Mobility Site - View Single Post - Easier way to recover your X50 after you bricked it+premade nb0 files

Hi. Just got an Axim X50. I upgraded the rom to A05 on PPC 2003 fine. After I updated to WM5 A01, it did some strange stuff. It worked after a reboot, but after I did the screen alignment and stuff it died again. Hard resetting shows the Dell logo and the progress bar going about a quarter of the way across. I tried the rom link to recover A01 on here but the SD loader screen wouldn't come up.

Is there anything else I can try? If there are files involved please try to find somewhere that doesn't require image verification since I'm visually impaired and have a hard time with them.

Thanks.

Update: I got into the SD loader and got the 2003 A05 image installed again, image update was successful and the bootloader was loaded properly. But it's doing the same thing, freezing at Dell. Hard reset, soft reset, just keeps locking up. I went through the diagnostics suspecting a memory problem but everything passed. What am I doing wrong? How should I fix this beautiful little thing?
