Hey all,
I am sorry posting the repeated question again, but this has a bit of a twist, and to this, i searched and didnt find any answer around.
My friends just bought a HTC P3300 from China. It came with a chinese DOPOD rom.
I had the original Shipped htc rom with me there so i upgraded my 1st friends mobile, with the shipped rom successfully, and then upgraded it to wm6 successfully.
now when i flashed my 2nd friend's device with the HTC Shipped rom, the upgrade process went to 3% and then the device just restarted and got stuck on the Initial dopod boot screen.
It is not moving from there.
So i downladed a couple of other roms, including the DOPOD ship rom,. but when i try to upgrade it, it says " ERROR:200, The Upgrade Software is outdated" kinda message!
now can someone please guide me how can i bring alive my friends rom, what is it i should do to successfully install some rom in it in English.
Please help!
thanks a lot!
Hi all,,
Please someone help me out with this problem...
Which rom should i try, or what is the problem with this?
Thanks a lot.
Did you cid unlock the hone either with USPL or IMEIcheck? If so, you should be able to load an OEM rom back on the phone. Try the HTC WWE WM5 rom or the German WM6...I dont see any reason why an unlocked phone wont accept at least one of those.
hi itschase...
No, i dont know if it was cid unlocked or not.
About USPL or IMEICHECK, nothign was done on it.
As i mentioned, one phone got flashed successfully, but the other failed!
I have tried the HTC WWE WM5 shipped rom, if thats what u are hinting to, but not the German WM6.
I have a crazy idea...
My phone is not bricked, but I was able to try running the USPL ROM Update utility on my phone from bootloader. I have zero idea if this would unbrick your phone, but its worth a shot - cant get much worse (or can it?). Download the USPL file, and run just the rom update utility with your phone in bootloader. After it resets your phone, put it back into bootloader and try reinstalling an OEM rom. I am probably wasting your time, but its worth a shot....
s
aaaaa
llllll
Insane Devil:
you need original rom for your device (with correct model id).
this should flash your device.
in the future, install uspl on your device before upgrading rom.
regards,
Factory Roms should be able to help u out in this...?

Good Idea but ... not correct!
Your device might be CID locked and you were able to run USPL from bootloader, because ... you already have had USPL. Am I right?

hello, i have read and read all the wiki's, but ive not been able to fix my phone.
i use a cingular 8525 (herm100) phone, and cannot install any rom on the phone. I have two versions of the At&t ROM with radio's and tried them both, but they all stop at 11-12 %.
i have tried usind the sd-card method, and it does not pass the "GSM - " portion.
i guess the radio is not working or is corrupt or something..
my phone is now in bootloader and just says
HERM100
IPL-1.04
HERM100
SPL-2.03
please any help will be appreciated. thank you!!!!
wow.. can anyone even say "sorry"
geez.. 35 views, and not even one reply, or consolation message, or anything??
I would update your copy of Windows Mobile Device Center first (especially if you're using Vista). Flash SPL and the radio, then flash any rom to see what happens. I mean really at this point, it's already a brick... try some crazy stuff, you can't hurt it anymore than it already is. I did the same thing to mine a couple of months ago, and after trying these things, I got it working again without a problem.
update to hard spl ver.7.
try to flash
a). stock rom (sometimes this works)
b). radio only rom.
Also make sure you unlock your phone with this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
Hope this helps...

Just to make sure I understand, the unlocker you linked is to SIM and CID unlock, correct ?? And then on top of that - you should update to HardSpl also ??
I have an 8525 on its way that I will be looking to upgrade - just want to make sure I am understanding correctly.

sorry for the late reply
i have been dealing with this for 3 days and finally managed to run official AT&T rom for 4 days wout hard reset.
there is a method dumping an official himalaya rom to hermes. az pof explained in one of his posts all commands except radio commands are different in himalaya so it is safe to use dumping method.
it basically deletes everything in radio rom so you can install official rom.
PS: at first install official rom stucked %12 i said damn but in second try %15 third try success
i am at work now i dont have the link of method but try googling or searching my posts (not too much )
i hope it solves your problem
bartan
thanks guys, i've tried some things
i have tried using Hard SPL v.7 it does not work.
i have tried using official cingular roms too. stops at 11% no success.
i have tried upgraing radio only, stops a 0% and restarts the device.
i have also used mtty, with some text inputs, no success
i have even tried selling the brick on e-bay .... as you can guess no success.!
bill_in_mtl, sorry bout lateness of my reply ( net problems), yes you do unlock sim and cid. Sim unlock means you can use ANY simcard from any carrier and Cid unlock means you can flash ANY hermes rom (both official or cooked). It needs to be unlocked first as the spl is downgraded to 1.40 (I think) and you should REALLY be running with 2.10 olipro (hard SPL ver 7). I wouldnt bother upgrading to Hard SPL ver 9 a this is essentially only ver 7 with some neat features for developers but it does throw up an error message when you finish flashing a rom(no problems t just feels like it).
Hard SPL WON'T stop you from bricking your phone BUT it will make it easier to recover.
roomtek*8525, sorry to hear that but have you tried flashing with a cooked rom? This unfortunately wont fix the phone part but you will have a working PDA...If you've tried MTTY with info 8 and task 2a commands then thats the best to hope for, Sorry bout that..
hi to all...
i have a trinity in my hands that i had to change lcd...
after i change lcd i tested and seems to be working well..
but it wasn't... the first problem i saw that was when i turn on,it freezes at menu after about 1minute...
after some searches, i've flashed with olipro 1.20 (till here is fine), and then upgrade radio..no luck, because when i tried to do that, it won't pass from 0% at any time and any version of radio
after that i tried to upgrade the rom;but one note,every time i made the 3 color "trick", the olipro 1.20 disappear and i have to flash it again (i don't know if it is normal or not).
finaly, when i try to flash the rom, it freezes at 13%, in all times i tried
i don't know what to do more, if anyone have any ideia, i'll apreciate a lot some help..
many thanks in advance for the patience...
best regards
Have you SIM/CID unlocked it?
no,but if i install olipro, does it needed to unlock to flash the phone?
regards
i tried now to unlock...
but it seems that in both unlock methods,the phone should turn on wich is not the case
Try entering bootloader mode and flashing back an original rom, depending on your device. When successful, your device will boot normally and then you will be able to SIM/CID unlock it and follow the guides from here
http://trinityguides.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=66
thank you for your reply...
one of the problems is that i don't know wich was the original rom...
now i'm trying the many roms i can..
is there any method to know what was the original rom?
regards
Isn't it branded? O2, Vodaphone, HTC?
Check the shipped roms http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Upgrades
yes,is an htc...
one of the roms i tried, i could flash to the end (one of cooked one wma 6.1).
but the problem remains, when reaches the wma logo, it freezes
any sugestion?
regards
Try an official HTC rom
http://rapidshare.com/files/2296300...1_1_.23.405.2_103_6275_1.38.00.11_108_GPS.exe
thanks for the rom, but is the second one that freezes at 13% when installing
any more ideas?
regards
The only other thing I can think of, is that you have a bad SPL. Try the splxploit, see if something comes out. After the SPLXPLOIT, flash again Olipro's 1.20 and if everything goes well, try flashing a 6.1 rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308691
i did that already :/
my thought is that the problem is in the flash memory..
i'll try to give hot air in the flash to see if solve the problem because i think is not software problem..
thanks for the help of you
That's what we are here for, isn't it? To help each other. It's a shame it didn't work. Hope you get it sorted.
hey guys.. i need some help
i installed an app an asked me to restart the device.. i did
and now it's stuck on the splash screen
IPL 2.27
SPL 2.27
GSM 02.44.11
OS 2.27.1.1
and the orange brand wallpaper
what can i do? i tried to reset it and format it
but an error shows up
"Press Send to restore factory default,
Other keys to quit"
ok.. send it is
"Format FAT Partition
Format failed"
i can enter RGB bootloader (cam button+power), but i don't know what i can do??
ps: i just got it from a friend, i don't think my phone is cid-unlocked..
and i'm stuck at the splash screen and nothing to do
please help me.. tell me what can i do
Ouch.
Sounds like the built-in flash memory is bad. I'm not sure what you can do about that, short of replacing it.
No offense Reverend, but where did you hear that? Its just bad flash man! Simply enter the bootloader mode, and re-flash a new rom to your device. What program where you trying to install?

something from a pocket freeware site.. "XDA-Team_Manilla2D.CAB"
it's a touchflo 2d app for today screen.. after installing it, the sistem wouldn't boot up anymore. so i tried to format, soft reset, to restore the system..
the formatting started and then gave an error and shut down immediately. i didn't even catch a glimps of that error 'cause it restarted.. and then the problem. it won't go past the operator splash screen
tried to reformat.. would't start.. format failure
..simply wow.. don't get me wrong , but i didn't knew there was a bootloader screen until this happened.. i dug up about this problem on the forum, but i can't solve it.. i don't know that much about flashing.. isn't the wizard supposed to be cid-unlocked to be able to flash it with a new rom?
or there's a rom that doesn't require the pda to be unlocked?.. cause' i think mine isn't. and, since i can't get it to boot up the os, i can't cid-unlock it after the tutorials i've found here..
and i don't want to bury it, yet
Oh you poor sole...that program that you tried to flash is notorious...I did the very same thing to mine just the other day. It doesnt work with the Wizard yet for some reason.
Now, onto your problem, yes-I think that your Wizard IS INDEED CID locked, and if that is the case, search for the Wizard LOVE ROM and flash it. It can be flashed with a CID unlocked device. Head into your bootloader mode, then start up the RUU flashing program on your PC that is included with the ROM. After it flashes, you can use the Wizard Service Tool, which is also availible via searching to CID and SIM unlock your device, and then you can put any ROM that you like onto it. I hope that helps somewhat!
If you can get it into bootloader mode, you can recover. If the phone is not unlocked, you will have to load the original service ROM for that phone.
You MIGHT get lucky by just flashing the IPL/SPL back though, now that I think about it...look at the "How to Remove HardSPL" thread for the most popular IPL/SPL sets. If this works, you won't have to put all of your custom settings and programs back on.
Myrddin Wyllt
Plz note all the IP/SPL posted in the thread 'How To Remove HardSPL' are for G4 devices and they are not meant to be flashed to a G3 device,if flashed will certainly 'Brick' the G3 device.
Whereas,here ,he has a G3 device with IPL/SPL 2.27,flashing those IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) means instant death of the phone.
koolariz
Simply,download the official stock rom of the carrier and flash it in Bootloader mode to recover back to its default status,than downgrade to IPL/SPL 1.xx to CID unlock the phone,how to CID unlock the phone, read and follow this guide carefully :-

If you have said the truth... you've got a G3 device cause your ipl spl are 2.27.
So try to install this original ROM... is for Tmobile WWE so try it.... http://rapidshare.com/files/38880130/ruu_prodigy_226102_22610105_022511_tmous_wwe_ship.exe.html
Or search on tutorials tu unlock and upgrade the wizard Love ok?
Good luck men...
And please please please read and ask before do anything, BTW now the only you can do is to runn this ROMs cause you cant get your original carriers ROM.
If this dont works... please read the thread from upgrading forum in this wizard subforum that said something like Stuck on splash screen solution DYI or something the tuttorial DEV is called Drug_store.

i tried the O2 rom [12.18.3.103] u gave me. it doesn't start flashing.. 0% and then
quoting:ERROR "This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer NBF file."
ps: The orange one on the xda ftp server doesn't work .. it's archived and parts are missing..
Hmmm,ok,lets try this out,download 'Button's Rom 1.05' from the link posted below and check if this works out.
Otherwise,you'll have to look for official Stock Rom (Romanian),which was running on the phone before.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...0for newbies
i'll try this one.. for now.. ps:your link is broken?
i just have another question.. i have a friend with the same wizard as mine, i mean in the same carrier.. is it possible cu get his rom? to dump it on SD card.. or something?
so that i may flash that rom?
LE:
i found another thing on a DIY
If you got IPL/SPL 1.xx go to G3.3. If you got 2.xx go to G3.4
G3.3 Download button rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.
G3.4 Download wizard_love rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.

should i try the wizard_love rom?
ok,download Button's Rom 1.05 from here:-
http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.html
also try this one :-
xda_miniS_LaunchRom
http://rapidshare.com/files/43423464/Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102.exe
and yes! you can also try Wizard_Love _Rom.
Now,its possible to back up the rom from your friend's phone,but it also have to be CID unlocked first and your device shud also be CID unlocked to flash it from the sdcard (MTTY) method.
pfff (
i've updated the rom with the Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2 and now i have a blue sci-fi splash screen with "AKU 2.3" in the top-right corner..

SPL 2.27
GSM 02.25.11
OS 2.26.10.2
same ****
won't boot up
and if i try to format, same error.. Format Failed.. so here i am again
hmmmm,try a Hard Reset,hope it works or try other roms I have posted above.
Do you have any sdcard inserted in the phone right now,take it out before flashing any rom.

dude.. that's what i've been trying hard reseting it.. and i get the same error each time i try it "Format Failed"
no sd inserted.. i took it out a while ago.. cause i read on the forum to flash without it.
i begining to get desperate over here
i'll try other roms..
what else can i do than hope this works
Also take out if any sdcard or mini sd is inserted in the phone before flashing,it also causes this Format Failed problem.

Have you got a Herald or a T-Mobile Wing? If you have a Wing, just go into bootloader and install the T-Mobile ROM. Seems to me like you didn't HardSPL before you tried to upgrade. If you have a Herald then I am not sure what to tell you to be honest:/

You should be able to flash while being in that mode.
Connect the phone through USB, and try flashing again. Try flashing to a different ROM, if necessary.
Well i have a HTC P4350 so i guess it Herald. well and yes i didnt Hardspl it's my bad was just too happy that i could update to the coustomised roms that u briliant guys are making here, but i have flashed like so many roms wm 6.1 to now adays the latest wm 6.5.1. but this never really happened. yes i am able to start the RUU it checks the device the when i click update it goes to either 2% or 3% and thats it gives me the image corrupt error.

Yea, it means that you're trying to flash a ROM that requires you to be HardSPLed and flashed through SD Card, since the .NBH file is too small to be flashed through PC.
Either HardSPL your phone and follow the instructions for flashing through SD, OR find another ROM that doesn't require you to flash through SD card.
i have tride many roms but they r doing the go to 1 or 2 percent and the device resets. i will be really thankfull if you can tell me which rom to use exactly
Is it possible to unlock the device (MDA Compact III) if all I get is the bootscreen with IPL, SPL etc numbers? I tried soft and hard reset and all that stuff I could find here, but none of those helps... I would like to try to flash it, but haven't unlocked it yet so I'm afraid I would brick the device.
All that remains is the three-colored loader, which I can enter without problems.
Any help would be apreshiated...

Hi!
You have to read CID with MTTY and find the proper ROM to flash it back to life or you need to make a Goldcard with another WM device and put it to your device and flash it with an official ROM.
BR
Scootie
So far I have seen posts only about getting the original ROM and flash my MDA with it. Well, since I haven't been able to get the original ROM for my device, I'm trying to cook my own ROM with the same parameters the original ROM should have. So far no success....
In case anyone has T-Mobile Sk original ROM and could share it... It would make me really happy
How to read CID with MTTY ?
Thanx !
Hmmm yeah, i am also trying to Unlock CID of my T Mobile MDA Compact-III and then i will flash it later with WM6 ROM. Being a total novice in this field, i am going through all the posts to figure out how to unlock CID.
And i also could not find original ROM of ma device. The links in the forum are of some tm-phonedownloads, but his site is offline for a long time i guess.
Any ways if u get any luck then pls post here as well.
