When I try to update to WM 6.5 or to Opal_HardSPL_v2_0, or to any other 6.1 updates. I get connection error either 202 or 260, device hangs with wait (4color) circle in the middle.
I tried the following and nothing helps:
Windows 7
XP
Vista
Manual Opal_HardSPL_v2_0.exe file (device hangs)
Updated active sync on xp and wmdc on vista/7
Any thoughts?
I can't enter bootloader screen either, tried by powering down, and then holding volume down key and powering up. It boots straight back to WM.
Hello , so install Hard SPL Manualy in your viva , and next run the updater.
To the best update use Windows XP / Professional
Now I Use Windows 7 to Update Opal
Any Question Contact-me ....
Now i will updated the version 26
I Will Back

thanks for a reply,
when I try to go into SSPL manually, phone hangs with the same 4color circle and soft reboot required.
Is there a problem with my version of opal, is it a cheaper one with bad processor?
I have tried both XP, Vista and now Windows 7, same issue on all of them.
Thanks
I got same error, too. Error 202: connection is not established though my Opal and laptop was sync properly.
make sure that you are connected via ActiveSync.
but when power is off, press both volume key down and send (green) button at the same time and press power button... that triggers the tri-color bootloader menu... and from there you can update your phone.
Device is off.
I press and hold vol down and green button(left), and then press and release power - device boots right into Windows mobile - no boot loader screen.
When I press and hold vol down and red button(right), and then press and release power - device shows blue screen for few seconds and then boots into Windows mobile - no boot loader screen.
Like I said manual HARDSLP file does not work, as device hangs after running this file.
Wha is going on? Is my device broken somehow?

by UPDATE you mean FLASH a new ROM????
can you connect your phone via activesync? if yes...then do this
#go to settings>connections>USB to PC and uncheck/disable/unmark 'Enable faster data synchronization' option.
#establish an activesync connection
#copy the Opal-SSPL-Manual.exe to the phone and run it in the phone
#your phone should go to grey mode (i thinks its what you mean by 'hang')
#now in your PC...run Opal_HardSPL_v2_0.exe and follow the onscreen instructions.
#your phone should reboot and enter into bootloader mode now.
i also suggest that you flash ur opal with a new ROM via the memory card...it is safer than activesync. you can do a search in the forum for 'flash via sd card'. I do it that way only now...no worry about disconnection or connection error... if you cannot find the thread...just let me know and i will try to help you out.
hope that this was helpful...
Correct way to enter into bootloader mode
@All having problems:
Its really weird that you are not able to enter in bootloader mode so most probably you are using the correct way to enter into bootloader mode.
Ok here is the correct way, really detailed.
1. Open your phones back cover.
2. Pull out the stylus.
3. And press the red button which is soft reset button. (No need to hold that button just a press)
4. Soon after pressing the red buton press and hold volume down button. (Now the important thing is dont release volume down button until you reach bootloader mode, You will be there in about 3 sec.)
Note: If the above not working then just before 3rd step press the power button and soon after the vibration of phone on smart mobility screen follow the 3rd step.

Since I upgraded my hermes with a Elite ROM , I can´t install other ROMS cause the RUU don´t work. Even if I try to put the hermes in bootloader mode with sfot keys and stylus it simply reebots normally.
How can I workaround this issue?
I am using Windows 7 in my PC.
Press the Power Button (right) and the OK button (left, near the wheel jog).
Don't release these buttons, and soft reset your Hermes.
I hope I can help you, thanks..

And no harm running the RUU as administrator & with compatibility mode to Vista or XP.
You can check the respective boxes by right-clicking the RUU & modifying the properties under Compatibility.
That should ensure software compatibility under Windows 7 for the RUU.

i have new leo with ROM 1.43 today after trying to upgrade to ROM 1.66 I did everything as asked, the installer began , with all the colours on the leo display then it started the percent completion counter , and after 2% it wrote me error something , and the leo restarted but stuck in the white start up menu with the green HTC icon and below the R G D information but the device doesnt proceed further and stuck here !!!
please help !!!!
o bought the device in europe , but i am from israel , htc sent me notification about new arabic ROM with link , i tried with my serial to download but couldnt , it wrote me "this upload not compatible with ur device" , i downloaded it from here XDA developers , but it went wrong !! , the problem that the phone stuck in the loader menu , before uploading the sense interface , and i have no connection between the pc and the phone "no active sync" so how can i reinstall the older version or make the phone load again ?!!?!! plz help !
I would recommend to do a hard reset in the first place and see if that helps.
I don't know how you did the upgrade and what the exact error message was, but you have always the option of installing HSPL and a custom ROM, as long as you can connect through USB - that is entering bootloader (the tri-color screen) and seeing "USB" at the bottom of the screen.
Similar cases have been discussed recently at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625363
Most important: do not lose hope, there's always a way

Hi,
I now have a custom ROM on my HTC Hero, but I have had a lot of trouble with it. And since the 2.1 update is hopefully is coming soon, I want to get my Hero back to what is was when I bought it. I want to remove the recovery image (this is the screen I see when I wipe it and install new ROMs from?) and my current ROM, and install the official HTC ROM.
I hope this is possible and somebody can help me. And sorry for my poor English and lack of knowledge.
Just download and install the official firmware from HTC support page.
But I can only find an upgrade there, not the whole ROM.
They are complete ROMs about 100MB each.
You can also look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622
Ok, thanks. I will download and try to install.
My main concern is that I get an error if I try to call (something with "com.android.phone" isn't working). I can't call out and nobody can call me. Hope this wil fix it.
Problem when I run the RUU
I want to do the same, but when I run HTC official RUU, after a while it stops and sends me the usb / connection error that is not connected, and the phone keep standing in the fastboot.
I have tried with all of HTC ruu, and i 2 different computer, and still have the same problem.
Try using windows XP not vista or 7...
Argghhh...
So you propose to change windows for make my phone virgin. No way.
How does it work with mac?
cant see why there would be a difference between XP / win7, but if it is.. just right click the file and run in compability mode with XP, shouldnt be any difference then.
I had exactly the same problem till i used win XP. Compatibility didn't work.

I will test this mode.
Hard Reset HTC Hero
1. Switch off the phone (either removing the battery or shutting down by holding the "end call" button for few seconds
2. While being switched off, hold the "home" (house) and "back" (the arrow in the lower right corner)
3. Hit briefly the "end call" button" while still holding the "home" and "back" buttons.
4. Release the "home" and "back" button, a white screen containing technical information should appear, with a red message asking for hitting the "menu" button.
5. Hit the "menu button", the Hero will now boot with factory settings.

Hi,
I'm using W7 and I had the same problem. I've wait that the USB connection is lost (and the RUU tell me that he cannot go forward) and let the phone in this pseudo "RUU waiting mode". and restart the RUU on the computer. Then it works... I don't know if it works with mac but with W7 it does ;-)
Cheers!

Now it will not connect at all with the RUU. Even with the hard reset.
definitively a driver problem :-/ Are you on mac or W7 ?
On W7.
But the htc sync works normally when i don't try to use the RUU.
Mate.. Just google "HTC Hero Win7 drivers". Install the correct drivers from Device Manager and voila.
yep or uninstall the drivers and install the last ones on the htc website. There is a tutorial I've followed which as worked 100% /execpt the little trick with starting the ruu again in wating mode:
this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645253 and it works ;-) at least for me
for the drivers the phone should be reconized in recovery mode (it make the little noise for usb device plugged ;-)
I was wondering if anyone out there can help me.

You install MAGDLR 1.12 the same way as you installed MAGDLR 1.1.
Read through the forums and use some common sense.
Hopefully a slightly more helpful response...
To place the HD2 into Bootloader mode, remove the HD2's back cover hold down the volume down key, now press in the red reset button under the back cover to the bottom left of the SIM, release the soft reset button but continue to hold the volume down key in until you are presented with the tri colour bootloader screen. To exit Soft Reset the device.

hi dudes i am new here and i think i fu*ked my hd2 up... can you guys help... what should i do... Flashed failed on PC and now i get fatal hit 4 on my hd2... what should i do!? How do i reflash it?
Hmmm, i would start right from the beggining again.
Re-flash MAGLDR by holding down the volume button whilst pressing on.
Then, re-flash WP7.
Alternatively use the MAGLDR youve got, and hold down the on off button and go to flash on the menu (cant remember exactly what it says on menu
If I were you I'd do the following. Might seem a lot like overkill, but should work 100%.
1 - Go into bootloader (press and hold vol down button then power on as normal)
2 - Flash any WM6.5 ROM
3 - Charge the battery to 100%
4 - Perform a Task 29
5 - Flash a 2.xx.50.x radio
6 - Flash Magldr
7 - using vol down button select option 5 from magldr menu
8 - when phone says USB flash WM7 (suggest YukiXDA for the mo until a ripe MANGO released)
i made it but can you give me a good wp7 rom and radio file? ty

EDIT:: I got it resolved, I could not figure out the way I need to press both the vol+ & vol- button at once during the 1234 GoGo screen... It worked
what do you want? cant understand you... You want to clear data or hard reset windows 7 phone... You need MAGLDR just when you flash the windows 7 phone rom...
