I have a 750v from a friend which has frozen during an upgrade, I have the red, green, blue and white screen. When I plug it in to a pc it indicated it has found the USB device but it will not link to activesync.
I have downloaded a recovery tool and a rom update but they will not run as they can't find the device, they will not even run, I have tried hard and soft reset.
I have looked through the forum and could not find the answer

Hi, Im totally new to smart phones, and only received my phone today.
I was having problems sending sms messages, every time i received a message saying "wait 15 Seconds", after researching the net, i found that by updating the rom, i could get over this problem, i tried to attempt this but am now completely stuck.
Every time i switch on my SPV M600, its goes to a red,green,blue screen.
the IPL is 2.10.0001 and the spl is the same.
I have active sync on my pc, but i cant make a connection now.
Really stuck, please help.
many thanks

What ROM where you attempting to upgrade to?
To get the device back, I would say "Read the wiki" but it's down!!!
Download this ROM.
In ActiveSync, disable "connect through USB" (File->Connection Settings).
Put the device into bootloader (the three coloured screen) and connect it to the computer using the USB cable.
Run the file you downloaded earlier. This should then install a new ROM.
From there, just wait for it to finish.
Now, it should work!
From there, you could re install the Orange WM5 ROM, or try upgrading to WM6. Make sure you read all the relevant guides first!

I have an ex-Vodafone, sim unlocked HTC touch diamond and it won't turn on. All I can do is bring it into the tri-colour screen/bootloader. When plugged into my computer the phone screen goes from serial to usb, but thats as far as it gets. Communication with activesync is no longer possible. I have no idea what to try now, I've gone as far as my non-technical mind will go ! help
I'm in the UK. Phone info;
Duttys V2.7 RC2 WWE - 27/10/08
Radio 1.08.25.08
P3700
Bootloader screen reads;
DIAM 100 MFG 64M
SPL 1.40 Olinex
MicroP- Diam (LED) v11
PSOC - Diam STAGE_PVT v0x30
Welcome to forums
Please have a deep read here:

You´ll find all needed to do a succesfull reflash.
Good luck,
no comms with activesync
thanks for the link. have read the info on flashing my device but my phone no longer communicates with activesync. Is it bricked ? Phone won't go beyond initial 'vodafone' startup screen. i don't know what to do now.
which os in computer do you use ??? if in tri-color boot loader, pc only recognized the HTC driver device, but Activesync won't show the connect. You understand what i mean? Go Flash yourself your device with successfully, I will pretty sure that your device doesn't brick.
yes correct you can run the RUU wrapper while the phone is in the boot loader and itll still flash the rom
i use windows xp home sp2, i don't understand the flash process and can't get further than the tri-colour screen. I think i need a very simple step by step walkthrough if I'm to get any further !
ok
down load the rom of your choice and exract it
in the folder there should be a file called ruu_signed.nbh and a exe file called RUU wrapper or something like that if it doesnt come with the RUU wrapper it should be able to be downloaded from a stickied thread at the top of the diamond rom forum
then u need to connect ur phone to the pc while its in the boot screen the click on the ruu wrapper in the file on the pc and it should install on ur phone
hi, i downloaded the ruu, then connect my phone in boot screen, start the install, it asks me to make an activesync connection. activesync no longer finds my phone so no connection is made. i got this close, what now ? thanks for the help !
Done it finally
after many dime bar moments and weeks of annoyance the touch diamond finally came back to life. expecting this phone to actually work as advertised turned out to be a bridge too far. cheers for the help.
dear all,
first at all: I´m completely new here, so hello.
I finished reading the Wiki twice, also the guide from 'mskip' (Flashing your First GSM Raphael Rom (For Noobs)). very good and sounds very easy.
now I downloaded this file: RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3
when I´m trying to flash, it results in a "error 202: connection". could the windows mobile device manager be a reason, because here is just an explanation with activesync. as I use win7 64bit, activesync will not run.
I also checked lots of posts here, but did not get a right answer which could lead to a solution.
btw I have the "MDA Vario IV"-version.
greetings, tris
EDIT:
Update: Now I downloaded "TAEL ROM v6.28244 RC2".
Connected mobile to PC, waited until it is connected via 'windows mobile device manager'.
Proceeded with the update (my image is 1.69.111.6) until the screen turned black and a progress bar is shown (0%). now error 262 appeared. have to unplug USB cable, reinstall battery and restart. old system is still working. what am I doing wrong? btw, same error on my laptop with win7 32bit with fresh installed 'windows mobile device manager'.
EDIT2: okay, and same on my other laptop with winXP and activesync.
You need to flash hard spl before doing anything else. Try putting the phone into bootloader (hold volume down, then soft reset), then connect it to your PC once it's in the tricolor screen and run the hard spl exe.
After that, just flash roms off your sd card. Make sure it's FAT 32 format, rename the ruu_signed.nbh to RAPHIMG.nbh, put it on the sd card root, and then go into bootloader and follow the instructions.
volume down and reset done. phone switched to tricolor screen. then I started 'RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_190_1_3', phone switched to gey screen with progress bar. 30 seconds later after 0% progress: error 262 appeared
EDIT: also when trying to update via bootloader, my image (1.69.111.6) will be left blank, I can´t see the version number which is currently installed.
I just hope you have a GSM TP/RAPH...
RAPH300 -> "T-Mobile MDA Vario IV"
but why do you ask? do I have the wrong software?
Just hear of those bad incidents with CDMA phones and GSM ROMs is all...
What does it display on the bottom of the screen when you boot into the tricolor screen/bootloader before you connect it to your PC and then after?
first serial, later USB
oh my god! *facepalm* okay for all the noobs out there: look at your phone. if you use HardSPL for the first time, you have a short timeframe to confirm "unsigned access to bootloader" via touchscreen. if you don´t do so, you will result in connection error 202 / 262.
thank you all, it works
Hello everyone, I know this is not a new issue here but I have posted here before in order to get a solution and nothing worked.
Here is the issue:
I got a treo 750 from the us, cingular. It came with WM 6 I think and I followed a guide from here and upgraded it to 6.1. Than I saw a custom rom and installed (didnt notice it was only for htc) and than my treo got stuck on the three colour screen. I than tried palm recovery tool (not succeeded), flahshed the origininal rom and others by cable connection (not succeedded again) and now, almost a year later I am trying to flash the original rom using a mini sd card formatted with fat 32 and with the original cheeimg inside.
The problem is that I have no clue on how to start the installation. I do reset, the screen stays black, I do a hard reset and the screen asks if I want to delete everything and if I select yes or no, the screen goes back to black. I pressed reset plus media button and I get the three colour screen. Now I am trying commands using mtty, since I am using vista in my only pc, I installed windows xp mode on seven and I am using a virtual xp with active sync. I disabled usb connection on activesync and still it does not show usb option to connect with mtty.
Any tips?
Hi folks,
I wanted to upgrade my HTC Universal (64) with WM5 to WM6.5 with this:
TOMAL V9 64MB WM 6.5 23004.exe
On the first try the tool recognized the current versions of the images and showed me which versions will be installed.
After starting the process my USB connection got lost (happens sometimes ) and the patching crashed.
I made a hard reset (the two Soft-Buttons + Stylus-Reset). It showed "Press 0 to restore factory default, Press X to exit", which is meant to install the system from the ROM, after the update from the new ROM. (But the ROM exchange seems to be interrupted and corrupted.)
The screen showed "Serial" and this serial number with no backlight, after reconnecting the USB it showed USB.
I made a second try with the Patch-Tool above - but now no versions were found and shown - neither as current nor as new. And the tool stuck.
The "Serial/USB /w serial number" issue is a known situation and could be fixed by using MTTY like in here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Universal_Problems
But after the fix and new hard reset the screen is empty and the light off.
It cannot connect with MTTY anymore because it won't connect via USB (active sync processes are off) - the USB port isn't available anymore.
And: I get to the recovery screen ("Press 0 to restore factory default, Press X to exit") simply by pressing the two soft buttons - without pressing the Stylus-Reset-Hole.
I never had that and I don't know what to do - and be sure that I searched the net and, of course, this forum but I didn't find a solution (because I didn't find this exact problem).
Anybody any ideas or experiences with this situation?
(Don't tell me it's bricked. It's NOT bricked! It'll never be bricked! )
