I am unable to upgrade to wm 2003, i have d/l the rom from xda more than once i tried to upgraded on different pcs and different xda's i'm always getting the same error when i click on start.bat the process starts very normally, then my xda screen goes white and after a few sec i receive the following error....
ERROR 008: Open Port Error
Can not open a COM/USB port. Please use Device Manager on PC to make sure that the COM/USB port is available and working properly.
i use Active Sync 3.7 regularly with no problem.
Please help
Thanks
Are you using USB? If so, are you using a USB hub? You may experience problems if you use a hub.
No
I am using USB indeed but with no usb hub, and i've tried it on 3 different pcs and 3 different xda no one got the same problem?
sounds like my problemb. I get the white screen too, no progress bar, and the USB error sometimes as well. Mine is that I am running the first version of WME2003 O2 developers ROM. You can not get out of this ROM to any other ROM without flashing via SD card, then you can upgrade or downgrade to other ROMs. Hopefully this helps. I have only seen this so far with this version of ROM. :?
Thanks
I am running the first version of PPC2003 too, I am going to try to downgrade thanks for your help i'll keep you posted

I can't figure out why AdaptROM cannot connect to my XDA. I am running Active Sync 3.7 on Windows XP pro. I have Norton Anti-Virus and several other applications that are always running. I have tried disabling all of them and it didn't make any difference. I am running the new T-Mo WME2003 and the new 6.4 radio stack on my SX-56. It syncs just fine with the PC and has a pairing relaitionship set up.
Neither AdaptRom or any of the .exe upgrade programs, nor Mobipassword can connect to my XDA. Anyone have any ideas why this might be? I have tired using a serial cable and the USB cradle and changing the connection settings. When I originally upgraded it way back when to the ATTWS SX-56 PPCE2002 rom it worked just fine. I hadn't tried it since.
The only thing I can think of is a registry setting being hosed up. I am going to try uninstalling active sync and reinstalling and see if that makes a difference.
Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
I tried removing and reinstalling Ative Sync and it didn't have any effect. Both programs show an Active Sync error cannot connect to device.
It's as if something must have the port tied up.
Same Here
I upgraded to the 4.00.10 rom on my xda but I can't get either adaptrom or Programme A to run so that I can downgrade the device or reflash it.
Any help would be appreciated as I don't have access to an sd card writer.

I had the same problem U had before. the best solution is to buy a SDcard reader to do the job.

Good luck :wink:
I noticed that the 3.x CE developer environment also cannot connect
to a 2003 device.

Could this mean that some supporting files are missing from the T-Mobile rom? If somebody could get a list of all the files that are different between the 4.00.05 and the 4.00.10 roms then it might point to something...
You can try another hard reset of your xda. That happened to me about a month ago and a hard reset fixed it. Unfortunately I had to create a new relationship etc.. - Jim
Ive always been able to connect my S100 to my PC and Active Sync has automaticly started up asking me what kind of connection I want (Guest or Standard) But now it wont work.
It still charges through the USB and when Windows finds the device but Active synd doesnt. (Im running latest version from MS)
I've un- and reinstalled Active Sync
I've tried different USB-ports
I've tried different USB-Cables
I've tried different computers (wont work there either)
I've rebooted the device
It must be something in my S100
Please help!
Thanx in advance

Everything all right
Are u using the same version of Active sync that came bundled with your device?
If yes TRY THE UPDATED VERSION
If NO, Try the PREVIOUS VERSION.
maybe there is something wrong in one of the connecting Pins In the cradle/Socket of the cable
How do I update software in the device, when I cannot sync?
Ive tried different software in my PC. None worked.
Im not sure its a HW-failure in the cable, since I tried different ones..
It could be in the device, Im not sure how to check though.

What version of ActiveSync has worked for you up until now?
Try an older version of AS:
3.8: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync38.mspx
Oh I solved it....by making a hard reset - SURPRICE!
What a crap device this is...
That almost always does the trick....sometimes my MDA II will act really weird and a soft or even a hard reset will fix a seemingly incompatible app.
Hi,
Two months ago I've upgraded the ROM of my Polaris. At beginning I've got some problem in use ActiveSync (windows XP) or Mobile Center (Vista), after two or three try it worked. But now there is no way to connect the Polaris with any computer (I've tried 4 different computer with different version of Windows). I always get the message that the USB device is not recognized. Even Bluetooth does not work. I've tried all methods and hard reset the device several times, install and uninstall ActiveSync/Mobile Center no way to get connected. The situation become worst because the phone stopped working. So, please, could someone help me in trying to connect the Polaris with the PC?
The ROM that is installed is:
R 1.58.21.23
G 25.65.30.04H
D 1.52 PQ015
Thanks,
Adenilson

Repair you Polaris. Its hardware error with connection jack.
Ok,
I was wondering that could be a hardware problem, but expected that could solve the problem by using another ROM version. In fact, I've a big problem... Polaris is not sold in my country and I has no technical support for it . I brought it abroad. Anyway, thanks for your reply

Okay, from begining
Answer in points like I ask you questions
1. Can you enter bootloader? (serial text on screen without backlight)
2. Which Bootloader version do you have? It is written on screen when in bootloader mode at bottom (like 1.03v)
3. If you put your device into crandle (of course crandle is connected to usb in your pc/laptop) do USB text appear in place where Serial text was already?
4. Which system do you use? (Xp, vista, 7, linux, unix, amiga, commodore)
5. Do you have nk.nbf and Upgrade.exe or HimaUpdate(...).exe in THE SAME folder?
6. What happens if you run update application and click Next?
7. Did you tried to run in administrate mode?
8. Do you have x64 system?
9. Do you have himalaya? put out your battery and check if it is written PH10B or PH10A.
10. Did you tried another PC or another crandle?
11. Which rom you want to flash?
Answer here.

Hello all, I have a T-Mobile HD2 with WP7 on it. I tried using the Mango update from elfinazz but I get the following error when running DWI.EXE.
Error Description: USB init failed
Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp (1198)
HD2 has been running WP7 very stable for months, with Live services activated. When I originally put WP7 on it I installed MAGLDR 1.12. Today when I got the above error, I flashed it to 1.13 with no problems, so I think there might be a communications problem with DWI.EXE. I have also tried it on a different computer with the same results. I even tried downloading CustomRUU.exe and ran that from the folder.
When I connect my HD2 to USB, the message in the white area changes from serial to USB, so the phone is seeing the USB connection, but the computer doesn't. Also, if I run DWI.EXE and don't connect the HD2 I get the exact same error.
I am running it in administrator mode. Allow USB connections in Mobile Device center was checked at first, then I unchecked it. I can't find specific steps for upgrading from the original WP7 release to Mango, so I assume I am missing a step. I have been trying to get this working for a couple of hours now with no luck, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Solution ..
Hi, I had the same problem, don't worry its so easy to solve it
Reinstall or install depends the case the Windows Mobile Device Center, the same one you used with WM6.5 and the problem will be solved, why ? because this problem its a driver problem, if you are using windows 7 you need the drivers of your mobile, and this drivers will be given in Windows Mobile Device Center once you installed connect the mobile, will start to recognize the phone and drivers and then try to flash again ....
I had same problem and solved by doing this
Look at me desperate LOL
