Upload a Old ROM

Can someone upload an old ROM for the prophet? I can't start up my prophet, but I've got it in bootloader. So I nedd a little bit old ROM so I can install on it.
Understand?
Thanks!

Look for the first link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1166927&postcount=2

Are this ROM old ROM?

Not really old but if your phone stuck in bootloader this one is ok

I can't make it, it says that i should connect to Active Sync, and how im I suppose to do that?

Go in bootloader (screen with 3 coulours) by Hold down the camera button and reset the device. (Boot Loader Mode is: Press Camara + Soft Reset, then release soft reset and keep pressing camara button till appear the Boot Loader.)
When you are in bootloader logicaly your PC must detect the Prophet, then run the update
Sorry for my bad English but I'm Franch

Yes i've got it in bootloader, and its stands USB on the PPC screen. But it aint the Active Sync that finds it, it says "Uknoknown Unit" or something when i connect them together..

Active Sync isn't a problem, update work or there is an error message?

In right corner down on the PC sreen it comes up "A unkknown Device connected" or something like that, nothing more is happening..??

It sayd that it can't recognize the unit..

In bootloader mode, on connecting via usb ,if u r getting 'USB' written on left down corner of ppc then ur ppc can be flashed via proper RUU and nk.nbf
Be sure that this nk.nbf dont include ipl/spl parts for risk free flashing and for not getting brick device.
thanx

Im trying to flash a ROM with that, but it coming up on the screen that "Not connected". It's standing that i nedd to connect with Active SYnc!!

could somebody upload an ipl/spl lower than 2.09 or higher but not 2.09^^
rest doesn't matter language english or german would be good...

Cant Flash my Vox! Plz Help

Hi All,
Out of the blue my HTC Vox stopped booting. I mean, it would load to the windows mobile screen and then stay there till eternity. Removing my memory card and SIM also did not help! I then tried the hard reset option.
Even after hard reset it sometimes boots(1 out of 15 times) and when it does...it hangs after 10 to 12 minutes. Still have not put my sim n memory card into the phone.
I tries flashing the ROM using the ARA 1.27 ROM. After it rebooted to the bootloader, the flash utility gave a connection error! It did not connect to ActiveSync and stayed at the bootloader screen.
I still do not know how to flash it successfully.
If anybody can help me out, I'll be extremely grateful!
Thanks
Prateek

take the battery out, put it back.
connect your Vox (USB).
Hold the camera button and turn on your Vox.
you should see a red, blue and green screen (if my memory works as it should) and the computer should recognize the device, though you won't be able to explore it with activesync.
Run the SDA_ApplicationUnlock thingy (if you need to)
now try flashing the device.
If it flashes but after 3% restart, you need to do a CID unlock right before flashing.
hope that helps.

Invalid Vendor ID
Hi MoRkusReX,
Its giving me Invalid Vendor ID. How do I CID unlock it?
Thanks,
Prateek

first post , download the last file:
Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip
There a Readme file in there, you should read it.
post back where you're done.

No Luck!
Hi MoRkusReX,
Since my phone is not booting into the OS thus I cannot use the UPSL_CID provided in the link.
Only once I have been able to boot into my OS and followed the instructions given in the link. The phone comes to the Linux black screen and then switchers off. Then the ROM Update Utility with which i'm trying to update the ROM gives an error that "cannot connect to the phone".
So, now I need to flash my ROM from the bootloader itself. Have managed to get mtty and connect to the phone. But even trying ResetDevice command, the phone does not boot.
Can you tell me the exact steps to flash a new ROM from the bootloader itself including CID unlocking? Can it be done??
Thanks,
Prateek

yes it can be done.
you don't need to boot to OS, I couldn't either. after the steps from my first post here, run the uspl_116_jockyw.bat file. follow instructions.
that will unlock the CID.
Now the VOXs' screen should be white or so... then you run the ROM update thingy.

Hi..
I connected with the usb and got the bootloader screen.
tried running the SDA unlock program...the button to unlock the phone is grayed out. Cant click on it.
Next tried running uspl_116_jockyw.bat file
..cannot connect to phone and hence copy of haret.exe did not occur and neither did pmemtest run successfully...
What am I doing wrong??

ok..
first steps again..
battery out, back in.
connect USB
CAMERA button + Turn on.
now.. does windows do that USB sound? you know.. "tu du" ?

No sound....using win 2k Nt server edition...
but has detected my phone once on that USB and then allows me to talk to the phone using mtty....as in commands like ResetDevice work on the phone using mtty..
also, cannot get into bootlaoder mode with USB plugged in...

Steps and their results:
Disabled USB connections in activesync
Booted to the bootloader (red and green and Blue screen)
Connected the USB
"USB" displays on the left hand side corner
Now tried unlocking using Apllication unlock...grayed out button...
Tried running USPL bat but stops and says phone not connected when copying haret.exe
Using windows NT server 2003

if the SDA Application unlock button is grayed, of course the USPL won't work.
why "Disabled USB connections in activesync"?
And.. I doubt this is the problem but you should check on an winXP pc, I did it on XP.

No Luck!
Tried the same with USB enabled...same result

basically the thing we need to figure out is why your computer doesn't recognize the device.
the rest is obvious.
when I go to bootloader on my device windows pops up with a message says windows found device "and it's ready to use". like when you cannot every other USB item.
have you tried doing that on an XP system?

Going to do that now....lets hope it works....
Does ur activesync turn green when u connect at bootloader?
Also, I have removed my sim and memory card...thats okay right?

yeah, I removed both of them.
and no, activesync didn't turn green, but Windows recognized the device when I turned it on. turn on the speakers and wait for that winxp "USB connected" sound.

Still No Luck!
Tried doing the same on win xp...
no luck...
it connects to win xp ans says new device found...and ur USB device is now
ready to use...
after that i try application unlock it still gives me grayed out button....
ne suggestions???

Finally....
Finally got it done...
Thanks for all the help....
I managed to cold boot into the system for one time ans then SDA unlocked it and then ran UPSL .... it ran and then balnked out...
then i disconnected the usb before the ROM update utility and unchecked the USB option in active sync...
then i flashed it with the ARA rom...
Seems to be working okay now..will test for a day and see...
thanks a lot

I'm not sure this step was necessary but as long as it worked.. good times.
btw, how did you boot into the system?

kept trying hard reset and repeated booting...( it was booting 1 in 15 times type...)..and one lucky time it didnt hang..so used that window to slip in the SDA unlock and USPL..
thanks ...

you're welcome.

wizard g3 stuck in bootloader screen

hello everyone. i just bought a g3 wich remains stuck in the ipl/spl screen. i tried VIPPIE 's tutorial (many thanks man for ur work) and flash button rom 1.05 to revive the phone. it flashed without any error , but same result. phone doesnt pass the ipl/spl screen. next i tried to flash Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102, flashed ok but nothing happend. i m just stuck on the ipl/spl screen. the phone isnt bricked but i can not start it to do a soft spl and flash it. any ideas ?
because it s an o2 xda mini s , i thought an original o2 rom would do the trick (start the phone) but i couldnt find an original rom (tried the xda dev ftp page and the o2 one).
many thanks

hehh
same happend to me once. Go online and finde botton run , update utility 2.00.1
go step by step:
Disconnect your phone from the usb cable,disable any Firewall and Anti virus and reboot your Pc.
1. Make sure your phone is not Connected to the PC and remove the dummy card or SD/MMC card
2. On your Desktop PC, open Microsoft ActiveSync, then go to File >Connection Settings >Remove the Selection from “Allow USB Connection with this desktop computer”
3. Reconnect your phone to the Desktop PC using the USB Cradle and the Charger MUST be Connected to the Cradle (Don’t Bluetooth for the Upgrade)
4. When you see usb appear at the bottom of bootloader screen
5. Run the Upgrade again and it will work fine without any problems.
While upgrading, the ActiveSync program will not go on, however the upgrade is running.
After then, install origial ROM. (u can try T-Mobile MDA Software Version (2.26.10.2) )
Let me know if it's working

I have a problem with my uni after an upgrade from Vnit.....!!

i am really stuck here after i upgraded my o2 xda exec to ur rom. it took too much battery and took me ages to charge it. however, this is never the issue. what happened was that my phone went off battery and couldnt make it charge or even connected to the pc.
it actually charges when i plug but without the orange light which indecates that it is charging.
Plus whenever i try to connect it to pc it says uknown device. even when i switch to bootloader mode it still says unknown device. therfore i cant flash a new rom. the battery is new and the device is O2 Xda exec but is also as new.
pls pls anyone, sort me out.

Welcome to the forum
I would recommend to follow this instructions on the Wiki: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader_Serial
Charge your battery at 100%
And don´t forget to vote!
Good luck,

I had similar experience with this ROM even after installing everything successful, and good use of ROM for about 7-10 days, not sure why and thought am the only one experienced this. The phone simply went off (i remember using it the previous day night to check mails). No display, it wont indicate wehther it charging, hard reset or softreset does not do anything etc etc
I have put the Uni in Bootloader mode, did a DOC format and flashed the ROM again, it worked and working so far.
Remove SIM and SD Card from Uni and it should recognise the Uni when connected to PC. Its better to use a XP machine as Vista need a separate proces which you can find in this forum by searching.
Please Read wiki and proceed as appropriate to your device condition. The detail on how to do DOC format is in there in wiki
All the best

hi
1.) first you need to download mtty utility, here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=9864
2.) on PC go to activesync and uncheck "allow USB connections"
3.) Then go into bootloader mode (light button+power button and soft reset)
4.) On PC open mtty utility / software.
5.) On PC select USB from the "port" drop-down on the upper left corner of the dialog box and hit OK.
6.) On PC you see a blank white screen. Press enter to get "USB>"
7.) On PC type "set 14 0" and hit enter. You will see some gibberish on the mtty utility which will again be suffixed by "USB>"
8.)the type in "task 28 55aa" (try not to copy/paste this because mtty sometimes doesn't recognise it if it is pasted)
9.) you will se WAIT, so wait until it is finished
10.) unplug the usb cable, and re-plug it into the same port
now you are still in bootloader mode, now flash the new ROM, remove the
usb cable and do a hard reset
I hope i could help

Bricked my Cruise

Hello!
I killed my PDA-it. 3 Color does not load mode. With or without the battery I found some 3 types of drivers shown in the picture. Not associated with MTTY, absolutely dead. : (
I'd be happy if you share with me some trick for possible recovery.
Thank you!

How did you brick it??
Do a search for QC diag drivers or MotoQ drivers install them.And download mtty.When the driver is installed check which port the diag driver is installed on and connect mtty to that port,then type cego a the type task 8 (this should reboot it.

press n hold camera & soft reset button. tri colour screen wii appear

Is dead "MTTY" and I want 3 types of drivers. MTTY claim 3 colors mode. Not associated with PDA. I have another PDA operating "Cruise" which is associated with "MTTY" without a problem. Will try with this kind of drivers: "MotoQ drivers" will tell the result.
Thank you!

the hard reset procedure is holding gps and internet button pressed for 2 seconds and without releasing them stick your stylus into the soft reset hole.
keep those two buttons pressed until the grey screen appears then release them and press the green button for confirmation and the green button again after it's done to reboot

Try to remove the battery and cable, wait 1 minute, insert the battery and start the device with pressed camera button.
When the tricolor appears plug in the cable, wait for USB message on your device and flash.

i think if you see the calibration/alignment screen...windows recognizes the phone and usb and you can reflash the rom

You need motorola Q drivers and a Windows XP 32bit to work.

You need use the files of jpg001 to work

the problem is that I do not have hardspl installed yet.
have flashed with original rom but the problem remains.
The main issue is that at boot is stucked at "tap the screen..." and want to make HR to see if helps.
Tried to install Hardspl but always an error and stays at 0%
I am assuming hardware problem with touch screen....
If you can help...
