hi

I have downloaded the wm2003se from lumpinstefan and i could change the rom of my pocket pc to that version by using ActiveSync.

Now i downloaded another version of the rom and i tried to install it on my Qtek 1010 (Wallaby) and it in the black window on my computer appears:

"ERROR: GetConnectionType - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the rem
ote host.

error getting connectiontype"

When i press the next button in the setup it says " cannot execute the remote communication prgram. please make sure that USB/Serial is properly connected". and the setup shuts down.

i Need You to know that before the new rom i downloaded from lumpistefan i was using pocket pc 2002 on my pocket pc.

Now it's clear that there is some problems in the connection. i tried it on several computers but i faced the same problem. is there any setting on my pocket pc to change??

Please somebody helps me i really need to know how to solve the problem.


Regards, and thank you.

Try searching the forum.

Itīs an old problem copncerning to some T-Mobile ROMs

You have to flash your device via SD-Card....

Try also some looking in the wiki. The process how to flash vi SD-Card is there described...

And please do not post multiple threads with the same topic....

Yeah I am having the same problem after installing the T-Mobile ROM, the same communication error when I try and change the installed ROM Image.

I did think it was something wrong with ActiveSync or my laptop :twisted:

Has anyone got any hints on how to do this on a Wannaby? (Saves me getting the wrong idea whilst reading through reams of text).

Many Thanks

I am abit of a newby to this site. I havent seen 2005 yet. Can I ask where I can find instructions for writing an SD card and how to apply to my PDA?

Ahh, I see from other threads, ROM Version 4.01.16 prohibits upgrade via EXE! Damn! Ive just checked and thats what I have installed!

The T-Mobile image I'm using at the moment is very slow and comes up with application errors occasionally :x

Hmm doesnt work for me. I am selecting the browse button to select the nbf file from the image and in the second drop down box selecting the sd card. When I press copy it comes up with the error ITWriteSDCard: The media is write protected, error opening target device. The card isnt locked as I can read and write files to it using explorer. Whats going on?!?!

Growing frustration!!!

Some internal SD-Card Writer make problems. i Think you can use also the SD-Card-Slot in your devuce, or you have to get an external Writer...
