Hi to all,
some days ago I've posted searching a solution to a problem that many people have, the quick gps' failure to update.
I've tried all tips and tricks suggested here and in other forums because I don't want to do a hard reset, without lucky.
I want to try a last thing. IS there anyone thar can post as attachment his quickgps.exe file (obviously someone that has the quickgps going well ) ?
I want to try to overwrite my program file and see if something changes.
I've tried to delete it with TC but I'm not able to do it. So i'll try to overwrite it.
I have an italian rom (1.37) so quickgps coming from italian friends with italian rom are especially welcome
Thanks to all for the helps that can give me.
Dunno if you've tried this already, but when mine stops working I've found that if I run Internet Explorer and go to www.htc.com wait for it to load and then try again it will then load the quickGPS data.
Works everytime for me.
You're magic !!!!!
I had also read about open internet explorer first but it gave me error anyway.
But opening www.htc.com and then using quickgps it GOES !!!!
I don't know where you live but if it happens to you to be in Rome you have a beer payed
I had the same problem and it worked for me too. I couldn't use the youtube app or quick gps
now they both work
Thanks !!

Hello, my name is Kc and I'm new to these forums. I just purchased a Siemens SX66 on the Cingular network. I noticed that there is a ROM upgrade of version 1.40. I have looked around these forums for info but I'm not really familiar with the lingo so I'm not making much progress on my own. Can someone please help me to understand how to update my ROM for my SX66?
ROM Version: 1.32.10 WWE
ROM Date : 12/17/04
Radio Vr. : 1.02.10
Protocol Vr. : 1337.35
ExtROM Vr. : 1.32.115 WWE
Model # : PH20B1
Any help would be great, thank you much.
Read Wiki:

Use the first method.
Still a problem.
First off, thank you TheLastOne, but I'm still having a problem. I tried to install the new Dutch ROM but after I click the update it goes to the next screen telling me what version of stuff I have on my phone then it attempts the update, and then brings up a screen telling me that the country ID is wrong. Did I miss something? Also another question, my display seems to be a little wierd as of late, I have a black boarder around the entire display as if the OS isn't set for the right resolution. Is there a way to make it fit the whole screen?
Thanks again.

Figured it out.
Well after a few hours on my phone no longer working I really decided it was time to dig deep and figure it out on my own. I got it up and running with the new Dutch ROM and I'm really happy with it, especially the WiFi, it finds networks much faster now. I have a new question though. I don't use GPRS at all for connecting to the internet, and I have no connections set up. I just want to use WiFi, but I have the annoying 'G' symbol at the top of my PPC. Anyone know of a way for me to get rid of that? Thanks for making this site, and thanks to all the people who contribute. I'm a software developer and you can expect some releases for PPC now that I have one myself.
help with upgrade
its seem that you learn fast so please help me
i also own a cingular sx66 where can i download the dutch rom and how you skip the contry id problem many thank
Did you miss the 2nd post in this thread, seems to have worked for SmearedBlackInk
for mr nobody sunrise swiss
r u missing your mind in the second post it only 1.40 upgrade and not the dutch rom ?????????????
so next time check your post and dont be rude
israel
I'll try to explain
Well it's going to be hard to explain. I used a mix of method 1 and 2 on the page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_1.40.00_Upgrade
The ROM I used can be downloaded here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]_DT_WWE_DutchRetail_14000_556_11300_Ship.zip
I tried to use method 1 but it just kept giving me a country ID error, so I nuked my ROM, then tried to install using method 2, but it kept stoping halfway through. I mixed my files a bit and used method 1 and some files from method 2 to form a new install folder and voila it worked.
Wow, I just read that and it doesn't really help at all does it.
I think the real trick is just to wipe your ROM before installing. I'd back it up first though, because it's kind of scary when your phone just sits in serial or usb mode and that's it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
more help
first many thank for all the links
i change the deviceid=1 and pass the first rom but in the second he stuck
and still give me country error can u help me how u mix the two option
israel
Read wiki. Method one says to download the ROM you want, follow by MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP. Unzip MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP into your ROMs folder, and run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe twice and presto...
yop
yes its work many thank as it look a lot better on my first feeling the
wi-fi improve and also the radio bt
hope some more improvement will come in
Can't download MaUpgradeUt_noID.ZIP
broken link???
Sorry my powers are failing me, did you have a link in mind or was this a general why does not somebody search the whole of the site (as in all posts as well as the ftp site and wiki) to work out which link to that file does not work.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip
broken link???
Well not for me, link works fine, opens up a save file dialog.
I get connection refused whilst trying to connect to....
Unplugged router, connected pc directly to modem, worked fine then!
How are you doing this?
Are you in a ftp program and if so have you logged on with the correct user/pwd.
Are you just clicking the link and you firewall software is refusing the download?
Its a problem on your side, the link works fine for me, as is, as posted by you.
PS do you need an answer in the other thread as well?
After succesful upgrading to WM2005, I tried to install the 2 arabic files extracted from EXT ROM (which I think are responsible for Arabizing) "Default_AACERT_arabizer.CAB" and "Default_ACERT2_arabizer.CAB". After installation and softresetting, the device acts wierdly, and.... There is NO Possible Way to get it running again without getting into "Bootloader Mode". Did any one manage to do that? and I couldn't get into the xetended ROM of WM2005....did any one succeed?
you cannot use any existing localization packs on WM5
well it workedfor me on himalaya

Dear friends,

I wrote an email to imaginet one month ago, they replied " we are trying hard to upgrade and soon you will have an upgrade"...I don’t know what it means by soon...months or years???????????....since they never upgrade after 2003... :twisted: :evil:

Check this link. There's a detailed explanation on how to do it. However, some claim that it didn't work for them. Good luck.

Can you explain what is "nothing"? I did it my self last night and it worked. The only drawback is there is no Arabic keyboard. However, they clain that if install that dictionary..it works. I'll have to try it.
Arabizing is possible with wm5 and blue angel
I can arabize my xda iis with the following programs in wm5 (maimach patched rom) if you use the standard rom it locks the blue angel...you must extract this paste the nb file to ph20b if you have xda iis, if u have a siemens it is the other folder..reflash the rom:
imaginet Dictionary working
Imaginet reader working
Arabizer 1.3 working and stable
sidenote:
imaginet handwriting reader working well in 2003se. Works in 2005 however when the mobile goes into standby mode if unused say for 5 minutes pressing the power button will not open the blacklight, only a reset resolves this. In the end this is the only one i have not got working yet.
Finally, make backups every step of way with a program like sunnysoft 3.3 or above, unlike sprite this is compatable with wm5.
Dear friends, I am still trying to install properly arabizer on wm05.
I couldn’t install Arabic –English dictionary and prayer timings.
If you install above mentioned files without AR-Eng dictionary, Arabic key board will not install, but if you get file from following link, named “United Arabic Cab.rar, its worked fine for me and I was able to get Arabic key board without installing ar-eng dictionary. hoping it will be helpfull for you.

hi there,
i'm also quite a newbie too, and i recently created a modified rom using Bal666's cool utility. i think i understand your problem with being unable to use the screen after a hard reset.
The problem is that the config.txt file runs a program called "tpdisable.exe" before installing the .cab files, to prevent users interfering with the install process. Simply delete this entry from config.txt in your extended rom image and burn again!
hope this helps!
thanx i will try and post u how it goes

PC crashed while updating ROM
does this make any difference - i've re-booted my laptop and am currently sat on the checking device info screen, how long does it take to check as its been a good 30 mins now..
any help appreciated
Put your device into bootloader mode before you try updating it, it might work a little better.
Remove the entries for tpenable and tpdisable from the config file and the rom itself.
If you want to stop those "This program is designed for...." screens, download WinCE CAB Manager and change the min and max OS versions to 4.21 and 5 respectively on the cabs you are putting into your extended rom.
Good luck.
HI pug thanks for reply, I have a question here...
When installing programs from ROM, some programs may need pressing "OK" to continue. Is there anyway this can be done automatically or can anything be changed in the cab file so we can stop that screen from comming up????
Any help apperciated.
Thanx in advance
Sorry PUG i think u already answered my question SORRY
changing the min and max os ver. with wince cab manager didn't work.probably b'coz the os detect the source build in version, not the cab version.

Well, same here, QuickGPS had never downloaded anything
Yesterday with T-Mobile Firmware all ok.
Today with Bepe Rom not download.
Firmware Problem ??
I have import my settings for Quickgps from org. Rom, nothing.
thx Menkul
The file is Xtra.bin.
Edit of registry follow by a soft reset doesn't works. So it should be something else.
HTC support suggested for the device to be hard reset , which did solve the problem. They did mention (under Activity ID 08SGCW28ENA000101) that they will feedback this problem back to their Technique Department.
But, it may be possible to manually download the Xtra.bin file manually, and then change the time stamp in the registry. If this hypothesis works, do post back.
Cheers.
Hi all,
I've got a problem, I have installed a demo version of a language learn app which is on a flash basis, at least it says on the homepage that the Flash player 6 or 7 is required.
Now my problem is that when I open the app (an .exe file) it appears to be too big for the diamond screen, there is now way one can zoom out or do any fit to screen settings, I have tried every setting the flash player offers.
I have read the flash wiki and spent about 2 hours googling and searching the forum, usually this solved all my problems but I just dont seem to find any solution for this specific problem.
I have no idea if this is flash / Diamond or software related. Would one of you please have a look at the app and check if he/she has the same problem?
The homepage is: http://pda.hantrainerpro.com/normal_index.htm and I have downloaded the file for wm5 devices.
I have tried FP6, then FP7 after uninstalling FP6 before installing, installing FP7 before uninstalling FP6 (as described on the page above) and FP7 plus smartFlash but nothing helped.
I use a stock German ROM 1.37 and have not "installed" and Hard SPL version.
Thanks for your comments!
bump
sorry to bump this, but this evolved to a major problem and I cant find a solution...
BTW, can anyone open .swf files?
when trying with opera mobile it always asks if I want to download that .swf file but I belive it should rather start running, right?
Thanks in advance for any comment!
