I've spent whole day reading through the froum and the trinityguides.info site but can't find any proposed solution to work for my situation.
Device info:
ROM version: 3.00.707.17 (WM6)
ROM Date: 6/29/07
Radio version: 1.46.00.11
I've tried using all 3 versions of hard-spl but they all end up with the same result. With active sync linked and ready, ran the "romupdateutility.exe" at the end the PDA prompts if I want to run the "enterbootloader.exe", the moment I press yes the active sync connection would drop and eventually the program timed out with error "260" while PDA stuck in the tri color screen displaying the following:
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
I've found some similar problems in the forum but those users are using vista however I am running XP sp3 in this case. I've tried all other solutions in the FAQ areas but none of them works.
My unit came with the WM6 already but I just want to upgrade the radio and get some cooked ROM to get faster performance. What am I missing here?
Any help is appreciated.
Once it drops to the tri-colour screen and is in bootloader, run the RUU again. Should be all that you need.
I've tried running it over and over but on the bottom it just kept on saying "serial" when it suppose to say USB.
Anyways, problem solved and it turned out to be the cable. For some reason the cable is good for anything, except keeping the phone connected/recognized while in bootloader mode.
I think this should be listed as one of the FAQ in the trinityguide. This might be a rare problem but it surely took me a lot time to figure out.
on Vista
Hi,
I have similar problem but I'm using Vista (Business). Is there any workaround ?
Regards,

Hi
I have the same problem
spl 1.20 Olipro display serial instead of usb
I tryed several usb cables and still the same
when trying to update the rom it refuse to connect the ppc and end displayng the 260 error no connection
My system is vista and the first time I upgrade everything was fine, I followed all tutorials and no problem at all.
Do you think that could be this new 6.1 Mobile device center I recent install the cause?
best regards
Inabox
The problem isn't the WMC as such more the fact its Vista. Find an XP PC and do it from there.
Hi there, I had the same problem just now and cured it(in Vista). Just upgrade the htc driver in device manager again with "wceusbsh.inf" previous file, then should be ok. It seem to be Vista replaced the driver during it switched to Tri color menu.....

I was performing the radio update on my MDAIII and now he hangs in the bootloader with USB in the upper middle und 2.08 in the under middle. All resets won`t bring it back to life. If I try to reinstall the update all I get is a blank message screen (update from version to version) in my Vista. How can I get out of there.
I did everything what was stated here
The original BAUpgradeUT won`t find my device. The MAUpgradeUt_noID.exe gives me the blank screen with the update from to screen.

I'm using a Vista PC.
After the Radio update to 1.15 the error described above is not to go away yet.
What to do, I'm nearly in tears.
Finally I got it back but with an old Romupdate from T-Online. Is there someone who got the QTC 9090 update (latest one)
That was fast..
im glad you solved your problem.
i think someone here has it.
just post what you need and make it as a title for others to read in the digest.
Im not a expert but is vista the problem??
Most likely.
Failed MDA II flash with vista notebook
Hello everybody,
I just read this thread in hope to find a solution for my problem, which is quite similar to the one described here initially.
I got a used MDA III with T_Mobile ROM. Since I'm a customer with O2, I wanted to change the ROM to O2 as well. I followed the directions given in an other thread here (don't have the link just now) and during the flashing, the flash application suddenly had no connection to my MDA III anymore. It was securely settled in its craddle an connected to my laptop via USB. Now my MDA III is stuck in Bootloader Mode with USB v2.07 displayed on the screen.
Each retry of installing either the O2 or the T_Mobile ROM now meet with the error 101: no connection. I read here that you managed to update successfully with a vista pc. Thus I wanted to ask, how you did that since I just don't seem to find the reason for the connection failing each time.
Here is what i tried to establish connection so far:
* disabled virus scanner & firewall
* unplugged the mda III and plugged it in again. It was recognized as a new device but that didn't help the connection issue
Could you please post what you did to make the update work under vista? Help would be greatly appreciated

Try on computer with Windows XP and kill activesynk (wcecomm.exe on taskmanager/processes)
Maybe it will work. If u cant flash O2 ROM try to use "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe". On my Qtek 9090 allways flash using this APPS and allways work.
U can try too format device first, put it on candle and use "mtty1.42.exe". On XP, kill active sync, and open mtty1.42.exe and select port USB and put OK. Do "Enter" on command and should appear USB>. After this write Task 28. This will format all your PC. Try install SO after this. This command delete all files on PPC. I have attach files that you maybe need.
thankfor the tipp and sorry for my late reply. Since I have no XP PC available i tried the mtty1.42.exe on my vista notebook. When i run it however, it only lists com port 1-3, no usb port. Do i have to make a special configuration on vista for it to work?
Thanks in advance,

In vista i dont know...sorry for my late reply too.... in XP u must kill ActiveSync process called wincecom.exe. in vista, maybe u have to kill the Windows Mobile Device Center....i dont know...
Dont forget, put the Qtek 9090 in Boot Loader Mode (Pressing Power Button + Record Button + Reset), maybe will appear USB and u can format the device.
If this does not work, try on Windows XP....Find a friend with Windows XP and ask him to use his PC only to do that.
Maybe somebody in forum have the Windows Vista and can help u....
Sorry my terrible english....

I have problems with upgrading my Siemens SX66 WM6.0 pro to a WM6.1
The ROM upgrade software tells me there is an Error 101: Connection Error
exactly like this
bilbo--baggins
Every time I try to do the rom upgrade for my PDA2K the device does a soft reset (when it's reset it then reconnects to activsync, and the green logo reappears) and after a while the ROM upgrade software tells me there is an Error 101 Connection Error. It's driving me nuts, I've tried all sorts of variants, soft reset first, hard reset first, USB port, USB2 port, Activesync 3.7.1, activesync 3.8, Windows XP, Windows 98. I don't understand why there is a connection error, because I can connect to activesync correctly, it even reconnects after the ROM upgrade causes it to do a soft reset. Please help! I've even tried following directions to copy the temporary files and running those directly but the result is the same.

can anyone help to solve this problem.
i have no problem with active syn connection, its synchronized with out any problem. my OS is winXP sp2.
This is a well known issue, I am sure its addressed in the Wikki on this site. The solution is don't reset your device when the on screen instructions ask you to do so, just continue with the upgrade.
Enjoy your new device once you have upgraded.
ok
i run upgrade program, the i like in instruction i put sx66 in to the cradle, active sync starting to synchronize well. then i push the next button in the upgrade program, the active sync is turning off and after couple minutes there is a message 'bout Error 101
p.s. the upgrade file i download from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372485
I searched the faq - but couldn't find the answer. I had to use xp on my 8125 for flashing - but the 8925 / kaiser is new to me. Do I still have to use a xp machine to ruu from bootloader for a 6.1 rom?
Possibly
I know that you are looking for a difinitive answer but I have an 8525, My Kaiser just arrived @ the house so I will begin modding it tonight but I haven't had any problems bootloading the 8525 in vista, alot of the threads say that ppl have but it worked eventually. it just takes me a hole lot of time to get a new phone to connect for the first time, after that it's business as usual
I flash and do all sorts of fun stuff using Vista. Just think "Mobile Device Center Connection" instead of "ActiveSync Connection" and you'll be fine.
The absolute best thing you can do is to search for "Flashing with Vista" using the search at the top of the screen. There you will find posts from the Hermes Section that are still relevant. You will rool back the drivers to the Activesync USB drivers & this is good for many reasons. 1. Flashing 2. Using Mtty if something goes wrong.

I follow this rule n everythings ran 100% smooth not a single problem!
Gotcha all - but, when i tried to run ruu from the 6.1 rom, nothing happend when I was in bootloader? Is there a special custom rom for the 8925? I had to use a custom one for my old 8125
Ug - XP did it... i tried oli's sim unlocker but couldn't get the whole job done in vista for some reason.... but I didn't uncheck advanced connections first!
new tilt
Ok I got home around 10 & have been trying to get this thing to work for like an hour & a half now, no luck, when I try to hard spl & it goes to bootloader it stays there for a minute then gives me an error
I think it might have something to do with the newer 1.93 spl - I did eventually get it to work with xp, but vista kept hanging and I did resets on the device even though the instructions in the roms said not to.... man, that's nerve wracking! I think the older 1.92 spl version ones work with the ruu better??
i have searched for a long time and cant find any answers i have a tmobile mda ive tried running the tmobile rom and it didnt work gave me an error any advice please help me i wan wm5 again
Download Official T_mobile wm5 Rom from this link,bet the phone in Bootloaders (RGB screen) and flash to recover back to its default status,then read carefully this guide fron the below mentioned link and do the unlocking and upgrading.
T_Mobile Rom:-

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
thats the prob when i do iit it takes me to the rgb screen and the comp says error any info for that
Exactly what error it displays,it must with an error No. and some explanation about it,can you recall it correctly.Does it display Communication error ?
pmed error 260 communication
Ok,I hope you are doing all this on a WinXP machine,if its a vista,it won't work,WinXP is recommended.Now,before start to flash,close/disable any Anti virus and firewall running on the pc,and also try to close as many applications running on the desktop or background through Task manager,don't surf the net during flash or do any Office work.
Close/disable Activesync,coz its not needed while flashing,end the process 'WCESCOMM.EXE' in the Task Manager,delete any Partnership with Activesync.
To check the connectivity problem,get the phone into Bootloaders (RGB) and hook up the phone with pc via usb cable and watch small usb appear at the bottom of the Bootloader screen,if its there,its establishing connectivity,than its good to go and run the flash,but if its not there,then its a connection problem.It may be the usb cable or mini usb port of the phone is faulty,check this out and do the needful.
Many communications errors are also due to dead or discharged battery,it doesn't have enough juice to complete the flash,hence,results in comm error,always start to flash with a fully charged battery.

Can this be done if I have Vista?
I know someone mentioned installing a rom won't work with Vista, but I was hoping maybe it was just a personal preference. I have two pcs that both run Vista and Linux. My problem is, the wm6 rom (faria crossbow) doesn't work by default and I have a cracked screen so when I try to set it up I can do every step except setting the proxy port #s because when I highlight one there's no way to tap on it, and pressing or holding the select button (the button in the middle of the 4 way joypad) doesn't allow you to edit the values or pop up a context menu. I was hoping to get my $5.99 internet or at least my email and mms working but I got layed off and the holidays are coming so I prob won't have the extra (I know its not much, but I have no job) $30 to buy a new screen until sometime in the new year.
Why not downgrade to the Button ROM, and then upgrade to WM5 afterward?

Ok so I was upgrading my radio on my P3600 to 1.41.00.11 to enable GPS and when it started upgrading, the status bar started on the PDA (as per trinityguides.info's instrucions) but it didn't on my computer. My computer then switched itself off, was dead for about 3 seconds, then restarted itself. I pulled the USB cable from the PDA and now it is stuck in a bootloader style screen, but sais,
TRIN100
IPL-0.50
TRIN100 MFG
SPL-1.30.Olipro
A soft reset does nothing, neither a 'Battery pull-out'
I think that I am stuck in Hard SPL (according to Trinity Guides). Can anyone help me get the PDA back to normal so I can re-flash with the new Radio please? Thanks Alot.
P.s If it is of any relevance, My PDA was not synced with Activesync, But before the flash, I downloaded Activesync 4.5 to fix the 'Generic RNID device' problem on XP. It was identified on my pc as 'Mobile device' in my computer, as far as I can remember.
Sorry if this thread is not new to the site but as a noob (lol) im not really 'broken in' to the site yet. Thanks again for your help.
Hi everyone,
After further research, I reckon I should do the following:
1. In hard SPL, Connect it to another XP computer (my laptop)
2. Untick box called 'Enable USB connections' or whatever in Activesync 4.5
3. Open the ROM of my choice and Double click 'upgrade' or whatever
ROM][WWE][30.10.2008]Karmba_a Diamond Blue For Trinity
4. Wait for the ROM to install
5. Let the trinity soft-reset
6. Done!
7. Upgrade to radio '1.41.00.11' off trinityguides
8. Wait for the radio to install
9. Done!
Please tell me if im wrong so I know if there are any other steps to take. Thanks alot.
Ok guys, I guess, with time I solved my own problem. I did in the end connect my PDA to my XP laptop and used 'splxploit' (thanks to whoever made/programmed this!) which unbricked my device. Now when I tried to upgrade my radio again to a different version, because I have Olipro 1.30 installed instead of 1.20, I was unsuccessful. This shall be what I do next so I guess this thread is not needed anymore.
I'd appreciate it if one of the mod's would close this thread to try and save precious server memory, or can I do it myself (soz im new(ish) to the site!)?
Cheers Guys.
