Solved: Help, ExtROM gone - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

Hi,
I tried to make an update on my VPAIII with the software from vodafone. I got stuck in the bootloader, so I tried as described in the following topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=51147
My problem now is, that the ExtROM is gone! I tried to make an update again, but I got stuck in the following screen:
"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" and thats it.
Can anyone please help?
Thank you

Problem Updating the XDAIIs New Rom

Dear All
I would like to have some urgent help on this one. I have downloaded the new Rom Update for my XDAIIs. I have successfully started the ROM update. I reached the screen when it prompted me with the device information and I clicked on UPDATE to start the process. My XDA screen went to Black with the USB indication ...and v2.06 indicated below. Nothing happened and the wizard did not proceed with any further indication except "Checking the information in your device ..." etc...It froze on this and I had to restart my PC. Now my XDAIIs is remaining on the same blacked out screen and won't boot to its previous room if I do a soft or hard reset. Have I "Killed" my XDAIIs? Is there anything I did wrong? Pls HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks
Ashraf
No Problem..
1. Do a soft reset (the screen will just blik once and still remain blank)
2. Put the device in cradle/USB
3. ReDo your upgrading procedure by double clicking the upgrade file
It should work then... good luck

Guys,
I have the same problem only a little more stupidity on my part, check it out at - http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=130797#130797

Thanks pal !
I've been able to sort out the problem. I actually needed to stop the Active Sync application on my PC so that the upgrade wizard could connect to the XDAIIs via USB and perform the update. It will not work if the Active Sync task is still running as a process.
After running the app again, the upgrade worked seamlessly without any glitch...!!!
Thanks for your support.

please help! problem after updating rom

i have upgraded my k-jam with the
"MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224a_AKU23_WWE"
after the update the device is running very slow, usb is not functioning at all, yellow led doesnt lid, no chargeing.
when i'm entering the "power settings" it sais "main battery: unknown"
now i cant run the rom update again because the usb is no working.
Please help!
now i learnd how to use the bootloader and i updated to a different rom:
"Cingular_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE"
and the problem remains.
please help
What was the original ipl and spl version on the phone before updating?
I had the exact same problem as you see and I upgraded to the latest Cingular official release by installing through the bootloader. Maybe you can try that, unless there is something in the MR. clean release you really need?
Hi
I solved the problem myself by downgrading to an old rom and unlocking
The CID.
And then upgraded again.
If anyone needs an explanation please feel free to ask.
thank you all

xda IIi problem

Hi
I attempted to download the XDA IIi (v1.11.171) software update and during installation the software update was interrupted by my computer rebooting. Now my XDA does not boot and all it displays is "Serial V.1.01". I have tried a hard reset but it still does not boot.
I would appreciate any suggestions you could advise on how I can recover from this situation.
Thanks
you go to bootloadder and uprom again
goog luck
It doesn't sync with the pc anymore though.
Won't sync, but if you plug it in, and see the screen on the pda change to something like USB, it's connected.
It's connected, but when i go to update, it says country id error.
find this file at the ftp "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" and use it to upgrade
I fixed the problem by reflashing the rom using the ma_upgradeUt.
Thanks to everyone that helped

I'm in the same boat...
I think I'm in the process of reflashing the ROM.
I have a message, " Checking the information on your device, Please Wait"
how long should this whole process take?
Thanks
Time for an update
I waited 45 minutes for the ROM to update. It never got out of the "Checking the information on your device, Please Wait" mode. I have a bad feeling...
Its my guess that when its in the SERIAL screen and USB screen when plugged in to the Computer that its in Bootloader Mode. Is there a way to get it to load a new ROM? Or, am I trying to revive a "brick."
Thanks to all that help or explain my situation to me.

you have to quit the installer program from task manager, then rerun it, i had to do this with both my xda2 and xda2i it hangs, make sure you dont remove your phone from the cradle or out of boot loader mode.
the second time the program runs it will not find any existing info and just install the OS, it takes about 30 mins
A Little More Info, Please

Error 246 Device not responding

I'd bought my htc p3600 pro (black, free from sim-lock & free from any carrier) from London.
As advised by TRINITYGUIDES.INFO site I tried to do HardSPL with all the three available HardSPL files, but of no avail.
When the HardSPL's progress bar comes(on pc) it gives a message on my phone " Enterbootloader.exe....This may harm your device...Do you want to continue.." I pressed yes & the process stopped & gave an error on pc "Error 246 Device not responding" & on phone screen showed the bootloader with
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
I did soft reset on my p3600 & its working as usual with it original spl infos.
I want to put official WM6 SEA version(ROM+RADIO) on my phone...Please help.
I too have the same message when I try to upgrade to hard spl as per teh guide here: http://trinityguides.info/index.php...ask=view&id=25&Itemid=66&limit=1&limitstart=2
Can anyone help? I have tried updating active synch... could there be anything else?
I have flashed my rom befroe to unlock the GPS but I now want to upgrade to WM6.
I guess the hard spl is a failsafe and I can skip this step?
Thanks

Have the same [Error 246]! How can I definitly fix it?
Hi,
first of all, sorry for my poor English. I try to explain my problem so good I can... I hope you can help me.
I have the "[Error 246] Device not responding" problem.
I have used a lot the "search"-function and I have found a lot of posts which propose the same solution "restart the Rom upgrade another time". Ok I did it and my PDA works very well, but now I would like to solve the problem radicaly... How can I solve this problem? Should I use SPLexploit (I have found the guide on trinityguides.info) and then reflash a Hard-Spl?
Thx a lot
ciao
Tompo
Some specifications....
Sorry.... I have a P3600 White with Olipro 1.20 and rom Elias 1.9 SE Lite...

Before flash manually enter bootloader. After start the rom update utility. (As www.trinityguides.info suggest). You will not get error 246 any more

Is this the only solution? If is so, then everbody has this problem, isn't so?

Here is written to flash rom you should manually enter to bootoader. In this case, you will not have error 246.
Most of the people know this, so they have not this problem
Those who not manually enter bootloader can get error 246, and this way of flashing is not as safe as the manual bootloader way.
(because in this case you use the spl uploaded by RUU, not the hard-spl on the PDA)
Ok, now I really understand
Ok, this is a very good anwser, short and clear... thanks...

Hi Me has the trinity 3600 as a VPA GPS vodafone branding, and i get the same error message trying to run the bootloader and entering tricolor screen, ---> error 246 aber manually starting into bootlaoder and restatrting the romupdateutil.exe same error 260 no connention...
So you guys have a working version of the updating ?
And please remove all the links which are not working, linking a solve for the 246 problem, there are nomore links available...
thanks
Dome
I found a way to solve the problem 246 go in you mobile device, -->start -> settings-> connections ->USB to PC open this. Remove the hook @ Advanced networksettings activation! ---> click OK--> close
try again the bootloader etc, then on the tricolore reboot screen is shown USB in the lower white field and the bootloader can do its routine complete.
Have Fun with flashing the phones!

Please help, and please dont abuse

Hi Guys, I have bricked my Cingular branded BA Siemens SX66 PH20B. I am getting the no GSM error, I have read the WIKI and read the thread that follows Help, my device shows "No GSM" after upgrading, and I can not perform any more ROM upgrades Link. I have tried the steps and nothing seems to be working, I guess I must be a complete noob but i have spent hours trying to get the radio to install and nothing will work. I have spent 6 or 7 hours looking on here before i requested help I was running the radio unlock when a tree took out the power line to my house. I edited the ruu.conf and that didnt help I ran the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and it will update my rom with no problems at all it just hangs at the radio install and wont go anywhere i get a "Error 114: Radio update error" If someone can help I would appreciate it.
Might help.
I'm not quite sure about your problem but I did get the same radio update error couple times. One thing that I had to do is to let my computer (active sync) recognize my device first. After that the redio update error is gone.
I got it fixed, what i did was install an original rom from seimens that i got at SX66 (Blue Angel) Standardization Project, itfixed the radio error and then i could reinstall the updates
