Hi,
I wanted to update my trinity in the version of S300+ (French) with the original HTC ROM.
Not only it didn't work, but I lost my phone, I cannot access anything even with Hard Reset and battery removal...
When I want to upgrade, it's going till 1% and then it stops and I'm getting a message "Error 286" Cannot connect with phone.
I cannot hard reset, I cannot do anything! When I hard reset, I'm always coming back to the bootloader (I think it's the bootloader, the screen with colors, where it says numbers and it's says USB).
Any idea? A upgrade with miniSD will help?
Thanks!
Start flash utility again and wait untill it starts again (can take sometime).
I had it to when I first flashed a rom.
Hi,
I tried it already, but it's always blocking at 1% of progress and it's telling me in the computer Error 286, and the phone resets and comes back to the bootloader...
Any idea?
I just tried now to update the ROM with the HTC_Trinity_SIM_CID_Unlock_v1, it's going till 14% but then it stops...
Any idea, please?
I cannot send back my device to warantee because updating roms is forbidden...
This will solve all your problems:

Put the phone in BOOTLOADER, then disactive ACTIVESYNC (form menu). After then start MTTY (you found it in the forum) set it on USB and then give the command:
task 32 Enter
task 28 Enter
task 2A Enter
info 8 Enter
task 8 Enter
After the last command the PDA restart and then you make a normal flash.

Please give more instruction howto
Can't you just reflash it with an original SFR ROM? And then read correctly all the instructions for the wm6 flash?

SFR dosen't give any ROM... But the problem is that I cannot get out the bootloader, but I'll use the solution given here.

I've been trying to get my old extended rom and new Qtek OS on my Wizard (Vario).
But now it gets stuck in the spash screen (ie the one giving the ROM numbers).
I've tried putting the wizard into bootloader mode and I can flash RUU's but when it resets it still gets stuck on the spash screen and won't go any further !!!????
What can I do ??
Please Help
Cheers
John
I should say that I had flashed using button's ROM RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.html
and this worked fine!
I then copied across my T-mobile Extended ROM and again everything seemed OK.
BUT then I tried to restore my new saved OS ROM using aWizard and this caused a freeze on my Wizard. It was after a hard reset that the wizard stopped at the splash screen.
Now of course I'm limited in my options because Activesync won't work until the Wizard has fully booted up.
I have tried setting the Wizard into bootloader mode and tried several ROM's (RUU Installer ones) but every time the correct splash screen comes up with the new ROM numbers but that is as far as it gets.
I also noticed on hard reset that you get the following message
Format FAT partition
Format failed
it then goes to the splash screen as before.
Are there any other things I can try Or will I have to send it back to T-mobile for a replacement??
(It's only 2 months old and I have re-flashed it with the orginal T-mobile ROM - but still won't go past the splash screen!!)
I live in hope
John
I have this EXACT same problem!
I can reflash any ROM but it will not go past the splash screen. Only difference was I wasn't playing with my extended ROM. I flashed the AKU2 QTEK ROM yesterday and have been fine through several soft resets, etc. This last time I was uninstalling phonealarm and after a soft reset I got a "could not find smswakeup.exe" (or something similar) and it's been stuck ever since! I also get the "Format Failed" message. Can anyone help!?
I think I'm going to have to send it back to T-mobile and hope they give me a replacement. Something is wrong, it doesn't seem to make any difference what ROM I used.
I think I'll reload the T-mobile shipped ROM grom the FTP site and send it back - and claim ignorance that it it suddenlt freezed and now won't boot up! - Bummer!!!
Right I've logged a fault and it will be sent back - let's hope T-mobile can't detect it's been unlocked and had several ROM updates - I suspect they will try a ROM update themselves then give up ???
The worrying thing though is that it IS possible to kill your phone with updates - maybe it was when I used aWizard to try and restore a ROM that did it??? I'll be more carefull next time!!
this has just happened to one of the devices im flashing at the moment.... absolulty f**king raging :evil: :evil:
i wish teher was a solution!!? anyone got any ideas?
activesync wont find it, so aWizard wont work.
i can flash between 3 roms without any problems (1.5.x 1.6.x 2.x) but always hangs on the splash screen. i have flashed back to the default rom that it came installed with it so i could just send it back to o2 (only 2 days old!)
i would rather just get it sorted by myself thoough so if anyone has ANY ideas then please let me know.
thank you!
Good luck! after about 3 days of trying different types of firmware, I gave up and sent it to expansys, for repair. And it looks like they've lost the bloody thing now. :evil:

same problem here.
tryed to write os with awizzard after changing extended_rom.
kills phone.
format failed..
Tryed different os's from win util - failed
upgraded with sd card methode worked.
in short :
you need a working wizzard to make a os dump on sd card.
Connect to wizzard with usbterm or romupdate.exe or simular.
do a rs2all command to dump os to sd card.
stick this card in broken phone.
hold voice comm button while resetting.
On ask press voice comm button again.
it bow restores the sd backup to phone.
saved mine.....
btw sd card backup can be read ad write by pc with util ntrw.exe .
so if you don't have a working dump i can upload one.
just mail me.

hard reset your device and hold your Camera Button prior to starting the wizard back on.
when the device turns back on, you will get the boot screen. Plug in your USB cable and load one of the known ROMS like the second to last iMate ROM.
This will allow you to get past the splash screen.

Don't worry, I met the same problem as you before, almost lost my hope, but finally I managed to fix it.
The solution is simple, that is to find an original SD card backup image from your wizard or others, then try to restore it in the bootloader mode. In my case, it said checksum error or sth else after begin restoring, and it gave up. Then I put my wizard into bootloader mode, picked one offical released RUU package, start reflash again. Finnally, I found the wirzrd works again for me after reboot.
I guess the principle is that the SD restore will destroy some import flash data structure before it said wrong, then the RUU package will rebuilt it wholely in the next reflash.
Hope this helpful, and sorry for my bad english.

Last week after trying to downgrade to the original Cingular ROM on my 8125 using aWizard I ended up with a device that was close to being a paperweight. At least I thought so until I read and read and finally was able to get it to the bootloader and then plugged in the USB cable and ran the RUU for the new Qtek ROM (2.17). Guess what happened, yeah it worked. To my surprise I had a perfect device after 15 minutes.
For about 3 hours I thought I was a toast. Never will I do that again.
THIS is truly heaven for me !!

I was running xelencin's latest custom rom. I have used his previous versions and all was good.
This one hung at 98%. I was just letting it do its thing when out of nowhere, BSOD. So now my phone is just sitting at 98%. I thought there was a forum post here about recovering but I'm not able to find it.
Thanks.
Update: After a soft reset, I am back to the multicolor screen. When I plug it in, it says USB in the bottom left hand corner. Device manager shows a PocketPC USB Sync device as well.
When I perform a hard reset (Comm Button + Voice Dial held, then press soft reset with stylus), I am taken right back to the same multicolor screen.
You're at the bootloader.
This is a Good Thing(tm).
At this point, you should be able to rerun any (assuming you are CID unlocked) any RUU ROM upgrade. Let it do its thing and you'll be good to go.

Who knows, you didn't tell anything useful about your phone or what ROMs or anything else. Try the link in my sig. Read it, do ALL the steps, if you think you can skip something--don't, if "it doesn't work"--then you didn't follow all the steps.

I think this may be part of the problem... How long did you wait? All roms stall at some point and can stall for like 5 mins (sometimes more). Don't do ANYTHING, unless your PC gets an error. Its still working. If it sits for more than 10 mins then you probably do have a problem, but it can sit for what seems like forever sometimes. Just be patient.

That error indicates you aren't CID Unlocked. Is your phone booting now? or are you at the bootloader (rainbow) screen? If you are at the bootloader, then flash your official rom to get a working device. Once you have a working device, then go to step G3.6 and do the CID Unlock procedure.
ALso remove your SD card while you are doing all of this until you get it CID Unlocked and onto the TMobile 2.26 official rom (G3.8).
AND yes, you have a G3, so you don't (and shouldn't) be in the G4.x steps.

This is my last post for the day as I can't handle anymore of this (its not just you peran, but the other half dozen posts I've read in the last hour or so where people just aren't following the instructions they are given. These methods are tried and true, and they work. And yes, this is the way to CID Unlock your phone unless you pay to have it done)... In a previous post to you, it was stated you had to get back to an official rom first. Have you done this (your replies indicate you just continue to do other roms)? You need to get the latest rom from your carrier and get your device working again. Get it all charged up, pull out your SD card, then try flashing back to the button rom (I would also suggest you try pulling the button rom down again in case there is something wrong with your previous download of it).
Its the weekend, I'm going to go enjoy the spring weather
i did it like u suggested mfrazzz. i know that my phone isnt CID unlocked. but that is my problem. i read the mentioned article x-times and did it like described but the problem is : when i downgrade to button 1.05 rom then my pda stuck at 98% and i get the message from the update program on my pc that the downgrade was successful. but it isn't. why? till this step u cant do much wrong i think... :-(
Have you flashed back to the official rom from your carrier? Until you do that and get your device back working there is no point in trying to continue to flash the button rom (or any other rom). You have to get back to your carrier's official rom first. None of your posts indicate you have done that.

Have the same [Error 246]! How can I definitly fix it?
Hi,
first of all, sorry for my poor English. I try to explain my problem so good I can... I hope you can help me.
I have the "[Error 246] Device not responding" problem.
I have used a lot the "search"-function and I have found a lot of posts which propose the same solution "restart the Rom upgrade another time". Ok I did it and my PDA works very well, but now I would like to solve the problem radicaly... How can I solve this problem? Should I use SPLexploit (I have found the guide on trinityguides.info) and then reflash a Hard-Spl?
Thx a lot

Hi,
first of all, sorry for my poor English. I try to explain my problem so good I can... I hope you can help me.
I have the "[Error 246] Device not responding" problem.

Before flash manually enter bootloader. After start the rom update utility. (As www.trinityguides.info suggest). You will not get error 246 any more
thanks for answer
Many thanks for anwser...but...
Is this the only solution? If is so, then everbody has this problem, isn't so?

Here is written to flash rom you should manually enter to bootoader. In this case, you will not have error 246.
Most of the people know this, so they have not this problem
Those who not manually enter bootloader can get error 246, and this way of flashing is not as safe as the manual bootloader way.
(because in this case you use the spl uploaded by RUU, not the hard-spl on the PDA)
Ok, now I really understand
Ok, this is a very good anwser, short and clear... thanks...

I found a way to solve the problem 246 go in you mobile device, -->start -> settings-> connections ->USB to PC open this. Remove the hook @ Advanced networksettings activation! ---> click OK--> close
try again the bootloader etc, then on the tricolore reboot screen is shown USB in the lower white field and the bootloader can do its routine complete.
Have Fun with flashing the phones!

Hello,
I know you guys got some excellent walkthroughs, roms, programs and threads where you've helped a lot of people out but I could really use some personal feedback. I had hoped to fix my phone using one of the excisting threads but unfortunalty I can't get it to work with those.
My problem is one I've seen more of in here, I used the SE updater and it froze at 53%, I did what the program said, reconnected and it froze again at 12%, and again, again, etc. So I disconnected thinking it might be a bad USB port. But then the updater didn't recognise my phone at all. So I used the mtty program suggested in some of the threads and I got past the red/green/blue screen but now it's stuck at the Sony Ericson logo, as if WM6.1 is gone.
This is what the red/green/blue screen currently states:
KOV110
SPL-0.78.0000
MicroP1-787
MicroP2-707
From what I gather this means I can't flash roms, right? I tried making it a hard-spl but when I use the tool it says it can't connect.
So is there anyway to get a rom on it and bring it back to life?
Thanks inadvance!
Get an original rom from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475482
copy .nbh file from the package onto your sd card and rename it to : Kovsimg.nbh then bring phone into boot loader via : vol down + power.
It should flash the rom now. i the problem is still present after that you
have to deal with mTTy but first try the flash...
i think you could also bring phone into bootloader without sd card inserted then connect usb cable, display should now print 'USB',and after that start rom update utility.
regards

Thank you for your reply, I will do as you said although I've already tried something similiar to this. I believe the problem was that I couldn't flash roms from my SD since I don't have the hard SLD. But I will try it anyway as soon as I get home.
In the mean time I would love to hear more ideas about how to fix my phone.

You really need have to flash the HardSPL first as, based in your above post, you still have not done that. It will be useless to flash cooked ROM with that. If you can still power on your phone and you have an activesynch in your computer, i suggest you download the HardSPL first and update your phone using your PC. If you are successful doing that, then you can flash all you want.
original roms will still work with original spl... but nevermind =P

My phone can still power on in the sense that it shows the Sony Ericson logo or that I can access the three collor screen. But it won't launch WM6.1. I also have a problem with updating to hard DSL. It does recognise my phone because without it connected the program finds nothing and with the phone connected it wants to start updating. It says ''updating from image version: (emply) to image version: 1.00.X1 Ipress next and it opens a progress bar on both my X1 and the PC. But it never goes beyond 0% and then gives me an connection error. I think it has something to do with not being able to get passed the Sony Ericson logo. I mean the hard-DSL program does recognise my mobile but activeSync is never active because my PC doesn't recognise a WinMobile phone (since it wont go past the Sony Ericson screen)

Really? That might fix my device then. Could you suggest a rom from the long list? Perhaps one that works on all versions? Because I'm dutch but my mobile has always been in english so I'm not sure what rom version I had. Except that it was identified as an R2 Rom by the Sony updater before it killed my X1...
Go here
Find the latest stock rom for your country (and perhaps your carrier) and flash it
No need to have Hard SPL for that

Alright so I got an R1 original rom (I now realize that the R3's were originals aswell) and it worked! I'm not sure if it was the different rom or the formatting with FAT32 that did but it works again. So I'd like to thank everyone who was kind enough to reply.
The device is incredibly slow now but now I can use the hard-DSL installer, right? DOes anyone have a suggestion for a good rom to use?

DON'T hard-spl if you're going to flash a stock ROM. And especially if you're going to use SEUS.
Try flashing the R3A first. The R1s are way slow, as you've seen.
