Well that's how it goes. Less than 24 hours after singing the praises of my upgraded Ameo, I got bitten by the password problem - it has to be set due to the security settings at work, turned it on this morning and wouldn't accept the password. After 5 tries (not the 6 promised!) it erased EVERYTHING - microdrive, memory card, everything.

12 hours later and i still can't get it to recognise the microdrive, nor to sync email either from home or from exchange server. I have tried hard re-set, hard re-set with microdrive format and have even re-flashed the ROM, this time with PK DUAL

Now pretty much at wit's end and thinking I may have to send back to T-Mobile. Any suggestions before I do? Will I have to find original ROM before I send it back? - just found the official WM6 T-mobile ROM so I may try that first.

Update:

Just received unit back from T-Mob. They have replaced the entire base unit and I suspect there was a real hardware problem somewhere. Whether this caused the password problem or not I cannot tell. Real pleased with T-Mob support and even more so when they confirmed there is a 24-month warranty on the unit.

Restored Ameo to previous spec and all is working just as I mentioned in earlier forum.

I'm a happy bunny once more.

Happy New Year All
