Also tried to flash ROM RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID
But at 80% I get error..
ERROR [326] : INVALID COMMAND
This file cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please check your NBF file

I had the same problem with my JAMin. I messed up trying to flash it with a home-made ROM and the tool used to build the ROM put two G4 SPLs instead of one G3 and one G4. This caused my G3 JAMin to have a G4 SPL. It wouldn't boot past the "rainbow screen" and the IPL and SPL levels were similar to what you have now.
The solution for me was to have it repaired under warranty :roll:

My charmer is still under problem.
Actually problem is that.. My phone is G3 chipset.. but someone flashed it with G4 flash files.
and Its spl and ipl is 2.xx.xxx and phone is detect as G4 chipset.. but phone is G3..
NOW ANYONE can guide me how I can write G3 Ipl/spl
waiting.

As I mentioned my JAMin was repaired under warranty. When it was returned to me they had replaced the main board. So it seems to be quite a problem to re-write the SPL if it has been flashed with the wrong type.
The new board has the G4 flash memory, so no more unlocking/downgrading adventures for me

Hi,
Yes You may be right, we need a ROM with only G3 IPL/SPL or only G3 SPL and if we can force this G3 SPL (I think JAFWM can do it but not sure) into the phone the problem will be solved.
But Question is where can we find this "RUU_Charmer_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship" as it is not available on net, the file on FTP is corrupt.
"RUU_Charmer_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship" have both G3 & G4 IPL/SPL and when we write this ROM into phone it writes G4 IPL/SPL as Phone is detected having G4 by every software.
Otherwise the only option left is "JTAG" but only one guy (ARC but he lives in Russia) know the test points for Charmer.

I solved this problem before using JAFWM dongle
just uncheck skip ipl/spl and try flash
it will flash ur mobile with the correct IPL and SPL

Thanks for your Quick Reply, please tell us as which ROM version & which JAFWM version you used.
Thanks

i used rom JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021 and JAFWM ver 2.2g

Thanks Man,
can u please confirm me that you had same problem of G4 SPl on G3 DOC.
Because JAFWM detects my phone as G4 DOC and the ROM you mentioned has both G3 & G4 SPL so I think It will try to write G4 SPL not G3.

sorry for the mentioned rom
this one not for charmer
just detect ur phone in JAFWM , chose the nk file for ur charmer , uncheck skip ipl/spl then flash
in that way i think ur mobile will be revived again

i have uploaded it to here: http://savefile.com/files/157293

Thanks Shayd
First of all Thank u very very much as I was not hoping to get such favour from any one so Thank You Again.
Yes I did give it a try, its not working with the message that "please get a new NBF"
I hope someday I may be able to use my Charmer Again.............

JAFWM (whatever this is) is not working (as mak_us1977 mentioned)?
BTW, how do you know if your machine is G3 or G4? By looking if your unit is P200 or P300? And to confirm,
SPL 2.06.0001 only works on G3?
SPL 2.15.0001 only works on G4?
Want to put this on the Wiki to avoid future similar problems

Just Want to Know if U had SPL 2.xx.0001

This SPL is NASTY.

Ipl Spl 2.21 Solution.!!!

my prophet g4 device accidently flashed with 2.21 of wizard............
it was dead but now alive !!!!!!
cut of charger 2 wires inside. the + one (white) to pin1 of battery and the other wire to lowest pin 5. of the high voltage ur device will enter bootloader and stay in it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
connect usb cable and it will recognized =))))))))))))))
u can flash now to your earlier rom. in my case wwe 2.20 qtek rom with success. NOW device booting up again showing 2.21.0001 IPL AND SPL
but its working =))))))))))))
SO HAPPY !!!!! HOPE THIS WILL HELP U !

Wow!
Wizard bootloader in a prophet!
I bet you wont have the battery problem with a wizard's crossbow rom!

bootloader
hehe hope so i will test but now i wont touch it again for a while! it was very hard work finding this out.
i would like to mention everything is a little slow at least i think it is compared to earlier. maybe im wrong but this could be the result of the 2.21 ipl and spl

maybe you can repair your bootloader now.
I have an idea of how you could do it with g3.
Is your cid locked?
Is your phone g3 or g4?

phone
its g4 xda neo cid locked
UPDATED NOW NEW TESTS DONE. IPL SPL = 2.21
if i use prophet roms now everything is slow on device not usuable. i have to use wizard roms LOL. only problem then no sound is working. but replacing dll from prophet gives u sound back again. ........ THIS IS ****ING BULL****. anyway its usuable again now. i flashed now the fucing pbootloader of wizard into my device..........................
Hardreset does not work anymore if holding camera and other button it goes again back to bootloader now i need to find out how u do a hard reset on wizard LOL.
anyway i need a IPL AND SPL From prophet ............... extracting ipl and spl from qtek prophet and traslating it making a new nbf results in a flash process but after i stays on old IPL SPL ....................... ill report soon more about this strage problem having a wizard bootloader on Prophet.

omg this is ****ing weird
that that works is really strange^^ thank you though again you rescued my device hope its gonna work for me I'll report in the next days...
so if I'm doing thats right the whole thing is working, while you are connecting the wires get don't plug the wall chargare in so you don't have elictricity and cover up the rest of the pins im not sure if thats necessary but you don't wanna brick your phone even more the phone is turning of though as soon as you disconnect the wires... i'm having a prophet rom on it right now i'm trying a wizard rom now...
alright im running the wizard aku 3.2 rom now. its working very well except that i have to wires coming out of the back of my pda.
but ipl downgrade might be possible from there... so thank ýou alot the solution works

your welcome
i will make a paypal account now so u can donate me i guess this solution is very good and no need to pay for it =)
UPDATE: IM NOW ON 2.26 TMOBILE WIZARD NOW WITH IPL AND SPL 2.26 THIS IS WORKING ****ING GOOD AND TRUST ME ITS FASTER THAN MY PROPHET WAS EARLIER WITH PROPHET BOOTLOADER.
GET THE TMO 2.26 from FTP and flash it. it will update ur device (IPL + SPL )too 2.26 never mind of it
IPL DOWNGRADE is NO PROBLEM FOR ME u can extract rom hex edit the ipl part and version number i did that already my ipl now is again to low number (custom) 2.01 but spl i coudnt find out to edit. im working with winhex and primary memory editing since this is very dangerous i dont suggest to do it. only experienced users should do that
WARNING WARNING WARNING !!!!
I WANT TO REPEAT AT THIS POINT AGAIN DONT TRY THIS ON WORKING DEVICE!!! ITS JUST A SOLUTION IF UR DEVICE IS ALREADY DEAD!!!!!!

can u take a pic for the wires?

wires
NO need to i will explain in detail.
1. Take ur phone and put it on ur table =)
2. Turn it so u can see the camera
3. On the right u see 6 Pins.
4. The Pin 1 is nearest to Camera
5. Pin 5 would be far away from camera.
u got it now ?

it worked for me with the sixth pin to by the way but that might be why it doesn't work without the wires for me yet.
did you cover up the other pins alphazero?
you were able to flash a lower bootloader back onto the device right with some kind of hexedit application or something?
I think a lot of users would be glad if you could upload a rom that can downgrade the ipl and spl including me , as you said it requires a lot of skill to cook the right rom...
thanks man

Just a quick one. If you can downgrade the ipl and spl to 1.xx.0000 or 1.xx.0001, could it be possible to do CID unlocking?

Downgrade
I could do compile a rom that downgrades ipl to whatever u want. the spl is coded and i need to find the place in a spl rom where version id is written.
i found out that the update rom process checks version id.
so theory is fooling of a lower rom a higher rom id. this means your downgrade rom will have a higher rom id.
im working on it right now. i have to do some test on university right now like many others please be patient.

Status: IPL DOWNGRADE OF ANY G4 successfull !
SPL DOWNAGE OF ANY G4 under work !

haha be patient and 2 minutes later you post it
spl 2.21 is working normally on the prophet anyway doesn't it?
can you upload that downgrade?

how is it coming ...did you find out anything new?
if you manage to downgrade ipl and spl to prophet version you are where you were before you flashed the wizard rom right?

answer
yes it would solve the accident wizard g4 rom flash on prophet!

but isnt spl on the prophet 2.21 anyways and only ipl is 2.15?

Dear Alphazero is it possible to solve wrong flashed g3 with jesterz g4 rom so now i can be only in bootloader mode and i can start flashing my prophet but please tell me how and what with On my bootloader screen now is written IPL 2.10 and SPL 2.20.0001. Please help me repair my prophet if it is possible
Should I do something with cutting battery pins?

uhm no the battery pins was because our device did only turn on if it was plugged into the charger, which meant you couldn't plug it into the usb at the same time to flash a new rom.
your problem is different and can't be solved with that solution... sorry sd goldcard i guess

Yes but i can only connect to mini usb and from bootloader i can flash it with battery full so please tell me shell i cut some pins from the battery and what with should i try to flash

qtek s200 help!!!

i updated my s200 with a crossbow rom and now its dead
the update was sucssfull but when i push the power button the screen fliker for les than one sec and that it
my s200 will not go even to bootloader
any ideas ?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292667
what ipl/spl do you have?

i have a G3 idont it was 2.20 i think

plz check again if its 2.20 or 2.21 and hope that its 2.20^^
edit:
mh you have g3 ... try the solution out that i mentioned before and try the cid unlock from pdamobiz.com... then reflash an older rom with spl/ipl.
edit:
the pdambiz can only be flashed when you are in align screen... if you have 2.21 take a wizard rom and go into align screen with active sync connection and flash the cid unlock rom.
if you have 2.20 then just try another prophet rom out and see if it works...

my s200 already cid unlocked

alright here is that one:
RUU_Prophet_2090732_20907115_020720_QtekGER_Ship.exe
sorry that its in german but its the only one I have right now... you can also change the language with some programm which is available here in the board..spl and ipl is included and it should downgrade you pda to 2.09
its an original shipped rom, they are always for g3 and g4 right? it doesn't say anything about that, anyways i used it on my g4 and it worked so you might wanna check out before as you have a g3 device, but I'm pretty sure it works for g3 and g4

so i maneged to get my s200 into bootloader
i now i have IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.01 but my device is G3
so i tried to flash RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe
and its start and when it reached 95% igot an error that says
"ERROR 326 ivalid command, the nfb file cannot be used with your pda phone
and one got and idea what to do ????

just now i tried to flash "RUU_Prophet_2090732_20907115_020720_QtekGER_Ship.e xe" and it fail at the first time
so i tried again and it sucsess
and now my qtek work again
i am verey happy
thanks for your help

homw come no proble
my jamin stopped in bootloader i can not install any rom
original or cooked all going to end and after restart of phone again bootloader so i need help

uve bricked ur phone im afraid, nothing that can be done to bring it back!

if all is hopeless and your device is a G3, try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319636
(just part with spl first)
this worked for me, but as i sure learned from flashing ipl/spl 3.08 (before flashing ipl 3.08 of wizard and totally bricking my g3 prophet ), this is no guarantee for others

i tried the post but the same problem i am in bootloader as before
any new idea

help stuck in bootloader

right i have the g3 model with a german rom on so i wanted to upgrade i'll tell u what i did, 1st off i put fone into bootlader mode then run the rru for the hardspl, that said it had done so then i did the exact same thing to put the shadow 1.0 rom on and when it completed it wont come out of bootloader mode.... any help????

oh also dont know if this helps when i was flashing it didnt come up with any info in the rom version for my phone?
IPL 2.09
SPL 2.09 0000
GSM 02.07.20

UPDATE*** just run the hardspl on the bootlader screen and now when it boots i get the qtek splash screen? but nothing else

Ok. i had the same problem.. SO wot i did was to redo all the steps of flashing a rom. I did the hardspl all new... and then flashed a radio rom... nd then wm6.1 ro m of my choice it worked
