USPL - 100% Working in vista

I have a long fight with USPL and vista, but finally yesterday I won.
All you need to do is:
1. Remove your SD card
2. Do a hard reset or clean storage (some programs like battery status block full access to your device)
3. Connect your mobile to PC and make sure that activsync connection is established
4. Start to flash your device with USPL, when DOS part end and your mobile switch to bootloader mode vista will find new device and start instaling new drivers.
5. Wait till vista finish installing new drivers and unplug your device, do a soft reset
6. Next step is to change vista drivers to xp, to do this you need to fallow this instruction:
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=27
7. After switching the drivers plug your artemis again and install USPL, there should be no more problems with connection lost (errors 260, 270)
8. When USPL instalation will finish you can flash any rom you want to your arte
Succesfully tested on my T-Mobile MDA UK now I've got WM6 WWE.
Thanks pof for your great release

Thanks for news about it..!
Worked for me.

Works Great !

One more notch on WM6 belt!!
Working great!!!
Used it to upgrade to WM6 (bepe's) and later, GSM (2.93.90)!!
Big

Thank you, this helped me USPL my orbit on vista.

Oh...My...God! That is so cool of you! Many thanks!!!

at step 4: do i stop after the DOS part? Or do i continue with the screen with the big picture of a mobile?
Because after the DOS part vista installs the drivers but i'm not yet in the bootloader screen on my mobile (but i've got a white screen).
at step 6: When i untick "allow USB connections" in the WMDC, my mobile is no longer in the Device Manager list so how can i then change te drivers to the XP drivers?

First put your Artemis into bootloader then connect to your PC. Vista will install a driver for a PDA but this driver is not correct. You can find the correct drivers in the posts above this. After installing the NEW drivers you can reset your artemis and disconnect it from your pc. Restart it and just run USPL again. Has to work now.
Good luck!

ok what am i doing wrong...?
have followed all the steps above... but still get a 270?
am on official O2 uk WM6 rom but want to upgrade radio as performance / batt life have become dire since moving from the HTC WM6 rom to the offical O2 one....
device now syncs without drop out having changed driver to the old 2004 one... but still cant upgrade radio or USPL or anything ......
HELP!

the odd thing is the O2 wm6 rom updates fine within vista. but nothing will go over the top of it?

o21 exchanged my orbit... new one updates fine.. woohooo

first thanks for the news now we know the uspl works on vista
second 2. Do a hard reset or clean storage (some programs like battery status block full access to your device) is interesting to know this

Second time flashing, help!
I succesfully flashed my Artemis (after using USPL)... At the moment, I'm tired of my cooked ROM and I would like to install a new ROM. Do I have to use USPL a second time?
Bootloader screen says: SPL 1.11.100 (or something like that...)
Many thanx...

Doesn't work, because Vista says that it is not a Vista driver. How did you all installed the drivers under vista???

cmon uspl gives error code 260
Though I am not new to these ROM upgrading things, I am always receiving error code 260 while trying to update the SPL by cmon uspl. I have already successfully updated by uspl, long ago. I have flashed several ROMs and tried most of them.
Why only cmon uspl is giving me such error?

Noob here! - Bit of advice

Guys,
I have a standard O2 Orbit here and I am looking at installing this TouchFLO ROM I've seen on this forum. However I'm a bit worried about bricking my phone.
Can somebody just give me a few steps to follow. I've searched but I have to say I got a bit confused when reading about CID locks etc...
Any help greatly appreciated.

You have to run USPL first (USPL by "Pof")
You will find it at STICKY Section.
Mostly all the ROM here lately allready built in USPL. so it will automatically takes you to the next DSUU windows.
but if you really wants Step by Step:
-----------------------------------
1. Make sure your Activesync is version 4.5 (or Above).
2. Refresh your PC by "RESTART" and enter WindowsXP again (just to make sure your PC running fresh).
3. Refresh your PDA by "Soft reset" your PDA, wait until finish (just to make sure your PC running fresh).
4. Make sure you have 80% or more Battery.
5. Connect your device to PC via activesync using USB only.
6. wait until "connected" or "Syncronized".
7. Enter folder USPL.
8. Double click "start_uspl.exe" (small yellow ball icon).
9. Black screen will appears... start uploading 10%..20%.... until 100%
10. Update windows will appear... Follow instruction by clicking "NEXT" or tick "YES I AGREE..bla bla" check box.
11. The progress bar will appear... wait until Finish.
12. Do not unplug the USB cable or your PDA become brick.
13. When finish your PDA Restart itself... and normally enter the today screen.
14. If not working try it again from Step: 5 (sometimes need to try more than one)
13. If your PDA restart itself and Show the SPL number is changes then CONGRATULATIONS you have finish install the USPL.
Next step is to Upgrade your ROM using DSUU (its on the ROM folder)
14. install DSUU is simple just double click "ROMUpdateUtility.exe"
15. Update windows will appear & follow instructions.
I Hope it helps..
best regards,
Wens

I'm assuming it won't differ if I'm using Vista as my client and not Win XP?

Also, is it possible to do this Via Bluetooth as my bloody USB cable isn't working correctly!

Vista not using Activesync, but WDMC
you can download at microsoft Website.
Upgrade ROM only can be done using USB cable. other won't work.
Good Luck!

- Install Windows Mobile Device Center 6 for Windows Vista
- On your artemis launch Bootloader and connect with your PC using usb cable. (For bootloader press Voice Dial + On/off button at the same time till you see a multi colored screen)
- Do exactly what the tutorial describe here: http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=27
- Your driver is changed so you can cid unlock your artemis now, do this by using USPL. (download below + manual). Remember to use the same usb port where you changed the driver from, otherwise the connection get lost and you have a update error.
- You can now search for a cooked rom of your choice and simply flash it by running the RUU.exe.

I did Slider's
...I followed the instructions but after step 9
(9. Black screen will appears... start uploading 10%..20%.... until 100%) nothing happened on my phone.
Any ideas. No "Next" or anything...the update rom utility just fired off (running the USPL from the Touch Rom directory

the prob seems to be vista......
or it could be the o2 offical WM6 rom
mine will upload the offical O2 rom but everything else fails.
people tell me im doing it wrong but have followed the driver swap step by step on 2 diff vista machines with no joy.

just borrow somebodyelse Windows XP Machines.. that'll do.

Save me.......I mean my T-Mobile Wing

Hi, guys. I am really new here and I really need some help. Recently I purchased a t-mobile wing from eBay for $260 shipped. And the phone was "DOA" . I guess I suppose to return this phone back to the seller, but I saw this as a FIX IT YOURSELF PROJECT p. I know I will have fun "trying" to un-brick the phone. Since It is without any scratch, I knew even this brick phone can be sell for about $150. I don't mind put the $100 on the line for this little project of mine . I had read many threads (over 200) but none did the job. To me, this phone is a bit strange. Maybe it really BRICK. Anyway, let me describe the status here. I cannot turn on the phone by the power switch. I can get into boot loader and hard reset. If I do a hard reset, and press CALL, the phone will say something about formatting then reboot in about 5 seconds and the T-mobile screen will come out and the phone turn off and that is it. If I press any other keys, the T-mobile screen will come out and the phone turns off. If I got into boot loader, I can turn off the phone with the power switch. So, I know the power switch is working. While in boot loader, I can flash the phone with the 2 stock rom from t-mobile: 4.10.531.3 and 4.26.531.1. But any other rom I downloaded from this website will not work. I can flash these 2 stock roms vise versa. The boot loader will display: IPL 4.10.0002 / SPL 4.10.0000 and IPL 4.26.0002 / 4.26.0000. But either rom will not let me turn on the phone with the power switch. While I am using the flash tool (RUU) with the stock rom the "original image version" will display BLANK. However the whole flash process seems to be smooth. If I use the other roms, the process will stop at 3 percent and display error 270 update error, image file corrupted. I cannot use anything like herald-uspl.exe since active sync will not connect to my phone. It is always grey. However, in system hardware list, there is the POCKET PC USB SYNC. But with the stock ROM, I can flash even active sync is grey. I am just so lost here. Have I over look something basic? I am not sure . Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

go into bootloader and use uspl. try that. tell me if it works

Are these the steps? I cannot update the phone as it will not show connect to the computer by active sync (grey icon). but on hardware manager, it show up
Step 1. Download Herald-USPL-Beta3.
Step 2. UnZIP the file into a folder on your Desktop. Let's call it "MyFirstROM" for simplicity's sake. Notice that there is a folder called RUU within this folder now. Keep that in mind.
Step 3. Download your NBH file and unZIP or unRAR it into that RUU folder. Make sure that that NBH file ends up in the RUU folder, not within a folder inside the RUU folder.
Step 4. Place your phone into flightmode.
Step 5. Go back to the MyFirstROM folder and then run USPL.exe
Step 6. Follow the directions on the screen. EXACTLY.
Your screen on your cell phone will go white around the 75% part of the "second step" now.
ActiveSync will LOOSE its connection.
Step 7. One step 3 on that black window, the RUU flasher will pop up. Just follow the steps.

yep thats it

I cannot use uspl because the active sync issue. It shows grey and the program will stay at 1/3......

Here comes my other question. Why T-mobile official ROM do not require active sync (stated of the readme file of the package) while cook ROM does? So is there any cook rom that does not require active sync? Thanks again

no. put your into bootloader mode and connect it. Your pc should recognize it. Then use uspl.

The PC recognize it. it is in device manager. But ative sync did not find any device. However, I still launched uspl, but it will just stay at "step 1/3...." and that is it. So you think this is brick? Thanks for your time.

WHERE IS THE NBH FILE?????

Launch USPL and run it like that. It should work.
I know HardSPL supports flashing from bootloader. The RUU does the same thing. If you run it via activesync, it soft resets into bootloader.
And the nbh file is found in rom downloads

Tried HardSPL and USPL, both will not work, except stock ROM. But it will not power up with the power buttom.

'Start' batch file does nothing.
Tried opening it directly from a command prompt, but still nothing, except it opens another dos box.
Thoughts ?

The 'start' batch file fails because the first command is 'cd RUU'. but there is not a folder called RUU.
Then it tries to rename two files which also do not exist. Hence it never actually arrives at the exe file to unlock & install the ROM.
Can this work if you simply run the exe file without renaming & changing folders ?

Hi, and thanks for that script...
The .bat works well for me but while updating the rom, I've got an 270 error... 'The images files is corrupted please check your update utility'
does any one had the same issue on his phone? Do you think I just need to download it again? (concidering that the zip file uncompressed normaly, I assume it works well...)
Thanks for your answers...

upgrading MDA Touch
please i need your Help.
I have download the" touch essential V3.5 Manilla" on my PC. But i don´t know how to send it to my MDA.
Activsyc is working.
Where kann i fine the cert_CAB?
I have also unpacked the V3.5 manilla, but there is no way to run it in the MDA how should i do this.
many thanks

My 2 cents...
If I were you I wouldn't rely on a torrent posted by a junior member (age 12) and rather download the ROM posted by Football on Rapidshare => See his post HERE <=.
I've been using it from day 1 without any problem...

gruikdadude...
gruikdadude... I understand were you are coming from but I have been very carefull on what i look for and actually this torrent file was uploaded by someone on xda developers so i am saying the update worked fine for me so why shouldnt it for you so before you start criticising a me for posting something that is just to assure htc touch owners that there is a reliable WM6.1 upgrade is there anything wrong with this......... NO!!! so before you criticise think twice !!!bell end!!!

can you tell me the diffrences between this rom and the original 6,1 rom? i see no manilla2d, but more differences?

hi i tried the whole procedure , but i get the ERROR[270]: Image file is currupted, can anyone help regarding this error, how to get the uncurrupted version?

Since this rom is giving a lot of people problems, why not just use one of the verified good roms from the Elf Upgrading subforum?

Htc hd touch no usb

Hello my friends. I have looked on all threads and cannot solve this problem.
I have a Blackstone which has norwegian rom installed. I wish to change to english rom as i speak or read no norwegian. As my pc's (3) will not recognise this device how can i load a new rom?
I have used several cables , used three computers, active sync windows xp pro sp3 & wmdc on windows 7. Non of the pc's reognise device as either a hard drive or a mobile device. Have two other htc devices (kaiser and touch 2) and these sync to my pc's fine and wmdc downloads appropriate drivers etc.
Bootloader reads
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.54.000
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
after successfully installing new updated norwegian rom from htc site by putting nbh file on sd card after renaming BLACIMG.nbh and putting in bootloader (pwr & vol dwn).
So I can load new norgi rom but no english rom by doing same and using sd card. Can't load hspl or uspl or any sspl unless I am doing some thing wrong?
I can load manual sspl on device and run from phone but when in bootloader cannot still load rom by usb or by putting nbh from rom on sd card.
Could anybody please give me some advice and preferably an idiots step by step guide on how to do.
Remember I have no HTC Touch Hd to USB connection.
When in bootloader device reads serial at the bottom. in white section of tricolour.
Please could I utilise all the great brains on this site and come up with a solution..
I have little hair left to pull out
Kind Regards
