How to fix failure during upgrading ROM

I have a siemens sx56 with AT&T. I was trying to upgrade the ROM version to unlock it. Using XDA developer software and during this process, somehow the connection between the computer and the phone stopped (active Sync). Now the phone is not responding and the screen still displaying the upgrading process. I tried to reconnect but the Active sync does not recognize the devise. I read in this forum that you can solve this problem by using SD card with a good ROM version. Here is what I did. I copied the NK.nbf to the SD card using my computer SD read/write slot. I inserted the SD card in the phone and did the boot loader mode. What I got is "Wallaby boot loader v5.22 GSM OK" that set. Does the phone will automatically ask to press action to start flashing or I have to press a certain key. I tryed all the keys but they give me different tests that they work fine. So far I am not able to find the key that will install the the cooked rom. After that, when I tried to use the SD card in the computer, it did not recognize the card and ask me to format the SD card. I tried the fat and the fat 32 format and download NK.nb1 and/or NK.nbf and again I got the samething. Do I need to down load the ROM file using the XDAtool or just copying the file from the computer to sd directory will do it. I would really appreciate it if someone points out the best way of handling this problem (i.e. get the phone to work with the appropriate ROM and unlocking it) thanks.

Bro, you shouldn't change the Sd fat you erased what's written on it anyway your unit is still on the safe side and you can bring it to normal.
First of all downgrade your bootloader to 5.15 >>>
goto this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=3274

Hi,
I also have exactly the same problem with my Siemens SX56 as those of Seif's. My Wallaby's boot loader version is 5.22. Ramram said that the first thing to do is to downgrage bootloader. But I couldn't understand how to downgrade the bootloader because I do not have a copy of old bootloader. Should I use 'OSImageTools' or 'XDArit' to write backed up CE image to SD card?
Seif, how did you solve your problem?
Best Regards

You need XDArit to write the rom to your SD read the past post on how to copy rom to your SD which is the safest way of installing the rom into the device, by using XDAtools press on FIX BROKEN BOOTLOADER this will downgrade you bootloader to 5.15 don't forget to connect your unit to the cradle when you want to downgrade.
I recommend 1rst of all to make a quick search in threads to be totaly ready for this
this would help :

Good Luck now.

Update : How to fix failure during upgrading ROM
The problem was solved. Here is what I did. I copied the NK.nbf file to the SD card using the XDAtools. It seems that the XDAtools uses special format for the bootloader that well recognize the ROM file on the SD card. Rafia your bootloader (v5.22) is fine you do not need to downgrade it.
You should follow this procedure:
1. Install ActiveSync that comes with the device.
2. download XDAtools from this site and install it in your computer.
3. Cook the ROM ( or get it by extracting the zip file from the XDA developers special edition ROM.)
4. Use the XDAtools to copy the cooked NK.nbf file from your computer to the directory of the SD card
5. Insert the SD card in the dead device and go to the bootloader mode (soft reset while pressing power key). Make sure it has more than 80% battery before starting.
6. If it is still working and the bootloader ver. is older than 6.22, it will ask you to press action to start flasing.
7. Once finished, remove the SD card and hard reset, wait 60 sec and hard reset again.
Good Luck and special thanks to Biso for his help.

Thanks a MILLION for this info. I'm in the same boat, with bootloader 5.22. One question though, when I'm in bootloader mode, which option do I choose from the menu to transfer the ROM to my device from the SD card? Will there be something automatically coming up? Or will I use one of the options listed below:
1. CE ROM TO SD
2. BOOT TO SD
3. CE + BOOT TO SD
4. GSM ROM TO SD
5. CE + GSM TO SD
By the way, so I never do anything to ruin my device again, can someone please explain what each option does?? I really don't have a clue.

as you can read from the menu you type in all these options are to the SD card
and they are to backup i suppose
rom upgrading should start automatic when a sd card with valid rom is in the sdport
and you are in the bootloader
maybe it ask you i forget but it's not something you have to find browsing
the menu's

Thanks for answering my question. Now I simply need to find a really good ROM to use to load back onto my device. What I would like to do is end up with Windows Mobile 2003, but the device is locked at the moment.
Can someone recommend a ROM for me to load onto the device so that I can then unlock it and THEN upgrade to 2003? Or is there a 2003 ROM out there that will also unlock? Originally, I ended up in this predicament by upgrading to the 2003 upgrade from Rogers AT&T, but that locked the device on me. I then tried to use a cooked 2003 ROM, and that's where I am now, without a useable device.
Thanks for all replies!

First of all get the "Special Edition Rom" to your device Unlock it then cook any other Rom you prefer
Special Edition Rom at http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
Good luck

Thanks, Ramram. I'm sure I'll have more success this time, but it's just odd that I went from a 2002 ROM, which was unlocked, to the Rogers 2003 ROM, and the phone was locked after that.
I guess I should stay away from that Rogers ROM then?

Why to worry about the Rogers Rom you know now a way to unlock your phone.
I assume the Rogers rom is based like the At&t rom which it has the sound clipping bug , so I'd rather say that you could cook a T-mobile rom 4.01.16 WM2003 and try it it does not have the sound clipping bug..

Please help! HardSPL problems..

alright so I'm new to this, but I followed the instructions to hardspl, and got up to the point where i had 4.70yang as my spl, and was going to flash through SD. it wouldnt read the SD card, and i tried formatting it in FAT32, with the allocation unit size to 4096, and when that didnt work, i tried other variations. Then I figured I'd try flashing the other way, but couldnt do it because i couldnt get a sync with the computer. I didnt know whether to go into the actual canonyang ROM, but anyway I did, and if I connect the USB cable, nothing happens, no activesync. i tried the bootloader screen, no USB connection. every other alternative i saw, removing the hardspl, flashing otherways, etc etc i cant do without a USB connection. im not sure if i did anything wrong, im convinced i didnt. im hoping the solution is really simple, cause i cant get activesync to work.. im really frustrated, lol. if anyone could offer solutions, that would be amazing.

Please keep all non-development posts off the development forum.
As far as your problem goes:
Activesync won't connect per say in SPL mode but it should still let you flash. In SPL mode, there is no syncing so the icon never turns green but it still works just fine. As far as working with the SD card, the SD card cannot be a SDHC card. The SPL doesn't have a SDHC driver.
Try a smaller SD card (2GB's or less since they are usually non-SDHC) or flash through SPL even though activesync doesn't show as connected.

sorry about posting it in the wrong place. where should i have posted? and thank you for replying
and what IS the SPL mode? what screen should i be seeing? cause if i let it load then it just goes to the regular phone screen as if im on an actual OS, and sync doesnt work there. and yes im using a 2gb SD card, not SDHC.

Ok, make sure you followed these SD Flashing instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=581996
It should work. And also, please read up on the terms, and that will help you understand everything.
And what Ivan was referring to, about flashing without ActiveSync connected....put your phone into the bootloader, connect USB, wait one minute, and then attempt to flash. Tell me if you did EVERYTHING in the first paragraph's link first, though.

OK. I see what the problem is. You're in the OS but the OS is the stripped OS.
Hold down your camera button and then press the soft reset button. Then you'll be in SPL mode. From there you can flash anything you want.

hey thanks for the help ive flashed a ROM or two using flash center so thats working fine i got past that. but im still trying to flash through SD. it wont read my card still after formatting it to FAT32 and putting the HERAIMG.nbh file. i read on another post that the nbh version number could be a factor? how would i go about messing around with that?

As I mentioned: Is your SD card a SDHC card? If it is, it won't work. The NBH version is set by the cook and if it works with the flash center then it works with the SD card. Any ROM created for flashing through SD card is made with the correct numbers.

Hey Ivan
I'm new here and i've flashed several ROMS via RUU, so far the Glass one is my favorite.. Since y'all are on the topics of SD or SDHC cards, quick question...
I have a 2 gb SD card and i've been unsuccessful in flashing via SD. Formatted in fat32, named it HERAIMG.nhb and put it in the root, already been hardspled. Here's the question, in XP it shows as "Secure Digital Storage Device" I was wondering maybe the bootloader couldn't read the SD because it's the "secure" type not the regular one? Tried the quick format and full format to no success.
any input would be helpful

Secure Digital is what SD stands for. No matter what brand you use, that is what they are all called. There is no regular or secure SD card.

SD card not found ..

Hi
I just got my HD2 that my uncle got for me. I have been playing with the phone for about an hour and decided to watch the Transformers movie. To my surprise when I launch the icon, I get the message "media file not found". I checked to see if there was a microSD installed, and found that there was one.
Next I went to >settings > SD card & phone storage to see what was listed, and under the SD Card section is says "No SD card"!
Can someone please explain why this is so?
Also, I did try another sd card from another phone I have, and got the same "no sd card" listed.
I pray to god that this is not a fault with the phone, since it was picked up at a store today.
Thank you

What have you installed on your phone?

nothing, i was just setting up the phone.

i would take the cover off and press the red button its called a soft reset it wont erase anything its almost like restarting your computer if it still doesnt show up than i'd consider a hardreset which will erase data or reflashing a rom.
Are you In Euro or US?
Are You using a ROM?

I saw a yellowish like bottom next to the sd card slot and thought it might be a reset, and and pinned pressed it. Dont see any red button. The reset restarted the phone, but no luck.
I am in the US.
Not sure what you mean by "using a ROM".
Haven't done any sort of custom updates nor anything of that nature.

well its hard to tell the exact problem with your phone but i would suggest using Touch X Rom (there are others too i have had best experience with this one) it makes your phone run very nicely check out the thread on my signature and if your interested there is a guide in my signature as well for flashing your phone.

Is that going to void the warranty? are you sure this might fix the phone not recognizing an SD card.

dont quote me but i think if you flash back to the original rom you will be okay but its something you should research and look into i would think that it would fix it unless there is something physically wrong with your phone or sd card. Do you have any spare ones lying around you can try?
By the way the loss of sd card happend to me once when i installed TomTom that why i asked what you installed.

Spare of what? a phone or another sd card? I did try another sd card, but the phone didn't read it. FLashing the ROM seems complicated, I checked your guide and it looks like a whole bunch of things I got to do.

hmm well you can always try a hard reset, do you have all of your contacts synced or backed up?

is your phone connected to your computer now? in other threads people report they lose there sd card when its plugged into the computer

I just notice that my mac is reading and showing the SD card from the phone. I am able to see the files that are on the card and able to play the transformers movie on my iMac.
strange isn't!

Yes! you are correct, I disconnected the phone from the computer, and the sd card now shows on the phone.
Guess, problem solved.
About the flashing, you think I will be better performance from the phone?
thanks again for all your help.

good to hear im glad it worked, yeah i was totally impressed and glad i flashed to Touch X Rom Read the thread and you'll see that many agree! I'm not an expert by any means but i would do a search and see if you even can with a mac you might need to use a diff computer or use a diff guide

Cool, I will look into it ... cheers

Hey Jimmy,
Would any of those custom roms allow me to unlock the phone?

not quite sure try using the search thread tool and see if anyone else was able to accomplish this

This is from the phone. Does everything look ok to begin the ROM updates. You said that the HSPL2 is the first thing to flash. what's the next step after?
Info:
Software info from HTC HD2
- OS version : 5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
- Manila version: 2.5.20121412.1
- ROM version: 2.10.531.1 (82076) WWE
- ROM date: 02/22/10
- Radio version: 2.08.50.08_2
_ Protocol version: 15.34.50.07U

i assume ur using a pc to do this
Download hspl2 ->install
Download task 29-> flash (this erases all data)
Download ROM make sure its T-Mobile US Compatible the one on my signature is ->install
To install make sure your computer is properly configured to active sync on a pc then run setup on pc and it will prompt the flash on your phone.
Once hspl2 is flashed power the phone off hold the volume down and end key and if you get the tricolor screen you did it correct.

I runned the hspl2 setup from my laptop running windows xp pro and the program gave this error:
"CRITICAL ERROR
Flow: 00000001
Error code: 00000002
Description: USB connect failed!"
Any ideas here?

Help i cant remove hspl

Im sending my phone back to htc so I flashed back a standard rom. I thought this would remove hspl but it didnt now Im ****ting my pants. How do i get it off?

Did you flash stock rom via sd card? That is the only way that flashing a stock rom removes hspl. Otherwise the much simpler method is to rerun HSPL2 and select your original spl (ending in 0000) - assuming you can remember which spl you were on.

how do i flash the rom via sd?

Find nbh file of the rom you want, copy to root of sd card and rename it to LEOIMG.nbh, boot into bootloader and follow instructions. If it doesn't pick up the image, try reformatting sd card (preferably a small one ie 2gb) to FAT32 and retry.

Ive renamed the the file but bootloader does nothing, i only have a 16gb sd. I also put the whole rom on the card and selected it using file explorer and now the windows colour dots are just going around in a circle.

Did you copy just the .nbh file from the rom to your sd card and rename that and not the entire exe file? You also won't be able to flash via file explorer.
Seriously though if you can't flash via sd card (bigger sd cards don't alsways work - although my 16gb card does) just do the second and much easier option I gave you above, ie flash the rom via exe as you have done and then run HSPL2 and select your stock spl.

I cant do that cos now windows 7 wont install the bloody drivers lol. Im FUBAR'd

Be careful in your rom selection. This should ALWAYS be stressed when telling people how to do this. It's not simply a case of getting the one you want. You should always try to get the original rom your phone came with, or at a minimum one that the htc site recommends when you enter your country and phone serial. Flashing a bad rom via sd is pretty much the only way to brick your phone. This should not be forgotten or taken for granted.
That said, download the correct rom, rename to leoimg.nbh, stick it on the root of your sd card. Power off phone, insert sd card, hold volume down, press power.
(yeah I know clyde just typed the instructions, I just like them explained this way).

Have you double checked you card is Fat 32? I couldn't get a leoimg.nbh file recognised, until I found a similar post saying that it had to be Fat32. My card was in plain old fat...

Good point m8, I assumed that as he had already flashed the rom via exe that he had the right one. (I know that's a dangerous assumption given the level of some of the users on this site as some shouldn't be authorised to use anything more technical than a tv remote - no offence elgrego4 ). Noted and I will include that important statement in future advice given

I've just seen from your signatrure elgrego4 that your rom is listed as LEO70 (ie WP7). Did you reformat your sd card after using WP7?

Turn the phone off..Then turn it on while holding volume down. This will take you to the bootloader menu( rainbow color). Plug the phone unto your PC then flash the original ROM that you downloaded from HTC site.No need to sync..Hope this will help.

Hey man if you want to remove HSPL you can just run the HSPL program from your pc with your phone connected in bootloader. It's the same procedure as installing HSPL, but now you must select SPL 2.08.000 instead of HSPL 2.08 while running the program.
I did it this way while I had to send my phone back and had no problems with it =)
You can check your SPL version in Bootloader.

yes it was fat 32, ive borrowed a 2gig so i will try that next

Its flashing with the 2gb card so fingers and everything else crossed

Keep us posted pls. I'm thinking also to bring back because of pixel error on the screen.

SPL-3.03.000 is on now. Thanks for the help guy Knowing my luck htc wont find a fault

Pleasure m8, good luck.
Was 3.03 your original spl? If so I guess you do know it's a mission to get back to flash hspl once you get your phone back. You will first have to downgrade your rom to get to a lower version spl and then run hspl.

Phone hang on three color screen...

Hello,
this morning I had a bad surprise. My HTC mini doesn't work anymore and now when I turn on, it get stucked on three color screen.
I use the HTC Sense 3.5 rom and, until today, all works great.
I try to hard reset the phone, to reinstall the original rom, but without any changes.
I would like to try some commands from adb or fastboot, but my phone cannot be recognized from this tools. I have try to change the USB driver, I installed the google driver, but without success. Only the htc ufficial rom is installed correctly but when I restart the phone, I have always the three color screen.
Anyone can help me?
Thanks, Alex

what is your os on your computer ?
if windows 7 64 bit install usb eugeniausb drivers and use mtty (you have to select the usb port there) console. phone has to be in tri color mode.
send "task 2a" to the phon, it should format nand and restore radio.
had this problem too, that was the solution

My OS is Windows 7 x64.
I have tried your drivers and now I can send commands with mtty.
I send the command that you told me and in the screenshot that I have attached you can find the results. Are errors normal??
My phone is always in three colors screen.
I must send other commands?
Thanks for the help.

yes, bad blocks are normal.
when you have finished restart the phone and flash official ROM for your device !

Thanks for your patience.
I have flashed the original rom, the whole process works fine, but when the phone is restarted (after completed the installation) the three color screen returns....

hmm, you could try task 28, task 29, then task 2a...
dont remember, i think i have used all of them

No success....:crying:
The three color screen is always there...

what does it show ? (best would be a picture of the screen)

In attachment a picture of the boot screen.
As I say in the first post I didn't do nothing for brick the phone. I only turn off the phone yesterday, and this morning I only turn on it.
Are there some commands that I can use in mtty to understand why the phone is bricked?
Thanks again.

hmm.. everything looks as it should..
i am out of ideas.. what about trying to flash a newer firmware ? (1.07.xxx is pretty old)

I have tried with a new version, 1.36 if i remember well (I don't have the phone here now), but the result is the same.
Anyway thanks for your support. I'll send it to the techinical support or I'll buy a new device.

I can see your phone hang on spl 1.07 so mean your ruu not installed 1.33! I domnt think that your phone is bricked but I think you have not installed rom (fully) by RUU (mean all parts from ruu). I never success trought ruu (only if my s.n. match ruu! So you need to have gold card in order to install rom (nbh)! Your hboot is all time 1.07 so that mean you done installed only rom parts instead of whole RUU... so definitely you need gold card and you need to reinstall rom by sd card! Of course, always "task 29 than task 2a" before everything

How can I create the gold card?
Is there a tool that can I use?
Thanks!
EDIT:
Now I've a GoldCard, but what file I must copy in the card and what name must have?
I have done several attempts, but I receive always the message "no image file"

You can not create gold card now without working windows phone, so you need to read cid from an working wince in order to generate gold card

I have created a Gold Card with another device and I follow one of the guide on Internet. I think to have done all correctly, and if I restard the bricked phone holding volume down I see for a very small time the message "no image file".

Ok, I understand, and so I have a wrong gold card.
I have another WinCE Device and so I could build a correct gold card.
Can you provide me more information? How can I create a gold card for WinCE?
After creating the gold card, what can I copy in the SD? The .nbh of the official rom?
Thanks!

You need revskills software for generating gold card for wince but free version only can read sd card cid, but if you no want to buy it I can generate one for you, just send me cid and I will generate! Chose photon in menu! Do not reverse cid! Search for right cid (you can see many cids but only one is right so see right disk size that match size of the your sd card and copy that cid!!!), than send me a cid by pm and I will send you back file!
About nbh, yes! You need to extract nbh file from ruu and rename it to PHOTIMG.nbh and copy it to sd card... reboot phone to spl and installation will update your photon (but only if gold card is right)!

Ok, Thanks for the info and for your help!
When I'll come to home, I'll send my CID to you!

I finally restore my phone!!!!!
The goldcard installation works fine!
I post a small resume for others people in case the problem come out to someone else.
After the first try with MTTY I try to follow the "Goldcard way". I try to use an old SD Card of 2GB.
First of all I use the guide for Android, but the gold card doesn't works. After I use the Windows CE way with the help of munjeni, but the result was the same.
In both cases the installation fail with the message "no image file".
Finally I change the SD Card and I use a new one (4 Gb size). I follow the Android guide and in theory I have generated a goldcard for Android.
I copy the PHOTIMG.nbh file in the SD Card and the installation works!
Thanks to schlund and munjeni for the help and for the patience!
