FIXED! well not the phone but i managed to get 1.11.000 on my other phone...shame about the other xda orbit though lol
you didn't need to throw the pda into the wall... i would have gladly help you get rid of it....
did you take out your mem card? if you didn't, it would give the Error[260] msg....
i know it's not really funny, but still i had to laugh about this one. =)

Hi All,
Hope you can help. Have played with multitued of roms, crossbow and aku3.x.. changed radios alot. Now I can't seem to change the rom anymore, using official files or maupgradeut tool. Get error 114. It says about to update.. the progress bar never moves and after half minute will time out with the error. Changing CE and ExtRom is fine.
Any ideas?
did you connect your device trough a usb hub or somekind maybe?
I had that problem.
try this:
- Put the device in BL
- start your AC on your pc and disable all connection options
- connect the device on a free usb port, directly on the pc
this should work
Also please use the original cable. This is particularly important for Radio upgrade. If all else please try upgrading from a different PC.
cheers for tips. I will try these.. I think I've poached a cable from a pc peripheral as I'm at work :-D

i'm having the same problem and sadly i want to aware you .... there is no solution for this till now! i have spent a lot of time by now and my universal is still a brick.... just like somebody said... a 1000$ paper weight
tell me if you get through of this.... i know the solution is to get the mother board changed.......

Did your IMEI get changed already once? (motherboard)
My Uni died on me after flashing I think it was a Imate rom and it went back for repairs, they changed the board (therefore the Imei).
Since then no problems anymore.
Could be that your device is still original, I think the early devices atleast had problems with a corrupt eeprom or something which could lockup after flashing.
After many flashings of roms, I finally flashed back to the official AT&T WM6 rom located at the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334771
My phone, even with my new sim card doesn't pick up any reception at all. All I get is the two arrows with the "x" and that other weird symbol with the exclamation point next to it.
I have a tilt and when I pop my sim inside, it works perfectly, no hiccups what so ever.
I live here in Hawaii and we just recently turned on the 3G network and I'm not sure if it affects my 8525.
Any ideas on what may be wrong? I had used Black Majiks WM6 on my 8525 previously but this past Monday I had issues with it so I tried flashing a bunch of times and still no fix.
I've searched through the threads for the last 2 days and everything I've tried so far hasn't work and I'm really desperate and need input from more professional users. PLEASE!!!
More information regarding phone problem.
When I try hit the green phone button, it doesn't do anything. Also going to phone settings under the settings menu, and it doesn't go there! Don't know why, I try to click it and nothing. Other icons work, not that one though.
This is getting ever more frustrating and I'm still searching through the thread for possible solutions, but nothing. Someone out there has to have some clue as to what may be wrong!
Found out another thing that might be of importance.
When I reset my device, soft or just turning it off and on, I get a "No GSM" on the AT&T screen.
Man, I've even gone as far as visiting Mr. Vanx's site to downgrade everything back to WM5. I still get the "No GSM" on my startup screen and no connection!
WTF?????????????
Well if you can get to the boot loader try flashing the official rom from HTC's Site for your phone. I'm not saying the one you DLe'd from here was bad but maybe it's just not the right one for your phone for some reason.
http://www.america.htc.com/
Well not to say the ROM you DL'ed from here was bad or anything but if you can get to the bootloader flash the officially released ROM from http://www.america.htc.com/ for your phone and see if that fixes your problem. Maybe the ROM you got from here is just not the right one for your phone or something. Worh a try anyway as you can't really use it as is.

You know, the weird thing is that I tried to download stuff from the American HTC site, and I can only max out at 10.0kbps and I can NEVER get the whole file, only 15% maybe.
Talk about running into one problem after the other.
Is there a mirror out there somewhere?

Ok thanks for the uploads. Got the file. I just want to make sure if I should upgrade to Hard-SPL V7 before I use the update the rom?
I went all the way back to Herm SPL 1.06 and Cingular WM5. Don't want to brick the phone so wanted confirmation before I do anything else. Can't afford for things to get more messed up.

Well I like using Hard-SPL V7 especially for the cooked roms as it gives you a bit of safety, but the rom I uploaded here is the Official HTC America / ATT Rom so you can follow their flash instructions for it. I even successfully flashed this ROM from VISTA 64 bit with no problem to my Herm 100.
As with any Flashing their is always a risk if something should go wrong that you will have a brick but your already near that point as you can't do anything with the phone at this point anyway.
GL & let us know how you make out.
Hello all.
I have just bought an o2 Xda Ignito (aka HTC TOUCH DIAMOND).
I want to flash it to a cooked rom. And after reading up about it on this site, it would seem that I would need to install HSPL onto my device.
Well that is where the problem lies. I get the 262 error when trying to flash it with HSPL. I have even tried to do it the manual way (placing the SSPL onto the device, run it, then install it via my computer.
I still have no luck. I have tried this more than enough times with no joy...
I've read up on a few threads with the 262 error with no joy.
It just sticks on 0% and then the above error comes up. I can't understand why it wont work.
If you need any information let me know.
Cheers.
Hi,
What version of HardSPL are you trying to install?

I'm using this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
But I have tried 2 different HSPL versions.
One of them gave me the white loading screen and then it just froze
The other just gives me a black screen and stays black, although one time i did get the phone to show the % bar on the screen, but that froze on 0% too :\.
Thank you for the response.
So I presume then you tried the most common 1.4? What were the other two.
You could try this 1.93 (HERE) if not done so already.
Run this from your PC - during the process a message appears on you device screen asking to run an .exe (select yes) the the process should start. You may find that nothing appears to happen for a while, which is not the case.
Please do not do anything until you see the processed completely finished or the system error out.

Glad it worked for you.

i own a htc diamond indian version. it has rom version 1.37.720.2.wwe. i downloaded the upgrade from official site. but it stops at 0‰ and gives error 262. what should i do
Have been following many of the excellent guides on here on how to upgrade one's ROM to a custom or more up to date one.
The phone I have is a Ubiquio (mwg) 501, and I've been trying to run one of the excalibur custom roms using the installer that comes with it.
I have ran the SDA_Applicationunlock.exe program, as well as the .cab version which runs on the phone itself. Neither reported any errors, so am assuming that it is unlocked.
Then I run the batch program to start the upgrade process, and once I get to the point where I run JumpSPL, as soon as i press 'continue' the phone just hangs, and then the program on the PC says it can't connect to the phone. Have tried different usb ports, and master reset the phone before starting, etc etc but no avail.
Can anybody help?
Many thanks!
Ubiquio (mwg) 501?????
Is it a Dash/Excalibur? No it's not all you will get is a brick if you do flash, never flash a ROM not meant for the phone...
I thought the Ubiquio 501 and Excalibur were the same thing, just different branding. Well that would explain it; any ideas what this 501 is?

No idea but the specifications are different from what i could see... Also the layout of keys and housing is different.
I don't know if this is a daft question as I'm quite new to the scene, but is there some sort of 'universal rom' that will work on any windows mobile 6 phone? i'm thinking of it as per a PC windows installation, drivers, etc can be added later. Or do they need drivers? Who knows. Or, is there some sort of app that will tell me exactly what type of phone I have?

So here's the situation. I've had a Touch before, and unfortunately after I broke my ribs I was spaced out on painkillers (which is why I don't take them) and forgot to pull it out of my pants before they did the good ol' wash cycle.
I finally got one back, and now I can't get anything going for me. I know for a fact I can flash the device since the new one came with the original stock WM6 ROM. Not even the 6.1 ROM, just plain old WM6. After several failed attempts to get Coke 2.31 on there I finally just said to hell with it and tried the MR1 update from VZW just to make sure it wasn't my PC.
Sure enough that one worked perfectly every step of the way.
Everytime I attempt to unlock the phone though it just fails with Error 262. I've tried every way I can think of.
I tried it with the 'Enable advanced network functionality' both on and off. I've reinstalled WMDC multiple times. I've tried it while in Windows Mobile, and while on the bootloader which just gives me the stock Vogue VZW info...nothing showing it is even getting anywhere in the unlock process.
I even tried the last resort of flashing from the MicroSD which of course just said loading for about half an hour and went nowhere.
I've read threads here and on PPC backwards and forwards on how to do this.
I've done it multiple times before on the old one before I sent it to an early grave.
I'm going nuts here trying to figure out what in the world it could be that I'm doing wrong.
Help?!?

Did you read my tutorial? It is the one stickied on this sub forum. If I were you, I would try an XP computer. This usually seem to give more issues than not. Also, the 262 error is a connection error, so a simple check would be to change the USB port that you are using to connect. Finally, you could try mtty (if you feel adventurous enough).... but I would rather go to the XP option first.
Good luck and let me know how it turns out!
This is what I had to do on my Dell Pentium 4 running Windows 7 32 bit to get mine to flash. I went into Control Panel/ Hardware and sound and Changed connection settings for WM Device Center. I unchecked everything. Then I right clicked on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe for coke 2.31 and clicked on troubleshoot compatibility and for the system to run it in XP service pack 2 mode. Then I ran the ROMUpdateUtility.exe as administrator and it worked!

Your guide is actually the main one I was trying to use to get this all to work out
My big problem is that I don't have any machines with XP on them around here anywhere
Even my 5-year old laptop is running Windows 7 at this point, and I don't have the old factory restore discs for it to toss XP back on there.
neuteboomt
I just gave that a try and for some reason when I uncheck all of those settings nothing sees the phone at that point, not even the updater.
I am trying to find a way to make Virtual XP Mode see the phone since over on Modaco a ton of people have managed to unlock their omnia's in XP Mode with 0 issues...I just have to get the files all downloaded to try it out.
Edit:
Well got all the files needed to try in XP Mode, and it still gives me a 262. I think I found an old image backup of my laptops XP disc though so I'm going to try to reformat my laptop and go back to XP on it to see if all this works.
I'm hoping it does, otherwise I'm going to be spending a crapload of time playing around with operating system installs
Well that image wasn't the right one for the laptop...so it was a no go...found the right image for my laptop though so it'll take a few hours to get everything all set back up on the laptop and ready to go.
I'm hoping to report back by 3PM or so today on whether or not it all worked out.
you should read through this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=569922 he was having the same issue and what i suggested worked for him
