NO WM6 release working on my Qtek S200, Aserg WM5 3.13 works fine

I think I have always followed the steps right, but still no succes in booting into WM6. After the hardreset it always stops on the splash screen showing the versions.
I have tried all the versions found here at xda-developers.
It is strange but when I try the ASERG 3.3.13 ROM everything is OK. I am able to boot correctly.
What could be wrong? Is it something with the SPL?
Is there a possibility to debug the boot process?
I have following versions:
IPL 2.09
SPL 2.20.0000
GSM 2.47.21
The device is CID unlocked.
Thanks for every advice.

PiGeonCZ,
Try this:
When doing flashes, usb connect using Active Sync v.4.5, connect as "guest" to sync. Windows XP only. Reboot computer once before starting.
First, very important, flash to the last official wm5 vendor rom of choice. The last I-mate, HTC/QTEK rom is fine. If you're CID unlocked & SIM unlocked, you can use any rom.
For upgrade step 1, download & use this temp rom (PDAviet Temp) to get to first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308266
Remember, use no other NVID rom out there for this step 1.
Upgrade Step 2: Use this rom for wm6 upgrade: Trueneytral 1.4 with MS Bluetooth stack

If this doesn't work, please let me know.

Hi DevilDuck, thanks for the reply, but no luck again.
This time with device of another my friend, also CID ulnlocked and with the same versions of IPL and SPL.
I am using WinXPSP2 ActiveSync 4.5.0
I did it in following order.
1. update RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship.exe - succesfull
2. tab to see the align screen
3. update Prophet_PDAViet_Step1 - succesfull
4. tab to see the align screen
5. write Prophet_WM6_17913_TrueNeytral_1_4MS - succesfull
6. hardreset
7. stuck on the second splash screen again
So I have tried to write the AKU3.3.13.ASERG-us on this device too and yes it booted succesfully.
I think I have tried all possible combinations and ROMS already, but no luck with WM6.
Any idea?
thanks

Thanks you very mutch.

First, you must recover the device. see here
Then:
You can update the ROM.
You must first, SIM unlock the device. here
Then you must HardSPL your device here
Then, you can choose which ROM to use. See here

i dont undersatnd
please the prophet with activ synchro cant connect
please more explications

1.Determine do you have G3 or G4 (when softreset G3 shows on screen: SPL .000 or .0000 and G4 .001 or .0001 - YOUR IS G4
2. Download and install ActiveSync 4.5 (Microsoft web page)
3. Download ROM (my suggestion PVTemp) and unzip somewhere on desktop
4. If your device is locked unlock it using lokiwiz
5. Connect device to PC ( running WIN XP suggested) and sign as a GUEST
6. Disconnect and go to bootloader mode -pres COMM button and after that soft reset with pen, relise pen in few seconds and your screen should show RGB colors. DEVICE BATTERY MUST BE ABOVE 50%!
7. Connect your PDA on PC (it will show USB on screen, down left)
8. Go to directorx and run ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe (if its G4) or ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G3.exe (if its G3)
9. Follow instrucions on PC screen
10. After some time (10min) PDA should finish and do a restart-it usualy stuck on 0% and 85%, but dont panic and wait, it sould continue!!
11. Enjoy new ROM!
you can start with bootloader mode!

thank youi very mutch

White screen after hardspl

Hi ,
I've try to upgrade my O2 xda, I've read IPL and SPL .0001, then i think is a G4, I've connect to PC, launch hardspl.bat from update_package and then the smartphone restart, but the screen remain white, activesync 4.5 not recognized it.
Please help me!

I've also try to use the alternate hardspl file of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547&highlight=white+screen+hardspl but nothing.
white screen after launch jumpspl and must soft reset to continue.
I've a Dutch O2 XDA with SPL 2.15.0001.
Is possible to have lock CID or similar?
Someone can help me?
Can I make some hardreset or similar?
Thanks in advance!

G4 devices cannot be CID unlocked although the HardSPL circumvents the CID procedure.
The white screen is what happens after you hard SPL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547
You can hard reset although you will loose all your data. To hard reset, hold the camera button, the comm manager button and soft reset. Then follow the message on screen.

Thanks!
If I've a CID locked G4 I can't upgrade?
I've read the guide but I've not found a reply to my question. I've also try the alternate hardspl utility.

You can upgrade a G4 without CID unlocking (I have a g4 and WM6.1) You should be able to upgrade after SIM unlocking your device and HardSPLing your device. Try flashing a ROM when the device is connected but with the white screen and see if anything works on the PC.

When smartphone is white screen activesync not recognize any.
How I can verify if there is CID lock?

If it is a G4, there will be a CID lock unless it's an unbranded (HTC) device.
The CID lock will not affect the flashing procedure.
Ignore the fact that activesync doesn't recognise it and see if an RUU will recognise the device.

I've try now with cofferom, when screen white the RUU not phone, connection error (264).

When your device starts up, what is the IPL and SPL displayed?

ipl and spl 2.15.0001

I explain my step:
First launch the file "Update_Package\Update_Package\HardSPL\HardSPL G4\hardspl.bat" this file launch in smartphone the file jump.exe then I click on Yes on smartphone and the white screen appears, after this on PC appears a RUU, I close this and lauch the file: CoffieITA\Flash tools\ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe but this not recognize the smartphone.
I wrong any? the first RUU after hardspl.bat what is this?

HardSPL has not succeded. Try softSPL rather than hardSPL and see if the RUU will connect.

I've undestand where I wrong, now I've completed the operation and I've SPL: 2.G4.4PDA is ok?

Yes. Now try and flash a ROM.

WORKING!
Now it is in italian!
Thanks a lot! Thanks!

No problem!

Help !!!

HI....
for a while I had flashed the German Rom WM 6 to my wizard.
It works and Im happy with it .
But now after a complete power up it starts after a short loading (windows) directly with the password inquiry on the screen. That normaly is displayed after the screen callibration.
And I can´t type in the password and when the wizard says it is wrong.
So I tryed to flash a new image, no chance !!!
The ruu says That is not the right version or error 300 no conection when I start with the boot screen after power up and camera button.
The IPL is 2.21.0001 and
the SPL is 2.G4.4PDA
Maybe there is some help outside here
Thank you

First you identify your wizard
you have a G4 wizard and I believe that u r trying to flash with a G3 rom thats one error i can see.
second most important thing is try to hard reset your device first to come back on the normal situation and then again go through with step by step for CID unlock. which you need to flash your rom then go through with this link which you can find on Wiki also.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
then try once again
hope this solve your wizard probem

I tried to flash the old g4 rom that i have since 5 month

Treo 750 WM 6.1 upgrade help!!!

Hi all im new to these forums and the treo 750. I've been reading all about upgrading the treo to the cooked 6.1 roms and radio updates. I've never done this and have NO idea how to do it...I keep reading about flashing the ROM from the miniSD and different things...But is there a step by step instruction on how to do any of this stuff???

has someone helped you?

a guide
Here is a guide, from my experience and from XDA forum :
1. Download the rom file and the radio file:
Rom file from here : http://rapidshare.com/files/89355384/Treo750_WM6.1_WWE_Lite.rar
(It is the lite version but I recommend the normal version.)
The radio file from here :
http://rapidshare.com/files/89336971/Treo750Radio1.54.07.00.rar
2. Download the Hard-SPL from here :
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Cheetah/Unlocker/CheetahUnlocker.rar
3. Format mini SD card 32 FAT , using a card reader or other way.
4. Do a HARD-SPL with the CheetahUnlocker file ( step 2) . Connect the Treo with your computer using Active sync and run the file. Use those steps:
- Click the Step 1.... wait the progress bar reach 100%
- Now watch the Screen on your PDA it will launch 2 times verification...
- just click YES ...wait.. and YES again.
- after finisih... wait until the activesync go green again.....
- Now click the Step 2... wait the progress bar reach 100%
- Watch the screen again... same thing.. it will launch 2 times verification.
- click YES ...wait.. and YES again.
- After finish it your PC screen will shows some popup. ignore the reading bla bla bla... about ask u to click ok.
- Just wait untill your activesync go green again.
- Now click that bloody Popup OK button.
- The unlocker app will shows up again..
- Then you will see errors saying.. continue, cancel...etc... bla bla... just click continue.. error message.. iqnore it and then just finish it.
- Now your Cheetah should be on HARD SPL mode.
5. Install the ROM :
a. Using Winrar get the file from step 1. It's name should be : CHEEIMG.nbh
b. Copy the file to the root of the mini SD .
c. Do BOOTLOADER:
1. turn phone on
2. press the MEDIA button AND at the same time with the stylus the RESET PIN
the MEDIA button is the 3rd button on the left side of the phone, under the volume button
the RESET PIN is under the MINI SD card cover
3. keep holding the MEDIA button (left side of phone) until you get the 3 color screen
Wait until it finishes. Then Hard reset the device when prompted. To hard-reset, hold the End key while pressing the pin reset button. Answer “yes” to “Erase all data” prompt.
6. Flash the radio at the same way – just copy the radio file to the mini Sd – it should be the same name. (CHEEIMG.nbh ) .
And that it all !!
Do not restore from your backup (You can restore only your data files).
As I said I recommend the normal 6.1 version and not the lite one - I tried both.
one more thing - maybe before doing the upgrade to 6.1 - try to upgrade to 6.0 version from Palm , and only then upgrade to 6.1 version .

Hi Libal:
I just read your great step-by-step Windows Upgrade instructions! Very nice!
I've also gone round and round trying to figure out the exact way to unlocking my Treo 750. It is Cingular USA branded, and currently has Windows 5 on it.
Do you know of a similar step-by-step guide to unlocking my Treo 750?
I bought my 750 about two weeks ago, and I've been trying to unlock it since!
Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure but I think that it should be the same way
but maybe first upgrade to official 6.0 . ( because of the .net support) .
There are other ways to unlock the phone- look in the forum.

[but maybe first upgrade to official 6.0 . ( because of the .net support) .]
Do I have to upgrade Windows to unlock the phone? Which is the "official" upgrade?
[There are other ways to unlock the phone- look in the forum. ]
That's the problem! I've read through the forum over and over, and I'm confused as to what to do!

the steps mentioned above is the unlocker process. have you tried the unlocker yet. what does it do? are you getting stuck somewhere doing the process. ive been there all cofused too. need to know more info in order to try and help.

Hi nuwayman:
I have not yet tried the unlock, because I'm so confused! I thought the procedure in this thread was to upgrade Windows, not unlock?
Isn't the Hard-SPL the unlock process?
This is why I haven't started! Every time I think I know enough to begin, I find something more confusing!
For example, the post above is very specific, and easy to understand. Until the end, when he says this:
...maybe before doing the upgrade to 6.1 - try to upgrade to 6.0 version from Palm , and only then upgrade to 6.1 version...
So, what's the correct way? Go straight to 6.1, or do 6.0 first?
Other threads seem to say that 6.1 is a problem, and that 6.0 is better. So, which is it!
Anyway, I need to unlock, so where do I start?

i would start with upgrading to wm6.0. you shouldnt have to do unlocker process to upgrade stock rom.start there first.

I just upgraded my Treo750
With Regard to upgrading from Palm, I doubt you will find the upgrade anymore on the Palm website, I couldn't when I looked today. You may have to search the Forums for a 6.0 version or go directly to 6.1.
You will run into a problem with the upgrade process if you don't use a good Bootloader upgrader/unlocker. I tried five (5), the only one that worked was "Cheetah Unlocker" this first upgrades your Bootloader to HardSPL. That is critical to be able to update to WM6.1, (even from WM6.0). This upgrades the Bootloader (Step 1) as well as Unlocking the SIM (if neccesary) in step 2 and the Radio (if neccesary) in step 3. You can cancel out of the Program after Step 1 if you don't want to unlock your phone.
By the way, why not unlock it? Are you still under contract with your phone? Do you plan on returning the phone? If not, unlock it, it won't affect your phones capabilities.
The Cheetah Unlocker is here

There are several wm6.1 ROM's
Here is a good one (worked awesome for me)

Here is a "Lite" version.

I couldn't get my 750 to upgrade this way. The unlocking worked fine, but the updating part never worked.
Why do you suggest doing it this way? Why not use an RUU? I have a Elfin as well and just copied the RUU files into a folder with my nbh file and it worked flawlessly. much easier then the way suggested here and works everytime.

is that a yes?

just did my treo 750 ...and it looks very much the same ...except for a few new progs..i thought the text would be different as well as the gui...am i missin something ?

Hi everyone,
I have a big problem and need urgent help please. I have ATT 750 unlocked and I'm outside the States now. My Treo was 6.0 then I upgrade it to 6.1 so far so good. Then I saw a custom rom that I thought it was interesting. the custom rom was for HTC Dimond I think. without paying too much attention. I started the upgrade. It went 70% before the upgrade crashed.
Now my Treo is not responding to anything. I have the original ATT 6.0 SD upgrade and I have the 6.1 lite upgrade. I'm using CheetahUnlocker to flash the SPL (that is working) but when I try to install the 6.0 or 6.1 using Kaiser Custom RUU v1 it crash.
Any suggestion please? need more info? then let me know
Thanks in advance
Sam

A question concerning the CheetahUnlocker. When trying to follow the steps indicated, the following happens:
Step 1: the progress bar never moves, the phone goes to the 4 colored bar screen and sits; activesync indicates it has lost the connection; stays like this unti I soft reset. One the phone is back up the unlocker indicates the "DEVICE IS NOW PATCHED TO HARD-SPL"
Step 2: same as step one except following the soft reset the application indicates"==Radio Patched! Now Unlocking!==" but nothing actually seems to happen aside from getting an Unhandled exception error. Continuing past this error and nothing happens. .NET Framework 2.0 is currently installed (as are 3.0 and 3.5).
For both steps, when the application indicates the current information about the phone there is no Image Version listed. Neither of the steps shows any progress bar on the phone..just straight to what I think is the bootloader screen.
Anyone know what I am doing incorrectly?
*****EDIT*****
Please disregard at this point. I found that the bootloader was trying to read off of an older cheeimg file on the memory card instead of pulling from the host PC via USB. Removing the card seems to have done the trick.

This has become more of a problem than I though. Step 1 completes successfully but when it comes time to unlock the phone (after the first part of step 2) ActiveSync will not connect. Clicking ok results in the early mentioned unhandled exception error stating that a file cannot be found.
Additionally, I can no longer connect the phone using activesync.
Any ideas out there?

Another update: I have managed to get ActiveSync working again by removing it and reinstalling the application. However, I am still unable to get past step 2 of the unlocker. Again, the first part of step 2 completes (the radio replacement) but when I click OK to begin the second part (the unlock itself; instructions provided: click OK to begin and watch your phone's screen) I get the unhandled exception error reporting a missing file.
The instructions provided at the beginning of this thread indicate this error can be ignored and I should just click continue. I do this and nothing seems to happen. My computer sits with the CheetahUnlocker utility open and displaying "==Radio Patched! Now Unlocking!==" but nothing is sent to my phone. I have an activesync session going but nothing seems to be happening. Am I just not waiting long enough?
Please..can anyone help with this? At the very least can anyone tell me how to get the original radio installed as the unlocker indicates that without the proper radio it may not function well; and it doesn't.
Getting desperate here. Thanks in advance.

Never mind, everyone. This is no longer a concern. Took the easy way out and just bought a Fuze.

so my phone is already unlocked(dont know how, bought it from craigslist that way)...do i need to do this cheetahunlocker even though phone is already unlocked?
active sync is not working at all..i have tried for 2 days now and no sucess...
ok so i have cheeimg.ngh file on mini sd card and in phone, hit reset while holding media button(3rd one on left side)...it goe sto red, green, blue, white screen and says
Pal Tr IPL-0.20
Pal Tr SPL-0.21.0000
and it isnt doing anything else, any ideas?
