Have I fried my XDA 2?
I've had this thing 1 hour and I was running the latest rom upgrade from O2. While it was checking the rom in my XDA2 it came back saying "Error 120: Country ID Error". Now the thing is stuck in a serial bootloader 1.03 mode and grey screen.
I'd not made ANY changes to config of the XDA before trying to upgrade it.
Any ideas?
Don't lose hope mate! I had a very similar problem, with the same result, only my screen said "Serial v1.01" Black text on grey background, no backlight. When I placed it into the USB Cradle it changed to "USB v1.01". It would do this even after I took the battery out for 20 minutes, the moment I relaced the battery, without even pressing the power button. I believe this is correct operation for the XDA II when it's "between ROMs" so to speak, perhaps someone in authority will confirm this?
Anyway, after rebooting the XDA II and the PC, and re running the upgrade sequence about 10 times it worked, and I now have a perfectly functional XDA II. Made me sweat, and swear, for a few hours though, I can tell you.
Keep trying and good luck. Sorry I can't help more!

I have the same problem... still not working eventhough tried many many times..
It wont even go to bootloader mode.. (pressing power, navigation and reset button)
I come up with serial on top but when i plug-in to a usb cradle it turns to USB and v.1 06 at bottom..
I also tried with different roms.. (QTEK and MDAII) upgrade utility but it only comes up with a window "checking the information on your pocket pc.. .please wait" then the xdaII screen went blank (like no power) and the utility does nothing else..
can someone help? or have i lost the xda II totally?

alimx, You could be more polite replying to him, he was giving you a suggestion, why you become RUDE!!
well, If i have an answer or a solution to your problem then I prefer NOT to give it to you, jerk!!
:evil: :evil: :evil:
alimx,
when it says "Serial" and "v1.06" then changes to "USB" when you place in the cradle, IT IS in bootloader mode.
I had this same problem with a recent i-mate I bought for my boss. It won't let you downgrade or switch to any other ROM besides the 1.66 i-mate ROM.
1. Open Activsync without the unit in the cradle.
2. Go to Activsync and uncheck the box where it says "Allow USB Connection with this Computer" (seems strange I know but it works)
3. Put the i-mate in the cradle. It should say "USB" and "v1.06" at the bottom.
4. Download and run the i-mate ROM version 1.66 from clubimate website.
5. Allow it a few minutes and it should finally come up with the screen about converting blah blah to blah blah ROM.
For some reasons, the new i-mates coming out that have the 1.66 ROM will not allow a downgrade to ANY OTHER ROM. Which I think is BS.
For the guy having trouble with 1.10 Radio version. My suggestion is to re-run the 1.66 ROM (I think it's your only option at this point until a new ROM is issued from i-mate). It may fix things. My 1.10 radio version seemed better the second time I loaded the ROM (I know it shouldn't make a difference but it seemed to).[/list]
Hi
When i tried the upgrade program version 1.0 from orange 166 DK my XDAII started at least to show error codes when upgrading.
Before it only become black
My unit was á new QTEK 2020 with french system 1.66, boatloder 1.06 maybe newer units needs the latest himalya upgrade software.
I will keep trying
Dear all.
I had the very same problem couple nights ago. All I did was soft and hard reset, all of which didn't help. But just before I lost my hope, I re-cradled my XDA II, at that time my xda's screen was still black and displayed "Serial", then I chose different upgrade version and installed it from my PC and everything turned out fine.
HTH Cheers,
I am having the same trouble
I am trying all these suggestions, but with no luck so far! (my screen displays v1:01 When I try and install anything on it, my pc can't detect the device
Any more advice?
HI
I found this
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIRom.htm
I downloaded the xdaII launch rom, and it is working!! My screen tells me it is upgrading!!
Hope this helps!
Have fun

My appologise goes to nakamichi... and alexlloyd54... sorry, i didn't mean rude.
Dear friends
I was tring to upgrade my iMate Pocket PC also know as Himalaya with windows2003 SE , while upgrading I faced problems, the upgarde failed and now I am just getting no display and OS too. The only message displayed is
Serial
v1.03
nothing is working please help
bye with regrads,
your unit is still okay; even better that the usb version is showing on the screen. it's simply stuck on bootloader mode. what kind of problems did you encounter resulting in the failed upgrade?
one suggestion i can give before you downgrade is to try and proceed with the upgrade to se. put your unit back on the cradle but don't expect activesync to "recognize" the device. just put it back on the cradle and rerun the upgrade to se.
same thing happened when i upgraded but to wm2005. the screen showed error and the only thing on the screen was the usb version. i simply cradled back the unit and ran the upgrade. worked.
cheers
Hi
Thanks a lot, i tired those steps before and even now I did but its not upgarding I am gettig following error as show i the attachment. Please let me know what to do
thanks a lot
yas
oh, it appears that you have the "wrong country" id issue. i'm not entirely sure as to how to avoid this but i believe it has something to do with the correct rom version (guys, correct me if i'm wrong). where did you get the rom you used for upgrading to se? downgrading might be the only trick if there is no rom for saudi-based users...but if any chaps presently living there and were successful in upgrading their units perhaps you could share the rom version/s you used?
cheers

To overcome the Country ID Error, first you need to install this tool...
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Tools/ER2003Edit_1_4_26.zip
Open the ROM file you want to upgrade, then change the appropriate 'Operator ID' code, after this click 'Save ROM image'.
Upgrade ur device. You will no longer face the error message.
Hi,
I've had a good search and can't find any info and have been pointed in this direction for advise.
I've got a spv m3100 and wanted to upgrade to black 3.0.1. I've followed the details given by MrVanx and installed hardSpl 2.10.Olipro first. I checked that this has installed using the ok, start and reset combo. (the installation did seem to be quick thoughm took about 2 secs from the screen on the phone changing to install being complete).
Then wanted to install the latest radio version and this is where the problems started, I ran the .exe making sure the other file was located in the correct directory and that the phone was sync'ed. I got a message saying that could'nt contact the phone and then the following message
Error, unknown version! you should pick sspl
This also happened when trying to install black 3.0.1.
If anyone could help I would really appreciate it. I bought the handset from Ebay and have unlocked it and installed hardspl 2.10 and thats it.
I also want to change the flash load screen to get rid of the orange display as I will be using O2 sim.
Once again, I thnak you in advance for any help.
James
You need to choose force using sspl, you will be ok as you have hardspl 2.10 installed so you should not brick it as you have some protection, it is just that autodetect is not recognising the rom version already installed. Try the rom upgrade first. You need to refer to mrvanx guide as this explains how to change your splash screen to a custom version, post back if all was ok
EDIT:- Black 3.5 is now available!

Thanks BOZ.
I appreciate your response, So I should attempt the black ROM upgrade before the Radio using force SPLL?
I won't now be able to try this until at least next week so I'll have to wait before I can report if all works. Thanks again for your advise. Its all new to me and I'm learning from helpful people like yourself. I've been really lucky that I've found a couple of forums with very helpful members that are happy to advise and assist.
Thanks Again.

You've got it, cheers boz.
If its any help - I had the exact same problem with "unknown version" error. Before I upgraded, I did a hard reset on the M3100 - not necessary I know but I felt happier.
As I had already installed the HardSPL 2.10 Olipro - I simply chose the option:
SPL-2.02/2.10 New Bootloader (rather than 'AutoDetect')
on the RUUWrapper - Hermes ROM Upgrade opening screen and upgraded as per mrvanx instructions (as this offered good protection from bricking my phone)
Upgrade went fine and its fast and so far stable.
Incidentally, I didn't change the radio version, as by all accounts 1.38 is a better version.
I tried to do a ROM Upgrade but something went wrong and now the screen on my XDA II just shows the words Serial and v1.06. When I did a hard reset the screen still shows the same thing. When I connect the device using the cradle the word Serial changed to USB, but it didn't seem to connect to the PC. The Activesync was not activated also. When I tried to run the ROM Upgrade again, it shows ERROR 100: MODEL ID ERROR. I tried to run HimaUpgradeUT_noID.exe, it shows Error 103: ROM IMAGE FILE NOT FOUND. Can anyone please help me get my device working again? Thank you in advance.
Wrong ID
a few days ago i had the same problem with my HTC Blue Angel (also known as
qtek 9090)
temporaly youre PDA shows the bootloaderscreen. On top it shows youre kind of connection, on the bottom you can find the revision of this piece of software.
try this tool to reanimate youre pda.
http://rapidshare.com/files/36498840/MaUpgradeUt_noID.rar runterladen.
extract this file into the dir, where you have copied the original ROM-Image from youre developer, put youre PDA into cradle and check, if the status of this connection is changed in USB. Everything o.k? Right now: doubleklick on MAUpgradeUT_NoID and drink a coffee. it takes about 10 Minutes and after this youre pda runs as well. dont forget to copy youre original ROM-Image with the original Installer after finishing this procedure to avoid any errors.
Well, i hope this tutor will help you. i´m interested for.

Dead XDA II
Hi Guys, I'm new to all this because my XDA has never failed me, until now. I too tried to upgrade the ROM, realising too late that the upgrade from a UK site was not meast for the Asian zone.
Anyway, I tried downloading the following link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/36498840...adeUt_noID.rar runterladen.
When I tried to lanch the file it tells me that RUU.dll is missing.
Is there a link that works or is there a fix for this? As I said, I'm new to this therefore need step by step instruction.
Hope someone can assist, I'm lost without my XDA II.
Thank you
Ben

What IPL/SPL it displays now ? ,Does it get into Bootloaders ? if it still does than download and flash 'wizard_love_rom' hope it'll recover back.
RE:
It just boots into a white screen. If i hold the camera and power buttons together it boots into bootloader mode, and says USB in the bottom corner. (when i am conncected via usb) but the problem is that active sync doesnt recognize it in bootloader mode. I have tried flashing it in many different ways and i have had no success.
When i go home i will try wizard_love_rom.
and as for the IPL/SPL, i will also check that when i get home.
Where can i download the wizard_love_rom?
Thanks for the help !
RE:2
Hello,
Mr IPL and SPL are both 2.25.0001
My GSM: 02.25.11
My OS: 2.18.0.0
Good News
So, I flashed my phone with the "Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2.rar"
which i found the download for over a quick google search, and now i want to update to winmo6 or 6.1.
Can you send me the link for the easiest way to do it on a G4 cingular 8125 (HTC Wizard.)
I have never CID unlocked, which was probably why i got the white screen earlier. but do i need to do it know that i am on the wizard love rom?
please help,
thanks

Ok,
I know that this may be getting a little annoying for you and im sorry for that, but i need your help on this. I am currently running the wizard love rom. And I have Hard SCP'd.
I have to problems:
1. My EDGE doesn't work, i only get GPRS speed data.
2. I can't upgrade to any new rom..... i always get "ERROR [300] Get a newer update utility!"
How can I fix both of these problems?
I have searched forums and google and nothing has come up.

ok,for error (300)you can use the RUU MUNS already posted in the 'HardSPL' thread,download the RUU_MUNS application extract it to a folder and copy and paste all the files of this extracted to the folder of the Rom replacing all the RUU files in that folder or copy the nk.nbf folder in the Rom to the extracted folder of the RUU_MUNS and then run the RUU,it will start to flash and complete and hopefully fully boot up.
For edge or gprs,you'll have to get network settings of your network carrier or check out the thread from where you downloaded the rom,its uaually posted there or check out the 'Network' thread.
Aquestion to Zabardast_1 ?
294 error , invalid vender ID
what does that means & asolution to it during rom update
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the upgrade. RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the device. Make sure you use the appropriate RUU tool to upgrade.
