I follow instruction in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313486 but after hardreset.
My p800w is stuck in T-Mobile logo and version number. It can't continue booting up to windows mobile.
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..
Help how can I boot my phoen in bootloader mode???

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?

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

Bootloader
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
Hi i just had my Artemis back from tmobile, i had bricked it by updating rom..

So if i brick it i can replace it ?
Mt

i dont think that has anuthing to do with the ROM..
I have may be similar problem. I tried to unlock my htc p3300.
After doing the procedure there was an instuction to hard reset it.
When did that, my device just blocked. It starts only in the beginning (light screen with red figures on the lef top) and that's all.
In this position it could not activesynced to upload the factory rom.
Please, advise me what to do.

Sameproblem, someone has a solution?
There is a possibility to load the bootloader!
Press and hold camera & power buttons together and make soft reset with your pen and hold camera & power buttons together until it says "bootloader mode"
Here you can load your rom on to it!
Good luck!
Ps. does anyone have a original dutch tmobile rom?!

I would really apreciate some help!
thank you!
A good challenge for the I780 Specialists
I bet that the solution would be very easy
All the best to you
There are quite a number of answers posted. EFN had already explained too many times. He had said that the bootloader works fine, that's a good start.
Just get the necessary rom from EFN thread, phone rom PUHE1 and the pda rom DXHE1. There is even a tutorial on this in EFN thread (1st post).
g00ndu can you please help find the thread/topic where EFN explaines it, i'm having a hard time finding it!
thank you
I think he is talking about this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409258&highlight=EFN+PUHE1+DXHE1
download Flashing Guide Tutorial - at the bottom of the 1st post
did exactly as said in the tutorial....
nothing... it seems that the eboot is always the same.....
i don't know what else to do!
g00ndu i can't find the thread you are talking about....
where does EFN talks about the bootloader or a problem like mine??
could you please help me!
thanks!

Okay step by step:
Did you downloaded the russian rom i780PUHE1 (eboot+phone+pda)?
Did you downloaded the i780DXHE1 (pda only)?
Follow the tutorial, assuming step 1 to 4 had already been done.
(5) Launch Mirage updater. Select MIRAGE LV image as the profile
(6) Select EBOOT+PDA+PHONE and select the extracted RUSSIAN .img file
(7) Click on DETECT
(8) Switch on the phone while holding the ENTER and FUNCTION buttons (ALT BUTTON)
(9) After the system DETECT message appears, connect the phone via USB to your PC
(10) Wait until the image is written.
Before flashing to the DXHE1 rom first, please try to boot up and see if it works. If it is successful, you will see plenty of gibberish characters. This is EXPECTED, as the rom is russian.
If it doesn't boot up, then I am sorry I won't be able to help you.
Try the above first. Point to note is to choose eboot+phone+pda. Always press detect first before going through the enter+function+power on process.
If it works, please let me know.
g00ndu, thank you very much, but i already done that several times step by step....
but, unfortunately it stays the same....when i power it on it turns on the backlight but the screen remains black and nothing happens...
but thank you very much anyway!
hellboss, I'm sorry about your device. Perhaps it might be a hardware issue. I'm not sure.
While the device may have a black screen, you could try to see if the LED lights work, whether there is a sound after the system boot up. These are important clues to see if it is really hardware issue.
Once again, I wish you could find a solution to your problem.
Hi, i would like to know if it is possible to discover which ROM is installed in the equipment... I mean, the samsung doens't start i can only go into emergency mode,,, is it possible through the pc to discover which ROM is installed on it??
thank you!

I'm not really sure, but have you try to dump your rom using pdocread, one of the itsutilsbin tools? Meaning get the Part00, Part01 and Part02 raw files which is your rom dump?
If i were you I will try most official rom to rescue the device first. like i780XHC4 that one has all three (healthy and normal) parts.
dogmood i already tried.... but still nothing...
g00ndu , to dump the ROM don't i need to change some values on some key at the pocket pc registry?? if so i can't because the pda doens't start....
P.S-the first time i flashed it i did it on a pc with windows xp but all the time the process was incomplete and i need to turn off the phone and restart the phone, and at the second time was succesful, now i'm doing it on a virtual machine running windows xp pro sp2,,,,, can my problem be related to that??
thank you!
I use a VM for the flashing myself, so this shouldnt cause problems.
If flashing the official rom (EBOOT & Phone & PDA) doesnt work for u then you have to consider the fact that your i780 busted on the hardware level.
The best thing to do now is to claim for warranty and make sure u sent them beack with official rom in your phone (HC4)
Hi EFN,
well I've considered that, and I think that my next move is going to be warranty
but unfortunately the ROM that came with the PDA was not the DXHC4, i bought my samsung in Portugal.
my problem now is that the PDA became dead when i flashed it with the DXHC4 eboot, and now that i can't flash any other ROM i can't put the original ROM, which i have a dump, on it....
so i think that is not going to be accepted on warranty....
honestly i can't discover what went wrong.... I followed every single step of the tutorial to revive a dead i780....
thanks!
P.S-> EFN, I'm a great admirer of your work (samsung i780 ROMs), unfortunately I'm not going to be able to try them......but... anyway keep up the good work!
I believe for as long as the rom on your i780 is an official one (regardless of version), Samsung will honor the warranty. You have to try to know. And of course dont tell them that you have been messing up with flashing this and that
well i think so, if the rom is an official one they will honor the warranty...
that's the why of my question about a way to know the version of the ROM installed on the PDA, but i haven't discover anything...
i guess will just try my luck and send it to warranty!
thanks!
Hi all,
One of the users in our company has locked himself out of his i780 by forgetting the 4-digit PIN he set on the device (not the SIM PIN).
The problem I have is that it is running one of the older ROM's that did not have the hard reset button combination on it so I cannot reset it at all. It also won't enter bootloader mode using the usual combination (although this may be because of the countdown timer on the device not accepting input).
Anyone got any ideas on what I can do next?
Thanks.

I wonder if you can short certain pins on the flash chip to destroy the checksum and thus cause the device to reset itself - this method was used in the LinkSys WRT54G router and some MP3 players..
did you try reflashing the phone with new firmware? might help since the pin is set on operating system level (afaik), the firmware upgrade is done on bootloader level.

But he can't get into the loader mode, so Mirage is a no-go.. I suppose the phone doesent even connect to ActiveSync, hm? If it would then the official HL1/2 updaters are able to reset the phone into the loader mode and flash it
Correct, I cannot get it into bootloader mode because the usual key combo does not work and activesync refuses to recognise the phone until the PIN is entered so I cannot use Mirage or the official updaters!
Looks like I'll have to send it off to Samsung!
Cheers guys.
try contacting them first by phone and see if they can't help out. otherwise you'll have to wait for a looong time
Yeah, I've sent phones to them before, they do take a while.
They say they need them back to take the lock off so looks like it'll take a while!
Moral of this story: Don't forget that damn PIN!

Doesn't it wipe itself after the 50th attempt?
How old is that version? before Nov2007? Can you post the version number? something like "i780XXHA4"

I installed Nataly Rom on my phone and since that time, my phone start to hard reset more and more often (3 times today)
Now I don't think that this has anything to do with the rom, but more with my phone.
Now, If I turn on my phone, I just get my red vodafone screen and nothing else happens.
I tried a hard reset, even with a complete format, wich now puts my phone completly bank, but still it won't pass my red vodafone screen.
Does anyone have suggestions of how to boot it up again?
please help

try putting your phone into the bootloader screen and reflash with another rom.
I have a friend that had this problem with his phone. In his case there was a problem with the pagepool, installing a different rom as cobbs stated was the solution for him as well.

some of us have had this problem already - my advice- use tbe search function 'cmd task 29' is the answer
Hi Gort
Thanks for the wonderfull advise.
I already thought my phone was a gonner, but now I can work with it again.
For all the people who experience a phone that keeps hard resetting more often and eventually cant boot at all, here's what to do.
Procedure:
1. bring the device to bootloader.
2. Launch ActiveSync on PC
3. Go to connection settings
4. Uncheck the Allow USB Connection
5. Now, run mtty1_1_.42_538 on PC.
6. If you have run mtty1_1_.42_538, just press the button USB
7. Type CMD
8. Type task 29 and let the program do his work a bit.
9. after that, flash with the rom of your choice
here is the link to mtty1_1_.42_538
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490182&page=4
