Hello!
I had been using Helmi_UNI_AKU3.5_v1.3 for a while, today i tried to flash WM6_TrueNeytral rom and now my pda is dead. Before that i enabled the RAPI using the enableRapi cab, as my pc kept on saying that "Cannot copy files". But after enabling rapi, i tried again and i was flashing WM6_TrueNeytral rom, half way thru flash(after creation of partition's), i got some error message [some lame win error- i am using win xp xp2). And now my PDA is not working.
I had a some prob before when i had tried to upgrade Phorpeth IVVV, but i used HELMI rom to repair and overcome the problem...
Please tell me an GENRIC version of ROM which i can use to repair it.

I would suggest restoring your Doc table with MTTY, then upgrade your BootLoader version if you have not done this allready and re-flash the rom of your choice.

I think you are on the wrong forum.
universal is NOT the name of universal rom versions for all ppc's, but rather one particulair kind of ppc.

Wout
thanks

Have you tried installing one of JWright's ROM's?
Also, I have never heard of any of the ROM's that you are trying - I do know that you are using a Universal (since its called the PU10), so thats not the issue.
Additionally, try a different computer and cable - they may be causing the problems
i JUST BOUGHT A NEW O2 EXEC, AND TRIED MY BEST TO UNLOCK cid AND SIM, O2 APPARENTLY SHIP THEM UNLOCKED, SO I TRIED AND IT WAS. TRIED TO cid UNLOCK BUT NO LUCK KEPT GIVING ERRORS. SO I BEGUN THE INSTALL CROSSBOW LATEST, AND IT THEN WAS STUCK ON O2 SPLASH SCREEN, TRIED TO REFLASH WITH THINGONASTRING, NOW ITS STUCK ON BOOTLOADER, SAYING V2.01 AT BOTTOM AND SERIAL OR USB (WHEN CONNECTED), I HAVE LOOKED AND TRIED ALL OPTIONS, I TRIED UNI_EXTBOOTLOADER, AND THE OTHER ONE WHEN I WAS STUCK IN SPLASH SCREEN. NOTHING IS WORKING, THEN I TRIED TO SEE IF I COULD INSTALL OFF CD WITH O2 EXEC, BUT CANNOT FIND RUU. THE ONLY WAY I CAN NOW GET INTO BOOTLOADER IS FIRAT ATTACHING THE USB CABLE THEN BOOTLOADING, I CANNOT DO IT WIHOUT USB CONNECTED, BUT IF I TOOK THE USB OUT AFTER I HAVE GOT IT INTO BOOTLOADER, IT STILL STAYS ON. WHEN I ALSO PRESS THE RESET WHILST USB CONNECTED, THE LIGHT ON O2 EXEC FLASHES RED EACH TIME PRESSED?
ANY HELP WOULD BE GRATEFULL.... COULD THIS BE VISTA??? AS THATS THE OS I USE.
Please help, this is supposed to be a christmas present... i just couldn't help myself!!!!

Hi vistar,
Hopefully, you will have it sorted out by Christmas!
Yes, it is Vista problem and you need to change the USB Vista driver in your PC to XP driver.
I don't mean changing the Windows Mobile Device Center to Active Sync 4.5!
But the USB drivers. Look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313001
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader
I believe that the first post should solve your problem. If not try the others. Basically, in Device Manager of your PC, the USB driver should be the old XP driver dated 2004!
Any other year won't do you good!
Merry Christmas!
Happy New Year!
KOR!
It is highly recommended NOT to use Vista ... even with the proposed driver patch.
I have developed a Radio ROM issue because of this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347375
If you are using Vista, it is highly recommended for you to use Virtualisation and install XP.
I have been using XP under VMware forever without problems as far as flashing my Qtek is concerned ... until my Vista mis-adventure that is. I know that VMWare is not free, but you may want to give http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/virtualpc/default.mspx a try.
I flash my two Universal at least once a day under Vista with no problems at all.
Flashing Radio, CE ROM and ExtROM with Vista hasn't created any problem for me.
Vista like XP automatically install latest update from Microsoft site, this update also includes drivers too.
Just before flashing make sure that your old 2004 driver is not changed to the latest 2006 or 2007 driver!
That's all folks,
KOR!
will try the threads above thanks, i have tried in vista, and also i use vmware too, with xp pro spâ. which seems to work better but get error ăđă, radio update error, i think i have wiped the radio??? as when the first screen comes up it says:

Radio: 2.?.??
EXT Rom: 2.2.??
Bla bla: 2.2.??
I cant remember what numbers came up, but it was blank at top and version numbers at bottom.
any help would be grateful
ok i got it to work , through vmware, i ran PsiDOC_WM5_20041_Taster, which worked think its WM̀ still but its back on, I want WM̉ though, i'll try again.. some advice wouldn't go a miss. thanks.
Note: If anyone has problems blame vista..... Good OS, Bad PDA Partner...
ok every rom i try fails with the following: Error 114, Radio Rom Upgrade error.
why is this??? i have looked through the wiki and forum, people have had this problem before, but no answers.
I have this when WM5 loads up,
1.09.00
42.42.p8
2.00.41 WWE
and bootloader v2.01 (G4)
just incase this info is needed.
thanks, i will leave it on WM5 till an answer is given, preferably before christmas...lol.

If you have tried all the links I have given, you could have easily upgraded the ROM to Windows Mobile 6.
Read carefully, my above post #3.
Did you know that you could just flash the CE ROM (Main ROM), if the Radio is not flashing.
KOR!
KOR support center !!!
How do i Flash that alone? do i just remove the radio file from the WM6 folder and run RUU again??? just to confirm...
Thanks M8 much appreciated.

Read the four links, I have given you.
1. nk.nbf (CE ROM - Main ROM)
2. ms_.nbf (Extended ROM - Storage ROM)
3. radio_.nbf (Radio ROM)
If the ROM is in .exe format, than excute the ROM without hooking your universal to the PC. In the temporary folder, you will find all the files.
Read,
KOR!
sorry what i meant was how do i flash the files to the device??? i have all the files ready..
do i remove radio from folder then execute RRU? or do i use a different way?
Thanks for your support KOR!!!
the later worked perfectly on my G4 device, i ran the update without the device attached, put into bootloader, and found all files in temp directory, then removed the radio file. connected the bootloaded device, then ran the update, it worked straight away, only in xp/vmware though.
Thankyou..... I really mean that KOR..

Hi Vistar,
You are welcome. If you download the drivers from the first link in post #3, then you can use Vista without any problems to flash your device.
Just make sure that the driver is dated 2004 before flashing the device. Check the driver for the Portable Devices ->USB Disk in the Device Manager of your PC.
Best Regards,
KOR!
BTW, I did reply to your PM.

Perhaps that's because both your Unis are G3 - and mine is a G4.
Hi.
I have not posted much on this site, yet I have used it plenty of times. And first off I have to say "Thank you oh so very much" to everybody who frequent this site. Most of all I would like to thank the developers and rest of the crew that helps users on a daily basis.
I've had plenty of phones the last few years: 9090, 9100, Tytn and now Tytn II - all of which have been flashed - successfully I might add - with software and aid from you guys. (Ok, so my Tytn nearly ended up as a paperweight, but with some fancy maneuvers using the CE SDK from Microsoft I was able to use it as a PDA again)
Now, I am stuck. Really stuck. (Not saying I'm not to blame, but I am still stuck)
I've got a Tytn II (The P4550 HTC Kaiser 120 I believe). A few weeks back I flashed this with Alex's Home ROM (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Alex's ROMs). At the time I was running Radio 1.27.12.11, and continued to use it after the Alex flash.
That worked perfectly.
But being interested in always trying new stuff I yesterday decided to flash Alex.v5.WM61.HTC.302.UltraClean.ROM.beta2. And it really went bad.
I studied up on many postings (obviously not enough) and started the process:
#1: Hooked up the pda to my computer
#2: HardSPL v1
#3: Tri-Color mode and activesync grey
#4: Started the upgrade with KaiserCustomRUU.exe
Everything went smoothly until it hit 99% - there it stuck and the program ended with a communication error. My computer runs Vista (yes, I know. I wont even consider flashing another phone using Vista), but it has worked flawlessly 25-30 times before.
Anyways, what happened when I tried to recover was that the phone went into tri-color mode. Needless to say it was unable to recover. After much back and forth I reinstalled an old laptop with XP (as mtty does not work on Vista) and was able to boot it back in to the OS using a walk trough from this site - cudos to Laurentius26 for the post)
Anyways - it came back. But since it failed the flash I tried it again to make sure it finished properly. What I did was flash back the Alex Home ROM I had in the first place - that worked. Then I flashed back the 1.27.12.11 Radio ROM - which failed - seriously.
It hung on 17% and when reset it would only boot to tri-color. And this is where I am now.
Every time the phone resets it boots to tri-color. I've done and redone the mtty (with and without the task 28), but it stops in tri-color mode. If I at that point hook it up to mtty and issue the boot command it will boot properly, but thats kinda annoying - having to carry with me a XP laptop for each time I have to reset the phone. (Ive also tried the set 14 0 when the phone is in this state, but it will still only boot to tri-color)
So - what now?
I've tried flashing the RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship, but it stops with 294 - invalid vendor id. I've tried flashing the same ROM with HardSPL installed - no vender id error but it fails at 16%.
In desperation I've tried HTC_Kaiser_NL_ROM_1.56.404.6_Radio_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.17_Ship, but this also fails at 16%.
I've studied many a post on this site, but have so far been unable to recover from this error.
Is there any hope of regain the much needed functionality of normal booting?
Hopefully there is.
Thanks in advance.
Can you try these?

Thank you kindly Leo, this was much appreciated.
Now for a question if you have the time: Since I started this process yesterday I have not been able to flash a Radio rom properly. It stops on 17% or 99% and quits with communication error. Any ideas?
And can I trust that my phone now works?
Cool...., thank you

But of course - now that I know how to reset.
One comment: I absolutely love the Palm SMS program added by Alex in his rom. You know if this is manually installable?
This is threaded SMS isn't?
That's default in WM6.1.
But if it's a seperate program there must be a cab out there.
I will have a look if it's that good you say!

Well, good is subjective ... but I love it.
As for the updating: halted on 16% - communication error.
*Looks around - "Where's my mtty"
How can I get pass these updating issues?
Which OS do you have on your desktop?
Do you have an original branded HTC device?
Try to flash a factory (shipped, not cooked) rom first!
Don't use a usb hub between your device and the pc, but use a straight connection.
See if there are applications running on your desktop.
Disable your Firewall for example...
And please take your storage card out.
Some tips....

And all good tips Leo.
OS: Windows XP SP2. Freshly installed. Only Activesync 4.5 added.
HTC: Is orignial. Patched a few times using HardSPL
Original rom: As mentioned above I've tried a couple of them, but both ending in invalid vender id.
And no usb hub present.
Another comment - the flashing done today and yesterday has been done from two different xp computers - but with same result.

No need for firewall as there are no nic's. And also no applications.

Yup - that one has been tested - fails with invalid vender id.
Also tried flashing that rom with HardSPL - comm. error.
And no, I have not tried the Custom RUU. Will for sure try that now.
The Custom RUU is the same file that is included with your 6.1 Rom isn't it? If so I have used it with your ROM.
Do you think I should try it with another?
Yes... try with another shipped ROM please?

Tried custom ruu with Radio 1.27.12.17.
Same results as other flashes - halts at 95%.
Seems like OS flashing hangs at 17% and Radio at 95%.
Use one more time MTTY, clear all FATS and I've send you a PM.

If you're getting an invalid vendor id it sounds like your hardspl or superCID isn't working correctly. Before going any further it's probably best to go to your bootloader screen and check that hardspl is still installed.
After that, I'd try flashing from the SD card.
Good point ach2, but when launching HardSPL and starting the update it lists the correct data on the bootscreen (Jumpspl or something equivavlent to that)
Leo: Looking around xda I found an article about dumping the ROM from another device. In the same thread I found a link to dumped original ROM. I patched that and it worked like a charm.
My PDA came back to its original state.
After arriving home just now I thought I would give your ROM another go, but same result - stuck at 16% (With HardSPL and Custom RUU)
What can cause this?
Ok so I have a HTC Touch Pro and eveytime i try to Flash my rom using the HARDSPL, I get a communication error that says, The Update utility cannot connect to your phone. The phone is active sync'd and connected. So I can't figure out what is going on. I hard reset thinking that would help but it didn't. Some one please help me, I just want my phone to run correctly with a new rom and this is driving me absolutely insane.
does it happen when you try to hard spl? or when you try flashing a rom after a hard spl

Yeah its in HARDSPL but it wouldn't even let me do a stock rom (for ****s and giggles i tried this)...never thought about the firewall ill be home in an hour and will try it out...let you know how it goes thanks for the response
I was wishing that it was that... I disabled my antivirus and my windows firewall was already off...any more ideas? Just to give you guys some facts
1. Touch Pro
2. Trying to use HardSPL to unlock my phone
3. When i try to run it recognizes what rom version I have and tells me what im updating to.
4.I hit next and it goes to the progress bar on the screen.
5. Nothing happens on my phone
6. Then hardspl errors out
???

Hi again
I'm not that familiar with HardSPL, but .. do you need to run it every time you flash , or is it only the first time needed ?
And another tought ran through my mind : are you connecting your device directly to your PC, or via a USB-hub ? Hubs tend to be a problem in such ocassions ...
Dirk
thanks again for an answer dirk...You need hardspl the first time only, from there on you can just flash roms...I am also not using a hub...
Two quick notes... 1. I tried to use the cord that came with it to power an external hard drive and it didnt work...then i switched it to my 6700 mini usb and the hard drive did work. So I'll try that cord with my phone.
2. im going to try to do it on one of my clients computers also tonight.
I post back with results....
Thanks again
Kind of sounds like you don't have Hardspl on it. What does it say when you go into bootloader? GSM or CDMA Touch Pro ?
Ok it comes up with tri color bars for a half second then says...
Loading...
No image file!
Than it goes back to the tri color screen and reads as follows...
Security Unlocked
Raph800
SPL-0.37.0000
MicroP-Hermann (LED) V0C85
MicroP-Hermann (KEY) V0685
PSOC-Raph STAGE_EVT v20
Hope this helps!
Also its a CDMA... Sprint Touch Pro
Anyone have something similar happen to them while flashing?
After doing a bunch of reading I understand that the HardSPL didn't work...but im not sure what im doing wrong. I think im messing up the steps somehow?

Hi again
I don't think you're messing up steps... it looks more like messing up systems. Are you sure the ROM you want to install suits your CDMA-phone ? There are some basic differences between GSM and CDMA...

Attached you find all you need to flash cooked ROMs on your HTC Snap 511 (Willow).
The sspl/hardspl are confirmed to work fine on the HTC Willow platform (HTC Snap 511).
It will not work on the HTC Maple platform (Dash3G). Running this sspl on a Dash3G will definitely brick it. Also the HTC CEDAR platform (Ozone) is not supported. For the Dash3G and Ozone I have already developed a sspl/hardspl.
The packages contains a SSPL, HardSPL, patched ROM updater and the original Snap S511 SPL. The package is based on SPL v0.34
Instructions:
1. remove SD and SIM cards (don't forget otherwise the sspl is likely not to work!!)
2. connect your device to your pc with a USB cable and wait until it is synced
3. extract the file "Snap S511 HardSPL by JockyW.zip" and execute "auto.bat"
4. follow all instructions given on screen: first the sspl is copied to the device and executed. You must confirm running JumpSPL on the device: first time you must click Yes to allow it to run, you also must click the trackball to continue execution of JumpSPL. The device display will turn dark and after that the romupdate tool will install the hardspl on your device. (the identification string in the tri-color bootloader screen is "0.34.Hard")
5. to test the sspl and the hardspl you can flash a splash screen
Once the HardSPL is installed on your device you can flash any cooked or original ROM.
A donation for my work would be highly appreciated
Have fun,
JockyW
PS: Moderators please make this a sticky. Thanks.

Donation has been sent. Thank you for this.
Good work!!!!
Thanks Jocky, sending you good vibes and tips!
Once we install the hardSLP on the sprint snap, which cooked roms can we use? Are we going to need one specially cooked for the snap 511?

Raleigh, NC. My next vacation isn't till the week of Christmas though, so maybe someone else can step up in the meantime. I'll also be out of the office again for a week in the spring.
first off, thanks so much to Jocky and Ookba for all the work you guys do! but i'm having some issues. i've dont a lot of searching on here and i can't find a solution hopefully someone can help me. i can't get the hardspl to run successfully.
my bootloader screen shows this:
CEDA200
SPL-0.34.0000
MicroP-Willow#C (LED) v58B
i'm using windows 7 (through VMWare on my iMac), everything seems fine until the pop up on the phone, i click the button (the not really a trackball button) and the screen goes black, i lose all connectivity through WMDC and the Rom Utility gets error 266.
If i don't click when the pop up shows on the phone, the Rom Utility will show and then the phone will go into the bootloader with USB written in the white area then i get the error 266 again.
of course there's no sim because it's a Sprint s511, and the sd card is always removed.
what can i do? i'd really love to get 6.5 on there, but i'm at a loss.
The fact that your running on a MAC with VMWare makes me think the issue could be in the connection...
Im not even sure if Win7 works, i could be wrong however. You wouldnt happen to know of anyone that has a WinXP machine would you?
I did try in vmware with XP and Activesync, but it did the same things. I have a Dell that I was gonna make a hackintosh, but I'm gonna throw xp on it and try using that machine. I was thinking it was the vmware too, i guess i just wanted one of you guys (you know, the one's with a clue! LOL) to confirm.
I applied the HardSPL to my snap using Windows 7 and everything went well

Thats what it sounds like... Good to know it works on Win7 though SPIK3.
Thanks Black_V!per for responding and all. I did finally get it going! I set up the dell with XP and it actually didn't work at first. I had originally unRARed the package on the iMac and just copied the unarchived folder over to the XP machine, thinking it would save me a download, but it didn't work. So i just dl'd an RAR utility for windows and unpacked the RAR on the xp machine and it worked perfect. originally the Rom Updater said it couldn't find the nbh file. all's well! And i'm loving 6.5!!
Thanks again Jocky and Ookba!!!

Must have corrupted during the download... Havent seen that since my 56k-days.
Glad to hear that!
First off, I appreciate everyone's hard work throughout this whole process.
Unfortunately I am running into a problem. The auto.bat is able to copy the JumpSPL file and the .nb file to my phone just fine. However once the Rom Update Utility starts the flashing process, the phone shuts off.
I did a hard reset to my phone, and went through the process again. The JumpSPL notice popped up on the screen, but then crashed when I hit OK. I know it crashed because the Windows Error Reporting popped up (which apparently I had disabled before I did the hard reset, so I never was able to tell if it was still running).
So then I manually ran the JumpSPL file. This time the memory box popped up, so I hit OK with the Jump Address at the default 0x00000000. It then asked which SPL file I wanted to use. I chose the .nb that was copied over. Then the Windows Error Reporting screen showed up again.
I'm not sure what is going on, but hopefully the details I just provided will allow someone to figure something out. Thanks.
BTW: My phone is a Sprint HTC Snap S511, and my splash screen is the same as the one posted before:
CEDA200
SPL-0.34.0000
MicroP-Willow#C (LED) v58B

Is your phone applications unlocked? When I did mine it gave me a bunch of errors because it wasn't applications unlocked. Also make sure you remove your memory stick.

How would I go about checking this?
I remember on my Samsung Ace, before the 6.1 update, I had to install an "application unlocker" that allowed unsigned programs to install. Is this the same thing with the Snap? Also this is the Sprint version, so I don't have a Sim card, or anyway to typically "unlock" this phone.
EDIT: Ah, now I know what you mean. I found the SDA Application Unlock here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=563761
The Rom Update Utility finished successfully! Now to move on to the next step... Thank you SPIK3
No problem, glad I can help.
