Hi guys,
I am guessing my problem is the fact that there is something wrong with the devices radio, more the radio rom.
I a while back flashed my dad's KJAM, and it all worked fine, he however has not used the actual phone part of the device since then, and now that he needs it, its not working.
The phone is not in flight mode, and it doesnt ask for a pin, as thats how he set it before I flashed it.
The phone keeps searching for service, and when I try to manually set the network, it keeps comming up with some or other problem.
The phone worked before I flashed it, so I am guessing it is the Radio ROM.
I am thinking of ugrading him to WM6, is this recommended at all? Which thread is best to follow for upgrading him to WM6?
His current details are:
ROM Version: 2.16.9.1 WWE
ROM Date: 2/6/06
Radio Version: 02.07.10
ProtocolVersion 413.1.03
ExtROM: 2.16.9.101
Any help will be appreciated.
P.S. I did just try to the radio rom that is on the xda ftp, for the wizard, I downloaded and tried to load the REAL_Radio_2.61.11 ROM, but that does not want to load for some or other reason, it first complained about the radio update util and said I must update or something, the second time I tried it was a communication error. I am using my JASJAR's USB cable, is this a problem at all?
Try to change the radio rom to 2.19 or higher but i recommend you to flash first the 2.19 if that fails then try more higher.. i guess 2.2x and 2.6x something like that... i forgot..
Ok, u got a link for me for those ROMS?
wait a sec..
If you search and read all the stickies thread you might encounter this one your self..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=268031
There at that thread have a varius radio roms to download..
goodluck!..
post the result afterward
Thanks...I didnt see that one...I will have a look...shot for the help...
Ok, ive tried a few different things.
I tried to get it to connect with activesync, but it just doesnt want to work, I have also attempted a hard reset, and activesync doesnt work either.
Before I did a hard reset activesync 'did something', and a message came up saying it couldnt get an IP address from the server, and on the PC activesync came up with some other thing saying it cannot connect to the Windows Mobile Powered Device.
After the hard reset, I try activesync again, and now absolutally nothing happens on the phone. On the PC the little network icon comes up aqquiring an IP address and dissappears, and the just sits there...
At this point I ran a exe file on the K-JAM, to put it into bootloader mode, I ran the update tool, and again it complained about the update utility, again not changing anything, I ran it, and then it gave a communication / connection error, and a third time also a communication / connection error.
I tried only one radio rom, I am going to try it with the oldest version on that page, if that doesn't work, then I don't know. I tried it with ActiveSync 4.5 and 4.2.
In the mean time I tried the original ROM file from clubimate, that actually loaded, and worked, except the network still isnt working.
I also tried syncing the phone on another pc, and funny enough that worked.
On trying to load the new Radio ROM, it started the update process, and at that moment the phone jumps to bootloader mode, obviously the activesync connection gets lost, the update tool waits a bit, and then suddenly complains about the update tool, saying I need a new version or something.
I have checked the bootloader version of the phone, and it is version 2.x.
I try it again and then I get a connection error....I really need to get my dads phone working again.
Any ideas?
Not sure which Radio's you are trying but go grab a Radio Only ROM. TMobile 2.19.11 UK seems to be a very good and stable one. These are found in the ftp area: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard .
Hope that helps.
Thanks for the help.....ive tried 3 different ones from there, they all do the same thing...so its a bit wierd.....
On the other side of the coin I decided to stick on another sim card, and it works just fine on the other sim card
So the radio is working just fine afterall.....just got back from the service provider and they rekon either the sim card is damaged or its a network error....so lets see what happens.....
Thanks to everybody for the help...
lol..
so its just the simcard after all..
lol yeah....
Although I would still like to know why I can't update the radio anyway...
isnt it because of your activesync?
I don't know what it is...
I used it on another PC alltogether and activesync worked just fine...the update tool interacts with the device, starts the update process, and then the phone goes to bootloader mode, activesync obviously losing the connection, the update tool waits a while and then suddenly says something about the update utility being old or something, I need a new one or what ever....
Then while in bootloader mode I try the update again and then I get a connection error.
Its all wierd.....
There is a problem with my MDA: It continually flashes the volume/ringer control on the screen with the circle with the loudspeaker and mic turned off. This flashes every second or two and when it flashes, prevents pretty much anything else from working or command from executing.
I had a very old TMobile software version on it. I down loaded a much newer version from TMobile in an attempt to get rid of this problem before upgrading to XDA firmware: (The whole thing is very out of warranty)
The upgrade went successfully but the flashing volume / ringer control still flashes.
Does anyone know what this means or if upgrading to XDA will get rid of this problem (or exacerbate it!)
Has anyone noticed IF there is a problem with Puttenham's "Step 17"?
I got around my nerves about upgrading this G3 with a hardware problem in place and appear to be encountering a severe problem with Step 17 which is that it says it is "Your Choice" to go to a 3.08 SPL/IPL. Nowhere however does it say which later ROMs you can apply if you DO choose to go with the 3.08. I applied this to correct what I thought was the hardware issue (reinstalling the T-Mobile ROM at SPL 2.26 didn’t seem to cure it) and the 3.08 did install properly and cured the hardware problem.
I tried different ROMs because I cant seem to understand how to use VoIP or which ROM will let me use this 'feature' or which ROM has this feature built it as some say they have deliberately taken it out.
Suddenly I am getting error messages telling me that the unit needs a later ROM revision to install perfectly.
(WizardLove was the first to do this: It executes in Italian and as I mentioned, just tells me that it needs a later version to work)
So I reflashed with the Molski ROM which is the only one which seems to be around and the flash worked up until 94%. At that stage the progress bar turned to red and there was an error message telling me that I can recover and try again. I did this a few times and SEEM to have bricked my Wizard (When the Molski upgrade failed, attempts to chkdsk, reboot, delete all temp files etc failed). The unit will now only boot to the three-colour screen? Further attempts to flash seem to see and read the device and tell me either that there is no ROM on it and would I like to upgrade? Followed by this unexplained 'USE LATER ROM'. (There may be a problem with installing the T-Mobile ROM on an unlocked Wizard with a 3.08 IPL/SPL However it has to be said that Molski is, still, the only ROM which runs and it inevitably stops at the same position, the 94% mark when the MDA progress bar goes red, the unit shuts down, the upgrade process thinks about it for a while and ultimately reports ERROR [302] UPDATE ERROR)
Alternatively they (for example ROM Update Utility 2.00.1) tell me that there is no communication between the PC and the Wizard. Actually ActiveSync 4.5 does show no connection between the device and the PC, which I suppose I would expect if the Molski ROM failed to complete? Device Manager seems OK with the unit being in place though? And I cant believe this is important as there obviously IS connection between the computer and the PDA
Easymob said he would let users have a path to a ROM they could use but no where is it set out which ROMs you can use of the ones you actually CAN find?
I have also tried the Xelencin ROM which initially tells me that it cant see the PDA. Then it admits that it can and tries to unlock the CID (which surely must be already unlocked by now if I have upgraded to the later SPL??)
I am not sure I have a totally bricked unit, - The Xelencin T-Mobile ROM MUST be doing something because it does successfully run the RAPI unlock and after a few error messages telling me it can't access the MDA, reports DONE! But then it tries to run Machinagod's HTC Wizard Unlocker and gets stuck. It shouldnt get stuck at this step as I must already BE unlocked! It should pass this step.
I can hear hdd movement (not churning) but the program doesn’t progress past this step. Ultimately this carries on for hours and the Wizard shuts down I presume when the battery fails as the charge function doesn’t seem to work in ROM upgrade three colour screen mode. Plugging the charger in now doesnt seem to do anything
Again as the program was built for the 2.26 SPL, I still cant figure out whether these available ROMs should run on the 3.08 which I followed in the STEP 17.
MEANWHILE BACK AT THE RANCH: Is there a more obvious answer to why Molski always fails at precisely the same 94% position?
I've gone through all of the processes, CID unlocked, unlocked, 2.26/2.26, blahblah. Had all of the WM6 roms running no problem, but had major issues getting SMS and calls incoming.
So..uh, I downloaded the WM5 Faria thing.. Was installing it.. Got to 99%, and got a freaking BSOD with a USB driver as the error/mdump.
Now NOTHING will install on my phone from the boot screen.
I get no connection with every RUU installer. I've tried wizardlove, faria wm6, titanium, faria wm5, cingular wm5...
Nothing.
I'm going to reboot and hope that there's an issue with my computers USB at this point. Oh boy.
No difference. Awesome.
When I go into activesync (4.5) and click device connect, it goes through the modem/comport/usb list and shows "Error" at USB.
ERROR [264, 274] : CONNECTION
ERROR [302~318] : UPDATE ERROR
ERROR [320~328] : INVALID COMMAND
These errors seldom occur. However, if one of these errors occur, it could not be recovered and the device had to be sent back to the customer service center. In this case, you have to flash a new ROM code.
Thats the error I get..264.
Edit:
Somehow, after rebooting, renstalling active sync, rebooting, reconnecting, switching ports, and trying all of my roms again... WM6 Titanium just got installed! gasp
edit 2: SAVED!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just for future refrence You will not get an ActiveSync connection unless the phone completely boots into windows. Congrats on getting it fixed.
Hi all,
Trying to install the TomTom version I got with my Kaiser (TyTNII) on to my Diamond. I run it with the phone connected via activesync and all goes well until I get a message saying:
Setup Error
Unable to install application. Please update your device ROM to the required version before trying again.
Anyone know a hack to get this to work or do I have to go and buy a retail version of TomTOM?

I'm trying to flash a ROM on to my HTC HD7 and I am having a problem when I try to establish an Activesync connection with my phone. I have HSPL all set up on my device (an unlocked T-mobile HD7 on Rogers) the phone OS version is 7.0.7004.0 and my bootloader version is 3.1.2250.0(119314).
I have tried to soft-reset, hard-reset etc. and these things haven't worked. When I run Task 29 I get to the part where it tries to verify if I have an active connection with Activesync (or Sync Center or whatever) and it fails to work. I have a Windows 7 32-bit computer. I have checked my flash versions, .net framework version and everything in between, nothing seems to be wrong and can't figure it out!
If anyone can help me establish a connection with the Sync Center I would be very grateful.
Thanks!
