Anybody out there know how to fix this?
All I have is a black screen giving a USB version. Won't connect to or be recognized by ActiveSync.
it's still ok given that the usb is shown. just cradle back the unit and restart the upgrade. don't expect activesync to "recognize" your device. just hit the upgrade exe file and it should proceed. this happened to me once when i upgraded to 2005.
THANKS VERY MUCH, I'm going to try that, I'll report back my success (hope)
You Are Fantastik, Thanks! Thanks! and Thanks!
Now let me ask you, this happen to you when you were updating to Windows Mobile 5? If so I too am looking to upgrade to WM5 just thought I should get O2's final update before doing WM5. Seen WM5 (for Xda IIs)for sale on ebay for about $16 to download, with all instructions.
Do you have any suggestions or advice, I'm feeling pretty brave now.
THANKS
yes this happened to me when i decided to upgrade to wm2005. what happened was the instructions said that i should first do a reset before proceeding with the upgrade (not sure if it was a soft or hard reset). anyway, i forgot to do this and went straight away to the upgrade. after a couple of minutes the upgrade screen (on my laptop) said something like "device error"...of which the screen on my xda said "usb version-something"...with a dark background (i think this is the one you experienced). anyway, i did a couple of resets (even a hard reset) and my screen was stuck with the same info. i believe this is called bootloader mode. i remember reading the instructions that if this happened i simply cradle back the unit and hit the upgrade command on my pc. it worked!
for you, i'm not as familiar with upgrading an xda2s. but in my opinion, as long as you can get your unit to bootloader mode you are still fine. in fact i do remember reading a couple of posts that some chaps had a completely blank screen. they said that they kept on doing hard resets until the unit went back to bootloader. true enough, a buddy of mine upgraded to 2005 and his screen went blank. he did something like 10 or so hard resets and he was able to get it to bootloader mode. from there he proceeded with the upgrade and he succeeded.
hope that helps and good luck
Oh, I should have said, your suggestion worked. I put it back in the cradle and restarted the ROM upgrade and it worked perfectly. I just thought that since ActiveSync was not recognizing it, it was Broke.
Thanks, now weather to temp faith again and try to upgrade from 2003 se to WM5. Did you find WM5 to be a big improvement over 2003se?
nice to know it worked. wm2005 is fantastic in all aspects. the only con i found was that one of my apps was not working due to not being compatible. i use animated today (animation of my baby girl rocking back and forth on her rocker), when i upgraded i couldn't get it to work anymore. however; i wrote to the app developer and he said they're working on an upgrade to make it compatible with 2005. so it's not really a con...more of just waiting until the release is out for the upgraded software. so in your case, there might be some apps which may not work properly (or not work at all) due to it being incompatible. there's a thread somewhere in this forum listing the proven apps that work well with wm2005.
a LOT of people complained about the memory issue when they upgraded to 2005...myself included. however the fixes came out (ramdisc, doc tools, etc) and from there everything worked out fine. for you, when you do upgrade to wm2005 just make sure you follow every bit of tip and instructions so as to make the transition and experience worth it. i read a lot from the forum (as well as buzz's website); a lot of chaps didn't do this and they ended up downgrading to 2003se.
other than that, a lot of my favorite apps work well with wm2005. i still have this app i used 2 years ago (today plug-in) and it works with 2005.
cheers
Sounds pretty cool, watching your daughter rocking when ever you want. What is buzz's website?
buzz was the one who enabled wm2005 to be ported to the xda2. the website is:
http://buzzdev.net/
TONS of info and resources in there.
cheers
Thanks for all your help, I'll check out buzz's website.
Hi,
I have a Jasjam which is getting NoGSM errors. I believe this may be causing my hanging issues that I've been having a lot of.
I've had a look at the Wiki page on this, and a couple of things aren't very clear.
I'm currently running Bootloader SPL-1.10, and it says to go back to 1.04. Can I change to SPL-2.10Oli to do this as well (I guess this is easier).
Also, after this step, it says to Flash the patched radio to simunlock my jasjam, however it is already simunlocked.
I just wanted to clarify these things before giving this a go, so if anybody can enlighten me it would be greatly appreciated, as it is really starting to get to me.
Thanks for your help.
Paul
NoGSM Error in Jasjam - clarification of wiki
Just wanted to change the title...
Just wanted to bump this to see if anybody can help me out. I'm still having NoGSM problems, have tried the fix on the Wiki, but things aren't completely clear, as so far it hasn't made any difference.
Sorry mate, probably because no-one HAS a surefire method to fix the "No GSM" problem. Lots of people claim that something fixed it but they seem to keep popping up in the threads still trying to fix their problem. You might have to just try everything until you either give up or something noticeably improves or someone pulls the answer out of thin air.. We all live under the threat of "No GSM" and dread the day if/when it will finally arrive... Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you can shoot me til your hearts content.
Cheers...
Thanks for that, so pretty much I should keep on trying to flash different radios until I find one that sticks around for a while?
Would try to flash a stock rom 1st. What Telco are you with? Use their "Official"rom and see if that works. THEN go nus trying radio only roms. Chances are though that if you can't flash 1 radio rom your radio has been corrupted and is unrecoverable.
Good Luck

Hi, I've got a Jasjam (so therefore it's a Telstra phone). I've gone from the official rom to unofficial roms and back again. I've installed individual radio roms. Most things go onto the phone fine, and it will work perfectly for maybe half a day, and then it crashes, and when I restart I get NoGSM. I might reset it 5 times, and then the radio will come back.
I bought it on ebay, but I've managed to get hold of the details to get a duplicate invoice, so I've put the phone back onto Telstra ROM and a standard SPL, and I'm going to get them to have a look at it, as it looks as though it's a hardware problem, unless any of you smart bods here have other ideas...
Can anybody shed any extra light before I take it into the shop? Just don't want to admit defeat if I can
If you can, the best way to fix is through warranty. If they try to fix 3 times and fail they have to give you a new handset. I believe Telstra no longer have the jasjams so you might be upgraded to the Tytn II.
Cheers....
i try, realy i do. have done all with no help (not that i haven't asked) but i can only get so far. really kills me to read signatures of others bragging how they have their titan going with gps,mms,net (everything including kitchen sink) on cricket. yet i get nowhere, even when 3 ask. i know that ppcgeeks is almost a mirror of this site, and i don't mean to ruffle feathers, but ppc only seems to be a good place to SEARCH, i'm having no luck with forum.ppcgeeks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=48

The difficultly with Cricket is there is no "stock" Rom for this phone. I had the same problem with a Palm Treo, it worked great until I ported my home phone number to the phone and I lost internet. I could only find the same instructions that I have and must have punched it in a thousand times, called Cricket a couple to have my data package removed and added and nothing. When I swapped out for a Cricket Motorola K1m KRZR everything worked just fine. So something happened to the phone and I wasn't going to fix it as there was no stock rom to go to. You might try buying a cheap real Cricket phone off ebay, changing to that phone and then change back to the Titan and see if that changes something. $15 per swap though, maybe find a friend that can do it for free. Hope this helps.
I have other phones, even an other titan, same rom and everything. It has been my test phone for flashing. I didn't want to boar group with story. I ordered one from fundevices and after 6 weeks of waiting and calling, I ordered on off evilbay and it showed in two days. Ran it for a bit the way it came with 6.0 and would send pic but not recieve. Fathers day wife, kids and I went camping and my phone got soaked with soda (floated in it for while on car charger before I found it). Sunday we got home and I took phone apart and cleaned screen side best I could, but mother board and key board got most damage. It would come on, then off, and on, and off........
anyway I washed the mother board in hot water and dish soap in big bowl for about 15 minutes. Put all back together making sure everything was 100% dry. Turned it on, nothing. But it would charge battery. Monday the first one oredered (after 10 weeks) was at my door after work. I didn't activate it knowing I was going to change the rom, and just used wifi for about 5 days. Still using damaged one as a charger and backup battery. I sent both phones to to0 (mike cooper) and had him flash the to0v3 rom on one, but he couldn't get wet phone to come on. When I got phones back, it still had 1.20 bootloader and his rom. No gps, and it took me a week to get the net to work and mms never worked. Sent it to him under the impression that his rom posted on ppc, hofo and cricket phone talk saying everything worked, was what I was getting him to do. When I got it back, activated it, and made a call, no mic. It's not broken. Missing driver, missing patch? Don't know, I know it works. Make a call (not activated) and blow in mic. Get static. Do a video, and it records and plays back sound, but to do a voice command, or record a voice memo nothing. After a few days the battery was low, but not dead. I took backup off damaged phone and put in low battery and turned on (constant on and off would kill it for sure) and it came on. I mean it is the phone I use everyday, flashing, no luck, this post. Been going for about 6 weeks. Still untouched, 2.09 sprint rom with 1.32.00 radio, and it had a dcd hack since windows media player said dcd rom in back ground. How it came working on cricket. While flashing phone with no mic, I hooked up good phone and did unlocker on it without really knowing what I was doing. Of course it stuck in bootloader and I had no clue what to do. By now I have flashed, and flashed, and flashed. Even ripping apart roms posted to put together some things. E.G. dcd 1.6.0 to get stock 1.06 spl and putting it in 2.09 rom that was on phone ruu folder to get phone locked to do hard spl 2.40 Original rom had 1.20 and every time i relocker, it would get stuck in bootloader and then I would flash original rom, thus completing a circle.
How I got to where I'm at now. With 2.09 rom, use relocker, then rom I pieced up to get out of bootloader. Then run hard spl 2.40 since unlocker doesn't, and flashing 2.47 from card always gets me stuck in 2.07 bootloader. Once done hard spl, it's stuck in 1.20 bootloader, flash sprint 3.56, half way thru it stops and wants to recover (don't). remove battery and turn back on and force phone into bootloader and it is 2.40, flash vCBU and when done it gets stuck in boot screen and only thing in red letters is "no radio". Force in bootloader and flash 3.56 and not let customize. Then back to bootloader and flash over vCBU again. Then flash vboots. Then go thru and do reg hacks and fill in stuff for modem. And that is where I am. And yes, that is only way I could get everything flashed. 4 diff attempts on 2 phones, all left same path. Still have my nokia 6265 but wife uses for backup charger for her 6275 and some old dot matrix green screen cricket phones. I was hoping for an easier resilution. Since on phone was almost 4 bills, one was almost 3 bills, and sending to to0 to flashed was 70, pluse switching back and forth at cricket.

Was there a question in there?
How far did you get? where are you stuck? what part do you need help with?
Can you not flash 3.2.6 and run the cricket carrier cab to get all this working..? (I have VZW.. so I'm not sure about cricket)
Question is fairly clear. I posted link to ppcgeeks where my origanl question was, and when I said something about ruffling featers. Will I get anywhere asking this group to help me since it is a near perfect mirror of ppc geeks as for as stickies, threads, even what is in the threads word for word, bashing ppc for not having the backbone to answer my request for help and trying to get it here? If you read my post at ppc showing that my mms kinda works, my net does work my gps doesn't work, dialing *228 after going thru a list of prls. I guess it would be obvious of the whole, is there a question here?
How come my gps don't work after filling all appropriate fields in?
What the hell is up with my mms?
Why can't I get *228 to program my phone after changing prls
Why does the evdo change to 1x when in call and on net?

And, isn't the process I went thru supposed to give me evdo rev a? To0's rom didn't, even after boasting it did. I have done dcd roms, but they seem to be too blahh for me. In my post at ppc it shows my pc is junk (ibm). Figuring out my build os to come up with with my own rom is a joke, it took me 2 hours to do first post here. (really) and ended up having to do it on my titan. Only thing I would trade on the vito rom is the feedback in exchange for windows update.
Sorry, but you asked.
Wow that seems like a lot of frustration, I am sorry to hear that. Have you tried to bring the phone back to its original carrier like Verizon or Sprint and then started over with the latest Radio and DCD Rom? The reason I ask is it seems that you might need to start from a known point to "clean" out all the "custom" stuff. You also might want to contact Bunvilla as he PMed me with Cricket info and has he Mogul working on Cricket:
well i bought a qwest mogul which was configured for qwest network. It took a few day to find a way to get the SPC or MSL code as they call it which allows me to go into the settings and change it from qwest to cricket settings. Once the settings have been changed then u will be able to gain access on crickets network. There is a very important file called a PRL which u need to load onto the phone but can only do it if u have the SPC code. good news i can tell u how to get any carries SPC code for the mogul/ its a piece of cake to switch and way cheaper of a bill and u will have access to all the features internet and everything. hope this has helped " cricket rules"

I unfortunately am not on Cricket with my Titan. I am getting ready to flash a Verizon Motorola K1m KRZR over to Cricket but it seems way different process. I hope you do figure it out and some one on Cricket here can help you get past this ugly mess. Hopefully Bunvilla can help. I will PM him now and ask him to get in touch with you.

Well, first I would like to help you… but you posted a link that does not take me to a post.. it takes me to a general forum.. And it’s the Vogue Forum at that. I’m not searching another board for your question. So Excuse me for not knowing your question.
Second, While I have not read your post there.. If you posted with anywhere near the lack of information or general attitude (as if you are entitled to be helped) as you did here.. I can see why nobody helped you. (edit I see more info in your second post but you are all over the place and filled with irrelevant info it's hardly readable)

Yes, a proper post with a well phrased question, information on what rom / radio / and steps you’ve taken.. and a proper post title will almost always get a response and the help you need to get you on the right track. The post title is important because people see those and decide.. “Hey I know how to fix that” (MMS and GPS on Cricket Help) would be a good one. Your title “Will this work” will be skipped by most people. So… if you don’t follow those steps.. NO it’s not worth asking here.

It’s possible you did something wrong… Because a rom does not work for you, you cant go blaming the rom.. unless everyone or most people have the problem. (I’m not familiar with that rom) If many people use it, and it works for most.. then the problem is probably you.. Bashing the rom will get you nowhere fast.
** Edit** Didn't realize To0's Rom was installed for you for $$.. odd?

DCD is what I use… Not sure I can help you with another rom… I cant fix your PC either. Whats blahh about a DCD rom.. Can you tell me what makes another rom better. They are all about the same except the performance tweaks and stability. DCD is stable and performs well.. everything else is an app that can be installed on any rom.

This whole process is wierd....
So I think I understand.. you are at SPL 2.40? Because 2.47 would not work? You put a sprint rom on it, but it says no radio?
Are you against DCD 3.2.6? I'll cook you a rom with the features you want and put it on my FTP if your computer is too slow to do it.
Do you have an SD card thats less than 2GB and formatted with Fat 32?
If so.. I should be able to help you get working.

Why hasn't cricket mofia chirped in?
wow!!!! Its gonna be ok lil buddy. hang in there and have some patients ( i know your patients has been depleted) and i will try and help u to get answers and your phone working properly again.
I personally have so much on my plate that i dont get to "ppc geekout" as much as i used to.
1) How come my gps don't work after filling all appropriate fields in?
well the answer is that u shouldnt really have to enter anything in any field/ just make sure that the radio and the rom are both of the GPS rom release. cant have a pregps radio with a gps enabled rom, this is not good.
2)What the hell is up with my mms?
mms is a fickled thing , especially for us cricket people/ the problem is the wap settings and some wierd issue in the reg where a certain setting would basically block our phones from recieving the mms message.
Long story short is that with the updating of roms (from wm5 to wm6 to wm6.1) the mms seems to also have changed and just when we figure out what the problem is , it gets changed. and also cricket service doesnt use as sophisticated servers for handling mms as lets say "sprint" so we cricket people have to make changes to get our mms to work . BUT in a nut shell i have successfully got mms to work with the latest PPCKITCHEN rom release.
It took me 5 1/2 hours to figure out y i couldnt get PPCKITCHEN to work on my computer./ had to use a utility to remove netframe work and then download a 200mbsfile of netframe 3.5 and that did the trick.
3)Why can't I get *228 to program my phone after changing prls?
BECAUSE U DONT HAVE YOUR SPC or MSL CODE SET TO 000000!
PERIOD!!!! im not yelling just letting u know exactly y/ ive done this successfully twice to my current titan/ cricket sets its SPC code for all its phones to 000000/ so when it trys to access your phone it cant get pass the code/ i have the modem drivers and program u will need (which i dont know if we are aloud to mention it here) but i have it and will pass it on to u/
4)Why does the evdo change to 1x when in call and on net?
now naturally your phone will switch betwwen evdo and 1x /1x when you recieve or make a call send a text msg etc, and evdo when using data/
connection/ Now i also expierenced a couple months back when my phone all of a sudden would not stay in evdo mode no matter what i did/ i think it was a certain rom and radio combo which fixed it, but anyhow first things first.
PS by the way, these 2 files have gotten me unstuck from the boot loader mode a bunch of times and i would say the most valuable files to have are these two/
i will PM u ok , lets just take it slow k, your situation sounds like a bunch of software issues which is ALOT better than defective hardware issues
JPWHRE
sorry if my spelling suks im a lil tired/ I did get a PM from jambrose/ So just to let u know, that u should give him a big thanks/ not that i wouldnt of helped u if i came across your post but to be honest i dont read alot of the posts anymore/
And by the way jambrose, its good to hear from u. Im glad u r out there helping these guys, and keeping the support going.
hey JPWHRE
for some reason i cant send u an attachment in a PM so i guess ill post the files and info here ok
1)First run the "titan RELOCKER" file with your
phone connected to active
sync, it should return your
phone to the stock
bootloader/
2)Next run the "titan unlocker"
next , this will allow u to
install olipro 1.20/ after
running the unlocker and
following its instructions u
might be in bootloader mode
if i remember right
3) your phone should be in
bootloader mode now,(if it
aint, put it in boot mode) so
just run the "ROM update
utility" in the "olipro 1.20
unlocker" folder im sending u
k/
** u may still be in
bootloader mode when u r done
installing the 1.20 BL, NO
PROBLEM, just run the
DisconnectActiveSync.exe file
first in the "Unlockboot
folder" i have included, THEN
the "titan_exitbl.exe"/
THIS should cause your phone
to reboot.
4)next i believe we r ready
to load radio ( for some
reason the radios can only be
installed using olipro 1.20)
in the folder i have the
radio in, u will run the ROM
update utility and install
the radio.
5) Next u will need to update
your bootloader to 2.40, so
that u can load a custom rom.
Just run the
"Hard-240SPL-MFG.exe" file
ive included and it should
update u with no problems,
Once this has been done u can
now go and install ROM of
your choice/ *** PPCKITCHEN latest rom release allows MMS for us cricket folks**** and if u installed the ROM and cant get the MMS to work just PM me and ill give u the instructions to enable it, there is some adjustment that will need to be made first , so dont worry , we will get it working k**
6) well my friend this has
taken alot out of me/ i will
post these instructions im
giving u under your thread
that way incase i have missed
something, somebody can
inform us/
PS GOOD LUCK MY FRIEND, and
if u get stuck or have a
question, just PM me, but if
i dont get back to u right
away, be patient, k
heres a link to all the neccessary files, its to big to add as an attachement:

DID THIS HELP U???? I havent heard one way or the other from u so i am wondering if this worked for u ??
Just looking for a place to start...
I have Cricket on my PoS Cricket phone. Unlimited mobile web on my account. I also have an originally T-mobile Wizard which I've been using just as a mini-laptop and to learn to cook, flash, etc on...
I'm about to buy a Mogul which is supposedly Cricket flashed and/or a Sprint phone originally. As I understand it, either of these should be qualifiers for a fully functional Cricket Smartphone, yes? I want my voicemail, text messages, to surf the web via my cell connection as well as wifi. Bluetooth, gps, and just about anything else are icing that isn't -truly- a requisite for me. What thread should I start reading for -any- Rom that will accomplish the above. I don't mind if the rom is "too blahh". If you are opposed to singling out a specific rom that you (as a cricket customer with a running mogul) like...You could always post a few that you know work. I understand how the "best rom" politics go.
Also, if there are any other considerations I should keep in mind, please reply!
I have owned this phone for just a few months, it is like new, but it has locked up/frozen regularly. It seems to be mostly when I text, but it happens no matter what I am doing. It does not have too many programs on it, I have tried hard booting. I keep almost all programs closed on it generally. I bought it barely used so there is no warranty.
It leaves me frustrated and I have to carry another phone as this one is so undependable. I have many times had to pop the battery out several times a day just to function. Sometimes it still does not boot right and I have to start over.
I have tried a few tips on here, but the fact is I am not experienced enough to do anything advanced such as flashing. I have a good 16g card (class 6) on the way because I heard it "could" be a problem.
I am thinking of buying a new Leo, or even an Evo. Just looking for last minute suggestions before I give up on it. Any new ideas?
From your user name, I'd assume your in New York City in the US and have a T-Mobile version of the HD2. If that's the case click here to go to T-Mobile and download the latest update for your HD2, which should improve/cure your problem. There are step by step instructions on the web page, so you should be able to update the software without any problems.
If you are NOT from the US, then click here to go to HTC, select the country/region that your in, then click on "Support", "Choose your Product", then "Downloads" to get the latest update for your HD2.
I will get started on that now. You are right, I am in NYC. The phone is on T-Mobile but it is unlocked. Thanks....Will report back.
how about your SD. card. I heard the original one sucks.
I have a better one on the way. I hope it fixes the problem. Thanks.
