Hi everybody,
maybe anyone can still help me.
It seems it kind of f''''d my Device by installing SPB Software, at least it doesn't boot anymore, neither does Hardreset work out.
So the last Solution might be flashing the ROM via bootloader.
When starting the Update-Utility i always get stuck with a Connection Error (262).
yes, yes, i use Windows Vista (get the same error with XP btw).
I also installed the latest USB Driver and upgraded WMDC to 6.1 using the HowTo in the Hermes Section of this board, but unofrtunately it does not work either.
Still Error 262...
Any advice highly appreciated :-(
p.s.: i started another thread since the other one mainly deals with my hardreset problems and seems ppl dont read it anymore. excuse me if i get annoying, but im getting a bit desperate

Hi I´ve got a spanish Qtek S200 which I´d like to flash to english.
The furthest I got flashing it was an error 160
I´m using vista.
What noobie error am I making!?
Currently is:
2.9.7.28 ESN
Cannot upgrade using vista must use xp. I had the same problem as well on my dopod818, it shows error 260.
I had the same problem while using other PC.
It crashed my windows several times, so I gave up.
By the way, does anyone knows if the source of the upgrading tool is open? If it was it would be easier to fix the problem for those who are using Vista.
Thats mental!!
and qtek or no other manufacturers have released a get around!?
I´m not exactly the only vista&Qtek owner in the world!
Just a shame my old laptop wont power up!
You won't be able to use Vista. Why don't you set up a virtual machine running XP? You can then run activesync on the VM. VMware is free, you'll just have to get yourself a copy of XP to install.

I do agree, as Vista/Qtek user. But don't get your hopes up to high.
The released RUU's are device specific. I can imagine that the firmware upgrades for the new devices are Vista compatible, but our beloved Prophet is an discontinued product.... As long as there isn't a new official ROM, there won't come a upgrade RUU either...
But I do have an Prophet-RUU that don't crash with Vista (after changing the ActiveSync drivers) but it only works with a signed nk.nbf. It is useless or flashing any other ROM-file then the one it is released with.
I don't know how open those RUU's are. I'm afraid not to much, otherwise some genius would have modded one of them allready!
Hi,
I tried to upgrade the ROM, unfortunately we had a power cut (sod's law haha) and my PC cut out. Now when I try to turn my XDA on (o2 exec) all I get is a dark screen with USB at the top and V1.01, I've tried the recovery tool included in the update but obviously didn't work because windows doesn't recognise the device.
Any ideas would be MASSIVELY appreciated.
btw I've tried doing a hard reset and pressing 0 but it just resets the device to the above screen =/
Thanks,
Lee
Just Re-Run The Rom Upgrade Utility And Reflash The Rom.

Tried that several times, the problem is that Vista isn't recognising the device thus the rom flash can't find it. Ive been through all the Wiki how-to's with no avail
Ive Never Flashed With Vista And Never Will.
I Read There Was Issues And Didnt Think It Was Worth The Risk.
Its Never Wise To Run Flashing Software In An OS It Wasnt Designed For.
Anyway Flash With XP And Your Problems Will Be Gone.
I Dont Think XP Even Recognises The Device When Its In Bootloader The Flashing Software Just Knows What To Do, Although The Software Wasnt Designed With Vista In Mind.

OllieD

There are some year 2004 XP drivers available for Vista. Do a search and you will find it.
It is too late and I am tired. If you can't find it then I will try to help you later.
Good luck and don't worry as nothing is wrong with your device. Wrong drivers for PC.
KOR!
If nothing else works, try using mtty to erase the device, and reflash!
Oh, and word of advice: Never flash with Vista, it f.cks your device! Always do your falshing with XP, that's the most stable out there...

I always flash my devices on Vista, and never had any problems. Though, you have to have proper XP 2004 year driver installed.

Do you try to flash via a hub connection? Because it's recommended to connect the device directly to the PC!
brother go to this link your problem is fixed

well, yeah. but in that case, I could argue that the driver, which counts, is from XP
But anyway, most people here would recommend against flashing in Vista, unless you must. XP is just a lot more stable, and causes fewer problems. but let's not get into which is better, shall we?
help!!!!!
hey guys, ive been stuck in this bootloader thing for ages now its been a day ive had no luck so far im using vista myself and there is no XP computer available to me unfortunately. the mtty utility says cannot open ports, im not using a hub either and the unit_exitbootloader.exe does not help either i need some serious help please. the screen is stuck at USB on the top (whe i take out the usb cable it says Serial on top) and v1.00 on the bottom. please help, ive got vodafone v1640 version of universal. thanks in advance
dear fellow users,
i can't revert my unbranded HTC TyTn II to factory settings, which is necessary, as i need to make use of the warranty.
i tried to stick to the "idiot friendly" guide in this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=335568) but already the first step fails; i cant reinstall the HTC factory ROM, neither the 6.0 nor the 6.1 version.
everything starts normal, and then it gets stuck at 73% and says Error 262. i looked up the error, (disconnect, reconnect, it supposedly resumes) but what was told there didn't help.
my bootloader says
KAIS130
3.56.Hard
CPLD-8
i now managed to install ChrBeck's german wm 6.5. that worked, but it's obviously not what i need.
I tried the whole thing under Windows 7, 64 bit. and windows xp, 32 bit
Any suggestions?
thankyou for reading!

thx mate,
but unfortunately nothing i googled or found here solved my problem; and as i indicated before, upgrading to newer roms seems to work, just the downgrade fails at 73% with that error.
any more ideas?
EDIT: i'll try mtty... (only thing out of 5 threads regarding the subject i haven't tried
EDIT2: after endless tries i successfully flashed a second (Tejak's) WM 6.5, and was, only after i did that, able to downgrade to HTC original. they way it's supposed to be. no reason nor rhyme, if you ask me, but it worked. FINALLY
Hello everybody!!
I am a beginner in ROMupgrading issues, but i would really love to give my prophet a new soul
So i downloaded 2 cooked roms here, and tried to install them.
Both recommended doing a HardSPL. But after copying the jumpSPL and running it(white screen on Prophet), the the "RomUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe" crashes while "receiving information from phone" without any error message...
I use a fully updated windows 7, did anyone face similar problems or has solutions?
Thank you VERY much
PS: I already tried the XP mode AND running the update utility as an Administrator, but both had no effects
Anybody?
I've just found out, that its not the hardSPL, but I now think its the main flashing tool...
Do I have to install activeSync or is the new Tool (Vista, W7) also ok??
THX for help!
hi experts, i tried to upgrade to HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O1 frm wm2003.
i did not check on the radio version
i click on the update (btw i was on vista when i did it,)
oh ya when i noticed that its meant for xp, i tried using xp too but to no avail.
when i was on the program, my phone's version wasnt shown, so was the version i wanted to upgrade to isnt shown too.
my bootloader was currently stuck at v1.00
tried the mtty1.42 method too, but i cant find the usb function..
need helps from the experts.. sorry for the poor english.
im sorry if i double post.. i seriously cant find an solution to it..

Can you please tell me what you did? i'm in the same situation that you, I have a phone with the same specs and i'm using a Vista. I already instaled ActiveSync (at least the verson for the Vista the "Windows Mobile Device Center")
Any clue?
