Error 112 CE ROM Update Error

Hi, Don't know if anyone can help. I had a perfectly working XDA2 up until I tried to upgrade the ROM the other night. Now I have a useless hunk of junk that states "error 112 CE ROM update error. I have browsed every fix given on the forums, but to no avail. As my unit is covered by warranty (and I may possibly be getting a XDA2s as a replacement heh heh") I am not too bothered, however although a newbie I would still like to know if there is any way I can fix this problem that I haven't yet tried, just for future reference. At the moment the only display I get, on an unlit screen is either serial V1.03, when not in cradle or usb v 1.03, when in cradle. I have tried soft reset, hard reset, tried a coupe of rom upgrades, disbled active sync, and even tried prayer and using the force! Unfortunately my jedi powers are not sufficiently develpoed enough, so I would be very grateful if you could help me out here. Incidentally, this site is fantastic! Thank you to all who are resposible for it, and long may it continue. Merry Xmas!

You could try flashing with the launch rom from O2, I dont have the link for the download but I am sure somebody else has. The launch rom was available for download so you could revert in case of problems.

I had same eror 112 CE rom bla bla bla... on my comp.
Some program from my comp. crashed upgrading every time.
Solution that worked for me was clean computer with only activesync instaled and everything worked fine with same ROM from before.

Thanks guys, will try those methods. Nothing to lose eh! Merry XDA-MAS to you all. Ho ho ho!

I had the same or similar problem, just upgrading from the official 1.72.181 a window came up telling some thing was wrong, do a hard reset and try again.
After the hard reset all I can see on the unlighted screen was a Serial 1.06.
Launched the upgrading program again with the PDA on the craddle and it seems to be performing correctly and I can see the upgrading process in the PDA screen if alighted with a torch.
May be if you try it again you succeed.

XDAIIi New ROM from O2 and xdaforum, both fail with ERROR114

Hello Guys,
Disaster. I tried updating to the new ROM from the O2 website and it fails with : "ERROR114....
Tried the version from this great forum and guess what? same error.....
HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock:
My XDAIIi was brill. Now its dead...

Try putting the 2i into bootloader mode by pressing the power button, action pad down and the reset button at the same time. The screen will say serial with a version number at the bottom. When you connect it to your computer this should change to USB. Then try running the update again.
If you are using the modified version I posted on this site then the install will fail. Just run the program MAUpgradeUT_noid.exe a second time without touching the 2i at all.
Hope all goes well.

Hi Pug,
Unfortunaely that has not work. see screen shots attached.

can anyone tell me what this damn error is pls...............
oh by the way the iMate PDA2 rom fails as well with the same error. !!

If both your devices are failing to upgrade the problem must lie with your computer somewhere.
Are you using firewalls like zonealarm which may be interfering with the update process. If so try disabling them.
I assume you are connecting using USB and not serial. Do so if for no other reason than it's faster.
Are you using Activesync 4? More stable for upgrading than 3.8 but lacks sync over LAN feature - not a great deal if you've never used it. You can find this on the wiki link top left of this page.
Try downloading the packages again. I've posted the radio rom here as thats the one you seem to be having immediate problems with. Download it and overwrite the one on my modified rom.
I'll post more if I think of anything as I'm suffering a hangover right now and can't think too much cos it hurts. :?

thnx pug,
really appreciate your help. yes iam running firewall (norton). I will try your modified radio and advise. fingers crossed. and thnx once again.
using activesynch 4 as well from this forum

Hi pug,
Sorry the radio did not work. renamed the radio and ran update and the update works for nk.nbf and ms.nbf files. without radio the phone does not work but proved that there is no problem with my pc or usb cradle etc. the problem is the radio.
my IMEI is 354962000270150.
the radio file from the Launch rom from O2 does not work, so either my IIi has a damaged component or something else that I am not aware of.
copied your radio file to the other iMate upgrade and it still fails with the same error 114 !!
Any other ideas or suggestions pls, its really depressing to loose the XDAIIi permanently.

Oh I forgot to mention that the IIi is also unlocked and the ExtROm is unlocked as well. Will this make a diffeence?

The fact that the 2i is unlocked won't make any difference. The EXTRom on the 2i can't be unlocked and always results in the storage being locked which will stop the phone being updated. Maybe not at the actual update stage but certainly further down the line after the hard reset.

Ok now I have have tried various things as posted in this forum in various sections. Still get the same error.
Originally about 3 months ago, I had to hard reset, then I used the Launch ROM from the O2 website. I still have that original exe but that also NOW fails. I am now running out of options.
Any other ideas?

It might be that because you have unlocked the Extended ROM that it causes this fault, either that or you device has an internal problem which you cannot fix.
Take it back to the shop they will replace it.

114 error
I got my XDA2i back from O2 after a warranty mainboard replacement and decided to upgrade with the new O2 rom..horrors.. I got the 114 error and repeated efforts failed to cure it. I then inatalled a/sync on another PC and ran the upgrade from there...
Bingo! it worked..always worth a try if things defy logic.
Probably an old firewall that didn't uninstall properly.
One thing though, does anybody know when my backup battery will kick in and charge.
It arrived back from O2 completely dead but even with the main battery full it doesn't want to take a charge yet??

Hitla
Just humour me and try the radio upgrade on another PC... That's how i got round my 114 error

To all the people who have advised me... thank you.
I have tried the upgrade on 2 other laptops I have, one with Activesync 4 and one with Activesync 3.8.
AND..... the same failure error.
I have now taken it back to O2 and they have taken it in for repair !!
Should rcv it back next week hopefully repaired or replaced !!
Will keep you guys posted.
Once again great forum and great posters with serious technical advice.
Well done keep it up.

Soory guys,
Have been away for the last few weeks, so unable to update you all.
Well O2 replaced my device. It has the new ROM but the old radio !!
I would like to thank all of you advised me.

Hi,
I just downloaded the O2 Rom-Upgrade.
To keep my 2020i in German I only did a Radio-Update from 1.02 (ran the installer and copied the files to a different directory together with the AllUgrade kindasomething.....)
The update worked, it always worked this way, but after the update the Radio showed up as 1.00.00 (MUST be 1.03, at least that is what o2 says....)
Any idea?
Thanks, Günter
P.S.: I should add that the phone works..

#2 What is wrong ?! HELP!

Hello !!
I have qtek 1010 german version! After i read the links i decided to upgrade the rom version, because i barely manage in english, not to metion german.
I downloaded a rom from http://www.romkitchen.de, i complete the setup with no errors and i thouht it was a success. Now in start menu i only have Recent Programs (with no access to tap on it), Today, Find and Help, and the screen logo xda-developers.com. Cant do anything, the best result when i tap something its : "No program memory available. Tap Start>Settings>System tab>Memory, stop programs that did not automatically stop, and try again". But in start i have nothing
I downloaded another rom version 4.01.12_ENG, but now i can not connect the pda with activesync, so i cant make another upgrade.
So, please, help!!
Thanks, Regards and excuse my poor english!
PS: #1 Was posted in a wrong section i think!

Sounds very strange.
You have done a reset after the update?
What ActiveSync VErsion are you using? WM2003 requires an Version i think greater than 3.7.....
Stefan

I was using at that time Activesync 4.2, but i downgrade it to 3.7 after the failure and still no connection. Now i'm using again 4.2.
I did the reset (after i saw the result of the upgrade i thnik i made another 4 or 5, think this will have no negative effects, anyway its as worst as is possible).
And if i remember well i did a reset with holding the power button as the upgrading soft says.

flash with sdcard
Go here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashSD this will let you change the rom without using active sync

Upgraded SX66 To WM6 (Helmi): Device Passcode No Longer Works

I'm hoping somebody here can help, because I'd hate to have to get rid of a device that I really love...
Used Helmi's WM6 (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...angel_WM6_Home) to upgrade from WM2003SE and everything was working beautifully!
I was absolutely LOVING the new software until my device just stopped accepting the passcode that I had been using for 2 years. What I don't understand is I had to use the passcode a few times after the upgrade and all was fine. What could have happened for it to suddenly change by itself (because I know it wasn't me)?
Someone at the PocketPCAddicts forum suggested that I locate an original factory ROM to wipe out everything on the device and try again from scratch. I've searched the web looking for such a beast and can't find one (since the manufacturer/carrier no longer support it).
Can someone here help?
Debbie

Had the same problem...
Hi Debbie,
Same thing happened when I upgraded from WM2003 to the WM6 ROM. Unfortunately there was no solution and I just ended up disabling the password to ensure I never got stuck.
If you ever stumble upon a solution that works for you, I'd be happy to hear about it!
I'm about to try out the latest WM6.11 and hope it will have that particular issue solved - I'll let you know.
Ken

if you press and hold power+record+camera the same time and then reset you get to the boot loader.
you will see the 3 options, which i have fogotten, but if you put in the same options as instructions tell you after flashing a new rom, then push the mail button i believe, it will format you memory and you will be able to get back in again.
i had the same problem where i was locked out and i did that and just sync'd again to get back to my positon prior getting locked out.
hope that helps

Thanks, I will try it again.
Should I be able to simply repeat those steps, or should I start from the beginning? I don't have the device with me right now.
Thanks again,
Debbie

follow the instructions after the flashing the rom stage all the way to the end.
you choose to format memory on the gray screen with 3 options.

i flashed the wm6.1(5.2.19716) several days ago, and tested in several situations, my BA can remember the pw now, thanks for the hardwork of rom maker.

Thanks! (Now Internet Problem)
I got it to finally work, after getting a 3rd hand to help in the key combination/timing.
Only problem now is that my SX66 no longer connects to the Internet. Tried every setting/CAB I could find and no dice. AT&T tech and advanced tech support didn't help and I was told that the OS may have corrupted the connectivity.
Should I try loading another WM6 version?
Thanks again,
Debbie

[Q] HTC Trophy 7.8 update

Hello guys,
I have a "small problem"
I upgraded my phone to wp 7.8 using seven-eighter, it all worked, wp7.8 looked great until i figured out i can't go to "about phone" its instantly kicking me back. The same thing is when i try to enter any thread it just kick me out instantly to main screen.
And i have no idea what to do. I tried soft reset (vol- vol+ and power) and it didnt work. I tried also to restore backup from zune. I have now older version of wp, but still can't go to messages or info about phone.
I found one or two information about this problem after updating mozart... but thats all, no solution. Any one have any ideas how to fix it?
If i posted this thread in wrong section im sorry. I just don't know where it should be.
Thanks

Hello. Have You managed to solve the problem? I have completely the same situation, and nothing seems to help it. I've tried with SevenEighter_LanguageRestore but it's the same!
I Have german version of the software, and it comes with Vodafone.

You forgot to update the languages/did not update your language correctly.
