Cant flash rhodium - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

As the topic says i cant flash rhodium hardlockerspl unlocker.( and my eyes are bleeding from reading) I turned off all virus protection,firewalls. I unpacked the rhodium hardspl v200r2185hspl. When i run the program it starts then says fatal error. It says my phone is not synced. I know it is because I'm looking at the active sync screen and it says connected. Ive gotten all the other stuff working i wanted, now i just want a better radio. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. I really appreciate the help and maybe one day i can help others. By the way its a att tilt 2.

If you have a Tilt2 and you haven't already enabled RAPI, run this cab file, restart for good measure, and try connecting your device again.

Updating JASJAR

Hi all,
I have been trying to check out the forum here, to try and solve my problem, I literally bought my JASJAR today, and it was giving some wierd behaviour. In an attempt to reload the software (I prefere to reload the entire ROM), something went wrong, now all thats on my screen is "USB" and a lil lower down "v1.01".
ActiveSync obviously not connecting now bcos the OS is not on the JASJAR no more, in my device manager is a "Microsoft USB Sync" under my mobile devices.
I downloaded what I am guessing is WM6, 'JASJAR_WWE_20106_20301_11300_wwe_ship' from another thread in this forum, tried to load that but cant communicate with device cos no activesync.
I have tried the different reset options, like the 2 function keys and the reset on the back, I push 0 to clear, and then it jus goes back to the USB v1.01 thing.
I am running windows vista home basic, with the Windows Mobile Device Center, it synced perfectly with this software, communicated properly with the update tool, until my device reset and activsync lost connection, then i was stuffed.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like it is your first time with the upgrade. What you are seeing on the screen is the bootloader, which is what we use for flashing new ROMs.
ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center (how come you have both on Vista?) will therefore not respond. This is fine, because we use a different program to load the new ROMs.
If you look at the folder you downloaded, chances are that there should be a program called "ROMUpgradeUt" or something similar. Provided that you have not changed anything in the folder, you should be able to flash the new ROM by simply following the instructions in the program.

how come you have both on Vista?
Sorry, I don't mean to sound like I have both, I recently moved to Vista, and am used to calling it activesync and not WMDC.
Thanks, will have a look
Ok, well I have got it up and running again, only problem now is activsync keeps freezing when I try and sync the device...any ideas?
I landed up using my work computer, which has XP on it, and then used MTTY and that connected fine, on Vista it simply didnt wanna work.
I ran the utility for those 'stuck on serial/usb', and that fixed it. Now I would like to load up WM6, but it keeps getting communication failures.
Thanks for the help guys....I got it working...running on WM6 now...whoo!!

My Tmobile MDA is stuck in bootloader w/tri-colored screen!! CAN SOMEONE HELP?

I need help desperately. When I turn my phone on - it shows a tri-colored (Red-green-blue)screen (with small white at the bottom)
My phone was working just fine - but when I turned it on yesterday - it showed this wierd screen. In the top right corner, it says: RUU
In the red section it reads: IPL 2.26 & below that it reads: SPL 2.26
When I try syncing it - the computer does not recognize it. What can I do? I've looked at the site and searched for a solution. I stayed up almost all night trying to fix it, using MTTY (but no response from the phone). The only thing it does is show USB, when I plug it into the computer.
Other than that - nothing happens. I'm very exasperated. Can someone help me out?
Thanks
Have you first of all tried hard resetting the device?
If you have to no avail then the fact that your PC can still establish a USB connection with your device (Hence USB displayed in the bottom left of your device's screen)means you should be able to download the latest MDA rom update from the T-Mobile site and re-flash your device to get it back on it's feet. There is plenty of advice on the boards on how to re-flash and it is quite straight forward with the original signed ROM's (no unlocking required)
I hope this helps you in some way and if anyone can provide a link to the download needed please chime in.

Did you try flashing a new ROM recently? A failed flash can cause that to happen. If not, download T-Mobiles ROM and reflash it and it should go back to normal. Unfortunately that means you'll lose any info that you had on there so hopefully you have it backed up. Before you do that though, make sure it's not doing that because you're accidentally pushing the camera button in while your rebooting your phone. I can see where that would happen accidentally because I'm constantly looking down at my phone only to notice the cameras activated because I accidentally hit that button.
Thanks a lot. I'll give it a try and see what happens
I can't get activesync to connect w/my device! Everytime I try - no luck. I've tried the MTTY and still nothing. Can anyone suggest a way for me to use? When I connect the MDA to the computer - it registers in my device manager, but Active sync won't identify it??!???
You do not need to be connected to active sync (if you're in bootloader mode) to flash an original signed ROM. Just connect you device to the PC, If your device has the tri-colour bootloader screen with USB listed in the bottom left hand corner of the screen (like you said in your first post) you should be able to reflash. Just run the Installer that you have download from the T-mobile website and it should perform the reflash. Forget about active sync for the moment until you get your device up and running again. It really is quite a simple operation. If this does not work for you, you're device might have a genuine fault. I feel confident it should work though as i have been in this situation myself with the MDA-Vario.
P.S What type of device do you have and which country are you in? This may enable me to help you a little more in finding the correct ROM if you don't already have it.
Do let us know how you get on
Cheers

I have the MDA and I live in the USA
thanks for all of your help. I'm still trying - but nothing seems to be working
Did you download the T-Mobile ROM from their site and try to reflash it? If you did, what happens when you run the update exe?
Don't worry about not connecting to activesync right now, if you're in bootloader mode it wont connect.
Here is a link to the T-mobile MDA (USA) Get Software page. you'll have to enter your phone number to get the software you need. Its a big download (Approx 50MB) so be patient. There are also instructions on how to perform the upgrade there.
Good Luck and let us know.

Help Help Help Uspl Trouble

HELP!! Im trying to replace my current german language orbit rom with B&B4...activesync was working and my screen went blank like it was supposed to...but I instantly lost activesync when it did...I can not go any farther. What do I do??
I have replied in the other forum, please don't post in more than one forum.
sorry.
I figured it out. Just procede through the USPL setup even though it says make sure activesync is connected. (activesync is dissconnected when screen goes blank but will still update correctly) thanks again guys
of course when your device resets itself activesync connection is lost. even usb connection is lost for a short time (you can hear the ding-dong and dong-ding sound). activesync needs a usb connection and software running both on pc and pocket pc. so when your device starts into bootloader you cant have an activesync connection. but to flash some stuff all you need is a working usb connection.
I can understand that but
I see what your saying...but when your flashing anything be it a PSP, P3300 or anything else where there is a possibility of bricking it, your going to try not to deviate from the instructions...so when the screen goes black and you have to check the box which says you've complied with the above steps and a connected activesync connection is one them...time to hit the forums and get a few things cleared up.

Having trouble upgrading to WM6

I have an 8525 and I am trying to upgrade to HTC_TyTN_WWE_3[1].54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108.exe and I keep getting the same error message. "Error 264 The Update Utility cannot connect to your PDA Phone. Please check that your USB/cable is connected properly between the PC and your PDA Phone " My phone is connected and everythign appears fine until I try try to update. I have even tried the guide at http://www.mrvanx.org and that doesn't work either. Any ideas?
Invalid Vendor ID
O.k. I am a little further. It starts the install and then I get the "Invalid Vendor ID" error message.
Do you have activesync installed on your pc?
Are u using vista or xp?
I'm also having a problem trying to upgrade to WM6. Whenever I start the process it switches my phone into standby then as activesync can't see the phone I get an error message!
What are your answers to the two questions above? Running vista or xp? What version of activesync if any are you running?
Are your phones unlocked, CID, etc?
I don't know if it is required or not for a "official update" but have you installed HardSPL?
On another note, I would post this question into the parent thread for the rom that you are trying to install, that way you may get more looks. Good luck
Running Windows XP with Activesync 4.5 not sure about SPL?! How can i find out?
See here, http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeForBeginners
Read over all of this, in Re: to the hardspl, i believe its the first hyperlink listed.
Assuming that you are set on that particular rom, what I'd do is extract the rom file from the package you downloaded using winrar and then use customruu to load it on. Ive' never had any problems with it on XP. This protects against bricking as much as possible. Also just in case you haven't seen this before, flashing roms and hardspl from here will void your warranty if you need to have it serviced at any time. There is a way to get back to warranty acceptable 'standards' though. But you can't take it in as is.

Flashing Problems

I didnt want to post this in rom developement, cause it didnt seem like the place to do it. My apologies if this is out of place.
I tried flashing my phone, followed the guide to the T. Started my hardSPL program, got all the way to the point where it would open the phones bootloader, then active sync crashes and i get an error screen on the phone that says it cant open the bootloader.exe
Anyone else run into this? Is the sprint TP2 different?
Tried manual and it wont even open the manual SSPL exe file.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
Hope that helps
Good luck,
thats the exact guide i was following.
Tried again, still no luck, the program connects, checks my ROM version, then the progress screen picks up, active sync on the PC completely dissapears. then i get an error in the unlocker that says cannot make connection.
