hi - as many of you will know the xda experiance can be an all consuming task .
i after reading many many posts would like some information on how exactly to get the mtty tool to offer me the option of usb so i can connect to my bricked xda exec.
my bootloader screen is severely distored in colour however i can get back and forth to the promt for "press x or 0 " to reset / exit. it seems this proble m is not unknown however i dont seem to be lucky when it comes to the mtty tool.
any help would be greatly appreciated : thanks in advance.
Did you disable Activesync on your PC first?
Find the (two) executables in taskmanager and end task.
V
True. And make sure you're not running Vista! (bricked my phone for a few days until I could fix that)

would you share HOW you sorted vista bricking your uni? i've had to send it for repairs because nothing i could do fixed it.
i tried updating the firmware to another of helmi's cooked roms. i've flashed the device many times and used all sorts of people's roms, and i think it was the time i switched to VISTA that bricked it.
My solution
Take the sd card from the phone... duh
It was giving the same error, when i took the card it started to work...

Strange, I never have a problem with the sd card or sim card in the phone
[1]
First make sure active sync is not running, you may have to kill the process wcescomm.exe (CTRL+ALT+DEL, Processes TAB, right click on process and End Process Tree)
[2]
If that doesn't work, change the usb cable, every time i encounter that problem - it is nearly always the usb cable, if you have a canon digital camera, those cable works for me about every time
No man... i've been tryin to get USB in dropdown list but never appears. I'm so tired of incomplete answers. I'm using vista and i kill every process indicated by you.
Did you or did you not post multiple threads on the same problem?
Try this instead of mtty.
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/nueTTY-Console-71189.shtml
Its a console that diables everything automatically.
It worked a treat for me. My phone was stuck in bootloader.... no ROM or SPL would flash (stuck at 0%) I couldn't get mtty to give me "USB" from the dropdown in Vista.
I can't get into the boot loader so it says "USB" in the bottom white area... even though USB cable is inserted, of course. If I boot up with device with USB cable inserted the only thing that happens is that the white area is blank. When unplugging the device "Serial" is written, but plugging the USB cable back in doesn't change a ****... stills says "Serial"...
Any clue, USB connector defective? Tried two cables.
nueTTYConsole says the following:
Code:
Disabling RAPI...Already Stopped!
Searching for CE USB devices to connect...
No devices found to connect, aborting...
Not restarting RAPI because it was already disabled.

My friend's jamin when he tried upgrading with smart1 wm6
after the flashing process finished it gives the 3 colors of boot loader
the screen flickers continously with the 3 colors
no way to hard reset the device
and activesync doesn't feel it
I searched all the forum for a problem like this but I didn't find any
any suggestion please, or any help?
Flash NVID Rom and try Smart again. Read WM6 upgrade Manuel and readme for the ROM.

Please how can i flash with the activesync doesn't notice my device and where's NVID Rom
Ok. I'll search for it but please help how can I flash it to the device which doesn't recognized or felt by PC
If your device is in bootloader mode, activesync cannot recognize it but this is normal. Jamin is recognize only as a usb device and you can downgrade it to NVID rom easly.
Then you could upgrade your favorite rom, I suggest PDAVIET 4.0.0.1
Bye for now

I think I didn't discuss the problem well
The Problem is when I start to flashing a rom a message tells that check if the usb is connected and if the device is connected .
This is happen with the device is connected to the cable and the tricolor screen is flicking . and the device doesn't open doesn't flashing.
must use NVID rom. maybe qtek nvid one from here? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_ROMs

If the problem still there, Try to release the battery for 1-3 hours and put it again to the device, go to the boot loader and pray. Hopefully it could work. Actually, this way worked on my Himalaya and Prophet.
Just run the "Step 1" component of the PDAViet ROM (http://rapidshare.com/files/32728615/Prophet_PDAViet_Step1.zip), which is just a plain AKU 2.20 NVID. This will find your device even if its in bootloader mode (it doesnt depend on activesync). Just flash it with that sucker and you should have a working phone on WM5, then you can safely upgrade it to WM6 (or leave it if you like).

Error 260... If i remember correctly that's "cant find device" or something.
Few things to check:
Is the PC you are upgrading on running windows vista?
If so, use a different PC running windows XP.
Have you tried a different USB cable?
If not, do so, this tends to be the cause of problems like this.
Have you checked device manager?
Go to control panel, Administrative tools, computer management, device manager and see if you can find your device. If it has a yellow ! icon on it or is listed as "Unknown device" or anything like that then you may need to reinstall the drivers (int hsi case the easiest way to do that is to reinstall activesync). If everyhting is working properly it should show up as "HTC USB Sync", "PocketPC USB Sync" or something like that under the heading "Mobile Devices".
Have you just plain tried another computer, regardless of the OS?
I found that I could never get my phone to flash on my laptop, but it worked without a problem on my desktop. This is not to say laptop's cant do it, it simply means some computers just have problems like (in my case i believe) no USB 2.0, or too low-powered USB ports.

I've tried everything... even tried it on my desktop... but my phone just wont turn on now. i've kept the battery removed for more than 8hrs now... i've even charged it for more than 8hrs non-stop..nothing happens..
maybe i should get hold of a charged battery & try it with that battery...?
Any clue how to get my phone started??

i installed "Prophet_PDAViet_Step1"
hey, i have a stock Orange SPV M3100 ie htc Hermes 100, flashed successfully with Black Satin a while ago now, no major problems and running much less glitchy than the stock rom. yesterday when i checked my phone it was on the bootloader (tri-colour). it wont leave it, soft reset hard reset. cant flash a new rom or anything as it wont connect with active sync obviously. when i reset for a second on the boot screen it says 'no image found'
tried the mtty program but cant type in it? cant press enter for it to start or whatever, prob being retarded im sure but i couldnt get it to work. pluuus on the initial open port setting menu theres no option for usb? yet the guide says select usb.
help pleeease =]
it actually says 'no image file' not found but yes anyone have any ideas?
Flash your unit with the OEM ROM using the SD Card...
hmmm have done so then soft reset and it seems to have made no difference, getting hold of a different rom to see if thats more successful...

is there a particular rom to be lookign for? tried two dfferent ones that have installed successfully but when i reset just loads up in boot screen again?!
gah most frustrating
Try looking for and then (if need be) repairing bad blocks with MTTY. Then reflash os if bad blocks were found and repaired. Remember that sometimes the carrier actually "brands" handsets with bad blocks that CANT be repaired. Hope this helps....
Hello,
I have a problem, when I connect my phone with the USB cable to my computer, it doesn't do anything. He don't recognize the phone, doesn't make any connection nor see the SD card.
I've already tried to clear the box: Enable faster data synchronization, and tried to choose Disk Drive (Faster file transfer), it all doesn't do anything.
Tried different PC's, with WMC and Active Sync 4.5, with different OS's.
The cable isn't broker or something because the only thing that happens when I connect the phone with my PC is that the orange light (battery charge) is on.
I've installed Shadowline ROM, but it did work with that rom (active sync and disk transfer).
I think it is a problem of the ROM tho, so is there any way to flash my ROM without using a PC?
Answers would be realy appreciated.
Thank you.

You can flash from the storage card, just rename the .nbh file to TOPAIMG.nbh and put on the root of your storage card, go to bootloader mode and it will flash.
Your cable can be bad and still charge. I would try a different cable.
Also try deleteing the partnership in Active Sync and try to reestablish it.
I assume you hard reset after you flashed the ROM.
I do not think its a ROM issue.
Ok thanks for your reply.
I did what you sad but when I loaded the TOPAIMG.nbh in the bootloader, it came up with an error and freezes on: Loading ...
When I restarted it It Only shows:

And then he goes to the white screen with the blue letters saying: Loading...
(I waited many times, one time for 2 hours but nothing happend).
When I put out my SD-card and the battery and connect the phone with the USB (my pc still don't see recognize anything) it will boot to the exact same screen as I typed here above but then he stays at that one.
I can't do anything, already tried to hard reset him but that also didn't work.
It feels like im pretty screwed..
Please help!
Maybe you have a problem with the mini USB.
Happen to me with Touch HD.
If so take it to a reppair shop.
Well, I borrowed and USB cable from my friend and now he indeed makes an connection. But no active sync connection. I also can't see my SD card in My Computer. He still only shows the screen that I typed here above, but then under in the white area a little text: USB
What do I have to do next to fix it,
please help
thanks

I am concerned that you screen shot shows SPL 1.83.00, but you have flashed Shadowline's ROM.
It should say SPL: 1.83.00Olinex which would mean you have HSPL installed which is absolutely required to flash a custom ROM.
Did you have that ROM operational and just couldn't sync, or has the device not worked since you flashed this ROM?
Yes, I had the shadowline ROM, and it al worked good. I also could connect my mobile to my pc with the USB cable.
I don't know what happend, I didn't install any other program or something else but I suddently couldn't connect my mobile phone to my pc anymore.
But I wanted another ROM because I noticed that the Shadowline ROM feld a little bit laggy, so I found out that you can do that by your booting with the SD card.
And I know that you have to install hardSPL first, so I downloaded that one from the big post in this ROM forum from Topaz.
Booted with the SD card, and then when I started to flash the ROM he gave an error and now I have to problem that I can't do anything anymore.

I guess my point was if you had Shadowlines ROM, you were already HSPL'd, no need to do again.
Hard reset the phone and try to install ROM from SD.
Hi,
i had once the same problem. No connection with PC anywhere. I couldnt do nothing with that and was quite desperate about that.
But once suddenly it came to work again. I am not sure what made it work again but the only thing I can guess was that I took out and gave back the memory card with the turned on phone. Since then I have never had this problem again.
I wish you that this taking out of memory card helped you too.
Well, If I'm hard resetting, the only thing he does is show the percentages, then he says completed, then he reboot en I'm back at the tri-color screen again.
And I can't enter the bootloader, so I also can't install the ROM from the Sd-card.
And taking out the memory card while the phone is on also dont work
Any other options what maby will work?

Just some points;
Make sure the .nbh file is named excatly TOPAIMG.nbh paying attention to the case of the letters.
When you attempt to go into Bootloader, Holding Voume Down and Power buttons at the same time when phone is off, what screen appears?
[Q] my handset doesn´t recognize sd apps
I had the same problem as well, so I deactivated and reactivated the SD card from the phone, actually I cant take out the sd with the turned on phone. It worked once, but it happened again so i tried to the same but know the deactivate function in settings doesnt worked. Now i dont know what to do. if anyone could help me i would be very thankful.
My handset is a xperia x10 with 2.1 generic flashed bb 2.1.54, and 2.2 wolbreak gingerbread rom.

Gone through the various help threads on rebooting, resetting etc.. Battery is charged, m/card and sim have been removed..
Phone is at the boot loader stage - reads Upgrade ROM code error - have the USB plugged in and can see the USB writing on the white part of the red,green,blue,white screen but pc refuses to make a connection.. keeps saying activsync not connected or busy..
Have tried rebooting the phone and also the pc, changed cables, changed USB port.. no joy..
Any suggestions appreciated..
not sure what you want...but you have certainly described the situation really well.
i understand that your device is in the bootloader (thats the multi-color screen). i understand that "USB" is written at the bottom of the bootloader screen. i understand that you have removed all the cards.
what i don't understand is what you want help with? why are you trying to establish an activesync connection? activesync will obviously NOT connect if you are in the bootloader because the bootloader isn't the same as windows. windows mobile must be running if you want a full activesync connection.
so what exactly are you looking for? do you want to flash a ROM or radio ROM or some such? are you simply trying to "hard reset" your device? details please!
yea, dont be confused by posts that say 'when connected to active sync, blahblahblah', they dont really mean activesync the program, they simply mean a usb connection. The fact that it says USB on the white part means you can now run your rom flash,.
ok.. what I am trying to do is re-flash the ROM.. I had a flashed ROM on there and I was just going to upgrade it to the latest one (Laurentius26 GoldEdition V3.4 Stock/Spike™ WWE 23568) and about 20% of the way through it froze and then I get a recovery screen come up.. followed the instructions and started to flash again and the same thing happened.
In both cases it seems as if the USB connection was dropped even though there was nothing else happing on the pc at the time.. now when I try to re-flash, no US connection is being established.
Well I left everything disconnected last night and tried again this morning. We have got a connection now but the re-flash has failed again so I shall just go back to the old ROM.. thanks for you all's input.
probably a bad ROM download. I would try to download again and if that doesn't fix it, let the ROM cooker know that he probably has a bad upload of the ROM.
