HTC MINI HD Android -> WM - General Questions and Answers

Hi All .
About 18 months ago I successfully reflashed my daughters (VF Spain) HTC MINI HD from WM 6.4 (I think ?) to Photonic's Android 2.3.7 .
My son now has the phone and he wants to reload WMback on to it . I've downloaded a few WM ROMs (RUU_Signed_0C0Ano_sense_clean.nbh) from this site , but they all seem to require that the phone already has WM on it and that I establish an active synch connection with the phone before hand in order to perform the upgrade .
I'd appreciate any help that you could give me to remove android and reinstall WM .
Thanks in advance .

Hi again .
I've managed to find the WM backup (.img) that we made before changing to Android . Can some kind person please tell me how to go about restoring this image from the RECOVERY menu ? I've tried a few things but now all I'm getting are "MD5 mismatch" errors .
Thanks .
Sammy

I was missing a file called "nandroid.md5" in my backup folder . I created an empty file and my phone is recovering as we speak .

Help Me Please Upgrading :(

I'm trying to upgrade my I-mate Jamin (G3)
I followed this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310452
The first 5 steps went successful, and I've tried installing multiple ROM's like :
Transformer 1.1
Touch VII
and both ROMs are giving me same error on command prompt ( although in the end it comes as successful upgrade ) and this popup of "SUCCESS" comes on my device while upgrading.
the error i'm getting on command prompt i'm getting is :
Writing the new CrossBow OS Rom ...
Copying C:\Downlo~2\itsutils.dll to WEC:\windows\ItsUtils.dll
could not update Itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is inuse ?
try restarting your device, or your active sync.
then that Congratulations msg comes up ~~
I hard reset my device and I'm still on Windows mobile 5
I'm a NOB please help .. tell me what I'm doing wrong ??
Thx.
-Download again all the .zip's from web to the desktop and extract all to desktop again
-disable antivirus and firewall
-run pvtemp.exe(choosse between g3 and g4 depending of your mobile model)
then run the update.bat
it works with me
I think i'm a bigger noob
i didnt unlock CID anyways figured it out .. just installed Transformers 1.1

HTC DataBackup 3.10 dbk file cannot be restored

Hi all, long time since my last visit.
The problem for me is I cannot get my pim from a backup .dbk made with HTC DataBackup 3.10
This is complicated because I MUST get a lost contact. I made this dbk file inside an imate JASJAR the past year, this pda was of my past work, and since I'm not working anymore there, I left the laptop and PDA given to me.
Because of this, I cannot obtain from outlook sync, when I get fired I just made that backup in 3 minutes (it finished I'm sure) on my own SD card. Then I did a Hard reset to the PDA and a factory system restore to the laptop (on that time I don't had my own pc).
I hope there is some program to restore the contacts, I tried using the WM6 emulator without success using the restore function in HTC DataBackup, actually I don't have a PDA.
I opened the dbk file in Hex Editor and I can read some strings in ASCII, but most of the content seems like coded or encripted (compressed???) so I cannot get the information on this way.
Please, some one help me, it is really urgent for me to get this contact!!!
Thanks in the advance, and sorry for the bad english.
Regards...

[Q] windows mobile

hey,
well obviously I'm a newbie here and i needed to know if anyone can help me find a download link for windows mobile?it crashed on my Siemens pocketloox and i lost my cd so i've been looking everywhere for a downloadable version but i can't find one.
thanks in advance.
Dude a pda is not like a pc where you can freely install any OS you wish... The official Windows Mobile versions must be provided by your manufacturer (there isn't a Universal version per say... if you try to flash the version of another device you'll kill your phone). You may try to check Fujitsu-Siemens homepage for an official ROM update or contact them if needed
Over the net you may find ROMs for pda but bare in mind these are device specific and your device usually needs to be hacked in order to install unofficial versions (your device seems to be quite old... I don't believe you'll find any rom here since xda is almost HTC land).
Also what do you mean by crashed? Did you brick it (OS won't start... all you get is a black screen)? Have you tried removing/reinserting the battery and restarting?
the start menu suddenly has no icons,and neither the camera shortcut button nor the notes one are working.basically,it just opens and almost everything is disabled.
The easy solution is...
Just hardreset the device (seach here) and it will reset your device to factory defaults (it's like a format+reinstall)... Problem solved.
Just make sure you backup your data (photos, contacts, messages...) before because everything will be erased
thanks a lot man it worked.
