C'mon, you mean you guys already forgot the shorter method to solve the 1899 problem? Just rename the \Backup folder in \Nand Disk to something else and then soft reset
(and then rename it back and soft reset after deleting the newly created \Backup folder
). Oh, wait, is that BeShell 0.9b8? As I recall, that was the one OE that ignored the \Backup folder during reboot.
(The shortcut works in 0.9b5 and 0.9b7.
) But 0.9b8 seems to retain the date after reset once corrected, at least based on my experience.
(BTW, I've even had a few revert to 18
50 after the battery ran down.
)
I have at least half a dozen BE-300 cradles.
(Several of the ones I've picked up came in their original boxes.
) But the issue seems to be on the device end as I get the same result with all the cradles: the BE-500 and that one BE-300 won't connect, but all the other BE-300s will.
I haven't seen any backup.dat versions of EpodXP nor of XPod/eXpod
(other than the Japanese version of eXpod 6.1 that I just mentioned above
). They're all backup.bin versions. Anyway, those who know me here know I like to be able to sync PIM data onto my CE devices, which is impossible without the cradle.
