Basically I have an O2 UK XDA IIs that I was trying to upgrade to the 1.40 ROM. It started fine but once it said it was starting the upgrade nothing happened and nothing changed on either screens except the device changed into bootloader mode which I understand is normal.
Now I cannot get it out of bootloader and I cannot upgrade. I've read the posts on fixing this but they do not work for me.
The main problem seems to be that while Windows sees a USB device connected it does not know what type it is so I cannot get a connection to ActiveSync. All of the tools I have found on this site require a connection to ActiveSync so I am stuck!!!
Please help ASAP!!!
It's now working - see my solution...
I just got it to work - YAAAH.
Yes, I had read all of wiki but could not find the solution for me. Then while I was reading some other posts this morning I came across someone that said they had removed their battery and then held the hard reset sequence for over 1 minute and then replaced the battery. Since I was desperate I thought it couldn't hurt so I tried it.
Strangely enough, that was the solution!!!!
I'm now successfully upgraded!!!!

I had the same problem
I have Qtek 2020i and I had like your problem before and while installing the same ROM from sonofon, but be happy, it is not a big deal, I just removed the battery until it erased everything left at the device (backup battery was completly empty) then I replaced the battery and reconnected the device to sync while power cable is plugged in and I tried to reinstall the same ROm and it is working find and perfect with me, I like the sonofon rom, it is really nice!!!
if you had further trouble dont hesitate to ask !
I hope that you solve your problem soon.
Hi, I have a working sonofon ROM for my Qtek 2020i. If you haven't sorted your issue out yet I'd be happy to send it you on CD. It works even on a previously failed installation.

I am assuming that Arrival has sorted the problem out by now but for future reference of others there is a simple way out.
Press and hold the following 3 buttons at the same time for about 3 seconds: Power, Action (D-Pad) and reset.
This puts the device into bootloader mode which is basically like DOS for the Alpine.
If that doesn't work, remove the battery until the backup battery runs out, place it back and put the device into bootlader mode as described above. The device can then be upgraded by connecting to the computer and running the update program.
Less crashing problems are likely if the device is connected to the mains at the same time.
Hello everyone,
I have problems updating my SPV M3000. I've been tryin' it for a month now but it just won't happen. Every Rom i download i get the same problem: I just follow the steps of the wizard. But when the installation begins, my device's screen flickers and then it looks like it starts to glow. At the same time my activesync connection drops. The PC gives the [ERROR 260] this makes sense because i lost the connection. Then i have to soft reset my phone. I have Sim and CID Unlocked the phone.
My current version is 1.3.1.13.
Can somebody please help me.
thnx,
Dennis
have you tried changing your use cable? Seems like it's the source of the trouble...

Have you tried flashing an "official" 2.xx rom?
--M
I did all of that... but still no succes.... Anybody have other solutions??
Thnx
Did you ever get your issue resolved?
I've got the same problem and I've tested my MDA with two seperate USB sync cables. Both sync with ActiveSync and actually transfer data with no issues, but I get the 260 error EVERY time.
Does anyone know if there is a MS service that needs to be running that maybe we're missing? I thought all of mine were, but might not be.
Any updated info would be WONDERFUL.
Read this, at the bottom of the file are the error-codes and try to use another USB-port (preffering at the BACK! of your PC)

Maybe try to use activesync 2,5 beta.
Actually, I have the most recent ActiveSync beta and all. And that nice ftp link doesn't work, which I've noticed seems to be the case most of the time.
Can I download that file elsewhere?
I've actually plugged the USB cable in every USB port I have to test that theory and still no-go.
I'm currently on the phone with T-Mobile PDA Tech Support ( BLECH! KILL ME NOW! )
If I get a solution I'll post it and a walkthrough on how to fix it.
Ok, so, just got off the phone with the T-Mobile PDA Tech Support people and here's the lowdown...
It's the phone itself. Somehow my phone is bugged, go figure. Sorry to break the news to the guy who started this thread, but hey, I'm getting a free T-Mobile Dash out of it
I decided to reflash my wizard after it continually getting slower and slower after a year. I haven't done it in awhile. It is already unlocked. I flashed the 1.05 rom and it was working. I was going to go up in steps ending with the touch rom. I flashed the wrong rom evidently and now am downgraded to 1.01 on spl/ipl and os 2.26.10.2. The wizard won't activate Activesync and I can't get any communication. I tried rebooting the pc and the wizard multiple times. Still nothing. Need something quick to fix this. Everytime I tried to launch a rom flash I get an error 206.

If it was already CID unlocked,there was no need to downgrade again 1.05,once CID unlocked will remain unlocked forever,unless you intentionally don't flash back the locking code back on to it.
Now try to get into Bootloaders (multicolor screen) hook up the phone with pc via usb cable and check small usb appear at the bottom of the bootloaders,if it appears then download the official stock rom and flash to recover back to the default status,then download the WST 4.2.2 tool and run the 'CID Action' button to verify the CID lock/unlock status of the phone.if its still CID unlocked then upgrade to any wm6 rom of your choice,otherwise perform the unlocking method again.If the usb doesn't appear,then you have a connectivity problem,check the usb cable or the mini usb port of the phone is faulty.Assuming you are doing on winXP.
"and check small usb appear at the bottom of the bootloaders..."
I don't understand what your talking about when you say bootloader. The bootloader is the ROM installation program is it not. How do you check an icon in that? If you mean system trays on the PC or PDA, no USB icon shows. I got no radio or sync services working. The OS is corrupted and operates extremely slow. I can't get any kind of communication between the PDA and PC. Not even through windows explorer (running XP). It's not the cable, I just used it to downgrade to 1.05 and it was working fine. It wasn't until I tried to upgrade to back up, and selected the wrong ROM off my USB storage, that it flashed the wrong ROM and caused all this. Mostly because I hate trying to remember what the longs string of digits mean on each ROM. Especially after I haven't looked at all the files and haven't done a flash in a year.
So no communication. That's the issue.
So does anyone else have any info? As I stated, I can't get any communication between the MDA and the PC. So I don't know how I can flash a stable ROM.
I repeat again,Get the phone in Bootloaders mode (multicolor screen) by pressing and keep holding down the camera button and at the same time either 'Soft Reset' or 'Power On' the phone,but keep holding down the camera button,till phone boots up in Bootloaders mode(multicolor screen),hook up the phone with pc via usb cable and check if small usb appears "At the bottom of the Bootloaders Screen" and not in the system tray of the pc. If it appears then follow the advise I gave you in my above post,but if doesn't appear then you have a connectivity problem.

The Wiki as all the (basic) info to get you started.
It doesn't work
I can get into Bootloaders mode with usb at the bottom. BUT, I can't get any connection to ActiveSync, any of the ROM update utilities and no radio network connections. That was the specific thing I'm telling you. If the Desktop and the PDA won't talk to each other, what am I gonna do? It's not the cable either. The Wizard Tool will not pick it up either when I used it to try to get device info. If your going suggest any kind of ROM or software off the forum, please specify exact version and title so I don't have to go through 100+ pages doing a search to find a specific piece of software off a vague title such as "stock ROM". You may know what it means because your always on the forum. When someone hasn't been back here in awhile they aren't going to remember some arbitrary string of numbers and letters indicating a certain ROM that they haven't used for a year. Too many of you "regulars" get all pissy about things when someone asks a question. If someone keeps asking the same questions, it's because the forum is NOT laid out in an easily searchable fashion unless you have specific search criteria for things such as CUSTOM_RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_10111210_WWE instead of "stock ROM".
Have you read the Wiki?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
Or other posts?
You'd know by now that in bootloader mode ActiveSync or any other tool (that uses ActiveSync) can't communicate with the phone but that it's possible to upgrade a ROM using the official upgrade utilities.
Have you tried making a search and getting hundreds of undesired and repeated posts which makes you lose days searching for a specific thing?
If you'd been here as long as many of us you'd also be tired of people asking same questions. I was once a fresh member and i would always 'waste' my time than others'.
Also the forum search feature has been enhanced by using Google's search engine instead of internal.
There is simply no way I can express my deep and sincere gratitude for the information available in this forum. Let me explain and I think you may understand why.
Several days ago my wife and I received a couple of HTC 8125's from Ebay. Being a tinkerer I wanted to see what I could do so I upgraded mine to Mobile 6 with Touch-Flo.
The wife was skeptical and waited to see how it worked out. Of course she eventually decided to go for the Bling and handed me hers to upgrade as well.
As soon as the upgrade started on hers the pda went bootscreen and locked up. Sooooo I'm sweating bullets and searching the forums as fast as I can go before she finds out. Then I find this thread and the last post... Don't need Activesync to update as long as the device pops up a little usb on the screen when you plug up... I flashed the 8125 upgrade and *Bang*! Back in business. Continued the upgrade and all is well. The wife is now walking around with her "Bling" and happy and I am off the hook!
Thanks for the GREAT FORUM!

Thankz !
We all highly appreciate it,glad you got it working .Thats what this Forum is sooo famous for "Help & Care"
All,
I have been reading all day and I have tried everything I came accross so please don't flame me and tell me to read the forums! If I missed something I apoligize but I have been working on this all day.
Yesterday morning I used one of the recently popular kitchens that I have used before with success. After I made some tweaks and flashed my Tilt the phone boots up fine but I cannot connect to my at&t service or ActiveSync. At this point I just want to revert to a known good image but I can't connect to ActiveSync.
I deleted the releationship from the phone, uninstalled ActiveSync from my computer, re-installed ActiveSync, rebooted my computer and still nothing, along with many, many other things. WiFi seems to be working and possibly Bluetooth.
How can I get my phone back? I learned a lesson and I hate begging but I would like my phone back and I know this is the place to save it!
Thanks,
Tom
I am far from an expert, but in my experience forcing the phone into the tri-colored bootloader screen(hold power, camera, and reset) will allow you to update, when you cant establish activesync.
Resolved!
j0nnyb1aze,
Funny thing that is exactly what I did and I am back in business! Thanks!
No Image found !!!
Hello!
I did so but apear very fast No Image found !!!!, what should I do now?, I have read and I've done every step of the forum and not usable
Hi All,
I've been running the Orange (UK) WM6.1 ROM for months/years without problems and was messing around with some texts and somewhere along the line I have ended up with the standard 4 stripes down the screen and some text top left.
I have scanned the forums here and the wiki and they suggest connecting using USB and running Mtty.exe, however whilst I can connect the phone using USB Activesync won't recognise it and then I get an error from Mtty.exe because it won't recognise the phone.
I have also tried re-intalling the Orange ROM as well as newer roms, but none of them seem to be able to connect to the phone.
Active sync doesn't seem to be able to connect on Win 7 or Win XP despite them syncing fine this morning.
So, any suggestions out there?
I'll do some more searching, but any pointers would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Try a new USB cable, I went through 5 in one year, or try flashing via SD card.
Well I tried a couple of different leads and no luck.
I did manage to get some info from mtty.exe, but didn't make sense.
I took my SIM out to use in another phone and having left the battery out for a while, put it back in to try again at getting it to start and it booted fine without any problems.
After a bit of messing around it seems like that the boot problem is either down to a problem with the SD card, SIM or a foreign object in phones casing.
I keep the phone in a pocket of my overals that I use a workshop and occasionally iron filings from a grinder can get into it's working, which is what I think has happened.
ANyway, it's back and working again, only need to keep it going until Orange can get some Desire HDs in
Hi!
Read those threads again,the solution is there.
1.Disable USB connections in Activesync menu (right click on green icon on the tray)-->connection settings-->untick "Allow USB connections"
2.Put your device in bootloader mode (yours is in it)
3.Start to connect it with MTTY to do what you want or just run an official Orange UK ROM update
If everything is fine,your device will be alive again.
After that install Hard-SPL to avoid problems like this.

P.S.:Sorry,I didn't read post #3,but it can be useful later.
One more tip:check the camera button.
Thanks Scootie,
I'll try the Hard-SPL thing - the jumping into boot loader seems pretty random, has happened a couple more times and I find I have to pull the battery for several minutes and then try a restart.
The camera button doesn't seem to do much other than what it is supposed to.
Pretty annoying since I have had the phone for 3 years, but have not had signal at home so hardly use it, and now we have signal due to Orange/T-Mobile merger from the beginning of the month the phone fails me :-(
