Looping after flashing - please help - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading

Windows Mobile 6.1
- then device try to configure itself, showing something like disclaimer screen
of Michyprima (I press Continue)
- It asked to choose font: Tahoma or Segoe UI (Vista)?
i just leave it that way (Tahoma) & press Done
- a window appear with text: the changes will be visible only at next startup.
i clicked ok (as this is the only way to continue)
- It says customization will be in 3 secs. It resets by itself.
- the boot process is start all over again from the beginning as continuous looping
after long search of what caused it, i found that i have flashed wrong version of Michyprima's ROM SPL, other words: i used the rom for SPL v3.5 instead of SPL v1.2 version.
Now I do not know how to correct the unit.
Yes I searched and found the same problem but no solution simple enough for me to understand.
Can anyone please help with this, thank you.

i had the same problem before, looping after flashing. but i forgot how i fixed it. tootallk2000 was helping me through the procedure then. maybe he can remember how we fixed it.

Try this step:
1) boot into bootloader mode (push camera and volume all the way down and press reset)
2) Flash any SPL 1.2 rom or stock rom using bootloader mode (untick allow USB connection if activesync unable to detect)
3) done , make sure you only flash SPL 1.2 rom after the unit has been revived
ps : you may also try using SDcard (not SDHC) flashing if unable to connect using activesync. Just rename RUU_signed.nbh to atheimg.nbh and copy into sd card (sdcard must be formatted as fat32). Put sdcard into device and boot into bootloader mode. It will automatically start the process.
pps : if you see there's no ATHE100 on the bootloader screen, then your modelid is corrupted, need to fix it first before you can do any reflash ... plz read post #33 here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387454&highlight=mtty&page=4

same prob?

atom exec stay at o2 logo

Hi to all,
please help me,
When i wana install the last atom exec rom,two days ago,everythings is ok,but after hard reset,my device stayed at O2 logo and I couldn't hard reset my device and install rom too,because didn't sync with my laptop,have you any idea for this problem?
take off the battery and try again
I take off the battry many time,but this problem exist yet.
can you enter in bootloader mode (camera + reset) ?
yes,but i see a black screen that written on it:sd detected and
"starting download ...
sdDownload:couldn't find file;diskimg.nb0;.
sdDownload:couldn't find file;eboot.nb0,.
sdDownload:couldn't find file;dm.nb0,.
..."
at the end of screen:
"SD trensfer completed."
what your idea?what things i must to do?
Once entered in bootloader mode (ignore these SDCard messages), plug de USB cable and wait the device to be detected by windows
you'll be able to upgrade a new rom
i have the same problems, i upgrade the phone still stay on o2 logo
any other solution??
thanks
have you follow the upgrade procedure correctly?
just an opinion...
remove sd card...
then enter bootloader
then run upgrade DSUU.... follow on screen instruction
should be ok to upgrade your rom...
1. remove SD Card
2. remove battery
3. hold camera button and reset (stylus) button
4. replace battery while still holding the buttons
This will bring you back to bootloader mode. Just flash the above DSUU.
DUN USE MEMORY CARD TO FLASH AGAIN!!!

what ROM version that you used?
think better for you to downgrade to ORIGINAL WM5 ROM. since ATOM EXEC used the MN2 bootloader you will not able to update you rom via bootloader mode. BUT I will share my experience on my ATOM EXEC when my device in unable to boot condition.
1. you need to downgrade your bootloader to MN1 type (ATOM Standard bootloader), copy the EBOOT.nb to your SD card
2. prees camera+reset --> you will see the bootloader found and update, and device turn off
3. TAKE OUT SD CARD !!
4. take out your battery, press CAMERA+RESET and plug in back your battery, you should come back to bootloader mode again (now you should have MN1 bootloader on your ATOM EXEC)
5. Run Xda-Atom-Exec-ENG-20060721-MOT0822.exe, the ROM will be intalled on bootloader mode BUT will be stack 6% on EXTENDED ROM
6. when 6% (progress bar not move anymore) just take out your USB cable from your ATOM --> on this stage you already upgrade ROM + bootloader(MN2) just the EXT ROM failed to update
7. turn on your device, you will able to enter to WM5 but the job not finish yet.
8. run one more time Xda-Atom-Exec-ENG-20060721-MOT0822.exe on DSUU mode, viola after completed the progress your device will be back on ORIGINAL WM5.
note: please read step by step, if you don't understand than better DON'T DO IT, send to service center will be good choice otherwise your ATOM EXEC can really become paper weight!

What can we do if the bootloader don't start ?
it is possible to modify eboot without bootloader ?
Thanks a lot.

I don't think so, if your device can not be turn on via bootloader mode, then the bootloader corrupted on your device. the key is to secure the bootloader partition. without that one will be useless

Is there any other method to enter bootloader mode ?

Hi all experts,
My device Dopod838Pro is stucked in Windows Mobile boot logo screen while I am attempted to defrag my SD card by using Pocket Mechanic software.When I entered defragment , it asked whether you wnat to defrag in safe mode or not.I choose in safe mode.After that it bring the device to restart.Device has restarted HTC boot screen and Windows Mobile screen only.Stucked in this stage.I tried to enter bootloader mode by pressing OK+PWR and Reset many times but fail.I've tried to upgrade ROM again by USB cable but PC not recognise device.

Niki SuperCID and Security Unlocker

I finally found some time to post this, it's been on my desk since February.
Anyhow, today is the day. Oh yes, running this will SIM unlock your device as well
Niki SuperCID and Security Unlocker v0.1

Note for Vista users
====================
This guide will explain how to change your drivers to the xp:
http://www.modaco.com/content/Windo...UU-on-Vista-It-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide
You will have problems running the unlocker otherwise. Log in as administrator if you run the ROM update tool and unlocker. That also applies to XP users.
Instructions
============
1. Make sure you installed HardSPL 1.15 MFG If you did not install 1.15 yet follow instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355730
To verify if HardSPL is correctly installed: power off and then press power on while keeping camera pressed, this will enter the so called bootloader mode and you see a tri-color screen (Red, Green, Blue). You should see "SPL-1.15.Hard" on the second line in the top left corner. You can exit this mode by means of a "soft reset": press the reset button with the stylus.
2. Make a note of the radio version that is currently installed. You see the version strings in the splash screen which appears soon after power on (e.g. "R 1.58.16.27"). Since we will flash a special radio in step 5 you need to flash back your original radio in the last step. You can download radio roms from XDA devs here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369502
EDIT: if your current radio version is 1.65.28.25 or higher you should first downgrade to a lower ROM version like RUU_Nike_Radio_1.58.21.23_25.65.30.04S_Modded.
3. Connect PC and Niki with a USB cable and keep it connected until the last step.
4. Power on the Niki and let it boot into Windows Mobile. On the PC make sure the activesync icon is green.
5. After you unpacked the download you see directories "step1" and "step2". Go into "step1" and run NikiCustomRUU.exe. This will flash the special patched radio rom. Follow the instructions until it is finished. IMPORTANT: Make sure that the flash correctly finished. The device will restart automatically once the flashing is completed.
6a. Power off and power on in tri-color bootloader mode.
6b. Unplug and replug usb cable and wait 10 seconds
7a. right-click activeync icon and uncheck "Allow USB connections" from Connection Settings
7b. On your PC go into the "step2" directory and run "Niki-supercid.exe".
You should see this:

=== Donations happily accepted, paypal to [email protected]
[] Done, your device should now be superCID and Security Unlocked
[] Your device is unlocked and you can change anything anytime
[] Don't forget to flash your original radio
Press Enter to exit
-------------------
If you see this:
----------------
=== Niki SuperCID and Security Unlocker (c)2008 by jockyw2001
=== Donations happily accepted, paypal to [email protected]
Your CID = HTC__001
[] Failed! Please soft reset and try again
[] To soft reset press and hold camera button and then press reset with stylus
Press Enter to exit
-------------------
then do a soft reset (press and hold the camera button first and then shortly press the reset button with the stylus) and try again.
8. Download the original radio from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349375
to the "step3" directory on your PC and flash it with NikiCustomRUU.exe
9. right-click activeync icon and check "Allow USB connections" from Connection Settings
That's all folks
Enjoy and ... donate to keep R&D going! Thx!

Edit: Niki Security Relocker
Some users with a security unlocked device would like to relock it again e.g. for warranty purposes. Unzip niki-relock.exe from the attached niki-relock.zip into the "step2" directory of the security unlocker (in the same directory there should be niki-supercid.exe). Carry out the same steps as for the security unlocker but in step 7b run niki-relock.exe
Have fun!

How long should this process take and if it should be immeditate where am i going wrong?
Regarding previous post my phone is also locked onto correct network now aswell so phone is pretty unusable with a sim card in
HELPPP PLease

Yes just flashed back to correct radio and i can now use sim card again. but still phone did not successfully unlock

Device will not flash

I have a T-Mobile MDA Vario II and it just seems that flashing is impossible. I am pulling my hair out!
I have searched the forum and cannot see anyone else having had the same problem
I have tried to flash WM6, as provided by T-Mobile and also I have tried to flash Hard-SPL, but get the same problems with both.
First of all, if I try to flash by flashing from the PC, via ActiveSync, it all seems to be fine until it comes to that actual flashing itself. As soon as the flashing process begins, the phone goes to the bootloader and disconnects from ActiveSync, producing an error message in the program on the PC.
I have tried doing it directly on the phone, as described in post 1160 of the Hard-SPL, Or How to Not Brick Your PDA Ever Again And Fix Bad Blocks! thread, but when I reach step 7, where it should go from the tri-color screen to another screen, asking you to press the power button to start, it doesn't happen! The tri-color screen appears, followed, for less than a second, by a screen which says "Loading..." and then it just goes back to the bootloader screen, where it stays until I do a reset.
Anyone got any ideas at all?
CID Unlock the device then try to flash it, make sure battery is fully charged too. Have you tried entering bootloader manually then trying to flash the tmobile rom?
It won't even let me do that!
I have just tried to do this, using pof's free HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlocker but even that won't work.
Pof's zip file contains 3 methods of doing this. I'll list all 3, with a description of where it goes wrong each time. Perhaps that will make the problem clearer
Easy auto-install Instructions:
-------------------------------
1. Unzip unlocker and run AUTO_Unlock_v3a.bat
2. Follow directions on screen
The .bat file starts a program on the PC. It goes OK, until it sends the phone to the boot loader screen. ActiveSync immediately disconnects and an error message comes up on the PC...
ERROR [260]: CONNECTION
The Update Utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone. Please check that your USB cradle/cable is connected properly between the PC and your PDA Phone
Check the following:
1. The PDA Phone is connected to the USB cradle/cable
The USB cradle/cable is connected to the PC
Click 'Exit' to quit
manual instructions:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Transfer SSPL/SSPL-HERM.exe to your phone and run it
2. Tri color screen will appear
3. Disable activesync (file -> connection settings -> uncheck "allow USB connections")
4. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.
As long as the Tri-color screen is showing, the PC does not recognise the PDA Phone as being connected, even if the USB is connected
5. run RUU/RUU_HERM_Unlock_v3a.exe
6. follow the flashing process (Check the "I understand..." and "I completed..." boxes and update!)
Rather unsurprisingly, the same error as above appears
7. Allow your phone to reboot.
8. Transfer HERM_Unlock_v3.exe program to your phone and run it
9. Click the Unlock Button, select unlock option. Select if you want SIM/CID unlock.
10. Click "Unlock!" and wait until process finishes.
11. When done, turn off your phone for 10 seconds and reboot after that.
I actually still went through steps 7 to 11 and it all seemed to work, but although it said the PDA Phone was now SuperCID, it wasn't
update using the SD-Card Method:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Unrar RUU_HERM_Unlock_v3a.exe
2. Unrar RUU_Inside.exe This file doesn't exist in the zip file
3. Empty (erase the contents) of your microSD card from the Windows Mobile file explorer
or format it from your computer using a card reader (in some cases format doesn't work).
4. Rename HermesUnlocker_v3a.nbh to HERMIMG.nbh and copy it to the FAT32 formatted microSD card.
5. Insert microSD card on your phone
6. Transfer SSPL/SSPL-HERM.exe to your phone and run it
7. Confirm flashing on screen by pressing the power button. Nothing to confirm. The phone simply goes straight to the Tri-color screen and stays there until you do a soft reset
Again, I don't know how much help it is, but if I go to the boot loader screen, via the power, OK and soft resent buttons, I see the following information...
HERM300
IPL-1.01
HERM300
SPL-1.04
If I run the SSPL-HERM program on the phone, it takes me to the boot loader screen, but with the following info...
HERM300
HERM-SSPL by des
HERM300
SPL-1.09.ds
Any ideas?
Go to bootloader and tell us what your SPL is... If its 2.10 olipro then you have Hard SPL installed. This process is VERY quick so it may have worked and you just didn't notice the change.
As for using the PC & Activesync, if you have Hard SPl, use the sd card method to load new OS's onto your Phone instead as its safer and easier (same as how you loaded Hard SPL except you don't need to run the SSPL program from your device, just put file on card, rename and reset to bootloader.
Cheers...
That info is in the prevoius post. Before you worry that you are going mad, I edited the message to add that info, so I guess you probably asked, before that info was there

[RUU Error 200]

Hello.
I tried to update with the ROM from SD card, but it failed.
My phone doesn't boot after that - it hangs up showing just splashscreen and some info -
ONBL 1.07.0000
SPL 1.10.0lip
GSM 02.71.90
OS 1.8.0.0
Hard reset didn't help.
I tried to flash ROM through RUU (device still goes into bootloader by pressing camera+reset/power), but it said
ERROR [200]: Invlid Update Utility
Please get newer Update Utility
Is there any way to flash my device? =\
btw, sorry for my english, i know that it's quite bad )
You need to first patch your HSPL and then flash a custom ROM.kindly read the ROM Upgrading Guide properly in the GENE forum.you can also find the link in my signature.

If you are talking about that method -
Step 5: Use the Orefkov Unlocker
------------------------------------
1. Remove the battery, SIM card and SD Card of your phone and press the Power key for 20 seconds to draw out any residual power from the phone.
2. Replace the battery but not the SIM and SD card, and don't start the phone yet. Press and hold the Camera button and then press the Power button or Soft Reset button. Phone will come to boot loader mode (tricolor screen) and SPL 1.10.Olip will be displayed.
3. Connect the USB cable. The text USB will appear on the bottom of the screen.
4. On PC, go to the folder Orefkov in the folder extracted in step 1 and run the Mtty1_42.exe. Press the button "USB" in the window that opened.
5. In the window that opened, type the following command (don't use copy paste please) and press enter:
Code:
set 32 1
You'll see a response from phone.
6. Type the following command BUT DON'T PRESS ENTER YET:
Code:
ls boot.bin
Note : that is small L and small s in that command, dont mistake it with I.
Now, hold down the Camera button on phone, and press the enter key on computer. After a while, the screen will become White. Continue pressing the Camera button for 10 more seconds.
7. Now release the camera button, close the MTTY program and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe in the same folder, not the one outside it. That one is for RAM flashing that we will use later. Check the boxes in each step and click Next Next and then at last Update. Let it finish the process. Your phone will restart.
8. Now on the splash screen you'll see the info with updated SPL version. The version of SPL will be 1.07.Oref.
Congrats! you have successfully patched your SPL.

then it didn't work.
Mtty connects to the phone, it even says that bootlader patched, enters the "White screen" but RUU that is situated in the "Orefkov" folder says still the same: ERROR [200]: Invalid Update Tool
And btw, Orefkov method is for new gene only, am i right?
And I have an old one. And it's already have 1.10.0lip SPL, that allows custom ROM flashing.

Problem was solved by deliting Active Sync, cleaning registry with CCcleaner and installing Active Sync after that...
I think that there was some driver problem or smthng >_<
