Big problema, cannot update...help

hi to everyone,
about a year ago, i patched thr spl...now is 2.13.0000. Yesterday i tried to install to my imate jamin (s200) the new qtek s200 italian rom. The process start successfully and cheked the version. When the phone reboot itself and shows the bootscreen, he program said that there was error 260 and cannot continue; on the phone screen reamin the boot section. When i try to rebbot, it works, but in this way i cannot update my phone. How i can solve this??
i use windows vista and windows mobile device center 1.0 version; also, i used on innotek virtual machine, windows xp with activesync 4.5I would like to inform you, if you can help, theat about a month ago i sent my phone to the assistence because the audio didn't work (is it possible that the assistence did something that block the update??
thanks and please help!!
on the bootscreen, compares RUU on the right-up side,ipl 2.13,spl 2.13 and (all writes are in the red section) and usb on the left-bottom side (on white background)! that's all, i think i've said everything...please HELP!!!

THE PROBLEM IS THAT PROPHET CANNOT CONNECT AT USB IN BOOTLOADER
i've tried, also, to use camera + softreset and when reboot the writes RUU disappear, but still not recognize on usb when in bootloader.
Someone can solve this problem? please....

your problem is vista!
use native windows xp and not VMWare or some Virtual Computer!
have the same strange errors if i flash with vista.
how you have flash your ipl to 2.13??

i used the pdamobiz...i think my ipl was 2.15.0000, and after downgrade, it becomes 2.13.0000. Sound strange? So, do you think the problem is vista and the VM? but i read in this forum that lots of people flash hos phone using xp on virtual machine....but you mean that in vista if you plug the phone (botloader) in to computer, windows doesn't recognize it?

i havent test "win xp vm" on a "vista host". my work laptop has vista and i cant update any rom/firmware. vmware use the host system and his driver to route the usb device. possible the usb-subsystem in vista is changed to much ;-)
test it ... if work ... ok ... we can debug it!

SOLVED
SOLVED! I flashed the prophet on "real" xp. Now my spl changed to 2.20.000 and ipl remain at 2.13.0000. I have another question: if i flashthe phone with one rom of wm6 (which is better?or which is the rom with less bugs?), can i reflash with a wm5 rom without problem?
thanks in advance and thanks for your advice!!

Unable to Syn with PC after upgrade ausdim's Rom!

Hi All,
I need help urgent. My dopod can't syn with Pc after i successfully upgraded to ausdim's Rom! Right now,i can't install softwares, can't connect with pc. I want to use other Rom but since there is no connection so i can't do anything.
Already try every possible ways(disable firewall,Hard reset,Uninstall/reinstall Active Syn4.5, tried with activesyn 4.2,Retard the Pc....) But unsuccessful...
Drivers is all good as there is no yellow "!" mark in the Device Manager. (Yes, i can syn my HP 2490 WM5 with PC)
I think the problem is the Rom itself.
Please help me, I do not wish to bring it to repair center as it too far away from my house.

M3100 newbie help

Just purchsed the Orange M3100 phone but I cant sync it on my pc. Ive downloaded Windows Mobile Device Center driver for Vista 64bit. It doesnt pick up my phone. Please help, ive googled etc.
Running WM 5.

In settings>connections>usb to pc, uncheck "advanced network functionality". That might work...
Cheers...

also make sure its pluged directly into your pc (one of the ports on the back) not though a usb hub, thats the prob i had syncing my 3100

thanks ultramag69. it seemed to work
now can i use FREE HTC HERMES UNLOCKER v3a by pof using vista?
the instructions talk about active sync and windows xp but no vista
sorry but ive only used this phone for few hours

you can use the sd card method as described in its readme.txt that comes with it

thats the problem I dont have a sdcard yet. Just thought the XP instructions may work using Vista and WMDC.

I believe you need to update to the latest version of WMDC through my reading but you may want to confirm that. If you do a search through the wiki using terms like "vista activesync hermes" you should get a hit as it has been extensively talked about. Also please make sure you check what radio rom you have as unlocking the hermes will downgrade the radio rom to 1.16.00.10. MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHAT RADIO YOU HAVE SO YOU AN PUT IT BACK...
If you want to use the sd card method (I find it safer than from the pc) then you need an sd card 2 Gb or smaller as though the OS can read a higher card the bootloader (the software in the hermes used to flash) can't. Don't forget to Hard SPL your hermes after you unlock it, I didn't need to do this but you can check by putting a sim from another carrier into your hermes. However, Hard SPL is a MUST. You can get instructions from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Sd card method on page 116, post 1160. It has all the apps needed to flash both through pc and sd card.
Then you're good to go for flashing a new os.Look into each os on your own, read the post and make up your own mind, DON'T ASK WHICH IS THE BEST..... There is no "best" for everyone, you need to choose on your own. As for the Radio Rom, I would suggest ONLY using the sd card method as if you flash this it the thing that is MOST likely to brick your device if something goes wrong. DON'T INTERRUPT THE FLASH FOR ANYTHING!!!!!
As stated the unlocking will change your radio rom.
Read carefully each step of the guides and don't skip anything and you'll be fine...
Welcome and happy flashing,
Cheers...

hi ultramag69. flashed the phone today and it worked fine. the only problem i have now is when trying to update to wm6 i just get the 4 colours screen and lose sync. same when trying to hard spl 2.1. any ideas?

Hi,
What ROM are you using now ? Normally, if you install AS 4.5, it will wait for a PPC to connect and then make a new profile etc. Unless something went wrong with your ROM-update.
For the latest ROM from HP, look here

try using another usb-cable

Should like to Flash ROM, but ERROR 260

Hello
I've got a problem. I want to flash my ROM to WM6.5.
I connectet my Phone with Vista over USB-Port.
The ROMUpdateUtility.exe start the GUI.The phone disconnect from Vista and the Install GUI shows me after few seconds the ERROR 260, that my Phone ist not connectet.
On my Phone I see the three coulored Monitor. On the left lower site is written "USB".
I tried to hold the connection with Vista ( i startet the Camera or other Applikation ) but the same problem.
Whenever i start the ROMUpdateUtility.exe the same. Disconnect and never connect again.
What can i do, that my phone stay connectet with Vista, so the Install GUI can make his work?
thx AcidC ( and sorry for my bad english)

run artemis uspl first
remove any sd card if u have
and then try it

Hi,
we tried with and without microSD card and or sim card.
The real problem is the connection which is interrupted and doesn't rebuild.
Independent of trying to flash the WM6.5 or USPL.

Silly question, but you never know..Do you have Windows Mobile Device Center installed in your PC and is your device connected to it? It is the "Activesync for Vista". The three coloured screen is normal, it is called Boatloader. After that you should have a progress bar of what you are updating (rom,radio..uspl..etc) on both PC and Artemis. In my case, when i got error [260] it's always because I forget to remove the SD card. I know you already tried this but keep it away from device when you flash.Your problem is maybe about Vista Drivers for Artemis, there are threads concerning it. Before you investigate further,try to install/reinstall Windows Mobile Device Center, change USB port and flash with a freshly booted PC. Hope you'll get the magic.
P.S. USPL flash is ABSOLUTELY THE FIRST THING TO DO!
Workaround: try to flash with a PC running XP

You need RUU for vista

Ok. I tried it again, but like u said, i need USPL and WM6.5 RUUs for Vista. But can u help me? I don't find somthing :-(

I consider myself beeing quite lucky for not having needed this even if I'm on Vista,hope helps for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337097
