hi
hi there, i tried upgrading my 02 xda executive from the software update on O2 website.my active sync 4.1 stopped working in midst and my xda is nt working now.and my pc isnt recognising the xda. the xda isnt starting up its completely dead.I tried hitting the 2 softkeys and the soft reset button and the screen lights up and it says to rollback to factory setting hit 0 zero, but nothing happens................plz help would be appreciated.http://www.my-xda.com/xdaExecSoftware.jsp
also the screen now has USB and v1.00 over it and shows nothing but this and not starting up and my pc pops a message up saying that an unknown usb device and cant be connected

Does anybody have a solution to the above problem as I now have 2 xda execs in the same situation. It's a bloody nightmare! I understand it's in bootloader mode. Just don't know how to get the xda up and running again without sending it off to O2...
Please help!

LOOK HERE I have been in this situation myself a couple of times. Personally I use method 2 which is at the bottom of the page as it's very easy to follow. I suggest you try this method first.

Those of you having trouble after a Rom Flash. If it goes wrong, start by pressing THE BACKLIGHT BUTTON, THE POWER BUTTON AND PRESS IN TO THE SOFT RESET HOLE ALL at the same time. This should put you back into BOOTLOADER. Then try your rom flash again. If the WM6 fails I re-flashed with the O2 EXEC WM5 first. Forget Active Synch saying it cant etc.
Providing you can just see some very faint words then you are back in bootloader. I have got the original O2 XDA EXEC WM5 Rom files so if you want them, as I can not find out how to put a large zip file on here then I can email it to you. Let me know on

Unable to boot up after upgrade ROM to WM6

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???

I read in here that you hold the voice button and soft reset.

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

Which is your device a G3 or G4 ? post the IPL/SPL...? of the phone to determine the version. As far as it gets to bootloaders (tricolor screen) you are safe,its just a bad flash,nothing to worry,you'll soon have it working fine.
Which rom were you trying to upgrade to ? and what exactly were you doing.First, is your phone SIM/CID unlocked,if you were trying to upgrade to a latest wm6 rom,its essential to have the phone CID unlocked
Secondly,while in bootloaders, Activesync doesn't work,you got to have a working OS on the phone to sync with activesync,but when in bootloaders and usb appears in the bottom of the screen,you can flash the rom.
Cheers!

K Jam hangs at blue screen
Hi to all,
I have a K jam more then 1 years old. Now It is giving some probem. There is no display but only light in the screen but I make call and recieve calls!.
First time when problem arised. I pressed 3 battons(2 left side and 1 up side)the screen will became perfect and when I remove the battery & reinserted, the problem arised again. When I asked some 2 to 3 mobile service mens, thay told that there is a problem with OS (By reinstalling the OS it will be repaired). I think probem is with the strip connect motherboard to the LCD, that could be cuted but service mens told no, it is problem with OS.
Where I can get the OS, WM5 is preinstalled in it.
Still it did not open the mobile. Please help me
Many Thanks for all

hopeless... people please read carefully before your do hard spl dont like me... hiks.... bye bye my diamond

You really need to provide more information if you are asking for help.
For a start.
Which Type of Diamond GSM or CDMA.
What steps you took to get into that situation, what have you tried to resolve it.
Have you hard reset you device.
Can you access boot loader?
And most important - please have some patiences.

Sorry no detail cause i'm shock to see my diamond no response anymore....
This the detail :
1. Diamond GSM... want flash radio 1.12.xx but cannot... then
2. Run diamond_unlocker.exe (later found that's for CDMA Diamond.. really stupid... hiks)
3. Googling n people said no hope must change main board ....
4. Found the price of main board almost same with the new one ...
Really unluck day....
Goodbye My Diamond... put in recycle... hiks

why don't you send it for guarantee repair? At this stage, all diamonds are still in guarantee period..
And there's big chance they will fix it on guarantee. You have nothing to lose...

So - just a pointless post to let of some steam, then.
sympathy's at your loss

Same happens to me flash with this file and my diamond dead, i bought to HTC service center and they have to replace the main board (for free) now my diamond is good

Thanks people for the suggest.... today i'll bring it to HTC Service Centre hopefully there any 2nd motherboard ... cause the new one so expensive
Read and find data more carefully to do "Security Unlocker" or "Hard SPL" to your Diamond not like me...

Hello,
is he really dead, or is he hanging on the startup screen (Black screen with white "Touch Diamond" on it)
I had a similar problem, and because it didn't startup I could not flash another rom.
Here is what I did to solve it:
Push the power button, the volume down button and the left arrow button all at the same time, then push the reset button with your stylus tip (I know it sounds impossible, but you can do it) Keep the buttons pressed (except the reset, that one you just push once)
then the phone is in serial mode and you should see a rainbow screen
You will be able to sync with your pc now, just put in the usb cable and flash a new rom (for example the standard htc rom)
hope this helps
grtz

O2 atom life upgrade help needed i read everything to this point!

Hey guys.
Im trying to upgrade my O2 Atom life from WM 5 to the latest O2 official 6.5 WM ROM.
When i tried updating normally by connecting my phone to computer and running the rom setup... my upgrade process gets stuck at Stage 4 with 0%.
If i put my phone in bootloader screen and then upgrade, i get Customer and model ID error.
After reading this forum I tried changing Pass.32 file properties from WWE to CHT and still i get the same customer and model ID error.
I even tried uploading those two files al1.dio and ext rom to a mini sd and upgrade through bootloader that doesn't seem to work either.
Can someone please guide me what else can be done step by step.
Thanks alot in advance for helping.
Ps - im using latest Windows Device center with windows vista.

hey
hey guys... please help... my WM5 keeps shuttin off by itself... really need to upgrade. thanks.

hey
hey guys... any help would be appreciated.... my phone turns off on its own and then when i click power on.. it goes straight to DSUU white screen and has to be factory reset so can't really deal with it.. please help upgrading would help.

Have you read here?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Atom
Hope it helps and good luck,

hey
hey sorry. yeh i have read that page... nothing helps me there... ok so i got my phone upgraded somehow to the latest 6.5.... but i'm facing same problem.. whenever phone turns off or restarts it goes straight to DSUU white screen.. and the only way to come out of it is by ressetting the phone to factory by pressing record + power button n pressing the hole.... to restart.
not sure whats wrong with it.

Have you asked on atom section?
perhaps there you can have more chances

hey
hey.
