Dead - well Almost spv m5000

Hi,
I have been donated an Orange SPV m5000 to help with my disseration,
unfortunatly the rom as been tampered with or removed , well im lead to
believe. Due to this the phone no longer turns on, the only thing the handset will do is get to the bootloader screen.. after resetting the factory settings the handset still does not turn on. i think the handset therefore has no ROM files on it as I have tried to update using downloaded roms such as
Orange_SPV_M5000_v1.13.49_WWE
JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301
both say that they cannot communicate properly with the device...
using MaUpgradeUt_noID and following instruction posted the handset starts to update but then says that the updater is not compatable with the handset... any suggestions on how to load a new rom onto the handset would be greatly apprecieted or infact how to to fix this problem with limited technological knowlegde
thanks

I'LL GIVE YOU 50 QUID FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
****, not even I'd be that cruel.
First off I'm 75% sure your device is fine.
ROM chips are nigh on impossible to remove without breaking the device and doubly nigh-on impossible to put back in! No one in their right mind would even concider doing such a rash thing, espcially with something that costs this much!
Now I think the problem is the same as the one I had - these ROM upgrades can contain many separate updates which are then kind of glued together - the problem is (and the problem you may have) is that they don't all match what is already in your PDA.
You therefore have to do one of 2 things:
1) Find an upgrade that DOES match - but then you'd have to know what's already in there & then find a match - unlikely.
2) Make them match with a bit of jiggery pokery. read THIS:

Seriously dude, good luck!

Still Dead well almost
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, Ive been thru the directions on the link provided and still having no luck, am still getting a communications error - 101 from the update ... am thinkin ive got the incorrect orginal roms ... does any1 know where i can find the orginal roms for a UK Orange SPV m5000 ( am currently using a rom that gives me operator name as Qtek and WWE - the name of the file is on my orginal post)

Many thanks

Flash It Again
1. Download This:
http://www.business.orange.co.uk/se...c=PaDPage&cid=1044130840493&mid=1044129390154
2. Make sure u are not using a USB Hub
3. Make sure u are using the proper USB Lead!!!
4. Install Active Sync 4.1 On your Computer (it needs the USB Driver Within this Program to communicate with your UNI.
5. If you have followed all the above correctly your SPV will flash
especially if it is going into bootloader mode.
If you get country error or comm error, hit update AGAIN, DO NOT Disconnect.

IF the upgrade wont go 100% thru, try upgrading the radio only by deleting all the .nbf files except the radio_.nbf then run MAUpgradeUt_NOID.exe

Up and Running finally .... thanks
Just to say that my SPV M5000 is now up and running.. thanks to Andy and comp.solutions for helping me out, just followed ur instructions took a few attempts but its all gd now
Many thanks

Damn! Bang goes my 300 quid profit!
No, seriously dude, you don't know how much 'inner glow' that gives me to know that we have helped you recover what may have seemed a lost cause.
Well done! :wink:
Now you can spend the next month trying to figure out how to get things to work 'properly' on the bloody thing..... :lol: (i.e. guess what I've been trying to figure out for the last month: Bluetooth, WiFi, ActiveShyte, installing programs, discovering what a 'uni' is, what 'BT' is blah blah blah.... :roll: )

Fixed M5000
Glad to Help, Enjoy :wink:

02 xda exec upgrade to imate

I want to upgrade my 02 rom to the imate rom
which imate rom supports the aku2 patch, as o2 dont know when there going to release this support.

this is also my question, is it possible to use Imate Jasjar ROM for O2 Exec, and where i can get it , then i can use O2 software on new ROM ? Thank you.

YES!
I upgraded my O2 Exec to the new i-mate ROM and man.. it's like owning a completely different machine.
plenty of memory left ( i guess memory leaks were mostly fixed)
dazzling speed.
machine doesn't get stuck several times a day.
I am happy.
You have the official ROM. Search through it, I don't know in which thread I saw it, but the filename is: JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.zip
You should be able find it here using the search button.
Then you need to use a tool called maupgradeut_noid_645.exe
Also available here. It will allow to install the JASJAR ROM on O2 Exec. But I think your warrenty will voice.. unless you revert back to the O2 ROM which is downloadable from my-xda.com
MOBILER

Sorry again, i have this question, my XDA Exec is unlocked by deffault, after updated with the Imate ROM, is my Exec still unlocked ? Thank you.

yes your exec will still be unlocked. I have an exec with a Orange simcard and the latest imate rom. No problems.

hi,i have a xda exec from 02,i want to upgrade to a imate rom.where i can download this rom?,how can i read a manual to upgrade this rom?
thanks

From the link under i-mate in the wiki page for universal
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Upgrades
go to ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/
Get the file JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.zip. About 64Mb. Unzip the file twice & you will get the readme.doc file for the instruction.

Any idea where i can find maupgradeut_noid_645.exe? Tried search and tried the ftp, no luck.

I think I used this version when I upgraded O2 XDA Exec to JASJAR rom. Didn't run into any problems

Thanks for your replies and PMs, i-Mate rom is now installed

Also got fed up with waiting for O2 update and tonight loaded the imate rom and push email is working nicely . I will try and post some instructions tomorrow if I get chance.

what should be the final specs
mine are ROM 1.13.82 WWE
rom date 11/30/05
radio 1.09.00
protocol 42.42.P8
Ext ROM 1.13.188 WWE
ihave downloaded imate JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship should I update with this my O2 EXEC
Please advise

Here is the process as promised. There isnt too much too it so hopefully you will be able to understand my ramblings.
You need the Imate JASJAR rom file which I downloaded from
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Universal/Shipped_Complete_Updates/
The file that you need is JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.zip.
First thing to do is to extract the files in the exe. There are two ways you could do this.
You can do this by running the exe file this will extract the files into a temporary directory in your profile.. for example c:\documents and settings\username\Local Settings\Temp, look for a very recently created directory in there, don’t ok the error message that you get when you run the exe as it will delete the temporary files. Just copy the files out of the temp directory somewhere else.
OR
You can use winrar to extract the files from the exe. Extract all the files into a single flat directory. Remove all directory structures so that you are left with just one directory containing all the files. (didnt try this way but I presume it will work)
Then download this file
ftp://xda:[email protected]/BlueAngel/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip
Extract the .exe in there to the same directory containing all your other files.
Then you need to make a small change to one of the text files. Look in the directory for
RUU.conf
Open it in notepad and add this line
[CHECKCEID_TYPE]=1
then save it
That’s about it…..
Usual wavers at this point.. upgrading flash may lead to dead device.. do so at your own risk… invalidate warranty…etc etc
Once you have plucked up the courage connect your device up to Active sync and run the exe file that was contained in the MaUpgradeUt_noID.zip file that you downloaded.
It seemed to take around 30 mins for the whole update process.
Im just going through adding my applications again and setting up the Vodafone GPRS configuration but so far seems fine and push email works nice and fast so I am pleased I have made the change.

Hi jwarbutron,
Thanks for the walkthrough, Im following your instructions and have now started the upgrade.
I got past the screen where it tells me my current version numbers and what the new versions will be. I said OK, go for it, and now its displaying the 'Checking the information on your device .. please wait ..' screen, I presume I just wait for 30 mins or so and the upgrade is complete? There isn't a progress bar or another screen Im supposed to see?
Cheers
Nas

hanks jwarbutron,
Your procedure works like a charm Thanks once again . Pl let me know how to get original #D phone pad interface

Unfortunately it didn't work for me, I left my phone plugged in for about 4 hours, it still just displayed the checking page, and now my phone wont start. Switching it on, I see some text in portrait mode saying usb at the top, and v1.00 at the bottom.
I'll dig around this forum to see if I can find a solution.
Nas

Third attempt looks to be good though! Got the progress bar, upgrading now... :lol:
Nas

Just updated last night, and good grief the imate ROM is so much better.
Its much smoother, quicker and generally a much more pleasant experience.
Very much recommended to anyone who who has the Exec.
Cheers
Rich

Well, my upgrade completed, but I still get the portrait page with USB at the top and v1.00 at the bottom. The upgrade said it had completed successfully, is there a step I have missed?
Cheers
Nas

Im starting the upgrade again to see if I missed anything, I have the screen with the progress bar, so I know its doing *something*.
While its going, any ideas what I might of missed?
Thanks
Nas

How to update ROM on O2 Orbit-solution

All,
I've exchanged many emails with the imei.check.co.uk team and also met personally one of these guys in order to be able to upload a new ROM to my O2 Orbit. I had excatly the same problem as many of you with ending the uploding process with "model invalid id" error message.
Now I'm happy to say we do have a solution.
So if you want to change your ROM (any), simply follow these instructions:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Of course you can publish the instructions...
BUT PLEASE put a BIG WARNING! It will crash the phone in case you don't have a valid key file to perfom the last step: RUN THE UNLOCKER AGAIN AFTER THE ROM MODEL SWITCH TO RECOVER FROM THE DATA CRASHED MESSAGE!
Hello,
we found a way to flash ANY artemis roms in ANY Artemis look alike device (HTC Hero too).
Tools you need:
-hexworkshop from http://www.bpsoft.com/downloads/
-Any rom
-winzip or winrar
-http://www.imei-check.co.uk/C3v1Unlock.zip
a valid UNL file for your phone.
install hexworkshop and winzip/winrar
Take any rom for example: ART_HTCWWE_11240501_026790_WWE_Ship.exe
in explorer, right click on it and select "Extract files..."
Now it will unpack all the files
You'll have now "HTCWWE_shipsigned.nbh"
right click on it and Click "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop"
You'll see on the 5th row ARTE10000
Make it ARTE***** and save file
Now right click on ROMUpdateUtility.exe and "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop"
Search for word password.it will find it at 0x3E0B0 after password replace "BsaD5SeoA" with "IMEICHECK" and save the .exe file
Now connect the phone to the pc (normal way). run the C3v1Unlock.exe
when is asking for UNL file, disconect the phone from pc, press cancel, and
close the unlocker.
Now connect the phone back to the pc (in this mode it is) and run the
ROMUpdateUtility.exe
Now follow the instructions as the upgrade it will work.
After upgrade done, run the unlocker again and this time select the correct UNLfile.
Task Done.
C3 after flashing with any WIFI roms it will STILL not have WIFI!!!
Regards,
IMEI-CHECK Team
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Cheers, Martin

YESS, I have changed my GER rom to new HTC official ENG Rom, you are the best!!!!!! It's very simple to do...
yuppyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
the next step is.... backup the ROM I'm search ITA ROM form my HTC 3300.
see you later...

Good Discovery,
But the key is: We will have to pay 38USD for the "Proper UNL file" which is unique for every IMEI. Is it right?
Yeah, Thanks mr. Martin who is from Imei-Check Team. But we are still looking for a free solution.
Regards!

Tamagochi,
yes, first you have to go to imei.check and pay for the unlocking program and the unique .unl file.
P.S. I'm not a member of imei.check, just had the same problem as many Orbit users here...you can find my previous thread.

Works great on all versions.
Great support from the boys from emeicheck

Question about directions
Okay, I'm gonna try this. Do I still follow these directions exactly even though I have already unlocked the CID?
Also, when you see the line "ARTE1000" do you actually replace the "1000" part with the little stars? Sorry, I'm really new at this!
Thanks!

Yes you must do it all.

HELP
Everything went smoothly but when the device rebooted, it want me to "align the screen". It doesn't seem to be able to detect the stylus touching the screen! Can't get past that screen! Anybody know what I could have done wrong?

REF: HELP (Never Mind...)
I DID IT, I DID IT, I DID IT!!!! Just had to wait a minute or two and then everything seemed to work fine!!! TomTom is there, my WiFi is working! Thank you MAROSV and FRANCOBANCO!!!! If I can do it, ANYBODY can!! THANK YOU!!!

Hi KleineMaus,
I am wondering which ROM u used on your orbit that includes tomtom?
Or do you just mean you still had tomtom stored on your menory card?
Cheers, Towelie.

hi, I've just used the last HTC offical Rom (see xda ftp site..) that include TomTOm + 1 city map
byebye

Hi, I used the ROM on the Wiki page Dopod|English|DOPOD001|ARTE1****|1.25.707.2 ??/??/0?|1.25.707.104|1.25.0000|02.69.90|4.1.13.30| [Download|ftp://xda:[email protected]/Artemis/Shipped_Complete_Updates/ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe]|[Thread|http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286639]
It worked like a charm. The only problem I had was that when the Orbit re-booted after the process finished, it didn't seem to detect the sylus. I just waited five minutes and then it worked. Guess it was still getting settled in with it's new ROM. I don't know where I had the TomTom before I started the update, but it installed the German maps which were there before but as a bonus it gave me a English speaking voice which I didn't have before. It came with a German voice and I couldn't change because I had not yet upgraded the memory and had no room. So, my update was super! The only little thing is that once I changed the screen color back to blue instead of that terrible green, I couldn't get the phone part (dialing pad) to change to blue. No biggie, as now I can use my Orbit in English. I can live with the green phone pad! Maybe somebody will tweak that one. Hope this wasn't more info than you needed....

KleinMouse,
the dialing pad can be easily changed as well....just do a little seach on this Artemis forum and you will find many links pointing to skins available for WM5 phone edition.

O2 Orbit ROM upgrade info
Hi,
my o2 orbit has ROM 1.25.206.2 WWE. I wanted to know if this is the latest ROM available for my phone. I got my phone 10 days ago and i gotta do a soft reset on it every day. I had the same kind of problems with o2 Atom. But most of the issues were corrected once the ROM was upgraded. Please someone update me on my situation. Thanks

I tried the steps but i'm always getting the ERROR[300] : INVALID UPDATE TOOL - This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer Update Utility
Anyone who can help me here? I already tried different ROMs but always the same message

Did you unlock with imei-check? What is your model ID ARTExxxx ?

Yes i did. My Model ID is ARTE100

Hmm, but the steps described above are necessary to follow only if your model is Orbit (ARTE200). If you have HTC P3300 or Dopod p800W or Artemis or MDA compact 3, then you don't need to do it this way. The only thing you need to do is to unlock with Imei-check. If it still doesnt work, contact their help desk.

Ok i see, very strange indeed. I did the unlock with the stuff from Imei-check but i still get the message ERROR [244] : INVALID MODEL ID . If i try the steps from your post #1 , i get the described error obove. I'll try to contact the guys from imei-check, i hope they can help me

Hi Kleine Maus, I read with great joy that you succeeded and I would like to feel the same way.... Could you kindly reply to me and give me some detailed instructions to follow? Hopefully this will work for my HTC P3300....Thanks in advance.... I really appreciate it. Best SiperX

HELP ME P3300 Does not upgrade to WM6 Cause Error 260

Hi to everybody.
I would want to set you a very strange problem that has happened to one friend of mine. He has installed the original ROM wm5 and he wants to pass to wm6, once connected the pda to the computer activesync unfortunately it tries to syncronize him but remains to syncronize to the endless (1° strangeness) one.
Later starting the official updating htc downloaded by the site, continuing with the instructions and reaching the prophetic moment in which the pda is disconnected by activesync and puts on in formality bootloader to adjourn from the prophetic error 260 that I have documented and I bring here you him:
Me being a little hacker and almost all knowing the methods to upgrade the ROM I have recommended him to try to put in formality bootloader to extract the content of the original file and to make to depart the file ROMUpdateUtility, but also them error 260. Not giving me for defeated I have tried the last method from me known, the updating from micro sd card.I have dictated him footstep footstep what had to do but not even this time of it to wanted to know to adjourn him (2° strangeness, doesn't know however if has correctly done all finding himself him in the Marche and me in Sicily ). I think that can treat more specifically him of the pc of the operating system, even if he has told me that it has the xp.
Now I put me in your hands, aspect suggestions on as to resolve.
I thank you in advance
And excuse me for mine bad bad..... English

To get your P3300 back to live
Don't worry if things goes wrong sometimes.
1.What you can do is maybe a good option if you have a P3300 without a
provider then you can better going
to the website of Htc register yourself (its free!) Then register
your model of your Htc Product.
Go to the Htc club. you will find your originale udate rom!!! This is also
to find it here.
2. There is a nother option.
copy your RUU_singned img to a sd card and put the sd card bac to
your P3300.
Start the bootloader by pressing the both key rec. and power
and hold em when your do a reset.
You will see a 3 color line on your screen then you will see
the install progres from your img.
wait and follow the instruction on that display.
I had also a problem a month ago but and this option by the sd card
did working fine for me.
Now I update the software and also the dial pad to vista look. That is
realy awesome!
It's working fine and do its job what this model has to do!
Succes and good luck!

PLEASE I need help! I have an htc p3300 and when I try to update it goes up to 3% and turns off. There isn't any rom that I haven't tried but noone worked . Is there anything I can do ? Thanks in advance

...
takes sd card out..
you done uspl.. if not.. click it in my signature..

HTC HERO 110 Dead, Tried everything.

Hello everyone.
1st of all, i'm so tired of searching in this whole forum regarding my issue. 2 days so far and no luck, so please if i missed some posts that would be unexpected.
If this post is not in the right place please mods relocate it because i couldn't get the main forum for my kind of phone.
I'm from Latin america, I got a HTC HERA110. I don't know if it's unlocked or not.
The main issue is that the phone is totally dead. The only thing i get is, i think is like a bootloader, it has RED, GREEN, BLUE screen and prompts and nothing more. I tried several key combinations with camera key, soft key, power key, even that little reset dot above SD slot. Nothing works. Only information i can get is this
IPL 4.24.0002
SPL 4.24.0000
I brought my ph to my local service provider tech support but they said there is no luck for my phone and i can't just leave it like this. But i know XDA-Devs are even better than those idiots. I got another HTC Juno (T-Mobile Shadow) and here i found several useful info and i started learning related to Windows Mobile based phones.
I read something regarding HardSPL and that stuff and since my IPL,SPL is greater than 1xxxx several posts explained i can go ahead and reflash the OS.
I tried that HardSPL stuff but most of them required to have the phone alive to store some cabs on it and install them so since my phone is dead, that's not gonna work.
So far i realized my ph is hardware similar to T-Mobile Wing, HTC P4350, HTC P4351, HTC P4350, HTC HERALD. So i decided to re-flash the whole OS...
So i tried to get some NHB files. I got the Original on T-Mobile Website and some others for HTC HERALD and HTC P4350. I actually tried with another one called HTC ATLAS.
My Ph is been connected to my laptop via USB. I got Windows 7 x64, i don't know if that is a problem. So i started trying all those RUU flashers.
Before 4%-5% of the proccess the screen on my ph prompted a progress bar and somehow it goes blank and i got some errors such like INVALID VENDER ID (with HTC ATLAS and T-MOBILE WING), INVALID MODEL ID (with HTC P4350), UPDATE ERRROR (with HTC HERALD).
I tried with that NHB tool to extract the NHB files ( this is, supposly, to fix INVALID MODEL ID) but it didn't work, after tried that one i got UPDATE ERROR. I even try with that GoldenCard stuff with an SD card but i couldn't even export the .img file, i got an error on the cmd lines and inside the Pearl Manager i can't fine XdaDevelopers packages.
At this time i'm really frustrated and so tired. I don't know if my ph is branded to any company here such like Movistar or whatever. The only thing i know is that every single thing i tried promptes errors.
I would really appreciate some help here. Thank you and the best lucks for you.

The HTC Hera is the T-Mobile Wing no? And I think its the HTC Herald not the Hera...
Also isn't it based upon Windows Mobile rather than android. I don't think this is the correct forum for you.

yes this is the wrong forum. i got the post's name wrong is not HTC HERO it's indeed HTC HERA but somehow moderators moved my post to the wrong place.
now I finally made my gold card works however it's not working. I got alos the heradiag.nbh in order to flash using the SD goldcard, but now the main issue is that i can't move into the diag tool with the keyboard. i'm pressing several keys but the only thing it's doing is a VIEW CHECKSUM screen when it prompts the whole nhb checksum but i can't make it perform the flash. Need help!

Thread moved to Herald section.
