I tried to make an update with the file JASJAR_WWE_11353_137_10301
Suddenly the Display stop et 99% of the extended Rom Update and on my monitor was an infomation like "an error happend"
After this, nothing else happend .
Yes, realy nothing happens anymore. I cant start the device not with power, not with reset or with power+reset
nothing nothing nothing
What can i do
If i start to try a new update, it schows me no information about what rom etc. is installed or what will be installed. if i then start i get the notice, that it is the wrong device.
Help me please. ist there any way to put the mda back to live?????
I guess i dont only need an update but the complete software
HELP!!!
I have the exact same issue after the upgrade. Nothing will happen. I spent several hours trying resets, combination of button pressed, removed battery, resets, just to try to get back the boot loader mode but nothing is happening.
there has to be a way to do this and I hope someone on this board had that issue before and got it resolved.
I had a similair issue with my old XDA II, it turned out my storage card was corrupted. Use a card reader to check your storage card is OK, perhaps format the storage card (having saved any data first of course) and see how you fare
Have had the same problem wirh a radio ROM update on my QTEK9000. The anly thin that still worked was the hard reset. After the hard reset the device still did not respond. But when i connected it to the PC I could start the updateprocess of the original ROM. I took about 20 minutes for the whole procedure and than the Qtek9000 was back in factory default (Pffff and I could breath again).
So perhaps you can try a hard rest and then connect aganin to the PC.
I allready tried this!
But nothing happens.
Even if i put the power device or the usb into the mda, no LED schows anything. just sometimes the LED is red for not more than a minute. if it then goes out, i get the message "Unknown usb device" in my PC
Are you in bootloeader mode? Do you see the words USB or Serial on the screen of the Universal in Portrait mode. Note: Backlight is off so you have too look real hard, but it should be there
no, i see nothing.
I had quite a hard time yesterday while upgrading. The bootloader is very hard to see, use a torch to lite up your display. In portrait view on the top should be the word serial or usb, on the bottom v1.00.
I also did a hard-reset in this stage, but it just returned to the bootloader menue.
If I connect to the PC and the device is recognized I see the word serial in the display change to USB. For me I do not know the reason but my PC did not want to fulfill the upgrade process. Needed to take another PC (Laptop) to solve the problem. After the upgrade of the ROM, You still need to upgrade the Radio (this was my experience) before a cold-reset will put You back to business.
Good luck.

Having the exact same problem as gary_b and having performed quite a few upgrades, I can confirm there is absolutlely nothing on the screen. The unit will not go into bootloader mode or even able to do a hard reset. It is not recognized when plugged in the USB.
When connected to power and the hard reset procedure is done, the red charging light will come up for less than 1/2 seconds and disappear.
I tried all different combination to make it boot but nothing. If I could at least get it to bootloader more, I can revive it.
Feel very bad I cannot help here.
I was wondering Yesterday about one thing. IF, during all this upgrading process, the battery runs out, (as it does not seem to charge during upgrade process) will it show bootloader screen ?
Would it be possible to get a loaded battery from somebody to check yours ?
That is a good suggestion to try out, but I have been unable to find anyone that has that device. It might be simply a drained battery.
Mine got corrupted I think at the end of the upgrade right after I did a regular reset instead of teh power and reset procedure.
However, I would think that even with no battery in, the unit should power back up when plugged in no?
Maybe an idea for somebody who is doing upgrading now, and is in bootloader status anyway.
Take out the battery, but connect with USB to PC with ASync. Does the bootloader state show ?
I am sorry to not do it for myself, if You saw my desperate state Yesterday, You will believe that I am not willing to see that bootloader screen for some time, sorry.

now i know what to do:
Nothing!!
I went to a service-point with my mda pro and there was nothing to do with it.
If this happens the complete memory is "killed". Like "format c:" and while format is running you switch out the power.
Thanks god: I got a new MDA pro because i did not tell them (in the store)that i tried an update!
But i called the service-line before anf they told me that there is nothing to do!
But thx
Wow, can't say that this is good informatuin for those with this problem, but very glad it worked out for You.
I ve had this problem 5 minutes ago. Finally a took out the battery. Then connect to AC and Red led is on. Then i put the battery, tried hard reset and message to confirm hard reset in the screen (wellcome to life, jasjar).Then i run radio update again and it's upgrading rigth now....buffffff
I almost suffered a heart attack when this happened an hour ago. Have found that the update works fine if the SD card is taken out... phew.
Please help!
I just upgraded my ROM to Ivan's latest AKU3.5 from bootloader
This completed successfully (100% successful, disconnect and restart etc)
I disconnected and reset, except it was stuck in bootloader mode
I tried the Mtty method (for the first time ever) and followed the step by step instructions...
...after a few seconds a few command lines appeared with "USB>" on the last line
I took this to mean the process had finished (?), disconnected the device from USB and tried a soft reset
the device just stayed stuck in bootloader
next, i downloaded uni_exitbootloader and ran it (as this has worked for me many times in the past). it didn't work the first few times, but i disconnected and reconnected and this time it worked. It said "data sent, you can now reset your device"
This maybe where i went wrong?
I foolishly reset the device before disconnecting it from the USB. The PC immediately said "USB device not recognised" and the screen of my Universal went blank
Now, if i soft reset, it does nothing, i cannot even put it back into bootloader using the camera, on, reset button combination.
HOWEVER, if i press the two soft keys (as if i was going to do a hard reset) i get the white screen with the black text saying "Press 0 to restore etc"
If i press 0, it says "clearing" but the screen just goes blank
If i press x, the screen just goes blank
Now i am completely unable to try and use either mtty or exitbootloader as my PC just says "USB device not recognised" and neither applications run as they should
QUESTION: Have i totally bricked my Universal?!
If not, what can i possibly do...???
As usual, i will be extremely greatful for any advice or assistance to resurrect my favourite Pocket PC!
Thanks in advance for your help.
Aaagh! I think i just realised what i did...
1. I didn't read the posting "For all those stuck in the bootscreen, try the Mamaich method" carefully enough. I didn't realise that the Mamaich method totally erased the ROM!!!
2. By not flashing a new ROM to the device immediately and instead using exitbootloader to exit the bootloader screen i now have a device that has no ROM and probably has no way of knowing how to get into bootloader mode.
Can someone confirm this?
For one, i feel like an idiot for not reading the posting carefully, but having admitted to being stupid,...
... is there anything at all i can do???
Please help...
cancel that, you already said what i was going to ask above
have you try to flash it again with original ROM? sometimes it helps!
Once in bootloader mode, try plugging it into a different USB port, one directly on the PC.
I have had this where one port says not recognised, even after having been plugged in and used for ages, then I go to flash it and it won't work.
Another port has worked for me.
Since you ereased the DOC, all you've got to do now is to reflash the default ROM.
Thanks everyone...
Only problem is, i cannot get it into bootloader mode. And every port i plug it into (so far) says "device not recognised"...
Nevertheless, i did try to reflash the device, but it just gave me the "Error 150" message. It just doesn't know the device is connected i guess?
I think if i hadn't done the Exitbootloader step then i would have been able to reflash it. However, now that i have... i'm a bit stuck... any ideas of other ways to get the device into Bootloader mode?
try
you already know there is a file called EXITBOOTLOADER but did you know that here is a file called ENTERBL ?
try it .....
Thanks dhob187!
Where might i find this file though? Did you mean to attach it?
Just one other question...
How does ENTERBL work if the PC doesn't recognise my device i.e. "USB device not recognised"? Will the application override this and push commands to my pocket pc anyway?
Or is there a way i can get my PC to stop rejecting the device when i plug the USB in?
Thanks in advance,
I believe this is the file u needed
i don't know how this utility works, but just yesterday i stuck in the bootloader after upgrading my uni to AKU 3,5 and solved with ExitBootloader.exe. CMIIW it works the same way, just plug the USB cable then execute the utility (just simple as that).....
but have u tried my earlier suggestion? my friend got the exact problem like you (blank LCD not even bootloader), he was downloaded the original EXEC ROM and try to flash with it (with original upgrade utility also). and the thing start to blink, enter the bootloader and flashing!.....after he manage to wake the device up, then he tried to flash it again with the newest ROM and succeded........
sorry for my english.....
Please don't apologise for your English, thank you for your suggestions!
I didn't quite understand your initial post... but i do now.
Does it have to be the first ROM that it was shipped with or just an original i-mate JasJar ROM?
I can't try it now, but i'm excited to go home and give it a go later tonight... what's more i'm excited at the prospect that there may be some hope for my currently rather expensive paperweight!!!
If the aforementioned doesn't work, i'll try using your attachment.
Cheers again!
it doesn't have to be the first rom that shipped with your imate, just an original one. try your luck then! never give up, keep the faith!!!
sorry, forgot one thing, just ignore the USB error (not recognized) and go for the upgrade (execute the original upgradeUt.exe)
Hi Rudy173.
Thanks for your help, but unfortunately nothing has worked
I have tried running two official JasJar Roms without success... i always get the connection error message (this is surely because the PC always says "device not recognised" when i plug it in).
Also, when i run ENTERBL.exe i just get a failure saying that ...ENTERBL.exe is not a valid WIN32 application... etc...
So unfortunately, i'm still stuck... any further suggestions anyone?
Can the i-mate service centre help me? Is it likely to be expensive?
Back in business )
Wow, not entirely sure what i did... but my Universal is ALIVE!!!
As per the previous post, nothing seemed to be working so i removed Activesync 4.5 beta and reverted to 4.1. I then tried to reflash to an original ROM and the same "connection error" problem happened.
However, next time i tried to enter bootloader, by pressing light, on/off and reset, it went straight into bootloader and i was able to reflash from there
I didn't even need to reflash with an original i-mate ROM. I went straight for Ivan's latest.
This experience has taught me a few things:
1. I have become seriously attached to my Universal!
2. You should never give up hope of retrieval!!
3. This forum is full of very nice helpful people!!!
Thanks everyone.
wow! glad to hear that!
Happy ending....................
Hi guys,
recently my friend's MyPhone S-line (Polish version), was full with weird apps and it was impossible to operate with it at all, so I wanted to help him and flash new fresh S-line ROM. I downloaded all necessary drivers, I found the ROM I needed and used the SP flash tools. Before that I formatted the phone (option "without bootloader"), and flashed the ROM. After flashing it, the phone ran perfectly fine, but was unable to make any calls. It was not recognizing the SIM. After more reading and tries I ended with completely dead phone. I did this, when I tried to flash one more time the ROM (don't ask me why), but this time formatted it together with the bootloader. After the format, the PC couldn't find the phone at all. All drivers are installed, but the only reaction after plugging the phone is appearing some network adapter "Alcatel Single RNDIS Interface #2", which from time to time appears with "!" mark. I tried to take out battery, press continuously volume + and plug it, insert battery and so on, but simply nor the PC neither the SP flash tool get any signs of life from the phone. So to summarize: after formatting all (including bootloader), the phone stopped responding. Any key combinations don't work.
I tried couple of youtube advices, but non of them were about completely dead phone.
And here are my 2 questions:
1. Is it possible to get back the phone to life and how?
2. If I manage do so, how to make it run the SIM again?
the phone: MTK6589, 1GB RAM, 4GB ROM, running Android 4.2.1 (last applicable version).
Thanks in advance!
The phone when trying to boot is stuck on the samsung logo. it doesnt progress past this. pressing and holding the power button makes screen go black and then it just returns to the samsung logo again when power button released.
Originally factory
reset phone... no difference,
wiped cache... no difference.
Got it to register in Odin. Odin crashed and hung part way through.
Now... computer doesn't recognise phone (drivers all installed)
Phone still stuck on samsung logo
Can't put in a file on SD card as it doesn't have option to install from zip from SD (think it was standard ROM and not rooted so doesn't have this ability from what I understand.)
Can get into recovery menus and download mode, however as PC can't recognize the phone can't do anything with it.
Anyone have any idea how I can make the computer recognize the phone so I can attempt to reflash it?
Many thanks
I have just gotten a new cable. The phone has been accepted by my computer with this new cable and I've now used the files on this forum to help flash the phone. This site is fantastic. I know noone has mentioned a response to this yet, however the ROM files accessible make it so easy from here. Thanks so much.
Hello everyone! I hope you're doing well. I'm new here and I'm facing a problem that I can't seem to solve, so I'm here to ask for your help.
CONTEXT: My girlfriend had a phone whose screen broke. She couldn't afford to buy a new one, and neither could I help financially. But I had two old devices: a Motorola G1 (which I used to store some things and do simple tasks) and a Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus, which was the one I was using. Since I had just graduated from college and she hadn't, she had a greater need than me for a slightly better phone. So I gave her my Lenovo and I'm using the Motorola. When the Lenovo was still with me, I had put a custom ROM on it from Lineage (I think it was Android Nougat, if I'm not mistaken) and it also had TWRP. Before giving it to her, I only did a quick format of the phone.
A few days ago, there was a problem with the Lenovo and Android no longer worked. The phone turned on, entered the Lineage boot screen, but when it tried to turn on Android, a message appeared saying that Google's text-to-speech had continuously failed, and the phone turned off. She brought it to me yesterday and I thought about installing the original stock ROM on the device. With difficulty, I managed to get the laptop (Windows 10) to recognize the phone when it turned on. The difficulty was because when I tried to turn it on, the screen kept flashing on the Lenovo. I opened the device, took out the battery, waited for a while, and miraculously managed to turn it on. When it turned on, the laptop installed the device before it turned off. Through ADB, I managed to get the device to reboot directly to recovery, since I couldn't access recovery through the physical buttons on the device.
So, I managed to make a backup of the files that were important to my girlfriend and that were on the phone's internal memory. After that, I formatted the device through TWRP using the "format data" button. Still, I used the wipe to erase everything except for "USB-OTG" and the memory card option (which I had removed along with the SIM card before trying the procedure). After that, I restarted the phone to enter TWRP directly.
PROBLEM: After doing this, I tried to install the stock ROM using ADB sideload, but it said there was something wrong with the image I was using. The sideload gave an error message and said that the phone needed to be restarted. I restarted it from this screen by sliding my finger to the right, and... the phone no longer turned on and wasn't recognized by the laptop! I can't access TWRP through the physical buttons (at least not through the traditional method I know, which is the volume up button and the power button), ADB doesn't recognize the phone, and I don't know what else to try.
QUESTION(S): How can I force the laptop to recognize the device so that I can make it reboot directly to TWRP, since the device doesn't turn on for long enough for Windows to try to check the drivers? Or has TWRP been corrupted? If so, how can I install TWRP again? Is there any other way to access recovery? Is there any other way I can use to install the stock ROM? We can't afford to take it for repair at this time (the situation here in Brazil is very bad), much less afford to buy a new device. Does anyone have any other ideas on how I can access recovery or how I can install a ROM without necessarily turning on the device? Or any other ideas?
I really appreciate anyone who read this far and, in advance, I thank anyone who can help me. Gratitude!
