New To the recent phone pocket pc's

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!)

Almost Bricked HD

Hi everyone,
I've got a HTC Touch HD from Telstra, been using it for a long time. Recently the USB has stopped working correctly. I can charge it fine but can't get it to connection in Activesync mode or as USB Storage.
I have ruled it to be the phone:
Tried two PCs, even the PS3 doesn't detect anything is connected (Just shows phone is charging)
Tried XP, Vista and Windows 7 (fresh installed).
I have hard reset the phone many times.
It is under warranty, I have flashed Dutty's Extreme rom onto it and want to simply put a stock rom on it (preferrably Telstra) so I can send it away - or see if that fixes it.
I can't install any unsigned roms as I need USPL (via USB), I can't install signed roms as if I put them on there I get '00028002 Not Allow'
Where can I got next? I can still put BLACIMG.bbh files on the storage card but can't get any to flash.
It has SPL 1.54 and Radio 1.14.25.24.
I really want to flash it with: Duttys HD WM6.5 R7.
Thanks.

Previously you could flash cooked roms, but now you are unable to flash any, correct?
When in bootloader does it still change from 'serial' to 'usb'? Have you tried another usb cable?

Yes I could flash cooked roms, only by using USPL.
In bootloader when I have the cable plugged in it is blank where it should say USB, I take it out and it says 'Serial'
I have also tried the cable from my old Touch Diamond (which both cables work fine with the Diamond).

What happens when you try and run either USPL or HSPL?

On the computer? It can't detect USB. Both computers don't even get to the stage where it installs drivers.
The PS3 would even say 'Unknown USB Device Connection' but it doesn't. I just get power through USB to charge it, that is it.
Is there a rom I can flash to my phone via the storage card in the state it is in?

Unfortunately you cannot flash through storage card unless you have USPL on device.

Sad face. lol.
Can I get USPL or HSPL on through the Storage card... wishful thinking here.
Can I send it to HTC and pay for it to be repaired? Will they even touch it being a modified phone? Maybe I'll just send it through Telstra and see what happens.

USPL & HSPL both require usb to be installed and cannot be installed through SD card as phone needs to be in bootloader.
You could send phone to be repaired but I'm sure the cost would be high and going down warranty route wouldn't work either as you've voided warranty already by using cooked rom.
Have you followed correct guide for installing drivers?

maybe it's something as silly as "Enable Faster Data Transfer" under USB to PC settings :/ just had problems connecting mine until i unticked it, even though i never turned it on or off, seems to work sometimes, other times not :/

Here is your only choice though.
After upgrading to new ROM, try it again whether it can connect to pc or not?
Connect your SD card to PC through microSD card. Copy all files from your SDcard to new folder in your PC. Then, right click on the microSDcard disk-->full Format by FAT32 (this step is very important).
After formatting SDcard, copy back all files to SDcard . Rename .nbh to BLACIMG.nbh (for Blacktone) and copy it to SDcard.
Insert your SDcard back to Touch HD. Turn off your device by Power button.
Go to Boot loader mode. Push and hold Vol. Down + press Power button.
After that your device with have a white screen with text " Press to power button for continue upgrade" press power button and it will start upgrade Rom.
You can check this video for more practical actions on youtube.(this video for HTC diamond2 but it's almost the same with Blacktone just different in rename step)
Hope it helps and cheer

But that's the thing I can't get any rom to work through the BLACIMg.nbh storage method
I think I'm either going to have to stick with the current rom, have no usb transfer.
Or pay up to repair it
EDIT: I already tried the "Enable Faster Data Transfer" and that didn't help Thanks.

Where is your MicroSD card ? Connect your SD card to your PC via MicroSD card.

Right,
you don't need anything installed on your phone to run uspl.
Put blacimg.nbh on your sd card with a card reader.
Now with the card still unplugged put your phone into bootloader mode.
Now connect it to your computer, does serial change to usb??
Now insert your storage card.
Now run crackwhores USPL GUI and fingers crossed it should start flashing.
If that doesn't work let us know!
Also, what cable are you using, the one that came with the phone or a normal usb one??
Cheers,
Jake

No usb connection
So if i don´t get the usb connection in tri-color mode i´m in big trouble right?
I got the same problem
Mine is only saying serial on three diffrent computors... this is not good, i went to buy my self a new phone.

If i were you i would try 2 things.
There was a temporary spl which you would run from inside the OS and then that would give you access to either uspl or hspl.
If that wouldnt work, i would buy a usb replacement kit from ebay and install it myself tbh.

In the same situation
I too, tried everything under the sun for my Telstra HD but cannot get the USB connection to work before. Here's my short thread. I'm pretty sure there isn't anything that can be done flashing wise through the SD card because of our SPL 1.54.0000.
After a week of stuck in this situation I was going to take my phone to a shop and have the usb port replaced. I'm sure it will cost an arm.
In terms of replacing the port myself, has anyone tried? Is it tough to do? I thought soldering skills were involved.

Once you open up device warranty is voided permanently. If you paid for a replacement usb port and something else happened you could still return under warranty, but once opened option of warranty is forever closed!

As of now, its the only route because the lack of original spl has already voided my warrenty... =(

Ha. Today must be my lucky day!
I was a breath away from spending $75 to have my HD ripped apart to replace the usb port yesterday. But all of a sudden the port once again works and is recognized in bootloader mode.
All I did was hard reset once, used as normal, and plugged in via usb to charge with power on (just to see if it might work this 187429th time) and the usb menu (activesync, disk drive...) came up. I retried. It didn't work (just as I thought). Went to bootloader and it also didn't work. Restarted, usb menu was up again. Rebooted bootloader a few times and suddenly usb came on.
I will proceed to flash hspl 1.56 immediately.
To the dudes that still can't connect: DON'T GIVE UP YET, KEEP TRYING!

Daimond display flickering and can not Sync with a PC

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

[Q] Sync over USB problem

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.

Usb problem
Hello,

usb probem
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

X1 huge problem: starts with bootloader, not recognized by pc via usb

Hi guys, for several days i've been trying to come up with a solution regarding my X1.
I have read many similar posts implying different solutions with this problem, tried tons of methods to make it work, but unsuccesfull.
Anyway...a few days ago I recieved an X1 from my cousin. No hardware problem, scratched or dropped device.
The main problem is (i've met this problem on different posts, but no one could find an answer): the X1, when booted, it starts on bootloader/ flashscreen (the 4 colour screen) everytime showing info :
KOVS110
SPL-0.78.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-707
If I connect the X1 to the PC via USB, or if I plug the charger in, it boots normally, and the phone works just fine. ANOTHER PROBLEM is that the PC does not recognize the X1, so I cannot HardSPL it using OliNex....!!!!?!
I know the current SPL version is a SSPL, so I can't flash custom ROM's. It's frustrating because I've spent days trying to get a solution, I'm not a newbie on this one, I've done it many times before.
I used up all the methods I could think of, including flashing an official ROM, radio, and returning to SSPL (I recogn it wasn't the case...but still). In this moment, I flashed it to Official Vodafone UK bla-bla-R3 doesn't matter, because it is not branded.
I really could use your help, guys, because I can't take my charger or usb with me everywhere I go just to start my phone, in case I need to turn it off or something.
I'm stuck, and don't know what else to do, I know the procedure to HardSPL and flashing a custom/ official ROM, but I can't go on because of the fact that by any ways, I can't get the X1 to be recognized by ANY PC. Tried ActiveSync on XP, WMDC on Vista and Win 7...the Mitty procedure is buggy, couldn't get pass the recognizing of the USB (lol !!!!)....also tried using SE Update Utility Service, no result since the X1 is not recognized... It already has SPL 0.78.0000, so I guess SEUS fails from the point of idea.
I've also tried using X1-Manual-SSPL.exe....no chance..!
Tried also to flash from MicroSD a custom ROM (knowing and assuming through the absurd that it will work inspite having SPL 0.78.0000), but it always get's stuck at the grey "Loading..." screen
I would really apreciate some proffesional help, because I'm starting to think I'm not skilled enogh for an X1 ))) I don't have the necessary resources at this point to bring the phone to a GSM Service
So...kindly...PLEASE HELP !!!

How about usb cable? is it still good? have you try to connect the usb with other devices?

the usb works fine, I've tried different usb cables and on different PC's with the X1. As I said, I used up all the ways possible to make it work...

some guys on other thread have the exact same problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1611223
That's mysterious...
