My 8year old compaq iPaq
Hi,
I am sorry to hear regarding the problem. This is a common problem on this handset. There are a proper troubleshooting steps that we offer to the customers which are :-
1.Have you tried charging it through USB through your desktop or notebook? There are certain occasions when i have seen cradle or A/C adapter being at fault.If you have not tried, it would be worth to give a shot.
2. If it's a new battery, we recommend charging it for 8 hours ( only for the first time), remove the battery, soft reset and then reinsert the battery.
3. Charge the device for approximately 30 minutes on A/C adapter ( not on the cradle ).
4. Try full hardware reset.
5. Charge the battery for 4 hours ( A/C only ) and then soft reset it after 4 hours.
If these would not help, this would confirm an internal failure. It is highly suggestive of ' blown IC ' on the power board, however sometimes it could be due to firmware failure.
UNFORTUNATELY, THERE IS NO WAY TO RECOVER THE DATA ON THE MACHINE IN THIS CONDITION.
Let me know,if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
I lost my cd
Yes, you can. You do not need any cd, only must configure a bluetooth network connection between the PC and Pocket PC and then can browse internet, skype and etc. If You don't know how make network connection between pc's, please ask, I can help with it.
Good Luck !
Numerical photos
So you can just copy a jpeg file over to the IPAQ and then click on that file and it will display it.
It's best to resize your photo down to below 100KB before you copy it to the IPAQ.

H3970 wont load
Hi,
Have you performed a full reset rather than the normal reset? It might help but you will loss any settings you have so be warned.
Procedure as follows:
1. Press and hold the two outer buttons on the bottom of your iPAQ.
2. While holding down those buttons, use the stylus to press the reset switch for at least five seconds. The screen will go blank.
3. Connect the iPAQ Pocket PC to the AC adapter.
4. Run through the Setup Wizard to reestablish system and calibration settings.
I hope this helps,
