Hang in bootloader - MDA Compact II Software Upgrading

Hi @ all,
**** happens, yesterday i tried to upgrade my rom on charmer (mda compact 2).
During installation system hangs on and didn´t finish.
So now i have only the startscreen and can reach the bootloader.
Tried now to flash an original rom, the ruu says error 294 invalid vendor id.
Otherwise the ruu (for no id) ended with error 238 file read.
My bootloder shows IPL 1.12, SPL 1.12 and USB connected.
I have read a lot of threads but cant find a answer for that.
Has anyone a good idea?
Thanks a lot for helping.
I wish all users in that great forum a happy new year

Hi Ronni,
same problem here. Do you found any solution?
Is it right, that your Device not charging and USB is not recognizing too?

Are you trying to flash WM6 ROM to your charmer? Because WM6 required IPL and SPL level at least 2.xx.
Did you tried this method to bring charmer back to life?

wow, thank you for your quick response. Hmm, I´m not shure, it´s a PDA from a Collegue, I don´t know, what he do with it. (I know only he try to flash something) Next week he take it to our office, then I try your solution
Thank you again

Charmer crashed with the new Aku 3.3!

Hello!
I tried to flash my Charmer with the new german Aku 3.3. At first everything seems to be ok, but at 95% it stops and i got the Message: update error- there is an comunication problem! So what can i do? I tried to flash the old rom back but there comes also at 95% a message: invalid command - nfb file cannot be used for your pda!
Please help me !
Greetings Musna!
Ps: can somebody upload a sd image for the mda compact II !
Go to bootloader mode, then try to flash RUU rom (1.x). You can find it on Charmer wiki.
It doesn`t work too, it always stops at 95% has anyone another idea?
did you try hard reset?
Yes i tried hard reset, but it is always in bootloader!
I have also the same problem. Tried to upgrade to version 3.3. Everytime it stops at 80%. I don't know why?! I can repair it with the software and re-run it. But it has the same effect.
Now i will try to downgrade to 2.6 again. I really don't understand what causes the problem. I hope i will get this thing running again....
EDIT: I reflashed the device with the older 2.6 ROM and it is working right now. However I didn't really get why it gets stuck at 80% with 3.3 ?!?!

The aku3.3 is up to date the bootloader version!!!
IPL and ISP version now is 3.00.
http://www.windowsceportal.hu/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1079
Sorry but i do not speak hungarian. What do you want to tell me ?
I´ve got the same: My charmer is in Bootloader IPL 2.06.0001 SPL 3.08.0001
I can´t downgrade to AKU 2: Please order a newer Version.
Every try to upgrade to AKU 3.3 failed at 95% with Error 326.
Is there any help for my charmer???
oh.**** !!!! I got the same problem with them and my first pda uk rom already empty screen and then i try with my scrond pda German rom it the same problem and now just only show in bootloader screen.Have i ask someone who knowage about this he told me that if SLP in you PDA have chang it be hard to repair.So,I think I lose 2 PDA did I try to flash in T-Mobile Official Rom de that i hope to develop it but i hve to kill 2 Charmer.Who take responsibilities,T-Mobile right ???
Ok no problem you can repair it! At first you have to brand your device with the rom you want to! After 95% the Problem will come again! When it stops you have to go with a reset to bootloader again.When your device is in bootloader you have to install the Radio Rom from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302768
After that your device will be able to boot again and it should work!- But the Problem during the installation will stay,so you have always to use this way to flash your Mda compact II!
In the new rom there must be a problem with the radio rom and this causes the broken device.
I`m sorry for my bad english but i`m not used to talk very much! So i hope you understand what i mean!
Greetings from Austria Musna!
that link is broken
Then try this one:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Prophet/Radio_Roms/Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.11.exe
You can find the radio rom also on the ftp server. Prophet> Radio Roms>Prophet_G4_RadioRom_v2.47.11.exe
You can try different Radio Rom versions, i have flashed the v.247.11 and it worked.
Normaly it should work!
Thank u so much !!! My Charmer secrond PDA come back have life again and it can working.So,my Charmer first PDA UK rom still empty screen and notthing working when i press any button.Who can slove this problem !!
Musna do you have any massage such as msn

bricked trinity, please help

Hi guys,
I tried to upgrade my trinity and it stopped at 80% with error about connection problem. I've entered bootloader manually (I get:
"TRIN100
IPL-0.50
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.0000")
I then run the updater again, and it fails at %1 every time with "error 270"
How can I restore my device ?
Which updater are you using?
Try a ROM that matched your CID (official HTC Rom if you have a non-branded device).
Good luck.
The crash happened when I tried to update to mUn wm6 rom
Now I've got the same issue (error 270) with all the roms (even the one matching my CID)
The problem is that it says that my device sould be synchronized with activesync but I cannot connect to activesync as it only start in bootloader.

You definitely should've followed other forum member's suggestion to flash HSPL before trying mUn's WM6 ROM... I might be able to help you, though, contact me in private if you want.
I hope your trin will get alive again!!!
Please post any news after pms...
Good luck bro
Unbricked thanks to stepw. You're a genious stepw thank you so much
OK, can you please write here the procedure that helped you?
So if anyone else will have same problem, it will see the solution...
Thanks!
same Problem here with Herald....How can i flash from Bootloader if i don´t have the original HTC Rom file, that fits my CID ?
Thanks !
stepw sent me a tool he made to flash HSPL from the PC. As he is still working on it, he asked me not to distribute it but I think you can ask him with a private message
A little correction - HSPL was NOT flashed to tonio94's device, unless he flashed it manually.

Error 246 Device not responding

I'd bought my htc p3600 pro (black, free from sim-lock & free from any carrier) from London.
As advised by TRINITYGUIDES.INFO site I tried to do HardSPL with all the three available HardSPL files, but of no avail.
When the HardSPL's progress bar comes(on pc) it gives a message on my phone " Enterbootloader.exe....This may harm your device...Do you want to continue.." I pressed yes & the process stopped & gave an error on pc "Error 246 Device not responding" & on phone screen showed the bootloader with
TRIN100
IPL-SSPL by Des
TRIN100
SPL-1.07.ds
I did soft reset on my p3600 & its working as usual with it original spl infos.
I want to put official WM6 SEA version(ROM+RADIO) on my phone...Please help.
I too have the same message when I try to upgrade to hard spl as per teh guide here: http://trinityguides.info/index.php...ask=view&id=25&Itemid=66&limit=1&limitstart=2
Can anyone help? I have tried updating active synch... could there be anything else?
I have flashed my rom befroe to unlock the GPS but I now want to upgrade to WM6.
I guess the hard spl is a failsafe and I can skip this step?
Thanks

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

Before flash manually enter bootloader. After start the rom update utility. (As www.trinityguides.info suggest). You will not get error 246 any more

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...

So you guys have a working version of the updating ?
And please remove all the links which are not working, linking a solve for the 246 problem, there are nomore links available...
thanks
Dome
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!

sorry if this post seems to be a repeat , but i tried the search option and the results were not fruitful
a friend of mine , while trying to upgrade to a TNT ROM , didn't HardSPLed the device first , and successfully changed the ROM of the device , now it is stuck on the blue screen with SPL and IPL versions , and no response . for some reason , the device can go to bootloader mode , but it can not be reflashed , and it does not respond to a hard reset command.
please advise on what to do
regards
When it is in the bootloader mode, and connected via USB, is there a little USB icon in the bottom left? If so, simply flash your phones carrier ROM and all should be fine with it again. You can then apply HardSPL and flash to the TNT or any other ROM that you want to. Is your device a G3 or G4 by the way? What are the numbers after IPL and SPL?
well my friend says that the USB icon is visible there , and the device was indeed a G4. the thing is , what exactly should he do , in order to flash the ROM , since non of imate roms work for it. should he use any special software?
i'll greatly appreciate your help
Is he using Vista or XP?
he is using Windows XP , could it be the PC OS that caused interference?
Well, only if it is Vista does it really matter. He needs to get ahold of an original carrier ROM, such as the O2, or T-Mobile one and flash it to his phone, then HardSPL it, then upgrade to 6 or 6.1.
Download and flash Wizard_love Rom,it might do the trick,then HardSPL and upgrade to any wm6 or 6.1 rom.
What exact error it gives while flashing imate official rom ?
well the wizard has been an imate ,and it was flashed with an Original imate ROM already , but no success , any other suggestions?
thanks again

[SOLVED] Noob needs help! Is my qtek9100 a brick?

Hi!
this is my first post here, so sorry for my bad english or mistakes
i bought a qtek 9100 on ebay, and i'm wondering if it's a brick or not. i received the device 3 days ago. during this time i read through a LOT of threads here, tried a few things and nothing works.
here is some info:
- the phone is a qtek 9100 without branding
- the IPL is now 1.01 (i flashed "CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE" successfully)
- the SPL is 2.18 (because of the missing suffix ".0001" i guess it's a G3)
- GSM is 01.12.10
- OS is 1.5.4.2
- when i start the device (without any button pressed) it stops at the splash screen (which was a qtek logo before flashing, and is now this picture with a beer, that says "some things last forever" )
- i can get into bootloader screen (color screen) by holding camera button while starting
- in bootloader screen a small "USB" appears when i connect cable to usb on pc
- when i press communicate and voice buttons (on the sides) while starting, the "Press send to restore factory default" screen appears, but pressing send prints out "Format FAT Partition Format is Failed"
- the device gets recognized by windows ("Mobile Device" appears on my computer)
- ActiveSync 4.5 does not connect to device, not even as guest.
- when i hit "Connect..." in ActiveSync's connection settings, nothing is found
("Allow USB Connections" is ON)
- the device is CID-locked ("FF" state in Mtty 1.42)
- i can't unlock CID, because i can't get "EnableRapi.cab" onto the device without ActiveSync connection
Ok, these are basically the things i know now. The problem is that i never saw any other screen then the "HTC" boot screen, the "Qtek" splash logo (the one with the clouds) before i flashed with custom ruu wwe, after that i see the new splash logo, and i can get into bootloader (color) screen. I never saw any windows mobile running on this device! I could never establish a connection with ActiveSync!
So i hope that someone here on this nice forum can help me get this device to work (WM5 would even be enough right now) or at least give me a hint!
Thanks in advance!
Put the phone in bootloader mode and flash back to the original ROM.
since i bought it in ebay i don't have the original rom of this device.
but i found "233309-qtek9100_2180707_21807109_20710_qtek_ger_ship.exe" through google, which seems to be an original qtek rom (version 2.18). shall i flash this one?
You can find in the Wiki the latest official roms of every brand for our Wizards .-
ok, thanks.
i found one (Qtek GER 2.18.7) and flashed it. the process was successfull, now the IPL/SPL is both 2.18 . But the device still doesn't start and stops at the splash screen (which is now the original qtek splash again). I can still get into bootloader mode and hard reset results in "Format is failed"! No ActiveSync connection either... how should i proceed now?
i basically narrowed it down to these two problems:
- the splash screen freezes
- hard reset error "Format is failed"
( IPL: 2.18, SPL: 2.18 )
can't anybody help please?
i'm freaking out about this
With everything i’ve read the only people who’ve had any success had CID unlocked devices.
ok, i think that too for what i've read so far...
is there any other way of CID unlocking except lokiwiz (can't copy enablerapi.cab without activesync!)?
would this imei-check service that i've read about work in this case?
meanwhile i've also tried something with mtty (r2sd all) but doesn't work -> "didn't get proper security level"
is this also because of the CID lock? i tried to find out the right password to enter in mtty, but found nothing that worked...
does anybody know the correct password?
I couldent CID unluck my 9100 with lokiwiz so i did it 5min ago with Wizard Service Tool (ha to reboot my computer).
I'm having the exact same problem,
except I can't flash any other ROMS so I'm stuck looking at this incredibly frustrating beer picture, with "some things last forever".
Does anyone have any further ideas?
Look up the orignal rom on the wiki, get into bootloader. And flash it back.

I put the original rom.
But... the problem is the same.
when I started the device (without any button pressed) it stops at the splash screen (which has a qtek logo before flashing)
- i can get into bootloader screen (color screen) by holding camera button while starting, I installed the original and others rom who days before works perfectly... Now... this stopped at splash screen
- when I tryed to format.. = "Format FAT Partition Format is Failed"
Any idea?
I have tried this : http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=332143
but... without success.
Could you help me, please?
Very Thanks
i'm still stuck with the same problem with hang up on qtek splash screen, too!
i have IPL 2.18 and SPL 2.18 and i can get in boot loader screen and connect with usb. (but no activesync connection!)
formatting doesn't work either.
does anybody have an idea how to solve this?? it's frustrating... i've tried almost every guide here on the forums.
same proplem here with
ipl 2.16
and spl 2.16
I used this to fix this problem
Hi i had the same problem the other week, installed a dodgy app, went to do a hard reset and wouldn't do a hard reset format failed. Tried updating rom everything worked ok until you booted it up. Wouldn't go past second splash sreen. After a few hours of trawling round i found this thread.

Problem in connecting to my PC
Hey ,
I just bought a qtek 9100 a day before ... I tried to connect it with my computer.. instead of connecting my battery gets charging well can u plz help me out !
is there any software that i should install in my pc in order to get it connected to my PC...... please help me fast ! Lot of work is pending !
Thanks
Salman
Ok guys, I finally have this SOLVED.
My QTEK 9100 is working fine now!!!
I'm so happy with it right now
Since nothing I tried worked, I went to imei-check.co.uk and got my phone completly unlocked! It only cost me about 11€ and since it works now I have to admit that it was worth it (no advertising). After the unlocking was done I could do the "r2sd all"-method (Tool: MTTY 1.42) using a miniSD card. You can find a good tutorial on this board somewhere. After that everything was just fine...
-> I never saw it working and Hell Yeah: This baby just kicks a$$ !!! (although it's kinda 'oldschool' these days )
