Cannot flash radio

Hi,
I'm on radio 1.14 T-Mobile MDA Pro.
I've flashed my radio from 1.10 to 1.13 then 1.14 over the last 6 months without any problems. 1.14 is not the best radio I've ever used and seems to be pretty poor with WM6. I'm trying to reflash with 1.13 but it's not having it. I've tried directly from the bootloader (1.01) screen but it still won't have it.
Could anyone help?
Thanks

what kind of error message appears in ma_noupgrade when u try to flash radio in bootloader mode?

Error message
Wow that was quick!
Thanks,
It's 114 Radio Rom Update Error (i've attached a screen grab). I'm using parallels to do the flashing - works on a rom as long as there is no radio.nbf to be flashed.
Thanks

sometimes it could happen. but you should be able to continue.
retry again two or more times.
if it stuck during flashing, retry again.
if it didn't work, try to uninstall activesync 4.5 and temporarily try to flash radio with 4.2 version.

activesync 4.5 in only necessary for WM6 synchronization.
you can use 4.2 while u are in bootloader mode, and try to flash radio.

Still no luck
I've tried everything without it working. Think it might be due to Parallels. I've reflashed the rom to 2.02.00 and it seems to have stopped the problems with the radio dropping out anyway.
Thanks for your help

Remove Dopod WM6 ROM with a different

Hi
My device is running Dopod WM6 (EASY_INSTALL_new_HK_WWE_wm6_Chun..exe)
OS 5.2.1437 Build 17944.0.3.1
ROM 3.54.707.3
Radio 1.47.00.10
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
but it don’t allow me to install any ROMs like Schap's 3.57a or someone else.
I do this from a XP pc with ActiveSync 4.5 and the ROM upgrade wizard cannot auto detect then tell to use SSPL.
But nothing happened except the upgrade get ERROR [260]
Did try to select SPL-1.11 or SPL-2.02 and if I do that it start upgrade to 1% then device reboot by itself.
Has also try with Hard-SPL-V7 but it refused to do something with that!

I have tried everything now but best I can get is 1% starts to download, and then the phone restarts by it self

is your phone superCID? thats probably the issue even though it shouldnt be if you have Splv7 on your phone which you do right? If not thats the first thing you need to do before you brick your phone!

I did install many different ROM before the last how works good
Dopod WM6 (EASY_INSTALL_new_HK_WWE_wm6_Chun..exe)
But what happen with phone with Dopod ROM has they build in some security ???

how can i step back to another ROM

Help with upgrading plz

Ok I have trouble with every rom I have found...
Orbit O2 running the latest WM5.
I start the rom upgrade for B&B and as it starts to get into the strange splash screen (I assume its a bootloader type thing, multicloured), it disconnects from my pc (running vista and the new mobile device centre 6) of course, then reconnects (i hear the tone anyway) but then the rom upgrade program tells me that it cant connect.
Thus my device is stuck on the loading page.
Another attempt to use the UG program brings me further: to the loading % screen. it gets to 3% and then the device resets and loads fully.
This is where it ends. another attempt brings me back full circle...
I had a similar problem with the official o2 rom, but the second attempt didnt stop at 3% so it went all the way.
after upgrading, I cant progress from the above any better.
I want the B&B for its interface, 3d cube and touchflo. Is there a way to add these onto my existing rom?
Thanks guys.

Have you got another pc or laptop you can try this from?
If not try disabling all your firewall and anti virus whilst upgrading.

the real issue i think isthe sync disconnecting while transferring data.
either that or my phone doesnt like anything over the 3% mark on these rom builds.
no firewall, no antivirus.

i had the same problem. this is what i did.
i installed the original wm6 of htc and from there installed bb 4

thanks ill try that.
ive so far installed the o2 orbit rom and then tried the bb4 same problems.
but ill try the htc version now.

You MUST flash the USPL upgrade first. After this you can then flash to B&Bv4.
By the way. If you can get access to a Windows XP computer, use this to flash. Windows Vista as VERY picky when upgrading.

There is a problem with upgrading you're rom in combo with windows vista. I assume upgrading is only possible with active sync 4.5(XP).
USPL and vista give's a lot of problem's like the one you discribe. Try upgrading your rom from a PC with XP.
I had the same problem. I Could'nt upgrade my rom from a PC with VISTA. Xp was the sollution for me.

thanks guys.
im gonna look into upgrading the uspl, but i dont have an xp machine. only vistas and a mac

just tried the uspl....
dos counted up 0...10....20 etc up to 70, then skipped to 100 and the rom update program launched. it went into the multicoloured splash loader then stopped.
im gonna try on xp later if i can...

ok for anyone who has similar issues to me...
I just got a Hermes today (£60, tmob) and same upgrade problems.
XP machine isnt an option for me...
BUT i found this http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=27 for anyone who needs advice on vista. its very simple and works a treat.
thanks

my experiences
I couldn't flash USPL on my IBM T40p(Win XP SP2). I use other PC with clean instalation of W2K(SP4) and AS4.5(nothing else instaled) and it work fine(flash USPL then B&B 3.7-to test it then B&B 4.0). I realize I'm using Kerio Firewall on my laptop, AS 4.5 don't connect to Artemis with Kerio Firewall instaled!
Advice for all:
1) try again to flash USPL
2) TRY AGAIN!!!
3) try other pc
4) try again
.....
5) once flashed UPSL(your SPL should be 1.11.0000) flash the B&B Rom(or any other you want) - do it on same pc which you use for succesfull flashing of USPL

"Communication error" when flashing Schap's ROM

I'm dying to try the Schap's 4.01 ROM on my Vario II, but each time I go to flash it, I get a communication error, right when it starts to transfer data. I've gone through the recovery steps, made sure it's synched with Activesync, etc. and let the software detect the bootloader (1.09, I think) but still can't get past the setup.
Is there some trick to this that I don't know about or another software program that works better?
Thanks

Either use SSPL (not autodetect) or better yet, get HardSPL isntalled on it and then do it from the SDCard. Quicker and more reliable

Wireless Data not working. :/

Previously I had no sound working and it was the radio. (Had original stock radio/rom) I upgraded to official AT&T 6.1 rom with whatever radio it came with (Can't recall which) and now data won't work. This is all with Android only, works fine with windows mobile. I want to get the latest radio BUT everytime I flash HardSPL it crashes before it starts. >:-(

So you're unable to flash the latest 1.71.X radio? I found that everything worked fine with that one. What version of Android are you using?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you can't even flash HardSPL, you're doing something wrong.
