There are two possibilities to flash a device:
1. In Bootloader via SD Card
2. Normal booted device via Active Sync
But i do not know what you mean with USB Flash Mode
Stefan
thanks for replying back now i have new problem
i have a big problem and i think your the only person who can help me my problems occured when i went to flash my wallaby device with this rom ftp://xda:[email protected]_ENG.exe/
i wish i never bothered the device was perfectly running fine until i flashed it with this via usb it all was a succes when i done a hard reset i got a screen with a oz up logo and underneath it says "microsoft internal use only" this operating system image is meant for use only by microsoft employees and contractors ,,and the crazy thing is i cannot enter my bootloader which was v5.15 so i can flash it via sd card its vanished no bootloader only that screen and on the bottom right corner it says ,,g32s54,v4.08,3.04 when i plug it in usb all i get is a unknown device and i cannot flash it so please if there is a way even if its pretty technical i would be honoured if you can help me out i would be very grateful if u cn show me a way of getting the bootloader back many thanks

hi i,m really upset if i can only get acces to the bootloader i can atleast flash it via sd card so please if theres a way of getting back the bootloader or somehow flashing it back please any help would be appreciated
radio stack
had same sort of problem this is how i fixed it go here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
don't use the 4.16 use the rs 4.21 when i did the upgrade i was then able to connect to active sync then changed the rom try the special rom 1.2
hope this helps
mate the problem i have is that i cant acces the bootloader for me to do anything its gone and this happened after using that dodgy rom
all i want to no is there a way of putting back the bootloader on to the device as its not there its been somehow erased after the flash i done
mate if you try what i said to try this should help you to connect your phone back to your pc then you can change the rom from there you shold get bootloader back when you put a new rom on
i posted this in another thread but no one replied so thought this one mite be more busy.
i am new to all this and i stupidly went running into things and tryed to ROM upgrade my t-mobile MDA Vario II (HERM300), not knowing i had to CID unlock first, it has broke! when i boot it up i can not get passed the t-mobile splash screen and it also flashes "no-gsm". i have read many suggestions on fixing this but i have had no luck. i can get into the boot screen however and get the red green and blue stripes.
i have IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.04.
it will allow me to connect to my PC with USB but active-sync does not recognize i have connected the phone.
please help someone. i just need a way i can get this thing working again. if i could just get the phone into a state of use again that would be good.
please help, at least let me know if Ive got a chance of repairing it
i believe if you can get it in to bootloader mode you can flash back to original rom and start over
i thought that to but when i tryed the t-mobile rom it said "connection error" and also said it should be connected through active sync. but then agen it mite of been the wrong t-mobile rom but im sure it was for the vario ii. do you have a link to the one i should try please?
i downloaded the official UK shiping rom from t-mobile site and upgrading now through bootloader. will report on what happens.....
nope, keep getting "device not responding" or "connection error". any other sugestions?
i looked on here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick and it says that i have to "Flash any type2 radio in NBF format. If that doesn’t work, flash the radio using HERMflasher" please could someone tell me how to do this, if this is the solution to my problem or if there is another way around this. thanks.
please help someone i realy need to fix my phone
Cool down....
what's ur radio version?
Also have u read this? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SimUnlock - TRY THIS FIRST, before attempting anything else...
ok, i have tryed that "sim and cid unlocker" and i beleve that you have to connect with active-sync because when i tryed it when i was in boot loader it said that it was not connected but it was. i will get my radio version now.
EDIT: my radio version is: 0107
EDIT2: also, here are some other numbers (which i dont know what they mean but mite be needed) which apear on boot-up t-mobile splash screen, in red letters/numers, just before "no-gsm" flashes on:
M 05
S 04
B 06
D 1.21
If you can get into the Bootloader (Rainbow Screen) you should be okay (Not a Brick)
Go download a Radio Rom from the wiki.
Enter Bootloader first, then connect to PC. Then flash the Radio Rom.

I received HTC Herald P4350 to change Language from NOrweign to English.
I try to use HERALD-USPL-beta3. and Now phone is dead
Only can enter in bootloader mode by pressing boot mode keys
and Only show
IPL :1.08.001
SPL :1.08.001
and I try to RUN Orignal RUU HTC_P4350_NOR_4.17.409.3_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe
and many other tools.
But I always get ERROR [300] INVALID UPDATE TOOL.

Warranty got back my device back to life
Hi I bricked my device a few days back and tried all the stuff to bring it back to lifee but in vain... I finally gave up my trials and approached the service centre. They just replaced the motherboard inside and luckily everything seems fine now. They hadn't charged me anything as it was within warranty. Anyone in India if you need service centre address..

Though this site says HTC, I got my Dopod C800 serviced there...
Very few questions and cool guys.

Now I think that the reason of non flashing, even with official RUU, could be corrupted CID-block after using HardSPL on devices with low IPL/SPL. I've read thread about similar problem with Wizard. The question is: how to restore the CID block in our bricked devices? I'm not even sure if this theory with CID-block is a reason...
What do you think about such a trick:
- Run RUU on someone's working HTC device but only until the moment, when it wants you to click the last button to finally proceed with flashing. (This step is to let RUU to know that this RUU is correctly dedicated to our device). It's a kind of fake for RUU, cause our CID doesn't match the CID of ROM included in RUU.
- Next disconnect working device from the USB and connect your bricked device with launched bootloader mode
- Next click the final button to launch flashing in RUU application. If the process of CID matching was done before this step, the flasher should start and let us flash our bricked device. But I'm sceptic to this solution. If it was so trivial, everyone could flash his device with different ROMs so easy...
I can't try this trick cause I don't have working HTC. What do you think? Will it work or not?

D'you mean
working Herald or any HTC?
I have the same prob
I'm thinking about working device, exactly the same as this bricked one - in this case Herald. But all of this is only a theory. I don't have enough knowledge about the RUU flashing process.
My another idea is to swap only ROMUpdateUtility.exe, rapitool.exe and EnterBootloader.exe files from official RUU dedicated to your bricked device, with different versions of these files from another HTC devices just to test if it helps to recognize our bricked devices by RUU. Maybe the problem is wrong version of these files? But which versions are correct?
I'm just trying to find a solution to unbrick our f.....g Heralds . I know this is only a matter of time and soon or later we will know what to do. Moreover I believe that there are people, even on this forum, who know how to unbrick our Heralds but some of them don't want to do us a favour. I know what I'm talking about...

when i put password <Bs...> the mtty shows last thing ive running and phone shows a progress bar with 0% (like.. what uve been doing last time?)
i think we can manage it via bootloader commands
i know.. i know
(at least our devices run bootloader mode, is recoverable!)
it can be flashed by SD? how?
Welcome to the club...
As far as I know, SD flashing doesn't work because of the CID-lock.

no, it cant be possible! im not goin to pay HTC Herald
there's a solution, a HOPE... (u try to flash with original flashfile?)

i have problem. i was trying to upgrade to the wm6 rom and have gotten stuck in bootloader. all i get is the serial at the top and v2.01 at the bottom. did i just turn my jasjar into a brick? somebody help me.
lol
lol dont worry ur mobile in bootloader mod is normal , but if u want saftly upgrate press cam+on/off+softrest to enter botloader then check cable and upgrate ur mob normal use windows xp is better
I have got hold of a T-Mobile Ameo that's gone wrong whilst upgrading/unlocking, I believe they were using the Olipro way (which I've successfully done fine myself in the past) and it's now stuck in the multi colour bootloader screen which displays:
ATHE100
IPL-v2.02
ATHE100
SPL-v1.10.RP00
And although it shows USB when plugging it in to a computer it won't connect to ActiveSync so I can't get to the stage where I can re-flash it.
I have tried the hard reset by holding down the volume and pressing the reset hole, and I get to the prompt:
Press ACTION to restore factory default
Press Camera Key to exit
I then press the little nipple button down and it displays:
Restore default complete
Press Power Key to boot
Press CommManager Key to format micro drive
I press the Power Key and I'm back in the multi colour boot loader back where I started, and I canot connect to ActiveSync to reflash.
Any help to turn this paper weight back into a useful device would be appreciated...

Hi seckt0r,
have you tried reflashing the original rom for your device while connected to your computer in bootloader? ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Athena/Shipped_Complete_Updates/
another idea would be to try sd card flashing,(see the wiki) but you would need to extract an image from the flash utility.
One thing to note is you couldn't flash any of the newer roms as you are probably not unlocked
lakeman,
Thanks for the tips and sorry for the late reply.
I did figured out how to make it work again, and played a lot with the device
Already delivered back to the 'client'...
Active Sync issue is solved !!!
Active Sync 4.5 had changed the way it connects from USB Serial Sync Mode to RNDIS Sync Mode. So it can cause problems in connecting with PPC. Try install on your PPC the "ActiveSyncMode.sa.CAB" that you can easily find on Google & run it. Hope this might help.
same problem here i tried to upgrade with orignal rom tmobile uk but its show invalid vensor what can i do plz help thnx
got your msg ahmerp but I don't use MSN
have you tried some of the other shipped roms
if that fils you could try cmone s mtty solution to rswrite the vendor id

Can you post what is written on the bootloader screen?This will help define what rom you need to flash.
thanks lakeman
my bootloader tri color screen shows
I hv a new htc Athena (ameo t mobile uk locked).
I was trying Athena unlocker by olipro. I hv used this on a number of occasions and no problems.
With the present one it was on rom 1.12 tmobile uk and while doing Athena unlocker it crashed on first step.
In bootloader mode it shows
Athe100
Ipl-v1.00
Athe100
Spl-v1.10. RP00
It keeps giving invalid vendor id error 294 when I try to flash tmobile original rom
I have read olipro message who say that I can only repair this via pdocwrite. Apparently it’s the spl that’s corrupt so I need to repair this.
I will be very happy if u can help me with a step by step guide to repair the spl using pdocwrite or rswrite to change vender id.
I am using windows xp or windows 7 and I hv tried mtty and I can successfully connect to Athena and do info 2
It shows level=ff ie it is still locked cid.
Wdata also seems to work but even after password says pass I do not really know how to change the device id or vender id
Device id shows HTCS Þ?ÒtHTCE
I am told y olipro that this device id or spl can only be repaired via pdocwrite.
How can I do it..
Pls help me u can email me on [email protected] or hotmail.com and can add me so u can please provide me with a step by step guide repair my athena ameo
