No ActiveSync after Special Rom 1.2 - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

I just upgraded an old Wallaby to the special ROM without problems, but now it won't connect to activesync for more than two seconds, sometimes claiming an "error %d".
All my other devices sync just fine.
Is there an easy fix for this? I wanted to upgrade to a ROM from LumpiStefan's kitchen, but can't via .exe because of this problem.

Have you already tired a hard reset of the device?
Stefan

Tried a hard reset, yes, as well as putting it in bootloader once before resetting again.

Have you tried flashing an other ROM via Bootloader? Or reflashing the device?

No, because I was hoping to use an .exe I created through your kitchen.
Seems I'll have to try the SD-way after all.
Thanks again for a great resource, by the way. The ROMkitchen is still superb.

You need to HardSPL/SoftSPL for flashing to another ROM.

OK, tnx, but will new rom resolve my problem? And is it matter wich SPL(hard,soft) to do?
Get a ROM that doesn't include Extension ROM, then the problem will be gone (because the ROM will not call AutoConfig)
I have the same autoconfig problem, can't cid unlock for some reason. Give some names of wm6 roms without ext roms and I will try it.

Help! Problems with flashing ROM.

I have a HTC Hermes and I have been having some problems with my phone. I read on some threads that people have been having similar problems and a possibly solution would be to change the ROM and/or the Radio.
SO NOW I have been trying to update the ROM yet it keeps coming up with errors.
Errors: [222]- Device not responding.
[260]- Update Error
I have tried MANY things. Vista, XP, putting PPC in boot loader mode before hand, not using boot loader, changing settings of Active Sync (disable connection through USB). Each of these things have been tried off and on multiple times, to ensure the problem was not just a one time thing.
Please let me know if there are any known solutions. I am hoping this will solve my random hard resets, frozen screens, and data loss.

Did you flash HardSPL on your device? If not, you may be stuck, depending on what the issue is. Regardless, if you're getting connection-related errors when trying to flash, you should try using another cable as that may be a contributing cause to your issue.
yes I believe I did. Actually when i go into bootloader it actually says Olipro (aka Hard SPL). And yes I have tried various cables, not just one.
Use sd card method.
1. Format sd card fat32 and copy .nbh file to it. Rename to "hermimg.nbh".
2. insert sd card in phone and go to bootloader (hold power, ok key above flywheel and reset with stylus, hold in until the tri-colour screen appears).
3. As long as sd card is fat32 and herimg.nbh file is named properly, follow the prompts.
THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF HARD SPL V7 IS INSTALLED (I know you said you have it but this is a warning for others)...
Cheers...
I have heard about this step but to be honest I havn't heard of file formats nbh. I have a rom that I am using now (which I do NOT want to use anymore) that has a nbh file in the folder. BUT the ROM that I want to use (TNT and 1.19 Radio) do NOT have this file format, it does have .nbf though. Is there a difference and could you please give me some more help. Maybe some advice about where I could get nbh files for ROMs?
Thank you once again

An NBF file is not a Hermes ROM. The Hermes (and later devices) always use NBH files. (Well, not considering extracted .nb files)
EDIT: Under no circumstances should you try to flash non-Hermes ROMs! While the flashing would usually fail safely, do not take that risk. Always flash ROMs made for the Hermes.
Go to the wm06 forum on here, it has a heap of roms available to flash, most are now 6.1 but I have seen 6 now & then. Do a search for "Hermes 6.1 roms" and see what you come up with.
There are heaps of roms here so pick 1, don't ask whats best as each rom is a personal preference and what 1 person needs may not be for you so do some research.
You're lucky you haven't been flamed for NOT checking if the rom was for your device, though its early yet.....
Cheers...
It worked great thank you all. Now, I can test new ROMs and hopefully my phone will not continue to do the random hard resets and all. If it does I will continue to post on the thread.
Thanks again.
Just be aware that flashing the radio rom is the riskiest part of rom flashing. It has almost a 100% casualty rating of bricks if something goes wrong with the flash. For this reason most people recommend the sd card method as the safest (lets be honest, if you reset your Hermes in the middle of a flash or use a flat battery, you deserve a brick) as there are less chances of stuff-ups.
If the radio rom works well, LEAVE IT ALONE... Unless there is a MAJOR gain by upgrading its best to leave well enough alone.
Cheers...
So I did what you all told me to do. I used the SD to flash my ROM. I am now currently running TNT official Hermes. The phone WAS running fine but today it hard reset itself once again. I have decided that it is time to try to flash the Radio to see if this process will help it from the random hard resets that it has been going through. My question is: Are radio roms also built for specific phones or are they typically universal?
Also if anyone believes that the hard resets are not because of my radio and may be because of something else please say so.
Thanks again

Radio ROMs are most definitely NOT universal. They depend heavily on the hardware, which is different between different models. You should never, ever flash a non-Hermes radio ROM on your device. The one possible exception is the Trinity, which has similar radio hardware.
As for your hard resets, you should flash an official Hermes ROM first (find a version without a radio) and then flash a custom one. It's an issue with how Big-Storage is implemented in custom ROMs.
So I ended up trying out TNT (for HERMES) and didn't like it so I went back to Pays Lite (which does have the nbh file.) I also found custom radio roms and flashed a 1.56.70.11 radio for Hermes. And it seems like this might have worked but than again I have only used it for a little while. The phone did hard reset it self, but I believe that was because I was running to many things and it froze. I am going to continue using this and see how it ends up. IF by any chance I do run into the same problems what do you recommend I do. (remember I have tried multiple roms and now have tried a new radio also)
Thanks

1.56.70.11
As I said in my previous post, your hard reset issue should be solved if you first flash an official ROM (from HTC itself or a carrier) and then flash a custom one afterward.
As Trancecoder sai, I'd also check for bad blocks as this may be a symptom. Use MTTY to check and fix bad blocks but remember that there may be "branded" bad blocks done by the carrier.
Cheers...
Sorry for the late reply, I have been quite busy with other things. I would like to state that I went along with putting a stock ROM onto my Herm and left it on like that for about 1.5 weeks to make sure that it was working ok. I than uploaded Pays Lite once again (I love this ROM) and I have been using it for a few days now and it has been working fine. I recently added some mods like cabs and a new radio just yesterday and I will let you all know if anything else goes wrong. I thank you all for the great suggestions. I certainly learned a lot. Thanks
I'm going to try a different radio,current is 1.16.00.00.
I've unlocked with pofs V3a unlocker.
I've already flashed a few roms to find one I like.
Just worried about bricking it
When I go to flash a radio rom it states....
"Intended solely for 1.11 SPL.You MUST have 1.11 hard SPL installed to flash"
Pretty sure pofs unlocker installs 1.40 olipro?
Do I need to downgrade to SPL 1.11?
So many threads/posts to read my eyes are starting to bleed.
I've found the Hermes radio rom thread so loads to look at but which one
My first question is: Are you flashing by SD card or by USB?
Probably USB but do have sdcard.
I recently learned how to flash by SD. You must have hard spl to do this. It is much easier and sometimes even faster than doing it by usb, not to mention the most important part- it is safer. You may look in this thread to figure out how to do it.
SPL info Needed.
Thanks for your help Shortie but..........

I've not read anywhere that I MUST have 1.11 when flashing radio?
Pretty sure I have hard SPL 1.40.
I have downloaded SPL's V7 and V9 but not flashed them.
Is it ok to flash SPL V7 and then flash ANY radio

C550 Refusing to Flash any ROM via MTTY

I've been having a few odd problems trying to get my C550 to flash a ROM of any kind using MTTY or Tera Term. I had been planning to reflash an old QTek ROM that I had on there, with one of the newer WM6.x ROMs that you guys have managed to put together. To recap, my C550 already has SuperCID, the SPL has been reflashed using Patched RUU and now reports 1.0.77 rather than the 1.0.16 or my other stock C550.
I can enter the bootloader fine and can connect to it using Mtty, making it respond to successfully to info and format commands, but when I try writing a new ROM, it just sits there doing nothing. I know it takes a while to reflash, but on my device it doesn't actually do anything even if you leave it for a couple of hours. The log looks as follows:
Cmd>l c:\rom.bin
clean up the image temp buffer at 0x8C080000 Length 0x01C40000
MTTYDownloadImage "c:\rom.bin"
:F=c:\rom.bin
start download​
The phone itself can be successfully reflashed using a ROM install package such as that of the old QTek ROM, or another T-Mobile ROM I have. The device can also be made to dump the current ROM to the miniSD card, so the bootloader seems to be functional. Which makes me wonder why this isn't working? I've tried flashing with and without the sim card, and also with and without an sd card in the handset, but it doesn't seem to make any difference.
If anybody has any suggestions of something else I could try, I'd greatly appreciate it! I had been thinking of trying to find an image dump of a WM6 ROM that I could then restore from miniSD, so if anybody would be able to that, it would also be appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

Please ignore the post above, I realised the SPL upgrade didn't seem to take until I used a different download of spl566wm6_spfans2006.nbf. Everything works fine now anyway.
Cheers for the wonderful work guys

I'm getting the error [262] Update Error.

I was putting my Titan back down to stock so I could enable GPS (I had it working, but it stopped when I activated my Centro to get data back). Anyways, I forgot to unplug and plug back in the USB. Now no matter what I do It's telling me that the ROM Update utility has encountered communication errors with the device. I should also probably mention that I can still get to the boot loader itself. Any ideas?
Flash via sd card method.

How do I do that if I can't get to Windows Mobile to run the nueSPL executable?
Maybe you should have done some reading before you got into this flashing.

I actually did quite a bit of reading before flashing. My problem is that I didn't disconnect the USB cable like I should have when flashing back to the original boot loader. It stopped and now I'm stuck. I tried putting the bootloader the relocker tried to install on the SD card and named it TITAIMG, but it gets stuck at the gray screen saying "loading...". I tried the exitbl but it tells me that it can't find any sessions. I tried running the program again, but I wind up with communication errors. That's why I'm asking for help now, I've tried everything I've found to try...

What carrier do you have? Did you run the "GetBackToStockXV6800"?
What radio, Bootloader are you running?
"I tried putting the bootloader the relocker tried to install" (PLEASE CLAIRIFY).
I think it may be working now. I went back to what drew said about using the SD and I tried the one file I hadn't tried. I had tried all of the .nbh files in the directory (stock radio and bootloader), but not the stock ROM itself. I had assumed that since the program quit halfway through flashing the bootloader hadn't installed properly. It would appear I was wrong. So, thanks for the help, Drew, and thanks for being so willing to help cac2us.

Your welcome,
Have you decided to go with a custom ROM, or are you ready to try PPC Kitchen (BuildOS)?
Keep in mind, if you flash a custom ROM with programs that you later want to update with newer versions, you may not be able to uninstall the original versions.
I'm thinking I'll try PPC kitchen. My biggest problem now is deciding how badly I want windows mobile 6.5. I love the touch friendly GUI and the desktop version of IE, but I'm not able to run TVU or Pandora because they use more memory than I have available.

I found that "ZOOM BROWSER" is quite a hog. And "Titanium" eats more than "SPB Mobile Shell 3".
And with "NueKernel", 6+mb. from the camera is just a soft reset away.
But I mainly load apps that I can't find a cab file for, so when an update comes out, I can just update without re-coocking the ROM.
Enjoy.

HD2 Bricked!-Upgrade Rom Code Error - not able to get out. PLEASE HELP!

Hello all!
I am in desperate need of some help from you all, and the great rom chefs here.
What exactly happened:
From past 2-3 roms (pandora 1.0, 1.1, PDAVIET-v6,v7) i have been having regular MANILA freezes. it would freeze within 12 hours of flashing, and in the last 2 flashes, it froze within 1 hour, without me installing anything.
Titanium worked fine. untill that started hanging too.
So i tried reflashing the 1.6 official rom, thinking that might clear up some bugs as its the official rom.
while trying to flash it (from my sd card directly) it gave up an error - Invalid DEVICE.
I restarted and went into bootloader again, and then i started getting this error :
UPGRADE ROM CODE ERROR
PLEASE TRY AGAIN
Now i have tried reflashing from the computer, and also from the sd card directly, 1.6 official , pandora 1.1, pdaviet v7, but to no success.
All the time it still gets stuck on that screen.
I have tried hspl'ing it again, it was successful - the hspl procedure, but then still no rom loads onto it.
Even tried using the sspl, but still nothing happens. With SSPL, it shows flashing as 0%, and stays there forever!
PLEASE HELP guys!
in a real bad situation!
Thanks!
so what is the device status currently?
can u boot into a main manilla or titanium screen?
Can you get to bootloader? Were you flahsing ROMs using SSPL or HSPL?
hi..
i dont know if this might work, try to get stock rom, xxx.exe, rename xxx.exe to xxx.rar and unpack it. you should see RUU_signed.nbh and rename to leoimg.nbh. put leoimg.nbh in the root of your sd card. and flash use vol down+power button.
oh, there was a mistake!
When you firstly flashed your device with 1.6 official from sd card, this removed hspl and the device checked your rom's region id. I guess you have used offical roms from other areas. So the process stopped when the device checked the cid.
At this stage, you should find out the offical rom from your area, and re-flash it from sd card, then everything will be fine.
But you didn't, you tried re-hspl and sspl...and i don't know what the consequence will be.
So? Did you get it fixed mate?
Any update? if you haven't fixed it yet PM me.
If it is de wrong region rom you tried to flash do you might need to flash it with a goldcard?
hope you got it sorted
Just flash your original rom using htc ruu will do. been there, done that
yeah flash the 142 or 148 rom that is appropriate for your device.. and use teh exe/ruu that came with it rather than sdcard.
what's the betting you needed the goldcard to flash 161? which is why you're having issues trying to reflash it ?
HSPL
Hi,
You could try this,
1) flash HSPL first.
2) flash the stockrom one more time from storage card.
This will erase hardspl so if you want to flash custom roms again you need to flash HSPL one more time after you flashed the stockrom.
Succes,
Leo
I have the same problem and I need the official 1.42 rom... do u know where I can find it?

Your Leo was probably locked on your operator
at this point You've got to flash HTC official ROM with a Golcard.
Or your operator's rom directly from bootloader.
yep. I'm actually trying to get a gold card...
I've tried to create a gold card and hard reset but the setup fail

You have to flash 1.43 of your Region thru boatloader. If boatloader does not work thru goldcard.
I tried with italian 1.43 official rom also but the setup keeps stopping... Tried also using a goldcard, created using qmat
