Killed my 8125

Well I guess I bricked mine ulness someone knows something I don't. I was doing a flash, running nothing else and XP did a memory dump and blue screen of death while 8125 was 54% done. Guess I have a paperweight now.

I am sure I'll get flamed for my post but thank God the Cingular ROM doesn't need an actual Active Sync connection. As long as you are in RBG bootloader screen and the USB comes on when you plug into the PPC, the factory ROM can repair the unit.

Very good I do remember reading that post from when I first joined here, guess I just panicked. I must mention however that none of the WM6 ROMS i have would flash only the stock one would.

When you have a bad flash you ALWAYS should go back to an official rom. This will guarentee that you get back to a complete IPL/SPL and Extended ROM. If a flash goes bad, any (and all of them) could be corrupted and flashing a custom rom won't help (since most all of the custom roms don't include any of those pieces).

Reboot your pc....
Your device should be in bootloader mode still
Connect and flash the same ROM....it should pick up right where it left off
If this doesn't work, flash your factory rom
As long as your device powers up....it's not bricked
The same thing happened to me once on my wife's laptop

Yeah this was on my company laptop. I was flashing Faria's RealThing for the 1 hundredth time.

OH GOD!! is my Uni dead? NO GSM

Dear All,
Please kindly help me out of this.
Yesterday, My phone started to develop the "NO GSM: symptoms. At first, the phone ioccasionally turned off after it couldn't connect to the 3G network. Today, after reading nearly all the post concerning this "No GSM" symptoms, I applied the Mtty tools to desparately try to bring my beloved Uni back to life.
I applied that mtty.. I tried to upgrade it by using the shipped rom.. yet it said country ID error.. I reverted to use the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe but the radio rom upgrade failed....
Are there any other solutions I can rescue my uni? I read it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350349 that Radio Rom upgrade may be done through a SD card but the ftp link is dead and I can't get any files from there.
I miss my Uni so so much that I think I would buy another one if there's no way to save it... Please kindly help. all my gratitude.

Hi,
Please consider a new battery.
As strange as it may sound, one of my MDA Pro's had similar symptoms with battery at 70%. Replacing the battery with a new one fixed it right away.
The symptoms were:
- less network signal
- random turning off of radio
- could not access phone settings
- radio crash when trying GPRS connection
Also, on my other MDA Pro, I had problems like this, but they were caused by radio ROM 1.18. I changed to 1.15 and everything is fine since.
It seems that aging batteries are a major problem for weird issues. Just buy a new one at ebay and dont start flashing as a fool, cause you can risk a brick.
Cheers,
vma

My battery is actually new... just bought it 2 weeks ago.. and I tried the phone with both my new and old batt. still no luck -_-
I can't flash any radio rom now... is my Uni certified dead?
Any help would be great.. thanks

Try charging the battery first in another universal if possible, if battery is ok, put it in and try again, read Wiki and check if you can go to boot loader mode, check whether pc recognising the Uni once on etc.,

Read everything and the computer recognised my Uni ... tried MTTY tools to reset all the DOC partition in my Uni yet no way to reflash my radio rom again

I think as long as PC is recognising, dont consider it as DEAD. Its very much alive and keep hopes.
as I read through this forum, Radio ROM flashing is the most risky thing and often takes longer.
If you are not already considering, try only flashing radio rom and do not club with extrom etc, try redownloading the ROM or try a different version from a different link, unless you are particular about the one you are trying.
Always use the original USB cable supplied with the Uni.
Enter BootLoader mode by pressing and holding the power button and backlight button whilst performing a reset with the stylus. Connect Unit to PC to the USB port directly and not through a USB HUB.
Start flash again..
All the best

From the problem behavior it seems your device got GSM locked, I'm afraid it's permanent. But at least try ...
1. Remove the SIM card
2. Must upgrade the bootloaded to 1.01 if it's a G3 (and not upgraded already).
3. Run the Buzz's CID unlocker tool and flash the radio (version 0.00) provided with the tool.
4. Do the HR and check the status

Stuck Doing ROM Update

Dear reader,
I bought a Qtek9000 when it had a original WM5 on it,
after my pall updated it to 6.0 (dont ask me what rom he used) he said

It doesn't matter what sim card i'll use, same result.

I was forgotten to plug my laptop to AC... and what happend..... Emtpy battery and failed update :'(

Hi. I have a huge problem with one HTC TYTN2 locked and software branded on ORANGE.
I have flashed many HTC devices but this one gives me a headache.

Any ideas ?
Thank you and Merry Christmas !!!

are you sure the radio and hard spl are not corrupted and that it isnt on that in. Have you tried flashing by SD card? any problems there?
Any ideas ?

Yes, I was going to suggest trying to flash from an SD card too.

have you install netcf 3.5?

[Q]Fuze undetected on any PC, just charges

I am in deep trouble here and could really use some help please. My ATT Fuze is not being detected by any PC and i have tried everything from different wires to changing everything on the fuze it self. Now my only option is to exchange it but i don't have the original OS because i am using NRGs Rom and hard SPL it about 4 months ago. Now to my question, is there anyway i can revert it to stock ROM and SPL with micro sdhc card? I need some steps please because i cant find a way to do it. Would i have to change the OS and the SPL to return if there is anyway please let me know.

First, what OS are you running on your PC.
Second, have you disabled/Enabled "enable faster data" in Settings/Connections/USB to PC?
Third, Have you deleted the partnership and tried to reestablish it?
Doesn't seem to be a warranty issue.

Fuze Reply
First of all thanks for your reply.
I have tried it on 4 different computer but unfortunately same result on vista and XP, on my phone i am using NRG july version rom.
I have disabled and enabled faster data in but doesn't seem to matter.
I tried everything, i reinstalled windows mobile device but doesn't seem to matter. When i ended the partnership it wasnt being detected after it or before it.
Cant i exchange it because its a faulty phone? Also can u please tell me if i can revert it to att stock rom and spl with a micro sdcard because i am going to buy a card reader. I really don't want to toss this phone and waste all that money please help!

Yes, you can revert via SD card.
Do Radio and ROM first, then do stock SPL last.
Rename each RAPHIMG.NBH (one at a time) on a FAT32 formated card 2gb or smaller.
Go into bootloader mode and it should flash from there.
I would test your USB connection after you flash back to stock ROM before you flash the stock SPL to see if it may have fixed your issue.

Huh
Thanks a lot man!
Now the hard part , why do u say a card 2gb or smaller?
So i can revort the SPL with a micro sdhc card also? can u tell me where i can find this stuff, i am really sorry for the trouble and would really appreciate it if you can tell me step by step because i am a noob
Hopefully ATT exchange it for the usb issues , gotta check with them after this. Thanks

I've heard that anything over 2 gb will cause an issue but I have done it from an 8gb card.
Start here for issues encountered.
Basically once you find your ROM Radio and SPL, extract the files so you can see the .NBH files for each.
1. Take the ROM file and rename it "RAPHIMG.nbh " without quotes.
2. Place it in the root of your storage card and enter bootloader mode (Volume Down + Reset), the phone will read the image file and begin to load it.
Do this for each file but wait until the first file has loaded.
Radio.nbh will be renamed to RAPHIMG.nbh
SPL.nbh will be renamed RAPHIMG.nbh
As one is done loading, remove it from starage card and put the next one on and repeat step 2.
Another thread regarding SPL.
I hope this helps you and sorry I don't have the time to walk you through it.
Just read first then you'll know what to expect.

my best guess is just in case the bootloader doesn't have drivers for SDHC cards... my x51v has drivers for SDHC in WM, but flashing requires SD cards because the bootloader doesn't read SDHC

revert SPL or no?
Hey thanks bruce!
One more question, should i revert the SPL even tho i changed the radio and os. When i go to ROM version it says 1.95 but is that the SPL? Also you think ATT will take the phone back with the phone not syncing reason or do i have to make up some other stuff up? O btw the 8gb kingston card worked fine for reverting it and it still doesnt detect the phone

To be safe I would revert the SPL as well.
The 1.95 is the ROM build base.
You want to revert back to stock SPL 1.90.
I can't second guess what AT&T will cover or not but you may want to "further your cause"....
Best of luck!!!

in my experience (my UK t-mob vario is back at repair right now) - DONT revert the SPL if you cant do it from the USB.
Obvisously you have a different setup to me, but when i tried to revert my phone to stock for exactly the same fault (no usb sync, regardless of pc or cable / phone rom, state etc etc) i managed to get the phone to refuse to boot due to a spl / rom difference. As i couldnt load from usb - i couldnt flash anything new, and as i had managed to overwrite hard spl - i couldnt flash what i wanted from the SD card! (if i could get the usb to work, i could fix it all - but as that was the problem i had to send it off fubar)
For some reason (god knows why!) it appears that t-mob are repairing my phone under warrenty despite the spl error but i wouldnt advise getting yourself in the same situation, as i was 100% expecting it to come straight back to me!
My personal advice is send it off with the correct rom, radio & splash screens (and remove security unlock if required) so the phone looks stock - the only difference will be the spl version. They probably wont notice!

1.90 or 1.95
Thx for the info guys, my new phone is coming and it took me about 2 to finally on its way. About the SPL, mine says 1.90 and that was when i first did the hard spl to change roms. What is the stock SPL 1.90 or 1.95? at loading it hows me 1.90 olinex i think...also i can change it if needed with my 8gb sdhc card or no?

I had a problem with my PC not detecting my fuze a few weeks ago. I found out it was my new firewall blocking the connection. I disabled the firewall and it worked like normal.

If it were me i would try to connect again after you flash the stock rom. If there was something wrong with the usb it still wont work. If it connects to activesync the maybe it was your ROM, or something else.
Just a suggestion
