Wizard freezing at startup screen

The problem appeared today morning, while listening music using tcmp. the sound stopped suddenly, and standard animated cursor appeared over tcmp screen. i closed tcmp, and the rest of the system seemed fine, i was able to mute the phone and entered my work place. After a while i noticed the screen is off and i can not turn it on using pwr button, although green led kept blinking so the phone was operating. after a soft reset it would not go over splash screen showing IPL, SPL (which are: IPL: 1.06, SPL 1.06, GSM: 01.12.10, OS 1.6.2.4).
I've tried multiple times and still the same, only difference is that sometimes I can see the cursor and sometimes not. I can get to rgb screen and "press send to restore" as well, but that's it. I can't remember whether previously pressing a key illuminated a screen and keys, but now it doesn't. I used to have problems with screen not going black on idle since few days, but that's it. What could have happened? And if the only solution is hard reset, please tell me, could I somehow backup my contacts now? I don't have activesync here so I have to wait till I finish my work to find out..
please help anyone...
rom version : 1.6.2.4 WWE,
date : 11/15/05
radio : 01.12.10
protocol : 4.0.13.23
extrom : 1.6.2.105
That's spooky. My MDA has the same versions of IPL, SPL, GSM and OS, and this morning started misbehaving.
What's this rgb screen you can get to with the "press send to restore" option?
How do I do a hard reset (I have a backup on SD) without being able to get to the Start>Settings>System>Clear storage control panel option?
Rgb screen is a bootloader which i enter by holding cam+voicedial+commmanager butons while softreseting wizard. the other screen i mentioned i enter holding cam and voice buttons, and then pres reset. that screen says 'pres send to restore factory defaults any other key to quit' and it does hard reset if you press green button here...
my problem seems to be over for now, i managed to turn the phone on while i plugged it into a wall charger (believe me, the battery was not a problem - i don't know for how long it's ok now, but at least i made contacts backup now so that i'm ok with a hard reste if i have to...
You both have old roms and could do with upgrading them to aku2 roms. (your device will be more stable) i.e. the first number of the rom will be 2. Please dont ask me to go through how to flash a rom because there are hundreds of posts on the same topic and read the wiki - shortcut top left of the screen. You need to identify whether your device is g3 or g4 but i suspect you both have g3 chips.
Now read & read esp the wizard upgrading forum and wiki and then when you feel confident - flash your device.
mu chipset is g3 based on my ipl/spl info... i wouldn't dare to ask anyone to explain the process of flashing, i'm not that crazy. only thing i'd dare, would be to advice me what rom should i use... or a way to determine this, since i know it can't be just any rom...

Looking at your rom numbers i gather you have a t-mobile vario - is it uk or usa rom or polish - i see you live in poland.
there latest uk rom is here ftp://[email protected]/Wi...Prodigy_2210206_109_21911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship.exe

Its prob best you sim unlock and cid unlock before you flash in case you change to a non-tmobile rom inc one of the cooked roms.
see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=249474
and read dr puttingham's tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
and now i have given you more than enough hints
p.s. by the way remember to write down your gprs settings and mms settings to use with your new rom.
thats right, its tmobile vario, uk one. it is sim unlocked, i'm not sure about cid but it should not be a problem. thanks for the hints, it really seems more then enough;] i'll probably have to use theese, as soon i have a spare evening...
you don't have to explain me the importance of gprs settings - forcing my wiz to work in uk's o2, then in polish plusgsm, then loosing settings and doing it again finally got me into a habbit of backing every settings up ;]
and last but not least, guys, yesterday i did my first HR ;] ...

You will need to flash a new ROM. I have written a page on the wiki which will save me having to write it out again, read it and then ask questions should you have any.

Error after Flashing

hi guys, first post on here, so go easy on me..heh heh
ive got my SPV M700....locked to ORANGE....and ive flashed it as per instructions with various roms...no probs.
only thing is, now when it reboots, whatever rom i use, i have a couple of issues with the display...
keypad wont show up when i press the "phone" button....all i see is a white screen where the keypad should be.
also, when i apply a theme, i only see the bars at the top and bottom of the screen change colour......not the "wallpaper" or "desktop".
no wallpapers or images i add to the desktop show up....
weird, as everything else works....wi fi, GPS..(dependant on rom used), text messaging, all work..
its just that themes and keypad dont show??
can someone PLEASE help me???
if there is anything i can use to basically wipe the lot off, and start again, il give it a go...even re flashed the original orange rom on here.....and the same thing happens.
when it reboots, the orange screen ...(or whatever rom boot screen i use) flashes up.......then where the green windows screen is supposed to show, i get a white screen, followed by the desktop loading....which is also white.....
Upgrade your hard spl to olipro 1.30, and use mtty to format your ppc, in this way you can have a clean flash of yr rom and avoid issues...
for mtty.exe you can find different topics on xda...
(credit goes to Eliasweb )
that worked!!!
many thanks my friend..much appreciated.

HTC Touch HD error

Hi
I am sure you will all tell me there are a million threads like this out there and to follow the steps previously posted but I think I have tried everything.
So I have a touch HD.
If I hold the volume + and - and press the power button I sometimes get it to enter the menu where it will go to the hard reset menu. If I then press the + volume button as requested this does nothing and then it returns to the red, green, blue and white screen looping round.
If I plug the phone into the power or my PC I get the red, green, blue and white screen looping continuously. I cannot get the phone just to charge.
I have been to the HTC site to get a ROM using my serial number but it tells me that it is invalid for my type of phone??!!
I have downloaded numerous ROMS from this site and they just wont install. In the installation procedure it doesn't recognise that I have a ROM there so it is obviously corrupted. At the end of this installation not working I have tried the recovery option which it says completes but then it wont installation the ROM after this and so continues to loop in the red, green, blue and white screen.
My SPL version is 1.14.0000
A step by step solution would be massively appreciated.
Thanks for reading!!
Just for further info. When I plug the phone into the PC I can't get it to connect via active sync as it just keeps reloading the Blue, Red, Green and White screen.
I have tried the mtty.exe fix running relevant tasks but the connection isn't there for long enough without it reloading the 4 coloured screen
help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally managed to 'update' the ROM using RUU_BlackStone_Orange_UK_1.14.405.3 how my phone still stays on the red, green, blue and white screen argh!!!
I really thought that once it had installed that would be it fixed!!
Any suggestions?
Someone please help!!
Can anyone help as I really dont know what I can do!
The only thing that I can get to communicate with the phone is the standard orange ROM. Even though this has supposedly installed correctly I am still stuck on the Tri-Colour screen!!
I advice you to do the Task29..
This completely erases your system partition and you can flash a new fresh ROM...and a new radio of course since the Task29 removes everything...
I will give you just a little guide - there are millions of guides how to flash.
1. Download: Radio 1.17 (!!!FOR BLACKSTONE!!!), USPL 2.5, ROM you wish to flash, Task29
2. In the bootloader (RGB screen) connect your USB cable and wait until "serial" changes to "USB", then run USPL and wait...phone reboots and you will see it say USPL at the top...
3. Run task29 with radio 1.17 (*.nbh file) in the same folder - google "how to task 29 xda" or something like that and you should find a guide (I think I read a decent one in Leo forum)
4. After you have Task29ed and flashed radio 1.17 enter bootloader again, run USPL and flash the ROM you want...I recommend Topix 3.6 for example - I use that one and it is pretty good.
You should be OK after doing this...google a lot while going through this guide because you will probably get stuck at some points...this is not detailed guide...just a simple one...
I hope it helps you.
Sopis is a HTC God!!!
Sopis!!!
Thankyou so very very very very very very very very very much!!!
Absolutely brilliant!!! I really didnt think I was going to rescue my phone!!
If your ever in Leeds I owe you a pint!!!
Thanks again
