Hi,
You may have heard this problem many times, I tried to upgrade my ROM and it failed a few seconds in because for some insane reason the phone rebooted during the upgrade, It now says USB on the top and v1.00, Tried hard reset but does not work, I have also tried to reflash the rom but I am using MS vista that uses an alternative to Activesync, so the upgrade says 202 connection error, Please can anyone help me!!!!

you need to downgrade your drivers... there's a way of doing it, but I've never done it myself, so you'll need to find someone else who has.

Activesync wont install on Vista, which to be honest would probably work fine it is stupid M$ prohibiting it to install,
The computer will detect the phone, it says Microsoft USB Sync, does it need to be a ceartain driver for this to work?
Really need help on this! Computer recognises PDA says Microsoft USB Sync, What is the correct driver, the updater is not recognising the phone
Please anyone if you have even a small idea please post it!!! PLEASE!

Yeah, sorry it took a while, for some reason this thread only popped up as new today???? strange...
For your problems... uninstall ActiveSync... reduntant in Vista, there the new WMDC (I take it you realise this?). After uninstall, connect your device and it will install WMDC with the appropriate updates, then you have to check this thread here....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723.
That thread may be dated and there may be a newer one, but there were many people using it successfully and I was one of them until I downgraded again to XP. Hope it helps.
BTW, Vista sucks A$$, it's just not ready for driver and program release, and if you get an independant memory and CPU monitor, it'll show you that the built in one lies through it's teath!!! But hey, each to it's own. Regards.
plz tell me dear how we connect in a dead stage
Other option would be to flash the ROM using a machine with XP, wich I find more easy than in vista
Hope it helps,
When I tried it in Vista I had a similar problem, I tried it on an XP machine no problems, am using Win7 now but dont know if upgrading the ROM will work yet, a bit risky.
ok, heres the story.
i have run the uspl thingy...the DOS part of it seemed to work OK and i now have a white screen on my orbit. at this stage, i have lost the active sync connection.
what do i do?
can i go straight into loading b&b v4 .ruu?
i have no idea!
help would be very much appreciated.

Just do a soft reset and start over... it happens, are you running Vista if so you need to update your drivers, use search for Vista drivers if not there I am sure there is a full thread in here somewhere on this, do some reading but dont panic, this is common and easily remedied by many different ways, jebus has spoken
i read somewhere else that even without the active sync connection, i should continue with the ruu that appears automatically after the DOS part...ive done that and the phone comes on!
do u think i can proceed to b&b v4 now? (please say yes)
whether this helps or not....
IPL: 1.25.0001
SPL: 1.11.0000
also, would you happen to now how to backup text mesages?

as you requested
I would reflash the uspl... but its your call
I alway make sure I have succesfully completed the uspl, definitely safer that waym but once again your call
Hi there, new guy here and with a big problem
i have a bluemedia pda 255, from what i understand it's the same thing with mio 168 (or not?), anyway, it was using a windows mobile 2003 SE in german and i tried to change it to english using a .bin image i found on the web.
now when it starts all i see is a white screen and nothing more, and that wouldnt be such a big problem if i could enter the upgrade tools mode, but i cant do that either, so it simply stays all blank all the time. I can connect it to my pc via usb and i can browse all the pda's files using activesync, but that's all i can do.
Before i started i've made a backup using activesync and another backup using osloader. Now i've tried the activesync backup and i get an error message telling me that the backup version is different from the one on the pocket pc.
The .ppcrom file that i've made using osloader i dont know how to use it to restore my old OS withouth having to access the pda (sience i cant).
from what i understand, there is a way to fix it using JTAG, but that's science fiction to me (i only had this pda for about two days, and this is my first pda also, so i'm a real newbie), i cant find any sort of professional service in this town to get help from them.
so... any help, any help at all would be welcomed
...is there nobody?
Hi,
I do not have the pda you have but do have some advice.
You keep saying "from what i understand" , did you get this "understanding" from this site or another?
If you got it here, please post your problem to the forum thread that has the info.
If you got it elsewhere, you may want to post there and see what response you can get.
Not trying to be cavalier here but a person can only help if they have had the experience of the pda you own, if they do not, they most likely will not post advice.
Good luck.
well. no... my understanding did not came from here, i have it from a thread started in 2005 (other site)and i asked there also, i also agree that someone can help only if he has the experience of this pda...
which is more likely why i find myself in this situation, i think i followed the upgrade guide from another pda
and about the advice, sience at this moment all i can do with the pda is to throw it at the garbage, im willing to try anything on it
id even try the jtag thingie, that requires me to open up the pda and mess around inside, but i have a great lack of info about the subject and no expertise whatsoever
kind thanks for your advices, as i said before, they are welcomed!
ok, something else then, does anyone have the RUU? the rom update utility in german for my kind of ppc? thanks
I have the same problem !
"English ROM wince2003se for MIO 168

" - http://home.scarlet.be/lataupe/W2003se_MIO168_168WWER27.rar ,but the result is blank screen and I have no idea how to fix the problem ? Any advice ?
Pls can anybody help me - by instructing me on how to flash artemis using vista os. currently i whenever i need to flash my ppc i use my brother's labtop XP-SP2! i will be grateful if somebody can help!

On Artemis I had to install some XP drivers and keep trying until it finally worked.
