Upgrade error, please help me?

Hi !
I have a problem with upgrading ROM. When I am
upgrading the error message is appeared " Error
Serial/USB port....." something like that. But the
device starts to upgrade with progress bar, and it
does not start yet just appear the upgrade message.
After error message the Program A shutdown itself
without restart to upgrade again. I don't know what to
do? And I unplug it from its cradle and try to
softreset and hardreset. I hope that it will be back
to my windows, but it still shows the upgrade message
and progress bar. And after 2 or 3 hours the screen
become black and white horizontal zebra. How can I
restore to my pocket pc 2002?
Best reguard,

You have to use SD card with a card reader/writer to load the ROM nbf file on the card .. the chances are good that you didn't loose the boot loader

Hope !
It mean my XDA doesn't die yet. I've read this forum for a few days and I found the advice for rescue my XDA, and you show me the key so I'm very happy. The program is XDArit v1.02, and I have MMC 256MB but I didn't buy a Card reader yet. I'm not sure that MMC can do. The instruction in that topic is not clear for me, so would you mind if I need some details for doing this from you.
Thank you in advance,

I didn't use MMC card for ROM flashing before, so I can't confirm it works.
Use XDAtools instead if XDRit. Cope the .nbf file to the SD card then go to the boot loader (soft reset while holding power)

Thank you very much for your reply imediately.
The XDATools that I've downloaded, it doesn't work properly because the message is "Missing RAPI.dll". Where can I get that file?

install activsync

Oh ! I forgot my pc doesn't have ActiveSync. So it was missing. Thank you very much I will install it. :lol:

CHECKSUM does not match

Hi there,
I have searched for this problem and found various suggestions involving xdarit etc but none seem to help.
I am getting the above message following a ROM flash, using sd card writen with xdarit. I have tried 3 different roms all producing the same result. Originally tried flashing with a w2003 rom but would be grateful to get anything working!!
The xda will now only show bootloader and some checks.
Wallaby bootloader 5.15
Anyone able to help?
Kind regards

Have you tried another SD-Card? MAybe there is a problem...
Flashed my device about 50 times, and had sometimes (about 2 or 3 times) the same problem.
Reflashing worked then fine...
Stefan

Thanks
I have tried anther sd card with the same result.
FYI I am formating sd cards FAT before writing rom to them
Could I be using the wrong rom?
Kind regards

maybe a corrupt file sometimes files taken from the internet gets damaged on their way to you

Where should I obtain a bog standard rom?

not sure what a bog rom is but here he have many roms
http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/

bog standard AKA original basic unaltered rom
Thanks for the link, I have been using these roms but will try try again.
Q Should xda be on mains power when flashing or does it make no difference ?

yes it should have power from the cradle or the power connetor

Thanks
I am downloading another rom will try again.
Kind regards

Hi
I have just downloaded a new rom and written to sd with xdarit, flashed and received following message again.
"CHECKSUM is not correct"
Could this have anything to do with the formatting of the sd card?
Anyone have any more suggestions
Kind regards

should not as far as i know iso tool should give the sdcard it's own format which only the xda can read
and of cause the sd card have to be 64MB or over a 32MB card will not do

Hi
I am using 64Mb SD cards.
Just failed again, here's what I did.
Downloaded ROM, copied it to SD with axdrit, message "xdarit successfully copied image of 65026 blocks.
Inserted card into xda, got :-
Wallaby Bootloader v5.15 GSM OK screen then:-
SD Download
Card Type:
CE OS
Press Action to Download or REC to Exit.
Pressed action and got:-
Please wait for download
PRG 00000000
END 02000000
"Flash Writing"
Followed by :-
Download completed
CheskSum is not correct
COLD BOOT TO RESET
What is going wrong?

is that a problem? i remember getting the checksum is not correct problem as well in the end. but after cold reset, the device worked fine. or so it seems to. should i be worried?

How to get a Wallaby to read the rom from the SD Card!

problem: radio stack upgrade failed (using the siemens upgrade) and now I get a GSM error and eventually a partial pocket pc desktop with no start menu or access to an explorer window.
OK, I used XDA tools to copy the rom to the SD card (1GB card), inserted in the Wallaby, held the power and soft reset the device, I get the boot loader v5.15 and then a GSM Error. From there, nothing. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? Does the SD card need additional files or should it be formatted a certain way? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

No additonal files are required. Thr progress you describe is the normal....
Are you using an internal SD-Card Writer? They make often problems.
YOu can try dumping your old ROM to SD and check if it will work with this backup. If this is the case the problem is your Card writer.....
Instructions to do this could be found here:

Siemens SX56 Upgrade Issue GSM Error - Upgrade failed
so I should try using a different card writer? If so, I have an external one that I can try. Should the boot loader still show the GSM Error with the rom on the SD card?

yes i tried it.. "checking sd card" then again goes to bootloader mode.. tricolor..

Make sure that your SD card is formatted in FAT32....
Also that your .nbh file is renamed and place it on the root of your SD card.
Maybe this will succeed

Yuki/XBmod v2 storage error

Every time I try to install the Yuki/XBmod v2 ROM, I keep getting this damn error on the phone when it boots:
There's a storage error.
Your storage card seems to have changed-we need you to use the card that came with your phone.
Please turn off your phone and then make sure that the card is properly inserted in its slot.
I have followed the instructions countless times, formatted my SD card many times, and I keep getting that error.
It works when I don't have the SD card in the phone.
Can someone please help me with this error and tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks! I would really, REALLY appreciate the help!

Have you tried "Do hard reset after all update if you have freeze or any problem
(When Magldr show WPH LOAD 12345 GO GO GO Press Vol+ & Vol- then after the new screen press VOL- twice.)"
with sd in.

Yes. I have done that as well and still gives me that storage error.
Could it be the SD card that I am using? Or am I doing something wrong?
I really want to get Mango so bad!

what OS are you at now (settings/about/ os version)?

did you prepare card?
-Enable 24MB extra memory in Magldr services
-Delete MBR of SDcard in Magldr services
if you done this and card not work, try this:
boot without sdcard... make hard reset (settings - about - reset)
upgrade with zune to 7392
make hard reset again (settings - about - reset)
insert card, boot and upgrade to mango...

Right now, I am on 7.7004.
I can only use the WP7 ROM without SD card. The ROM does not want to take my SD card because of that "storage error"
I don't understand why?

sd card not compatible with current driver... again: you must try upgrade to 7392 without card....
maybe this not solve compatibility but if not solve, then you know to must buy new card...

I updated to 7008 from Zune but Zune doesn't detect anymore updates from this point on. Zune is supposed to find the 7392 update but it just tells me that my phone software is already up to date. Why is that?

try force update.... when you hit update after 2-5 seconds terminate internet connection... this maybe you must do few times before update shown

I get this error two, and I've also dual booted WP7/Android in the past then went back to NAND/CLK Android and now want to try WP7,5/Android again but now it doesn't work. I keep getting that error. So I know the sdcards work (8GB Kingston C4)
