Another Can't-Flash-Rom post. Please help.

I upgraded the ROM to 6.1 awhile back.
Now, I would like to upgrade to the PDAVIET ROM WM6.5 (Core 21502) by TranMinhMan.
However, I'm running into this problem:
I get stuck with the screen showing 4 colors: Red, green, blue. & White.
The red screen saying:
POLA100 MFG
SPL-2.20.OliNex
CPLD-2
Green: nothing
Blue: nothing
White: USB.
& the RUU shows Error 260.
ERROR [260] : CONNECTION
This error occurs when there is an “open port error” before upgrading the CE ROM image.
Solution: You can reset the device and run RUU again. If you still encounter an “OPEN PORT ERROR” again, reset your computer and try again.
I hard reset the phone, reinstalled HardSPL, pretty much did everything but cant get pass that screen.
Thanks for any help.

Try this...
Replace only the ROMUpdateUtility file from some other previous flashed ROM (which you know it worked) over the existing one in the PDA Viet 6.5 ROM file folder. It should be the same size in all ROM's files (1416k or something) and then try again.

Hi dizzyvampire,
My previous ROM update (6.1) was directly downloaded from HTC 's website, so it's: _HTC Touch Cruise_RUU_Polaris_HTC_WWE_3.13.405.0_radio_sign_25.85.30.07_1.59.42.15_Ship.exe
How do I seperate that 1 ROMUpdateUtility?
thanks,
D

Help on upgrading HTC P3300

Hi all.
I have been reading in the forum for hours and hours, without beeing able to find an easy way (that I understand) on how to upgrade.
I am an old (retired) man, and not stupid (I hope) but have a slight consentration problem.
I want to upgrade from WM5.0 to Windows Mobile 6.1
(+Opera Mini, support for 8GB SDHC and TomTom 7)
I have: a HTC P3300 ARTE100
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL 1.12.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 1.12.0.0
ROM version: 1.12.405.1 WWE
ROM date: 9/12/06
Radio version: 02.67.90
Protocol version: 4.1.13.28
ExtROM version: 1.12.405.101
The device is not locked (I belive) because I can use any SIM I want in the phone.
I have tried to flash to SPL 1.11.cmon, but ended up with SPL 1.11.0000
So I downloaded and installed HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP This put my phone back to original, (SPL 1.12.0000)
Synced and copied enablerapi.cab and Cert_SPCS.cab Disconnected, and ran both of them.
I tried to run start_uspl.exe, but it will only try to update from current rom ver. 1.12.405.1 to ver.9.99
And after a while I get a message on my P3300:
Unable to open log file....
tiny_console_init done
And ROM ver. is back to SPL 1.12.0000
Suggestions anyone?

ok pm me and i will walk you though.
first update to the newest version of active sync thought.
next make sure your device is fully charged.
next back up all data from your device. flashing a new rom will erase all data.
next cid unlock read the first post and download the attachments
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308242
after you have done this pm me.
as for opera just download one of the many prepacked opera cabs. here is a link to one that should work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=281464&d=1266292843
to my limited knowledge of sdhc support and the p3300 all of the cooked roms have sdhc support cooked in. so when you get a newer rom on your phone sdhc should work.

Arggggh
I can use any SIM in my phone. Is CID unlock really neccesary?
I downloaded pof's Artemis_USPL and ran it, but it seems nothing was changed.
I too wants to change the ROM ver. from 1.12.405.1 to ver. 9.99
And the link to: HTC P3300 WWE factory rom - is dead.
But I found HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP another place.
I have also found and downloaded AndreW82_WM6.1_21056_Lite_v1.4_WWE.nbh
But am afraid to try to install it since my ROM is not ver. 1.11.cmon.
Here is what I have tried so far:
Downloaded Artemis_USPL
Synced and copied enablerapi.cab and Cert_SPCS.cab
Disconnected, and ran both of them.
Booted and Synced.
Started start_uspl
(wich opened a dos window)
After 10....20.... and so on, phone softbooted.
Message on phone:
UNABLE TO OPEN LOG FILE
TINY_CONSOLE_INIT DONE

New window:

SPL is still the same (SPL 1.12.0000)
___________
Trying again:

Ran EnableRapi.cab and Cert_SPSC.cab
Did not boot or disconnect, but started start_uspl.exe
10...20... and so on
70% phone-screen goes white
PDA Phone Update Utility 3.0.3.1 pops up on PC.
No reaction on phone, Hard reset.
SPL is the same (1.12.0000)

...
mini z
soft reset when the ruu window opens..
when dos window closes..
ok, now for my question..
my spl is 1.11.cmon so cid is already done and has been for a year, i have flashed several roms so i am not a noob at flashing..
the connection from my pc to artemis dsconnected during flash and now in bootloader.. it wont flash from sd..
i know how to use the mtty commands coz iv used it before, but cant remember how to get it to select USB from the 'port' menu..
*how do you get it to select usb?
i know how to use mtty but cant remember

Ai... I'm sorry man, I've never flashed an Artemis before and I don't have the tools to do it either. Maybe you should ask in #xda-dev on IRC?

...
I.m doing something wrong, but don't know what.
Phone on - connecting USB - phone syncs.
Start start_uspl.exe - at 100% screen goes white.
Softresetting - waiting for sync - then confirming on PDA Phone Update Utility.
(The uspl.zip i got from raving_nanza)
After it has finnished, phone boots - and I still have USPL ver. 1.12.0000

Hi
Tought I should not try to install the .nbh file if USPL was not 1.11.cmon.
Btw:
One of the first steps is to take out the SD-card. Is that what I am doing wrong?
(Should I copy the AndreW82xxxx.nbh to my SD, and have it installed when I run the uspl/RUU?)

...
this is 1.11.cmon.. just try it..

...
take out sd card..
dont flash andrews rom..
do uspl with the one ive just uploaded on this thread..

This is obviously where I miss something.
the RUU_signed is a .nbh file.
So how do I start it?
Should I use activesync and put it on the phone and some how start it from there?
Or should I put it in the same folder as the uspl cmon, and then run the uspl?
Or is there another trick that I have missed?

put it in the uspl folder and overwrite the one inside..
then do uspl..

"Error 270 Update error"
"The image file is corrupted. Please check uour update utility."
(I am using XP sp3.)
(But this time it at least tried to update from 1.12.0000 to 1.11.nosize)
I also tried renaming the ruu_signed to arteimg.nbh
Seems my phone has some kind of lock on the SPL 1.12.0000.
Can it be write-protected in some way?
And if so, how can I "unlock" the write protection?

I.m doing something wrong, but don't know what.

Asuming SR means SoftReset - I tried, but it did not help.
Same Error (270)
So I tried again, and again.
Cert_SPCS.cab and enablerapi.cab without disconnecting nor syncing the phone.
Then start_uspl.exe, and on white screen I just started (or rather continued with) the RUU.
WOOHOO - on 3. attempt my SPL changed to 1.11.cmon
So, if you read this post, and have the same problem as I had, here is how to do it:
Download attached file, unzip it, and read the install.txt

...
1.1.cmon is 1.11.cmon
dont forget to thank POF
glad you done your spl now, which rom you gonna use, i suggest the andreW82 rom or the babbelut rom..

andreW82 +1
I glad, you did it, Mini-Z

I have a slight consentration problem, so I forgot that I am only half way.
I have downloaded a couple of .nbh files (AndreW82, Touch 4.02, Tom Black v5.0).
I have not yet decided wich one to use.
I want to install TomTom7 and Opera Lite + support for 8GB SDHC.
Now I just have to figure out how to install one of the .nbh files.

[Q] Issue with Radio Firmware Update.

Specs-
OS:
5.2.21892 (21892.5.0.89)
Manila Version:
2.5.20121412.2
Rom Version:
2.13.531.1 (90963) WWE
Radio Version:
2.10.50.26
Running the HD2 from Tmobile (578mb).
Issues-
When I run Leo_CustomRUU with the radio firmware (Eugenia Project - HTC HD2 Radio ROM - 2.12.50.02_2) renamed to RUU_Signed.nbh - it goes through all the prompts and it will eventually stop with an error message about communication errors with usb.
I tried several ports and even hooked up an older system to make sure it was not my rig. The usb on both machines works fine with activesync or as as mass storage device perfectly.
I was able to flash with HardSPL3 without a problem (got the We hacked it screen).
Yet, when I tried to flash the radio it gives me that communication error. If it helps I also get a similar error when trying to flash the room (I tried Energy.Leo.21679.Sense2.5.Cookie.DinikGlass.Sep.24).
Why am I trying to flash the radio firmware? My ultimate goal is to run Froyo. I have copied to the Android folder on my SD card a version (despite my best efforts to be specific on all other aspects, it escapes me the version I am running. I know it is froyo, I just do not recall the builder or version) and I am getting the dreaded robotic voices when I try to make or receive a call. So, rather than troubleshoot my android rom, I am looking to downgrade the radio and see if that solves it as from the pages I have read this seems a likely culprit.
I thank all in advance.
Update:
I found out that using HSPL3_PKG had not put my phone back to 2.08HSPL as it said.. it was still at 2.10. So, I tried highlighting the 2.08 regular, and it did go down to it. Yet, after trying three more times, it is not taking the 2.08HSPL. Anyone have any ideas?
Fixed:
Fourth time is the charm? Works now though.

Did you make sure you have an ActiveSync connection before trying to flash anything?

Dr.Jekyll,
Yes. When I connect the USB it asks for which way I wish to initialize it, I choose ActiveSync. That program starts up, syncs and stays green in the system tray.
I then double click on the Leo_CustomRUU program and click through the steps, the HD2 goes to the HTC with the progress bar as well as the program's progress bar.
It just sits there and does nothing. After about six to eight minutes, it will just speak of a communication problem and error out.
I do not know if this matters, but I am running XP Pro SP3 and ActiveSync 4.5.

Hi,
Why not flash from SD?
1. Rename the .nbh to LEOIMG.nbh
2. Copy to root of sd card
3. Shutdown device
4. Hold vol down and power
5. Follow the introductions
6. Press power button to flash rom
As taken from http://ip208-100-42-21.static.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=615095
I seldom flash through ActiveSync WMDC, always from Storage card.

[Q] Help me with rooting to android 2.2

Hello,
I'm new here, and with rooting.
I tried to root my htc dream first, but i failed haha,
So now i have the HTC Leo HD2.
Im really happy with it, but i miss the apps of android.
So i wanted to root from windows mobile into android 2.2
So i rooted and opened the files, and when it boots up it gives much codes, and then it says : Jumping to kernel.
It stops out there and i waited very long.
I only putted the android folder unzipped in my SD card.
But, i readed things of HSPL and the right rom ..
I don't understand those things at all.
So i hope you guys could help me..
Radio : 2.06.51.07
Rom: 1.66.404.1 (76641) NLD
Rom Date 01/14/10
Protocolversion : 15.30.50.07U
Manila (?) version : 2.5.19211619.0
Version of OS : 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
Dont know if you need this but yeah..
Sorry for my english, i'm only 14 years old and from The Netherlands.
Thanks in advance!

You need to change your radio to 2.XX.50.XX version. (2.14.50.xx is fine)
You are using the word "root" wrong. HD2 android builds are already rooted, you don't need to do anything. Just update your radio. (first flash HSPL before attempting to update radio)
HSPL from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6891358&postcount=1893
Radio from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Also after those you need to flash a new winmo rom. Your winmo rom is too old. For example: Energy rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784

@memin1857 thanks mate!

I've a problem it says this when i try to install the HSPL:
CRITICAL ERROR
Flow: 00000001
Error code: 00000002
Description: USB Connect failed!
But ive my phone into the usb.. :S

make sure youre connected to windows mobile device center.

Start the phone-> Connect with ActiveSync

You have to install MS Active Sync (dunno if it's free, got it on my business notebook) or something that enables you to establish a connection with your phone via Active Sync.

what ROM version do you have on your phone right now? turn the phone then back on. when the phone starts up look to the bottom left of the screen and list exactly what you see typed in red. this will tell us where you are on your phone currently. then we go from there.

you should be able to upgrade from 1.42.000.
do you have windows mobile device center open and running in the background showing the phone is connected? you should. then run HSPL3. it should reboot your phone to the tri-colored screen and check for usb connection. then choose the version you want to install.
is this what you are doing?
