Hi all.
Need some help really bad. Tried to upgrade my magician (s100) to ROM 1.11.133WWE from qtek.se.
Did exactly as it said I had to but as soon as I started the upgrading my magician went all dead and black and the install shield wizard went down. The only thing left on the computer screen is a box that says: "checking the information on your device... please wait...
Please dont disconnect your device from your PC until the update is completed".
So what do I do?!?!
Am desperate to get my device working again!
Please please help me!
I'm really sorry to here this ... anyway..
As far as I know.. u have my to disconnect ur PPC from the USB cable, then restart PC, u should continue to upgrade after u PC restarts..
u may also try to change the port of the USB cable as well...
this may work on Win XP, I don't know anything about other OS..
I'm not sure about this since I did not face this problem b4..but this solution was reported in another forum ( and maybe here )
I hope this will help...and maybe someone else could give u more INFO...
cheers
Alive!
Got it working!
Did a couple of reboots and that made the trick...
Now, my only problem is that I cant seem to restore my backup-files
Does anyone know where I can download the free program o2plus that I had earlier? Can´t find it anywhere. Loved that thing...
Thanx!
I believe it is better if u do a new fresh installation of everything instead of making a restoration
many users reported problems when restoring after an upgrade...
mostly, ur device will become very slow ....
please help i have the t-mobile mda compact pm200 and i was removing a cracked version on pocket dos v1.09 from the remove list and it said windows wil need to perform a soft rest yes or cancel i clicked yes and my system restarted but now it just get stuck at the t-mobile screen. i have tried doing the manufatures hard reset but no joy i have take out the battery no joy and i can't even access it through my p.c what can i do to get it up and running again i don't care about the data already on there cuz it is all backed up on my sd cad
When you took out your battery, have you been waiting til the backup battery fully drained out? It takes about 30-60 minutes, better leave a few hours. Try this and post your results...
thank for trying but unfrtunatly it had no effect i tried for two hours then reinserrted it and no joy so i waited a further day but still nothing any other ideas tnx
Is it getting into BootLoader? Then you might try Flashing a new ROM!
how would i go about doing that? my computer won't even recognis3e my phone
I had about the same problem:
I was trying to install the Pocket PC Greek language support (free trial version) from the site http://greek.pocket-pc.penreader.co...der_Greek.html. on my MDA Vario Tmobile when it crashed!! It shows just a white screen and does nothing at all!! I soft and hard reseted the device but after restarting it shows the Tmobile screen and after a few seconds a white screen! Actually I am not so sure that the device is hard reseting because it doesn't ask me for a confirmation of the hard reset. When I startup my device it stops on the same white screen.No windows loading, no other commands accepting, not recognized by my desktop.
Did anybody have the same problem before? Does anybody know how can i get my PPC on working condition again
Thanks dagonist.
I hope somebody can help....
See for ROM upgrades on the forum :wink: if u get some images on the mini then it's not dead! It's just stuck at the bootloader mode, meaning that the OS is somehow damaged.. To solve this prob u must plug the mini into the pc (it will be recognised as an unidentified device, don't worry), then download a ROM upgrade set (u will find these on the net or in the xda-dev ftp). Execute the prog, wait 'till it finished and voila! Ur device will come as new If u encounter problem do a simple search in the forum regards rom - bootloader - upgrade and u willl find a lot of infos :wink:
Hope this helps, MocciJ
Thanks MocciJ.....but my desktop pc doesnot "see" my pocket pc at all!!
:? then it isn't yet in bootloader, is just stuck at the beginning of a broken OS! I mean that it tries to load the OS, but then it gets stopped since he read bad ROM (probably deleted in some way since u encountered this prob removing a prog) try to get it in bootloader mode, by pressing together the camera, power and reset buttons.. U will lose all the things in the RAM memory, but in this case u really can't do anything else.. After entering in bootloader, u can easily upgrade it..
MocciJ
Well, I just tried the camera button+power button+reset button....and nothing happens! It reset and comes back to the same white screen...
Any other suggestions??
well, did u tried to make it correctly? I mean: for entering boot loader u havce to press camera + power, and then reset (with camera and power pressed) if u can't still enter the bootloader, then I'm out of ideas, sorry...
MocciJ
I amdoing it write but nothing happens....
In the screen what can u read? If u read serial (it is barely visible) then see if it turn to usb when u connect the cable: if yes, we 're at a very good point...
When it starts up it shows the Tmobile logo and then for a few seconds :
ipl 1.08
spl 1.08
gsm 01.09.10
(something else...)
after a few seconds a white screen without any letters or anything else.
But I cannot see it anywhere on my desktop pc...
:? I can't figure out how you can get it back.. If it displays images and text, then the bootloader is still alive.. It even tells u the correct version of the complete ROM.. but I wonder why it can't access to the bootloader.. u must search in the forum how to reach the bootloader, but I'm sure of the power camera reset combination; when u can read SERIAL or even better USB on the device, u probably have solved most of ur problems, but chances are that u have even bad clusters of ROM, and cannot be restored with an upgrade (it happened to the External Rom of my mini after a bad upgrade)
I suggest to send it to repairs, before doing somewhat wrong, because if there is an original ROM inside they will repair it for sure, free :wink:
MocciJ
Thanks. The problem is that I got the phone from ebay, from a UK seller, and it was locked to Tmobile. So I don't think that I can ask for a factory/guaranty repair....

seee i tried all of thoose things but i found the main problem was getting the computer to recoginise the thing and the program i put on was a cracked version ( i know i am a naughty boy) so if i send it off they could cause legal problems couldn't it
it depends on what u are meaning by "not recognised" but I assume that windows dosesn't even try to recognise the device (I mean that there aren't bubbles, notifications, or any other changes on the system) for the cracked software, well if u have installed it right into any RAM folder (not in the storage memory) then u can tell the repairing center that ur unit simply doesn't power on correctly.. :wink:

hi,
thnx for the help.. i did follow the steps mentioned.. but it styll doesnt wrk. whn i try to flash the rom.. it supposedly looses connection wid the computer .. the screen looses the light buh the wizard is on all the way.. u cant use it though.. buh the lights are still blinkin.. (the wifi and phone)
thnx
hey, my mda doesnt even turn on anymore, do u guys think its the battery but the battery was fine when i flashed it but then it doesnt boot to the window, so i took the battery out and put it back in and it doesnt turn on anymore.. i tried the camera, rest button and other stuffs. do u think my phone is bricked? or i should def. get a new battery and try it out?
I suggest you back to your Official rom first then start over again. I do this many times. Activesync always loose its connection before start flashing. It's a normal procedure. When you mention that your Wizard is still up and on the way, what you mean exatcly? Be more specific bringing point details on where you are stuck for instance. Then I'll try to help you out.
Good luck.

Sounds a power problem to me. I've been into this couple of times after being in a bootloader mode for a long time. Plug the Wizard directly into the powerwall to start charging then back to your flashing process first doing with an official rom. I don't think you have bricked it.

sry, i forgot to mention that it doesnt even charge too, both powerwall or pc
Try to enter in a bootloader mode by hold on the camera button while pressing the reset button. You'll go to bootloader. If not, remove battery one more time, wait seconds and put it in back. Then, force bootloader again and try to charge through powerwall. You should get an orange light or similar during recharging. Check your model. Hope it helps you this time.

which version is it ,G3 or G4,and which Rom were trying to upgrade with.
Well,if its a G3 then,there's some power problem,but if it's a G4 and you tried to flash a Rom with IPL/SPL included,well its a brick.
Yeah...unfortunately zabardast_1 is right about your device. If it is a G4 and you flashed a G3 ROM, you could have bricked your techtoy! Hope you knew what you was doing at that time!
Try to always provide enought information regarding your environment and device so we can help you out better!

Could I solve this proplem if i unlock and install custom rom? just wondering if that would help?!
Hi,
"Smart Mobility" screen
I had that problem too, and did a hard-reset.
Hold Volume Up + Volume Down buttons (hold hard) and press Power switch until you see the warning sign to confirm a hard reset.
The system will do a re-flash of the original Windows Mobile ROM.
Start Android by running HaRET from Windows Mobile
Yes, you have to run HaRET.
You can make it simpler by making a short-cut in Windows Mobile Start Menu.
Tap and hold on HaRET until you see the Dialog Box to Cut, Copy, etc.
Tap Copy.
Go to Device-Windows-StartMenu, paste as a shortcut
These steps are in the Touch HD Manual. If you do not have one, download it from the HTC website.

GBX0C2.3.7 Build is on SD card.
You will need to boot from Windows Mobile first, then run HaRET to reboot to XDAndroid.
If XDAndroid hangs, you need to remove battery, put back battery and power on. Then you see Windows Mobile and do above step again.
Always, from XDAndroid to go back to Windows, you need to Power Off, and then Power On again.

You say you are flashing the original ROM. You mean the original HTC Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM? I understand you can only get this done only from HTC authorized centers.

U have to install HTC USB Sync Drivers drivers
Put the phone into bootloader by pressing volume down + power button
plug the usb cable to the computer/laptop
and then run the shipped rom executable file... when the tricolor screen displays USB at the bottom.
else extract the RUU_signed.nbh or any file with .nbh extension from the shipped file with zip viewers like 7-zip
rename the file to BLACIMG.nbh
Put into the root of memory card
put the phone into bootloader and follow the screen instructions..
And the most important thing... search the forum.. before posting..
Hope this works for you
Hi there! I think that you can't reflash even a Original ROM without unlock the phone with new Hard-SPL from Olinex ,considering that you have tried a Hard Reset and nothing happened ,your last option is to unlock the phone and reflash the ship ROM ,or to flash a custom ROM ( is not a good solution if you still have warranty,but still you cand revert your stock SPL:good so ,you have nothing else to lose , all is left for you is to try what i said before . If you don't know how to do it,let me know and i will post the exact links to instructions.
Hi all,
You can try a NAND ROM like the new release of Fagyi. There is an easy step by step manual to installation. You will lose winmo, but you will have a real android.
It looks pretty and he has solved many of the issues of previous versions.

You need to understand what you are going to do or you may end up with a phone that does not work anymore.
