Update Via Bootloader Mode. - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hey guys and gals.
Im after some help fixing my Imate JasJam (herm100).
I recently flashed a new rom to my device ant it dosent seem to be working properly.
You guys prob get asked this all the time but i cant find it anywhere - Is it possible to fix my phone using Bootloader Mode? If so how?
I have a 2Gb micro sd but i have no reader for it i have usb cable for computer and the new activesync.
i downloaded the rom off your sit and it worked for ages then just stopped its called _QUEROMB1_Essentials_WM6.5-21807_for_Hermes
I would be so grateful if anyone at all can help or give links or suggestions.
Thanx.
Dj_Monkman

you will need a reader if its not working via usb. If active sync is working I think you may be able to transfer the file to the card to flash, if the jasjam supports it. Better search in the threads, they may already have these answers.

downgrade via sd card

hi people,
I have upgraded my xda2 to wm2005, now active sync has crashed and i cannot get a connection going at all with it.
does anyone know if it is possible to downgrade via an sd card. I'd like to put the image on the sd card then do the downgrade from there.
I cannot use the normal methods because they all require an activesync connection.
if you do and could give me a real dummies step by step, I would be very grateful
thanks
First suggestion re-install act.sync on your PC & if your xda2 is the problem: hard-reset that one.
yeah, I have done that. I have tried it on another pc, and re-installed active sync 4
thanks
& that didn't work, too bad. Then you need advice from a xda2 specialist, & that's not me (I only know the magician). Have you checked your device's wiki section?
I have not checked but will do now, thanks anyway
success

Then tried to install tomtom3 came up with same problem but i know this defo works on my old xda. Can get tomtom1 through active sync no problem.

Copy the .CAB files to your memory card with a card reader (gps.cab, pimaddin.cab, ttn.cab, wzd.cab) then copy across your intended map. Fire up file explorer and run each of the .CAB files by tapping them - Soft reset and you should be good to go Info on setting up the GPS receiver can be found here, just use the search function and all will become clear! Hope this helps...

Install Artemis Vanilla 2.01 through SDCARD possible?

Hello.
I have just upgraded my WM5 to clean official O2 WM6 (via SDCard Flashing - worked great)
I have a problem with USB connection (it doesnt work) so is it possible to install Artemis Vanilla 2.01 by Sdcard flashing?
Thanks
How do you mean it doesnt work? What type & size of memory card are you using?

How are you charging the phone??
Have you tried other USB ports?
Do other USB peripherals work on your PC?
i expect the problem is the same as a few of us have (me included). the USB board has been blown up, usually from putting on charge in the car and then starting the car, inducing a large current, resulting in the USB control board in the phone being blown. You can still charge off USB, but nothing else.
There is a way of flashing from the SD Card, its in the Wiki, but your phone MUST BE CID unlocked first!
Has anyone found a way of CID unlocking without USB sync?
I have this problem with my usb too! I've tried upgrading other to other roms via SD but get an invalid certificate message for anything other than the official o2 rom.
I guess what we need is a way to run the USPL from an SD card before then putting in a card with the new rom on it. Any ideas if this is possible anyone?
why not try using the 12 month warranty?
its way over its warranty.
It is definitely possible. You just need to know how USPL is applied. I mean, start_uspl, what does it exactly do? It copies certain files, and then execute them on the Pocket PC.
The best solution is ask pof(developer of USPL) for manual step by step methods. You can then post it here for others too.

Carty..

Copying files no work no more!

Howdy,
Did a search but didn't find topic?
First mistake, Dnloaded and installed latest AT&T 6 Rom to me Hermes!
Second mistake, have Vista Home Prem (ugh!) Build 6000, and
had Windows Mobile Device Center installed and worked on Win Mobile 5. Could copy and paste files to SD card!
Installed on the new Rom, now I tick WMDC > Connect > GO to SD card > to paste file / app etc and get billies
"The copy and paste has failed. The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected!"
Even tho I can see files on SD card on laptop!
So I uninstall billies WMCD reboot laptop and reinstall WMCD and same error!
Now I can see the files on the SD Card, move the files around on the SD Card but no copy to SD card??????? I don't have a card reader as I used Win 5 and didn't need another reader!
Any suggestions, workarounds (besides getting rid of billies silly junk.)
Help please!

Hey thanks and fast reply,
I will try formatting sd card if I can find a way to back it up to something!
Does anyone know of a free online Back up site that I could back up sc card with Sktools bkup?
WOW have to much great stuff on it from xda forums!
I rally don't mean to add an off topic situation, but this also started when I installed the AT&T Rom. . .
The other problem that I just found out is that the sound is on, I can hear WM player out of device, but don't have sound for Skype with or w/o headset. As I can connect to call, hear the mic on called phone, the caller hears me but I don't hear the called sound on device or head set???? Im using fling and am connected with wifi, to Skype!
At least it's charging off usb sync, which is one thing that works!
If I can't discuss anothe problem with this New Rom here please move to right place and send a forward!
I really like this board, so I don't want to do anything wrong!
Thanks
Hey there,
I did a defrag SD card NO work!
Than I did a format
Connected (thats what it says but not what it does) and copy and past NO go. . . same error!
Tried to install Sk Tools, (from pc to device as before) and no go, same error of disconnected or what ever? And since I can't do a restore form pc to device, no copy, than None of my SD base apps work, Sk Tools, fling, etc!
So is the SD corrupt!
I vista corrupt (that's a dumb Q)?
Is WMCD corrupt that was working before my new Hard Drive replacement!
Or what?
Oh yea thank you for any replys!
I am also have the same problem.
Hello to all,
I am also have the same problem. Not with the sd card but with the build-in memory. I have installed the windows vista with WMDC 6.0.
I think this problem is with the OS or with the WMDC 6.0.
Because I have an another pc with windows xp installed and there is NO problem with it. Copy and past will work perfect.
I having HTC Wizard that is qtek 9100 with WM6, NBD 9.2 installed.
If any one find the solution please let me know also.
Also conection via bluetooth to WMDC 6.0 it also not possible trying to find the solution but no luck . It will work in fine with winxp but not with the vista.
Please help.........
Many Thanks
Srikanth.K
Madefree,
I would suggest a couple of things:
- flash a different rom to your device, eg a WM 6.0 from Schaps.
- review the MrVANX guides (www.mrvanx.org).
Let us know how you get on.
WB
Thanks wacky banana,
Well at least I know its not the SD card as I tried another with the same irritating gates error message!
I uninstalled and reinstalled WMDC three times and still no file transfer> I have to do any transfers with a cardreader! So I don't know if I can do an upgrade on the ROM as I really want to (as ATT 6 was really a downgrade!)
Thanks. . . .
I went to that link and they are upgrading the site. The following is stated at the ever begining . . .
.....Now make sure your device is on and activesync (or for vista users the WMDC) is running on your PC, connect up your device and allow it to sync. When this is done run "RUUWrapper.exe":.....
RUUWrapper.exe wasn't a link to a download so I guess "searching" is on really first on the "how to" list!
Thanks for the links and the reply, greatly appreciate any and all help at this point!
Have a good one!
How to upgrade my Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard)?
Hello,
Sorry I wrote wrong ROM version. It is NBD 9.2 installed, NOT NBD 9.3.
Thanks
Srikanth.k
Well DUH ATT 6 allowed me to copy to a file, but only to inside the SD card from the PC but not to the card directly (root) w/o a folder to put it in!
Active Sync works but not DUH WMDC (whatever) crashed twice in one day so Im stick with clicking on My PC > than on HTC device, than Active Sync works better than DUH other option billy made!
It's a vista thing all DUH way!
Hey wacky banana took you fine advice and downladed Schaps.WWM 6.1 Pro FULL ROM and with the excellent RRU packed with it got RID of ATT's "stuff"
Still can't transfer to root of SD, unless I do it thru a cardreader, but at least I don't have DUH branded bulk! Just need to delete (turn off duh startup sounds, so everyone around don't growl at me when I reboot!
Mighty fine ROM thx for the suggestion . . . . gotta do a donate!
Later!
Copy file worked!
Hello
The problem was with the K-a-s-p-e-r-s-k-y AV that I was been installed. It was blocking me to copy the files to my PDA. When I uninstalled the app it worked perfect without any errors.
Please anyone know which is the best antivirus.....
Thanks to all.......

Help Needed

hey guys,
i've problems to update my pocket pc to mobile 6. I tried both methods no one works for me.
First i tried to connect my pocket to my pc and started windows mobile center. Downloaded all the files, but always when i start the update, my pocket goes to the boot screen with the red, freen and blue stripes and the connection disconnects. And i get the message 260 update problems and my pocket stays at the boot screen. Than i tried the same with Windows XP and ActiveSync, the same problem again.
After that, i tried to update with a micro SD card 2GB. I downloaded the "Hard-SPL-V7"-File and saved it to the micro SD. Rebooted the Pocket, but nothing happend, the pocket stayed in the boot screen. Than i renamed RUU_signed.nbh in HERMIMG.nbh and tried it again, nothing happens.
Can somebody help me please? I want to use mobile 6, because i want to use a 8GB Micro SD.
EDIT: THANKS A LOT, but now i have a new Problem i described it in post #6 in this thread. Thank u 4 helping me.
EDIT II: Thank u all, i fixed it by myself. Finally the upgrade worked with XP and ActiveSync. The best thanks to ultramag69 again, he solved my problem.
If you are using vista you need to install this, removing all older versions
Do you have the newest .net framework on your computer from here?
You wont be able to flash via SD without HardSPL, so you need todo it via activesync.
Try another USB port.
Try flashing the shipped from for your device, you can get your newest WM6 rom from here.
If that fails, tell us:
Whats your device (theres loads of different models of the Hermes)
Have you flashed anything before?
What rom is on your device atm?
What SPL do you have atm? (Hard or not)
Also check your serial number against this list for known problems.
There are certain steps needed to be taken. First is making sure your computer has the .net compact framework. Get it here.
Only then can you run hard spl from your computer.
Also, when you put on a .nbh file onto the microsd and rename it, you need to go into bootloader not reboot. You need to hold the power button and ok button while pressing the reset button with stylus...
I have got the same problem....
Using XP not able to flash neither via Active sync nor by SD card...
Stck at MRH 8.4...
Go to post 1160 on page 116 of this thread to flash Hard SPL using the sd card method - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
You can't flash using the sd card method without Hard SPL. To flash Hard SPl on you need to do an extra step - flash with soft SPL.
To flash the os just leave out steps 5 & 6 from the above post after you have Hard SPL installed...
Cheers...
Thank you guys for helping me,
A big thank to ultramag69, your post solved my problems. It worked great.
But now i have a new problem. I upgrated the SPL to HardSPL v7 (opipro 2.10). With the help from ultramag69 it worked perfect. Sooner i did the radio update with Micro SD - worked perfect too.
So finally i tried to update the ROM, downloaded the german ROM version from this Thread copied all files to the micro SD, renamed the SPL.nbh file in HERMIMG.nbh and did a reboot (ok, start and reset buttons) like i did it before. But it shows me at the screen only HERMIMG.nbh and BOOTLADER. When i start the update it runs 2 seconds and i get the message HERMIMG.nbh - OK BOOTLOADER - OK UPDATE COMPLETE. But it doesnt start the WM6 Update. Why not? Can someone help me again please?
I think the only file that's supposed to be on the microsd is the hermimg file...
not sure if having other files there will effect it like that...

the only file that you have to copy to your SD card is RUU_Wrapper.nbh (size: about 90 MB) after naming it to HERMIMG.nbh
note that this will up-/downgrade your Radio to V1.47.00.10 so you can also check other available German Versions with other Radio versions on the Hermes Wiki

Ok so what is the status of your device now, have you flashed back to official shipped rom?
Please try these instructions. also here please view.
If the sd card is more than 2gb it won't be recognised by bootloader. The os (wm06+) is able to detect and read sdhc but the bootloader doesn't.
Did you format the sd card fat32. I know a few people who swear black and blue they did but when I reformatted it, it was registering as being fat.
Did you copy ONLY THE .NBH file to the sd card and rename it to hermimg.nbh? Won't be recognised if you didn't.
These are steps I tend to go through myself as 1 little thing overlooked can mean either nothing happens or disaster....
Cheers...
