Fix Broken Bootloader not working - Can some kind soul pleas

Hi,
I have 4.00.021 on my Asian XDA and decided T-Mobile is not good for me. I now have the well documented can't go back issue and guess what, my bootloader is 5.17 to make the insult even bigger... I tried the fix broken bootloader but get the following error : ... As you will notice I put the tool in c:\binaries as the long directory names were attributed to this problem earlier on. Any idea how I can overcome this riddle? Thanks a zillion in advance.
C:\binaries>pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0
'C:\binaries\pput.exe' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
ERROR: ITReadProcessMemory - Unspecified error
Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect

search and read old threads!

Thanks for your friendly reply. I did exactly as you told reviewed many threads and am none the wiser. The new fix broken bootloader tool gives me the error mentioned below and I could not see a resolution to that. I will try the old XDAwrit + SD Card reader option next but comparatively thats a very risk option as I understand it and hence my reoluctance.
If you know how to make fix broken bootloader work please spare me with a part of your wisdom and just tell me how. Thanks a lot for your help.

read this link http://www.xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2928
if you still cannot make it work, send to me, I will fix it for you

Thanks for your offer for help. I must be the miggest idiot on this forum. I still can't make it work... I read & read & read the link you gave me but I'm still none the wiser. Few issues I am stuck with :
In the thread you mention I see the reference to 'pnewbootloader bl515.nb0'
I do not have bl515.nb0 but I have bootloader_v5_15.nb0 from Jeff's tools and when I use this file I get the following error. My ActiveStink is working.
H:\build>pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0
Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect
Then I want to use the wallaby patch loader option so I refer to the following link but this link is not live any more.
updated version of wallaby patch loader at http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/download/wbt-1.5.tar.gz
What should be my next step? Should I try to fix whatevers wrong with the pnewbootloader or should I hunt down the wallaby patch loader option....
Totally confused. Thanks a lot for your help. Regards

my latest tools don't use 'pput' anymore, so you will encounter less problems
if you use the newest from http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html

Got it and tried it. Results are the same :
C:\binaries\build>pnewbootloader.exe bootloader_v5_15.nb0
Copying C:\binaries\build\itsutils.dll to WCE:\windows\itsutils.dll
Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect
Do you think this has anything to do with the protection T-Mobile builds into their ROMs? To re-iterate I have the 4.00.021 on.
Any other ideas? Thanks a lot for all your help. Regards.
Kerem

As per instructions in your text file I tried pmemdump and get the following. Not sure if this is of any help.
C:\binaries\build>pmemdump 0x80001880 0x40

I have the Same error with k_kirt when i try to down from 6.22 to 5.15 , Dont know what to do. Somebody help me.

billgate, please see
http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3162
Thanks to the help from friends on this site my problem is resolved. If you have a SD card reader/writer you can use the older version of XDArit to write the Wallaby patch and then bring your bootloader version to 5.15.
good luck.

K_kirk,
Could you please explain in detail?
Where can I find the bootloader 5.15? I have downloaded the file "wallaby-patch-tool.nb2"
What should I do now?
please help me!

This is long. Bear with me. I just did a cut n paste from a txt file I recorded so I wouldn't forget how to do this again.

Before you start:
Suggest that you back up PIM data with ActiveSync. Copy any other files you need to an
SD card or desktop/laptop computer. Try not to do a full backup and restore that later
as it will usually mess up the XDA. Re-installing your apps is the best way since PPC2002
and WM2003 are different.
Hardware that you need:
1. O2 XDA smartphone (obviously!)
2. Sync cradle
3. Internal/External SD card reader
4. Spare SD card (preferably 2)
Software you need to download:
1. Get cooked ROM or any other ROM. ROMkitchens at http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org

donpkong,
nice to see a fellow m'sian here.
Anyways, i'm currently on 6.22, downgraded my WM2003 to PPC2002, because of poor battery life and a DEAD vibrator after upgrading.
I"m trying to downgrade my 6.22 to a 5.15 because I have an inkling it's the root of the problems - IE vibrator not working.
Pnewbootloader doesn't work for me - it just says "Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect" so i guess the only hope is via SD-flashing.
Would like to get a few things clear here.. in a nutshell, what I have to do is :
1) Create Wallaby-diagnostics card
2) Create ROM image + 5.15 bootloader onto another SD card using XDArit options
then
1) Load up with patched diagnostics card (Wallaby)
2) Backup ROM + Bootloader (optional)
3) Select Restore SD
4) Insert SD, restore OS + Bootloader
Is there anything I missed out? I'm desperately wanting my vibration back because it's annoying to miss calls during meetings and stuff like that.
Thanks!

i did not have to downgrade from 6.22 to 5.15 and my vibrator works fine on WM2003. i do not know how to downgrade bootloader or have the need to do so.

What do i got to do if my xda lose bootloader.
Press and hold Power Button then Press Reset. Nothing appear.

@kavin
the same happened to my XDAII.
I would say, once you lose the bootloader and you, probably, don't want to play with JTAG, you can only send it to repair service...
buzz

Thank buzz_lightyear for reply.
But I can't send it because I'm living VietNam.
I give it to someone but they said that Nothing can do.
Oh....my god! I'll lost my xda...>>

Thanks donpkong
This is the amazing thread. Solve my problem that I have looked for solution for a long time. Thanks!!!

Calm down. Seems the process did not work. Now you will need your original rom and flash it back from bootloader mode.

How can i do this?

1. You connect you device to pc
2. Then you enter into bootloader in you device like this
"""""""
The bootloader is invoked by pressing down the Power and Voicedialer buttons simultaneously, and using the stylus at the same time to press the RESET button at the left side. Continue pressing the two buttons for a few seconds after pressing and releasing the reset button until the bootloader screen appears.
""""""
3. And then you run the .exe file , i mean the rom file... I think you can try any dopod's rom...
4. You are done
Here is a dopod's rom...

OK, i'm in bootloader mode.
But from where do i run this exe file, because active sync doesn't see my pocket pc?

I think i will suffer a PANIC ATTACK

now i'm wondering. Is p3300 the same thing with Artemis?
I don't have the guide of the pocket pc or anything else.
All that i have is the pocket pc, made by HTC and the cables.

Please, somebody HELP.
Anybody?

Same old ****
Im not so sure if this is comforting news, but I did the exact same just now, and I have the exact same results. I am stuck on the same place as well.
Should we CID unlock the phone for it to work with other ROMs? or what. the activesync does not recognize the phone, and neither does any other roms.
Anyone?

I cannot say that for 100% but as long as you have the original ROM that came with your device it should be possible to recover. I used the T-Mobile UK shipped rom cos I have MDA Compact III and it went ok. The ID in the ROM mached the one in the device. I might be wrong but that's what I know.

As you could read in the other thread, you're stuck now.
- CID unlocking your phone can't be done without a working phone.
- You can get back a working phone if you have your original rom only.
Please read the other thread and you will find the answers.

fragger believe me I read so many threads already, but it is still confusing! I understand that for example only the original will work. Fine, where do I find my original?? There is a tmobile NL version on the ftp of this site, but when I unzipped it, it had no executable file, and all I had was about 20 files with wierd extensions. How do I use them?
I tried many of the other versions too, but because the activesync does not recognize the phone, none will work so far. I tried a lot of them already, including the original tmobileUK one, and I get the invalid ID crap. Have no idea what to do now! Maybe you would know of anything else I can try.

There is no TMobile rom on this ftp server, only an ExtROM.
As far as I know, there is no TMobile NL rom available. So you can't fix your phone, you have to send it to the repair center.

I stupidly risked loading a new ROM without seeing anyone else's feedback first! (last time I will do that!)
This was the ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378704
I ran
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320155
then I loaded the ROM
It loaded to 1% then the device reset then continued to 2% and reset again then came up with error 297 "invalid vender id"
and reset again.
I now have
IPL 2.20.0002
SPL 2.28.0000
tri colour display which I have tried to fix using the MTTY program
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347700
and when I type "ResetDevice" I wind up back at the tricolour
When I plug in the USB it shows in the white/grey strip at the bottom of the screen but I now get errors like
"corrupted image" if I try to load my original ROM
or
"Invalid vender id" from other images
I dont recall the IPL being 2.20.0002 before!
I have tried the rename of the .nbh file on a freshly formatted (FAT32) memory card and boot and saw a "Checking SD" then "certificate not valid" message then back to the tri-colour screen TSoD (tri-color Screen Of Death).
Can anyone help me?
Yours
Leon

I've done some tinkering - I figured, the thing is dead, dead, dead. So... what the h.
Some interesting commands are available at the MTTY screen but I cannot find a reference anywhere to them and the onboard OS help is not helpful.
Cmd>password BsaD5SeoA
Pass.
<snip usual initialisation messages>
Interesting:
Cmd>set g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0
Cmd>ResetDevice
This makes the RUU indicator turn on in the top right of the tri-color screen
And this
Cmd>password BsaD5SeoA
Pass.
<snip usual initialisation messages>
Cmd>set MTTYDownloadImage = 1
Makes the screen go dark like when the Penguin Boot Loader file is transferred
Does anyone have any info on the commands that can be issued to the firmware?
Yours
Leon

Cmd>ruurun 1
Cmd>ResetDevice
Will give RUU in top right corner of Tri-Color

g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = FF ------- MEANS NOT CID UNLOCKED

Sadly, I had already read this and tried each of the ROMs listed in turn.
Incidentally your link is how I determined the command:

You'll be the 5th person I have heard of with the same problem which seems to be limited to OEM versions of the P3450, a false-positive from the CID unlocker and a "new" p3450 ROM.
Can you tell me what the branding of your mobile is?

I used USPL v 1.0

Okay that's two for two.
1. Which ROM file did you load?
2. Did it fail at 2% reset annd continue to 3% before failing giving a "Image corrupted" error some other error message?

i tried to load the same rom as you did. in general, i had exactly the same situation as you did. too bad that i did not read what you wrote before in the thread about thi rom

Hi VoyajMD
I am really sorry to hear you are in the same boat. We'll work together to cash our paper-weights in to working phones again if at all possible.
I just need to locate an original code signed RUU ROM from Orange and I believe that will get us all back on line. (I say *just* but you know how hard that might be!)
Any chance you could locate your original signed ROM image or get one from Orange Support In France? Are Orange support in France as bad as they are in the UK? (i.e. forget it they wont be helpful)

[Q] Upgrading & HardSPL problems

Hi everyone,
It happened to me a lot of strange things. I tried to upgrade my herald with a rom from Tribulattifather . The first thing I've done is to install Hardspl. I connected my phone lauched the .exe and it gave me an error by 1%. My phone was freezed with a white screen. I waited a long time and shut it down. From this moment it won't restart and I can only access to the rgb menu:
IPL 1.08.0001
SPL 1.08.0001
When I try to re-install the hardspl or the installer recomended in this post it raised an ERROR [300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.
For information I haven't got a SD card and I've done all this by USB cable.
Can enyone tell my how to continue?
Thank you very much,
The Aslan

right it's not recognized, i tried that.... on my Dopod C800/Wing/Herald
is this what you did?
1. Plug the MicroSD card to any working windows mobile phone?
2. Sync the working WinMo to PC.
3. do the perl thing psdread, perl typhoonn, psdwrite, and done right?
4. Copy any RRU/MOD/.nbh ROM to the MicroSD and rename it to heraimg.nbh
5. This time what's inside the MicroSD is the heraimg.nbh only
you tried to boot it, ooohhhhh.. it's not working.. just the 3 color screen.
and this the alternative way to solve.
if you downloaded the heradiag.nbh
1. Remove the MicroSD and plug it to card reader, or to your other WinMO.
2. Copy the heradiag.nbh
3. now there are 2 files your heradiag.nbh and your heraimg.nbh
4. plug again your MicroSD to your brick herald/wing/C800.
5. do the bootloader thing
6. there you go, you will be in diagnose mode.
7. select the flash.
8. the rest is yours to understand.
and your done.
--------------
If you successfully unbrick the phone.
download the HardSPL from Tribulattifather.
http://rghost.net/download/1209299/...609840c3c0331d88971/HardSPL (Wing-Herald).zip
extract all files, and read the PDF file, do what exactly it says.

Thank you SmaRkieS for your answer.
I couldn't post a reply while I had no time this two last weeks.
What you said me didn't work. I bought a MicroSd card reader and created a goldcard with a french topic. Worked well but I've an error when he cheks the SD contents, blue bar, red message : Invalid certificate. I tried with revskills and other heraimg.nbh but it's always the same error.
Did you know already this problem? how can I go on?

Remove Hard SPL from bootloader
Hi,
Anyone out there knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader of Wing. Problem is my mobile displays splash screen, then switch offs by itself. Its been quite some time that I have hardspled it and have been using it. But recently I am facing this issue, so I am trying to move to original RUU and try if it works.
So for that anyone knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader, because I am only able to enter bootloader. Moreover I tried several original roms from Flash Center as well as through SD card as well, but still be SPL version is 4.70.yang. Anyone knows any other alternative.
Also, if anyone has faced similar problem then kindly advice how you resolved.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Pankaj

So, after weeks and weeks searching, reading topcis and trying solutions I've finnaly succeed.
If anyone is interested, here are my steps:
First I read a topic were I found a SPL.nbh in a dutch rom, renamed it in HERAIMG.nbh and with my goldcard flashed it. Then I looked for an original french Herald rom: flashed it. I installed Hardspl (before put the three cabs up on the phone). Finally installed the rom of Tribulattifather.
My herald works fine yet.
Thank you for your replies,
Best regards,
The Aslan

Hi The Aslan
i'm having the same problem & same IPL & SPL as yours ,but i'm still stuck in the bootloader for a week & i can't flash any ROM , so can you plz give me IN DETAILS all what you did starting from the GOLD CARD till the ROM you installed .
I need help please it is important.
Best regards,
elnakah

Hi elnakah,
Here are my steps to unbrick the herald:
First download the dutch rom, take the SPL.nbh out and rename it HERAIMG.nbh. Put it on your goldcard with the heradiag. With the heradiag flash it. ( You will have the IPL at 1.08 and the SPL at 4.1)
Then, do a Hardreset; you can see the message who says : format sucessful or something esle and an image with the logo of htc will appear and desappear very quickly and you will return to the bootloader.(With the heradiag you have the possiblity to format your device in FAT you can do it but it's optional and just to be sure)
Flash an ORGINAL default rom
If it works, install correctly the hardspl.
Flash any rom you want
I hope I've helped you,
Regards,
The Aslan
