hi all.
I am in serious trouble and i need help. i realized i did not have outlook, thus my contacts are all gone.
I had tried to update my software earlier by installing some .cab file. It was a file for my HTC home. The installation was 'successful', however after i did a reset ( they prompt me to ) i could not boot up my phone. It get hanged once it got to my wallpaper, and i cant tap or press anything. The htc home screen also does not come out.
=(
any kind souls?
So something is hanging right after windows boots... did you try to install HTC Home to a storage card? Try booting with the storage card out.
thanks for the prompt reply. i tried, however it never seems to work. I am using a HTC TYTN ii. running on windows 6.1
I did install it on a storage card. i tried means like switching on without memory card, sim card and did a million resets, but it doesnt seem to work.. =(
Actually i install the HTC Home was because the message counter on the HTC Home got screwed up. it showed 1 unread no although i had all messages read. but anyway, for now, tht's not my main concern.. =(
thanks all in advance ..
I guess I do not understand all of your issues besides the freezing at boot.
A hard reset should be an option, if you're ok with that... and then for the future, use sprite and pim backup to make sure you don't lose too much data.
Try searching the forum for threads like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320689
What caused you to lose your contacts?
my contacts are all saved in the phone, and it wasnt back up cause i am not using microsoft outlook.. and lets say i want to do a hard reset, how to do it?
and how do i do a soft reset with my phone.
Is there anyway that i can actually do a SAFE mode boot up? but my phone keeps getting hanged at start up. i dunno if its because it cant bring up a pin enter mode where I need to key in my pin each time i boot up.
0) What version of ROM were you using?
HTC TYTN ii
1) Applications installed when it happened
HTC HOME (old version ) i d/led and used HTC Diamond home, then it got screwed up cause the unread messages kept showing 1, although all messages were read. i thus wanted to reinstall the HTC home.
2) Radio ROM version (2.19.21, 2.47.21, etc...)
NONE
3) Device model (dopod 818, imate etc...)
HTC TYTN II
4) Device version (G3 or G4)
Windows 6.1?
5) How long it was since last hard reset (1 day,6 hours, etc..)
I never did a hard reset. how do i do it
6) Approx how many soft resets you already made (1-5, 5-10 10-15, etc...)
Soft refers to poking the reset button, would be more than 20 times after this issue
7) Approx how many shutdowns you already made (holding power button for 4+ seconds)
more than 10 times.
8) any other significant info you think will help:
My contacts are not saved syn with my com as i do not have windows outlook.
9) Do you have the HTC Homeplug today plugin enabled?
10) have you populated your PIM apps via pimbackup or via activesync?
11) Do you have the "HTC_default" today theme enabled?
yes.
for now, i cant boot up. the screen will hang at my wallpaper. i cant seem to press or click anything after that. My pin start up prompt does not apear too. please help =(
depressed ivy.
Sorry, but I'm pretty sure you need an app to use safe mode. You might need to loose your contacts, but don't give up... research and you might find an answer.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=The%20Safe%20Mode%20Bible
And if you've already tried booting without a sim and storage card, you might need to hard reset, which is easy enough after reading the wiki.
e.g. press both softkeys while resetting, or you could even flash a new rom via sd card by naming the .nbh file KAISIMG.nbh and putting it on your storage card root directory.
Read the wiki before you make any decisions and good luck, good news is your phone sounds like it's fine, just install a safe mode program next time.
Hi. I did research like wht you adviced, i managed to log into bootloader mode, i downloaded MTTY program and got my phone to the USB mode. I like to ask the following:
1) can i retrieve and save my contacts as i saved them all in my phone and none in my sim card?
2) Wht can i do next as I'm badly stuck at the HTC home page with only my wallpaper, i cant click on any buttons.
Thanks in advance to all.
I really hope that some GURUs here are able to help solve my terrible situation and i would really appreciate it. My contacts are all save in the phone and i need some help in retrieving it.
Thanks all.

At what exactly point does it freeze?
What is your radio version, it should appear after you turn on the device in red letters on the bottom right.
What is your SPL Version, you should be able to see it from the bootloader?

Hello friend. When I suggested research, I meant things like this...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2732337
I found this thread by clicking search in the top right to use google, and typed "save contacts" which if you've gone into MTTY research (be careful by the way) then you might be able to backup your data.
MY SPL : 3.29.0000
MY radio: 1.65.16.25
When i boot up, i suppose to have some password protect, to enter my pin before there is reception and stuff. For now, I can only see my wallpaper, the start button, contacts and calander buttons.However i cant touch on anything, it just simply hangs there.
SIM card and memory card are off. I tried SYNC, but it says cannot detect device.

By "SYNC" you mean active sync? Try an Actice sync re-install, maybe?
Sounds like this protect stuff is beggared.

All this actually happen after i installed .cab file the other day, and the installation was fine and i was prompt to restart. It hanged after that till date. sigh =( I'm desperate.
GURUs,
I cant get my device to go any further than hanging right at the wallpaper of HTC Home, the usb doenst recognize my device, so i cant enter or do any thing.
I just wish to retrieve my contacts now, and do a hard reset on my phone.
Thanks.
If you never saved your contacts from and to your sim card without any kind of backup from outlook or pim, etc. you might be ****e out of luck. Gone from a ****ty samsung to a equally ****ty razr, hermes, and now kaiser with the same sim...Always copy your contacts to the sim; or at least a Backup folder on your desktop or lap. flashing erases the main memory, which of course includes contacts. That's why we have a program called sim manager, to backup contacts everytime we erase our systems. Hope you find a workaround though, as a former Iphone owner, reinputting your contacts is a giant *****
sigh.. does tht means i'm so dead now? I did ever did a PPCPimBackup, but its stored in the phone memory too? any sort of help you can assist?

Possibly, I've tried to get hold of someone who might know, but it's looking grim.
Storage Card backups and Active Sync are the best way to backup.

Should a valid simcard be inserted in the device ?
no, you dont have to insert a valid simcard...just tried it out
It did not work on my phone, but I think that this device is definitely dead...
I doesn't matter too much as I bought it to for pieces...
vox hangs at wm6 screen. soft reset fails. extract contacts before hard reset?
yes, i would love to get my htc vox back by hard resetting (flashing the rom), but my contacts are not backed up (yes groan, but ...* see bottom if you care/have time...) So, i want to transfer the contacts data out of my vox, without wm6. go on, mission impossible was a great flick, we all want to be tom cruise (except I'm not sure about the scientology stuff..)!
1. is it possible to go to the (green blue red screen) SPL stage (i.e. hold camera button press power on) and then via the laptop send commands to the vox to copy data from the built-in memory to the storage card?
my parallel is that a PC has a simple operating system 'ms-dos' which can be used to obtain data and get the computer back online if windows fails. This requires programming in the lowest level (os) language of vox, I understand it uses an ARM chip (http://focus.ti.com/general/docs/wt...lateId=6123&navigationId=12000&contentId=4679). ARM/HTC websites refer to having 'windows embedded CE 6.0' but since my vox's bootloader does not finish loading wm6, I guess wm6 never gets fully installed into RAM so is not usable in this case. so...
2. has anyone tried this before? Anyone know a link to the command list for the vox's operating system? Any tips/corrections to the above?
Other relevant points, required for this solution to work:
3. what is the name (and do i also need the memory location?) of the data file containing the outlook contacts data?
4. does the HTC RUU ROM update actually install all the standard issue software, as well as WM6, including the ability to save Outlook contacts? link to software pack?
Thanks in advance..
(* - I dont have outlook on my laptop and was not aware until after the event that a work-around exists, yes my vox froze once before and when i checked that work-around was not developed.. (last time a soft reset removing the SIM and storage card did the trick. no such luck this time.))
dear all,
i got this mobile a couple of weeks ago and try to get some useful soctware and soome doubt still confuse
. can someone tell how to activate front camera? i cannot find in camera settings.
. can somewhere find rom updatable?
. can someone use myphone {mocirosoft} successful to synchonized your data to your intenet mail account, such as hotmail? i try it many time {>100tims} but still not working...
thanks in advance
you can test front camera. Just enter *#0*# and you see LCD TEST MENU when you press 8 (VT camera test) you will see yourself on the screen(full screen view.):
Front camera can be used when 3G connection is available. if you see 3G writing on the screen then you can make video calling by clicking menu for a contact.
Another way for front camera is VZO Mobile Video Phone program.

Hi.
Anybody knows how to put B7320 into bootloader mode? Thank you in advance.
For normal B7320, here are the procedure
Turn off the phone
Press and hold 'J' button while connecting to the PC through USB. Keep hold the 'J' button.
The phone should enter bootloader screen
But if your phone is updated with AT&T Win 6.5 ROM for SGH i-637 Jack, I'm afraid above steps won't work because of the updater messed up with boot area

When you are start your phone, you can see anything on your phone display!!!
like SAMSUNG name logo !!!
if you can't see anything.. like a black screen... you must need to replace them main board..... if you are under the warranty, you are lucky.... if you are not under warranty... need more credit for changing this main board!!!!
No any option for making your device well for you, if your display is black
I am about to burst out in tears
Oh yeah, Hi, my name is sitnet, I just registered.
Today I bought a HKC Mova 305 windows mobile 6.0 phone. You won't know the make, it is a local service provider make. It doesn't have any warranty, it was on promotion for very VERY cheap.
This is the problem:
When I turn it on it just shows the logo of the service provider (a splash screen) and then the screen goes dark (logo still visible in sunlight), but it doesn't do anything from there on. So then I did a soft reset (with a small reset button) but still the same thing.
Then I started experimenting, the phone has a load of buttons, there is a wheel on the side with a button below it and then also a camera button. I held in the button under the wheel and the power button together then this menu came up:
Code:
PB Update!
Connecting ...
INFO: Trying to initialize USB RNDIS...
HostMiniInit:: !!
Rndis:: initialization: with addr-0
Rndis:: initialization!
Rndis:: PDDInit success!
Rndis:: Get MAC address 4500,5634,9A78
Rndis:: initialization: Fail!
ERROR: Failed to initialize Bulverde Rndis USB Ethernet controller.
ERROR: Failed to detect and initialize Ethernet controller
Then I removed and reinsterted the battery and pressed the wheel button in while pressing the power button and got this menu:
Code:
------------------------
Xloader Version:
Eboot Version: Eboot-1.02-02
1(W): Update with SD Card
2(T): Boot from IPL KITL disable
3(B): Doc Update
4(L): Format Partition
5(R): Test Memory
-----from oallog--------
Enter your selection:
The buttons associated with the selections do not do anything though, BUT I experimented that I can select any of the options (except nr.4) with other buttons.
Ok and lastly when I press the Camera button and the power button together it says "KITL enable" and then only shows the splash screen again but forever.
This is my very first Windows mobile phone. I have no clue what to do
I have read that there is a way to reinstall the rom or something. I will do anything to get the phone working.
Here is the phone: ucables.com/ref/TELKOM-MOVA-305-PDA-P-R105795
Please, please I beg of anyone to help me, I will be so grateful it can't even be described in words.
EDIT: OK I found out that when pressing the "red dot" button (it changes between numbers and letter while typing) and the power on button it says waiting for USB connection and then I plugged it in and it installed as a "pocketPC" and now it says "Updating" on the screen. I'm just going to wait...
THANX so much guys!!!
Did you manage to get the phone booting. I`ve got the same problem with a phone I got today.
Kind regards
Got a link that might help. Haven`t tried it yet: expansys.jp/ft.aspx?k=119230
PS: Another name for the mova 305 is UBiQUiO 503G
ive got the same problem with mine...let me know if there's any changes
I found a link that will help. My phone is loading into windows mobile now. Not hanging on splash screen.
Good luck
expansys.jp/ft.aspx?k=119230
just add www to the front of the url. Wasnt able to post full link.
Thanx for the reply, i tried that method and could actually install that rom on the phone through the "super rom update" utility.However, when the phone restarts it still does the same thing...It just shows the telkom logo for 4 seconds then the phone switch off.
Any suggestions?
Thanx
So, somebody is trying to sell this phone again! And with the same useless initial rom in it as I can see!
The same support site has a new version of the rom that is 3.05 instead of the 2.2 here
Originally they were selling this phone with an extra special cable just for flashing the radio part of the rom but as far as I know it is no longer offered.
I think there is someone from China that posted on the same site that he's flashed WM6.5 on it but the guy disappeared! See here.
There is also more info on the Modaco website and an even a new rom! You will need to flash the 3.05 first then the 3.10 at Modaco. It is new but it is only a 6.0 rom but it addresses issues that people had with the phone. The Modaco website has more info about this phone.
Hi,
I've receieved a HTC Mozart as an evaluation device from Telstra for my company, but when I boot it up it does not seem to go through the normal setup process.
It boots and when it is pre-populated with some data such as contacts, text messages, emails, calander entries, etc. I have hard reset the device and it comes back to the same place after it goes through the loading process, at no stage am i prompted to enter my windows live ID or anything like that and there is already an example account present.
Is this some sort of demonstration mode the phone is set in???
Thanks,
Ryan
i would suggest contacting telstra? maybe they sent you a demo model by mistake? though to be honest if this was that case that would be one of the most funniest things they could do to a customer. it was just halloween? didn't you give them a treat?

Everytime i unlock the phone it get a text message that tells me welcome to windows phone 7 and the screen saver is a demo that says 'touch to begin' and I am unable to use my windows live login as there is an account called [email protected] that cannot be deleted and cannot be changed.
Try flashing the std ruu package from the mozart forum? Might have a demo rom on it.
Are you able to hard reset it?
If not then contact Telstra and they should replace it.
How do I install the generic RUU on the mozart? I have been a blackberry user previously.
Mate, dont bother, take it back to telstra.

It Would seem not all people actually read the questions in these forums very well - having acquired one of these STORE DEMO ROM Mozarts as well I know exactly what you are saying - Mate - Check my post Under the Telstra ROM in the ROM section of Mozart Development Forum. Should be around post 3.
This is how I reflashed/unlocked from store demo mode and now have a fully functioning HTC Mozart.
Should help you out.
I believe i purchased a store demo HTC Surround, as it does exactly what you describe your mozart doing. I hope soon there will be a way to flash the rom because my battery dies from all the bogus updates and the screensaver or splash screen. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, anyone here please plz plz plz help us out with this annoying thing ever. ....
GREAT GREATLY Appreciate ... it makes me piss off !!!
It's amazing how many of these demo phones make it out in the real world.
