Dead MDAIII ... help needed - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I tried to upgrade to 1.42 ...19 and my device goes dead ... after 6 hours of nervous waiting I put it from cradle and now it shows only red light when in craddle ...
i dont want to panic...but HEEEEELLLPPP :!: :!: :!: :roll: :wink:

There was something similar in the forums, but i do not remember the solution, so i will give you some things to perform.
do a hard reset (power button + reset) if it reboots, there is no problem, put it in bootloader mode (power button+reset+camera) and try to flash new rom again. if this does not work try this:

try this for whoever get stuck at boot screen or in bootloader mode
1. Download mtty v1.42 from http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/mtty1.42.rar
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
good luck.

try to just open ports ...forget usb

...
none of them work...
DAMN!!
my splashscreen appears, but it stays there... saying the versions and stuff. then stays there forever...
i just bought it last week... i'm really bad luck!

...
when i open the program it shows a window of "open port setting"
Then it shows port... baud... data bits... stop bits... parity... flow control... and local echo...
I don't have to change nothing?
Only the port?
sorry to bother u...
its just for this.. i won't bother u anymore! i mean it!!
do u have messenger?

i changed ports until i found one working .... Maybe I was pure lucky ... there was nothing sophisticated in my tring :roll:

The bootloader in Wizard is difrend, I don't know if this method will work for Wizard, maybe not

Press Power + record (above the volume slider) + softreset at the same time.
You should see a white screen with "Serial" text on it and the Bootloader version.
Put your device into the cradle
Make sure that the charger of your PDA is connected to the cradle.
The text should change to "USB" now. "------------------->>> this is not shown.....only Serial Apears....

mtty

Has anyone connected mtty to Diamond - if so a little help wouldn't go a miss
yes I do it daily
what exactly do you need or want to do?
LOL just sent you a PM before I read this

I used it a couple of times before on my Trinity - I am just doing research and a bit of self tuition
I am in Bootloader and no COM ports will connect to mtty.
Noobie I know but a little help would be great on getting the thing to connect - and yes have searched far and wide but to no avail.
Cheers
On Win XP:
- Activesync USB connection should be disabled (grey icon)
- Obviously, device must be in tri-colored bootloader mode (keep pressed volume down button + softreset with stylus)
- Should work with any mtty version.
On Vista (I haven't tried this myself, i don't have vista):
- Windows Mobile Device Center USB connections should be disabled
- Device must be in tri-colored bootloader mode (see above)
- If you have not installed the older XP usb drivers, you need the vista version of mtty
On Linux:
I yet don't know why the /dev/ttyUSB* device is not created for HTC Diamond, if anyone knows how to connect to Diamond's bootloader on linux let me know!
Thanks - had a version of MTTY with no USB option duh... Now lets start gathering some commands -
I just tried to use mtty but after I press enter, the application hang and then I've got the message Write Operation Failed.
Is there any settings that must be done in mtty ?
I use the vista version.
someone have an idea ?

Connect the phone to your PC and run MTTY.exe. Choose USB connection. When connection is established, type the command "set 16 0". Manually soft reset with stylus. That will load the OS.

I agree. Copy the ROM of your choice to the root of your storage card if you have one. Rename it RHODIMG.nbh. Boot the bootloader screen by holding down the volume down button and the power button. It should flash from the MicroSD card.

Flashing Via MicroSD Card
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the Rhodium Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh
4. Copy the RHODIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
6. Enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update
8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.

It's self explanatory.
Download MTTY.exe.
Connect the phone to your PC using the USB cable.
Run MTTY.exe.
In MTTY, change Port to USB, not one of the COM ports. Click Okay.
Type in the command "set 16 0". Enter.
Reset the phone with the sylus.
Not sure how this is different than my initial post.
Installing a stock ROM with your PC connection will usually get rid of any boot problems too.

Normally when the phone is off it can charge the battery. Don't try to turn the phone on while charging maybe.

Are you connected to the wall or your PC?
You can buy a battery, flash the phone, then return the battery.

More information would be helpful. A picture of your bootloader screen or a transcription of all your bootloader text would be useful in determining the problem.
Here is the bootloader

Hi guys do u think this is a hardware problem because the phone don't charge or connect via usb so it maybe a faulty usb port causing the phone to go straight to bootloader mode. The computer is making the noise when something is plugged in & then u get the message usb device unrecognized & just not charging or connecting.
Hi everyone I got past the bootloader loop but the phone still won't charge or connect to the computer so I am charging the battery through a battery wall charger I bought from ebay I think I will have to replace the usb port don't have a warranty anymore due to water damage I have no idea how the sticker turned red. So I will pay to fix it & see if it will charge and sync again.
Just restarted the phone and yeah it went straight back 2 the bootloader loop

Need assistance please

Hi,
I have a Rhodium and so far I have successfully flashed a lot of Roms untill today...
I am trying to flash another Rom via ActiveSync, so I have connected my phone to my PC, than run the CustomRuu.exe like always, but I am stuck at 0%.
I decided to flash using the SDCard and renamed the ruu_signed.nbh to RHODIMG.nbh and than I´ve enter in the BootLoader Mode, the device tries to load the Rom, but I´ve got a white screen saying "loading..." and stays like this forever.
I cannot even HardSPL the device. I run the Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.exe but i can not get the device properly synced.
I though I had an internal memory problem so I´ve formated it using a new tool found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...12&postcount=1.
But now I´ve lost everything and I can not flash any Rom with activesync, always the same problem, stuck at 0% and then the message - "Error [276] : update error.", and if I flash from SDcard a white screen saying "loading..." and stays like this forever.
EDIT:
Can not HardSPL automatic flash, because could not get the device properly synced.
Can not HardSPL with Manual flash, stuck at 0% and then the message - "Error [276] : update error.#
Any help please.
Thanks

Then I assume you already have hard-spl on your device installed. So trying to install it again will fail.
*Go into BootLoader Mode (do a Soft Reset while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. Keep holding the "volume down" key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it) and verify the screen shows 0.85.OliNex, which is the HardSPL version* Is this the hard-spl version that you have?
You didn't mention which rom you tryed to flash. Did you try other roms?

Thanks for your reply,
Yes , you are right I have already HardSPL installed - SPL-0.85.0linex.
I have tried several Roms even the Rhodium stock Rom. If I flash via activesync I get stuck at 0% and if I flash from the SDCard (RHODIMG.nbh) I get a white screen saying "loading...." with no action.
This is strange as I´ve flash so many roms so far
Have you reset both your device and computer before connecting?
Just leave it in Bootloader mode and connect it to your computer and then try flashing.
As long as you put the device in bootloader mode, you do not have to get it to sync. I've done this many times when a flash didn't go right for some reason (like I forgot something when I cooked it ).

I did both things with no luck.
I have put the device in bootloader mode connected to the computer then I´ve run the customRUU.exe but I am always stuck at 0%
This is the info I have in the tricolor screen:

I had the same thought and I have used a different cable but the results are the same.
just my 2 cents i have done it before try to uninstall the driver from computer when you are in tri-color mode in the device manager then unplug the usb and replug in the same usb port if doesnt work try other usb port

I would try this first as posted by jeanrivera.
Also maybe you're customruu is somehow broken? Try downloading a new one. Also I don't know if it helps but when you flash via customruu do you have the image named ruu_signed.nbh? I don't know if it matters what kind of name it has, but it's just a thought

try to hard reset the device , this is her guide HTC Alpine hard reset
To perform a full reset
A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data, and restores the Pocket PC Phone to its default settings. Programs installed at the factory remain. All data that you have created and programs you have installed are erased.
Press and hold the Power button, and then use your stylus to press the “soft reset button” at the same time, as shown below. Be sure you have backed up all your data on an SD card or on a desktop PC before performing a full reset. after you hard reset the device, connect to a USB sync and you Flash Room again All you have to remember, allow usb connection .... and not disabled its usb connection Okey ​if you still have problems you can contact me​
Do i need to go into bootloader mode first before flashing?? Cause what i did was, connect it the comp, and while it is stil connected with windows mobile device centre and the phone is still in windows mobile desktop, then i run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, and halfway upgrading, it just turn off n go back to bootloader mode...and then after that, it auto black out after each autoconfiguration.
And by Flash Rom, do you mean just run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe with all the files in it?? or there is something else i should do???
Sorry for my ignorance And ur guidance will be very much appreaciated!!!!

EnterBL.exe should reboot the device into bootloader only, Activesync should disable then. You can access bootloader manually, it's more safe
Now i managed to get into bootloader mode and upgrade it.. but the upgrade hangs halfway, the progress stays at 0% and saying it's upgrading radio, but always failed. What's should i do pls?

remove the battery from the device and wait until 10 minutes, then plug it in again and make sure your device go to the bootloader to reflash
next time before you perform the upgrade whether you've unlock device ??
