I tried to do a hard reset and the black screen came up and when i pressed the green button it tried to format the jamin but then came up with format failed
I then managed to get the device in bootloader mode by camera + reset
then let go of reset and press power once and that got me in bootloader mode, I then tried to install the new rom again and went to 86% and said error [326] This NBF can not be used with your PDA phone. Please check your NBF file. I than took the battery out of the imate device and when put it back in the phone wont even load of anymore its just black and dead. I know it isn't the battery because before I tried the hard reset I charged up the battery to full and i know there is definately nothing on the screen its black and when trying to plug it in via usb can not estqablish connection no more. I feel that this was a hardware issue from the start and is there anything else which i coulld try to prove otherwise? or do i need to send back to service centre? all help much appreciated

I upgraded my device (PW10B1, Wallaby 5.15) from PPC2002 to WM2003final downloaded from http://www.romkitchen.de, I used SD card type-1 and the writing completed successfully but after cold reset, Wallaby boot screen showed up again and stopped with "GSM OK" message and won't go any further. Please help, Thanks.
When you get GSM OK, you are in the bootloader.
Maybe a malware of your powerbutton....
if you just do a softreset, what happens without touching the powerbutton?
Stefan
actually I got the device in damaged condition from a friend, before upgraded it won't boot to windows, it was just keep displaying Wallaby boot screen with "GSM ERROR" message when turned on. After upgrade process and soft reset (with and without touching power button, the results are the same) Wallaby boot screen is still displayed but the message is "GSM OK". I'm thinking the same thing, the power button may be damaged somehow, I'll try to check that, I'll let you know what comes up. But is there any other possibility for the problem? Thank you very much Stefan.

No, normaly not, btw. i do not know any possibility.

power button
I tried to work on the power button, opened the device and take a good look at the switch, physically it looked just fine. Well, guess I just have to let that one go :? Thanks for the help Stefan.

Hi thejoyo, have successful you recovered your wallaby? I have exact problem:
1. The device automatically enters bootloader 5.22, says GSM OK and then stop. Buttons dont work, except for two reset button.
2. Charge led (usually amber when charging) turn RED
3. I managed to flash the device by SD card method but did not success. When i put SD card into device and reset, it automatically flashed itself!!! Without my permission, didn't press OK button!!! It's very strange. Then it said that flash success, cold reboot. I press reset button and it enter bootloader again, like i have never flashed it.
I have tried many SD card, still no luck.
Should I try something else? Please suggest me what to do next!
Okay folks as it says in the middle of upgrading the rom my PC resets (power outtage) and it was 51% complete now I have the dreaded rainbow screen and I can't sync with the PC any longer, have I destroyed the phone and locked it forever I have done a hard/soft reset and still the rainbow screen! Any help would be appreciated.
Can no one help me??
Hey this stuff happened to me, dont be scared. its really simple this is what i did, i just turned off the phone then put it in tbe boot load mode i.e hold the camera button down for like 3 seconds after the 3 second plug in your oc cable. it should turn on. then start the upgrade program again. It will do the upgrade all over again.
dont let the comp reboot again.
tip make sure all programs and stuff are not running. just keep the computer at minimal(activies) all should go well.
My Trinity is stuck at the hard reset screen where it says "Press SEND to restore factury default, press END to quit". I've tried to hard reset it as it told me to, but it's still stuck. I've also tried to flash it with a new ROM, but that's hard as it's unable to establish an activesync connection. Is there any way I can fix this myself ?

Have you got to the multi coloured screen after doing the hard reset (Power button+Camera button+soft reset)? If yes then you should be able to plug your Trinity into the PC and flash a Rom.
I had a similar problem while trying to flash a new rom and this worked for me. You could also try removing the battery for more than 3 secs then powering up and attempting the above tasks. Best of luck, most of all don't give up and keep searching the forums.
No, it just went back to the hard reset screen again. But I found out, I placed the buttons wrong when I changed them, so the two softbuttons were pressed all the time. It's fixed now.
ANYONE PRO one can help ME plz...........
Why My HTC WIZARD Not Enough battery energy is it will stuck back at hard reset ??
This is my third hard reset and the first 2 times I was not that peeved at all but this time around I am quite pissed at this phone! I was careful with what I am installing and it was after getting the latest TMO update. Btw, I have TMOUS and stock (newer one). Anyway, I was not even doing anything at all when my phone froze, I was simply going to turn off the alarm (I use SPB Time).
Anyway, I soft reseted and it is stuck at the Stick Together screen. Tried many times and no luck so I just thought, wth, just hard reset.
The first two times I hard reseted, it was automatic since I got a message on my phone but this time there was no message so I decided to use the volume buttons and the end key button. The first time I tried it, I ended up with the tricolor screen and nothing. No message about 'this will erase blah blah.' I tried again several hours later and it finally gave me the message about pressing the volUP button to proceed with hard reset so I did. And after just TWO seconds, I saw RESTORE COMPLETE, press volUP to boot so I did and NOTHING. I am still stuck at the Tmobile Stick Together screen after reboot!!! I did this three times (volUP, endkey, hard reset, volUP) and it was always fast. I don't remember it being that fast before.
Can someone please just tell me what I can do to just get it work again? Does this mean I just bricked this frickin' phone??? I have not flashed a ROM (except perhaps to do the TMOUS update). Can I still make this work?
(I don't know where to post this so I apologize if this is the wrong one. But I thought since a lot of people are flashing their roms in this thread, someone have seen something similar to mine and can help).
I love this phone but this is ridiculous.
things to try

Try removing your memory card and doing hard reset. If that doesnt work try removing both memory card and your sim card and doing a hard reset. If that doesnt work try loading an original stock LEOIMG.nbh file onto your memory card and flashing from your memory card.
BTW, should be BOTH up and down volume keys and power button to get to hard reset screen. Then volume up to restore.
Hope that helps.

I did mean volume UP and DOWN. Anyway, I tried your suggestions but same result. Still stuck.
So I proceed as if I am updating to the newer T-Mobile version. I followed the steps posted here:
http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm54430.xml?
However, when it came to the part where I had to make sure I have active sync established, I actually could not tell as it shows on my PC that I am not connected but at this point I really have nothing to lose. However, that said, in bootloader mode on my phone I see USB when I connect the phone to PC and then it reverts to SERIAL when I disconnect. So I thought, what the heck, it seems to be connected. AND VOILA, I was able to flash using TMO's updated ROM (the one I had just before all these mishap). WHEW! As much as I hate hard resets, I'd take it over bricking.
Thank God for TMo's excellent instructions on that site. I tried reading the instructions for flashing here and I just could not understand all these SPL, HARDSPL2 crap.
If I have to do another hard reset after I set this all up again I am going to scream!!!
I already had some problems with my X8, send it to repair and I got a brand new mainboard. I got it back yesterday..
Yesterday I installed floyo v0.25 and it worked properly, just that I had some app installing issues that I fixed. Wihile playing Angry Birds my phone freezed, so It removed the battery and tried to turn it back on, but it wont. Its still vibrating when I press the power button, but it wont boot. The LCD light turns on and off every few seconds but the software wont boot.
I tried to re-instal with SEUS, still the same problem. Now Im trying to flash a original SE ROM with a flash tool.
If this doesnt work too does anyone have another sollution?
EDIT: I tried the x10FlashTool and wanted to flash the generic 2.1 firmware, but when I tried to flash it I got a error message:
08/056/2011 15:56:49 - ERROR - Error flashing. Aborted
08/056/2011 15:56:49 - INFO - Now unplug the device and power it on
08/056/2011 15:56:49 - INFO - Then go to application settings
08/056/2011 15:56:49 - INFO - turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging
The problem is I cant power my phone on to change it, If I could there wouldnt be any need of doing the flashing.
I've seen somewhere (although I'm not so sure) that you can charge your phone via pc if you press and hold the "back" button and connect the usb cable..Then the green led light opens and that means that it's charging...
Yes, that is possible. I re-installed with SEUS but I still have the same problem. Couldnt reinstall with PC Companion because it didnt recognize the phone.
I need to get into the flash somehow, wipe it and replace with original files, but the x10flashtool is not working.
repair it again？
I would have to pay for repair this time because I dont have warranty anymore.
How much would a new mainboard cost? But Its not a hardware issue, the software doesnt want to boot.
