Charmer with iGO 8 problem - MDA Compact II ROM Development

Hi all,
I installed iGo 8 on my charmer, for some reason the installation did not work, but I managed to just start the program from my sd card.
It is relly cool and I like it a lot, but all of a sudden it does not work anymore.
When I start it it loads everything up to "starting" and then I get the following fatal error message:
Fatal Error occured in main thread
Address: 0x00282b34
Exeption: 0xc0000005
Does anybody have a solution for that problem.
The only thing I can imagine that caused the problem: I tried some patches to read sdhc cards on my charmer, but it did not work so I deinstalled the patches...
Does anybody have some advice for me?
Thanks,
Jared

How do you install iGO? Is it an original copy on SD card? If so, I think they sell it on SDHC cards, which Charmer does not support so far.
What do you mean by: "but all of a sudden it does not work anymore"? Did it work, and then one day it stopped?

yes it did work perfectly at first
well I installed a "copy" on my normal sd card.
And appart from the installation part it just worked perfekt.
But from one day to another I got that error...
I tried to copy all files again, same result...
Any ideas?

I'm running iGo8 on ridingshark's WM6 without any problems. However, I did *not* try to patch the OS for SDHC support.
Hardreset might help...

Only Hard Reset helped
I could not find a solution to fix the problem, so therefore made a backup then a Hardreset, installed iGo - it worked instantly - and put back on my data.
Now everything works fine again!
I guess the SDHC patch messed up the whole thing.
Too bad there isn't a way to use SDHC cards with the charmer

something dodgy found regarding SD cards?

Hi,
I upgraded to the 4.01.00 build of 2003. I decided after a bit that I missed the stuff I could add in from the kitchen and also for some reason when I tried to install something to the SD card it would just create a cab file on the card... So I manually started the cab installer from the location and it automatically installed the software into main memory?
I went back to a new brew of yorch's kitchen using 4.00.16 with hopes that this would be resolved...
I dont seem to have any problems accessing the SD card.. the data is transfered over fine... although I set Activesync to use the sd card it only ever copies the cab file and then shows the program not installed.... if I go to the SD card I can see and run the cab file copied over by activesync... but it only copies it to memory
I thought cab files installed relative to your current location (i.e) you run an install from the SD.. it gets installed to the SD.. run it from the main memory and it gets installed to the main memory.. etc.
But I'm totally confused as to why activesync refuses to install anything onto the SD card itself.
Has anyone else recieved this problem? know how to fix it? any ideas?
currently it appears I can only use the SD card for music/files or whatever I want to store rather than install other programs...
cheers for any help,
Ian.
I would uninstall your current version of activesync and install version 3.7.1. If you have 3.7.1, I would do a reinstall. It sounds like the issue isn't your SD card or the ROM that is loaded.
upps, on my XDA I everything works fine ...
I mean installing software to SD card and running the software from SD card, others things are not that smooth .... but the above mentioned is ok
I do use WM2003, version 4.0.21 T-Mobile ROM
regards,
monika
Just thought I'd add how I fixed the problem...
I stopped using this
http://www.iliumsoft.com/site/fg/dockware.htm
everytime I hard reset my device the first thing I'd do was install 3 programs...
Iliumsoft Dockware Pro
Tillanosoft Small Menu Plus
Omega One Battery Pack 2004
On that build (4.01.00) of the ROM Dockware would pretend to install by activesync... but it wouldnt even copy over or anything...
After doing that, the rest of the software would follow straight into main memory whither I asked it to or not.... the exception to this case was a few programs like Resco explorer and a few games that did install to the card.
Everything else just copied the cab files over to the sd card.. and then when you installed the cab files from there, they went into main memory.
So.... I hard reset the device and didnt install DockWare at all.... every piece of software installs fine now without a hitch...
Strange huh?
MOTD: dont use Dockware on later builds of 2k3 heh

SD Slot not working after ROM upgrade

Hi
I recently upgraded my XDAII to Sin's magic new merged ROM and am really happy with it (thanks Sin!). The only problem is that now my SD slot appears to not work. I have tried to search the forum for an answer but have had no luck.
Symptoms of the problem:
When I insert the card when the phone is on but the backlight has turned off, the backlight comes on again, so it must be recognising the fact that the card has been insterted. But I don't see it either in explorer, or in the Memory control applet.
I have tried a couple of cards, and have even reformatted them using a card reader, but still no joy.
Am I being dumb? Hope someone can help.
Cheers
Donk
Hi, should have mentioned that I am running WM2003SE. Hope someone can help.
Cheers

Have you considered reflashing the Rom again? Maybe the unit went through a flashing error?

TomTom 5.21 install

This morning I received my new 2Gb miniSD card for my new Wizard.
I copied everything across from my old 1Gb SD card that was in my Blue Angel after formatting the miniSD to FAT32.
When I insert the miniSD into the Wizard the TomTom install screen pops up for a couple of seconds with the rotaing windows square thingy in the middle of the screen, then stops.
The same happens if I click Start in my Storage Card folder, or autorun in the 2577 folder on the storage card.
Anyone any idea why it isn't installing?
Its a legit version of TomTom btw, and runs perfectly on my Blue Angel (even if I put the miniSD into the adapter and insert into the Blue Angel it works fine!).
-FM
Sounds like it may have a missing file or something. I installed mine via miniSD card as well without any problems. Maybe when you reformatted the card something got erased or something...
Does anyone know the max size card this phone will handle? I would really like to use a 4GB mini in it if possible!
Thanks

Hmm, if there's a file missing how come it works on my Blue Angel no problem?

you have to run cab files in the 2577... It should work now...
It may be because you already had the app installed on your blue angel (if I read your post correctly).
I don't believe any actual 4GB minisd cards exist. I remember reading about a couple of HoFo people ordering them from Ebay & getting burned.
Installing from the cab files worked...
but a few hours later the Wizard hung up completely and wouldn't boot (stuck on the Windows Mobile screen for hours!), so I ended up doing a hard reset.
After this I downloaded the 5.21 installer from the TomTom website and installed that - job done! That installed perfectly from my PC, and my standard GB mapped no problem.... just got to iron out a couple of other issues (see my other posts re TomTom) and then I'll try to activate my other maps and traffic services on the Wizard...
Cheers,
-FM
I have Qtek 9100 and TomTom 5.0. I had to install manyally the cabs and then copy the voices to the device to make it work. I guess 5.0 just wasn't officially compatible. 5.21 is, so that should work just fine. I also upgraded to 5.21 after manual install 5.0. Both versions are working ok for me.

Not quite BRICKed but..no mem. & error [224]

Hello,
FCWs 6.5 Home edition 8325,2gig
Long story involving a 5 year old.
Basically right now I can only fire up in sort of a limp mode; "low on memory" or no "permission". Probably due to scores of "FILE000x.chk" files on the device after using Pocket Mechanic Pro on microSD card.
1) It'll only reliably boots with a battery out/in technique.
2) Its "connected" to desk-top PC but as a "guest" and isn't "synced"
3) I can browse it through ActiveSync on the PC, but can't add, move or delete files due to "low memory" or "permissions" (same on the 8525)
4) A few programs won't run and are not recognized as "valid P-PC" apps, including the front end "home2"
5) Can't flash anything as SSPL ROM flasher gives "ERROR [224]: device not responding".
Started with a corrupt 2 gig microSD, couldn't write to it, ran Pocket Mechanic Pro. that Problem solved, this prob created.
Read all Wikis, searched error 224, reflashed about 15 times, know the ropes.
Any Ideas are greatly appreciated!
Regards, PK
Have you tried flashing the rom from the memory card, its the only thing that i can suggest i don't know much about broken hermes.
Hope this helps and that you find a fix
Thanks for the reply Scott,
That was my next line of attack but I'm not clear yet on exactly how to do it (I'll find out).
My big problem is I can't add (or remove or even move) any files on the device either from File explorer on the phone or through. ActiveSync on the pc (I can look at them though...). I also dont have a card reader writer.
I think a lot of problems would go away if I could delete all the 200+ *.CHK files generated by Pocket mechanic pro. I think that where all my memory went.
I just found a way using delete feature in "RAR" ...6 down 200 odd to go. Antone know how to select multiple files?
Regards, PK
Regards, PK
Now its in solitary
I managed to delete 219, *.chk files from the rom hoping to free up memory. I'ts still isolated, I cant add any files to it (like a ROM or utility) through activeSync. The warning is it "can't find the file or path." of the file. To flash a rom from I still get "error 224," don't recognize the device.
Tried to load the SD card with a rom through my camera, no luck, the camera says "cannot flash".
The OS still works in a limp mode, no phone, half the programs inaccessible and home2 no longer works.
Fun.
PK
Have you tried connecting the card to the computer and reformatting it from there you might then be able to flash another rom
Thanks,
I don't have a card reader. The only thing I do have is a printer that accepts multiple card types and a camera that takes this card. So far I can't right to either.
Ya, theres a thread that tells how to flash from a card. Right now though its just of limits.
Thanks, PK
Edit: just got card reader.
Have SD Card with rom can't boot off it and install.
Hello all interested,
1) So I bought a card reader and as per 2 wikis, reformated my SD card fat32 and a single partition of about 190megs.
2) I copied just the "RUU_signed.nbh" file from my stripped ATT rom RAR file. (The wikis were a little unclear as they were apparently using different roms)
3) I installed this ROM directly from my PC to SD card through the card reader. And put the little SD card into the phone. ( I can only read not write anything though activesync as wiki implies. Problem?)*
4) As per wikis , hard booted with pen while holding power and OK keys.
5) All I get is the 4 striped screen with a IPL and SPL verbiage. NOT the "loading from SD card" as described in the wikis.
Help... anybody, PK
* Does loading the ROM through Active syn? I know it changes format of some files

Did you rename the file RUU_singned.nbh to HERMIMG.NBH?
Thanks alot for the reply,
I think you are the man! I did change the name but changed it to HERMING.NBH not HERMIMG.NBH. It seems to be flashing (slowly) right now.
If this works I owe you a BIG cerveza!
Regards, PK

Vijovame,
You are definitely the man.
I flashed the plain Jane stripped ATT ROM but EVERYTHING WORKS! It syncs, the phone works, camera, etc, etc...Now I'm off to flash something interesting.
Thanks for making me re-read the .nbh name. (I've been trying to fix this about half the time I've owned it...my first smarphone)
All the best!!
PK
its good to hear that youve sorted it, theres a few roms out there at the moment so you may have to look around a bit and flash quite a few of them, the safest way is the card method but it is up to you.
Have fun with your hermes
Scotty,
Ironically I had already blindly flashed just about everything out there without a hitch. I finally settled on one. That's when all 'ell broke loose. Now I've got the stripped ATT on my flash drive ready to install anytime if I have to.
Thanks, PK

android build..?
back up all your data from your sd card, then reformat your sd card and try again. I should work....
Yesterday i was helping my gf to install android on her hd2, i encountered exactly the same problem as you. Then reformat sd card, install android again. It works smoothly without any problem.
Hope it helps.
thx for advice...i try it...
I have the same Problem...
no matter what I do, it does not work
It always freeze or reboot new.
I have formatted my SD i think over 100 times
What i do wrong?
I have hspl2 and the newest Radio ROm, but it doesnt work
EDIT: I tried all Android builds noone works
Did you do a task29 to format internal memory, then install back energy rom. Only install android. Have you tried that?
@ whizzkid_cool
I dont understand, what is task29
And energy rom? is that a custom Rom?
Still Doesn't work....

Did you copy the complete Android directory (so not only the files) to the root of your SD card?
All you have to do is read
It could also be your SD card. I had exactly the same issue with an 8gb card I recently purchased. No matter how many times I formatted it I still couldn't get Android to run fully all the time.
I have since got a 4gb SD card and Android, all builds, now runs without any issues whatsoever.
Just a suggestion that it may not be something you're doing, or not doing, but an actual hardware issue!
You might also be making the same mistake I did.
When the guides on this forum said to copy the Android folder to the root of my SD card, I thought it was referring to the "/" directory that I saw in Windows Explorer. (What is actually the internal memory of the HD2)
I was putting Android in the wrong directory. I should have been copying it over to the Storage Card one, which is the actual MiniSD Card. That's the root directory.
Just a thought.
same problem...
Hey guys
i tried everything but i have the same problem
it´s only the green screen from HTC. I hope it is not the SDCard
I have the goatrip 6.0 final version and tried it with many Android builds, most of them were from Mdeejay
Please help me without android i think the hd2 is boring for me
