Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

**I just realized i installed mighty6 rom, is that only for the touch pro?!?!**

Hey guys,

I've got a sprint diamond and have recently updated the rom from a much older mightyrom. The phone has been unlocked since last year. Anyhow, after i updated the rom and copied my pim file the phone was running great. I then proceeded to install an ezinput keyboard and the system completely froze on bootup. I then reflashed to the mighty4 rom again and skipped the keyboard change. The phone has been running extremely smooth with fantastic battery life the last 24-36 hours. Now, my system boots all the way up and does not load windows default. (i have tf3d disabled) It comes up and says "win file may be unregistered or component missing" then says some "shellres.dll is unregistered or component missing". I now cannot use the phone and im sick and tired of reflashing and waste time setting everything up. I cant activate tf3d, freezes, nor can i really navigate without it freezing.

Any ideas guys? Im so sick of this.](*,)


(Thanks for the help)

The very first alert that comes up after full bootup is "the file '22#:MSPI' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."

Most of the time the other 3-4 alerts come up too.... This time i booted this is the only alert that came up and i can bring up the start menu but cant click "phone" or very many of the icons....


This is getting so frustrating....please help guys!

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

I'm sorry guys.... i guess i didn't do enough research....

I think i may have installed the herman file at one point, which is for the pro i take it?

Right now i have windows 6, which i think i linked off of the touch pro forums area....

Im not sure if their is a different rom6 install for the pro and diamond?

Anyhow, right now im installing mighty6 victor as it looks like that is for the diamond.

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

I installed the victor mighty 6 and it ran fine.... i then proceeded to copy my pim file and delete the old one to copy my contacts etc, and now the phone wont boot the windows default again and it freezes.... is the mighty6 or my pim file causing this? Man... sorry for the 5 posts, but im just trying to get this done and over with!

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

It might be the pim causing it since it boots fine the first time...... or you need to flash shipped rom first then go to mighty 6 that could lso be the problem. Have you had issues with soft resets turning into hard resets?

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

Im guessing its your PIM file that is doing it, since it seems to run fine before you install the file.

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

The phone will soft reset just fine.... i'm pretty sure it is the PIM file because the phone will boot/run just fine when i remove the transferred file....

I dont think i need to reflash to stock rom as this is running great without the pim....

Now the problem is that dotfred's pim backup program wont run on my x64 vista...is there any other way to snag ALL of my contacts off this pim? The thing is, the other time i flashed i copied the pim and it worked just fine after a restart...but then 12 hours later a restart caused the errors... i HOPE i do not have to trial/error 100 times to get the contacts on the phone and try to activesync, because that program is terrible....i did that before i flashed and nothing is left to sync back.


Thanks for the replies.

Omg... i just realized i was trying to execute the extracted .exe file on my pc not the pocket pc as noted on his site....therefore i could of used this to SAFELy SNAG my pim info before hand....

What a nightmare....the pim backup has a restore feature, but i cant seem to figure out how to restore a copied pim file, or if that is even possible....

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

I tried using a bunch of programs...finally i LEFT my old pim file there, but renamed it, and then transferred the new (current) pim file over, and so far it works fine... im just going to leave the old pim for the heck of it... i also installed sprite and was able to backup all the data....so i suppose i'll do a complete reflash of old to new and backup w/sprite if i have to....

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

Hahaha, it is doing this all once again.

24 hours later the phone begins to freeze....i cant help to think its the PIM file when it works fine for 24 hours???? now it boots and has a "MSINBOX" error and a few others.....im so frustrated with this crap.

If i can get the phone loaded once again with my PIM file, what should i use to get the contacts safely somewhere??? Activesyn no longer connects to my phone as it has an old "diamond sync" and wont allow me to delete it....

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

Eww. I would hope you got everything backed up and go back to shipped (go to Bootloader) then back to MR4.

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

That's what i was thinking.... I was able to create a backup (pib file) with the pimbackup which is like 8k and restored that back on my device after the flash with the regular pim file still intact... i suppose this proves that mighty6 is just not stable on my device because i don't think a pim backup containing ONLY 150 contacts can cause a whole OS to crash....i'm merely adding 8k to the device storage.

Anyhow, can i just find mighty4 and flash to that? i think i have to completely delete....whats the process of this? find a sprint rom then go back???

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

Try flashing shipped and going back to MR6. It could be a bad flash.

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

Well i installed a fresh flash of might4, which i can tell you i dont like already....GUI wise, i do not like TF3D, and much preffered the "windows default" option on the mighty6 rom...regardless, i just installed arcsoft and restored my contacts, i'll get back to this thread to let you guys know the result....

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

I decided to just try this rom.... i've flashed 10 times in the last few days so i'd rather not try mighty6 again.

Bummer, also mighty4 is extremely annoying because now it's back to the "scroll once scroll the whole list" thing...mighty6 had a much more accurate/responsive touch screen and allowed me to scroll evenly and correct on and page/list...

I also can't seem to get rid of some of the TF3D shortcuts....the today settings area doesn't allow me to click the settings even when TF3D is highlighted....man this is annoying.

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

That is because you are used to 6.5. Do some searching and find stuff out. MR4 is one epic ROM.

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

It's a mistake not to flash back to a stock ROM first, then flash the one you want, AND do a hard reset afterwards... It might seem pointless but it has been known to fix many weird problems...

Re: Mighty4 Rom will not boot windows!! :(
 

Well thanks for the information. Yes, mighty4 sure is a great rom. I can tell it's much snappier then the previous mighty i had from january. It all looks the same, but at the end of the day my battery is still at 50% and i've gone all day without freezing. I may re-flash to mighty6 in the future after following the complete/correct process, but for now, i think i've used RUU enough. :-)
