can you help me?
well i did not know that it is rude to write in caps.
well please advise if you could help me out with the problem
From what I understand you device is known here as blue angel.
From the description of your problem it does sound that you may have a bad piece of software on it. The question is what did you install.
Firs off, putting in a memory card will not help you open files of 20 - 30MB. The card only expands storage memory, not RAM. Basically it is like a hard drive.
I can only recommend the following:
Back up your data (contacts, tasks, emails, documents etc.) then hard reset your device. This will restore it to its original state. (Sorry, but I don't know how to hard reset this particular phone - try the blue angel forum).
If your device still doesn't work well you may have a hardware problem. Otherwise, try installing all the programs one by one using the device in between to see just which program causes it to slow down and hang.
hi,
thanks for your information but i did tried everything.
i have tried hard resetting and did not put anything new.even removed my storage card and then tried but still same problem. i have even upgraded to 1.42 netherland but it did not even get solved.
i have tried everything in the software issue but it is not working.
kindly do advise what has to be done?
It can be a software you install on you pda. Are you having this trouble even if you do not install anything extra to your pda? After a hard reset try to use it without installing any other application a couple of days.
Did it spend any time in a moist environment? Or get water damage? Physical damage? (i.e. drop, crush, constant vibration.) The only thing that would make me satisfied is if I took the whole thing apart, disconnected and recconected all ribbon cables/connectors.
Thank you for your information.
well i have even tried to upgrade to 1.42 and radio 1.13 and removed everything but still the same problem.
i have not installed a single thing but still it is the same problem.
i am tired of this pda and i do not know what to do
please help

I'm having problems running the ROM upgrade by iMate. I keep getting Error 101 connection error, and I had grown to assume this was a problem relating to running from Virtual PC on a Mac rather than a real PC.
Today I at last managed to get access to a PC running Windows XP, activesync 3.7.1, and got exactly the same problem. I tried it several times.
I'm beginning to wonder if any of my past failed attempts on my mac have done something to the phone that is preventing it from being controlled properly by the ROM upgrade software?
Is there anything more than a hard reset to take the device back to factory settings?
Please - if anyone can help me get this sorted I'd be really grateful. The device is just too unreliable in it's current state, and I just cannot manage to get the ROM upgrade working. It's just unbelievably frustrating!
A hard reset will take the device to the last rom upgrade.
Now in your case this could be the failed rom upgrade which you did over the mac. You would have to look at the device info to check that.
If I was you I would do a rom upgrade of a PC and not off a mac, not that I have anything agaist macs (apart from ...) Its just that I know it works of a pc.
I tried a ROM upgrade from a PC this morning and it didn't work. It kept reseting the device, then said Error 101 connection error (even though it was connnecting fine to Activesync 3.7.1).
I've made a little progress since then. I've pressed power-reset-record to put it into the 'bootloader'? and this allows the installer to go one step further and says installing the radio rom (but never gets beyond 0%). I now get the error 114.
Now that I've got this far, I will have another go with a PC on Monday and see if that makes any difference.
I've just bought the SE K700i which I hope will be a little more reliable. I really just want to get the PDA2K upgraded so it's in a fit state to sell, and perhaps I might even consider keeping it if the ROM makes a radical difference to reliability. It's so nice to go back to just using iSync with the K700i without go-between software and Virtual PC and all that hassle. My plan is to use the K700i until something comes along that catches my attention (I'm still not convinced by the Treo 650 or P910, and I wont forget my experience of Pocket PC for a while!).
If I may add my experience on similar situation, I got a device which was upgraded using a wrong ROM file, and now it ended up with no radio and no operator ID :shock: ... and can't accept "standard" ROM upgrade ... I managed to be able to upgrade the ROM or Ext ROM individually by using null operator ID ... but when it comes to Radio upgrade it doesn't start at all giving failure.
Biso007
So what is the story if you let the device drain down and then take out the battery. Would a Normal offical update not work then.
I have yet to read anything about were on the device the Opid is coded in the hardware. What I know is that the ndf have the opcode in the header and this is checked against the getdevicedata.
I have had check for the opcode in regedit with no luck. (this I some what expected as I did not feel that it is part of the OS).
anybody have a better understanding on that issue?
when I run getdevicedata.exe I get nothing except "PH20B" ... so I used NULL opid to upgrade ROM and Ext ROM ... but this trick didn't work with the Radio part ... more over, I tried the trick of draining the battery down ... it worked only once and the radio is back (I don't know how!!) however, with the last reset after the upgrade the Radio is gone again!!
My suggestion so far is that the Radio part is there but it's inactive due to a problem with the charging circute ... and since the Radio is the 1st stage of the upgrade, it holds the whole process failed.
maybe someone with solid experience with the device design itself can shed more light on this issue.
Hum!
Well what I know about the radio is that it is Lang independent, which means what ever check is run on the upgrade it does not look for the lan code.
Further it must check against the radio type as this is part of the config file that is in the upgrade.
I know that a hardreset will load what ever file is around (so it must be stored in the orignal format on the device, then loaded on hardreset). This seems not to be true for the EXTrom as this seems to be extracted as files on the device (thus you can flush it).
So we have a hardcored opid somewere on the device that now shows zero for you. What was the shipped version of it. Have you tried a ship.exe from your original device without using the xda-tools.
Can you tried a radio only upgrade and used your shipped opid in the fix.bat (maybe after a battery drain again)
Seems a shame to have a paper wheight and not a phone.
Crossing my fingers, but now it worked!! :lol:
The only additional action I took this time is to take the battery out and close the bottome notch which I believe has something to do with the backup battery.
When the device restarted, the Radio part is back with the original version, IMEI and call durations which confirms my idea that the Radio part was always there but blocked by a power charging issue.
Update [27/2/2005 6:40 pm GMT +2]:
I checked the devicedata.txt file and it has nothing except "PH20B" ... this means for me that this device will never accept any official ROM upgrade in the future ... and doing a hard reset is a potential risk to loose the Radio again :?

and busyyyyy.......
I had the same problem
I have Qtek 2020i and I had like your problem before and while installing the same ROM from sonofon, but be happy, it is not a big deal, I just removed the battery until it erased everything left at the device (backup battery was completly empty) then I replaced the battery and reconnected the device to sync while power cable is plugged in and I tried to reinstall the same ROm and it is working find and perfect with me, I like the sonofon rom, it is really nice!!!
if you had further trouble dont hesitate to ask !
I hope that you solve your problem soon.
Hi, I have a working sonofon ROM for my Qtek 2020i. If you haven't sorted your issue out yet I'd be happy to send it you on CD. It works even on a previously failed installation.

I am assuming that Arrival has sorted the problem out by now but for future reference of others there is a simple way out.
Press and hold the following 3 buttons at the same time for about 3 seconds: Power, Action (D-Pad) and reset.
This puts the device into bootloader mode which is basically like DOS for the Alpine.
If that doesn't work, remove the battery until the backup battery runs out, place it back and put the device into bootlader mode as described above. The device can then be upgraded by connecting to the computer and running the update program.
Less crashing problems are likely if the device is connected to the mains at the same time.
NEWBIE ALERT! FIRST POST.
My phone is a Siemens sx-66. Its really frustrating me to the point that I am ready to toss this thing into the lake.
I am very grateful that this forum exists. I have spent many hours reading the WIKI site for Blue Angel and other valuable collections of data. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.
I am looking for a fix for my phone. Here's the details.
My sim card is an AT&T Wireless card. My phone is a branded, Unlocked Cingular phone. AT&T was bought out by Cingular. My previous phone (motorola v600) broke so I bought this phone on Ebay, popped my Sim in and it worked.
I upgraded the ROM and here is the current report from DeviceData.
Model No: PH20B
Minor Version: B1
Language Code: WWE
Operator Code: XGULA
ROM Version: 1.33.10
Extended ROM Version: 1.40.125
Radio Version: 1.02.10
Minor: 02.10
I should change my Sim card to a new Cingular one, but I have chosen not because the plan I have with the former AT&T Wireless has a TON of minutes and Cingular doesn't have a plan that large. My contract is now up and I am hoping to renegotiate my plan with the business dept.
Here's what my phone is doing: I can be in the middle of a call, using my bluetooth earpiece ( I am always using the BT) and all of a sudden, the phone will soft reset. A few times, it will even hard reset. The hard reset is a major Pain in my ARSE because then I have to re-enter all my internet access settings and email settings again. This usually takes about 45 minutes of my time. :shock:
The thought just occurred to me that the problem could be my battery. I don't know enough to know if I need an additional software upgrade or not. Advice is appreciated. I am afraid of upgrading to WM5 because of the bugs that people have complained about.
I love my PDA phone. It keeps me more organized than I've ever been. Unfortunately, the recent problems have caused more problems than they solve.

Thia ia why I upgraded to WM5, but...
The problem is probably a loose battery connector, using a case helped my phone a lot (kept the battery from coming loose), however, you really might want to go with a WM5 install, the worst of the WM5 issues are:
1. Slow phone ringing (there are patches that are supposed to fix this)
2. Some software won't let you become a "registered user" because they do goofy stuff with the registry and your system doesn't respond in their goofy expected way anymore
3. Some people have issues with Blue Tooth, I just wanted features that didn't work in 2003 either, so this is really a non issue (IMO).
Good luck, I still think that you should really consider WM5.
umm... i actually had this problem at one point, but i honestly doubt i had the same one you do. With mine, all the screws under the battery were loose, and everytime i would shake the phone, or anything like that, it would hard reset. I doubt thats it, but check the screws under the battery... maybe some of them are loose?

What are the real, operating advantages of WM5?? I don't want to deal with any more haywire issues with my phone or it will end up at the bottom of a lake.
REALLY NEED SOME HEAVY TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
I am still using the same OS as above. Something has been happening lately...
When my cell receives an incoming call, it doesn't receive it. The red light shows up and the caller's info shows up on history as a missed call but the phone never rang.
What the hell is going on??

try to reflash to win2003se or pick a snazzy wm5 from our boys here, I have the same model.
we had extra 2400mAh batteries laying around so we popped them in these models, definitely a must.
I suggest an aluminum alloy/magnesium case they sell online for about $20US if you can find it, lined with neoprene
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...90008633724&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1
Thanks for the info. I contacted cingular and they said they were having technical issues with converting or upgrading stuff.
I'll let you know if I change my mind about upgrading to WM5 but for now, I'll stay put. Upgrading will be my last resort.
hi hello to everybody. i need to know many things. maybe an expert will help me/guide me to the links i needed or maybe reply to me. my gf bought me an o2 xda lli last june. it works fine for me all this time and i have no prob about it. i somehow fried the cradle by inserting a bad adaptor to it and it wont work. so i don't do any backups yet or whatsoever from the pc. all i had was the 1 GB sdcard. i bought an infra red adapter recently and was wondering on trying updated roms with all the hype regarding on better performances as you guys have confessed. now unto my question:
1.do i need to upgrade my rom
XDA IIi
Rom Version: 1.11.00 WWE
Rom Date: 01/27/05
Radio Version: 1.00.00
Protocol Version: 1337.39
ExtROM Version: 1.11.923 WWE
since it never gave me a headache as of yet? honest opinion only please
2.how will i do it? any step by step instruction perhaps since i am very new to this.
3.will i be able to return back to my original rom if i happened not to like the upgrades?
4.again is it safe or worth risking it?any step by step procedure to go back to my old rom would be a big help
what do you think guys?
In my opinion you don't need to update your device! And if I know it right there isn't an update over 1.11.00!
Hi MacGuyver first-of-all Welcome to the XDA community. You have mentioned that you have already burnt-up your cradle, and then have you arranged another yet? Because once you will run-out of the battery completely then you will loose all the information as your XDA will reset to its default position.
As far as the concern about the ROM you have got the latest ROM but I think this Rom is the default rom from the manufacturer, I am using the same rom as well but the edited version (you can see in picture), edited means few features have been altered from the original rom e.g. All the O2’s crap has been deleted and by that the system is using less CPU power. I can help you out if you want that Rom. I am a big admirer of the SPB softwares as they are light and accurate (try the link below) and I am using nearly all of their softwares (pictures attached).

One suggestion would be to check out ebay and some of the other online sites for a replacement cradle and power supply, then you will at least have full connectivity to the computer.
thanks for the warm welcome guys. as you can see i live in the philippines and i am away from the metropolis for the moment till the end of the year. there are no cradles for sale right now at this town. so i might end up buying it by january when i return to work. anyways i have seek help from a local cell shop and the dude there gave me this charger which cost me about 10dollars just to have the unit charged. it was a modified nokia charger, but it gets the job done, so i'm guessing that the infra red device i bought will be of no help for connectivity for my Alpine? actually i never tried it yet with the alpine, because i treasure this baby so much don't want to mess or destriy it and all.
i do consider upgrading the camera though since it looks so dusty. and yes i want to rid it of the O2 stuff as well. so far i am happy with it's performance. got few more questions to ask.
1. by fixing the camera, do i really need to have an entirely new rom on the unit?
2.judging by what you guys said, updating the rom using with the infra red device is not adviseable, or it can be done?
3.do people on ebay really can be trusted sending stuff to remote places like the philippines if i go shopping from there?
thank you and i am very much enjoying my stay here guys
Hey a fellow countryman!
There is a shop that sells XDA series Phones and accessories. It's not a specialty shop but it is the only one in the country. If I remember correctly it is called Brightpoint, located in Araneta Mall.
Been there once, I kinda broke the phone and had to have it reflashedd with the original ROM.
First of regarding "upgrading" the ROM, only the Extended Rom can be manipulated.
The radio version has a newer version, v1.04. Don't know the exact difference and the O2 website doesn't give it to Asian XDA owners (been checking and no upgrades for us in this part of the world).
The WWE ROM is still the same thing as far as I have learned. Although you can change it for another language (Don't know how but a lot of people have been requesting the localized version of the ROMs for their country).
One method of taking out the O2 stuff (without having to reflash) to relieve more memory would be to cancel the installation after a hard reset. It is a bit tedious since the installs are somewhat fast and at times you might cancel the installation of an important program!
Plus, our ExtROM also has the keys and screen locked during installation.
On the other hand you can modify your ExtROM to not install the O2 stuff. That would need a cradle (as far as I have experienced).
Keep reading the forums out there to check if you really want to change your ROM or not.
And if you do want to change your ROM, I also learned from these forums how to do it. Also, one poster gave a website that has it as a step by step. It's not anymore updated (the thread) but is still very useful.
On my next post I'll answer your next questions as long as I am sure of the answers...

Answers to questions:
1. As far as I have learned, the camera fix is a CAB installer inside the ExtROM. More like a patch installer. A new ROM isn't needed unless you want the patch to automatically install after a hard reset.
A copy of the CAB file is just what you need.
If you're thinking of grabbing the camera patch posted here, you'll need to open up the ExtROM file (uploaded here) to get it.
2. I haven't used IR yet but I have had a VERY SLOW experience with it. It took me 20+minutes to receive a 1MB file. (haven't checked my settings, it might have caused the slow transfer)
The ROM upgrades are approx. 50MB total.
From my point of view it's better to go for the cradle.
3. There is the ebay philippines website. Although the cradle doesn't get sold separately there.
As for international ebay, you do shoulder the cost of shipping and would also pay additional if customs over here categorized it as taxable goods.
Try checking out Brightpoint at Araneta Mall sometime, they might have the cradle there as a separate item.
Goodluck and don't forget to backup your old ROM before upgrading!
wow thanks a lot JP2005. that was very informative. yep i heard about brightpoint too. actually i have been there i think last year. my phone came from japan but it is in english. after reading your post i have changed my mind regarding upgrading the rom for the moment, maybe in the future but not now.
i am also interested at this cab file installer for the camera to somehow make it look a bit presentable, if you can fill me in the details or anybody around here to show me some links to it that would be much appreciated. anyways i have printed out the instructions i thought might came handy to me regarding guides. thanks you again good day
can any good soul upload an asian rom [factory default] .nbf file to the server? you know the file being used to backed up in the memory card. thanks
also if i just run the cab files inside the zips of the rom upgrade, will it work or crash? for example the camera fix?

I've managed to backup the original ROM sold for the Philippines via the SD card backup.
Unfortunately, it takes the same space as the capacity of the SD card used.
I used the 128MB SD card and have backed up 128MB of ROM data (not the actual size but it uses the whole card).
I'll try to upload it via the download service websites when I have the time. Will PM you or post in this thread the link.
Also, as far as I know you can only flash this file via SD card and bootloader mode.
The necessary programs and instructions I'll try to pack in within an archive file so you don't have to look around for it.
thank you so very much. you just made a pinoy happy
Sorry for late reply...
Here's the link:

Good luck with your upgrades!
does running the camera patch.cab file alone damages the OS of a pocket PC?

I don't think the camera patch will affect the OS...
The deepest it can tamper is the registry (as far as I know). It creates the required parameters for the camera to operate.
So I think the camera patch will probably do some fixes to the camera (prog) registry...
thanks for the reply. but you are still not very sure about this yet? i am planning on extracting the camera fix from Pugs rom and running it as a cab file fom the ppc. i am still trying to know if my proceedure will work or fail

This probably won't hurt the system...
I've tried PUG's ROM (the whole package) and my Alpine didn't go haywire.
Everything was fine but I kinda missed the rotatescreen icon and didn't know how to let it show via registry edit...
So I went and restored the original ROM and just upgraded the Radio from PUG's ROM and cooked my own Ext_ROM.
you just run the .cab file of the radio? if so that answers question of running these fixes while everything is installed

nope, the radio is flashed...
I just renamed the ms_.nbf and nk.nbf files so they won't flash together with the radio...
thanks a bunch. it clears up everything.
i guess after i do the radio then i have to get sun/globe/smart configs too since they have UK once and that doesn't include our telcos.

Hey everyone ..
i was using my Blueangel normaly and so happy with it until i faced this problem before 2 days ..
I was texting my gf while i was out and kept on even though the battry gave me a warrny that its really low .. i ignored and kept SMS's her until it went off.
i went home charged my device but its not connecting to the network. it shows either "No Service" (where it shows X beside the signal tower) or "Searching" (where it shows ! beside the signal tower).
Please anyone knows how to turn it on im really in a bad situation here.
Note: just to let you know im using WM5 Hemi's rom and upgraded it today to Xplode's rom just hoping it would help.
Well when i tried another sim on my blueangel it worked and my sim card on another mobile it worked also. im really losing my brain
44 views no one have a slight idea..
anyways thanks alot everyone for visiting
Hi,
All I can suggest is to re-install radio rom! prob 1.15.
If not that then ensure flight mode is NOT active, and battery's fully charged
Also when you reset BA, on first screen does the R show a none?
If so reset, twice, its a common problem with BA and WM5, it isn't able to intialise the radio rom before WM5 boots.
It seems wierd that another sim worked on your BA, must be a faulty/damaged sim.
I also note you've tried the non-working sim on another phone and that works! Wierd that too!
Hope that helps,
Sunny
Have you tried to manually select the network in the "Phone" settings screen? I've heard of similiar problems being fixed by that.
well after i asked here and there and got disappointed with I-Mate people.. they know nothing at all
an IT in my company told me the problem is with my sim card. its damaged cause of the change in the battry power (as he says) it damaged the frequency that my mobile use to read the sim so there for it would work on any mobile except mine.
so i would change the sim but it needs me ages to get free and do that.
THANKS ALOT TO EVERYONE ATLEAST READ MY THREAD OR TRIED TO HELP
YOU GUYS HERE ARE THE BEST
By the way
sunny: the Radio is already 1.15 from ages. but thanks alot for trying to help me.
Fraser: I tried to manualy select the network but it says there is no network which is funny cause there is 4 networks in my area.. actuly im working with the same operator so im inside the tower LOL. the signal streth is the best here.
Thanks alot mates
No problem!
Thats what we're here for!

Same problem
I once had the same problem. Now I'm no genius when it comes to these phones and it actually took me a whole week to get an idea of what the hell happened to my phone. Basically, these phones are Quad Band (GSM 850/900/1800/1900) and for some reason after I upgraded I lost my signal. I found a little application that let me reselect my band (its not built into windows for some reason) and that solved my problem. I just selected "Auto select" and the problem was solved after a soft reset.
Now, I can not remember what that application was but maybe that can give you an idea of what to search for.
No Service issue

Hi,
.......
Also when you reset BA, on first screen does the R show a none?
If so reset, twice, its a common problem with BA and WM5, it isn't able to intialise the radio rom before WM5 boots.
...........
Hope that helps,
Sunny

Hi, is there more 'democratic' way to resolve this issue than reseting BA twice?
After installation of xplode's R4 for noobs an old version of R 1.06 was left on BA. Thinking that this was a reason for No Service of the phone I dumped latest R , but double f..reseting necessity still persists ...
Is that a normal thing to reset twice such an advanced device when you want even just to call smbdy? Thanks
there is a lil bug in my roms, after totally draining both bateries when you power it on it says NONE for radio you have to soft reset it again in order to work. I have never had a band selection problem but it is possible reason for this

Hi hi there! First of all please accept my deepest appreciation for such a great work you have done to make us - PPC ordinary users - little bit more happy Just one small note - is it possible to upgrade your downlodable R4 file with all necessary ROMs - Radio, etc., etc. With the intention that every Noob trying to upgrade his/her BA, should do it in a push of one button - not searching for separate latest ROMs and HowTo instructions? Thanks for your time!
P.s. Sorry it seems came out little bit off topic....
well it is possible but i have no time to do it. or you can try to copy the radio nbf file into the folder of the nk.nbf and run the upgrade utility
Any solution on this matter ? I am using Helmi MW6 ROM with radio 1.15.00 and i'm having the same problem.
I've searched the forum but found no solution yet.
