HELP Rx3115 today screen help

Look at the very bottom of your iPAQ. Screen should be facing up. To the far left of the charger port there is a small black circle. Use a ball point pen, or other small diameter object, and insert the tip into the black hole to firmly but gently "tap" the button that is inset in the hole. This should activate a hard reset. Do not touch or otherwise mess with any buttons while the reset is in progress. Depending on what is loaded on your iPAQ this could take a few minutes.

2005 new, 12 years old, is new? really, and is no longer supported by HP, after 10 years.

my guess is the battery is toast,
never seen any battery last 12 years, ever.
not by a mile.
this thing has no value now.
if its LOVED, (why) then buy 2 and learn to fix them.
be like only on earth wanting to...
why not get a tablet.? modern.

here is all there is. RTM and get a new battery first.

Bad screen if the driver was bad they would tell you that you are having a problem with the driver

This can occur if you have the system settings enabled (checked) to verify/confirm the time.

Also, check your activesync settings.
Unit may wake up to autosync.
Try changing your today screen timeout settings.

So there's another icon at top of Today screen - a loudspeaker icon - tap on that and make sure it's not muted or all the way down.

Jul 14, 2005 18:26:04 GMT unassigned Well, this isn't a solution, but rather a way to work with it until you find the solution. On my rx3715, I have something called iTask. I have a button I can press on the unit that brings it up, or I can go to Programs and tap on iTask. Once it's up, I can see which programs are running and close one or all of them. Another way, if you don't have iTask or something like it, is to use your memory settings to close programs. On mine, I go to Settings>Memory and then the Running Programs tab. From there I can "stop" any program. I know this doesn't solve the problem, but now at least you'll be able to close all those programs. For a solution, I'd try doing a soft reset. If that doesn't work, do a hard reset. Maybe someone else will have some better ideas.

I am guessing that you have made sure that it is fully charged. If it is, since you have only had it a week I would try a hard reset. I don't know if the 3115 has them but check to make sure that any battery door lock switches are locked.

Just loaded a safe mode program to my iPAQ, and now it seems to reset without any problems, even when not connected to the sync cable.

On the rx3715, the background on the Today screen can be changed from Settings>Today. From there various themes can be selected and used. Also, if there is another picture I want to use as my background, I can browse and select it from the same screen.

To execute a hard boot on the iPAQ rx3115, the manual says to "while pressing the two outside buttons on front of iPAQ, press the recessed reset button on bottom." Hope it Helps... Wirzan
