Weird Problem

[Ather]

Guyz..i have a very weird Problem..I just got my New Hima.when i got it it had WM 2003..then i checked everything..especially Sound all was fine..then i started Partioning but it didnt happen so i flashed anyway to Wm 6.1 by shekhar..there the problem arose..
the device became slow like hell..then i flashed to mine Wm 6.1 and it was the same result..

then i tried to flash 3 Wm 5 ..one by Helmi..one by shekhar and one by llbasha..same result

BUT the MOMENT i switched back to WM 2003 every thing was fine..even the sound..i used Hima DOC restore to have 14MB back and now every thing is set..but i cant flash Wm 6 , 5 or 6.1

Please Help Guyz :(

Hi ather
Compare speed wn connect to charger

[Oweida]

Still no cure from this problem ??

[hagisbasheruk]

Connect to mtty via usb using the usual method then type
task 28 55aa
This will Format the NAND and will also reformat the "partition"

[Ather]

OMG ..Will suerly try that

1000 Hugs and Kisses if that works

[Ather]

when i conect it ..it says

"USB Port Cannot Open"...im using Windows XP

Edit : forgot to Kill the Active Sync ( feeling sleepy after hours of search )..Flashing WM 6.1 Now..will post the results

[Ather]

Still no cure from this problem ??

Im Sorry to say NO

Connect to mtty via usb using the usual method then type

It didnt work..its the same result..iam back on WM 2003

BTW GUYZ This is a PH10B Device But without Camera

[Jadel]

What do you mean without camera?? I didn't think they ever made a PH10B device without camera unless it was created for corporate environment, in which case I imagine other hardware is different. Perhaps you can post a picture, front and back of the device.

[Ather]

I dunnow..i got this device as a gift

every thing is simlar to Himalayas..Except the Camera Function

Will post the images soon

[Jadel]

Can't wait to see, sounds interesting, and everyone likes puzzles :)

i cant believe it, there is a himalaya without camera? cant seem to remember if ever there was one. maybe that is a modified himalaya, a test kit, one of the first, beta unit. can you post pictures of the back?

[Oweida]

Ather, Try to flash the rom without repartitioning the storage i,e, keep it 14 MB and see what will happen,,,, Hope It would WORK.

[Oweida]

If it won't work with you ,, just wait !! you will recieve another one - which will be tested perfectly to work fine with WM 6.1 . Sooon you will get it,,, be PATIENT. I mean it (إن الله مع الصابرين)

[boby1911]

ather try checking the processor speed is it the same like all xdaII or its downgraded?

[Ather]

its the same as normal xda2..i.e 400MHz

[Ather]

another weird thing..if i take out the battery its written PH10B..but when i went into Settings and Device Info..it showed PH10A

[c_shekhar]

It is a ghost of PH10A sitting inside PH10B.
Oweida has especially arranged this device for you so that you can enjoy two devices at a time...

[Jadel]

Lol C_Shekhar,

Ather, your Himalaya is the original hardware model. The main difference, if not only difference, was the touchscreen hardware. Did you notice if it was a very dark screen on original phone?

This information definately changes thnigs. Your problem will likely have to do with the touchscreen.

Further, what is your bootloader number? V1.03 or V.104

I didnt notice the Touchscreen..but yes the bootloader is v 1.03

[Ather]

Its confermed that the Device is PH10A..just installed Softkick Card Export..the Pc Detected the device as PH10A :(

sorry to hear that... so does this mean that PH10A is not suitable for WM6.x and 5? maybe you can just trade-in that unit to a PH10B + maybe some cash on cellphone shops in your area

[Ather]

i have come across a very strange thing..the bootloader version is 1.03 .
most of the roms require at least bootloader 1.06 so i will try to upgrade the Bootloader and re-try :)

so there is still hope

Bootloader version may not be a problem. Because My device had 1.02 and I never felt the need for upgrading that..

[boby1911]

BTW Himalaya without camera is not PB10B but PB10A so no Hima

[kgx]

I got similar problem with regular himalaya too, wm2003 ok , but wm6 many seconds wainting even for start menu. Finaly solved problem but not remember how.
I think it is some kind of hardware fault.
