Here's something weird...
I have an early model PH10A XDA II...
was on ROM 0.81.00 USA
Radio: 1.05.09
Protocol: 1337.10b
Date 8-11-03
I'm trying to upgrade it to the latest i-mate ROM.
I have gotten to the point where it says "The current software is now being erased....the update should take 30 minutes." but the first time...it gave me an error and it asked me to reboot the device and try again...since then...
....it stays there for hours with no update, no errors, or feedback of any kind. All I get on the RUULog.log is "17:24:10 Connection with USB"..then nothing happens...
I have tried re-boots, hard boots, taking the battery out and waiting a few mins, making sure the battery is charged, I'm on XP and the latest Activesync 3.7.1, also I kill the wces...exe. app and still sits there..
I have tried the O2 version, the UK-02-version, himalayaupgradeut_197.exe...all to no avail...
Any other things I should attempt? I'm bootloader 0.23....
I'm still scouring the groups to see if anyone had this problem..
thanks!
re:Weird problem with early model HTC XDA II with 0.23 btldr
Thanks to these posts I can safely say I found a partial solution that works. From other similar posting, it seems the early bootloader 0.23 was a pre-release demo and not for public consumption...so this USB upgrade process does not work for this version.
What worked for me using this bootloader version was a combination of the posting here http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=93&PN=1 - using their choice #3.
1. Download ROM 1[1].72 SD.rar (ROM 1.72)
2. Extract ROM 1[1].72 SD.rar with WinRAR, you will find two files; ntrw.exe and ROM.nb1
3. Put them in any folder; say c:\ROM\
4. Go to DOS command and the folder contains the files
5. Type C:\ROM>ntrw write ROM.nb1 E: (Assume your card reader drive is E as shown in the below figure. Wait until finish writing the rom.
6. Put SD card into your XDAII, go to bootloader mode (Power + Reset + Directional Pad) and follow instruction on your device screen.
However, for this bootloader it definitely wanted a RAW formatted SD card, not a card formatted by XP/2000 card readers. I also tried other devices format Treo 600, etc...but what did the trick was to do a save to SD command using the USB/Serial program ROMUPDATE.exe located somewhere on this board.
This allowed the card to work with the bootloader...
Once this was done...I was able to insert the card on the card reader (and get an error - ingnore since it was raw format)...and type step #5.
Once this was done I was able to boot the device again.
To note..most of the solutions posted here work for public release bootloaders above 1.0...but this was an early release bootloader...and this is how you get this one to work. NOT using USB.
Now the next task is ...how do I upgrade the bootloader?

for hard reset u need not to press the navigation key just press power and reset.
and if this does not help try reinstalling the rom in boot loder mode(serial 1.06).

Hi all,
Hope I may be of help to those who have GSM Error on their Wallabys. I have almost given up hope but I just searched the threads. This is basically what I did:
1. Download xda developers special rom and re-flash via sd card
2. Hard reset, press contact and calendar buttons (or a combination of both), volume button, and soft reset will bring you to the today homescreen (I cant remember exactly what buttons I pressed, I just pressed them all)
3. Re-boot phone, you will notice you still have no radio but you can now enter today homescreen (please take note the "start" menu is not there)
4. Align screen / stylus. You can do this by pressing Action Key then Calendar button.
5. Press Contact and Action Key (both) several times (I think around 20 times). You will hear clicking sound. This will bring out the "start" drop down menu. If it does not pop out, repeat again.
6. Download the correct RSU for your phone. Save into SD and copy to programs (same procedure as in wiki)
7. Run the RSU program, expect to fail at 1%. Re-boot. this time you will be able to active sync your phone again. (my wallaby did to my surprise)
8. I gave up on the RSU 4.16 (after countless tries) and I downloaded RSU 4.21 from xda-developers ftp (exe file) since I am now able to sync to my device.
9. Install RSU upgrade to your device, the phone will automatically re-boot.
10. Surprise! I was able to re-flash the RSU! (I think the problem is the RSU 4.16, try other 4.xx instead but be careful to use the correct version)
Now my Wallaby is up and running again! Thanks to xda-developers and Wiki and to Lumpi. There is no secret. I just did a lot of reading from the threads. It's all there. Good luck guys! Merry Christmas!
why ur wallaby resynched....
The reason it re-synched.... is because... when u go to the wallaby bootloader... and go into the GSM menu's (that allow u to tun off and on the gsm... and band tests... the key to it is there.... just reset those puppies at least 1nce.. then when u reset and boot... voila... it will sync,, but... I'm still stuck on that 1% error... rsu failed!! so.. wish me luck... oh.. btw.. when u get the 1% error it will not sync again until u repeat the process at the wallaby bootloader... so... any ideas anyone>> to get past the 1% error? I've read up and down ... searched left and right here... but no luck yet... I'm still trying what was posted here... so... wish me luck.... !!! oh... question what version is ur wallaby?? PW10A or B?

hello..
did you find a solution for 1% error? I have the same issue and I tried all night...and day...and nothing (
Reflash via SD
Hi morph751,
Firstly, thanks for this, I have now finally got my Wallaby back to a state where I can ActiveSync it, and actually run programs on the thing. Unfortunately, the RSUupgrade continually faults at the 1% mark both version 4.16 and version 4.21. The one step in your instructions that I did not follow, was the first "Download xda developers special rom and re-flash via sd card". The problem with doing this, is that when cold booting with the SD card in the slot the device simply hangs at the GSM Error screen. I have bootloader version 6.22, so I assumed this was due to the post 5.17 SD card locking. But the info and utility to bypass this doesn't seem to help either.
Is there something fundamental I am missing in terms of being able to boot the device into a mode that will allow me to flash it via SD?
By the way, when trying to flash the device via Program A, it fails with an error indicating that the power cable is not plugged into the device. The device is in the cradle, with USB connected and power connected to cradle.
OK, by folllowing the instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=245282, I have been able to sucessfully flash the device to XDA Developers special ROM image 1.2. But I still get Program B failing at 1%, using version 4.21. Has anyone managed to overcome this, if so how? Thanks in advance for any help.
I have just tried flashing WM6 on to a Friends QTEK 8500, it went wrong Doh!!!.
I had already last Friday put on it the version with non wroking GPRS and this went without issue. I then reflashed my own one with a GRPS working version (went without a problem) and then tried his. I can get it into the boot loader screen but nothing else. I have tried SD card flashing (3 cards) 1x 512MB Card and 2 x 2GB card all formatted as FAT32 with file on the root the phone searches for it but doesnt find it.
Please any advise.

First of all, REMEMBER, your phone is NOT bricked until it goes to BOOTLOADER mode.
Have you made SuperCID before flashing? What firmware are you trying to flash via bootloader mode?

When you say booloader mode what does that look like. At the moment if I reboot the phone I get the HTC Mobility windows by Erofich screen.
When you hold down camera and record button and then power on the device I get brifely the white scrren looking for SD card it then goes to the tri-colour screen and does nothing.
I beleive I have CID it as I did the same on this as I did on mine i.e. ran the unlock according to the sticky.
I than put on this

When you get into bootloader screen by pressing RECORD and CAMERA buttons, then you MUST flash back to the STOCK ROM first. You can't flash any custom WM6 at this point. Only AFTER you have the stock ROM flashed, you can use SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe to app unlock the phone, and copy the SoftSPL into the phone. Then run SPL.lnk.
To summarize: The built-in bootloader CANNOT flash WM6 and can ONLY flash a stock ROM. Once you go back to stock, you can then try to flash WM6 again. Anytime a flash fails, you must go back to stock first, then try again.

Hold CAMERA and RECORD button and press power button. When it goes to Bootloader tricolor mode connect your device to PC and run official Qtek 8500 RUU. Then make a reg (app) unlock:
Download regeditSTG2 which is digitally signed: http://4pda.ru/forum/attach/387522/regeditSTG2.zip
Then install it and change some registry values:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001001 = 2
-> change to 1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Policies\Policies\00001005 = 16
-> change to 40

I have two phones one did work and one did not the one that worked shows version 1.02 on the tri colour screen the one I am having problems with shows 3.06 not sure if this is relevant.
Try removing the battery for about 30-seconds (or just removing the battery cover) and then put it back on. With the phone OFF, hold RECORD and CAMERA and plug in the USB while holding those buttons. It should go to the Bootloader. Run the QTEK RUU immediately after doing that.
If you sit at bootloader very long (more than a minute or so), for some reason it times out and the RUU won't work. It could be that's what's happening.

Tried that a couple of times just to make sure I was doing it correctly it goes into the tri colour screen I pressed the reflash option on the PC 1 second later this then sits there for a minute or so and times out "ERROR [260]" the phone did come on and has a USB in the bottom left corner so I presume the connection to the PC is OK.
I have just re-done mine again using the NEO rom (very nice) to make sure I am not going mad and that I did it correctly and this all went without a hitch.
Is there anyway I can get the phone to boot of a SPL on an SD Card I think if I could do this then I could get it back to 5 and start again.
No, it will only boot off the built-in SPL in ROM.
Did you try using the OEM .nbh file, naming it STARIMG.nbh and putting it on the SD card?

Yes tried that made sure formatted FAT32 etc. I know the SD card is ok because if I take my working phone and run the SPL link with the card in my good phone it finds the file and asks me if i want to reflash it. The non working phone with SPL3.06 does not do this.
You are not alone.
The bad news - the person in the post ended up having to exchange the phone.
It could be there's a bug in 3.06 SPL? Seems to be the case because I've flashed bad ROMs many dozens of times on my Cingular 3125 StarTrek and not once did I have any trouble flashing OEM ROM back on it.
Can I write the flash at a lower level with any tools i.e. pdocwrite or seomthing like that?
I don't believe so. Those programs require an Activesync connection (copies files to the phone). You could try the MTTY method, but I don't know if that works on StarTrek. I think it's some kind of terminal access into the bootloader, but what I've said so far is the extent of my knowledge about it.

I have a similar problem on a 3125 and the phone reports V4.01. I acquired the phone in this condition, so don't know how that came to be. When I try to update via USB, it tells me I need a newer update tool (to match the 4.01, I assume). What error message are you getting when you try to update via USB?
I have been struggling to flash (again) the great pro V2 rom, but I always used my VMWare based XP windows version on my Vista laptop. Today I could use a genuine XP Laptop and I could make a connection and start the upgrade!
Sounds good? That's what I thought too, until the upgrade stopped at 70% (and I didn't touch anything), because of a connection error. I followed the text on my PC screen and I finally it started flashing again for a few seconds and then my startrek suddenly restarted, but it stops at the first splash screen! I tried to get my device back to bootloader mode (push 2 soft buttons and start), but no bootloader mode, only the 1st splash.
I solved the problem.
Thank you for this thread
I tried flashing a new ROM to my i-mate smartflip and thought I had killed it, but going back to the wm5 OEM as suggested on this thread worked and I still have my phone. Now, am I brave enough to try upgrading it to wm6.1 (or even 6.5) again... Once again, many thanks!
somebody can me give the oem rom because i am same problem too on the secreen 3.06 i cant flashing anytihing rom somebody must me help
I bricked my 8525 is it garbage or can HTC reflash it? I repeatedly tried to load the WM6 upgrade from the HTC Site,it kept erroring out at 78% with a 302 error code,I tried rebooting,different USB ports,different PCs,ect.Well it got late and I got tired and attempted to load the "Naked 7" version,kept getting not Hard SPL thing,tried to install Hard SPL,wouldn't or didn't seem to work,still It would connect with Activesync and the recovery thing would continue to load to 78%,So I Got REALLY STUPID and tried loading Faria-X32 or something like that that saw the Phone ,asked about updating the ROM,to which I said YES,it went for about 2 minutes worth of progress then Kicked off,now instead of the RED/GREEN/BLUE/WHITE screen I get the at&t logo with
M 05 R 1.54.07.00
S 04 G 32.86u 7028.23H
B 06 D 3.62
It will no longer "connect" with the Activesync on my Computer,it just stays on the Logo screen with the above in red at the bottom of the screen.
Is it FUBARed forever? Thanks In Advance,Vegaslightsss
Am I asking Questions in the wrong Place?
Sorry I am new to this,am I asking the wrong questions in the wrong place or am I at the wrong site entirely? Of all the searches I did,this was the Site most often recommended,I am not asking to be spoon fed or babied,I just need to know if there is any point in even attemting to fix this myself or if there is anyone,anywhere that has the knowledge/equipment to do this.Thanks in Advance for your Time,Vegaslightsss
You aren't in the wrong place. Fear not, read the wiki. I would help you out, but I own a Wizard, and know next to nothing about the 8525's
!st, congrats on finding us, Its the place that offers salvation when you are writhing in hell.
Now, do a search for Hard SPL on the forum. Download Ver 7.(ver 9 for developers and throws up error messages when finished flashing). Then do a search for HOW to flash Hard SPL via the SD card method. You should find easily enough on either the forum or the wiki.
Please note that this will void warranty BUT as it is just a glorified paperweight now, I dont think that really matters....
After you hard spl your hermes you should be able to reflash it with either the stock rom you were trying or one of the cooked roms that our TOP chefs cook up, I'd recommend TNT SE if its your 1st rom as I found it VERY stable but thats up to you. Download the rom...
Put your hermes into bootloader, hold down power button, OK button above flywheel and soft reset. Make sure all buttons are held down til it powers into tricolour screen. This should tell you what your IPL is (1.04 if you hard spled ver7) and your SPL (2.10 olipro).
On your pc, go to activesync's connection setting and untick "allow usb connections" then connect hermes. Double click thr RUU_Wrapper.exe file and follow the prompts.
Or you can use sd card method (search wiki)
You should also do a check to see if there are any bad blocks but I'd do this after flashing.
Hope this helps...Cheers
Reset fails to bring up Tri Color at&t with red versions frozen
Thank You VERY MUCH for responding,I went out and bought another 8525 with WM6.1 already loaded on it.I still would like to repair my other one,I have dabbled with Satellite testing for years so I am technically literate and quite experienced with flashing ROms ,ect. I have all of the files you suggested,I put the Hard SPL 7 files into onto the Mini SD card and attemted several Hundred (told you I was desperate)times,It just pops right up with the at&t light blue screen with the world logo and all of thr red letters ,I guess the red "R" is indicating the radio is at 1.54.07.00 the "G" is 32.86u.7020.23H the "D" is 3.62 the "m" at 05,the "S" at 04, and the "B" at 06.
M,S,B,and d,come up instantly followed in about 3 seconds by R and G,there seems to be no hope of getting it to take the SPL7 files from the memory card,I downloaded the XDA tools and have attempted to try and boot from SD with no luch,just that damn [email protected] logo screen,Is there anyone on the forums that works on these that I could ship it to and pay for their badly needed services.I am getting to the point that I feel like I am not getting anywhere. If anyone can handle this type of repair please either PM me or whatever. I have to give up before this makes me insane.Thanks,Vegas
Did you copy the .nbh file to the card after formatting it fat 32 and then renaming to "hermimg.nbh"?
You only need to copy a single file into your micro SD card's root folder -> RUU_SIGNED.nbh which needs to be renamed to HERMIMG.nbh
Press and hold the "OK" button at the side and the "POWER" button at the same time then poke the reset hole under the device with the stylus.
its been a while since i've done this, but i believe you need to be able to boot the OS to install hardspl, even if its through the sd card.
to unbrick you phone see this link:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
after u're done, then you can hardspl

I am able to boot, kind of with L+R soft key + reset ,it will breifly show thw tri colored screen but noy stay there,I jumps to a screen that says
"Do you want to erase all user Data and restore to Manufacturers Default?"
YES = QWERTY (R) KEY
NO = QWERTY (X) KEY
I have tried both,both say successful "Press SpaceBar to reboot" of course it boots back to the at&t screen with the little red letters frzen on screen. I have formatted the SD card FAT32 and renamed the file from SPL 7 to hermimg.nbh not sure how or what that is supposed to do,but I have done it,I do see a glimmer of Hope now that I have seen it do something else ,I am reading my butt off but could still use some guideance.

I have the WM6 .exe file but don't I need and image of the installed file a a ROM image not an .exe????Vegas
no, its not booting the OS, its stuck at the at&t logo. go through that unbrick guide that i posted.
you *might* be able to save it by flashing the at&t rom here:
http://member.america.htc.com/downl...502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe

Need ROM image to put on my SD card...
tHAT LINK SEEMS TO BE DEAD,i REGISTERED WITH THE SITE JUST FINE,BO NO FILE,whoops,sorry Caps stuck,no file to be seen,the problem is that I can't run any type of exe as the ROM booting is what I need in order for the PC to "see" the phone through USB for activesync,I need the actual "image" for on the SD card in order to get it fired up so I can Hard SPL it...Vegas
sorry, looks like it just wont work with a direct link. go here:
http://www.htc.com/us/FAQ_Detail.aspx?p_id=65&act=sd
and click the download link at the bottom.
and like i said, put your device into bootloader and run that exe file. your pc can still "see" your device while it is in bootloader mode. If you want the image, use winrar to extract the contents of that exe, and then look for the biggest file, and then extract the contents of that file. you should see a RUU_signed.nbh, that's your rom image

Instead of the L+R soft keys, try using the OK button on the left of the device, the power button on the right, then hitting the reset hole. That should put it into the tricolor screen, followed by a screen which says "HERMIMG.nbh" and prints a list of things which it's going to update, then says "Press power button to continue".
Edit: and if you do it without a SD card containing the HERMIMG.nbh file, it should stay in the tricolor screen, with the word "Serial" or "USB" displayed at the bottom, and you can plug it into your computer and flash it that way. I don't use that method, but it involves running the exe file on your computer while the unit is connected by USB cable. See mrvanx's guides for some details.
One thing, if you connect to usb with it in bootloader, FIRST, open activesync(before you connect the hermes) and go to connection settings. Untick "allow usb connections". This will stop activesync trying to sync up and possibly screwing around with the flash. Cheers...
Good read.. I use SD method too flash. As my desktops solaris OS. Good luck, just keep reading. The answer is in the WiKi

sx56 problem
I downloaded the XDA-developers-SER-v12 for my siemens sx56...
the problem is that when i downloaded it and have it activated... the phone show upgrading...will take 5 minutes to do so and do not unplug... the thing is...it has been over 5 minutes and it still shows in my screen and i couldn't get to take it off...
now the thing is as soon as it unzips it says that i have to have my phone on active sync... i cannot do so since the phone is stucked... now when i try to cancel it it says "cannot open the ROM image file" please download and try again" so that's how it goes repetitively... what is the best way that i can do with this? if it ain't going to work.. i would rather just use it as an organizer like it used to...
is there anything i can do with this?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashSD
and if you want to unlock use the exe tool rather then a very very very old rom
like
XDA-developers-SER-v12
The code will change depending on the model of the mobile phone. Every step has to be carefully followed while unlocking the phone.
SX56 problems
Hi, I recently got a brand new Siemens SX56 from ebay. It was never upgraded to firmware. I took the task of upgrading this but something happened that killed the process. Now the device is stuck at this mode even after doing a reset.
My steps were, I updated Active Sync to 3.7.1 (the latest version) The device is happily communicating with my pc.
Then started the upgrade and the screen says "upgrading will take 5 minutes, do not remove device or uplug power...during upgrade process..etc"
The program says it encountered an error during the upgrade and basically stopped the process. I knew this was bad. The instructions told me to uplug the device from the usb cable, do a normal reset, plug usb cable back in, and then retry the upgrade utility.
It won't because no active sync can't see my device because the screen is stuck on that "upgrading takes 5 minutes screen"
Is this device basically dead? Please help. This was a clear upgrade process and clearly the process got an error.
Hello gybanez,
I had the same problem and was able resolve the problem.
You have two options:
1. you can send it to me and I will do it for free.
or
2. buy these:
a. MMC card (at least 64 mb)
b. buy a Card Reader/writer that supports MMC
c. go to www.xda-developers.com and download "XDA-developers-SER-v12"
d. extract the ROM from XDA-Developers-ser-v12 (.nbf file).
e. also download XDA-TOOLS (used to copy the .nbf file extracted to
your new MMC card on the Card reader/writer.
f. now insert the MMC card into your sx56 press reset and power button
at the same time and it should take you to a screen which asks you
to press "action button" to download and once done do a cold reset.
This should do the trick and afterwards if you want to upgrade and or
customize it go to http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ great site.
PS: If anyone wants to correct/add to this please feel free.
Regards, JOHNNY.

These are possibly updated versions of your area's stock ROM, the 1.58 radio would be a version 1 ROM, where the 1.65 radio are the version 2 ROMs.
Does it have Hard SPL installed? If not, see if it will install it, then you can install any ROM.
There are other things that can be tried using MTTY, but I am no expert on that - there is a thread on it though.

Could you tell us what you did, I mean did you already tried a hard reset or something simular, and which rom you where using when the phone freeze.
Hard reset
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should be performed only if a normal reset does not solve a system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings -‑ the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on your device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile® software and other pre-installed programs will remain.
To perform a hard reset
1. Press and hold the TALK and END buttons, and at the same time, use the stylus to press the RESET button at the left side of your device.
2. Release the stylus, but continue pressing the TALK and END buttons until you see the following message on the screen:
3. Release the TALK and END buttons, and then press ENTER on your device.
Warning! Your device will be set back to factory default settings. Please ensure any additional installed programs and/or user data have been backed up before a hard reset is performed.
Important If Encrypt files placed on storage cards is or was enabled before, then backup all files from the storage card before using Clear Storage, hard reset or updating the ROM system software. Otherwise you will no longer be able to access the encrypted files on the storage card. Use ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center to transfer files between your storage card and computer. After the procedure, copy your files back to the storage card.
