Hi all,
I was trying to upgrade my Qtek9000 with an official ROM Updater, but my device went immediately into the Serial bootloader mode and I've not been able to do nothing to run out from this mode...
I've tryied the solutions suggested in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=290234 without any luck...
The problem is that neither Mtty nor the UNI_exitbootloader tool are able to connect to USB.
I'm using no usb hub, I'm running on a Dell Precision M90 notebook, I've disabled USB connection in Activesync (4.2.0) and also tryied with a pc without activesync installed.
Any idea?
Thanks
Paolo
Are you on XP or Vista, and what version of AS/WMDC do you have?
Hi,
I'm running Xp, ActveSync is 4.2.0, don't know what WMDC is sorry, can you please explain?
Don't worry about WMDC - it's only relevant if you have Vista.
Are you using the proper cable that came with the Universal? Some cables don't have all the pins wired. That (or a broken USB port) would explain why your Universal isn't going to USB mode when you plug in the USB cable. Have you looked carefully to see if it changes from saying "Serial" to "USB" at the top of the Bootloader screen when you plug in the cable?
If it does change to "USB", I would try upgrading to ActiveSync 4.5 - go to http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
Make sure you disable USB Connnections in the Connection settings before plugging in your Universal. Then try flashing the CE ROM again.
Good luck
BTW did you try doing a hard reset to get out of bootloader (both soft keys and then the reset button, then select 0).
Good advice, especially with upgrading to AS 4.5, it's a full release now on Microsoft Update site, and I have a feeling the WM6 ROMs may require it... Good luck with it, keep us posted.
Ok, thanks all!
This morning I connected the PDA to my office's PC with it's original cable and it instantly switched to USB mode...
So, I launched the upgrade and it's now in progress... let's hope!!!
It might really be a cable problem, yesterday night I tried with 2 different PC and a not original cable (I think it's my camera one...)
Thanks a lot, by now... I'll let you know own this story will end...
Ok, new ROM is up and running!
Thanks all!
Bye
Paolo
Good stuff.
i tried to do a beasty wm6 rom update, everything went well, and at the end of the procedure, it ask me to "press 0 to restaure factory setting" for rebooting, i press 0 and then....nothing. Impossible to start the htc, i can only access bootloader mode, but ain't no more recognize by the pc, i tried to plug it to AC power as i thought of a battery prob, and still nothing, no start, and no led telling me that it's recharging...
i ve done some search on the forum, but can't see something similar to this.
anyhelp welcome
regards
Hi,
did you try to downgrade it to WM5? I also had problems with WM6 and after a downgrade to WM5 it worked again.
Cheers
Michael
sorry wrong thread.
well now when i connect it to my pc it says unknown device, so i dunno how to reflash to wm5
im on vista 64, and when i try to install the 64 driver it gave me on error about a corrupted driver...
Hi
I have the same problem,cannot recognize the usb port.
Anyone has an idea??
try changing your cable and if possible try using a xp machine. i have heard of people having problems when flashing with vista (i did it and no problems)
If after you change the cable, and use a differente computer the universal when you put it in bootloader mode and the word SERIAL does not change to USB i would say its pretty much bricked but if you only flashed your device i would say it is still possible to bring it back from death.
try changing your cable (specially if its the one you usually use) im almost sure thats your problem.
also make sure you dont have the sd card or the sim in it that seems to help too.
best regards and best of luck

Thats your problem! Vista is very shaky at best with flashing via USB on HTC devices.
Reflash to WM5 using the SDCard method.

this worked for me
follow the directions on this thread it worked for me http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723
After realizing my vc was causing my phone to crash iwth my kitchen
i've done a few more rom upgrades... however this time..
I get a 'device not recognized error" any time i plug it into a pc..
no activesync and no bootloader will be recognized when trying to
upgrade the rom so i can get usb back.
So I think i'm going ot try to find an activesync cab...
and then if that doesn't work, flash with via sd card.
Hmm maybe my usb port is bad.. that would suck.?
found the info here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365030
i think i have a bad B pin in my usb port. probably from using too many different mini usb cables.. including questionable and
broken ones.

Thank you rajivshahi for your answer and attention.
I had try all the methods that I find in hole of internet!!
also I tried your suggstted method. I was connect my phone with ans without SIM and memory to each USB port of my (and another) PCs, I changed my USB cable for several times, I also tried Uni_bootloader program and MTTY but they didn't work (because there is no USB connetion with my UNI and my PC)
I just keep crying!!!!!!
Have you tested doing Doc format?
Hope it helps,
If the device is not recognised by PC at the same time as Serial not changing to USB, I would think your USB port is no longer attached as it should and can cause the problem you described. From time to time USB port might still feel and look secure on mainboard, it will even charge the device, however, when it comes to AS and USB connection to PC, it will not connect properly.
That, or your PC USB or motherboard are malfunctioning. Try other USB devices in the same ports.
My PC's USB ports are work properly because as you told enigma1nz, I had test them with another devices
For the DOC format method: there is no USB port for connecting with MTTY!
Soooooo amazing!
(thanks for all your answers)
So, it means there is no way for me
hey,
have you disabled (unckeck) USB connection for ActiveSync/WMDC at PC?
do it now or USB port will not be available for mtty.
also please make sure that you installed XP sync driver under vista incase you're trying from vista.
follow the same -
1. unckeck USB connection for as/wmdc at pc
2. reset the device by pressing reset button
3. set bl mode (if not there already)
4. connect usb cable
5. start mtty ...
Hi Tomal, first I have to say: Thank you for your amazing roms. they are so fast, nice and stable. I'm one of the biiiig fan of your roms.
seconed: yes I was disabled the USB connection and also kill ir from task manager. but my Uni is still deeaaaaaaad
somehow I have a feeling that something is wrong with the usb port in device. may be connection is broken or something...
Hi everyone,
finally I had to send my Universal to doctor! , he says that I can load your device from SD card, and boot up it, (flashing card)
!!
I was wondered! what is flashing card! (load from SD card without any PC!)
Do any one have some information about this method!!!!

Yep, it does look like your device's USB being a culprit.

I'm going to buy HTC Advantage X7510, but there is one question:
Can I upgrade its WM 6.1 to 6.5 ?
I hard-SPLled my device and unpreded ROM Miri v3.0 on it. After the upgrade the device could not connect to my PC via ActiveSync or Mobile Center.
I tried with several PCs, laptops and many cables.
It should be 'soft'ware, since the problem started after ROM upgrade.
So, I figured it was because of the ROM, so downgraded to official 6.1 ROM, but connecting is still not possible. The official ROM included bootloader, radio and OS, btw.
Now I am stuck with a device that cannot connect to any PC! I always get a message of an unknown device that connects, later on followed by a message of an unknown USB device.
And yes, tried to remove the speed-up of ActiveSync. Also tried as USB storage, but I get the unknown USB device all the time...
Please help, I don't know what to try now!
Try a different USB cable. Might be a good idea to buy a brand new one. They tend to go corrupt easily.

Have you tried using a differant usb port? I had to do that with a miri rom on my "old" Blackstone. I did have trouble with miri roms doing that on my Touch HD,for some strange reason.
You could also go to the threads in that forum and read what people have done to remedy that problem on the HD, as it should also work on our Tilt 2.
Later..............

try rebooting your pc, also try a different usb port on your comptuer and then try another usb cable. i have read somewere that some computers do not put out enough voltage on the usb ports, so this said, after you try the previous suggestions grab your cable and try another computer, after you install activesynce of course .
Thanks for thinking with me!
I tried several PCs, so, yes, different USB ports.
Also tried several cables that proved to be ok with other devices, including one ExtUSB cable.
Of cause resetted PCs before connecting and first installing ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Center (depending on OS: WinXP or Vista)
When connecting to USB connections that worked before now sometimes the Touch tells me there is insufficient power... That's strange too! It would mean the device needs more than 500mA in some cases (because it's the only device connection to the USB) - but this is on more USB ports of different computers!
So I tried everything qua hardware... Don't know what to do now.

Have you considered -- or tried -- flashing to a different ROM via the sd-card method? The method where you put the RHODIMG.nbh file in the root of your sd card (by removing card and using a card reader attached to PC), then put the TP2 in bootloader and it flashes the new ROM from the sd card...something like that?
I probably didn't describe this quite right -- I haven't done it myself -- but lots of people prefer this rom-flashing method. Find/check-out the procedure elsewhere on this forum.
If it works then maybe you'd get away from the problem-rom...if the rom is really the problem.
