Thanks.
Anyone tried that?
Since my phone is working perfect now, it is nonsense to try that

It didn't work for me.

GREAT!!!!
it worked for me in my qtek 1010.

Mirror on xda-developers
I downloaded Ricardo's repair.zip file and took the liberty of mirroring it on xda-developers, since my download went at a whopping 200 bytes per second.
We've seen this recipe before, and it does appear to fix at least some of the problems caused by RSU upgrades not finishing.

hi guys
still stop at 1% and showed massage
((flash failed! Press OK restart your device))
any help

hi guys!
I have this problem also.
Still stop at 1% and showed massage
((flash failed! Press OK restart your device))

Just try to do following: start 3.23 ROM update to extract RSUpgrade.sa.CAB and place it to SD card instead of file found in repair.zip.
The situation you describe looks like your device died while flashing new 3.23 version. So you may try to continue process with 3.23 version instead of old one. This is because 3.23 don't allow to "downgrade".

Hi AE !
Where can I find 3.23 ROM file ?
Thx for your helps.

If your device died while trying to upgrade to 3.23 radio, the CAB-file should be found in "C:\Program Files\Radio Stack Upgrade Utility".

My device died while trying to upgrade to radio 3.19 but I trying to copy to SD all Radio upgrade, but don't work. Still stop on 1% and error message is "Flash failed. Press OK to restart device".
Other tips ?

Radi ROM
i have the same pb the alnasser and sebi; i have tried everything; what we need is a new rom version for the radio and not an upgrade; also while using boot loader and if i try to copy the GSM rom from a working phone i got a message saying: connect to RS232 and run PC monitor; i have USB and i do not know what is PC monitor...any ideas???

It worked for me also, but with slight changes
Hi,
The soloution above worked for me after a little trial and error.
I was trying to upgrade to new UK Radio Stack but flash failed in the middle of upgrade (probable because the keyboard popped up onto the screen for no apparant reason, then locked up).
However, after much wailing and gnashing of teeth, I found your website!!
I installed the Files onto an SD card as described above, and although the XDA was going painfully slowly (about 3 mins to warm reset). managed to get to the today screen. I ended up pusing the "record button" repeatedly to try and get some response out of the machine, finally it auto ran the program on the SD card, only to be told that flash failed
Undeterred I repeated the exerscise with the other RSUpgrade.sa.cab
file, this gave the same result!!
However I soon realised that this cab file is kept within the .exe file of the original upgrade I tried to do, so... Using winzip I extracted the relevent RSUpgrade file for my XDA and put that file on the SD card instead.
It Worked!!!
Consequently I conclude that if the file fails or stops at 1% then it must be because it is NOT the correct file for your XDA, you need to use the correct upgrade cab file for you particular XDA.
Hope it helps someone else.
Essentially the watchword is "perseverence".

it starts but stop on 85%??!!
hi i have a dead xda and i'm trying to fix it but it stops on 85% sometimes on 83%,i'm using the copy of cab file to sd card and runnig it from xda anyone can tel me how to get over this?

now it stops on 1%
i have removed it from charger and put the file on the sd card,the progress bar went to 99% then flash failed,now it gives me that message on 1%,how to fix it??!!

Re: it starts but stop on 85%??!!

Hi,
seems to be the same case as I had: I found version, which did not freeze in 1%, but in 85% all stopped.
I unfortunatelly don't exactly remember complete list of my steps, but THIS MAY BE IMPORTANT:
After I made cold restart, I saw radio upgrade progress bar ( If you can't see this, try to follow instruction about repair.zip solution, mentioned hereinbefore ). Radio upgrade progress window only flashed for a second or two, then disappeared and WIN CE ( trying to boot up ) painted its splash screen. After that WinCE froze with this screen.
BUT:
If you have a luck, radio upgrade may continue on background. After 10-15 mins upgrade was done, and after restart ... I saw normal radio version in bootloader, and it worked well !!!
Note 1:
I killed phone with latest radio upgrade ( maybe lack of space, maybe radio switched on ), so there was no way to use lower versions ( it leads to "1% problem" with downgrade )
Note 2:
When my steps was still unsuccessfull, I continued [up|down]grade WIN CE and Bootloader. Maybe it was solution, maybe not, I dont know. I did it because I thought it would solve some problems with space for radio installation. My second reason was, that it should stop neverending ( 1% freezing) radio upgrade window after each boot.
Note 3:
During these installation steps it seems to me that battery si getting weaker, and does not recharge. So I tried to revive WIN CE first to be able to recharge.
Some steps may be unimportant, based on my feeling how it may work.
Anyway,
MY MDA RESURRECTION SUCCEDED,
so I hope it helps.

Radio Stack Failed? HERES HOW TO GET YOUR XDA BACK ON TRACK!

(mods i would appreciate if you could make this a sticky for people... ive worked long and hard trying to get this thing working again)
Ok so heres what happened to my XDA which proberly happened to yours.
I went onto the 02 site and got the latest radio stack upgrade for my xda, but i didnt have the sim in my device so once it finshed and restarted the xda it crashed because there was no sim in it. So i hard reset it.
Causing it to hang on the boot screen showing the G & U letters on the side for about 4 minutes before booting to a blank screen with the keyboard icon in the corner.
*** Please remember at the moment my status LED isnt working showing there is no battery (but still booting etc - P.S i have installed a new battery - no diffrence) ***
Heres how to get it working...... remember that everything takes longer because the XDA lags like mad.
Ive created this guide myself ive took nothing from anyone else info ive done this from scratch, it will need to be done everytime the machine runs out of power (hard resets).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* when i put " + " it means AT THE SAME TIME e.g button1 + button2 = keep pressing them at the same time.
** I refer to the directional keypad centre button as the "OK" button.
Make sure you have the correct RSU Version from here :>
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
Download it and put the files onto an SD card.
1. Boot up the device
2. keep pressing the OK button + volume button until it shows the today screen, please note there will be no titles on the screens, HENCE NO START BUTTON.
3. Then press the contacts button + THEN OK a few times, then press the OK button this should bring up the start menu
4. CLICK programs, file explorer, select the SD Card. Then Copy RSUPGRAD.exe to : my device > windows>start up.
5. Copy the remaining 3 files to the : my device > windows
6. Soft Reset Device
7. Click on start (on the upgrade util) it will then restart the device because theres no LED for the battery (hence the 1% then fail).
8. Once started it should then start up as it did when it came out the box giving you the windows setup screen.
9. Go into file explorer and delete tha flas util file from the startup.
Thats it!
- Remember if you hard re-set the device again it will need to be re-done, i dont know how to solve this problem LONG TERM, im giving my XDA to 02 to fix it...... been as its there screw up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks Everyone

Does this actually flash the gsm radio? If it does then why does it need reflashing following a hard reset?

No it doesnt re-flash it.............
All i know is that it fixes it and many people have had the same problem but had no replys so id thought id help them out :roll:

Where are he diffreneces to the instrucions on wiki????
Stefan

huh? so your saying someone has already written the instructions?
Do you have a link? it will be intresting to find out how i can get my LED working again so the system will be able to work once more.
EDIT: IF THE BATTERY LED/STATUS IS UNKOWN (as in my case)
"Maybe the upgrade will stop again at 1%, this may occur when you have an empty battery. "
Does not apply to you............... hence why my guide overcomes the one on wiki.
If you have had the situation happen to you, then you would undertsand.

would it be possible to use the xda developers 1.2 special edition ROM instead of the 1.1 version for this procedure?thats the only rom i seem to have found.

Boogie, I think you need only the radio stack not the rom if I read the post correctly. The special edition rom contains NO RADIO STACK.

That´s not 100% correct. I´ve noticed, that some ROMs wouldn´t boot up so that you can follow the procedure.....
Stefan

hey guys this is my 1st post to this forum, but for the last year or so I've found it very helpful.
I was experiencing this same issue it would just boot up and hang on the welcome screen for what seemed like an eternity. I gave up and just left it booting up and finally the today screen came up. This is what I tried and it worked. All of this was after a hard reset when I tried to upgrade the radio stack and it fell into this infinite loop of 1% and fail and reboot. I had read a couple of the procedures for doing a radio stack upgrade but here is some of what I did.
In one of the procedures it says to copy the files to ur ppc windows directory and to copy the exe file to ur windows startup directory. I figured I would bypass that in some way. After I finally got to the today screen and used my pc to copy the files to the sd card, I copied all the files to the windows directory on the device and ran the exe file from the windows directory. It worked like a charm and my ppc was back to life. It no longer took for ever to get passed the welcome screen. I hope this helps some of you that have this issue

idot guide needed please!

Extract the RAR into a folder on your C:\ (e.g. C:\xda). Plonk the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and any other DLLs or files that came with that app into the same folder.
Put your XDA into its cradle. Run the MaUpgrade app. It'll say "do not remove device / turn off device" etc, then when you click next provided it can find the ROM fine it'll put the device into bootloader mode (you'll see it on the screen).
It'll then proceed to install the various parts of the ROM, and indicate which part it's on on the screen (plus a crude percentage figure to indicate its status). The first time I flashed my device, my PC hung halfway through, that wasn't to do with the XDA or the flashing process but a separate problem. I freaked, but I just rebooted and ran the entire process again and it flashed the device fine.
It's as simple as that really - once it's done, and the on-screen dialog shows it as finished, just remove your phone from the cradle, power it up and go through the set up!

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!!!

IMEI-CHECK Team

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!!! tri-color appears on my HTC P4350

hello...
gud day to everyone..
Pls help me on how to get rid of this tri-color that appears on the screen of my htc p4350 with an IPL 4.17.0002 and SPL 4.17.0000 written on it.. I really don't know what to do with this problem.. help me pls. pls. pls.
thank u so much..

1. This is the development forum. Your post is not a development post.
2. This has been covered a million times. Please search.
3. The tri-color screen is your bootloader. What did you do in the first place to get to this point? The more information about your problem that you give, the easier it is for everyone else to figure out what happened.

Hello..
Thank you for the reply...
I'm so sorry for posting in a wrong thread... What happened was.. I accidentally installed a wrong application on my phone.. The application I installed was for HTC touch.. so it was not compatible on my phone.. Everytime I turned on my phone the tri color screen appears and it displayed on the screen all the time.. I could not also hard reset the phone because of that tri color..
Pls help me what to do.. thanks much..

What "application" was it? Was it a ROM? Was it a HardSPL?
If it was a ROM, just flash another ROM.
If it was a HardSPL, search for "Goldcard" and create a goldcard.

hello..
The application I installed was the Touch-flo application.. But the application was saved on the memory card.. when I run the application, its when the tri color starts to appear..
Thanks much...

Can you give me an exact link to the application that you used?

Sorry I could not anymore remember what site it was.. It's been 6 months now that my phone was not working... It's only today that I discovered this site and I was so happy coz maybe u can help me..
thanks

Without knowing what program you used, it will be harder to figure out how to fix it.
The only thing I can say is:
1a) try to flash a Herald ROM through SD (read the walkthrough) (if your device is HardSPL'd)
1b) try to flash the stock ROM through SD (read the walkthrough) if your device isn't HardSPL'd)
2) If you still can't get past the bootloader screen, try searching for the word "goldcard" and follow those instructions on how to create a goldcard. You can use the goldcard to restore your phone back to working condition.

i'll try these options..
thank u so much..

hi ivan.. i have some questions regarding gold card.. i'm really new to this & don't have that much idea.. hope you can help me... thanks..
I have done the previous steps but I couldn't get this..
