I have a HP rw6828 as my second PPC.
I read the following thread and download the new version of RUU from HP's official web site.

it starts ok, but when the updating progress is nearly 90%, the hpRUU.exe jump out a Fatal Error window telling that it has to stop!
I kept waiting for about 30mins the screens no change, both my Laptop and PPC.
I pulled out the USB cable, the PPC's screen kept on as no change. I insert the USB cable and run hpRUU.exe again, it seemed like "searching" sth and finally the same Fatal Error occur.
I pulled out USB again, and poke the reset hole, it turned down and, never turn up again! no matter what I do, press the power button, or the hard-reset combination, the screen just keep purely dark.
Is this so-called a BRICK?
Just inform those who want upgrade your 6828, make sure you are ready before you brick it~~~
so,did u make him alive?

I was trying to flash my G4 wizard with faria wm6 rom and it kept stopping at 99% and telling me to unplug usb and battery then re pluggin usb and hit next so that was gonna b a never ending circle so I searched Google and found RUU_Prodigy_2210206_22102109_021911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship
flashed that and worked. (should have left it and called it a day but i wanted to try wm6 so found a new version of shelltool_bugfixed_2 tried again. Within 3 mins there was an error on the pda screen but the flash told me not to touch anything so I left it 20 mins. Did "ctrl, alt, del" and the program was not responding so I closed it. Now when I turn the phone on it hangs on the t mobile splash screen with my IPL/SPL. I did the reset with the camera button held in I get the the boot screen/3 colour screen and when I plug in usb pc makes noise saying it found it but then I try flash using t mobile rom it gives me error 274 cant connect make sure usb is in.
I tried doing searches for "error 274" but don't return any finds which I thought was wrong so to test the search button I done a search for "G4" same again =(
sorry for such a long post.
K well I finally got the t mobile basic rom back on just kept pressing buttons on the phone while it was searching for it, not very technical I know! now should I try a 3rd time to get WM6? u know the saying "3rd time lucky!"
well i did the silly thing and did a flash upgrade on my atom exec to WM6 v7
it went 100% restarted fine
but now!!!!! im stuck on the align screen it doesnt listen to my taps, if i move my fingers all over the screen it eventually pick it up but it isnt accurate enough so keeps restarting the test align session... HELP PLEASE i have meetings comming up and need this phone
i can get into boot loader mode but when i connect phone to laptop it doesnt connect active sync while in bootloader mode...
can i skip this screen align somehow
You are not suppose to upgrade the EXEC with the ROM .
Check out the WIKIPEDIA ATOM solutions page for assistance.
I think therz a way to get back to the ORIGINAL ROM , ask a SENIOR for help also search the forums for older posts , i remember someone with ths same problem as yours
really? i just ran the utility here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333165
without making any changes to it
how do i go back to original pleaseeee help someone... if i got in boot loader mode and run the same upgrade utility (as linked above) it lets me click upgrade but then quickly says connection failed and then my bootroom reads:
"please use DSUU in OS mode and sync with PC first!!!
where do i get original and how do i do it please... maybe there should be a sticky for stuff ups like this
wow no one is kind enough to help... ive tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331818&page=1
but it freezes on 6% and i took the advise read in the wiki to hard reboot then run DSUU , and it does the same thing (stuck at 6%)
well now i have the wm5 starting but its stuck again on the tap the screen? ignoring my taps...
could it be my screen is stuffed? although it worked before the flash
okay !!! progress!!!! ....'
ive finally called o2 and put their rom and it works to a certain point, the align screen detects my taps but it just keeps repeating over n over n over asking me to keep taping around the screen???
Hard Reset
I think hard reseting it once should solve the issue...........if it doesn't try reflashing it once again.....worked for me............brute force is needed sometime
no i figured its screwed my digitzer somehow so im asking for calibration data in other post
I have been going through the forums for a while and still not sure what to do...
8125 G4
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL 2.25.0001
GMS 2.25.11
OS 10.0.0.10
I turned it off last night at 68% bat. I turned it on today and it is stuck on the Win 6.1 Diamond Edition splash screen. I have soft reset it many times. The on/off button doesn't work so I have to remove the bat. to shut it off. I did some reading and some say it could be the batt. needs a jump start. I am not sure about this because when plugged into the computer it takes a charge.. light starts out yellow, and later turns green..( i think that is charged)
I don't want to do a hardrest until I hear that is what I have to do.. I have seen others with problems close to mine and a hardrest failed. I am able to do the softrest holding the camera button to get the bootloader screen and would like to reload the rom ( if I have to) but I used SoftSPL to load the Diamond rom and not sure I can reload it without runing SoftSPL again.
I tried to follow the loading steps for using SoftSPL, but the program it tells me to use WST v4.22 and it doesn't see the Wizard. so... can someone tell me if I can use the bootloader screen to reflash my wizard or do I have to do something else..
Thank you
or any other steps to fix this problem
I also need to add that actsync will not connect.. it doesn't see the device...
OK so I could not wait... I did a hard reset and it is back up and running. All extra software has to be redone, but all is well.
I have been upgrading my Hima for years, trying all the different roms here and in buzzdev.net.
But lately I've been having problems with the rom upgrade process.
In my last two updates I needed to repeat the process many times to have success.
When I put the device in bootloader mode, and put it in the craddle, it stays in Serial, instead of changing in the screen to USB most of the times. After restarting the device and putting it into bootloader mode for 3 or 4 times, it finally says USB.
But even after changing to USB, when I run the upgrade utility it hangs there many times.
I thought it might be a cable problem, but it must be a weird one, because activesync works perfect in normal mode.
I have tried to do it from another computer with same results.
Now I want to try the new Ather WM 6.1 Diamond Edition, but I have been trying for hours without success. Most of the times it stays in Serial, and when it finally changes to usb, the upgrade program hangs with the screen "Checking the information on your PocketPC. Please wait" and I wait for a long time without results.
Any help please??
could be a bad connector
Thanks for the answer!
Finally I got it updated, but only after many many tries.
Hi guys. I've been here for while and over the years i flashed my hermes with various cooked and original roms over and over again. However, today i tried to flash it with the josh Manila2D_Black_V14_WWE rom to see if i could let go my iphone 3g and get back to my good old htc. Here's the thing: USB=Plugged, ActiveSync Ok, HardSSPL, Unlock Sim, the works... When i clicked RUUWrapper.exe all the process turns out good and then, puff! My screen turns black, the Led doesnt work, cant get it reset or hard reset, pulled out the battery and back in, nothing! then i took the USB PC cable and put it on wall charger. The led shows RED, the screen is dead, nothing happens. It stood there for a while, then i tried to hard reset. Went to bootloader, "Press R", "Then Space" "ok", PUFF! nothing happens. Cant get it sync with my pc, wont boot with hard reset, screen's BLACK, now the led stays GREEN all the time when i replace the battery...Can anybody help me out?! If theres a sollution im sure i'll find it here. Thanks in advance!!!
If you have Hard SPL V3 on the hermes, try to go to bootloader, Hold power, OK button and reset with stylus. Hold in all buttons until you get to tri-colour screen.
If you can get to bootloader then use the sd method to flash a different rom.
1. Format an sd card to FAT32, copy the .nbh file onto the sd card and rename to hermimg.nbh.
2. Put sd card into hermes and reset to bootloader.
3. Follow instructions.
cheers...
Still nothing...
Thanks for the reply Ultra Well i tried the Power+Ok+reset but nothing happens, the god damn green LED just stays on forever. However i can get to boot with power+the 2 quick buttons from the windows and ok. Can i get access to the SD Card from here? Havent been updated for quite a while, any particular rom you may suggest? Looking for stability, speed and cool home screen... I really apreciated your answer man, thanks
Finally the Cure!!!
It is only fitted that i respond here the cure i´ve found once again in XDA-Dev.com for another serious mind blowing problem with a Herm200. After days and hours spent reading the forum, testing some possibilities, finally the solution. Well it appears that with a SPL 2.30, that doesn´t bootloads by itself or with a SD Card; does NOT recharge the battery, no RED Led whatsoever... the simple official ROM solves the case. I entered Boot Load Mode with side ok+power and stylus reset, appearing USB Mode when i connected it to my PC, NOT showing the connection in ActiveSync, however the USB blip did in the PC. So i knew it was connected, plus the "USB" written in the Hermes. I´ve tested with almost every ROM available in the XDA-Dev, ran to 1% then, crashed. Then i managed to dowload the Official Windows Mobile 6.0 from DOPOD WWE. Fortunatly, it passed 1% to 100%, reviving my good old HTC Hermes. Hope this information helps for anyone with a similar problem.
Cheers!
