Actually if it is continuously rebooting, it is usually because someone was holding down the trigger through a cold boot process. That's what puts it into this continuous reboot loop. To get out of it do a cold boot again (pop the battery part of the way out, hold down the power button and trigger simultaneously, and then push the battery back in while the power button and trigger are still down). But as soon as you push in the battery to the point where you hear it click, release the trigger. If you hold it in too long, the unit will start continuously rebooting.

If your MC9090's run Windows Mobile 5.0 platform, the stuck-in-boot screen freeze and cycle error is common issue related to the initialization overload of embedded programs such as Microsoft Office mobile suite, and, the added firmware of audio capability, etc. The unit can be fixed %90+ of the time with a full OS / Firmware rebuild and reload, along with the load of a utility file released for Windows Mobile 5.0 MC9090 boot error - that corrects / prevents this from happening.

You will need to reflsh the os.

Download the right version from www.symbol.com and also download TCM (normally somes included on the DCP or device configuration package) and has instructions on how to do it, however if you get stuck with this, get back to me and i will help you out.

    If by using TCM and reloading the images has not sorted the problem, I am afraid you will be up for a £500 fixed price repair from Motorola unless you have a maintenance contract.


    I get a few terminals like this every day with the same problem and although i manage to fix most of them, there is always one or two that have to be sent for repair.


    By the way, Motorola has recently changed the website policy and if you want to download the OS images now, you need to request them from them. For this, you need the serial number of the device and other information.


    I have most of the images and I am also a Motorola Gold Partner so if you actually need any of these just get in touch.

    would you still happen to have those images? I have several guns doing the same thing.

If it is a Windows Mobile 5 device, reload the OS in full using SD card method. If the device is Windows CE5, you can enter IPL mode by doing a coldboot, and whilst inserting the battery back in the device, press the trigger and put it in the cradle until it enters IPL. Once there, you can either use SD card with the OS Hex files or you can use USB Download from Motorola to download the files sing a cradle from your PC. It will be recognised by the PC as this method does not use Active sync.

When I press the keys on my MC9090 they give the wrong output.

The Motorola MC9090 can have different keypads attached. If you do change the keypad for any reason for example go from a 53 key to 43 key layout the terminals must be cold booted.


To cold boot an MC9090 running Windows Mobile 5. Partially remove the battery, hold down the On/Off button, the trigger and reinsert the battery. When the orange light on the keyboard flashes release the on/off button and the trigger.

If the on/off button or trigger is held down longer than required this occasionally causes the terminal to get caught in a warm boot cycle

If the device is still not giving the correct key output it may have a faulty keypad.

Not ABLE to switch on MC9090. tried replacing the battery . Held the power button for 2 mins . nothing is working. Is there any key combination to start the reader ? please help.

I know it may be a little late now since you're question was a couple months ago, but I have had this problem with some 9090's before too where a warm boot (holding the power button down) will not bring them up, but a cold boot always does (unless of course it truly is defective - that's not usually the case though).

To do a cold boot, pop the battery out part of the way until it "catches" (you'll know what I mean if you have an MC9090 and try it). Then hold down the trigger and the power button simultaneously while pushing in the battery all the way. Once the battery has been pushed in, release the power button and the trigger.

This should cause the MC9090 to boot up fine. Make sure you release the trigger after doing the steps above. Sometimes people don't do that, and this causes the MC9090 to go into an infinite warm boot where it just continuously reboots over and over. The only way to get out of it is to cold boot again, but this time release the trigger in time.

Thanks,
