I've sat here all day; I've read all the tips, suggestions, etc. I don't know what else to do. I too am stuck at the "blue splash screen" that everyone else is stuck at. It won't boot from there. I've even tried to reflash with the old ROM and it did not boot either. I entered the KITL settings that I've found here and it went to a white screen and I had to reboot since that just hung as well. I've tried MTTY, but I do not see an option for USB, I see an option for Com 1, Com 2 and Com 3. I've tried every USB port I have on my rig. I'm over it. I loved my device until I tried to upgrade it; I don't think I should have done that and my wife is going to be infuriated with me over this. If someone, anyone can help without the ever so constant "You should have used the 'SEARCH' option" I would sincerely appreciate it.
Thank you,

Can you enter bootloader?
I got stuck a the splash screen before. What I did was upgrade just the radio by deleting all .nbf files in the upgrade pack and running MAUpgradeUt_NOID.exe.
After success, I hard reseted (___+___+Reset hole)
then it went through so i flashed again from the start. I heard it might help that the SD card isn't in.
I tried flashing both ways (W & W/O SD Card) didn't make a difference to me.
Hope i can help once i get a better status of what really happened

Yes, I can enter bootloader. My SD card and SIM card are both removed. I will try what you suggest and post my findings.

No, the radio only upgrade still leaves me stuck at the blue splash screen. Any other suggestions?

Is it possible that the ROM you are trying to install is corrupt?
Have you tried installing another type of ROM? O2, Orange, Qtek?

I've downloaded the Qtek ROM from here, on this FTP server. I have not tried another ROM. I will try; however, and see if it will work.

I've flashed my Qtek with the latest JasJar ROM and it is still stuck at the splash screen. Any other suggestions from anyone?
Thank you,
Monty Gibson
Ok so tell me what you are doing, go through the steps you are doing one by one. Perhaps I will spot something, perhaps not.
It sounds as if you have a rom loaded that does not match the device.

I've downloaded the Qtek ROM for my Qtek 9000 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=46660
Once downloaded I do the following:
- Ensure that ActiveSync is not running (not that it would sync anyway since my device is a brick), but I make sure that it is not taking up the USB Connection.
- I set the device in boot loader mode (as suggested here), plug in my device which goes from Serial to USB and I bring up the MTTY utility, select USB from the left hand side of COM ports and run the "Set 14 0" command.
- I then run the upgrade that I've downloaded from here.
- Once it's finished I then do what the screen tells me to. I disconnect the device, I press both (-) buttons and insert my stylus into the reset button and the 0/X screen appears and hit 0.
-It says that it's "clearing" and the Qtek screen appears with the new versions and just hangs.
That's what I have been doing. If you see something wrong, please tell me. I've even flashed the I-Mate JasJar ROM over night (went to bed as it was flashing and woke up and I saw the I-Mate flash screen, and it is still stuck at the I-Mate splash screen too).
Thank you for your assistance,
Monty Gibson
OK the first thing that comes to mind is you say you have a Qtek 9000 why are you not getting the Qtek ROM from Qtek?
Is it possible to get the official ROM for your device from whoever you bought it from?
Are you perhaps trying to change the language as well as the ROM?
What USB cable are you using, the one that came with your device? My experience is all USB cables are NOT the same. My JasJar has a black arrow on the top side that plugs into the JasJar. Check the power adapter that plugs into your Qtek for any markings on it that are special and see if you can find a USB cable with the same markings. And I believe that it is not that ofter cables are defective, but rather that the Universal Cable is special, and has a connection that the normal USB cable does not have.

Qtek does not supply ROM's to those who did not purchase from Brightpoint. If you try to log onto their website and register, you're asked for the IMEI number on the back of the device. If you try and do this it is stated that they will not support the device that we have to contact our local dealer from whom we purchased it from.
I purchased my Qtek 9000 from www.qtekphonestore.com. I've already emailed them and stated my claim. It's the holiday weekend here and I won't hear back from them until Monday.
The ROM's that are here; on this site, are "supposed" to be from Qtek themselves. I have to believe that they are, I have nothing else telling me otherwise. I believe them to be the correct code for my device and I'm not trying to change the language. I downloaded the version for WWE which was previously installed and shipped.
I also have tried to reflash with the old ROM and it will not accept it.
My USB cable is the one I have that came with the device, it seems to work and I don't have another one available. Any other suggestions?
Thank you for your comments,
Monty Gibson
Try this
Here is a method that worked for me
First lets be sure of the ROM you are messing with. What I downloaded from XDA is UNI_QTEK_13077_176_10900_WWE_Ship.exe
If you are at the (Serial/USB V1.00) Boot Screen try to update the firmeware using the method described in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45874&highlight=boot+screen
If the ROM is successful (goes through the entire process without error...UNTIL you cold-reset where you STILL end up at Boot Screen)
then do this
Attempt to upgrade the ROM using the Qtek ROM above (double-click the file do not use the extracted files). For some reason the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe while it did not upgrade ROM it did "fix" the problem which did not allow the regular QTek ROM to work.

Question: How to flash ROM without ActiveSync?
How to recovery my Artemis?
Welcome any advice,
Thanks in advance.
Yea me to, mine is now a brick after that upgrade? No active sync connection possible and all I get now is the blue O2 start screen after the hard reset with the red writing and numbers in the top left hand corner..
Phone is an UK XDA Orbit
IPL 1.25.0001
SPL 1.11.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 3.4.0.0
HELP!!!!!!!
yeah, I had the same problem and have created a thread for it already. unfortunately I got no useful replies, and it seems that I am stuck waiting for an official o2 ROM so that I can recover my Orbit.
It seems there is a way to un brick our phones I just need to get my phone bootted into bootlader mode which no one seems to say how to do??
Can anyone help how I can boot my Orbit , like what combo of keys I need to press to boot it into bootloader mode then XP will see it at a driver level apparently Active Sync still won;t but I will be able to run some German ROM update with the ROM file replaced with the other ones and it may come back to life..

Correct and use mtty
Already see in the forum ....
Thanks guys and apologies for the spelling..I ran the Artemis_USPL before I tried upgrading to WM6 and again have been able to run it after with my new brick now with the phone in bootloader mode but still when I try and run the german ROM update a) it will only work with the german file which freezes @ 3%? This seems to be a known problem reading around and b )when I replace it with the smaller ROM file, 54MB the german one is 66MB, I originally tried to use it doesn't read the ROM file or the update utility doesn't want to read it. I reckon I might be able to get it back if I can get one of the ROM update utilities to read a good ROm file and send it to the phone.
I can;t find this MTTY program to sniff the USB port and return the code of if the USPL util wokred as I think that could be key to all of this.
Can anyone post a quick how to here for
1) install MTTY from somewhere
2) what command to run agaist the phoen to see if the USPL util worked and what values I should be looking for
3) another WM6 ROM version (that the update utils can read) download location I can download from to try and send to the phone using the German update util
Not asking for much am I but I desperately need my phone back WM5 or 6 in the next day or so so really can't send it off.
Thanks
Error message I recive at the 3% stage when using the German ROM and english update util.
use the file attach and read that :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285112
Thanks but I'm not that cleud up on what commands I'm meant to be sending. It works in Bootloader mode I ge a response from the phone by send it a command. But even if I get a response telling me what the CID status is its not much help as I think ti shoudl have tekane BEBEs ROM by now as I've got the german ROMUpdateUtility sending that 54,272KB file to the phone but it stops after 3%. What are my options?

Click to expand...

That's right. On older models MTTY was quite useful, but not on the Artemis. You cannot use it to read the CID status anyway. If you are not sure about the status, run the USPL tool, just to make sure.
I've already re run the USPL ROMUpdateUtility and it completes 100% okay in bootloader mode. But after I hard reset and then try and flash the WM6 BEBE ROM or any ROM German etc back onto it it either fails with the error code I posted up earlier or gets to 3% and fails.
What are my options at this stage? Does anyone have a link to another ROM I can try like the original WM5 O2 ROM or any other WM6 ROm that might work. I'm willing to give them all a try as it's just a useless phone right now and I haven;t sent it off as 1) I need it before the weekend and 2) As I can flash some ROMs with the USPL and others have done this no problem I really feel there must be a solution as I can still falsh the phone.
What can I say RTFM... I did it all right and I didn't have a brick, I missed out one small detail... loading on the ROM with the extended ROM. All now running and it does seem a little faster than WM5.
Thank you to all those that tried to help out. To the others that are still having probs.. Don't try and run the update in the middle of a busy day in the office whilst trying to manage 100 other things meaning you are probably missing out a line like me...
One question though how do I get back my O2 power and storage meters on the today screen back as I liked them and the WiFi seems to have a bug where when it is enabled and you click on the WiFi symbol up the top it only allows you to switch it on, when it is already on.. so you have to open up the COMM manager to switch it off.
So how did you fix it exactly? I have read this thread thoroughly and can't find out what you did!
ERROR[206] occurs while trying to update ROM to WM6
While tring to update ROM to WM6 on O2 XDA Orbit i encounter ERROR[206].
I wanted to attach the screen shot but dont know how to do that, but anyway what i am doing is i attached my pda to my pc via activesync using supplied usb cord. Everything goes well till i reach a screen where it says "You are now ready to update your ROM image...." and once i click next a progress bar apperas and my pda shuts and activesync exit's automatically and my pda tries to restart with RBG band and some text:RUU, IPL 1.25.0001, SPL 1.25.0000 and USB. And thats it after few seconds or a min i get the ERROR[206] and my pda hangs.
I dont know why Activesysn shutsdown ???
Just an additional in i want to tell that without installing activesync i am not able to connect/pair my pda with my pc. So do i need to install the drivers and then try or it doen't matter cause once i install Active sync i can connect the device.
Please help me with this....
Thanks

I had a problem with my phone loaded touch flow 4 and cid unlocking, everything was fine then after a while it froze at boot up.
I look put the battery and did a hard reset, put it into bootloadeder mode, reflashed with a t-mobile rom does not need to be cid unlocked to do that.
Once origonal rom was working, cid unlock again, flashed back to touchflow 4.0 - sorted
Where did you got an tmobile rom from can you tell me. Mine is also freezing on booting almost once every day or so after I've upgraded to 4.0

In bootloader mode AS will not recognized the PDA. As I see there is DES crash proof hard-spl on your PDA. Stay in bootloader mode, and try to flash an other rom, or the original offical rom. If does not work here is a useful link:

thanks for your quick reply!
how can i flash without the active sync is connected?
i have tried but the rom update utility says it cant find device and exits
or can it be done withot connection, if so how?
thanks for all input, as i said im not an experienced "flasher".
I don't know why, but after successfull cooked rom update (Schap, Faman, etc..) the last one didn't work and stick to 3-color (I'm under olipro 1.3)
I just made a spl update without any pb (take a look if on your pda screen it shows USB instead of serial) don't care about activsync
Then a radio update (1.40 instead of 1.50).
Shap rom update didn't work anymore (cache issue), so I'd just copied RUU_signed.nbh from SChaps replacing the one into Fman folder, and just working fine...
If it can help you.
Had this kind of problem
Simplest thing is to load rom from SD card (do search on this).
In short get the ROM you want - ROM***.nb file and rename it as TRINIMG.NB put it on the SD card. Launch bootloader and follow instructions. Otherwise check thread VISTA FLASH DISASTER...
Good luck,
Solved!
I reconnected the phone ( it sad USB in the bootloader btw)
Downloaded schaps wm6pro and unzipped, enterd the ruu and flashed, even thoug active sync was inactive.
I didnt have to go any further than this.
Many thanks, now i might dare to try som more roms, done ax3ls and karmba's so far looking forward to test schaps now.
Look in the Trinity Wiki. It describe how to flash from the SD card. this will fix you up.
Hi all,
I have a huge problem and I hope you guys can help me. I tried to flash the orbit (german) artemis of my brother. First flashed the uspl and everything worked fine. At the end there came this penguin picture and the screen stayed black/blue. Then I flashed the rom (MossisROMV3.0GER Windows Mobile 6.5).
HOWEVER: Right then the battery of the laptop went down and the pc switched off. Unfortunately we couldnt plug it in, since we didnt have the cable with us. Now after pluging in the pc there were some connection error notices. Since I didnt know how to proceed I removed the battery of the artemis. I thought I should repeat everything from the beginning on. However the phone always got stuck at the blue o2 screen showing the data:
IPL 3.04.0001
SPL 3.04.0000
GSM 02.88.90
OS 3.13.0.0
Softreset and harrest doesnt make any difference. The phone always gets stuck here.
Is the phone bricked?? Why then does it start? Please help me out asap, since the phone is needed. What can I do?
Thanks in advance
brm
first you are NOT CID unlocked (SPL 3.04.0000)
so you can only flash german orbit ROM on the phone to revive it
1. get to bootloader (press and hold the record button and reset the phone using stylus)
you will get the tri colour screen
2. connect the phone via USB to PC (no need to look for activesync/WMDC connection in this case)
3. and run the RUU (official O2 german ROM for O2 Xda Orbit)
BTW i have official o2 UK ROM in my 4shared account
look for the link in my signature
you may try your luck on that
Hi,
thanks for the fast respond. I read the just before some where else and right now I am searching for the original german rom. However cant find it anywere.
Do you think the english one will work too?

Hi I have and IMATE PDA2k EVDO and I tried a d-two rom and I now have the device sitting on the 4 color screen every time I reset it. Any idea how I reset it back to defaults so I can load another image onto it, I have the original image. any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Actually I just fixed it.
Anyone know of any WM5,6 or 6.5 roms that work on this phone. The EVDO network is dead here in Australia so I just want to convert it into a PDA.
For the love of God... if you are going to make a thread saying "Hey guys, I broke this, how do I fix it?" Do not EVER update with "I fixed it!" without telling us HOW you fixed it.
I thought it was such simple fix it did not requiere explaination. To enter the bootloader you do the following
Press Power + record (above the volume slider) + softreset at the same time.
This puts it into the load mode so you can reflash.

You sir are an idiot.
A Blue Angel rom will not work for a Harrier.
So delete your comment because some other idiot will follow your bad instructions then **** up their phone and make another idiotic post.
Yea so did anyone figure out this whole problem with the white boot loader screen? I'm no where near a programmer or anything but I think my boot loader version is out dated. My HARRIER, not blue angel, is stuck at a white screen that reads Serial(USB when connected to usb of course) and v1.02. I've had a Harrier before this and it had the four color screen for boot loader. Am I on to something here?
Oh btw I already tried to reflash the rom over and over but updater keeps saying it can't connect.
