sx56 problem
I downloaded the XDA-developers-SER-v12 for my siemens sx56...
the problem is that when i downloaded it and have it activated... the phone show upgrading...will take 5 minutes to do so and do not unplug... the thing is...it has been over 5 minutes and it still shows in my screen and i couldn't get to take it off...
now the thing is as soon as it unzips it says that i have to have my phone on active sync... i cannot do so since the phone is stucked... now when i try to cancel it it says "cannot open the ROM image file" please download and try again" so that's how it goes repetitively... what is the best way that i can do with this? if it ain't going to work.. i would rather just use it as an organizer like it used to...
is there anything i can do with this?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_FlashSD
and if you want to unlock use the exe tool rather then a very very very old rom
like
XDA-developers-SER-v12
The code will change depending on the model of the mobile phone. Every step has to be carefully followed while unlocking the phone.
SX56 problems
Hi, I recently got a brand new Siemens SX56 from ebay. It was never upgraded to firmware. I took the task of upgrading this but something happened that killed the process. Now the device is stuck at this mode even after doing a reset.
My steps were, I updated Active Sync to 3.7.1 (the latest version) The device is happily communicating with my pc.
Then started the upgrade and the screen says "upgrading will take 5 minutes, do not remove device or uplug power...during upgrade process..etc"
The program says it encountered an error during the upgrade and basically stopped the process. I knew this was bad. The instructions told me to uplug the device from the usb cable, do a normal reset, plug usb cable back in, and then retry the upgrade utility.
It won't because no active sync can't see my device because the screen is stuck on that "upgrading takes 5 minutes screen"
Is this device basically dead? Please help. This was a clear upgrade process and clearly the process got an error.
Hello gybanez,
I had the same problem and was able resolve the problem.
You have two options:
1. you can send it to me and I will do it for free.
or
2. buy these:
a. MMC card (at least 64 mb)
b. buy a Card Reader/writer that supports MMC
c. go to www.xda-developers.com and download "XDA-developers-SER-v12"
d. extract the ROM from XDA-Developers-ser-v12 (.nbf file).
e. also download XDA-TOOLS (used to copy the .nbf file extracted to
your new MMC card on the Card reader/writer.
f. now insert the MMC card into your sx56 press reset and power button
at the same time and it should take you to a screen which asks you
to press "action button" to download and once done do a cold reset.
This should do the trick and afterwards if you want to upgrade and or
customize it go to http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ great site.
PS: If anyone wants to correct/add to this please feel free.
Regards, JOHNNY.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This was the same problem I had... so finally i got it all and had it transferred in the MMC card...
the thing...as soon as I run it...it get stuck on "SIR TEST : Supporting Running"
and another is that I am using Vista and downloaded the latest mobile sync... but it responds that it doesn't identify the HTC mobile... really sad... can someone contact me via YM: [email protected]
need help

Here's something weird...
I have an early model PH10A XDA II...
was on ROM 0.81.00 USA
Radio: 1.05.09
Protocol: 1337.10b
Date 8-11-03
I'm trying to upgrade it to the latest i-mate ROM.
I have gotten to the point where it says "The current software is now being erased....the update should take 30 minutes." but the first time...it gave me an error and it asked me to reboot the device and try again...since then...
....it stays there for hours with no update, no errors, or feedback of any kind. All I get on the RUULog.log is "17:24:10 Connection with USB"..then nothing happens...
I have tried re-boots, hard boots, taking the battery out and waiting a few mins, making sure the battery is charged, I'm on XP and the latest Activesync 3.7.1, also I kill the wces...exe. app and still sits there..
I have tried the O2 version, the UK-02-version, himalayaupgradeut_197.exe...all to no avail...
Any other things I should attempt? I'm bootloader 0.23....
I'm still scouring the groups to see if anyone had this problem..
thanks!
re:Weird problem with early model HTC XDA II with 0.23 btldr
Thanks to these posts I can safely say I found a partial solution that works. From other similar posting, it seems the early bootloader 0.23 was a pre-release demo and not for public consumption...so this USB upgrade process does not work for this version.
What worked for me using this bootloader version was a combination of the posting here http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=93&PN=1 - using their choice #3.
1. Download ROM 1[1].72 SD.rar (ROM 1.72)
2. Extract ROM 1[1].72 SD.rar with WinRAR, you will find two files; ntrw.exe and ROM.nb1
3. Put them in any folder; say c:\ROM\
4. Go to DOS command and the folder contains the files
5. Type C:\ROM>ntrw write ROM.nb1 E: (Assume your card reader drive is E as shown in the below figure. Wait until finish writing the rom.
6. Put SD card into your XDAII, go to bootloader mode (Power + Reset + Directional Pad) and follow instruction on your device screen.
However, for this bootloader it definitely wanted a RAW formatted SD card, not a card formatted by XP/2000 card readers. I also tried other devices format Treo 600, etc...but what did the trick was to do a save to SD command using the USB/Serial program ROMUPDATE.exe located somewhere on this board.
This allowed the card to work with the bootloader...
Once this was done...I was able to insert the card on the card reader (and get an error - ingnore since it was raw format)...and type step #5.
Once this was done I was able to boot the device again.
To note..most of the solutions posted here work for public release bootloaders above 1.0...but this was an early release bootloader...and this is how you get this one to work. NOT using USB.
Now the next task is ...how do I upgrade the bootloader?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
for hard reset u need not to press the navigation key just press power and reset.
and if this does not help try reinstalling the rom in boot loder mode(serial 1.06).
I tried to do a ROM Upgrade but something went wrong and now the screen on my XDA II just shows the words Serial and v1.06. When I did a hard reset the screen still shows the same thing. When I connect the device using the cradle the word Serial changed to USB, but it didn't seem to connect to the PC. The Activesync was not activated also. When I tried to run the ROM Upgrade again, it shows ERROR 100: MODEL ID ERROR. I tried to run HimaUpgradeUT_noID.exe, it shows Error 103: ROM IMAGE FILE NOT FOUND. Can anyone please help me get my device working again? Thank you in advance.
Wrong ID
a few days ago i had the same problem with my HTC Blue Angel (also known as
qtek 9090)
temporaly youre PDA shows the bootloaderscreen. On top it shows youre kind of connection, on the bottom you can find the revision of this piece of software.
try this tool to reanimate youre pda.

extract this file into the dir, where you have copied the original ROM-Image from youre developer, put youre PDA into cradle and check, if the status of this connection is changed in USB. Everything o.k? Right now: doubleklick on MAUpgradeUT_NoID and drink a coffee. it takes about 10 Minutes and after this youre pda runs as well. dont forget to copy youre original ROM-Image with the original Installer after finishing this procedure to avoid any errors.

Dead XDA II
Hi Guys, I'm new to all this because my XDA has never failed me, until now. I too tried to upgrade the ROM, realising too late that the upgrade from a UK site was not meast for the Asian zone.
Anyway, I tried downloading the following link:
http://rapidshare.com/files/36498840...adeUt_noID.rar runterladen.
When I tried to lanch the file it tells me that RUU.dll is missing.
Is there a link that works or is there a fix for this? As I said, I'm new to this therefore need step by step instruction.
Hope someone can assist, I'm lost without my XDA II.
Thank you
Ben

Hi Usman,
What OS of windows PC do you use? it can't work with windows vista. Try to downloads new version of active sync then try it again. The upgrade is specify, can't work in any kind of devices
Hi,
I have a Tilt, the ROM version is: 1.57.502.2, Radio version: 1.27.12.11. I am trying to downgrade the phone to WM5 or to one of the cooked roms published on this site. I have spent hours reading the WIKI section and many posts. I have tried to install the HARD-SPL however in the begining I had the white screen problem. After using the JUMPSPL, I think that I have managed to install the Hard-SPL (The version that the bootloader shows is: SPL-1.0.Olipof.
I have also unlocked the phone and the CID using tools available on this website. I have no way to check if the unlock works since I do not have another SIM with me right now.
The problem that I am having is that every time I try to install a ROM, I start the upgrade wizard, and get to the point where the phone shows a promt that asks me if I want to approve the execution of a file. I confirm it and then the phone reboots, shows the AT&T logo right away and reloads everything. I do not see the bootloader and after around 60 seconds I get the 260 error on my computer telling me that there is an update error and that the update utility could not access my PDA phone.
I have also tried to get into the bootloader manually, then connect the USB while ActiveSync is open and load an ATT rom (It's an older one with WM5 provided by Cingular) however I get the same results...
Can anyone give me some guidance? Any advice will be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Joe
P.S. The computer's OS is windows XP, I have turned of the Anti-Virus Scanner (AVG)
FYI this section is for the Hermes/8525, you need to check out the Kaiser/8925/tilt section of this site.
Sorry
Sorry, my mistake. I can't delete my first message however I will change the subject so the moderator will erase it.
Thanks,
Joe
Alright so I am so frustrated with this...and I am sure there is a simple solution for it. The screen on my old 8525 got messed up and since it was under waranty they sent me a replacement...the screen is ok on the replacement, but the phone isn't working (shows exclamation point next to "wine glass" rather than signal strength bars).... after hours and several phone calls to tech support, High End Devices waranty dept and who knows where else, it was determined that the current ROM version is incompatible with the AT&T network, I have to upgrade. So the version of the ROM on the replacement is 2.15.502.3 which makes wonder why in the world would AT&T send me a phone that would not work on their network? (I'm really trying not to vent here...) Anyways so I go to the HTC website as directed by the Tech. Support person download the stuff and after another hour on the phone with HTC and every possible sollution that they know is tried still can't install. I am running a Vista 64 machine and after getting around all the Vista quirks I am finally able to get to the Bootloader screen (button combination is: Side button [Ok] + [Power] Then push [Reset]...if done correctly your phone goes to the 4 bar boot loader screen, if not your phone soft resets and you have to try it again...) anyways in the bootloader screen it goes to the installation bar on both phone and PC and goes to 1%, then durring that one percent I get the horrible "ERROR 294 : INVALID VENDOR ID" on the PC and the Phone resets.....No matter how we have tried it it is always the same thing...redownloaded the file 3 times, restarted the phone about a gazillion times and the PC about 2 or 3 times. What can I do? I would love to have Ms Windows Mobile 6, but all I really want is a working phone....can anyone please help?
Some more info for those of you that can help:
On "Device Information" screen here is what I have:
ROM version: 2.15.502.3
ROM Date: 04/09/07
Radio version: {blank}
Protocol version: {blank}
On Bootloader screen:
In the top (red) section:
(in white)
HERM100
IPL-1.03
(in yellow)
HERM100
SPL-1.11
and then at the bottom (white) section:
(in black)
USB
(it says Serial when I unplug the USB cable)
I am trying to install the ROM titled:
RUU_Hermes_CINGULAR_WWE_3.62.502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe
downloaded from:
http://216.139.227.230/download/Sof...502.3_6275_1.54.07.00_108_UOOS_SVN05_Ship.exe
found by going to http://www.htc.com, Support, AT&T 8525, Software Download.
Thank you for any help you can give.
u cant be serious......you got an invalid model ID from an 8525 while trying to install an update from at&t itself.
well the solution would simply be to install hardspl (see the sticky) and then install the update. although there are many other easier and faster solutions i think this is the *safest* way. but then the fact that your radio version shows nothing makes me wonder......maybe a corrupted radio or something, which may or may not be related to the invalid model ID error.......anywho, search the forums for error 294 its probably been discussed many times
First of all thanks for your help. So I tried installing the 2.10 - Hard-SPL-V7 and it wont finish the install. I connect the device follow through the installation and when I get to the point where I push Yes on the 8525 the screen goes to the red/green/blue/white bars screen shows
HERM100
IPL-SSPL by Des
HERM100
SPL-1.09.ds
then the Computer shows ERROR [260]: UPDATE ERROR and the installation stops....
error 260 is an open port error, reboot your computer, and try again, if it doesnt work, try a different usb port, also disable watever firewalls or antivirus software you have
Okay so I diabled both the firewall (Windows Firewall) and the antivirus (AVG) and restarted the computer...tried 3 different USB ports...still the same problem....You don't think it could have anything to do with Windows Vista 64 and Windows Mobile Device Center. BEcause as soon as I go into the new Bootloader screen, the WMDC shows that the 8525 is diconnected now...even though it's not. I saw a post on here about installing drivers to get Active Sync on a Vista machine, but the drivers it provides are unsigned and Vista won't let me load them....so what's the next step? And again thank you so much for your help.
Is there any use in putting more effort into this or should I just have AT&T send me a new one?
whether there's any use left is ur decision, dont ask me to help you make your decision.
i know you can install unsigned drivers on vista, i dont know how, use the search. i have also heard that updating wmdc to the latest version helps too.
or you can either try and install hardspl using the microsd card, again use the search.
Hello Professionals (0:
Sorry for my bad English, German was better (o;
My HTC S740 / Rose starts suddenly no more.
It starts always new after the new "smart mobility" screen
= Loop
Do you have a solution without having to send to HTC?
BTW: When I try to flash I get the error message:
"invalid vendor id"
although it is actually an original HTC device is.
Thank you for your help (o:
What ROM are you trying to flash? The ROM is probably for some other branded S740.
To flash this ROM anyway you can use QMAT to generate goldcard and flash it (extracted ROSEIMG.nbh) from card...
interessting! can you post some link or how-to ?! i realy want to try it
Hello.
I have the same problem.
I have S740 with wrong downloading soft.
When I try to load new ROM into my S740 after 1% downloading the Smartphone ROM Upadate Utlility 3.27.4.3 show ERROR [294]: INVALID VENDER ID.
I don't know what will be before.
How can I solve this problem?
I will be very very grateful.
Rgds.
Read the stickies. You need HardSPL.
Could you tell me step by step what I should do?
1. Activesync doesn't see phone.
2. When I turn on the phone (using data cable) is only black screen SMART MOBILITY and restart and restart ect ect.
3. I downloaded RUU_Rose_Orange_UK_1.17.61.2_Radio_sign_12.29.30.09_0.29.30.22_Ship and I copied RUU_signed.nbh into the microSD card.
4. I changed the name from RUU_signed.nbh to RoseIMG.nbh
5. I turned on the phone one more time, and put button VOL DOWN
6. Then we can see info LOADING, next CHECKING and next info 0028002 NOT ALLOWED
7. Then I can see screen red, green, blue and below is white part with info: USB
8. On this screen is also:
ROSE100
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-Rose (LED) v10
MicroP-Rose (KEY) v5
PCBID 0x80
RID 0x0
9. Activesync still doesn't see phone.
10. When I try to use ROMUpadateUtility after 1% I see ERROR [294]: INVALID VENDER ID.
11. I used older and new versions of ROMUpdateUtility and always is the same problem.
So could you tell me step by step what can I do?
Thank you for help!!!
Now I know more.
I tried to connect via Activesync and download new HardSPL, but there was no connection between S740 and Activesync. I used 2 comps, 2 different data cables and without any progress.
Seems that phone is without ROM now.
Connecting without microSD card is good. I turn on the phone, push VOL DOWN and I see boot menu with the SERIAL info. When I put data cable I can see USB.
So all seems to be correct.
But how to download HardSPL without Activesync?
I have no connection between phone and Acitesync so I can not download HardSPL. I use Rose-S740-HardSPL-Kit-by-jocky2001, hope that it is correct SPL.
