o still think its a driver issue

---

well i still think its a driver issue or hardware gpio version issue
if i m not wrong the rom its made for one single device and that device was probably old so
new ones have new ship version and dont work. bootloader is recent
old ones work
and then aggain some new ones works cos the way chip board are manufactured
an old stock off chips got int production in a more recent version of devices wich made some 1.06 bootloaders also work.
so check the driver compared with 2003 driver and the answer is hidden there........

ok i m an idiot full of ideias
god buzz will solve it
god toenailed will prove it
god xda2jojo will anounce it

As suggested by James, maybe if somebody can volunteer to upgrade his bootloader, we can finally put to rest the issue of "not working buttons" as either related to the bootloader or any other thing.

So toe, I see you are successful in downgrading, if you may share & give me the steps to do the upgrade i'm willing to take the risk!

I have bootloader 1.03 & working buttons. I'm willing to try an upgrade to 1.06.

Let me know. Good luck in your experimentations..... :wink:

hi rhmartin .. pls PM me your YM or ICQ bro .. we need to talk live in Upgrading your BOOLOADER .. my first downgrade to 1.03 .. took 1 minute to finish .. and yeah ive been praying that nothing will happen .. when i downgrade to 1.01 from 1.03 it only took 15seconds .. but when i upgrade to 1.06 it took almost 30seconds.. but when i downgrade again to 1.01 and now from 1.06 it took me also 36seconds .. anyway its more on your PC and PPC condition than the actual upgrading process .

wish you were in pHilippines so we can study and compare our device ..

anyway guys before i even try to downgrade my Bootloader id already ask a forumer who has a working button to open his device and i will open my device also and compare it with him .. i just had to confirm first using all bootloader that its not really a bootloader issue .. it will just take us too long since i cant find a forumer near to my place that has working button to compare it we only communicate thru IM ..

ONE MORE THING GUys .. anyone here has also BOOTLOADER 1.01 pls pm me .. id like to check and compare it with the one i got from JAMES .. im having some problems with 1.01 than with 1.03 .. id like to know if this is just me and my device or the problem is incompatiblity somewhere of bootloader itself ...

anyway JAMES have you try using an MMC bigger than 64MB .. i dont have a problem in SD card even in 1gb but if i use MMC it can only read first 64MB and it will hang there .. i already try it in 1.06 but i havent encounter that problem .. i remember in 1.03 that i dont a problem in that either .. anyway tnx again for the 1.01 ..

one possible clue is unfortunately is to dismantle the device or remove casing and locate what REVISION the board is.which i will do 2morrow .at the same i will try and identify any obvious differences between the two.

my original device has 1.06 and works fine!!!!!

i read thats what i do and read here that TSC2200 is responsible for the keys
so there is REV A to F of that chip
not working camera and record must be it

=hi rictec..

actually m with you that the problem is due to driver (or dll) and it can be fix with a patch or a new driver .. since we dont have this problem in old WM version .. maybe we just need to distinguish first wat causes the problem ..

anyway tnx for the info .. been doing great help for me .. especially the 1.01 ..

Hardware

---

I have an old XDAII from Korea that came with 1.52 or something like that and a newer one from China with 1.66 with Chinese on it.
I have 2.20 Translated on both now.

The hardware is different.
I broke the screen on the China one and I took the screen out of the older unit. The connections would not even fit. Different hardware. :shock:

The China one is at www.PPCtechs.com now. When it comes back, I will flash them both with 2005.
If one works and the other does not... It will prove it is a hardware issue.

Volume slider program

Has any one tried this http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus_t.html It woks great on 2003 2.20 etc. If it works on 2005, even with only the two top buttons, you could have a total of SIX buttons. (two real and 4 virtual) If the Volume slider part works.. THAT WOULD BE GREAT TOO!
