I Have screwed my MDA!

I bought a MDA2 off ebay and it said in the ad it had WM2005 on it, i figured it was a typo so i went ahead and bought it. ANyway i got the MDA and it has WM2005! The main reason i bought it was to run tomtom navigator 5, now i managed to install it but the backlight refuses to work. I just want to know where i can download the original rom from as i dont want WM2005 because its not designed for the phone....
Tried to be clever and i downloaded a rom from the o2 website and tried to reflash the phone with that rom, it came up with some error message and it totally crapped out my mda. My mda is now on a dark screen that says serial v1.02 and when i put it in the cradle it changes to USB v1.02. Tried running different roms but its not accepting any. Activesync is not picking the device up anymore...
can anyone help?

OK so you want an official rom?
1) What is the HTC anme for an MDA2?
2) What carrier are you currently on?

i dont mind what rom it is...as long as it works. Carrier? I am on the o2 network if that helps. HTC anme? I have no idea what that means. If you could tell me how i can get this info for you i will

oh crap, spelling mistake on my end, i meant HTC name
also i forgot, what country are you using the phone in?

Well its a T-Mobile MDA (what it says on the device itself but i beleive its the same as an XDA2). I am in England and i am on the o2 network.
looks exactly like this

Do you mind having a non-official rom?

I dont mind at all, anything that makes it work.

ok, try hard resetting your phone, it should boot back into WM5, you will then need to download a wm2003 rom (check the WIKI for options and choose one) and install that (again the wiki should hold all the information you need)
( i didnt tell you this in the first place because i was looking to find an official o2 uk rom, however you need to give them your imei, and o2 phone number to do that, somthing i dont have )

Ok firstly, hard reset (holding power whilst placing stylus in reset hole) is the first thing i tried, its not having non of it. Just shows USB v1.02. I was able to download the rom from the o2 website by giving my IMEI of this tmobile phone (how? i dont know). There was an error durin the installation which caused my mda to crap out. Its not going past that screen at all.

during the install? as in while it was actually copying the rom?

yup m8, as it was getting transferred over

k, this hapened to me earlier todday as it happens (i was testing ivans new rom)
the reason it was caused is that the operator ID is set wrong, to fix this follow these instructions:
go to "c:\documents and settings\your_username\local settings\temp" and delete everything there.
run the origional o2 upgrade DONT PRESS NEXT OR ANYTHING, JUST START IT.
go back to "c:\documents and settings\your_username\local settings\temp"
there should be a new folder created, copy this to a tempory location.
extract the contents of this attached zip file into that copied directory.
double click on setoperator.bat
run the HimaUpgradeUt.exe in that folder to put your phone back to the wm2003 os.
if this doesn't work then i'm stumped, sorry

when i run the o2 upgrade it just shows a plf183.tmp file, no folders... ill try afew more things

ok this is what i am getting...
http://www.killerinstinct.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/xdaerror.jpg

ok maybe the password was wrong for the file
does anyone know what version of himaupgradeut the latest o2 uk update uses? then i can get the right password

i dont mind using any ROM as long as its WM2003

try the same method as above, but with these files:

[HELP] Dead iPAQ hx2110

Somebody please help me, i was trying to upgrade my hx2110 from WM2003SE to WM6,yeah it was my fault..i didn't follow the instruction very well... i was stupid, upgrading using SP29xxxx(2003 Update ROM from HP) then swap the NBF Files...upgrade complete, and now He's dead.. Pre-BL still works, but i have no luck to reflash, HPRUU flashing stop at 0.1% and it says "Congratulation...blaa..blaa" but nothing happened to my hx2110..i used to read the step to unbrick hx2110, but i don't have another iPAQ hx2000 series to do the trick..is there any other way to un-brick my iPAQ ? please help...sorry for my bad english...

well, you are sure that you are setting it into pre-bl the way you are supposed to? (it will say USB in the bottom left corner, not usb is connected) and you have deleted the whole ipaq folder off of your hard drive and (C:/ipaq) and run that service pack again right?
Your english is fine, let's try to get your device online again.

Yes, i pressed Calendar button to activate USB Mode, not USB Connected..but, still it doesn't fix the problem..
Your english is fine, let's try to get your device online again happy to hear that, thanks contradude...

sorry for being afk right now but I'm out and about (im posting this from my treo). you should take a look at the chrismrulz bootloader. its supposed to help when nothing else can. I'm surprised that the pre-bl isn't helping you fix you problem.
edit: i'll take a look tonight and see what I can do about helping you get your device up. if anyone else has any ideas, feel free to post
edit 2: I took a look around for ideas and the only one that still seems viable is grabbing another ipaq (either borrowing one from a friend or paying $10-40 on ebay and getting one you can hold onto for parts). good luck with your pda and next time don't let your excitement get in the way of methodically reading and executing the instructions. I would offer to lend my 2495 but I'm in orlando, florida usa

Wow...that's so far, shipping cost maybe will be equal to used iPAQ here...hehehe.. Thank's for your offer contradude...i really appreciate that..
Well, now i would like to show some screenshot :

}
It doen't detect Model ID and ROM but, this HPRUU allow me to flash...
The Process stops at 0.1% but, the flasher lies to me it said "Congratulation..bla..bla..bla"
and this is what happened if i'm using another ROM files such as SP33303,4PDA.RU ROM,and the others...
Wrong Language, Not Connected to ActiveSync,etc.
hmm...trying to borrow another hx2000 series, but who? almost everyone in my country using PDAPhone, rarely uses PDAOnly..any plan to sell it Mr.Contra? or maybe you'll send it to me as a birthday present ? hehehe... just kidding...This is the first time i'm using Windows Mobile Based PDA's very love it..but i killed it...
Too Much love will kill you...

Thanks hkksl..One more question, is it possible to Flash dead iPAQ using mtty / putty ? or maybe from SD/CF Cards ?if it possible, how? is there any tutorial links ? thanks in advance..
Edit :
Last nite i dream my device running WM6..Unfortunately, i was just a dream

is it possible to use this (HTC Wizard) tutorial to flash using mtty ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276963

i always run all of my updates from 'white screen bootloader' aka pre-bl. hmm... that's a very interesting screenshot. is it charging the battery still when you plug it into the dock... also make sure that after it says pre-bl and you put it in the cradle that you hit the calendar button so that it goes from usb is connected to usb. also, do you have a power adapter hooked up to your dock or are you trying to do it just over USB?
as far as trying mtty, if you want to try it in a really easy form try chrismrulz' bootloader. here is the download link for it. it prepares your rom and then uses mtty to upload to your device. make sure to turn off activesync on your computer (right click on the greyed-out icon and go to options and deactivate almost all of them). then you take that, plus your original firmware rom and put it on a folder on your hard drive with no spaces in the path (i put mine in C:/bootloader). you then run bootloader.exe and just let it do it's thing. I don't click on any of the pop-ups, other than to show it where the rom is. I hope this works for you

Thank's for the reply contradude, first of all i would like flash mine with SP29795.exe (the old ROM 2003SE) if it doesn't work..then i'll try Chris Bootloader ( even tries many times but nothing happened,maybe i didn't follow the instruction well )
I'll report soon, wheter it works or not...right now, i'm not confident with my english

WOOOOHOOOOOO!!!! I've made it, now my hx2110 running WM6 4PDA Version!!! Here's the step :
1.) Download SP29795.EXE from :
Code:
ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp29501-30000/SP29795.exe
2.) Flash it using SP2975 RUU, it will flash your bricked iPAQ into WM2003SE 1.00.14
3.) Oops, flash completed..but some error has been occured..it won't enter WM2003SE
4.) Don't panic, reflash your iPAQ using SP29795 RUU, but swap the NBF From SP29865.exe
Code:
ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp29501-30000/SP29865.exe
5.) Start flashing, after finished..voila! WM2003SE 1.10.09 should works..
6.) Now, flash your iPAQ to 1.00.00L then 1.00.00H after that go to WM6... ( see copenhagen tutorial from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1516882&postcount=66 )
7.Finished
I Would like to say thanks to Contradude, hkksl, copenhagen, Yurrix, and to everyone who made this possible.... THANKS!!!

No phone driver needed to flash the PDA section only.
The i600/i607 is required to flash the phone section or the whole ROM.

Nadavi.... THANK YOU!

Nadavi,
Thanks for displaying your PDA. My i780 has a different keyboard layout. I guess I will pass this time.
Thx.

Thanks nadavi for the rom

The skin is what SOTI Pocket Controller skin is, it's not my device.
my device is like yours
Nadavi

So have you successfully flashed your please?

If we judge by the operator fonts and softkeys fonts this should be arabic/india or something like that.
Thanks for the ROM,i'm flashing the baby now!
EDIT: Worked like a charm, it had GPRS/MMS settings for my Greek Operator preinstalled! Great! Thanks again!

I have a slight problem, the phone doesn't seem to want to activate the phone service. It just says No Service. Also the i get a "Unknown SIM status" message come up
Anyone have any ideas? Its an Orange branded i780.
Thanks

the other thing i've noticed is that it keeps switching back and forth from "no service" to "phone off"

Damn.. ahem.. steps:
c. click on the Enter Button + Function Button and while pressing them turn the i780 on
d. keep holding until the DETECT Message appears.
8. Connect the i780 to the PC.
Where on earth is the function button on the i780? Is that the one that activates the camera? And the DETECT message should show up the i780 or on PC? (logically following the steps it should show up on the i780.. but..) Anyone please enlighten me

Function is the black and white key below [A]
Now... where do I get the i600 modem drivers... Ah: http://fus.samsungmobile.com/i600/Samsung_CDMA_modem_4.34.zip

Wow! Updated with no problems, phone works normally. Modem drivers were not needed for the PDA part. And the theme and home screen looks fantastic!! THANK TO ALL THAT MADE THIS POSSIBLE!!
One thing I noticed.. when I start a call, "CFC active" shows up in the upper left corner, no idea if it was there before... and no idea what it means

Great Nadavi!!
Now iam waiting for my samsung - i hope tomorrow- .
When i upgrade this english rom can i upgrade to german when it was available without any problems?
Upgrade this Rom the Radio also?
Tasar

WHY DO I NEED THE MODEM DRIVERS? i didnt need them when i flashed the ROM last time

No joy here... Running on XP SP2. Installed AS 4.5, and modem drivers. Mirage is running in detect mode and then I start the i780 in emergency mode. XP detects the i780 but Mirage does not see it. No messages appear after Calculating done... When I disconnect the Samsung Mirage does give an error. Restarted the i780 and it runs its old OS. Any ideas?
FIX?:
1. Start Mirage
2. Click PDA and choose the BIN file
3. Click DETECT
4. Connect the USB cable
5. Turn on the i780 normally
The i780 will display PDA Image downloading... but it still doesn't work
Now enabled "skip checking the Magic Number" and I get a nice progressbar, I will let you know if this works... YES!
Very nice interface on the today screen !

[MODEM][I9505] Modem XXUEMKF

Disclaimer
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BRICKS, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS POST
What is it ?
This is a new version of a modem for the Galaxy S4 i9505.
This is not for the Google Edition.
The modem is for France, and cover the provider : SFR, Bouygues, or the phone bought without any provider ( this is my case)
it should be usable for other country, but the parameters of the modem could be not the most appropriate ???
Note : 'Version de bande de base' mean : 'BaseBand Version'...

I took this modem directly from an official Firmware, available in SamMobile web site.
How to flash ?
Get the file here : https://mega.co.nz/#!RdpWlS6a!ahKPHj5omnE-sc_31HpBHG6-2boUshtcbZo9e9RZaws
Use odin V3.04 (or odin 3.07) under a computer running windows XP, Vista, Seven, windows 8.0 or 8.1
Use Heimdall 1.4 or more recent under Windows, linux or OSX.
(see here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2071724 or here : http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall/)
I didn't try Heimdall yet. But I think it will be a good solution for the futur, as it run on all platform (I own a Mac...)
About Odin (I used this method), there is plenty of tutorial over Internet and XDA-dev.
Run the application (run as Administrator if ruinning windows Vista, Seven, 8.0, 8.1)
it works under a virtual machine (like VMware) but odin will return an error at the end of pthe process, even if the flash works properly
select the file I9505XXUEMKF_modem.tar, and check the checkboxes like this. Odin should loks like this :
after that step, click on Start, and touch nothing until Odin has completed the job.
Reboot your phone, if Odin can't do it. if you phone stay stuck on samsung logo, reboot it manually again, before trying to flash again.
some tutorial says to flash twice the modem in case of the old modem remain.
Notes :
in my case, under the Virtual Machine, the process until writing works properly.
the last step (reboot) do not work and report an error in Odin, but the flash works.
BE CARREFUL, THIS MANIPULATION IS MORE FOR PEOPLE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY DO !
Enjoy
Olivier

Is compatible with old bootloader XXUBMGA ?
EDIT: you have not posted in section correct.

Wrong section. MKF is working fine over here too, with both GE (with random reboots of course, no fix yet) and TW roms (Omega).

some tutorial says to flash twice the modem in case of the old modem remain.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Not only flash twice : you sometime need to flash the modem a first time without the Odin reboot checked. Then you have to remove the phone batery, return to download mode and then flash a second time.
There's already a full and comple thread for Modem flashing, do we need another (incomplete) one ?
