I need someone to provide me a proper guide that will not lead me to other topics and the files i should use in order to upgrade mu Orange M600 SPV with windows mobile 6.1 and some greek support.
Thanks a lot and sorry if i act like a total brat but i tried everything in the guides and i think its too misleading for a newbie like me.
I use this guide:
1. copy the 3 files from the jumpspl.zip (attached at the bottom of this post )to the
ROOT directory of your Prophet ( NOT NOT NOT inside the windows folder,)
2. UNPLUG/disconnect YOUR DEVICE from PC,
3. Execute the SPL.lnk IN THE DEVICE (use Total Commander recommended or you
will make errors), then you see Prophet in all bright or white screen,
4. Then plug back the USB port ( connect to computer), here, nothing will be seen in the prophet
(make step 5 NOW or you will receive errors and need to do over again),
5. THEN execute the Rom Upgrade Utility (ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe ( or G4), in the
HardSPL folder that you had downloaded, all activities will only take 2-3 minutes to go,
nothing will be seen in the Prophet screen. if you see unknown device detected (not normal) from PC, you need to repeat the above procedures.....
(P.S. if connection Error, NO PANIC, soft reset OR remove battery for half a minute and try again. )
6. after the flash completed, it will restart automatically.

But the SPL.lnk is not running either using total commander or the file explorer.What to do?
Use "Prophet Tools", there is a link in my signature.
This will allow you to HardSPL. Then, you need to get a ROM. I'd recommend one of gullums Coffie ROMs, as they have multilanguage support. They may not be WM6.1, but as far as I know, there are no WM6.1 Greek ROMs ATM.
I used your tool but after i press the hardspl the screen goes white and then nothing.Also it says error connection 204

deactivated your firewall too.
The screen should go white, as the new SPL does that!
i dont have a firewall
Are you using Windows XP or Vista?
I am using windows Xp,please someone contact me on msn so i can tell you exactly whats going on and maybe help me fix it.It goes to the white screen but then it disconnects for some reason.Please add me to your msn [email protected]
thanks a lot
I wish to publicaly say a thanks to l3v5y for all his great help.
Thanks a lot m8...
Would be quite usefull if you would post your solution here.
I also want to hard SPL my prophet but if i run the prophet tools select G4 and HARD SPL my PDA goes into a white screen and after a short time there is an error on my pc.
So i think i have almost the Same error but my code says ERROR 208 (CANT OPEN FILE)...
Yes i did have the same error.
Download this file and you will be ok:
http://rapidshare.com/files/112210743/HardSPL_G4.zip.html
If you need any more information i ll gladly help you.
That probably means I have the wrong/non existant file in Prophet Tools...
I had the same problem so he will be ok.
I have the same Problem. I tried the "Prohpet Tools" and the "HardSpl" tool (seems to be the same?).
As soon as i'm asked if i want to let jumpspl.exe access my prophet (TC500) and i choose yes the screen is fading to white, the usb-connection is closed and my prophet is doing nothing.
I tried it a few times and also tried another usb-cable and another usb-Port but nothing helped. My os ist xp sp3, firewall and Anti-Virus are disabled.
I tried to download the mentioned file in this thread but it isn't available anymore.
Please help me, this is getting on my nerves.
Thank you

There is a WIKI for this, but I guess you're to much in a stress to search...
First of all, Allthough it looks like that connection fails on several moments, don't panic. That's only normal, just be patient after some nailbreaking minutes (or even more...) things will continue.
What to do with your device now? Put it in bootloader mode:
Press the Camera button and soft reset. It will startup with a tricolor screen.
DISable the "allow USB connection" setting within ActiveSync
Connect your device to the USB port of your PC
Run the WM5 RUU again that you were using for the "Step1"
And now, just be patient!! First it seems to stop at 80% but it will continue. Then it pauses again at 95% but don't worry. Eventually it will make it to 100%.
After that: do nothing, don't touch nothing, just start the "Upgrade.bat" from the "Step2" folder. That will take some time to before it finishes, but it will. At last, DON'T FORGET TO MAKE A PROPER HARD RESET!
Rondol1 thank you. You don't know how helped me now. I lost ten years of my life. It works, thank you.

I advice u following this way:
1 - U unplug the battery for few minutes, then plug it into ur device
2 - Charge ur battery until it full (about 2 hours). Note: DO NOT USE USB_CHARGE, just use the adaptor.
3 - Uninstall the current Active Sync, then install the newest Active Sync from Microsoft (ver. 4.5)
4 - Turn on ur Prophet, then make it in the Bootloader status, connect with PC, up the step 1 (from PDAViet). Be patient until it complete.
5 - Continue with any step 2 u like.
Good luck.

Have you tried this yet? [solution] G4 SoftSPL Flash any ROM to CID locked G4 [UPDATED]
You should be able to use SoftSPL with Vista without much of a problem HOWEVER, it is reccomended you use a computer with XP because should the update fail, Vista cannot communicate with the phone in tri-color mode(bootloader).
it says
it says will not work on vista...
I do not know what ancient version of shelltools you use or what strange ROM you try to flash... I used shelltools multiple times without problems (faria real thing, crossbow reloaded, pandora. xda mobile, wrcx. tnt and others, sometimes in several versions). All these were custom WM6 ROMs.
Mirek
yea
i have been using shell tool for the pass couple of months im tired of the precautions taken with it and if gives you headaches when you reflash
I do this when using shelltools:
1. I flash my provider's ROM
2. I use the CAB files acccompanying shelltools (cert...cab, enablerapi.cab)
3. I restart Wizard
4. Again point 2.
5. I flash the ROM I want with shelltools
6. If the ST do not end, I cut it after 30 minutes (all will be ok)
If anything goes wrong (it happened only once) I flash my providrer's ROM and repeat.
As far as I understand it is *impossible* to brick the Wizard with shelltools. So complete safety.
Mirek
i tried shelltool on a xp machine and im still getting custom rom error any help will be appreciated please
No idea. Maybe try to get another version of shelltools... Maybe the one you use is wrong...
And what ROM do you try to flash?
Mirek
after ur post i downloaded shell tool from another location and im still getting the same comment i even tried another rom "wizard love "
The picture is ok, I guess you misunderstood how the ST works...
a) Press "Extract OS".
b) After the OS is extracted, the button "Flash OS" will be allowed. Press it.
c) Then it will flash.
Mirek
mirekluza thanks alot man im officially now on WM6 "tnt 5 "
NOTE : for every one using windows VISTA when u click flash OS the app will be "waiting for response " Don`t panic just wait for 45 min and unplug the usb and make a hard reset it will work fine after the rest
theres many roms you can flash...all you have to do is just be patient and not to get eiger while flashing alot of people misunderstand when you enableRapi Reboot your Phone.
i just flashed a new rom just follow the basic intructions given plz dont leave the detail parts out
Using Shelltool on Vista
As mentioned previously, when you run Shelltool on Vista it generally won't ever return and tell you it's finished! However, you can actually tell when it's done for sure, rather than just waiting a certain amount of time.
When you're ready to start Shelltool, that is, you've enabled RAPI, rebooted your Wizard, and connected it to your system, open File Explorer on your desktop at the top level ("Computer") and open Pocket_PC (or whatever you've named your Wizard). Go to the root folder of the Wizard and just leave the Explorer window open. (Note: you have to have the explorer window open BEFORE you start to flash, or you won't be able to open your Pocket_PC folders.)
Start Shelltool as instructed and start the flash process. Now go back to the explorer window and refresh it. You'll see a file called "itsutils.log" in the top level folder of the Wizard. Open the file, and you'll see the detailed logging of each block that Shelltool writes. The logging for each block is five or six lines long (I don't have an example right now.) Regardless, the OS is 0x38e0000 (hexadecimal) blocks long. When the log file reaches block 38e0000 it starts spewing error messages with that block number over and over again. (Note: you have to close the file and reopen it to get it to update. So, it it's not yet reached block 38e0000, just close it and wait a little longer.)
When it starts doing that, the flashing process is done!
It seems that, at least on Vista, Shelltool is not looking for the end of the data file correctly, so it tries to write block 38e0000 over and over again, but, since there is no block 38e0000, it just logs an error message.
At this point, if you disconnect the USB cable, Shelltool will THEN issue an "end" message. Hard reset as instructed.
I should point out that one of the problems with Shelltool is that you can ONLY flash the OS, not the extended ROM, radio, splash screen, etc. That makes it sorta limiting.

The file "JumpSpl"cannot be opened. Either it í not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. U might need to reinstall or restore this file.

1. after the spl.lnk, you will see nothing on the prophet,
2. if connection error, soft reset and try again,
3. are you really following my steps?
4. please make more carefully,
5. did you make the hardSPL yet?
please read again my steps in the link on my signature below...
Chao~~
P.S. Vista version Windows environment.... not tested.
Same here....
I followed all the steps mentioned and I did this many times,
I have G4 and windows 6.0
1) Copied all 3 files above windows folder
2) Disconnected USB cable
3) Ran spl.lnk file, got white screen
4) Connecting to USB FAILS!!!!!
I tried doing soft reset and removed the battery for a while, restarted my computer.. NOTHING helped out.
Bottom line is whenever I connect my USB with white screen its not connecting to ActiveSyn and also the downgrade exe also giving error message like no connection with PC.
Help me out with this.
Now it works, I didnt do hardSPL which is nothing patch must be done before making the 1st step mentioned in this thread. I saw that in another thread and now it works fine. Thanks, its really fast!!!
Guys i tried to upgrade my imate jasmin, to wm6 the problem was that it started to upgrade the rom but the process was interrupted, when i tried to turn it on again it does not pass the initial blue screen that gives the info of the rom. The active sync does not work because the PDA does not connect to the computer and doesn´t pass from the initial blue screen.
Is there anything you can do, or the PDA is to the trash.
Hope you can help thanks. http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif

Bro. Try the methode found in the sticky:
FLASHING TOOL For all nk.nbf (WM6.1), 3 color bootup? SOLUTIONS ... in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547
In ur case, although the connection seem disabled, we could still force the activesync to work for flashing. Just right click the activesync icon in lower right corner of ur pc, choose connection, force it to search the usb. retry once or twice if u r not sure, then try to reflash the rom while the activesync seem still searching for devices. If it won't start, then the better way is to follow the step from Dioxda2 above. If it started halfway as before mean u have to re download the rom with its all suitable methode such as Hardspl, jumpSpl etc.
This work on my Dopod 818pro while stucked on 3 colour bootloader screen. Hope it will work on ur case too. Good luck.
thanks bro, hope it works, i will tell you later if the pda is back online

Hi again, bro. Any progress? Good luck.
Hello.
For some reason HardSPL does not work in my device (I patch it but I still see SPL 2.0.20.bla instead of G4) so in the past I used dioxda2 LazyTool to update to 6.5 and it worked fine after some tries.
However today I tried my luck updating to 6.5.1 23506 from bikertibi first using his tool but after seeing that it still doesn't work (aka doesn't patch spl) I tried using LazyTools. But it doesn't work: it always get stuck in the white screen (pda) and never leaves 0% (in computer screen). After some time a connection error is detected. Tried a lot of times without success.
Device is Prophet G4 branded as Qtek S200 and is running wm5 (installed after last update leave me in three-color boot screen).
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

1. thanks for using my LazyTool,
2. tips for success in NVID or Flashing...
2.1 force bootloader (better tofor NVID),
2.2 stop all related connection services like My Mobiler, Mobile commander...... @ PC,
2.3 disable today plugins,
2.4 make a softreset or clear storage or a hardreset if needed,
2.5 check your usb cable and must use rear panel usb ports.....
3. Attention needed for flashing NVID,
3.1 it will stay @ 95% for a while, so please be patient,
3.2 NVID is a WM5 rom, you may immediate make a softreset before its autorun/config for time saving (you should be feeling quite hurry in ths stage ),
3.3 make an good activesync connections with NO data selected for sync,
Forn those "bullet-proof" Prophets (no change upon hardSPL, please use lazytool
SHOULD BE OK

I can flash NVID_RUU (windows mobile 5 "original") without problems.
I can't flash 6.5.1 23506 from bikertibi . Whenever I install using his tool it leaves me in three-color boot screen (after 100%, device restarts, three-color). If I try lazy tool it always gives me a connection error. PDA screen stays white, in the computer screen progress never leaves 0% and a connection error eventually appears. I've been trying for days now... :/
Any idea or suggestion?

Do I really need to use a XP machine? Is there a way to fix it using my Vista machine?
I had tried on downloading a different device driver for my dopod, but its still the same.
But if I have to, I will try to look for an XP machine
