MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe does not recognize the ROM --- HELP me please

hello ,
i bought an i-mate jam , but the OS version language is in french. At first activesync worked correctly , but now i' m trying to connect the magician even on others pc and other version of activesyc ... but doesn' t work !!
So I red carefully all the threads and post of this forum and download rom and instructions for doing an upgrade to Italian Language Version :
I enter on the bootloader mode, I disactivate activesync , and now when I plug in the USB cable, I see a write USB v.1.02 sO i think the pc recognize the pda , but when I launch MaupgradeUt , does not recognize the i-mate ROM version, I tried many times , even with other pcs , but nothing !!!
BUT I'M NOT USING THE ORIGINAL USB CABLE OF I-MATE , BEACUSE WHEN I BOUGHT IT THEY DID NOT GIVE ME. I' M USING A MINI-USB CABLE OF BLACKBERRY , BUT IN THIS FORUM I RED THAT IS THE SAME ...
I ALSO DOWNLOAD THE LAST GUIDE FOR UPGRADING MAGICIAN ...
Does someone know where is the problem ? When I unplug the usb cable Do I have to hard reset any time after i enter the bootloader ?
Please help me, even becuse with this Rom I cannot use activesync for install programs ....
p.s. : the phone works correctly, the only problem is activesync

About the ROM upgrade - your cable is fine, if the PDA detects the USB connection (ie. shows 'USB' on screen) then the connection is fine. Try running romupdate.exe and getting it to backup your ROM by using the 'd2s' command (its somewhere in my guide... sorry I'm in a hurry so I can't give you the exact location yet). If this suceeds, then you should be clear to attempt an upgrade regardless of whether the update software detects your current ROM version or not - but keep that ROM image on the SD card just in case. The worst thing that will happen is that your ROM will be corrupted (this is rare), but even then it is a rather painless process to restore your original ROM since you have it backed up on your SD card.
About the ActiveSync problem - try soft resetting your Magician. If it still doesn't work, try a hard reset (but back up your data first, of course). ActiveSync can be rather glitchy sometimes.

hello ,
I tried the instructions you gave me on the post ,, i tried doing the backup rom with all the instructions of your PDF guide but :
- the phone gave me USB ver. 1.02 ,
disactivate the activesync ,
run romupdate.exe
- but on the port setting I had only two options COM1 and COM2 , but no way for \\.\WCEUSBSH001
Have I any possibility to change the ROM , maybe with a flash SD CARD method ?
IS IT POSSIBLE TO USE THIS GUIDE http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=235734&highlight=ROM+UPDATE OF THE SD CARD FLASH
WITHOUT DOING A ROM BACKUP ( ROMUPDATE DOES NOT WORK WITH MY PDA -)
- Today I even tried on my brother pc portatile , but here the " MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe " WAS about 3 hours saying me to not disconnect the pda .... but after 3 hours I unplugGed it , i did a soft reset and automatically installed all the applications ( hard reset)
instead on my pc it does not recognize the rom
- When I received the phone activesync was working fine , then I download an italian version rom from clubimate, I ran it , and give me " Country ID Error" , FROM THAT MOMENT ON MY PDA NEVER RECOGNIZE AGAIN ACTIVESYNC on any type of PC
is it possible that the wizard originale rom corupt my pda?
the only problem is the activesync
- BUT IF ON THE BOOTLOADER IT GIVES ME USB V.1.02 IS THERE A POSSIBILITY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM?
- Is there a way to flash the ROM from the SD CARD ?
- Is there a probality that with a new ROM , activesync will work again ?
Thank you very very much toomuchdogfur for helping me , please I NEED A HELP , are about 4 days that this phone is making me crazy ...............

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.

HELP Please , I've lost my pda software

I've XDA neo ,and it's Rom version is old and german one , I want to update using AKU 3.3.13
I start it , but it lasted more than 40 minutes without any result , so I disconnect the pda , and restarted it ,but it stopeed at O2 screen ,the first screen at all ,where typed :
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
GSM 02.19.21
OS 3.0.0.0
I don't know what to do now ,plz help me to solve this problem
many thanx for ur reading my ask

What ROM (the update) where you trying to isntall? Was it an official one, or a cooked ROM?
Try to enter bootloader (the three colour screen) bu pressing and holding the com manager button and performing a soft reset.
If this works, download the latest version of active sync and install it, and once that has completed, restart your computer.
Download a WM5 NVID (No Vendor ID) ROM from here and unpack/unzip it into the root of a harddrive (i.e.: C:\WM5ROM\).
Now, put the device in bootloader mode, and within ActiveSync DISABLE connect through USB (Tools->Connection Settings->Uncheck Allow Connect through USB) and plug the device into the computer.
Now run the RUU from the WM5 ROM you downloaded earlier.
Your device should now work.

Many Thaaaaaaaaaaanx
At Last i've got my pda again
it worked very well,thank you very much for your help
by the way , the link for the rom which u've put in ur reply doesn't work but i get the oficial rom 2005 from another website and applied ur steps and everything is going ok
thank you very much

No problem.
The reason the link didn't work is because the FTP server doesn't allow direct access. You learn something new everyday.

I-Mate Jam Bootloader & Connection error!

Hello XDA Nice Team !
By mistaken i wrote some file to my bootloader in my I-Mate Jam ..
That was after using the bad ROM : 2.03
it's the worst cooked version i saw !
Now my bootloader mode is working .. but no way to connect to PC with USB port ..
My computer does not recognize my Magican when plugged in bootloader mode anymore!
Bootloader Ver: 1.0
is there any way to fix or upgrade or restore original bootloader
Now i cant upgrade or downgrade my magican by any method
Noway to use successful connection with any roomupdate utility
Please help me to fix or restore my bootloader!
Thanks to any one read or replay or try to help or help me to resolve my problem
XDA lover

i'm sorry that happened mate...
i've had success with flash-from-bootloader attempts before, both on my Magician, when i accidentally flashed off of Vista and it'd enter the bootloader every week or on a reset using the reset hole, and also on my Wizard when i ignored warnings from WM5torage and it'd only enter the bootloader
what precisely happens when you connect to the PC, allow USB connections in AS/MDC, and let the phone enter bootloader however it does? i can just flash a rom from there, but i won't (iirc) get any reports of as recognising the device...

My experience:
1- when i plug my sd card into my jam .. usb not recognized in bootloader mood !!
2- when i use puty or roomupdate it reaches to USB> then when i type any command it does not respond !
3- i could do something .. i let my phone bootup and this i-mate logon screen stays 4ever .. i connected my ppc to pc and i could explre my imate by activesync ...
i could reach something .. when i explore my phone and remove everything from startup folder .. my phone boots .. and i can see start botton .. no touch alignment comes .. and everything works .. but.. screen is virtually reversed .. i can see the OK botton but i must click on the facing area and it be clicked ..
i think i executed some wrong hard SPL to my phone ant that happened >
is there any way to resolve this problem?
is there any way to erase flash on my I-Mate Jam????
is there any way flash my phone?
i also have prepaid JAFWM with pkey and USB cable .. no BOX ..
Help please!

that's messed up... howsabout flashing it at the point when the phone boots up? if there's an AS connection there, then it may work... i'd flash to an official rom though

Same problem , PLS Help !!!
Thx for help

You should check USB connection I think...
Try plug your battery out of device and wait a moment (e.g.10 minutes) and try again,sometimes it will be fine when you did this.

If your magician isn't detected at ALL by your PC when plugging the USB cable into it (i mean, no new hardware; no unrecognized hardware; nothing is detected in your PC when you plug the USB cable), and unless you had previously made a SD backup of your entire Flash with this procedure ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianSDflash ), then your only option will be to build a JTAG diag cable:
Here are some general directions / ideias:

Some interesting stuff for debugging problems: http://pda2u.ru/ptopic205.html
For sure cotulla has one built so to test his ROMs + bootloader - maybe he will be willing to give you some directions if you run into problems, and above all, give you a prepared .nb0 (with the bootloader file) for your magician, which i do not know if there's one out there, extracted from an original ROM.
Anyway, you can always try and do it for yourself using itsme utilities. Follow this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=218643

Keeper,you're awesome! I'm searching for JTAG,too

Dear xiaojin1985 ,
Thx for your help, But unfortunately i tried your solution but it dosnt work !

Dear Keeper,
Thanks too for your help,
and i think the solution for my problem is one of the solutions you says ( How to build/run the JTAG: ) ,
but the pictures is not available anymore , so pls can you get the pictures ?

All the pictures are in here:
http://s218.photobucket.com/albums/cc23/alex_beda/ and in attachment there's a .mth file with all the pics built-in.
Don't take it wrong what i'm about to say, but in all honesty if you can't figure this out yourself (digging up the internet for the missing pics), i would suggest that you shouldn't try this, since this ain't easy at ALL...
Just to give you some ideias, it will require you to adapt your magician test point signals (TDO;TDI; nRESET; etc,)seen on the magician pinout pic to what is said; solder very thin wires (best done with a small hot air tip); fixate the small dip switch (micro switch) to be always on; keep the USB connected...idk... plus alot of other small details which ain't easy to accomplish.
Personally i haven't tried this yet but for sure it would work
If you decide to go ahead, please post some results!

Connection error solution

Every time i enter boot menu, i ran the upgrade
(HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O2.rar) following all the steps normally. When the device resets (so the upgrade is going to start), it's re-reseting again and showing ERROR 101 connection error. Any ideas?
Qtek Greek version

G 1337.42
D 1.12.00 WWE

Any Hint???

Hello
I´ve a phone that as a locked version of wm5.
I cannot connect it with active sync.It´s somehow disabled.
I tried to flash it through bootloader but I can´t.
I´ve disabled usb in active sync, and RUU gives me no connection error.
I can ear the sound in windows that a device was connected but can´t access the device.
I´ve read some posts and followed the instructions but still no success.
Any ideas??
I really liked to flash this device.It´s somewhat of a challenge.
thanx in advance

Any 1???
Ok
I manage some further steps but still no way to hardSPL the device.
What I did was:
1- Hard reset
2- finally managed to connect with active sync
3- I then runned ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe
4- followed the intructions
5- the PDA reboots to bootloader (and doesn´t connect with active sync)
6- in the PDA it appears usb (in left down corner) and RUU (in rigth up corner)
After that the progress bar doesn´t move and conection is lost (error 302)
After that at least I don´t have to recover
Can some1 help me??
Any1??any ideas??

1. are you sure that yours a G4?
2. you should read my post here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547
3. hope you that not yet screw up with G3 and G4.... or else your Prophet doomed... ( need to bring to factory... )
4. not 100% of device my HardSPL successful (like mmine ),
5. if so, just flash roms with my lazytool.. ,
ok ......
6. you should Flash NVID now, (must force bootloader with buttons pressed)
7. then activesync to PC (never disable the USB connection please ),
8. flash hardspl then (even not sucessful for 2 times...)
8. flash roms with lazytool
9. Good Luck

Still no luck
Thanx for your quick reply Dio
Anyway I still have no luck flashing NVID.
My device is a really G4.
I force bootloader, but then RUU loses connection and i can´t figure why.
I really follow all the instructions.
Already tried several times but no luck.
Another question:
is there any problem formating extended Rom.
It could solve some of my problems because it installs some CAB wich locks some of the device functions...
Thanks
