I have a I-mate PDA2K with ROM 1.12 ITA and while I was to install the 1.40 ITA ROM downloaded from www.clubimate.com, the screen of my pocket pc became black, active sync has closed and the program to update the ROM is remained blocked in checking the hardware.
Now the pocket pc present only the notice "Serial v. 2.06" and do not respond if I press the on/off button.
How can I reinstall the system with the old ROM or the new ROM???
Active Sync does not see the pda2k.
Please, help me!!!!!
Thanks and sorry for my english.
Best regards,
Enrico.
did the flash fail halfway through? if it never started you should be able to just reset it and be back to normal.. try to put it into bootloader manually "power+record+reset" and you'll get the serial 2.07 screen, then dock it in your crable and it should say USB 2.07 and your PC recognize it.. run the flash again
No, I have pressed "power + record + reset" and inserted the pda2k in the craddle, but the notice is "serial v2.06" and not appear "usb v2.06" adn the program to flash the rom notice "Error 101: connection error" because not see the device.
Have you ever changed the Sync Cable? There would be some probs with your cable!!!
I tried to remove and then replace the battery and I inserted the pda2k in the cradle. Now the notice is "USB v2.06", I tried to reinstall the ROM tonight but the program is remained blocked with the notice "checking the information on your device" for all the night and the Active Sync crashed. Today I detached the device and the "error 101: connection error" appear.
How can I install the ROM directly?
I'm having the same problem
The cradle is ok for sure
but no connection to activesync
help is needed
Best regards

WOW ... WOW ... WOW ... WOW
I resolved my problem!!!!!
I noted that the file downloaded from the original website clubimate is composed from varied file inside.
One of these is for checking hardware device and one of these is for upgrade the device.
But the file downloaded is an executable file complete and when I executed this, the program was blocked during the checking.
Now I think that if I unpack the exe file with winzip in a directory and I execute the only file to upgrade the ROM, I avoid to do the check of the pda2k and maybe it function.
This is the solution.
The upgrade started and now I have my pda2k like first one.
I hope it is of help for other.
Bye and thanks at all.

I have tried to install the firmware update to my SPV M2000 from the Orange web site, it now displays a white screen with USB at the top and v2.07 at the bottom when docked in the usb cradle. It displays serial when undocked. The device is recognised when attached via the usb so it is communicating with the laptop. I have tried several times to continue the update - RUU_V2.5_ORANGEUK_V5.40.1.179_SHIP and it always stops on error 101 not communicating with PC. If I use MAUpgrade_noID then I get ROM Upgrade utility error, not designed for your device. I am able to synchronise another SPV M2000 using the same cradle and laptop with no problem comunicating.
I have tried to download an image from clubmate but cannot register as I do not have an Imate device. Any advice or pointers gratefully received.
I think you just tried to flash ROM that is for differetnt device: There was no (and there will ne no) official WM5 ROM for BlueAngel. Experiments with MAUpgrade_noID were very dangerous. But if device still shows Serial/USB, you might be able to repair the damage.
Download any normal, proper ROM for BlueAngel and flash it. but it must be for BlueAngel, not for other deivces. Information on WM5 flashing procedure and links to ROMs you can find on Wiki. There is WM6 also available for BA.
I try to upgrade my i-mate PDA2K (italian) with Helmi Windows Mobile 6 Profesional R0 ...
The program started, recognize my PDA:
Your device software is about to be update from :

is outside of network coverage. So, all your calls will be diverted
to your Answer Phone, and any messages will be delivered

Please click Update to continue.

After then, remain stucked on:

Please don't disconnect your device from your PC or

PDA is off, nothing happen... I was wait about 1/2 hour and then I take my PDA from cradle...
Nothing happen...
Now, the only thing I see is SERIAL (top of screen when out of cradle and USB when I put the PDA on cradle) and v2.06 (down to screen).
Try to reset, hard reset... nothing...
Can anyone help an moron like me ??? (I'm reaaly moron, not practice with the PDA's)
(I use Vista Business, I update Windows Media Device Center before this...)
Regards...
read wiki?
Did you follow the steps as indicated in the wiki? As you upgrade from 2003:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM6_WizzardUpgrade1_WM2003SE0
See next page for Vista related issues...
Read and good luck!
Yes, I follow that steps...
The problem now is: I cannot acces my PDA, I can't revive it...
How can do that ?
Thanks...
Hi, You say:
Now, the only thing I see is SERIAL (top of screen when out of cradle and USB when I put the PDA on cradle) and v2.06 (down to screen).
Well i guess this is the bootloader, so when you connect the phone to the cradle you can upgrade??
Success
As MuratNL says: you are in bootloader. Connect the cradle (with PDA) to your PC (SERIAL changes to USB). Now execute the rom upgrade file from your PC and upgrade should begin.
If you have problems with connection and Vista read wiki (see above link) or try the upgrade from a WinXP machine...
I try this, but nothing happen.... Tonight I try with an XP Pc...
OK, I follow the guide posted by bins and everything goes OK...
(The I put an Italian ROM [ WM6 ] and run perfectly)
Thanks
Just a quick note:
i've experienced that thing so many times
that it's safe to say that:
IF the rom copying aint started yet, meaning YOU DONT SEE the % screen...
and if you've been waiting for that to appear so long...
and you're stuck at the:
Checking the information on your device ... Please wait ...
Please don't disconnect your device from your PC or
the power supply until the update is completed.

you can disconnect the BA to the cradle withouth harming the BA.
1. you can disconnect/takeoff the BA from the cable
2. on pc, terminate the upgrade process
(taskmanager terminate the RUU - "MaUpgradeUt_NoID.exe")
3. reconnect your BA still on "Serial/USB" screen
4. restart your RUU again...
that would work flawlessly. trust me. i can vouch for that.
unless you saw the Rom Copy % Screen...

I was performing the radio update on my MDAIII and now he hangs in the bootloader with USB in the upper middle und 2.08 in the under middle. All resets won`t bring it back to life. If I try to reinstall the update all I get is a blank message screen (update from version to version) in my Vista. How can I get out of there.
I did everything what was stated here
The original BAUpgradeUT won`t find my device. The MAUpgradeUt_noID.exe gives me the blank screen with the update from to screen.

I'm using a Vista PC.
After the Radio update to 1.15 the error described above is not to go away yet.
What to do, I'm nearly in tears.
Finally I got it back but with an old Romupdate from T-Online. Is there someone who got the QTC 9090 update (latest one)
That was fast..
im glad you solved your problem.
i think someone here has it.
just post what you need and make it as a title for others to read in the digest.
Im not a expert but is vista the problem??
Most likely.
Failed MDA II flash with vista notebook
Hello everybody,
I just read this thread in hope to find a solution for my problem, which is quite similar to the one described here initially.
I got a used MDA III with T_Mobile ROM. Since I'm a customer with O2, I wanted to change the ROM to O2 as well. I followed the directions given in an other thread here (don't have the link just now) and during the flashing, the flash application suddenly had no connection to my MDA III anymore. It was securely settled in its craddle an connected to my laptop via USB. Now my MDA III is stuck in Bootloader Mode with USB v2.07 displayed on the screen.
Each retry of installing either the O2 or the T_Mobile ROM now meet with the error 101: no connection. I read here that you managed to update successfully with a vista pc. Thus I wanted to ask, how you did that since I just don't seem to find the reason for the connection failing each time.
Here is what i tried to establish connection so far:
* disabled virus scanner & firewall
* unplugged the mda III and plugged it in again. It was recognized as a new device but that didn't help the connection issue
Could you please post what you did to make the update work under vista? Help would be greatly appreciated

Try on computer with Windows XP and kill activesynk (wcecomm.exe on taskmanager/processes)
Maybe it will work. If u cant flash O2 ROM try to use "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe". On my Qtek 9090 allways flash using this APPS and allways work.
U can try too format device first, put it on candle and use "mtty1.42.exe". On XP, kill active sync, and open mtty1.42.exe and select port USB and put OK. Do "Enter" on command and should appear USB>. After this write Task 28. This will format all your PC. Try install SO after this. This command delete all files on PPC. I have attach files that you maybe need.
thankfor the tipp and sorry for my late reply. Since I have no XP PC available i tried the mtty1.42.exe on my vista notebook. When i run it however, it only lists com port 1-3, no usb port. Do i have to make a special configuration on vista for it to work?
Thanks in advance,

In vista i dont know...sorry for my late reply too.... in XP u must kill ActiveSync process called wincecom.exe. in vista, maybe u have to kill the Windows Mobile Device Center....i dont know...
Dont forget, put the Qtek 9090 in Boot Loader Mode (Pressing Power Button + Record Button + Reset), maybe will appear USB and u can format the device.
If this does not work, try on Windows XP....Find a friend with Windows XP and ask him to use his PC only to do that.
Maybe somebody in forum have the Windows Vista and can help u....
Sorry my terrible english....

Try this
Downlaod the XDA IIs .exe file and run it - no need to put into USB mode
http://www.o2online.ie/wps/wcm/conn...es+&+accessories/Xda+Range/Software+upgrades/
this should reset to factory default (o2)

Hi, I've an Ba with WM6.5 in it. But when I want to reflash it, the BA wasn't detected by my computer. I've put it into the bootloader mode, but it just shows Serial, even I've waiting for almost 2 hours. But when I boot the OS, it can connected to the PC via ActiveSync. What's going on here?? Is my BA or my cradle broken??
are you running XP if so open CTRL ALT DEL then look for wscesscom or somthing and end task and then WcessMgr OR somthing and end task and try
You should see Troubleshooting in the WIKI ~ http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/ActiveSync
I've done all of that, but still not working. I think it's not in the activesync, because I can connect my BA to the PC, the problem looks like in the bootloader mode.... It just standing there shows "serial" and "V2.07", even I've connect it to the USB port... Any ideas??
Is there are any possibility I can repair my bootloader (if it's really broken)??, or Can I reflash my BA with other way around?? Without using the bootloader maybe??
UPDATE:
Later, I think I began to recognize the problem...
In every tutorial for Win7 that I read (this tutorial and d-two's tutorial), I was ask to update the driver of "Microsoft USB Sync". But in my case, that "Microsoft USB Sync" wasn't shown. I think it's because I haven't sync my BA with the PC yet (I've just reinstall my Windows, so all of the setting is gone). If you sync your BA, you will get the "Microsoft USB Sync" on your device manager.
But now, the problem is, I can't sync my BA with the PC, because of error in my PIM (Contact, Calendar, Task, Phone, Messages, etc). I only able to explore my devices through ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Center, not synchronize it. Even my ActiveSync/WMDC shows an error on the connection. So, I can't update/install the driver for "Microsoft USB Sync", because my BA have an error connection with the PC. Any ideas to solve it??
And would cloning method worked for my devices?? I mean, I get a cloning from another BA, install it in my BA, and then repeat the reflash process with my preferred ROM??
Please, need help over here....
try a hard reset
