Hi! I have the same problem after trying to upgrade Radio 1.12 to 1.13 with USB on my S100 (Magician).
I have used MagicianRadio_1.13.00_maupgrade on FTP XDA.
The installation crashed at 87% and asked to reset the PDA, after resetting nothing more on my PDA and it is satying on serial bootloader mode. No chance to reload with a SD mksbigstoraged. I actually got a ROM FRA_11202_125_11210 on a 256mb SD and it run my download from SD card.

Pfiew had the same problem just minutes ago.
Haven't done any thing special with my phone for months. It just crashed viewing a missed call and trying to dial the person. Than i soft reseted and the phone was locked. Reseting x times didn't work. I was lucky when i put in the usb cable i just reseted again and surprisingly the my phone came back to life again. Than i thought maybe battery but after the phone booted battery was at 85%?
Strange but i happy it's still working...So if you have this problem reseting with usb cable could help you...

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 ...............

wizard g3 stuck in bootloader screen

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

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.

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...

if it's not recognized, remove the SIM card, the SD card, and on the PC open activesync and disable usb connections. for more info open this link

Try to reflash with another ROM
Hope it helped
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
