hi to all...
i have a trinity in my hands that i had to change lcd...
after i change lcd i tested and seems to be working well..
but it wasn't... the first problem i saw that was when i turn on,it freezes at menu after about 1minute...
after some searches, i've flashed with olipro 1.20 (till here is fine), and then upgrade radio..no luck, because when i tried to do that, it won't pass from 0% at any time and any version of radio
after that i tried to upgrade the rom;but one note,every time i made the 3 color "trick", the olipro 1.20 disappear and i have to flash it again (i don't know if it is normal or not).
finaly, when i try to flash the rom, it freezes at 13%, in all times i tried
i don't know what to do more, if anyone have any ideia, i'll apreciate a lot some help..
many thanks in advance for the patience...
best regards
Have you SIM/CID unlocked it?
no,but if i install olipro, does it needed to unlock to flash the phone?
regards
i tried now to unlock...
but it seems that in both unlock methods,the phone should turn on wich is not the case
Try entering bootloader mode and flashing back an original rom, depending on your device. When successful, your device will boot normally and then you will be able to SIM/CID unlock it and follow the guides from here
http://trinityguides.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=25&Itemid=66
thank you for your reply...
one of the problems is that i don't know wich was the original rom...
now i'm trying the many roms i can..
is there any method to know what was the original rom?
regards
Isn't it branded? O2, Vodaphone, HTC?
Check the shipped roms http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Trinity_Upgrades
yes,is an htc...
one of the roms i tried, i could flash to the end (one of cooked one wma 6.1).
but the problem remains, when reaches the wma logo, it freezes
any sugestion?
regards
Try an official HTC rom

thanks for the rom, but is the second one that freezes at 13% when installing
any more ideas?
regards
The only other thing I can think of, is that you have a bad SPL. Try the splxploit, see if something comes out. After the SPLXPLOIT, flash again Olipro's 1.20 and if everything goes well, try flashing a 6.1 rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308691
i did that already :/
my thought is that the problem is in the flash memory..
i'll try to give hot air in the flash to see if solve the problem because i think is not software problem..
thanks for the help of you
That's what we are here for, isn't it? To help each other. It's a shame it didn't work. Hope you get it sorted.
Hello Everybody,
Let me start off by saying that this is the worst phone I've ever used. I had great expectations from this phone but never mind - I'm going to stick to my Excalibur.
This is the first time in my life that i actually bricked a phone. I installed a couple of cooked ROMs and everything went fine. I have experience with CID Unlocking and flashing ROMs. Anyways, all I did was try to flash back to the original Rogers ROM from the Original Shipped ROMS thread and that's when my phone got bricked.
I have searched and done everything possible so far and NOTHING WORKS!
So far I've done this:
1) I have tried flashing the Chinese ROM/Dopod WWE Asia ROM as their official HTC ROM's.
2) Done a hard reset
3) Loads into Boot Loader and the boot loader version is
IPL - 2.21.0002
SPL - 2.21.0000
4) Ran MTTY and i got gsecuritylevel=FF (which means install shipped ROM)
5) Tried running USPL but no luck
6) Tried installing Rogers ROM from the original shipped ROMS thread, still no luck as it gets to 3% and reboots
I seriously don't know what else to do. This is just ANNOYING!! Ive been sitting here for the past 4-5 hours trying to get this damn thing to work.
Is there a way to downgrade the SPL so I could flash a ROM?
Is there a free permanent CID Unock available?
Is there ANY WAY out there to unbrick a Rogers HTC TOUCH
(DAMN ROGERS !!!)
Finally, I'm trying the SD Card ROM Update method and hoping it works.
Mods, if you see this and know of a way to help me out, please do or anyone else who knows what to do so my life is back to normal, please help. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Ok, I tried the SD Card method, it says Checking SD Card Contents and nothing happened, all i see is a tri color screen. The SD Card is 2 GB, is the only file present on the card and it was renamed accordingly (the .nbh file).
Please help as I'm going nuts trying to fix this.
Best Regards,
lukybandit
Anyone at all?
I've done all the searching I could and everything I've tried so far has failed on me.
I can get into the bootloader, get into the hard reset and even can run a mtty session and no matter what I do, it gets stuck at the HTC logo.
In addition to this, all ROM's that I have tried so far keep getting the Error 270 (Obviously due to not being able to even temporarily CID unlocking it).
I did notice a lot of people have bricked their devices and I figure if i can get into the boot loader screen then at least SOMETHING can be done.
Here is what i have learned.
I have the Rogers Touch, and i said SCREW IT, and going to pick up an AT&T Tilt.. I already have 2 S621's, 1 Tytn 2, and i need another phone for my dad.
I had the touch for 1 week and had the same problem as you. Here is what i gather.
1. YOU CANNOT - install the original ROM if you flashed the incorrect ROM
2. Because there is no HARD SPL, i used the USPL, which on reset will result in a CID relock.
3. In this condition, the only way to reflash if you can't get back into the regular today screen is a custom SPL, by Olipro or something.
But Olipro (i keep forgetting his name), charges 75 GBP which equates to $160CDN or so. I bought my HTC Touch used for $200CDN. Makes no sense to fix it. So i am going to try and sell this phone to someone who wants to fix it for cheap.
Sorry man, i looked EVERYWHERE for a fix, and there was NONE to be found, unless you use this guy , who has succesfully fixed everyone elses phone.
Honestly, if my phone was worth alot more than $200, i would pay him with no issue, but because the fix is the same as buying the same phone again, it makes no sense.
Are you serious?!!!
So there's no way for me to fix this piece of ****? frig man.
I paid for this and now I can't fix it?
Can Rogers find out that I tried playing around with the phone or not? I hope not because It's been only 3 days since I got this and it's been barely used.
If there's a fix, please let me know.
That's not even worth it. If there's someone out there that can fix it, please help - Thanks
P.S: Thanks for your response.
Did you to a reformat/Hard Reset on phone first and then tried to reflash?
Worked for me once when i ****ed up badly.
Reset Button and hold down Both call Buttons.
And maybe i should not ask this but you have removed both SD and SIM card?
I'm uploading a 2.26 Rom at the moment.
Doesn't Canada have Vogue devices like the US? (this is a real question i don't know)
Attached is a 2.26 SPL only.
How far does it get in the Flashing screen (45%)?
And here's Full T-Mobile NL Rom with 2.26 http://rapidshare.com/files/122419910/RUU_signed.nbh.html

Yes, I think I did do a hard reset but I will try again in 5 mins. It was a bad flash cause it stopped in the middle I think.
Yup Both SD Card & SIM Card Removed.
Im guessing the only way I could fix this would be - get the original shipped ROM but so far I was only able to find a dump and not an actual update installer.
My SPL & USPL is 2.21 - So what do you recommend. upgrading the SPL and then trying to re-flash..
Would the TMobile ROM work because my phones Rogers branded and no Canada does not have the Vogue.
In answer to your question, it doesn`t go more than 2-3 % and then gives me an Update Error (270)
ahhh...this is driving me insane.
Thanks so much for the help so far. Really hope you guys can help me out here.
The main thing is if it flashes SPL only in general or if it does the same thing.
You might even try just flashing the SPL 1.11.11 from Pof from bootloader.
Or just flash the original SPL.
If it doesn't I don't know a way of unlocking in Bootloader.
But more heads will pop up with some Flashing Nightmares experiences soon.

I just performed a hard reset and tried reflashing but still no luck. It gets to 3% then reboots.
In regards to what you attached, how do I go about doing it? Let me know. I downloaded the 2.26 SPL and the NL ROM.

Original SPL being Rogers (Can't find it anywhere except a dump)?
k I'll try flashing the SPL 1.11
- Any other thoughts, bro? Thanks!
Did u tried SD card flashing??
Yeah, I did.
I tried the .nbh from the Rogers Dump and it says Invalid Certificate. I tried this other .nbh which said Dead_Elfin, still no luck and the Dopod Asia
I'm so mad/upset and I've tried so many methods to fix it. Is there no way I can get the Rogers dump to work in any way?
Hey man!
Somewhere in this thread (2nd page) a guy refers to a ROM that revives your half-dead Touch, "if you trust him"!
But you don't have anything to lose at this point,
so check it out! The link to the ROM is still alive.
Good Luck!
Regards!

Erro 270, wasn't that image corrupt error.
Damn Olipro can't you help a Mod out yous.
Threaten to ban his ass.
When you say Dumped Roger's rom, you prolly mean dumped Roger's rom, then repacked with HTCRT right?
And not the official full Exe installer.

This is the most annoying thing I've ever had to deal with in terms of owning all my phones. I am selling this phone or returning it back the moment I fix it.
And I'd threaten but he hasn't done anything lol
I hope he does help me out.

i think its time we make it clear to everybody that XDA means SHARING to help everyone out and not to ask for money in return for something. XDA should only be for those ppl who can work hard for everyone without asking for money.
This phone was the biggest mistake I ever made in my life. I'm sick and tired of this already and I still haven't been able to get it fixed.

I tried everything that these guys told you to do, NOTHING WORKS.
We have an operator branded device and do not have an ORIGINAL ROM to load in other than a DUMP.
Thats why we are stuck.
I am looking for someone local GTA that might charge less, but yes your TOUCH is fukked unless you are willing to pay OLIPRO $160CDN to fix a phone thats worth $200ish.
I am buying a TILT today, its not worth the stupid touch to fix.
What a waste of money that was. I am so happy my TYTN2 and my soon to purchase TILT has a HARD SPL to it.
my friend owns an 8525 and all of a sudden it stopped working (cant make/recieve calls and text messages). i tried doing a hard reset and it didnt work. he called att and the tech guy told him that his phone needs to reinstall the rom, which also didnt work. he bought a new phone and gave me the hermes so that i can play around with it. i tried installing wm6 on it and at 15% the update stopped.. and the phone reset itself. now.. it doesnt have a rom installed and keeps on going to the tricolor screen. i tried the unbrick method (in the wiki) several times and still no luck. it keeps telling me that i dont have enough ram but the booting still wont start. what are my other options for fixing this?... my kaiser was bricked before and i did the unbrick method for that and it work.. i havent tried that yet but is there any chance that it will work..?..
he doesnt need the phone anymore but hes hoping that itll be fixed so he can use it as a backup phone.. so.. yea.. any other ideas for ressurecting an old friend?
thanks!!
Sounds like the radio rom is dead.... Whats the SPL? You have a chance if it has Hard SPL installed - should say SPL - 2.10 olipro.
If so, try flashing a stock rom first, then a radio only rom. If you get no love, flash a cooked rom on it. I'd do it using the sd card method.
It should work as a PDA if you can't flash the radio, but its a brick cos no more phone calls...
If he doesn't want that, he could sell it on ebay for spare parts...
Cheers...
I just went through a similar situation last night. I am running dvh_79's v16 (build 19965.1.2.3) Lite. I added his HTC Today Plugin from the sdauto zip file but didn't like how the Today plugin slowed down my phone, so I uninstalled it and that's when my radio took a dump.
I used the instructions in the Hard SPL forum post #116 to unbrick it using the same rom and radio .nbh files and it went off without a hitch.
The first thing anyone should flash onto their phone is Hard SPL v7. Even before any skins. It won't make you 100% safe from bricks, but I'm damn glad I had it on there this morning while I was reinstalling my phone.
BTW ultramag69, I saw a lot of posts by you in various threads talking about unbricking a phone, and correct me if I am wrong, but if I have olipro 2.10 SPL on my phone (which I do), is it possible to initiate an install of a ROM image without being able to successfully boot the OS on the phone? Does Olipro automatically look for HERMIMG.nbh on the SD card? That was a point of confusion for me at first until I ran the HARDSPPL.exe file, but then again my phone didn't brick to the point I couldn't boot the OS.
What are the choices if you cannot boot OS? Are there any that can be performed from the bootloader itself?
Thanks.
well.. i did the kaiser unbrick procedure.. the mtty thingy.. it kinda worked. after that i installed the dopod wm6 rom... it handled the wm6 well---for a while.. after booting, the phone would turn off by itself (w/ 100% battery of course) or even restart itself..
sometimes it will stay on and be "fully functional" (w/o the calling and messaging still...) but somehow freezes when i look at the device information, specifically in the page where it displays the imei (which is missing btw...)..
the "phone" function doesnt work either, as it doesnt show the dialer.. and then after a few minutes, the phone finally freezes...
idk why this happens.. i tried installing other roms but the rom update always freezes. i tried 4 different roms already... so i had to do the mtty thing again...
(i have hardspl installed)
Codevyper, IF YOU HAVE hARD SPL INSTALLED, yes you can run the os flash. Just put the sd card in and reset. As the Hermes is going to the bootloader anyway it will recognise the flash file "hermimg.nbh". I've successfully fixed my phone when thats happened.
akosiryan, it sounds like you may have a corrupted radio rom. This is not gonna make you happy but this is ,at this point, almost 100% unbrickable. You could try to flash a radio only rom - no os, just the radio - but if it gets stuck and you've tried the stock rom then it looks like its a permanent brick...
You should be able to use as a PDA if you don't play with the phone functions though...
Just as a last shot, you could always use MTTY to check for bad blocks BUT this requires you to downgrade the SPL to 1.10 olipro to fix if you do. Please note though that sometimes the carrier does give you a couple of bad blocks to "brand" it as theirs...
Best of luck.

Thanks ultramag69! I am indeed running olipro 2.10 on my phone so it makes me feel better knowing that if I can get the nbh on the card, then I can flash the ROM that way.
oh well.. me and my friend decided to sell his phone on ebay or sumthin..lol.. so its not a problem.. ill try to do one last step tho.. like flashing the radio only rom to see if itll work.. but i dont really care anymore.. lol.
No problem... If the Ebay from where you're from is like Aussie ebay, you should get approximately 1/2 to 2/3 the price that the working models go for. Generally the price goes up about 6 hours before the end of the auction with the price skyroketing in the last 10 mins... I'd probably give it a few days on Ebay to make sure people see it....
If you do get the radio rom working, Hermes (jasjam/dopod 838 pro) go for about $250 - $350Aud in Oz.
Cheers...
ok then! thanks
Hi guys, I've a problem with my HD2 and maybe one of you has an idea of how to fix this, because I really don't want to send it in for a repair
Anyway, my phone decided to refuse to boot out of nowhere. When it happened I had Artemis v9 or v10 installed on it. The funny thing is that I didn't flash anything when the problem occured.
Whenever I start the phone I only get a white screen. Luckily, I can still access the bootloader, even thought that didn't help me until now.
my guess is that the Radio is somehow corrupted, because when I try to flash a new one I get the error saying "Radio_V2 failed" and "Update Terminated". Not even flashing with task 29 works, because I get a "Error 270" and the phone restarts itself after like 4% of flashing.
I'm really out of ideas, I tried to flash a lot of different roms and radios, even the rom that the HD2 came shipped with.

What radio (if any) have you flashed? Check the ROM's dedicated thread you want to flash and see if the radio is compatible.
Im betting you've flashed the wrong radio
take the rom it was shipped with, name the nbh file to LEOIMG.nbh, copy it to your sd card and go into bootloader.
it will flash your old rom and should overwrite the old radio.

I installed Radio 2.06.51.07, which was recommended as far as I know.
I tried to install every "official" rom that I could find, but no matter if I apply them via SD card, USB or .exe, the install never finishes.
Tried to install just the OS without a radio and that worked, so I'm almost sure it is somehow radio related.
Now the problem is that I can't even send it to T-Mobile, because I there is no way to get rid of HSPL. BTW, it's the german T-Mobile we are talking about, not the US one. Is there a chance they won't notice the HSPL...?
so flash this one over sd-card: german t-mobile 1.72
what about performing hardreset? does the phone boot?
DN41
Tried flashing the TMO rom, but no luck either
Hard reset is strangly fast (only takes like 7 seconds) and only gives me a white screen after reboot. Apperently the HD2 shows me that HSPL is intsalled in the bootloader, but I can't change the SPL...
Already tried HSPL2, but no matter what option I choose, my bootloader always stays at 1.42 HSPL.
Edit: I would like to post pics of the error I get when flashing from the sd card or the bootloader screen, by the board rules don't want new users to post links.

I have exactly the same problem.
I believe radio hardware of my HD2 has failed.
This is not related to flashing an incompatible radio, as I have flashed 1.66 official ROM about three months ago and had no problems until now.
I got the white screen, when phone was in my pocket.
Not possible to update radio, update fails with "Radio_V2 failed" and "Update Terminated".
Not possible to flash any rom, flashing fails when it comes to radio part.
MTTY didn't help as well.
I see no way but to send it back for repair.
Hope they dont realize HSPL, as it is also not possible to change SPL right now.
Hi everybody, i am facing the same issues with my knew HD2. The fact is that i received it yesterday, while trying to flsah ENERGY ROM ..i flashed also the radio .. now got the white screen with the HTC green logo, and no way to hard reset ... phone doesn't boot, can't do anything !!!!!! volume + and volume - doesn't work !!! any idea any solution ?? I am about to try flashing with the memory card but no idea if it will work, im not sure cause even the HSPL doenst appear ... anu idea ?
I've got the same problem
Mine is a Telstra (Australian) HD2, and I've been using it for about 3 weeks fine. Then a few days ago, I took it out of my pocket, and it's dead. With my one, most of the time I just get a blank screen (no HTC), and most of the time it's slightly yellow.
I'm having the exact same problems, and have done everything suggested on this page, and others. I can't send mine back either.
I'm guessing since no one's replied, there's not really a solution to this.
If it is a failed radio, I'm amazed how easily they fail, and how many people seem to have this problem.
I have the same problem today. Anybody help?

i had the same problem with my Telstra T9193. i couldnt find any solutions so its on its way back to australia under warrenty.
I had a similar problem to this, though it appears I just fixed it. I can only imagine it's just a temporary fix though, as I previously managed to get it working and running Android only to white screen again the next day.
I did a hard reset and now it loaded the white HTC screen and nothing else. I tried installing a stock ROM from the MicroSD card and got the same "Update Terminated Update Fail" error because of the Radio. Retried the update about 3 times, and it eventually installed fine.
same here, i reloaded a stock from sd to relock it, which i highly recommend for anyone having this problem - in case it needs to go for repair and it just happens to boot..it took quite a few tries to have a proper flash and it booted only a few tries afterwards and then went back to only booting the white htc screen. so frustrating. and unfortunately for me it has to go back to australia for warrenty and will likely take ages to get back
I was stuck at multi color boot screen after hard reset. Tried multiple roms.
Solution: Use the 2.13 rom from here. Worked thankfully!
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655653
After being looooong on this forum, I finally got my first bricked HTC. I got all the same problems, white screen, no way to get HSPL gone, and no update via SD possible, no ROM update via USB in bootloader and no radio update possible...
Anybody knows how much it costs if I send it to HTC and they find yout it has been HSPL-ed?
Next with the bricked HD2
So definitely I´m in the same situation.. I have unusable SMARTPHONE!!
Even worse, because in my case i have no chance to send it to warranty repair - I was too disparate and curious so I opened my HD2 to look for an backup battery to erase everything that could have resist my countless tries to reflash, hardreset, flash RADIO, flash ROMs...
At the begging was the same (btw the same is still) : I took my phone and it did´t answer for waking it up. So I pressed red button to (soft)reset it. But it booted only to white screen (not the HTC one but "pure" withe w/o logo, w/o software info but with slightly yellow hue)
This was almost whole week ago... During that time I tried almost everything (I don´t have gold card - since I can´t get CID of any SD card I´m not able to have one and have installed HSPL 2.08 I´m ABLE to FLASH any ROM - even successfully reflashed cooked ROM via SD Card.!!) and the answer for me is probably some hardware problem....

This was almost whole week ago... During that time I tried almost everything (I don´t have gold card - since I can´t get CID of any SD card I´m not able to have one and have installed HSPL 2.08 I´m ABLE to FLASH any ROM - even successfully reflashed cooked ROM via SD Card.!!) and the answer for me is probably some hardware problem....

I'm sorry, I just sent my to the repair center. Hope they will repair it under warranty. Otherwise it will cost me 100 Euro, just to find out I have to pay for the repairs. Then I can choose to let the device there (then I don't pay 100 euro) or let the device ship back (I pay 100 euro for a brick) or let them do the repairs which they will say how much it will cost on top of that 100 euro ..... stress ....

With the radio bricked there are only two things you can try to do:
1- You can go on using your hd2 without updating the radio. Try to download a rom without radio and install it, or ask a cook to prepare a rom (you can try an official rom if you want to recover the original SPL) without radio for you.
2 - Do what I did and sell the phone as bricked, because there's no way to unbrick radio system. I tried to save my HD2 by recovering the original SPL and sending the phone to the htc customer service. I got the phone back after 2 months and it was still radio bricked

upload a pix of your bootloader screen,I had similar kind of problem.I 've been through a lot of hardship dealing with the that.Maybe i could help u a bit.
a similar question has probably already been posted
i have a tmobile hd2
i successfully hardspl to it
i flashed the energy reference rom
then i realized that i needed to use the task29 tool before
i flash any rom... did that, hard resetted, and then tried flashing again (energy referecne) using the sd card method
and i just get stuck on the "NRG" screen
tried the other custom ruu method getting the same results
using the radio 2.07.50.27
i put back the regular spl to flash a stock rom but still no luck
i know the phone isn't bricked i can get to boot loader, hard reset
any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance!
Thanks!

ok as from my knowledge you dont necessarily need to do task29 if its ur first time flashing (cuz i didnt and i got very good results) so i think u messed up in tht part.. but its ok, now you prolly want to first --> do a task29 again... second ---> get the nrg rom and flash it.... third -->get a radio of 2.10 or higher and flash tht....and just to play safe flash everything using custom ruu (i got better results using them...just saying)... also when u do each flash and its suspenseful dont boot up the phone, just take out the battery and back into bootloader.
hope this helps... report back lol
^thanks man
Okay so heres how it goes, my phone is def not bricked
custom ruu has only worked once for me
now whenever i try to use it it always gets stuck at 8%
i found that if i flash it at night and hard reset. wait til morning and turn on the phone
then it loads past the nrg screen and into the OS.
i'm currently trying to get it back to stock and i downloaded the tmobile update
but it doesnt seem to work, it also keeps stopping at 8%
i disable the anti virus stuff and i plug it in to the back of my computer
sounds like a defect
sorry to bust your bubble bro but it sounds like you got a classic case of a defective leo, i too did the same steps you did and it turns out my main board wasn't any good and the phone kept overheating, turns out when flashing custom roms they tend to put more pressure on the snapdragon then a regular stock t mobile rom. i know this sounds crazy but i believe it to be true, so with that said you got two options, one get back to t mobile customer care and get a replacement. or do what i did and find a repair shop and let them know that your leo either needs a new mainbaord or a new heatskin like mines did, it cost me 80 dollars which wasnt bad since my leo was a gift and i couldnt give it back to t mobile... hope that helps in some way
p.s. sorry for the edit but if you cant do either of those of what i suggested, try this get yourself a nice icepack nthe size of your phone and mount the leo on top of it whenever your using it, so that sucker wont overheat. once again i hope i helped
