Successfully Updating WM6, still booting WM5 - P3600 ROM Development

So I run all the instructions to get LSVW WM6 rom on. I get successful for everything, the GSM radio rom, Hard-spl, and also his WM6 rom. But when everything is done, I turn on the phone, and it hasn't changed??? What the heck. The radio rom does update, as I checked that. Is there something else I'm supposed to do?

i think you're going to have to give some more details as far as the steps you took to update your ROM..

I followed the instructions for LSVW's sticky up top. I first run the RUU to install Hard-SPL. I get to the modded bootloader, and then the percentage bar goes real quickly to 100%. That's because the .nbh is real small file I believe so the update goes fast. Then when it's complete, my phone turns off. I don't know if it's supposed to reset by itself and restart, but mines doesn't. It just goes off, and I turn it on with the power button. Then I run the RUU in the GSM 1.41.00.11 folder, and that installs as well. The bootloader runs, then the installation percentage bar shows up. This one takes a lot longer, understandable since the .nbh seems to be much larger. When it is finished, again the phone turns off, and I have to press the power button to turn it on.
Now I run the RUU for the LSVW WM6 .nbh, and the same process starts again as before. This is a very large .nbh file, but the percentage bar goes by quicker than with the radio rom. This seems strange to me. When done, again phone turns off, I turn it on, but it boots just like before, no change at all, still WM5.
Is there something I have to do? Take the sim card out before? Take the MiniSD out too??
Edit:
I just tried again without SIM and MiniSD, and it successfully updated. Don't know if that did the trick, or if it was just trying it for like the 5th time that it worked, I did nothing else different.

Just click on....
3) Update ROM: 20070527_Trinity_WM6_v2.0.1.1
on LVSW's sticky (post number 1)
It will take you to Rapidshare.
Download the file, extract it, activesync and run ROMUpdateUtility.exe
That's all I did ;-)

Any last words?

Alright, forum friends. On Friday I flashed Anryl Beta 3 using sspl on my sd card. During the day on Friday and Saturday, my phone would occasionally freeze up forcing a soft reset. When I reset the phone, it forced me back through the initial setup (tap screen to configure, setup time zone and email, etc.), essentially forcing a hard reset. Now my phone is stuck at the 1st splash screen and won't finish booting up. The green LED on the right side is lit (the GSM light) and it just hangs there. A soft reset sends it back to the same spot. A hard reset has done the same.
I tried to flash a new rom using the bootloader but the HERMIMG.nbh won't take - it says "Loading..." across the top of the screen then flashes 00068002, then goes back to the red, green, blue and white bootloader screen. Does anyone have any ideas for rescuing my poor phone? I'm up for anything now!
Flash your carrier original ROM, or VP3G or AT&T ROM and see if that helps!
I've tried to flash my original ROM (both the first one that came on the phone and the WM6 release from ATT) but I can't run them from my PC since I can't get an activesync connection. I tried to download the nbhextract file from the forums here and it says that the file is corrupt. I've tried flashing other roms to my device (using my SD card and the .nbh image) and keep getting the same result.
If it helps, here's my info from bootloader: HERM100, IPL-1.04, SPL-2.03.
By the way, I just moved back to my old Ericsson P800 and am dying to get back to my HTC!
So I downloaded the update from HTC's website (the original 6.0 ROM from AT&T) and am pushing that over now. I had to turn off the USB on activesync to get it to connect but everything seems to be going just fine now. Thank you all for all of your help. Hopefully this will be the last post on this thread.

Device unresponsive no matter what rom?

HI all,
I'm having some fun and games with my Orbit today.
I previously had an old version of black & Blue on there. SO today decided to update to have a go with some manilla based ROMS.
First I Tried YuE_v11.3_3.15.20755_Lite_M2D_WWE
Which seemed to work ok but after a while applications were being very slow.
So then I tried to reflash oop, but that seemed to fail.
I Tried to flash love, but it wasn't ever getting to the progress indicator on flashing, so did an SD flash of YuE which worked.
So then tried to flash Love from that minimal YUE and the device is being really slow, like gets to the calibration and takes about 5 mins to swap between screens.
What's the best way to totally clear down the rom and start again on this?
Thanks
I've now flashed the Official UK O2 WM6 ROM and still having problems. Flashed succesfully, but when it boots up, it just sits on the "Windows Mobile" screen and beeps a bit
Current State after O2 flash :
IPL : 3.04.0001
SPL : 3.04.0000
GSM : 03.06.90
OS 3.4.0.0
Any help gratefully appreciated.
Thanks
Hard reset the device, and while you're in the config wizard, plug in your device and flash to new rom. That way it's completely formatted and you'll have a fresh new install... hope it works mate
I did a hard reset, still no joy, hangs on the welcome to windows screen
I can access the Bootloader, but can't find a way to flash a rom from there, all seem to want it done once you've made an activesync connetion
flash YUE back via SD card flashing
I already tried that, flashes fine, but becomes unresponsive soon after
have tried flashing O2 WM5 + WM6 from SD, but still no joy.
It just flashes, loads up WM(5/6) then hangs there, beeping sometimes. Pressing the green button brings up the calibration screen. I sometimes see bits of apps, today screen, but that's about it, it's generally unresponsive.
Any suggestions?

A little update incase someone can help?
I left the battery out of the phone all night last night, and this morning the phone worked great.. for about 2 hours, then it froze. I hard reset, and it's back to freezing after OS loading now
What's up if you remove your MicroSD card ?
That makes no diff, i've tried flashing with + without the SD card (it's currently out), flashing from windows + flashing from microSD, all ends up the same way, with an unresponsive device once the OS boots.

HTC Touch Diamond (Sprint) will not make it past "Touch Diamond" screen.

I am no stranger to forums, or 'modifying' electronics. However, this was my first hack at my Touch Diamond. I went through all the proper procedures to update to WM6.5 (or so it seemed) but now, after installing a ROM
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506533)
the phone only shows the splash screen, then resets and continues to go through this continuous loop. I cannot access the phone, or get booted to the point where I can connect to the PC. Any ideas, as I am sans phone right now. TIA!
Do you flash a hard-SPL ?
Are you sure the ROM's archive isn't broken ?
The connection on the bootloader mode was good, synced with windows?
I think you didn't flash a rom before ? If yes, no problem, if you flash an other rom before, maybe use the MTTY method.
see how this guy could have saved him self time if the thread in my description was stickyed...
MTTY thread... look there. after that ur green to go again.
I do believe people are successfully using the ROM.
The connections were all fine. I had to first install a new bootloader, then updated the radio device (all worked fine). I then went to update the OS, and the process went through just fine, but when the phone booted, it just keeps cycling through the opening splash screen.
My problem is that I cannot get the phone past that screen to do anything.
reb0rn, thank you! The 'boot to flash' was what I was looking for. The 'Volume Down" with "Power On" was what did the trick (I was doing all sorts of other combinations with the 'reset' key).
I'm loading a new version onto the phone as we speak - wish me luck, and thanks again!

SOLVED Now the wife is getting REALLY angry ... HELP

Hi all,
Desperately need some help to stop me geting a whack off the wife
First off the phone is an O2 branded desire with an SLCD screen.
I rooted it using the unrevoked method and installed leedroid. That all went ok
Now sometimes the phone switches itself off and the wife wants it put back to stock, no problem i said.
So i dont need a goldcard ( i think) as the phone is stll O2 branded.
I downloaded the stock O2 RUU:
RUU_Brav2_UK_1.20.207.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.0
2_2_release_124865.exe...
Connected the phone to the computer via usb cable and clicked on the RUU exe and followed the onscreen instructions.
PC said everything was successful and i clicked on "finish"
Now, the screen remained black so i left it for 5 mins, still black.
I removed and re-inserted the battery and switched on, i get the vibration and tje screen still remains black
Can anyone help me out as if you knew my wife you wouldn't want to get her angry
lhiding in the bedroom at the mo

Try the FroYo one:

Are you able to boot into the recovery menu? (volume up/down (don't remember which) + powerkey when phone is off).
If so, grab clockwordmod recovery as an update.zip, then you can launch update.zip (which will load clockworkmod) from which point you can of course flash new roms, etc etc.
If not, I think there are other threads in this forum about gaining USB/ADB access, from which you can then load clockworkmod and do the same.
Hi Sparksalot,
I cannot get into anything as the screen is just black.
When i press the power button after reinserting the battery i get the initial vibration so i presume it is doing something just that i cannot see it as the screen stays black.
I will continue to read threads but i suppose if i cannot see what the phone is doing i wil not be able to fix it
regards
Bernie
@EDDYOS,
thanks for that, will download and give it a go
Big up to eddyos yaaay
YEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS GET IN
Many thanks to Eddyos for posting the RUU.
Downloaded, installed and works perfect
top man

[Q] Is my phone bricked?

Hi there xda's !
I have a problem with my Touch Pro2
It has bin running fine, with lots of different roms, until this morning, when it on startup hang at the first welcome screen (the one with white background and the HTC logo)
Usualy there are some red letters in the left bottom corner of the screen but not this time.
Also, the small lamp that indicates if it is recharging and stuff, does not work anymore.
However, if i wait for 30 minutes, it will eventually boot up, but the phone is so slow, that it takes another 15 minutes to startup, and everything works slow when i am in the OS. And then it turns it selv off.
I have tried to do a task29 and install a new rom, and it installs it flawless and fast like it normally would, but it still doesnt boot up. Only after 30 minutes.
When i am in the bootloader it also has these 2 lines
MicroP(LED) Wrong Plat(0x0)
MicroP(KEY) Wrong Plat(0x0)
Is my phone bricked? Or is there something i can try?

Anyhow i cannot get activesync or "windows mobile device manager?" installed on my x64 windows 7, so i am waiting for an oppertunity on another computer, but untill then i am open for suggestions
Get 64-bit version of windows mobile device manager. You can also try a radio upgrade.

well, my phone will nok make an active sync connection once in windows mobile, guess it because everything is so slow.
Is there anything i can try to install from the bootloader, since that is the only place i can install stuff on my phone?

You can install from the SD card by renaiming the *.nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh and putting it in the root of the SD card. Boot into the bootloader and it will ask you to confirm the flash with the power button. This method can be done with ROMs, radios, and splash screens.
