Updating Exec ROM - I'm so screwed, please help

Hi guys,
I just tried to upgrade to the latest o2 Exec ROM, followed all the instructions to the letter ... then the dialog box that says "getting device information.... don't unplug, bla bla" came up and stayed the same for over 70 minutes and decided something isn't right, so I unplugged it.
Now, my exec only shows "USB v1.00" screen ... can't turn it off, and hard reset can't restore anything. It appears my ROM has already been zapped clean ? ...
Arrrggghh, this is driving me nuts. If anyone can tell me how I can get things back to normal, I would be eternally grateful
Chris

the same happened to me.
Connect the usb cable again and try running the setup wizard again.

1) Disconnect your Universal from the cable.
2) Perform a hard reset by pressing the 2 (-) buttons simultaneously while pressing the reset pin found at the back of the Universal.
3) You will notice that the screen is still blank with the "v 1.0" on the screen. DO NOT WORRY.
4) Connect back your Universal via cable.
5) You will hear the connection sound from your computer.
6) Run the install application again.
7) Make sure you DO NOT DISCONNECT the cable this time.
8) RELAX!!!!!! and wait for the update.

I had same problem but this is what I did
1) Hard Reset
This screen pops up
Press0 to restore
Factory default
Press X to exit
2) I pressed X
3) Plugged in USB cable
4) Voila, windows recognises new device, when driver is installed pressed X
ran software utility (rom upgrade) again
All is working, Panic over PHEW!

Phheewwww ... thanks so much you guys, really appreciate all the detailed instructions ... it's upgrading as i post this ... for a moment there, i thought i would have to ship this back to o2 ... He hee ... you guys are the greatest ! :lol:

So guys now that you all have upgraded your universals, is it worth the update ?
I've been running my current one in Basic Mode since getting it and have not experienced any problems yet.

i works better,it responds quicker and no crashes yet. the themes fit according to the screen. try it.

Which themes?

screen switching is like lightning, definately an improvement.
Overall Id say it seems quicker loading menus
(eg start>programs, Start>settings etc)
I think it was worth it although i shat myself when the upgrade went wrong.
Tut Tut o2, wtf was that all about?

hi guys, i have follow the instruction, and it is not working for me.. any others ideas
thanks

My Method:
1) Connect your Universal from the cable. (Whole step not need disconnect the cable)
2) Perform a hard reset by pressing the 2 (-) buttons simultaneously while pressing the reset pin found at the back of the Universal.
3)This screen pops up
Press0 to restore
Factory default
Press X to exit
4) I pressed 0
5) You will notice that the screen is still blank with the "v 1.0" on the screen. DO NOT WORRY. Wait about 15 seconds!
6) You will hear the connection sound from your computer. (If it appare a wrong connect device message on computer, then retry from step 2 to step 4. This step my need to try many times until hear the connection sound from your computer) [Some times I had repeated three steps twenty times then can success!]
6) Run the install application again.
7) Finish & Reset.

i have done, the step. Due to frustration i have remove the active sync and install a new one. might be this step will no longer use.
thanks any way. is there any other suggestion?..

Download the uni dopod rom upgrade from the xda server. Extract the executable file. Then flash ONLY the radio rom using the MAUpgradeUt. Do not use the other rom files (e.g. extended and MS rom, so delete these two before running the MAUpgradeUT.) good luck.

Thank u Simba
I shall try your suggestions and wish me luck for xmas
many thanks n very much appreciated..

thank u simba
New year is on d way....
BINGO..... yes I made it...
as simba suggested I download the UNI DOPOD rom113.36..extract the executable files ie.
!. Enter BL
2.GetDeviceData
3.RUU.dll
4.UI.dll
5.RUU.Conf
6.MaUpgradeUt noID
into a new folder ..add in the radio file from either rom113.188 or 113.36
and then execute/run MaUpgradeUt noID file......IT WORKS
It therefore may means that DOPOD900 may require the DOPOD EXECUTABLE FILES (so as not to have the same problems as I had over xmas) listed above to upgrade either the CE rom, radio rom or extended rom..
It definitely had been a very interesting xmas...the freeze is finally over n a Better time awaiting, better days ahead n a better YEAR is around d corner...Happy New Year to everyone

Stuck at first screen

After unsuccesfully trying to change my rom my prophet is stuck at the booting screen. Soft reset, hard reset.. Noting works :S
can someone please, please help

Have you made USPL? (Case yes) Was it Ok?
Might you check out this thread here:
xda-developers > Artemis > Artemis upgrading etc.>Orbit Stuck On Booloader
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344733

I tried to update to ProphetTouchVIII. First step, using the RUU worked. but after the second step, upgrading the rom to ProphetTouchVIII and hard reboot I got a short message (less than 1 sec) "format FAT partition
Format is completed!!" and now it returned to bootings screen and got stuck there.
I will read the recommended thread but so far I havent found anything helpfull there. The big problem is that my computer wont find the m600 anymore so I cant flash the rom back to a working one, i guess..?
further suggestions are welcome..

What makes you think that your phone is bricked?
If your phone was actually bricked then you would not be able to get into bootloader OR recovery. If this is not the case then you are not bricked.
I suggest to anyone having this issue to wipe your ext partition on your sdcard, clear and wipe your data, reflash your rom.
Why people don't perform nandroid backups really puzzle the hell out of me.

[Q] HTC HD2 Stuck On "GO GO GO!" cwm.

Okay, basicly let me explain what heppend yessterday:
I dropped my phone on the screen from like 15 cm, on wooden floor, but badly it fall on the screen. Then i wannted to see if the phone is ok, i turned it on and then tried slide the unlock, but basicly what heppend is the touchscreen didnt work. Then it turned off (the screen) but when i press button, it still lighted. So i tought, if i would press the resset button and boot it agian all will be fine.. But i booted it, and the magldr just did it work, it tryed boot it to android i had TyphooN Cyanogen Mod, but sadly it didnt boot. It just at the "Go go go!" part. I was like what the **** are you kidding me, so i did agian and no luck. So i contacted my friend that has hd2 and knows about these stuff. He just told me to do task 29, that didnt work so i downloaded the toolkit, but it didnt work too, i formatted, this time i tryed install cwm freshly, just to install my typhoon agian right, so my friend told me to go to the ad recovery, and just install it from zip.. it stuck at go go go agian. Now i really dont frking know what heppend, i tryed taking battery out, as my friend said - no luck. Is there anything else i can do, or my hd2 is totally died

i will donate if someone will seriously help me!

format your sd with panasonic sd formatter. then make task29-flash mgldr-flash radio-flash cwr and flash rom. if not boot then change rom to another one.

In cwm perform a "wipe data / factory reset"
This will clear the system folders on the ext and fat partitions of the SD card, and the data on the nand. Sometimes a rom wont boot if there are leftovers in those folders.

i cant even go on cwm...

well thx, ill try it anyway, with help of my friend

if you cant goin to CWM,
when you at MAGLDR menu
you Choose USB Flasher
(must use Volume down/Volume up button, then press Call button)
(if the buttons cant, you must sent it to repair...)
and connet it to pc to re-flash any new CWM...

i reflashed cwm hundred of times, i also formatted the whole phone and that didnt work
and buttons did work

Any luck with your issue TotalErikas? I had the same problem, I didn't drop my phone, but somehow screen just froze when I turn on from sleep and I thought restarting solves the issue then..... stuck on go!go!go! screen... tried task 29, flash rom, flash magldr, flash recovery, flash cLK... nothing works... I really hope it's not hardware issue... I already paid loads to replace screen twice.... Please share if you have any luck with yours! thanks~

I just fixed mine. The problem is not any how with screen or something. Its all about battery contact, remove the battery and push those three things that gives contact, to boot the screen and stuf..

HTC HD2 automatically turns on when battery is inserted

Hi,I have a problem with my HTC hd2 which is when I insert the battery the phone boot up without me even pressing the on button.So was just wondering is there anyone that knows a fix for this problem I'm facing?thanx

Sorry but your problem is strange for me, I suggest you to reset all the phone starting with the task29 to erase the internal rom.

Make a backup of anything you want first then i would start with just a fresh download and install of the ROM your using. If that don't work then I would suggest what adone.h has said to try. Don't forget to wipe data, cache, and delvic if using Android.

Ok thanx for that adobe.h and htccraze, I will give then both a try and keep u posted on what happens.thanx

hmmmm i thought it was common for HD2 to do that or is it only during those HSPL/ radio update this would happen.

OK mengfei,but when i flash a new android rom the nand way and its all booted up and everything,then i press the power button i dont get the screen so the turn the phone off or restart it.Any answers?

Eject battery, let it out for some minutes.
Reset the OS.
If these things above won't work, you have to install a new OS (maybe bootloader has some problems, too). I had this problem, too. Got rid of it by removing the battery for a longer time. Now everything is fine.

it's a weird phenomenom
i got the same problem when i firstly got the HD2
but it automatically disappeared last month after i flash several wp7 roms

I have the same problem

It is a hardware problem in the digitiser/cable/button area.
My touch screen failed, when I got the repaired phone, I had the same symptoms - battery in phone on. Also pressing just the volume down button would boot into the tri-colour screen. This happened with windows or android flashed into nand.
Odd thing was that running the key test function in magldr seemed to work and the power button operated normally as far I could tell when powered up into windows or android.
I sent the phone back for repair again and got a refurb replacement.

I have tried to flash a windows 7 Rom to cure the problem mario_net,but when I trying to flash the Rom it just keeps coming up error near the end of the flashing process.Have u any answers people?

CR5N,just wondered how do u do the key test function in magldr?

Apologies, it is under advanced -> key test in cwm (I'm on 5.0.2.6) accessed via magldr recovery.

Let it out for some minutes don't insert battery immediately after removed.
