Hi,
Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this but i could not find an answer for this in this section or general section -- The problem is this i upgraded to wm6 from wm2003 and everything was fine then it started it freeze ocationally so i thought i'd give it a hard reset as ther was no where in the tutorial that said that after flashing you could not hard reset now the phone is stuck on the O2 screen where the IPL & SPL are displayed
IPL=1.00 &
SPL=1.01.0109 &
GSM=0.3.28.60
I know the IPL/SPL were at 2.61 before that
Can anyone tell me how to get out of this or is the phone now bricked?
Yes, you cant hard reset because the htccoldboot.dll is not there, its not brick, you got the right SPL, just reflash again, refer to my guide on my siggy
Thanks
great that worked out fine gave me a scare - now it's all back up and runnung apart from the camera
For those stuck with this same problem, please re-flash starting from step 7 of karhoe's instructions to upgrade to WM6.
After installing a few applications and having to reboot, my SMT5600 would not connect via ActiveSync, nor show any network carrier and none of the menu keys worked (Start & Contacts). While troubleshooting I browsed to a forum suggesting I try a hard reset.
Never got a proper hard reset and ended up stuck at the initial screen showing the IPL / SPL / HIVE and Partition info.
Followed karhoe's step 7, with phone turned off, held camera button down and plugged in USB cable. Followed remaining instructions.
Note: the "type 'l c:/os.bin' " step is done in the mtty.exe screen that pops up (and not on your PC's command prompt ).
Thanks karhoe,
Good luck to everyone,

Hi Friends,
My new mobile phone SPV M600 got stuck whil starting showing four lines of messages as shown below.
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
OS 2.10.1.22
Can any one please help me in geting my phone to today's screen.
I also attached the screen shot for reference.
did you try a hard reset ?
Ya I tried both hard as well as soft reset but same screen is stuck again and agian.Can any one please help me in this regard as I am very new to PDA family.
Ok, first things first:
Since you are new to this, are you sure you preformed a hard reset?
It is done by holding power + camera + comm manager buttons (one on the right, two on the left) and pressing with stylus in the reset hole at the same time.
A message should appear asking you to press 'send' (green phone button) to confirm reset.
If this does not help, you may have a serious problem.
Please answer the following:
Is the device fully charged?
Phone will fail to boot if the battery is too low.
Did you install any software right before this happened?
This should have been resolved by hard reset, but just in case I am asking.
Did you change the ROM, attempted CID / SIM unlock?
This could require more serious measures than I can advise on.
I did exactly the same thing which you mentioned.But even then it is stuck at the same screen.
Ya u r right I unlocked my mobile using a software from eBay.The unlock was successfull and I tried to insert T-Mobile sim, it also captured the signal and I was able to make and recieve calls then after that I wantedly switched off the phone and then tried to start it, there got the problem.
Can any one help me in this regard please.
I am having the same problem, but my phone is not sim-locked.
I've got the same problem after attempting smart1_wm6_pp8mb.exe
I'm having the same problem with my G4 QTEK S200:
Attempted to upgrade to WM6 Rom using smart1_wm6_pp8mb.exe
After reboot the phone got stuck at the QTEK Screen
Tried Hard Reset (Camera+Power+Comm+Reset) followed the steps with the same results (bricked)
I also tried re-flashing the rom back to the factory one using RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship and ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.exe in Windows Vista with WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center v. 6.0.6873) and the phone in boot loader mode (tri color screen) with working USB cable, with windows firewall disabled and symantec AV disabled as well, RUU keeps saying error 260 "the update utilitiy cannot connect to your pda phone..." .
Do you think I should try this process using XP instead? No matter what i try i keep getting the error 260
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Got it fixed!
it was definately a Vista issue. once i tried it in XP with ActiveSync it worked like a charm and i got my phone back up and running. also used spb backup and restored all my settings.
ipl/spl screen
i got the same problem with new rom wm6, and the 260 eror, my problem is that i have xp and the activesync does`t connect ...
... means i cant redo the original rom ????
PLEAAASEEE HELPPPP !!
Again My phone SPV M600 got stuck at IPL/SPL screen
Please Can some one advice me how to get my phone back.
I raised the same issue 7 months back after that my phone got recovered automatically and there were no issues till last month. Last month onwards it is again got the same problem and now it is permenantly stuck at that screen what ever you do.

..and yekanth i see what u mean about the dead links. i have the files on my computer at home but i'm posting from my prophet right now, so i can't upload. Try using the "pdaviet temp" from one of the wm6 threads?

Hi Iam able to update the Rom but no use
Hi,
To mention my phone is from orange-UK. I got the orange rom from our FTP site and did the flashing/update what ever you say.But still it is getting stuck at the same IPL/SPL screen. Iam very much worried that I will not get a proper solution for my problem.It will be very grate full if some one resolve my problem.
just seems strange...how did you fix it last time? did it just start working again? A random guess would be that the camera button got liquid spilled on it or is stuck in.
If the camera button is pressed in the phone will go to 3 colour screen every time it is turned on.
It won't do any harm if you try to press/move that button to see if u can "unstick" it, not likely I think but u never know...
I have previously flashed my phone with shelltool no problem. I wanted to try out Faria's new WM6 rom so I install the 2 cabs as normal.
I run shelltool and halfway through my phone comes up with an error - can't find or can't run raplog.exe? or something similar to that. I didnt touch it and left it running - it went on for a good ten minutes longer than it should do and then finally completes. So I do a hard reset and now when I turn it on it hangs on the splash screen with the usual writing in top left corner i.e. IPL 2.21.0001, SPL 2.21.0001, GSM 02.07.10 and OS 2.18.0.0
Have done a couple of hard resets and normal resets but no luck.
Does anyone have any suggestions??
Sorry should have read more threads - I'm going to try force bootloader and few other things for now.

I tried to update to ProphetTouchVIII. First step, using the RUU worked. but after the second step, upgrading the rom to ProphetTouchVIII and hard reboot I got a short message (less than 1 sec) "format FAT partition
Format is completed!!" and now it returned to bootings screen and got stuck there.
I will read the recommended thread but so far I havent found anything helpfull there. The big problem is that my computer wont find the m600 anymore so I cant flash the rom back to a working one, i guess..?
further suggestions are welcome..
Hi everyone,
I recently received an XDA Orbit 2, literally, charged it for 2 hours, and when it was full charged, I started using it, I had it for about 2 months now, and recently I changed my home Internet connection to wireless (It's a B & G connection) so my laptop connects fine, and when I tried to connect my XDA Orbit 2, it connected and then soft-reset itself, and now it just loads the O2 screen, then Windows Mobile screen with the volume controller and I can't do anything else so here's what I have tried so far:
- Soft reset
- Removed battery and SIM
- Since I can't access phone's menu at all, I tried to Hard Reset method by holding the 2 soft key, reset, and the power button - So I get the warning that everything will be lost and to press 'Send' to continue, so I press the green key, and soft resets and goes back to the same situation again.
- The latest thing I tried is to load the Hard-SPL into the SDCard which has been formatted to FAT32, so loaded the POLAIMG.nbh into the root. and loaded the phone into BootLoader mode (Camera and reset buttons). It loads the memory card and just says 'Loading ... ' I left it for about an hour, until the battery died completely (I'm sure it's not supposed to take that long). And still the same problem.
I'm not sure if this phone is now bricked, can anyone help me plesae. I really need this to start working again, I don't have any info. on it. (Everything was sync. previously).
Kind regards,
Since you havent really messed with SPL, i would say to take it back, since its still into warranty.
Thanks for the reply, I'm not actually in the UK and will be overseas for a while. I don't really mind experimenting so I would appreciate any advise on this matter. Thanks again.

I assume just boots into bootloader and then stays there?
If yes you culd try searching out a thread on MTTY and recovery from boot loader but I dont know how well that would work on polaris as I have not tried it yet.
HTH
Leon
Thanks for the reply, I heard about the MTTY process, but I've no clue on how to do it, since the phone can't connect in ActiveSync mode. Is there a thread or WiKi guide out there?

I'm pretty sure you can download MTTY from here and read through how to use it.

You need to do Hard Reset, all information will be wiped off. To do hard reset, hold down the:
1.Press and hold the GPS/MESSAGING and INTERNET EXPLORER
buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET
button at the bottom of your device.
2. Release the RESET button, but
continue pressing the GPS/
MESSAGING and INTERNET
EXPLORER buttons until you
see this message on the
screen:
This operation will delete
all your personal data,
and reset all settings
to manufacturer default.
Press Send to restore
manufacturer default, or
press other keys to cancel.
3. Release the buttons, and then press SEND on your device to perform
the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
Good luck.
Hi,
I'm using an HTC TC POLARIS100. Today I upgraded my ROM and SPL successfuly. If you're still in trouble and believe the same process will help, I will let you know the process followed.
GUY
I'm new in these forums as well I'm new with flashing ROMs so obviously I messed up flash process and my device stuck in bootloader (tri-color) mode. This post I address to those unfortunate like me .
# Symptoms #
- ROM flash started and stopped at 17%. After recovery flash process stucks at 0% and pops Connection Error 262. Device is stuck in bootloader mode not possible to flash anything, hard reset does not help, flash from SD card does not help either.
# Possible cause for that #
1. In bootloader mode device shows:
Code:
Pola100
SPL-1.25.0000
CPLD-2
means that Hard SPL was not flashed before flashing ROM file (if Hard SPL was flashed then in second line will be written SPL-2.20.Olinex.).
2. Connection between ActiveSync and device was not established when flashing ROM file.
Before to go any further please take your time and read Polaris Wiki to get familiar with glossary and acronyms used here.
PROCEED ONLY if flashing original ROM does not help, hard reset does not help and flash from SD card does not work.
# Solution #
1. Download MTTY software.
2. Kill ActiveSync (Press Ctrl-Alt-Del and stop rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe processes).
3. Plug Polaris into usb port (Plug directly not through hubs).
4. Start MTTY after chose USB from PORT dropdown list (if it is not listed there then ActiveSync processes were not stopped).
5. in window type: set 16 0 (enter cmd mode)
6. after type: task 8 (this will format phone)
7. after type: task 0 (this will restart phone. Not always necessary)
8. soft reset
This procedure can damage your phone. Use it as last resort.
Official source in french here.
Now before flashing any ROMs read carefully how to flash (not install!) Hard SPL.
# P.S. about install and flash termins #
This error with flashing happened to my due misunderstanding between notions of installing something on your device and flashing. In my opinion those are completely two different things. As for first I understand of running some cab or exe directly on device. So problem comes when people sees install Hard SPL en device as they try to find some cabs or exes to install directly on device or they just copy all files to device. To make things clear Hard SPL "installation" actually is ROM flash process which must be done with maximum caution, but those who did not read Wiki won't understand it.
Cheers, whitealien
BiG THX @ Whitealien.
works to 100% on my Touch Cruise.
I flashed under Vista Ultimate...
# Solution # ... addition from me for Vista users!
....
2. Start Windows Mobile Device Center and Deaktivate USB Connection and then start Task manager end kill
Process wmdc.exe.
Rest of whitealien. and have fun!
Thank you!!!!
I had given up on this, and was sure my only option was a warranty repair :O
always welcome
Thanks, you've saved my Polaris.
Mine didn't want to react anymore to the soft reset, so I replaced your instruction 8 with:
Cmd>boot
and that did the trick.

I had exactly the same problem, for whatever reason went back to original SPL before HARD SPL.
I solved my issue by using back the original original HTC RUU_signed.nbh and flash it using the CustomRUU.
Thereafter, repeat the entire HARD SPL and flash the home cooked ROM.
Cheers.
For unbricking your HTC Polaris, you can try also a hard-reset (if it is related to a software error):

- hard reset on phone
- connect to cable
- flash OFFICIAL rom
Two time I revive my Polaris.
