My XDA stopped responding HELP PLZ!!!!!

I tried to upgrade my XDA from version 3.something to 4..05 burned at http--kitchen.romanweb.com-kitchen-index.php
I followed the steps on the install shield until i got the message on my display:
_____________________
Upgrading...
It will take about 5 minutes.
Warning: Do not remove USB/Serial connection or power adapter from the Pocket PC.
After that the connection was terminated by itself and the message above remained on the display. I tried soft reseting and the other reset too, but i still get the same message and i cannot do anything from now on.
Can somebody please HELP me to fix it.
Special Thanks in advance!
method ?
can you tell us which upgrade method you used ?
usb or bootloader ?
if you used usb try using the bootloader method ... you'll porbably succeed !
good luck :wink:
Decebal
i used the usb method.
can you explain me please what is the bootleader method and how to do it. i have done the hard reset a several times and the screen gets worse and worse and now it is only shoeing black lines
step by step:
1. first you need a SD reader/writer
2. using OSImageTool.exe write the nbf to your SD
3. reboot pressing the power button
4. it will automatically rewrite your flash
After this ... hopefully ... you're done !
is this SD reader/writer a memory card and if it is, how am i going to copy this file on it if the xda is not responding.
Or should i buy another device with which i should copy it.
thanks in advance!
you need a SD card for your XDA and a writer for it (you can borrow from someone with an appropiate digital photo camera)
then with the programs and ROMs available here you create something like a rom floppy and start your XDA keeping the power button down
then it will automatically reflash your ROM
It all worked great!
Thank you very much for the help!!!
I have the same issue here with My TMO xda and i tried the suggested steps but I am not able to get this working. I am not getting any power or response from my unit so its not getting to any stage where I can load a bootimage from the SD card. PLease help. Any suggestions would be helpful.
thanks a lot to everyone how helped me!!
it really worked that way with the SD card.
To anyone having this problem, search the forum for the correct steps you should do to boot from the SD card and you will be fine!

Revert to Tmobile Rom

Hi, im a bit of a Noob when it comes to this sort of thing, i followed the instructions carefully. And im still in dire straits.
When it comes to copying the rom back to the sd card, (its a 1gb) it wont put it back it comes with an error. Im going to spend all weekend on this to figure it out. My main outcome is that i get the tmobile connectivity back on. I want gprs back on it. So... Either, can anyone point me to a tmobile installer as ican do that no problems. Or can anyone point me to a Tmobile gprs installer. Ive looked on the FTP, but the names are not so apparently obvious. I may be missing something, as i said im a bit of a noob. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
Nick :?:
Maybe this helps a little:

Help with PW10B1

Hello all,
Yes I’m sure your sick of hearing this: I'm new to all this. I picked up a T-Mobile PW10B1. It has Wallaby bootloader V.15
Rom V3.14.40
Radio V 6.18
Not sure what other info would be of help.
I have downloaded a lot of the tools,(maybe to much). Cant seem to make it all work. When i try to use the XDA2 after following the
instrucks i cant get XPiss to see the USB device. Don’t know if I’m even in the right place. Any advise would be appreciated.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
easy, using wp7 cab sender, just download the dev storage unlock cab, send it, and when your phone boots up, click on storage unlock app let it run and u should be good to go untill next reboot.
send to what and how?
since I don't know what rom you use, I can only guess. If you have XBmod-YukiXDA Back to the Future, you could use the unlock cab, just like tecle2595 wrote. But since you don't seem to be familiar with cab sending, etc., my next guess would be that you're using either HD2O's or any other DFT-like ROM, which doesn't support cab sending. You can try the following: Flash Back To the Future ROM and perform the relevant steps, see here. If you have that ROM, you have to read a bit how it works here. Didn't try it myself, so I can't help you with that. Otherwise, try Killdisk, see here and/or Panasonic SD Card Formatter, see here or, easiest, look if you have one of the devices listed here.
