BA Disconnects as Update Starts

Hi,
Apologies in advance if I'm covering old ground.
I'm trying to re-flash a WM6 rom after my previous attempt just left me with the 4 colour screen permanently and as the links to mtty1.42.rar seem to be broken at the moment I decided to re-flash with a different rom.
the problem is that even though I can get the unit into boot-loader mode and the update software appears to see the BA when it checks versions etc. as soon as I hit the upgrade button the BA screen blanks and I get Error 112: CE ROM UPDATE ERROR.
I've tried different roms, different usb ports and different versions of activesync all with the same result.
Any help on this would be great and hopefully I haven't 'bricked' the unit.
Cheers
Duncan

Do you have PH20A2 or PH20B device?
mtty utility can be found using search button

It's a PH20B.
I've now found mtty after a fair bit of searching on other forums..now to see if I can make some sense of it's commands.
A further update: it seems that I've managed to corrupt just the OS part of the ROM. I managed a radio update successfully which means all the USB connection is fine for updating. It just can't access the OS part of the ROM.
Is there anyway to manually format that area of ROM so I can in effect install over clean unit? Infortunately I can't make sense of the mtty commands and don't know what memory address and for how log I should perform the format.
Cheers Duncan

try reflashing

You should know how to use search - however here is the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=348030&highlight=mtty
(Is that hard to put "mtty" in the search field and set BA section only? )

Further update:
Now I don't even get the 4 colour screen. After soft and hard reset I get a dead device. I can put the device into bootloader mode (serial/usb) but as soon as the update software attempts to copy the rom across the screen blanks and I get the ROM Update Error.
Now my thought is to try and flash with the original rom for the device as I have another unit available but using the link from the BA wiki for dumping the ROM doesn't work. I have also tried searching for 'ROM Dump' within the BA section of the forum but there don't seem to be any definitive instructions for this, everyone just keeps asking why not use the wiki or search funtion....
I have used the wiki and the search funstion and I seem to be the first with this situation.
Soft Reset - Nothing
Hard Reset - Nothing
Bootloader - Able to flash the radio rom but as sson as i try to flash the OS rom the screen blanks and I get Error 112: CE ROM Update Error. When I take the device out of the cradle the screen comes back on with the Serial 2.xx screen and I'm back to square one.
I've tried to use the wiki to dump an exisiting working rom but the link on the wiki is broken. I have also searched the BA forum for these intructions but they're not covered as they're already in the wiki..... or not as the case is.
I appreciate you regular users get fed up with noobs coming on and expexting you to do all the work for them but so far I've spent 3 days searching both this site and others to try and resurect my device. I'm not dumb or lazy and would love to be able to do all this myself but without instructions I'm flying somewhat blind.
Any help would be great..... please??

[off topic]
no need for apologies...
we started once like you... some are far worse...
knowing one part and boasting with air on their heads...
since you managed to explain yourself on your first post.
knowing what to search (E.G. MTTY 1.42.rar)
you definitely searched the forum before you posted AND
you stated that the links are not working... that proves it.
we are the one who is sorry because some others think
that they are high and mighty, it sometimes blurs the opinion making.
i dont like opinionated people because i admit that am one too... sometimes...
but that doesnt mean i hate them...
[on-topic]
you never told us what happened when you tried the mtty procedure.
is your last post the result of your mtty experience?
please elaborate how did you end up with that... what did you do before you soft-reset and hard-reset?

SilverSamurai,
Thanks for the quick response.
After my last 'apparently' successful re-flash with Helmi's latest WM6 rom when I hard reset the device I had nothing but a blank black screen, no power LED or anything. Soft-reset was the same. I can reset into bootloader and the PC detects the device when I place it in the cradle. The first part of the update seems to work although it never detects the current OS installed, it always says upgrade from ' ' to 'ver 6.0.0' which is wierd because it always used to say the previous OS version. When I then hit next the progress bar shows on the PC but the BA screen immediately blanks and eventually the PC gives the ROM update error.
I have managed to re-flash the radio rom in this state which proved that I still have access tho the device from the PC.
Using mtty I can run through all the commands to recover from the 4 colour lines screen (even though I'm beyond that point).
USB>set 14 0
HTCST ÚÈÒHTCEUSB>task 28
DOC_format_HW+
DOCInfoTableinitHW+
Binary0:dwSize=80000
BINFS0:dwSize=0
FAT0:dwSize=1000000
FAT1:dwSize=2BA0000
All:dwSize=3C20000
USB>task 0
USB>
It's almost as if the last flash didn't complete and has left the area for the OS 'dirty' with what ever it did manage to flash. What I was hoping to try was to re-format the entire OS section of memory and then try to re-flash again. Using mtty it says you can format sections of memory by stating a start address and the length you want to format but I don't have clue what these should be.
I've tried flashing with WM6, WM5 and a compatible version of 2003 with the same result every time. I would like to dump a rom from another BA I have and try with that but as mentioned earlier the link for that is down at the moment.
I think that's about it. If you need any more info let me know.
Many thanks
Duncan.

since i dont want to experiment with my sole BA...
i tried to search for solution...
and with some of my computer instincts i came up with this suggestion...
try this command before "task 28"
"task 7 0" <-- this is the "Do flash ROM lock/unlock" command
"task 2a" <-- fix bad blocks on MFG bootloader and Storage
then try to reflash your BA.
my sources one | two
although it's not BA but i think mtty commands are generic.
it's worth a try.

SS,
Still no joy, it's exactly as it was before.
Just reading through some more posts for bootloader ant it seems at least one other person has the same problem - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345181&highlight=bootloader and no resolution posted for that either.
I think I may have got it beyond the point of return.
I've just tried to flash from the blank screen I end up with from the initial attempt and it still detects the device but fails in exactly the same way.

awww... im sorry to hear that.
but dont lose hope.
i'll try to read some more and search for solutions.
and i hope someone with the same problem as
yours that had their BA fixed comes to the foreground.

These steps are from my notes. Follow these steps. It worked for me last time i tried (3 months back)
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.

i think he did all of those already,
that's why i posted this in response to his mtty experience.
wouldnt hurt to try it again though.

A bit more info:
I tried the mtty solution again but still the same result.
I finally managed to find the instructions for dumping and exisiting rom to SD card and pulled one from a working unit. I put the card into the faulty BA and booted into bootloader. Pressed 'Power Button' to flash from card and it appeared it was going to work........ until it got to 12% then it failed with the message 'Download Fail'. So still no better off.
What I'm going to try now as it seems anything is worth a try is use the address ranges used to dump the rom to try and format all 3 sections. See if that will give me a clean base to try and re-flash from the sd card. My only worry is if it will format the section of ROM used to store the bootloader info.
I'll post my results shortly.

Now I need to know how to get the bootloader password to enable me to use the 'erase' command through mtty.
The hunt coninues....

Yet more developments.
As the update from SD failed I thought I'd see if it was possible to dump the current contents of the rom to SD using the following
“d2s 80000000 02000000“
“d2s 60000000 00300000 sd a“
“d2s 70000000 01080000 sd a“
The first 2 commands completed fine and checksum was OK. On the 3r command 'd2s 70000000 01080000 sd a' it errored with the following result
USB>d2s 70000000 01080000 sd a
SD:Waiting for card insert.........

Now my guess is the Doc_Read_Fail bits are the corrupt part of the rom. If I can find a way to repair these I could then try re-flashing the rom.

what was "task 2a"'s result?
i think that's the chkdsk option of mtty.
we're dissecting the innards of the bootloader.
little by little as we go along the way...
im learning something, i hope you can find the fix for your problem.

SilverSamurai,
Thanks for the help you gave but the unit has finally had enough and totally locked. No power or anything no matter how I try to reset it. I've tried charging for hours, discharging for hours, left the battery out for hours but to no avail. It seemed to take exception to me dumping the rom contents to the SD card. Maybe there was a hardware problem ?? Not sure.
I'll have to see if I can wangle another unit from the company I work for as we're currently selling a bunch that were purchased for a failed IT project on ebay.

it was sad to hear/read that.
anyways. at least we tried to revive it. but dont throw it away.
maybe someday there will be ways how to ressurect your BA.
Happy Computing! err... Mobile Computing!

[Q] HTC Touch 3G Clone Upgrading Problem (T3232 K3) [SOLVED]

Hey guys,
first, im sorry for opening a new thread, but none of the other threads helped me.
I bought a HTC Touch 3G Clone in China:
ROM: 2.706.2
QUALCOMM 7225
528 Mhz
RAM: 192MB
NEXPERIA SY.SOL 5209
Windows 6.5 Chinese
HardSLP doesn't work. It cant get a connection to the phone, although ActiveSync has one.
Then i tried to upgrade with my 1gb sd-card. But none of the button-combinations of this forum work.
I tried some other comb. and found three of them:
green button + red button + power --> reset config
vol up + vol down + power --> calibration screen
vol up + red button + power --> a white screen with "downloading"-label
vol down + red button + power --> a green/white screen saying: Checking valid image file
I think the last one is important to install a new rom. After 10 seconds it says:
Step 3 error while updating
Card operate: read retry timeout
Then i tried several rom-versions posted here. Nothing happens.
I just want an english operating system...
I really hope someone can help me. Its driving me crazy...
Thank you for your help.

Buddy close this thread & go 2 Touch 3G General -where u have posted ur thread- & read other threads, many can help.
HSPL does not work 4 cloams!! & also u can't use those custom ROMs on cloam!
check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=580367&page=3 but make the "hxxp" correct!
Also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657212 links.
Search more, u will find stuff. If u follow the General forum related 2 cloams (clones) u will get more! U shall use a ROM working 4 cloam. Mine is T3238+, I'll try 2 help as far as my knowledge lets me!

Thank you for your help.
Sure, I can post my problem there. But I already read them and it didnt help. I tried both of the ROM-files. I get the same error:
Step 3 error while updating
Card operate: read retry timeout
I have a 1GB sd-card, formated in standart windows-fat-format.
I think there must be another button-combination for the update mode.
But like i said none of the combinations mentioned in the board work, and there are plenty of them...
In your second link I have seen:
3) Boot into TF Update Mode by holding the Green + Confirm + Red + Power Button
I tried it, nothing happens (if the confirm button ist the round big one in the middle)... What should I do?

Hi again,
Yes, confirm = big button; only use the ROMs 4 cloam phones not those 4 real 1s.
Seems that ur phone starts reading the file but stops in the middle, this means u have gone 2 update mode, only it can't continue; try another SD card.
-- Mine is Touch 3G T3238+. By far NO key comb. has worked 4 me. Seems that these cloams don't have a booter like other 1s.
I turned off my phone -> connected it 2 PC w/ WMDC -> Vol. down + green + power => a menu screen appeared!! w/ options like "update OS", "update logo" & ...
C if this works 4 u, though "update OS" did not work on my phone but mine has sum other problems 2, so u give it a try.
-- Turn ur phone off, insert the SD & just turn it on normally, this shall start reading SD.
Don't make the card as FAT 32 (though not possible!), only FAT or FAT 16.
Don't put the ROM in a folder on SD, let it be on the root directory.
-- Once open SD w/ ur phone -as u open e.g. "My document" - & c what message it shows? Does it even read the card??

Thank you very much for your help. I finally made it.
The trick ist to use a ROM with a .bin-format and rename it to "k3img.bin"
The update mode doesnt accept other names.
I flashed my phone to windows mobile 6.1 eng. version.
Now i have a bunch of other problems. Bad key mapping, no camera... and the biggest problem: the phone doesnt find any storage cards.
Under Settings-System-Memory it says: "Total storage card memory: Not installed".
What can i do? I need that extra storage.... And now i cant get into the update mode because windows deleted the old button map. Tried any combination, doesnt work.
Please help.

Hi again,
Well, I am a noob myself!! unfamiliar w/ these phones!! but I think keys problem is bcoz of the ROM; though it is installed, but it's not the proper 1!
Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=662170&highlight=QUALCOMM seems that this "first aid" has helped!!
Trying another ROM, BUT now that u can't use SD ......!! also the PC does not run .bin or .upr files!! Mayb if u change the file 2 .exe, it gets installed (of course after sync.!)
2 get 2 update mode, c if connecting 2 PC (my prev. post) does any good!!
I don't know any way; In sum days I shall go 2 the phone service center 4 my phone; I'll ask 2 c if they knew any way & [/I]if if they let me know about it[/I]!!

[Q] SD is not recognized. Can´t Call, Can´t connect via USB.

I played around and installed some customs roms when this happened.
installed Legend_Lespresso_v1.0_A2SD. wasn´t happy about so I reinstalled azure-1.0.1
and then this happened.
SD is not recognized.
Can´t Call,
Can´t connect via USB.
No connection via Win 7.
I get the debug icon sometimes when connecting to XP.
But when trying let´s say recovery-windows.bat it can´t connect.
Is there something I can do in the built in terminal in the ROM?

Anyone?
Don´t know what to do =(

Have you tried a complete Wipe from the recovery menu?
What about formatting the SD card?

yes I wiped it several times.
And have tried to format the card aswell.
But I formated this in windows -> Fat32
Maybe I should try something else?

dont know about the other problems but about the calls i had same problems:
i installed different roms for a whole day and couldnt get signal then i discovered that the antenna of the legend is placed on the cover of the battery so if its not on,it wont work

Ah ok,
But the thing is that I don´t even have to put in my SIM-lock nr.
That´s why I think that SIM card isn´t recognized either.

I really don´t know what to do

I just bought my Legend one month back, I contacted the official HTC suppliers here, thats a copy of the email!
so they say its in november! with full arabic support, but I believe it will be a little earlier for the international version which (most likely) wont contain arabic within it!
Heres the email:

What´s this got to do with my problem?

I have this same problem like BAWS
On beginging everythink goes fine, I successfull root my Legend and install custom ROM. Problems begin when i change rom for Dark Azure CyanogenMod 6.0.0.
First install of ROM gets only errors of every app that be launch. I wipe phone and install it again.
ROM install successfull but there be no Market on it, I can't sync with Gmail, and the worse on SD card be info there is unavalible. So i format card, change it to gold card and there still this same info. So i change SD card for another, but this not help.
So I try back to my old rom, when i plug phone to PC and go to recovery mode, there be info that be install new devices. That devices be Unknown Devices and be unsuccessfully install.
I try install HTC Legend on recovery mode on 2 PC and 3 Nootebooks and everyone see only Unknown Devices (i have install HTC Sync 3.0.5422)
I try do install RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.5_R_Radio_47.26.35.04_7.05.35.26L_release_126592_signed.exe but my HTC Legend is not visible by the installer.
When i select option to USB Debugging is this same Win7(x64) is looking for drivers and finaly install it as Unknown Devices
Someone know how repair that ??

Bonethugs thx for advice I try it and it works my HTC Legend is back to normal life
For Baws that is right that you need to see the sdcard, but did you see this in the usb-unbrick post
Also, SD card functionality has to work. For this, do 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' in fastboot mode.

when you go to bootloader on Legend and then run command line in Windows 7 use android sdk go to tool folder and type this
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
then your HTC Legend will see and recognized SD card

Oh my BAD!!
I wasn´t in fastboot mode!
GAHH finally.

First of all you need to root your phone. Take a look in this thread and follow section 1.5. Instead of the recovery file suggested by the instruction, use the one from this thread. (Otherwise you won't be able to flash Gingerbread)
You have now rooted your phone and flashed a custom recovery program. Now you'r ready to choose a rom. I would suggest nFinityGB from arco. Just download the rom you like and put it on your SD card. Reboot your phone into recovery and DO A FULL BACKUP. Do a wipe/factory reset and flash the new rom (flash zip from sd card or something like that). Reboot the phone and have PATIENCE, the first start can take up to 5 to 10 minutes. Enjoy!
If you run in to any trouble, search! I can almost guarantee that your problem is not entirely new or unique, if it is; feel free to ask for help

yh nfinity gb is best man

guys i try a rooting way but hmmmmm give me error with rootTattoo app

There are development tools using here and all the thread - tutorial mentioned above are very good.
Did you download the android-sdk to get adb? If yes, you should go with the terminal in the platform-tools folder to launch adb.

im really get so sad ....... i was think i can found fun with my tattoo
C:\androidsdk\tools>adb devices
'adb' is not recognized as an in

Use Universal Androot and ROM Manager much easier without PC
Sent from my HTC click using XDA Premium App

I have only encountered the "no space left" error once and that was when I missed a step in the manual rooting process. I didn't have any problem with the automated rooting tool mentioned in the FAQ and no problems at all when I did the manual rooting following each and every step carefully.
Sorry but I have know idea what causes the problem if you are following the instructions.

Andy, I've been reading about Androot and ROM Manager since you posted.
I have the standard 1.6 version from HTC, using Androot and ROM Manager I can use any of the rom's posted here in xda or do I need something else?
Did you rooted and flashed your tattoo this way?
Thanks

[Q] Using fastboot.

So I am not quite sure what exactly fastboot is supposed to do. I know you can flash recoveries, bootloaders, etc with it but that is about it for my understanding.
I tried to get into fastboot (following instructions here on the forum) mode earlier today and while the tablet gives me the fastboot message in the upper left, windows says that fastboot failed. Is there a folder I am supposed to be running cmd prompt from?
Sorry, still new to this stuff and my understanding of some of these tools is limited at best.

Running adb from its native folder is not an issue.....is fastboot the same way having to run cmd from folder that a file is located?
I prefer not to mess stuff that I do not fully comprehend (not that I fully comprehend ANY of this) but some of it makes more sense once you are into it rather than reading someone elses interpretation.

yeh just a group of extended adb commands that allow you to do some pretty awesome stuff - like really, really bricking your tab for instance, lol. I'm unsure as to whether all the fastboot commands are available to us - i havent had enough spare time to devote to heavy duty reading in the Dev Forums!!!! You can flash everything in here so its like a supercharger;;;;Sort of like going from timmydeans EUU root to Civ's nvflash unlocking bootloaders thing, if you know what i mean.......
But heres some reading, most of it tutorial step by step stuff, mostly for other devices which may not apply to our tab but definitely apply to fastboot. AS you know, there is alot of info in our own dev forum but its hard to find a flow as the devs actually speak a different language to us!!!! So the tutorials are quite good in that respect as they use noob-ite speak
the backup and restore tute is a goody, couldnt get it going on v3 so looking forward to giving it a go on v4 (when i can find a quiet 30 mins or so, that is)
anyways happy reading be interested in your thoughts and keep us posted about what you get around to trying

So I located Fastboot in D:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools\Fastboot.exe
But putting tablet into fastboot mode yields the driver installer to report that "Device driver software was not succesfully installed".......Fastboot X Failed....is this normal? Will it run when I use cmd prompt from D:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools?
I guess a little linux knowledge would go a long way.....too bad I can't get a grasp on that either.
Thanks for the links.....hopefully I can find time to give a read.

Set up adb/fastboot for noob-ites 101

weird??? i kicked straight in to bl, fastboot drivers installed, never saw red x
u mean u arent cmd from platform tools???
in the cpuid guide I suggested extracting the just_adb.zip into C:\ so setting
up the env. var. would be easier I have been meaning to post the steps for
doing that, guess theres no time like the present
Set adb as Environment Variable or call adb direct from command prompt
............ first, copy the path to your install - in your case:
............ "Path to adb" = D:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
1. Click on the Start menu
2. Right click on Computer
3. Click on Advanced system settings
4. Click on the Environment Variables button
5. Look for Path in the System Variables section. Double click on it
6. Go to the end of the Variable value box and put in a semicolon ;
7. Now paste your "Path to adb" after the ;
8. it should look like this in your case ;D:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
9. Now test it out - start - run/search - cmd - in cmd window type: adb devices
10. If you've followed the steps you will see your device ID - voila!!!!
as you can see this makes trouble shooting so dam easy -
if you cant get a device id do not go any further in what u r doing
cos it aint gonna work....period!!!!! also since ICS has screwed
with getting our cpuid like this, for our purpose here, it is only important
that a device id is shown - not how right or wrong it is.....clear????
so getting back to it, check fastboot*.exe in same folder as adb.exe -
it came like this in my own setup not sure about the asdk setup -
remember too fastboot only has a few commands and i still havent
got round to trying them all out yet....
to anyone following this, I cannot say enough how dangerous this can be
please, please, please take a moment to read thru just one of the links i
posted earlier - they are tutorials and if you see the dev thread regarding
v4 unlock...you will not only learn something amazing but begin to
appreciate and respect the work done by these devs who laid the groundwork
that enabled civato and blakthund3r to produce what they have with the
unlocked bootloader - without this groundwork we would still be waiting
for a way to get full root access and cwm, custom roms, themes and mods......

Thanks for that
Seems my Windows skillz need brushing up on again too....LOL

sweet m8 -
yeh whoever thought windoze would actually be useful!!!!
which i guess is freakn handy as having to go linux would spin me out....
what can i say??? I'm a child of windoze had no choice, forced-addiction
before i was born, lol - breaking the habit, but always go back, goddamit

OK....I get the adb ok.
But when I put tab into FB i get the driver error (see attachment). I suppose that I should not be getting this?
Trying just "fastboot reboot" (not wanting to go any farther until I get a grasp...HAHA) I get "waiting for device"

Ive updated the cpuid guide u my wanna take 5 min timeout to read it, the answers r all in there
I don't use full sdk there's a link to mini sdk zip in that post just has ad and fast boot
I've never had to use google drivers
Just plugged my tab in and its just 'worked'
DL Acer drivers if u haven't already . These are the most important ones to have installed right.
Disconnect and reboot everything
Run Acer setup.exe
Plug USB in
Go into fast boot, win doze will want to install f/b drivers let win doze do it, but if they fail, then run again and choose let me install, blah, blah, blah
What OS u got? Vista/win 7 don't normally have any probs

Acer drivers have been installed and all relevant sdk packages installed and up to date AFAIK. (USB_Acer_1.06.1500_A30HA31H_A.zip)
Had no issues installing ICS Bootloader V.3 manually through APX (no auto script) via instructions so I know I can at least do that well.....LOL
Might have to try reinstalling USB drivers and see if that helps.
Thanks
EDIT: Reinstalled USB Drivers now I can't get adb working....F#@K!!!!!!!!!
EDIT II: Re-Re-Installed Drviers and ADB working again...yay...LOL
EDIT III: Used A500_Manager.exe, clicked on "Enter Fastboot" and windows installed and recognized drivers......DBL YAY!!!!
C:\Users\username>fastboot reboot
rebooting...
finished. total time: 0.165s
Now.......to Brick this puppy.....
Thanx for your help dibb_nz....looks like all I needed in the first place was a driver reinstall...HAHA.

Hek m8 for a second or two there, I was feeling ya pain, lol
Oh but the elation when it finally happens!!!!!
I dunno why those drivers act out like that, but it always the same....
Fail, reinstall, fail, reinstall u can understand why peeps get frustrated
Glad u got it m8
