Hello,
I tried to upgrade my imate with bluetooth (instead of cable, because it is in my job)and now the only thing i see in the screen is "Serial v1.02" I have tried to do a full reset but nothing changes. What can i do??? Thanksss
:lol: not buy serial cable!!!
there is an OFFICIAL UPGRADE ready and existing, but not yet PUBLIC,
it is one nice 40 MB RUU file which will uprgade your unit to english language:
Microsoft Pocket PC version 4.20.0 (Build 13252)
ROM version: 1.60.00WWE
ROM date: 12/03/03
Radio version: 1.06.01
Protocol version: 1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.60.06
Indirizzo http://xda-developers.com/incoming/rom160wwe/RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe
IT'S FANTASTIC AND EASY WHIT THE USB CRADDLE
What you may try to do, for a start, is to reinstall the ROM upgrade once again, USING THE USB CRADLE and nothing else. Better remove the SIM card before installing the upgrade. Also, make sure that the battery is fully charged. All through the upgrade process, do not touch the device.
Finally....
Next day When i was in my job put my imate in the cradle, ran the upgrade and it worked.....I am happpppppy ¡¡¡¡
Upgrade failed
I had the same problem as dherrero. However, I have no luck as him. My XDA II still dead can not be boot. Anyone can help? Thanks.
IT's DEAD
I have a MDA from T-Mobile for 3 weeks now. I find out about the rom update (RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe), tried it and got the message that the update failed.
On my MDA screen therse is only the message "USB v1.01".
Running the update again doesn't help.
Is there a solution or do I have to contact T-Mobile?
Hi all ,
One of my Friends had the same problem , he tried another computer and it works , then guess what was the problem ???? We found that it was ZONE ALARM !!!
So please check You'r computers guyes ,it might be another software makes the upgrade failed .
Thanks
Hi all!
We have to be aware, that the upgrade program says "NO PROGRAMS RUNNING ON THE PPC AND NO PROGRAMS RUNNING ON THE PC ITSELF"
It's a hard lesson i learned years ago while flashing a BIOS..... if possible, do it at an UPS equipped PC (or notebook btw) to reduce your chances of killing your device.
Windows XP has many more programs running than one would suspect. As a first measure, kill all the ones you can in the right side of your taskbar, shut down your Anti Virus and Firewall, and cross your fingers while upgrading.....
Should we also shut down Activesync? Or is it needed for the upgrade?
Thanx.
I am in the same boat this day. Please help !!! I tried to upgrade the imate threw the club imate ... i downloaded ok i believe ... i did not use the cradel just a mini sync usb cord ... i used this before many times to sync... but when i tried to run the official update it stopped and now it says only serial v1.02 when i put it in the cradel it says usb v1.o2 its dead... no light for batter scharge nothing???? no sync at all please help
ActiveSync is not involved in the upgrade process. The upgrade program runs out of this, with it's own connection and settings via USB.
I haven't used the mini cord, so I'm of no help about it.
Try the upgrade program again, looks like it failed to fully flash your ROM. (That's why you don't see the charging light, it's Software controlled)
Good Luck!

Try to update your imate using a cradle connected to a pc(usb). It should work
i have the exact same problem as highlighted by the others here, USB and v1.02 screen. Question is, how do you continue to flash your rom after it fails and you put back your unit into the cradle and activesync does not sync it anymore
the upgrade doesnt use activesync so it doesnt matter. Just put the imate in the cradle(in other pc, if possible) and run the upgrade
qtek rom update problem
hi guys. my qtek only says USB v 1.02. I cannot do any rom flash. what rom should i use. where can i download it from?
I just got an SX56. It came unlocked and with XDA 1.2 and ROM version 3.17.03 and worked fine with my Cingular acct., both phone and web, until I tried to upgrade to 2003. I picked the wrong download and ended up with 4.01.00 ENG ( T-Mobile) and no XDA. The phone works OK, but I can't get on the internet. I've tried to go back to both 3.17 and to download 1.2 again without success.
I sure would appreciate some advice. I would prefer WM 2003 that works with Cingular (and XDA 1.2), but if that is not possible I'd go back to what I started with.

Active sync works ok by USB, but I get a 'USB not connected' msg when I try to upgrade even though activesync shows 'connected. Very frustrating!

Thanks Stefan. I downloaded the XDA tools no problem but I continue to get an "ERROR 011:Execute remote communication program error" every time I try to download into my PPC. The USB cable is attached and Activesync is connected.

Youu have to flash your device via SD-Card as described in the wiki site....
There is no other possibility....

I recently purchased a SPV M3100 after reading many great reviews on this device.
I have just unlocked it using the HTC Hermes SIM & CID unlocker v3a using my old Windows XP laptop and it works great (I've tried using my Vista ultimate 64 computer earlier it didn't work).
I am now interested in upgrading my SPV M3100 to latest software available from Orange or the WM6 roms available on this site like Black Dymond, really keen in seeing its potential.
I have read through the Hermes upgrading forums carefully and made sure all is done properly. I have even read through the Mr Vanx step guides in upgrading.
First I decided to use the Orange update from their website.
After making sure the USB cables are connected correctly and allowing the WMDC to sync I proceeded to run the update.
I followed each step and tick the boxes. The phone goes into the tricolour mode or bootloader screen with the following on the screen:
Herm100
IPL-1.01
Herm100
SPL-1.40
On the computer, the window 'verifying your device' is on for few minutes, after this a new window appears indicating: ERROR 260 - update error
This happens again and again, day after day, I have soft reset the device, rebooted the computer, tried both the XP and vista computers, check the usb cable and connections, did everything that is said in the forums, but nothing....
I have even attempted to use the HardSPL program and followed the process to load the black dymond, but same message appears.
Must note that after soft resetting the device the phone returns to its original state, so no harm done. but no upgrade....... Damm...
Help... Any ideas ...... Please....
Many thanks
Danny

Orange SPV M3100 / Hermes 100

Update your WMDC to the latest version.
Then try again
Thanks for your prompt reply...
I thought when I originally installed the WMDC was the latest version as I have downloaded it from the Microsoft windows mobile website....
I have downloaded the appropiate Vista 64 version for my vista machine and the appropiate xp version for my xp laptop...
Did you download the latest version...are you sure??
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
Same problem -> Error 260 if I try to upgade.
Hi
I hve the same issue. Tried on Windows XP and Vista.
Also downlaoded the latest WMDC.
Could that be something with the area code?
I'm in Norway.
For XP should you not be using ActiveSync 4.5?
I re-flahed my M3100. The first attempt it failed, it then recovered itself and the second attemp was successful.
Im sure I have, just downloaded the other day, anyway I have downloaded it again just now, installed it, connected my phone and allowed the sync process to complete. I run the orange update again and still the same message..... Error 260: update error
What SPL version do you have?
To check press and hold BOTH the side ok button and the power button, then insert the stylus into the hole in the bottom of the device.
I have SPL 1.40 Olipro
So i take it you havent read or searched on this error, the orange RUU cannot recognise your device because you have anewer SPL version (HardSPL)...ffs dude had you told us that fact it would have saved you PLENTY of time. You posted you had SPL version 1.40...................you SHOULD have said you have already updated to HArdSPL (1.40.olipro)
follow my Safe WM5 Flashing Guide to get it done.
Sorry if I have wasted your time. I thought that I included the my phone details (SPL and rom etc) on my original message.
I have searched for this error, but I gather I wasn't getting anywhere...
So I thought I would ask for some help and advice....
Anyway thanks for replying with your help. I will check your link straight away.
If I still have problems, I hope it would be ok to ask in this thread.
Thankx Mr Vanx for all your help.
It is now working. I've loaded the WM6 Black IV Shadow rom.
Do you know when there will be a 3G / video dialer for this rom.
Many thanks
Hi MRVANX, i also have the same SPL and my radio is not working. I tried to open the link that you have pasted but the link is broken. Can you please share the info here or on my email address "[email protected]"
Hi all.
I tried to update to WM6 on my Dopod 818 Pro with ProphetTouchIXbeta2. It displayed and error and after hard resetting I can only get the splash screen. So I roamed the forum the whole day downloaded a couple of other WM6 packages (I could not get the WM5 files from the WM6 upgrade guide, link is dead). So I downloaded the ROM updates from the HTC websites for the 818 Pro. I can start the 818 Pro into Bootloader, but whatever ROM file I use will tell me Update Error 260 Cannot connect!!
The Bootloader tells me the following: IPL 2.15.0001 / SPL 2.15.0001 and USB connected. Active Sync will not connect.
Sorry, I am a newbie and should have waited for the official upgrade. But I had to try
Thank you in advance for any help!
Cheers,
Markus
Hi,
i had the same trouble some time ago. The false was, that I connect my NEO on an USB Hub, take a direct connection between your PC and your XDA. Also, if it's possible, try another PC. HTH
Put your Prophet in bootloadermode: press Camm button and soft reset at the same time.
In ActiveSync on your PC: DISable connectionsetting "Allow USB connection"
Conect your Prophet to a USBport directly with a cable.
Run a NVID-RUU, perhaps the official VID-RUU doesn't recognize your device anymore.
This should do it.
i can confirm this process
Thanks guys, but the main issue is:
1. I can get into Bootloader
2. BUT ActiveSync does not make a connection with my DEvice in Bootloader and the ROMs I tried cannot connect to my device then.
I tried it on 2 machines (Vista and XP)
Cheers,
Markus

Activesync is not supose to conect to phone in bootloder
just run the wm5
Thanks,
but if I run the WM5 by HTC its only goes to the Verify information screen and after that. it says Error [260]: Connection. The Update utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone.
And in the beginning of the process it displays a couple of steps, like check that your battery is at least 50% charged and other ssteps, of which one is, that I have to make sure that ActiveSyc is connected.
Cheers,
Markus
Solved
Ok, the issue was that only this file from HTC would do the update: RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship.exe
Alle the others I downloaded would not work, also not the files I got from here. One was by the way full of Viruses !
Thanks for your help guys! Will try to get to WM6 again now

which one was "full of viruses" and how you checked it ?
Sorry should have mentioned it before:
It was Prophet"s_2.20.7.34_2.20.7114_02.69.21
Virus or unwanted program 'W32/Sality.L [W32/Sality.L]'
All .exes were infected in that package.

Hey guys.
Yes, I'm new here, but not new to phones or computers by any means - trust me.
In any case, what happened was I downloaded the XDA Live version of Windows Mobile 6 for my Hermes (originally Rogers branded) and installed it.
Then, I discovered the actual forum here, and saw Schaps' version of WM6 pro and I want that badly. Regardless of which version I'm trying to upgrade to, I get the same issue.
Here it is:
When I connect the phone normally with ActiveSync and try to upgrade to Schaps' ROM (or Dutty's, or the official one, or the T-Mobile one, or the Qtek one, anything), I get a 260 error saying that my USB cable isn't properly connected. Now I've seen and tried the fixes for that error with no luck. The other error I occasionally get is one saying that my device code isn't correct or something or other. And another one is that my image file is corrupt and that I should check my update utility.
What do I do?
ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
P.S. My bootloader version is 1.11 (I think) as per the following screen during bootloader:
HERM200
IPL-1.01
(The following part is in yellow below the above part)
HERM200
IPL-1.11
I had the same problem.
I then upgraded the boot loader with hard-SPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Now it's working fine and I can load any ROM.
Cheers
Pat
I successfully upgraded to SPL-1.10, with the same result (no change).
I'm really unsure of what's going on with this...but I really need to upgrade to Schaps' TouchFLO ROM - and should be able to easily...
When you upgrade the rom, chose hard-spl (safe).
Good luck
Patric
