! I've been having the same error! This is my 2nd HD7, I own the Speck case and I do not think its the case. This issue is happening on mine with or without the case. Pulling out the battery just doesn't cut it. I have to:
1. Remove the battery
2. Plug the USB Charger
3. Insert the battery back
4. Turn on.
I love the phone but this is really frustrating!
Edit: Too bad I can't post the link to youtube due to member status. But the video is up just search for it "c101002e"
Just happened to me too. First day using the Speck case too and i let the battery drain till it died and upon reboot it showed the 'plug into computer' screen. Hope it is just the case causing problems.
did you all updated the sd card ?
you could try to reflash this rom (if you are on t-mobile USA ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810346
Take this one "RUU_Schubert_TMOUS_1.20.531.01_Radio_5.51.09.11a_2 2.31.50.09_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE"
its just the stock tmous rom .
Weird coincidence that all of y'all are using the same case. Maybe it is damaging on of the buttons?

somewhere on the board they did tell that this case make the buttons really sensitive and it make the phone unusable .
theres a thread on tmobiles forums talking about the same issue, and most if not all the people there have the speck case. Someone says they tested it with and without the case and came to conclusion that the case is putting too much pressure on the camera button, which seems to be causing the problem.
would post the link to the other forum but i cant find it lol

Yea that was pretty much what was happening to mine. Although I remember trying to boot it without the case and having the same error before so what I did that I did a hard reset ( press power and both volume buttons at the same time) then when the phone booted, I rebooted it without the case immediately and its been working no problem since. I am pretty sure that case pushes the camera button since it grips the phone very tightly. I even overloaded the ram by opening lots of apps that runs in the background and then rebooted but it is working perfectly fine as of right now. Weird.. I am guessing its just a weird bug not a hardware defect.
I found it in a post in the mozart forums, so i tried it, as you do, cause its something new to play with cause my TP2 didnt like swimming, but anyway it was something about hoding down the camera button while power on, and it brought up a picture of a phone and cable and instructing you to plug it into a pc and when i did it started Zune and something about restoration error, so like in the previous posts it may be a stuck or faulty button somewhere on the phone that is causing it.
i didnt watch the video so if that had it in it never mind
cheers
Today 11 April 2011 I got notification about NoDo update for my phone.
It is HTC Mozart on Orange France network.
The pre-NoDo update was istalled about 20 days before.
The update got stuck at step 8. It seemed I had an unusable phone. In a periodic reboot mode into the update screen.
I checked on my W7 64 bit laptop the relevant backup folder, where all my phone data was supposed to have gotten backed up during the update. The folder was empty.
I therefore realized my phone got its rom corrupted during the update and I could not get back my pre-NoDo backup, since this latter was missing from my laptop.
Zune was on no help, stating a C101002E error.
The Windows Phone Support Tool was also of no use, reporting an error code while trying to restore my data.
XDA-forum provided me with a solution:
I went here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000781
and downloaded both bootloaders with relative roms.
After getting into the bootloader screen (red, green and blue screen), I installed the first ROM provided by Ansar. This could not install succesfully.
With the bootloader tool I could nevertheless confirm my idea I did not have anymore a functioning rom into my phone.
The second rom, the one ending with "Signed_by_ansar" could be succesfully installed.
I now have a Mozart fully functioning.
I had to restore my windows live account, Gmail, etc. My apps did not come back up after syncing with Zune.
I realized I just lost all my SMSs and home screen settings.
My phone was originally network unlocked and remained as such.
I got a notification that there is an official update for my phone the first time I rebooted. I will wait before attempting this update. The ROM by Ansar has got anyway copy/paste, being a NoDo ROM.
The ROM from Ansar, although for Orange France, removes the Orange splash screen when the phone starts. I guess if I need to use warranty on this phone right now I may have some issues with Orange France. Maybe when I update the phone following the update notification I got, I will re-establish a fully certified Orange ROM.
i9o pls and any one pls help me , i faced problem with [260] connection problem between my hd7 and pc vista 64 bit, actually i followed to steps in forum (error code C101002E) and drivers were installed (htc usb sync) before i started to flash rom NoDo bootloader 1, But no way still the problem [260]. i also tried another RUU htc asia xxx707xxx. because i have spl 1.23.2250.0(112138).also some links of RUU to download signed by ansar disappeared in rapid and other sourses, pls help to solve connection problem
Microsoft has release the Windows Phone Support Tool to fix this problem: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2530409
WPS doesnt help in my case, Im malaysian and thought that need Asia RUU, but when i tried Europian RUU it nicely works, maybe because of i have 8G phone. the RRU is RUU_Schubert_HTC_Europe_1.69.401.01_Radio_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50.10_Signed_SCHUBERT_RELEASE(2)

Do you know what this tool does to the computer?
I would try it but honestly don't want to do it before I have info what it does to my PC settings. Unfortunately MS doesn't share with this knowledge.
Hi everyone!
I have a big problem with my new hd7.
Just bought, and wired for the very first charging but the phone continues to restart by itself.
Tried a hard reset, to set it in download mode and fix with Windows Phone Support Tool but still nothing to do. Even tried to install a new ROM but at the first start it continues with its loop.
In download mode zune tried to upgrade to nodo but it shows the error C101002E.
Don't know what else to do. Any idea? It's new!

[Q] Qtek 2020i doesn't want to turn on

So.. I found a update for my Qtek 2020i and while it was updating it disconnected from the PC. It turned on and I checked the version to see the update didn't work so I wanted to try again. I restarted it and it didn't want to turn on anymore. I tried the soft reset and hard reset it didn't work. It's just being numb without any signs of working. Any idea what might had happened? Also any idea where I can find a cd for it? Like the main cd which comes with it cuz I assume it has the update manager which works when something like this happens.
