Regarding Hima DOC tool

[Ather]

Ive been goin gthrough the forums and i saw that many of u could not no sucessfully run Hima DOC tool..i suggest u guyz that

1. Switch to WM2003 (for a while)
2.Run Hima DOC tool
3.Switch back to WM6

I am telling this from personal experience..as this tool was made when there was no WM6 for our Himas (barely WM5)

[insaint]

What you are saying is puzzling to me. What do you mean by go back to WM2003 for a while to run the DOCTool, then back to WM6? Doesn't that defeat the purpose? Wouldn't flashing the WM6 ROM over the WM2003 repartition the ROM space, so negating the changes done with the DOCTool under WM2003?

By the way the DOCTool is working under WM6 for me perfectly. The only problem is it is giving an error message, about beeing unable to do it's job, but it is doing it anyway.

No it doesnt defeat the purpose..i ve flashed 10 times from 2003 to WM6..(for STK)...and its still the same..I ve run this app widout ANY kind of error

Hi,

I've upgrade my ROM to WM5, but unfortunately I just have 14Mb memory.
I wanna upgrade my memory to 30Mb.

Would you give me the WM2003 firts just to increase my memory.

Thx & Rgds.

well, not exactly - Buzz' DOC Tool is designed to run under WM5 only! One cannot predict what it will do to your Hima, when used under PPC2003...

I used the tool in WM5 and was able to increase the memory.

Done it also to my wife's XDAII and also successful and no need to go back to PPC2003.

:) Switch back to 2003 for a while to install HIMA DOC Tools. I had been trying to install HIMA DOC TOOL for days, on my WM5 HIMALAYA, but with no success. I even tried to install it using WM6. However, storage remained 14 meg, instead of 30 meg. Finally I came across this thread, and actually installed WM2003, and only then HIMA DOC TOOL worked perfectly! then I installed WM5 back, and my storage memory remained 30 megs instead of 14 meg! that's great! thank you all guys! :)

i've tried running hima_DOC after i upgraded from wm2k3 to wm5..
it works fine, i got what i needed (30.53MB)..
after that upgraded again to wm6 and doesn't need to use the hima_DOC again (just use it once on wm5)..

hope it's informative enough :)

[selangkahlagi]

Yes you are right, DOC tool work very well in WM5

No, there is a DOC tool for WM5/6 but it's been around since 2004 in older versions. This is a quote from an older Must-read:

At the moment it MUST be run under WM2003!!!
That means, YOU MUST DOWNGRADE FIRST.

[Ather]

thats what i've been trying to tell here

[selangkahlagi]

I work with HIMA DOC tool in WM2003, it was successful to increase the storage memory. And I upgrade my system to WM6. And also successfully. But I try to decrease back the memory storage to 14 MB in WM6 and I am failed :D

[utak3r]

OK, you're right, it's Binary0 partition backup tool, which has to be run under WM5 and above only... Hima DOC Tool should run OK on PPC2003, too :)

[Maggy]

I've never tried to run DOC tool to increase EXTROM size, I did try to find old forum messages about perhaps command line options or so but can't find it.

Is there anyone who actually tried it and can tell selangkahlagi exactly how to do it? Including DOC tool version? Selangkahlagi, you could of course try by sending Buzz lightyear a PM, although I haven't seen him here for quite a while. You can also try to contact him on http:\\buzzdev.net

[selangkahlagi]

Maggy thank for your advice :)

[Maggy]

If you find the solution, and I'm pretty sure you will, please report it back both in this thread and in the 30MB Storage sticky. In general I don't like cross-posts, in this case it can help others with the same wish.

update: the doctool download that includes doc_restore can be found at
