Have you tried the suggestion at least?
Look for the original ROM of your device and find a WINDOWS XP computer and try to reflash with those 2 as suggested from above.

i want Try Mamaich Method but dont recognize the usb port.
Do you know?
Thanks

I don't think it would work. The Mamaich method is for a different problem. Yours clearly is due to Windows Vista incompatibility. I had read a couple of this type of thread in the past and the only solution was already given to you.

do you know where is the original rom?

What type of Universal do you have? TMobile, O2, IMate...etc?

Sorry
I have a qtek9000

Before I tried my 1st upgrade I download the official ROM just in case.
I thought I had it but I can't find it. I have one copy on the PC at work, but I will only return there next Wednesday, so no big help.
I remember see a post were a member informed that he had an ftp with all the ROMS. Maybe some one remember the address. If I get, it i will post it.
Cheers.

i was trying to upgrade rom downloaded from o2 for my xda 2i i have same problem as previous guy i have tried to load from windows xp machine but get connection error 101 my screen is blank apart from usb and v1.01 can anyone help?

sounds to me like it might be as simple as a dead battery.
1. what happens when you try to charge it with the wall charger?
2. have you tried switching batteries?
3. you still haven't said what you were doing with the device before this happend
4. this is totally unrelated to WM6 Forum, you shouldn't have posted this here

when you put your universal on usb with a pc on xp there is a detection? or not and are you sur that there isn t any write on the screen .
because i have the same pb in 2006 an ithink that my universal is dead an aftrer 2 day i put the universal on the light and i see v101 if you don t see to the light you don t see it because the backlight don t work.

It do not enter boot loader with light + power + reset and show no signs of life.
The light is off.when i push reset button flash the red light.
When connected to USB, PC reports "USB device not recognised"
I want a original rom for qtek9000 for test.
Anybody have this rom?

When I bricked my XDA Exec by means of hung program during the upgrade, I had: no reaction to normal Reset, no entry to Bootloader - basically a brick.
I did LeftSoftKey + RightSoftKey + Reset to do a *hard* reset (everything was lost anyway), and after that I could see "Serial... v1.01" Bootloader notification. When you connected that to a computer, it changed to "USB... v1.01" prompt.
So I just took JWright's image, and re-flashed it.
Guess what? It detected I had no image/extRom/RadioRom whatsoever then offered to re-flash them. I knew I'm OK when Radio upgrade progress indicator started to move.
It took me to get to another machine first, however. My Vista machine totally screwed up things, whereas my home XP managed to do the job.
Sitting on JWright's 2.02.02 now - very thoroughly made ROM, love Voice Command integrated with it instead of crappy Cyberon's software.

Having trouble flashing

Hey guys, I am trying to flash Dutty's newest rom, but im having some trouble...
When I double click the RUU.exe file, I put a check in the checkbox, hit continue. then put another check, hit continue, then I get an error saying:
"Error [200]: Invalid update tool"
"Please get newer update utility"
This is odd because I read on the Wikki that you get this error if you don't have HardSPL, but I do. In fact, I have flashed at least 4 or 5 different roms on this phone. Another thing is that my phone isnt in activesync mode, and for some reason when I try to install activesync (directly from microsoft's website and from the CD that came with my tilt) I get an error saying that it wont install... And another weird thing is that this never stopped it before, I have flashed a rom without it being in activesync with the computer...
When I tried to install Microsoft's activesync directly from their website, I double click the setup.msi file, and then it says :
"preparing installation..."
"The wizard was interrupted before Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 could be completely installed.
Your system has not been modified. To complete installation at another time, please run setup again.
Click Finish to exit the wizard"
And this happens every time I try it... I have tried redownloading the file and I get the same issue... I even checked to see if maybe I downloaded the wrong version (like the vista version or something) but I downloaded the correct one.
Now, when I try to install activesync from the CD that came with my Tilt, I get an error saying that I need to update my Adobe Flash Player, So i click on the link that it gives me, and I updated it. Even though it is currently up to date, I STILL get this error every time I try, even after restarting my computer.
Any ideas?

put the phone in bootloader and tell me exactly what it says there.

OK, with the phone powered on, press and hold the camera button and insert the stylus in the reset hole until the tri-colored screen comes up. This is bootloader. Tell me what it says there, exactly.

After you put your phone in bootloader mode as P1 said, you will see something like this:
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.93.0000
CPLD-8
Once you make a record of what is displayed, reply back with it.

ok, this is what it says (in the top red box):
KAIS1* MFG
SPL-1.0.OliPof
CPLD-8
Then in the white box it says: "Serial"

Since you already have it in the boot loader just keep it there and try to flash it, see if you get any errors that way.

What version of Windows is on your computer?
If your running vista you need the mobile device center, not activesync.

Im using windows XP, I will try flashing while it is in bootloader, I edit my post once I see if it is successful or not.
**It did not work when I tried flashing from the bootloader screen, I got the same error

which rom are you flashing your device with?

I am trying to flash Dutty's newest ROM, and right now Dutty's 3rd or 4th newest one is on my phone.

after you put your device in bootloader, and connected it to the pc, did the word "serial" change to "usb"? and were drivers loaded for the device? there should be a htc usb sync or microsoft usb sync in your device manager

Yea, I dont see either of those in my device manager...

Sounds like you're missing the drivers. Need to roll 'em back to the XP drivers.

You use google or XDA search via google. Try ROM flashing with Vista, etc...
Remember, there is a lot of valid data in Hermes forum as well

jjb, I had the same problem the other night on my home computer with XP. Luckily, I did not have the same problem with my work computer, also with xp. Something happended on the home computer to fcuk up the drivers (i'm guessing, as GSLEON pointed out). I had the same install issues with Activestinc. I had these issues in the past (at least 6 months ago) and was able to finally get Activestinc installed after rebooting multiple times. This time I only tried once before I waited to go back to the office and flash. I'm not sure what to do to rebuild(?) the drivers, but you might try a different computer. Also, my google search (for the 200 error) the other night pulled up a different web site that listed a lot of error codes and what they mean. I'm gonna try and figure out my driver issues with activstinc this weekend and I will post if successful.

Thanks for the input... im going to try re-installing windows when I get the chance and hopefully that will clear up this driver issue.

rather than going through all the trouble trying to solve this problem, i would just flash using the microsd card

Don't you think you are giving us too less info about your problem?
First, try to read the HardSPL thread and search for the "errors" you have related to this step in this thread, and post your problems in this thread... there is no need to open a new thread...
Second, read the whole thread of the ROM you are trying to flash...
Of course, before this, the step 0 is: read the Wiki Kaiser content, and make special read of points related to flash a ROM.
Good luck, and good read
Cheers

Ok
ROM version : 1.81.452.0 WWE

After you stop USB connections (which I do not do in Vista), are you unplugging the cable from the phone and waiting 5-10 seconds before reconnecting? If not, you will get an error.

yes i do,but it still gives me an error

I had this issue on my laptop, try a different USB port. They both looked identical (obviously), but were on different controllers on opposite sides of the laptop. The right side works, and the left side errors out.

Ok trying this out,thanks for the note

Need Help Tri Color Screen

Ok so I decided to restart my phone and im now stuck at the boot screen says
Kais1*0
SPL-3.56.Hard
CPLD-8
Went to the help thread everytime I try to do anything I get a error 260 or connection any suggestions or am I done for?

Run the stock ROM that came with the device while in boot loader mode. You could have easily found that out by doing a simple search

You are done for it.

Read the stickies...
*Hint: the one about been stuck at the bootloader
Dave

I have tried all the steps in the sticky the phone will change from saying serial to usb but my pc wont reconize it itll say usb device not reconized and then say your new hardware may not work and when i run the stock roms like i said ill just get error 260 connection problems.

Hmmm,
Error 260 can usually be resolved by reseting your device and/or computer.
Has you PC been rebooted latley, it might help?

O2 XDA Exec Won't Power On after Unccessfull ROM Upgrade

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
Dinesh Kumaar

I think you have been bricked your device...

And don´t forget to vote!

I had already done those steps to get no results.
its my badluck.

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.
Regards

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
