HP IPAQ 6515 Bootloader password

Technical, iPAQ, 139 words   English (AU) Bookmark and Share

The HP IPAQ 6515 uses the boot loader2 password to unlock the full help menu in the serial console interface. It does not allow access to more commands than before and simply shows help for more commands.

If you are interested in viewing the commands there are a couple of passwords that would unlock it depending on your exact 6515 model.

  • BOOTLOADER
  • BEETLES
  • 0000000000000000 - (16 x 0s) password for level 1 which unlocks additional RUU functions

Personally, both BOOTLOADER and 0000000000000000 worked fine for me on a HP IPAQ 6515e and you can enter level 1 directly with 0000000000000000



USB>password BOOTLOADER
HTCSPass.<Y-HTCEUSB>password 0000000000000000
HTCSPass1.CM^EHTCEUSB>

If you typed the wrong password, you will get



USB>password 0000000000000000
HTCSInvalid password

    You can send the IPAQ into bootloader mode by holding the power button, joystick button and using your stylus to press the soft reset.
