HI Friends
Sometimes it happens that all internal memory is full and after we do a reset , magician nearly hangs either on the boot screen or while trying to show the Today's Links on the main screen
Is there any way to boot the magician with the least resources like safe mode in windows. As i dont have the recent backup of my magician, so i dont want to hard reset the magician which will work but on loss of data.
I tried using active sync, windows 2003 doesnt come to a point where, active sync start.. if it would hv worked i could hv deleted the big file which is creating the booting issue.
Pls help...
I tried
I Dnt know if this helps...
Use file explorer and go into windows directory of your device.
There should be a program called : safemode
Load that program and the Pocketpc will retart, while restarting a small window will be displayed, and press the middle button while this is up to load in safemode and not load any plugins you might have installed.
Hope this is enough.
I have an 8525 running WM6 AT&T version. It is not recognized by my PC.
It has been running fine until the Battery died 2 weeks ago. After that I can not sync. My PC does not recognize the device. The USB Cable and connection works since my portable USB hard drive works on the same connection. I have re-formatted my PC and installed Activesync 4.5. Active Sync 4.5 is the version I have been using for over 3 months. The phone has been Hard Reset. The phone works with the exception of the Sync.
Any ideas?
flash it with another rom, that isnt an official update for your device, i.e. the o2 rom update,then see if it syncs? if that works flash it back with the at&t rom. I had this problem with my hermes(mda vario II) when i flashed the at&t wm6 rom but as soon as i flashed with the o2 rom it synced fine, even with vista
Thanks for the reply. But my PC does not sync at all and I do not have access to another one at the moment so I can't flash another ROM.
It was working up to a week ago.
if u haven't already, then make sure 'enable advanced network functionality' is unchecked on device.
Happened to me too for a minute....
I d\l ActiveSync 4.5 again and reinstalled... all was good.
Try that before smashing computer...
Guess something went wrong... 4.5 worked fine then I decided to flash the radio again. Frustrated me to no end. But reinstalling AS4.5 worked for me.
Update:
I tried reinstalling ActiveSync. Did not fix the problem.
Funny thing is that the USB plug will charge the unit but I can't Sync. It won't recognize the device. Another funny thing is that the USB on the phone does not turn on. Does look like a hardware issue then?
Troubleshooting 101... I'd try a different cable first. Then a different USB port (back, front) of the PC. Then I'd try a different computer. I'd be relatively surprised if it turns out to be the phone - but... Possible, I suppose.
right click on my computer and click manage, then click on the device manager on the top left window and a list of devices will appear on the right.
If your ppc is connected unplug it, wait a few seconds then plug it back in and you will see the screen of your devices change. If you get a unknown device or device with and exclamation mark in a yellow triangle then right click on it and click remove wait for the confirmation that it has been removed then unplug the device and wait a few seconds then plug it back it again.
If all that is useless in that it doesnt even show as an unknown device then check the universal serial bus controllers section by clicking on the + to the right of it to expand the tree and check in there if there are any unknown devices and remove them.
If after all that it still fails right click on the ruu exe file and click extract to ruu_filename and extract the contents of the file to the said folder then open the folder and inside is another exe file call ruu_inside.exe right click on that and extract that the same way by right clicking on it and click extract to ruu_filename then open that folder and rename the RUU_signed.nbh to hermimg.nbh get a blank sd card format it in the device so nothing is on it then copy the hermimg.nbh to the card. Then enter bootloader by pressing top left side button top right side button and camera button at the same time as you reset with the stylus and it will update from the sd card

I tried this, reinstalled activesync, then it FINALLY WORKED. Thanks!
My activesync has been broken for a couple of days. I am pretty OCD so I have been on a warpath to fix it.
On a positive note, I couldn't get the new ATT rom to load, so I did everything else - I now have SIM and CID unlocked phone with vp3G's rom and I am liking it very well!
i had the same problem..i just un-installed activesync 4.5 and re-installed it. Then installed the new AT&T rom (WM6). i had the schaps verison on their before but it was giving me hell and after i replaced it with the AT&T version all is well...
OMG!!! I was freaking over this. New ATT WM6 ROM installed, was a bear but got it synched to AS 4.5 at work..but could not explore. Came home, and nothing I tried would even let me sync on my home pc! Note, this PC has been syncing WM Devices for over 5 years now, I am no newb to them!
I was even getting the "USB does not recognize this device" error! WTF!!!!!!!
After uninstalling and re-installing AS many times, cleaning the registry, doing a Hard Rest to the device...all to no avail....until I searched in here:
Quote:

That fixed it!!!! Why? I have no f'ing idea. And curse ATT/MS for having it enabled!
First try and I was able to connect , synch, explore....viola!!!
You should also mentioned where to find it:
You can find that Fubar setting by going to Settings/Connections/USB to PC
First of all, I had some minor problems getting Activesync to recognize my 8525. (XP, Net 2.0). After a couple of driver updates or whatever, it finally worked!
I tried flashing to a different ROM but had problems during the HardSPL procedure. I stopped it, but THEN had some problems trying to connect my 8525 to the PC!! (Activesync again, ugh!) I uninstalled & re-installed Activesync like 3 times, and FINALLY got it to work again!
Now I have problems installing .CAB files to my 8525. I keep on getting the warning:
"The program is from an unknown publisher. You should install it only...."
I press "YES" and it comes as "unsuccessful".
I press "NO" and I get the "... program cannot be installed because it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate".
Besides having installation problems, I also noticed that Activesync keeps on disappearing/uninstalling from my PC. I have to install Activesync 4.5 every time I turn on the PC.
Can some one tell me what's going on? What should I do? Should I do a "HARD RESET"? (I have done a SOFT RESET but to no avail). I would appreciate some help. Thanks!
I found out that I shouldn't do a HARD RESET because it will erase the "unlocked" feature in my phone. (I bought the phone unlocked).
I have researched the wiki, and some threads, and ACTUALLY someone else had this problem, way back in 2006. (The .CAB problem). But no one responded.
I also had to uninstall a program I had previously installed in my 8525 due to the fact that it stopped responding. It just wouldn't work anymore. I got the same "unsigned certificate" message.
I guess I'm going to RE-INSTALL Activesync ALLL over again. Maybe it will help it or something...
(This is literally going to be like the 5th time I install Activesync. And I just got the 8525).
IF ANYBODY CAN HELP ME WITH THE .CAB PROBLEM I WOULD APPRECIATE IT.
(I'm running WM6 Pro, AT&T)
freakin piece of crap!
its STILL NOT WORKING!!!!!
It USED TO WORK! I used to be able to install .CAB files. I have only installed 2 .cab files into internal memory (NO external. dont have one yet). I installed Opera Mini, and Wifi Radar. I also installed a couple of themes. I also installed animated themes but deleted them since they wouldn't work. (I think they required some other stuff). I also deleted all the themes except for one.
THEN one day, i tried doing that HardSPL-V7, and I got to the last step but quit since I got an error telling me that if I continue the (usb?)device could stop working.
Another time I tried installing SPB Finance 2.8 .CAB and that's when I noticed it would no longer install .CAB files. (It also won't install directly using .exe)
I researched Google and the forums, and found out a guy that had the same problem (no one responded).
Today I noticed that Pocket Wifi Radar wouldn't run. It said something about the certificates. I uninstalled it, tried to install it again, but it wasn't successful.
So far this has been the history of my 8525. Could it be because the "certificates" were installed in the ORIGINAL computer profile? Since I have installed Activesync many times, I noticed every time it creates a new profile. For example, the first time it was called "Windows PC". Then it was called "Windows PC2". Just right now I installed it again, and it was going to be named "Windows PC3", but I changed the name to something else, and of course it still didn't work.
Could ANYBODY give me some tips as to what I should do? Thank you.
go to settings>connections>usb to pc. uncheck "enable advanced network functionality".
if it syncs a few times with no problems run unlocker tool found in upgrades section. then hard spl then if you feel game enough upgrade os with one of your choice.
Hope this helps... cheers
holy cow, relax guy. you are not the only person to ever get the not digitally signed message.

as for the hardspl problem, i responded to that thread you created, didnt you see?
Ok, I tried what you mentioned ultra, and I got this message upon connecting the 8525 to the PC. (BTW, this is the SAME message that appeared when I was attempting to install HardSPL-V7),
HTC USB Sync
has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatability with
Windows XP.
Continuing your installation of this software may impair or disabilize the correct operation of your system either immediately or in the future. Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation now and contact the hardware vendor for software that has passed Windows Logo testing.
I pressed "Continue" and it installed HTC USB Sync. But then I got the a message telling me "Activesync 4.5 or greater needs to be installed" (even though it IS installed). I ran through the setup again, and it would only let me "repair" or "uninstall". I pressed "repair". Afterwards it asked me to "restart". I did. Then upon loading back up, I connected the 8525 to the PC again, and I got the SAME message again (the one about it not passing Windows Logo). This time I pressed "STOP" and then I got the message about HTC USB Sync not being installed in the computer.
I have been fed up with the problems the 8525 has been giving me. My Clie UX was so much easier to manage. Quick question, I am REALLY leaning on doing a HARD RESET, but I think/kinda know, that if I do, it will ERASE WM6 correct? And go back to WM5?
Oh and yes xtreme, I have searched this on the search bar. And yes, I know you replied back, but you were referring to the Hard SPL. I am having problems w/ installing .CAB files.

dont hit stop dude, u're suppose to hit continue. hitting stop prevents the drivers from being installed and then the RUU wont run
Well I did press "Continue" the first time and I did not see any improvements. I just saw that it installed "HTC USB Sync".
I AM able to successfully install Activesync, I just can't get .CAB files to install.
Could it be because I pressed "STOP" whenever I tried using HardSPL? Should I try and run HardSPL AGAIN and this time pressing "Continue"?
Oh, and are you sure I'm supposed to press "Continue"? After all, I do get that error about Microsoft strongly recommends that you stop this installation. It sounds fishy pressing "Continue".
I just installed Activesync ALLLL over again, but this time in the D:/ drive... still the same .CAB problem.
Oh, and I no longer have the problem where Activesync would uninstall by itself. I noticed it fixed itself yesterday.
BUT I'm still having problems installing .CAB files.
1). hard reset will reset it back to factory its true BUT, and like j-lo's this is a big but, it will re install the last os on the phone (wm6) NOT the stock rom...
2). are you installing the .cab files from the computer or copying them to the memory card and installing from there?
If you install the .cab from the memory card it seems to work fairly well (at least from my experience). if its in a .exe format then it runs from the computer and requires activesync. if you have the .cab file then my suggestion is try to run it from the memory card.. Cheers..
Try installing the SDK certificates and see if that helps
Finally Works!!!!! Hard Reset!
OK, so I've been up for about 3hrs straight trying to figure this out. Reinstalled/uninstalled activesync... tried installing HardSPL again (twice)... didn't work. So I was like, you know what...f* it. I'm going to do a Hard Reset. I'm just gonna try it.
IT WORKED!!!! AND IT STILL STAYED IN WM6!!!! And I think it's still unlocked (although I've read from threads that a HR will disable the unlocked feature).
I AM GLAAAAD THAT I CAN INSTALL FILES NOW!!!! YAY!! (hehe). THANKS TO THOSE WHO TRIED TO HELP!!! SERIOUSLY. It feels really bad when no one tries to help you, even though you don't have a CLUE as to what to do.
** I solemnly swear I will no longer try to use HardSPL or try flashing to a different ROM*. I will use the ROM that came with the phone, and be glad everything is WORKING **
*= at least for until a couple of more months
AND for those who are having this problem (and it's a lot of ppl, based from search results), try a HARD RESET. It helped me anyways.
"and like j-lo's this is a big but"
Glad it worked but I wouldnt allow one bad experiance to turn you off flashing... If I were you I'd still flash hard spl ( in case you find something that you really like). It DOES make it easier to fix "bricks". But just to satisfy your curiosity, go to bootloader and see if it says that you have 2.10 or 2.30 SPL. Also if you want to try flashing, try the sd card method. Its a heap safer (from my experience) than flashing by activesync. Check the wiki for how to do it.
PS. you dot need to reformat the sd card. if you have all the stuff you want on it then just copy the .nbh to the root of the sd card and rename to "hermimg.nbh", it will load as soon as the hermes is put into bootloader and you wont have to re-install anything. Works every time for me and I've done it about 30 or 40 times...Cheers......

i think his problem is that he can't install .cab files period. he's having the same problem as me. my first phone had that prob, i updated .net 2.0 and it was fine. got my second phone here, update .net to 3.5, but still can't transfer/execute ANY cab files to my phone. the pc just doesn't recognize the phone period. i can't copy/paste, can't push anything through onto my phone. it's crazy. so what else can we do? i'd like to think i'm pretty tech savvy, but this isn't cool LOL
Hello,
now I cannot execute a 'not signed' .exe from my diamond, because of the 'not signed' error message.
I tried to see the first steps of the android port on the diamond touch. I had to remove the battery to stop the application. Since, it's not possible for me to execute any non-signed application (total commander, putty, ...).
Did you find a clean solution? I prefer not to go through the steps of reinstalling a new firmware (windows isn't accessible on my computer & I have a rather old backup of my diamond's files).
I allready have a hardspl, because my orginal ROM is from SFR (french operator)... and I prefer the original HTC version which is more beautiful & more uptodate.

Trying the same thing for my Diamond after trying out Android on it.
Same problem here. Running android 1.0 got me into this trouble.
(Running android 0.8 multiple times did not cause this problem.)
Did anybody find a better solution than hard reset?
Re
Same problem here cant run .cab files after trying run Android 0.8.
Damn , dunno why i tried to run Android 0.8
Hi, I tried to get answer for my problems, but none any specific
so I`m startin a new thread...btw
My JASJAR has the same problem as lots of folks around here like it shuts off at any hard work like starting the camera or charge at 60%. I came to an end that as it works ok with the charger on, then the problem must be on battery. Well I'll try that
But the another problem is PC connectivity...it doesn't recognize the device
I tried MS Active Sync 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, windows 2000 SP4, xp SP2, different computer...just no luck, in bootloader mode it shows "serial" and "0.60" and whenever I plug in the USB, it shows USB, and then same, device not recognized...what to do?
And when I start the device, on blue background imate logo..it shows Radio 0.00.00, what does it mean..I can't even upgrade it as USB is not recognized...waiting for flash from SD, but no luck. Can any one sort these things out
First problem, almost definitively the battery.
Second and third problems could even be correlated, first the third problem/doubt, even if I'm not a complete expert, this means that your device was "unlocked" with the aid of a specific program that does just that (if you're interested in knowind how, go to the uni's wiki and read about unlocking), the Radio version 0.00.00 is just a "by-product" of that process.
So, if you're asking about this, you didn't do this by yourself, so you don't know what and how much has been done to your PDA, then for your second problem, first try a soft reset (this is always windows, remember it!), the re-connect the device (to the PC) and see what happens, then verify that you have the active sync program installed properly (and running) in your PDA, just when you connect the PDA to the computer, the active sync should become available as a running program, so, connect the PDA to the computer, the PDA turns on and says connecting, even if it does not connect to the computer you should see active sync running in your PDA, go to settings, system, memory, running programs and verify that it's there.
Another cause could be hardware (on your PDA), this means, cables and port or even internal (but this is quite unlikely).
Perform these tests and see what happens, then we'll see what else can be done.
Thnz, I trued several soft reset even hard reset,
I tried connecting to the computer with ActiveSync on, with some other software which changes the active sync connection to something like USB serial (from RNDIS ...), even advance networking off, taking out the SIM and memory card...running the device search..no luck.
and btw in computer after installing active sync it gives a window with all menu disabled except "File>Connection Setting". I tried by using bluetooth connectivity. No luck.
I read the thread about unlocking..and tried to do the rest..I mean the second step of unlocking, it showed device successfully unlocked..but all the same.
Any help....
mamaich method
Try this,
Step by Step :
get the tools at attachment , as mamaich told, you have to use it in bootloader mode , (Power + Light Bulb + Reset)
1. Stop Activesync USB connection
2. Uni : Reboot Bootloader then Connect USB
3. PC : Run mtty1.42.exe
4. Choose USB in "Port" (Reconnect if can't find/reconglize USB and try remove sim and sd card)
5. type : task 28 55aa
6. Press Enter
7. Cause DOC reformatted, so there's no rom in DOC ,try reflash any rom that you like .
For task 28 55aa in mtty success , will show the message (attachment )
DONE .
