Upgrade ROM, but it failed...Help!

I have a Siemens SX56, locked to AT&T.
I downloaded the new 1.1 ROM, (Jeff's courtesy)
and began the upgrade.
It started, My SX56 said "Upgrading It will take about 5 minutes...."
Then,
I got an error message on my computer about com ports not being available, it lost the active sync connection, and now my SX56 is hung on the same message: "Upgrading It will take about 5 minutes....."
Of course, I'm unable to connect back.
Any suggestions?
I'm trying to be able to use it with T-Mobile.
I was unable to get any results by pushing the hard/battery resets.
Thanks!

"COM ports not being available"... Are you using ActiveSync via serial cable or cradle?
If you really cannot connect anymore, I guess you have to use an SD-card and the bootloader method to get back to a working state. But do try to reset the device and restart Programme A., it may just pick up again. I've seen that happen here once.

Try doing a soft reset then put it back in the cradle, the upgrade should restart automatically.

Were or are you using a USB hub? If so that may be your problem. The SD Card method works very well and very reliably. No comms outside of the device. I found many times whenn trying to do file xfers to the XDA that for no reason in the middle of transferring a file the connection would be lost.
I haven't had this problem with 2003 and AS 3.7.

Upgraded my brand new TyTN to WM6 - "USB Device Not Recognized"

Hey All,
I just got my TyTn and decided to upgrade to WM6 - after that my PC never recognized the device - allways says "USB Device Not Recognized". Digged all over, and don't have a clue.
I am using Win XP SP2.
Does someone can help me?
Thanks in advance.

try going to >settings>connections>usb to pc>'uncheck' enable advance network functionality.

Ensure you are running ActiveSync version 4.5 which is available for download from:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx

It worked...
Hey All,
after a few hours going back and forth it worked
I forgot that I was running a windows device, and I had re-started the computer a few times, but after the OS Upgrade I hadn't turned it off and on.
So that's the solution: boot the device. After upgrade the OS to WM6, turn off for real and turn it on again. It'll might work

PLEASE need help to downgrade the device

Hello Guys
I have a problem.
I have a Qtek 8100 (with the music buttons). I should downgrade it back to Windows Mobile 2003 SE. The first problem is, that i can't find any official rom.
Then the second problem is, that all other cooked roms like wm5 or wm6 roms don't work at all. So the device starts up, but then i can't do anything, not even go to the menu.
And this problem goes into the next problem. I can't establish a connection with active sync... I don't know, but it doesen't try to connect.
But I can tell you what is working:
I can update the phone to wm5 or wm6 with the mtty 1.42, but then the roms don't work.
First: Does anybody have the official qtek 8100 rom or does know where to get it?
Second: Why can I not connect with active sync?
Please I need your help!
Thank you!
