Error 246 Device not responding

I'd bought my htc p3600 pro (black, free from sim-lock & free from any carrier) from London.
As advised by TRINITYGUIDES.INFO site I tried to do HardSPL with all the three available HardSPL files, but of no avail.
When the HardSPL's progress bar comes(on pc) it gives a message on my phone " Enterbootloader.exe....This may harm your device...Do you want to continue.." I pressed yes & the process stopped & gave an error on pc "Error 246 Device not responding" & on phone screen showed the bootloader with
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
I did soft reset on my p3600 & its working as usual with it original spl infos.
I want to put official WM6 SEA version(ROM+RADIO) on my phone...Please help.

I too have the same message when I try to upgrade to hard spl as per teh guide here: http://trinityguides.info/index.php...ask=view&id=25&Itemid=66&limit=1&limitstart=2
Can anyone help? I have tried updating active synch... could there be anything else?
I have flashed my rom befroe to unlock the GPS but I now want to upgrade to WM6.
I guess the hard spl is a failsafe and I can skip this step?
Thanks

Have the same [Error 246]! How can I definitly fix it?
Hi,
first of all, sorry for my poor English. I try to explain my problem so good I can... I hope you can help me.
I have the "[Error 246] Device not responding" problem.
I have used a lot the "search"-function and I have found a lot of posts which propose the same solution "restart the Rom upgrade another time". Ok I did it and my PDA works very well, but now I would like to solve the problem radicaly... How can I solve this problem? Should I use SPLexploit (I have found the guide on trinityguides.info) and then reflash a Hard-Spl?
Thx a lot
ciao
Tompo

Some specifications....
Sorry.... I have a P3600 White with Olipro 1.20 and rom Elias 1.9 SE Lite...

Before flash manually enter bootloader. After start the rom update utility. (As www.trinityguides.info suggest). You will not get error 246 any more

thanks for answer
Many thanks for anwser...but...
Is this the only solution? If is so, then everbody has this problem, isn't so?

Here is written to flash rom you should manually enter to bootoader. In this case, you will not have error 246.
Most of the people know this, so they have not this problem
Those who not manually enter bootloader can get error 246, and this way of flashing is not as safe as the manual bootloader way.
(because in this case you use the spl uploaded by RUU, not the hard-spl on the PDA)

Ok, now I really understand
Ok, this is a very good anwser, short and clear... thanks...

Please Advice
Thank You
Note: I Have HTC Diamond2 (Topaz) Without Sim Louk

Hi Me has the trinity 3600 as a VPA GPS vodafone branding, and i get the same error message trying to run the bootloader and entering tricolor screen, ---> error 246 aber manually starting into bootlaoder and restatrting the romupdateutil.exe same error 260 no connention...
So you guys have a working version of the updating ?
And please remove all the links which are not working, linking a solve for the 246 problem, there are nomore links available...
thanks
Dome

I found a way to solve the problem 246 go in you mobile device, -->start -> settings-> connections ->USB to PC open this. Remove the hook @ Advanced networksettings activation! ---> click OK--> close
try again the bootloader etc, then on the tricolore reboot screen is shown USB in the lower white field and the bootloader can do its routine complete.
Have Fun with flashing the phones!
Testet with original German Vodafone available ROM " vpa_comp_gps_RUU_Trinity_VF_DE_1_23_162_4_6275_1_29_00_01_13000_108_Ship.exe "

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?

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

But how to get the image from SEUS?

Mate, you seem to have HardSPLed your X1 (because of the "Olinex"). Usually SEUS does not work anymore then. You have to download an image e.g. here in the forum. You can find lots right in this section. You have to decide between a Stock-ROM or a custom one. Then you install it just like you did with the HardSPL. How to do this exactly you can find more than once in the "Stickies".

I see someone told that if you're using Vista, just login with Admin user then it's ok

anmeldung...try restoring the original SPL even if it shows error, do this about 3 times, then attempt the SEUS update about 4 times.
strangely enough this method worked for me and SEUS also updated the rom from 0.72 to 0.78 before they identified my phone...now everything is back to normal

Please Help!

Hello
first an foremost i would say im an idiot. i tried to "Micro SD method" my spl back to stock...( i dont not know why i would do such a thing). Now i have stock spl... but no rom. if anyone could please help me i would be forever grateful. i have no clue why i would do something stupid like this. if anyone could please help thatd be great.
it says the following
RUUNBH
Kovs100
SPL-0.72.0000
Microp1-787
microp2- 707
Continue to Upgrade ROM
Please wait...

had the same problem, you still have a rom but your phone keeps hanging in the SPL Screen.
Please search fot mTTy i think i wrote a short instruction in the hard spl thread.
it was something with the : set 14 and set 16 command...
Got it fixed easily with this way...
regards

Try putting a stock rom as kovsimg.nbh on your ms and boot in the spl. Maybe it will recognise the update and flash for you

i tried doing the Micro SD, Official rom. and it all says its loading.
im trying to do this mtty thing but i cant seem to get it working.
meska i cant seem to get the same screen you got, if you could elaborate a little bit more.
so far i have mtty isntalled on windows xp...and a potentially bricked phone. any further steps, please?

trin100 D810 HELP!!!

please help me to flash rom always stack on 13%..
please help me..

Please try to read posts regarding updating your unit. You can brick your phone if you don't know what you are doing.
Additional information:
What is your present ROM version?
What ROM are you trying to install?
is your unit unlocked?
Does your unit have hard SPL installed?

I have the same problem
but can't instal bootloader or flash any ROM
I tryed to flash the original rom but it stucks to 13%
I tryed to instal many bootloaders but when it cames to 100% it says that image is corruped (error 270)
can any one help me ??

up guys.. please i really need your help..
i want my trinity back..

OK. I've had that problem before when I first got my Trinity. Been through a lot of trial and errors before I was able to do it correctly. I don't know if this can help but this is how I did it. Usual warning.... I am not responsible if you brick your device.
Just look for the following files in the Trinity thread and install them in the following order:
1. HTC Trinity SIM & CID Unlock - v1
2. Install Olipro 1.20
3. Now I don't know if this should be done but I read somewhere that you should upgrade your Radio version so I installed "Trinity_Radio1.56.70.11"
Even though I have done these steps already I always do them again WHENEVER I install a new ROM. It does not hurt to repeat them.

If you are getting "error vender id" message then it means that your unit is locked again so you have to unlock it again like I said in my previous post. You must have installed an official ROM previously which will lock your phone again.

please help me to get my trinity back
i think that my phone has been locked because i can't instal any ROM or HardSPL
I tryed to flash windows d. 3.3 Dmore (wm 6.1) but when i boot windows it stucks in the green screen so i can't run cid unlock.
i cant send the phone for servise because i get it from a friend and i havent the receipt
please help me to get my trinity back

thanks guys.. my trinity is alive again.. hehehe
