Hello,
Well to explain my problem. I had the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID flashed onto my O2 XDA Neo. No problems, but sometimes I couldn't go back to desktop because "programms" didn't want to close. So I went to look for a dutch firmware. I found one and tried it. It didn't work, but my XDA Neo was already at 1% and didn't go further. So I pulled the cable out of the telephone. Now it doens't pass the red, green, blue screen when starting the phone. Hard reset doens't help eather. Wenn I connect it to the computer, activesync says "not connected".
On the screen it says:
RUU
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
Please help me out, because I really don't know what to do anymore
Encountered your case before while trying to downgrade with no success.
I suggest you try to turn back to dopod wwe rom and install it again before further attempts to brick your device.
Active sync tells it's not connected, that's normal because you connect a device which has no rom now.
You should see "USB" at the bottom of the screen once connecting to PC. Then start the rom update.
It will try to discover what's in your pda and will report you "nothing", which is logic. Click update and go. It should proceed...
Good luck.

Thank you so much! I reflashed my old rom, and the device works fine again. But is it not possible to run an older rom? I would like to have the dutch version.
If your device is Sim unlocked, you may try the famous specific rom availIable at:
http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=437&PN=1&TPN=1
This rom is for downgrading in a first step and cid unlocking in the second step exclusively and not for continous use . Once these two task are done, you can install any ROM you want.
Reminder: You can not install other language without CID unlocking.

It is not true. You can install any language ROM using NoVendorID patched reflashing utility.
Yes and no!
If the ROM to write is never "patched rom update utility" will bypass the CID check step and continue to install.
But it the new rom is older (ie 2.09 to write over 2.13) problems start there and you get an error in most cases. In that case we need to downgrade.
I've faced and practiced both cases.
Thanks for details...
Hi Profs,
there are some problems with a Artemis Update SPL (USPL) v.01. I've found this problem is several topic but there was no solution for it.

The problem:
use USPL to get rid of the CID....count goes up to 100% screen shows black with green text, then pops to white. I need to do a soft reset to get it running again.
Then i use ROM Update Utility to update my p3300....and it still keeps hanging on 3%....damn. i get mad...!! Have read almost all here online...no virusscanner, no firewall....I use win XP.
i even tried without memory card and phone card....and nothing seems to work.......
ipl 1.14.0001
spl 1.14.0000
gsm 02.07.90
os 1.14.0.0
Who has any clue...?
With other words:
I've just got back my P3300 from repair, they changed the main board. With the previous main board I was able to upgrade the device and I was using the B&B versions.
But with this new board I'm not able to upgade the SPL. When I try to upgade the device after and start the start_uspl .exe the 10...20... ....100 my device become an interresting "blue screen" status and only the reset help to get out from this status. If I start the RomUpdateUtility.exe after the upgrade I got the error message #270
IPL: 3.13.0001
SPL: 3.13.000
GSM: 02.94.90
ROM version: 3.13.405.1.WWE
ROM date: 8/28/07
ExtROM version: 3.12.405.102
This is not the solution for the problem. I've tried it:
Plug in USB cable. Hold voice recorder button and press reset button. Bootloader will appear (Three color stripes). Then you may flash up ROM. (This works only for RUU installation types, not for PDAmobiz modified installator) Original english HTC P3300 ROM you may download form here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...temis_Upgrades ....
Please help us to solve this problem....
Probably the same problem
This should be the same:
Hello POF,
I was directed to this link by Rudegar because I want to change the french ROM to English ROM.
The relevant data of my PDA is:
The version of the ROM: 1.14.406.1 FRE
Date of ROM: 9/27/06
Radio version: 02.67.90
Protocol version: 4.1.13.28
ROM extension version: 1.14.406.101
I tried exactly the way you described in the USPL_manual and everything went well till I got to a stage where I was asked to click the update button which I did. After then there was a window which showed "updating from current version to version 9.99". I was confused at this point but clicked "continue" and after this stage I got an error message and there was no longer a connection bw my PDA and my computer.
Thanks,
Jonat

Problem "lost connection PDA-PC"
Hi,
first I would like to thank you for goooood job to many people here !
Back to my problem. I have HTC Artemis (T-Mobile MDA Compact III), OS WM6 T-Mobile Czech version.
I ran start_uspl.exe on my computer. The part in DOS based screen seems to finish everytime OK, but finally the connection with PC is lost. Therefore when the PDA Phone ROM Update Utility starts cheking version the error "lost connection with PC" appears . PDA stay in "black screen" mode and only hard reset start it again as usual.
Does anybody have the same problem? Any idea, how to solve it ?
Thanks

When the screen goes white, don't restart. Just start flashing to the new ROM. Worked for me
Unfortunately it not a white screen, it a black one, connenction lost with the PC, and only the reset PDA helps to restart the unit again....

Same situation as above. Depending on the Artemis, the screen might go white or black. Just don't freak out and keep on flashing the USPL. It WILL work and then reboot. Then you can flash the actual ROM you want.
Hello from an absolut newbie trying his first upgrade,
And I have just experienced the same problem than lenocs.
I have run start_uspl.exe, but when the screen is suposed to become white or dark, it becomes dark and the artemis is in fact totally off and connection is lost.
Anyway I supossed that it was because the scrren got black and I tried to run the update utility, but I´ve got an error (the terminal is disconnected or similar) and nothing happens.
I have had to soft reset the terminal and fortunatelly it seems that I still have my previous ROM and it seems that it works. But, do you know if there could be some "side effect" because the first step of start_uspl script?
Anyway I would like to move to WM6, so, any suggestion would be really appreciated.
Thank's a lot
When you restart, what is the USPL number?
Ooopppssss!
I didn't pay attention.
As I've said, I'm a newbie, so I was just woried because I thought I had "bricked" my new atemis.
How can I know now the USPL number?
Anyway I tried the star_uspl again (I'm a crazy newbie) and it failed. The artemis went off almost inmediately.
Thank you very much for your help

solved ... at least for me
I think the problem is in SPL version 3.13 (or maybe anyone newer than 1.11).
Try different Artemis USPL - for me worked version from this page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_DumpedRoms
It's very confusional, because file sizes and also dates are the same as in unfunctional version, but this one worked.
Hope it'll help you as it helped to me.
Maybe this can help you
I bought a 8gb card the week before, so I needed to update the rom in order to have my new SDHC working. But whn I was trying to update the rom, through UPSL 1.1, I had an error. This was the first time I had an error because I have modified the room many times before. My error was about a CMD.EXE issue, something like Error code line 26 "can´t spawn cmd.exe" so I was not able to change my rom. What I did was to copy CMD.EXE from Windows/System32 and put in the same folder where I had the start_uspl file, and finally works!
Do not ask me why, but this was the only way I could make works the update process.
Just try.

Problem solved (for me)
Hi,
i had the same problem error 270, 3% and lost connection with Activesync.
IPL: 3.13.0001
SPL: 3.13.000
GSM: 02.94.90
ROM version: 3.13.405.1.WWE
ROM date: 8/28/07
any way to upgrade was wrong ->> error 270
My good way was:
1. Downgrade to WM5 - original shipped ROM 1.12.405.1(link found on Wiki pages)
2. Under WM5 run USPL to unlock CID (now without any errors)
3. Final STEP - Upgrade to new ROM Artemis Touch 3.01 (without any errors by upgrade)
))
Now my Artemis seems to be OK.
I ran USPL with storage card inside the device...
no problem
switch SD card back to 2GB or smaller before USPL
Hi,
for me USPL did not work with my SDHC 8GB card but then I switched back to my previous 2GB SD card and then it works.
Perhaps the SDHC driver blocks USPL in some way.
Cheers,
Markus

Hello:
I have the same problem and realized hundereds have too. I have been checking in all forums and no asolution to it
The issue that happens to me is that I used USPL for upgrading to WM6 and worked, but now for the Touchflo it does not. Tried with all USB ports, tried with different computers and no good news.
The USPL msdos screen indicates that there is no connection at all in all percentage levels, then it bocomes dark and the 260 error whne installing the rom.
please help us soon !!!
we are in trouble!!
Same Problem : Screen shut down
Anybody can help us on this point ?
The only way to solve it is to remove the batterie during 30 min., then put it back and pray...
Then, for no reason, the screen shut down, a few minutes or days after
I've upgrade from WM5 to WM6 with the original Rom of HTC, it seems a little more stable but it shut down every 2 days when i'm lucky
Hello,
can some one help me please.
I try to flash my touch cruise and at 99% his stop.
after i just have 3 color screen and can't flash.
I try hard reset but it still color screen.
in the screen i got :
POLA100
SPL-1.25.0000
CPLD-2
Which rom did you try to flash on your device? I would suggest to check out the threads that relate to that rom. If you have used Olipro's hard-spl and followed all the steps for flashing the rom, maybe you could ensure your device is fully charged,that the file you have downloaded (rom) is not corrupted and try flashing it again.

You had to hard-spl your device first!!
I have use Hard-SPL-V2 and when it get at 99%, it stop and then i get the 3 colors screen.
the rom I want to flash is the bepe 0.56.
Is my phone is over or I can get it work again.
I alreasy try to flash with the original HTC rom also, but don't work.

Sorry, just to be clear. It only gets to 99% of the Hard SPL V2? So the problem is not the rom you tried to flash but the Hard Spl?
The Hard-SPL-V2 that i have try is by Olipro, and I follow all the instruction.
I don't know why he stop at 99%.
I ask SFR, and they can't do anythink.
I think it's over for my phone .
I will try to ask HTC if they can do something and how it will cost.
hope give you good news .
Flash Problem
Hello,
I have the same problem...do you already have solution for your case ?!?!
Thank you in advance !
Ignore this post - I had IE troubles and double posted - See next post
Just to be very very clear since you are talking of HardSPL and of bepes ROM and mix all up:
You did not apply HardSPL to your device!
A device which has HardSPL applied would read "Pola100 MFG, SPL-2.20.Olinex, CPLD-2" at the 3-color-screen. Your device is still with the original bootloader. I suggest you try applying the HardSPL V2 again until it works or you get bored. Exactly follow instructions given in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=370434
Hello, i had the same problem, i just soft reset my device and flash it back, it went up to 100% without any problem
Not working
Hello,
On device when I just connect the usb cable I get the three colour display with info:
POLA100
SPL-1.25.0000
CPLD-2.
Then I follow the instrutions, but when I get the step 7 the device appears always on 0% and get always the error 262.
Do you know how to fix this?!?!?

You did something wrong. You have still original spl!
The correct steps:
Download hard-spl.
Plug your pda to pc.
On Pc run RomUpdateUtiliy (from Hard-spl folder)
Now you will see on PDA a tricolor screen and will be asked replug your usb cable. DO IT.
After Few minutes pda will reboot, hard-spl is installed.
Download the rom.
Now, STEP MANUALLY to bootlader. (press and hold camera, and press reset)
You will see a tricolor screen with OLINEX on your pda.
On the pc run the RomUpdateUtiliy (from the downloaded rom folder)
After Few minutes pda will reboot, new rom is installed.
See the images attached please.
I never get the "Replug information".
It's strange that Image version doesn't appear...
Thank in advance !
Now you will see on PDA a tricolor screen and will be asked replug your usb cable. DO IT.
On your PDA screen !
Not on your computer screen.
For information for my Polaris.
I found a phone shop in Paris, the boss of the shop say he can do something and I wait if he could or not.
Hope he will get me good news.
See this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=373725
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):

- connect to cable
- flash OFFICIAL rom

Hi,
I have installed the last official version on WM6.1 on my htc.
Now i want to install one custom rom from this forum.
I tried to istall first HardSPL, but i don't know why, the process get stuck at 0% of the install and never continue.
If i try to reinstall Official WM6.1 it works fine, but with HardSPL 0%.
In the 3 color screen appear:
POLA100
SPL-3.13.0000
CPLD-2
Someone can help me?
Thanks
Why double posting?
Do some more reading about how to flash. There are millions of posts about that, with many tips and tricks.
Active synch your PDA
On the PDA tap yes to the two prompts to load programs#
When you get to the tri colour screen unplug the usb lead - wait a couple of seconds - plug back in and the install should continue and jump from 0% to 100% quickly.
It Works!!!!
Thanks a lot, i have spedn 3 days trying to intall it and reading the forum.
Thanks a lot.
