Great job - it's wonderful -so far just one minor problem. Task manager is still in Russian in "programs". UC and .NETCF 3.5 would make it even better.....

Very Nice!!

I've used this rom for a couple of weeks now and so far only one problem, the wireless connection fails to reconnect after the power is turned off. I have figured out a way to circumvent this problem. Uninstall the WifiIO and use the wireless button as you would in WM5, but before it disconnects pick the view wireless networks link and press Menu -> Turn Wireless On. What a PIA, but the faster operating system definately makes up for it. Thanks a bunch Victory!

Rom for Ipaq h5550?

I hope I am not committing some sort of faux pas by asking this, but what would you charge for a WM6.1 rom for an Ipaq h5550? I could supply a machine for testing.

I am dead serious about this and am willing to pay. Please advise.

Thanks!

Re: Settings

I'm not sure what you mean by settings, but the wm5 normal button for wifi is rendered useless under wm6.1...you have to use wifiIO for some reason. I have sktools free version installed and could have deleted reg setting don't know though. Reinstall wifiIO and still disconnects after power. I've looked in windows dir. for wifion.exe but only find wifioff. Prefer wm5 button to wifiIO, wish there was a way to get it working again. Thanks.

Maybe if you Hard Reset that first, will work ! Do not forget to backup your data !

If not you can try to put the pocekt in FLASH MODE ..i do not remember the correct combination :
1:
HOLD TOGETHER Calender + Wireless + RESET For 5 SEC more or less

HOLD TOGETHER COntacts + E-Mail + RESET For 5 SEC more or less

One for Hard Reset and the other for FLASH MODE .....

Also if dose not work, you can upgrade the (Boot Loader) first then try ...

Ill try if i can found a camera to make the video ....But Just Demonstration not Tutorial to install .... As i do not have a time for that ....

Good Luck....

NICE ROM! but sdhc is not working for me :(

This rom works fine, but my sd card is not being recognized :(

I would like to know if anyone has come into the same problem an found a solution.

Have a Sandisk 4gb SDHC card. If you install drivers in rx1950 wm5 version it will work flawlessly.

I thought wm6.1 would recognize it without patched drivers but no luck, and all drivers installation process end with "unsuccesful" message.

please, is there a solution?

I ran the hpRUU, but after it restarted, now it won't turn on and I can't do a soft reboot or hard reboot. I've tried everything I can think of and I don't know what else to do. Any suggestions?

mabe you already tried this...removing the battery. wait some seconds, put it back again.

it has worked for me when my ipaq rx1950 doesnt starts. Dont know why it happens but it has made the trick when it doesnt turns on.

if that works, remember to hard reset the device or it will not pass from boot screen.

I tried taking the battery out and leaving it for a few seconds, but that didn't help either. It's almost like all of the buttons are not responding anymore.

Make sure you've the battery charged ...
then remove the battery for about 2 to 5 minutes ....Then plug the battery again ... and the pocket must turn on automatically ! just wait about 4 to 10 sec....

    My rx1950 is bricked from this. I need help please. Screenshot below.


    Looks like the same issue here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=509976

    Thanks in advance for help. Maybe all I need is bootloader.exe? This is a great device I was going to give to a good friend but I am afraid this process has ruined it.

    To resolve this problem, you just follow the instruction on the thread with the same issue:

    here the instruction maybe it will be useful for who need it :
    Download the latest "HP iPAQ rx1950 Pocket PC Series ROM Update" from hp official support website:
    Click Here


    Plug the PPC device to the computer ... (Make sure have it recognized by Windows)
    Run The "sp31892.exe" Wait the extraction process to finish ....
    Run "hpRUU.exe" --> Choose "Boot Loader" --> Update ...
    Wait the progress --> When finish the device will automatically reboot.
    Done, you have the "Boot-loader" again.
    !

    Good Luck...
