When I try to Format FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE failed

I have a Qtek9090 with ROM 1.40, radio 1.13
When I try to format my ROM to 128M wit the DOC_Repart tool I got the message FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE failed, even I can see create and delete into the ExtendRom.
I have tried to install some ship ROM but it doesn't solve my issue.
A friend who get the same Qtek as me doesn't had any trouble when upgrading to WM5. I have sent my Qtek to be repaired a few month ago, could it be modified by Qtek ? Does somebody else get the same issue than me ?

upz
i got the same problem too !!!
stuck with the issue
and using 2005 with less mem

Hi,
got the same error. *duh*
The phone was also sent to qtek for reparation.

Got it working now.
I´ve made a hardreset to install the normal ext_rom.
After that i installed xda-developers_unlocker.cab from wm5_pack_v3 and then resco fileexplorer.
Cause of the german naming of programme (not programs) i couldn´t use the links in startmenu to execute the unlocker.
I used the execute-function in resco fileexplorer to execute the following commands:
\programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom -unlock -xda3 and
\programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom -unhide
Then: soft-reset.
After that i copied the Repart_doc.exe from wm5_pack_v3.
This time it worked without any errors.

this is veri interesting news, i will try again in a min
ehheheh
the using resco to run is one different thing i did not do

so sad, give me hope
hehehe
i just tried this n it did not work also

thats it!! Im trying to format the extrom of my T-Mobile MDAIII for days now, but this is the solution! u need the tool mentioned here, the extendedromunlocker in EXACTLY this version with the "-xda3" switch ! Any other version of the tool will not work. Dont ask me why, but ive tried them all and ONLY THIS works! a huge thanks triplehelix.
i will attach the .cab for anyone who wasted hours to solve this damn problem!
greets
//edit: sorry for pushing this really old thread, but anyway, i think this will help anyone wo was as desperate as me.

dunno if this helps but, back in my Hima days, the "FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE" error is due to the extended ROM not unlock & unhide.
you have to run the unlock & unhide procedure to avoid the FL_IOCTL_FORMAT_PHYSICAL_DRIVE error.

really thanks, i have the same problem and with other unlockers can't work, Repart_doc.exe anytime give me this error, next time i format my pda want try this to format my extrom

Still an't working for my XdaIIs....

Can you attach the 'Repart_doc.exe' file...
I can't get my device formated....

its located here: ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/BA_WM5/Tools/Repart_DOC.exe
have you tried to unhide and then unlock with the "-xda3" switch ?
i use SOTI PocketController to remote control my device. it has a "command line" interface included. here you can type dos style commands. execute the unlocker, inclusive -unlock and -xda3 switch.
for example: \programme\extendedromunlocker\unlockextrom.exe -unlock -xda3
this is the most important line.

this time for me work very well, but have reflashed to italian W2K3 Swisscom 1.40, on this rom Program Files are named Programmi like in any other italian rom, just copied (with resco explorer) the entire folder from "programmi" to a new folder created by myself under device root named "program files" and without any change to original link in windows/start menu/extrom tools are not needed
for me work on first try with this method, and now have missing megabytes of valuable space
all files needed are picked from this thread (except for rom and resco explorer)

still not working
I've tried all the method above... but still not working... I've tried a lot of roms but still... any other sugestions?

Hi guys
I tried everything but I just can't get extended rom to be formated.
Maybe someone as a better idea to solve the problem

TomTom for my Wizard?

Up till last week I had a T-Mobile MDA Compact and I'd got Tomtom (bakonl) running. Now I have a Wizard (T-Mobile from The Netherlands) and I can't install the Tomtom. Appears that WM2005 not compatible with Tomtom Version 5. Anyone got a plan to get arround this? :?:

To install TTN5 on WM5 you have to copy the cab files directly to pda and launch it with the pocket explorer (or resco explorer).

a bit more info to install tomtom and get it working
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29606

Thanks for the responses guys. I've given it a go and moved the cab files from the CD to my SD card and installed the GPS cab first. Then soft booted the Vario and then attempted to install the TTN cab.
All per the post :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=29277&highlight=ttn
However... Still won't install correctly...
Am I doing something wrong?
Any more advice gladly received.
Thanks,

you need te get the tomtom 5.1 files then it works fine. I've got it working on my bleu angel with WM5, and today i installed in on my brother's vario and it worked just fine.

Thanks,
Can I ask... Where did you get the 5.1 files from?

You can download TTN5.1 from the following link
http://www.tomtom.com/updates/ppcupd510.exe

otherwise just use a torrent search engine, you should find it in no time

You need the zip file not the exe. AS4 messes up the installation.

Dear All,
I found this update this week..
http://users.skynet.be/wallpaper/TOMTOM5.1.zip (for more info see http://tomtom3.web-log.nl/log/856067 around - Mondeo :: 20 september 2005 16:18 -).
Note : Download, unzipp... connect your PDA/Phone via Sync cabel/station, setup.exe run. (I have installed it over my (bakonl) 5.0 version.... !!!).
Note 2 : Can ONLY be used if you have a BeNeLux version of bakonl TT5 and only with the BeNeLux map (normal or plus).......
Success with the upgrade.

TomTom with WM6.1 on HTC wizard
Good Morning,
can anybody support me in trying to setup a navigation functionality on my HTC wizard, that runs WindowsMobile 6.1 (those TNT edition)?
Unfortunately i can't find up to date information about which GPS-hardware to use. Is BlooTooth the only reasonable solution for the wizard?
I also plan to feed the tachymeter signal from my bicycle somehow. Has anybody read of approaches to this and can cite or link?
Third thing I'm in search of is an alternative camera software. The "Camera for Pocket PC Version 3.00" does not support geoTagging and not even writing in the Tags for Titling, commenting etc.
Many thanks for your valuable hints in advance.

Applicationlock MTeoR

Hello,
today I get my HTC MTeoR.
For my Exchangeserversync I need to install a other root certificate.
But the Phone had a Applicationlock.
All known solutions for other HTC Phones don't work.
Have anybody a new solutions?
Regards
sotmysoft

I got the same problem, and after speeking with both the Danish & English HTC support, they both told me to wait for a rom upgrade or check for modification to "registration database". I have now looked through the whole internet and so far nobody seems to solved the problem.
So now i have HTC MTeoR as a brick, and a HTC TyTn send back because of problems with screen and keyboard !! Well done HTC !!

I have read somewhere that you need a special Regeditor which is recognised by the HTC and then change the following Key: HKLM/Security/policies/policies
00001017 from 128 to 144
That did the job on my QTEK 8500

...what does this policy do? Mine contains the value 148...

Have read the same on the net, but does not work on MTeoR.

I think it enables you to install a certificate

The reg hack that has worked previously for other WM5 devices doesnt work on the Mteor. In fact, you get a permisison denied error when trying to change the value.
Apparently HTC are working on a new ROM but can't give an ETA :evil:

What is this?
Has someone ever tried this registry editor?
It seems to work with MTeoR, but I don't have it yet...
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Breeze/regeditSTG2.zip

I used the one called regeditSTG but I think it is the same thing...
My device is QTEK 8500 and the regeditSTG works on my device

Confirm that regeditSTG2 DOES unlock the Mteor, but the phone will not let you copy this app to the phone or to the card- so it has to be copied from a computer directly onto the storage card before using. Then it works!
Thanks guys, this is a real breakthrough

I have found another thing in the HKLM\security\policies\policies add the following DWORD "0000101b" value 1
I found it by Modaco. There this is a solutionif you get error 57 when running some software. BUT and this is big, when I added the value my TOMTOM received a new Device ID so it asks to activate and this being the second device that I activate I have to keep on changing the value to 0
Does anyone have for me maybe cracked version of Tomtom 5 mobile v5.20 for Windows smartphones with QVGA display (not symbian)

Solution i've found was posted by Pagemakers on the Expansys forums...
http://www.modaco.com/Mteor-application-unlock-solution-t244205.html
Tested and working. Allows you to import root cert and also the stops the insufficient permissions when installing software.

MTeor unlock
howdy,
does anybody know how to unlock HTC MTeor?
seems to me that the device is unable to edit the registry.
(I'm installing a root certificate)
already installed on Qtek 8310 and 8500 but the registry on MTeor is uneditable..
Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Here is most "official" way of application unlocking of virtually any HTC produced device: one third of unlocker is made by HTC and remaining two by M$
Unzip to device and run in numbered order. Then check incoming sms folder* for the status report. If report is negative then your rom have non-default privileged OEM cert, flashing to something more standard would solve the problem.
* it is not real sms, just system notification placed in sms folder (nothing is transmitted over radio) you can perform unlocking with phone turned off and sim card removed to be shure

ATT WM6 iGO not working, gx.dll problem?

I've upgraded my vodafone to the at&t wm6 and iGO 2006 plus doesn't work correctly, it loads shrunken/compressed in the middle of the screen to the point of (almot) unusable, it worked fine on the wm5.
I think the problem is with the gapi, as when I tried using Morph gear with manual driver and selected gapi the screen was also compressed in the middle, and it too woked fine with gapi on wm5.
I know the GAPI is located at the gx.dll file, I can't delete or rename that file, anyone knows how to maybe put the gx.dll file from wm5 on the wm6?

Hello
I have the same Problem with I-GO and WM6
So i flashed back to WM5 :-(

treo 750v, flashback ?
I have the same problem with my treo 750v. Moreover also my phone is now locked, whereas initially I could use ith wiht any provider. I know this was nog a smart move by now. Question is how to solve this. Anybody has a clue ?
According to palm it is not possible to flash back to WM5. However I read in previous post they recovered wm5, was this also with palm 750v ?
Hope somebody can help.

how do you perform a rollback to wm5
can some help in telling me how to perform a rollback to wm5 on the treo 750v to the 1.16 firmware version.

IGO - Treo 750 - WM6 problem
Hi there!
Could you figure out something about the IGO display problem that occurs after WM6 upgrade?
I have beed playing around with the sys.txt file changing settings in the [interface] and [gx] sections. I have also tried to replace the gx.dll GAPI library with the latest one.
No success so far.
Please, let me know if you have any progress on this!
Thanks!

Solution for running iGO on Treo 750 with WM6
Please verify if the following solution works:
- Create a file in your iGO folders called sys.txt
- The file should contain the following section:
[interface]
gxoff=1
It already worked for a few Treo users.

Hi:
I would love to try this. I am somewhat of a newbie though, can you please give further instructions? I of course understood the part about creating new file, from there I got a little lost. Do I create a text document with gxoff=1 as the actual text
in it? Sorry if this is a dumb question
Thanks!

Well, am VERY happy to report, that the excellent advice given by rmplus, worked perfectly after I figured out that I had to include the entire text (I was leaving off the [interface] portion):
[interface]
gxoff=1
in a .txt file called sys.
THANKS SO MUCH

Does anyone happen to know of a fix like this for Jewel Challenge?
I am having the same problem.
Thanks!

after i did this i am getting an error:
C:\GPS_2006R3_iGOSE\firefly\base\core\ffsurface.cpp.299
Exception in EndPaint
exiting application

Hi all
I'm having exactly the same problem as gilmargolin - above. iGO 2006 worked perfectly under WM5 (one of the few programs that did). iGO Tech Support says the program is not supported on WM6, but someone must have an idea as it is only a screen resolution problem.
Cheers

Yep - verbatim. I stored the sys.txt file in the SD card iGO folder root. If I place the file anywhere else sensible, I get a hardware error. Frustrating!

That's too bad. Not to be funny, but did you make sure to include the entire text, just as it's listed?
[interface]
gxoff=1
On my first try I left off the [interface] part, and it wouldn't work.
Good Luck

Nope - nothing so simple. Sigh...

Ugh, that's too bad. Sorry I couldn't be any help.

I resolve problem Igo 2006 on Treo 750 WM6
1. Uninstall previous iGo version from Treo 750
2. Copy install files of June iGo version on the root of SD card (folders [2577] & [iGo])
3. Start autorun.exe from folder [2577]
4.Put in [Igo] folder on SD card, "sys.txt" file with
[interface]
gxoff=1
And that's it!
It works for me.

Thanks!!!
It worked perfectly!!!

Does it work really slower then how it works regularly on WM5?
On my device there are frezzes of couple of seconds.

VOIPWM6 and GPS

I've been trying to install Internet calling on my diamond, while I managed to get the VOIP working using the WM6VOIP (ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/WMXL_Support_Files/WM6VoIP.CAB) cab file and SIP Config, another problem showed up. I have tried even the last WMVOIP+SipConfig CAB package with the same results
The moment I install the WM6VOIP cab, the internal GPS function goes dead - it does not work anymore. Soft reset will not fix the problem.
It took me 3 hard resets to figure what exactly was causing the trouble
I guess the WM6VOIP cab overwrites some system files and/or registry settings vital to the GPS Receiver
Is there anyone who had the same problem or anyone who tried to enable Internet Calling on HTC DIAMOND. Any solution to this?

Same here
I had the same problem. Hard reset to fix it.
Something in the VOIP installation makes the GPS invisible to any app which tries to use it. Even the QuickGPS app would not work.
Too bad...I would love to have the VOIP option..but not over GPS.

same problem here

So THAT'S why my GPS stopped working! Jeez! I think we need a new CAB of VoIP software from WM 6.1.
EDIT: Has anyone tried this one?

Nevermind. That one breaks GPS too and can't be uninstalled. *sigh*

same here... did you installed it manually or by a pack (containing sip config tool, gsm codec, bass fix and internet calling) ?
I installed the pack... and my gps died... but not on my HTC trinity.
Someone should install all the packages manually, one by one , and see how it goes.
Please post your findings.

Unfortunately I'm in the same boat :-(

But I found solution:
Rename in windows directory following files:
\Windows\dnsapi.dll
\Windows\ipdialplan.xml
\Windows\rtcdll.dll
\Windows\voipphonecanvas.dll
\Windows\ringback.wma
Delete all registry changes made by instalation which is described by author in post #66 in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401608&page=7, reset diamond and if you want you can delete now files which was renamed in previus step.
After that go to settings->System->External GPS->Access and remove tick from "Manage GPS automatically". After that confirm with OK and go one more time in the same place and turn it on "Manage GPS automatically". I'm not sure that this change are nessesary, but now I have working GPS whitout hard reset.
