Downgrade from WM 6.5 to 6.1 - Touch HD General

Hello
I bought a second hand phone and I want to downgrade it to 6.1 to get rid of all the rubbish that seems to be on there.
My real problem is that it won't sync via activesync 4.5 - it connects but then hangs on "looking for changes" and I am sure it is something to do with the software.
I have hard reset on seveal occasions now and reinstalled activesync several times too.
I have removed the sd card and other small thing I have found on the net to do but nothing seems to get it going.
Can anyone help me?
I know I have to do some flashing but I have never done that.
Please help!!!

if you want to downgrade it, just download a rom from htc's website, get your phone into bootloader mode, connect to pc, wait for the "usb" message to appear at the bottom, and flash the rom.
(only follow onscreen instructions and the process is simple.)
if you dont know how to get into bootloader, there are videos at youtube and guides in the forum.
hope this helps,
Eyal.

Why ActiveSync always disconnects the BA while upgrading to the new ROM.

I have upgraded from WM2003SE to WM6 (the first released from XPlode version OS 5.2.1620 build 18125.0.4.2) without any problem. Now I want to upgrade from that version to the current release, but the ActiveSync (I am using 4.5) always disconnect after MaUpgradeUT_noID has detected the previous installed OS. So I got an error message like "cannot to the device" or so. It happens everytime even I just try to upgrade the Radio rom.
I have also tried to use ActiveSync to version 3.8 (I found this suggestion from this web site) but bad luck it can't detect my BA device at all. I have also tried to revert back to WM2003SE but still get the same problem. My system is WinXP SP2 & O2 IIs. So Please help I am in the dark right now.
Same problem here...

Have tried that already but still get the same error. I have even reformatted my PC and reinstalled WinXP and ActiveSync 4.5 just in case there are viruses or so but also get no luck.
Did you soft (or hard) reset your BA and reboot your PC after failure? (Try clean upgrade, and in bootloader).
Did you (succesfully) establish an ActiveSync partnership before upgrading?
Did you try unchecking Enable advance network functionality in USB to PC (under settings, connections)?
Did you soft (or hard) reset your BA and reboot your PC after failure? (Try clean upgrade, and in bootloader).
Yes, at this time you asked me. Nothing changed.
Did you (succesfully) establish an ActiveSync partnership before upgrading?
Yes.
Did you try unchecking Enable advance network functionality in USB to PC (under settings, connections)?
Yes. I did it.
More over, if I started BootLoader mode before execute MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe the program get struck while performs device information checking, I have to pull it out from Sync station the program then continue running but without any information (like the existing OS version etc.)
how long did you wait for the program to respond before you find that its stuck ?
Here it takes about 2 min to find the device
Proper upgrading procedure, as it was said 10000's of times
1.put your device in bootloader mode
2. place it to cradle
3. kill activesync (optional - if you dont do it the upgrade utility will do it for you, but sometimes activesync stays on and fail the upgrade process)
4. start upgrade utility and follow the onscreen instructions
5. perform hard reset (the three options thing)
thats all

It was about 5 min and the program still had no responses. I then have to pull it out and the program continue running but without any information (like I had mentioned it before).

Unfortunately not with mine.

3. kill activesync (optional - if you dont do it the upgrade utility will do it for you, but sometimes activesync stays on and fail the upgrade process)
I have tried it both with and without killing the activesync.
4. start upgrade utility and follow the onscreen instructions
Yes, but once I started the upgrade I have noticed that the activesynce has disconnected my device.
5. perform hard reset (the three options thing)
I didn't have chance to go to this point.
thats all
I think the main problem is the activesync has disconnected my device suddenly when started the utility. I have also tried to take out anythings that using USB port like mouse, ext. DVD, printer, scanner just in case the upgrade utility may conflicts with those devices.
I think I shall try to change the PC to upgrade my device to make sure that it wasn't caused from hardware defection.

With regard to your last remark: you stated earlier you did a fresh reinstall of XP. Now, why would you install and connect all these peripherals if you only want to upgrade your BA rom??? All you need is a fresh WinXP and ActiveSync...
Did you really do a fresh install and follow the wiki and the tips mentioned again (and again)?
You are getting me (and probably all of us) confused.
Your answers to especially points 4 and 5 of xplode tips to me clearly indicate that you do not really take (enough) time to understand the procedures (or what you are doing) and want to have WM6 running asap with no effort at all...
Your remark "I think the main problem is the activesync has disconnected my device suddenly when started the utility" only confirms this as this is the whole point of boatloader and was furthermore indicated it would do exactly so by xplode earlier on.
Please do take time and hence show consideration to all of us that are trying to help you in preparing yourself properly before trying to attempt any further upgrade.
Good luck!

First of all, Sorry if I make you and other confused. I have began to unsuccessfully upgrade my device since Friday. So I decided to help myself at first by try to do everything I can do by myself. I have formatted PC HDD and also reinstalled activesync because I thought the utility may conflict with other program on my PC or from Viruses. I have also tried many ways with hard reset and cold reset etc. to upgrade my device but have no luck. That was with very fresh new installed WinXP PC. Unfortunately, I have to use this computer for my job also. So that's why I have to install printer & scanner driver including MS Office, AutoCAD and other necessary program to serve my job . I have falled with upgrading but I do not want to have problem with my job. Hope you understand my essential.
Your answers to especially points 4 and 5 of xplode tips to me clearly indicate that you do not really take (enough) time to understand the procedures (or what you are doing) and want to have WM6 running asap with no effort at all...
Since I began to upgrading and everytime I have executed the utility I have always wait & wait but I just never look at the clock to see how long I have waited. Xplode has just warned me to take enough time so I started to upgrading but with clock at this time. I have already mentioned that I have successfully upgrade from WM2003SE to the WM6 (previous version) so as a user I have enough experience and know what I am doing.
Your remark "I think the main problem is the activesync has disconnected my device suddenly when started the utility" only confirms this as this is the whole point of boatloader and was furthermore indicated it would do exactly so by xplode earlier on.
This is just my opinion to let you guy see and understand the problem. That's it.
Please do take time and hence show consideration to all of us that are trying to help you in preparing yourself properly before trying to attempt any further upgrade.
I think I have already put a lot of effort about upgradind my device. I have reformatted and reinstalled all necessary programs. It took me out almost half a day to do this. And not only with my PC I have also reinstalled all programs on my device with an old OS version since I have lost them all from hard reset. Other than that I have also tried & tested upgrading the device during the time. The only word I can say that It was not funny to do all of this. It was not really a hard job but it took almost my weekend time.
Good luck!
Yes I do need it barely. Actually I have already felt a little lucky got from all of you that try help me solving the problem. Thanks.
su2003, nice answer.
His main problem is that he does not understand that activSync will work if the device is in a normal state but when device goes to bootlogger mode, its only USB connection that will help a PC to talk to Device and not activSync.

Thanks for your additional.
I have also tried using different PC to upgrade the OS but got the same result.
you have to be sure that your BA when cradled display USB (after getting into bootloader mode) instead of serial 2.06 than run the upgrade utility
I am quite sure that the screen has displayed USB but the number is 2.07 not 2.06. I am not sure about the meaning of the number, it could be the version.
I have also brought a new USB-XDA IIs cable yesterday, just in case the cardle was defected but it doesn't work also, I have got the same result.

I am quite sure that the screen shown USB 2.07 (should be differ version than your).
I have also brought a new USB-XDA IIs sync cable but getting the same result.
Conclusion:
Bad Hardware(Flash ROM)?
Your Bootloader is toasted or had it's LAST flash of it's lifetime???
We can say that... but hopefully not for your sake.
Because as you have said you've done EVERYTHING that was posted.
and though our Senior's "inputs" didnt worked out the way it SHOULD work.
I cant say it's a waste of time to answer your questions.
But there are no more questions to ASK
and there are no more questions to ANSWER
They're all been said here.
All you have to do is PRAY HARD leave the BA rest for a day...
remove the battery...
think things out, clear your mind... sleep...
then execute Xplode's Walkthrough from Step 1 the next day.
but be sure to have the battery fully charged.
Your BA is not dead and your bootloader is not toast. The only problem you have is probably you are impatient. Go to the Wiki and follow the procedure exactly as it is written. It will work. By the way, if you kill Activesync (ie disable USB connection in activesync connection setting), put your device in bootloader mode and connect your usb cable (in that order), run the upgrade and it will work. Forget about activesync.

I use xda IIs and the bootloader mode shows ver 2.07, and i dont have any probs installing. I dont think the version 2.07 has got something to do with your problem.
You said that you tried other pc and it doesnt work, and it worked before when you upgraded previously. I think you know enuf about upgrading if you have done it before....
did you have problem with sync connection before? I was just thinking maybe there is something wrong with your BA....like actual hardware problem with the cable connection??
what about firewall? would it affect it - I doubt it cause its not in sync mode.... but at this stage, maybe just try all possibilities to try to get it working.
Good luck
Mhm. I'm not sure I've really followed all the intricacies of this case ... But whatever, here's my two cents for a safe upgrading procecedure:
1) use a cradle, not a USB cable, and make sure the cradle's
power supply is plugged into a wall outlet. It also helps to make
sure the cradle is plugged directly into the PC, not via any kind of
USB hub. No other devices should be connected to that same USB
channel. I suppose temporarily disconnecting other (unneeded) USB
devices from the computer can't hurt, either.
2) I guess "kill ActiveSync" can mean various things ...
however, here's the best way to do it I think: as sofene mentioned,
disable USB connections (what the hell - disable ALL connections) in
ActiveSync settings. Then reboot the PC. No need to look for ActiveSync
processes and kill them manually -- disabling the connections will take
care of that. Rebooting ensures that ActiveSync's driver code is really
unloaded.
3) remove SD card and, for good measure, SIM card from the BA.
4) perhaps soft (or even hard) reset your device
5) put device in Bootloader mode
6) insert device in cradle, start upgrade utility, off you go ...
By the way, ActiveSync has got nothing to do with the ROM upgrade utility, and it should therefore not have been necessary to re-install ActiveSync, etc. You just have to make sure it does not get in the way of the upgrade process. As far as I understand the process, the ROM upgrade should work equally well on a PC that does not even have ActiveSync installed.

Cincular 8525 stuck in Bootloader

I have a Cingular 8525 running WM5 that is stuck in bootloader screen. I have tried to soft and hard reset ... just boots back to the same screen, I can't turn it off once in the screen and when i sync via usb to the pc i get the message that the "usb device that is connected is malfunctioning" I have not done any upgrading at all and the phone worked perfectly right up till the time i powered it down and restarted into the bootloader screen.
Please can someone out there help me with this issue?

Manage to solve the problem ...thanks WIKI !!
Go to Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus
Then Flash to any ROM you want !!
Thanks .... But
Thanks for the reply ... but i have no idea how to do what you tell me, I am new to all this phone "stuff" as a matter of fact this is the first time that i am ever using one of these forums. I have read till i am cross eyed but dont actually understand what you are talking about ... now don't let that scare you away as i am willing to learn and i am not braindead ... you all had to start sometime in this, not so. I get that i need to try and reflash my rom...
so is there some type of rom update software that i need? ... what is a hard SPL?? ... and who is Schaps?? .. sorry guys to do this to you but i would like to get into this game and i need some ( well maybe a lot ) of pointers.
Thanks for your time.
1. Search for "mr vanxs guide" so you have an idea on what you're doing.
2. OK, as Asfarizal said "Go to Bootloader mode: Hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus". If you cant work out what the buttons are, go to the manual. it will tell you.
3. type in "hard SPL" in search on the forum & download the .zip or .rar file. this should have 2 files inside when opened,
a). RUUWrapper.exe and
b). RUU_signed.nbh
sync Hermes and double click .exe file. follow prompts.
4. find a rom that you want (would suggest TNT SE as a fairly good rom for noobs... good and stable, no problems...) Again download, then (and this is personel preference) format an sd card fat 32 and copy RUU_signed.nbh into root directory. Rename it Hermimg.nbh. Put into Phone and put into bootloader(make sure the battery is more than 50%) follow prompts. This should get you out of trouble. You can also sync your Phone and double click on the RUUWrapper.exe HOWEVER, if you should reset your computer, pull out the usb cable or have anything else happen to the computer that interrupts the flashm, you could end up with a worse brick than you have now. try to read up on flashing (search for "mr vanxs guide") and this should help you a lot if you have other questions. Good luck and happy flashing......
Thank You
I will follow the instructions you gave and try to get it going this weekend.
Thank you so much for your time

Looks like you've got a lot of reading to do, and a problem to sort out. Firstly a couple of answers...
Schaps is a Rom Cooking guru (makes custom versions of WM5, WM6 etc). When you get your phone sorted out I'd recommend trying one of his roms.
Hard SPL. The SPL is part of the bootloader which effectively dictates how a rom is flashed and what roms can be flashed. HardSPL is a custom version of this which allows you to flash any rom from any carrier. It also protects against a bad flash in many cases. It is recommended before you try flashing any new roms or radio roms. Use Hard-SPL-V7 at the bottom of the first post here.
The Rom upgrading software is contained in any of the cooked or carrier supplied roms. It is normally a .zip file which cotains 2 files: xxxxxRUU.exe and RUU_signed.nbh. You run the .exe file from your PC when connected to your phone via USB. More details of how to do this are in MrVanx's guides. Also other resources here.
Now to try to sort your phone out...
What is displayed on your screen when in bootloader mode? It should be something like this:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.10.Olipro (This is HardSPL V7)
If you don't have an Olipro SPL then you need to get HardSPL onto your phone. If you haven't done any upgrading and have had the phone from new then I guess you don't have hardSPL.
Now you need to fix your USB Malfunctioning problem. I can't help too much here except to suggest trying a different cable, different USB port or different PC. Also, if you are running Vista try an XP maxhine. When you connect to the PC does your phone show Serial or USB on the screen? If you can't get a USB connection, all is not lost - you can re-flash your rom using an SD card, method here.
There is a thread about un-bricking phones which may help.
There are various diagnostic tools (which can also screw your phone if used incorrectly). The favourite of these is MTTY but you need a USB connection to use this.
If your phone is in warranty I'd recommend getting your supplier to sort it out, but if not I'd try to re-flash an ORIGINAL supplier rom (Cingular I guess). You can get links to the official supplier roms here.
I think (might be wrong) that sometimes when stuck in bootloader you need to flash an official rom, not a cooked one to recover your phone - then you can run HardSPL and then flash cooked roms again.
Cingular 8525 stuck in bootloader
Thanks for the reply ... lots of great input.
Now to answer some of your questions.
1) When I power up the phone (only pushing the power button ) it goes straight into the bootloader screen without pushing any other buttons, and it displays
HERM100
IPL-1.01
HERM100
SPL-1.06
Then at the bottom in the white bar it says "Serial"
The only way that i have found to power it down again is to remove the battery, there is no response from any single buttons after it is in bootloader
the soft reset and hard reset work but it just goes right back to the bootloader screen after.
2) The USB malfunction. This only started after the phone "crashed" and before that it worked great ... well i only used it to sync up to my work pc for the contacts and to get pictures onto my hard drive.
all the PC's that i use are running XP. I have tried my home PC and my Laptop
and the work PC and all of them have their own cables and they all say the same thing ... "the USB device is malfunctioning"
I am sure that when i get the phone going again the USB will start to function again.
3) Phone warranty ... I bought the phone off e-bay from a store in new york about 10 months ago as a "new unlocked cingular 8525" it was new and unlocked, but i have no idea how they unlocked it. I would assume that there would be no warranty now and in any case i live in Canada and would have to ship it down to the states to an AT&T repair center and that sounds like a nightmare to me with the customs and so on.
I will give you a little more background on the problem. the phone worked like a charm without any problems at all for the 10 months that i had it, then the morning of the crash the phones alarm did not go off in the morning and i was almost late for work ... i did not pay it any further attention untill at 3:26pm
that afternoon the alarm went off ??????? (it was set for 6:05am) so i checked the main clock time, it was right. I then checked the alarm time, it was right ??? So i figured that something must have just got confused, so i powered down the phone with the power button to just restart it and while it was powered down i removed the battery to take the oportunity to to clean all those fuzzies and dust that collect in the battery compartment out and put it all together and powered it up again (just by pushing the power button) and this wierd red, green, blue and white screen appeared and that is all that i have seen since ???
I hope that answers your questions and i will start going through the links that you sent and get to reading ... will there be a pop quiz ... lol
Thanks again for your time and i very much appreciate all the time that all of you have spent on me and my phone ..... I know that you all just feel bad for me because i now have to use a Motorolla V551 ... lol
Great Work

PLEASE help me
tell me which it the right rom to chose? step by step procedure..
how to rectify imei?
thanks and regards
kirtibas
kirtibas, sorry it took so long to reply, 1st thing I'd do is upgrade to SPL 2.10 olipro. This is safer to use than others. then I'd suggest reflashing a stock rom to see if that works. After stock rom works then use a cooked rom as your heart desires... Cheers...

plz help

My heads spinning from all the information aka post and threads, but im still stuck like my wizard on the 2nd splash screen.
I wasnt trying to upgrade the rom jst clear storage but after everything ive read i would like to upgrade to wm6 but first i want to get my wizard working.
I tried backing up the rom to the sd card but I get "You didn't get the proper security level to download a specific image" So i take it my wizard is cid locked.
My IPL:1.01 and SPL:1.06 does that mean its a g3. My activesync 4.5 doesnt pick up my wizard is it because it cant boot, i tried with it in bootloader mode still doesnt pick it up.
So plz point me in the right direction to fix my wizard
ok i think the place where im stuck at is cid unlocking my wizard with out using that imei site. any help or is there another way to do this.
This helped me when I was stuck on the first screen. For some reason, the Radio file was gone. Follow this exactly, it works. In my case (sounds like yours also), at the end of this you will at least have access to the phone again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276963&highlight=bootloader
After your done. You will have a RGB screen, then follow these directions to load a base rom and unlock so you can keep going until you ca load WM6.1.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
I've had many, many problems over the last 3 days trying to do this. I completed it all in less than a day, but when I used the phone it had terrible reception. I completely downgraded everything back to square one. Still bad phone reception. I was about to through it out the window, when someone called my wife's cell phone and she also had bad reception. I then put my sim in another phone, same problem. Well, at&t has a tower down for the last 3 days. What timing, it seems to work when not at home, but hard to test that way Anyway, moral of the story is. Don't give up, keep plugging along.
Good luck.
I'm pretty sure imei checker is for SIM unlocking.
For G3 CID unlocking and upgrading read the stickies in http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=289
If you can start your Wizard in bootloader, and it says "usb" in the lower-left, you can flash your original ROM. An active sync connection is not needed. Search for your carrier's ROM if you don't have it and I'd recommend the "no carrier ID" version of the RUU.
Have you tried a 'Hard Reset',hope it'll work,if it boots up into working OS and it already has IPL/SPL 1.xx,use lokiwiz02b tool to SIM/CID unlock the phone and than upgrade.
If it doesn't work still after Hard Reset,most probably,its Extended_Rom is corrupted,its required to reflash a new rom.
Activesync doesn't work in absence of a working OS and in Bootloaders mode.Its not required for flashing a rom.Just get the phone into Bootloaders and hook the phone with pc via usb cable and watch small usb appear at the bottom of the bootloader screen,if its there,it good to go and flash the rom.
ok so i downloaded the button rom finally but how do i flash it to my wizard.
Get your phone in Bootloaders,hook up the phone with pc via usb,watch small usb appear at the bottom of the Bootloader screen,if its there run the 'RUU' application,it'll start to flash,it stops at a certain percentage,don't get worried and do anything,after a couple of minutes it starts again,let it complete 100%,the phone'll restart and boot up in new OS.
which ruu application. I jst downloaded 1 which comes in the form of a rar file saying ruuwrapper. is that the right 1
So after lots and lots and lots more reading i realized i dont need a ruu. all i need to do is get into bootloader mode plug in the usb and run the wizard button rom. It worked perfectly my wizard is back to life yip pee.

I need help with my I-mate JasJam..PLEASE :(

Sorry, i know there so many posts about this problem, but i can't understand it very well, sorry for that.
Here's my problem:
The JasJam that i have says "No GSM", so i tried to fix it, i searched the net for possible solutions, so luckily i found one, well i thought that was the answer, unfortunately i think i downloaded SPL version 7 (which i think is not the right thing to do) then when i was upgrading it, "tricolour bootloader" appears, and then next screen was loading and it is 0%.. then the ERROR #somethng appear, and it stucked on the tricolour bootloader, i tried to fix it again, i tried to upgrade the ROM, SPL, and all because im so hopeless already. Next problem is ActiveSync 4.5 can't detect the jasjam, i tried everything, different PC, laptop and different USB cable as well, i update its .NET framework also, but still there's no connection..
Please HeLp!
I need it badly, please do it step by step, i really really need it please
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Resettin help/issue

Gone through the various help threads on rebooting, resetting etc.. Battery is charged, m/card and sim have been removed..
Phone is at the boot loader stage - reads Upgrade ROM code error - have the USB plugged in and can see the USB writing on the white part of the red,green,blue,white screen but pc refuses to make a connection.. keeps saying activsync not connected or busy..
Have tried rebooting the phone and also the pc, changed cables, changed USB port.. no joy..
Any suggestions appreciated..
not sure what you want...but you have certainly described the situation really well.
i understand that your device is in the bootloader (thats the multi-color screen). i understand that "USB" is written at the bottom of the bootloader screen. i understand that you have removed all the cards.
what i don't understand is what you want help with? why are you trying to establish an activesync connection? activesync will obviously NOT connect if you are in the bootloader because the bootloader isn't the same as windows. windows mobile must be running if you want a full activesync connection.
so what exactly are you looking for? do you want to flash a ROM or radio ROM or some such? are you simply trying to "hard reset" your device? details please!
yea, dont be confused by posts that say 'when connected to active sync, blahblahblah', they dont really mean activesync the program, they simply mean a usb connection. The fact that it says USB on the white part means you can now run your rom flash,.
ok.. what I am trying to do is re-flash the ROM.. I had a flashed ROM on there and I was just going to upgrade it to the latest one (Laurentius26 GoldEdition V3.4 Stock/Spikeā„¢ WWE 23568) and about 20% of the way through it froze and then I get a recovery screen come up.. followed the instructions and started to flash again and the same thing happened.
In both cases it seems as if the USB connection was dropped even though there was nothing else happing on the pc at the time.. now when I try to re-flash, no US connection is being established.
Well I left everything disconnected last night and tried again this morning. We have got a connection now but the re-flash has failed again so I shall just go back to the old ROM.. thanks for you all's input.
probably a bad ROM download. I would try to download again and if that doesn't fix it, let the ROM cooker know that he probably has a bad upload of the ROM.
