Need help with XDA Orbit - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Hi Guys,
I'm a noobie and need help with the orbit.
I tried updating to the orbit_WM6 which I downloaded from rapidshare. It said if the rom update freezes then you stop it by resetting the xda. I did this but now the xda doesn't seem to be going passed the screen where it gives you the information "IPL 3.04.0001 etc". When connected to the laptop it's not picked up by the computer!!
What shall I do? I haven't bricked it have I?
Thanks for the help in advance

When I connect it to the computer it doesn't recognise it so how can I reflash it?
I can get to the bootloader.
The information I get on the carrier screen (02 Welcome) is as follows:
IPL 3.04.0001
SPL 3.04.0000
GSM 03.06.90
OS 3.4.0.0
Please can someone give me some step by step instructions?

If I try using start_uspl I get an error 'No device connected' and it says 'Can't spawn "cmd.exe": No such file....'. It fails at line 69 and then completly stops at 81.
Any advice?

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???

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

Is your computer recognizin' your PDA. What happens when you connect it to the USB port ? Also, try after removin' SIM and the SD.
P.S: And you still need to tell me, what error msgs do ya get ?
my computer does not recognize my jasjar
I am so sorry what i remeber it was error code 101 , do you know i think the version that i tried to upgrade was not to universal
that's why this probelme happend.
I presume that you are tryin' to install the ROM designed for Universal
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader_Serial
try this, or search xda-developers usin' google, you may find the solution.
Error code 101 is actually connection error.
hey, are you usin' Windows Vista

Good Luck..
thanks !
i havent tried the method 2.. but method 1 doesnt seem to work..
many thanx..
ok that methods doesnt work.. im stucked not in bootloader... i can exit bootloader but the system doesnt start... when i press the reset button it just keeps white screen (w/o backlit) and nothing happens.. if i connect the phone in that state just unrecognizes it and if i press the light and power buttons (without resset) it starts the bootloader.. its not reading the rom
every time that i try to flash a rom on it just fails, and it gets the error 112, on every 7%... how can i fix it?

I have the same problem. I mistakenly flashed the wm6.1 rom meant for BA. I dont think there is any remedy for this problem because the unit is not coming on and so cannot enter bootloader. The only sign of life is the red led which means the unit is not seeing the power supply ie it does not recognise that a battery is instaaled. No one has ever come up with a solution. The unit is bricked fullstop. I am already bidding on another unit on ebay.
i did chat with imate support and they advice me to go to any service center and they will fix it.
i tried many kind of solutions but it does not work so my last choise is to send it to imate service center.

The Tri Color screen is the bootloader. When connected to the computer it should say "USB" at the bottom. Otherwise it says "Serial".
EDIT: What version is your SPL? The unlocked version is 85.

[Q] Rookie Mistake

Hi I have and IMATE PDA2k EVDO and I tried a d-two rom and I now have the device sitting on the 4 color screen every time I reset it. Any idea how I reset it back to defaults so I can load another image onto it, I have the original image. any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Actually I just fixed it.
Anyone know of any WM5,6 or 6.5 roms that work on this phone. The EVDO network is dead here in Australia so I just want to convert it into a PDA.
For the love of God... if you are going to make a thread saying "Hey guys, I broke this, how do I fix it?" Do not EVER update with "I fixed it!" without telling us HOW you fixed it.
I thought it was such simple fix it did not requiere explaination. To enter the bootloader you do the following
Press Power + record (above the volume slider) + softreset at the same time.
This puts it into the load mode so you can reflash.

You sir are an idiot.
A Blue Angel rom will not work for a Harrier.
So delete your comment because some other idiot will follow your bad instructions then **** up their phone and make another idiotic post.
Yea so did anyone figure out this whole problem with the white boot loader screen? I'm no where near a programmer or anything but I think my boot loader version is out dated. My HARRIER, not blue angel, is stuck at a white screen that reads Serial(USB when connected to usb of course) and v1.02. I've had a Harrier before this and it had the four color screen for boot loader. Am I on to something here?
Oh btw I already tried to reflash the rom over and over but updater keeps saying it can't connect.

Please be careful: This is a Blue Angel (BA) Thread!
As Hima and Alpine Fora are closed, i will try to help as well as possible,
but please post marked "off topic"- hope moderators won't intervene...
And always first work out which device you're talking about.
Still love Alpine...
@admin: I know it's quite impossible to keep all these legacy threads alive- but what about some rescue thread, e.g. for non-touch-screen-phones,the Hima-BA-Family?
As i know from Siemens/BenQ Phones, it has gone silent around here, but from time to time some collectors appear which shouildn't be left alone.
