will MTTY help me??

[trifin]

I have a o2 xda exec that only responds if i do a hard reset then all i get is the 0 or X options and then nothing whatever i choose.

where can i get mtty from and will it help

[trifin]

is the Bootloader screen where it says 'Press 0 to restore... X to exit?'

i have found a version of MTTY but it only has com1 & com2.

i now realise i did not do a soft reset after upgrading the rom....

[trifin]

the version of MTTY i have is 1.11a

my o2 xda exec is less than 24hrs old. i have already broken it.

I cant beleive O2 ships with such an old ROM. I bought it for push email so i have to upgrade the ROM. But now its useless and I am in trouble!

ok well i have mtty1.42 now but still that only shows com1 or com2

Please can someone tell me if the '0 or X' screen is the bootloader?

No, the bootloader screen is when you hold down the backlight button on the front of the device, the power button, and then use your stylus to tap the reset button. You will then see "Serial" up at the top and probably V. 1.00 at the bottom. It will not be a lighted screen, but dark gray. Make sure that ActiveSync is not in use. If you're not sure hold alt-ctrl-delete until task manager appears then click on Processes and look for something like wscecom.exe (spelling is wrong) but this is ActiveSync. Click on this and end this process, this should free up your USB and then you can enable MTTY and plug your device back in, start up MTTY and you should see the USB port to the left below the COM's. This worked for me. I am still stuck at the blue splash screen though...

Take care,

hey thanks alot!

it worked i now see usb in mtty. I am trying the upgrade again - fingers crossed!

what a crazy day it is for me... this morning i found a rom with push email and stereo BT. I installed it and it killed my machine - from high to low and its all my fault!

i hope this splash screen error gets fixed for you!!!

for me i think the manufacturers are partly to blame. they should all release roms with full functionality and then none of us would be going through this!

it worked!

for anyone reading this and concerned about upgrading a rom note that mine failed as i did not follow the instructions exactly!
