Big trouble upgrading from 1.22 to 1.4

Hey gus,
New to this forum. I was trying to upgrade my ba from 1.22 to 1.4 and somehow I think I got stuck in the bootloader screen. I downloaded the rom directly from clubimate. My problem is when I run the rom it gets stuck when it tries to upgrade the radio. Now my phone is totally non working, it starts once in a while but only to the bootloader screen.
Any advice would be great.
Thank you guys.

Let me know how you get on..?
Cheers,

I am downloading right now. Is it easy to switch the language?
thanks

Thank you for responces, but they did not work.
OK, I downloaded the dutch 1.42 rom version. I also downloaded the country code error program. I ran it and I got the same exact thing as I did with the 1.4 rom directly from imate. The problem is: when the rom program is about to update the radio it freezes and returns an error 114 something like radio update error. I don't know what to do, and of course my phone is not usable.
Please if you have any advice tell me.
thank you

Hey guys,
I finally fixed it. I read somewhere that if you delete the radio.nbf and the ms.nbf files and then try to update it will work. So I did, and now my phone is working again.
Thank you.

Charmer crashed with the new Aku 3.3!

Hello!
I tried to flash my Charmer with the new german Aku 3.3. At first everything seems to be ok, but at 95% it stops and i got the Message: update error- there is an comunication problem! So what can i do? I tried to flash the old rom back but there comes also at 95% a message: invalid command - nfb file cannot be used for your pda!
Please help me !
Greetings Musna!
Ps: can somebody upload a sd image for the mda compact II !

Go to bootloader mode, then try to flash RUU rom (1.x). You can find it on Charmer wiki.

It doesn`t work too, it always stops at 95% has anyone another idea?

did you try hard reset?

Yes i tried hard reset, but it is always in bootloader!

I have also the same problem. Tried to upgrade to version 3.3. Everytime it stops at 80%. I don't know why?! I can repair it with the software and re-run it. But it has the same effect.
Now i will try to downgrade to 2.6 again. I really don't understand what causes the problem. I hope i will get this thing running again....
EDIT: I reflashed the device with the older 2.6 ROM and it is working right now. However I didn't really get why it gets stuck at 80% with 3.3 ?!?!

I´ve got the same: My charmer is in Bootloader IPL 2.06.0001 SPL 3.08.0001
I can´t downgrade to AKU 2: Please order a newer Version.
Every try to upgrade to AKU 3.3 failed at 95% with Error 326.
Is there any help for my charmer???

oh.**** !!!! I got the same problem with them and my first pda uk rom already empty screen and then i try with my scrond pda German rom it the same problem and now just only show in bootloader screen.Have i ask someone who knowage about this he told me that if SLP in you PDA have chang it be hard to repair.So,I think I lose 2 PDA did I try to flash in T-Mobile Official Rom de that i hope to develop it but i hve to kill 2 Charmer.Who take responsibilities,T-Mobile right ???

Ok no problem you can repair it! At first you have to brand your device with the rom you want to! After 95% the Problem will come again! When it stops you have to go with a reset to bootloader again.When your device is in bootloader you have to install the Radio Rom from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302768
After that your device will be able to boot again and it should work!- But the Problem during the installation will stay,so you have always to use this way to flash your Mda compact II!
In the new rom there must be a problem with the radio rom and this causes the broken device.
I`m sorry for my bad english but i`m not used to talk very much! So i hope you understand what i mean!
Greetings from Austria Musna!

that link is broken

Then try this one:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Prophet/Radio_Roms/Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.11.exe
You can find the radio rom also on the ftp server. Prophet> Radio Roms>Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.11.exe
You can try different Radio Rom versions, i have flashed the v.247.11 and it worked.
Normaly it should work!

Thank u so much !!! My Charmer secrond PDA come back have life again and it can working.So,my Charmer first PDA UK rom still empty screen and notthing working when i press any button.Who can slove this problem !!

Musna do you have any massage such as msn

sorry if this post seems to be a repeat , but i tried the search option and the results were not fruitful
a friend of mine , while trying to upgrade to a TNT ROM , didn't HardSPLed the device first , and successfully changed the ROM of the device , now it is stuck on the blue screen with SPL and IPL versions , and no response . for some reason , the device can go to bootloader mode , but it can not be reflashed , and it does not respond to a hard reset command.
please advise on what to do
regards

When it is in the bootloader mode, and connected via USB, is there a little USB icon in the bottom left? If so, simply flash your phones carrier ROM and all should be fine with it again. You can then apply HardSPL and flash to the TNT or any other ROM that you want to. Is your device a G3 or G4 by the way? What are the numbers after IPL and SPL?

well my friend says that the USB icon is visible there , and the device was indeed a G4. the thing is , what exactly should he do , in order to flash the ROM , since non of imate roms work for it. should he use any special software?
i'll greatly appreciate your help

Is he using Vista or XP?

he is using Windows XP , could it be the PC OS that caused interference?

Well, only if it is Vista does it really matter. He needs to get ahold of an original carrier ROM, such as the O2, or T-Mobile one and flash it to his phone, then HardSPL it, then upgrade to 6 or 6.1.

Download and flash Wizard_love Rom,it might do the trick,then HardSPL and upgrade to any wm6 or 6.1 rom.
What exact error it gives while flashing imate official rom ?

well the wizard has been an imate ,and it was flashed with an Original imate ROM already , but no success , any other suggestions?
thanks again

error [294]invalid vendor ID :
This Update Utility can not be used for your PDA phone.Please check your update utility.

Hang in bootloader

Hi @ all,
**** happens, yesterday i tried to upgrade my rom on charmer (mda compact 2).
During installation system hangs on and didn´t finish.
So now i have only the startscreen and can reach the bootloader.
Tried now to flash an original rom, the ruu says error 294 invalid vendor id.
Otherwise the ruu (for no id) ended with error 238 file read.
My bootloder shows IPL 1.12, SPL 1.12 and USB connected.
I have read a lot of threads but cant find a answer for that.
Has anyone a good idea?
Thanks a lot for helping.
I wish all users in that great forum a happy new year

Hi Ronni,
same problem here. Do you found any solution?
Is it right, that your Device not charging and USB is not recognizing too?
Bg
Joy

Are you trying to flash WM6 ROM to your charmer? Because WM6 required IPL and SPL level at least 2.xx.
Did you tried this method to bring charmer back to life?

wow, thank you for your quick response. Hmm, I´m not shure, it´s a PDA from a Collegue, I don´t know, what he do with it. (I know only he try to flash something) Next week he take it to our office, then I try your solution
Thank you again
Joy

URGENT HELP!!! Rhodium stuck keeps rebooting

Hi there, I installed "RUU_Rhodium_HTC_ARA_1.19.415.1_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.27_Signed_Ship" on my phone, and now it is stuck on the reboot screen, and it keeps rebooting constantly. it won't boot anymore.
I tried to install a different Rom, and it still won't boot.
I tried the hot fix rhodium radio 3.46.
I tyried SPL loader. no luck
Any help is greately appreciated.

Do you have Hard SPL?
Have you tried re-flashing the stock ROM for your device, not just "another" ROM?
Dave

yes I have, I tried both.
How I got it to work, is by using rollback SPL.
But now I can not load the Arabic ROM anymore
Because I used my 1 trial.
Is there any way for me to install the Arabic ROM?

Can you boot Windows Mobile? If not, can you re-flash your carrier's ROM (hopefully they have a Ship Exe) whilst in the bootloader (see the Rhodium wiki pages)?

Dave

Have you tried Mtty?
Mine got stuck at bootloader a couple of days ago, because my computer hang in the flashing.
Second time Mtty saves me

I am able to boot into windows now, but i am unable to load the Arabic ROm.
Help please

I've had something similar.
But my phone kept reinstalling itself every time it booted.
Now I know this was a diamond, but I think it might help.
Maybe someone else could look at this as well and give his opinion about it.
The thread about this case is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493131
Hope that helps

i had this problem.. the only way that seemed to work with me is flash stock spl then flash rom.. once the rom is flashed succ run the arabic localization.. finish it n the re-flash hspl.. thats is the only way around it.. i think there's a conflict between the ara setup n hspl.. dont know if it'll work with u, but did with me since my device accepted the rom in stock spl.. hope it works for u ;-)
