I've done all search BUT still can not solve out my problem.
I tried to upgrade my current ROM (1.03) to 1.60 BUT when upgrade in process; suddenly it said cannot find the device(XDAII).
At that time I took out the machine from cradle and did soft reset. And put it back to cradle to continue upgrade. And the error message still said it still can not find the device.
When I tried to enter into Bootloader mode and USE ROM on SD to restore my original ROM, BUT I tried the method mentioned in some post;
still cannot go to BOOTLOADER mode. On the screen it always said " Serial on the top.
Could anyone help me please?
I have the same problem..
i even tried with Qtek Rom, MDA rom... still not working.
When I turn on the xda II, it only displaying serial on top and v.1 06 at bottom.
tried to run the xdaII upgrade rom with the error :
ERROR 100 : MODEL ID ERROR 1-N-PH-PH-PH
If I try with QTEK and MDA Rom it just does nothing, or it hangs for a long time..
I have tried many times and still not working..
please anyone..
I have the same problem, people, pls help

XDAII stuck in bootloader
mine too , stuck in bootloader with written :
SERIAL V1.06
nothing else ,
what can we do pals ?
no one try to help ????
please ?????
thanks
steve
if you have something written on the screen; such as SERIAL V1.06 then in my opinion you're still okay. do a couple of hard resets, put the unit back on the cradle and double click the upgrade file again. a lot of chaps ran into this same problem but eventually got it going again.
cheers
Thanks Robson..
I did that last nite , but still facing same probs .....
by the way , how to drain my batt ? just take out from the unit for 1 hour ?
and it will automatically drainned ? pls tell me ... thanks before...
Hope this is help...
I have the same problem b4, its frustating to see my XDA become an "expensive brick". After trying everything finally worked. What i did, after u turn on your computer plug in the cradle and also put the XDA into the cradle. Usually the computer didn't recognize it as Pocket PC, so u need to insert the companion CD to ur CDROM. After the computer install the driver, go to folder where ur upgrade file at. Click on HimaUpgradeUt.exe and follow the instruction until finish. DON'T FORGET not to disconnect the power or even take out the XDA headset from the cradle until finish. Good luck guys
Hey guys and gals,
In desperate need of help. Tried to upgrade my himalaya with the Asia O2 XDA II WM 2003 SE Upgrade.
Upgrade was unsuccesful; upon turning on the XDA there are only two things on the screen; near the top, it says 'Serial", and near the bottom, "v 1.06".
The xda will not respond to hard resets nor soft resets. What can I do to recover from this disaster? When cradled, it will not connect via usb to activesync.
If this is not user servicable, does anyone know a good place in Melbourne, Australia to fix the himalaya?
Any help is appreciated!
When it's docked in the cradle, does SERIAL change to USB?
Try this:
Take out the memory card (if you have one) and the battery. Not sure why the memory card, but mine had problems with it in when I tried to upgrade.
Wait 30 mins or so for the battery backup to flatten/wipe everything (You loose everything on a ROM upgrade anyway)
then plug the battery back in and recradle it and simply try starting the flash again.
I've had similar problems, but this has always worked here and we have different devices, but I feel confident that the same solution may work.
had the same problem... my solution was docking it in the cradle (it does not show connected) and reinstall the ROM
Failed upgrade of XDAII
Hello I was in the process of updating my XDA rom and after 50% was copied to the device it dropped out.
Now when I power on the XDA it hangs on the O2 screen and my rom flash program cannot talk to it.
I have tried taking the battery out and leaving it for an hour but this has no effect.
Any ideas?
Installing rom from the SD card on boot
Is it possible to do this and if so how would I go about it?
If I cant get an OS on it its going to have to go away for repair for 3 weeks.
Also have you done a few upgrades on your XDA2 and on the same PC?
I had the same issue with my XDA2 as I was upgrading to 2003SE (before getting a 2i) and I could not get any further than the USB 1.01 screen.
I installed Activesync on a laptop, put the USB in and put my 2i in to complete the installation. Then, I put the 2 in and tried rerunning the upgrade...worked first time! I'd spent 6 hours on my PC trying to get it working.
Worth a try, certainly!
Cheers

screen shows USB at the top and v1.06 at the bottom. HELP !!
Hello everyone. I am new to this forum thing. I bought a 02 XDA 2 on Ebay last week. I tried to upgrade ROM to English from Chinese and now my screen is dead and no link to Microsoft ActivieSync.
Is my unit dead ??
Please help !!

I tried taking battery out for 1/2 hour and then the hard reset. Still nothing
Help !!!!
My wife is going to kill me because I just bought this XDA 2 and now it is dead ! (like me soon !)
disastrous xda upgrade
try consulting dr. stein or toenailed or xda jojo and zeroxtreme. these are the tech guys in southeast asia. they're very good! :lol:
Have you tried rebooting into Bootloader mode (hold down D pad in centre position, then power button and soft reset - all at the same time), then trying to rerun the upgrade?

When you started the upgrade did all seem to go as planned? Did you have the power cable plugged in whilst upgrading? Did you notice any strange messages when it started to upgrade, and how far roughly did it get before you started having problems?
Also, what was the software version before you upgraded? Any ideas?
Cheers
Anthony
Hi Anthony: Everything seem to be going ok and then..
the screen went blank. I did have the AC plugged in during the attempted ROM conversion from Chinese to English and I tried rebooting into bootloader mode and nothing.
Do you think my 02 XDA2 can be fixed ?
Thanks
downgrade XDAII failure
Pals ,
I also facing the same problems , now my XDA II is blanked and only
Serial and V1.06 written ,
can anyone in this forum help ? please eeee ?
thanks
if the screen shows you something like serial1.something you're still okay. do a couple of hard resets; then put the unit back on the cradle. as expected activesync will not recognize the device BUT double click the upgrade file again.
this happened to me when i went to wm2003se; forgot to do a soft reset and proceeded with the upgrade. what i did was uncradled the unit, did a hard reset (screen still showed serial1.06), cradled her back (nothing happens here) then doubled clicked on the upgrade file. it proceeded accordingly until the entire process was completed.
dont' fret, as long as something's still showing on your screen you're still a-ok.
Thanks Robs..
I will try...
Yeah, after hard-resetting the unit, it seems that it did not reset because the serial/usb letters & v1.07 at the bottom of the screen is still there. But if you drain the battery, then put it back in the cradle & restart the ROM upgrade, it will work. At least it did for me.
As I've also said but seems to have been ignored, try running the upgrade on a different PC...you may be surprised!
Cheers
Ant
thanks Anton ...
I tried so many times in my pc until the sync wont work anymore , so i tried to do at my laptop ... still same .... should i change to another pc again ? pls advice , thanks man.

Hi, did you manage to downgrade to WM2003? Was your bootloader version 1.06? I had problem in downgrading from WM2003SE. Hope to hear from you. thanks.
I had a problem with the power button not working and I was adviced to reflash the original ROM (I never did a ROM upgrade) so I picked the original and latest Cingular ROM. Flashing strated and then hung for a while @ 80% progress, few minutes after continued up to 95% progress and at that point I got ERROR 326 message (INVALID COMMAND) stating that the NBF file couldn´t be used for this phone. I dissconnected the phone and did a soft reset and what I got was the BOOTLOAD SCREEN and since then I can not make the phone exit from it. Later I tried flashing RUU_RIsidoro_2.26.10.2_WWE+CF2SP1_G4, this time it went all the way to 100% progress and the congratulations screen, I made a soft reset (the only way I know to exit the bootload mode) and I got momentarly the HTC innovation screen and right away dissapeared to enter in bootload screen again.
Then I reflash ROM with RUU_Qtek_9100_AKU2_21878_024711_ESN_G4, this time it went all the way up to 100% and success screen appeared, the phone rebooted and is up and running although with inoperant power button.
Since you've successfully reflashed your phone and the power button isn't still working have you considered a hardware fault?
Look for some info/pics on how to disassemble your wizard to verify if the button is well soldered to the board

Luiggi, pls tell me how to flash the phone while in the bootloader screen?!?
There's no secret to flash while in bootloader screen. Use the RUU file. It might take a little while longer to detect the phone but goes all the way to the end
Yes, it has to be a hardware issue

I´ll try the disassembly and perhaps is not a big deal to fix it, I got a copy of the service manual posted in some of the forums, and I´ll give it a try.
Thanks for the advice!
You just do it!

Try first a soft reset while in the BL screen, if doesn´t react then do what I did:
I just plugged the USB cable and run the RUU!! As simple as that and as risky as the ROM you select not being the right one.
My dopod is on ipl/spl 2.20
while trying to update to the latest PV 4.0.0.0.6 Touch, i encountered an error..
Fine, reset the device, went to bootloader, started the PV_Temp upgrade file for my G3 dopod.
halfway, the update fails and says the NBF file cannot be used.
i've tried every other NVID rom and it is the same..
so now i'm stuck in the bootloader screeen and i can't do anything
Please try the search button in this forum!!! And don't worry it's not bricked;-)

check your .NET Framework and see if you have the 2.0 version installed. Reboot your pc and start again. We always experience these hiccoughs.
i've tried the search..
seriously saying, its quite hard to find what i want..
i seem to be able to flash the PV_TEMP ROM, it says on my computer its successful but my PDA just goes back to bootloader.
anyway, i'm installing .Net framework 2.0... will see how that goes..
still doesn't work..
RUU says its congratulations...
PDA goes back to bootloader
i cna flash jester's rom, i can flash PV_temps rom..
but all i get is the bootloader screen after that..
can't flash the NVID thats from the upgrade guide... it just says wrong NBF file..
wonder how much will it cost for me to send it to service center to replace the whole flash chip
new problem, now i can't do anything at all cause i think my batt is dead..
how can i recharge it ?

so you know now what is the problem!
recharge it by connecting to a PC with USB and wait wait wait and hope for the best. Try recharging it by what ever means you can do. If you said, you are successful in getting PVtemp, then, try installing battery_status.cab (find it search it by google or whatever) and watch the battery_status line on the front page and wait for a + sign before the 100mA at the right bottom line to appear.
Wait till it is full, then redo step 2 again. I'm sure you can get over without getting the machine to the manufacturer for repair.
no no
the first problem still stands
i'm still stuck at bootloader..
but now i can't flash anything cause my batt is dead..
so i've got 2 problems now
hello all,
sayjeng, I got the same problem last week.
I couldn't use any RUU rom because of the corrupted nbf file.
The PV_TEMP rom worked but I was stuck on boot loader screen too...
I tried many times and with some random hard resets... Eventually, the fourth time , WM5 started...
My advice are :
- charge your battery by any means like SeaPea said
- reboot your desktop computer
- remove your (fully charged) battery from your phone for some seconds and put it back...
Really, I may have been lucky that time...
I just wanted to post here to say that I sympathize...
Good luck!
will give it a try tomorrow..
its past 1am now and i need to be up early tomorrow..
if it doesn't, really have to make a trip to service center..
wonder what should i tell them then..
oh, forgot to mention
i can't hard reset..
i can get to the part where it says 'Press Send to restore factory default, Other keys to quit'
when i press Send, it says Format FAT Partition and followed by Format is Failed
then i get a flash for 1 sec of the vendor boot screen which is all green, and its back to bootloader

Jow ... flash your rom from dopod!
If your Radio Rom is crashed ... it stuck at Bootscreen too! After that it must run! it fix partition errors too.
ROm from dopod is 2.15..
my prophet is now on 2.20...
i can't flash it... i haven't been able to find a vendor rom wiht 2.20..
does anyone have any ? Qtek maybe ?
something to get my prophet running...
cause i did try in my attempt to get my prophet back by flashing the Radio ROM.. and it fails.. maybe thats why i can't boot my prophet
tried almost every rom..
used almost every RUU
anyone got any RUU that might help ?
or any suggestions ? thinking of throwing the towel and just pass it to dopod for them to handle....
worst case, change ROM chip
finally
I got this to work using the guide - BUT:
Windows XP SP2 English was the key for me.
I used VMWare to do step 1 of flashing (NVID)
then step 2 of flashing I did on a separate PC.
Worked after so many different attempts
i am running on XP sp2 english.. not using vista..
problem is, i can't even hard reset my phone.. it just says Format is Failed.
but my phone seems fine and still responds to my plugging the USB in and reseting....
Hi sayjeng
The same problem with my imate jamin too..
Whatever you said in you posts is an exact recall of my case.
Now it makes two of us
Waiting to see if someone can come up with a solution.
IPL/SPL at 2.20
Frequent automatic disconnection from activesync.
No means to charge the battery which i think is almost dead.
Tried the Dopod rom,for no avail.
The list goes on and on just like yours.

Did you try a long press of the reset-button?
You could try to put the original Stock Image from HTC onto the root-folder of your SD-Card, rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and Push Vol up + Vol down during start and follow the on-screen instructions if it works.
Otherwise use Search-Function in the forum.
ı have jtag HTC for samsung and HTC devices if u want send for repair to me..

I use ORT
Did you check to make sure your radio version was correct before flashing? This is probably the number one reason for bricking.
Check this thread it may help you if you did the flash properly:

i got same problem now...
no screen, no boot, vol down+ power oso same
no screen just a long vibration
anybody help?
I am using the correct radio so don't tell me I am using a wrong radio or something, I have been flashing for 4 months so I know EXACTLY how to flash.
now i can neither get into tri-color or hard reset so don't tell me to flash or smth like that, just tell me how to recover properly
Don't tell us to use search or something because seems like only 2 of us is encountering this problem in the internet
I'm exactly the same problem as TS coz it juz auto go vibrate when plug in battery
This problem actually started when I flash ROM halfway, it stucked and failed...
the device is already HSPL-ed!!!!
but why the F it cannot get into tri-color bootscreen now?
Also, I have to state that my device already got several problems before, my device was very hard to bootup as it will always stuck at HTC screen w/o red version number at bottom left corner, must keep on removing and reinstall battery and reboot until it can boot, not an issue with rom/radio/sim/sd as I tried flash proper rom and radio and remove sd and SIM.
my device also seems like got problem at the gps chip, because when using it for a few minutes, it will lost signal and never reconnects unless i soft reset, after use gps the device will also use battery VERY FAST(-100mA in standby, from -4mA).
now i cannot flash to stock completely, how do I get warranty it?
at the long vibrate, when i plug in to my pc, it will keep on got usb connected and disconnected sound
and dont know what device is connected as not shown in found new hardware and device manager
I also have been searching all possible keywords about what me and TS encountered but all linked to completely UNRELATED results(like search for long vibrations only link to people asking how to make vibration long and 1st result is this thread)

Silly question, but are you holding (and keep on holding) the Volume-Down button while you press the power button?
of course YES

Leo from T-Mobile. Hi! I've got same problem. After flashing new (next) rom phone definetely died. Phohe is currently simfree and with HSPL. Only one reaction is short vibration after press power button. I searched everywhere. My phone has no bootloader but system see him as Qualcom CDMA Technologies MSM. Thats all, any ideas? Please and thanks for advice.

Yes, you flashed a non tmous stock rom that included a ..51.. radio and it destroyed your phone.
What rom? exact filename please.
thank you so much.
I bricked a Leo with the .51 radio. I think I read that is a European or otherwise foreign radio. Since your ROM has Euro in the name.......

it comes with a version x.xx.51.x radio, and they do Not work on tmous (t mobile us) phones. They kill them
Your phone is dead, sorry. No known fix.
warranty or repair (or JTAG if you are brave and have the money)
a friend of mine bricked his phone. he then tried to microwave it, but that didn't work after that he took a power wire from an old computer, cut it and connected it directly to the phone's parts where the battery would go...this completely f-ed his phone up (he also used a lighter to fake a powersurge of the battery). Then he called htc and a few weeks later he got a new hd2!
GOOD LUCK
lol, he doesnt need to do any of that, its allready as dead as it can be. Loads of epople have had them replaced under warranty with this kind of brick. It wont start, so htc/tmo cant see that its been hacked.
Hi! I understand and realy sad. Somebody know where could I fix it in UK? And how much for this pleasure. Thanks.
i would contact htc, see what they have to say. (dont say you flashed it, it just stopped working")
