HELP

[joey7415963]

Hi all I know there's been many a post about being stuck in the bootloader and I even went to the wiki to see what to do.

Firstly, when following the wiki (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader) on the mtty_utility there is no option for USB only comm 1, 2, or 3 (am i being stupid?).

Secondly, I had a guess and tried all the comm's and eventually comm three seemed to be the only one working, but when I type in the commands it does not do anything.

Any help would be greatly appriciated as I would hate to see my uni go its been so good to me.

Thanks in advance

Jo

The USB option is at the very bottom of the list. Unless your PC isn't registering the ports, you should be able to get MTTY to work for that part at least.

Thanks for the reply but there wasn't a USB option, I've tried everything, I think it may be to do with vista continuously wanting to run mobsync.exe whenever I plug the uni in but there's no way to stop it.

I've tried ending it as a process but mtty still doesn't have the option of USB.
If you have any ideas please post them, am I right in beleiving that you cannot charge in bootloader mode? Or is that just off the USB?

Thanks

Jo

P.S. The laptop I'm using can read other things through the USB ports, and I have tried every port just to double check that they are not all on the same line (ie an internal hub).

I think it may have something to do with Vista... I'm not sure as I don't have a Universal...

If you have access to XP it may be faster and easier...

I think you may be right :(

I shall wait untill my housemate gets back in, if it doesn't work in safemode!
Cheers for your help anyway!

I shall keep all informed just in case anyone else ever has this problem

Right finally got it working! It took some time but I managed to revive it!

1) Connect your device in bootloader (Hold light button, power button, and reset),
2) Open Windows Mobile Device Center and in connection settings uncheck Allou USB Connections,
3) Goto contol panel-administrative tools-services and start windows mobile device connectivity and windows mobile device 2003 connectivity,
4) goto device manager and find your device and update the driver to the one that can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313001&highlight=vista (it is the one in the modem folder, do not follow their instructions, it will not work in this case),
5) Open task manager and kill wmdc.exe, or anything with wm infront of it, also kill mobsync.exe
6) Goto: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader and follow the instructions (you should be able to see USB as an option now).

In mtty it took a couple of commands before it actually executed then once finished it looked as though it were completely dead, but connect the uni to the comp again in bootlaoder mode and all should be well!

PS could someone put this in the wiki under the title "If mtty does not have the USB option in vista" I'm being a dunce and don't really know how to do it :P
