Universal dead after failed upgrade - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

First, I would like to thank everyone on this forum for valuable information. I have been able to flash a Blue Angel and more recently a Universal (SPV M5000) with a Jasjar, O2 and Qtek ROM.
I have researched the forum but have not found any answer close to my problem.
After the lastest update (O2 Exec just released), I did not reset the unit properly and now my screen is completely dead/blank. I tried to reflash but it is no longer recognized (will not power back up)
No possibility in putting in Boot loader mode (power+light+reset) or doing a hard reset (the 2 _ and reset).
has anyone experienced this and can I revive it, at least, bring it back to a boot loader so I can reflash? Thank you to all :roll:

JASJAR always go to bootloader mode - how to fix it?

I downloaded the Dopod 900 rom, wishing to change my PPC into Traditional Chinese. But after running the no id exe file. It reboot my PPC and said the country ID is not correct.
Afterwards I run the bootloader.exe on JASJAR. And it automactially go to bootloader mode. I'm able to upgrade my PPC rom. But after the cold reboot the system go to bootload mode (ask me to insert serial or USB cable). How can I get PPC work?
you always have to start your device in bootloader mode manually before upgrading.
as you didn't, special bit in the device was set, to start it always in bootloader mode now.
rerun the upgrade with MaUpgradeUtil_noid.exe again. it will fix it.

Reflash the Jasjar again. But use the Radio Rom 1.04.02 only. Then do a reset.
Is here nobody who can read?!
Here is the answer how to solve the problem:

Or if you're unable to open the link:
make the update w i t h o u t any card (sd-card and sim-card) and you'll see: it works. Maybe you've to run the update twice without changing anything!

Hi,
I had a similar problem, system and unit both indicated a successful ROM flash but after the reset remained in bootloader mode ("Serial v1.00).
In the end I did a final JasJar ROM flash, then did the radio only ROM flash and after radio done, a reboot worked.
Maybe try the 1.04.02 radio only ROM flash and see if that works.
Note: during the last two ROM flashes I too had removed the SIM and SD cards.
Note: I had removed the SIM and SD cards for a number of ROM flashes prior to that, so I know how you feel finding out that wasn't the quick fix I read. But try all that in combination.

most of the time reviving a dead universal is easiest with another rom upgrade of the radio flash.
If your universal boots in usb mode (bootloader), I can confirm your universal is dead. Mostly caused by using an upgrade program that was not made for the universal. For instance using a cracked magician upgrade program to force universal upgrades. In most cases this will get you a dead universal which can easily be repaired by doing an aditional radio rom upgrade (even if you already have that radio upgrade)
Hi,
I can confirm that in the 2 instances of bricking my device (unable to get out of bootloader mode) that the radio only upgrade (1.04.02) got it working again.
I've done this for both the JasJar and Qtek ROMs (currently running Qtek).
My unit is a Dopod 900 originally purchased in Taiwan.

i had the same problem with the QTEK of my principal after I upgraded his ROMs.
(after the hard reset, the pocket remained in bootloader mode).
you can solve this problem in a very simple way:
you have to launch the bootloader installation (BL1.01_RUU_UNI_V.1.2.EXE) from the PC (still connected with the PPC through USB) while the PPC is in bootloader mode (on your display you see "USB > Serial 1.01" or something like that).
then you do a SOFT reset and the pocket boot normally.
very simple.
i hope to be helpful to someone.
Yep, i agree with u parallel666killer, it worked by just reinstalling the bootloader (BL1.01_RUU_UNI_V.1.2.EXE).

XDA EXEC upgrade wont work - Serial V1.00

I have a problem flashing my O2 XDA exec. After double-clicking the EXE supplied by O2, it now just sits at an unlit screen with "SERIAL v1.00".
I've tried a hard reset (the two dashes and reset), but it still wont come back to life.
Any Ideas?
I had the exact same problem with my Tmobile MDA pro. When you plug in the usb cable the serial should change to usb. If not trying taking the battery out doing a full reset and putting the battery back in then do a soft reset. If you can get to the stage where you see it change to usb when plugged into pc your in bootloader mode still and all is functioning correctly. Try sending the firware update again. I was flashing to the Imate firmware and must have tried about 6 times before it worked. Each time on the pc follow the instructions if it errors and asks for a soft reset, just keep trying. In the end i got the firmware to flash succesfully but coulldnt get out of bootloader mode. So instead I just kept trying Radio 6.0 firmware only and it worked after the 4th time. I did a full reset my MDA Pro rebooted succesfully and ive never been so happy. Good Luck hope your outcome is as happy.

Upgrading X50v from 2003 SE to WM6. Help please!!

Hi! I found this forum today, and decided to upgrade my X50v to WM6, from PPC2003SE. I got to the bootloader, and I successfully installed the WM5 bootloader. However, when the WM5 upgrade is done, the ppc won't turn on!! I have followed directions, and just after the upgrade is done and I get the message, i do a hard reset (reset + power), my x50v turns off and... stays off!!
What am I doing wrong???
Thanks for your help guys!!
I can still get to the bootloader...
Hello, I was in your boat an hour ago, so I'll try to help
you need to rename the "K" files with the prefix "DiMa" to "WM50" and that should make them show up in the sd loader. You will need some other SD card reader to do this of course.
they aren't showing up now because your new loader is now looking for the new prefix.
hi have you solved your problem? I have the same problem and my PDA is now laying on the table - not working of course can you help what to do and where can I find the bootloader and other software for that pda? thank you. Flea. please email me: fleateam(a)gmail.com
I can load the SD Image loader, and even run the new wm5 image from the SD card. Everything is done correctly, however when it comes to hard reset the axim, it just turns off and never restart. It is using now the new bootloader since the wm5 bootloader was upgraded successfully.
I'll give it a try by renaming the DiMa files.
After you flashed the boot loader is perfectly normal that your x50v won't turn on. If you correctly flashed the bootloader to the new WM5, your Axim cannot boot WM2003SE anymore. So you have to start bootloader again to upgrade the O.S. ROM section. After that you should have no problem...

Flashing problem

Had a bit of a nightmare yesterday flashing beasty's latest rom.
Soft resetted instead of hard and was stuck on splash screen. I got out of it using MTTY and reflashing the Official Orange WM5 rom. Problem now is that despite having unlocked the phone again I can't seem to reflash. Any attempt to reflash fails, despite everything appearing to go well. After a hard reset I am greeted with Orange WM5. Suppose I should just be thankful that I haven't bricked my pride and joy!
Any thoughts would be welcome.
Cheers guys.
Sorry guys.
Should also say that depsite the rom not flashing. The radio has??

Diamond Stuck up at the welcome screen

Dear Sir
My diamond got stuck up at the welcome screen or else in the alignment screen. I've flashed many roms number of times before but this time this happened after a hard reset- using Macadam 1.2 (latest).
My bootloader reads - Diam140 MFG 64M; SPL-1.40. Olinex. After this I've flashed back to the latest indian stock rom i.e. First to (RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_India_1.93.720.4_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_ShiP) but know result & (RUU_Diamond_hTC_Asia_India_1.93.720.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.07_Ship_R). After going through the forums- I understood that I've to step down to stock spl. But even after successful flashing, the boot loader shows the same- "SPL-1.40.OliNex".
I'm unable to use the jump SPL, because I can't pass through the alignment screen. Please help, is there any way to JUMP SPL without operating the phone.
Or else how can I come back to the stock spl.
Please Help.........................

Furthermore, I've tried using mtty to following the procedure:
Correct sequence is as follows:-
1. Launch ActiveSync on PC
2. Go to connection settings
3. Uncheck the Allow USB Connection
4. bring the device to bootloader. AND connect to the PC.
5. Now, run mtty1_1_.42_538 on PC.
6. CMD>task 29
7. Flash the ROM of your choice
Then flashed the stock rom again. But the problem remained.
jockyw2001 - suggested me on PM to do- "in mtty: set 16 0 then reboot'- but nothing happened. Or I didn't follow the correct steps... can anyone explain & help please....
[UPDATE]where do I get the commands for mtty
Can anyone tell me the link where I can get the commands to be used in mtty... Is there anyway to bypass the screen alignment part during start up after a hard reset.... how can I JumpSPL in a handset where the touch screen is not working.. but the screen is not completely dead, i.e. on tapping the "+" sign is moving after around 5 or 7 mins of the tap...
Please help guys.... I'm waiting to be rescued by some WM wizard from this great community.....
Regards
