New ROM has LESS stuff?!?
« on: August 24, 2004, 01:31:32 am »
I forget what my old ROM version was... 1.something or 2.something... Regardless, The Sync Program for Mac OS-X wouldn't recognize it, and it wouldn't work with my Symbol WiFi card...

So I flashed the ROM... My only downfall was not being able to verify that my card was FAT16 formatted... I assume it was since the flash was successful.

I booted it, it freaked out saying bad superblock something something... Realized I had forgotten a hard reset... Hit the hard reset switch and booted it. Put in my owner info and everything...

Hancomm Word, Spreadsheet, and all that jazz is missing, along with several games... All I have is Patience...

Is this normal?

EDIT: SL-5500 model

Yes sharp removed programs from 3.13 to make room for updates.
