Hello,
I wish to upgrade my Orange SPV M3100 to WM6 or 6.1.
Unfortunately, I can't establish an ActiveSync connection with my PC. I plug in the USB cable but nothing happens - the phone charges, nothing else. I have tried with 3 other PCs and they give the same result.
Therefor, I can't install HardSPL, which means I can't upgrade to WM6, as there are none for my CID.
On that subject: the upgrading guide says the flash will not work if the CID doesn't match. Does this mean "using the wrong ROM to match your CID will brick the phone"?
I just thought I'd point out that contact has been made via Bluetooth, however I don't think this is suitable for installing HardSPL.
EDIT:
After some experimentation, guessing, and praying, I've managed to upgrade the phone.

Hi ,
I had 1.72.00wwe on my phone but i was tryin 2 upgrade it further but it got stuck while upgrading and its showing seril while not on cradle and while on cradle its showing usb 1.06
plz hlp me iam newbee and not good in programmin .I also have asecond Xda2 with 1.66.00wwe plz tell if it can b of any help
Reset your device, place it in the cradle and re-run the upgrade.
thanx i tried it already from 2 computers in one its showing error 103 no rom image found and in another its showing error 101 country code problem
Which ROM are you attempting to upgrade to? Which one exactly had you previously upgrade to? What operator do you use?
I'm asking all this to try and get a better picture. Normally, people in your situation can recover by applying the same upgrade again, or, at worst, re-applying the one they are upgrading from.
Make sure you are in bootloader mode (by pressing Jog button and Power button at the same time as pressing reset) before retrying any upgrade. Also make sure the USB cradle is plugged directly into a USB port on your PC and not through a hub and that the power supply is connected to the cradle. It may help to make sure that Activesync isn't running also.
active sync
in the active sync tray it shows that not connected
Well i had 1.72.00wwe rom image 1.14 earlier and iwas tryiong to upgrade to 1.72. something can't remember exactly but it was with rom image 1.17 it was downloaded from t mobile and my current phone is from o2

Activesync is not needed for upgrades. The upgrade process looks after its own connection. I suggest you follow the procedures in my post here to overcome the Country ID error problem. You will need to know what the device's operator and language IDs are currently set to, which is why I asked you above. I suspect you won't have Devicedata.txt, so it becomes necessary to know what operator and language the previous upgrade was.
to revive your XDA2 again
The main point is what is ROM 1.66 come from (e.g. i-mate ot T-mobile)
If you doesn't upgrade 1.66 ROM by yourself or it came from factory ,you must tell us which operator did you buy from.
If you try upgrade across operator ,it will hang on boot loader screen.
And again, which 1.72 ROM did you try to upgrade from?
Hi,
I upgraded ROM on G4 Wizard CID-locked wizard from T-Mobile CZ 2.21 to Superrom 1.1. But after flash, wizard stuck in splashscreen with IPL/SPL.
I can go to bootloader, but when I tried to flash another ROM via RUU (T-Mobile CZ official, Superrom for CID-locked G4 or Novii Love), RUU said - Connection Error. Simply AS and RUU can't connect to PDA. PC identified Unknown device, when I plugged wizard to PC
I tried it on 2 PCs (1. AS4.2, 2. AS 4.5 beta2), nothing....
Any ideas ? Thanks very much
Are you doing it in the correct order? That sounds dumb i know...but i had a similar problem and found out it was because i wasnt doing it in the correct order.
You have to setup bootloader and then connect usb, if you do it the other way around you get some funny errors. Thats just what i found....it may not be of help to you.
Sorry if you know this already, just trying to help, im new too.
ROM
I know i wont be fixing your problem, but, you can be sure that after the comunication problem is solve, you can use the WizardLove rom.
I mess with my phone recently, and i got stuck at the bootloader, and that rom was the only one that worked.
Ok, thank you
Problem was found. When I tried to find driver for PPC automatically, PC found nothing, but when I manually chose driver from AS\Drivers, PC driver found
Now I can flash via RUU
i had the same problem was working till 5 am to solve it
folow the directions in this thread and it should be alive once again

Hey,
So, I've got a strange problem. I've bought my HTC TyTn a few weeks ago and I've allready used the HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3 to SIM unlock my phone. Everything went fine and I was very happy until the day of releasing WM06 for my device. I've downloaded again the HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3 and tried to remove CID to make my device superCID. But now it seems it just doesn't work properly or maybe I'm doing something wrong. Each time the RUU starts ( after softreset, because of confirming 'yes' for sspl, it starts in bootloader ) it can't connect to the device... I don't know what to do, it seems that I do something wrong, but I don't have any idea what
I thougt that maybe just don't need to change the radio, and everything I need to do is to copy the Herm_Unlock_v3, run it and select to remove CID lock. Tried that way but don't have any idea how to check if it's superCID already. Anyway I tried to upgrade to WM6 after that, and It has same problem. RUU just can't connect to my device when it's in bootloader.
Am I doing something wrong ? Somehow it just can't connect to the device now, but at the first time it was perfect. If anyone knows the answer, please report me
sry for my english
I would be happy if someone could help me
Which RUU are you using? Which SPL is on your phone. You may not need to connect in bootloader. If you are using the custom RUU and a "Hard" SPL - then try connecting with the phone up in regular mode.
Found the solution. I think that my USB port in PC is corrupted. Changed the port and everything went fine
Hi,
I had successfully used ShellTool to load Crossbow Reloaded v1.5 on my Xda Mini S (G4 CID-Locked)
But then I became inquisitive and I tried loading the WM6 Business Edition.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302934
The process interrupted abruptly as the activesync connection broke (Don't know why that happened.) However I restart the device and now it is stuck on the initial blue O2 screen displaying IPL, SPL, GSM and OS information.
Now it is mentioned here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293480
That if the device does not boot I should restart it in the bootloader (which I did), connect the usb and run RUU. But the download (Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.rar) contains newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe and on running that I get the CONNECTION ERROR. I think this is happening because in bootloader, actyivesync cannot connect.
Sorry I am a novice in this... please help.
Regards.
Activesync will not connect from the bootloader. This is not a problem. Activesync is not needed to flash your phone. You just need the USB connection in the bootloader. As long as you see the letters USB in the corner you can flash.
Did you use the shelltool in the attempt to load the other WM6 rom? And if ActiveSync is required to use the shelltool then you may have to flash an official carrier rom in your current state (one that matches your CID so it will flash) and once your device boots again you should be able to use the shelltool and load the other rom that you want.
Personally this sounds like a big hassle to me and if it were me I would just pay the 25 bucks or whatever it is to get the unlocking software from the unlocker website and CID unlock my device so I could pretty much flash at will (G4 safe roms of course)
Downloaded the original rom from my-xda.com and it worked. Got the original system back.
Just updated to faria's wm6 using the same shelltool and all works fine. Looking at voip now.
thanks for the suggestion.
Cheers..
Hello all,
I Eb'd an HTC wizard (cingular 8125) running Wizard Love/NBD WM 6.
On the load screen I get:
AKU 2.3;
IPL and SPL:2.25.0001;
radio:2.25.11;
rom: 6.0.0.0.
My carrier is Tmobile.
Question 1: If my phone has this newer ROM and it takes calls on the Tmobile network it has been CID unlocked and SIM unlocked...right?
I wanna update my rom and think that I am competent enough to do so but there is alot to learn and this is not my full time gig...right.
Question 2: So, if I am correct in Q1 I should be able to flash roms right?
However when I attempt to do so the RUU gives me [error 224]. Active sync and or WMDC says its connected. (I installed the AS drivers in WMDC)
Question 3: Where do I go from here?
Question 4: The wi-fi is currently not working will a new rom potentially clear this up?
Thanks in advance for the time and advice..
grazie
hmmmm,
Well,did you updated to NBD wm6 yourself ? and how did you updated ? which method you adopted ? SoftSPL or HardSPL ?
You say its SIM unlocked as it takes calls on the Tmobile network .Did you SIM unlocked with lokiwiz03a ?
yes ! a G4 can be SIM unlocked but it can not be CID unlocked,however,it can be upgraded to wm6 rom,but with method either 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL'.With your present ipl/spl 2.25.0001 and you say its NBD wm6 running,then it must have been upgraded through 'SoftSPL' method,as it uses patched ipl/spl and Cid unlocks the phone temporarily,but it never permanently CID unlocks the phone.But with 'HardSPL' ,it changes the ipl/spl to a patched ipl 2.21.0001 and spl 2.21 olip.So everytime you want to upgrade,you'll have to upgrade using 'SoftSPL' method.
could you elaborate a little more about this.
Cheers!
Hey thanks for the correspondence zabardast_1, I have been getting frustrated and I have many times contemplated going for the brick or bust approach here.
So, I have done none of the updating on this rig. I rec'd it and I wanted it primarily for wifi however I can't get the wifi card/ (sdiowlan I believe) to even recognize an AP (... I posted in the networking forum but no response.) Thus my own reasoning leads me to believe I should start from scratch with a new rom unless you know of something else.
So, I am not the most savvy and thought that all of the info I had led to SIM and CID unlocked. I just read otherwise last night and in your reply. The info I have provided is accurate the IPL, SPL, radio, although I don't know which NBD release it is; just says 6.0.0.0 and release date: 2/2/07.
I am trying to get the new rom on the my device however and I would've probably already bricked it if I could get an RUU to communicate with my wiz. I always get [Error 224] when I run it and my phone is connected through active sync. I am running vista but have installed the AS drivers for WMDC. I also tried it at work the other day with XP same situ. I then tried flashing from the bootloader screen with an NBD, Wizard Love ( w/ Italian installer?), and T-mob (226102_22610105_022511). The only one that says it will update is the Tmob ROM, however I got cold feet at the update button and canceled.
Other funny stuff I have observed that may or may not be related to the problems I am having are:
Can't install cab files ie (enable rapi or Cert SPCS) and Wiz Sys Tools couldn't read my CID block and hard_SPL G4 gives me REXX error ( SPL_Version has no value).
So, any wizdom you or anybody can drop is much appreciated and needed at this point.
Whew...
Listen carefully. G4 Wizard cannot be CID-unlocked without paying money. (And yes, you are using a G4).
What you need now is to Flash your original stock carrier ROM (Or wizard love) to get your OS back. Then either use SoftSPL or install HardSPL and flash WM6 ROM.
Thanks Starkwong,
I will try installing wizard love tomorrow at work and if that don't work I will attempt a Cing ROM (will all of these work or do I need to mind my G3's and G4's for these???)
Grazie
So, It worked using Wizard Love at work and out of the bootloader window. Now I need to:
1.) Get wifi working.
2.) Get a newer ROM
I put a post up in the networking thread, I am a tool so far as these devices are concerned so be easy on me.

So do I get the wifi issue resolved before I reflash???
Thx again
I don't know what you mean by "wifi not working".
Maybe it is the wifi AP doesn't allow 11Mbps (802.11b) connections?
However, going to any of the WM6 ROMs should already set the registry to allow Wizard connects to G-Only APs. Just use HardSPL/SoftSPL and flash a WM6 and you will see.
OK so "wifi not working" may indeed be a general statement...
What I mean to say is that I am not able to connect to any wireless networks for internet not home (Linksys WRT 54G v5 with ddwrt firmware) or school (university wide) or my city's wifi network. It won't even detect them at least none that Ive seen since I've rec'd this phone. So, that is what I meant by the ambiguous statement.
So, being as your last post was a success I will try as you say and post the results tomorrow. Thanks again starkwong!!!
1 quick thing however, to be sure, I can now try the hard spl or soft spl method of tricking my phone to run an upgrade to WM6?
Still not able to get wifi APs????
OK although I have been successful at reinstalling the Mfg ROM and then Hard SPL'ing my wizard thanks to ya'll I still am unable to connect to a wireless network (see one even). I have the Olip on my SPL and I installed a TNT version of WM6 and I am still at work (drunk but still here). Anyway I can't see my wireless AP and I am beginning to think its a hardware issue if thats possible, i dunno the dynamics of this system maybe thats why it was for sale. In any event as usual I am willing to try what ever you guys throw at me as you're my only hope obi wan. Alright Im gonna go home for the night and try getting on to my home network.
Thanks again for all the help guys.
Is your device a original one from phone operator? I suspect your device is a China Dopod 838 with replaced casing, because the China version has the wifi hardware removed, so wifi can't be started even if an English ROM is used.
Looks to be authentic 8125
Starkwong, the Cingular logo and the 8125 model # are on the phone case where they have been when I've seen them before in pics. Therfore, I dunno I guess it looks like every other 8125 I've seen. Can I check the SN, IME or anything to be sure?
Thanks Again!!!
Starkwong,
I am getting all the options for wifi on my phone the LHS LED flashes green when I enable it and alternates blue green when BT is enabled. So, could it still be that its a dupod? I dunno but I am going home for the night... Thanks for your help. I will try connecting to my home network when I get there.
