That my friend is a communication error... I had it frequently when trying to install the latest HardSPL under Vista... You can go HERE and see a list of error codes....
ERROR [248~260] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs when there is an “open port error” before upgrading the CE ROM image.
Solution: You can reset the device and run RUU again. If you still encounter an “OPEN PORT ERROR” again, reset your computer and try again.

Hermes Getting code 260
I am having the exact same issue. My problem is on a hermes (ATT 8525)
i have the "update error" problem as well. i have read almost all the threads and searched so much i almost found jimmy hoffa, but nothing
i have tried everything i could think of. i reseted the device and computer so many times i think it will "ware out" soon . i tried official roms, hard spl, unlockers... you name it i've tried it and still i cant get past any RUU. after the bootloader it should start, but i doesn't
i've even called the t-mobile tech support but the answer was "our ruu works fine for us, we don't know where the problem is...bad luck"
if some one has any (well don't take this literally) advice he is more than welcome. now i'm gonna chill out
thanx in advance from a frustrated vario II user
i've located the problem. it's an activesync error (code 43). searched for fixes, but unsuccessfully. if anyone has resolved the problem or has relevant info, please post it. thanx
after endles repeats i've somehow managed to get past the error. don't know how. i upgraded the rom smoothly, like i never had any problems

Dear friends
I was tring to upgrade my iMate Pocket PC also know as Himalaya with windows2003 SE , while upgrading I faced problems, the upgarde failed and now I am just getting no display and OS too. The only message displayed is
Serial
v1.03
nothing is working please help
bye with regrads,
your unit is still okay; even better that the usb version is showing on the screen. it's simply stuck on bootloader mode. what kind of problems did you encounter resulting in the failed upgrade?
one suggestion i can give before you downgrade is to try and proceed with the upgrade to se. put your unit back on the cradle but don't expect activesync to "recognize" the device. just put it back on the cradle and rerun the upgrade to se.
same thing happened when i upgraded but to wm2005. the screen showed error and the only thing on the screen was the usb version. i simply cradled back the unit and ran the upgrade. worked.
cheers
Hi
Thanks a lot, i tired those steps before and even now I did but its not upgarding I am gettig following error as show i the attachment. Please let me know what to do
thanks a lot

oh, it appears that you have the "wrong country" id issue. i'm not entirely sure as to how to avoid this but i believe it has something to do with the correct rom version (guys, correct me if i'm wrong). where did you get the rom you used for upgrading to se? downgrading might be the only trick if there is no rom for saudi-based users...but if any chaps presently living there and were successful in upgrading their units perhaps you could share the rom version/s you used?
cheers

To overcome the Country ID Error, first you need to install this tool...
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Tools/ER2003Edit_1_4_26.zip
Open the ROM file you want to upgrade, then change the appropriate 'Operator ID' code, after this click 'Save ROM image'.
Upgrade ur device. You will no longer face the error message.
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

I still have the same issue, even when using the RUU Wrapper and any nhb.
don't use vista
Ok, got one step furthur

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.
I was trying to upgrade to radio v1.43 in the hope that battery life was improved over 1.41 however when it got to 8% it stopped and gave me an error i can't remember After atempting to recover, it got off the three colour screen now the 3100 stalls on the blackshadow version4 screen (bootloader screen?) and goes no further. I tried reflashing but got a 260 and using mtty, only getting 2 com port options, didn't offer any help.
I'm really sorry to have not been able to sort this with reading through the relevant post but I haven't found a solution. What else can I try?
Hi,
Could you pls advise what is your device made, model, SPL version ... etc.
Also did you try to do Hard reset?
I'm using now black MAJIK (and few days ago black shadow) with radio 1.43 with no problem.
its the SPV m3100 When I decided to go Black shadow I read up on mr vanx and made sure I had all the things I needed. If I remember right, when I came to upgrade to Majik the auto detect found the second option down
SPL-1.04/1.10 - 1.09 Bootloader. I've realized since I had a spaz and ran the RUU from the archive this time. From what I've since read thats not too cleaver.
I have tried a hard reset and took the battery out instead of pressing space.
I dont know if this information on the starter screen is of use
M 05
S 04
B 05 D 3lak
I'm not sure, but hard reset doesnt mean you take the batery out.
Please check that link:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_For_Beginners#hardreset
I was in your position (hanged on booting) few days ago, and when i did hard reset, it changes every thing to basic normal condition.
i meant when i did a hard reset when it asked me to press space to reboot I took the battery out. I tried again this time pressing space to reboot but I still get stuck on the loading screen. I can't connect by USB to the PC I'm guessing the drivers on the phone haven't loaded and I'm stuck as to what to do.
Does anyone have any ideas?
try look at it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286755
ok I've tried everything I can think of to connect the 3100 to the computer so I can reflash it but mtty gives only com 1 and com2 but no USB and neither those two work, active sync wont connect so I disabled it as suggested and running the radio ruu and wrapper wont querry the device. I am now at a loss as to what to do next someone must know what I should do. Please?
what is your SPL?

I suggest you check again, press and hold the side OK button and the power button...then put the stylus into the hole in the bottom of the unit.
yeah I've done that it's "SPL-1.09"
I had this exact problem yesterday, with the same bootloader too. The phone would not pass the splash and IT refused to upgrade. I ended up downgrading to a shipped wm5 rom (in my case the cingular 1.30.502.1_1.11.00.00) which to my surprise actually worked as no rom radio or spl upgrade moved at al on my phone. Then upgraded back to black majik. I hope this helps.
Thanks. I downloaded the trial of wm5 from the windows website and it asked me to install .NET framework version 1 so I got that but it turns out to be 2.0 not 1.1 It would say it had repaired but it would say this with or without the phone connected.

Just download a WM5 ROM from the wiki page!
ok tried this too no luck.
Trying to use the one from orange (linked to through wikki) I get an 294 invalid vendor error however active sync cannot connect yet of course so is this to be expected?
I have however gotten a connection with mtty which is a step forward dunno what to do with it yet though except trying the password 0000000000000000 command but it not disabling the password. This then lead me to read for a further hour how to change it and I've got to be honest; it beat me. I have No idea what the hell its talking about. My head hurt with so much reading.
I get a no gsm pop up v briefly on loader. I so want my phone back
I have since tried CID unlocker just so i get something installed onto this brick but I either get a connection error or it telling me it can't install for some other reason. I can not set the password in mtty to 0000000000000000 so how do I do that and is this the first step to getting things sorted? "just running a rom install" is not happening I can get a USB connection in mtty and that is it. Is the fact i'm running SPL 1.09 a problem? I'm getting precious little help guys If i'm posting in the wrong place or something please let me know. I need thing thing back now. Hours are drifting by with me trying to get some head knowledge but I still need some guidance please

can u flashing HARD V7?,i think better u have IPL 1.04 SPL 2.10olipro first ,then try to flashing radio?
and did u try SD card.
In bootloader can anyone here connect with active sync? I can't so updating rom and radio flashes in the usual way isn't possible. Trying the hard spl again it tells me to make sure active sync is connected and as it isn't it throws back a 262 update error. 0% on the hermes and that's currently as far as I can get. I have no means with which to access the memory card.
The reason you get an invalid vendor ID is because your CID doesnt match....download a ROM which is for your device (an orange one?)...then try.
You need to read the wiki alot more before trying anything else since you are not aware of the vendor ID error...nor the fact you MUST use HardSPL.
I linked to the orange ROM from wikki and tried installing it. it was while installing THIS ROM SPV_M3100_ROMUpdate_0407.exe I got invalid vendor error.
Installing a recent DL on HARD spl v7 I get a 240 open file error that's one I haven't had before.
With all other attempts they all say they want an active sync connection.
I can not connect to the phone through active sync
so all attempts by me to flash anything to the phone using an RUU fails.
All rite here we go, in advanced i thank u guys for trying to help me out here.
First, i'm a n00bie compared with the most of u guys.
My Device:
Tytn Herm 300
OS: Schaps Purple 3.30c
SPL: Hard-Spl 2.10 oli
Radio: 1.16.00.00 !Hmzz...that's the problem!
My phone functionallity sucks...some how it keep loosing connection while i see the phone indication bar up to 3 bars. So i decided to do something about it.
Beeing a noob i thought it got to do something with the OS. So i upgrade it to Schaps's wonderfull purple WM6 Hermes 3.30c and loaded the Hard SPL 2.10 oil V7. All went great, and my Hermes never looked so cool before.
But now i'm trying to upgrade my radio, which is still version 1.16.00.00, to what ever better version. I tried every radio upgrade possible from this list:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...actedRadioRoms
Every single one starts well. passed the information retrieving from my phone. Confirmed the update, and then there was the installation progress bar....
All versions of the radio roms i downloaden get stuck in here. It doesn't even start..0% and error... And really i dun have any idea why.
So after re-flashing a gazillion times, i decided to ask help to the allmighty XDA community. So pls, if anybody there got a suggestion or the solution...i would be so thankfull and will slaughter a goat to worship you
If you've got schaps Rom and HardSPL on your phone then you obviously don't have problems flashing or with PC/phone comms.
When you try flashing the radio, how long do you wait before deciding it doesn't work? I've found that some of them can take what seems like a really long time and I'm tempted to unplug and start again.
Maybe try again, then go make yourself a cup of tee/coffee or get a beer then come back 10 minutes later. If the upgrade still hasn't worked we'll have to look a bit deeper

I waited till the Program says connection error...and send me to recovery proces. And i've been making hella tons of coffee after trying to flash that many Radio Roms. Any other suggestions? I'm so desperate
Ok, maybe some more info...
Do you see 'NO GSM' during the phone boot process?
Do you have no radio at all or just intermittent reception?
Are you running Vista?
What is the connection error number?
If you've lost the radio but have hard SPL it may just be a case of re-flashing an original manufacturers ROM (which will include the radio) then start your upgrading again afterwards. Don't forget to back-up data before flashing.
If you do flash a manufacturers shipped rom - check that you still have HardSPL afterwards.

Well the weird part is "No GSM" appeared occasionally...some times it shows it sometimes it's not showing it.
No...i'm a Vista hater. And dun have the original manufacturers ROM. I've got the "T-Mobile Vario II" from The Netherlands..so if anybody got a link for the original version i'd be thankfull.
The Radio it self is intermittent and very inpredictable...for example:
Radio indicator says i got full recieve:...but i can't call or recieve any.
Connection error: 262 (which is, if i'm not mistake a connection error.) Which is bull cuz i'm re-running every other ROM's upload with the same way and succeded/
Radio indicator says no reception and shows an exclamation mark:...and my GF just called me to hurry up and pick her up :/
But the weird part is...it seems that my radio ROM is locked somehow. I can upgrade or downgrade SPL's and OS ROM's but not the Radio ROM.
I've tried to use MTTY by now and followed the manual bellow: (Problem 5)
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems#problem5
But it began with invalid password. Procede as written and it didn't helped.
More suggestions are welcome
My bad...i didn't looked well enough. It is saying No GSM the whole time.
More information:
I've checked the Device information on the Hermes now some information are blank:
Radio: Blank
Protocol version: Blank
IMEI: Blank
All other information field are filled. Been spending hours reading tutorials and manuals...and nothing. HELP!
OK,
This isn't a problem I've had myself, but loads of other people have and there are quite a few threads on how to unbrick from here... you're going to have to do a bit of reading.
This page shows the different combinations of OS/radio/brick type etc and should point you in the right direction for the correct course of action http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
Then read through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286755 . It's got really long but read the beginning where POF describes the types of problem and also the solutions. Then it's probably best to jump to somewhere near the end and pick someone who has a similar problem.
It sounds to me as though you need to just flash a radio in nbh format, but please do some more reading before you do this to check my advice - as I said at the beginning, I haven't had this problem so I'm only giving advice from what others have written.

I am really thankfull of ur post. Unfortunately, i've been doing some reading. Including the link u gave me. The problem is that i can't upload/flash Radio in nhb format.
As i described in the first place, i can't load a nhb format radio in RUUWrapper.exe properly. It can start the proces..but it always end up with a connection error code 260/262 during the installation progres bar (0%).
The solutions some ppl tried in ur link is often not my case. And the similar cases i have tried where i end up with the same grumpfy situation.
have you tried to flash the radio using the SD card method? I too have a cable connection problem but I fear mine may be hardware failure.
Yap...and no luck
Hey guys...sorry if this has been covered. I tried searching the forums and can't seem to find anything on it.
All of the roms seem to be plug it in, install it and BLAM, you're ready to go.
My issue is that I get a communication error everytime I try to install any roms or the HardSPL. The exact error given is "The ROM Update Utility has encountered communication errors during the update process. The program will guide you step-by-step to recover from the error so you can continue with the update."
While performing the updates, I hear the sound as if my USB disconnects, then it reconnects after it restarts into the multi-colored screen. It shows "Security disabled" at the top of the screen. It proceeds to the loading bar and just sits at 0% until it comes up with the disconnect screen.
I'm using the HTC Touch Pro running WM6.1 on the Sprint network.
Again, sorry if this has already been discussed, I just couldn't find anything on it.

Your phone's cdma. This is a gsm forum. I'm assuming that you're trying to brick your phone with the gsm hard spl and not trying to flash the proper hard spl. Stop doing that, your phone is getting pissed at you. Go to ppcgeeks or the cdma (Herman, not Raphael) forum here.
haha leave it to me to find the wrong way to do something. I appreciate your heads up Ted!

Hi I have the same problem on a GSM phone.

What is the problem with the RUU update?
I have searched for a solution to the RUU update/upgrade problem; none so far. Apparently, it is a major issue. I am interested in upgrading my Windows CE on my Xperia 6.1 to 6.5. I must have tried over a dozen times. The update process stops at 0% and Error [262] is reported. What can we do to resolve this? Is it compatibility or scalability issue? is it a problem with the software? The fact that it is working for some . . . and not for others is a source of concern about the stability of the software and this has potential implications; or it may well have to do with the hardware limitations of the PDA. Any ideas of a workaround?
You might try the Experia forum. You also might want to try Experia Roms.
I used to experience this issue as well. I simply go into communications and hit the USB to PC connection. Then remove the advanced functionality check. This has resolved many of the communication errors when playing with ROMS. This has been true with both GSM and CDMA devices.
I can confirm the issue. I have a 1st day release Fuze and flashed HardSPL no problem and have been making my roms ever since. But my cousin just got his new AT&T Fuze through his company and it refuses to HardSPL.
I went through several versions of the HardSPL and tried installing new drivers for the phone while in bootmode... all with no luck.
When connected through Activesync or Mobile Center, running the HardSPL brings up a confirmation windows on the phone, allowing reboots the device. It gets stuck at the black screen and times out. I've tried manually putting the phone in bootmode and trying it, but never gets past 0%.
I wonder if newer model TouchPro's are coming out with a revised bootloader?
Dunno if i can link to another forum. If not, appolgize and Admins remove the link than please.
For the 262 error, look here:

Yes they are coming with a new bootloader. I just got my phone replaced from ATT and the new one came with 1.95 version while originals were 1.90. There is no HARD-SPL out for 1.95.
The way to do it now is to flash an old original AT&T rom with the 1.90 bootloader (since it's original, it won't require HardSPL). Then go ahead and everything should work as described in this forum/wiki.
Interseting. Sounds like a winner. Next time he comes around I'll try this.
Any idea where I can get a AT&T older rom that has the 1.90 HardSLP on it? I am having the same issue with the Error 262 update error.
Thanks

You should probably go to your ATT store and tell them you'd like to get the official Hard SPL update.
I am really struggling with this. Do I have to the FLASH HardSPL or can I just go straight to the flashing my preferred ROM. I can not get get the FLASH HardSPL to work because of this Error 262. Please someone tell me where I am going wrong with this!!!! I am bout to pull my last hair out!

If u want to use not the official rom made for ur provider and phone, hardspl is the only way. Any custom rom needs hardspl. Otherwise ur phone will not accept the rom.
But look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410150
and flash the stock 1.90 SPL first, then u are ready for hardspl.
Description how to do stock spl is in this thread. Its normally meant for going back to stock for repair, but it should also solve ur issue.
NOT SHURE BECAUSE IN THE CDMA SECTION, IS UR PHONE CDMA OR GSM. MY SOLUTIUON IS FOR GSM !!!!!!
U SHOULD CHANGE THE POSTING SECTION IF ITS GSM !!!!!
Try doing the HardSPL in a Windows XP machine (needs .NET Framework 2.0 and ActiveSync). Goodluck.
i had the same problem as you and i maybe have a solution for you
go to your usb settings and look if you have a check box saying something about advanced networking. if it is indeed checked uncheck it and your problem will be gone hopefully
i did it on my telus touch pro and i am now able to upgrade my phone to winmo 6.5
