HELP!!! Killed my beloved device...? (Upgrading)

Hi all.
Need some help really bad. Tried to upgrade my magician (s100) to ROM 1.11.133WWE from qtek.se.
Did exactly as it said I had to but as soon as I started the upgrading my magician went all dead and black and the install shield wizard went down. The only thing left on the computer screen is a box that says: "checking the information on your device... please wait...
Please dont disconnect your device from your PC until the update is completed".
So what do I do?!?!
Am desperate to get my device working again!
Please please help me!

I'm really sorry to here this ... anyway..
As far as I know.. u have my to disconnect ur PPC from the USB cable, then restart PC, u should continue to upgrade after u PC restarts..
u may also try to change the port of the USB cable as well...
this may work on Win XP, I don't know anything about other OS..
I'm not sure about this since I did not face this problem b4..but this solution was reported in another forum ( and maybe here )
I hope this will help...and maybe someone else could give u more INFO...
cheers

Alive!
Got it working!
Did a couple of reboots and that made the trick...
Now, my only problem is that I cant seem to restore my backup-files
Does anyone know where I can download the free program o2plus that I had earlier? Can´t find it anywhere. Loved that thing...
Thanx!

I believe it is better if u do a new fresh installation of everything instead of making a restoration
many users reported problems when restoring after an upgrade...
mostly, ur device will become very slow ....

touch dual stuck in tri-colour

hi folks,
I am in real trouble. while trying to unlock i hard-resetted it, but now the phone is got stuck in tri-colour mode, I don't know what to do. Basically now it went like funny. it would not turn on, while u put it on to charge it will show the tri-colour and also if i leave it on charge it is getting hot. Do u guys recon any chip to be hitted?
if u need to know anything else pls let me know.
Regards

have you loaded a rom on to it?

hi there,
Not actually, basically one of my friend tried to unlock it in first place. I don't really know what he did with that. but the phone is totally dead now. If anyone can help me that will be highly appreciated because this phone is not mine, this is customer's.
If he tried to put rom on it what consequence would happen and is there any way to get out of there?
Regards

windows software gone
Hello there,
It's me again. I think on this the software is missing. Because if i connect it to the computer it brings on the tri-colour and shows usb connection. So, the software i think missing. If anyone can give me a link how to put the software in there i will appreciate that. But still i am not pretty sure why it is getting hot while charge and why it is not turning on even it charged.
thanx

If you are stuck in the bootloader, download MTTY, connect via USB (Activ Sync must disabled via USB!!!) and type the Command "boot"

Try it ... search for Tri-Color or Bootloader Mode.

still no solution
No success mate. I have downloaded the mtty. and it says usb port cannot open. but if i go to com3 it allows me to write something over there. i write boot on it but nothing happening , and actually i don't know what would happen?
regards

Try it again ... again ... again ... you need to connect VIA USB!!!!!!!!
If he cant Open ... shut down your Activ Sync!
If you cant ... use a other PC. Vista have some bugs and Windows XP 64 too.

no connection with pc

hi
i have a htc touch elf0100 and i'm having a lot of trouble trying to get a connection with my pc. i already read every post here and i don't seem to find the solution to my problem.
here's the thing. i make a hard reset because i was having a lot of trouble with the room that i have so, i decided to make it, but when he reboot it won't pass by the align screen and now i'm stuck in the boot loader screen.
it says that the ipl is 2.27.002 and the spl is 2.28.0000, what i need is to make a connection with my pc so i can flash the room with the one that i have. i try with the mtty but i just can't get the usb port open, and i have try everything.
my o/s is win xp sp3
so please if someone could help me, i'll be very thankful
and i'm sorry about my english, bye.

i think the problem is in mini usb port in ur elf. go to htc customer care.

before sending it off to the care center maybe try a different cable
also..when you plug your device in,does it charge?
I kinda had the same problem which disappeared after a while...

cable
I too had a smiler issue, now Im using the cable that came with my camera, and it works perfectly.

I just have the same problem,changed usb cable,tried on other pc with activesync 4.5 but again csn't syncronize with the phone.plz help.

maybe u can't believe this but i tried device reset via phone menu,then synchronization done ok.

please senior members i need ur attention ,,

i was upgrading my prophet but wen it was reboot it stucked on 3 colour screen and stoped and when i connect USB the computer give sound tht a device got connected but the prophet dont show any sign that a light which get on when we connect usb or chraging adapter and the active sync only shows an error in computer when i unconnect the usb,.,.,.,.please please help senior member's.,.,.,.,.,i would be very thankful to u
regardz.,

Since you could enter the 3-colour screen, your prophet would not have been bricked. Check this forum and wiki, try to update it via different methods.

please try a hard reset, that should help solve the problems.
i doubt if this is anything to do with ROM you flashed (since you have flashed successfully, as your phone does boot.
if none of this works please post.
a hard reset should help you though.

i see, error222.
please make sure that your USB cable is working.
pleasemake sure your computer has active sync 4.5 installed ( if windows XP)
or the latest WMDC (if vista or win7 )
also regarding the memory card, are u sure the card is fine ?
please put it another device/card reader and check, try formatting it and see if ur elf detects it.
ROMs usually don't have anything to do with memory drivers.
what HSPL/USPL did u flash ?
