Hi All,
Yes I searched, could not find a helpful post that I could understand (unfortunately a lot of not-so-good english on these forums!).
I used the file 'windowsmobile2003se.exe' here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=230279
It started loading fine, then when it came up with the progress bar to start updating, my device rebooted and is now stuck in bootloader.
When I try himaupgradeut.exe, it gives me a ERROR 101: Connection Error. USB is disabled in ActiveSync and I can see the device as "Microsoft USB Sync".
The USB still works (I can use mtty and xda2unlock in Windows XP and they both work fine). Is the device still recoverable?
I have hard reset (Power + Reset), removed and re-inserted battery and tried a normal reset, none of these work.
Can I please have some step-by-step instructions on how to recover the phone? The bootloader version is 1.06
Thanks.
can you get some pics?
Have you tryed leaving the battery out for 1 day or over night. Because that fixed some problems for me.
try it
flyboy
Yeah I've left the battery out overnight (about 12 hours to make sure the backup battery ran flat). It's still stuck on the boatloader.
It's just got the normal bootloader screen (Serial up top and 1.06 down the bottom) and this changes to USB when in the cradle, so the device seems to be fine.
Any ideas?
Solution found!
I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION FOR RECOVERING FROM BOOTLOADER!
Full props and thanks go to utak3r of buzzdev.net

Hi All,
I have made a script that people can use to easily flash their Himalaya without performing all the above steps manually.
My extreme and eternal thanks go to utak3r (from BuzzDev), xda-developers.com and buzzdev.net for building such great communities and for providing so much help and information (even if it is a little hard to follow sometimes!).
You can download it from;
http://members.iinet.net.au/~nomicakes/MakeSDBoot.zip
http://www.clonnyserver.com/uploads/tools/himalaya/MakeSDBoot.zip
The zip file contains the script and the tools neccesary to do this.
As above, if you aren't familar with flashing devices and the possible outcomes, DO NOT USE THIS TOOL.
Hi there,
Yesterday I tried to upgrade my Qtek 2020 to the last rom available but something went wrong and now my PPC only shows the bootloader screen.
After hours of researching on Google I found this forum and this topic. I tried to do what is in utak3r tutorial but I can't connect to my PPC using mtty (usb port can't open) and I don't know why. :\
When I try himaupgradeut.exe, it gives me a ERROR 101: Connection Error too...
And finally when I run this script made by Clontarf it fails on the last step on writing to the SD card. It gives me a Error - Access Denied.
I don't know how to solve this. Would you please help me?
Problem solved!
Just wondering if this is working on our devices? its working on the desire now
h t t p: / /forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=772795
and if so what steps do we need to take to get it working? thanks guys.
According to a discussion on a different forum, a few people have tried this on the Eris but it fails to flash. So still waiting on our phone, sadly they don't list the Eris on their compatibility list. They do list the HTC Hero but I'm not sure if they use the same USB Controller or not. Someone far more educated in this field can help with that.
Googling around a little pulled up a few discussions that appeared to indicate that the eris is a compatible usb controller. But I tried flashing it (one KayosFroyo v32) and as mentioned I get a error during flash... Hopefully someone can get it working.
What exactly is this?

According to the PSFreedom compatibility chart development for the Eris is "In Progress." It appears that a custom kernel will have to be built to support the exploit, presumably not too difficult.

well from what i read from the github tracker @ http://github.com/kakaroto/PSFreedom
he says: This linux kernel module should work on the N900 (RX51 machine).
It uses the musb driver to access the address of the usb and modify it.
If you want to port this, have a look at psfreedom_machine.c and implement the
missing functions for your device. Make it compile-time #ifdef and modify
the Makefile.
To compile, type 'make' inside scratchbox.
dont know how to do this just hoping this will help someone with porting it
UPDATE: just found a small how-to on how to port it if anyone understands this and/or how to do it all ps3+eris owners will forever be in your debt
Q: How can I port it to a new device.
A: Well, first, you need to figure out what controller your device uses, in the case of the N900, it’s ‘musb’..
Then go to the driver code for that controller (probably in drivers/usb/gadget) and look for ‘SET_ADDRESS’. In the case of musb, it was in drivers/usb/musb/musb_gadget_ep0.c. In there it was setting the address to the USB device, so just copy that code into the psfreedom_machine.c to allow setting the address, and add a similar function to be able to retreive the address.
Then add a function to return 0 or 1 depending on whether the controller supports HIGH, FULL or LOW speed mode (go to usb_gadget_register_driver for your controller, and in the first lines, it should validate the speed argument, it will tell you which ones are acceptable), set LOW speed mode to return TRUE only if FULL speed isn’t available .
Finally, add a function to return the endpoint names.. it will usually be something like ‘epXin’ and ‘epXout’ (where X is the endpoint number), or “epXin-bulk”, etc.. look at how the driver initializes its endpoints or grep for “->name” in the file to find where it sets it…
Edit: the controller the eris uses is MSM72K
any new developments on this? i see it's now listed on the PSfreedom compatibility list as in progress.
h t t p://psfreedom.com/wiki/index.php?title=Device_compatibility_list
As of this morning the website psfreedom.com is not available as well as the link for the chart is broken. I did many tests with my eris, using a CM6 Froyo rom to Other roms that were ported from other phones with different pse-enable zips. The best I was able to get to was the boot screen with the 3 skateboard androids. That setup was a CM6 2.2 rom with the zip files for the HTC Wildfire. Every other setup the zip failed to flash thru recovery. Thats the best I got so far.
EDIT
cant sleep so I tried to get onto psfreedom website and it is back up. It has been ported to the motorla droid. hopefully soon we will be so lucky
posted in another thread but here it is again.
I dont think we will be seeing this on the eris for sometime as the USB driver used is actually the msm_hsusb driver. This was verified last night when i was in #psfreedom where someone was trying to get psfreedom on an eris and kept running into a problem and it turned out to be because of the msm_husb driver was in use. so until that msm_husb driver is working with psfreedom we are probably SOL.
This is now working on the Eris i tested it for the dev waiting for him to officially release it should be this afternoon.
If what your saying is true I will name my children after you and the dev LOL
Sent from my Eris using XDA App
For the love of humanity don't.
Any way you can list what you did try and where I can get the files needed to try this myself... maybe with instructions on how? I very much want to try this and have been patiently waiting for days now.
http://psfreedom.com/wiki/Device_compatibility_list
have fun guys all credit goes to the Dev rgov and the other devs working on psfreedom
I've carefully read the directions on the PSFreedom Wiki site for Droid Eris. My first question is this:
How can I achieve S-off in the bootloader? My Eris is rooted and I am currently running KaosFroyo v34. When I reboot to bootloader, it shows S-on and I cannot fastboot.
yeah i had the same exact issue that's why i made the note in the wiki. i essentially had to go through and redo the root following jcases post here.
hope it's not against the rules to link this......
http://androidforums.com/eris-all-things-root/121597-how-install-engineering-bootloader.html
Trying now... will keep you updated. Thank you.
Question: Since my phone is already rooted, do I just start at step 6 and flash PB00IMG.zip? To be honest, these directions are kinda confusing to me. I tried this method months ago and was never able to fastboot... maybe I am doing something wrong. coffindancer, I appreciate any and all help you are providing and hopefully you can assist me in getting this PSFreedom up and running.
i think you can start with PB00IMG.ZIP and it will go ahead and reflash the boot loader so it's S-OFF im not positive though. Im a freak and just followed the steps pretty much step by step maybe someone with more experience can explain it better.
So even though you were already rooted, did you still flash the engtools.zip? Or did you skip step 2?
skipped step 2 i believe.
also the dev is redoing the wiki so if you don't see the link for the files just be patient.
Hello again.
Well, more than 24 hours have passed since my original posting and nothing! Many of you read my post, but nobody felt able or willing to offer to help.
So, terrified and having no clue as to what I was doing, after another day of work - success! Amazing! And, I think, more by luck than anything else...
I am going to list below what I did, in the hope that some other poor soul might find something useful in it.
But I cannot stop myself from saying that in this whole website I was unable to find a CLEAR, ORGANIZED and COMPLETE procedure or tutorial about how to upgrade the HTC Hermes - a great pity. It would be a worthwhile endeavour to produce such a document, in language that anybody could understand. No, not even the definitions in the Glossary are enough.
This is what I did:
Preliminaries
- Since I'm working on a Windows 7 Home Premium laptop, I have first installed new drivers for the Mobile Device ("x64 AS Drivers Win 7 Tested & Working") - useful info here: http://www.techparaiso.com/windows-...flash-junkies-on-windows-mobile-phone-devices
This was done in preparation to installing Mitty.
Since these drivers are not signed, you have to restart the laptop, press F8, select to start windows without checking Digitally Signed Certificates
- Installed Mitty
- Installed Hard-SPL-V7 - this one seem to be permanent
- Then I tried to follow the Hermes Upgrade Guide (http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hermes_UpgradeGuide ) - no luck. No idea what was wrong, but in Step 7, I did not have any files named 00_IPL.nb, 01_SPL.nb to delete as per instructions, so I abandoned this course
What worked:
(still with Hard-SPL-V7 installed, still with drivers for Win 7 installed, still with laptop started with Windows - F8 - disable drivers signature checking)
- In the end, I downloaded 21501_1_Springtime.zip from http://www.ferretlife.com/josh/ (once again, many thanks to Hakim Rahman for pointing me to this ROM!)
- I unzipped the file in its own folder; this produced 2 files:
RUU_signed.nbh <= this is the actual update file
RUUWrapper.exe <= this is the program we have to run that will take the RUUWrapper.exe (after we rename it to HERMIMG.nbh) and apply it to the HTC Hermes
- I renamed RUU_signed.nbh to HERMIMG.nbh
- At this point:
I connected my Hermes to the laptop with the USB cable and waited until it was recognized and WMDC came up and connected to the Hermes
I configured WMDC for sync and partnership (did not check more than "Notes" for sync, since I was not really interested in any sync)
- I ran RUUWrapper.exe (from its folder on the laptop) and followed the prompts
○ => I chose proper ILP - for me it was IPL-1.04 and SPL-2.10.011pro (the AutoDetect did not work for me, whether I checked the "Is it a hard SPL?" or not)
○ => after program got to "Verifying ..." it produced Error 260 - at some point, the device was disconnected from WMDC (ActiveSync)
- All that is left is to shut down WMDC, soft-reset Hermes and try again. In one of the many tries, amazingly, it got to start the Upgrade on the Hermes before I got the Error 260, and, although the Error 260 was displayed, it continued with the upgrade and ended successfully, but it did not reboot the Hermes - I turned it off and on again - it worked!
Still confused, but elated by my luck,

Hello everybody!
I am a real, total, complete, hopeless, newbie and I'm writing in the hope that some kind soul with knowledge and experience in upgrading may be willing to hold my hand for updating the OS on my Hermes.
I have been reading the xda-developers.com on and off for about a week now and all I can say is:
1. I am awe-struck by the passion and knowledge of the people active on this site
2. I am overwhelmed by all I have read - I fear I do not understand much of it, certainly not enough as to have the courage to proceed with the update by myself
This is where I am now:
1. I have installed Mitty on my PC and even made it work (!)
2. I ran one of the many Hard-SPL-V7 to be found here and the bootloader screen did display the modified info; eventually, I clued in to the fact that the changes this software made to my HTC were only temporary
3. I regrouped and now:
- I have read more than once the Hermes Upgrade Guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Hermes_UpgradeGuide
- I have downloaded and decompressed:
Hard-SPL.zip
[*]ModifiedRUUUpdater-V2 (ROMUpgradeUt.exe)
[*]NBHextract
[*]nbhgen0.1
[*]RUU_Hermes_WWE_WM6.5.28205.MobileVista6.50SeaDragon_UC_YouTube_V2_by_ansar
At this point, I'm ready to follow point by point the instructions in the Hermes Upgrade Guide, but I have a lot of questions about what each of these software is, what they do, how they should be installed or run.
Bottom line: I'm terrified!
That's why I would love to find a kind mentor and helper, to hold my hand and direct me in the actual upgrade.
Anybody? Please PM me. I am available on Skype. I live in Toronto, so my hour is same as New York.
I have an HTC Hermes 200 (TyTn), originally from Rogers (Canada). I had it unlocked (SIM unlock?) by a technician in a store a while back and I can use different SIM cards with it.
Very gratefully yours,
ML
P.S. Forgot to mention: I'm working on a Windows 7 Home Premium and I did update the drivers with "x64 AS Drivers Win 7 Tested & Working"
Goooooooooooood is it work with my herm 200
I sent a "Quick Reply" yesterday, but I can't see it anywhere - ?!
So here I go again. First of all, I want to thank you for writing - as you might have noticed, nobody else had anything to say in response to my post, certainly nobody offered to help.
Secondly, I'd like to ask if you installed Josh's "Springtime" ROM to your HTC Hermes and, if so, how is it working for you.
I'm having problems with it: various sounds (especially when booting, but not only), various "phantom screens", i.e. screens that flash so fast that I don't get to see what's on them, but appear empty. Also, today, when attempting to pair a BT headset, the device froze. The only way to fix it was a hard-reset, thus a reinstall of the ROM (lost all data...). Tried again the pairing with the Bluetooth headset - this time it worked. Loaded data again OK. Made a change in the order of the items in the Today screen OK. Tried to have a look at the insides of the device with "My Mobiler" and - without my actually doing anything, my Hermes is now - again! - frozen.
I'm getting fed up with this, it gives me no confidence at all in the ROM. Any thoughts?

to BT headset you can try the way of sas90850 in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=273105&page=2
Thanks for the suggestion - I'll check it out.
In the meantime, my HTC Hermes (with its new "Springtime" ROM, installed and re-installed several times) continues to freeze at various times, for no reason I can fathom. I'm not a happy camper...
Hello all,
I have googled, and searched forums high and low to no result so I thought i'd ask.
I recently purchased "KVD APOLLO ONE K6589 Quad-Core Android 4.2.1 WCDMA Smartphone w/ 5.5"
Im new so I can't post external links, however if you go to google or deal extreme and search, you'll find it easy enough.
The phone itself was next to nothing ($180) so even if its Unrootable, I'm not too fussy.
I would however prefer it rooted, I have read that you can basically use the MTK6577 rooting tool on the device?
Would this risk bricking the device.
I'v attempted to contact the manufacturer however to no avail! This is a rather new model so I know im being a tad impatient but if anyone can help then please do
Thanks guys

Also looks like im getting the Star N9589 just due to the more support available.
Anyhow until then, failing any answers from here, another chinese forum a spanish one and Yahoo answers I am going to go with the following method, If it dies, It dies this was my own fault for not doing enough research and at least it lets others know. I would send it back to DX But cba with postage fees and the hassle;
THIS IS DONE AT YOUR OWN RISK! -
APOLLO ONE - MTK 6589 K6589
Please note all tools and zip files mentioned I cant link to yet should you feel you want them please post in this thread and I will PM you, Gotta get my post count up first!
Guide by philipkroberts Twitter @philipkroberts
Revision 1 - People to be added to credits for leehed source, currently untested, concept only
Before anything try and boot into any form of recovery mode and backup if possible!
DISABLE UAC in WINDOWS 7
RIGHT CLICK RUN AS ADMIN ON ALL FILES
ALLOW NON TRUSTED DRIVER INSTALLATION (Google this if unsure)
On the phone install anububu on pc phone. - See what model it detects as and note it down.
Run MTK DROID TOOLS and connect phone see if drivers After a few seconds, the box should turn blue, and it should say "Apollo ONE or Other Name " besides it. The drivers are working.
If not try the other drivers in the drivers folder using device manager, there are many tutorials for this I cba typing one im so tired! and make sure you have the only trusted drivers thing turned off, if you constantly get unknown driver then your out of look and wil have to try and source some yourself.
Win7 (This method has not been tested by myself. Confirmation required.)
HOW TO MANUALLY INSTALL ANY DRIVERS IF NEEDED
a - Downloading This tool Called EASYBCD
b - Use it to restart your computer in advanced boot mode. (PRESSING F8 WHILST BOOTING UNTIL YOU GET THE OPTION FOR Disable signed driver enforcement)-Must be done everytime you wanna root a phone with this method.
c - Follow instructions and disable SDE.
d Manually install drivers, if above did not work (Yellow sign issue)
e Navigate to control panel - > Hardware and Sound - > Device Manager
f You should see a driver notice with a yellow warning sign next to it.
g Right click on it and choose "Update driver..".
h- Manually assign drivers, usually the choice furthest down.
i- In the window which should have appeared, navigate to the preload/Mt6590 folder and press OK.
j- If SDE is turned off, you should see a red warning window. This is normal, just accept the message prompted.
k- The drivers should now be successfully installed.
l - Once this is done open C:\Users\Hate\Desktop\Chinese Droid Rooting\MTKROOT TOOLS\Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v28\runme.bat Hope it ****ing works if so your rooted, If not try this next few steps, AGAIN at your own risk, no need to format just continue from here.

0 - Use PC to copy UPDATE-SuperSU-v.1.25.zip to the root of SD CARD, do not unpack just leave whole zip there.
1 - Turn off your phone, remove your battery. (Do not connect your phone to the computer yet!)
2 - Navigate to the "SP Flash Tool" folder, and run the tool.
3 - On the right side of the tool, there should be a button, iconed with a folder, named "Scatter-Loading". Click this.
4 - Navigate to the "Yulypis Recovery" folder, and double-click on the "Mt6589_Android_scatter-emmc.txt".
5 - You should be back at the SP Flash Tool start-screen, and there should have appeared a list of text and hex-codes.
6 - The "Recovery" line, should be ticked off, and preloader should be red.
7 - Now, click on the button named "Download", with a blue arrow on it. Press "YES" on the NOT ALL images has been correctly loaded warning.
8 - Connect your phone to a USB 2.0, with removed battery. The program should now work, and if drivers is set up correctly, the 0% will turn 100% and a green circle will appear in the middle of the screen. If your phone disconnects before the flashing tool is able to recognize your device, try putting the battery back into the phone before running SP Flash tool. Additionally, if this doesn't work, try using different drivers in the drivers folder
9 - Disconnect your K6589 from the computer when you see the green circle, insert the battery and boot the phone. Wait for it to get to the start screen.
11 - Installing SuperSU through Yulypis recovery
12 - Run "MtkDroidTools.exe" from the folder.
13 - Connect your device, and after a few seconds, information about your device should appear.
14 - Click on reboot, on the mtkDroidTools start-screen, and choose "..recovery".
15 - If recovery has been properly flashed, your device will now enter Yulypis recovery. Blue, with english text.
16 - Controllers: "Power = Enter, Initialize", "Volume down = Scrolling down". (Don't remember if volume up was bugged or not)
17 - Enter "Install zip from SDcard" - > Navigate to the earlier copied "UPDATE-SuperSU-v.1.25.zip and initialize it by pressing the power button.
18 - Follow the on-screen instructions, and it should be prompted to install after 1-2 more screens.
19 - Reboot the device by clicking on "+++++back+++++" and "Reboot now / Reboot Device".
Either way I am going to smash this in a week or so when the phone arrives from DX and will keep people update.
Peace
Please I want to buy this phone. Can you answer me a few doubts I have?
- How is the viewing angle? Cause i purchased a tablet from china and the angle is very bad.
- Has proximity sensor?
Are you ok with the phone?
thank you.

I'm still awaiting the phone, hence why that guide is at your own risk.
However from what I have been told and gather that should root the phone no problems.
As for custom roms, I wouldn't even bother trying!
Once the phone gets here I will test my tutorial and re-write it into a more easy on the eyes fashion.
Thanks

They sell the phone, for an extra $3 they root before sending.
It cant be that hard, I'd love to know someone in that factory!
I'm looking for a link to download the full stock firmware for this device.
Anyone, please?
...or at least a firmware dump from a non-modified working phone.
One could use MTK Droid Tools and SPFlash to perform this task easily.
PM me for assistance if you need it.
Thank you.
I bricked my Desire 310 when i tried to replace the stock recovery.
Rooted it successfully, read a lot of threads regarding MTK-based phones and thought i might be able to get more out of it, as i wasn't completely fine with 4.2.2 installed on a brand new phone.
However, i ended up with trying to install a custom recovery as described [here(would be a link if i were allowed to post them)]. The whole process gave no error, everything looked fine, ending with a "success!"-message, followed by a reboot, showing just the HTC splash... and a reboot... and a reboot... and.. well i guess you know what happened next.
Based on a whole lot of different threads, this might not be the end of my phone, as i can still see the [preloader(would be a picture if i were allowed to link it)] in my device manager, which basically means "hi, i'm not completely dead and you might find a way to recover me".
The question is: how?
I tried out SP Flash tool and MTK Flash tool so far. both programs find the phone when i get it ready to download my previously made backup (hey. i might not exactly know what i'm doing there, but at least i saved everything before i wrecked it! ).
The problem is: I just get an[error message(look above)] about some failed download to SRAM sorcery, which sounds cool and important but doesn't give me a clue about what i'm doing wrong or how to fix it. (cable ok tested 3 different cables, including the one the device was shipped with, also tested it on my PC running win 8.1 x64 and another one running win 7 x86)
Does anyone have an idea how i could get at least a working bootloader/recovery back to my device?
Tell me if you need any extra information
I also link an attachment including the log file created by SP Flash Tool.

I tried out SP Flash tool and MTK Flash tool so far. both programs find the phone when i get it ready to download my previously made backup (hey. i might not exactly know what i'm doing there, but at least i saved everything before i wrecked it! ).
The problem is: I just get an[error message(look above)] about some failed download to SRAM sorcery, which sounds cool and important but doesn't give me a clue about what i'm doing wrong or how to fix it. (cable ok tested 3 different cables, including the one the device was shipped with, also tested it on my PC running win 8.1 x64 and another one running win 7 x86)
Does anyone have an idea how i could get at least a working bootloader/recovery back to my device?
Tell me if you need any extra information
I also link an attachment including the log file created by SP Flash Tool.

I bricked my Desire 310 when i tried to replace the stock recovery.
Rooted it successfully, read a lot of threads regarding MTK-based phones and thought i might be able to get more out of it, as i wasn't completely fine with 4.2.2 installed on a brand new phone.
However, i ended up with trying to install a custom recovery as described [here(would be a link if i were allowed to post them)]. The whole process gave no error, everything looked fine, ending with a "success!"-message, followed by a reboot, showing just the HTC splash... and a reboot... and a reboot... and.. well i guess you know what happened next.
