Followed but faulted - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

I am in Auatralia and I have an XDA.
I was running ROM 3.20.06 and Radio 4.21.00.
I read everything on here about upgrading to ROM 4.00.05 and figured that I was ready to upgrade. Many others experienced no problems when upgrading from 3.20.06 to 4.00.05.
The upgrade procedure was complete and I hard reset.
The XDA turned on and a white screen with "Test Only", "Not For Sale", A Microsoft Windows Powered logo and the Platform information appears and that is all that happens.
Is there any way in which to modify or bypass this screen which it will not pass?
Is there any way to reset the ROM via hardware?
Does anyone know how to do anything when this happens?
Please help me....Thanks

Wallaby upgraded and now frozen at ozup

I tried upgrading for the first time. I picked Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition (3.04) from the following link:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ROMVersions
The upgrade was successful however my wallaby freezes at the ozup. I can reach the bootloader if I hold the power button and soft reset.
I do not have a backup of my rom image (it was initially T-Mobile PPC2002 3.14.40_ENG)
Which rom image should I use with the XDAtools to flash back? Where can I get that rom?
Please advise.
You could try the 4.01.12 ROM IMage, but the problem can still exist. There have been a few devices, that are just working with PPC2002.
If you really have such a device i would suggest the 3.17.03 ROM....

My Qtek doens't pass the red, green, blue screen

Hello,
Well to explain my problem. I had the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID flashed onto my O2 XDA Neo. No problems, but sometimes I couldn't go back to desktop because "programms" didn't want to close. So I went to look for a dutch firmware. I found one and tried it. It didn't work, but my XDA Neo was already at 1% and didn't go further. So I pulled the cable out of the telephone. Now it doens't pass the red, green, blue screen when starting the phone. Hard reset doens't help eather. Wenn I connect it to the computer, activesync says "not connected".
On the screen it says:
RUU
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
Please help me out, because I really don't know what to do anymore
Encountered your case before while trying to downgrade with no success.
I suggest you try to turn back to dopod wwe rom and install it again before further attempts to brick your device.
Active sync tells it's not connected, that's normal because you connect a device which has no rom now.
You should see "USB" at the bottom of the screen once connecting to PC. Then start the rom update.
It will try to discover what's in your pda and will report you "nothing", which is logic. Click update and go. It should proceed...
Good luck.

Thank you so much! I reflashed my old rom, and the device works fine again. But is it not possible to run an older rom? I would like to have the dutch version.
If your device is Sim unlocked, you may try the famous specific rom availIable at:
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=437&PN=1&TPN=1
This rom is for downgrading in a first step and cid unlocking in the second step exclusively and not for continous use . Once these two task are done, you can install any ROM you want.
Reminder: You can not install other language without CID unlocking.

It is not true. You can install any language ROM using NoVendorID patched reflashing utility.
Yes and no!
If the ROM to write is never "patched rom update utility" will bypass the CID check step and continue to install.
But it the new rom is older (ie 2.09 to write over 2.13) problems start there and you get an error in most cases. In that case we need to downgrade.
I've faced and practiced both cases.
Thanks for details...

Artemis USPL v.01 upgrade error with 270 code, Please HEPL

Hi Profs,
there are some problems with a Artemis Update SPL (USPL) v.01. I've found this problem is several topic but there was no solution for it.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1713596&postcount=1
The problem:
use USPL to get rid of the CID....count goes up to 100% screen shows black with green text, then pops to white. I need to do a soft reset to get it running again.
Then i use ROM Update Utility to update my p3300....and it still keeps hanging on 3%....damn. i get mad...!! Have read almost all here online...no virusscanner, no firewall....I use win XP.
i even tried without memory card and phone card....and nothing seems to work.......
ipl 1.14.0001
spl 1.14.0000
gsm 02.07.90
os 1.14.0.0
Who has any clue...?
With other words:
I've just got back my P3300 from repair, they changed the main board. With the previous main board I was able to upgrade the device and I was using the B&B versions.
But with this new board I'm not able to upgade the SPL. When I try to upgade the device after and start the start_uspl .exe the 10...20... ....100 my device become an interresting "blue screen" status and only the reset help to get out from this status. If I start the RomUpdateUtility.exe after the upgrade I got the error message #270
IPL: 3.13.0001
SPL: 3.13.000
GSM: 02.94.90
ROM version: 3.13.405.1.WWE
ROM date: 8/28/07
ExtROM version: 3.12.405.102
This is not the solution for the problem. I've tried it:
Plug in USB cable. Hold voice recorder button and press reset button. Bootloader will appear (Three color stripes). Then you may flash up ROM. (This works only for RUU installation types, not for PDAmobiz modified installator) Original english HTC P3300 ROM you may download form here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...temis_Upgrades ....
Please help us to solve this problem....
Probably the same problem
This should be the same:
Hello POF,
I was directed to this link by Rudegar because I want to change the french ROM to English ROM.
The relevant data of my PDA is:
The version of the ROM: 1.14.406.1 FRE
Date of ROM: 9/27/06
Radio version: 02.67.90
Protocol version: 4.1.13.28
ROM extension version: 1.14.406.101
I tried exactly the way you described in the USPL_manual and everything went well till I got to a stage where I was asked to click the update button which I did. After then there was a window which showed "updating from current version to version 9.99". I was confused at this point but clicked "continue" and after this stage I got an error message and there was no longer a connection bw my PDA and my computer.
Thanks,
Jonat

Problem "lost connection PDA-PC"
Hi,
first I would like to thank you for goooood job to many people here !
Back to my problem. I have HTC Artemis (T-Mobile MDA Compact III), OS WM6 T-Mobile Czech version.
I ran start_uspl.exe on my computer. The part in DOS based screen seems to finish everytime OK, but finally the connection with PC is lost. Therefore when the PDA Phone ROM Update Utility starts cheking version the error "lost connection with PC" appears . PDA stay in "black screen" mode and only hard reset start it again as usual.
Does anybody have the same problem? Any idea, how to solve it ?
Thanks

When the screen goes white, don't restart. Just start flashing to the new ROM. Worked for me
Unfortunately it not a white screen, it a black one, connenction lost with the PC, and only the reset PDA helps to restart the unit again....

Same situation as above. Depending on the Artemis, the screen might go white or black. Just don't freak out and keep on flashing the USPL. It WILL work and then reboot. Then you can flash the actual ROM you want.
Hello from an absolut newbie trying his first upgrade,
And I have just experienced the same problem than lenocs.
I have run start_uspl.exe, but when the screen is suposed to become white or dark, it becomes dark and the artemis is in fact totally off and connection is lost.
Anyway I supossed that it was because the scrren got black and I tried to run the update utility, but I´ve got an error (the terminal is disconnected or similar) and nothing happens.
I have had to soft reset the terminal and fortunatelly it seems that I still have my previous ROM and it seems that it works. But, do you know if there could be some "side effect" because the first step of start_uspl script?
Anyway I would like to move to WM6, so, any suggestion would be really appreciated.
Thank's a lot
When you restart, what is the USPL number?
Ooopppssss!
I didn't pay attention.
As I've said, I'm a newbie, so I was just woried because I thought I had "bricked" my new atemis.
How can I know now the USPL number?
Anyway I tried the star_uspl again (I'm a crazy newbie) and it failed. The artemis went off almost inmediately.
Thank you very much for your help

solved ... at least for me
I think the problem is in SPL version 3.13 (or maybe anyone newer than 1.11).
Try different Artemis USPL - for me worked version from this page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_DumpedRoms
It's very confusional, because file sizes and also dates are the same as in unfunctional version, but this one worked.
Hope it'll help you as it helped to me.
Maybe this can help you
I bought a 8gb card the week before, so I needed to update the rom in order to have my new SDHC working. But whn I was trying to update the rom, through UPSL 1.1, I had an error. This was the first time I had an error because I have modified the room many times before. My error was about a CMD.EXE issue, something like Error code line 26 "can´t spawn cmd.exe" so I was not able to change my rom. What I did was to copy CMD.EXE from Windows/System32 and put in the same folder where I had the start_uspl file, and finally works!
Do not ask me why, but this was the only way I could make works the update process.
Just try.

do u have ur card in the phone while updating
you are suppose to remove the card
Problem solved (for me)
Hi,
i had the same problem error 270, 3% and lost connection with Activesync.
IPL: 3.13.0001
SPL: 3.13.000
GSM: 02.94.90
ROM version: 3.13.405.1.WWE
ROM date: 8/28/07
any way to upgrade was wrong ->> error 270
My good way was:
1. Downgrade to WM5 - original shipped ROM 1.12.405.1(link found on Wiki pages)
2. Under WM5 run USPL to unlock CID (now without any errors)
3. Final STEP - Upgrade to new ROM Artemis Touch 3.01 (without any errors by upgrade)
))
Now my Artemis seems to be OK.
I ran USPL with storage card inside the device...
no problem
switch SD card back to 2GB or smaller before USPL
Hi,
for me USPL did not work with my SDHC 8GB card but then I switched back to my previous 2GB SD card and then it works.
Perhaps the SDHC driver blocks USPL in some way.
Cheers,
Markus

The USPL msdos screen indicates that there is no connection at all in all percentage levels, then it bocomes dark and the 260 error whne installing the rom.
please help us soon !!!
we are in trouble!!
Same Problem : Screen shut down
Anybody can help us on this point ?
The only way to solve it is to remove the batterie during 30 min., then put it back and pray...
Then, for no reason, the screen shut down, a few minutes or days after
I've upgrade from WM5 to WM6 with the original Rom of HTC, it seems a little more stable but it shut down every 2 days when i'm lucky

i change to WM 2003 final, still same problem....after finish, only screen cannot enter the

Desperate Help needed upgrading 8125!!!

First of all I am so sorry to bother you all!!!, as I can see from 3 days of non stop reading here and e;sewhere, its not always liked to ask questions, but I am sorry I really need help!
I bought a 8125 cingular from eBay (bought a x01ht but it hasnt arrived)
I have read seriously so much I am now confused! But I have tried to research this 100%
when I got the phone yesterday, I first sim unlocked it with the "All HTC" unlocker.. then I used unlock ext rom wizard, and Likiwiz02 for the cid.. I did see it say "your phone is superCID" unlocked or what ever...
I then tried to flash with x2h_wm 6.5 and it went through the steps like it should and finished and said your rom is updated, BUT when the phone rebooted, it was like it went DOWN not up.. I lost alot of things and now it said G not E for network, I had less signal, and had the roaming Icon. Well, after that My XP computer would no longer recognize the device.. I would plug it in and it would charge, and the active sync tries to connect but after a few minutes it says it can not connect.
I am able to "sometimes" connect top my Vista" device, BUT I have not yet mastered being able to flash a rom with Vista... as I always get RUU is closing, because of error.. and it leaves my phone in bootloader RUU mode, so i have to reset it. I have tried the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723 and One time I was able to get pretty far without an errors from RUU, but it said I needed a newer version.. or something, and after that I am unable to do it do any RUU on vista, although most of the time I can get it to connect by going to the services- and restarting wm 2003 thing"
This is the details of my device (and yes I know is a G3)
IPL & SPL :2.25
gsn: 02.25.11
os: 2.25.11.1
Ext Rom: 2.25.11.102
Radio: 02.25.11
Rom 2.25.11.1 WWE (build 14928.2.2.0)
protocol ver: 4.1.13.12
My question is.. What am I doing wrong? How can I get either XP to connect, or Vista to run RUU?
Can I flash by sd card.. ( I have seen both yes and no, and am confused on how to do it)
Tweeks I have done is installed a cab to remove roaming icon, reg. changed the G to E for Edge... Speed it up bu changing mem. and I think that's pretty much it!
Scream at me and call me stupid, BUT Please help me.. There are 10000000000000 different HOW TO all over the place, and all are different, and I really just would like a little PERSONAL help from someone..
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Tony
Also.. On the Activesync issue.. I have uninstalled and delete all tracers on my xp laptop and reinstalled both the newest version , and when it did the same, I uninstalled and reinstalled an older version... Still the same!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Wizard
best thing is to start with reading the wiki
Read it over and over...
I am not just saying it when I say I have searched and searched!
UPDATE
Although I received no answers, I thought I would upddate... I am so embarrassed, as the active sync was an easy fix.. (disable Firewall) I cannot believe it is that simple, as it was working fine before with firewall..
Ok I am following the instructions now flashing with XP button rom, etc etc.. Will follow up later!
Ok progress!
Well, I was able to flash to phone to button rom, and then CID unlock it with lokiwiz, but My IPL and SPL are different. SO i flashed button rom again, and its still the same... Can I go ahead and flash back up, or what do I need to do?
IPL 1.01
SPL 2.25

OK... got it going again... flashing back down to button, the only one that would connect.. and I will build my way back up...
Sorry for posting so much.. and thanks for the help!
I have flashed to T mobile 2.26.10.2 , IPL/SDL are both 3.08 And I have tried several times to go beyond WM5.0 but It never loads.. Any advice...
Thanks
Connect the phone to the PC and run Wizard Service Tool and press Enab. RAPI + Unsigned Apps button.
Then press CID Actions Button and Read CID block, this will tell you if your CID unlocked.
Well, I will try that, BUT I am assuming since I have a Tmobile ROM on a ATT phone its no longer unlocked???
When I ran the unlocker it said it was now SuperCID unlocked or whatever..
I will do the Service tools and see.. and Post back soon! THANKS
It is locked!
OK.. I ran the tools and it said it was CID locked... this was the results (not sure if usefull or not)
Checksum : fb67d2a2
CID: WIZCNG01
Its funny because when I ran the other lokiwiz it said it was unlocked..
I tried to unlock it and it said downgrade SPL to 1.06 or less.. AND thats the problem... When I Loaded Button rom the 4 different times I have had to flash it.. THE SPL never changes down.. One time I flashed it, I repeated it 3 times as per some instructions i seen that if you flash it again it will change.. NOPE did not change, the IPL always changes, BUT SPL stays the same.. SO If I flash again, this is the results SPL 3.08 IPL 1.01
Can anyone help me .. maybe use a diffrent rom instead of button?
HELP PLEASE!
THANKS
Have you tried to go back to the original ROM?
Problem solved
I am still tinkering, and adding patches now... BUT I was able to get wm6.5 (VERY SLOW ON MY WIZARD) so I went back to button rom, and installed XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 ROM, and I LOVE IT!!! like I said I am still adding stuff and playing with it, but so far its better than WM6 I have on my Cheetah (treo750)...
I will add the steps I took , and trial and error steps, so other people that are impatient and ask questions like I did, will know what to do.,.. BUT let me play with my new toy for a while!!!
One question.. Should I stay with IPL/SPL 2.26? Or should I go back up to 3.08 or ?????
Thanks
