My absolute favourite tool is WM5Storage. You can use your phone like an USB-Stick and i use it daily...
Are you searching for such a tool ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317726&highlight=Splash+Screen

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the reply, the problem is that I always get stuck after running the USPL tool, it goes to 100% then I see the Linux Pinguin screen, then i hear the 'disconnect' sound in vista, the rom flash utility starts, and then error 260 not connected. I suppose the USPL is not finished when the dos screen is finished, without ending the rom upgrade utility?
After the dos screen I also tried to plug out/in the usb cable, on the black screen, and start the rom utility manually to finish the USPL process, but no luck...
I tried the bootflash utility after the pinguin directly, but no luck either.
Searched the forums for likewise problems, but found no real clear solutions. Can anybody help me here?
Thanks in advance,
By the way, coolest bootscreen ever seen with earth

.... try
Have you hard-reset first? - Works great, and offen eliminates a lot of different problems (ore did for me anyway)

just tried and it's working...
to be honest.... i never tried to change the splash screen before, i just found the link about it....
But then i tried right now to change the splash with this tool, i first ran USPL and then when the phone was started again i could
upload my own splash screen with the replacement tool. Everything worked fine... no idea what went wrong on your device...
But i have also a question: is it possible to change the second logo and the windows-starting logo also ? How to do ?
Cheers Peter

O2 Orbit German to english

Hello friends,
I am not new but this is my first thread.
I have just bought a sim-free O2 Orbit from germany and it is working fine.
How can I turn the OS language into english? and I also get a failure connection to the internet since I arrived home in australia. it is 0x8007278.
Please the experts any advice is appreciated. thanks for sharing the science.
I was in the exact situation as you, this is how you change your ROM to English.
Get this program called USPL, it was created by a member of this bard called Bepe. Look on the first post for the program AND the instructions...read them.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
What this program does is it unlocks the phones carrier lock so that it will take a ROM that is not OEM.
Once you have this, look for the ROM you want to run, I can personally recommend Bepes WM6 or WM6 Black and Blue v3.
Bepes rom...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=309702
PDA Viet WM6 ROM (super freaking cool, way better than I thought it would be)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314568
Once you have these two things, put them all on the desktop for easy access, then run the USPL according to the instructions. You MUST have Active Sync installed, running and sync'd with your phone (plus its a great idea t have all your contacts backed up with Outlook). Once the USPL program has completed its process and the phone has restarted, you can then load any ROM you want. Simply plug in your phone via USB to your computer, then run the Rom Upgrade Utility that installs on your desktop when you download the ROM. It will show a progress bar, once you make it past 3 or 4 percent you know you are in the clear and the ROM will load right.
I cannot stress enough the importance of running USPL, if you dont you run an almost guaranteed risk of turning your phone into a cool looking paper weight.
If you follow these instructions, read a little in the Upgrading and the WM6 sections of this board, you will have an English phone in your hands by the time you go to bed tonight. Good luck and feel free to PM me if you need and help.
Oh and PS - For the data, once you have changed you ROM to English, you need to either find the settings or the CAB file for your data connection. Most of the time these can be found on your service provenders site, if not, run a search of this bard, almost anything you need - world wide - is on here somewhere.
THANK YOU Itschcase. your responce was brilliantly quick.
I was trying since yesterday. read most of the eplanatory threads. tried not to bother you again. but I am stuck at the USPL. after fist step the screen goes black or grey and the activeSync disconnects and it remains like that. if I continue the process nothing happened if I soft reset then continue I get error 270 "image file corrupted" and the pda reboots automatically and goes back to its state. tried 10 times. reinstalled my xp after formatting the computer. tried on my other computer vista . still no change.
any ideas please

error [260] message every time

Firstly I would like to say thanks to this site and the trinityguides.info site for the great work people have being doing and making available to everybody, it is great being able to use my trinity with wm6, keep the good work going!
Now the issue I seem to be hitting the same "error [260] connection" every time I attempt to update anything on my Trinity. I have followed the advice on the trinityguides site regarding being stuck in bootloader mode to no avail, and I can't seem to find anything in the posts on the xda site which will rectify the issue.
Previously I have been able to update to AX3L v2.8.01 version without any problems, but I decided to update to sammy's ultra light, it initially kicks into des' crashproof sspl, but then it can't connect to the pc. even when I manually enter olipro's hard-spl it does the same. I have tried to re-install hard-spl, but can't. Disconnecting the usb option in the activesync settings doesn't do anything either. Does anybody have any suggestions for me please?
I am not even too sure if my trinity should have both Des' crashproof and hard-spl on it at the same time? Could someone advise me on whether this is alright please?
the tech details:
Trinity
AX3L_OS_v2.0.8.2
radio - 1.46.30 (even though it doesn't say this in the device info, or boot screen after soft reset)
Home PC - XP (just in case)
Did you also try flashing it again, the ROM I mean. I have this error also but as soon as I execute the ROM flash again it finds the device and starts flashing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1449597&postcount=2
I am assuming you mean flash with the new ROM, sammy's in my case?
yes, as described in the link I posted before. As soon as the error occurs, do not touch the phone, leave it, just start the ROM flash procedure again. (execute ROMUpdateUtility.exe)
No, I am in the same situation. The first attempt puts the device in 'ipl-sspl by des' bootloader mode then after about 10 seconds or so the error[260] is displayed on the pc. If I exit the ruu app and attempt again, nothing new happens on the trinity (i.e. it is still in Des bootloader) and the message is displayed again.
the thing is that when it first goes into des bootloader mode, the white strip doesn't have any text in it. If I pull the usb cable out then put it back in, 'serial' is then displayed in the white bar, but I am still in the same situation as before.
What operating system en activesync are you using?
On the PC I am using XP and Activesync 4.5
Check your connection settings to accept USB connections. Also, try using Hard-SPL 1.30 before flashing the ROM again.

In your PC, try another USB connection.
BLOODY HELL!!! It is the simplest things which we often forget to try. Thanks Jotam for pointing out an obvious point, it must have needed a re-plug of the usb cable into another port for the pc to pick up the device again. I will remember that for future updates so I don't make a dumb ass of myself again. Thanks guys/gals.
Vista
Using Vista? if so which version?
Hi I asked this question yesterday, I am a noob :-[ but the only difference is I'm using Vista Ultimate.
Just for others who have the problem.
When you replug into another USB port (Luckly I've got two on my laptop..)
I used the Vista drivers from TrintyGuides and bingo !
now I try and flash a WM6.....English or Italian...maybe French.
Thanks for the help I keep you posted.
Richard
It works
Now to discover the joys of WM6 after only having WM5 for two weeks....
/i am getting the same only rom update 3.14.4.1 now sees the phone..
has the device name changed???
evene exploit no longer sees the phone
sorry, can you be a little more clear.. what ROM are you flashing, and what exactly is happening?
by the way... i thought error 246 was the connection error... am i mixed up? which is 260?
This seems to be on any rom bar the Dopod roms
and it says 260 connection error
Error 260 connection error - the phone is not going in to bootloader mode - and the RUU cannot seem to initiate communication with the phone.
I'm getting this a lot recently trying to flash.
However, Hold the power and camera buttons while resetting with the stylus (keep them buttons held down).
When you get to the bootloader - plug the phone in - wait till you see the USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen - then run the RUU again - it WILL work - every time.
I used to get this error message alot. sometimes the programs you install don't allow you to update even if you force the phone into bootloader mode so you have to hardreset the device and then upgrade.....hope this helps

Ok, let me see if i understand u correctly, your specs give me no new questions they look ok. U have WM5 and want to run a program (from your work) which needs WM6 (wont run on WM5). HTC told you about the official WM6 update. This wont flash as activesync crashes, right?
With an official Rom you will not need to unlock the CID/SPL with USPL. But this goes only when you stick to your current language. i.e. a german WM5 is not allowed to be flashed into english. To do this you will need to USPL-unlock it 1st.
If the language is the same, it should work. Best is to do a hard reset 1st (2 soft buttons and soft reset, wait and press green/send.) Afterwards hook it on the PC (activesync want to start a newe partnership, click cancel, so u will be connected as guest).
Start the rom upgrade. Activesync should close and bootloader on the ppc will be started. This is a screen with many colours/stripes, which is normal but looks very bad and different from normal bootup.
Then the flashing will start, the screen on the ppc will turn white/grey and a scale will show you the percentage of the flashingprocess (similar to the screen of the pc). Wait patentiently and do not toch the ppc or disconnect (or expect a bricked device).
At the end, the ppc will reboot and take a while (longer then normal bootup) to initiate the boot for the 1st time.
If this wont work, then try to extract the upload file, put the ppc in boatloader mode, connect to pc and start the romupdateutility.exe directly.
Good Luck!
hi,
i've flashed my HTC P3300 and it was done successfully (using USPL) but the language was Spanish, i searched a lot how to change it to english since i dont understand a word of it.
through one of the forums, i was told to set the SysLang = 1032 in registry to get the english language, i done so, now, the phone is stuck in Welcome (WM6.1) screen and nothing is happening, not even responding to power key.
I tried hard reset, it doesn't work, i tried entering to bootloader, it also doesn't work, also, i am not able to connect it to PC since i guess its not completed up.
Just got stuck with a brick, can you help please. Really needed!!!!!!
Thanks
Maybe flashing ROM from memory card may help. Search Artemis wiki for micro card ROM flashing.
Hello, I guess I'm having the same problem...tried to flash but something went wong and now I have my htc p3300 blocked with the multicolor screen. It does not work, so I don't understand how I could start flashing rom by memory card. Could you be a little bit more detailed? Thanks in advance

Newbie but I hope not !!! help btw !!!

I own a new blue angel...called by O2 II's
So, after i read ,again,and again...I have successed enter boot loader.
With white screen it's shown the version 2.07 and the line at the top "Serial"
(uhm, i use WM2003SE as the original pda when i purchase)
Ok, the problem now is, i can't flash anyrom (in Wiki and any rom i found)
After the line appear "Don't plug cable or craddle of ...." it's seem to verifie it's self... and then the line appear again "this tool is not support for this device".....and some error like that.
I was totally confused, how i made the thing go wrong? or just i missed something???
i make a soft reset, then hard reset and then 3 button together to get the white screen with no light, still see words such as: serial, version 2.0.7...
When i plug the usb cable , then the serial change into USB as usual.
As my experience,( Dopod810 and Qtek S200) everything is normal...
One problem too, i can't connect to PC with activsync (i tried any versions as possible)but itself avaiable on Boot loader...
All you understand what happen with me???
Please help me out of this. I want my Blue Angel is not the worst i got ...(i think it's possible go up to wm6???)
Finally, thanks you all for listening( reading this topic)
Yep, Happened to me too. Heres the fix.
The regular WM6 exe will give you an error everytime with the O2 IIs. Finally I printed out the WM6 directions, and also the Blue Angel for beginners and some other threads and found the answer.
You are in the right place (stuck in bootloader that is). Now you should be ready to load the OS. In the Upgrade folder you will find:
"MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe"
Run it and you will see the progress bars on the Windows screen and the dark XDA screen. Don't bother it - allow it to complete.
After it completed, I was unable to restart, soft reset, hard reboot. I think I actually had to take the battery off. When I powered it again I saw the Color Bars and knew it was good.
Good luck, Be careful. Try to be calm. I know when I was stuck in between Roms I was close to being a nervous wreck.
erh, one more message when i fkash rom...
This MaUpgradeUT novid erh something like this but this
" This tool is not support for my device" or somehow ...
I think i really stuck...
when itself verifie version of rom , i can't see both version appear on windows.
ie : version rom which is in PDA and version of rom which is in the OS i next to flash(want to flash).
So Confused . Anyway, thank for helping !!!
You are close!
Yea,
I Kept getting that too. Couldn't see both versions. Got a couple of different error messages. you are right where I was. you've got to find the upgrade exe. in one of the folders. My IIs was stuck in bootloader and I started that upgrade and it skips checking the IIs first and just begins to xfer the data.

Jamming at Welcome screen... Please HELP...

PLEASE HELP...
My uni will boot normally, it'll show the Welcome screen, then go blank with the backlight on and the green colour of the window 5.0 welcome screen.... Is there anyway to sort this out? It's really messing with my business!! Now I have to whip out my lapton every frikking 20mins to check my mail. Something that was automatic on my uni, just got prompts.
Anyone with the knowledge on how to sort this out. Please reply as fast as possible!!!1
Wiki!
Please read wiki.
Posts such as Stuck at bootloader screen.
Get mtty.
Do DOC format.
Flash an original WM5 ROM.
Then flash any UNI ROM you like.
Probably no way to recover the data unless your PC recognises your Uni.If it does,save PIM and do the above stated.
But please read wiki.No ready-made answers here.
I hope it is not a hardware problem.
so can you use you device or not??? coz mostly who get stuck in bootscreen doesn't have backlight on and no welcome screen... try flashing to another rom and see... and please try to explain in more detail what exactly is your problem....
