Can I revive this one ? (T-Mobile MDA Plus NL) - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development

Hello all,
I have an T-Mobile MDA (Dutch) that hangs in the bootloader screen after doing a wrong flashprocedure.
I tried to exit the boot loader screen with mmty and UNI_ExitBootloader, but that didn't work, so something is seriously wrong with the current rom data.
I tried to read (and understand) every similar topic on this forum to get a solution. They all point to procedures where I need to copy and run the (h)spl's, but that's impossible because I cannot boot the device.
I also tried to flash a shipped T-Mobile (NL) rom into the device. Unfortunately, the flash procedure hangs at 0% for a while and shows an error message ("connection error")
Is there a way to get this thing alive again?
More info:
Bootloader screen says:
NIKI200
SPL-1.16.0000
CPLD-4
T-Mobile MDA Plus (256MB rom) Dutch version

Some more information...
I have now tried to flash RUU_Nike_HTC_NLD_2.09.404.1_Radio_NikeMR_1.65.28.25_signed_Ship now, and this one is NOT stuck at 0%, but displays the invalid vendor id error after 1%.
I think I need this "type" of rom update, but now for T-Mobile (Dutch), so I won't get a vendor id error. I currently have a CustomRUU with the Dutch T-mobile rom (which is stuck at 0% and reports an 'connection' error message)
I also tried to flash from sd card, but it doesnt start. Do I need to rename the nbh file, because the bootloader (before the rgb screen) says "no image file" ?

I don't know what did the trick. But I have run mtty and entered the commands "set 16 0" and "set 14 0".
Then I tried to flash the Dutch t-mobile rom again, leading to the same error and a flash screen stuck at 0%.
I rebooted my device then .. and there it was.. a T-Mobile boot screen and a device that boots without any problem

Thx Tutti-frutti you are king

OK, that was a mistake (SPV M3100 ROM change))

I had 2 choices with my SPV M3100, throw it in the bin or find a ROM image with a Bluetooth stack that actually works (and stays working); so, I downloaded a Dopod and an I-Mate rom image.
Went through the motions with the Dopod image and at the end it said there had been communications errors, it needed to reset to rectify the problem.
After it reset I have a screen which is just a mass of random pixels; curiously with a very small set of digits in the bottom left corner in red. The screen is obviously looking at RAM as I can see the pixels change as the data changes.
After about 10 seconds I get the Windows Mobile flash screen and that's where it stops. I can get the bootloader screen to appear but nothing else documented on here has any effect. I've tried the SD Card image but the bootloader doesn't seem to care/know that it's there.
mtty can see the device and I can get "some" commands to react (info 2 hangs the system; I get HTC and then some garbage text if I enter "set 14 0" but then nothing).
Is there any way to get this <extremely> unstable product back to a usable state or should I just accidentally step on it.
Which Dopod device is based on HTC TyTN/Hermes?
Edit: OK these ones - Dopod CHT 9000 / Dopod 838 Pro/
Stupid question but did you try to flash the ROM for a different device?
I used the Hermes ROM images.
Even if I had used the wrong image, the issue is how do I get it to build only utilising the bootloader?
I discovered why the bootloader didn't like my SD card; it was formatted FAT and not FAT32. After I corrected that, whatever HERMIMG.nph image I use, the bootloader simply hangs at "checking..."; (I left it overnight to see if it was a timing issue).
"..After I corrected that, whatever HERMIMG.nph image I use, the bootloader simply hangs at "checking..."; (I left it overnight to see if it was a timing issue)..."
that is so because you trying to flash DOPOD ROM to Orange branded device. You need matching Orange branded ROM to flash with SD card. Your device has CID that is defferent to the CID the DOPOD is made for.
As far as I am concerned, Orange has not made available ROM image for your device as of yet.

G4 RRU problem

Hi all,
I've tried to flash my phone with RRU (underground edition crossbow.exe), update said everything ok, it started to upload new rom into phone, but at 96% it stopped with error 302. After passing the recovery process it boots just into bootloader. Tried to run again, the same.
Screen shows:
IPL 2.17.0001
SPL 2.17.0001
ActiveSync v. 4.2
Phone was unlocked (was showing Vodafone boot logo, but I've used o2 simcard without problem)
Obviously don't know if phone have CID locked or not.
Thanks for any advices

Dead TyTN, bricked forever??

I need help, after upgrading to XDA Live Rom i decided to downgrade the radio. The flashing got interrupted cause of MSN and the device got bricked, It stops at HTC splash screen after saying NO GSM. I have tried every method imaginable to recover my poor PDA..
All I can get is to the bootloader where i got IPL-1.01 and SPL-1.09.
I've tried the microSD card thing with the .nbh file named HERMIMG, screen goes white, says loading and then checking and then back to the Tri-colour screen.. nothing done :/
Obviously i cannot get an active sync connection so some thing which i could have tried doing weren't possible to achieve.
I tried using the RomUpgradeUT but i get a porblem with vendor ID with all the ROMS and get an error 262 Update Error, I try to do the recovery thing but the PDA always boots in the HTC splash screen and gets stuck there..
Can anyone help??
can you mtty into the device?
yes.. i can.. tried following instruction and installing as in forums but no results. tried loading the .nb files but never made effect
what happens when you reflash radio rom manually ??
if you didn't have the mfg bootloader you have to use the exe files...
maybe just flash the 1.04 loader and then use the 1.27 radio updater (t-mobile)...
after that reflash the 1.01 mfg and you can flash manually ágain
could you guide me in doing that?? tell me what to download an d how to get the nb files for the radio??? plus i didn't get the hang of the mtty yet... thanks for everything
use this thread for bricked devices:

upgrade rom code error

Hello,
I have a big problem. I flashed my HTC Touch Dual (Swisscom XPA Touch Dual with Italian language) with SSPL first. Then I forgot to flash the device with uSPL or HardSPL and a new ROM (official HTC wm6.1 German) was failed in the middle. Now I have the "upgrade rom code error". Flashing the HardSPL or uSPL is imposible now, bcause of the "ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR". I can't find the original ROM (swisscom italian) for the device, all other official ROMs brake with the error " ERROR [294]: INVALID VENDOR ID" (because there is no HardSPL / uSPL, right?). I have USB connection in bootloader mode (can go there only, the operator system is lost) but in the device manager there is MICROSOFT USB SYNC and not HTC USB SYNC (can't identificate the device, only as a "Qualcomm..." in "devices and printer (WIN 7 x64). I have done all the steps for "drivers for WIN 7" and tried it on a (virtual) WIN XP with the same results. Is there a way to save the system with mtty (it's too difficult for me) or other processes?
Thank you in advance (and sorry for my english) !!!
P.S.: I looked at google and other threads in this forum, but without results

Hello ebsbow,
I got it after two days full of desperation! Mtty was the solution. Two simple commands like "set 16 0" and "task 8" and my device was ready for flashing again. But now step by step.
I have a new ROM on it. Great!

Always showing bootloader screen with rom upgrade error
I was trying to revert to windows custom rom from android (due to frequent freezing) and then onwards booting the phone I am always getting the bootloader screen displaying rom upgrade error.
I tried hard reset but still the same problem persists, then I downgraded the HSPL 2.08 to SPL-1.42.HSPL and then tried reinstalling the custom rom but still the same problem persists. In between after downgrading the HSPL, I tried task 29, it was unsuccessful after 96% (shows Invalid Command (Error 290)), while reinstalling the customRUU I have, I got something like error 270 at the end (it goes fine till 100%).
I also tried with installing the radio (ver 2.15.50.14) in between but to no effect
Please help me in fixing the issue, my phone is of no use now
