Now i want to update my ROM with WM 6.5, bit i only become the following error:
Your image has corrupted. please check your update utility.
Can anyone help me???
i hope you can help me.
thx
markus

try to re-download the rom and make sure you run a USPL first if it's your first upgrade. Search the forum if you need help

it dosn´t works
i´ve tried 5 different roms but no one works.
its the second upgrade on the fon.

Try a new update of SPL, files here= http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
Download "ArtemisUSPL.zip"
1. Unzip
2. Connect your phone to computer, make sure activesync is enabled (green icon)
3. Run start_uspl.exe on your computer and wait until process finishes
4. The phone reboot.
When boot is done, you are CID unlock forever normally so you can flash all rom you want.
Then, You can flash now your rom, just run RUU from your rom folder and normally it's good.
If it always don't work, give us all the number show in your 1st screen when the phone boot (IPL, SPL ...)

yes, tell us what numbers you get on your screen
also what error are you getting
and what OS are you on....vista? XP ? Did you get an activesync connection before you tried flashing?
also try putting phone into bootloader mode first and then flashing, sometimes helps. (hold down RECORD/NOTES button when you reset)
once you've got an error number ( eg error 260 ) you can try searching the forum for that error number and see how everyone else has coped with it.

Brick Hermes, stuck at WM6 Screen, help!

Recently tried upgrading my SPV M3100 from WM5 to black WM6. Everything was going fine and I had installed the following
SPL (Bootloader) version 2.10.Olipro (HardSPL v7)
Radio version 1.43.00.00 (optional)
Was updating to ROM version: Windows Mobile 6 LVSW 160607 when USB cable was disconnected before installation ands I am now left with WM6 screen only
Can anyone help?
If you stuck in the wm6 boot screen and have flashed HardSPL 2.10 already you can just enter the bootloader and reflash your ROM again. Why do you use nearly 6 months old ROM (LVSW)?
Did you try to reflash the ROM?
Just switch to the bootloader and run the update again.
If the updater is complaining about "Not able to do so" you might need another ROM, but that method worked to or three times for me.
Cheers,
Jago
tried raflashing but activesync won't pick up phone
you do not need active sync to pick it up. Just enter the bootloader and run RUU.
how do you reflash without activesync?

Simply - flashing process itself is not done by the Active sync (its icon is grey when flashing). I have tried to flash a ROM this way and it works. You just have to input correct values to the RUU yourself. Bootloader is the tri color screen. You can access it by holding power and ok button while using the stylus to soft reset the device. Hermes will pick up the usb connection.
Please read the WIKI and flash an original WM6/WM5 rom before attempting to flash a cooked rom.. then make sure you know what you are doing before flashing the cooked.
tried both

Put your device into bootloader mode.
Connect it via USB to your PC.
Run the RUU on your PC (like if you had Active sync working).
Flash the ROM.
(should work with all cooked ROMs)
Update: I tried it now with the Schaps 4.20 - it is working.
When you run ruu it should create ROMUpgradeUt.exe if it says it fails to find the device just run this. I usually take a copy before clicking to close the error box.
where do u locate RUU.exe
sorry I'm not an expert in this
RUUWrapper.exe should be in the folder with the image you are flashing. Sorry if I confused you saying ruu.
When you download the cooked rom it comes in rar or zip containing 2 files - one with extension .NBH and the second one is RUUWrapper.exe (resource upgrade unit), unpack them to one folder and run RUU.exe Be sure to flash only ROM for your device otherwise you will kill it for good.
tried running RUU but get error 260, i.e. cannot pick up phone on USB
See post 12
yeah, tried running ROMUpgradeUt.exe, but still no joy

If this does not work for you - then you can use flashing from the SD card (no USB needed for this kind of flashing) . But try what markafreeman suggests first.
Lets try some troubleshooting:
Whne you connect your device in the bootloader (red green blue screen) to your pc what does it say?
In the white part of the screen on your device it should say USB - then it will work.
If not you can still try flashing the ROM from the SD card - you will need a card reader though for this kind of flashing.

[SOLVED][HELP]Dead PDA - please help

I had a small problem:
I want to upgrade ROM from 1.35.401.3 to 1.93.401.2...
I download the official .exe from HTC:
Diamond-QMR-RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2_Radio_Signed_Dia mond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship
using the S/N from the back of my PDA
... it work till 34%, then it appears UPDATE ERROR:284
"ERROR [262, 276, 284, 302] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs during the CE ROM code upgrade process.
Solution: If this happens, you can just soft-reset the device and run RUU again. The update process will then continue.
Note: At this stage, the Wince is destroyed; instead, it is in upgrade mode."
What do you recommend to do?
I repeated the process 5 or 6 time, the same stop, at 34% and even recovery is useless
Please help...
there are a couple of things you can try...
1st off, put the phone in bootloader mode (hold "volume down" button and press reset with pen) then flash using a windows XP machine with no running services such as Anti Virus/firewall etc.
if not, try hard SPL developers edition, and then flashing it...

That would be impossible in bootloader mode using the current toolchain.
The Hard SPL uses a soft SPL that has to be loaded into RAM from within Win CE.
This Soft SPL forces the device to think that it's CID unlocked, and letting the actual Hard SPL flash to the device.
Maybe a hard reset would help:
http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_diamond_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html
Good luck to you friend.
May be the file u have is corruped, try another ROM!!
Which OS did you use to upgrade from?
Have you tried to use a PC with XP (proffesional) with activesync 4.5 installed?
if all fails:
-kill wcecomm.exe on the PC (with taskmanager) (or disable activesync)
-put Diamond into bootloader..
-Run the official RUU again.
(worked for me on other devices too.. )
All is not lost..

Hi gabib77.
As long as you can get the coloured bootloader screen all is not lost, you can still flash your Diamond in the bootloader mode, i.e run the rom update from your PC as normal.
I would first suggest you reflash back to the original rom, try here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399680, I am not sure what the "QMR" info you stated on the upgrade rom means, but the second link from the HTC Diamond ROM's List is for the WWE version (1.35.401.3 WWE)
If you cannot flash your Diamond in bootloader mode, then try a hard reset first as mentioned on this thread first.
If you all goes ok then go to http://modmydiamond.info/ for more info on flashing.
Good luck.
I solved the problem... my problem happened because I try to upgrade from 1.35.401.3 to 1.93.401.2...
I put the official 1.37.401.2, then I upgraded to 1.93.401.2 WWE and everything is perfect now...
Thanks everyone for the help

My FSC-n560 is bricked. Help please!

Hi!
I was using Newplow's WM6 038 ROM with my N560.
Yesterday I tried to write another ROM(WM6 038 with 8MB pagepool) but during update got an error.. It said it just failed.
Now my N560 is stuck on booting screen(people climbing mountain..)
I tried Warm, Cold, Hard reset but with no luck.
Even the power button doesn't work so I had to remove battery. When I insert battery it powers on by itself.
I can enter bootloader screen by pushing power+record button so I tried to copy rom image file to SD card but it doesn't work.
I tried two ROMs(OS_213U.nbf from Original WM5 ROM and Newplow's) and 3 SD Cards(2GB SD, 1GB MicroSD with Adopter, 16GB SDHC)
Is there any recovery tutorial in bootloader mode?
Help me please!
Sorry for my English.
Have you tried flashing a ROM through the computer rather than the memory card? Try going into bootloader and flashing that way rather than the card.
The pagepool ROM is meant for N560s that have been upgraded to 128Mb RAM... have you upgraded the internal RAM to 128Mb? If you have not, then this may have caused your problem.
I had this problem when flashing to 038 normal RAM (from 035). A hard reset reset to the normal start screen, but nothing worked. However, trying a new burn with the Loox flash tool restarted the process and it worked. I found the cure was to make sure you hard reset the N560 before doing a burn. It appears to be that you have to do this to release enough RAM for the burn program to reside and for "working" storage. You may not have done this.
I suggest you try simply re-running the flashtool with SD/SDHC cards removed, battery in place, on the cradle via your PC, even though it appears stuck. The signals coming from the USB link may wake up the bootloader routine in the N560?
Solved the problem! Thanks for your comments!
I asked same question in Newplow's guestbook and the person who made pagepool rom answered. I used MTTY to revive my pda.
What I did is in below post. need translation
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=55274
Hi all,
I have the same problem. N560 is stick on the himalaya picture. I tried to falsh from WM5 to new rom for Wm6 and after installation the pda stuked. So I did a warm reset and now only the start picture is apperaing. Problem is that battery is down now.
Can someone give more info on the process followed to revive the PDA ? I just cannont read russian (may be Jinsu77 ?)
Many thanks for support in advance
same problem here please please please someone help us
the only thing i can do is the l c:\os_213u.nbf on mtty program and nothing else happend to the machine
sorry for my english
read, and pay attention here:
[email protected]@p://a.mod-site.net/gb/u/newplow-1.html
POST 203.
It was me asking on Newplow's guestbook.
In case you're using Vista, you need some trick to be able to rom update. Read below.
http://www.modaco.com/content/windo...u-on-vista-it-can-be-done-the-ultimate-guide/
And then you need to download MTTY (I used version 1.42, got it by googling) and follow below steps.
(used google translation from 4pda.ru)
------------------------------------------------------------
For rom update without ActiveSync.
1) take this set of extract, copy it to the folder with the firmware.
2) copy the file os_213u.nbf example in C: \
3) You press the button Recorder + food and poke in the hole reset (Recorder button and hold until you eat dolphins)
4) plug the device to a PC, the Task Manager, shooting process - wcescomm.exe
5) Run mtty, choose Port: USB, connect.
6) If mtty caused an error and shut down, simply restart mtty, if not typed commands, then repeat the procedure with paragraph 3.
7) in mtty command, enter: (first letter in kommande - a little l l от слова from the word L L oad)
> l l c:\os_213u.nbf c: \ os_213u.nbf
Since the end of the process will be an inscription about the error, remove the device from the PC.
9) Run rom update, zhmete "next", until you see dolphins.
10), plug the device to a PC and program.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps you all
in advance sorry for my english
I am doing all the instructions carefully and the mtty show this
Image Download Finish

RUU.dll
and the only thing i can see is that the PocketLOOX5xxFlashTool is trying to find the pda without any luck
also the pda is stucked in the same screen with the dolphins and the blue bar

have you closed EVERY process of activesync before proceding with mtty?
I close the wcescomm.exe and the rapimgr.exe is there anything else?
The pocket LOOX 5xx FlashTool cant connect with the N560 and at the and says that Error"The language in this Flash Image update (ENGLISH) differs from that on your device()!" and i have always english rom exept maybe from the last rom "the killer" with the 128MB rom that i dont know if it is an english or something else because the device never opens to see
After flashing in MTTY(don't care about error messages), you need to unplug your n560 from PC. And then proceed romupdate until you see the dolphin picture. Now you plug n560 to PC and cilck next and wait for a while.. Hope it works!
I change the language of the rom and it works
thank very much all of you
At all they have Probs with flash from SD Card: only use a Card with 512MB! I think a Card greater then can't read by the Bootloader....
hey.
i am compeletly new here. I have the same with my n560. I tried to upgrade to 128mb but after restart I see only climbing. I tried everything here but on dolphins afterr line is blue it is finished. that I am unpluging device. starting looxflastool for 560 and first is trying to connect by active sync and that when no connection made I see dolphins on left screen of flash tool window. than I am pluging again and after couple secs I see that: Error"The language in this Flash Image update (ENGLISH) differs from that on your device. I tried to change rom on every language but not working as well. PLEASE HELP
if that helps than i will add than on top when delfins i see on 560 is two lines. first is typed 2.14.G4 on second directly below is 2.15.
and when mtty 1.42 finishing flashing i see following:

OEMFlashWrite error(12)

Need help!!! Please!!!
I bricked my N560. I tried to downgrade from WM6 to WM5 and now I see only delfins and in the first line "2.14.G4" and in the second line "2.15"
What can I do?? How can I flash WM6 or WM5 ROM when there is no connection to the PDA????

You can usually get back to the boot loader if you do a hard reset. I am sure you know how, if not you will find it in the FSC CDROM manual that came with the device. Let us know if this works? I have got stuck at this point too, so I know it works..... hopefully!

How to upgrade ROm with nbh file

As newbie on this, anyone please guide me step by step to upgrade my P3300 rom with nbh file. My device is unlock already with current ROM 5.2.1908 (build 18125.0.4.2).
The procedure is given in almost every thread. It's simple really. Is your SPL version anything other than 1.11.0000 or 1.11.cmon? If yes then your phone is not unlocked. Unlock your phone by running USPL from here or the updated USPL from here.
Check if the USPL has worked by checking your SPL number. During phone booting at the white HTC screen your SPL should show either 1.11.0000 ir 1.11.cmon.
If it does you are free to flash any ROM. Get the ROM of your choice, put your phone into bootloader mode by pressing the voice record, power key and reset button simultaenously for about 5 seconds till you see a three colored screen. Attach it with USB and flash the rom using RUU.
thanks randythered for ur reply. I did w/o problem on USPL but how to use the nbh extention? where that nbh file I shall put in? pc or devise or on specific folder? I got the three colors already, then what next? pl. enlighted

do u have only .nbh file or along with .nbh file any other files are there ?
generally along with the .nbh file there are other files like romupdateutuility.exe etc.,
download those files also and save those files into your PC.
after unlocking your device then staup the device with bootloader mode (three color screen)
connect the Device with the PC by USB cable.
in the device display u will a word USB (left bottom corner)
run the Romupdateutility from the PC...
the process will guide u next steps ...
after the completion u will have new OS
Last I would recommend tht u also upgrade you Radio ROM (this is responsible for all the communication functions of ur phone i.e. calls, GPS, WiFi etc) which will enhance the communication capabilities.
Radio ROMs Link : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._RadioUpgrades.
Note : before flashing any ROM or upgrading the RADIO kindly CID unlock your device or you will end up the with bricked device .
You can download my ROMs, they come with the full package

As sixthsigma said, did you check if the phone is correctly unlocked? Is the SPL showing 1.11.0000 or 1.11.cmon?
Secondly, what OS are you flashing on? XP, Vista or Windows 7?
Hi Randythered, IPL 1.25.0001 and SPL 1.27.0000
I am using your ROM RtR Manila v1.0
using XP
Well, firstly thank you for wanting to try out my ROM
Secondly, you haven't unlocked your phone properly yet. The SPL must be 1.11.0000 or1.11.cmon, depending on which USPL you use.
strange... hv tried several time but w/o luck...
now I notice that it cut out after '70' and jump into 100 with disconnecting
any choices of other USPL instead of the one attached here?
Did you flash the old USPL or the new one which is nosize? It is preferable to install the old one first. And then go for the cmon nosize USPL if need be.
From a noob to a noob
Hi, heres the procedure for upgrading your rom put as noob friendly as i can put it.
WHAT YOU NEED
1. HTC Artemis p3300
2. computer running Windows XP with activesync installed
3. Usb cable to connect to computer
4. The new rom that you want to flash
5. And USPL which can be downloaded at this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
NB: For most of the newer roms you will probably need the updated nosize version of uspl http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521406
PREPARATION
NB: Anything you need to backup or keep from your device do it now.
NB: in some cases you may have to hard reset your device before it will take the flash
1. Extract Uspl to your desktop
2. Extract the rom you downloaded to your desktop
3. Remove your sim chip and memory card from your device
4. Reset your device and sync with windows xp
UPDATING
1. In the USPL folder run the program called "start_uspl" and let it do its thing in the dos window,in
my case it goes to 70 and then jumps to 100,if you have been watching your device screen you will
see the linux penguin for a few seconds and it will change to a white screen.
A window will popup on your computer, do as it requests, when finished it will reset your device.
Sync your device with your computer again.
2. In your downloaded rom folder you should find a file called "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" or "Ruu.exe", run
it and a window will popup, do as it requests.
Your device screen will go tri-color(red,green,blue) and the rom update will begin, wait till it
finishes and thats it.
thanks soloman1 and others
finally I got it with removing the sim card and memory card prior to upgrading

Anyhoo, im running WM 6.1 (Lite) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364031) on my HTC TyTn.
Now id like to flash it into, i dunno, the full version, or 6.5, or something else, but it wont.
I connect it through active sync(on my desktop pc), and i run 'Force Using Safe SSPL', i get the error : ERROR 246. The Update Utility cannot get response from your PDA Phone. Please check that your USB cradle/cable is connected properly between the PC and your PDA Phone. And also check your PDA Phone.

Try this,
1. Make sure you have HSPL 2.10 or New Bootloader
2. Put Your device into bootloader mode (Until there a "SERIAL" in the bottom of ur device), connect it to PC (Now "SERIAL" change to "USB")
3. Run 838Pro_SEA_ENG_WM6_Upgrade_20070712 (official ROM or U can RUN other official ROM can be found on www.htc.com ), don't click "AUTODETECT",
4. Checklist the option button of SPL-2.02/2.10/2.30 New Bootloader and Is it Hard-SPL?, after that just click next2 until flashing started
5. If it didnt work repeat step 1-3 and checklist the option button " Force Using Safe SSPL " then follow all flashing step
6. Run AT&T Strip, link: http://www.4shared.com/file/61372397/e2bf76c0/official_ATT_WM6_striped.html
7. Flash WM6.5 ROM you want
Hope its usefull cause I use this when my hermes couldnt load and every flashing it's stuck on 1%
Good Luck
