Unable to Load Bootloader - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 Software Upgrading

I have tried hitting record + power + reset and still no dice.
I did this last Jan to my BA with few problems, put in the wm6.1
Wanting to install this one WM6.5
I also installed the Wizard Service Tool and it doesnt seem to work. It will give me info but the hard reset and other rom features don't want to work.
is there a workaround for gettin to the bootloader? Or should I take this all as a sign not to brik my phone? ;D
thanks,
chela

hi , i'm new on the forum...i think i've the same problem, on my PDA2K..
I try to install a new rom from wm2003se, using a file called "preparazione BA"( i think i've unlocked the extrom), then i normally setup with the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe..But now, when the upgrading is completed to wm6, i'm not able to load the bootoption..i can see 4 colour bands (green blue red white) but no option to boot. The rec+photo+reset seem not to work.
Could anyone help me\us??
Regards at all
Davide

after 2 hours..here are some news: my pda2k display became with the 4 color but there was writen something about R none, G none and (version onf the rom i tryed to install) then pressing rec+cam i saw for little fraction of second the menu enable kitl ,clean registry, etc.. and then suddenly the wm6 starts. After installing the OS ask me to reset..Well, it return to the same 4 color, and the only word i see is R1.11.00
I'm getting crazy...
Please big chef tony help me!
i don't know what to do now...i'm little down
Davide

...lol maybe because I dont do this often enough, but this case was solved with a little bit of RTFM!
I didnt realize I was pressing the wrong fsking button! derr!
Here is Chef Tony's post...should carve it into my desk!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BlueAngel_WM5_For_Beginners

Hello, my ppc always dispays the four band with R1.11.00 written..After a lot of reset(often unplugging battery) and photo+rec, i was rarely able to display the boot option, but here is strange what is written(attached photo n°2): R None, G None, D 1.21 Michy.. Then pushing "mail" the OS start installing wm6, then, it ask me to boot so i would be able executing extrom to install cab file.It resets and then it appears the famous four band with R1.11.00
Any idea??
I've finished mine....Aww!!
Regards
Davide
P.s. think it's important: my bootloader is v 2.08

i've solved my problem..reading on other forums, they suggest to install a rom WM5, where there was radio upgrade too..After i was able to install WM6.1 ! Now..i have to wait..and crossing my fingers!
Thank you all, if anybody has question ask me, i'll happy to help you
Bye

Nothing strange about what is in photo #2! That is the debugger screen.
Looks like you got it rolled back to the original ROM but if you decide to put the latest stable ROM 6.5 on there you're going to have to follow the Chef's directions in the above supplied link.
Good luck,
Chela

glad you found it out, you are right, there was something wrong with the radio, which is why in screenshot #1 there is only the radio listed and i think that's also why in #4 the comm icons are red, i've never seen that before, but could also be a custom skin in that rom.
brujeria is right, there is nothing wrong with the 2nd and 3rd screenshot, except for the 2nd one only showing the rom and no radio or protocol, meaning that the device was probably resetted by pulling out the battery and not pushing the reset pin with the stylus, unless that was also a radio issue.
unless you already started customizing your device you should probably think about hard resetting it once again and trying if that works, or even re-flash the rom, without flashing the radio, that way you'd know for sure, if from now on you'll always have to flash a "baked rom" (usually a term for a cooked rom, together with radio and extrom, a full flash, in this case i mean rom and radio rom, since the extrom is not really flashed anymore).
with best regards,
Chef_Tony

i've already customized...a little! Now, everytime i soft reset i read this: R 1.15.00 , G 1337.45 , D 1.21 michy.
I've no problem at moment..but i hope i won't never hard reset!
This Rom (WM6.1 included only Rom upgrade) it's nice, but i'm interested about WM6.5..anyway i think to keep this one untill a problem will come out
P.s. Like you say, now the antenna isn't red anymore..it's bright green
Thank you a lot for the support guys!

No data from device in MyUpgradeUt

My first post after reading for 10 hours looking for the right answer...
I guess the answer is out there but I just can't find it so please don't kill me....
I am trying to upgrade my Qtek 9090 (Blue Angel) to WM5. I've been very careful not to destroy my toy, and when trying to flash I stop, many times now and with different ROM's.
The problem:
When running MaUpgradeUt_noID on my screen it looks like the program shall fetch out data from my device, Rom version, ext rom, radio etc. It should also tell what versions to upgrade to, the only thing there is rom to be upgraded to, not ext. rom or radio.
I cut it there, afraid of ruining my device.
There is no "how to for dummies" with screenshots but I think I do it right, putting the device into bootloader mode and the screen said USB.
Is it just me and/or my device or can anybody help me out here?
What windows version you´re using?
Depending on the ROM you are uploading the screen can show many different things. But NOID version with WM5 used with BlueAngel shows ONLY sth like 5.xx.xx in new rom version and all other fields are empty - this looks odd but this is normal.
take out your SD card

any help? everything seem to work fine untill stage 3. i tried to do it alone, but nothing,
i even tried the 1.42 radio rom update, the wm6 from heli and others. using ma......noid instead of the ba....
tried mtty, usb, task 14 0, 28 55aa, 0, and nothing. even set...
any idea where to look?
c on, this thing is still alive!!!

you need to open your ba and check the switch that works with the battery holder natch.
try to flash your ROM in that screen...
that's the BOOTLOADER Screen...
the thing is... that "sometimes" the RUU doesnt recognize that our BA is already in that mode after executing EnterBL.exe(Enter Bootloader), so it hangs or sometimes throw an error that you are disconnected.
and since your BA is already in the "BL" Mode.
try and restart flashing from that screen, it would go smoothly...
P.S.
to be sure...
BEFORE YOU START FLASHING...
make sure you have enough batteries left.
AND
kill all the RUU Processes from the task manager... (Ma...NoID.exe)
thank you for the input
i really apreciate it. a lot. i need ideas.
unfortunately SilverSamurai tried everything u said, and nothing worked. keep telling me error 112. even after i removed the enterBL.exe and after trying diffrerent versions. all with ma...noid.exe.
im ordering the screwdrivers, but im sorry Sandstorm, but i dont know exactly what i have to look for.
im trying to find the switch that works with the battery holder natch in wiki with no luck. ill keep working on this.
thank you in advance. hope i can solve this to close the thread and being helpful in any way.
nice day
pardon me for correcting... it's the battery "Notch" switch...
it's the switch behind the "thingy" that you push to lock the battery in place.
too bad i dont have another camera with me, so all i can do is describe it.
when you remove the back cover...
just look "bottom-center" where an "insy-bitsy" toggle switch reside.
... i'll try to search for a solution too... and post anything i find in here...
ok
thank you for the input again.
i finally open my ba, and i get to the switch that works with the battery holder notch, it seems to work fine, still, dont know if it has to be up or down while working with the ba. i guess down, but im not sure.
do you know?
thanks again
i found this posts from another thread it is titled Error 112 CE ROM Update Error it mentioned requiring a clean pc setup.
i hope that works.
im still on it
thanks
but im giving up. ill keep on it while i can. nothing worked for me.
thanks any way. i love this forum.
now on nike! touch dual Spanish Version....
sniff sniff
ok
i opened it and i taped it w the bettery holder notch.
just in case anyone can help me telling me whether im in the right direction.
thank you for your the help
ill keep fighting
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JG4fmly_Fiw
push the notch up...(grrr... i thought it was a switch... press down... you're right)
have you tried a different battery?
i dont recall the Radio having 1.42.00 versions... that's WM2003SE and it has the radio version of 1.13.00....
just start with upgrading the Radio Rom ONLY... upgrade it with the one found in the BA Wikis... Version 1.15.00.
Then if it is successfull try flashing with Xplode's WM6.1 found in stickies...
dont bother with the extrom... just install/flash those two above....
and use XP not Vista/ Remove the SD Card.
post what happens...

Kaiser sleep function does strange things... (FIXED)

After I did a hard reset, a strange problem appeared.
When I press the power button to put the device in sleep, it does, but after 4-5 seconds it automaticly switches back on.
I tried several things such as soft resetting the device, close all running programs and even another hard reset, but it won't work. I didn't install any programs so far...
More information about my ROM version etc.
Official HTC NLD Rom WM 6.1
ROM Version 3.29.404.0
Radio 1.65.17.56
I hope someone knows something I can try...

i see you have already tried the following but i'm going to write down how i would go about debugging the problem anyway. first, i would try the following steps in the following order to ensure it is not a software issue (it seems you have already eliminated the possibility that this is a software issue):
0. ensure you are using the correct hard SPL for your ROM. if you have never flashed a custom ROM and if you are using the ROM that came with your phone factory installed, you need not worry about this step or step 2 onwards
1. hard reset your phone and check the behavior of the sleep button BEFORE installing ANY of your favorite cabs and software...you have already done this
2. it is recommended to re-download the ROM image and re-flash it to minimize the possibility of a corrupted download or a bad flash
3. it is also recommended to hard reset your phone immediately after flashing the ROM at the point where it says "tap here to begin", i.e. before the screen alignment wizard
4. once again, test the behavior of the sleep button BEFORE installing ANY of your favorite cabs and software
now lets assume it is a hardware issue...here is a nugget of information that might help you. i remember reading a thread here started by a person who described a problem very similar to yours. it involved a "stuck" camera button. you see, the camera button is TWO-stage...and if the half-press stage is "stuck", your phone will never go to sleep properly. search for this thread for more information.
finally, if this is indeed a hardware issue, it seems strange that it appeared only after you did that very first hard reset...but life is full of coincidences !
good luck!
thanks for your suggestions, I will try them and post results.
no success
I tried the things you suggested, but it doesn't work. I also tried the power button when it says "tap your device..." but the device woke up after 4-5 seconds also.
I checked my buttons (especially the camera button, but that one seems to be well... I can feel the two "clicks" and I can take a picture in a normal way)
I'm thinking it might be a ROM problem or something like that... (but my problem is, if I want to go back to the previous official HTC ROM, the 6.0 one, I probably have to use HardSPL, but I don't like that much because of warranty...)
Ok other question... Can I install the Dutch Vodafone ROM on a non-branded HTC device, or could I get VendorID errors or something similar if I want to keep the original SPL?
fixed!
Ok, I fixed it after installing HardSPL 3.29 and flashing the latest WWE ROM...
Now my power button works perfectly!

I Think I've Bricked My Blue Angel????

Hi,
I am new to attempting ROM upgrades!
I bought my BA on ebay it runs on wm2003se but have never used it as a phone because it needed unlocking so i thought i would try to upgrade then unlock.
After many failed rom upgrade attempts one finally started to install, it got to 100% then i was promped to soft reset my XDAiis which i presume is the normal proceedure?
So i did this, but now it is stuck on the blue, green, red and white screen displaying,
No GSM
HTC BlueAngel D 6. 50.28.WWE
I have tried hard reset
I have tried to install the O2 rom that came with it but it says its the incorrect country version!
Any ideas or is it Dead???
HELP
first: try hard resetting!
the procedure changed in comparison to wm2003se, so you have to press reset+power, and then immediately press camera+record. a menu shows up, showing
Enable KITL YES
clear reg. hive NO
format storage NO
using the camera and record buttons, change these entries to
Enable KITL NO
clear reg. hive YES
format storage YES
and press the mail button to confirm, after some time you will see the device boot for the first time.
probably that solves your first problem, but since you seem pretty unexperienced (no offense), it probably unveils more problems. you should also make sure to read this carefully, maybe follow the upgrade wizard again, to make sure you formatted your old extrom and resized it, have a working radio rom, and to make sure you know what you are doing and how to go on improving you BA experience:

Hi,
Thanks for your reply i have tried hard reseting and still have the same problem, any other suggestions???
run through the wizard in the link above, you will need to downgrade to wm2003se again, resize the storage space, upgrade to wm6.5 doing everything exactly as written in the wiki and you will have no problems, here there is the step you are currently facing:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5
the downgrade from wm5 or above down to wm2003
hello !
my screen stay white after the
"Enable KITL NO
clear reg. hive YES
format storage YES"
part. How can I do ? thanks
and it's a xv6600
i am not an expert when it comes to the different names of the device, but a quick google search told me, your device is not a blueangel, but a cdma device, namely a HARRIER. the harrier does not support wm5 and up, so you should flash your original shipped rom back, to get it back to work.
if you do not have your shipped rom present (on cd) you can go to your carrier's website and try and download it there. if, however, it is not listed there anymore, you can go download it here:

all credit for the shipped rom archive goes to xplode.

Flashing to new rom

I'm sorry for this post, because the answer is probelly somewhere on this forum. But I can't find it.
I have my diamond for about a year now and I like to install a custom rom with windows mobile 6.5. But I can't seem to figure out what I need for this.
I already chosen a rom, but I have no idea if it is any good, because there are so many roms out.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563245
So my first question, is this rom any good?
Second question, what type of hard SPL do I need, Do I need the normal one that requires roms to be signed or do I need the developers edition?
Third question. Do I need MTTY for this or can I first try it without MTTY?
And the last question, if I don´t like the rom is it easy to install the original rom again or do I need to do something special for that.
I hope you guys can answer my questions so I can start flashing my rom.
Grtz, Eric
EDIT: I tried installing hard-SPL unsigned, but get an error that it can't connected to my phone. But it is connected using windows mobile device center
why do you want to flash a new rom?
ive recenetly done the same, i wanted to flash my rom as the original was tied to vodafone and some of the features like youtube, facebook, and opera wouldnt work as they wanted vodafone connection ( im on virgin mobile).
anyway after much trial and error i in the end found it versy easy.
3 simple steps. first flash your bootloader
i found the best and easiest one was spl olinex version 4.0
u need to softboot to do this ( hold the down volume and switch on phone, have usb cable connected then use the flash util provided with the above.
once thats done you need to flash rom the radio
again the one out there that seems the best to use is version 1.00.25.05 diamondruu radio
again soft reset so you get the try colour screen and run the flash rom update ( takes about 2 mins at most)
finally choose your version of win mobile 6.5 ( i got windows revoluton 7.1 ultra clean edition)
do soft reset again, then run the flash update and again this takes about 5-10 mins for this)
all worked perfectly for me and it was my first try.
though i will be changing it as the revolution is missing some vital aspects i like.
i know its basic but hopeully you can see its not the daunting prospect some people make out though any rom upgrade carries a minot risk i found this to be as easy as 1,2,3
good luck

Because I would like some new features on my phone. Like wm 6.5 or a new version of manilla. It's getting a little boring having the same phone for over a year.
@miramele, thanks for your response. I'll give it a try tomorrow and hope I won't brick my phone.
let us know how you get on, it took me several attempts as each time i was trying while within the phone itself, if you hold the down volume key and power on the phone you get the tri colour screen, in this mode i had 100% success each time.
doing it within the OS with phone on it just stuck at 0%.
And since then i have re flashed it with a diff version of wm 6.5 that i prefer and all is good.
the version i flashed to is the manila 2.1 with the latest touchFLO 3d so ive not even bothered with Spb mobile shell though may add this later.

Thanks for the advice, if I understand correctly I have to get to the tri-color screen and then install hard-spl? But can I connect to my laptop while in this mode?
I'm gone try it tomorrow because I didn't have any time today.
Thanks for all the help, especially miramele.
I made the step and am now running a custom rom without any issues. Many thanks for the help and for pulling me over the line.
