I bought my xda atom today and tried the newest rom in the o2 Website buttttttt.... im stucked at step 5 - upgrade radio stack!!!!
huhuhuhuhu! please help i i tried doing the procedure 10x already.
my atom is useless its stucked at the black screen with the text "upgrade utilty"
Since you've tried so many times, the usual 'do it once more' doesn't seem an option to me. This looks to me like a warranty issue :-(

hi,
i have just downloaded the radio stack from O2 v4.21. I have tried to upgrade through active sync 3.71 it upgraded ok, but when i went to restart the XDA it gets stuck on the boot screen. the one that says test not for resale... and at the bottom right hand corner its says A.30.07 and then locks up.
normally before i tried to upgrade it said A.30.07 the underneath it said 4.20...
anybody know what i need to do to correct it?? i have looked through loads of forum posts and now i'am really confused???
Thanks alot
Zetex :?:
a bit of further info my Bootloader on my xda1 is 5.22
I'am also willing to pay for help i recieve to get my xda up and running again, because without it i really i'am stuck. I don't just use it as i gadget i use for everyday work/pleasure...
Thanks alot
Zetex
can anybody help me????
Hi,
No experts or semi-experts seem to be offering any help. I consider myself a fairly experienced novice so I am not sure how useful (or safe) my advice is. Take care! But here are my observations..........
You say the upgrade went OK? Does this mean you got as far as the message Flash Complete! Press OK to restart your device?
If so, this is encouraging as most of the problems I've located on this forum stopped part way through the upgrade (many at 1%).
Did you follow the instructions accompanying the upgrade to the letter? (ie. kill all running programs, switch off phone etc.)
The 4.21 upgrade is for the PW10A1 model not the PW10B1 (check the back of your xda's case to find out). Not sure how you deal with this one if yours is a PW10B1.
Can you enter bootloader mode? (soft reset with the stylus while holding the power button). If so, this is also good news. Someone with more experience than me could probably tell you what to do next. (Possibly flash a new ROM using the SD card method. Although you upgraded the Radio Stack it may have corrupted or upset your Radio Unit/'ROM'. If you decide to do this, I suggest something based on the v3.17 such as the XDA developers special edition ROM ..... you can always upgrade to WM2003 again later.).
Good Luck!

cranny,
Thanks alot for the reply m8, I did try what you have suggested by reloading the 3.17 o2 rom via sd card and now it won't even switch on anymore.
not to worry its gone off to the xda repaire center in Norwich today for repair under warranty.
Thanks for the reply anyway m8

Goodmorning dear friends.
My Xda II mini is not working. A friend did an upgrade and then ...... nothing
When I'm turning it on it stops at the loader screen indicating at the down right corner with red letters.
R 1.12.00
G 1377.42
D 1.12.00 WWE
Afterwards the phone is getting to calibration procedure but after one tap - two, or without tapping for some seconds it restarts.
It connects to active sync but instantly disconnects cause it reboots in some seconds.
I need somehow to reinstall EVERYTHING through my SD card or to have the exact flow of actions to perform a hard reset.
Please help me, I'm lost
FIXED thanks to Cotulla's guidance
I'd like to say a BBBBIIIIGGGGG THANK YOU Cotulla.
His ROM and guidance is a "state of the art" procedure and effective too !!!

Hi friend,
Of'course it's very simple and you will have the wm6.1 in your mini !!!!!!!!!!
Just follow the instructions in cotulla's page
http://www.cotulla.pp.ru/Magician.html
Amazing job !!!
Such rebooting problems can occur due to battery issues especially due to backup battery. And the best way to handle with this problem is to use Batclear (which you can find it in Windows directory in your device). A detailed instruction of this applet can be found on Cotulla's website. By the way, I reaaly appreciate dear Cotulla for his great efforts on WM6.1 and other stuff, all credits go to him.

Hi
First of all, sorry for my bad english.
I've got a problem with my hermes. It is totally unstable. Sometimes, the screen is getting darker and the hermes don't accept any input. Other times, the screen shows a grey screen...
I've made a update to the newest original german rom (win6.1), and i've also tested a rom with win6.5. The problems appeard in both versions.
PS: the update processes also stucks at 100% and the PC shows a update error(262). But the rom starts after removing the battery
Can you help me?

Try a hard reset, and if that does not work try flashing the ROM from the SD card...http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
Good luck.
Thank you JR_de. i knew i was forgetting something. =)
Flash the stripped shipped ATT ROM before you flash a custom ROM.
http://www.4shared.com/file/61372397/e2bf76c0/official_ATT_WM6_striped.html
Just flash your device with new ROM.
Me too. Everytime when coocked new rom I have problem - the tom is totally unstable. I've tried everthing but problem is here again. Hermes is 6 months old. Please give some idea for this problem. Thnx....
please help im wishing to upgrade my offical rom from 1.43 to 1.48 but says my phone is not suitable??????im totally thick coming from nokia to windows,i did use search but was unable to find the answer.
thanks phil
Hello and welcome on board,
Can you post up the exact error message you are getting please?
Also read this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477 which you will fond useful and come back with any questions.
Incidentally you are not a fool for asking as long as you have searched first.

hi mate thanks for the reply,when i go to the htc offical rom download,i'm asked to enter my serial number,which i do but says my device is not suitable and won't let me proceed any further??
cheers phil
got a major problem now ive tried to update to 1.48 but it crashed now i get a warning traingle on start up,and can go into bootloader screen and it says upgrade rom code error please try again???someone please help.i hope i havent bricked my phone
Is your HD2 branded? (bought it in combination with a contract?)
hi mate its on vodafone contract buts its not branded.
Hi again,
Have you tried to hard reset your phone to see if the old rom boots up again?
If it does not then you might want to reflash your existing rom onto your phone using the SD card method (look at the threads at the top of the Rom Development page to find what you are looking for).
If it works and you are still keen to upgrade the rom you need to read the threads on using either the Goldcard or HardSPL methods to upgrade.
Come back and let us know how you got on.
WB
hi mate i was having the exact same probs as the chap in the hd2 bricked thread,same messages etc and stopping at 9% i took there advice and reflashed the hpsl again which has worked a treat,i'm now a little dubious bout trying to upgrade as i don't fancy bricking it.
ive emailed htc to see why i cant upgrade from 1.43 to 1.48 seems odd it says my phone isnt suitable.
p.s thanks for the help mate much appreciated
OK, wait until you hear back from them. However if you are now up and running and have installed HardSPL, I think you will find that flashing a new radio on its own might help solve your problems.
I think if you look at the thread you were referring to (this one...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084), IIRC, MysticGenius runs through a procedure for doing this that helped him sort out a similar problem.
Good luck with it.
WB
PS: Lesson learned here though is to read exhaustively on the topics on here BEFORE jumping in as fixing problems later can be both time consuming, if you are lucky, and a pain in the rear. As for that horrible sick feeling you get when you think you have bricked £500 worth of phone....wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy!
WB
My Htc Touch/elf on switching on shows a black screen with text "smart phone". it happened after the phone got accidently locked and a friend of mine tried to flash it.
please guide me on what to do.
do i need to flash it? if so can i do it myself?
i wana retain windows 6.1, but are there any latest upgrades to it?
What is ROM and is it causing the problem in my phone?
also give me a detailed list of al the softwares i would need to solve this problem and upgrade my phone.
please hurry!!
please read the stickies in ROM upgrading section
