Hello there,
tried to get my Orange Prophet fancy and everything so I found that the ProphetTouch could be very interesting. Followed the upgrade steps (for a G4) but I'm now stuck on the logo page with my IPL etc numbers...
It's on:
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.69.21
OS 6.0.0.0
Went to Bootloader, tried to reflash, not working, tried to go back to an earlier ROM, no success either.
Anything I'm missing?
Thanks for the help.
Edit: ok, flashed to a previous WM5 rom. But still, I'd like to understand why my 'upgrade' to 'ProphetTouch' didn't work. Any idea?

Respond to Gullum's post. You may have too long of a link when download was saved and dos has problems reading. Change to something like c:/prophet and make sure the download takes at least 10-20minutes.
It sounds, that he hadn´t made a hardreset in the right way. Or he touched the screen during the upgrade process. I did the same at my first upgrade. And i was hanging in the splash screen too.
Hello guys, thanks for your replies.
Spent an extra hour late that night to come back to the basics and do it again.
And it worked this time. Dunno exactly why it didn't work properly the first time...
Cheers

Hi All,
I followed the "new" instructions for updating my Prophet to WM6, but now I'm stuck at the boot loader with this info showing:
IPL 1.00
SPL 2.13
Nothing else is displayed, except for the "USB" text at the bottom (which just indicates that it's connected via usb, right?)
I suspect that "HardSPL" step did not work correctly. But it seems that there's no way now to re-try that step, because I can no longer connected to ActiveSync.
If I just try re-flashing the new WM6 ROM, it seems to complete successfully, but I'm just returned to the boot loader again. Hard resetting does nothing.
Any ideas, advice on what to try next?
Thanks.
Ah.... If only I had searched a little bit further! I found these instructions here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_recovery
I've now completed that step, and my Prophet boots again. I'm now re-attempting the upgrade to WM6.
Phew! That did it. I've now successfully upgraded.
search & u will find.... the wiki has the answer...
congrats on upgrading btw....

Hey Guys,
I've searched the threads, but nothing written there helped.
Here's my problem. (German T-Mobile MDA Vario II with Schaps 3.57 update)
I would now like to use the official T-Mobile WM6 version that has been released a few weeks ago, but I can't downgrade to any other version or even upgrade to Schaps 4.31 version.
I have read and tried everything stated here.
While trying to flash to hardspl v7, I always get the ERROR 260.
The MDA always shuts down, red-green-blue-white display, then a hole white display with LOADING (for a few seconds) and then again red-green-blue-white display, but then it always displays a different IPL and Spl version and just stands still.
Heres the point where I press the Soft-Reset-Button and it just starts up normal. If I go back and check the IPL and SPL it always shows the version from the beginning (IPL-1.01 and SPL 2.03).
Does anybody know the problem I have here?
Downgrading to any other version doesn't work either.
i can't help you but i've been having the same error. read the forums, followed the instructions, but still can't fix it.

Hey, i recently purchased a HTC Prophet (branded SPV M600 from orange) from a friend.
Since then i managed to get a WM6.1 rom on (shadow 2 i think)
Anyway, back when i did this, i found it very hard.
My prophet is not hardspl'd and i've having trouble changing the rom.
In my effort to change it, i 'bricked' it, however recovered it using one of those WM5 roms.
So my details:
IPL 2.20.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
Currently i'm running a WM5 rom, however i have managed a WM6.1 rom before, but cannot seem to do it again, whenever i get it installed it just boots to the bootloader.
When trying to HardSPL it just gives generic cannot connect errors.
I've used Prophet Tools aswell as manual guides but to no avail.
Am i doing something wrong?
And btw i'm using WinXP
Cheers, James
Hey, turns out i wasn't following instructions properly - probably due to my tiredness!
I wasn't pressing the camera button on white screen... DOH!
Problem now solved and running 'Vista Clean'
Cheers,

My first attempt to upgrade to AP4 did not succeed unfortunately (SPL to 3.50 upgrade went OK though), my power light stayed green and the display wouldn't come on.
So I took the Athena into bootloader and re-flashed back to AP3.
All seemed fine, the "Tap the screen to set up your device" screen appeared, I set it up and let the customization program run.
Unfortunately after the automatic reset at the end of the customization program, the device returned to the "Tap the screen to set up your device" and the customization program started again...
I tried interrupting the customization by soft resetting before it started executing itself, soft resetted during customization, let customization finish again (and again), but the device seems to be in an endless loop....
Any suggestions/help?
Thanks a lot in advance!
this happen because the spl and the kernel, AKA nk.exe, do not match. not sure what to do except try the new ap3 the cmonex posted **not sure if you tried that**
try the 3.0 cmonex posted and enjoy.
solved!
Thanks irus & Pawel062 (and cmonex!), that did the trick!
Probably not a bad idea to advise anybody who needs downgrading from AP4 to AP3 to use that rom. Download it from http://htc-hackers.com/uploads/ap3newspl.zip
See cmonex' thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386604
***great Information!***
HEY ALL,
I WAS ALSO HAVING SOME ISSUES VERY SIMILAR TO THESE WHILE TRYING TO "DOWNGRADE" TO ANY ROM FROM AP 4.0. THIS IS GREAT INFO AS I BUILD MY OWN ROMS CONSTANTLY, SO I WAS A BIT WORRIED WHEN I COULDNT SWITCH AFTER TRYING AP 4.O, BUT THANKS TO CMONEX, IRUS, & PAWEL062, WE CAN DOWNGRADE A BIT EASIER!
THANKS AGAIN!

just flash it with normal RUU
I have this problem of the "looping" with the customizations. My problem is that I can't get the device to a state where it is "talking" to activesync and from what I see, I need that to push this ap3spl new file.
When you say "just flash it with normal RUU" can you tell me what that means please? (sorry, noob here...) I've spent hours on the forums, wiki etc and I'm a bit lost.
I'm "trying" to get AP4 w/WM6.1 onto the device.
Purchased unlocked (new) and used on AT&T for 6 months.
Went to update the radio to 1.57 and used the unlocker first. (took out SIM/SD first of course).
Got past step one and then got a black screen on reboot...
I got AP3 to load but now I get this fun looping.. Setup device, load customizations, reboot, and start over.
Sounds like this file in this thread is my fix to at least get AP3 working but not sure how to apply. Can I do it from the bootloader?
thanks in advance for putting up with me
Oh yeah:
My current state:
ATHE100
IPL - v2.02
ATHE100 MFG
SPL -v3.50 OliNex
Eureka!
Ok, I'm not a COMPLETE noob.. (close). I'm up and running. AP3 (new spl) loaded, then loaded AP4. Woo Hoo!
No GPS
Well, I guess I'm "Almost" back up and running.
Since step three never got kicked off, it looks like my GPS rom/radio never was rewritten back to the device.
Any help on how to get just the GPS portion back?
Endless loop after flashing AP4
I have a similar problem. My Dopod U1000 was running WM6 and I upgraded to
radio version 1.58.00 no problem. After flashing AP4 I am in a cycle where my initial boot screen has black and white lines at the top and black at the bottom
Then get the Windows Mobile 6.1 screen and after automatic customizing the
PDA resets itself. I have tried to flash the AP3newspl file but it cant communicate successfully with the synced PDA. Any help?

get into bootloader by pressing camera+reset and check your spl
you can flash a rom from here

Thanks lakeman. I reinstalled WM6 ROM from the boot loader.
My IPL v1.00 and SPL v1.20. Olipro and Radio 1.58
I have transferred enblerapi.cab to PDA and run it each time but when I flash
AP4 ROM or AP3newspl ROM I get an endless loop and my SPL stays v1.20
I cant seem to get a flash of SPL3.5 which I suspect is the problem.
Am I missing something?

Hello
after upgrading i'm stucked in spalsh screen (the one with rom version and others...). can i skip this step? the device is lost?
do you have others questions?
Cheers
no one?
Hi.. did I broke the device?

Hi!
Give us more info about your device.
IPL,SPL,installed ROM,etc
Did you try hard reset?

Here you have the answer like given many times before:
If format fails it is hopeless.
If format goes well and works take the original Aku3 ROM and flash it. The device will work again.
Stuck in splashscreen
High to all
I have a problem with my Charmer - I was flashing it, when I didn't read any instructions and I failed it. Some month ago I came back to Charmer and I repaired it with the "Rescue Kit" and it worked some time. But now even if I flash it with any ROM, my PC write "Congratulation", Charmer turns on but stuck in the splash screen and It's all... when I go to bootloader, it goes and write the IPL and SPL, but when I do Hard reser, it writes "Formad failed", but It can be flash!!! With any ROMs... Please, help me, I like this phone...

Hi!
As you can see mostly it is hopeless.Rarely rehotting DOC chip can help and I read somewhere that sometimes flashing helped,but that was a desperated try with Prophet ROM or something like that.If I was you I could try to flash it with Goldcard (just from curiousity and nothing to lose),but if ChrBeck can't help then who?

OK first:
Yes that mith with the Prophet flashing is true. But for that we need a working Aku1 ROM to get the IPL down.
Then the Prophet thing works. That is what I found out.
The heating up thing is a mith. It helped only 1 time and is not the best you can do.
And Goldcard is the biggest SH*T I ever heared.
For devices without reachable OEMSPL something like a Goldcard doesn't exist. Goldcard just flashs with SuperCID and without Signature checking. It is like using a HardSPL and won't help.
That is all I know.
Get a good working AKU1 and I'll build you the solution (if my idea is realy right).

Hi!
Thanks for the answer.
Just a few things:
I'm in searching for an AKU1 ROM.I had it on my computer years ago,but it lost when my HDD damaged.If I find it,I will upload it for you.
The heating up:in this case probably it doesn't help.When we have a device that can't be flashed properly,we try this and it helps more often than you think.Not only with PDAs,but with phones too.
Goldcard SH¤T:
I know what is Goldcard about.
The reason I mentioned it,it helped me 3-4 times when the device (not only Charmer,other devices too) stuck on bootloader or splash screen after flashing.I didn't have too much time in the workshop,so I tried this and worked.
I don't want to argue with you,I know you are an expert in this,I just tried to help with my experiencies.
BR
Scootie
P.S.:I found it on the xda-developers ftp server: RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship.rar
ftp://xda:[email protected]_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship.rar
OK nice that you found the ROM. Maybe we'll have a new test package for the fix of format failed error soon then.
And yes you are right sometimes Goldcard helps if you have forgotten to flash HardSPL or it is damaged then it may help but you need to have acces to OEMSPL and we don't have it.
So hope I can do something soon.
Hi!
I have a question:
I have a Charmer with IPL,SPL 3.08.Unfortunately it is CID locked,so I can flash it with official v3 ROMs only.Is there any solution to downgrade it?Or with JTAG only?
Thanks in advance!
BR
Scootie
The NoID RUU will be able to downgrade it.
Hi!
I tried that,but:
1.flashing is successful,but nothing has changed,I get the old OS after upgrade
2.I tried the v1 ROM I found.The IPL has been changed to 1.12,but the SPL remained 3.08.The OS has been changed in this case,so it worked flawlessly.
The CID unlocking methods didn't work (obvious,SPL was 3.08).
After that I tried to upgrade it,but it was a torture.I got errors and errors,but after an hour finally I could upgrade it successfully.
So,if you have an idea,I have a device to test it.
BR

The IPL is down means it worked. After that you can flash a Prophet ROM.
What ROM of Prophet?
High, I was today flashing my Charmer with all original ROM I mean and the flashing process behaves OK, after flashing, it writes "Congratulation" and all the things like OS, Radio, IPL... are change to the definite ROM. But it's all. It will stuck in the splash screen... I have read in this thread something about Prophet ROM. What is it?
The prohpet ROM is an official Prophet AKU 2 flashable after downgrade.
System is as follows:
Fist flash the Charmer AKU1
Then flash a Prophet AKU2
Then flash Charmer Aku3.
You need to do all these steps with the NOID RUU.
That should fix the HardReset failing.
I'm working to get a tool running that does the whole thing automatically.
THX
Oh ****, Thanx 4 quickly answer...And I'm waiting :-D
Ok, so now I'm having
IPL 1.12
SPL 1.12.0000
GSM 01.12.20
OS 1.12.2.23
And I'm waiting 4 your instructions...
How have you gotten the SPL down?
Normally, with flashing... It can be flashed with every ROM...
OK. Cause normally SPL stays up. I never saw a full downgrade.
