hello everyone,
i have a little problem and hope you can help me with this. Yesterday i flashed my wizard with the underground edition. everything worked fine in the process, i did the CID-Unlocking as well. After rebooting,the screen appeared and i was happy. Then i realized that the radio didnt work and my usb-interface (charching and sync) is disabled. So i can not flash my deviceagain, it even does not charge the battery. now the battery is empty and i have to find a method to fill the batt up, to get into my device. if so, can anybody help me with a hint how to reactivad my usb interface?
Thanks and regards
bernd
did you find the charching problem? i have too
i have the same problem hellllpppp please
The USB Port of my device is also defective, and i am using an external charger to charge the battery.You can get an external charger and can put your battery in it to charge.
However i am unable to use Activesyn and flash my mobile.
Can i flash my phone with a bluetooth connection?
with any update Utility u going to find EnterBootLoader.exe with it
send EnterBootLoader to your mobile and run it
connect your usb and flash your new rom
Are you using Vista? I had the same problem after my first flash. You need to update the Driver. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338473 Follow to update Vista drivers.

hi..i have a tmobile mda with the rom 2.26.10.x that i didnt know couldnt be cid unlocked...i found out after i upgraded which sux balls.lolz..i have a few questions...
1.What is the best rom i can upgrade or downgrade without bricking my mda...
2.why is the mda wifi reception bad most of the time resulting on always 1 bar for wifis around me...i even tried the wireless b mod.
3.I know your phone isnt dead if bootloader works but do ihave to use an sd with the rom saved on it in order to reflash my mda again...or can i just use an app that installs it via usb while bootloader is on?? <this one im definitely confused on... Please anyone help asap, thanks so much and much blessing
Here's an answer to part of your problem:
As long as you have a USB connection, you can re-flash your phone (provided it's in either the bootloader or connected to your system via active sync 4.1 (I don't know about the beta 4.5 of active sync - which changed the way your PC connects to your phone as I understand it)). You may have to try several different ROMs to re-flash, but generally, I have found that doing the following almost always guarantee's a re-flash:
1) remove the SIM card
2) after every attempt, disconnect the phone from your USB port and then reconnect it
3) between attempts, remove the battery while you are setting up your system (you can't flash a phone w/ a dead battery, so unless you have a way to charge the battery other than the phone, you need to protect the amount of charge you have like it's your lifeline!)
4) I have had more success re-flashing a phone that is in bootloader mode by using the original ROM .exe file instead of trying to extract the files from it and THEN run the update utility.
5) If your phone came w/ a 2.x ROM, I wouldn't try to downgrade it to a 1.x ROM as this has never worked for me. Try flashing it w/ a 2.x or higher ROM only.
Hope this helps (oh, and rumor has it you should use the USB ports on the back of your PC, not the ones on the side or front!)

DESPERATELY NEED HELP.
Every time i connect my wizard to my machine using the USB cable, i get the following message in baloon.
"One of the USB Devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it."
It appears as "Unknonw Device" on windows device manager.
This started happening when i changed my ROM to AMP.v2.Vanilla. Prior to that my wizard was connecting fine. I have been trying to resolve this for days now but no luck.
Following are the things i have tried.
1. Un-installed Activesync & re-installed.
2. Soft & Hard Reset the device.
3. Tried going in bootloader so that i can install my preivous rom, but the machine still doesnt recognize the device and gives the same message as mentioned above.
4. Removed all the USB controllers and re-installed in the machine.
5. Tried on different machines but same results, so its not machine specific.
6. Tried with a new cable to so its not the cable, it has to be the device.
Anyone who can help with this. I am sure i am not the only one having this trouble.
Any kind of help is appreciated. Just need to connect and go back to my preivous rom.
FYI: I am running WINXP SP2 on my machine.
ROM: 10.0.0.10
Radio: 02.69.11
Protocal: 1.1.13.30
Thanks in advance.
Nick.
You can flash in bootloaders mode,its not necessary to activesync.Get you phone in Bootloaders (tri color screen) by holding down Camers button and either Soft Reset or push Power On button,it'll go into bootloaders,hook up the phone with pc via usb cable,watch small usb appear at the bottom of the bootloaders,its good to go and run the RUU in the Rom,it'll start to flash and upgrade.Solve the activesync problem afterwards.
Thanks for the reply mate but i have already tried that.
I went into the booloader and connected the usb. It does show USB at the screen, however my PC doesnt recognize it and the RUU doesnt run. It says to connect the device.
I am not at all worried abt the activesync. Syncing is the last thing i'll think. I just want to connect and go back to my previous rom.
Any other suggestions.
Please see attached screen shots.
This sounds like a hardware issue on your phone. I doubt this works but go to start -> settings -> connections -> usb-pc and either check or uncheck the box then close that app.
If that doesn't work Search for the thread on flashing from the miniSD card. But again, this sounds like the usb on your phone has failed.
I have tried checking the USB to PC and unchecking it. No help with that.
One more interesting thing is the phone does get charged with the USB cable, just doesnt connect.
Will check the thread for flashing from minisd.
Thanks bunches.
hmm,
Hard reset your phone and uncheck the option 'allow network connections' or something in the phone settings...> connections...> usb to pc
This error occurs when there is an “open port error” before upgrading ,You can reset the device and run RUU again. If you still encounter an “OPEN PORT ERROR” again, reset your computer and try again. disable or stop any antivirus/firewall running or any other such program which might be hindering the flash,don't surf the net.
Kill 'WCESCOM' altogether,in the Task Manager,stopping activesync.

hmmm,you got a connection problem buddy,the mini usb port of the phone is broken or damaged,you cannot flash with sdcard method,untill you already had made a backup of the rom earlier and saved it on the sdcard.
Get the mini usb port of the phone repaired or you can try to wriggle it a bit and check if it works and try to hold it there in that possition till the flash completes.
IS there a place i can get step by step process of flashing through SD card?
For all the forums, i am not able to understand anything./
Even the mtty doesnt work, it doesnt open the usb port.
No Luck as of now.....Am very desperately waiting for any Saviour....PLEASE
No other way out,except to get the freakin mini usb port repaired or replaced.

Dang, thats right. I forgot that on the Wizard you can only flash a previously saved rom image. Can't just flash roms like you can on the Tilt.
Yep, basically, you have to get the USB port fixed as you are stuck where you are currently at on the Wizard I'm afraid.
Thanks guys. Have given my Wizard to get the Mini USB Port changed. I have my fingers crossed. Hope it works.
What exactly happens to the mini usb port?
I am having the same problem syncing.
The phone hooks up, charges, and makes the "connected" sound when I plug it into the usb port, but NO activesync...DOH!!!
Honestly, i couldn't figure it out.....no one seems to know whats the cause. The phone is bricked. It wont even start now... and its lying....
I am using an LG KS20 these days.....
Let me know if somebody happens to find a solution for that.

Dear NIce_shire,
i am having the same problem and i got it resolved just by holding and tightly pressing the mini usb in my device. Its basically the problem with mini usb port of pda (Hardware) not a software one. Get it reparied from market or do it by urself. Good Luck!
USB link?
Hi mfrazzz
I have the same problem - USB link stopped working after a Radio upgrade. Definitively not a h/w USB miniport problem. Even when I get the Wizard G3 phone into bootloader and the USB word is at the bottom in the white line, flashing ROMs does not work as the RUU reports Error message stating no USB link (BTW, ActiveSync also reports no mobile device present and doesn't connect).
Is this a bricked phone then?
Thanks.

PS The set is an MDA Vario and I had successfully installed S.V.I.s Manila 4.5 Beta (IPL 1.01, SPL 1.01 shows now, but was IPL 1.01, SPL 1.06 prior to installing Manila and Radio was 1.12.10 and I upgraded it to 2.69.11 and then the bloody thing stopped working and the USB link can't be enabled again)
Dear all,
I was facing the same issue of "USB device malfunctioned" and got it resolved yesterday. Its not because of software neither coz of cable (i did changed lots of cables but faced the same issue), its just because of mini USB in device. Its working perfectly alright now, it may not be replaced even dont need replacement at all. It needs minor soldering, even you can do it by urself. Just open 4 screws at its back (two under the camera cap one is below stylus placement and 4th is on opposite side) and open it. No need to be worried about......

himalaya not working
i am still seeking for help. is there anybody out there to solve the problem.thanks
first of all, which Windows are you running ?
Try to connect your USB Cable Directly to the back of your PC (not the exteder)
Try to replace the Cable if you can to test
Make sure your battery is charged fully (charge with a Wall Charger that came with it!!! not the USB)
Hi,
I have a big problem with my HTC/XDA Daimond.
I bought it in ebay so I dont know what the person did all with it, but Im trying my best to get it clear again.
What I can say only is that he flashed a new HTC ROM 2.00.421.1 WWE on it.
The Problems:
The display is flickering all the time if I switch the device on.
For this problem I read, that may the problem is the spl/hardspl and I have to flash the spl.
But now the second problem
I cant get a Sync with my PCs. Maybe its because of the new Rom, I don't know.
My Question:
Can I Flash the SPL over the 4GB Storage in the daimond (over WIFI I can copy the files on it)?
Can I Flash after that the Original Rom from O2 or HTC from the Daimond?
Or Other ideas to solve the problem?
With thanks in advance.

Can no body help me???
Do you get the USB connection pop-up when you connect the usb cable?
If you do then try using disk drive option so you can flash ROM that way.
You can flash from internal storage. See stickies in Rom section.
Flash a different hardSPL and then you're good to go for a different ROM. You can also flash the normal stock rom of your choice.
BTW: In rare occasions a firewall can prevent a correct activesync connection.
hey i have the EXACT same problem. my screen start flickering randomly one day and never stopped ever since & USB connection is totally gone. I've been trying to change the HardSPL version but I don't know how to do it without USB connection. I was successful in changing ROM using the internal storage method. Is there something similar to flash the HardSPL?
Someone help me please
Thanks
Hello,
I'm having issue synchronizing my Xperia X1 with my PC using ActiveSync or WMDC.
Powering my battery works but sync doesn't. I tried 2 other USB cables and same problem occur.
I tried different PC but still I have same problem. I event went back to original Stock and this doesn't helps also.
Should I send my device for fix? I have warranty? I can reverse to original Stock and put back original boot loader.
Hopefully they will fix it but if they don't I cannot add custom ROM any more
You can go and get a card reader to have your sd mini read in the pc, I got mine with 5 EUR and it also supports several type of cards. Also keep in mind that read/write speed is faster with a card reader than plugging your device in Disk Drive mode and this can be convenient sometimes
Good luck with the repair. If you revert to stock SPL and to stock rom and if your time of warranty is not up then you should have no problems, although in my country the service center sucks, they try to make you pay as much as possible...
I manage to resolve this issue. I revers back to my stock ROM 6.1 and still I cannot sync. Then I put back radio 1.10.25.18 and it START TO WORK !!!! I can sync now without any problem and it works now with 6.5 ROM and different radio.
This was last step before I want to return it to SonyEricsson service.

how to update the radio 1.10.25.85 on xperia x1 by the micro sd card? since the usb is not working? thanks!
same as you update your ROM, just rename radio file to KOVSIMG.nbh and update it. Hope this will work for you also.
yes I do this procedure [KOVSimg.nbh] but gets caught in tla loading. WHAT do I do now .thanks!
there is no difference in flashing ROM and Radio, can you maybe check that you do all proceudre correctly? maybe you should download Radio from some other place, maybe is broken
i have the same problem...the battery is recharging but it cannot sync...maybe it has something to do with the version of windows...i was using windows vista and windows mobile device center and it synced and all was ok...but now i have windows 7 ultimate x64 and even though i downloaded the mobile device center it does not recognise the phone when i plug it in activesync mode....it still works perfectly in USB drive mode....but i cannot flash a new rom through the usb method now...recently tried it on a friends pc with windows xp and activesync and worked just fine...any thoughts on that??..
ok. I tried everything. [xperia x1] is not reconhesido by [usb].
neither the radio rom can be clicked. [already downloaded several saiter]. it hangs in louding
I've the same problem occured before but I'm not sure if it's as simple as mine.
All I did was disable "Faster Transfer" under Active Sync radio Button in USB 2 PC (Control Panel), hope it's helpful.
Ok, I'd try this, but I have two questions:
1) can any body give the link to the old Radio rom?
2) I already have a 828x rom installed. is that compatible with the old rom?

hm, OT post
1) radio selection, don't forget to install a matching rilphone.dll
2) afaik those two (meaning radio rom and normal rom) are not related like that, radios should work in all versions on all roms
it might be, that you suffer less functionality/signal strength when using an older radio version, but that is regionally different and cannot be generalized
hope you find your ideal combo
Best, DK
