ASUS P526 ROM Issues - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hi
I have an ASUS P526 and I had a problem of not being able to turn the PHONE function on.
The Communicaton Manager did not have the option to turn on the phone,
and I could not establish a USB connection to my PC via ActiveSync : It said "Cannot open UFN drivers"
I was using Windows Mobile 6.0
So I decided to flash the OS ROM. I downloaded SCHIST ROM v21864_clean and flashed the OS with the flash.dio.nb0 included in the download.
(i.e. I did not extract any flash.dio.nb0 files from my own ROM)
Now, when I turn on the phone, I get the Windows Mobile 6.5 SCHIST ROM 21864 clean screen and cannot log on to windows.
This is probably because I tried to flash an ASUS P526 with ASUS P527 ROM, but I could not find any other ROM to flash with.
When I download the original P526 ROM from the ASUS Website
(e.g. V618_WWE_Turkey_EXT_V158 ), I get a P526.pim file, but PIMSPLIT.EXE does not extract any " *.nb0 " files when I drag P526.pim onto it..
I am totally confused as to what to do at this point..
Please help!
I just want to be able to use Windows Mobile 6.0 , 6.1 or 6.5 with the phone, and be able to use the phone function, as well...
PS: The only way for me to flash the ROM on the phone, is with the SD card method, because ActiveSync does not work.

Hi
Tell me one thing, if you make a Softreset and click the OK button on the left will be in bootloader?
If so something can be done without sd.
The procedure is done using a ROM file.nbo, but first you must unlock the phone ...
Let me know and we'll see
Excuse my English

What do you mean Active Sync does not work? Is it a mechanical problem or a program incompatibility?
Try this: this is Expert mode in installing the Turkey ROM (or any other language).
Warning: Do this at your own risk! If not done right you might brick your phone! I will not be responsible for any damage done to your phone.
1.Make sure battery is fully charged.
2. connect your devide to PC using USB cable.
3. Run the ROM upgrade program you downloaded from ASUS site,
4. On the top bar of the installation window, "right click". A window will appear with the option "Expert Mode". Click on that. A message will appear in the window about connect USB or something (I'm sorry but I cannot remember the exact message since I have not done this in a long time).
5. Now you have to go to bootloader mode in your P526. Do this by pressing and HOLDING on the OK button <rocker switch on the left side> then press reset button <continue hoding down the rocker switch>. Your unit should go to the blue ASUS screen and a message will appear about being in USB mode or cable something <again I'm sorry I cannot remember exact message>.
6. If this appears then press the <Update> button on the installer window. This should start the installation proces.
Hope this helps. if you have any other questions or if this does not work please feel free to post again.

thanks for your good information
regards

Universal Dead flashing

Hi, a friend have 2 pda universal from vodafone that he has flashed and killed. I don´t know what happend. pda always shows USB and v1.00. After a lots o rom updates still dead, i have JAFWM, but with or without this machine is dead.
any rom especial version?
any soft?
thanks.
1. Try to restart the device in bootloader mode(Light key, power and reset pressed together)
2. Look at the display (should say Serial and version at the bottom)
3. Disable the USB connection in Active Sync otherwise the update will crash.
4. Plug in USB Cable (Screen Should now show USB at the top)
5. Start original Upgrade from your provider or take the upgrade you want to use with the MA_UpGrade_noid.exe.
6. After Flashing restart device with both soft keys at the bottom of the screen ( Buttons with - on it) pressed.
7. When asked type 0 to erase all data.
9. Device should start normally, if it doesn't do not hesitate to ask.
device always start in bootloader mode, i flash all times without problems, but when i restart device, automatically puts on bootloader mode.
after flash, make factory settings but,after this, restart in same mode.
always, when i run update program soft MaUpgradeUt_noID, detects no rom in pocket loaded.
strange problem on 2 pda´s ?
thanks
That shouldn't be a problem. Just continue to flash the rom. There could be a problem with your bootloader and the upgrade version (AKU2) you want to use.
Maybe it's a problem with bootloader.
Try it, maybe it will help you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=11414
i think same as you, only problem with ROM image, but i have flashed many roms but I can´t revive device. So i ask name of Rom tht can revive pda.
Br.
PD. how i can flash the archive attached?
The rar file mentioned above is only the bootloader you already got on your device.
In your case i would use an old AKU1 rom and to see if it works.
hi guys
i have same problem. show only boot loader mode. how to use this boot loader file. wich AKU1 file is working. my phone is MDA PRO from germany T-mobile, i wan't to update ro to English. after flashing many times, many rom no result. help me

Hello Siemens Man
Which Bootloader do you have ?
It would be great if you could make an backup of your bootloader then, that i could downgrade my phone and try to unlock it.(If do not know how to make an backup, thats no problem, because i can show you how to do it)
greetz

Did you try to update your phone to the latest orange rom for testing yet ?
If not try it out (I know it is said to be slow, but only if all orange customizations are installed) If it runs then its ok.
Otherwise try to use the exitbl.exe mentioned somewhere in this forum, hopefully it works.
connect to mtty and issue set 14 0 and then restart the device or use exitbl utility by buzz

Did you tried hard reset it?
First, don't get panic! Well.When I tried to unlock my device and make it Super CID that message appeared in my screen too.I tried anything I was told in this fantastic forum and nothing worked.Finally I was told to reinstalled windows on my PC and...it worked!! I think it's a problem of drivers. If you are desperated try it.
Good luck and be the force with you...
may the force be with you! :lol:
but like alberbrando said, don't panic. panic would only make things worse. try re-installing your windows. Hopefully, that should resolve your problem.

So do the other thing they told you and reset windows.
Which is worse? a few hours boredom of backups and reinstalls, or spending what. . . 1300. . £2600 on new PDA's for you and your friends?
I know which one I'D pick.
Try
Try with this upgrade Tools
-put nk.nbf file on this folder
-put your device to bootloader mode
-deactive active sync on your computer
-connect to USB
-Run upgrade tools

Right, don't panic, not being able to flash isn't such a big deal.
First, get an official update package for your QTek, and for your friends an I-Mate update package.
Next, hold the power button and the light-button (next to the volume slider), and stick the stylus in the little reset hole in the back. Hold the keys for a little longer, untill you vaguely see "Serial" or "USB" on the bottom part of the screen (put a little light on the screen, as the backlight will not be lit).
At this point make sure it's connected to your PC through the USB cable.
Right-click the MS ActiveSync icon (on your PC) and choose connection settings, make sure "Allow USB Connections" is unticked.
Next run the update utility, and everything should be fine again
If this doesn't help, ask again and state clearly that you've tried this already.

b4 attempting to flash
b4 attempting to flash,
chk if the 3 steps with mtty work,
if u don't get any error,
plz get ur battrey charged fully from a friend.
then attempt a flash by downloading a different rom from the one u r presently using
disable ur pc firewall
also disable ur anti virus [dont know if this is really required...but i read it in quite a few forums & it worked for me...]
flash only the rom
no extended rom or radio
use the MaUpgradeUt_noID
hopefully this should sort out ur problem....
i know coz i had the same problem....
frz
Another suggestion....
before making any other test, if it's possible, try on another PC, using a fresh rom (not the same used...) .... can be a PC problem, so test the procedure on another host ....
... sorry, again...
have you checked the bootloader version on the devices ? ... verify it before any other tentative ....

htc s620 stuck at startup

Hi,
My S620 is stuck at the startup screen showing just the htc logo and won't go any further. Anyone know how I can fix this?
Try to remove the battery, the SIM card and the memory card. Just insert the battery and try again. This worked for me.
It does not work:-( Anyone know how to put directly into bootloader mode?
Or anyone has any other tip?
bump anyone have an idea why mine stopps at the htc screen at start up?
Hard reset?
Did you tried hard-reset? You need at least one previous sync sesion, or you will loose everything stored on the device.
I tried that. Not working;-(
It does not react at keyboard pressure at all;-(

I had a similar problem and Imeicheck helped me out.
"Plan B" worked for me.
I hope this will help you.
A) flashing ANY new ROM as CROSS-MODEL-ID update
B) Fix the "Data crashes"
In case you have problems please indicate the step letter/number which is not clear / not working for you.
Just do EVERYTHING EXCAT STEP BY STEP and everything will work.
---------
A)
Please do it EXACT step by step like described now and it will work (it is ESSENTIAL that you do it EXACT STEP BY STEP)
0) turn off antivirus/firewall/everything else running in background
1) start phone in windows, connect active sync (green circle in system tray of your pc)
2) start the unlocker (phone screen will turn white, active sync will disconnect, THIS IS NORMAL)
3) when asked for KEY-FILE or COMM ERROR#1 comes up WAIT 2 MINUTES (DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING)
4) DO NOT TOUCH PHONE AT ALL for ALL the next steps!!!
5) remove USB cable
6) close the unlocker on PC
7) reconnect USB cable
8) unpack the "RUU_Excalibur_TMO_US_1.20.531.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Test.exe"
(right click on the .exe and select "Winzip->Unzip to folder..."
9) in the extracted folder you will find a file called like "RUU_signed.nbh" (.NBH), open it with HEX EDITOR (e.g. HexWorkshop) and locate the string like "EXCA20000" near the beginning of the file. Change it to "EXCA****" (all without the quotes, overwrite the DIGITS with STARS)
10) in the extracted folder you will find a file called like "RUU_Update.exe", open it with HEX EDITOR and SEARCH the string "BsaD5SeoA" and OVERWRITE it with "IMEICHECK" (all without the quotes)
11) start the just edited RUU_Update.exe now and make the ROM update (screen of phone will stay white ALL THE TIME, THIS IS NORMAL)
12) wait till update is complete and phone will start with the new ROM
13) To fix the "Data Crashes" problem just make a COMPLETE run of the unlocker (see B) ) and you are done.
---------
B) To fix the "Data crashes" you only have to make a COMPLETE run of the unlocker.
Please do it EXACT step by step like described now and it will work (it is ESSENTIAL that you do it EXACT STEP BY STEP)
0) turn off antivirus/firewall/everything else running in background
1) start phone in windows, connect active sync (green circle in system tray of your pc)
2) start the unlocker (phone screen will turn white, active sync will disconnect, THIS IS NORMAL)
3) when you get COMM ERROR #1 WAIT 2 MINUTES (DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING)
4) DO NOT TOUCH PHONE AT ALL for ALL the next steps!!!
5) remove USB cable
6) close the unlocker on PC
7) reconnect USB cable
8) start unlocker again and now it will complete the unlock
9) at next start the "Data Crashes" will be away.

s 621 stuck on wm6
hello
Need Help pls! my new htc dash has stucked on the wm6 logo, active sync does not recognize the phone . it happened after ive installed on phone language extender
could any1 help pls...?
thnks
Ok this is what you do, hold down the camera button located to the right of the space bar for like 10 seconds, then while still holding it own plug the USB in and you should see the menu come up with three colors. This is where you load your original ROM and if its T Mobile you can get the rom from the website.
s 621 stuck on wm6
thank you very much for ur reply. i got the 3 color on screen. pls advise meaning of "flash..." pls note im not a t mobile member
thank u so much for helping
Oh ok I can get that rom for you, well flash means to install. Let me ask you one quick thing is your phone tmobile branded. Like does it have the tmobile logo on it or not.
s 621 stuck on wm6
nop
the phone aint branded
i actually got wm6 and when i try to install it the black window says there s no device connected..
Um... Well use this file to reflash it okay. Make sure that the tri-colored screen is on when you try to install the rom (reflash means install ok)

HTC TP2 bricked? Freezes at Start up!

Please help!
My HTC TP2 freezes at start up with the black screen and the Touch Pro2 Logo and some details in red at the bottom:
B 80
R 4.49.25.17
G 61.44tc.25.32U
D 1.86.67102
No USB connection can be established.
What happened:
1. Tried to update from original WM 6.1 to WM 6.5 by using the official HTC ROM update utility. Seems like USB connection broke during update and update freezed at 42%. Update utility process has stopped by itself (no process visible anymore in the Task Manager).
2. Restarted phone and multicolor screen appeared and stayed. After connecting with USB cable again "USB" appeared at the bottom. Started again the HTC ROM update utility which recognized the phone and started the update process again, but stopped at the beginning with an error message stating something like the ROM is broken.
3. Restarted again (by removing the battery and hit power button) and state reached like described above (HTC TP2 freezes at start up with the black screen and the Touch Pro2 Logo and some details in red at the bottom).
4. Performed a hard reset but did not help.
What can I do to bring the phone back to life?
So you can't or can get in the colored screen now? (the boatloader)
And it's kind of normal that their nothing happens after the tp2 + red information screen, this since their is no rom to startup.
EDIT
Is it possible to tell exactly what error you got?
EDIT
Try to hard reset your device, do you know how to do this?
If not this is how to do it:
To perform a hard reset
1. With the device turned off, press and hold the TALK/SEND, END and POWER buttons until you see this message on the screen.
"This operation will delete all your personal data, and reset all settings to manufacturer default. Press VolUp to restore manufacturer default, or press other keys to cancel."
2. Release the TALK/SEND, END and POWER buttons.
3. Press the VOLUME UP button to perform the hard reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.

This is just what worked for me..
Had the same issue on my tp...
Hope it will work for you.
Did already the hard reset - but this did not help as nothing changed!
One further info: whenever I insert the battery the device automatically starts up - until it freezes again at the start up.
Can someone please help?
It's normal that the device starts up when the battery is plugged in...
But this is just what I know out of my own experience.
So sorry I can't help you farther.
EDIT
Did some research you might want to try to flash your phone by micro sd... (not for sure if it helps but by some people it did work)
Read the tread about flashing at the top of the rhodium section and you know how to do it.
Did another trial: downloaded and copied a RHODIMG.nbh to the micro sd card, inserted it again and pressed volume up at startup -> colored screen appears shortly, then switches to a white screen telling "Loading..." in blue font color, but nothing more.
Is there anybody out there who can help?
Do I need a specific RHODIMG.nbh to make this approach working? I didn't flash this device before, so it has been still in the original manufacturer's state.

suppose 2 press down volume not up after soft reset
This may help,
Try entering bootloader by switching off device then switch back on holding down the Vol down key.
If you can enter bootloader this way then you wil be able to flash from SD card following the instructions from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
if you want to flash the Official update from HTC you can extract the Nbh from the Exe file you downloaded from them, just use winzip, Zzip or Win RAR to extract the contents from the Exe you are looking for RUU_signed.nbh..follow the above thread instructions to change the name of the file to RHODIMG.nbh.
I DONT KNOW IF YOU NEED TO HARD SPL FOR THIS..Probably better to do it than not. Can Anyone Confirm???
i hope this helps
Device is up and running again !
Could enter bootloader mode and tried first to install again via the official HTC installer -> worked!
Thanks a lot for your support!

For future info, from what I have gathered you must hardSPl for all ROM flashes. If the ROM you flash is the stock ROM, you can also revert your SPL to stock. For any other ROM, you must leave your device hardSPL'd.
Hope I helped.
how were you able to connect the phone with the pc. i seem to have a similar problem but am finding it difficult to connect the phone to the pc. i have activesync installed but cannot connect to the phone

is it possible to connect to active sync in bootloader, cos my phone cannot even boot, it freezes up with a white screen and htc logo.
After entering bootloader you can flash either way,either by ruu package provided by your ROM's maker or running official ruu release or if you have the renamed file on the root of your sd card....I never use sd card flashing and have never had a failed flash...If in bootloader it will not connect with activesync,but device should be recognized by ruu.exe

I want the software of the jasjar which come with the installtion cd ..
I tried to join the jasjar with the pc but there's a problem with the usb ..
Plese help me as my mobile now like dead body
Thanks In Advance ;
Hello,
First instal ActiveSync 4.5 in PC. - if not already installed
Code:
http://www.softwarepatch.com/windows/activesync.html
Then in settings in (ActiveSync) disable (NOT check): "allowed to connect to one of the following port" and "Allow connection to USB".
Perhaps the translation is correct. I use the CZ version. But it's second and third check box.
Now
This works for when the Universal is in Bootloader and Windows Mobile.
1. First download the ROM you want to install.
2. Extract it to a folder (use winar or other extraction software).
3. There will be up to 3 ROMs in the package: ms_.nbf (Extended ROM), nk.nbf (OS ROM), radio_.nbf (Radio ROM)
4. Delete those which you don't want to install. (If you just want to upgrade the radio rom for instance delete ms_.nbf and nk.nbf and leave radio_.nbf.)
5. Download UniversalRUU.zip
6. Extract it and copy into that folder the nbf files you want to install.
7. Enter BootLoader mode by pressing and holding the power button and backlight button whilst performing a reset with the stylus. And plug to PC. Wait few seconds.
8. Doubleclick ROMUpgradeUt.exe and follow the instructions
9. When the upgrade is finished pull out the USB cable from the Universal.
10. You will need to do a soft reset OR hard reset depending on the situation. (note: some say do a soft reset / others a hard reset .. possibly someone with more knowledge could correct me here, but until then it's best to investigate the matter for yourself on the forum.)
11. To do a hard reset (push the two menu buttons ("-") on the keyboard + the reset button at the same time (all of this three). Doing a hard reset will result in you losing all your installed apps and data so ensure you have a backup of everything first.) Everything should be fine from this time.
