Hi. I've got t-mobile branded HTC Touch2. I got through HardSPL FAQ, made backup and started to flash my phone. The main problem was the language (formely german) which I'm still trying to change to English or more preferably - Polish. When I eventually managed to do HardSPL (which involved playing with OEM_FLASHDRV.dll), I downloaded ROM_Mega_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_1-28-479-4 from sunnysoft site and succesfully flashed it. I ignored the warning about limitation to PN: 99HJZ022-00 because I've earlier read people successfully flashed that rom on many different PN's. Mine is actually P/N : 99HJZ057-00.
When I installed language localization patch I ended up looping at "Windows" logo - the progress bar goes to 100% and starts back from 0%. I've tried to hard reset many times, tried with booting it up on and on with no result. One time it popped up with and error box saying the software I installed did not match the rom I have. Weird since it came from sunnysoft site. I've tried downloading it again to exclude a CRC error and flashing itself goes perfectly well.
I'm using English for now, but I'd be nice to have polish xT9.
What goes wrong ? Does sunnysoft patch really work only on this specific P/N ? Is it worth the hassle or am I stuck with branded t-mobile ? This is my first PDA but I also have an option to get some HTC with android. Any solutions?

Hi Guys,
Over the last 4 days I have been reading the posts and trying all sorts of possibilites to fix my Mini O2...
I did the stupidity of upgrading it without a back up. I bought a german O2. I live in Germany, but guess what I don't speak german. So, either I waited 10 years until I can, or updated it to english.
It all went wrong... nevertheless, I manage to download the qtek and used the no id software to upgrade it. it goes well, radio, ext rom, but when updating the rom - when it gets to half way, the program says there was a problem in upgrading the rom. Maybe some german configuration problem?
Can you guys guide me please? thanks a lot!!
I sorted it out.
Thanks for all those who took the time to look at it. Somehow mx Mini is crazy. What I did in the end was uploading each batch at time. Started with the Rom itself, thereafter the ext Rom and last the radio. I did that by extracting the whole package to a folder and removing/returing the parts I wanted at time. So now I have a full english version in my German O2.
Re flashing phone with wwe rom
What you need is to go into boot up mode on comapct i.e black screen with usb and seriel showing only. then you need to get with Maupgrade patch file and then you can bypass security issues on phone and re flash to wwe roms i.e qtek or i mate jam. Hope this helps everything you need is on this site.p.s remember to unzip the wwe file to get the 7 files and replace patch there before updating. 8)

Hi
My alpine had been upgraded to 02's new rom which took the radio back to 1.0. I don't use the Blackberry functionality so decided to try Pug's update. I also hate all the 02 stuff (no longer with them anyway) but after following the readme and forum comments to the letter the upgrade - using Alpine_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped.rar hung at the radio update bit - every time and I tried loads.
I then decided to reinstall the the 02 (my-xda site) update which also didn't work. I've now tried putting the alpine into bootloader mode and trying the upgrade with three of the files Pug kindly put up. I've rebooted my pc between, tried everything I can think of several times, each time only trying something different after trying the same way more than once and I am left with a PDA with a blank screen which only reads USB v1.01.
Sorry, additional info. I don't have to use Task Manager to end the process as I get this error which allows me to exit:
Error 114: Radio Rom Update Error.
I used Winrar (new beta version) to extract the .rar file(s).
Does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.

It's probably OK!
Still - don't panic - you should have found out by now that if you do a reset it will load all the original ROM info and you should be back where you started.
I suggest you read through all the posts in pugs ROM thread. In there you will find a reply from christoperwoods pointing to a patched installer located at :
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe
Follow the instructions and you should be OK.
After the reset try the ROM upgrade again. As long as you have external power (and I would strongly recommend using the mains adapter as USB power is not as reliable as you may think) throughout the upgrade - which takes 20-30 mins in total - you should be OK.
I would be interested in what you think of it - I actually went from the ROM version you are trying to load to the O2 .171 ROM upgrade yesterday as I was having problems with GPS connectivity on the pug ROM. I know the radio stack is only 1.00 - but it works for me.

XDA Radio upgrade hang prob.
Huge thanks for responding, Phil. Unfortunately no amount of resetting, either normally or bootloader mode has worked.
I had read through all Pugs' threads, but took your suggestion on board and re-read in case I had missed something. I also tried the alternative patched installer you mentioned - to no avail.
I've had a chat with an XDA repair house now and we think it may be a problem with the connectors, but even if it isn't I am dropping the pda into them as I have a very limited timeframe to get a fix done (it's Friday and I leave the country on Tuesday!!). A suggestion has been made of using something called jafwm (I think that's what it was) to reload the system but you need a dongle to complete the process.
I'm interested in your comment about the gps side of things as well, as this is one of the main uses for my pda (destinator) - along with reading books (ereader) and listening to books (audible).
Ideally I am looking to rid my XDA of all 02 specific stuff (except the battery monitor) and have the newest radio version as I have found 1.0 problematic.
Once I get back online again in New Zealand (where I am going on Tuesday 20/6) I will drop a reply to the forum about what truly ended up being the problem.
Anyway, once again thanks for the response and the helpful suggestions

Hi all,
Hoping someone could help me. My Dopod has been freezing on start-up and after doing countless hard resets i am stuck at the Windows Mobile splash screen!
I have connected it to my PC, but as Windows Mobile hasn't loaded, ActiveSync can't pick-up my Dopod. This means i cannot update or completely re-flash. Is there a way to do this without ActiveSync?
I am now stuck with a Dopod i cannot use. I have no idea what to do.
can you flash using SD card? have a search, im pretty sure that will work.
Or go through the Bricked thread
Are you sure you're doing hard resets and not soft resets? Generally when a freeze occurs, you would soft-reset.
If you have indeed been doing hard-resets, then you most likely have a hardware issue and there's not much anyone here can do to help that.
Have you updated your ROM in the past? If these freezes started after an update, then it may be a bad update, so you could either try flashing from microSD as suggested above, or boot into the bootloader as per instructions in the wiki and flash from there.
Thanks for your replies guys!
I have tried all that. My son knocked my usb cable from my Dopod whilst it was updating my ROM ... that was the cause of my Dopod current 'brick' state!
My bootloader is SPL-1.09, but i have noticed from here that the Dopod ROM that i require (for Hutchinson '3' - Australia) uses bootloader SPL-1.06. Is it true that i cannot down-grade from 1.09 to 1.06?
I ask this question as i get "Invalid Vendor ID" attempting to flash my Dopod with that ROM. When i don't get that, i get communication errors (Update Error) when attempting to run Hard-SPL-V7.
What could i be doing wrong?
Hey guys,
Think i have worked out that my CID is corrupt, therefore i can't flash any ROM even if i wanted to. I used mtty and after a bit of searching in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-291336.html) i found that the 'info 2' result i got (HTCSF kEØ(HTCE) meant my CID was corrupt.
Hopefully i haven't voided my warranty as i haven't attempted to flash any 3rd party ROMS, only the one on the Dopod website that was accidently stopped when my son tripped over the usb cable.
We shall soon find out!
Hi guys,
Recently I updated my XDA Orbit with the new WM6.1 Diamondish ROM. Everything went great until I tried to install the Oops 6.1 ROM. Before trying to install the Oops ROM I tried to unlock the CID just in case (with your Artemis_USPL tool)... Half way through the setup screen displayed an error saying "Connection error... Please check the USB connection...". Just to clarify I never managed to install the Oops file.
Then I tried to install the original XDA WM6 ROM but with no luck as I got the same error again. Then I tried to start the bootloader manually (by pressing the voice recorder button along with the Reset one) and instead of the usuall 3 colour screen I got a blank white one. Afterwards the phone froze and I had to reset it so that I can use it again.
I did a small search on your website but because I wasn't able to find another similar case I decided to start a new thread.
Currently my phone works perfectly fine with my previous Diamondish ROM, but I seems that I can't install anything else.
Could it be a corrupted bootloader? If so, how can I fix it?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in andance!!!
Take out your MicroSD card and then try and flash
You were right! Once I got my memory card off my phone, the bootloader started as usual. Cheers mate!!!
hi,
i've been trying to flash my htc titan (eternity x310E) , i have updated the rom using RUU,
i started by, following the steps in file DFT_HSPL_WP7SG1, after that when HSPL was set up, my phone restarted and got frozen on htc logo screen but i read a similar problem in a forum and the user had continued installation of DFT Eternity 24 langs Freedom V1 Pearl Edition after which the user stated his similar problem was solved.
so i also followed the same step. it got installed successfully but the starting screen problem persists. in an another forum it was stated that i need to update my radio by flashing this file "RUU_ETERNITY_Radio_Signed_17.5006.08.27_17.08.50.0 6.7z"
i checked this file in several locations and websites but everywhere its missing or no longer exists.
SO if this is the solution to my problem can you please tell me where i can find this file.
please help me as i am new to this and donot know much about this whole thing.
thank you
