hey! my mother got a O2 XDA(1) from o2. we bought the device from ebay, so dont think, we ripped it some guy off :).
the xda was working perfectly without any problem, till the last 3 days.
after i found out my mother didnt ever used active-sync, i nearly thought all her 300 contacts in this thingy were lost .... the xda showed sporadic flashing of backlight (1sec) and was actually very slow in the menu. it needed 3-5 secs to open start=>programs. i finally made it (after 5 trys) to do a SD-Backup!!!!!1111 :D the created file is about 6.2megs big.
a) is this file loaded full of the contacts + reminds of my mother?
b) any cool prog, i can extract the stuff? (even a img where i can prt-screen to just write em down would be enough for me / export to .txt would be the best :) )
at the moment the device wasnt booting anymore. in the evening it was booting (wallaby bootloader 5.2x i think it was) with an GSM Error. i googled a bit about it and i think the radio stack is broken on my device.
c) is there any way to burn the bootloader back to 5.15 to try a SD-recovery?
d) any other hints that might work to bring the phone back up?
e) "could" it be possible, to disable the radio-part on bootup to access the pda-part at least to retry a active-sync?
some specs i found inside the xda in the working days (2 weeks old now //i was looking for a FW-update, but never found one) :
softwareversion o2v2r4.3
romversion 3.19.01ger - 27.5.03
radioversion 4.21
protokoll 32s54
imei 35031201xxxxxxx
xda modellnr. pw10a1
microsoft pocket pc 3.1.12039(build 11178)
the device is locked to o2-network, but that shouldnt be a problem for my mother or me, we're both at o2.
perhaps someone could help me with my 5 lil questions (a-e) ?? :)
TY!!! john
