I am looking at upgrading the rom on my I-mate Jasjam. I have been reading through the guides (thankyou!) so I downloaded HardSPL onto my PC and extracted the 2 files into a folder. I connected my jasjam via USB to my PC and enabled a connection via activesync 4.1.
Problem is when I run RUUWrapper.exe, I get a windows error saying that it failed to initialise? Am I meant to download those 2 files from my PC to the jasjam and run it from there? ...or did I just get a corrupted download (unusual).
Advice please
Cheers, Gimply.
Update to activesync 4.5 and to .net framework 3.5.
Cheers...
Thankyou. Upgrading to .net 3.5 made all the difference.

I recently purchased a SPV M3100 after reading many great reviews on this device.
I have just unlocked it using the HTC Hermes SIM & CID unlocker v3a using my old Windows XP laptop and it works great (I've tried using my Vista ultimate 64 computer earlier it didn't work).
I am now interested in upgrading my SPV M3100 to latest software available from Orange or the WM6 roms available on this site like Black Dymond, really keen in seeing its potential.
I have read through the Hermes upgrading forums carefully and made sure all is done properly. I have even read through the Mr Vanx step guides in upgrading.
First I decided to use the Orange update from their website.
After making sure the USB cables are connected correctly and allowing the WMDC to sync I proceeded to run the update.
I followed each step and tick the boxes. The phone goes into the tricolour mode or bootloader screen with the following on the screen:
Herm100
IPL-1.01
Herm100
SPL-1.40
On the computer, the window 'verifying your device' is on for few minutes, after this a new window appears indicating: ERROR 260 - update error
This happens again and again, day after day, I have soft reset the device, rebooted the computer, tried both the XP and vista computers, check the usb cable and connections, did everything that is said in the forums, but nothing....
I have even attempted to use the HardSPL program and followed the process to load the black dymond, but same message appears.
Must note that after soft resetting the device the phone returns to its original state, so no harm done. but no upgrade....... Damm...
Help... Any ideas ...... Please....
Many thanks

Update your WMDC to the latest version.
Then try again
Thanks for your prompt reply...
I thought when I originally installed the WMDC was the latest version as I have downloaded it from the Microsoft windows mobile website....
I have downloaded the appropiate Vista 64 version for my vista machine and the appropiate xp version for my xp laptop...
Did you download the latest version...are you sure??
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/devicecenter.mspx
Same problem -> Error 260 if I try to upgade.
Hi
I hve the same issue. Tried on Windows XP and Vista.
Also downlaoded the latest WMDC.
Could that be something with the area code?
I'm in Norway.
For XP should you not be using ActiveSync 4.5?
I re-flahed my M3100. The first attempt it failed, it then recovered itself and the second attemp was successful.
Im sure I have, just downloaded the other day, anyway I have downloaded it again just now, installed it, connected my phone and allowed the sync process to complete. I run the orange update again and still the same message..... Error 260: update error
What SPL version do you have?
To check press and hold BOTH the side ok button and the power button, then insert the stylus into the hole in the bottom of the device.
I have SPL 1.40 Olipro
So i take it you havent read or searched on this error, the orange RUU cannot recognise your device because you have anewer SPL version (HardSPL)...ffs dude had you told us that fact it would have saved you PLENTY of time. You posted you had SPL version 1.40...................you SHOULD have said you have already updated to HArdSPL (1.40.olipro)
follow my Safe WM5 Flashing Guide to get it done.
Sorry if I have wasted your time. I thought that I included the my phone details (SPL and rom etc) on my original message.
I have searched for this error, but I gather I wasn't getting anywhere...
So I thought I would ask for some help and advice....
Anyway thanks for replying with your help. I will check your link straight away.
If I still have problems, I hope it would be ok to ask in this thread.
Thankx Mr Vanx for all your help.
It is now working. I've loaded the WM6 Black IV Shadow rom.
Do you know when there will be a 3G / video dialer for this rom.
Many thanks
Hi MRVANX, i also have the same SPL and my radio is not working. I tried to open the link that you have pasted but the link is broken. Can you please share the info here or on my email address "[email protected]"
hello,
with this guide i have managed to downgrade my prophet to the NVID rom.
the flashed worked well and now i am at the "tap the screen" step from the newly flashed aku2.2 rom.
now i should install the wm6 rom and i downloaded the PDAVIET 4.0.0.0.3.
i started the "upgrade_rom.bat" and i get several error messages, about that the software is not compatible with a 64bit windows.
what can i do now? can't i flash an other rom on my device? please help me.
edit: it seems like the sleep4.exe is not compatible
now i tried it with windows xp via vmware:
it updates to the aku2.2 until the point, where i should stick for a while with 80%. then it displays an error message and i tried it again. same thing.
so i flashed the nvid aku2.2 over vista x64 without a problem, i disconnected the device, open up vmware with windows xp and connected the device here.
i started the upgrade_rom.bat from pdaviet 4.0.0.0.3 and it clears and copys the new extension rom.
the it will write the crossbow OS rom, then the following error appears:
could not update itsutils.dll to the current version.
then the flashing stops. what can i do now?
edit:
now i tried it with active sync 4.2 (not 4.5) but i still can't even flash the nvid rom on my xp. at 80% it gives me the error 302
Hi all.
I tried to update to WM6 on my Dopod 818 Pro with ProphetTouchIXbeta2. It displayed and error and after hard resetting I can only get the splash screen. So I roamed the forum the whole day downloaded a couple of other WM6 packages (I could not get the WM5 files from the WM6 upgrade guide, link is dead). So I downloaded the ROM updates from the HTC websites for the 818 Pro. I can start the 818 Pro into Bootloader, but whatever ROM file I use will tell me Update Error 260 Cannot connect!!
The Bootloader tells me the following: IPL 2.15.0001 / SPL 2.15.0001 and USB connected. Active Sync will not connect.
Sorry, I am a newbie and should have waited for the official upgrade. But I had to try
Thank you in advance for any help!
Cheers,
Markus
Hi,
i had the same trouble some time ago. The false was, that I connect my NEO on an USB Hub, take a direct connection between your PC and your XDA. Also, if it's possible, try another PC. HTH
Put your Prophet in bootloadermode: press Camm button and soft reset at the same time.
In ActiveSync on your PC: DISable connectionsetting "Allow USB connection"
Conect your Prophet to a USBport directly with a cable.
Run a NVID-RUU, perhaps the official VID-RUU doesn't recognize your device anymore.
This should do it.
i can confirm this process
Thanks guys, but the main issue is:
1. I can get into Bootloader
2. BUT ActiveSync does not make a connection with my DEvice in Bootloader and the ROMs I tried cannot connect to my device then.
I tried it on 2 machines (Vista and XP)
Cheers,
Markus

Activesync is not supose to conect to phone in bootloder
just run the wm5
Thanks,
but if I run the WM5 by HTC its only goes to the Verify information screen and after that. it says Error [260]: Connection. The Update utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone.
And in the beginning of the process it displays a couple of steps, like check that your battery is at least 50% charged and other ssteps, of which one is, that I have to make sure that ActiveSyc is connected.
Cheers,

Solved
Ok, the issue was that only this file from HTC would do the update: RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship.exe
Alle the others I downloaded would not work, also not the files I got from here. One was by the way full of Viruses !
Thanks for your help guys! Will try to get to WM6 again now

which one was "full of viruses" and how you checked it ?
Sorry should have mentioned it before:
It was Prophet"s_2.20.7.34_2.20.7114_02.69.21
Virus or unwanted program 'W32/Sality.L [W32/Sality.L]'
All .exes were infected in that package.

I run Vista and have "upgraded" the USB Drivers and followed the guide that should enable you to upgrade your devise in Vista as described elsewhere on this forum.
I put my Qtek in BootLoader Mode, put it in the crade and checked that the writing changes from Serial to USB and execute the HimaUpgradeUT_noID.exe from the [titipan.net]Hima - Helmi AKU3.5 ROM SP2.
After a while I get a "Cant Connect " error.
Now heres the "fun" part. If I just execute the file without going into Bootloader I get as far as the "Upgrading your Device" Screen. After a couple of minuts without anything happening I get the "Error 101".
Am I doing something wrong here or do I need additional Upgrading of Vista to be able to upgrade my device from WM2003 to WM5?
you can search around the forum for upgrading using vista as things with vista seem to work differently then xp
or you can try and get access to an xp pc to upgrade with
So, after first succesefull flash of my tytn I took friends mda vario 2 to do the same. And bricked it!!!
Because of first unsuccesefull flash when I downloaded RUU_inside.nbh file into HardSPL7 directory. So, I connected vario and started RUU_wrapper. BUT in a next few seconds I realised that I am upgrading ROM instead of HARDSPL-ing File inside was from DopodAsia WWE.
Upgrade stared, in a 30minutes it stucked in 24% and I disoconnected PDA. After that it stucked in bootloader! SPL 2.03!
I tried to do HardSPL after-no help. I tried to install ATT Stripped ROM- error on 1%. I downloaded official WM 5.0 GER - no help again.
Few more attempts of flashing HARDSPL, and ROM-s via RUU-wrapper didnt help eather. THEN JUST SOFTRESET: I saw dopod bootsplash screen, and windows started normally!!! I couldnt believe, because I was prepparing to do that complicated procedure of unbricking.
After starting windows I just did HARDSPL and ATT stripped ROM: All OK UNLESS GSM!
Is it possible to fix??
To +Que PPC and boog321: thanks to earlier advices!
OK! I flashed RADIO ROM 1.56.70- IT WORKS!
Guys who are making this software are fenomennal
hahaha!!!!! Nice experince man!!!
Well i think we all has to thank to Olipro! POF! and many old XDA members that makes this posible!!!
Keep it up.... and for the enxt device please... read eveything two or three times! hahaha and please don overwrite files... its better to make new folders!
Keep it up!
haha, thanks Que...
I was in a hurry, so I just connected PDA and start wrapper. I shocked when a I saw wrong .nbh file, but it was too late. But luckely it looks like new ROM was partly OK and I was able to start WM, then flash HardSPL and WM correctly.
Both hermes are working fine.
P.S. I would like someone to put simple guide for people who only want to change their ROM to simple WWE, and have some experience.
1. Download HardSPL7 and unzip to folder on PC
2. Download ATT ROM and unzip to different folder on PC
3. Connect via ActiveSync
4. Start RUU wrapper from HardSPL folder and follow instructions
5. See if you flashed correctely (in a bootloader must be 2.10.01olipro in SPL)
6. If its OK than reset, start WM on PC, connect via ASync and start RUU-wrapper FROM ATT ROM folder, choose autodetect or SPL you have seen in bootloader screen - accept everything....Wait for 10min and enjoy in ENG ROM!
Thanks Oli, Pof and all others of course!
