Wallaby bootloader v5.15 when switched on

hi i recently switched on my phone witch worked perfectly ok before i switched it of and left it with my brother.........now when i switch it on and after a bit of fiddleing with the buttons i cant get it to boot up. all it will say is
"Wallaby
bootloader
v5.15 "
when switched on.
When i hit the contact button up the top right hand side
it displays a white screen which has "utilities" on it
When i hit the notes button up the top left hand side
it displays a white screen which has "Flash tools" on it
then it freezes
Whats wrong with it
[/b]

Normaly you enter the bootloader by pressing the power button and sticking in the little hole on the other site than the headset (soft reset).
Since your just pressing the power button, i would say the problem is the soft reset button. Lokks like it doesnt release correctly try sticking in the hole and get it off....

thats exactly what i am doing stephan...to get it back up to the bootloader........now how do i gat it back to an operational using device.......i have read as much on here about how i need to flash the rom..........and i have an sd card.........unfortunatly for me i never did a back up or did something wrong with it..........can i buy a sd card with it on it or will someone elses not do
Cheers

It sounds as if the soft reset switch is jammed in, try operating it/jiggling with stylus a few times or maybe a tiny aquirt of switch gear or wd 40.

found out from him that he was goimg to surprse..........that he did his surprise was to upgrade it for me, so he had tried to do this......i think he has overwritten the rom....can this be,,,,,,and if so how do i get this fixed

booting problem for O2 XDA IIs mini

I am having O2 XDA IIs mini and facing a problem that whenever i soft reset my phone it displays band of three colour Red Green and Blue on the screen and it do not boot.
when I press jointly communication button + recording button on the right side of the mobile and reset button holding other two it boots in a proper way
After booting the buttons on the mobile like up down send stop buttons stops working but when i press the messaging button and internet explorer button (Hardware Buttons) one by one the all the button starts working properly
please help me rectify the problem

I would suggest reflashing an official ROM back on there first and see if that fixes the problem. If you haven't ever falshed a new ROM on it you might also want to check and see if maybe theres some dirt or something keeping the camera button depressed. That would cause you to boot directly into the bootloader (the 3 colored screen), but since you get it to boot with the second method you try and it doesn't boot directly in to camera mode that probably isn't the cause.

Colored Screen after WM6 Softreset

Hello everyone,
the last days i am trying to flash my Blue Angel up to WM6 (WM5 would be OK too).
I tried about 1001 times to get into the boot options, but everything i could see was this /%&§ colored screen.
However, i managed to get it an installed WM6 sucessfully.
But now my Problem:
After softreset WM6 was gone and everything i could see, was this %&$§" colored screen again!
Back to 2003SE works fine.
I tried it many times again, stuck at the colored screen, after 1001 tries i managed it again to get into the boot options, and the same again, softreset ad wm6 was gone.
Anyone out there who can give me a hint, what to do?
I was wondered to see only the R 1.10.00 on the colored Screen.
Whats with P an G? Do i need it for WM6? Where to get it? Need i special versions for WM6?
Thanks for help guys!

I think you were doing just right, read WiKI steps more carefully for setting No Yes Yes and then pressing message button.

I was really... really really shure, that i did it right.
But you made me so confuse, that i read the Wiki again and again.
Testet it, and ist the same problem...
Just this morning, my XDA fell down, the battery disconected and all of my data were lost.
Might it be a problem with the internal battery?
Or is it normal, that every data wil be lost, if the battery is removed?

1. You did not made proper hard reset in WM5/6, that's why it could not boot. No suprise here.
2. Yes, read the manual - lack of power = HardReset in PPC2003. If your backup battery is dead (nothing special in such an old device) even a while without battery kills the memory. New BA holds the data just for few minutes.

After the flash process finished with 100%, i resetted with softreset and holding the power button. Isn't that the hard reset?
The windows software says, that the internal battery is 100% loaded but it made me a little confuse, that all the data was lost.
I really read the wiki

Could you send us the link to "wiki" that you were reading?

man, you really have plenty of time doing as much as 2k+ resets.
anyways... you need to hard reset your BA.
use the record+camera combination for hard reset.
like i posted in this link
hope that works

From the WIKI:
When the upgrade is completed, you must perform a Hard Reset
Press and hold the "Power" button, and then press the Reset Button. Colored stripes (the bootscreen) will appear on the screen.
If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, EITHER:
Quickly press "Record" & "Camera" before the versions appear at bottom right
OR press "Power" & "Camera" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66:
Quickly press "Record" & "Windows Media" before the versions appear at bottom right EITHER
OR press "Power" & "Windows Media" & "Record" buttons and Reset at the same time
You'll see three options on screen. You must change the second and the third to yes.
If you have a PH20B device such as MDAIII, QTEK 9090, XDAIIs, PDA2K etc, use "Camera" and the "Record" buttons.
If you have a PH20B1 device such as SX66, use "Windows Media" and the "Record" buttons.
Note: The "Record" button moves up and down the menu and the "Camera" button toggles Yes/No. When you're done, press the button in the middle of the D-Pad to continue booting or press the "Mail" button. A white screen will show for 30 seconds, while it is clearing your device in preparation for the new ROM to start executing
When the bootscreen, aka. the colored stripes is displayed, wait more, you are booting. The welcome screen to set up your device will appear shortly ...

[solved] 9100 stuck at boot screen

I think i broke my phone. I installed some keyboard layout .cab and i soft reset. Now it cant go past the screen where you see the IPL/SPL info and other numbers, and after time when it dims you can only see it in strong light. My PC doesnt recognize it anymore when i plug it in. Please, help much appreciated.
edit (heart attack over): for those who are having the same problem heres what worked for me: make sure the phone is shut off, then hold communications and voice buttons and while you hold them press powerup button for a sec. Keep holding those 2 buttons untill a messege appears, then press the Answer key

I can not describe how much you helped me, thank you very much!

Thanks!
Yes, thanks - i did the exact same thing ... installed a "New WM Keyboard CAB" and it never went beyond the IPL/SPL slash screen. I was worried for a bit!
Thanks again!

I don't think there should be a 'HTC' screen when you're booting into bootloader? I'm not sure, but just try holding down both the power button and the volume down button, as I think people have been able to restart the process after their phone has run out of battery or something similar. Hopefully everything should be OK once you've managed to access the bootloader.
Oh, and I don't mean to be rude, but use a better PC next time

phone wont go into bootloader , phone just turn on NORMALLY , but while there is no system at all on his memory he just stuck at HTC (green) on white background !
im suspecting that my VOLUME DOWN button is broken ?

Have you tried the back key?

power (end call) + back key ?

If you have magldr installed it should bring you to magldr menu which would point towards faulty vol down button ....

If I remembered correctly, some of the people mentioned that HD2 is quite difficult to brick. I think that you could still try to work with your phone unless you still suspect that you have a faulty volume down button. I noticed in your statement in Step 2 coloured red that you press the end key once. I haven't flash in a while but I think you should hold the end key with the volume down button until you get into bootloader mode (screen with tri colour). Don't just press the key once. I hope this helps.

I am sorry, but I think you may have bricked your device.
Sure thing, the european HD2 is quite difficult to brick. But your PC had frozen while you were in the middle of flashing. (right?)
It is like pulling out the USB cable while flashing. You can try flashing from sdcard. Are you sure you are not able to go into bootloader?

To get to bootloader press and hold vol down button and then press the power (end call) button. I do a lot of flashing lol

lol...i just noticed the threadstarter's point of saying he pressed the power key "once". So i thought that was a mistake. Could be surely from the faulty volume button. Don't see any reply yet from him.
