Hi guys, i got a 3200 for sale if any of you guys are interested, i'm located in brooklyn, i just really want to offload it since i'm not smart enough to deal with the distros. Trades are welcome (as long as its not for another Zaurus), make an offer, you'll find that i'll take any price (or trade) thats reasonable.

For Sale / Wanted / Fs: Zaurus 3200

« on: January 22, 2009, 01:21:09 am »

Hey guys,

This is my zaurus 3200 for sale. Honestly i'm selling because i can't seem to get any distros to run right, maybe you guys will have better luck. This zaurus was sold to me by a friend, but i have no need for it at all. It was given to me with Cacko installed but it wasn't running right, so i uninstalled it and put on Openzaurus, but it just didn't do what i wanted it to, so i installed cacko again but the install doesn't seem right. hardware-wise, it runs fine, and has no problems, but I don't have the patience to read through the forums to find out about how to get the software running right. I don't have the patience to tinker with it.

I'm located in NY in the US, if you're interested in or just send me a PM or email me at roger.tee@gmail.com. I'm not sure what these are worth so make an offer, If you would like to trade for it for anything, thats cool too (i'm a bit of a gadget monger, just not another zaurus   ) I'm willing to ship of course but, I prefer someone local if thats possible.

Some things to note:

I was told that the micro HDD was replaced with a CF card of the same size because of speed.
I can include a 1gb SD card as well.
comes with charger and Zaurus unit.
It is missing the stylus.

now when i plug in my zaurus (into my pc running windows xp), 12 windows open for it and ask me if i want to open the folder or play files in media player.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=148769\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

I think this particular part of the problem is Windows XP itself and autoplay settings.
I once plugged my C3100 USB into a friend's new XP laptop, and several windows popped up and asked to play media files, and a couple other windows opened up and launched his paint program and opened my pictures on my Zaurus.
Now, on my Windows XP computer, I have all automatic stuff turned off, especially Autoplay!
Turn off Autoplay for all drives.
I hate it when I insert a CD-ROM and windows wants to play a media file on it automatically.
When I plug my Zaurus into my Windows XP machine, nothing happens except an additional drive is added to "My Computer", under "Devices with Removable Storage"
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=148843\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

how do i turn it off completely?  or do i have to go to each drive and do it seperately?

Have you rebooted your Z? A cold boot by removing the battery and AC for 10 seconds is probably a good idea.

The RAZR cables aren't very custom, 5v and GND are in the right places, but maybe it confused the Z USB hardware. Better to be confused than damaged after all...

i tried that.  same results sadly.

I accidently plugged my RAZR charger into the USB slot on my Zaurus thinking it was a USB cable.  now when i plug in my zaurus (into my pc running windows xp), 12 windows open for it and ask me if i want to open the folder or play files in media player.  its weird cause everytime i close a window, another replaces it so that i constantly have 11 windows opening for it.  it only lets me view the Documents folder.  if i go to anything else, it just closes and opens another window.  any ideas?  maybe i should get a CF USb or something?

That's usual....

I have got several 'versions' of pdaxrom beta*  on-hand so that different kinds of dogs can be flashed accordingly.

If one version cannot be flashed in one machine, try another beta 'version' until that beta version can be flashed in finally...

Still no luck, tried different cards and different sizes, formatted in XP and in camera, no joy. I'm convinced it's not even trying to read the cards, even the 16mb SD card that I installed U-boot from originally (via menus)

aw crap

??

I guess my last option is to download the NAND backup from Trisoft and restore that ?
