Help! have i been cursed with a bad dash?

i dont know what's wrong, ive owned this dash since march. updated to wm6 when it came out, then stopped giving a hoot after finding out that SNappunlock wont work on my dash.
i noticed people here found a very nice dash rom that i want to flash to so badly, but i learned that this requires appunlock in order to get the CID bypass to work
after searching around for wm5 (took about an hour) so i can flash back just so i can appunlock, then flash to the better rom. i found it! all thanks to BGNiko
you think i'm done with my problems, right? well i go to flash to wm5, and during the flashing session, the screen brings me to that RGB before the rom change happens, but no go! it tells me my usb cable isnt hooked up even though it is. ive had no problems re-flashing to the wm6, so the cable isnt the problem.
anyone ever have problems reverting to wm5? is there a solution?
thanks in advance
ps: i have us tmobile

uhh... did you try again?
i had the same thing happen to me. tried again, same thing (same message that you got). restarted the computer, tried again... presto. worked fine.
so long as the flash process doesn't start, your phone should be fine. it's just a matter of getting the computer to talk to the phone. it might be as simple as a computer restart... or trying a differnt usb port or something.

well, took your advise.. didnt work, but thats because i have vista (go figure). did it on my other comp and it worked
though i'm still faced with the appunlock problem
appunlock didnt work, and every time i go to execute sda unlock it tells me that its "not a certified windows CE edition"? or something to that matter
any help would be greatly appreciated
edit: wow, so i am an idiot. i thought the apps had to be excecuted from the phone.
anyway, did the uspl cid unlock. turned my screen white instead of black, but i'll take it

Rom update fried my phone

Hi. I downloaded and tried to install the win mobile 6.1 rom update on my XV6900. I followed all instructions, then while it was updating the error code #328 said this phone could not install the update. Now I have the 3 colorful bars and 1 white bar. I talked with tech support @ Verizon and we tried everything. I am using Windows Vista so I use Windows Mobile Device Center. Is there anything I can do to get my phone back??? Please??
Thank you

you are at the bootloader menu & i doubt you have bricked your phone. so keep your head up.
what exactly are you installing & where are you getting it? What percentage of the update did it fail? Have you tried to run the update again? We will need some more information please.

The screen you are at is called the Bootloader screen. I would be optimistic that you can recover from this.
I'm not at home so I do not have acess to vista, but I know you need to make an adjustment within the active sync settings in order for it to work sometimes. I remember a guy on Youtube did a short video on how to Flash from Vista. try going there and see if the guy shows how to adjust active sync. Otherwise try an XP machine.
Edit: I think in WMDC on your PC. (basicly active sync) go into settings and make sure you untick "allow usb connection". Dont ask why but it worked for me. Then while your phone is in bootloader mode connect va USB and run RUU. I think I had a similar problem once and I just used an XP machine and it worked with no problems, then I found this adjustment in Vista.

Hi. I went to VZ site, xv6900 software MR1 link, to PCD site and downloaded zip file "RUU_Vogue-Vzw_WWE_3.14.605.1_Radio_3.37.78_Ship.exe". I extracted, followed directions, and it hung at about 12% I think. I wasn't watching too closely after I saw that it was working. Then the phone went black, blinked the red low batt signal once, and I got the mssg on PC #328, this update is not for my phone. I have tried the update agan several times, took out battery several times, rebooted PC all of these but only bootloader screen. I am a low-level tweaker, know a little, but this is new to me. I happy for all the help I can get. Thank you.

Does your phone have a low Battery? If so charge it to atleast 50%. Try what I mentioned above about Vista. I swear this happened to me a year or so ago when updating my Sprint Touch. All you need to do is run the RUU file from your PC.

THANK YOU. It worked to turn off USB in WMDC. Now I just have to sync again and reload my programs. The FED EX guy just dropped off my replacement phone too. Now I don't need it!! Which one should I keep? Thank you all. You are all AWESOME!! REALLY, which one should I keep? Is there a way to determine which is the better phone?

Stuck unlocking (read the other forums) little help?

Hey guys I know this is not the unlocking thread but I tried posting on the thread made by "coke" with no response. So I thought I'd do it here. So here's the story
I have a Sprint Vogue and I was really getting tired of the slow HTC WM 6.1 and all the buttons that I could not modify on the cube (which is useless cuz I dont use any of the them). So I decided to try out a new rom with 6.1 and touchflo 2D.
I went to the ppcgeeks forum to unlock the phone, followed the instructions, read and reread the posts. Finally decided to give it a go. Everything went smoothly until the last step (exitbl) of coke 2.31. It kept telling me to disable USB on activesync and then the program would just shut down! ?? And yes I did disable the USB option for the activesync before that step. I looked under the device information and realized that nothing has changed interms of the ROM. So I tried it again and again (4 times). Then I just reinstalled the HTC 6.1 rom with the 3.42.30 radio... So any ideas on why this may be happening? I promise I followed all the steps
My second question is, in your opinions, what is the most reliable, stable and fast Touch 6.1 rom? Let me know if you have an opinion.
Thanks so much in advance, any help would be appreciated.

I had what sound like the same problem yesterday.
my post is over at ppcgeeks.
"I disconnected but I did not see the phone exit bootloader mode and reset itself.
....
What should I do from here?
Reboot phone, soft reset, hard reset? - go have fun?
....
I did a couple soft resets and have been playing around with it,
I guess I upgraded right... but it was weird there at the end, instructions not the clearest to me, i guess."
mine seems to be working fine, except the weather thing.
shows
in the About section my phone reads
WM 6.1 Pro
CE OS 5.2.21041
Device Information reads
ROM version 1.05.Alltel
Radio version 3.42.30
PRL Version 30008
PRI version 2.02_011
I was kinda scared to do another hard reset b/c I had already changed a bunch of settings.
Sorry if this doesn't help you too much,
but it is nice to know I'm not the only one with this issue
.

Hmm sounds like a similar problem. But I thought it wasn't unlocked unless we saw 2.31.coke somewhere in the device information.
As far as I know, hard reset did not hurt the phone. I tried installing that unlocker 4 times then went with the original HTC rom and it still turned out just like before. It installed the rom fine
Yeah I am still concerned about how it wont go through the exitbl step...

Yeah, the directions can be a bit confusing over there on that thread
Basically here are the steps
Download the 2.31 unlocker
Download the ROM you want to use (my personal preference is this one for a TF2D style or this one for a WinMO 6.5 style interface that has TF2D included to switch back and for - both very stable, fast and clean and the thread is very active for help (especially if your on Verizon or Bell which can have issues)
from there, use WinRAR to extract each file into separate folders
then Put your phone in bootloader mode (press and hold power+camera+stylus in reset until 3-color screen comes up)
At this point at the bottom of the screen it will say Serial, plug it into the USB cable or cradle and it should change to USB
Start the exe in the 2.31 and follow the directions (you may get some errors about sleep4.exe just click on OK as it keeps occuring its a XP/Windows7 64 bit issue if that is what your using)
At the point where it tell you to disconect, unplug the phone from the USB cable and wait (count to 10 or something) then plug it back in, it should have went from USB to SERIAL and now back to USB at that point go ahead and hit any key on your PC and it should continue along
once complete, reboot, allow it to do its thing then reboot and go back into bootloader again during reboot you should see coke 2.31 in the upper left if so your ready to go
plug it into your USB/Cradle again and then go into the ROM folder you extracted the ROM into
Once the screen on your phone says USB again go to the folder and double click on the RomUpdateUtility.exe file and follow the directions again, it may take some time so be paitent
once the phone flashes and reboots, let it run and do its thing to the and reboot itself then (and here is an important step for stability) once it starts up do a hard reset (red+green+stylus in reset hole) hit the enter button (center of D-Pad) it will reflash the phone and then red key (send) when prompted
then go thought the setup again, this time you can actually set things up as your keeping them this time and once things are done and your at the start screen on your phone power off (not reset) the phone and then start it up again - seems doing it this way takes care of alot of little issues that will come up before they can happen
Depending on your carrier be sure to have one of the DCD Carrier Cabs as well especially for the 6.5 ROM as it is a generic ROM and some have reported needing to run the DCD Carrier Cab for the service they use to get on the internet and use GPS and the like
Hope that clears up things a bit LOL

Doug, when I go into the bootloader it DOES say SPL-2.31.Coke. Does that mean that it is all set? Also this time, it still asked me to disable active sync at this time (at the exitbl step) do you have to run that step to complete the unlock?
This is what my bootloader image says
VOGU100 NFG
SPL-2.31.CoKe
CPLD-3
Let me know if I need to run the exitbl or if I am set to load the rom. Thanks so much for your help!

Your all set to flash if in bootloader it says as your phone does SPL-2.31.CoKe
you all unlocked and ready to go ... just put your phone in bootloader mode then connect the phone to your PC "serial" will change to "USB" and then run the RomUpdateUtility.exe file and follow along with the bouncing ball, do the watusi, wipe hands on pants - whatever helps you pass the time
but follow the steps as outlined above with the hard-resets and power-offs and the like, believe me its better to solve the issues before they occur than wait and have to start over
Detroit Doug

Doug, it worked like a charm. I did not know that the last step of the unlocker was not required. I installed 6.1 with Touchflo 2D. Looks and feels .. wow. it's the coolest thing I've seen. I've followed all your step including a hard reset before I started using it. So far the speed is impressive.
Couple more questions for you since you are an expert at this.
1. If I reload the factory default ROM, will it reset everything back to normal and can I keep reverting back and forth between different ROMs without any consequences?
2. It (the NFSFAN's 6.1 rom) seems to use less Storage memory (137 free vs HTC's ~100 free) but much more Program memory (59 free vs. ~80 in HTC's) than the HTC default. Any ideas or concerns about this?
All in all thanks so much! Hopefully as I learn more and more I will be able to contribute things too. You are right. This is so cool and highly addictive!!
Take care~ BTW I am in Lansing Go State!

Glad it worked, and Ill try to answer you concerns
1 -Now that it is unlocked go ahead and swap ROMs all you want to, the tricky part is the stock ROM, flashing back to stock can and will revert your radio (if youve upgraded it) and ca cause issues with the unlocker, but a simple run of the unlocker 2.31 again can correct it
2 - NFSFAN like other Chefs have ways of moving data/programs around when they cook up these ROMs utilizing whatever kitchen program they personally prefer that being the case how they data/programs get pushed about can create the speediness you now see in your phone by freeing up the RAM for apps and the like and pushing programs off to the side optimizing how the device should have been setup from the start
As for that, Ive been using his ROMs as well as some others for quite some time and have had little to no issues with how he places the progs and data so I wouldnt worry about it
Yeah, Live in Las Vegas now - but Michigan will ALWAYS be home Go Red Wings !!!!

Thanks Doug, for all your information. Your answers were great! Hopefully I wont need too much more help in the future. i'm learning~

Don't mean to go off on a little tangent, but I find this post really helpful and was wondering if you, Doug, or someone else could provide a link to this 2.31 unlocker or whatever it is. Thanks in advance.

Having trouble unlocking my xv6900. I'm using 2.31 unlocker. I have the phone in bootloader mode and when I connect the usb it goes from serial to usb. I run the RUU from the unlockers self extracted folder but it get an error message. I'm pretty positive its just something im not doing correctly. Any help appreciated.
Another thing I noticed the RUU will not detect my current version if I am in bootloder mode. If I run the RUU with active sync on it will detect my current version but when it puts my phone into bootloader mode to update it, it disconnects my active sync connection.

From Detroit_Doug
At the point where it tell you to disconnect, unplug the phone from the USB cable and wait (count to 10 or something) then plug it back in, it should have went from USB to SERIAL and now back to USB at that point go ahead and hit any key on your PC and it should continue along
Maybe wait longer if you can,
I reckon some pc take longer to fully recognize[process] the disconnect and reconnect procedure.
example: disconnect > wait 20-30 seconds > reconnect > wait 20-30 seconds > then continue
I had that same issue and waiting longer during this process helped
.

I can't even get to that point. With active sync on as soon as I start the unlocker RUU it gets the info from my phone and shows the current rom 3.14.605.1 ....I click update and it shows 2.31 unlocker I hit next and then the install status bar comes up on my desktop and my phone goes into bootloader mode and the active sync connection drops and I get the 262 connection error. If I start the RUU with my phone in bootloader usb mode already it does not detect my current rom and I click next. click next to 2.31 unlocker, and it goes through the same steps and I get the same error. Is there anything I have to do to my phone prior to running the RUU. My phone is a verizon xv6900 running wm 6.1 rom 3.14.605.1 with radio 3.37.78

I have the same problem with my new sprint touch. I get error 262 at 0%, did they change something in these new phone that won't allow us to unlock?
Rom is 3.03.651.4
radio 3.42.30

I think I got it, what I did was not to extract the vogue_unlocker_MFG_2.31.exe file but to run it. I had activesync set up and connected, then just ran the unlocker, don't extract it. It will shut off activesnyc and put my phone in to the 3 color screen, form there, just follow the directions. Also I didn't have to run the exitbl step as my phone auttomatically exit and restarted.

I ended up having to re-run the .041 unlocker and then the 2.31 unlocker and it ended up working for me. I'm not sure why I had to because I Had the same bootloader info prior to running the 2.31 unlocker in the first place. The 6.5 rom and gps rom has been working flawlessly for a week now, the only thing I had to do was call up VZW (*8889) the guy answered "account investigations" LOL I told him I had to hard reset and my phone wouldn't authenticate and he asked me to call back from another line. I told him that I had no landline and he said thats fine I can override it just call back right away whenever you get to another phone. That was on friday and I have not called back but I've been able to text, make and receive calls so I don't think I will unless I have to.

thank you! i did that and it worked for me.

yeah, it says right in the directions over there to just run the exe it will create a temp folder and run the RUU itself from there
Extracting it and running it will always cause issues
also - Ignore the sleep4.exe or whatever if you encounter it - it is a legacy exe that is called that isnt used anymore, wont affect the unlocking just hit OK through it

Error 262 when attempting Coke 2.31

So here's the situation. I've had a Touch before, and unfortunately after I broke my ribs I was spaced out on painkillers (which is why I don't take them) and forgot to pull it out of my pants before they did the good ol' wash cycle.
I finally got one back, and now I can't get anything going for me. I know for a fact I can flash the device since the new one came with the original stock WM6 ROM. Not even the 6.1 ROM, just plain old WM6. After several failed attempts to get Coke 2.31 on there I finally just said to hell with it and tried the MR1 update from VZW just to make sure it wasn't my PC.
Sure enough that one worked perfectly every step of the way.
Everytime I attempt to unlock the phone though it just fails with Error 262. I've tried every way I can think of.
I tried it with the 'Enable advanced network functionality' both on and off. I've reinstalled WMDC multiple times. I've tried it while in Windows Mobile, and while on the bootloader which just gives me the stock Vogue VZW info...nothing showing it is even getting anywhere in the unlock process.
I even tried the last resort of flashing from the MicroSD which of course just said loading for about half an hour and went nowhere.
I've read threads here and on PPC backwards and forwards on how to do this.
I've done it multiple times before on the old one before I sent it to an early grave.
I'm going nuts here trying to figure out what in the world it could be that I'm doing wrong.
Help?!?

Did you read my tutorial? It is the one stickied on this sub forum. If I were you, I would try an XP computer. This usually seem to give more issues than not. Also, the 262 error is a connection error, so a simple check would be to change the USB port that you are using to connect. Finally, you could try mtty (if you feel adventurous enough).... but I would rather go to the XP option first.
Good luck and let me know how it turns out!

This is what I had to do on my Dell Pentium 4 running Windows 7 32 bit to get mine to flash. I went into Control Panel/ Hardware and sound and Changed connection settings for WM Device Center. I unchecked everything. Then I right clicked on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe for coke 2.31 and clicked on troubleshoot compatibility and for the system to run it in XP service pack 2 mode. Then I ran the ROMUpdateUtility.exe as administrator and it worked!

Your guide is actually the main one I was trying to use to get this all to work out
My big problem is that I don't have any machines with XP on them around here anywhere
Even my 5-year old laptop is running Windows 7 at this point, and I don't have the old factory restore discs for it to toss XP back on there.
neuteboomt
I just gave that a try and for some reason when I uncheck all of those settings nothing sees the phone at that point, not even the updater.
I am trying to find a way to make Virtual XP Mode see the phone since over on Modaco a ton of people have managed to unlock their omnia's in XP Mode with 0 issues...I just have to get the files all downloaded to try it out.
Edit:
Well got all the files needed to try in XP Mode, and it still gives me a 262. I think I found an old image backup of my laptops XP disc though so I'm going to try to reformat my laptop and go back to XP on it to see if all this works.
I'm hoping it does, otherwise I'm going to be spending a crapload of time playing around with operating system installs
Well that image wasn't the right one for the laptop...so it was a no go...found the right image for my laptop though so it'll take a few hours to get everything all set back up on the laptop and ready to go.
I'm hoping to report back by 3PM or so today on whether or not it all worked out.

you should read through this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569922 he was having the same issue and what i suggested worked for him

Barogi44 you are the man. I have the phone unlocked now
I can't figure out why that made a difference, but it sure did and now the phone is updating with the Bell Rom on its way to having the NFSFAN ROM on it

[Q] Nothing from this site works on my phone

Morning,
I have tried countless times to upgrade my ROM, Custom RUU, task29, etc.... Everything ends exactly the same; Screen on the phone shows the multi color background with "USB" at the bottom of the page, then both my laptop and the phone show a status bar that never moves off of 0%. I let it sit for a while, then I get some form or another of a communication error. It wants me to perform a "Recovery" but that never works either. I always have the same results.
When I try to use the HardSPL file, I get an error that states "Windows cannot access the specefic device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access them." It does not matter how I try it or "Run as Administrator" it still does not work.
When I connect my phone to the laptop, Activesync kicks in and establishes a connection, when the screen goes multi color with "USB" at the bottom, I hear the laptop ding as it does when a USB device is disconnected. I don't hear any dings as if it were reconnecting. I have tried this on 2 different Win7 machines and get the same results.
I would love to flash the ROM on this thing as it is over bloated with apps that I don't want/need/care to have! I know this phone has the potential to be very a very cool phone, so I am begging for help on this one.
I have succefully flashed the ROM on my old HTC Fuze phone with no issue at all. I have to wonder when I see the threads for doing this is over 2 years old if that has anything to do with it.
If anyone could please assist me in getting this sorted so I can open my phone up to new and different possibilities, that would be great!
Thanks
Joe

1. So your only problem is that you can't hardspl. Then why do you say that nothing from this site works?
2. Ask hardspl questions in the hardspl thread.
3. Try entering bootloader and then plugin your usb and perform a hardspl.
For further help, you should really ask in the hardspl thread

Yeah, the OP is really only having problems with HardSPL, and nothing else (not being able to run Task29 or a flash a custom ROM is due to not being HardSPLed). Why flame the entire website, and the thousands of ROMs, CABs, and other stuff that people dedicate their time and hard work to accomplish?
If you are using Windows 7, you should not be using Active Sync, you should be using Windows Mobile Device Center.

This may be the problem. But HardSPL on Windows 7 is a known issue if you read the HardSPL thread. It works for some W7 user, and not for others. If this continues to be the case, your best bet is to find a XP machine and HardSPL from there. Other things, like flashing a custom ROM should work fine on your W7 machine (using WMDC).
