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.

LAST HOPE!

I'm having a mare....my Artemis has died after a hard reset - just sits at bootloader. I can't flash any rom at all using RUU. All cooked roms fail after 3% with a "image corrupt" error and all original roms (wm5 and wm6 for o2 orbit) fail after 5% with "Flash Write" error.
I've also tried flashing from SD card....starts...but then fails on the validating certificate with an "SD FAT error" or sorts.
I know it's probably salvagable as I can get into bootloader....any ideas? People on forums are telling me to unlock using USPL...but because i cant get into the os to get activesync....it won't work.

a simular thing happens to me my one sits in a rgb screen and says ipl 3.04.0001 and spl 3.04.0000. none of the roms i used work ive just decided to leave it. if your ipl and spl is lower than mine i guess you will be more likley to get working again as people with the same ipl and spl as me cant get their one working

Try to go to bootloader and try to use it :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
If it work try to flash with any custums roms.
If you don't have this , you only can flash with officials roms. That's why you can't flash with custums roms

Thanks for this however I;ve been directed to that thread before and each time it's pointless. There is no point me attempting to USPL my device when I can't get an activesync connection due to the fact it has no OS bootable.
As for the official Roms...I've tried the ones that have been touted as official for the Orbit but with no effect.
My IPL SPL is currently 1.25.0001/1.25.0.000 but when i attempt to flash with official rom (!) it moves to the same as spikez - ipl 3.04.0001 and spl 3.04.0000
Anyone with any further help - ordered a new Touch HD but I need to get this one up and running
Thanks

have you tried sd card flash
make sure you put the orignal rom on the root of a none sdhc card (1gb or smaller) and is renamed to "Arteimg.nbh"
official wm5 rom
official wm6 rom
Simply put the phone in bootloader with your 'boot' card inserted and follow the instructions.

Spikez.....I've tried that before. It reads from the SD card....goes through the motions, and then provides an error after about 5-10mins saying "SD FAT update failed"
Any ideas...please reply if only to say "no chance mate"
Thanks for any help you can give me.

i still guess yours is more likely to be fixed than mine as mine just goes straight to the rgb screen can you take a picture of what appears on your screen.
Try use an none offical rom and does your artemis ask you to "update sd image press this key to start download"

unfortunately i've left my digi cam at work I can explain rather well though, bear with me:
I reset the device with SD card in and I get a white screen saying "Checking SD Card" - there is then an arrow asking me to hit volume key to flash...I do that.
I get 5 mins of "Reading from SD" at the bottom of the white screen. Following that I get a "verifying certificate" message and then about 10seconds later a "SD FAT update failed!!!" message...it then just sits there until I press a key on the device and then it falls back to bootloader (multi coloured screen)
this MUST be fixable by somebody who isn't a noob like me - any ideas?

either try add these files into root of sd card
Enterbootloader.exe
rapitool.exe
RomUpdateUtility.exe
RUUGetInfo.exe
RUUREsource.dll
RUU_USPL_Signed.nbh, and
"Arteimg.nbh"
or try once in bootloader plug in usb and try using a ruu

files didn't work...just went straight through to bootloader as opposed to reading SD card. As for launching the RUU through windows...didn't work either. Bombed out after 5% with a "FLASH WRITE " error

as your ipl and spl is so high i guess you may have a Brick i cant seem to get my one working either as i earlier stated it is very common that people with this ipl and spl cant seem to get theirs back working.

True but as can be seen from that post...mine shifts from 1.25 to 3.04 depending on the flash attempt?

my best suggestion to you is stick with it. Try read through this sign up and post here andrew, bill, [email protected] and noney82 very helpful read through see if that post is any use.

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

it displays

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

Sixthsigma...you said - "unlock the device properly with USPL..." - how do I do that?
I got the same error as mentioned when trying to flash using the numb3rs ROM:
http://thewingster.com/numb3rs.aspx
I ran the herald-uspl.exe file. and ended up with teh above error. My TMo Wing has the original ROM on it and the phone itself is probably unlocked. Ive had it for a year now. Do I need to call TMo to unlock or is there some app I can run to do this myself?
appreciate any help!

nevermind, it worked ok on the second attempt!

How to Flash HardSPL (Using Olipro 1.20) - USB or SD

Upgrade to Hard-SPL Olipro 1.20 - USB or SD Just Added SD Card Method at Bottom of this Post
10 Step Program
Pulled from Website dated: Monday August 06, 2007 by ??? if someone knows, I'll give credit.
Recovered and Updated Monday October 27, 2009 by SuperSport
because the WiKi has vanished
Hard SPL will allow you to flash cooked ROMs without SuperCID’ing your device and also will protect your device from being bricked in a bad flash. If a bad flash occurs it should remain in bootloader, and you can re-flash another ROM.
Caution!!! Flashing Hard-SPL will Probably Hard Reset your device!!!! Backup all data FIRST!!!
Before you proceed, check which SPL is on your device:
*** Enter Tri Color Screen ***
--Unplug your phone from USB - Helps to avoid freezing USB Ports
--Hold down the Power & Camera Buttons
--While still holding them down, press the Reset Button using the Stylus
--Release the Reset Button, but continue to hold the Power/Camera buttons until you see the Tri Color Screen
*** Enter Tri Color Screen ***
If your SPL is 1.30.Olipro, 1.20.Olipro, or 9.99 CP, then you already have Hard-SPL on your device and can skip flashing HardSPL, although, I recommend using Olipro 1.20 to avoid problems.
If you want to continue flashing Olipro HardSPL 1.20:
Press the Reset Button using your Stylus. Wait for your phone to start back into Windows. Plug the USB Cable into your phone and PC. Verify ActiveSync or WMDC is connected properly. Now you can Flash.
1. Download "Olipro HardSPL 1.20.zip" in attachment below
2. Unzip the Files, and Run the Program "Olipro HardSPL 1.20.exe" This is a small AutoFlash file I created using Olipro 1.20
3. Windows Vista and Windows 7 may confirm you want to run the program. Choose YES.
4. Check the check box, click ‘Next’
5. Also Check this check box, click ‘Next’
6. In the next window, click the ‘Update’ button
This will show the version number of the ROM, radio, or in this case bootloader that you are about to flash.
7. After the version number has appeared, click 'Next'
8. In the following window, click ‘Next’, your phone may ask if it's ok to run the program, Tap 'Yes'.
(After you click this, the flash will begin, so do not disconnect your device or do anything on your computer)
9. A Progress bar will appear on your computer screen, and your trinity will display a grey screen with progress bar. Be patient while your device is being updated. This will only take a moment.
10. Once your device is finished updating, if it did not automatically soft reset, Press the Reset Button with the Stylus. Click the ‘Finish’ button to exit the RUU program.
To confirm Hard-SPL is on your device, re-enter Tri Color Screen following directions above. You should see the following:
Hard SPL 1.20.Olipro
TRIN100
IPL-0.50 (your device may show IPL-1.00)
TRIN100 MFG
SPL-1.20.Olipro
CONGRATULATIONS!! You have now installed Olipro's Hard-SPL 1.20 on your device using USB Method!! Press the Reset Button with your Stylus to restart.
**********************************
Alternate SD Card Method
**********************************
For those who would rather use their SD Card for this (Maybe your USB Port is not functioning). For this method, the way I'm describing, your phone must be running a version of Windows Mobile. Can be any Version, 5-7. If your phone does not currently run, flash back the OEM ROM that came with it Originally. You can find some in my signature.
Caution!!! Flashing Hard-SPL may Hard Reset your device!!!! Backup all data FIRST!!!
1. Be sure you have a, Non-SDHC, SD Memory Card.
2. Be sure the card is formatted Fat32 and Without a Label.
3. Download the attached HardSPL SD.zip file and extract it's contents. Copy both files, SSPL-TRIN.exe and TRINIMG.nbh, to the Root of your SD Card.
4. On your phone, use File Explorer to browse to the Root of your SD Card.
5. Tap the SSPL-TRIN.exe file. This should run the file.
6. On some phones, you will see a security message come up. Select 'Yes' to run the program.
7. You should now see a Grey screen with Blue Lettering. It will be asking you to Press power button. Go ahead and press the power button.
8. You will see the update progress for a short moment, it will restart, and update again, then show "Update Complete - UPDATE SUCCESS" If you see this message, it has worked.
9. Press the Reset Button with your Stylus to Restart
10. Delete the two files from your SD Card (TRINIMG.nbh, SSPL_TRIN.exe). To confirm Hard-SPL is on your device, Enter Tri Color Screen following directions above. You should see the following:
Hard SPL 1.20.Olipro
TRIN100
IPL-0.50 (your device may show IPL-1.00)
TRIN100 MFG
SPL-1.20.Olipro
CONGRATULATIONS!! You have now installed Olipro's Hard-SPL 1.20 on your device using SD Method!! Press the Reset Button with your Stylus to restart.
Maybe if this could be Stickied?

Thanks, it's a very nice guide for Trinty users, clean and detailed, I also recommand using Olipro 1.20 and not 1.30 to avoid problems, especially with 6.5 roms the annoying "WLAN ERRROR" sometimes seen in bootloader mode ...
Yes, make this "Sticky"
Brds,
nAr

Thanks narshorn! Someone else posted this a long time ago on a WiKi I believe, and I just recovered what I could of the original web page and then rewrote it to work with my files. The original page was removed from it's server, so I grabbed as much of the cached version of it as I could, thus, I don't know who did the original.
Also, thank you for the confirmation of using Olipro 1.20 and not 1.30. That was my belief, and I've heard others, but I'm glad you confirmed.

Because stupid me forgot that if you don't have HardSPL on your phone, then TRI COLOR SCREEN flashing is not possible. Doh! FIXED above.
Thank you for bringing this to my attention. When I physically went through the steps, I forgot I still had HardSPL on my phone from previous.
I just went through the steps AGAIN after removing HardSPL, and verifed it works correctly as listed in Post #1.

thankz for promptly reply
btw, what d diff between HardSPL 1.20 and 1.30?

I've seen many reports that 1.30 caused issues. Olipro, 'the guy who made our Trinity's safe for Flashing', stopped updating the thread, but if you read it, you will find many users reporting problems and asking for the thread to be updated to go back to 1.20.
I've been using 1.20 since it was released, and have NEVER had a problem with it. And believe me, I Flash a LOT!!! I'm expecting my poor Trinity to catch fire any day now.

Oh... Thx for the tutor...that what i need now...

Good job someone remembered howto
Thanks for the reminder - managed to forget how to enter tri-colour screen in the three months since I last reflashed.

I need help here
I have tried each of the methods.
though your explanation and step by step instructins are very clear, istill can't seem to get Olipro's HSPL on my phone. in the case of using active sync, after it enters the tri color screen nothing happens again and the i get an error message (ERROR 260).
When i tried using the SD method, when i tapped the SSPL_TRIN file, it goes stright to the tri color screen ths is the information i have there
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
and for this reason i can seem to flash any rom with success each time it only gets to the tri colou screen and i get the ERROR 260 message.
Anyone with any idea on how i can fix this.

Did you copy the TRINIMG.nbh file to your SD Card also? Was your SD Card formatted FAT32 and No Label?
Using the SD Method, you do not need to be connected to your Computer. Copy both files to SD and do all work from phone.
Let me know if that works or not.

Only do this if you do not plan to flash any more Custom ROMs, and would like to stick with the OEM ROM (You may Brick your Phone if you flash from the Stock SPL):
Download the "HardSPL SD.zip " file from the first post.
Extract the files
Copy ONLY the "SSPL_TRIN.exe" file to your SD Card.
Run the "SSPL_TRIN.exe" file from your SD Card (This puts your phone into a special mode that will allow the HardSPL to be overwritten)
Now, your phone should be in bootloader mode with:
TRIN100
IPL_SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL_1.07.ds
At this point, you can flash your OEM ROM that includes the Original SPL and IPL.
I use this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?v5yjt1zvgjm

Your mobile screen is showing the correct information, with the exception of USB not showing. As soon as you get to the Tri Color Screen, try removing then reconnecting the USB connection and see if that makes any difference.
Also, when the Tri Color Screen comes up, does your computer ask to install a driver? If it does, be sure to allow that.

Glad to hear you are going. Now you are safe to flash custom ROMs.
Also, remember that each time you flash back to the OEM ROM for any reason, it replaces the HardSPL with the stock one. You will then need to flash the HardSPL back again. At least this is the case for the OEM that I use.

[Q] Touch Diamond not booting and ROM update not working

Hi all,
I wanted to put a new ROM on my Touch Diamond p3700, and managed to bust it.
I followed the MTTY guide from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
I got through the steps OK, but at some point, after restarting the device I noticed that it stop booting.
It would display only TOUCH diamond, and that's it. No other red numbers with RGD.
I tried a hard reset. Nothing. I also did a hard reset with a moviNAN format, and nothing. (though I think this might have made matters worse)
I tried a RUU, and it stays at 0% for a couple of minutes and then gives an error on the PC.
I tried an original ROM, but it says Not allowed for this Vendor ID (goes up to 1%).
I tried Hard SPL 1.24 a couple of times but this also stays at 0% for a couple of minutes and then gives an error.
I am totally out of ideas, but I'm only an extreme beginner, so I do hope there will be a solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

try with HSPL 1.93

hspl 1.93
Hi.
Thanks for the reply
I assume you're talking about this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9246383&postcount=2
I downloaded the archive, extracted it.
As I said, the phone doesn't boot, so I can't connect it to activesync,
but I did go to bootloader (red green blue screen), inserted the cable and showed USB.
Reading your steps I saw that I might have missed the hspl step inside the MTTY tut. So basically I did the mtty part without the hspl.
I connected the phone to the PC, it sais USB, I ran ROMUpdateUtility.exe, the grey screen appeared with 0%, stayed like that for 5 minutes and program gives an error that it can't communicate.

there is no HSPL step to perform in mtty mode. go to bootloader and report back the SPL version you have.
there is no reason you shudnt be unable to format. maybe you might need a jumpSPL if ur previous spl is hard spl-ed

In bootloader is says:
DIAM 100 64M
SPL-1.93.0000
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Diam STAGE_PVT v0x32

you are still having the stock SPL...
lets get you HSPL...give me a few minutes while i come with attachements and instructions

download+unzip to C:\ (recommended)
- connect ur device in bootloader mode
- dont do mtty at this stage
-run the DiamondCustomRUU.exe
report back

did u try flashing this HSPL?
whats ur current location so i can recommend a flash of stock rom.

I'm in Romania. My phone was locked on Vodafone.
What do you mean "flashing this HSPL"? This error I get when running DiamonCustomRUU.exe in the archive you posted. It starts the progress bar on both PC and phone, stays at 0% and after 5 minutes, it gives that error.

okay. download this. and run the diamond-sspl.bat
if it runs successfully and ur screen turns black...then run DiamondCustomRUU.exe again to flash SPL 1.93
if the batch file does not run let me know...
btw i wil be here till we can sort this out

I connected the device in bootloader. Shows USB.
I ran diamond-sspl.bat
and says:
Warning: no device connected.
Waiting for device to connect...
A window pops up, and says if I want to retry. Hitting yes just pops again.
So basically it says that it can't copy whatever it needs on the device because it's not connected. But the device is connected in bootloader and says USB.

okies....lemme make a cross check of the HSPL on my device and report back
in the meantime, do you have your STOCK ROM? the original rom that came with your device.
if you dont, but still know the rom version to download, check here....
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Diamond
in the event we cant proceed any further, atleast we can recover ur device to start up again with batch file...

Try this version of HSPL which allow a temporary SSPL on ur device in order to allow a transition of SPL..
as usual report back. this is the last step...after this if there is no progress we may have to resort to stock rom and then start at step 1.
btw HSPL 1.93 confirmed working on my device.

The same issue. Error 262.
Isn't the problem somewhere in the communication between the PC and device?
When I run ROMUpdateUtility.exe the device does go to the grey screen with progressbar at 0%, but that's about it.
I don't have my original ROM, and I don't know the version,
but I think this should be it
RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_EastEurope_2.03.479.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship.exe

You can try restarting your PC and then try to confirm any USB conenction problems.
But if on the device it appears USB in the bottom half of the bootloader screen it means the connection is okay.
Now this is a flash (see attachement) i only use as a last resort. If this doesnt flash, consider downloading the rom file you jus mentioned and flash it...
Download the attachment and run the .exe file. Follow the steps...if it works...try flashing any HSPL u have downloaded.
also try this link from htc.
http://www.htc.com/ro/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=133&cat=2&dl_id=483
input ur device serial (which is under ur battery) and see if u can download. this is more direct approach to download the correct rom file for ur device.

YES!
Fixed it.
I switched USB ports, left the default driver (2007, not 2004 as was said in MTTY), used the ROM I said above and it worked.
Thanks a lot for your assistance.

good!
and if ur up for another try. then start with the attachement HSPLwSSPL
dont do any mtty. jus try to see if u can flash HSPLwSSPL...
but if ur done for the day, i wish u a rest well earned.... hehe...
anyways feel free to drop a PM in my inbox shud u decide...
