Guys, I have a P3300 that has a non-functioning USB connector. Charging works fine, but it will not sync over USB at all. The device is not detected at all. Even in the bootloader screen, when the USB cable is plugged in, it DOES NOT say "USB" in the bottom corner. Basically, the data functionality of the USB port is fried.
I had used USPL to flash a cooked ROM onto the device, and when the USB port worked, it all went fine. Now, with the USB port not working, I can only flash a stock ROM onto the phone using the memory card method. If I try to flash anything other than the stock ROM, it says "certificate invalid" and won't do it.
I read somewhere that there might be a method of doing the CID unlock by using the memory card, since the phone will not communicate with the computer via USB to use USPL the normal way. Can someone instruct me on how to do that? I have the USPL files on my computer, and simply renaming the .nbh file in order to try to use the memory card method won't work.
Can someone help me figure out how to use USPL or otherwise CID unlock the phone over some method other than USB to the computer? Thanks,
Well you can use activesync over BT, right? That might just do teh trick + SD card flash after it reboots to bootloader.
I might be wrong, it's just a thought
I tried that, but the USPL loader kills Activesync right at the start. So once the phone soft-reboots into the white screen and AS is killed, there is no more BT connection. So the USPL loader fails with an error of not being able to connect.
Can anyone else help?
I faced the same problem. White screen. I removed SIM and SDCARD. So I can flash normally.
Wiki: Artemis SD Card Flashing
Try reading the Wiki on Artemis SD Card Flashing
Those having questions on flashing (i.e. updating) their HTC Artemis could try following these steps 1) Backup e.g. PIM Backup 2) disable standby and hibernation then remove SIM & SDHC cards 3) if necessary then cid unlock 4) recommend hard reset or update to the latest official build 5) if necessary Update SPL to latest 1.11.cmon 6) flash new rom then hard reset 7) put in SIM & SDHC cards and enjoy the result of the hard work by the developer

hello. I exactly have the same problem like the thread poster. my mini usb only charges and cant connect data to any pc. its probably broken as common with using the O2 artemis on a car phone charger and starting the car while the phone is still sitted and charging.
MY QUESTION: does "Artemis SD Card Flashing" doesnt require the USPL? since its CID locked?

Before anyone ask's I have read all the posts regarding installing the Hard SPL but still have the same problem.
When I connect through Vista 32 via WMDC it recognizes my device fine, I then follow the steps in the tutorials but as soon as I press the button to update the ROM image it goes into the 3 colour screen and then into the updating ROM progress bar were it sits at 0% for ever.
My WMDC has disconnected at this stage and then I get a screen saying communication error which is obvious as WMDC has disconnected.
Is this a WMDC issue/ Vista or am I missing something
I then have to soft reset and it just re boots into my standard ROM.
Any advice woiuld be greatly appreciated
hello
1) connect your polaris to PC
2) run update utility
3) when you see 3 color screen unplug USB and replug it immediately
4) your SPL flash may start
5) when flash end correctely your polaris reboot
6) Flash any ROM you want
Thanks for the quick reply.
Tried doing exactly as you have stated.
Unplug and reconnect in the 3 colour bar screen, after which it goes into the updating screen and sits at 0% for ages until communication error comes up.
My WMDC has disconnected and does not reconnect.
I'm at my wits end!!
Do it from MicroSD, before format it in FAT 32, after rename the file .nbh in POLAIMG.nbh e copy in your microSD, put microSD in Polaris e put it in bootloader ( photo + softreset ) you will see something like IPL, bootloader, SPLASH1, SPLASH2, gsm & OS, press POWER button and wait, it might be long,
never put off microSD, when it finishes soft reset, in the same way you can flash any ROM, always format microSD before.

I think hard-spl can not be installed with sdcard method!
Why not ??? With Trinity you can do it.
cheers guy's for the feedback ,but not sure about the SD method unless someone can confirm it works for Orbit 2/ Cruise.
Somebody out there must have had the same issue as me regards this....what did you do to resolve.

But this is not Trinity...Try it...
I know You can flash polaris if you use jumpspl (this is used by hard-spl flash) or hard-spl (this is used by os and radio flash).
But if you have original spl on you pda, and you want to flash with sd card, you will not use nor jumpspl neither hard-spl.

hi there.
try to hard spl with your sd card not in the device.
go in to bootloader mode (BL mode - by pressing down the Camera button, then using the stylus, press and hold the RESET button at the bottom of the phone and release when tricolor screen appears),
now connect the device to your pc (it should show usb in the white part)
flash what you may... hard spl first, oli's recomended by me.
ItayE,
Did you try the hard-spl flash with sd method? Does it work?
I didn't read it was Vista compliant so I ran it from a windows XP SP2 machine with Active Sync 4.5.
I did mine by taking out the SIM card and the SD Card then resettting and running the HardSPL.
HTH
Leon
Cheers for the advice guys I have managed to do it.
I used the Hard-SPL-V2 first which worked fine then I flashed to one of A.Serg roms, very nice and quick it is too.
However my reception bars are down to 2 from 4 that I previously had, although the reception seems ok.
Sim: O2 UK
Rom: 1.52.ASerg.4 WWE
The radio version I have is: 1.58.25.14
Now this is were I am confused.
Can I flash the radio Rom without affecting the o/s Rom, I have downloaded a couple of radio rom versions but not sure if you do it the same way as I am scared of over writing something.
Also could anybody advise if they are in UK on O2 which version gives best reception.
Any further advice much appreciated.
Hi,
I'm kind of new around here.
My problem is as follows:
- TyTN running PaysRom for about 9 months
- Started to get very sluggish
- Unable to get signal
When i booted my HTC the 'R' and 'G' that appear on screen and used to have values in front of it now display 'none'.
So, I connected it to my PC, 'activesynced' it and tryed to install a new ROM, hoping it would solve the problem.
But the new ROM wasn't installed sucessfully and now all I got is a brick.
I can't even connect it to ActiveSync since it's not recognized.
Is there any solution to my problem?
TIA,
hype
Can you get to the Bootloader?
Yes..
By pressing the Ok+Power+Reset on the bottom button, I see the 'RGB'+white thingie, that I believe is the bootloader..
What SPL do you have? Is it Hard SPL V7(2.10)?
If it is, use the sd card method to install a new ROM.
remember to backup your card 1st.
1. Format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32. Copy .nbh file of the ROM you want onto it and rename to hermimg.nbh .
2. Insert card into Hermes and reset into bootloader.
3. If all things have been done right, follow the prompts....
If the radio ROM has died, I'd suggest trying to flash the Shipped Stock ROM 1st and see if that actually fixes the problem with the blank values on R & G. WM06 upgrade of shipped carrier ROM should also work.
Cheers...
Tks for your response.
I tryed the SD Card method already, with no sucess.
The red stripe shows as follows:
Code:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
Everytime I tryed on another ROM I always perfomed it using SafeSPL.
Since I don't have 2.1, what can I do?
Tks for all ur help.
What happens when you try and flash a ROM over?
Do you get any kind of error?
You need to find the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. WM06 upgrade should be OK as the CID should match.
Put Hermes into bootloader and connect to PC after unticking "Allow USB Connections" in Activesyncs settings on the PC.
Run the RUU_Wrapper.exe file of the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. ven though activesync won't etect it, the flash file should. Follow the prompts.
Good luck as this seems to be the only way to fix this.
Good Luck...
You might be able to flash a Stock WM5 ROM using the SD Card method. Worked for me when I had SPL 2.03. In fact that's the only ROM it would let me flash over when mine bricked.
I was attempting to unlock the GPS on my XV6900 after installing the official Verizon WM 6.1 update, following the instructions on the PPC Haven wiki here: http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS.
I got through the unlocking with 0.40 coke and was flashing 'Flash Sprint ROM RUU_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_1.12.651.1_2.13.00_SPC_NV133_Ship'.
At 13% completete the usb cable was disconnected. I'm now stuck on the rainbow screen with the following info displayed:
VOGU100
SPL-0.36.0000
CPLD-3
'RUUNBH' is displayed in the upper right hand corner.
I tried to reflash the sprint ROM and unlocking with 0.40 coke again without any success. My laptop does not recognize the device when connected via usb, so active sync is also not working.
So this is my last hope. Is there anyone out there who can help out a noob, or did I damage my phone beyond repair?
Thanks in advance for your help. I did a search before posting, but didn't come across the answer. Sorry if I missed it
Anyone? Is it bricked?
you could try this out, if you have a microSD (non HD, wich mean, 2go or less)
1. Download NSFAN's latest Sprint WM6.1 Rom and extract to desktop
2. Rename ROMFILE.nbh to voguimg.nbh
3. Copy voguimg.nbh to MicroSD card that has been formatted to FAT32
4. Insert MicroSD card in phone, and enter bootloader via holding down the Power/Camera/Reset buttons all together.
5. Flash ROM
6. Hard Reset Phone
Good luck!
try the sprint rom with the RUU, even tho it says you need an active sync connection as long as the phone says USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen you can start the update
same happened to me when updating the official verizon 6.1, i took the battery out for like 20 mins and then retried and worked.
Hi
Have been flashing roms all the time without issue.
I've tried to flash my mobile and get to HSPL boot screen but it doesn't recognise the leoimg.nbh no matter which rom i use
It says 'loading...' on a grey screen then goes to the red/green/blue screen and has 'serial' at the bottom.
i've tried upgrading hspl to 1.66 and also mtty format, oth worked fine, I now just can't flash any rom to the phone
Can anyone advise how I could sort this? could send paypal for your time if you can help me sort it
Cheers
ok
format again microsd to fat32,microsd not microsdhc,
charge your battery,must bt shure your rom its ok not corupted
Hi
Have tried all of this but still no joy at all.
Does anyone else have a suggestion or is there another process that can be used for flashing if a direct flash from memory card doesn't work but the phone is formatted?
Thanks in Advance
Adam
In case anyone has a similar problem:
I installed drivers for phone in bootloader USB mode from the mtty thread.
Set the phone to bootloader and plugged in usb and was able to flash from PC without having to be in winmo
I still can't flash from card but as this way works, it's not an issue.
Cheers
Hi guys!!
Is there any way to full format htc hd device without using task29?
Two weeks ago I flashed ROM via SD card, and since then ActiveSync doesn't work and I can't establish connection with my HTC HD and computer.
Now I can flash ROM only through an SD card. When I get into Bootloader mode does not recognize USB, but remains on the Serial....
Hard reset does not help because it only erase contacts, emails and other crap. I need something to wipe the device.
Any possible ideas??!!! Please....
didnt you by any chance disable USB connection in your activesync settings?
check that, maybe that prevents you from connecting...
if that's not the case, try updating your drivers...
if that fails, then AFAIK Task29 is the only way to format your device...
I tried to change everything in USB2PC and it didn't work. I took the device to servis and the repairman told me that he doesn't know what is the problem. He thought that maybe some port is broken or something like that and will replace it but none of that. Everything in device works fine. That he told me.
I think I made a mistake. When I flashed ROM via SD it all went great but in the end (after message: update complete 100%) I didn't make a soft reset. Instead I pulled the battery out to re-started device. Could it be the reason?!?!
So this AFAIK task29... what does it mean?!?!
how can i do this?! can you be more specific, some steps or something... please
and thank you for reply
oh yes, and i forgot to mention, when I connect device to PC it start to chargining battery normaly so can't be problem with USB cable as well
be sure to check your activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center settings...click the settings for mobile device or similiar and make sure Allow USB connection is checked...
AFAIK means "as far as I know"..
Task29 is a process with which you can completely erase your system partition...this little process solves a lots of issues..
Let me help you out.
First of all, connect your phone via USB to computer in bootloader.
Run USPL
Download the attached package - it is Task29 with Blackstone Radio 1.17
Extract archives and run Task29.exe
Follow the instructions - it is the same as flashing process
After task29 your phone will reboot but wont boot because there is no OS.
Take out battery and get into bootloader again.
Connect to PC via USB, run USPL and flash your favorite ROM.
I recommend Topix or Duttys.
Let me know if this worked out for you.
PS: Sorry that there are so many archives but I could not get it to smaller size
PS: Also do not forget to backup the data!!! this erases completely everything...

OR You can try to flash a Stock ROM from SD ... probably works like Task29
Try using MTTY. Check firs for bad blocks. There is a command that will format the device.
Check Hermes WIKI, there are a lot of explanations about MTTY and how to use it. Also there are explanations about commands. Just be careful, you can destroy your device.
As far as I know mtty works on all win devices.
Cheers
I can't use anything...
The device can't recognize USB when I connect usb cable with it (it stays on SERIAL in bootloader), so I can't use task29, MTTY or similar applications or even flash new rom with RUU.
I think there is a malfunction on motherboard.
I tried to flash a stock rom with stock SPL 1.14 and this what happened:
It stays in bootloader mode with this error report
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.14.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again (in green field)
I tried to flash stock rom again and I get error code 00028002.
Stock ROM can't be flashed through SD card so now I can't use my guarantee......
so what do you do next to fix ..sorry my ingles
sollution!!
delete your previous connections in activesync, and then you need to HARDSPL your device, and after that you will be able to install romms from your sd card
