I updated my rom, but now the phone only gets to the splash screen.
I have attempted to but the phone in the bootloader mode and then reflash with a different rom but the flash only gets to 1% before it fails with a currupt rom message.
is my phone bricked?
I dont beleive so.. if it's bricked, I dont beleive it does ANYTHING... like.. as in .. even GET to splash screens.
do the Hard SPL again.
Do you mean the hard reset I have tried this lots of times
and also the reset bring the spl screen up ie the triple coloured screen
but no joy..
Thanks for responding
He means run hardspl.
It's available in the Trinity WM6 forum - check the LVSW thread stickied to the top and look for hardspl.
Download that - flash your device with hardspl - then flash the rom you have been trying to flash.

I unlocked the phone using the v3 pof method and it worked and the phone calls were working.. glad i spent the time to do so and went to bed.. this morning i turn it on and it freezes in the att logo and doesn't go anywhere else.. despite soft reset hard reset and doing the two button stylus method...
so is my phone bricked or fried? it sucks cause it was working and not it won't pass the att logo... i can go to the tricolor by pressing ok and power button... any suggestions/
Try flashing rom, SPL?
ok, so do you mean go somewhere like here
http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8525/software-downloads.html
to update the rom spl? i think my rom spl is 1.40 im thinking this is the latest or not? anyway i think latest might be 1.40.3 or something while mine is 1.40.01
is this what you mean by upgrading my spl rom?
since i'm able to only go to my boot screen with att logo only i can't go to the device section in win6 and see my rom version ... so i did the ok button and on button to get to the tricolor area.... and spl showed 1.40.. so is this the rom spl that i have?
im hoping this will help clear the att logo screen freeze... if not i have no other options..
i can't even upgrade the rom since it'sat that screen always... does this mean i'm stuck for good?

you can still flash from that bootloader screen. see if the following link helps
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick
I forgot to mention i do have hard spl 1.40 ollipro
do i need to upgrade to the 2.10xx ollipro?
also looking at the unbrick from the wiki i need to
"flash only nbh containing os"
now i'm not sure where i can get this "nbh" file containing os and how i can flash it without being able to sync via usb cable since it doesn't get passed att logo splash screen...
BUT
I can go to the tricolor bootloader...
so if anyone can direct me on how i can get the "nbh" file containing os only
(not the nbh file containging radio only)
and how i can do so via the tricolor bootloader, i will give you a pat on the back! i have warm hands so you'll get healing from it also..

Pick a ROM (make sure it's OS only, most are), uncompress it, look for a file (usually. I've never seen a cooked ROM that didn't have this filename as the OS image, but one never knows) named "RUU_signed.nbh".
That that file and read the wiki on flashing the phone using an SD card.
I have a Herald 100, wanted to upgrade to WM6.1, Originally had IPL 1.08.001 and SPL 1.08.001, did Hard-SPL 4.7 as per Instructions, Phone switched off and never restarted, went into Bootloader and showed me IPL 1.08.001 and SPL 4.7 Yan then I soft-reset and now its dead wont even go into Bootloader anymore. Any one can help ???
you aren't supposed to HardSPL with an spl less than 4. You may also need a higher IPL, but i'm not sure.
I've also heard reports that even with the 1.08.001 IPL and SPL, HardSPL still works.
So... to answer your question
1. try charging your battery
or
2. keep trying you might get lucky someday
or
3. you've utterly destroyed your phone and theres nothing else you can do
I get into the Bootloader again, IPL is 1.08.001 SPL is 4.7 Yang, tried with RUU 5.4 but Phone dies after 1% and i get Error 262. Do I have to install RUU 1.8 which was on originally now ??
i'd try it, but i don't know if it'll work
hardspl modifies the SPL, which is what controls the cid lock. my guess is that the lower spl doesnt quite accept the same instructions, which is why it doesnt work.
there are some threads about people who've made the same mistake and recovered their phones. look at those.
I can help you, contact me by PM
ps. Thanks for erase my last post
hey tramuyo, how exactly did you do it? There's been an increase in the amount of people that this happens to, and i'd very much like to have an answer and you seem to be the expert on this.
ps. whats that about erasing your last post?
Did you tried remove HardSPL?
Almost forgot, what model? Language? and make? You may need to restore the original rom to unbrick your phone
Try to do a hard reset. Hit both side buttons... and post results
Hard Reset shows me a Screen Canon Yang with Vodafone Logo and in the bottom right Corner: Now you're HardSPL. When i try and RUU with the original ROM i get no Connection.
On the RUU 5.4 the update starts and after 1% The Phone dies and the Update breaks off.
The Way i see it can either:
1. Remove Hard SPL or
2. Try this with the right Files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1848145&postcount=5
Problem solved, flashed with SD Card the Image from this Rom RUU_Herald_HTC_WWE_5.4.405.1_4.1.13.34_02.79.90_Ship.exe according to this Thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2148052&postcount=27
Now I have IPL 5.04.0001 and SPL 4.70 Yang
Just wanted to mention, I have not been playing with WM for long, actually only since I own a WM Phone the last couple of month and this was my first Herald Experience, but therefore I have been flashing and fixing all other Cellphones for many years. The Herald Section in this Forum and the Wiki are not to well organised, could the Mods here maybe think of making a few Sticky Threads explaining the Basics to noobs in a Nutshell. I will post a new Thread later when I have a bit of time with my little Experience.

how did you uninstall hard spl in first place...
by putting back original spl
What error you get when you hard spl?
it stays on 0% and never move then it asks me to make a recover
1. Unlock your polaris
2. Than Hard-spl your device
PS: Only use the hard spl in the link provided. Disable your antivirus before procedure.
this might work.
thanks at first
but the first link cant be downloaded
and i think it is just an earlier version of hard spl 2.0
so i think it wont be usefull
From what I've read on a while ago on XDA, if your rom flash progress hangs in the middle of the process, it may be because of the fact that your current radio is too new for your 'old', original rom. You should try to flash an earlier radio before you flash the complete original (6.0?) rom.
And if you get it flash half of your rom, you probably didn't remove HardSPL, but correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not that familiar with it.

As I recall, the figures above indicate that you do have the original SPL. You should try to flash an original rom (if you don't have one, i have a dutch one here (wm6.0). If that doesn't work you should try to flash hardspl (hold the camera button while softresetting to enter bootloader) ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351964 ) and then try to flash a newer rom.
Where are you from?
Btw. I forgot to tell you that you need to flash an old radio too if you're going to flash the original rom. (if you don't have one already).
And when you have hardspl on your device, it'd be wise to flash a rom which include a radio.
I'll be away for a couple of hours, so I've put the original (dutch WM6.0) rom (incl. the original spl, but I think (dont know for sure) you need hardspl2.0 just to flash anything.) online here, let me know if your figured it out.
well thank you for all the help
but i am sadly informing it didnt work if the problem is the radio the i just need to flash another one .
it is just i cant or i dont know the right method to flash the necessary radio
would any one please tell how to flash radio from the boot loader when i dont have hard spl
Maybe a stupid question, but why can't you flash hardspl2? And do you have an unlocked device? You don't live in the Netherlands by any chance right?
why I can't flash hard spl 2 ?
actually I don't know
maybe because I am stuck in the boot loader
and sadly I am living in Saudi Arabia so we don't have much programmers around here nor people who have PDA
that's why I can't find someone to help
Can you describe exactly what you do step by step on your pc and pda and how your hardware is connected?
update: and tell me what messages are on your screen and if you get any errors
well first i connect usb so the pda directly starts boot loader (the screen with three colours)
after that whatever (ROMUpdateUtility.exe) i use the installing stops to give me this messege:
the rom update utility has encountered communication errors during the update process . the program will guide you step by step to recover from the errors so you can continue with the update.
this happens with every rom i tried including the har spl exept for the original rom it advance untill 38% then stops and give me the same messege.
if i try the (step by step ) process it ends up the same way .
anyway what i understand that my problem will end once i put (hard spl)
or if flashed another radio all i need to know is how to do either of them from the boot loader.
i have been so needy but sorry for that i am just sad about my pda i like it alot
I dont think it changes anything, but you do keep the camera button pressed while softresetting your device to get into the bootloader?
Usually your device only gets to the bootloader when you do that, but i can imagine that when your rom update failed and the device cannot boot a rom, it stays in the bootloader, but not in flash mode? Worth a try..
Tell me what appear in your PDA screen during boot. I want to know the information on the first screen like below:
R:
G:
D:
These information usually appear on the right bottom corner or your screen when you boot your device.
Hi !
My P4350 got stuck in the bootloader when I stied to flash a new ROM
Active sync doesn't recognize the P4350 anymore....
IPL 5.04.0002
SPL 4.10.0000
What should I do now ????
search for bootloader... there are so much threads with the same question
Did it fail during the flashing process? Do you see an error message on the bootloader screen? ActiveSync won't recognize the device unless it is booted up in Windows Mobile. If you can still get into the bootloader reflash the ROM from there. You don't have to flash ROM's connected via ActiveSync; you can do it from the bootloader as well.
It did fail during an flash !!
The only thing on the tri colour screen: is: IPL 5.04.0002 and SPL 4.10.0000
When I try to flash a new rom it gives errors, it starts for 2 seconds and than it stops with an error. (on several occasions different errors ==> one error at the time).
Post some of the error codes you get. Have you tried flashing a different ROM? You may need need to use MTTY if you get a ROM upgrade code message in the bootloader itself.
Ehhhhhhh what is: MTTY if you get a ROM upgrade code message in the bootloader itself.
I have NO idea what you mean.
I had before an TyTN and that was no problem ever (until it died..)

I'm a retard. You don't have HSPL flashed to your device. This is why it keeps failing when you try to flash a ROM. The HTC SPL on your device is blocking you from flashing unsigned (custom) or CID-mismatching ROM's to your device. All you should need to do is flash HSPL and then your custom ROM. Read the Wiki for this device if you need more information.
My phone was provided by Vodafone.
I have now Telfort.
I flashed Vodafone to Canonyang.
Then I tried to put the Dutch back on it and then it got stuck in the Bootloader.
Wasn't it hard SPL than??

I've tried 2 different HSPL now.
It goes well, even says 100 % on phone AND computer but than it gives error 270 'update error'
What now...
Have you followed this? I know it works for me...
I've seen it, but where do I have to intall the 3 cab files?
Do I have to install them on the microSD card?
Do I have to put them like this .cab or do I need them to unpack them??
please help!
Copy them to your phone, install all three on your phone's memory.
ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh How should I do that ??
Oh right. I'm retarded. You're stuck in the bootloader... Sorry just reading too many threads and getting confused. Have you tried searching for "bootloader" or "Goldcard" in the ROM development forums? There are tons of explanations on how to recover from being stuck in the bootloader.
Hi
Big problem.
1. CID Unlock - has worked
2. Flashed new ROM - has worked
After 100% the RUU says, Congrats... But too late i saw it was an ELFI ROM with 74MB but my Touch is an ELF 64/128.
But it booted! Once...
After the device has rebooted i made the screen settings and after windows has configured the device rebooted again.
After reboot the device doesnt come back.
I got the boot logo and then the screen will be black.
Hardreset doesnt work.
After FORMAT FAT & FORMAT IS COMPLETED the screen is always black.
Holding CAM Button and Softreset brings the Colored-Display.
IPL 2.24.0002
SPL 1.11.0000
A new CID unlock doesnt work because there is no active sync connection.
Flashing any other ROM works but it seems to have no effect.
RUU can connect but dont shows any installed image version.
If i click update the progressbar in the HTC display appears and goes to 100%.
After finished the update the device reboots and the screen is black.
Did i have erased my htc? Is there any solution for this problem?
*** EDIT ***
I tried this ht*p://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-359413.html
Now i have IPL 1.11.0002 an SPL 1.11.0000
Step G3/7 says:
Download T-Mobile 2.26 rom (ht*p://rapidshare.com/files/38880130/ruu_prodigy_226102_22610105_022511_tmous_wwe_ship. exe.html)and flash it to your device! Done? Go to step G3 / 8
But the link is invalid. (yes ive seen the space at the . exe)
Does anyone have this file so i can try this step.
Ecosys
try upgrading the IPL/SPL to some 2.2X version. and next time post in an appropriate thread related to unbricking, u dont have to start a new thread.
