Have I Screwed Up This Time? Tell me it ain't sooo

Ever since I flashed my rom with the 4.00.10 I have not been able to get my old image back on it nor flash a different rom image. Have I totally messed this thing up? This is the error that I get...
error getting connectiontype
Even though it connects with active sync just fine, it says it can't get connection type. How can I overcome this? I booted up to the bootloader diagnosis and tested the USB connection and it passed. I am a novice and should not have been messing with this and now I want my original rom back!
Please help me. What can I do to fix this problem on my XDA?
Desperate.

I Just Had to Walk Away and Come Back
Whew! I read some more and discovered the very small step that I had missed all weekend. Everything works now except my GPRS connection. I will read some more to fix that! Thank goodness for this forum!!

Help please - MDA Compact not booting up

Hello everyone! I really, really hope you can help me!
I have a T-Mobile MDA Compact. I was upgrading the ROM version tonight to the latest version (blackberry version) My MDA would appear to have crashed mid-way through the upgrade. The upgrade software told me to reset the device and try the upgrade again. So I reset the device.. all I get on the screen is "USB V1" and when I select the new rom file I get an error which says "Error 120: Country ID Error N-N-38-38-38" The ROM image that you are trying to use is not designed to work on your device. Please check the vender Website and download the correct ROM update.
This is the correct ROM update. I'm using a T-Mobile branded handset the update is definitely a T-Mobile update. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? is there another update or even a completely new ROM version I can use to get my phone working again? It's the only phone I've got and I urgently need it for work
Thanks, Tom :?

OK so now it loads up and gets as far as 'loading config txt' and then it just sits there. Again I try the rom update but I'm told ROM is wrong for my device.

Hi Tom,
Use maupgradenoid.exe or a simular named program from the ftp over here. Maybe you have to run it twice to bypass your error. Use the program instead of the, probably named maupgrade, .exe which you get when you unzip your shipped rom. No need to zip it again, just unzip into an empty folder put the maupgradenoid.exe in the same folder. Put your device in bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset until it reads serial v1) connect it to usb, now it reads usb v1 & run this noid.exe.
Good luck, M
Ps. sometimes you need to add or change a line in config.txt, you can find that in one of the latest posts by parklife in
the thread about the official TMO 1.13 rom

Incase you upgraded to a new T-Mobile ROM, i think you can take it to the T-Mobile store for fixing.

Perfect!! That seems to have worked!! Thank you!!!

THANKS

THANKSSSSSSSSS

Hmn. I would also like some help with this too, as I recently came into a wing that had been 'upgraded' to one of the ROMs from wingster before I received it. I was able to hard reset it thru the settings but when I go to install the 'official' T-Mobile ROM over the hard reset it does the same thing: (ERROR [260] : Connection) and I have tried to do this again after a PC reboot, no luck.
Please and Thanks.
After digging around a bit more, I hope this helps:

[Q] not rooted lg gt540 official update fail messed phone up help please

hi peeps, this is my 2nd phone i messed up this week lol, thought i would plug the phone in to laptop and see if there was any official updates for it as it was on 2.1 and ive never tried to root this phone (yet) any way said there was an update so i started it going and it lost connection and crashed so searched for hours on the net how to get the phone back up and running after it bricked and downloaded kdz update software, had trouble to get it to flash phone but it did it and i thought every thing worked again till i noticed that the phones signal is full and shows my network provider but i cant make any calls out and cant receive any same with text messaging but and this is strange i can use the internet on it and i dont mean connecting through wifi, ive tried to re flash it through kdz updater and keep getting this launching SW update, unpacking KDZ, KDZ file extraced, extract file error ===FINISHED===
so i have no idea why its doing that worked before, also get problems some times with keeping the phone connected to laptop and installed windows 7 drivers and disabled the phones modem driver
i have also phoned my network and asked them if theres a problem and they tried to phone the phone and couldnt work out the problem as the imei is not blocked and is still present on the phone which hasnt been changed by flashing it so have no clue whats wrong. if any body has an idea please get in touch

any body please. is there a way to flash original settings to phone like i did with flashtool for my se xperia x8 after i had a similar problem after messing with roms and did the same till i reflashed with original settings

the phone was an unlocked carphone warehouse phone running on o2 network in the uk, unable to return phone as warrenty ran out etc, many people have had problems with the lg update and bricked phone like i did after it failed half way through it but i used kdz updater to get it up and running again but having problem with it making and reciving calls and texts but it is able to use internet through o2 network. i have got a few kdz files to try re flashing it with them but kdz updater starts to extract file then gives an error now but didnt before, saying that my laptop needs a clean out as well full of crap from messing with phones
