I was trying to upgrade to the WM5 rom. But it went wrong and now my smt5600 is not booting up at all. Its DEAD. Anyone have any idea how i can get the phone working again. I connect the phone to the USB cable and there still nothing. HELP somebody....
Can you get it manually in bootloadermode? If that's possible, connect USB & reflash. I don't know how to get a typhoon in bootloader, that's something you've got to find out yourself.
Regards, M
[edit]
& the wiki tells you how to get it in bootloader:
the bootloader
enter bootloader, by turning off device, then hold down camera button, and briefly press the power button.
see http://www.clubimate.com/index.asp?PageAction=DEVICEFAQ_SP3 for more info
an easier way, that does not require the right timing for button presses, is to hook your device to usb, turn it off. press the camera button, it should immediately enter the bootloader.
The phone seems dead. It will not turn on. No lights. It seems if the flash memory is shut down. I tried to flash it with WM5 and look where it got me. I wish I can get to bootload but nothing.
I assume this WM5 'release' wasn't released by your provider, was it? Did they release any official updates & is your phone still covered under warranty? If so try to get it fixed with the claim that you upgraded with the rom they supplied. It's worth to try, cause I don't know no other way than a Service Center to get it functioning again.
BTW was your battery full enough or almost empty?
Feeling with you, M

Guy,
Please Help
I was upgrading my XDAIIi to Xda IIi ROM v 1.11.162. during which it show an error message and it just went blank looking closely at the screen showing USB at the top of the screen and the bottom of it has v1.01,
when put on the cradle it showing USB.
I have press the reset botton God knows how many times
Please help someone
Were you trying to upgrade to the rom I posted? With RADIO 1.03 in the filename?
You need to press the power, d-button down and the reset button all together.
Then run the update program again. If it is the original O2 rom then it should work fine from there. If it is the rom I posted then the update will fail initially, just run the program a second time without touching your phone at all.
Hope this helps.
No, I am upgrading from O2 website. I am sorry it not connecting to my pc at all. No sign of life ,
it only display USB on the screen
Try doing a hard reset by holding the power button down and pressing the reset button.
Put it into bootloader by pressing the power, d-button down and the reset button all together and releasing them at the same time. The screen should say SERIAL. Connect it to your PC and the screen should then say USB. Then you should be able to run the update.
If this doesn't work as a last resort try taking the battery out for a while to let the backup run down and start again. Whatever happens the phone needs to go into bootloader mode and a rom applied to get it working again.
Please, which is the D-botton you are refering to
The D button is the "Directional" button, in between the green pickup phone button and the red hang up button.
Hi everyone,
Before opening this thread i have done a lot of search about my problem but i could not find any solution. My pocket pc is HTC Touch 3450, it works fine but i want to unlock its CID. I tried every combination to enter bootloader mode (CAMERA + SOFT RESET, or CAMERA+POWER+SOFTRESET etc.) but when i try, it boots normally. Also there is no SD card in it. As i said everything works fine. I tried to upgrade its ROM but i got CONNECTION error in %0 of progress. I know to upgrade ROM i must enter bootloader but as i said i cannot. Also i can try to upgrade ROM via SD card but again i have to enter bootloader mode, but as i said i cannot.
When i try to enter bootloader mode it boots normally and begins the system and works everything fine. I dont know its history, i mean its my new second hand phone.
Anyone, any idea? Please help me!!!!.
Same problem here - 155 views and no answers
Phone turned off. Hold down camera button, press power button to boot, while still holding camera button until the bootloader appears...
If you can't get your device into bootloader and you have tried all options, which it seems like you did. Consider the fact that you may have a clone, where did you purchase the phone from? This issue has been mentioned before, and that was the answer to why the bootloader wouldn't load.
Easy way to tell is check the battery, it'll say HTG instead of HTC.
Tried that matey - no good.
You see I thought that mine was a clone due to the trouble getting into bootloader, but I can see no other reason to believe its a clone, Battery says HTC as well.
I have had plenty of experience updating roms on htc devices but this has me stumped.
unfortunately it is a HTG battery, then it is a clone When i try the combinations, (power off then push power buton+camera button) it doesn't enter bootloader mode.Now i knoe that the problem is being a clone.
My next question is, what is the way to enter bootloader in clone HTC (HTC with a HTG battery)?????
Thanks
same problem. please help
crypto 2008 , same problem here.nobody knows how to do this. please help
It's the same problem for all clones.
Seems there is no way to enter the bootloader mode
Clones enter bootloader by holding the volume slider UP and pressing reset. If you hold the volume slider up and hold the camera button and hit reset you can hard reset it.
Hello,
I wanted to ask if someone clashed with problem like that and knows how to solve it. I had 1.66 rom eastern euope and installed 2.08hspl, tried to install latest magldr and I am guessing problem occured because I didnt installed latest radio. Now when I am turning on the phone it shows white screen and green logo and stuck. Tried turning of the phone and holding - volume button when turning on that didnt make any difference can someone help me to revive my phone ?
So you tried to get into bootloader, but the thing is you have to try harder.
Bootloader should work just fine.
So again, turn of your phone. while the phone is turned off, keep the vol down, and press the power button.Release the power button, but keep the vol down pressed.
You can try the other way: hold the vol down pressed and reset the phone(red button on the back).
If you want to use the SD card method to flash something you still have to enter the bootloader, so you must keep trying.
Forgot to ask: did you manage to enter the bootloader or not, cause you only said it did not make any difference????.What does that mean?
I already trying to enter bootloader for the five hours, so I guess it's impossible, also tried that thing with red button it didnt load up that bootloader screen. The thing is that holding volume key down didn't work for me before to get into bootloader even when the phone was ok but it did install all roms which I tried so I didnt think that this would be problem either apparantely it is... Maybe youu have some other suggestions how to fix it ?
If you can make the pc recognize the HD2 then you can flash anything.
But i think that this is only possible in bootloader or windows or android.
So this is a problem.
No ideea for now.
Anyone help???
But you *do* push both vol. down and power buttons and keep them pushed until the screen turns on, don´t you?
I didn´t get into the bootloader as long as I didn´t kept both buttons pushed long enough... had to learn the "timing" kind of...
my verizon xperia is not recognized by either pc companion or seus. I am trying to do a hard reset due to the fact the lockscreen doesnt work. I have read that I can press and hold the back and search keys on front while powering on to factory reset the phone, however that does not seem to be the case. Can anyone give me some suggestions if the two button factory reset does work and that maybe I am just doing it wrong. And any suggestions as to how to get my phone to connect with seus so I can reset if teh 2 button trick is indeed not an option. Thank you to all in advance.
Doesnt anyone have an idea? I follow seus instructions. Power off wait 30 seconds, then plug in the usb cord to the pc, then press and hold the back button then inserting the usb cable into the phone... and then I wait for it to connect which it doesnt.
Please more informations.
Is your phone rooted?
Is your bootloader unlocked?
are alle drivers installed on your computer?
after that i can help you
greetz -Blizzrar-
No the device is not rooted or bootloader unlocked. it is the verizon version. Thank you for your help...
if you hold the "BACK" button, the LED turns green?
Are you sure that you have all drivers installed for Zeus mode?
plz Check that out in your systeminformations / hardware / SEMC Flash device
this must be installed. Maybe google this and downlodet this driver.
wait for reply
When i press the back button the light is still blue. I will google the drivers you mentioned. The only drivers I hae installed so far are the s1fastboot. What is ZUES? Thank you again
you will repair your phone with sony pc-companion right?
This works only in SEMC / ZEUS mode. The Led is than still green.
in the moment you are in fastboot mode.
then you holding the "SEARCH" botton and plugged your device the Led is blue.
You are in the wrong mode^^
Please holding the BACK botton, not the SEARCH botton.
sorry my english is bad i hope you can understand me
I want to repair it with the Sony update software if possible. However no matter what I do the phones light is blue, and pressing the back button does not change it to green. Also as I am not able to go beyond the lockscreen I am unable to enter into the phones settings.... I tried to do a search for the drivers you mentioned but I am still not able to find anything... the only drivers I have installed are the S1Fastboot drivers..
thats bad that you can´t go in SEMC Mode.
Please look in the developers area of the xperia play. search the topic to unlock your bootloader.
Unlock it and use the fastbootmode to recover your device.
Ok, I will start looking there. Thank you for your assistance blizzrar, I really appreciate your feedback and guidance
Hi,
I thought I could enter the Hidden Menu and change the Fast Dormancy setting into disabled, so I did it and wanted to reboot my phone. The phone turned off, and was doing its boot up procedure, while it started behaving abnormally. The LG logo popped up for about 5 seconds (so it didn't leave the bootloader), turned off for 10 seconds and then again the whole process repeated. I thought that was a bootloop, so I turned it off, entered Factory Reset menu, chose appropriate options and waited for the reset, but the phone didn't perform the action. Then I tried to get into download mode, but to no avail - the phone kept going with bootloop. I'm still struggling to do this; the only menu I could get into was the Factory Reset one.
Could anyone help me get my phone back into function?
D802, 20G stock
Thanks in advance!
That's weird. I always disable fast dormancy after a reset or a new rom flash and I've never had any issues.
What comes instead of download mode? If nothing, Are you sure you're doing it correctly?
Press and hold the power button for 10-15 seconds.
Plug the phone into the cable, then press and hold volume up and plug the cable into the computer. That should trigger download mode.
Thank you for your help.
I know that's weird, I've entered Download mode numerous times using the combination that you provided and can't do it this time. The strangest thing actually is that the factory reset menu does show up (though it does nothing), while Download mode does not - it seems to be actually unaffected by using the combination and is still stuck in a bootloop. I have no idea what steps should I take in order to recover my phone.
I forgot to mention that the phone wasn't even rooted then, which makes it even more mysterious...
Ouch! Well what comes up when you enter download mode? Fastboot? Black screen?
If you're still covered by warranty take it for a replacement. I doubt fast dormancy alone has messed up your device. If it truly has, then try booting the phone without a sim card.
Normally when I insert the USB cable with vol up button pressed, the LG logo shows up, then the notification of Download mode and finally the Software Update screen. But this time, only the LG logo shows for about 5 seconds, as if I normally booted it using Power button and does not get me into neither Download nor Fastboot mode.
Well, I took a look at other options in this hidden menu, but still, could it brick that hard even then?
I doubt whether I'm still eligible for a replacement, as the device had been rooted already (though it's not at the moment). The whole process also takes quite a lot of time, which is why I wanted to avoid it. Is there any method to bring it back to life?
I wanted to revive my phone using the method linked with flashing the whole partitions onto my phone, but Ubuntu didn't even notice that any drive was connected...
Am I doing something wrong? I mean e.g. is the combo Vol Up + cable still the same in D80220G? Is there any other way of accessing the phone through my computer? Can I somehow stop this bootloop from continuously happening? Doesn't the fact that I can get into Factory Reset menu help in any way?
Thanks for your help in adavnce!
