Freeze on splashscreen

Hi,
My Typhoon phone is freezed on the splashscreen (Blue sky with Qtek).
I want to upgrade the ROM but at this step it don't connect to the laptop.
How can I put th ephone in bootloader mode ?
Thx

I didn't know that Tornado and the Typhoon are the same.
Well try this, Turn off the phone, Press the Camera Key and Insert the USB Cable, and that will get you to the Bootloader Mode
or
Why don't you just try a Hard Reset first and see what will happen.
Goodluck.
Please transfer this on the Typhoon Category. Thanks

My device is a Tornado. (I dont know why I said Typhoon)
Now I am in bootloader mode. How can i upgrade the ROM ?
Thx.

Well Done ! I put my Tornado in bootloader mode. I have upgraded the ROM.
I am waiting for the result.

Help needed phone doesn´t not boot anymore

Hi,
I have tryed to upgrade my rom to a new version (Prophet WM5 AKU3.2 v3231). Followed the stept correctly, however my phone does not boot anymore. It gets stuck in the qtek logo (when it displays the AKU version i´ve got) and the sceen gets all shacky.
An addictional problem is because it is stuck at that point it does not connect to my computer....
What can I do to fix this, any good suggestions
Thank,
Sebastiaan

You should be able to enter bootloader mode by pressing and holding the camera button while you power on your phone. On the bottom left, you should then see "USB" - connect it to the PC and flash it again.
Had to do this yesterday after flashing failed.

thanks it worked

Upload a Old ROM

Can someone upload an old ROM for the prophet? I can't start up my prophet, but I've got it in bootloader. So I nedd a little bit old ROM so I can install on it.
Understand?
Thanks!

Look for the first link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1166927&postcount=2

Are this ROM old ROM?

Not really old but if your phone stuck in bootloader this one is ok

I can't make it, it says that i should connect to Active Sync, and how im I suppose to do that?

Go in bootloader (screen with 3 coulours) by Hold down the camera button and reset the device. (Boot Loader Mode is: Press Camara + Soft Reset, then release soft reset and keep pressing camara button till appear the Boot Loader.)
When you are in bootloader logicaly your PC must detect the Prophet, then run the update
Sorry for my bad English but I'm Franch

Yes i've got it in bootloader, and its stands USB on the PPC screen. But it aint the Active Sync that finds it, it says "Uknoknown Unit" or something when i connect them together..

Active Sync isn't a problem, update work or there is an error message?

In right corner down on the PC sreen it comes up "A unkknown Device connected" or something like that, nothing more is happening..??

It sayd that it can't recognize the unit..

In bootloader mode, on connecting via usb ,if u r getting 'USB' written on left down corner of ppc then ur ppc can be flashed via proper RUU and nk.nbf
Be sure that this nk.nbf dont include ipl/spl parts for risk free flashing and for not getting brick device.
thanx
nandlal

Im trying to flash a ROM with that, but it coming up on the screen that "Not connected". It's standing that i nedd to connect with Active SYnc!!

could somebody upload an ipl/spl lower than 2.09 or higher but not 2.09^^
rest doesn't matter language english or german would be good...

I-Mate Jam Bootloader & Connection error!

Hello XDA Nice Team !
By mistaken i wrote some file to my bootloader in my I-Mate Jam ..
That was after using the bad ROM : 2.03
it's the worst cooked version i saw !
Now my bootloader mode is working .. but no way to connect to PC with USB port ..
My computer does not recognize my Magican when plugged in bootloader mode anymore!
Bootloader Ver: 1.0
is there any way to fix or upgrade or restore original bootloader
Now i cant upgrade or downgrade my magican by any method
Noway to use successful connection with any roomupdate utility
Please help me to fix or restore my bootloader!
Thanks to any one read or replay or try to help or help me to resolve my problem
XDA lover

i'm sorry that happened mate...
i've had success with flash-from-bootloader attempts before, both on my Magician, when i accidentally flashed off of Vista and it'd enter the bootloader every week or on a reset using the reset hole, and also on my Wizard when i ignored warnings from WM5torage and it'd only enter the bootloader
what precisely happens when you connect to the PC, allow USB connections in AS/MDC, and let the phone enter bootloader however it does? i can just flash a rom from there, but i won't (iirc) get any reports of as recognising the device...

My experience:
1- when i plug my sd card into my jam .. usb not recognized in bootloader mood !!
2- when i use puty or roomupdate it reaches to USB> then when i type any command it does not respond !
3- i could do something .. i let my phone bootup and this i-mate logon screen stays 4ever .. i connected my ppc to pc and i could explre my imate by activesync ...
i could reach something .. when i explore my phone and remove everything from startup folder .. my phone boots .. and i can see start botton .. no touch alignment comes .. and everything works .. but.. screen is virtually reversed .. i can see the OK botton but i must click on the facing area and it be clicked ..
i think i executed some wrong hard SPL to my phone ant that happened >
is there any way to resolve this problem?
is there any way to erase flash on my I-Mate Jam????
is there any way flash my phone?
i also have prepaid JAFWM with pkey and USB cable .. no BOX ..
Help please!

that's messed up... howsabout flashing it at the point when the phone boots up? if there's an AS connection there, then it may work... i'd flash to an official rom though

Same problem , PLS Help !!!
Thx for help

You should check USB connection I think...
Try plug your battery out of device and wait a moment (e.g.10 minutes) and try again,sometimes it will be fine when you did this.

If your magician isn't detected at ALL by your PC when plugging the USB cable into it (i mean, no new hardware; no unrecognized hardware; nothing is detected in your PC when you plug the USB cable), and unless you had previously made a SD backup of your entire Flash with this procedure ( http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianSDflash ), then your only option will be to build a JTAG diag cable:
Here are some general directions / ideias:

How to build/run the JTAG: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DeadBoot

Some interesting stuff for debugging problems: http://pda2u.ru/ptopic205.html
For sure cotulla has one built so to test his ROMs + bootloader - maybe he will be willing to give you some directions if you run into problems, and above all, give you a prepared .nb0 (with the bootloader file) for your magician, which i do not know if there's one out there, extracted from an original ROM.
Anyway, you can always try and do it for yourself using itsme utilities. Follow this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=218643

Keeper,you're awesome! I'm searching for JTAG,too

Dear xiaojin1985 ,
Thx for your help, But unfortunately i tried your solution but it dosnt work !

Dear Keeper,
Thanks too for your help,
and i think the solution for my problem is one of the solutions you says ( How to build/run the JTAG: ) ,
but the pictures is not available anymore , so pls can you get the pictures ?

All the pictures are in here:
http://s218.photobucket.com/albums/cc23/alex_beda/ and in attachment there's a .mth file with all the pics built-in.
Don't take it wrong what i'm about to say, but in all honesty if you can't figure this out yourself (digging up the internet for the missing pics), i would suggest that you shouldn't try this, since this ain't easy at ALL...
Just to give you some ideias, it will require you to adapt your magician test point signals (TDO;TDI; nRESET; etc,)seen on the magician pinout pic to what is said; solder very thin wires (best done with a small hot air tip); fixate the small dip switch (micro switch) to be always on; keep the USB connected...idk... plus alot of other small details which ain't easy to accomplish.
Personally i haven't tried this yet but for sure it would work
If you decide to go ahead, please post some results!

Connection error solution
this is my problem
hi all. A friend of mine gave me an S100, and after i played for a few days with it, i decided to update it's rom. A "country error" problem appeared,cause i have the greek version, so i ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe which completed (as showed 100% process). My (new) problem is that i cannot update anymore. Every time i enter boot menu, i ran the upgrade
(HTCMAG_ROM_WWE_O2.rar) following all the steps normally. When the device resets (so the upgrade is going to start), it's re-reseting again and showing ERROR 101 connection error. Any ideas?

Hey I came up with a solution, worked for my device hope it would w0rk for y0u either...
Anyhow, when it shows usb/cable at the top and radio version at bottom, Press and hold Contacts and calendar button and press Reset button with your stylus, this will hard reset your device and will bring your device alive...
looking forward for your reply...

i-Mate JAM hard reset
To perform a full reset
A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data and restores the Pocket PC Phone to its default settings. Programs installed at the factory remain, erasing all data that you have created and programs you have installed. Press and hold the power button, and then use the stylus to press the soft reset button at the same time. Be sure you have backed up all your data in a SD card or on your PC before performing a full reset.
