Dead Prophet? Problem with flashing? This could help you! - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading

Hi,
I just crashed my phopret. BUT due to some good ideas of user Users i solved my issue. I want to tell you how.
My history:
I already had the "update package" installed and used several WM 6.1 ROMs.
I love the Diamond rom from vincent. see link
Then i tried to flash my prophet with a rom for the charmer. Hm, bad. It crashed when it tried to restart. Anyway.
I tried to reanimate it. It failed. I stopped for that moment and started again a day after.
Now it runs again. Juhu. I tried every update , orginal ROM, Tera Term etc. But always the same issue:
Bootloader starts but only runs until info screen with the isp number etc.
"The Charmer rom erased everything so there was now Operating system at all."
Even the bootloader was not the original one with 3 colours and I was not able to connect to the PC because it stopped booting.
How to solve this issue:
Download the "Lazy Tool" from here
If you need additional info read this otherwise try it my way
Flashing Tool thread
1. Press Camera Button and Softreset (with stylus).
2. Remove ONLY the Stylus. --> Get the 3 Colour Screen.
3. Connect with Cable to the (this important) USb Port at your Mainboard (native ports).
4. Unpack it.
5. Run "Upgrade.bat" and keep the window opene in the Background
6. Go to "lib" and run the G3 or G4 "Rom update utility"
7. follow the introductions
Finish. You did it. Great job.
To get a good Rom.
Use the update utility and run after a reset the vincent rom.
BE ALWAYS AWARE THAT YOUR PROPHET IS CHARGED. Mine wasn´t once and i wondered why it always restarts again.
Some nice progs are:
Slide 2 View (Album like on the iphone)
Slide 2 Unlock (unlock like on the iphone)
Icontact (contacts like on the iphone)
Touch Response (get a vibration by pressing a button)
G Alarm (good alarm in the morning)
BT Remote (to remote powerpoint by bluetooth)
Thanks to everybody who develops nice tools like the "lazy tool" and shares his/her experiences with WM. Good job Friends.
Greatz,....

Prophet AKU2.3 pdamobiz customized rom [G4 with SPL 2.15.0001]

I've installed Prophet AKU2.3 pdamobiz customized rom [G4!!, with SPL 2.15.0001] 16 MB version yesterday to try:
http://www.pdamobiz.com/show_news.asp?NewsID=68863
and it's AWESOME. The whole device is boosted up, so fast then never before! It's the best rom I've ever tried so far, honestly. Also movies, musics, all the menus and everything works fine, properly, without stack or any problem. It didn't need and CID unlock or anything, I had just to follow the instructions the program gave me.
The link above is in thai, but mainly the procedure is the following:
1. download the program (unrar it to the folder you want)
2. Backup all your important data from the Prophet
3. Run "Clear Storage" program on your device, wait for soft reset
4. Tap the screen once to get to the "Align" procedure, but stop here (cross will be shown in the middle)
4. attach your Prophet to the PC with active sync (cable!)
5. Cancel the Active sync recognizing procedure (anyway, Active Sync will establish the connection)
6. Now start the program from PC called "UPGRADE_ROM.bat"
7. Wait, give it the time to install ext.rom and everything
8. Hard reset your device (Push at a time: camera, conn.comm buttons and reset with the stylus, hold on on camera a connection button, then push the green phone button)
and it's done. The only disatvantage is that it installs a lot of quite unusuable program, too, but it's not annoying at all. If you install Spb pocket plus and Pocket informant, you're done, no need for these progs (more or less).

minor glitches

My upgrade hanged before the second reboot, and everything looks OK but I keep getting this annoying error.

Big problem IN HTC Touch

Hello all
I have recently bought HTC touch ...
Is it good PDA ? can I install Fm radio ( listen with out connecting to internet)
what about gps ...can I update my radio rom to use it and to make it built in
----------------
my current problem
I have tried to unlock rom (by using ELF_USPL-v1)
in final step (that screen has got blank (white) screen) and when progressbar in my pocket pc come to 100% it restarted automatic and I have seen this messege while locking (attached)
some time become 2% in progressbar and restart automaticly
then I connect it with computer and I have stack with my computer when I run Microsoft ActiveSync last version..so I ended it and all steps ok
But finally...
I tried to update with same rom I have failed
and see this messege again
I tried also this rom
\Touch_1.11.707.1B_4mbPagepool_BigStorage that gives me 15 mb extra
same problem
I tried Cert_SPCS.cab & EnableRapi.cab Unlockers in my ppc and still same problem I cannot update the rom
PLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSE
HELP ME !!!
The only way that I know of to get music on your Touch is to load up an expansion memory card or to stream tunes from the net over cellular.
As far as GPS goes, I don't believe the Touch has this feature built in, so you may have to go with a bluetooth GPS for the time being.
I'm not familiar with the upgrade procedures for ROM flashing on the Touch, however I imagine that you first need to obtain an Activesync connection first, then begin flashing. You may want to check up on the wiki and read any step by step instructions that may be there on flashing your phone.
Good luck and cheers!

Rescued Prophet (aka Happy Unbricking)

I am posting this here since there seems to be way too many threads around here all saying the same thing diffently yet in NO clear way that everyone can understand. I spent 2 days trying to recoved a Prophet from a bad flash.
Symptoms
Prophet stuck in Bootloaded (Tri Color Screen)
Prophet stuck in 2nd Splash (Usually Your providers Splashcreen)
Solution Read as (This is what I did to fix it)
Download a WM5 Prophet\Wizard Official Rom (I still own a Wizard so I used the K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship rom, the devices are very similiar concerning chipsets with the hardware keyboard seeming to be the biggest difference)
Extract the Rom (if it is distributed in an exe format with a tool like Winrar or 7zip)
Download the Prophet Tools Light package and extract to any folder . This contains both G3 and G4 RUU's (I can confirm this worked on a G4 Device)
Place the Official nk.nbf in the \Utils\Flash folder
Drop the phone into bootloader (Tri Color Screen) mode and connect to PC via usb.
Allow a few seconds for the usb connection to settle and run the RUU specific to your device.
DO NOT TOUCH the device or PC at this point. If your pc is a tad slow, go make some coffee and watch an episode of Big Bang Theory
This should now give you a shiny new (or old ) rom that is bootable which will allow you to upgrade your Prophet to any of the pretty WM 6.1 roms available.
Just a little tip:
If you are worried about messing up the device again use Alternate "Lazy tool" by dioxda. Its easy and it works !
I couldnt make this process any clearer if I tried
heeey...sorry but after this my prophet go death... i cant turn it on, and i dont know how but it seems that i cant charge it no more...

Strange this worked perfectly for me, but when I tried updating to a different rom I got the same problem you are facing now. Just a quick flash on the screen and blue and red LED flash. If I plug it in it just sits there flashing the whole time. I am looking into this as soon as I get a solution I will post it here. Any help guys ?

If at any stage your Prophet fails to start properly or can only enter bootloader follow this:
* Download and install the latest version of ActiveSync (Google for it)
* Download and unzip an AKU2.2 (No Vendor) ROM for the Prophet-any AKU 2.2 will do-from [here | ftp://xda:[email protected]_NVID.exe] or [here | http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...=Prophet_ROMs]
* Within ActiveSync DISABLE connect through USB (Tools->Connection Settings->Uncheck Allow Connect through USB)
* Put the Prophet into bootloader mode (hold the camera button and insert the stylus into the larger hole next to the power socket)
* Plug the Prophet in via USB
* Run the RUU specific to your device (G3 or G4) from the AKU2.2 folder. If there is only one RUU, use that.
* When it has finished: disconnect the Prophet, and then re-enable the connect through USB in actyivesync before reconnecting the device.
==> if success, will going back into WM5 and then u can use the Lazzy Tool, look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547
choose WM 6.1 ROM, after u doing that step, u already done with the WM 6.1 SEMOGA SUKSES!
yes it works again ...
Help, please?
Hi guys,
I have a slightly different problem. When I turn on my Prophet, it is in bootloader mode, so I take out the battery, leave for 3 seconds, put the battery back in, turn on the Prohpet.
Bootloader is displayed
Plug into PC with Active Sync 4.5 running (USB disabled)
Windows makes the 'new hardware connected' sound
RUU shows USB in bottom corner
Run the NVID no vender ROM,
Agree to first screen
Agree to second screen
Click Next
Prophet turns off
Windows makes the 'hardware disconnected' sound
Argh
No Prophet, no phone - incommunicado!
When I turn the prophet on now, I just get the bootloader, then it turns itself off after 10 seconds.
Could it be a low battery? - How do I charge it? I have left it plugged in to the power all night!!!
Could it be a faulty phone? - I have been having random resets over the past 3 weeks or so and thought that it was the WM6.1 rom installed, so was trying to put WM5 back on to see if that helps. - I am beginning to think there may be something wrong with the device?
I am trying a few more things from this forum before giving up and buying a new windows smartphone!
Any help would be apreciated!
Regards Mike
Guess it could be a power issue. - I got further just now by using a powered cradle instead of just a usb cable, but still reset at 80% complete. Will leave the phone charging using a wall charger only for an hour and see how i get on with that!
Its Fixed!
Ok,
So it turned out to be a low battery. - I charged the Prophet up for 1 hour and then ran the re-flash and it worked perfectly.
Now I just need to get the Orange rom back on it so its back to normal - Not faffing with WM6.1 - will stick to WM5 as its much quicker and works!
Maybe I was a bit too fast in posting the problem!
Thanks
Mike.

I feel like an idiot :(((

I recently (few days ago) bought my S710 (a.k.a. Vox) and it came with the WM5. So I found this forum nad Dr.Gonzo's thread about WM6.1 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=384129), DL-ed the necessery sofware and followed the instructions (which seem to me like a peace of cake )
For some unknown reason I cannot finish the flashing of WM6.1, when I have to run the RUU I start the instalation, and after a minute or so (when the progress meter appears) the software says that the device is not connected. I tried this several times, always with the same problem.
what am I doing wrong? Please help me, so I don't feel like described in the subject of this thread.
P.S. and sorry if I made any gramatical errors, english is not my native language.

you should firstly uspl your htc s710!(first treath) do do this its necesary that you app unlock your vox(as described in uspl treath) then you can update to any rom!(made for your device!)
...let me explain...
Like in the manual, first I rebooted (hardware reset) the device, then run SDA application unlock, soft reset, copied the necessery files to the root directory, run heret.exe through the .bat file.
the penguin appears on the screen for a short time, then the screen goes dim (like described). this is the moment I should start RUU, which I do, but one of 2 things happen:
1) either the RUU doesn't even recognize the device, and reports to check USB cable. The screen remains dimmed,
2) or it recognizes it, shows the USPL-vox on the device and starts update. At the very begining of update (zero or two %), it says that the device is not connected. the vox screen shows some info, and it's three-colored - blue, green, red (if I remember correctly). the RUU software exits, and then I hardware reser the device, to make it functional, but still with WM5.
what am I doing wrong?
EDIT: It's actually WM6, I needed a program to tell me that
Seems like your USB port on the PC is not working properly with the Vox. Try another Port or better an other PC to execute these tasks.
Could also be the cable - this may be easier to change.
I don't think that is possible, it's the same cable I use for connecting through ActiveSync and it works flawslessly. Any other ideas?
it's a standard USB-miniUSB cable I use for my old motorola mpx200 and my camera, don't beleive there can be a problem there?
Just try it - AS transfers a few bytes - a ROM is several MB. This is no proof.
Windows (ROM Update) also talks to the USB port in a different way than AS, so why not eliminating all parts that are outside the device (you have no other choice anyway).
- new/other USB cable
- new/other USB port
- new/other USB controler (e.g. other PC)
Can you not upgrade new rom from htc site?

[HD2 + S2U2] Problems with receiving calls

Two days ago I was forced to do HR and installing everything from the beginning (including a program S2U2). Previously this program had a perfect set up there that everything worked as it should. Unfortunately, after HR had to set options from scratch since it abolished the settings file.
And here the problems begin ... see if I have locked the phone S2U2 program and comes to me is a combination of:
first screen (turns and shows the caller's picture) inform me of this after about 3-5 seconds
second ring with the vibration is also included in the time (despite setting a ringtone + vibration)
thirdly, when I answer a call by sliding it all hangs ... slider is not working, the game is still ringing, vibration "beeps", the keys to lock the phone (along with the key with a green handset). Only one I can turn off the phone by removing the battery.
And what is strange when you restart your phone, such a combination is not recorded in the history of the device (as if it was not at all).
What can I do about this? Do you have any solution?
PS. Just please do not force me to re-HR (the latter has already resulted in almost two days removed from the life of uploading and installing everything back on the phone)
After several hours of testing anything new did not work.
And I tried off the SENSE (on a clean windows), enabled SENSE but uninstall S2U2 still the same: when I receive a call the screen locks up and I can not in any way to answer this connection (shown a picture of the caller and a ringtone that lasts indefinitely until the remove the battery) ... Sometimes when I set S2U2 slider can receive and answer the call even talk during conversations, but everything is blocked and only helps to remove the battery.
I also noticed that it stopped working light sensor which is not to extinguish the screen ...
OS: 5.2.21869
Manila: 2.5.19211619.0
ROM: 1.48.479.1 WWE
Radio: 2.05.51.05_2
are you still on official 1.48 rom? i suggest you to upgrade to a newer rom and, if you go for a custom rom, make a task 29 before that. I think there is not better option, sorry. btw, it is only my opinion. good luck.
You think so?
Previously (before HR) also had the same ROM, the same programs installed and everything worked well.
Or is it a problem or some settings SENSE software like S2U2, BSB Tweaks, XT Hacks2 etc. ...??
Well, but if only to help it load a new ROM to install the new Windows wchciałbym 6.5.x, the new ROM, the new SENSE etc ...
Can you describe the order in which what can I do?

are you using xt hacks2? leave that program, it may be the cause of your problems. still, you need to upgrade
i cannot guide you step by step as i'm not so good in english, anyway, if you go for custom rom first you have to HSPL your device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
then you have to choose your rom, there are plenty out there, in the end you have to flash, it's not that complicated believe me, you will need 15 minute to do all these things. if you never flashed your phone you don't even need to perform a task 29 right now, just remember to do hard reset after you flashed the rom.
flash rom, radio, hspl are all done with same operations: plug phone to pc with activesync, launch exe files, wait
Ok I understand.
But in what order do I install it?
First install the ROM, next RADIO , then WINDOWS 6.5.3 (I have Windows 6.5) and HSPL?

windows mobile is already included in rom
1) HSPL
2) RAdio, this step depends on what custom rom you pick, there are custom rom with radio included, others without the radio (in this case you have to install suggested radio), see the rom thread for more informations
2) Flash rom
3) hard reset
take a look here, there is a tutorial for noobs
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
easier way? install a stock rom 1.66, you don't have to HSPL and worry about which radio choose, it is all included
my GF has the same prob on her HTC mega (touch 2)!
on mine HD2, all works fine....
