hi ppl!
i got my PDA about 3 weeks ago and, except for a few issues, i'm absolutely happy with it....
it's a rugged FujitsuSiemens N560 - and it's got a 1.3 MP camera...
problem is, i don't have any software to take pictures with
in fact, i don't even know if the camera works yet... i read something about integrated camera software in windows mobile, but i'm guessing that's only true for the smartphone edition, since i don't have anything like that on my PDA...
i'm currently using the english Pups.777_Team WM6 rom v0.0.4, but i didn't see any camera software on my original WM5 rom either...
also, none of the camera related applications i've tried have been able to get anything at all from my camera, although i did install a camera driver which came with the pda on the SD card.
CoolCamera seems to be for phone edition only, since it won't start on my pda...
i'm also getting a "Unidentified USB device" prompt at EVERY boot / soft reset, doesn't matter if the cradle's connected or not... no idea what this could be... all of the pda's components are accounted for and working fine, except for the camera (which i already installed drivers for)...
and before i installed the camera driver i got the unidientified device prompt not only at every boot, but also at every wake up from suspend mode... which gives me the impression that the driver is working fine.
and... that's about it ;D
any suggestions? thanks for reading this

hi, I have the same FSC EDA with the same problems.
Mine is now running the standard Wm5 ,after doing a Hard reset, as advised in the manual to restore to original factory condition I lost all the camera functions and Redhalo software, included the camera driver,drawing/painting and animation software. I guess they forgot to mention that!
I also get the Unknown usb device, which I think is the missing camera driver. When I got mine it didn't come with an SD card or other software , just an Acivesync cd.
I thought that all the software was in ROM but it looks like only the basic WM5 was and a hard reset wiped the rest!
I can't find any software on the web to restore it as yet.
If you have a original SD card I would be grateful for a copy.
Hello Tino
I have had the same unrecognised USB problem. Drove me mad. I have fixed it using an original sd card I managed to track down. I did a factory reset them tapped on the file autorun.bat located in the folder 2577 on the sd card. Doing this restored RedHalo, removed the USB error & the camera works fine. There is also some backup sofware on the card. If you like I can zip the files and email them to you.
Sorry to bump an old thread - but I have exactly the same issue, annoying!
Would love an original copy of the SD

Hi Smiggers, any chance you could email me a copy of these sd card files to get my camera up and running on my N560? Would be very much appreciated if you can help.
My email is [email protected].

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.

i meant active sync, it says it cant detect my device. Is there anyway from MTTY, i cant retrieve my contacts?
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.

Hello everyone,
I've got my prophet G4 for may be 3 years, but I just stepped into Custom ROM world for a few days. I've done the hardSPL and upgrade my phone to WM6, using the first version of this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374155 Thanks to varanusvincent for creating this ROM
I've got some problems with my prophet and finding ways to fix them:
1. My camera, If I set it to save pictures to main memory, everything is fine. But when I set it to save pictures to my SD AData 1gb, when I take pics, the camera shows the previews as normal, but if I press power button to set my phone to sleep mode, and turn on again, the picture in the preview is gone and isn't saved into my SD. I lost heaps of good fotos just because it is my habit to turn off the phone by using that power button.
I tried to use the HTC Camera 4.11 (ELF/HTC Touch) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314798 Seems like the problems has been fixed but I just dont want to use that software due to some battery problems...
Changing another SD card can't help.
So is there any way to solve my camera issue ?
*Note: It's not a ROM's bug coz I tried with 4 difference ROMs but the problem still there.
2. The Vista ROM I'm using may be has a bug in the SMS system. It doesn't get and save the SMS centre mobile number. I always have to do it handly whenever I restart my phone. And seems like the Wifi has some connection problems, too. It hardly connects to my network and sometime suddenly disconnect its self.
I'm using Vodafone New Zealand.
By the way, any suggestion for the best Vista touched ROM ?
Thanks for any helps guys
Hard reset helps alot after flashing
Have you hard reset the device after flashing the ROm?
I tried to reset by pressing the reset whole.
I'm not sure is it hard reset or soft reset. Can you tell me a bit more specific
Thanks
Hey all I have a problem dunno if this is the right place to post but could not really find anything closer.
First I have no access to a PC and I need a copy of the original registry for the t mobile wing. I've been playing aroud with the reg to get access to the Ext rom well I have deleted it and a reboot doesn't bring it back, don't want to try a hard reset because of that. also messed with the t mo data settings I deleted them actually I delete everything that has to do with t mo. and barely got the wifi working or I would'nt be here now!
hoping putting the settings back will return the ext romto normal or my regedits are done till I get a laptop. and dunno if i have to hard reset.
I will attach the reg settings and screenshots if anyone is interested I am able to load up to about 1meg on the ext rom then it gives either access denied or write protected. and it vanishes on reboot as far as i've read this is the closest to actually being able to alter the ext rom on a cid locked and original rom....without a pc, thanx in advance.
T Mobiile wing sim locked[ack] and cid locked.
"My dad always said, "Don't fix what ain't broke", So I broke it!
EDIT:
Ok after 3 hard resets (first 2 failed) it re-installed. Re-edited the reg with the autoload and profile to show the ext rom and it won't show it reg values are still what I changed them to. Any ideas, My phone is punishing me?
Ok did another hard reset and the ext rom is gone, didn't have to reset in first 3 secs to stop installs. can any1 explain to me how I erased a RAM Drive that isn't supposed to be changable without a PC and even better how to bring it back 4 my purposes I was close before I think it has to do with the virtual drive setup in the reg any1 can help with this?
Hi,
Posting this as I cant find anything online and not sure if anyone else has experienced this. The newest update (seemed like a minor one) has made my phone unusable after the restart.
It boots into OS same as always but displays blank screen after boot (can't tell if it's on cos oled). I know it's in OS because holding power button brings up the native android power menu. It as keeps constantly micro vibrating. Like when you're typing really fast or something. Not sure what the issue is, and haven't yet tried resetting to factory, but fixing isn't gonna be fun since OEM unlocking is disabled.
I'm trying to get some files off it somehow before I try anything else but can't seem to find a way in.
The ver. According to the power menu is: RKQ1.211119.001
You need to have OEM unlocking enabled in dev options for that tho don't you?
I turned it off a week or 2 ago as I thought I probably won't be unlocking the phone anytime soon, if at all.
Option only seems to be msmtool.
Have you tried going into recovery (I assume you are on stock recovery) and reset system settings? I believe this does a factory reset without wiping data. You might want to fact check that as I have seen the option but never used it, there is another option in there called erase everything which I would assume is a complete factory restore (as in new out of the box).
Yeah checked there, theres only one option unfortunately, seen vids where they have multiple but their ver is 2.0 whereas mine says 1.2. I intend to try that first but wanted to see if there was a way around incase that was a full reset + wipe internal storage. Tbf now that mention it, it's still possible internal storage is unaffected, which is what I want.

let us know how you go.
So, issue fixed with factory reset thru stock recovery (Wipe Data -> Wipe User Data), however has come with the downside of all data including internal storage being wiped. Everything seems to be working tho, and works after restart.
Well, that sucks. Hope you didn't lose anything you couldn't get back.
