do we have a ROM in the ftp that i can flush to?

do we have a ROM in the ftp that i can flush to? thats working? just wondered if that could fix my storage folder missing problem.
a link to the directory would do it. thanks in advance!

we have lots, check wiki

i mean is with an SD Card..the following doesnt work:
O2 Asia xdaiisradio10200.zip
O2 Asia xdaiiscerom11262.zip
XDA 2s HK Eng 1.31

Would answer the question then of why they were never posted in wiki!
The radio 1.10.00 you can install as per wiki
Extneded roms you can get all applications and patches form those roms that have been cooked of wiki
The operator customization is in the kitchen on wiki
As for the 02 asian rom, well nobody has uploaded a ship.exe

that was quick.
thanks for the fast reply MDAIIIUser!
last question MDAIIIUser..do we have a solution for my Storage folder missing problem?(please!) this the problem why i wanna try to flash a ROM with an SD Card..

I dont like flashing from sd, to much work!
I still think the i-mate 162 rom of wiki is good, used it untill I had to reflash my device with all the passed Type I and Type II versions on wiki.
Then went with the 1.31 arabic and cooked my exteneded rom, added the 1.10 radio and the BT 3900.
Both of these roms work with the old tool.

ive almost tried all the ROM on the ftp..but still Storage Folder disappears after my first reset. ow yea on the my first boot i can see the storage folder and on the settings in memory i can also see the storage..its full..i guess thats one of the reason why im having this problem. any suggestions on why did this happend and afcorse a solution on how to fix this would be the nice.
thanks again MDAIIIUser!

Hmmm...first time I see this problem...
What is in the Storage Folder?

ow yea also the Extended_ROM doesnt load(ive tried all the unlock cabs doesnt work..and also flash manager errors! task manager error connection manager error all of the permanent save options..i guess cause windows cant save it or find the Storage Folder..and after first soft reset as ive said it disappears..
please anybody..there must be a solution on this?!

Looks like something is seriously messed up.
I suggest as a last resort to reinstall a complete new SHIP ROM that is closest to your original configuration...you can always upgrade later.
Look here to find the version you want and download it:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
Upload the ROM to your PDA in the cradle, not via SD card. Hard reset and tell us if that is better...?

i have this problem for a long time now..so thats why ive almost tried all of them..can you imagine how much this problem is really been a pain for me? DAMN!
ow yea in order for my IIs to work..i figure the reason why i always hang is because some folders are missing..like the extended_ROM and storage folder so i made a folder with the same FileName..after ive created the Folders it almost instantly stabled(doesnt lag when i press a button or somthin) and files already in them. like on the Storage folder the PerSaveBackup Folder is instantly created.
so i guess my problem is why is it when i hardreset some folders that are really important for windows to function are missing on my phone? how can this happen?

Dead Xda IIS

Guys, i need some help. Recently i came across the rom update for my xda iis, so i decide to take it out of my drawer and see if i can update it with HELMI_BA_WM6_R0_Public. I followed all the steps and try to upgrade it, after i click on HELMI_BA_WM6_R0_.exe, my xda iis restart on cradle and after that nothing happen. I notice it only appear on the top with the word "serial" and the bottom "v2.06". I have tried in vain to get it working again, please try to help as im very new to this. Im using window Vista.

since apparently, you are not that experienced in flashing your device, i would recommend you use windows xp to flash your device.
then you have a look at this wiki wizard:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade1_WM2003SE0
this is a step by step instruction on how to upgrade from wm2003 to wm6.
please follow it precisely, even if you don't see a point in certain steps, they are all important!!!
if you, however, don't understand a step or a phrase, feel free to re-post, and i will explain it to you in more detail.
have fun with the upgrading, one word of advise: take your time, the first upgrade with storage resize radio upgrade, sim unlock and other stuff can last an hour or two (not the upgrade itself, but the process you go through). when you remember the steps and feel like you want a different rom, after testing this one, all you have to do is donload a "nk.nbf" file and flash it, and the entire update takes you 5 minutes then

Hi Chef_tony, thanks for the reply. I went to the link u gave me and from the 1st step on im stuck. It ask me to download both the unlocker and Repart and place it on the phone, but i cant do anything with the phone except for the "Serial" on top and "V2.06" below, it does change to "usb" when i cradle it. please help. thanks again

ok, then at that point you are stuck in boot loader, that happened to me too.
the reason for that might not be that interesting to you now, but it is because vista in the middle of the flashing process vista thinks it needs new drivers, downloads them and then it disconnects the device, something that shouldn't be done while flashing, as everyone knows.
these wiki links explain how to flash from vista using modified drivers, but i wanna tell you in advance, that i personally never got it running, i always use a windows xp machine:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade4_Vista
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade4_Vista_Pic
so, still i want to state that the best way to flash is a xp computer, if you have access to one, use that to flash your original shipped rom first, to resize the storage (first wizard step) afterwards.
theoretically, a virtual machine, running xp would also work, if you still have an xp cd lying around, you can download virtual pc 2007 from microsoft, it is free and you just need a short time to set up a virtual xp machine, because i can guarantee you, you will flash more than one rom, once you started on the topic.
remember, you need to flash your shiped rom, then you want to flash the helmi rom, then maybe a rom update and probably you are not staying with that rom forever, since it is wm6, there is also wm6.1 and wm6.5 to follow that.
what i want to say is:
- try the flashing with vista option described in the wiki links above
- if that doesn't work, try to get to an xp computer and follow the steps
- flash your original shipped rom first
- then the wiki wizard steps in again

Problem is solve, thank you so much chef_tony. my next question is...where can i get wm6.1 rom as all the link i had is dead

according to another user, this thread's links are still working:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403421
but it does not contain office. (you can still try other office download links, if you need it)
just by the tiny size of the extrom i would say there is hardly anything contained, but anyway, that is a rom i used too, and it is quite nice, also look up IOLITE stuff in this forum for extra apps.
make sure to repost if everything went to plan

I found a working wm6.1 pro on another website and its working great! It contain office as well. Thing now is i didnt adjust the memory and i didnt have enough space to install every software that i had
This is the link http://www.4shared.com/file/66810499/8a61be24/HTC-BA5220758WWE_v302_25M_PP-16M_RAMdisk_a.html?s=1
By the way chef_tony, you happen to have any idea how to open up BA, cause i would love to clean it up on the inside.

1. the thing is, the storage resize is important for 2 reasons:
- sure, with the resize you woulld have 16mb more storage memory for installing programs and storing stuff
- you still have your original extrom on the device, which is not compatible with newer roms, meaning, instead of simply copying the extrom to an sd card to have a basic setup and installing programs you need to install cabs manually
which is why i said to follow the steps precisely, now you have 16mb of space you simply can't access from wm6 at all, and for a resize you'd have to go back to wm2003 first but give your rom a try first, maybe it is not the perfect one for you after all, then you still have the opportunity to re-flash.
2. i am glad you found a valid link, many people post their roms to hosters that take it down after a while, expecially when there are no more downloads of that item, and so, many links posted here half a year ago are not working anymore, which is sad, since there are still a lot of people, including you, that would like to go to wm5, wm6 or wm6.1 and not just the newest wm6.5 builds, but, whatever, you found your rom and hopefully kept the files stored on your pc for future reflashing...
3. there are two basic disassembling guides for the BA:
- the official service manual (also good for repairs, since they explain each step):
http://www.4pda-service.ru/netcat_f.../BLUE ANGEL/HTC_Blue_Angel_Service_manual.pdf
- the manual made by a forum user:
http://www.land-of-kain.de/ppc/mda3/disassembly/
i am glad it all worked out for you so far and you will realize that this old device has a lot of potential, when you keep it up to date (and clean ).

Thanks you so much for the help. I'll try to update if the link is dead someday, by the way..i have 43mb storage and 84mb programme, is that good or bad?

the program memory is normal, but the storage should be 16 mb more, so instead of 43.XX you would have 60.30mb.
that is the extrom resize mentioned before.
- you need to flash your original rom for that
- then copy the "xda-developers unlocker" and the "repart_doc.exe" to your device. (attached below)
- you install the extrom unlocker
- then you go to start menu and extrom unlocker
- you execute "unhide"
- then unlock
- then start the repart_doc and set the size to 128kb
then you can lock the extrom and hide it again.
maybe in that process there is a soft reset required, i don't remember.
the reason why you do all that is because the extrom memory is hidden and locked and contains a bunch of cabs, that install automatically, when you hard reset the device.
so after that, you can reflash your wm6 rom, and you'll see, that after you resized and formatted that space, your memory dialogue will show 60.30mb of storage memory (plus it gives you the opportunity to install wm6 extroms from the sd card).

Linux on Blue Angel

Hi folks
I Just found a dusted "Blue Angel" Device in the cupboard, that I always wanted to use with Linux but had already given up some time ago.
Now, before selling it off at ebay, I wanted to give it another try and was delighted to see the "idiots guide" on this wiki page:
[xda-developers wiki ]BlueAngel_Linux
What happened so far:
I go to buy a SD-Card of 2GB (couldn't get a smaller one at my local store), put the image on it and give it a try.
It boots and brings up a familiar login prompt.
I login with root/rootme and get: "can't access tty; job control turned off" and a shell prompt.
The keyboard only works partially (only letters, no punctuation) so i can't even type "cd.." to navigate
Googling and looking at some (wiki-)pages here, at handhelds.org and linuxtogo.org didn't help me any further yet.
My Questions:
Did I do something wrong up to here?
What to do to make the keyboard working (did I mention it's a german Device?)
Can I launch some kind of GUI at this point (heck I don't even know if the Image contained GPE or OPIE ;-) ) or is the "can't access tty.." a problem i have to fix first?
Is there a more up to date image (to fix the keyboard-issue) I can use with the idiots guide or some evenly up to date documentation out there? I'm a regular Linux-User on the desktop and not afraid of the command-line?
Device Info:
Model No: PH20B
ROM Version: 1.22.01 GER
ExtROM-Version: 1.22.182 GER
Radio Version 1.06.00
I hope someone can help me on this before I go the ebay path
Greetings from .de

I have QTopiaII working on my BA, the instructions are a bit scattered and kinda confusing (and very, very outdated), but you should be able to run it without having to input any code into the HaRet prompt. It should do everything by itself. If I can, I will upload the contents of my SD later today so that you can try to d/l directly onto your card.
It could also be that you are running an older version of HaRet...

That would be great for a test-run! Thanx in advance I think a gzipped (iso?) image file would do it, I'll transfer that to the SD using dd.

I must admit that I don't really unterstand the HaRET magic yet. Didn't find any documentation until now.
Can you point me to some usable Documentation for my project? At the moment I'm interested in:
- HaRET (how to configure and use it, up-to-date downloads)
- How to build a SD-Image by yourself (I stepped on something similar at handhelds.org but that seemed really outdated.)
- Any info readable by a non-developing but willing to learn human
Thanks again, Markus

qtopia
i have tried qtopia in my BA if u run the HaRET it will generate a img file in u r sd card it is about 200 mb why dont u try to copy img file to the sd card

I don't know much about HaReT myself, but I do know that you have to have the right parameters on the default.txt (or config file) otherwise, the thing will either crash or not boot (and this is where it can get tricky).
As far as the SD image, I was trying to get something to make an image of an SD not too long ago and I found a program called Winhex, which can make images of sd cards. However, you need to get the full version to be able to mount the image on a card. You mentioned something else in your post. Are you using a different program for SD images? I would love to know about this program if you have one.
I haven't forgotten about the things on the SD card, I will post them (SD image is not necessary though) but I just haven't had the time.

-go to: http://www.linuxtogo.org/~htcpxa/htcblueangel/Qtopia/
-download Qtopia-Linux-htcblueangel.exe and QtopiaPhone-image.rootfs.tar.bz2
-copy them to sd card, make sure you have at least 200-300 mb free
-start Qtopia-Linux-htcblueangel.exe,for the first time it will generate a 200 mb root file, so it could take a while
-next time you boot in qtopia it is much faster.
ps: you dont have to edit text files in this case.
ps2: also on irc-freenode there are developers who managed to install even ubuntu on there phones

[Q] Please advise. Cannot install NETCF v35..

I have the Manila Maxsense 2.5 UI on my tp2. I just updated it to the latest sense 2.5 for September 4. I cannot get the net compact frame v35 to install after I install sense 2.5. It is telling me:
'A later version of the .NET Compact Framework is already installed. If you want to install this version, first remove the existing version.'
Can someone tell me how to do this. It is not in the remove programs in settings folder. I had my sense 2.5 up and working along with the android project software on the sd card. I decided it might be a good idea to save all my settings to restore phone, program, icon etc., then hard reset the phone. Along with this I reformatted my sd card (8gb) with fat 32. Then placed the phone settings restore files back onto th sd card. Now I can't install the dual boot with the android software.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance to whomever can help.
I have searched this forum up and down, along with google for a day and a half for a solution to this problem.
Thanks,
Paul H

What ROM?
Is there any reason to believe that the latest version of .NETCF is not already installed?

it should also ask you "do you want to uninstall current version of net compact"
(usually it does) press yes and you are good to go.

(I need to install the: (NETCFv35.wm.armv4i)....
(Energy.RHODIUM.24631.Sense2.5.MaxSense.Sep.04) - ROM.
This is what I want to figure out. If the ROM already has it.
When I try to install it, I get that message"
('A later version of the .NET Compact Framework is already installed. If you want to install this version, first remove the existing version.')
I understand that when you install a regular application for the TP2, it will ask you if you want to uninstall it before it installs the new app. Then it simply installs.
This doesn't give me that choice. It is basically telling me to uninstall something that isn't there; at least on my SD card. I save all cab files to a folder on the SD card. Only applications that are ROM critical are installed in the phones main memory. Now, when I try to open the file: (GenY-DualBOOT-v1.0.6.0-CAB) to attempt to boot up: (ProjectAndroid2.2BLAZN.083010), the Dual Boot file will not install. It says that I need to install the: (NETCFv35.wm.armv4i) file. I can't find another copy of a compact framework file anywhere to uninstall. I had this same, new Sept. 4 ROM installed yesterday along with android and they worked pretty awesome together, in my opinion. Maybe I should just post this in the android forum. I just don't want to piss people off by posting something that has already been posted, and in which I searched XDA website and can't find any solutions.
Once I get this up and going I am going to start making donations for the ROM makers and android project!
Oh, and I do understand the android is not a full ROM. I just want to get them to load up fine.
Thanks for anyone's help!

Pretty sure the Energy ROMs have the latest version cooked in.

Yea, that is what I'm pretty sure of. But why will the dual boot not install? I do think it is burned into the ROM also. That's why I am puzzled.

you already have the latest version of netframework cooked in your rom.
you can always install a small program called netcfg to make sure which version of net cf you are using.

Hay 'the show stopper', that helped a lot! This was a utility was the foremost resolution to the conflicts I was/am having! I finally got the android back up and running, and so far I have been able to run android just fine. I am going to keep on researching the the xandroid software as it is being updated!

android cannot work, double virbrate then freeze

Hi guys,
I got stuck on this situation for many days. I also saw some people also had the same problem. But seem that still no solution.
I downloaded the lastest XDAndroid (FRX06 25/03/2011), do exactly like tutorial, copy startup.txt to root, then run haret.exe. But there's a board of Booting Linux appeared, it finished in some seconds, then double vibrate and mobile freeze (without any code line or something like that).
Please need help asap.
Thanks!
