I goofed: Now my 4350 is no more

I know that this has been partly addressed in other threads, but I failed to find an answer so this is a desperate plea for assistance.
My 4350 is an unbranded and not locked device. This may (or may not) be of significance. It has a Swedish keyboard, and I *guess* that the rom also was swedish (no way to find out right now I guess). Current version numbers are
IPL 1.08.0001
SPL 1.08.0001
GSM 02.71.90
this is all that is shown after my failed attempt to flash the device with a WM6 image. Maybe I did not pay attention, maybe the flash failed for another reason.
Anyway, I downloaded the PDAVIET ROM WM6.0 v4.12.07.05, discussed here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=318962
During the flashing, I got a single error saying
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - The drive cannot find the sector requested.
Edit: I guess this was caused by me forgetting to disable power save in the device. At least this was hinted by someone else in another thread. Am I correct?
After the failed boot, I tried to write another rom image using the RUU program. The RUU failed to identify the current image version, and when I proceeded to write the new rom 5.4.405.1, the progress bar on the handheld goes to 2%, and then reboots. The RUU then says "ERROR 294: INVALID VENDER ID"
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So what can I do now? Except call to HTC support and see if they can help me to revive the device ...
More important, what did I do wrong?

If you get the message that says INVALID VENDER ID then it means that you are using the wrong RUU. For example I have a WWE device and if I used a Russion RUU I would get a invalid vender id error or vice versa.
The only solution for you at this moment is to find a swedish RUU. If there isn't a swidish RUU then you will have to wait untill the WM6 RUU is released.

ok, I understand that by now. But what if I can find a person that owns a Herald with a V5 Swedish rom. Is there a way to "suck" the rom out and then re-install it on my device?
I think that I have read that you can dump the rom to the SD card, but I can not find the posting. Anyone?
Anders

I have heard of this before but I don't know how to do it sorry.

You can make A ROM Dump (check the WIKI for more info) but you will not be able to flash this dump on your Herald.

Ah that is true because the only method that we herald/wing/terra users have at this moment AFAIK is using asergs methods which would require you to be in a working OS. Correct?

Totally correct! we need OR the official HTC WM6 update, RUU in your own language (for a working OS), OR a modified bootloader that allows unsigned code..

Tu jest do pobrania obraz karty ze zgranym RADIO-ROM-em 1.14.10 ; ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Technical/XDA Exec ERROR 114/
Potrzebujemy kart o pojemności do 128MB nawiekszych nie zadziała ( karta powinna być sformatowana na FAT32)
Jak to robimy (przykład) :
( dysk) :\>ntrw.exe write xxx.img (karta):
where i can find ntrw.exe file
Wkładamy kartę do slotu. Wprowadzamy Uni w tryb BL a dalej tak jak na rysunku z manuala.
Jesli uzyskamy : "sections=1 not allow update".
To oznacza to że musimy zdjąć CID-a .
Uwaga procedura opracowana wyłącznie teoretycznie - nie mam możliwości jej sprawdzenia

can some1 explain this step by step, the pic doesnt really show anything, imean after the boot loader i dont see those stuff? some1 help plz, i have the same problem no gsm = no phone= no life.

I've created this only theoreticaly.
It probably will work if your Uni is Cid unlocked .
You can download image for SD card with radio 114 image here : ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Universal/Technical/XDA Exec ERROR 114/
Your card cannot be bigger than 128 MB and has to formatted FAT32
How to create file on SD card - You have to use ntrw.exe ( see sample ->:
( drive) :\>ntrw.exe write xxx.img (card):
You can find ntrw.exe : ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Tools/NTRW_2.0/ntrw.exe
Insert card to Universal .Put Universal into BL mode .
If you will see : "sections=1 not allow update" it means that you have CIDlocked Universal so procedure cannot be done this way.
Other solutions can be done by JTAG pinouts - but I don't know how.

Is there any way we can do a cid unlock and then try loading the radio rom for these handsets......

This doesn't seem to do anything ... tried numerous time yet to no avail..

good, well done

Thanks. Been looking for something like this.

Thanks ! Cause lot of french member ask me for that !

Does anyone know how to do this with the start up image on the o2 version of copilot live 7 you get with the orbit 2?

Ok, ignore my last question i figured it out.
The problem i have now is with the rom update utility, everything is fine until the ppc screen says Loading..., at this point the activesync connection ends and i get an error 260 saying the software cannot connect to the pda

Remove MicroSD from slot and everything will work.
The_Steph

Hello.
It's a pretty cool thing, thanks !
Just a question : I'm using stock SFR french ROM, do i need to use HardSPL ?
Thanks again.

works great, does anyone know how to change the second splash image?

Click to expand...

easy, just rename any gif to "animated.gif" and copy to \windows

that dosent apper to work on my orbit 2, i still get the green windows mobile screen

The second splash screen (animated HTC logo) is the windows\animated.gif file. To disable it, you have to change your registry settings :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"Enabled"=dword:00000000
The third one (Windows mobile) is Windows\welcomehead.96.png.
The_Steph

Right, im using an orbit 2, when i startup i used to get:
1. O2 Splash Screen
2. Windows Mobile Splash Screen (Green one)
3. Today Screen
I did the method in the first post to get:
1. Custom Splash Screen
2. Windows Mobile Splash Screen (Green one)
3. Today Screen
then i tried the method you posted to try to change 2. but i still get what is above

chris 2403,
My mistake, Windows Mobile Splash Screen is not welcomehead.96.bmp as stated in my ealier post (corrected since to avoid other user mistakes) but welcomehead.96.png.
Sorry for that.
The_Steph

Thanks, that worked great!
This is what i use now

Splash
I'm not able to rename or overwrite animated.gif and welcomehead.96.png. I try with Total commander and also try to change attributes (system and read only unchecked) but I can't! Any suggestions!?
Ciao

message with HTC ROM TOOL
I am using Vista and I have a message witch HTC ROM TOOL when I load splash_screen.nb (150ko) that I have created with nb_image_converter.exe
"Size of this file is less than default. Do you want to assign this file?"
when I press "YES", I have a new message :
"Do you want to pad this file with trailing 0x00's to achieve default size?"
I press "YES" and I click on BUILD and a message indicate me that All seems to be OK
When I flash my HTC Polaris, the splash screen is white and my picture is not loaded.
Where is the mistake?

make sure size of the foto u using to create nb image.

u must save the new file as RUU_signed.nbh as this is what the flasher looks for
otherwise u probably are left with blank splash seen as white

The problem i have now is with the rom update utility, everything is fine until the ppc screen says Loading..., at this point the activesync connection ends and i get an error 246 saying pda not responding

IPL or SPL 3.08 failed formatting the partition RECOVERY

I am a great FAN of this section as I have flashed almost every WM6 or WM6.1 ROM into my charmer....
But the problem came the last month when I had a fialed Flashing of the ROM resulting in the hanging problem at the T-mobile Boot screen with IPL 3.08 and SPL 3.08!!!
As I have read almost every thread and discovered that a lot of others are facing the same problem wthout any satisfactory solution.....(Reason: on hard reset it says formatting failed!!!)
Infact the only story of recovery was from dorfdisko

But for me I could not get through this grim situation with the same result shown above error at 95%......
So I would like to request all the developers (especially dorfdisko the only lucky person coming out of this situation using the PROPHET ROM in someway!) to look into the matter systematically and develope some solution in the form of specially cooked ROM or something like this!!!
Thanks in anticipation on my behalh and others who are caught up in similar situation!!!

Have you tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471490 ?
You can also try to flash the latest German ROM. (I do that with the English one when something fails.)
That may only work with the NoID RUU from the link above. It can work because the IPL and SPL of a German ROM have got other extended code numbers also they are the same version. They will overwrite the old ones and maybe that works.
I can upload the nk.nbf later for you.

Yes please!
It would be an aweful kind of you!!!

Here is the needed German nk.nbf. Use only with NoID RUU!
http://rapidshare.com/files/217609597/nk.nbf
Hope this works for you.

Has my idea worked? We need feedback because maybe we can help much peolpe with this solution.
So please tell me what happend.

Sorry I was busy somewhere else so could not found time for testing this procedure!!!
Would tell you soon about the said matter!!!

Thanks for that
EDIT
I've seen that you opened a thread before and I replied there too. Not very nice to open a new one. And next time tell us that you opened a thread before. That will help us much.
Thanks
END OF EDIT

Sorry for that issue!!!
And as regards your ROM file it didnt work either.
As the phone hangs again on the splash screen and on hard resetting it says format failed as ususal!!!
Now what can be done?

You may can't flash the File with the NoID ruu because your device isn't CDI unlocked. I'll search and maybe tell you things later.

The file was flased to the end but then that was the result as I described above!
Anyway thanks for your painstaking!!!

Yes. It looks like flashed to the end. But the bootloader rejects everything and nothing will change. You can only flash with the original Utility with fitting code. Nothing else. Believe me it got never flashed.
And I've got an other idea:
You can format the Charmer over TTY. But I don't know about funktion in bootloader mode. And I would not recomend you to try it on your own. Maybe Vlodeck reads the thread. He should know more about it. Otherwise I can ask in Wizard forum for you.

OK I have a idea now. You can try with MTTY and I can tell you how.
First you need MTTY: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/mtty.exe
You need to have a full battery. (Otherwise you can power your phone with a AC adaptor with 3 4.5 or 5 volt. I can tell you the pin layout)
Put your device in bootloader mode (Press Camera while reseting).
Connect it to USB.
Start MTTY and choose USB.
Wait untill it is connected to the phone.
First type in task 32 and hit enter....Wait for feedback.
Then type task 28 and hit enter....Wait for feedback.
Now start a original ROM upgrade and let it run till the end.
Warning: Never restart your phone untill the Flashing is finished. Restarting the phone will kill your device completly.
If there are errors with the comands, for example Invalid comand please write me. I'll tell you what to do then.

i have the same problem with ipl & spl 3.08
this last solution doesn`t work.
do you have another idea?

What feedback do you get after you typed the comands?

this one:
32
Invalid command : 32
For a help screen, use command ? or h
Cmd>28
Invalid command : 28
For a help screen, use command ? or h

OK. That was clear. The comands won't work in Cmd> Mode. You need to get in USB> Mode. But I don't know how to do that so I can't do anything at the moment.

Command wrong, need >set 32< and format all or format EXTROM, but you need Gold Card created QMAT programm and worked WM Phone to create GoldCard.

[Q] MAGLDR113_DAF jumps from 0% to 100%

Hi, I'm been trying to get my HD2 to upgrade from WMB 6.5 to 7 for the past day or so, but I always get stuck in the step where when I use MAGLDR113 the progress bar will jump from 0% to 100% after a few seconds of starting. And then on reboot it will get stuck in the white background loading splash screen with the HTC logo staring back at me.
My red/green/blue screen reads:
PB8100 SS-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8B XC
CotullaHSPL
0x05 <---
0x10 <--- these numbers seems different to what people post out there...
My radio is 2.15.50.14
Been doing this over and over but nothing seems to work.

i supposed that u have successfully install the MAGLDR
Try boot your phone in to MAGLDR menu by
turn the phone off and HOLD the power button until the menu showed up.

have you tried to use HD2 NAND Toolkit? give the link below a try
it could be also that the zip File is corrupted

Do you get any error messages from RUU?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA

@thamlim : holding down POWER button doesn't work, still get stuck on HTC white bootscreen
@mengfei : I've re-downloaded the .zip several times, don't think it's corrupted but won't rule it out completely. I will give the NAND toolkit a try tonight.
@hengsheng120 : How can you tell if there were error messages? I am assuming no since there were nothing that looks like error displayed on screen (desktop & phone), and RUU hasn't generated any log files that I can see.

I meant Dft flasher. No USB init failed? Does it give a successful message?

Which one is the Dft flasher? The one for installing HSPL? No error with that one.
@mengfei : going through instructions in the page that you gave me, i'm still getting the same problem. If you search for the sentence "when the phone starts it will show you the magldr bootloader" in that page, that's the place where the phone boots into white background HTC logo (same one after Task29), holding down power button on startup still gives same result.

The window when you are flashing wp7, but nvm that...

Also yes, I just noticed most of this configuration doesn't seem to match an HD2's. you sure that's what it says exactly?
Have you been able to install android roms?
From that info you gave, the SS-BC means that you have different NAND chip made by samsung instead of hynix. It should say HX-BC for most HD2's.

Faulty NAND may be the reason:
AndrewSh said:
Important information concerning Leo flashing algorithm:
Leo is manufactured with 2 different NAND-Flash ROM chipset types. You can detect the type entering tri-color boot mode.
If you see
PB81120 SS-B3 in the first line - that means NAND-Flash ROM from Samsung - KBY00U00VM
If you have
PB1120 HX-B3 in the first line - that means NAND-Flash ROM from Hynix - h8BFS0WU0MCR
After one year usage Samsung chipset usually has a dozen of bad clusters. Hynix normally has none of them or just a couple.
So for devices with SS-B3 and Samsung chipset recommended flashing algorithm is the following:
1. Task29
2. Task32
For devices with HX-B(3/С) and Hynix chipset - Task28 is totally acceptable.
The chipset information is provided by haccker
HD2Owner, I suppose this info should be lifted up to first or second (reserved) post

See this thread for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=917807
If your screen really says PB8100 however, which, by google search is weirdly found in mostly chinese forum posts, I suspect your device may also not be supported, but i hope it's a typo.

May be u should try Task29 again , and then try install cLK instead of MAGDLR, and see is that work?
