FOR EXPERT: ActiveSync/SD flashing don't work: Hardware Issue?? - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development

I bought a HTC Touch Dual (Niki100-20keys) on internet. My home, notebook, office PCs don't recognize it.
This is the original sw configuration:
bootloader: SPL-1.16.000 (CPLD-4)
ROM: 1.31.831.11 (date:11/01/07)
RADIO: 1.58.16.27
OS: windows mobile 6 professional
THE BATTERY RECHARGES WHEN CONNECTED VIA USB.
After searching this forum and talking via PM with some moderators, I flashed WWE official ROM, trying to solve the USB issue. I used the SD-way and it worked fine. Now I have:
bootloader: SPL-1.22.000 (CPLD-4)
ROM: 2.16.831.3 (date:28/11/08)
RADIO: 1.65.29.22
OS: windows mobile 6.1 professional
But the ActiveSync don't work and the SD flashing don't work anymore.
THE BATTERY STILL RECHARGES WHEN CONNECTED VIA USB.
I tried every procedure described in this forum (searched for 3 weeks and tested), but I can't see the phone from PC (also MTTY doesn't recognize it on any COM/Usb port).
It seem to be a Hardware Issue (also according to HTC On-line Technical Service).
Anyone can help me? Is there a test I can do to verify if really USB data transfer channel is broken?? Shoul I try to change USB miniport on the board??
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
I tried to upgrade my imate with bluetooth (instead of cable, because it is in my job)and now the only thing i see in the screen is "Serial v1.02" I have tried to do a full reset but nothing changes. What can i do??? Thanksss
:lol: not buy serial cable!!!
there is an OFFICIAL UPGRADE ready and existing, but not yet PUBLIC,
it is one nice 40 MB RUU file which will uprgade your unit to english language:
Microsoft Pocket PC version 4.20.0 (Build 13252)
ROM version: 1.60.00WWE
ROM date: 12/03/03
Radio version: 1.06.01
Protocol version: 1337.16
ExtROM version: 1.60.06
Indirizzo http://xda-developers.com/incoming/rom160wwe/RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe
IT'S FANTASTIC AND EASY WHIT THE USB CRADDLE
What you may try to do, for a start, is to reinstall the ROM upgrade once again, USING THE USB CRADLE and nothing else. Better remove the SIM card before installing the upgrade. Also, make sure that the battery is fully charged. All through the upgrade process, do not touch the device.
Finally....
Next day When i was in my job put my imate in the cradle, ran the upgrade and it worked.....I am happpppppy ¡¡¡¡
Upgrade failed
I had the same problem as dherrero. However, I have no luck as him. My XDA II still dead can not be boot. Anyone can help? Thanks.
IT's DEAD
I have a MDA from T-Mobile for 3 weeks now. I find out about the rom update (RUU16006WWE_T-mobile_NL.exe), tried it and got the message that the update failed.
On my MDA screen therse is only the message "USB v1.01".
Running the update again doesn't help.
Is there a solution or do I have to contact T-Mobile?
Hi all ,
One of my Friends had the same problem , he tried another computer and it works , then guess what was the problem ???? We found that it was ZONE ALARM !!!
So please check You'r computers guyes ,it might be another software makes the upgrade failed .
Thanks
Hi all!
We have to be aware, that the upgrade program says "NO PROGRAMS RUNNING ON THE PPC AND NO PROGRAMS RUNNING ON THE PC ITSELF"
It's a hard lesson i learned years ago while flashing a BIOS..... if possible, do it at an UPS equipped PC (or notebook btw) to reduce your chances of killing your device.
Windows XP has many more programs running than one would suspect. As a first measure, kill all the ones you can in the right side of your taskbar, shut down your Anti Virus and Firewall, and cross your fingers while upgrading.....
Should we also shut down Activesync? Or is it needed for the upgrade?
Thanx.
I am in the same boat this day. Please help !!! I tried to upgrade the imate threw the club imate ... i downloaded ok i believe ... i did not use the cradel just a mini sync usb cord ... i used this before many times to sync... but when i tried to run the official update it stopped and now it says only serial v1.02 when i put it in the cradel it says usb v1.o2 its dead... no light for batter scharge nothing???? no sync at all please help
ActiveSync is not involved in the upgrade process. The upgrade program runs out of this, with it's own connection and settings via USB.
I haven't used the mini cord, so I'm of no help about it.
Try the upgrade program again, looks like it failed to fully flash your ROM. (That's why you don't see the charging light, it's Software controlled)
Good Luck!

Try to update your imate using a cradle connected to a pc(usb). It should work
i have the exact same problem as highlighted by the others here, USB and v1.02 screen. Question is, how do you continue to flash your rom after it fails and you put back your unit into the cradle and activesync does not sync it anymore
the upgrade doesnt use activesync so it doesnt matter. Just put the imate in the cradle(in other pc, if possible) and run the upgrade
qtek rom update problem
hi guys. my qtek only says USB v 1.02. I cannot do any rom flash. what rom should i use. where can i download it from?

ActiveSync needs help pls.

I've just received Siemens SX56 form a friend. After installed Activesync (I tried both OEM 3.5 and 3.8.0, download from Microsoft website) to computer, I stuck right at the 1st step. ActiveSync couldn't detect the PPC, even I did try it manually by clicking NEXT. The final result from this step is "USB is available" and that's all it. I did install and un-install ActiveSync hundreds of times and also, performed the hard reset on the handheld, but none of these tricks worked. BTW, I have no problem with HotSync of Palm Treo via USB.
My ROM ver. : A.30.09 ENG, Radio ver.: A.33.02
Anyone who has any ideal/solution please help. Many thanks.

Desperately need help with WM6 and active sync

Here's the deal: I need help!!!!!!
I have a HTC TYTN and upgraded it's ROM from WM5 to Custels Ultimate WM6 as he got a lot of good reviews for it. However, there's a bug in it - apparently a bug Mr. Custel was aware of. After upgrading to WM6 my Active sync does no longer work when using USB.
Here's my details:
HERM200
spl-2.10 Olipro
IPL-1.04
Windows Mobile 6 Professional
CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3)
ROM Version: CUSTEL Ultimate
ROM Date: 05/05/07
Radio version: 1.41.00.10
Protocol version: 32.74.7020.18H
I run Active sync 4.5 on my PC.
I have checked that the setting for Active sync is correct on my computer and that the 'Enable advanced network functionality' box is unchecked in the USB-to-Pc setting on my TYTN
I have tried to manually put my TYTN into Bootload to see if it can connect via USB then - and it cannot even if it says USB on my TYTN tricolor screen.
I've deactivated firewall, checked to see if settings for Outlook is correct etc... etc...
I've even tried to put a .nbh file on my SD card and put TYTN into Bootload mode - but it never got past the tricolor screen.....
In other word: I cannot connect my TYTN to my PC and I cannot flash another ROM onto my TYTN to make it work properly with Active sync.
What can I do? Any ideas would be appreciated.
Regards,
Njål
I will try
Well I had the same problem with active sync when I installed wm6 on my cingular 8525 (hermes). Once I figured out to remove the check in the USB to PC window, I removed activesync 4.5 and restarted my pc. Then I reinstalled activesync. I then restarted my pc. I then hooked the usb cable from the cradle that my phone sits in and then placed the phone in the cradle. Everything has worked fine since then. I know for sure that check in USB to PC has to be unchecked. It will not work unless. So try that and see what happens. That is what I had to do. It would not work until I unistalled and reinstalled activesync. Hope this helps.
A little more info:
Here's a little more info when it comes to my problem.
I've read the thread regarding Mr Custel's WM6 Final ROM and after I upgraded my phone, several others has complained about the same problem as I have.
Mr Custel has written that he's aware of the problem and that he will fix it - however, I now see a new ROM upgrade from Mr Custel called Custels Ultimate WM6 ROM. The problem is that I cannot install it since I cannot get an USB connection to work.
I've tried uninstalling Active sync - restart PC - reinstall active sync - restart PC and try to connect. Several times, actually. It doesn't work
Any ideas?
Regards, Njål

Error [262]: Update Error

Hi Friends:
Today, I tried to run my HTC MOGUL PPC-6800 in Bootloader Mode (SPL-1.07.0000) and then I run ROMUpdateUtility (Hard-SPL-MFG) to update the SPL to 2.40-olipro and I got the following:

Can you help me?
Thanks

You must establish a Activesync connection first and not be in Bootloader mode then execute Hard-SPL-MFG.exe. Checkout the updated Wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanRecentHome

I recently did the update with 2.40 and DCD's ROM, I had the same issue. I don't know what I did to make it magically work agian. I tried three different times. Anywho, sorry I can't be more help.
Hi Friends:
I solved the Error [262]: Update Error, it was very simple...
1. I run the Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 with Windows XP-SP2 and then run Hard-SPL-MFG.exe and my NEW SPRINT HTC MOGUL PPC-6800 got a Bootloader Mode with 2.4.Olipro
2. I run RUU_TITAN_SPRINT_WWE_3.35.651.2_RS_TITAN_3.35.04_4350H_SPCS_AM_Ship.exe and I had the following:
Windows Mobile 6 Professional
CE OS 5.2.1629 (Build 18136.0.4.8)
ROM version: 3.35.651.2
ROM date: 02/22/08
Radio version: 3.35.04
3. in Bootloader Mode, I run DCD_3.0.1_Sprint and I had the following:

ROM version: dcd 3.0.1
ROM date: 02/22/08

Oops, sorry I misread that the first time.
If you did uncheck the allow usb connections, you may to try killing the device center process. I've had issues with that before (I use Vista as well).
Look for wmdc.exe in the Process list and try killing that. It should work if you then reconnect your phone. I've had success going that route on Vista anyway.
Tried that too didnt work
Weird because i kno my computer realizes something is connected but I try the titan_exitbl.exe and get that error
is it because im running on vista?

problems: usb, charging, bluetooth

Hi,
my Niki is not charging from USB, nor recognized by PC.
Orange led (charging) is on, WM battery meter says 'charging', but not charging.
Tried with 2 different batteries. Those charge perfectly on an external battery charger.
Blueetooth doesn't work properly. It can see other BT devices, fetch services, but only shows 'serial port' and 'handsfree' while on other WM devices, I can see Obex file transfer, PAN,...

extUSB damaged? if so what about Bluetooth?
A new ROM could fix something? What about Radio version?
thanks a lot!
Try with a new radio, the 1.58.21.23S works fine..

thanks Carlos, but how can I flash radio with a non working USB? (not even in bootloader mode)
could it be done directly from microSD card? I've read you can do this for flashing ROM...
Well, after trying several times/ways, I wasn't able to upgrade anything (SPL, Radio, ROM) from microSD.
But my phone WORKS!!!!
I opened it, and checked for a bad contact on extUSB port.
After inspecting with a lens, I noticed cracks on extusb contacts to the board.
I tried to repair them with a soldering iron, a thin tip, and lots of pacience.
After that, I tried the phone on a pc, and miracle! it was detected, ActiveSync connected, and most important, battery was really charging!!!!
So if you have the same extUSB problem, and out of warranty, check those contacts, otherwise tech service will ask you to replace de mainboard!
