I have a Siemens SX56, locked to AT&T.
I downloaded the new 1.1 ROM, (Jeff's courtesy)
and began the upgrade.
It started, My SX56 said "Upgrading It will take about 5 minutes...."
Then,
I got an error message on my computer about com ports not being available, it lost the active sync connection, and now my SX56 is hung on the same message: "Upgrading It will take about 5 minutes....."
Of course, I'm unable to connect back.
Any suggestions?
I'm trying to be able to use it with T-Mobile.
I was unable to get any results by pushing the hard/battery resets.
Thanks!
"COM ports not being available"... Are you using ActiveSync via serial cable or cradle?
If you really cannot connect anymore, I guess you have to use an SD-card and the bootloader method to get back to a working state. But do try to reset the device and restart Programme A., it may just pick up again. I've seen that happen here once.
Try doing a soft reset then put it back in the cradle, the upgrade should restart automatically.

Hi Alex,
The same thing happend to me.Could you solve this problem?
If yes,can you pls.tell me: [email protected]

Were or are you using a USB hub? If so that may be your problem. The SD Card method works very well and very reliably. No comms outside of the device. I found many times whenn trying to do file xfers to the XDA that for no reason in the middle of transferring a file the connection would be lost.
I haven't had this problem with 2003 and AS 3.7.
USB Problem
Hi Alex and Rat,
i got same problem also, after step 4 my XDA screen become white and hang, if you already solve this problem please send me how to fix it this problem to [email protected]. Do you know how to install wallaby bootloader also.
Hello everyone.
Im having serious trouble with my MDA i updated just yesterday. Somehow it hung up at 60%. Waited for about 15 Minutes but nothing happened. So restart, but MDA was dead.
I managed it ti load the CE and ROM with an SD from another MDA into the broken one. Went well, the device boots, after 15 minutes, but everything goes very slow.
So managed it to upload the cab file of the RSU on another SD, inserted it, executed, but at 1% it just fails to flash and want to restart the MDA.
I also tested the method someone mentioned with the autorun.exe, didnt help.
In the wallaby bootloader i saw that there is an option to Backup the GSM ROM to SD, but then it wants some kind of "PC Monitor". Thought it might be some kind of hyperterminal connection, but turned out not to be.
So, does anybody here have a clue what to do???
GSM ERROR
Hello there
I've suffered the same problem as many others did.
I suggest one final solution before giving up and believing it's a dead motherboard.
the solution I believe is:
1- Using a working XDA and through the bootloader click on contacts button to get to the flash menu then click on the option for copying rom and GSM to SD.
2- after complete copy use the same SD card in your device (at bootloader)
3- tell me what you get..

Gives me the already mentioned "Please connect RS232 and run PC Monitor" Screen...
If you are sure you have followed all procedure re: 1% screen of death mentioned in various threads in this forum, then you're best bet is to return the unit the your distributor/ service centre for repair.
I had this problem and posted my experiences on several threads. I spent the first 2-3 weeks trying different things without any luck. THen one day, I just return the unit the distributor and they repaired in two days. I was told they had to replace the GSM main board.
My problem was caused by T Mobile radio stack upgrade ( I did not use SD method, so the installation installed Tmobile radio stack on my 900/1800 xda. It worked fine until I accidentally 'checked' the 1900 option...
Just my two cents
Hi Friends,
My new mobile phone SPV M600 got stuck whil starting showing four lines of messages as shown below.
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
OS 2.10.1.22
Can any one please help me in geting my phone to today's screen.
I also attached the screen shot for reference.
did you try a hard reset ?
Ya I tried both hard as well as soft reset but same screen is stuck again and agian.Can any one please help me in this regard as I am very new to PDA family.
Ok, first things first:
Since you are new to this, are you sure you preformed a hard reset?
It is done by holding power + camera + comm manager buttons (one on the right, two on the left) and pressing with stylus in the reset hole at the same time.
A message should appear asking you to press 'send' (green phone button) to confirm reset.
If this does not help, you may have a serious problem.
Please answer the following:
Is the device fully charged?
Phone will fail to boot if the battery is too low.
Did you install any software right before this happened?
This should have been resolved by hard reset, but just in case I am asking.
Did you change the ROM, attempted CID / SIM unlock?
This could require more serious measures than I can advise on.
I did exactly the same thing which you mentioned.But even then it is stuck at the same screen.
Ya u r right I unlocked my mobile using a software from eBay.The unlock was successfull and I tried to insert T-Mobile sim, it also captured the signal and I was able to make and recieve calls then after that I wantedly switched off the phone and then tried to start it, there got the problem.
Can any one help me in this regard please.
I am having the same problem, but my phone is not sim-locked.
I've got the same problem after attempting smart1_wm6_pp8mb.exe
I'm having the same problem with my G4 QTEK S200:
Attempted to upgrade to WM6 Rom using smart1_wm6_pp8mb.exe
After reboot the phone got stuck at the QTEK Screen
Tried Hard Reset (Camera+Power+Comm+Reset) followed the steps with the same results (bricked)
I also tried re-flashing the rom back to the factory one using RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship and ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.exe in Windows Vista with WMDC (Windows Mobile Device Center v. 6.0.6873) and the phone in boot loader mode (tri color screen) with working USB cable, with windows firewall disabled and symantec AV disabled as well, RUU keeps saying error 260 "the update utilitiy cannot connect to your pda phone..." .
Do you think I should try this process using XP instead? No matter what i try i keep getting the error 260
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Got it fixed!

Hi Iam able to update the Rom but no use
Hi,
To mention my phone is from orange-UK. I got the orange rom from our FTP site and did the flashing/update what ever you say.But still it is getting stuck at the same IPL/SPL screen. Iam very much worried that I will not get a proper solution for my problem.It will be very grate full if some one resolve my problem.
just seems strange...how did you fix it last time? did it just start working again? A random guess would be that the camera button got liquid spilled on it or is stuck in.
If the camera button is pressed in the phone will go to 3 colour screen every time it is turned on.
It won't do any harm if you try to press/move that button to see if u can "unstick" it, not likely I think but u never know...
Hi all, Hopefully some wise person can assist me.
I downloaded a ROM update for my XDA11i from this site :Alpine_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_O2stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed which was highlighted for a Alpine. However on running the update you get a picture of a MDA and a message "The ROM upgrade utility does not design for your device. Please get proper ROM upgrade utility and try again"
Unfortunatly my XDA11i is now stuck on a blank screen with Serial V1.01 and is not recognised by activsync or My computer. However in the cradle the screen shows USB V1.01
I have tried installing the official O2 ROM update: AP_O2UK_11100_169_10000_ShipXdaIIi but get the following message Error 101: connection error. I assume because my XDA is not recognised by Activsync.
I have spent days trawling the forum and trying the various solutions to no avail. Most of the links are dead as in archive.
1. On reset and hard reset the serial text only dims.
2. I tried the process posted by CelticLo and copied a ROM image to a SD card, however again on hard reset the sserial text only dims.
Any assistance would be very much appreciated.
Have you tried updating to the latest version of Active Sync on XP
or following the guide for Vista
Take off battery. wait for about 10 hrs. put back battery and switch on the power.
Thanks for the tip's
I have tried Activesync on XP and Vista still does not work.
I have removed the battery for two days and recharged it through the cradle, on returning the battery and switching on. It returned to the serial screen.
I tried flashing with the following rom : [Maxishare_net]alpine-1.11.171-radio-1.04-bluetooth-patched-camera-fixed again i get the message it is the wrong ROM??
I can not understand why I keep getting the wrong ROM message as it is definetly a XDA IIi PH10C
thanks anyway

I dragged my Mini s out of the draw thinking it dead for the past few months, after using the battery jump start trick got her up and running again. now, after using mobile 6 on my other HTC i wanted to upgrade on this one, nothing fancy just bog standard mobile 6. its an O2 G4 model, I also checked it with the wizard service tool. I then used the hard SPL G$ tool to unlock it, that went fine. the device repowered and worked. I then tried to load in windows mobile 6 from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355591
after its started the flash I got an error message saying "error 300 invalid update tool" please get a newer tool, I have tried to run it again and now get the message " error 2641 cannot connect " and now all I have is an XDA with a red, green and blue screen showing IPL2.21.0001, SPL 2.21,0lip and "usb" in the bottom left corner
is it bricked? can I recover it, I will be gutted if it is bricked as I followed the instructions to the letter
btw I havnt disconnected it from the USB at all, just leaving it there until I get somne advice from here
update, bit the bullet and unplugged, soft reset and its all as it should be, on windows mobile 5.
so my question now is why didnt the Rom update in the link above work? or am I just a noob doing it wrong...
try downloading another rom and flash it again...even if it isn't connected in activesync ignore that and flash away...if that still doesn't work try your original rom wm5 and then flash a wm6 again...it's not bricked(see below)

Your ROM Update may not have worked because, maybe it was not built for the G4 Wizard. so try anyother ROM
xda2_hasseb most of the WM6 roms available for download on xda-developers are G4 safe as they don't conntain ipl and spl flash....so you can safely flash a Windows Mobile 6 rom without bricking your Wizard
'XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 FINAL' is the latest custom build wm6 rom,build for both the devices,it can be flashed to both the devices G3 and G4 safely,its one of the most favourite roms.
Thakx xardas_90, i knew they didnt had the IPL and SPL with them but i didnt knew that it was IPL & SPL not the ROM it self that caused the Bricking of the G$ WIzards i thought Windows ROM for G3 and G4 were different but THANKS for the info. TC
Thanks for the advice, got it done and works a treat, except no data transfer or sms or net conncetion, still soldiering on, at best it will work, at worst, well i guess my son gets a hand me down lol

You need to get GPRS/MMS settings configured,get these settings from your carrier,only then you'll be able to connect to internet/SMS/MMS, or check out the 'XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 FINAL' rom thread,you might find the appropriate GPRS/MMS settings there of your concerned network.
