G: None, r: None - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hello dear XDA members,
after flashing a WM6.x to my blue angel I sometimes get the following boot error:
R NONE
G NONE
D WM6.x
However, when I remove the battery long enough for the reserve battery to get empty (say, over night), then everything seems to be okay on the next boot and I get what I normally should:
R 1.13.00
G 1337.42
D WM6.x
I have now had this error on 3 different devices using 3 different windows mobile ROMs (all from d-two, 2 german ones and one wwe). It doesn't occur always, but in round about 75% of bootups.
Does anyone know something about this?

that is a common error that happens with all cooked roms.
while running wm2003, pressing reset or removing the battery for a second was basicly the same: it did a soft reset.
but on cooked roms there is a significant difference, while resetting using the proper pin performs an actual soft reset, removing the battery causes the device to boot without radio, which in most roms means, not boot at all. whenever you see R:NONE while booting, just press reset and let it boot again, that time it should show the numbers.

So far working perfect.
Thank you very much.

Nice post, Bosjo....great idea....now let's hope people read this, so I can stop referring to the links in my signature...!
bosjo, add the new 1.40 Tutorial I added to wiki, it makes the seperate Bluetooth and Radio ones obsolete (largely) as 1.40 include 1.12.00 and 1.0.0.3900
The noob finally did it
I want to thank Brazillian Joefor helping me out with my ineptness to READ THE WHOLE WIKI first- I finally upgraded to WM2k5 flawlessly after nearly 6 hours and despite sctatching a bald spot into my head everything is great.
I also want to thank Helmi and everyone else that made this all possible this site is a real asset keep up the great work.

Used the unlock on 12/07/2006 on referenced Cingular phone purchased somewhere around April 2005. Worked like a charm, phone now works great on T-Mobile.
I failed to download MaUpgradeUt_noID file from the ftp site for resolving the country code error problem. For tha I am requesting you please upload the file in rapidshare.com (or arrange to upload).
It will be a great help for me.
Thanks
I installed WM6 with a simple PIN last night. This morning I switched SIMs and when switching on I entered the normal PIN and it says "incorrect password".
I haven't changing the PIN and it worked last night. Of course now it goes into longer and longer gaps before you can do anything! and now i must wait for 34minutes before i can try my "lucky" PIN..
No problem I thought, I'll just do a hard reset... but BIG problem. It appears that WM6 won't let you do a hard reset from the unlock screen.
Does anyone know if they have changed the hard reset procedure in WM6?
From the device being powered on I am pressing an holding the power button, pressing the reset and then letting both go simultaneously - is this correct?
It is nice to know if someone steals your 'phone that they can't use it - not at all good when a bug in WM6 makes it happen to the owner!
I have a completely useless brick at the moment...
need your help guys..
Links for wiki don't work, any idea where to get these info from?
in the top bar there is also a link to the wiki, or take this one: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/

turning off alone.
I upgraded my BA to d-two's WM6.5.5 Build 23529, and now when the battery is on 30%, he turn of or reset and keep doing aftera a while when i turn on again. Chief tony, you know this error?
you should always make sure that your battery is completely full when upgrading. there's been people before, reporting that their battery meter is screwed up after upgrading. so, i guess the 30% are just not an accurate value and the battery is in fact empty. you should load up the battery up to 100% and re-flash the rom. the values will be more accurate
then.
another reason could be that your battery is really starting to go bad and maybe should be replaced.
Hi Chief
Hey chief tony, i reflashed my BA with full charge, and instaled the Wm 6.1 manilla 2d final from D-two, and i've got what realy happens, everytime i used the wifi conection, is doesnt take long and Ba turn of, and when i turn on where it must have the radio version, it appears 'none', so i soft reset and gets ok. you know whats happening?
ps: sorry for the bad english
the fact, that it turns off quickly again, points to the battery having lost most of its capacity. maybe you should have a look at ebay for a replacement.
it shows R NONE G NONE, because unplanned switch-offs or soft resets, that are not triggered by the reset pin cause the phone to boot without radio, some roms start without the radio then, some don't boot at all. it happens with all custom roms and soft resetting is the only way to avoid it.

I wouldn't blame the battery so fast on this one (although entirely possible). There are a few roms (not sure about d-two's 6.1 since I have not tried it) that will become unresponsive once you activate Wifi (not sure why), and eventually resets the device... He could try a different rom and see if that helps.
Hi,
I am trying to get the "For Sim(Un)Lock tool GO" but when I click on GO it returns "No input file specified."
Any other links that I can get this tool to unlock my Blue Angel...

this tutorial is quite outdated, the one linked in my signature is new and all links are working there. in the 2nd post, you will find the tool needed for the sim unlock and many more
Re-detecting my 1gb sd card!
Hi, Chef.
I initially had some issues with my 1gb sd card after upgrading to m 6.1 & then 6.5.3. But, after a vista laptop detected an removed a virus (autorun file), I was able to access again.
Now, after upgrading using sun dream's latest rom (6.5.5), my sd-card issue has re-appeared. I have just formatted the card (tried either fat or fat32) and still no progress.
Other Issues: Activisync's complaint about my having to increase the size of my mailbox & delete one or two other files is becoming too frequent.
my ba now trips up (or shuts down completely) when d battery is around 50%.
What next?

What Rom do you have?
ROM: sun_dream's WM6.5.5 Build 23569 CHS WWE
Radio: 1.15

R NONE??

R NONE
G NONE
D 5.03.02 WWE
Sometimes when I restart my BA I get the weird R NONE version number... The phone module does not work until I keep hitting the reset button a couple of times till it shows a regular version... Any ideas why does it happen?
Another thing is that this morning my RADIO unit did not work at all - 'Phone not ready, please wait 15 seconds and try again' Windows said. When I enabled WiFi - the unit died, rebooted, died, rebooted, and so on (had to do the hard reset).
I have this problem only when i change sim card, and it fixes only with pushing the reset button with stylus, as fas as i know this problem can not be fixed. When i read your post your problem seems to be another one which i haven seen before, try to reflash your radio rom, this may help
I just did the upgrade - it works. For now, at least...

First off ... have the "R NONE / G NONE" appear after changing the SIM and/or battery is relatively common. My phone does the same thing.
This is due to the GSM radio taking longer to 'cold boot' than the bootloader is giving it time for. Simply let it get a few seconds into the boot (before it starts loading the OS & redraws the screen). Then, hit the 'reset' hole once ... and everything will boot fine from then on.
can somebody upload somewhere downloadable the new radio (1.15) cuz the ftp does not work at all

wm5 needing soft reset

Every time I change the battery on blueangel and start it up I find that the phone is off and that I have to soft reset to get it to work.
I installed wm5 quite a while back and have had this problem since the beginning. Is there a fix for this?
no, but is it so hard for you to perform soft reset ?
and one more question, how often you hange batteries every 5 minutes? (if i am correct i see why you are upset)
ridan: this is known problem: there is delay between RadioROM starting and initialisation of the device. There is only one fix: when device is booting for the first time, wait 5s (from the time you can see on the screen, that there is no information about radiorom version), then immediately make a soft reset, long before the device will finish booting: after this 2nd soft reset readio rom will boot and everything will work fine.
if you don't want to play like this, there is only one option (and there won't be other in the future): go back to WM2003.
xplode: It shouldn't really matter how often I change my battery as everyone who owns a BA knows that battery life is dependent on usage and can range from a couple of hours to a few days.
And it is not 'hard' to insert the stylus into the reset hole, but it is annoying to find that your phone has been off the whole day just because you forgot to wait 5secs and reset.
jakubd: I was going to change to a different rom, but as you say that its present on all wm5 roms I will ditch the idea. I may switch back to wm2k5 but I'm on the fence at the moment as to whether I will.
thanks for the reply jakubd.

No service, R & G : None

Hi,
I have update my blueangel from W2003 to WM6.
The first day, i have a phone probleme (R and G : NONE and an error in the phone : No service). After a soft reset, the problem disappeared.
But now, i always have the R and G at none and i have 'No service' in the phone function. the soft reset didn't change the config . So I cant' use my phone on the blueangel
My OS is 5.60 (5.2.1620 from Helmi) and the radio is 1.15.
Thanks for you help

xda iis upgrade to wm 6.1 explode
after upgrading to wm6.1 explode my xda iis has problem with the video cam...can't play after taking the video in the preview...help me....and the wlan is bad
it´s a problem with the camera app.
it crashed when you record movies in a special format. (i think it was .mpeg)
OK, having the same issue from time to time, and had it on other devices too...
Anyone any idea why it behaves like that?
I think (but not sure) it only happens when not using the 'normal' rom/boot loader... As far as I know (but that only stayed for an hour or so, just checking the basic functions) it didn't happen on the original rom...

Problem: Unresponsive, error on windows customisation, frequent reflashing required

I've been lurking on these forums since I got my diamond, about 5 months ago, and i would like to say, I would have sold my diamond about 2 weeks after buying it if it wasn't for all the knowledge and tools available here. Thank you.
Now, I've been flashing my phone every so often, with ROMs such as Swtos, Panosha, Duttys, AZTOR, Wildberry, Dia Diut, and most recently (wherein the problem lies), NATALY 2.1, Cloudy 1.0 and udK Syrius R3.
Now with these latest three roms (2.03?), i started to encounter a similar problem over and over again, without exception. If I try to launch a program while another is using the CPU, the phone will begin to crash. First it will become unresponsive, then programs will no longer open, and eventually, the only thing that can be done is a soft reset.
For example, the alarm will activate (klaxon), i'll flip the phone, and hit off. Now I know the problem has begun because though the phone has returned to the home screen, the title bar may still show the image from the alarm. Now the phone will work like its cpu is being heavily engaged and I can never reach task manager to see what it is. The hard volume keys frequently cause the phone to begin behaving in this manner. Soft reset only solution again. TF3D still animates, but programs will never appear on the screen if you try to launch them.
Same sort of effect on Cloudy's and udK's, except after the soft reset, the phone would begin to reinstall the rom again, as if some sort critical error occurred.
I have a DIAM130, and i've heard that to install 2.03 base ROMS (such as NATALY2.1 and Cloudy, is that correct?) you should first install a 2.03 SPL and a 2.03 stock ROM, then upgrade the SPL, then the ROM.
The latest SPL i've seen here is 1.93, and installing this increased the stability of these ROMs from 30 minutes to about 1-2 days, but the same problem occurs.
(also, haven't been able to find a stock 2.03 ROM on here... am I blind/illiterate?)
Latest addition to this problem (first occurred a few minutes ago after the phone began reflashing itself again after the aforementioned problem): Windows began the usual first-time boot customization procedure, and is now giving me an error: Run FILEOP \Windows\Menu_FILEOP_Operator.txt failed.
Is there some sort of corruption or hardware failure going on?
Well, thanks in advance
EDIT: Problem solved by reflashing stock SPL and 2.03 ROM, then flashing what I wanted. The impression i get from the pros here is that I flashed a ROM which wrote to some memory location that shouldn't have been written to.
