View Full Version : Missing bootloader (?)

My device seems to be missing a bootloader, when I try to hit the three magic buttons I never get any bootloader. Also, after talking to pof on this forum and trying his EnterBootloader.exe-file that supposedly should start the bootloader from within CE, I'm more certain that it seems like there's no actual bootloader in this device.

All I want to do is upgrade the device with a new ROM, but I'm unable to use any of the upgrade-tools, most probably because of the missing bootloader (?)

Anyone have any ideas of what I should try, or what I can do? I've tried pmemdump on various locations, but I don't know what to look for. Maybe it's possible to write a ROM through WinCE? (I don't know the internals of WinCE, so I don't know what you can do and what you can't do, I'm afraid.)

In advance, thanks!

Have you tried to remove your sdhc?? If it's inside, no bootloader!

Yes, there's no SD-card in the device.
