XDA MINI S ain't connecting with MSN Messneger - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

hi
i have the O2 xda mini S
and it seems to have a mind of it's own, as it won't connect to MSN messenger when i want it to, some times it does, sometimes it doesn't,
the message i get is "temporary conditions currently prevent connecting to the pocket MSN service"
which i've heard is a common problem with these factory fresh XDA Mins S'.
i've downloaded the firmware from the o2 website and flashed the unit, and at 1st it seemed ok, but a few days later the problem came back, and now it's not having any of it.
i've phoned O2 up about this problem, and they seem to be as much help as a wet paper bag! i've gone through all the gprs settings with them.
They say, seen as i can conenct to the interent through GPRS via internet explorer then the unit it's self is funtioning fine, even though messenger doesn't, so they told me to contact Microsoft, yeah right!
has any one got any ideas or fixs that would cure this predicument of mine?
i would be most greatful.
i'm on

SMS receiving problem

Hi, I’m one of your “old anonymous readers”, but I think that now comes my time, finally (wow) I have a problem
After upgrading my radio from 1.02 to 1.04 (I’m not sure that this could be the real reason of my issue) I’ve noticed that I cannot receive any SMS’s, I am able to send but there is no sign of the received ones…However the sender receives the note that everything vent all right, it is very embarrassing, since they can think that I am …at least impolite…
Please help, I don't really want a hard reset
By the way: my thanks goes to Pug for his “masterpieces” in upgrading

No SMS
Same here. :x
Have had that problem, got a new device, everything OK until I synchronized!
First I though that it's a problem with the provider but the provider tells me, they get an SMS received message on their system, so everything seems to be in order on their side.
Are there any settings in active sync that I could have messed up?

Something new: :shock:
I noticed that in case an SMS is “received” by my PPC, a new file appears in the windows folder (MsgQueueDataFileMicrosoft Text SMS Protocol, about 2,7 MBs) and the only thing what the device does is that it switches on…without any notification regarding the incoming SMS…
Pls. help
hmmm...seem like im having same problem with sms..... will try to find the solution soon.....
Finally some good news…khm…I was referring only to the last part of your sentence
You know, this situation is very strange, because this is the second time when appeared in a good, working system, without having installed or de-installed any application.
Appeared just like that, a few hours ago I received SMS’s and than, like a damn, the “ability” of receiving them just vanished…
So, my fear is, that leaving the problem unsolved, although I hard-reset, reinstall everything, the problem can appear in the future suddenly as well.
An other strange think is, that I had made a complete sprite backup from the totally working system (functional SMS, MMS, connections, so on…) much before this damned situation, I try to be far-seeing :lol: , and now, AFTER a hard reset, rebuild my system from that backup, the problem is the same. NO SMS…exhausting
Anyway, now I am a little bit relaxed :wink: knowing that someone experienced is handling this problem. Hope that you’ll find the answer, I couldn’t :idea:

Hi,
Don't know whether this gets you on the right track, but my magician has the same probs when I put back a restore with sprite & this restore includes sms, e-mail etc. settings & data. When I leave out the sms & e-mail stuff everything works just fine. Though I manually have to recreate the e-mail settings ofcourse. Looks like something gets out-of-sync, maybe you have to clear some databases as well to get it all 'empty' and working again.
As the first post mentioned doing an upgrade before noticing the prob. you might have the same issue.
Regards, M
Thanx, I'll give it a try.

hi,
could you list me down what file do you have at /Windows/Startup
hi there,
here they are:
IA_CID_StartUp.lnk
Camera_Detect.lnk
Check_AutoRun.lnk
poutlook.lnk
RunBT.lnk
STK.lnk
that's all my friend...
i got file with name elatepushservice.lnk
hmm.....
and...is this good or bad ?
Some news:
I think that someone out there heard my prayers and what a miracle… the SMS receiving works now (I don’t know for how long…). BUT since that, my BT headset is unusable (I can connect it, I hear the incoming call signal, but after receiving the call or initiating a call, I hear only some noises…). To be honest I’m happy with the SMS, about the headset…till I can use the built-in speakerphone, the problem doesn’t really bother me …
The only thing I had done before this “miracle” just happened is that I uninstalled the Sprite Backup (v.2.14) and reinstalled the latest one (I think 3.14). I don’t suppose that this was the “help”, I think it’s only a strange coincidence…
But I learned something from this, Scully: “THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE…”
Hmmm,
I'm not so sure that Sprite 2.1.4 was NOT the cause of your problems. When I restore my mail, sms etc with that specific version I cannot receive any e-mail or sms. Sending remains possible .
Cheers, M
only some SMS received
I seem to have the same problem - but can not put it down to any application installed or even restoring from backup - happens on a virgin XDA 2i after hard reset -
i even upgraded to latest (o2) rom 1.11.162 WWE (no change in symptom)
Rom 1.11.00 WWE
Radio 1.00.00
Problem is getting worse - (I receive about half of my SMS) - testing showed that on trying to receive an SMS the XDA switches on and then looses the network and starts looking - when the network is aquired again there is no notification of a new SMS and it is also not received.
Any help????
@Irishfella:
Just sit back and relax, the problem will be solved by it self…Sorry I was just kidding (although I know that now, you are not in such kind of mood).
As you’ve perhaps read through my posts I had the same problem and for the moment – touch wood – has been solved. I swear I have no idea how…
If you’ll figure out something please let us know. Good luck!
Of course if I'll find out something, I'll post it here.
sadly it has not (gone away that is)
@seatone
I think I can pin point it to a weak reception (see my other post) and thought a radio upgrade might fix - but on reading back this entry I see that you are on 1.04 - so that seems to be a dead end.
(sending works fine by the way)
did you (or anybody else) do any further troubleshooting on this?
Does anyone found the solution to this problem? In the past two weeks, I have just notice that I had the same problem. The SMS messages are definitely received by the phone, my inbox say I have "Text Message 0 Items, 5 unread", but no text is shown at all. And if I create messages and then save it in drafts, it said I have 1 draft but again, nothing is shown under drafts.

For the record, that's the O2 Active UI loader.
Problem solved.
This link http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/raj/Unread.html shows you how to remove the unread message are reset the Inbox. Works for me and I hope it does the tricks to others as well.
Great tip, no need for it today, but stored for future use.

quick rom question

Hi,
I've been using this forum for a while but think this is my first ever post!
I've been having problems with the search function today so decided its going to be quicker if someone can help me out.
I've never updated the rom on my wizard (which was on o2 but i unlocked and usign t-mobile uk sim now) though as im using push email the not vibrating when on standby thing is starting to piss me off.
Question is which rom do i need to fix that standby problem?
currently mine is on
rom version: 2.21.4.1 WWE
date 3/9/06
radio version 02.07.10
protocol version 413.1.03
extrom version 2.21.4.101
bit of a begginer with this so not sure if its g3 or g4 :S
thanks for any help
You can use my Molski.Biz roms.
Never heard that someone that uses my Rom has the same problem like you.
Regards,
Molski
have you tried going to settings, sounds and notifications, then tick the notifications tab at the bottom, under Event choose Messaging: New Email message then tick the option for vibrate?
dont know if this works while in standby or not, but know the option is there and turned off by default
yeah its set to make a sound and vibrate etc... which it does when its on, just in stand by it doesnt do it.
Heard about the problem before tbh which is how i know its a romproblem.
Just downloaded the t-mobile usa rom which imgonna give a blast, nothing to loose i guess
ahh had a go late last night and learned a few more things which if id spent longer reading the forum id have found out lol.
Right my phones a G4 and was an o2 uk phone.
First problem was it seems impossible to update a rom in vista as when it goes into bootloader mode vista disconnects from the phone. had a go with xp and got further.
Next problem is seems I can only use o2 uk roms presumably due to it being CID locked which am i right in thinking you have to pay to unlock?
Sooo if I want a nice new rom am I right in thinking im buggered? lol

HW6515H GPRS Won't Connect/Resolved!

Purchased a refurbished HP6515H, updated the Rom tonight with the Rom12132beta and now I can't connect to GPRS on my phone. Can send/receive texts and phone calls. Cannot connect to GPRS so no email or internet activity at all.
I know this is a older model phone. Does anyone have the original rom for the 6515H that I can get to go back to the original rom. Or does anyone know how to fix this problem. Have done a couple of hard reset and no software programs installed but GPRS will not connect.
I would appreciate any assistance I can get. Thank you!
Found the 1.12.00 WWE Rom on another site and GPRS is back to normal!
ipaq 6515h
The patch is not working for me and has completely disabled my ipaq 6515h. Where did you find the 1.12.00 WWE ROM (the full version instead of the update)? Help, please!!

O2 XDA II usb issues HELP!!!

Greetings!
Totally newbie here. Trying to sort what kind of phone I have. I've been told on other forums that I have a Himalaya or an XDA II. Needless to say, I don't mind whichever PPC I have but I really need your expertise on this issue.
Having some problems with my O2 XDA IIi trying to use Activesync with my laptop and desktop through USB. I got it traded with my other phone. Anyway, I connected my XDA with both my desktop and laptop but it doesn't recognize it. Its saying "Unknown Device" and Window XP cannot find a driver for it or something like that. Although, it has an icon of a "Mobile Device" both on my PC but I can't explore it. Anyway here are the steps I have taken so far. Even though there's no Activsync installed, PC would still say Unknown Device.
Steps Taken:
- Already did try different USB ports from both Laptop and Desktop all running on USB 2.0 several times - no good;
- Uninstalled and reinstalled Activsync 4.5 and 4.1 and hard reset XDA several times - no good;
- I borrowed my fiancee's O2 XDA IIi and used her cradle and it worked with both my Laptop and Desktop;
- Used my cradle with her O2 XDA IIi and it worked as well on both pc;
- Now that I have isolated the issues from desktop, laptop and cable; I know its my XDA;
Here are some info about my O2 XDA IIi:
- ROM Version: 2.06.00WWE
- ROM Date: 06/14/04
- Radio Version: 1.18.00
- Protocol Version: 1337.38
- ExtROM Version: Xda2JoJo.v3.2zS
I know Alpine's are good Pocket PC and I just need to know how to troubleshoot it. It can be my powerful device to date if I just can sync it with my PC in order to have those unwanted programs from the ExtROM. I got the procedures to Flash the ROM and everything from this site and I know you guys are the best people to help me with this issue. It has something to do with my XDA. Its working fine but I just need to sync it with my PC in order for me to sync information between them. It maybe just a file or a driver for it to work. Tried several sites but no info about my issue.
I hope I have given you all the info you need. Please I'm desperate to ask for any assistance from you guys. All your efforts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

from device info:
- ROM Version: 2.06.00WWE
- ROM Date: 06/14/04

Sure will. I believe I have the XDA II. Trying to contact the moderator of Himalayas named xda2jojo because is the creator of this ROM. I'll let you know if I have gained new information.

Maybe worth a try??
HI Guys,
My first post on here. Been watching on the sidelines for years though.
I had the same problem with my XDA2i, for about a year. Had to resort to Nokia N80...(Pile of CR*p).
ANyway, after completely giving up on the XDA i decided to operate. I bought me a cheap set of TORX screwdrivers of ebay and opened her up. I was puzzled as she would charge via USB but not get detected, or on occation get detected as unknown device as you described. I convinced myself that some of the pins must of been damaged. When i opened her up and inspected the pins some of them appeared corroded (or just very dirty) on the back where they join the PCB. I gave them a tickle and tidy and hey presto, she's back up and running again.
Give it a try, you got nothing to loose if you cant sync.

Sync problem
Hi
Just bought an old one of the IIi and had the same problem. In my case theres a fault in the cradle. Bought a cradle online (used and cheap) and

Hi, first post in here... I got same problem about device not recognized with cradle... I bought O2 xda II second... If there any solution?
Qtek (Vodaphone version of the XDA) running pocket pc 4.2
Hello there I have been reading the posts and i have ot be honest I'm a little lost as I just like to plug and go, sorry for being a ludite.
I have an Orange M1500 but the connection broke so i couldn't charge or sync anything. So I thought I would but a new PDA similar, not realising exactly the nightmare outthere, anyway I thought I was getting a simi;ar machine in the Qtek, however my M1500 runs 2003se, and the QTEk runs the pocket pc 4.2.
just to make life interesting I am now on vista, which i hate, but am stuck with.
Please can somebody help me on trying to sync the systems as nothing I have tried so far seems to work and when it comes to the technical speak i get lost, again sorry for being dense.
Here is hoping for some magic.
Many thanks
tony

reception lost in my room

Hey...so this is my story. i tried to figuere out if somebody got the same probs but couldnt find it anywhere so i am just asking all of you thanks...
SO here we go...
My Provider is E-plus and i live in Stuttgart (germany)
I got my HTC kaiser about 6 month ago and it always worked well and i didnt have any problems. I had reception everywhere (also in my room). The regular Windows mobil was installed i didnt change anything.neither the rom version nor the radio rom. so everything was how i got it in the beginning.
Then i have flashed the new version of Windows mobile 6.1 (downloaded from the HTC homepage,sorry i dont now the specific name and which radio version it was) but from that moment on my mobile phone didnt reciept in my room anymore. There was always the "!".
Then i have tried:
- to look for reciept manually (it found different providers but couldnt connect with those
- i ve tested my sim card with other phones and it worked
- i have tested different Roms and radio roms such as:
original rom
L26_KaiserDiamond_V9 (englisch)
Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid v2 5.2.19716/5.2.19700 (englisch)
German clean WM6.5◄ by ChrBeck (CHome)
- different radios such as:
KAISER Radios These Radios were ripped from Kaiser WM6.1 ROMs.
1.65.14.06
1.65.20.29
1.65.16.25
1.65.17.56
1.70.19.09 -
1.71.09.01 -
lots of 1.58.XXXXX and 1.64.XXXX
and even more
--> they all work while i am not in my room. but non of them worked in my room...and it did before.
then i decided to use the original version again which i did
i ve installed Rom:
CE OS 5.2.1620(Build18125.0.4.2)
1.56.407.3
Radiorom: 1.27.12.32
What happened now is that it shows that it got full reception but the phone still doesnt work in my room. but i can use the UMTS date transmission --> i can use the Internet
as soon as i am outside and soft reset the mobile phone it works perfectly.
i am not shure if i have listed everything that is important but if somebody could help me with that i would be pretty cool because a mobile which is just working half of the time isnt very usefull...
any ideas? thanks
Seems like your phone sees the signal seded by the Mobile Operator to you but it isn't able to send a signal back to tell the operator that it is there. Seems like something causes your internal Antenna of the phone to be not as powerfull as at the beginning. Maybe you installed a Radio that has lowered the power and no Radio will rise it again cause the radio things you are in a power restricted area.
In my Charmer I was able to get the power of the radio unit 10% up but the trick doesn't seem to work for the Kaiser. Maybe an user with more Kaiser knowlege can help you better.
Anything new in your room (or nearby) that might be causing interference?
thats what i thought first too...because i ve installed wireless power point...but i have deinstalled them in my room again and it didnt work neither
