xda2s rom update - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I tried to update my o2 xda2s rom (o2), got a comms error during update and now it wont boot up, screen has no backlight but has:
serial (written at the top)
V 2.08 (written at the bottom)
reset won't do anything
any ideas / solutions ?
Cheers

Don't Panic, Mr Mainwaring!
You're in bootloader mode... this is the state the BA goes into when a ROM element is being updated, you should be able to run the update again without any issues, a soft reset should go back to your previous ROM (depending at what stage it crashed!)

make sure your not using a usb Hub, the cradle must be directly into your PC.
then just run the update again.

Bricked Qtek 9100??

I tried to flash my Qtek 9100 to WM6 using the flashing tutorial on this site.
I followed the steps in the tutorial. I downgraded to Buttons ROM, unlocked the CID, and then I flashed the 3.08 IPL/SPL in stead of the T-Mobile 2.26.
Then I tried to use farias kitchen to make a WM6 and flashed it to the phone.
Everything seemed to go smoothly, but when I tried to start the phone after flashing the 3.08 and farias' to the phone, the phone just hangs at the startup screen with the picture of the beer glass and the coloseum.
I've tried to downgrade to Buttons firmware and I've also tried the Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM, but it doesn't help. I'm still stuck at the welcome screen.
Is there anything I can do, or have I bricked my phone for good?
flash an original qtek rom to your phone then try to flash the rom again
Your phone isnt bricked (yet)
I've done that, but it doesn't help. Still just hangs at the SPL/IPL screen.
Solution (worked for me)
I found a solution while looking trough the forum
I was facing the same problem on a G3 phone
this is copied from that link except the link to MTTY.exe is different (previous one doesn't work
See (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307332)
1- I tought that a SD backup was needed, and yes it is. But u can use your own phone and your own SD to do it.
2- Get a clean SD card (in qtek 9100 / Htc Wizard case is MiniSD) with 128MB (some people say 64MB, but I personally used a 128MB, maybe a 64MB is enough)
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.
4- Get your phone in bootloader mode. Like this : Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter in bootloader mode (RGB screen).
5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY.exe ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=231190 ). After open, on Port selection, choose USB and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
6- Type "r2sd all" and hit enter... wait to the end (at end shows "cmd>"). On your phone screen u can follow backup progress... small bar will appear down the RGB screen.
7- Power off the phone (or remove battery), enter bootloader mode (camera button + power on) and this time RGB won´t appear right away. Will ask if u want to "download SD image", press voice dial button to agree, and writting will begin. Wait to the end. Power off and power on normally. Now your phone should be working ok. Not even needed to reflash the phone after this.
I hope this helps you out
It worked for me (and other people if you look at the forums)
That solution was already known and was, in fact, discovered for the Wizard by a guy called 'Drugstore'
But what really matters is that this procedure only works if the device is already CID unlocked.
cheers
MDA Vario freezes at 2nd boot screen
I have the same problem. I flashed wm6.1 according to tutorial on this side. everything worked fine, until the time I uninstalled some application. after that my Vario froze. after soft reset it stopped on second screen (the one with info), and so it is anytime I try to reflash to other ROM. everything works fine until the time it shoud reboot.
I found this thread and tried the thing with backup image. everything worked, copying image to the phone ended with success. so I turned off the phone and started it again. but now, after all, I'm just back at the beginning
can somebody help me out with another solution??? pls.....
Try mtty

I didn't have chance to try this.... My Vario is already dead... Probably is my fault... As far, I wasn't able to flash to official T-mobile ROM, I did a backup copy to a SD card on my friends phone, and then tried to copy the image into mine... I'm afraid I destoyed bootloader this way After I turned off my phone first time after flashing, it didn't start again.... It doesn't react even to wall charger... Nothing... Just dead Vario
Get a powerfull charger

There is a post that suggest that somebody revives his batt with a wall charger, maybe is your batt... is dead... or your s is bricked.

Htc s730 trouble with password

hello couple weeks ago i found htc s730 in Norway but the phone have password
when i turn it on it says :
Password
denne enheten er last. Skviv inn enhetspassordet, og klikker du meny> Avbryt fot du slar nummeret.
My question is : is it possible to "unlock it" or mayby i have to install new ROM?
thanks for all your help
You found the phone just laying around? The owner who lost the phone probably locked it.
I would do a hard reset of it to wipe the data and start over. If theres any information you can see or use on it to return it to the person missing it that would be good. Otherwise hard reset and enjoy.
yes i found it on sidewalk with empty battery and without any simcard
ok. but i have no idea how to do this.
can somebody tell me how to do the hard reset s730 ?
thanx 4 all ya comments
...
Everything works fine
restart to the factory settings hepls awesome.
thank U once again
Cant do hard reset ..
i have the same problem..
not that i have found a phone but that it has pasword on it and they person who has the phone cant remember the password..
we would loove to do the hard reset.. but it doesnt work..
holding down the two soft buttons and then holding down power button for 1 sec.. it does nothing at all...
anyway else to do it ?
remeber,, i cant get into the menus due to the password..
The sequence of pushing and holding down is key to success:
1.) switch off
2.) push and hold l+r softkey
3.) switch on (no long push, just normal - but keep L+R pushed)
4.) wait for the prompt for reset
5.) release keys
6.) follow instructions on screen (could be "press 0 to ...")

1.Click Start > Expert > Clear Storage.
2.Follow the on-screen instructions to reset the phone. The phone will restart after it has been reset.
thank you Tobbie and Hakim Rahman for trying to help..
but it doesnt work..
it just boots the phone.. then asks for the security code for the phone..
Then the softkeys seem not to work ok. They are used very often and usually are the first to quit their duty. They will not work in the applications later as well, so possibly this is the reason why it was lost.
Another idea (not sure if THAT works): slide out the qwerty-keyboard and use these softkeys for the excercise, maybe that works?
A definite way to come to a hard reset is to put a new ROM on the phone. It will however only work if the phone is either CID unlocked (permanently with SuperCID or temporarily with GoldCard) or you have the original CID matching ROM update at hand.
Go to http://www.shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Wings and pick one that fits.
Then perform a normal upgrade. If that is not possible due to the locked phone, put it in bootloader mode first:
- push and hold camera key
- switch on or insert USB cable
-> you should see 3 colour screen
From there you can start the ROM Update.

I think you need upgrade SPL to HardSPL...
This look at the Threads of Jockyw2001 :
Wings SSPL and HardSPL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The attached SSPL and HardSPL are based on the Wings MFG SPL v0.91
- download the attached files
- REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS !!
- connect usb cable
- create a SPL backup by running spl-backup.bat from SPL-backup-kit (make sure you Wings is "application unlocked", run the attached SDA_ApplicationUnlock on PC)
- copy sspl-0.91-wings.exe to your device and run it
- after a few seconds "USB" appears on the display
- unplug and replug the usb cable
- if you only want to test the sspl try flashing the attached splash screen by running CustomRUU.exe from flash-splash-wings
- you can now flash the hardspl-0.91-wings.nbh by running CustomRUU.exe from flash-hardspl-wings
- after installing the uspl or hardspl you can flash any rom, cooked rom, radio or splash screen
Note:
The HardSPL is never overwritten which in case of flashing trouble is a great insurance. Should you want to flash another SPL or USPL you must run the SSPL.
Features:
SuperCID / Security Level=0
Does not check NBH signatures
Based on 0.91 MFG bootloader, rtask, fat2sd, sd2fat enabled
Accept any password
Model ID check only 4 chars
SPL overwrite DISABLED (to bypass, use sspl-0.91-wings.exe)
Bypasses "Task 2A" (this formats entire flash which renders your Wings into a brick, we don't want that)
Important:
Use at your own risk! I'm not responsible for any damage to your device caused by using the attached files​
Hi Hakim Raman,
...the suggested procedure will not work as you must have access to the device first for application unlock and executing applications. This is only an optional procedure if the poor guy wants to play with custom ROMs later. One step after the other...

Flash Stop at 1% trying to go back to Stock ROM

I have a problem and I've search the forums and search google and I find people with somewhat of the same situation im in... but the methods to fix them don't work.
My problem is,
I have a T-Mobile WING (Herald)
I am flashed on soft SPL with SPL 4.70.Yang
I am ROM flashed to Touch-It WM6.1
I want to flash back to the stock T-Mobile Rom
I run the Stock RUU and it enters the bootloader and at 1% the wing resets
I then get a connection error 260 and the flash will not proceed.
I have tryed restarting my device/computer. unplugging my usb putting in another slot... and still nothing. Any help would be appreciated I'm really unhappy with Touch-It and want to go back to stock and do some customization that way.
you need to extract the .nbh file from the stock rom using 7-zip or winrar on the ruu executable. Make sure you don't extract the spl.nbh file. I think the file you want is something like RUU_signed.nbh
then put it into your HardSPL folder and flash away
Yep. Besides, 4.70.Yang is a HardSPL, not a softspl. If you want the SPL to also return back to stock for warranty issues, then just use USPL along with the tmobile NBH. If not, do what fzzyrn said for the best results.
Got to this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421304
Go to post #2 and download the Herald-USPL-beta3
extract the nbh file from your rom and place it in the ruu folder that is located in the flash center folder.
run the utility.

The S620 is not a herald and every phone is different, so I'm not sure if we could help you out. Does your phone have a HardSPL? Have you used HardSPL before? Even if the activesync icon doesn't start trying to sync it doesn't mean that it's not connected, it just means that it has nothing to sync (since it's in bootloader mode.)
I FIXED
I Did These Steps:
I Turned My Phone Off
I Pressed The Camera Icon Button
I Turned The Phone On (no Loose The Camera Button)
It Got Into Boot Mode
I Plugged To The Usb Cable
I Oppenned The Ruu For My Phone Version
And Wowla Fixed
Thank You Guys For Your Help
The Answer is in a Careful Search
This post is being made to you about... a month too late. But that's because I just got the Wing yesterday and started trying out roms today. Anyway, ran into the same problem earlier today and found the answer in the forums. I've written the following for those who might need all the steps. In your case, read from step 3. Anyway, in case you still have this problem, here's what you do:
1. Hold camera button when pressing the soft reset to get into the bootloader; it should be in red blue green and white. something like that.
2. Connect the usb to the computer and run the stock RUU Utility (this can be found on the official t-mobile website. look under something like support/downloads for the Tmobile Wing)
3. When it hits the 1%, the phone will automatically restart. When it does this, it breaks the connection between the computer and the phone. At that instant, hold the camera button and the soft reset button. Then, when you let go of the reset button, it should go back to boot loader.
4. At this point, the Rom Utility should give you the error. Do not take out the battery as instructed. Just disconnect the usb, reconnect the usb, wait for the computer to recognize it (it should appear in my computer) and then just continue the utility.
Good luck. =)
i had the same problem flashing my P4350 yesterday. tried a lot of different things, the solution for me was:
1. start flashing from the bootloader
2. just to hold the camera button when the phone restarted after 1% (nothing else, no soft reset or anything).
this resulted in the phone restarting in bootloader again, and after that it just resumed upgrading the rom.

need help---cannot boot up

hey guys,
need some help from the xpert here, my tilt cannot boot up its stuck on the AT&T screen, i have tried soft reset, hard reset and still cannot fix the problem. the worst problem is cannot sync into my pc...
thx
you sure you attempted to hard reset and still nothing?
take out your memory card and see if that does anything.
If it still won't boot up, then get into bootloader mode and re-flash your rom.
We need a bit more info to help:
1. Did you have HardSPL installed? Check by looking at the tri-colour bootloader screen (press and hold power/camera buttons and reset with stylus at the same time).
2. What ROM/radio do you have?
3. Did you try to flash another rom or radio before this problem hapenned?
4. When you hard reset, did you get the grey screen with instructions telling you to send to continue? Sometimes the hard reset routine doesn't always work properly.
5. Are you running XP or Vista on your PC?
Try going into the bootloader and connecting the USB cable. The screen text at the bottom should change from 'Serial' to 'USB'. If you have Hard-SPL you should be able to re-flash any rom (some here) - but check for compatible radios. If you don't have hard-spl try flashing the manufacturers original rom.

Keep getting in bootloader after successfull update

Last night my phone froze with Jacks v4.x wm6.5 rom.
i took battery out and put it back in again, and booted it.
it showed me bootloader trying to update my image..
after trying to boot without sd card and cancelling, whic hall didnt work i decided to let it flash.. i had to reinstall but alright...
but after the successfull flash.. it keeps giving me bootloader willing to update..
Ok this morning it worked.. now i have the same thing again.. i reboot my phone, and it gets stuck in bootloader again.. help?
how can i solve this? any ideas?
thanks
ps: without sd-card it is now in bootloader screen saying 'serial'
SPL: 0.72.01 oliNex
*bump* problem occured again..
I have exactly the same problem except mine happened when I tried to restore stockSPL since some cracks appeared in the housing and I'm sending it to service.Any help greatly appreciated!
Hello,
I had the same problem and I solved it.
You have to downgrade bootloader to original version (ruusigned_072stockspl).
Run bootloader and connect USB cable to PC (the "serial" should change to "USB" on screen). Download ruusigned_072stockspl.zip, unzip. Download X1_HardSPL, run it but don't click "next" button! Replace RUU_Signed.NBH from ruusigned_072stockspl.zip to X1_HardSPL folder. Then You can finish installation. Now You have to do Hard Reset and that's all.
