Question : Orange M500 and upgrading rom - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

Has anyone attempted to upgrade there orange m500 from 1.06 to a different rom?
I have tried using the sd card method the same way i upgraded my radio rom to 1.13 and my unti does not turn on =/
tried removing the battery, then reinserting but the unti just clicks one out of its speaker and blinks the light once without turning on the lcd.
Any ideas

Same Problem
Remove the battery - whait about 3 min. - plug ac power cable without your battery - put the battery - when the orange light on, turn on your device.
back to the life, but not solve the problem.
sorry my english, i´m from brazil. (don´t speak english)

Sounds to me that you tried to flash a Wizard-ROM on a Prophet.
This is simply impossible, so you probably bricked your device.
well its somewhat working i'm on a prophet bootloader ipl 2.09 spl 2.20 right now and i'm using a crossbow rom from the wizard section right now... (camera is not working).
what you could try is cut the charger wire open and attach the inner cable to the first battery pin (physical top) and the outer wire to the fifth pin. then go into bootloader, connect to computer and flash a prophet rom which has spl and ipl included.
dou you have a g3 or g4 device? on which spl/ipl are you right now...
I did the same thing with my s200.
I remove cable and battery, insert adapter cable and then battery until I get a steady amber light (usually takes 2-4 attempts).
When it boots up I quickly replace the adapter cable with the computer cable and Active Sync works.
I would like to reflash it but I can't since my battery is reporting 0% always, even when the battery is fully charged and it's not charging either. (And I can't get into the bootloader either.)
@crOssy: are the batteries different between models? and if so, would your proposed wiring actually work? have it been tested?

Qtek s200 dead? No charging etc.

Recently screen of my qtek started to act werid. It was dark like only a half of the pixels flashed. I thought that it is a software problem because up to that moment phone worked just fine so I tried to flash it with a new rom... and I failed... about three times... now my phone is dead and i can't even charge it - no reaction (not even a light). What should I do (burry my best friend?) ? Can anyone help ?
If you cannot charge it you wont be able to flash it again since it is not allowed under 50% of the charge. I advice you to insert a charged battery. Got any friend with a prophet? then reflash it again, doing the whole procedure described in some other posts like:

you can find some roms there too

M3000 won't start after flashing Faria WM6

Hey guys ..
i just installeerd Faria WM6 rom on my SPV M3000, and after the reboot (when it was finised) it came back and just went black.
I cant start the dham thing any more. The battery led isnt up also when attached to the powercord.
Any help please!!
this ROMs are designed for the Wizard. I dont know if you device is like the wizard. But it look like a brick... time to spend 30 bucs to buy a wizz
the M3000 IS a wizard... tell me exactly what happened Mr Richz...
Try taking the battery out for a couple minutes, and the putting it back in, and hit the power button and tell me if the LED light comes on ...
My M3000 is CID locked and try to flash it with ShellTool.
I did it yesterday with the Wizard_Love ROM and that worked fine.
But when i was flashing the Faria Rom it was completed, restarted and then nothing happend any more. totally black and wont come back to life..
i tryed it with the wall charger and the USB charger but no results, also removed the battery. But the Battery LED wont come on.
my ipl/spl was 2.18.001

M600/Prophet dead to the world!

Hi all, I need a little help!
Got an Orange SPV M600 - Had old rom - Upgraded to WM6 rom, all worked sweet. Tried to do a CID unlock using awizard1.2 (Left it alone for a while to do its thing) not i cant get it to turn on at all.
1. Tried a master reset - Camera + Comm Mgr + soft reset (Nothing happens)
1a. Tried Camera and softreset too (nothing happens)
2. Tried Charger short to Pins 1 and 5 (nothing happens)
3. Left battery out for 24 hours (Nothing happens)
I have bricked the device! - Is there anything else I can do except go back to orange or htc service dept and ask for help?
Cheers
Hi!! Where did you get the WM6 rom for SPV M600??
Have been looking for ages!!
killian1407
Go to Tonydeli7 thread on upgrading. Go & flash the WM5 NVID version.
Then download your choice of WM6 version from PDAviet.
Dogs Nads mate. I unlocked my £75 eBay SPV M600 (courtesy of the gang) to use on Vodafone company chip, but the stock crappy grey background on the Orange WM5 fone dialer skin is total toilet..Just cant been seen on windscreen mount in my car. Follow the rules written by the guys (actually went a lot quicker than the 15-20 ,mins)..JOB DONE!
..PROPR BO I TELL THEE!!
M600 Still dead!
I have been waiting an age for someone to reply to my post with a solution but non has turned up.
Still have the problem but now its gotten a whole lot worse.
1. Plugging the M600 into the wall charger I get a red led that stays on for about 10 seconds, then goes out and nothing else happens - If I then unplug the phone and plug it back in again there is no red led. If I leave the phone unplugged over night then plug it into the power I get a red led for 10 secs then nothing.
2. Have chopped a charged and tried the pin 1 white and pin 5 other cables method but I still get no response. I have tried all combos of stylus and buttons but I just cant make this device respond.
I have just about given up hope of ever resurrecting this thing!
Is there anything else I could try?
Thanks.

As you started a new thread, I posted my reply overthere.
lot of people with same problem.
hi, lot of people (and me ) got the same problem after flashing on wm6.
Look on the g4 topic under "prophet upgrading", i think you've got the same problem like me and other.
After opening my phone, i think this is a capa out :/

Problem WM6.5,

Hello guys, first of all i would apologize for my last thread in which i posted a ware, im sorry for that. Anyways i have a problem. I updated my SDA with WM6.5.21234 Standard by Gregory Full. I've been using it for 2 weeks and today i installed the HTC Tornado Radio 02.61.01 from this post (b : WM6 => "the remote party has ended this connection") (i cannot post the link :s) ... and now when i switch on the phone the 1st load screen comes and the mobile is switched of I even tried re-flashing the ROM but no luck.
How far did the flash of the radio package succeed? There is a distribution file that updates the IPL + SPL before the Radio - the flashing stops at several % values but it must continue to 100% and do an automatic reboot.
What do the lines say on the 3-color screen if you go to the bootloader mode?
everything went well, the phone restarted automatically after installation and never turned on =( ... it say's
IPL 1.00
SPL 1.00.0014
Tornado IU
Are you sure about 1.00 for IPL and SPL?
They are quite old - the latest are 2.00 and 2.0..14
I suggest the following sequence:
1.) load the stock ROM from your operator -> check the status for IPL and SPL
2.) update to the latest IPL and SPL and Radio with the combined package from Nitrogens tagline -> check if the Stock ROM still works
3.) load the cooked ROMs as the cooks indicate to do (take care about the format BINFS <size>)
i ddnt get the first step
oooh yeah Thnkx alot man this forum rocks its ok now =)
thnkx for your help
The stock ROM is the one that is on the orginal device as it is "on stock" when you buy it in a shop. As you have Super-CID your device already, you can take any other Tornado "stock" ROM from any vendor - as you like.
The advantage of stock-ROMs is that they are usually complete and everything in there matches to the other. So if such a ROM works - your device does not have problem.
Then you can start to replace pieces one after the other...
got it .... thanks for your help =)
I'm in a little bit of a problem with my i-mate sp5. i upgraded to the wm6.5 and now the orange light by the ear piece keeps flashing as if its charging even when its not plugged it. everytime i restart it i get a different battery level. i brought a new battery and it does the same thing but it doesn't charge. any suggestions? This my i-mate burnt up?
Get back to a stock ROM to see if it is a device problem. If it works ok with the original ROM, then the battery and/or LED driver are screwed in the WM65 ROM. Be sure you load a ROM that has the proper Tornado OEM drivers cooked into it.
Yea i tried that too. Im still not about to charge it fully. the phone seems to get hot too. I thing maybe the phone is burnt out. Is there a place where i can use it as a trade-in or have it refurbished or is it best i jus buy a new one
yea i tried that already. it does the same thing. the phone wont died unless i take it off the charger but it will not charge all the way with either battery and the phone is always hot. with the old battery the charge icon stayed up even without the charger being connected but the charge icon never comes up for the new battery even if the charger is connected. with the new battery it charges a little then it will die very fast because its still tries to charge itself after i disconnect the battery. one time i set the cpu to 228mhz and it overheated and wouldn't come back on until i flashed it again. you think thats th problem? maybe theres a burnt out board or something
The HW controlling the charge is controlled via 2 different methods:
- phone off: the bootloader
- phone on: the windows driver
If the "phone off" gives the same results - try a different battery. The HW inside the phone is hard to break imho.
