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,

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.

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

OK lets start at the basics...... In bootloader mode (tricolour screen) what text does it say at top of the screen?
Have you DEFINITELY Sim Unlocked and CID unlocked?
it says these things
kais130 mfg
spl-10.0.Olipof
cpld-8
Ok that confirms you have the capability to flash. I have seen in the past some people have managed to flash one time only using jumpspl but then their device reverts back to original bootloader...I was one of those people
Next question then...Can you boot the phone normally and gain an activsync connection to it?
yes
i can use my phone normally
only i cannot put a new image in
Are you using Xp or vista? If using vista it may be worth trying a reboot... sometimes it goes doolally with its usb ports. If you cannot see the phone through WMDC or activsync after a reboot it is worth going to SYSTEM (on your PC) viewing non present devices through device manager,( Drop to Command prompt and type... Devmgmt.msc set DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1 ) removing the relevant phone connection and then re attaching it so that windows re detects it.
If you can get a connection via actvisync (win XP) or WMDC (vista) to your phone then all should be ok. Uncheck the activesync/ WMDC "allow USB connections" and try again.
If this still doesn't work then search around here for MTTY. That will allow you to specify the usb connection to the device...amongst other things.
thank you for your time
i have win xp and activesync works nice
the problem is when bootloader starts
When you attempt flashing, do you do it from the device already booted into windows mobile or direct from bootloader?
Which ever way you have tried it, try ther other way.
Not teaching you to suck eggs but just in case you dont know.... To get direct to bootloader hold camera button and soft reset with stylus whilst holding camera button down and the tri colour screen should appear.
With device at the bootloader screen, Can you confirm that you hear the windows "noise" when you unplug and re plug the USB cable just as you would when plugging and unplugging the device normally. This will determine if the device has connection at the bootlaoder stage.
why not just flash using the microsd card. its much easier that way
yes it has connection
the thing is that i have already flashed as i told before with dutty's v4
now i can't
Usually Error 260's are related to the USB port functionality ( Port can't be opened etc).
The SD card method or MTTY should sort you out.
thx again
hope it works
at least the sd trick worked!!!!
now running on winmob 6.1
Glad to hear you sorted it.
almost
i cannot use my sd card cause i have to have it formated in order to put a new rom in

disable USB connections in ActiveSync and flash.
This Link gives a list of eror codes for Hermes, and probably the same for Kaiser.
It's likely that you have a USB port error - maybe try changing the USB port you use or a different sync cable - or just stick to SD card flashing in the future - I keep an old 1gig card for this.
this IS the problem...i cannot flash...
it stays in the bootloader with the message i wrote

OHHH lord dutty we need your new rom
Hello all. I have followed the instructions to get wm6 and got stuck on step 9 of Karhoe's guide. Activesync will no longer see my device. so i cannot move forward. my phone is stuck on bootloader screen. After 'resetting device' in terapro. i saw the splash screen on my device then it went immediately to the bootloader color bars. everything else showed exactly what was on Karhoe pics. i just need activesync to see my device so i can proceed. any suggestions please. Thank you very much.
Activesyn will not see your device as it has been wiped clean of windows. Since you will need to be in booloader screen to install wm6, it doesn't matter if your activesyn sees your phone or not.
I ran into the same issue, i had to actually disable the 'allow usb...' option in activesyn so the romupdater utility can see the phone. So try it both ways.
enable it as suggested and just run the next step of installing the wm6gsmupdate...if you get some message saying connection error, then disable it and try again.
no activesync. Error [264]: Connection
thanks for the reply flashhsalf. it has not worked out for me tho. i tried both ways several times. enable/disable usb. i get same ERROR [264]: Connection.
im going to try it with a different laptop.thanks again.
Once I have this error too. Just reboot my PC and format BINFS one more time and all became fine. Don't know that is the reason, but this trick was helpfull
Have You re-enabled "Allow USB connection" @ connection options in Your Activesync??
got it to work...!!!
thanks all. i tried what was suggested all day...then when i went home i tried again with no success. to the point where my battery just died. i thought it was a paper weight at that point. but i decided to plug into the charger and the bootloader came up again. this time without the USB indication in the lower left corner. after a 2hr charge i took it to the same laptop which i rebooted. enabled usb then it worked! strange but glad i got it to work. Thanks again folks!
i updated to 6.1 but im experiencing issues with internet. ERROR
the remote party has ended this connection. this is the case with MMS as well. anyone experience this?

Xdabe if you actualise Radio ROM, before upgrading to WM6.1 you wouldn't notice that problem with an Internet.
Try upgrading Radio ROM for your device.
Gsmsikar once you are in bootloader, and have SuperCID, just start installing Radio ROM first, then OS.
Hi...
I was trying to Upgrade my O2 XDA Exec Rom with Windows Mobile 6.5 by explode. The process went successfully till 99% and after that it ended up with Error. Then I unplugged my pda from the pc and tried to restart the device. I was surprised that the device did not respond to any of the following
Soft Reset
Hard Rest
Boot Loader mode Start (Bulb + Power + Reset)
It is totally blank screen whatever you do.
When I connected the device to the pc with usb cable, a Red Light is shown for 2 seconds and then goes off and a message comes up on the pc that "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED".
Then I tried to Remove battery from the device for a whole night and the next day morning i did all the above procedures again to get no results.
Kindly Help me out
Thanks

I think you have been bricked your device...

If you cannot get into bootloader and you have done the steps above, then you cannot flash to another rom.......it would seem you now have a paperweight im afraid
I am still not able to revive my device. I know that it is just due to corrupt bootloader but don't know how to repair it.
If anybody ever has solution for this... kindly let me know.

Have you tested mtty?
I would recommend to PM a chef on Universal forum
Good luck,
Mtty is not detecting my device
it says can't open usb port
One More thing I have noted is that when I keep the device connected with the pc, at a certain interval of about 10-15 mintues my device's Led shows RED Light for few seconds and then turns off followed by the the "USB device not recognized" on my pc.
I hope this can be used as a hint towards reviving my device.
Regards
have you followed orbs advise above and pm a chef on that section, they maybe able to help. From my knowledge (limited on that device) i ddont think there is any recovery proceedure that you have not tried. Have u downloaded offical wm5 rom and tried it. I know and appreciate that it will probably not work due to corrupt bootloader, but what else is there to do??
To understand more, what did you do PRIOR to trying to flash to 6.5.
Did you hardspl correctly? Had you already flashed to another rom and just felt like flashing to another new rom?? Give us more detail.
Thanks for your reply
I dont know how to PM Chef.
I had used 3 other Rom versions of WM6.1 on my device. They ran very much fine on my device. But When i found WM6.5 xplode, I wished to try that too. But the rom update procedure went successfully till 99% and after that it showed an error that upgrade was not successfull. I pulled out the device and tried to restart if by all methods but I wasnt able to power on at all.
Thanks
Regards
ok, goto the thread that you got the rom off, click the chefs name and you will get a menu there to send pm, do it, he might have seen a similar problem or know how to correct bootloader.
good luck
noup really no...
Is bricked
my bro has bricked an Universal and the same led turns red no power off no bootloar no power it means the flash chip is dead!
Sorry to heard that.
He waits too long for the upgrade it tooks at least 40 minutes
then ERROR... but you know... the batt was died in middle process ( th batt was ****ed up, it say full charged but no! it was on 60 or 50%) then the stupid thing is make a hardreset.. i told him dont hR your device... justa simple reste and reinit the process... and huh! its bricked.
if you are interested on sell your parts
maybe my bro want some parts.
my advice(similar to other people):
1. Charge your batery somehow (in other device or anything else)
2. put your devce in bootloader mode and connect it to pc - it wll be detected like microsoft usb sync
3. use mtty try difrend versions becuse sometimes 1.42 does not detect it properly - read here for what to do with mtty
IMO this may be battery problem or nand chip problem - in both cases it is hardware fail
My Dear Samaritans,
IMPORTANT:
- My SD/Memory card is removed

I was upgrading to Tomal v8.9 on a vista 64 system via a virtual machine XP SP2. Update failed and I got stuck in bootloader.
Tried reflashing but got an error and the flash failed... also the program crashed during recovery.
Tried using v8.71 still crashed without any luck.
Moved to a pure XP SP3 desktop...
When I connect the device to the computer(s) "Serial" changes to "USB" but XP sees it as an unrecognized device.
Tried flashing again but same error as on the virtual machine.
Tried mtty (1.16 & 1.42) but neither give me the option of USB, only COM1 and COM2. And had already de-activated the USB connection in Activesync.
Have read through the forum but have had no luck. Everyone's issue is resolved as soon as they remove their SD or SIM, but I have neither and am also using XP with activesync's USB disabled.
Tried UNI_ExitBootloader but that does not find/recognise the device either.
If it helps -- My device is/was an O2 XDA Exec (Stock) which I had previously flashed with Tomal's v8.5
I am ready to try anything, please help!
P.S: The error is Error 112
Did you install ActiveSync on xp pc?
If not, do it now and try again.
I had similar problem. Had corrupted DOC sector
and MTTY was the only solution, but although the Serial changed to USB, I got 'unrecognised' message and Mtty didn't give USB as an option. At some point it occured to me that it was my computer's USB port, for some reason the device was recognised by 1 in 4 ports only, So I just tried my USB cable in different ports until the 'device unrecognised' messaged stopped appearing. Finally, after I was ready to cry in frustration, it just worked. Don't give up.
I heard it mentioned somewhere that the device that went through Mtty will be recognised only by the port used in Mtty procedure.
That... or your device's USB is no longer properly attached to the mainboard.

Thank you for the ray of hope! Will keep trying every hourly reboot in every USB port (4 in all).
Weird thing is I never had to go through mtty before so this is my first need for it.
Got the physical connection checked and it is supposedly OK...
Thank you for the prompt help...
Don't worry
I had exactly the same problem. First I tried this and it worked but still no connection via mtty. On that evening I disconnected and connected a lot and I removed the battery for a long time (one night). Later I could connect but I don't know why. Maybe these two things were the solution. Mtty showed "usb>" and I've done a DOC format...
If nothing works I would create a rom-image (on sunday or monday) for your sd-card like it's written in the service manual.

No need for hourly reboots, just get into Bootloader, connect USB to your device and try different ports on computer with a few seconds in between to ensure no 'unrecognised device' message popping up. Once you'll get a connection - go for Mtty facility, the USB is the last on the list of ports.

I created succesfully a pre-loaded sd card, flashing via this sd works. But I can't copy the files. When I want to open the drive it says, that I have to format the sd card. Is there a special tool to copy the files? Or you find someone near you with a universal.

Tried the SD image method with a 128MB SD but didn't work. Maybe because I have a G4 and the method is for G3
managed to get a connection finally and ran MTTY, after "task28 55a" it just hung for a long time so I disconnected.
Tried running UNI_ExitBootloader.exe and now can get in and out of Bootloader but still cannot flash or connect...
Any suggestions welcome...
Try this....
This might sound silly but it's worked for me in the past.
1. Go into bootloader (without mem card or sim)
2. Plug-in the USB cable
3. Hold the buttons to go into bootloader again whilst plugged in.
4. DOC Format
5. Flash ROM
My Universal had loads of problems but that is how i fixed it, tried everything else like you, when i first plugged it in on the bootloader nothing happened until i pressed and held the buttons whilst it was plugged in, then windows made the usb connected sound so i quickly mtty'd! lol
Hope this helps, Good luck!!!

Tried mtty (1.16 & 1.42) but neither give me the option of USB, only COM1 and COM2. And had already de-activated the USB connection in Activesync.
Have read through the forum but have had no luck.
I am ready to try anything, please help!
P.S: The error is Error 112

Goos luck,
Can you Help?
I have an XDA II was on O2 uk network. I used to flash it all the time and knew my way around. however recently i flashed it in vista without thinking.. and as i upgraded the rom from wm2003 to wm2003se about 25% of the way through vista disconnected the device then it was unrecognised usb.. then vista started installing new drivers that recognised the device... however this then crashed flashing the rom onto the pda..
It wont soft or hard reset, i took the battery out for 24 hours and tried again and nothing.. the only thing on screen is that it says serial on the top of the screen (which changes to usb when connected but get error 101 when trying to reflash/ no activesync connection and am confused my mtty as when it does connect i cant type into the text area only paste)
on the bottom of the screen is v1.06 (which before the flash crash was V1.0 something lower than v1.06)
basicaly is the device recoverable as long as i have this serial / usb recognition by the device????? (using mtty i cant connect through ports or usb but thats because i dont seem to understand how to use it)
the other question is is there any other way to get a rom back onto the device without mtty or activesynch..
I pray that ysomeone will respond .. i miss my pda dearly
a thousand thanks in advance
