hi,
i'm a newbie, and yes i have screwed up.. performed (or should i say.. almost performed) my rom update on my desktop (which is kinda slow PC...) i had no applications or unwanted services running, my computer. The Progress on the Rom update (the desktop couterpart) had incremented and had become full (the progress bar i mean..) and it was nicely sitting there for about two hours with no indication of any further progress (yeah just wanted to make sure it wasnt me being hyperactive or in a hurry )
On the PDA it was a different story.. the screen indicated a 100% copy of some image file and then it was stuck at "Reset Hermon" stage. )for the record, i feel like a parrot now, these words dont really make sense to me.. )
So i removed the cable, battery and booted up my phone after about ten minutes... yup, just like i had expected it got stuck at the bootloader screen.
Now obvisously, my Rom update wizard wont work, as the very first step is to check for a existing Active Sync Connection. and Activesync is not a application tht recognizes phones connected in their bootloader mode...
Now i have no idea about trying to flash thru the memory card, i tried copy pasting all the files that the Rom update file had generated in the desktop folder it was run in(about 4 exe files that are supposedly 'not a valid 32-bit application' and two .abi files.. one of the abi file is 85 mb, so i guess that was the image file.. but when i copied these files into the memory card and re booted my PDA, it didnt show any change, as in it still asked me to connect the USB cable and was trying to get the image from there..
I have a o2 xda zinc. yeah, with no Operating system ..
to say that help would be appreciated is a understatement
damn, contacted the o2 support guys, but i have this feeling that this (forum ) would be a faster way to know if i have to drop my phone at the 'collection center' or not. i am still optimistic as the phones under warranty and its just a software glitch. Please enlighten me. what are my options?
hi
my o2 zinc has the same problem just like yours
if your zinc fixed or any thing new pleas tell me
tnx

My grey screen says USB v2.07. I tryed to update the radio to 1.13... I copied the EnterBl.exe over to the Siemens SX66 and executed it. It blinked and then turned off. Then it came back on and displays USB when on the cradel and Serial when removed. I cannot get it to do anything now. Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks,

you are stuck in bootloader mode. just run the setup for rom upgrade/restore for your device and it should work. I think a hard reset will also allow it to reboot into normal mode, but not sure.
Defiant XDA
I cannot seem to get it to reset nor be recognized by the computer when it is placed in the cradle. It will chime as it is placed in the cradle, yet the charging light no longer ignites and the hot-sync program on my WinXP pc does not indicate that they are connected any more.
Thank you for your time!

restore the original ROM. I had this issue after I run a defrag on my "Storage" folder using Storage Tools. I could not reset it. Also, upgrade with higher ROM did not work.
You have to restore / setup using original ROM version. Good luck!
Follow this link, download the update and follow through the instructions.

original rom
Does any one has the original rom for the ph20b my son messed it up
\if any one can send it via email or a link will be helpfull
thnx
Another Possible Solution...
This has happened to me numerous times when upgrading to various ROM versions and through experimentation I finally realized that it was related to my storage card. I also remember reading another post like this where this problem can occur if the storage card is on the large side (>= 1GB ).
Just take out the card and reconnect to the cradle and you should be able to flash again.
Hope this helps
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.
Hi guys.
I was using the installed the FInixNOver 3.0.1 ROM onto my SPV M700 and it was great. I've had it for about 2 weeks without any problems.
Last night I looked at my phone, only to realise that it was completley dead. This didnt shock me to much because the battery was running low, and i decided to let it die completley before recharging it again.
I charged my phone overnight and switched it on this morning, but the phone would freeze at the 'FInixNOver' splash screen (the numbers at the bottom of the screen would appear overlaying the splash, but the phone wouldnt go pass this point).
The only way to turn off the phone from this state is to eject the battery. I have tried removing the sim card, turning it back on in as many ways as possible but to no avail. I am able to get to the TriColor test screen (im running IPL-0.50 / SPL-1.30.Olipro) but with all the custom roms available, they all use the ROMUpdateUtility which requires the phone to have established an activesync connection initially (but this would mean my phone would have to be 'on completley' - so this is catch 22.)
For the record, my phone/battery died while my wired handsfree was attached (dunno if thats of any interest to anyone or the rom baker).
But it looks like the only way i'll be able to flash my phone is by finding a way to install the .nbh file without using the RUU method. Because I can put my phone into test mode manually.... any help or guidence would be very much appriciated.
Thanks.
Ok can you get it into bootloader? power/camera buttons and reset?
sorry didnt read fully.
right get your device into bootloader first,
then open active sync (are you using xp)
then open connection settings and disable usb connection,
put your device into bootloader mode, then run any rom upgrade, i prefer the WM6.1 pdaviets from HERE (Username: PDAVIET / Password: pdaviet)
Your pda does not need active sync with ruu's, so no catch 22. if you turn off usb connection in active sync, you can still run ruu and it will be recognised, unless you are using vista, where you need to change your HTC SYNC drivers.
Thanks for your quick response...
Yes I can get into boot loader using the power and camera buttons (or holding the power and camera buttons when resetting the phone)...
When the phone is in boot loader mode, active sync doesnt even detect the phone anyway, but nevertheless, I have followed your instructions and disabled the USB Connection. (BTW, yes i am using XP)
The phone is still in boot loader mode, so now i try and execute the ROMUpdateUtility.exe and go through the steps, at the 1st step i tick the tickbox and click next, and the 2nd step i tick the tickbox and click next. (this step says DO NOT enter the bootloader manually? - but i have havent i?) anyway, when i click next, it says... "Verifying the information on your Trinity... Please Wait..." for about 10 seconds, and then i get a message "ERROR [260] : CONNECTION"
What am i doing wrong?
Huumm.. why dont you flash your phone throw the sd card??

I would recommend this option above, to be safe, i usually get them error messages when the battery is below 50% or sometimes i try it again and it works. it does state do not manually enter bootloader but i always do it this way.
also make sure active sync is not still running in taskmanager under the alais: wcescomm.exe and WCESMGR.exe, end them both.
I've just tried using an official ROM, but the problem still occurs with the 'connecting'. It doesnt seem that the computer picks up a connection to the phone whatsoever.
Should i be concerned that at the bottom of the bootloader screen it says "serial", is this correct?
Im starting to get annoyed now.
Bye,
the bottom of the sreen mast say "usb" not serial.
it seems there is a problem, if it states serial. as it should say usb. try THIS
Seems like the problem was that my USB lead was loose and made a bad connection, hence why the bootloader showed 'serial' and not 'usb'... as soon as i wiggled it and heard the 'connection noise' in windows, i knew i was good to go, and so using the RUU worked fine to reupdate my phones ROM.
Thanks for your help.
My only question is that why did it happen in the first plave?
WIZZKID - I just saw your post here now. I have to tell you that I also saw "SERIAL" at the bottom of the bootloader screen and not "USB". As I said I returned it to get another phone but maybe I will try something else for now instead of a P3600i. I will monitor your thread to see how it turns out for your phone, because it seems that we have the same problem.
if you see "serial" instead "usb" your problem is in the usb cable, usb port from your computer or in the usb connector from your trinity!!!!!
I was having the same problem that you have!! my problem was from my usb from mine trinity!! see if the conector is at good conditions !!!
Well as some of you may know, I got my Trinity replaced for sticking at the WM splash screen after a few days. This second one - I have had it ONE night - and the same thing has happened with incomplete booting. This time I have been trying all night to flash the phone to an official ROM, but I cannot do it (apparently) because I can't establish a connection via ActiveSync. When I stick the data cable in while in bootloader I see SERIAL replaced by USB and when I try the flash I get a "270" error (cannot connect to phone) and the phone re-boots to the sticking plash screen. What should I do now?
ladies and gentlemen...
we've got a lot of mixed messages in this thread.. please make sure you're posting the right thing. no need to disable USB when manually going in to bootloader to flash (at least in xp).. Also, you can ignore the part of the RUU that says 'do not manually enter bootloader' (you should really read the guide on my site)
foxuniform- can you please give some details..
1) are you running xp or vista
2) have you flashed hard-spl? if so what version?
in the mean time, try a couple of things.. first, flash hard-spl (even if you already have it, but from the sound of it i think you don't have it on your device).. if that works, try to flash an official ROM. Can also try to use splxploit, then flash hard-spl, and then flash official ROM (there's a guide on my site if you're unsure)
please post your results
*edit*
here are the steps for SD card upgrade, but i HIGHLY recommend flashing Hard-spl first..
try to do it from SD card. how?
Extract the .NBH file from your prefered ROM upgrade: In windows use winrar (right click) to extract the contents of the exe file. In Linux / MacOS use cabextract (http://www.cabextract.org.uk/) .
Rename the .NBH file to TRINIMG.nbh and copy it to the root folder of your miniSD card.
With miniSD card inserted on the phone, start the bootloader (hold Power button on right side and Camera button at same time and stick with stylus in RESET on bottom).
You should see the screen pictured on the left, confirm flashing on screen by pressing the power button.
Flashing might hang after some time but this is normal. Just wait. Complete flash takes about 30 minutes, so check your battery or connect to charger before the flashing process starts.
When flashing completes soft-reset your device.
Make sure your SD has FAT32 and has no label. There have been reports that if SD has a label the bootloader can not access the TRINIMG.nbh
racerx_ I have carefully read your response and suggestions, and thanks for your expertise input on the matter. I am fairly new to this stuff so read below carefully as you may find errors in the way I tried to go about doing what I was hoping to accomplish.
First let me answer your questions. I am running Windows XP. The phone is in it's completely natural state in that I have not flashed it in any way. The ROM I was TRYING to flash to the phone while it was not starting properly (this is where I manually entered bootloader) is an official ROM from the HTC website (please note everyone that when I registered my P3600i on the HTC website it came up as the Dopod 810). Anyway, that never worked. ActiveSync never detected the phone (and I guess that's the reason I could not do anything as far as flashing goes). I HARD-RESET my P3600i and it booted normally. I re-installed all the stuff I had on it, from memory card to various .cab files, and the phone is working beautifully thus far. I will report if anything funny happens again.
I have to ask you racerx_, if I CAN flash hard-SPL on the P3600i according to the lovely guide on www.trinityguides.info. I have been of the opinion that things don't work for the P3600i as they did for the P3600, and that has been echoed by many P3600i users on this forum who are ready and waiting to try out some cooked ROMs (myself included).
For the sake of record, my phone is running rom version 3.00.707.17 and radio version 1.46.00.11. I patiently await your response.
woaaahhh..
i didn't notice the 'i' in your previous post... yeah, as far as i know, these ROMs are not flashable on your p3600i.. sorry..
**correct me if i'm wrong somebody**
Yeah I kinda thought that would be your response. By the way - do you think that this phenomenon of sticking at the Windows Mobile splash screen (both the P3600 and P3600i models apparently) has anything to do with something users do with the devices, or you figure it's an inherent software glitch of some sort? I am wondering if I should try a different model or hold on to my P3600i? Hope it's not something that'll happen again - I fly for a living and it's not gonna be good to have the thing screw up on me away from base - I really count on it for everything from casual keeping in touch on Messenger to viewing my work schedule. I love the Trinity though - it's one of my all-time favourite HTC phones.
hmm... i don't think its inherent in the Trinity.. (not a hardware issue.. in my opinion)
its been a while since i followed the posts on it, but always seems to be software related.. sometimes ROM-specific problem. Personally, i've probably flashed as many ROMs as anyone and the only time i ever encountered problems was with the official HTC WM6 ha.. go figure.. I think ppl did find that hard resets before and after flashing are helpful as well..
i love my trinity, and there's not much else on the market to make me want to trade it in (is it just me, or have pda's kind of stopped getting cooler).. i'd stick with it..
Hi to all! I installed a new cooked great rom to my trinity a month ago and it worked fine. it is this rom
[ROM][ITA]WM 6.1 Elegance edition 2.14 (OS 5.2.19213 Build 19213.1.0.0)[ONLINE]
today I got a strange error and the phone was stuck. I unplugged the battery and when I started again it was stuck on the calibration screen. if I tap on the screen nothing happens but the backlight turns on if it was off so it still catches the taps. I connected the phone via usb to delete from the autostart menu the link to the configuration screen (welcome.exe) but the phone is not deteced by activesync so no way to browse folders on my device or use a program like SOTI to control the ppc. I want to bring it back to life as I know that my files hasn't been deleted. in fact if I press the right soft button I get a menu of a program I put in the ppc and it's not included in the elegance rom so I'm sure my files and my configuration and everything are still there.
if i get a phone call the phone rings (with the default ringtone anyway, but the name of the caller is displayed correctly, that's why I'm sure my device still has all my contacts and more)
what could I do?
is there a way to edit files from bootloader? does mtty work for this? (I have no idea how to use mtty so I might be wrong) could I make a full dump, edit the startup folder and reflash the phone with all my data?
I tried to use mortscript witht the autorun feature to read a part of the register regarding the welcome file and deleting it's link in the startup folder but the sd card driver is not loaded I think as the files are not launched, while in another phone the same script works fine.
thanks in advance to all who will have time and will to help me
pcwizzul
as far as i know (not that much), reading files from bootloader is pretty impossible.
You can always just reflash. If the touchscreen problem persists, it's possible that the problem is hardware related.
Your computer should detect your device when in bootloader, and failing that, you should be able to SD flash (assuming you're HardSPL'd or equivalent, thats just what we have in the herald forum)
Thanks for your help
I'm quite sure the hardware is fine as all my problems started after a crash of the OS.
Anyone has an idea to get access to my ppc?

if the sdcarddriver is not loaded then the following will not work but give it a try anyways. make a text file "whatever.txt" no quotes then rename it to "welcome.not" no quotes then put it in the root of your storage card and it should skip the whole startup process. that is if it loads the sd card driver or you might want to think about flashing another rom
I already tried the "welcome.not" trick but got no results. I'm afraid that the sd card driver is not loaded then.
Thanks for the hint irus anyway!
Really there's no way to read files from bootloader or something similar?
not that i know of
but the fact that your issue was noticed during a rom flash
dont mean it's not hardware related
much like a heart attack which happens during a thunderstorm
dont need be related to the thunderstorm
Wait! The error never happened during a flash. I never said it. I had that rom on my trinity since a month and it worked like a charm. Then suddenly I got an error and the phone was stuck.
I have understood what you mean but at least I hope it's not a hardware failure!
Hello everyone, it's me again...
Please read this first, as it is the reason why I started MTTY. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10487426#post10487426
I used this guide to MTTY http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540290
I did exactly as described in the guide, exept for the "Remove Watermark" thing, as it is for windows x65 and x84. I have a 32 bit system.
I used the Energy.DIAMOND.28244.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Dec.21.7z ROM
I used the "flash from internal storage" method. Again, I did exactly as the guide described. I did change the ROM name to what is described in the guide, and when i did that, my pc warned me if i changed that which was after the .xxx , the program couldnt work properly anymore. I continued anyway because I was pretty sure it would work. I changed the name to DIAMIMG.nbh
Maybe that's what's wrong?
I used the MTTY program, and selected USB.
I typed: set 14 0
I typed: task 29
In the guide, only one file failed to be erased. I had four un-erased blocks.
I typed: task 8
I immediatley disconnected my device and held vol down and back for over 2 minutes. The startup screen came, which displayed TouchDiamond as normal, but this screen stays there forever, no matter what I do.
The only thing I can do is enter bootloader. Then, when i hook my device up to my computer, "serial" changes to "usb". When i check control panel--> device manager, I can see my device is hooked up. When i disconnect, it isn't there anymore. That means my pc still recognizes my htc.
Is there any way to fix this? Was it a wrong ROM version? Was it a Wrong HardSPL version? Please help me.
I've made a backup before I even started with the Hard SPL, but i'm not sure if thats the ROM, or the settings and some files on my internal storage. It's about 30-60 MB.
Please help me.
Also, I have downloaded the original rom from htc, but i'm not sure how to flash this, as activesync doesn't recognize my HTC device.
Again, please help me. There has to be a way.
Thanks in advance
connect ur diamond to pc and flash from PC
btw u can still get ur original rom from htc netherland site....use ur serial number in ur device
I downloaded the rom from the htc site. i just flashed it and it works.
Now how to flash the energy rom? im still not sure which method to use, because it's now working like the htc one. it's a .z7 file. The htc rom was just double clicking and following the instructions. It may sound stupid, but i dont want it to happen again
Happy it's working again tho.
glad ur device is working again. and dont worry if it happens again. becoz you can bring it back with htc rom always.
if i may suggest, how about you try a non-energy rom jus to kick in the confidence in you.
try another custom rom....then you can be sure if its really ur device or the energy rom file that is corrupt.
some users hav had issues with their energy rom files downladed being corrupt

Hi there...
File with z7, it's compressed file. You need to extract it first to a new folder. Then you can try to flash again.
Hello again.
I did notice when i first downloaded the energy rom that it was a 7z file. But when i tried to unzip it, there was no such option in the drop down menu. This is my mums pc, so I think it's not installed on this pc.
I'll try to unzip it today after school.
If it doesn't work then, I'll try to flash a few other roms, just to be sure.
I'll keep you updated. Thanks for the fast replies tho^^
It's working! I just used 7Zip and ran the RUU included with the ROM. Ill try several as maxsence 2.5 is a bit sluggish, ive tried two, but the 23699 build doesn't have cookie 2.0
Really happy and thanks for the replies, guys(or gals)
see...i told you so...this is called the "CROSS CHECKING"....
now do you (or everyone else) believe me when i say there are some energy rom files that are corrupt or refuse to flash to diamond.
no, it was not corrupt, I was just so stupid not to unzip it first, that's all.
There may be some files that are corrupt, but i haven't witnessed one.
Now i know how to, i'm one die-hard flashin' mother******
TY^^
