Am I just stupid? - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development

Okay, didn't want to post, but wasted all day so far...
I started with a WIzard, then an Artemis, then an Elfin, then a Kaiser. I've managed to USPL them all and get 6.12 on them...
Got my Niki this morning, and I'm stumped.
I've run the SSPL, then tried the hard uspls by putting the nbh in the folder instead of the existing nbh - the bar goes to 100% almost instantly, so I'm guessing this is where I'm going wrong?
Tom - I've used your work on other devices before - but TOM_Niki-Project_WM6.1_WWE_16keys_signed_Ship.exe doesn't even see the device. I've also tried Neon_WM6_1_RV1 but that drops out at 1%, so as I said, I'm doing something wrong/stupid trying to get the SPL sorted...

hi,
the hspl flashed so fast for me also
also, v1 installer doesnt see the device, but flashing different roms all work...

First Start SSPL ... you will see the Bootloader with the Letter 1.16jump <- SSPL
now you flash USPL or HardSPL!
after that, go in bootloader again to check, is the spl flashed or not! if you see only 1.16.0000 it means ... it havent work! if you see 1.16hard or 1.15mfg all is right!
do you have a HTC Niki or a HTC Neon? if you want to flash a Niki SPL on a Neon ... this doesnt work!

OK.. I'm now at the stage where the bootloader is 1.16hard... so if I try to flash the neon it gives me invalid device, and the V1 installer doesn't work, so I guess I need to hunt for another ROM? Recommendations?

did you try extracting the rom .exe and running the customruu

Sorted now, thanks for all your assistance...
Got Mary 0.33 running no problems.
Now all I have to do is get the thing recognised in Vista! MDC installed, but doesn't see it. Device drivers installed ok... any clues?

Tried three dirrerent ones already. Damned Vista... XP is a doddle...

its a funny thing, i use 3 vista machines daily and have never had a problem but some others just cant get it to connect

Sorted too... connected up and waited a while, then deleted HTC drivers and mobile device from device manager... unplugged, rebooted, reconnected and waited to reinstall drivers (all in non-enhanced usb mode)
Now all I need to do is get a "reverse bluetooth PAN" so I can use my home broadband connection around the house (I get no mobile signal)

Extracted radio ROM v1.20.31.10 from new jasjam ROM

I extracted the radio version 1.20.31.10 from the imate jasjam 1.31.305.2 rom using Asukal's method.
You can find the radio upgrade only and upgrading instructions on the Hermes Extracted Radio ROMs wiki page.
Remember:
- screen will show "Upgrade Radio Stack Please wait........."
- after finishing flashing radio you will see an "Upgrade Error", but the radio ROM will be flashed anyway
- no need to hard reset after upgrading the radio, only soft reset with stylus when upgrade ends.
- upgrade at your own risk, i take no responsiblity for anything that happens to you, your Hermes, your marriage, etc.
This sucks...I followed the directions to the letter and now I'm stuck on the windows mobile screen.
It seems that when it soft-rest, right above the D1.18 (on the bottom center on the screen) NO GSM appears for a few seconds then disappears.
i have exactly the same problem, it just sits at the windows mobile screen.
i am going to do a hard reset to see if that helps
too bad :/ I was just about to upgrade my radio rom with that.. thx for the notice.
Hard-rest doesn't help. I think the issue is NO GSM...the phone doesn't know what to do. And, not being able to activesync, I can't do anything else.
Had the same problem.
Put the device in Boottloader mode (left OK & Power & reset), and loaded Radio 1.16.
Workes !
Probably something went wrong during extracting 1.20 Radio.
oops... sorry guys, i will remove the upgrade inmediately... it worked on my hermes, will try to flash an older rom an try it again! Those who are stuck on windows mobile screen do what torklemm says: flash radio 1.16
That's what I'm trying to do now, I just hope it works.
Thanks.
EDIT: Can't seem to get it to see the phone via activesync. Unable to flash anything at this point.
I am going to give that a try now, will update with the results

You do not need activesync, disable activesync usb connections, put the device in bootloader mode and start the flash utility (ma_upgrade_noid) from 1.16 radio upgrade.

Tried that pof, all is get is "checking the info on your device and don't disconnect, etc" and nothing more. A few minutes later it shows the screen detailing the PPC radio and ROM versions and the radio version that I'm trying to install, but everything is blank. I say yes anyway and it just sits on the "checking the info on your device and don't disconnect, etc" screen forever.
That's why I thought something wasn't right w/o activesync. I'll try again.
EDIT, again: I'm now trying the Cingular 1.13 radio...that seems to be installing. Pray for me guys
EDIT 2: Yeah, I get the same error as you shark1
I get an error stating this utility is not design for this device please get the correct update utility
i have the same problem On boot i see "NO GSM". Now my tytn doesn't boot and also when i try to reload 1.16 radio it stucks... I'll try with 1.13...
1.13 don't go it say it's not designed for my device... o__O
now i'll try 1.11 same problem...
I'm uploading a "hopefully" fixed version on ftp (again, it worked on my hermes from 1.16 to 1.20), do not download it yet until I finish uploading... (17% now) i will edit this post and let you know when it is finished.
EDIT: Upload finished!
POF: OK i will wait, hopefully that will work, at present I will try 1.11 as others are trying 1.13
I get the same update error with 1.11
I have try to find my old phone, so I can make calls
Ok, now I'm totally confused. In bootloader, I don't see USB on the bottom anylonger. if I unplug my USB cable, I see serial...but I can't seem to do anything to get USB recognized again.
Why did I do this???
EDIT: Rebooted everything!
Hi all,
got the same problem. Phone in bootloader and can't go back to 1.16 or lower..... hope the new 1.20 will work

Connection error when trying to update ROM

Ok, I've been trying to update my 8525 for hours...here is my problem. First, I tried to HardSPL-v7 but I kept getting an "Error [240] File open". I think this is preventing me from doing any ROM update. When I try to run the Cingular ROM update activesync shuts down and I get a connection error, I think it is "error [260]". I have wiped or cleaned out my 8525 so that I am back to day one. I have tried both ROM updates on 2 separate computers and I get same error messages on both computers. I have searched the Wiki's but have found nothing, so please help. As you can tell, I am a virgin to ROM updates so please go gently.
I should add, my present ver. ROM AKU 2.3 (1.34.502.7018.01H) SPL 1.06 IPL 1.01. Radio is 1.16.
have you taken a look at my Safe WM5 Upgrade Guide??
If you follow this guide EXACTLY, you should be fine.

I have, I have even tried the mtty "fix" but I had problems with that as well. I get a modem connection screen but there is nothing about a USB connection.
Bit more info would be nice, which ROM are downloading, and where from??
Also what procedure are you doing to update?? EXACT info please.

Ok, I just tried it 2 more times, Hard-SPL. It flashes to the 8525 and goes into bootloader and shows the following "HERM100 IPL-SSPL by Des HERM100 SPL-1.09.ds" at this point activesync 4.5 shuts down the 8525 is stuck in bootloader (it never reboots) and after a few minutes I get "Error [260] Upated Error". Hard SPL shuts down and the 8525 is stuck in bootloader mode. At this point I have been disconnecting the USB cable and doing a soft reset, once the phone is on, I go into bootloader and the old info shows up SPL 1.06 and IPL 1.01.
Let me have a think, firstly do you have the latest versions of the .net framework installed?
I was able to finally run HardSPLv7, I had to do it on another computer. Now, I would like to update to RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe. I assume I should use the same computer that I used to successfully run HardSPL. Do I need to rebuild the rom file with RUUWrapper.exe (CustomRUU by olipro) & Dutty's Good NBH Tool, before running the RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_2.15.502.3_6275_1.40.30.00_108_Ship.exe update?

Yes if you carry on the guide past flashing hardspl you will get the radio updated aswell.
Can i ask, what is different on the computer you used???

Off hand, the major difference would be Intel (worked) vs. AMD (failed) but I doubt that is the problem, you would be flooded with questions due to so many computers that have AMD chips. The USB cable was the same as well. I'll have to think about that...
Definatly check your "failed" computer is up to date with .net and everything else, most likely a software problem.
I have this problem as well..
AT&T 8525 windows moble 6 trying to install the hardspl v7.
v3.5 and 3.0 .net framework.
the RUUwrapper program gets to the 'verifiying info' screen then give me an erroe 240 message. 'the update utility can not open the requested file.'
any help would be great. Looking to add the touch it interface.
thanks,
Mike
Read the post Hard SPL at the top of this forum and go to page 116 ( I believe its post #1160) and use the sd card method. You don't need to use the pc at all. I generally flasah ALL os's using the sd card method as it seems to be safer then using the usb method. No "sync errors" to deal with.
Cheers...
I have the exact same problem..
When it goes to tri-color screen, the USB connection goes off and windows will pop up the search for driver dialogue box.. then afterward another dialogue box will appear saying Error [260].
I tried restarting my pc and device (even removing the battery) but still failure
Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

I loaded it thru the sd card just as the post above suggested. It loaded the hardspl just fine. My PPC seems to run faster as well.
Thanks for the help! it is much appreciated.

One thing that i have learned from flashing my 8525 is to remove any USB device except the 8525. This has worked for me.

But my mouse is on USB. I might try on different computer and post back the results.
UPDATE
I tried using my friend's laptop and it installed without a problem. I think the issue is with the .NET framework. I installed the latest one before flashing and it worked fine. Hmmm.. Im not sure about this tho.
Hello.... Try the sd card method. You don't need the computer...
Sorry if I sound condescending, but, I seem to find a lot of people saying that they have sync problems. Solution, Take the pc out of the equation (except to load files onto sd card). It is SOOO much safer then using the pc, no "sync" problems, no chance of usb being disconnected, reset button being hit or , worst case scenario, power failure...
You have to either have little or no battery power or MANUALLY hit the reset button with the stylus to stop the flash...
And thats my 2 cents....
Refer to post #13 to find out how to use sd card method to flash hard spl...
Cheers...
sd card method???
how?

Failed after Hard-SPL

Hi All
Been dying to upgrade my Advantage 7501 and try out some of the new ROMS and the new radio on here. Went to the sticky and spent a day browsing the forums to see what I could pick up, even went to how not to brick your device thread. However I am still having issues
First thing I did was remove the SIM and SD cards, I had just reset the device yesterday so I did not reset again. I got a hold of the AthenaWrapper program and it worked as advertised. Getting into bootloader I have:
Athe100
IPL-v2.02
Athe100
SPL-v1.20.Olipro
However, this is where I run into issues. A soft reset does nothing but give me a black screen. I can get into the hard reset screen okay but when I cancel out I get back to the black screen.
Device also does not sync up with Activesync or WMDC?
Not sure what to try next or how to get back on track
Have tried on both Vista and XP.
Anyone have any suggestions
JP
Try to flash a ROM now, starting in bootloader mode. Hold the volume slider to down and then press into the reset hole.
Chooose one (SPL 1.2) from the sticky topic in the athena WM6 section
Progress
Thanks for the reply
Went back and remembered I had to flash the radio first. So I got the 1.57 update and that went as planned. One bullet dodged. Then I went ahead and grabbed some of the ROMs from the located you mentioned and that went thru as well. So it looks like I am back in business. Appreciate it.
PS I see references to SPL 1.2 and 3.5. I also read somewhere that the AP4 upgrader containts 3.5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2825883). Is this just a new version of the same thing?

Just an FYI. I got things to work but not after a few more moments.... I initially tried to update to MichyPrimas 6.1 ROM and it got to 93% complete before bombing with a comm error. That was bad! Went thru the recovery wizard but it basically toasted my model id. Nothing would work. Found a copy of mtty and that did the trick. Just so other know, you need a mac address to run in the mac1.exe program. Some people report having this on the inside of their battery cover. No luck here. I did find it at the router from a connection before I started flashing. A spot of luck there. All went well and I got my model ID back and was able to resume normallly. I flashed the Black Touch PK3 ROM with WM6 for now till I have a bit more time to go to 6.1.
Anyone else have issues with MichyPrima's 6.1 ROM like I did. Looks cool and I want to try it but not if it bombs out on me and I have to mtty my way back all the time.

please people, READ!!!! someone above your post just told you to flash 1.2 rom, in BIG RED LETTERS.
the AP4 is what upgrades you to SPL 3.5, then you won't have a problem with 3.5 roms
(btw good thing this reminds me to release a separate 3.5 SPL upgrader)

please read my really detailed instructions a bit more carefully. I could bet you skipped the part about trying to copy all the files and mtty to C:\ or the step saying click OK for the small popup in mtty. or the warning that you need to type full filename includign the .bin file extension.
also i hope you use the version of mtty i posted
if that's not it, you can also try a different PC

PLEASE HELP! My Athena is dead after Olipro Unlocker

Help please!
I have an T-Mobile Ameo (also known Athena X7500) and i tried the Olipro Unlocker, but the installation didnt finish, at 59% stopped. After that i turn off the device, then turn on, but my device still have a 4 colour screen,red, green, blue and white, it doesnt boot the Windows Mobile, just have the installation screen...
please help
Use olipro's tool again and then flash your final ROM
i tried it many times, but since than my Athena X7500 was dead, the Olipros unlocker doesnt work. The program said: "The Update Utility cannot connect your PDA phone"
In bootloader (coloured screen), does it say anything? if so what? when you try to flash a rom or use unlocker do you get a code? is your memory card out of the slot?
I took a photo my bootloader (coloured) screen:
http://kepfeltoltes.pirateclub.hu/pics/20090106317.jpg My device doesnt say anything.
When i used the unlocker, i didnt got any code. And my memory card was in the slot.
I also took a photo what the Olipro's said now, if i try to continous the flashing:
http://kepfeltoltes.pirateclub.hu/pics/20090106319.jpg
Have you tried flashing your carrier's original Rom?
i will try it, but i dont know where can i find my original rom...
and my second biggest trouble: in this mode, i cant charge my batteries. If i dont find an solution this problem soon, i think, my device will be a BIG trouble. Grrr, i hate olipros program...
Thanks a lot, my athena is live again, i flash my original rom!!!
But the Olipros Unlockert isnt working, the installation go to 100%, the program said that the flashing is succesfull, but my SPL is still 1.1, and i cant flash any roms..
I can understand why. Any ideas?
The other thread was closed, you shouldn't double post.
Read the links I mentioned.
as in olis first post
"Please note: you must have .net Framework 2.0 installed with the services packs, if you don't it then it probably won't run till you download it.
SPECIAL INFO ABOUT STEP 2: When you run this step, first your device will be flashed; this is NOT the end of Step 2, you must then configure your device and set it up fully so you can access the menus etc (there will be a prompt to ask you to do this after the flash anyway). then you will be able to continue. please make sure to read ALL dialogs fully"
leave out the sim and sd card.
Some others have reported better luck with the shipped WM6 rom if they had trouble unlocking.
I installed the NET Framework 2.0 SP2 in my device and i put out my sim and sd card. And when i flashing the Olipros Unlocker, it went to 100%, but my SPL is still 1.1
I dont understand.

the net framework should be on your computer.
what OS is on your computer ?
May be better if you use winXP
did you install an oficial wm6 rom ?
Read the later pages in the unlocker thread
My computer also have the NET Framework 2.0 SP2. And when the flashing didn't work, i also installed the NET Framework 3.5 SP1, but, when i flashing a ROM in my decive, it also went to 100%, but the SPL is still 1.1.
I use a 32-bit Windows XP in my computer.
My T-Mobile Ameo (Athena) is a second hand device, it was used when i bought. But the first user said me, that the original OS was the Windows Mobile 5 in my Athena, but he update from Windows Mobile 5 to Windows Mobile 6.0. He said that he update with an official T-Mobile way.
Ok all good so far
Did you use the unlocker from this thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=315831
The other thought i had was that you should try a different computer and usb cable
oh, thank you so mutch, i tried an another computer, and it flashed the SPL from 1.1 to 1.2!

HardSPL - Just can´t do it in G4... :(

Hi to everyone,
I've read dozens of pages on how to do a HardSPL in Prophet G4, but i simply can't have success...
I've tried 4 or 5 methods that I found here, but none of them had been suceded...
I get a white screen, i get the 3 color screen, the connection fails...
I din't know what to do more... Can somebody help me, pleeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee....
I use Win XP Pro, and my Prophet gives me this info when I do Soft Reset:
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.20.0001
GSM 02.47.21
OS 2.20.734
I was already able to change ROM once, because I had it in portuguese and now is in english, and with other logos.
But what I would like was to install WM6.1 or 6.5...
The HardSPL *.bat file gives me this information, now:
"One or more CON code pages invalid for givem keyboard code"
"cerun:failed to execute program"
Can somebody give me some idea?
Thank you so much in advance!
I was in the same situation as you. You have to find the rom:
RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe
Search in the forum for the rom. After extracting the rom, run the file: ROMUpdateUtility_No_VenderID.exe.
It will survive your device. then you can install a wm6x rom from this site.
Don't forget to do hard spl your device next time.
Edit: It seems the rom is here:
http ://xvx45-spf.4shared.com/account/file/12240109/ca99469a/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.html
Also there is a "readme.doc" in the rom dir. Read the section 8. It is written for you.

Hi keenblade,
I was able to do that. My PPC went with the 3 color screen, and then I user a rom with No vendor. I disabled USB connection in ActiveSync, and then I could do that. I brought my PPC back.
My problem is just the HardSPL... I just can't do it... I've tried so many tomes and with so many files that I think i need some straight orientation, or i don't know what was wrong...
In this moment i have the PPC with WM5, but what i really would like to do is make a HardSPL to install WM6...
Did you try "Prophet Upgrade" tool? Before running the tool, you have to connect with activesync.

Yes, i've used Prophet Tools already...
I guess i'm doing something wrong... I've tried again now, and went again with the 3 color screen. I'm injecting a NoVendor Rom again.
When doing HardSPL, when the screen turns white, i must disconnect and reconnect device and just wait that software finishes, right? There is a moment that nothing happensm but then ActiveSync recognizes again the PPC.
I'm i right? I must do that again. It must be somtging that i'm doing wrong...

When the screen turns white, I do nothing. Just wait. I don't disconnect and reconnect device. Maybe this is the problem. Do not touch the device when screen turns white. It will continue eventually. Also use the latest Prophet Upgrade tool v2.6.
Let's see what will happen.

I got it! I've followed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349900&page=9
And now I have a brand new WM 6.5 in my old Prophet!!!!!
Thank you very much!
Nice to see you get your prophet back to life. I still use wm6.1. Because it is said wpa2 does not work with wm6.5. I haven't try wpa2, yet.
Best wishes.

That's a good question... as i live in a non populated wifi area, i use just WPA, and it's fine. I must try WPA2, to check that.
and btw, 6.5 rom from babak00000 is just great. Love it.
