Axim X51v Trouble

[terryduran]

I am new to this forum. I have an axim x51v that I tried flashing wm6 from wm5 by way of SD. After the flashing took place the Axim instructed me to hard reset the device to complete the flashing. I tried doing that, but to no avail. The device will not even turn on. I can get to the diagnostic screen and everything passes except there is what looks like a "z" next to "Flash" I don't know what to do to getmy device back to an operating state. If you can help me, please do!!

When you flashed your ROM image did you get the correct prompts? Such as boot loader image, and image updating? There are ways to recover your AX even from the dreaded white screen. At this point i'd suggest that you make sure you have your SD card formated with FAT 32, and you have a trusted image loaded on that SD and then try to flash your AX again.

Here is exactly what I did. I downloaded Football's WM6 ROM. I formatted my SD card FAT32 and copied both the ROM image and the CRC file to the SD card. I put the SD card into the Axim, pressed Wireless + power + reset and the axim screen is white with a blue bar on the top. The text in the blue box says, "SD Image Update A05". At that point in the white part of the box the file "DiAd_K_AximX51v_WM6_A03EN.nb0" file is listed. I press the center navigator button twice to start the update. The axim then shows the prompt that says "image updating" and "loading from SD card" and it does its thing. About 3/4 way through, the axim says "Image Updating" and "Writing Flash" it shows matching RAM and CRC checksums. Finally, the axim says, "Update complete" "Image update finished. Please Power + Reset to do hard reset manually" I doas the device asks. The device doesn't let me hard reset so I press record + power + reset and after the diag screen comes up, I press power + reset. After that, I get nothing. I press power and get absolutely nothing. I'm sure that this has something to do with my bootloader, but I don't know how to fix that. Can you help based on the information I have given you?

It sounds like you have an issue with your ROM image. I'd suggest you download a new image and try to flash again. I'd download one of the images from xda develpers or htcgeeks.com.
