I fried my prophet while upgrading to wm6 - help required - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development

Hi guys,
Today I tried to upgade my prohet to wm6. I used crystal v4 rom and followed the instructions from the sticky topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350033
Everything went well and the process ended with 100% upload. However after flashing the screed went red,green blue and the only things on the display are:
"IPL 2.10.001
SPL 2.10.001"
I tried to restart the phone and to hard reset it but the screen is always the same.
What can I do about it?

I managed to upload RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID rom and my prophet works again. Subject to be closed.

If you flash using the "NEW" method, be sure that your SPL is 2.GX.4PDA before flashing the ROM (you have a G4 device, so 2.G4.4PDA.).

Ensure that your battery has juice. Remove it and charge separately via cradle battery slot. Once full pop it back in and confirm that the red limit switch is properly closed.
Hit Green+DPad+Red+Power+Reset to get into BootLoader mode. Shove it back into the cradle and flash with the ROM linked below. In case after flashing soft reset does not work attempt hard reset that should do the trick.
After that you can flash your Xda II to your heart's content.

Need help with flashing error.

Hi,
I have a G3 Prophet, I did flash it with WM6 before & it worked but now every time i try to flash with [pdaviet] 4.0.0.0.4s_pv or other WM6 roms i get the same freakin error " Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe its in use?"
I tried restarting my activesync & rebooted the pc (winxp), The funny thing is when i try to flash with the NOID WM5 flash it works great.
I also flashed a G4 Prophet & it worked.
Before reflashing...
U need to downgrade to WM5 OEM with e.g : RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID
(Look for on this board )
I had the same problem.

Any other suggestions ??

1.When you get to the boot screen, let WM5 start, tap once and do a hard reset.
2.Load WM6.
I just tried that, still no go. ANy other suggestions ?

If you followed exactly what others suggested, it should be okay. Read the Sticky notes on top of the forum and follow EXACTLY word by word.
If you think you have done so but still failed, there is another way to get around the "itsutils.dll in use" problem -- just copy the 2 .cabs (Cert_SPCS.cab and EnableRapi.cab) in the folder of the new ROM, into the PPC phone any directory and run them. then repeat the 2nd step. It will go away. But that is not a clean method.
Hope it helps. Good luck.

Hi.

Anyone knows what the fault is?
PS. This is the new Prophet that I got as a replacement for the old, bricked one...

Try to move the install folder to C:/
I'm not sure if it is the same error message, but months ago I had the same prob and after this it worked.
Good luck
Tried, no luck...

In the WM6 install folder ou will find 2 .cab files.
Bring them to the mobile and install them.
After that try again.
Should work.
Did you perform step1 before running Crystal upgrade?
I had the same problem... It worked successfully on a different computer.

I have now tried 6 different computers, no luck. Believe that the fault is that I must unlock the phone or something. Donno, maybe the easiest thing is to sell the whole phone and get one a little more "programming friendly"?

I saw from one of the thread, somebody also has the same exact problem, this is caused by the path is too long. It is suggested to put it in C:\, which you said you have done. The other person reported that it's working after he moved the installation file. I dun understand why it wouldn't work with yours.
Here is the post, finally found it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1549150#post1549150
User reported the problem was solved in #318
did u unlock CID yet?
Hi again. Found the problem. It seems that I was using a somewhat corrupt downloaded rom. The rom was ok, but it must have been destroyed during the downloadprocess.
Now the phone has Gullum Touch IX installed and works like a charm.
Thank for all your help, great forum!

truble in updating to a new rom

Hello guys, i own a stock vodafone TP. I've tried several rom updates however all of them stuck at the beginning where it shows the % bar, it starts and stuck at 0 %.
the latest rom i've tried was "EnergyROM 2.0 40509" i did it through the "EnergyROM Upgrade.exe".
is there anything i'm missing here??
help me please..
if u can extract the *.nbh file (assuming it is inside the EnergyROM Upgrade.exe), then u can try flash using microSD. And u should post in EnergyROM thread.

if i am reading your post correctly, you've never been able to flash a custom rom. If this is the case, have you "hard spl" your phone as yet?
Yes you're right. maybe i mixed up with the whole process of the hard spl even though i had read the guide several times .
First HSPL your phone...
Then Flash the ROM of your choice...
And READ, READ, READ, READ a lot, before...
thanks man!!! i'll try

So i have tried to Hspl my phone using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=448008 guide, but no luck.
first i tried to run the RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3.exe but it said that there was an error, then i used the SSPLManual.exe the phone turned black and an icon appeared on my pc's task bar saying there's a new "something" - (can't remember the actual name) found. And that was it.
what should i do next because i saw at the bootloader that the spl remained the same..

leave the phone plugged in when it says installing "something." even if it takes 5 minutes...let it sit until the computer installs the driver.
then run the spl again. this happens to me every now and then. just give it time to install the driver.
you ment to run the RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3.exe from my computer ??
yes...
it needs to install the driver for flashing the device.. on the pc.. when it done the hardwarewizard tell you that it works.. after that start the hardspl prog
thanks, i'll give it a try later on this day 'cause i'm at work now
that would be the best option
i doubt ur systemcommander let you install anything like drivers and tools to withstand his authority lol
LOL i don't think anybody minds what i do on my computer here at work..
then whats the wait ? hehe
mmm the data cable i guess... don't have it here
lmao
oke oke u got me there
(they're like 3 bucks in most local stores (not that im an addict or anything (a)))
not at all )
by the way, i've tried yesterday to do exactly as you told but no luck.
after i used the SSPLManual and pressed the RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3.exe it said " error - there's a problem operating or something like that"

[Q] I have a problem - phone shows tri-color-screen with ruunbh after flashing

hello together,
i have been reading a lot in this forum but i did not find a solution. This is my problem:
My HTC TD2 shows a pixel error, therefor i should sent it back to the provider. Because i have had ERG-ROM with hard-spl on the phone i have tried flashing first sspl. After that i have tried to flash the original HTC-ROM, but at 9% it fails.
After the recovery the device boots to this 9%-Screen and that´s all. If i am booting to the bootloader, the Bootloader-Modus (Tricolour-Screen) appears, but in the upper right corner stands:"ruunbh"
What can i do next?

well, it has stock SPL now, yes? the custom OS is also erased by now... if not, then do a task 29 to make sure it is erased.
and then you can send the phone back no problem.
PS: I pressed thanks accidentally heh.
actually you should first flash the stock rom and then flash back the stock SPL (that's what i did, at least).
so, my advise would be to install the HARDSPL, then flash the stock rom and finally flash the stock SPL. this worked for me
good luck

afaik, as long as SPL is stock it should be okay... better than if it was booting to a cooked rom.
OP did have the original shipped ROM for the device, it seems. so he can say it got stuck when flashing, which is true.
