can someone help me out? when i run the official rom, it updates to 1% and then i get the nbf error. i tried to run loki but mda not recognized by my usb connection.
stuck now...please help!!!
actually, tried to run machinagod's RAPI unlocker..but MDA not recognized as connected...this was part of xelencin's 2.24 rom updater.
please help!!!
Hi,
you must provide more information if you want someone to help you.
First and most important: what does it mean your phone is stuck? Stuck where? Does the screen come on? Can you get the bootloader screen? (for the bootloader screen: hold the two keys on the right side of the device and press shortly the reset hole; if you see the three colors screen then you have the bootloader!)
bye
i get the screen with the 3 colors, and usb at bottom left. when i run the official t-mobile 2.26 update, the screen goes gray and there is a bar with % done. when that kicks in, i get 1% done then it stops. on my computer screen, i get the nbk error, saying the nbk file that i have is not for my phone.
i looked for fixes but all the fixes require activesync connections which i am unable to connect with. just fyi, when i plug in the usb cable to my laptop, i hear the *ding* for usb noting it is connected but the activesync connection is not available.
thanks in advance for your help.

Before your battery goes flat i suggest you to re-install your old rom. Don't know why 2.26 is not working, maybe you downloaded a corrupted archive. To install your old rom it is not required that activesync sees your phone. Go in bootloader mode and flash your old rom back.
i dont think i downloaded a corrupted rom file because i downloaded it from 2 different places, one from Tmobile site directly from my tmobile account.
what bootloader program should i use? please advise and location to download...
thanks,
mike

bootloader program??? There's no bootloader program!
What i'm trying to tell you is:
- Your phone is stuck for unknown reasons. In this state you cannot recharge your battery!
- Before the remaining battery charge becomes too few, reinstall your old rom (the one you had before trying 2.26)
- When your phone -with the old rom- will be working again, then you'll have all the time to investigate on the causes of this failure.
- Now hurry up and install the old rom before it's too late (unless you have a second wizard that you can use to recharge the batteries)
To install the old rom you must go to the three-colors screen (the bootloader), connect to USB (but activesync won't start!) and start the rom installer.
bye
risi,
sorry...how do i get to bootloader screen? is it the tricolor screen? has anyone had the same problem that i'm having, going from 2.17 hack to 2.26 official?
what program can i use to load my original rom with?
sorry for the semi-newbie questions...desperate to revive my MDA...
again, thanks.

to go to the bootloader screen you must keep pressed the two keys on the right side of the device and, while keeping them pressed, shortly press the reset button. the bootloader screen IS the three colors screen. when you get the bootloader screen, reinstall your previous rom (2.17).
i plugged the phone in the wall charger and the battery charged up all last night so i am not worried about the battery...
i just cannot figure out how to load the old rom i had.
i didnt bring the phone with me to work...i will try to reflash with old rom...for now...i am using my old hp 6315 (yikes! - remember the probs with this phone?? lol

to load the old rom you must:
- get to the bootloader screen (the three colors one)
- download the 2.17 rom's ,exe archive (download it from the same place you took it last time)
- connect the phone to USB (don't worry if activesync doesn't see it)
- start the rom .exe file
thanks risi...
hope i can get it back man...

I hope so! About the problem you had with 2.26, i don't know why it happened. Is your phone a T-mob USA MDA? If it is not then you must CID unlock it before flashing a different operator's rom.

yes, it is a tmo usa mda...or i would think so since i bought it from a factory store (not an authorized dealer). anyway man...i will keep you posted...for now, using my trusty hp 6315. lol
Hello,
I have a similar problem. I updated my QTEK 9100
with a T- Mobile 2.24 ROM. Now I need to go back to the original QTEK Rom, namely RUU_Prodigy_2170702_21707102_20710_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe, but after starting the upgrade process the program refuses to downgrade the device and says get a newer nbf file.
Is there a way to force a downgrade?
Many thanks in advance

Is your phone CID unlocked? If so, then you must download the wizard_upgrade_noid tool from the ftp server and use it to install the 'down'grade.
In details:
- be sure your phone has been CID unlocked (and is not a G4)
- download the wizard_upgrade_noid (i don't remember the name exactly) tool
- use winrar to extract the original qtek rom .exe archive
- copy the noid tool to the folder where you extracted the qtek rom
- run it
bye
Hello Risidoro,
At first thanks for your fast answer. Since I have a QTEK I don't beleve it's CID locked. How can I verify if the phone is CID locked? Is there a tool to check this?
I proceeded exactly as you advised. I used Winrar to extract the files and used the Wizard_RomUpgradeUtility_noid I downloaded from the ftp site.
Then I copied the nk.nbf file to the respective folder but the utility after having completed the initial 2 screens says:
ERROR [238] : FILE READ
The update utility cannot open the requested file. Please check your update utility.....

Hello,
Just some small updates: My phone has currently the Mr Clean 2.3 firmware loaded : IPL 2.24 SPL 2.24 GSM 02.25.11 and OS 2.24.10.1.
Previously I was using RUU_Prodigy_2170702_21707102_20710_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe and had no problems. After upgrading to xelencin t-mobile based US rom I had trouble when making data transfers over GPRS. Then I decided to test Mr clean. Altough I data transmission has improved a bit it's still not so good as with my original RUU 2.17 release.
Unfortunately I am unable to revert to this version. Also having tried to downgrade using Faria's Custom downngrade file only the IPL was downgraded to 1.05 and the SPL file stayed to 2.24.
I tried then to reapply RUU_Prodigy_2170702_21707102_20710_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe but I recieved the error message UPGRADE only.
Since apparently this is unstable I decided to reapply Mr Clean and now I have again IPL 2.24 SPL 2.24 GSM 02.25.11 and OS 2.24.10.1.
I suspect that the data problems are due to the fact that these new radio versions are not compatible with our provider. I live in Luxembourg so we use LUXGSM.
Is there a way how I can revert to my old 2.17 software.
Any coments are highly appreciated.

Hi Anais,
try flashing with the RUU (Rom Upgrade Utility) tools that you find in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=56088
Download the archive RUU.rar and extract its content somewhere in your PC. Copy in the same location the nk.nbf from the rom and run the .exe.

Hello,
I`m trying to get latest lvsw wm6 to the device.
I own the phone since today.

Execute ROMUpdateUltility (Hard-SPL)

From: Image Version 1.16.407.2
to: Image Version 1.20
->Next -> Next
On the phone:
Enterbotloader.exe
"blabla"
YES
On the computer:
ERROR[246]: Device not responding
On the phone:
IPL-SSPL by Des
SPL-1.07.ds
ok,
trying to run ROMUPdateUltility again...
next next next... he shows me the progress bar --> finished! YES!
Rebooting the phone --> same software version as before the update?

I've the same problem [246] upgrading unofficial roms like
GSM_1.41.00.11
and
ROM_ING_WM6_2.27
The only upgrade I make successfully is original
htcp3600-RUU_Trinity_HTC_ITA_1-23-408-2_103_6275_1-38-00-11_108
what's wrong ?
P.S.
I test it using activeSync 4.2 & 4.5
Messiah..... Have you read the very first post in the LVSW ROM thread?
I am NOT having ago, just checking, seems you may have miss-understood.
Grab ALL 3 downloads listed there.
Apply first one, and yes there IS NO real visible change to the phone apart from it has been hard SPL'd
Now apply Second one, will go through the same process BUT the Radio ROM is changed and updated
Now Apply the Third and WM6 is installed
The failure you describe is the computer dropping Activ Sync and then "seeing" the phone in Bootloader mode, which is why it take 2 bites of the first cherry, after that all "should " be ok.
I managed to get mine on the first attempt so it is "Me Proof"[TM] and "Just Works" (c)..... however report back if this hasnt helped
yeah, the process you described tells me that you've loaded hard-spl on your phone.. that's all. No WM6 yet...
I have the same problem.
I have Hard-SPL'ed my Orange M700
Then reboot and reestablish Active Sync
Then I have updated the Radio Rom
Then reboot and reestablish Active Sync
and now it's 1.41.00.11 in settings/system/device information
but when i apply
20070527_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1 it uploads then i power on my device and it's still WM5 ?
What am I doing wrong??
Any help appreciated.
This may be a stupid question but have you SuperCID your device before running the updates?
If you go:
Start -> Settings
System
Device Information
What does it say under Radio version? (Just checks the second step has been completed successfully).
Also when you enter the bootloader what does it say on the screen?

I thought you didn't need to SuperCID the device (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1245390&postcount=70)
My radio Rom shows 1.41.00.11
TBH I don't know. But it can't hurt to try it, I SuperCID mine and it flashes perfectly each and every time.
I'm merely trying to make suggestions that may get a result.
Oh, you didn't tell me what the bootscreen said and what version of Activesync do you have on your PC?
While doing the SuperCID upgrade i was wondering: After flashing any of the ROMs do I reboot or power On manually or wait for the device to reboot itself as the message in the SupoerCID tool suggests:
If radio upgrade went fine, wait until your phone reboots and make sure
ActiveSync is enabled again (you should see green icon in system tray)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Stupid Q: How can i make the boot screen stay long enough so i can write it down?
My ActiveSync is 4.5 on WinXP
Rummage around in Start--> Setting --> device ID, and version and stuff...... they are there and you get the same info as on the boot screen... and it stay on longer ;-)
Sorry if a little vague but away from phone at the moment......... erkkkkkkkk
/me runs off to find it so this may get edited

I didnt Super CID just followed the instructions in LVSW 's first thread, applied each DL in order and "it just works" (c)
Thanks. That's where i got the infroramtion from b4. I just thought it might be different in the boot screen.
I now did the SuperCID unlocking and did the 3 upgrades again. after the 3rd upgrade i still have:
- WM5.1.342 Build 15096.3.0.0
- ROM 1.23.61.5
- Radio 1.41.00.11
Q again: Do I need to wait after the flashing or do i immidiately press power
(that's what i do when it says finish) or do i soft reset? Or what else?
Thanks for your help.
Hmmmmm just got me phone....... dont ask
Right CE OS 5.2.1413 build 17745.0.2.3
ROM 2.0.1.1
Radio 1.41.00.11
Sooooo.......
a) are you using LVSW (just to be sure)
b) have you grabbed the latest version posted on page 1 of the upgrading thread?
c) I let it restart it self after it finished flashing, it then reclibrates the screen etc etc
Also looks like you havent upgraded anything just yet ... follow the instructions to the letter and it "should" be fine
a) yes
b) yes
c) there might be the problem i waited 2 mins ans as it wasn't rebooting i just used the power button. How long should i wait aftr the WM6 install?
I soft reset mine directly after the screen goes black. So that should be fine.
Maybe it has to do with my boot loader:
When i go to bootloader i see:
IPL-0.50
SPL-1.07.0000
then it starts fading quickly. is this normal? I have the same fading effect when i install ste 2 the radio ROM. but i still have the new radio rom on as it displays as 1.41.00.11
I again tried to use the 2.0.1.1 it uploads very quickly (maybe 2min) and then it's still the "orange" screen and WM5 on reboot and i still have all my data.
What a I doing wrong?
No. Mine stays there right up until the upload to the phone starts.
Then I get a grey background with a blue progress bar.
What happens if you run Enterbootloader on the phone. Then connect it to the PC.
Then run the install program on the PC.
The first process didn't work.
You should have:
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
Hmmmmm if all else fails try a hard reset on your phone and see what versions of what you have after that.
Did you use ANY form of unlocking prior to using LVSW rom?
/me suspects this might be casuing issues
The radio rom zoooooomed up to my phone and likewise the WM6
I cannt remember reseting the phone after flashing.... IIRC it just worked as in it finished then re-started and way hey off it went.
Also FWIW I just used the DL's in the thread without bothering with anyother boot loaders etc... ie extract flies in first DL into 1 folders, run them, ditto DL's 2 and 3.
Was updating my dads SPV M700 to WM6 and have hit a problem ....
The rom image updated ok, and I used AX3L's 2.0.8.
Unfortunately during the GSM update the software crashed, and froze at 51%. I had to re-boot and now I can't use the phone.
When I re-set the phone it says No GSM at the HTC screen and then stops loading at the WM6 front page.
I can get into the Bootloader by pressing the Power/Camera/Reset buttons, but when I try to re-flash GSM is says error 270, corrupt image. I have tried several files with no luck.
I would appreciate a hand ..... My dad is going to kill me
Thanks
gaz_az
try press
power button + camera + reset
to enter usb mode
then reflash the radio again.
hope this works
You can try 2 other things!
Download the Radio ROM again- you may have had a downlaod glitch in the 1st one. V1.38 is the best one to try.
Download and install the offical HTC WM5 ROM- this should be a full ROM including Radio, so sometimes completes more effectively. If you are brave, you can them retry the WM6 flash!
since bricking a hermes i stopped taking chances doing rom upgrades via usb..
the method that is most reliable ad safe is... via SD card
extract RUU_signed file from the upgrade pack (use winrar) and then copy it to the root of a blank sd (mini or micro etc) and rename to TRINIMG.nbh ..enter bootloader and follow the steps.. its fast and most reliable
Ok - Thanks for the help, but no luck so far. I have tried the suggestions above !
Heres what I have done ...
Hard reset - no change
Tried to re-flash with WM6 and WM5 cooked roms, but an error comes up saying the images are corrupt. This happens with any image I try.
I have also tried a legit HTC WM5 rom upgrade image, but it doesn't work either. It gives an error at 1% saying invalid device ID.
What I can do it get into the standard bootloader screen, which shows I have a USB connection when plugged in. If I allow the phone to boot up it stops at the WM6.0 picture. It won't go far enough to allow me to get an activesync connection.
ANy more adivice would be greatly appreciated !
gaz_az
Next thing then, is to try and obtain a downloaded Orange M700 ROM- there are a few links hereabouts.
For some reason, your device seems to want only its home ROM. If that fails there are other methods before sending back to Orange!
I downloaded an Orange rom, but still no luck. It gets to 1% again, then says there is a error/corrupt image file. Same as any of other cooked images !
What next ??
well if you were my son, i would advice you,to buy a plane ticket for somewhere very far,leave the house while i sleep,and pray every day you have left in your life,for not find you on my way
uhm, question about boot loader and flash on boot loader mode.
I copy file TRINIMG.nbh to root card mini SD, and i can't go as you say...
always Tri colors screen....

You are running out of options
Your choices now are to go further down the 'fiddling' route, or give up and return the phone to Orange for repair. At least if its is stuck in bootloader, they may not spot that you have been meddling
If you want to play more, there are very few Trinity specific fixes, but possibly some of the questions/answers in the Hermes WiKi may help, though the Bootloader versions etc won't be relevant.
[Edit: When you are in Bootloader mode, what version numbers are showing on the screen?]
is it so wrong i was smiling when i read this.
does make me wonder if u told ur dad what u were going to do or whether u were trying to be cocky by giving him a better phone without him knowing.
all i can say is, UNLUCKY !
I must say things are looking bad - I think it would take an original orange SPV rom if I could get one. Been to the orange website, but no luck !! Anyone know if orange released one ??
Been looking at the Hermes unbrick thread. Is there a way to enter KITL debug mode in the trinity ??
G
P.S. Dad knew I was upgrading the phone, already did it once for him and it went ok. No sure he knew I could acutually kill it
No Orange haven't released an official rom.
Well Orange UK haven't Orange FR have, so unless he speaks and reads french that's not an option.
Well, French or not, you've probably got nothing to lose by trying to load the official French ROM
Go Here and click the Mise-a-jour link (which is French for ROM) and it will open a zip file download without the need to verify the IMEI number.
If that doesn't work, nothing will! If it does load, you will at least have a working phone, even if it is in French, and you can go back over the ROM update again, remembering to apply the SPL Bootloader first!
Still "not allow", i don't know what the hell Orange was doing with P3600?
Lock everything?........it's suck !!!
No luck with the French ROM. Same thing gives an error message about wrong device ID.
I am one step from chucking it in the bin. Any more last minute ideas ??
erh, bizzard,i can't use "wtty.exe" to view my CID ...
i tape "info 2"and it always appear
Cmd>info 2
CID: Wait interpreter timeout
HTCSF kEØ(HTCE
Cmd>
...............................
Someone have issue for that?
If i can view CID code,i think i can find the right ROM to re-vivre...all suck !!!
erh, hey guy, your boot loader is english or french? sorry if it's the most stupid question of the day......i think french device use french boot loader,right?
i mean, when screen tri-color appear, use mini SD card to flash ROM, the language it apprear itself is english or french.
p/s : i was telephone to the HTC center, and they say as usual, send it to the center repair.
For french user address is : be sure u have enough garanty which required.
send them and make them crazy.....

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.

To Flash a ROM you'll most likley need Hard SPL
Follow the "Getting Started" Link in my Sig.
If you cannot get WM to boot, you'll need to re-flash your orginal carriers ROM.

You shouldn't be using cmonex's SD method the first time round. It is for upgrading only.
I have downloaded the package from point 2 (you should follow the USB method in post 3, NOT the SD set) and have upload it onto my site, please let me know when you are done with it.

ok, thanks DaveShaw, i have downloaded those files. the method in step 2 involves copying the jump progs to the device memory, which i do not have access to as it will not start. can i just copy to the sd card? thats why i was trying to flash a standard rom. i need a solution that will work just from the card. will the RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.rar load using what i have on my phone now? i assume that the spl gets replaced when i upgrade to 6.1 with htc ruu. i can try anything as i have nothing to lose now (do i?)

Enter your bootloader and try flashing any ROM supplied by your carrier to get into Windows Mobile.
What screen do you get stuck on? If it is the tri color screen check out the link in my signature.

Hi again, i am not actually 'stuck' on the screen as i can get into the loader, its just that i get the message saying that the (newer) rom will not load. i am extending my (c)rapidshare as free will not let me down load the 'standard' rom, then i will try that (just had to re-initialise my paypal and the passwords are on eWallet the phone, so ive reloaded the eWallet on my pc and ....so it goes on zzzzzzzzzz its funny how these things spiral down - not).
is there any way to update the spl only from the sd card?

No.
Can your phone boot into Windows or not?

Yeah, you need the ROM your carrier supplied.
Where is the Phone from?
Does a Hard Reset help?

woo hoo, yippeeeeeeeeeeeeee. the kaiser lives. back to standard 6.0 rom. cheers, i owe you a beer (or 2) if you are ever in abu dhabi, let me know ;-)
i can reload all from sprite backup (only from yesterday) to get me going again
but..... next will try to replace spl and then load 6.1. not sure why HTC standard would not let me update, i thought the ruu would update any htc phone
HardSPL 3.29 is first (yes?) then will try Kaiser_HTC_ASIA_HK_WWE_3.34.721.2 which sounds good. one more thing, my phone is not locked so do i need to do the 'SIM and CID-Unlock'

That's right, flash the HardSPL 3.29 first (SIM unlock is optional, CID unlock isn't needed - Hard SPL takes care of that - but it comes as part of the SIM unlock) then flash a WM6.1 ROM.

Only if it's from the same region the RUU was intended for eg the European TyTN II's won't accept the latest Hong Kong WWE ROM by default because of this so as already suggested hardSPL works around this. My WM 6.0 UK original TyTN II upgraded to WM 6.1 OK but that was using the HTC UK provided ROM update. That updated everything required including the SPL and Radio to the required HTC versions. I'm back on the original WM 6.0 version though due to reliability issues with 6.1 and poor GPS performance.
