I upgraded my I-Mate Jamin yesterday to Profit Shadow 1.0 after following the upgrade guides, doing a Hard SPL, etc. All worked very well. Then I noticed that the volume wasn't as high as I liked, so this morning I flashed it again to Crystal 5.0 (not 5.1) and the volume was no better. Then I looked around and found an older version (dumb me I didn't realize it was a WM5 version) by LVSW (RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID ). This ROM had an extended ROM apparently. All installed OK, then I realized it was a WM5 program (volume still lower than I was looking for), so I decided to flash back to Profit Shadow 1.0 (no errors during the flash, but at the end when I got the HTC screen it went into Bootloader!). That's brings me to my PROBLEM! NO MATTER WHAT I TRY TO FLASH BACK TO, I JUST END UP IN THE BOOT MODE. I can flash LVSW ROM and it works, but NOT for any other ROM!! I have tried everything, read the forums for 6 or 7 hours and I tried everything suggested, but I'm unable to find a solution so I can Flash Back To Profit Shadow 1.0 OR Crystal 5.0. This seems like such a NOOB problem, that's why I searched for hours for a solution (hate to ask for help until I try to help myself first[/I])! I've flashed other HTC phones without problems… just never seen a ROM ( LVSW's RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID ) that just refuses to be flashed over!!!
You guys are always great and helpful. If someone could help me out of this mess, I would really appreciate it!!!
Try..
-If you installed ShadoW etc. rom, your SPL is 2.G4.4PDA..
-If you back to WM5, your SPL is 2.20.0001..
-If you want to install again ShadoW, first install HardSPL for increase your SPL to 2.G4.4PDA again, after you can install ShadoW
I did all that you suggested before I made a post for help... even tried it again, all except using the G4 method HardSPL (as my Jamin is a G3 - that's what I did the HardSPL for). Nothing I've read so far works... yes I've been all over the upgrade guides, etc. My hair is already gray, but it's going white fast!
Here's the information off the bootloader screen:
SPL 2.20.0000
IPL 1.0
GSM 02.47.21
OS 2.20.7.34
The ( LVSW's RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID ) just refuses to be flashed over!!! I'm not kidding! Try to flash ANY other ROM and it reverts to the boot loader screen, BUT I can flash LVSW's ROM above without errors!
There are a LOT of brilliant people out there... Does ANYBODY have a FIX for this? I'm tired, blurry eyed, pissed off, frustrated and feeling awfully stupid at the moment! HELP!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!
How about this?

THANK YOU SO MUCH dioxda2!!!!!!!!!! I've got my Jamin back on WM6!!! You don't know how much I appreciate it!!! There should be a STICKY on the link you gave me!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547
I had tried the TRADITIONAL Method last night, but it didn't work for me, but this DID work!!! IT SHOULD BE A STICKY STICKY STICKY!!!
you've better.... ( FOR NEW METHOD)
1. After flashing hardSPL for g3 ( step 1) all went ok.
then BEFORE flashing/upgrading your Prophet to WM6,
please copy the 3 files from the jumpspl.zip to the root directory of
your G3 Prophet ( JUST NEXT TO THE " \WINDOWS" FOLDER,
(attachached, pease unzip and copy then paste)
2. UNPLUG YOUR DEVICE from PC,
3. Execute the SPL shortcut IN THE DEVICE, then you see a all bright or white screen,
Then plug back the USB port ( connect to computer) the device, THEN use the Rom Upgrade Utility (RUU) to the rom you like ( all activities can only be seen in the PC screen, nothing will be shown on the prophet....
4. Finally, after 100% ( at 85% may take to wait a bit longer, just be
patient, as it may look like hang for about 2 minutes) just wait, all will went
ok AND OF COURSE, after it auto-restart, ALL will be OKOKOK !!!
( better hard-reset for once more )
You're FANTASTIC and I appreciate YOUR HELP!!! See, you can teach old dogs new tricks!! LOL!!! This is such a GREAT FORUM!! Thanks to everyone that took a look at my posting (or rather my dilemma) and considered a solution! Again MANY THANKS!!!!!!!!!
hey there been a member for sometime and have tried to search for a solution to my problem and am abit confused.
and sorry if its such a newb question (dont burn me for it)
i have an o2 atom exec (using RC3 rom with touchflo) and yesterday i /soft reseted/ the phone because it was acting funny, after the reset it would be stuck at the startup screen and would not load past that the whole day, so i waited and re-tried in the evening.. the same thing occured... i was at the time able to load into bootloader (MN2) but then could do nothing else.. so i searched throughout the forums and found a post by 'chartreux' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1684559&highlight=EBOOT.NB0 but had not read the entire post and proceeded to load (mn1) onto my phone via mini sd card and it worked, my phone was working again, it performed a hard reset and restored it to factory settings (ie: calendar, msgs, contacts, software all gone) and phone is working normally again... since it has done this i wanted to update to 'wm6.1 atom exec rom' just to be up-to-date and have synced it via activesync and have run "DSUU" but my phone just restarts and loads the current rom i have installed! and just repeats everytime i have tried (have tried atleast 50 times)
so my main question.. is my bootloader dead? i know my phones not bricked since its still working perfectly im just not able to upgrade my ROM but can still do everything else (such as browse through files, run programs, make calls)
and last of all.. can anybody please help?! as i am at the point running the phone over with my car!
and once again am sorry for the stupid question.. =/ and thanks for hearing me out!

what version of your bootloader now? MN2 or MN1? if still MN1 please read again the thread to update your bootloader to MN2 (since your device is ATOM EXEC).
and after done, please check when you run DSUU, see on the left bottom whether have a drop down box or not? if yes then choose "ALL"
hope this can help to solve your problem.
hey! thanks for the reply mate!
but im not sure i cant check the version of my bootloader...
wont let me get into it by pressing camera+SR or camera+off button..
just boots straight into the operating system.
and, as for the DSUU it just restarts the phone after i choose all, and goes through to the today screen on the phone, and as for the DSUU update its stays at the screen which shows "The current software is now being updated from your device."
followed by an error appearing after a few minutes showing " No download target was found!!" even though my atomexec is synced
which is then followed by the "connection error" screen.
please help.. this is seriously pissing me off...

try to downgrade again your bootloader to MN1 (please do it step by step). as long you can secure your bootloader, hopefully you can resolved your problem.
remember to upgrade again to MN2 once you able to downgrade to MN1 before try flashing to wm6.1.
good luck.
still cant access bootloader.. even when trying DSUU it just boots straight into the operating system, when trying to update and also i tried the MN1 bootloader again and tried to get into it... still nothing.. it just resets, i tried it with my 4GB mini sd, 2gb msd, and a 64mb mini sd.. could not get into it... sigh...
Ok try a deep breath and read all the posts on dead boatloaders and other upgrading problem posts through and through. Then try to change ur USB cable and what system are u using i.e XP or Vista????
thankyou kindly, for the suggestions i have been reading through alot of posts and tried alot but.. nothing so far.. i guess its not too bad since its stuck on windows mobile 6 with abusalzas rom..
im just annoyed i cannot upgrade to the latest 'rom' and since my phone 'had' to perform a hard reset why not update so yeh.. and i am using windows xp for my computers os.
Did u change the USB cable mate, once I had to do it and the interesting thing is that the same USB cable was working perfectly for other things but causing problems when connecting to my Atom Exec.
yeh tried it with my old v3 cable didnt work has the same outcomes.. sigh.. i might try that dead bootloader hardware and software recovery from this post by Alex_Beda & 1stMASTER
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336278
what you think?
although my phone doesn't resemble there symptoms list.. as it still works and everything just cant get into the damn bootloader.. :/ when done manually and when trying to upgrade..

Hi all,
I've been using Erofich's WM6.1 Standard rom for some time now and decided to try WM6.1 Pro having used it briefly in the past. Anyway, long story short - I flashed following the usual procedure using img-93233-RUU_STAR100_WM61PRO_V2.exe and the process failed around 40%
No big deal I think, re-flash and go again, however, the device now boots to the tricolor boot loader screen and I can't progress any further.
I've tried flashing from, WM6.1 Standard Erofich & a stock rom I have lying about (RUU_STAR100_3.6.251.0_02.67.30_QtekEUR_Ship.exe) but both timeout with the error 260, device couldn't be found.
I've also tried flashing from my FAT32 formatted SD card using the stock rom named as STARIMG.nbh and the WM6.1 Standard Erofich out of desperation.
Is this thing goosed?

Thanks for looking at this thread Erofich, I downloaded several different versions of mtty but all those with a USB option in the menu simply state "USB port can not open"
I heard mention that v1.46 works a little better but can't find it anywhere.
I've rebooted the PC & phone, disabled ActiveSync USB connections etc.
I see the USB display in the boot loader toggle on/off when I connect/disconnect from my XP box, but no sign of anything in Device manager
Not looking so hot I think?
there is a problem like yours, and it has been solved

OK, I think this is my **** up, I pulled down the iMate shipped WWE rom and dropped that on the SD card and it find's it first time. This could mean one of 2 things I think
1: I'm an idiot for using the QTEK stock rom not the IMATE rom on my iMate device
2: Placing the battery cover held the SD card in tighter??!
Upshot is, I'm running again - do I try the Pro or stick with Standard?! I'll let you know how it pans out
Thanks for your help
I've since re-flashed to WM6.1 Pro V2 and everything went fine. I'm not sure what happened to the first attempt & can only assume I cocked up attempting to flash from SD card first couple of times round.
Loving the work on Pro by the way Erofich
Hi there,
Have been using since a while the Energy Rom's.
Always had HSPL2 in use with a Energy Rom and
the most stable Radio.
Well since a week of 2 I can't flash anymore. I still
have HSPL2, used TASK29 to clean everything up.
Now I can't flash a new Energy Rom, it keeps hanging
on 100%. I can do the TASK29, but after using TASK29,
and trying to flash a new rom it keeps hanging. It gives
me an Error-message called 262; but I checked everything
(other pc, cable, other USB port everything).
Has anyone a idea what to do? I haven't been able to
use my phone for 2 weeks now!
(last versions I used: RadioRUU_Leo_Radio_15.40.50.07U_2.12.50 ROM-Energy.Leo.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jun.22)
Cheers!
Anyone? pleaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeee
what info does you're bootloader show
Well I've got some new info!
I installed HSPL3 this evening, with 2.08SPL,
wiped the phone with task29, rebooted, put
in the USB cable, flashed the new dinik glass
16th july Energy Rom and that worked. After
that I hard resetted my phone and again put
in the USB, tried to flash a radio but now THAT
keeps stucking @ 96% (Radio_2_12_50_02_2).
What could that be? Tried under Vista, Windows 7
XP, 3 different laptops, other cable; everything.
I wiped it again and again. Also tried with 2.07 one
but that also doesn't work!
Do you have any idea?
em this is a good en lol, have you tried to flash a radio then hard reset then task 29 then flash rom then hard reset again?? its just ideas
Also tried ;-)
Doesn't work for me
Keeps hanging
Did you try the micr sd method. the one where you do not need to use your PC. Might be silly but it would eliminate any problem with the PC or cable.
will try it this evening
but I don't think thats the problem? because I CAN use my usb
to flash the energy rom
how long are you waiting? the reason I ask is because I flashed Radio 2.12 just a few hours ago and it hung at 96% for a couple min before it finally finished up.

idd, that radio version hangs for some time on 96%, so give it more time
Serious guys?
Hmmm then I will task29 my phone within a few minutes
and flash rom again + radio, and then just wait with the
radio until it's ready! Good plan!!!!
Still not working guys! I'm really really fed up with this phone.
Haven't been able to use the phone for ages now. Have tried
to flash radio and rom for about 1000x times; the TASK29
works, after that I flash the ROM that works 6/10 times,
after that I hardreset the phone, and sometimes it will boot
untill the white bootscreen and otherwise I can't even turn
it on (problem with 3-pins battery connector?) and I have to
wait or have to pull out the battery again and again. But after
all, the radio can't be flashed at all, it keeps hanging on 96%
over and over and over again.

Hello dude!
Try downloading another radio version.
Try also downloading again the 2.12 radio. It could be a download corruption! I heard a case like yours and it was caused by "bad download"
Tell us if it works, right?
Good luck!
Jooo
Tried with various versions, with more radio's and more CUSTOMRUU-versions, but it still doesn't work!
Any idea? Still doens't work
try
try flash your original rom from htc and change te HardSPL to the original one ike 1.66.00000 or 1.48.000000 and then flash the stock rom
It's not working, have done TASK29, tried to flash the stockrom but it's hanging on 9%, did task29 again and again and tried with various stockroms.
I was having the same problem but with radio , also 9% try flashing the original radio
Yeah well, what else can I do now?
I downloaded the WWE stockrom (1.43 or do I need a higher number) from the
official stock rom thread here at XDA
You should dowload it from htc site , at least is what i did then hardspl it to a 0000000 version like 1.48.0000000000000 or 43 what was that , then try an install the original os is should work at leas it worked for me
I dug up my old Atom Life since the HTC HD2 is in for repairs. But when I was going to flash it to a less buggy ROM something happened, and now it's stuck in DSUU mode. I can flash any ROM from the MINI-SDCard, extended and regular rom. But it doesn't help one bit, it boots to DSUU mode.
I can connect to it in bootloader mode with USB, but I get a model ID error with every ROM I try. Even if I flash the same ROM/Ext ROM first from the Mini SD and then try to flash again from USB I get that model ID error. Weird stuff... Anybody got a god idea to how I can fix this?

Maybe the file was corrupted, try downloading the ROM again or another WM6.5 ROM for Atom Life. Hope this helps.
Thanks for trying to help, but like I say in the first post I can flash any ROM from the SD Card and it still boots to DSUU mode. So I have tried that.
try to disconnect everything and remove the battery. Let the remaining set for about 5 minutes.
Then reinstall the battery and try to upgrade again. This time it happened to pass through.
Sorry, but I've tried that. I even left it for a couple of days without power this weekend, and it still didn't help.
I have the same problem.
anyone help please!
Doesn't seem like there is any help. My Atom is put away in a drawer.
the only thing you should try is :
clean your record button, actually for some device, i found stuck hardware key. if they stuck at important key such as "recorder" on atom life, this will always keep you booting to boot loader mode...
diassemble your device carefully and just spray any contact cleaner while pushing your broken key repeatidily or if you have correct tools and part, replace it...
if the problem still persist, then the only suspect is your NAND FLASH on the device actually broken/corrupt/have some damage sector... and nothing you can do about it...
or maybe someone can reformat it?
In case anybody stumbles over this thread some day I finally made it work again by removing both the USB and SD card. Then I was able to use up and down and enter on the D-pad to choose "Boot OS" and strangely enough it worked! I'm not sure if that is because I had already flashed 5-6 different ROMs from the SD card, but no matter it's working now. Talk about tricky device!
