How you like your Fried XDA 2? Sunny Side Up?

Hello,
I was today handed a fried XDA 2.
My boss had attemted to flash it and it failed for whatever reason.
Now i will say from the outset that i have only ever flashed my XDA1 with a XDA-Developers ROM and it was a breeze.
The ROM file HE flashed with was called.
Xda_II_Upgrade_v16050.exe
Now when you switch the thing on.. all you get is a a small amount of txt saying
'Serial'
'v1.06'
and nothing else..
What have i done? Well i have sifted through the articles on here.. and found this rom
XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
I have installed this on an SD card using xdatools.. WHOLESALE.. i.e. no moding of the files...
I have looked at 'http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/HimalayaRomFlashing'
but as i can boot into the device.. i cant get the info it requires.
I am open to any and all help. And I'll even buy you a pint!
I am really at a lose.
Thanks in advance Guys and Girls.
It may not be as bad as you think.
It is in bootloader mode - currently in Serial mode and if you put it in a cradle connected to a PC (with ActiveSync installed) the bootloader should change to USB v 1.06. From this point you should be able to load a normal ROM from the manufacturer.
I have an i-mate, so am not sure what the current ROM version for the XDA II is, but I'm sure others will chime in with this information.
I upgraded to this version, not knowing I already had this loaded. You need to check the extROM version before upgrading as this appears to be way the official upgrades seem to change.
I had no problems and it was done through the Active Sync process
The file can be found here if you haven't already got it... http://www.my-xda.com/downloads.html
Try it again. It does take about 90 mins.
Regards
Nope... Nadda... Zip... Zilch.
Roit...
When i dock the pesky thing in the USB craddle.. it does display USB and v.1.06.
Activesync shows NO sign of knowing the XDA is there.
The ROM found at http://www.my-xda.com/downloads.html as suggested by flintanis fails with a ERROR 100: MODEL ID ERROR.
BRosenow what do you mean by 'load a normal ROM form the manufacturer' is that not what i have just tried?
Once again a pint for all contributors.. and my first born to the dude with the solution.
Cheers.
ActriveSync won't activate because it's in Boot loader mode but you can download the latest ROM Update from the manufacturer or cellphone service provider and load that to flash the ROM and complete the process.
If it's a UK XDAII, get the update at www.my-xda.com .
It appears the previous user tried to flash it with a ROM from another manufacturer (Q-Tek/MDA II/i-mate). You are now receiving a Model/Country ID error. I have not experienced this myself, but I have read posts in this forum on how to fix it. Do a search and I bet you will find it.
- OR - any user who has experienced this and successfully flashed his ROM could chime in here and give jonathh some advice . . .
After much ado about nothing..
i have returned to again fix this XDA2 (the joys of pesky FT employment; make your minds up guys.. you want this XDA2 fixed or not?)
Right i *think* with quite a high level of certainty that the XDA2 currently in my grubby mitts was purchased in Malaysia/Sinapore.
Now.. am i correct in that flashing it Xda_II_Upgrade_v16050.exe from http://www.my-xda.com/downloads.html
Would cuase the problem i have now.. or at the very least wont go on on the XDA2 now because it is a UK ROM and a Malaysia XDA2?
I have flicked thru the pages on here.. and i cant seen to see how to solve this!!
PPllleeasseee help
*sobs, and gently rocks back and fourth*
I think there is a bit of confusion going on in this post!
The first ROM you tried (XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe) is for XDA1 - NOT XDA2.
The best place to get the latest UK XDA2 ROM is http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIRom.htm
and i *believe* that the place to download the Malaysia ROM is
http://www.myxda.com/XdaII/serviceandsupport/template/XdaIISoftwareUpgrade.vm (note the absence of the '-' between my and xda...this is the Asian O2 website)
See if the ROM from either of those sites will install
Hope that helps!
How about scrambled?
Ok, thanks 'pope'
*none* of the roms suggest work..
Xda_II_Upgrade_v16050.exe reports unknown country code..
and the recently suggested
Xda_II_LaunchROM_v10311.exe just sticks on the 'checking for information' left it for over an hour! BUT doesn't report unknown country code like the other one.
I cant get the XDA2 rom from the Asia site, as after i registerd my XDA2 it reports i dont need the damn update... anyone got it already?
I have extracted the core files from both these exe's and tried to copy them to an SD card(the NBF fille) using XDAtools.. and xdatools report the files are invalid.
I am lost and clueless!
HHHEEELLLPPPPP
Well that didn't work...
I got my grimmy grits on another XDA2 and using XDAtools sucked the ROM off of that.. and then.. again using XDAtools squirtted it out onto an SD card..
But i am unsure what i have to do then? is this latest approach possible??
Comments welcome![/code]
Love to help… but
My UK O2 XDA II has exactly the same problem. I died whilst flashing the UK O2 1.60 ROM, and now I can't do anything with it. Identical symptoms. Identical complete lack of success (eight hours and counting).
How can I find out the country ID of my device when my XDAII is dead?

O2 will fix this for you if it happened as a result of flashing with their rom.
By they way, in case anyone was concerned when I said " I died whilst flashing the UK ROM", I did of course mean "it died..." ;-)
But I have solved my own problem! How come you can spend hours trying to find a solution, and as soon as you ask for help, you sort it out straight away??!!
I hope this works for you if you're still struggling.
1) Download the latest i_Mate ROM from http://www.clubimate.com/Support/RUU172126WWE_imate.exe
2) Download the XDAII Rom Editor from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/ER2003Edit_1_2_20.msi
3) Extract the files from the IMate ROM, and use the ROM Editor to change the Operator to 02. Get the instructions here and the password here
4) Flash the ROM as normal. It worked for me You could experiment with using the O2 extended ROM files rather than the T-Mobile ones, but I was just glad to get the thing working. Perhaps I'll feel braver later.
I did feel braver, and copied the O2 Cabs into the IMate Extended ROM file. Then I deleted the IMate cabs I didn't want, modified config.txt and prayed! Everything seems to have gone fine, and I'm now re-installing all the software. Already there seems to be a significant speed increase over 1.60.
I'd recommend taking this step before you flash the ROM, rather than doing it twice like I did.
mark8barnes is the man!
I didn't do the mods.. just as per your original post.. and it worked!! Yay
Thanks mate you da man!
Now i do have a query tho.. if i did suck the rom off using XDATools.. how would i get it bck on again?
Cheers all you guys..
Fried XDA
Hello Mark
Me too, I flashed my ROM with the UK version with the same result.
The link to the iMate ROM no longer exists, can you help me please. I'm a real novice at this.
Thank you

Thanks a lot.
Try using a rom that is for your device for all others will turn your phone into a paper wheight as you have noticed.
you need to download a rom that is from your carrier and start again.
Wiki
thanx but my problem that i can't connect my pda2k on the cardl!!!the sync can't find it
any one can help me - - there is no service center in france!!
Download a rom that is from your carrirer and your device, ( You say its a I-mate) you also say you are in france and I know of no frensh roms.
As you are stuck in bootloader, run the ship.exe as is, it should find the device.
Look nobody can help you if you tell us nothing. What do you mean by card. Have you read anything in wiki ?

We really need more info. This is like asking to a mechanic: My car is broken, can you replace the engine...
So: What PDA do you have, what ROM versions installed, what version did you try to install, etc. etc.
But more importantly, have you read wiki?
Follow the link in my sig...it's all there.
i tried to install o2 rom 1.31 and previously there was 1.06. bootloader is v 2.06. now when i switch it on it is in serial mode. i hav tried to install shiped roms but no one detects my pda on sysncronous. i hav tried to use mda III rom using sd card but it says section 3 upgrade not alowed. tried o2 himaliye nb1 file it says trying himaliya upgrade on blueangle not alowed. this means i need nb1 file of XDA IIs. thanks

XDA IIs rom needed NB1

Isn't there anybody who can give me his xda IIs rom image. i am stuck in bootloader and cant syncronise with pc so the only way i can make it working is using sd card method. so help me to dump some xdaIIs image on sd card.
thanks
No need for that.
Search the forum or see FAQ in wiki.
i hav read everything and its now 3 weeks. i hav tried the ship roms aswell but nothing can detect my xda IIs.when i put it on cradle it changes serial to usb but still not detected my pc. ship rom gives error 101 connection error. i hav tried mda III rom using sd card but getting section 3 upgrade not allowed. means i need xda to sd rom
plzzzzzzz help meeee

Bricked Vodafone Kaiser ... HELP!

Hey Chaps,
Just thought earlier today i'd have a go at upgrading my phone with the new HTC firmware for my Vodafone Kaiser. First i tried it on it's own only to find the 'vendor' had blocked the upgrade, then i ran the HARDSPL software, when it rebooted my phone to the tri-colour screen i stopped pressing enter on the batch file and ran the HTC upgrade again! ... success - sort of; the upgrade got to 15% and stopped with a connection error (my usb's dodgy i think), then when the phone rebooted to the tri-colour boot loader it'd a) no longer accept the HTC Rom (vendor thing again) and b) become irritatingly broken.
Is it possible to flash an older vodafone rom to the device? if so, where can i find such a beast. Or does anyone know of any devilish ways to put the new rom on using the bog standard bootloader?
Thanks in advance big time to any clever phone experts who can de-brick my... er... brick
Dan.
your supposed to install hardspl before upgrading it if you try it on its own it will brick it at least thats what i heard from the stickies
azazelx, he has hardSPL installed, anyway.
@JimmyJangle: flash via microSD card. [url="http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=KaiserSDFlash" URL]Read here.[/url]
You need winrar to extract file nbh from the shipped ROM.exe.
Hmm, i don't think i do have HardSPL actually installed,
When i saw the tricolour screen come up with different version information I stopped that batch file that was installing HARDSPL (impatiently) and started the HTC one (which failed at 15%). So now i (think) i have a phone with no firmware and the bootloader says:
KAIS130
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD=8
I reckon if i can find a vodafone made rom the bootloader'll let me install it.
Any idea where i could find one?
What is ur orginal shipped ROM?
Your solution now is flash back the orginal ROM by using microSD card method I mentioned above, install HardSPL succesfully, then flash whatever ROM you prefer.
Hey Nghiem,
Thanks for the help, that link doesn't go anywhere though.
Also, wouldn't i need the original rom from somewhere in order to do that?
Thanks,
Dan
where did you buy the phone e.g vodafone, orange, etc...so I can tell you the original ROM? Because you phone CID is not unlock, hence you must flash the back the shippied one.
Get the WM 6.1 Vodaphone official here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365058
Hi,
I got the phone from Vodafone in the UK.
It had WM5 on it... erm, that's it.
I've just beem trying to load original voda roms back on to it but it's not happy - i don't know if they really are the originals though, one says 'reconstructed'.
Dan
Actually, that was the rom i tried and it came up with the Vendor ID error.
Dan.
Link on post #6 is the official not reconstructed. How about download directly from Vodafone website? It's strange when you have carrier ID block even with its ROM. Also, try reconstructed ROM listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1586817&postcount=2
Search for mtty, see if it can help you out.
MTTY saved the day!
Only 3 hours of my life lost!
Thanks,
Dan
Cheers. Don't forget to flash HardSPL and read the wiki before doing anything.

Stuck on 4color Screen/Killed my BA?

Hi everybody,
im afraid i have killed my german XDA III from o2 (HTC BlueAngel).
I just tried to instal WiMo6.5 on it...but i think it was a mistake, cause it has never seen any update since 2005.
Now im stucked at the 4color screen. It just shows me R 1.10.00. Nothin more...and i could get into the Bootloader by pressing Windows Media + Record.
I already tried to update the Radio to 1.15.00...but it always says the new radio-version isn designed for my XDA III.
So i would try to bring a runnin win2003 back on the XDA III, but i could find any working version of win2003 :-( found a dutch one, but it didnt work...country error...
So i need some help with this...i just dont want to throw it into the garbage :-(
ok, just tried it with the latest version from o2...got a model id error...damn it...
edit:
ok, got the latest version of the o2 ROM...but still noch way to update the Radio to 1.15.00...
ok, sounds like a bad flash, if you can get into bootloader all is not lost, just flash another WinMo onto it, Helmi wm6 is a good one, thats the one i have got.
ok
first after WM5/6/6.1/6.5 upgrade you must perform hard reset like is described here
a lot of shipped roms can be found in my signature - i also have original GER XDAIII roms
for radio and rom upgrade you can use MAUpgradeUT_NOID - also in the page in my signature
