G4 stuck in bootloader and no connection with AS - G4

Hi,
I upgraded ROM on G4 Wizard CID-locked wizard from T-Mobile CZ 2.21 to Superrom 1.1. But after flash, wizard stuck in splashscreen with IPL/SPL.
I can go to bootloader, but when I tried to flash another ROM via RUU (T-Mobile CZ official, Superrom for CID-locked G4 or Novii Love), RUU said - Connection Error. Simply AS and RUU can't connect to PDA. PC identified Unknown device, when I plugged wizard to PC
I tried it on 2 PCs (1. AS4.2, 2. AS 4.5 beta2), nothing....
Any ideas ? Thanks very much

Are you doing it in the correct order? That sounds dumb i know...but i had a similar problem and found out it was because i wasnt doing it in the correct order.
You have to setup bootloader and then connect usb, if you do it the other way around you get some funny errors. Thats just what i found....it may not be of help to you.
Sorry if you know this already, just trying to help, im new too.

ROM
I know i wont be fixing your problem, but, you can be sure that after the comunication problem is solve, you can use the WizardLove rom.
I mess with my phone recently, and i got stuck at the bootloader, and that rom was the only one that worked.

Ok, thank you
Problem was found. When I tried to find driver for PPC automatically, PC found nothing, but when I manually chose driver from AS\Drivers, PC driver found
Now I can flash via RUU

i had the same problem was working till 5 am to solve it
folow the directions in this thread and it should be alive once again

Error Upgrading my HTC Tytn

I have tried many times to upgrade the Rom Image on my HTC Tytn (Cingular 8525) with no success. I am getting a 260 error with the program located at this link...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
I did first run the unlocking application to unlock both SIM and CID before running the upgrade.
I followed all the steps exactly and have had no success...
The following might be effecting my attempt:
I am running my pc on Vista
I am syncing with Windows Mobile Device Center
I have tried to solve this problem for about two weeks. Can anyone help me?
Mrvanx has a guide on how to prepare Vista for flashing, you can find it here.
This information still did not work. I get a 260 error even after updating the driver, which I did not do until now.
After investigating furthur I have realized what the error is:
As soon as the RUU says "Verifying Information on your PDA Phone..." the second time and forces the device to enter bootloader, the usb connection is lost between the device and the pc. Investigating furthur, the connection to my tytn is lost every time I enter bootloader, whether it is by Power+OK+SoftReset or forced by RUU. Does anyone know how to fix this bootloader connection problem?
Same problem

Use the RUU wrapper with the NBH file you want to upgrade.
I still have the same issue, even when using the RUU Wrapper and any nhb.
don't use vista
Ok, got one step furthur
I reached the point where the ROM Begins to update, which is VERY good...
The ROM update Reaches 1%, then waits for 20 minutes...
Then I get a 262 error and have to go through recovery, try again, with the same result.
i have same problem plz help thnx in advance

Have you tried removing or adding a checkmark to the USB to PC in CONNECTIONS on your device? I remember having a similar problem when I installed Radio Rom 1.38 that my USB connection was lost with the pc . I am using XP when flashing so if you have no luck then do this on a XP machine.
Forgot to ask! What ROM are you trying to flash??
@compwiz2008 and ahmerpar
I read somewhere that running windows update will update WMDC........maybe give that a shot?
Maybe you can try to upgrade your ROM from your SD card.
Nope
Let me try that...
Still did not work
I'm probably going to just take my phone to a computer repair shop and pay them to deal with it, since I'm evedently doing something wrong.

CID Unlock

Hey,
So, I've got a strange problem. I've bought my HTC TyTn a few weeks ago and I've allready used the HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3 to SIM unlock my phone. Everything went fine and I was very happy until the day of releasing WM06 for my device. I've downloaded again the HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3 and tried to remove CID to make my device superCID. But now it seems it just doesn't work properly or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Each time the RUU starts ( after softreset, because of confirming 'yes' for sspl, it starts in bootloader ) it can't connect to the device... I don't know what to do, it seems that I do something wrong, but I don't have any idea what
I thougt that maybe just don't need to change the radio, and everything I need to do is to copy the Herm_Unlock_v3, run it and select to remove CID lock. Tried that way but don't have any idea how to check if it's superCID already. Anyway I tried to upgrade to WM6 after that, and It has same problem. RUU just can't connect to my device when it's in bootloader.
Am I doing something wrong ? Somehow it just can't connect to the device now, but at the first time it was perfect. If anyone knows the answer, please report me
sry for my english
I would be happy if someone could help me
Which RUU are you using? Which SPL is on your phone. You may not need to connect in bootloader. If you are using the custom RUU and a "Hard" SPL - then try connecting with the phone up in regular mode.
Found the solution. I think that my USB port in PC is corrupted. Changed the port and everything went fine

Connection error when trying to update ROM

Ok, I've been trying to update my 8525 for hours...here is my problem. First, I tried to HardSPL-v7 but I kept getting an "Error [240] File open". I think this is preventing me from doing any ROM update. When I try to run the Cingular ROM update activesync shuts down and I get a connection error, I think it is "error [260]". I have wiped or cleaned out my 8525 so that I am back to day one. I have tried both ROM updates on 2 separate computers and I get same error messages on both computers. I have searched the Wiki's but have found nothing, so please help. As you can tell, I am a virgin to ROM updates so please go gently.
I should add, my present ver. ROM AKU 2.3 (1.34.502.7018.01H) SPL 1.06 IPL 1.01. Radio is 1.16.
have you taken a look at my Safe WM5 Upgrade Guide??
If you follow this guide EXACTLY, you should be fine.

I have, I have even tried the mtty "fix" but I had problems with that as well. I get a modem connection screen but there is nothing about a USB connection.
Bit more info would be nice, which ROM are downloading, and where from??
Also what procedure are you doing to update?? EXACT info please.

Ok, I just tried it 2 more times, Hard-SPL. It flashes to the 8525 and goes into bootloader and shows the following "HERM100 IPL-SSPL by Des HERM100 SPL-1.09.ds" at this point activesync 4.5 shuts down the 8525 is stuck in bootloader (it never reboots) and after a few minutes I get "Error [260] Upated Error". Hard SPL shuts down and the 8525 is stuck in bootloader mode. At this point I have been disconnecting the USB cable and doing a soft reset, once the phone is on, I go into bootloader and the old info shows up SPL 1.06 and IPL 1.01.
Let me have a think, firstly do you have the latest versions of the .net framework installed?
I was able to finally run HardSPLv7, I had to do it on another computer. Now, I would like to update to RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe. I assume I should use the same computer that I used to successfully run HardSPL. Do I need to rebuild the rom file with RUUWrapper.exe (CustomRUU by olipro) & Dutty's Good NBH Tool, before running the RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe update?

Yes if you carry on the guide past flashing hardspl you will get the radio updated aswell.
Can i ask, what is different on the computer you used???

Off hand, the major difference would be Intel (worked) vs. AMD (failed) but I doubt that is the problem, you would be flooded with questions due to so many computers that have AMD chips. The USB cable was the same as well. I'll have to think about that...
Definatly check your "failed" computer is up to date with .net and everything else, most likely a software problem.
I have this problem as well..
AT&T 8525 windows moble 6 trying to install the hardspl v7.
v3.5 and 3.0 .net framework.
the RUUwrapper program gets to the 'verifiying info' screen then give me an erroe 240 message. 'the update utility can not open the requested file.'
any help would be great. Looking to add the touch it interface.
thanks,
Mike
Read the post Hard SPL at the top of this forum and go to page 116 ( I believe its post #1160) and use the sd card method. You don't need to use the pc at all. I generally flasah ALL os's using the sd card method as it seems to be safer then using the usb method. No "sync errors" to deal with.
Cheers...
I have the exact same problem..
When it goes to tri-color screen, the USB connection goes off and windows will pop up the search for driver dialogue box.. then afterward another dialogue box will appear saying Error [260].
I tried restarting my pc and device (even removing the battery) but still failure
Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

I loaded it thru the sd card just as the post above suggested. It loaded the hardspl just fine. My PPC seems to run faster as well.
Thanks for the help! it is much appreciated.

One thing that i have learned from flashing my 8525 is to remove any USB device except the 8525. This has worked for me.

But my mouse is on USB. I might try on different computer and post back the results.
UPDATE
I tried using my friend's laptop and it installed without a problem. I think the issue is with the .NET framework. I installed the latest one before flashing and it worked fine. Hmmm.. Im not sure about this tho.
Hello.... Try the sd card method. You don't need the computer...
Sorry if I sound condescending, but, I seem to find a lot of people saying that they have sync problems. Solution, Take the pc out of the equation (except to load files onto sd card). It is SOOO much safer then using the pc, no "sync" problems, no chance of usb being disconnected, reset button being hit or , worst case scenario, power failure...
You have to either have little or no battery power or MANUALLY hit the reset button with the stylus to stop the flash...
And thats my 2 cents....
Refer to post #13 to find out how to use sd card method to flash hard spl...
Cheers...
sd card method???
how?

Upgrade/Downgrade problem, phone stuck on boot screen

Hi All,
Quick recap, I tried to install WM6 on a lower than 2.1 IPL/SPl so phone got stuck in boot screen, then i went to download an official WM5 rom from Tmobile, then I went into bootloader and successfully flash the official ROm. After flashing the official rom and multiple hard reset, phone is stuck on the bootscreen with the following info:
IPL 3.08
SPL 3.08.0000
GSM 02.69.21
OS 3.8.2.21
Am confused by the OS version isnt it meant to be 5.XXX because its a WM6.
Please.
Please anyone, I am pulling my hair out on this one...

Help please! Hermes (Orange SPV M3100) drops USB when entering bootloader

I need some expert help please! I have a Hermes (Orange SPV M3100) that I want to flash with a custom ROM but I am having a problem with ActiveSync losing the USB connection at the point that the device enters the bootloader screen. I am also unable to flash using the SD card method. I have flashed a Nike without any problems and I'm usually good with technical stuff so I think there must be something extra I need to do that I have missed. I hope that somebody can spare the time to help me solve the problem. Here are the details:-
I am trying to follow Mr Vanxs guide to flashing the ROM in windows Vista so that I can upgrade it from WM5 to WM6 and apply a custom ROM to load a new TouchFlo style OS. The first step in this process is to flash HardSPL using this guide but my problem with the USB connection won't let me do that. I have unlocked the device using Hermes Unlocker 3a so it is (or should be) SIM and CID unlocked and be SuperCID with HardSPL-1.40 (so maybe I can miss the Mr Vanxs HardSPL step?).
So, when I run the RUUWrapper.exe, choosing the Force option and accepting the messages I eventually get a prompt on the device. At this stage ActiveSync is connected. I click Yes on the device and it enters the bootloader screen which shows 'USB' on the tri-color screen but ActiveSync immediately drops the USB connection. The update then waits for a while then fails with Error 260. I have to do a soft reset to get the device out of the bootloader screen. When the device reboots the Activesync connection comes back to life.
I thought that I maybe don't need to HardSPL first so I tried just going straight to the ROM upgrade but I get the same problem.
Also, I tried following this link to flash using the SD card instead of USB but when I get to step 6 I don't see a confirm message - just the usual bootloader screen (it doesn't help that the screen shot doesn't appear on the link so I'm not even sure if I'm getting the correct screen). Any ideas?
I realise that an answer to this probably already exists somewhere on the forum but I have spent hours trawling through posts and I can't find it so I hope somebody has come across this before and can help me out.
Thanks guys!
Don't worry I solved it by rebooting my PC, skipping the HardSPL and flashing with an official ROM (HTC_TyTN_WWE_3.54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108). I can now apply custom ROMs.
