If you crashed you XDA ( mine is Qtek 1010 ) after update

Hi all, Im just new here and thanks alot for u all..
my Qtek 1010 back again to the life :lol:
Once I decided to upgrade my Qtek 1010 (StrongARM) to the new CE ROM which is the 3.16 the newest one while in writing this and you can get it from www.qtek.dk & to upgrade to the newest radio ROM 4.19 and you can get it from the same web site. I CRUSHED MY Qtek 1010 and nothing can do. Please read my full story to find the correct way to upgrade your Qtek 1010 or any other XDA as an experience of mine.
The fault that I made which crushed my pocket pc is that I upgraded the GSM ROM with out making a hard reset to my device before the upgrading process so that a file confliction happened with other installed programs with the new GSM ROM file while it being uploaded to the GSM ROM. Windows CE OS trying to show up a massage to you but can not done because of the dependent of the OS on the GSM ROM. On other words windows CE phone edition depend on the GSM ROM for operating normally other ways it not going to be steady the OS will stop and trying to load the GSM ROM if fail it will stop at this step. System not crushed yet it stopped to this point and waiting for GSM ROM programming (Program B) to be fixed. It can be fixed by various ways the easiest one is the way I have done.
ATTENTION: BEFORE UPGRADING ALLWAYS BE SURE YOUR DEVICE BATTERY IF FULLY RECHARGED.
Problem :
Qtek 1010 corrupted after Radio Stack Upgrade. Windows CE operate but not normally, just the today screen shows up when pressing the volume button.
Aim :
To fixed the device.
Theory :
When you decide to upgrade your device its highly recommended to perform a full reset (hard reset) to your device after backup your data from the device. Then do the upgrade BUT be so patient, upgrading process take a long time. The following steps show the upgrading process :-
1- Backup your data.
2- Perform a full reset (hard reset).
3- Connect your device with activesync.
4- Run the upgrade setup file.
5- Wait… wait… wait..
6- You may damage your device if you didn’t wait.
7- The device will restart automatically don’t be hurry we didn’t finish yet. Wait..
8- A progress bar shown.. wait till it become 100%. And wait again..
9- The device performs an automatic soft reset.
10- A message dialog appears telling you ROM update is completed successfully.
11- Done.
When something goes wrong don’t panic take it easy and check this :-
1- Perform full reset.
2- Wait to system load.. if it take a very long time perform a soft reset and wait.
3- Press the volume button the system today screen should been shown.
4- Bering a memory card (SD or MMC) are the same for this.
5- Make a directory named by 2577, and copy and autorun.exe into the 2577 directory this program runs automatically when you insert the memory card into its slot. Place a copy of the CAB file of the updating source onto the root directory of the memory card.
\ RSUpgrade.sa.CAB
|----- 2577\
|____ Autorun.exe
6- place the card into the slot. Auto execution going up follow the instructions
7- be patient it will talk a long time.
8- The click tab to start shown, click and wait till the calibration screen shown.
9- Enjoy your device.
The upgrading of the win CE OS is easy and again be patient .
Best regards.

Details instructions for SD card upgrade to Siemens A.30.09

Hope this helps, this is a simple process, these instructions appear long and difficult because i've added quite a bit of detail.
Prepare Everything
1 - Download and install XDATolls http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/XDAtools
2 - Connect your PocketPC and make sure that ActiveSync is running
3 - Delete all files on your SD Card (in your pocketPC)
Extract the ROM files & get ready for the upgrade
4 - Run the .exe file you download from Siemens, this will extract the files into C:\Program Files\SX56 upgrade utility. Don't proceed with the install, just exit it after the extract is completed.
5 - Confirm the existance of the file C:\Program Files\SX56 upgrade utility\english\NK.nbf
Using XDAtools (OS Image tool) transfer the ROM onto your SD card via your PocketPC and cradle (this is a new feature)
6 - Run the XDA OS Image tool (part of XDA Tools)
7 - As your source select the file C:\Program Files\SX56 upgrade utility\english\NK.nbf (directory is selected by clicking the square button with dots)
8 - As your destination select from the drop down box SD Card
9 - Click copy to transfer the file, if it fails check that ActiveSync is running & try again
Re-flash Image using Wallaby Bootloader method
** THIS WILL ERASE ALL DATA ON YOUR POCKETPC, you have been warned, make sure you've got a backup of everything you need.
10 - Plug your PocketPC into AC power & Make sure that your SD card is in the slot on your pocketpc
11 - Using the stylus top, hold down the left hand soft-reset, then press the power button.
12 - The bootloader should find the new ROM image on the SD card, press the action button to start the load (action button been the central click of the direction button)
13 - The load process will take about 5 minutes or so
14 - Once completed, use the stylus top and press the battery disable button, leave for 5 seconds then press it again to enable the unit.
Enjoy the new ROM, note that the first bit of any audio is played at a reduced volume, this doesn't help short ring tones nor fonix voicedial. Other than that the ROM seems quick and highly stable.

very good guide: question
do you know if this will touch the RSU?

no thats the whole point of copy'ng out the nbf file is that you dont mess with the rsu

which version is better?
thank you for your reply rudegar.
What version do you recommend for a SX56?
A.30 (cooked) , 4.01 (cooked) or the one released from siemens?
I heard that 2003 have some bugs, is it true? I have ppc 2002, is it worth the upgrading to 2003?

i dident have too many problems with my xda1 when i upgraded it to 4.01
org from tmobile
dident have a single SD card ereasing issue like some people report
but nor did i really think that the os was all that different

A.30 or 4.01?
What about A.30? what are the differences between both? which is better?

Mine dims the scren when I do the reset but then comes back on - still at the SERIAL and v1.01 - I tried taking battery etc out but still nothing - any more help most appreciated
If I let the battery run down then charge, the XDA comes back on to windows, goes thru all the calibrations, but then after a while - goes back to the boot screen
any help most appreciated

i'm sorry before, but...
very interesting this guide,
mine is HIMALAYA (O2-xda-II), and got same problem --> Stuck in BootLoader
unfortunatelly my xda-II can't connect to PC. when connected to PC detected as Unknown-Device.
maybe like This Methode can be applicable to my xda-II
but with firmware /ROM that have compatibility to my xda-II offcourse,,
i'll said thanks if some one can give me any suggestion

you could just try pluggin the phone back into the cradle and connect it to usb, then just run the update program again, its normal for the update to fail the frist time or even twice. this happened to my phone. the first update fails and its stuck in boot loader, ignore the "cannot id device" that windows puts up.
also remember not to update on a pc running VISTA it wont work 100%, only, i repeat ONLY update on xp

How long does it take ?
Is something on the screen or are there any lights on ?
Are the files on the memory card visible in windows after writing the image on it ?
And to what filesystem should I format the memory card ?
FAT or FAT32?
Im trying to recover my xda with this image but with no results

PH 10D Alpine stuck in Simlock...HELP
HI mate, Please help me with this:
I have Alpine PH10D from Orange Uk
After I tried for weeks to buy the unlocking (sim) code from orange ,then I started trying all the software to unlock it. My laptop runs Vista ,so this could be the reason why,lots of programs from internet won,t work,xdadev,htcallunlock,xdasimlock,xdaunlock,htcmultiunlocker,lokiwiz,copier,etc...
so u can see I tried for weeks,and weeks
Finally, one of these got my HTC locked in Simlock mode ,I mean I kinda can restart, bootloader, reset etc ,and imediately after starting to boot-install,i get a screen saying,"Simlock,network locked,please enter network code"
In the background all the phone is normal but as soon as you try tapping"Start" or anything else, after 1 second that pop comes again ,again,again,again,again.....
The Interesting is The active sync (the active sync in vista is called"Windows mobile device manager" can connect to the phone...Obviousely U know u cannot delete those stupid files from the extended Rom ,they are REad Only, When u Right click on it, all what vista can get is, Run ,Run as Administrator,Properties"....no chance to delete or rename....them cab.
Again ,interesting, In bootloader, active sync cannot detect the phone ,but the phone does display "Serial V1.01" and then when u plug USB in laptop it says "USB"
Then press SOFTRESET again ,wait 10 sec..,ding...and STOP at that moment before it starts installing...! plug the USB into laptop ...active sync IS DETECTING it, The ROM is in a file called "Extended ROM"....OK .Is there a way to find the Simlock, file or cab, and delete it? the files are protected, cannot touch them,
If I cannot do anything ,I will try the old fashion...: stick it into the freezer a good 2-3 days.......ain't it funny?.... in fact the phone is now a vegetable, isn't it?
[email protected] for any further details ,pls mail

sounds great what about htc universal
Hi mike,
this sounds hopeful. Any idea about a HTC universal, will this work, are there differences?
Any reply would be greatly appreciated, as I am a bit getting desperate!
Greetings,
Curehead

Ok after an incident with a cup of coffee, my sound ceased working in phone, so, since everything else was working fine, and reading a load of threads on it I decided to downgrade back to the original ROM....
And I ended up stuck with that old 'Serial 1.01' message.
After reading more i downloaded mtty and got it to connect in USB, checked check the DOC, and as it was fine I was just going to download the restore files, when I noticed that the screen message had changed to 'USB'.....
So I started the Upgrade, and it found the Alpine, and worked fine!
So if you are stuck in bootloader, and you can connect with MTTY, run task 28 to check the DiskOnChip, if this is fine (no errors), then LEAVE IT IN THE CRADLE, check to see if 'USB' is showing on the screen, exit MTTY, and try upgrading again, hopefully it will work.
Happy New Year !!

Restore WM2003SE on Alpine; XDA IIi; qtek 2020i
I tried to upgrade my XDA IIi to WM6, being unaware that this was not possible, of course with the wrong updater, so I ended with cold brick.
After much pain and reading tons of nonsense and misleading or incomplete info written by people who have no idea of what they are talking about, I managed to revive it running the updater:

The device needs to be in BootLoader mode with the battery fully recharged.
How to Enter into BootLoader mode:
Press and hold the “Power” & “D” (navigation) buttons,
and then press the Reset Button until “Serial” shows on screen.
Plug device in the cradle. “Serial” will change to “USB”
Execute the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe from the above *.RAR archive

HTC Magic (proximus) stuck in RUU USB - MY SOLUTION with Goldcard

My HTC MAGIC (proximus) was semi-bricked after installing the wrong RUU.
- no reboot possible
- screen says RUU (when plugged in, RUU USB)
- can't find device with adb devices
- can find device with fastboot devices
- not possible to make goldcard, because no adb connection
- running new RUU didn't work either
Altough I think this method can be used for other phones I am still not responsible for damaging your phone!!
Because I'm a new member, I can't use links in my messages so change all hxxp to http.
Here is what I did:

I Tvntstm Gold Card to enter the commands you want, but after your order is not achieved any result please help me

this instrucktion doesn´t work.
has someone another idea, to repair our phones?

help me

just insert the SD card which is gold card done and run the RUU updater only?

It worked !
Hello All, i had the same problem than Radjagios: Semi bricked HTC magic after an official RUU update. The update failed because the Phone ID was not recognized as a valid one.
I used the goldcard solution from Radjagios (thanks again to him) but with some changes (which are here between ++++++++)
radjagios said:
My HTC MAGIC (proximus) was semi-bricked after installing the wrong RUU.
- no reboot possible
- screen says RUU (when plugged in, RUU USB)
- can't find device with adb devices
- can find device with fastboot devices
- not possible to make goldcard, because no adb connection
- running new RUU didn't work either
Altough I think this method can be used for other phones I am still not responsible for damaging your phone!!
Because I'm a new member, I can't use links in my messages so change all hxxp to http.
Here is what I did:

1. Create a Goldcard.:
- Find or buy an extra SD-card (not all are usefull for creating a goldcard, Kingston 2GB works for sure!)
++++++++++++++++
Worked too with my sandisk 2 GB Card (included with the phone when bought)
++++++++++++++++
- put your SD-card into the adapter and format it FAT32
- Download the Ubuntu live CD iso (Google it)
- burn this as an image to a CDR
- put your formatted SD-card in the adapter before restarting, mount it in computer's card-reader (card reader attached with USB will probably not work!)
++++++++++++++++
Indeed, USB card reader didn't worked well for me, i used an old laptop with built in SD card reader to obtain SD CID
++++++++++++++++
- put the Ubuntu CD in your computer and restart
- boot from CD (sometimes you need to press F11 on startup)
- computer will boot from Ubuntu-CD, choose your language and choose to try the software without installing it to your computer
- Ubuntu will start up, in Ubuntu choose Applications -> Accesoires -> Terminal
- In the terminal type hal-device | grep mmc.cid
- the terminal will show you the SD card's CID, write this number down and double check it! (long number!!)
++++++++++++++++
you also can copy the CID into a txt file that you'll save on an usb stick.. So when back on windows you just copy it again from the stick
++++++++++++++++
- If the terminal didn't show you the CID, you should try on another computer, I think it depends on the card-readers type.
- Shut down Ubuntu (right-upper corner)
- take out the Ubuntu-CD and restart computer
++++++++++++++++
In place of below just go to hxxp://hexrev.soaa.me/ copy your CID and click submit
the new cid number is ready to use ( no need to change 2 first numbers to 00)
- install PSAS free version hxxp://psas.revskills.de/?q=node/6
- install HxD Hex Editor hxxp://download.cnet.com/HxD-Hex-Editor/3000-2352_4-10891068.html?tag=mncol

- enter you emailadres
- paste the reversed number to the CID box and replace the first two digits with a zero "123456789" becomes "003456789"
++++++++++++++++
Just paste the number you obtained from site hxxp://hexrev.soaa.me/

- start HxD Hex Editor as an administrator (right click, "Run as administrator")

- go to edit -> select all again edit -> copy
- select the removable disk tab
- select offset 00000000 till/including offset 00000170
++++++++++++++++
You must have an 00000170 offset line on the sdcard. At first i didn't, i tried again and it appeared ???
++++++++++++++++
- go to edit -> paste write
- click on file -> save and exit the program
At the moment your SD card is a Goldcard.
If Goldcard doesnt work, try another SDcard. (Kingston 2GB works!)
++++++++++++++++
To use the goldcard:
put the sd into your HTC magic, connect it to your PC , boot the magic ( you still have the error "screen says RUU (when plugged in, RUU USB)"
Launch the RUU from your PC as usual and normally it will do the upgrade to the end without blocking.
++++++++++++++++
2. Download and run the correct RUU for your phone.
For my mobile I used RUU_Sapphire_HTC_Europe_3.05.401.3_release_signed_NoDriver
++++++++++++++++
Sthis RUU: works fine for me too there is no french france or french belgium available but french suisse works fine and have an azerty keyboard (strangely not in the first tutorial but after well)
you can find RUUs here

Easy way to create a goldcard
You can borrow a Samsung android phone (I test in Samsung Galaxy Y), place your SD Card (maybe 2Gb SD Card) into the phone - turn on USB DEBUGGING. (Do not mount the SD Card to the computer)
Download Goldcard Tool v0.05 (available in xda-developers - google searching) - Open Golcard Tool - Click Get CID - Copy the CID in the Get CID textbox - enter to the link in the Goldcard Tool - paste the CID - select goldcard type: Android - enter capcha - download/receive a Goldcard.img.
Mount the SD in the computer (USB connecting) - click refresh button in Goldcard Tool - Choose the SD Card
Click button "Load Goldcard.img" - choose the downloaded Goldcard.img - Click "Patch MMC" - Success!
My Goldcard was test with T-mobile Mytouch 3G 1,2, it worked like a charm and I could root it easily with Universal Androot.apk
A day, I changed Hboot SPL engineering ver 2010...Some thing wrong...My device turn into a dark screen...I still try to find a shop reparing it Hboot.
So, Using Goldcard sometimes is a Dangerous way! But it is the only way if you semi-brick your phone - no recovery, no fastboot

How to unbrick a Dell Venue Pro

The following steps should unbrick your Dell Venue pro in most cases (this will not unbrick your phone if you updated the touch screen firmware via the EM app). You can do this at your own risk. I strongly suggest calling or e-mailing Dell Mobility Support before doing this. If your phone is out of warranty, you replaced the SD card, or did something else really silly to it then this might be your only option. You will lose all data on your phone with this method. Your contacts should be backed up on Live/Hotmail/Facebook/Twitter/Etc. and your images on SkyDrive. Everything else will be wiped. You phone will be wiped back to Version 7704 (or what we had when the phone launched back in October of 2010).
The following instructions are for Windows-based machines. There might be a similar utility for Mac’s but I have no way to find out. You are on your own if you have a Mac.
Unplug your DVP, Remove the battery.
If you replaced your SD card (and voided the warranty in the process) please insert your stock SD card at this time. If you never touched your SD card then you can obviously skip this step.
If your phone already has the stock SD card in it, please wait 10 seconds, and put the battery back in. You may put the cover back on as well if you like.
Now we are going to enter the boot loader (this is how your bricked phone can receive the FFU file) by holding the volume down (-), camera, and then power buttons. DO NOT RELEASE THESE until you see the image of a phone, USB cable, and laptop.
Connect your Dell Venue Pro to your computer with the USB cable that came with the phone or one that has the same or higher specs. I have seen it take up to 10 minutes for the phone to be recognized by your computer. If after 10 minutes your phone hasn’t connected, try another USB port and/or cable.
While your computer is installing the drivers/connecting to your phone download the following file and extract it.
http://www.multiupload.com/5YT27EHLZV
VenuePro_flash_GLEOS2A_US_TMO_SIGNED_SWV0105_LP0030_RV001_RETAIL.zip (138.7 MB)
While this is downloading, close Zune if it is not already closed as it takes a few seconds for it to really unload from memory.
Once you think your phone has been connected, open up command prompt (you may need to start it in admin mode depending on your security settings) by typing “cmd” in the start menu or going start -> run and entering “cmd”.
Change directory to “C:\program files\zune\” by typing “cd C:\program files\zune\” and hitting enter
Then type “UpdateWp /list” and your phone should show up there. If it hasn’t be patient and read step 3 again.
If your phone is listed (it should be) and your download is done and extracted, copy the VenuePro_flash_GLEOS2A_US_TMO_SIGNED_SWV0105_LP0030_RV001_RETAIL.ffu file over to the” C:\program files\zune\” directory. You may wish to rename this file before copying it over to something shorter if you wish for the next part.
Now back in the command prompt window type “updatewp /ffu VenuePro_flash_GLEOS2A_US_TMO_SIGNED_SWV0105_LP0030_RV001_RETAIL.ffu”. If you did not rename the FFU file you can type Venue and then hit tab to auto complete the name otherwise enter the name of the FFU file you renamed.
Hit enter and DO NOT unplug the phone. This process can take anywhere between 60 seconds and 10 minutes.
This should work and bring you back to the stock state. If it does not you can retry this a few more times but if after 2 or 3 times it does not work then you need to contact Dell as your phone is royally screwed.
You can now re-open Zune, pair your device, and update all the way back to Mango (this could take up to an hour).

Now I wonder if there is a way to edit that ffu file ...

That would be nice

I have a question:
My phone told me:
So I tried many of my backup (first boot,Nodo and mango beta backup) to restore it and the ffu backup file but my phone boot in 20mins and no access to EM or any other application but I have an home screen...
Can you tell me if I try to replace my sd card and flash with the ffu i can retreive a working phone?
(Dell doesn't respond to my mails)

There are other threads already dedicated to replacing the sd card.

'Then type “UpdateWp /list” and your phone should show up there. If it hasn’t be patient and read step 3 again'
I tried entering that but it said 'updatewp /list' is not a recognized as an internal or external, operable program or batch file.' Is there something I'm doing wrong? I've tried it on two different laptops.
Please reply as soon as possible

This arises from a previous installation of Windows Phone Support Tool. You have to uninstall it and then install/reinstall the file found in this link http://www.megaupload.com/?d=PL7H6FKJ) and then I copied the files in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1262471 to the Zune Directory.
Hopefully that solves your problem.

Here I took a Zune http://www.megaupload.com/?d=KY8J8SIY

Hello!
DVP restored, upgraded to the latest version. But phone does not see MicroSD HC 32Gb Class 10. Before that, everything worked fine. Now available in 32 Gb only 400 Mb: (
Put on the stock card 8Gb Class 4 - worked. But ...
Several times already rolling away in 7004, updated again - anyway, just out of 32Gb 400Mb ...
EM Test says SD Card - not installing, but the DVP should not run without the card!
Please, help me again...

DVP really work without a memory card But I do not need. So it does not work 32Gb ...

Seems Megaupload site has been taken down by the US Gov
Any other links for the Venu Flash File

Sorry guys, I can't seem to find another version of the first link I listed. I deleted mine unless someone can reupload it. The only suggestion I have is to try and check this link (http://www.multiupload.com/EQK2RPH3P6) file for the 'updatewp.exe', which should install 'Windows Phone Engineer Flashing Tool'. Why oh why did they shut down Megaupload, when it also had its legitimate reasons as well. But I can't blame them or agree with what those Pro-SOPA and PIPA are trying to do. There are always two sides to every story I suppose.

what was the name of the file you said that has to be uninstalled / reinstalled
