Hello, I though I knowd everything I needed to upgrade my hpc from wm5 to wm6.1 with the rom of this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401095 , so I did hard reset it, I then launched EnterBL.exe on it, I then launched ROMUpgradeUt.exe on my computer (I saw later that I should have use GetDeviceData.exe before but still, I think this wouldn't have change something), I saw that I must hard reset again my hpc, so I did and now: the screen show absolutly nothing, not "serial 6" or something but nothing, the only thing I seem to be able to do is to hard reset it again so I see the "press 0" screen but if I do so, it show me nothing again. Also, my computer doesn't recognise it. So ?
yeah I get it, I should have put the file in the right folder, not just launching it. Isn't there a way to move it now or I'm totally screwd like I can simply throw it by the window ? Even a way like paying qtek to reset it I don't know...
Woot, ok, at least now I know that I will be able to do something: I just did hit light + power + reset to enter the bootload (I'm getting a serial msg but I'm sure I will find what I'm suppose to do here since I saw help for this case many times). I understood that to go in the bootload, I had to copy the file (and since I didn't this well, I was screwed).
Fool!
You havent ROM in your UNI....Your ROM is Empty bro, cause you not upgrade correctly your UNI, you skiped a lot of steps, Do you unlock your UNI? Do you upgrade to supercid? DO you upgrade the bootloader? Do you try to upgrade the ROM with a instaler? Why you skip getdata? Do you want to brick your UNI or What?!, try to do all steps correctly and first try to back to original WM5 ROM. I did brick a UNI cause i didnt follow the steps, take care plis....
and....
Put your UNI in Bootloader, disconect usb conections in Active sync, conect the UNI, execute the installer of the ROM, if you have errors, you' ll format the UNI's RAM with mtty.exe (task 28 55aa) and try again.

Used awizard to revert back the OS from ver2 to ver1. It has unexpected error during the "w" option and the device is hung for a long time. Did a soft reset, and after that it only shows upto i-mate booting screen and sits there. No activesync is detected now of course and is there anything to recover this. Please...
Press Camera+softreset, you will enter bootloader, try to get you original ROM and flash. Hope this can help you!!! BR
This will work. I had the same thing with my 8125 once. Get it to the bootloader screen (Camera+SoftReset) and connect via USB to your PC. Run your RUU and it will work.
I had a bad experience with aWizard and figured I was not educated enough and decided to not mess with anything but an RUU for now. Even still I don't mess with ROMs anymore. Not worth the risk/headache.
Let us know if you recovered.
I've decided to upgrad my Magician. When RUU proposed me to upgrade my device, I've pushed button "upgrade" and left my pcs alone. After 30 mins I'm back, but my magicin, seems, isn't want to upgrade... I've disconnect it, made a hard reset, but... it showed me bootlader... Until this time it shows me bootlaedr, and i can't flash it.. SD-upgrade isn't work. I've written to sd my old rom, but ppc isn't see it.. I've tried to flash with MAUpgrade_noid.. it shows me that on my device no rom, radio.. and the future rome is "none", as the radio... it writes nothing.. -(
How I can to raise it from the dead?
And other hand of the problem is MAUpgrade_noid doesn't see rom files. =(
Place the program MaUpgrade in the same folder
Put is in USB mode and yust redo it till it works
hello,
I've tried to install skype ona my cingular 2125 and now it doesn't work.
the phone just stuck on .cab extractin screen and i restart it.now the only thing it show is the cingular startup screen and that's all.I have the cingular rom update uttility but it says that the device is not connected to the pc using usb,and ask me to check the connection.
what i can do about this issue?can anyone help me?
thank you in advance
Try turning off USB connection in activesync. With the phone turned off, if you hold the camera button when you plugin the usb to phone (already connected to PC), it should start up in the bootloader.
Other method to get the bootloader is to hold the camera and the comm manager button and turn on the phone.
You should be able to use the ROM update utility with the bootloader.
Look at Karhoe's guide in the stickies at the top of this forum...
Maybe hard reset will be enough ?
Turn off Your phone. Press and keep hold of both soft keys, press the power button for approximately 0.5 to 1 second, phone will ask U if U are sure, press 0.
hard reset is a lot safer than reflash...
i can't believe
thank you for all the advises but unfortunateli non of them helps.I've trie everything and it still shows cingular's wellcome screen and that is all.after that the only thing i can do is to remove the battery because nothing else work.I put the original rom from cingular and everything was OK with the setup, but after that -the same.I've tried with this hard reset- the same.probbably the nezt thing that i will do is to hit it into the ground )

Missunderstanding here
Our goal was making Your phone alife again.
None of mentionated procedures could help with some unknown to us bug in Your version of 3-rd party software
The latest skype works perfectly for me, in WM5 and WM6, since you are going to hard reset, why not perform a WM6 upgrade?
re
I was tried to reflash with the original aku2 rom from htc/cingular (the flash was successfull)but after that the phone is still not working.allways the same- cingular's startup screen and that's all.also try with hard reset with no success.I doubt that this phone will ever work again.or if there is another way to "clean" the whole memory?!is it possible to hardware reset the phone?
Format BINFS and reflash, that will clean everything except the IPL and SPL
Hi everybody,
i got a XDA Orbit 2 and today i tried to install SPB Phone Suite.
During install it asked for a Softreset, which i did...
After that i refused to boot and keeps hanging at the o2 Bootscreen.
It totally freezes, regardless if i pull any cable, remove the sd-card etc..
So i thought i'd a hardreset once again, but that one didnt work at all.
The Restore lasts maybe 10 secs (with and without sc-card), then asks for another boot and im again where i startet, the o2 bootscreen.
Any chance i get it working again?
Like somebody else recommended flashing it with either another rom or the original one, which i might d/l somewhere.
Then again, any Flash-HowTo starts with an ActiveSync Connection.
Since my Device wont boot at all, the ActiveSync Connection wont be established...
Any helpful Advise highly appreciated :-/
regards...
You should be able to manually put it into the boot loader. I'm not familiar with you phone so you will need to research that.
***Update**** Try this; "turn your phone on press and hold the two buttons on the upper left and right side from your naviwheel and press the resetbutton with your stylus"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366303
hrm, pressing the upper left/right buttons and reseting it doesnt do anything.
regarding google im the first human ever trying to get the htc touch cruise into bootloader mode.
i keep researching, thx for ur effort tho
Manually getting into the boot loader will allow to establish a link to your PC in order to re-flash. Like I said, I'm not familiar with your phone....
yup, i noticed some more users here own an Orbit2.
So i hope somebody is able to enlighten me, before i brake my fingers while trying to press all buttons same time and then somehow hit the reset button, hehe.
ok, i managed to get into bootloader.
some more detailed research helped me there, actually inside this board :-/
now lets see if HardSPL makes me happy.
tx again for ur time
I have an Orbit 2,
To Hard reset and delete everything from your phone and then let the rom reload everything back to factory settings, do the following.
1. Remove SD card
2. Hold down the 'Windows Icon' Button and the 'OK' button at the same time and keep them held in.
3. While still holding in the above 2 buttons, use the stylus and press the reset button in and then release it but you must still keep the 'Windows' button and the 'OK' button still in until you are prompted with a menu.
4. Once the menu appears: press 'Send' button to reset and reload rom or any other button to cancel.
I have done this procedure a few times now and is quite safe, especially after loading a crap piece of software that totally knackers up my Orbit 2.
I hope this helps you out........
Good luck
Tried that before and it worked out before also.
This Time the complete recover-process lasts only 10 seconds and then the Boot doesnt work anymore either.
Dunno why the hardreset aint working anymore.
Regarding the Flashing:
I managed to get into Bootloader and see the following Information:
POLA200
SPL-1.25.0000
CPLD-2
Serial.
Then i plug in the USB-Cable and start the Update-Utility.
After following each step i get the following error:
Error 262: Update Error
Saying it has encountered communication Errors and asks me if i want to recover...
Im running VistaSP1, maybe thats a reason?
Try this for your Vista issue. It worked for me the first time. Although I don't know if SP1 has any effect.
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=23&Itemid=27 This was for Hermes also....
Updating the USB-Driver didnt help .
Using a XP VirtualPC didnt work out either, hehe.
Ill try tomorrow on a XP Machine, thanks for ur time once more.
Im not that desperate anymore, hehe.
Damn, now im using a Windows XP Machine (incl. all Updates) with ActiveSync 4.5, and still get the [262] Update Error.
Seems its seriously damaged :-(
One Question:
Did you installl phone-suite on a cooked rom, or on the original o2 rom?
i got the same freezing problem on my touch with a cooked rom. with the original rom i got no problems.

HTC Touch Cruise ROM on O2 Orbit 2
Hi,
Sorry for posting on this thread which might be the wrong place but hope someone ccan help.
Can I install an HTC Cruise ROM (WM 6.1 from HTC website) on my Orbit 2 ?
Hi. Can someone please help me out? I was trying to flash my cingualr 2125 from wm 5.0 to 6.0. I was using Kar Hoe's instuctions and I used the typhoon instuctions instead of the tornado instuctions. I didn't know there was a difference at the time.
I did all the steps up until step 5 on the typhoons where it states you will get a white screen. At that point, I accidently hit my usb and the phone disconnected from active sync. I thought if I took my battery out, I could just do a reboot and get the reboot screen. Well I got nothing. I cannot even turn the phone one. I cannot even connect to active sync. I thought maybe I fried the battery and bought a new one and no luck. I have done a hard restart and all other things that I could think of.
Does anyone know if I had hurt the phone and if it can be fixed to get to the bootable screen. I would be happy just to get it to power on and stay with wm5 just to have the phone working.
I really appreciate your help.
Khernden69
Aah i remember doing the same once i screwed up my newly acquired tornado with typhone rom. phone was dead no bootup screen nothing, i tried every thing asked everywhere, thankfully i had warranty period so went to them with very innocent face and made up a story that "i switched it at night and it wont boot in the morning" they bought and gave me a new phone after a week. any ways GOOd Luck
Enjoy WM6
think your in trouble mate. Using the wrong rom and cancelling it half way is a big no no. Least you have a fancy paper weight
Similar problem
I have just acquired a tornado (in it's o2 guise) and it will only get as far as the wm splash screen. I thought trying a hard reset or flashing it with a new rom might revive it. However I tried hard reset (holding down the 2 soft keys beneath screen while pressing power button?) but it just kept booting to the splashscreen. The phone doesn't boot far enough to be recognised by Activesync so can't flash it. Can anyone suggest a solution? Would going to bootloader mode allow me to flash it? If so, how do I do that?
Thanks
try this.
1.switch off phone
2. remove battery
3. re install battery
4. hold camera button
5. while holding camera button plug usb cable to port
6. after some second u will see three color bootloder screen
7.format binfs
7. then u can flash correct tornado rom
you can us alternative method for going to bootloder mode
hold camera button while holding camera button press power button(not hold)
GOOD LUCK
Hi fayizk1
Thanks for the tip. Just one question, will this command CID unlock the phone too? It's just the phone isn't CID unlocked, I've tried using instructions and tools on other threads to change the CID value of downloaded roms to that of my phone, but all Typhoonnbftools produces is a 512 byte .nbf file which isn't good for anything. Any suggestions?
binfs not allowed!
When I run format binfs from teratermpro I'm told it's not allowed. What do I do now?
First off, try a couple different times. The "format BINFS" command is case sensitive - where your capital letters are makes ALL the difference. You may need to try a couple times, but I believe "format" is all lowercase and "BINFS" is all capitals.
Thanks djsleepwalker but I tried your suggestion and tried a few times in different cases but still got "Not allowed operation". (If all caps I get "Invalid command") I read somewhere that I'm getting this message because the phone is not CID-unlocked?
Tried a few times in different cases, still get "Not allowed operation". I read somewhere else that I'm getting this message because the phone is not CID-unlocked? Well I know that otherwise I would have just flashed another rom. Problem is I have tried using Typhoonnbftools to change the CID over numerous roms, the file it produces is only 1kb or smaller which is no good for anything. I feel like I'm running out of options...
Just try to flash with a legal WM5 ROM from the magnufacture's web site while the device is in bootloader screen. I hope it will work.
Good luck
This is my problem. There isn't one on their site! I emailed them but they were no help at all.
edit: Have also searched loads of forums etc. no-one seems to have it and there are lots of people looking for o2 roms.
Won't help
