Turn of your phone, press the two soft keys and press the power button, then let go of the power button while still holding the soft keys. Then you will get into the tri-color boot screen. Then try to flash your phone again.
He says that he had flashed the wrong SPL.
The SPL is for HTC S710(vox) only,but he flash it into his T-mobile shadow.

but can not reflash official rom with RUU.
hikei say right
As the situation heiki said, master guide
who can help me!!
please help me!!!who can make a rom for my shadow!!!
Don't listen to previous posts
The Previous posts on how to fix this porblem are not correct. If your shadow gets a white screen, or will not boot windows fully, you will have to either reset the OS to defaults, or reinstal OS completely.
The First option is to Reset the OS to default this can be done by following these steps:
1. turn off the phone
2. Press and hold the two soft keys that are right below the LCD screen. (These are the keys above the Home Key and the Back key)
3. While holding these keys, press and release the the power button, this should turn on your phone, if not try again. (do not keep holding power key, but continue to press the soft keys)
4. A screen will then appear asking you if you want to reset your phone, press the Send key (The Key with the Phone on it)
5. The OS will then begin to reset. If this does not work, follow next option.
The Second and only other option is to perform a rom flash. You will need the original tmobile shadow rom. I've tried with several hacked roms, and they never finish while doing this. Download original rom from here:
http://wiki.allshadow.com/index.php/Downgrading_to_WM6.0/_Neo_on_the_Shadow_2007
Now you are ready to fix you problem.
1. Turn off you phone
2. Press and hold the Camera Button on the side of the phone. (press no other button with it)
3. Now press and release the power button (phone should now turn on, if it does not, try again. Do not release the phone button)
4. After phone turns on, it will then show you a Colored bar screen, this is knows as the Boot Loader screen. It has a similar purpose as the Boot Loader and Boot Select screen that is seen on PC computers.
5. Place phone down in secure location, and connect to your computer. (drivers may install after connection, let them install before moving on)
6. Open the Shadow Rom update utility that you downloaded before and follow prompts.
7. Once update completes you are now ready to use your Shadow Again. If you want a different Rom, go ahead and download and follow instructions for installing that rom.
Things to avoid this in the future:
1. ensure you are updating rom with phone on a secure surface, ensure it will not fall and disconnect from Computer during update.
2. ensure battery is full
3. use roms tested and validated by other users. Read reviews of problems and known issues.
4. Use tested, validated, and/or signed apps. (ensure apps are meant for smartphones with QVGA and windows mobile standard. Generally this is not a problem, but better safe than sorry)
So that is a step by step guide on how to fix your problem. good luck
Will this also help me?
Zephnath,
I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to my phone, but I upgraded to WM 6.1 a while ago. If I follow your steps to re-load the original rom will it also go back to WM 6.0? If not, do you know how I can change my phone back to WM 6.0?

Sorry to keep you waiting, but if you follow the steps above and you use the rom downloaded from this link http://www.sendspace.com/file/thvf9u you will have your phone set back to the original rom issued by t-mobile.
If you installed, or tried to install a rom not from tmobile, you will have to follow the second step I provided.
If you have not attempted, or do not have a rom that is not from t-mobile, then follow step one.
If you are not sure, follow step two, by first downloading the file I posted a link to above
Edit: Following these steps will put you back to Windows Mobile 6.0
So you're saying that the SPL from the OEM rom will overwrite the SPL from the Vox? I always thought that flashing a SPL from the wrong phone would brick it for sure with no takebacks.

What I am saying, is that following these steps will get you out of the whole with the white screen of doom, if you follow them. I've done this on not only one shadow but on two, several times. When going back to original rom, it works just like it did out of box. (Slow and clumsy) But at least you have your phone back, and with MyFaves again.
When you go back to the original rom, provided via the download link from previous post, the phone is as it was when you first got it. (Including the SPL, so if you want to flash a different rom on the phone you have to unlock it all over again.)
People have done this many of times. Often people have hardware problems and need to send the phone back for warranty fixes, but waite, they flashed their rom to 6.1. That voids their warrenty. So what do they do now? I know, they flash it back to 6.0 using the official update (the link I included) that t-mobile provided. They send their phone back to manufacture and get their replacement as if their old phone never saw a different rom.

First of All, I am Noob for all this flash phone stuff~~
I was using A-Unlocker last night on my Athena, however the phone got f**ked up
I was able to finish the Step 1 "Flash SPL". After I done with Step 1, here is I got from bootloader 3 Color Screen
ATHE 100
IPL-V1.00
ATHE100
SPL-V1.20. Olipro
and it unlocked Step 2 "Unlock Radio"
after the Step 2 there was a Notice popped up "Your Device must now be unlocked with a program, please configure your device and then connect and sync with Activesync. after doing so, click OK and watch your device screen"
and My phone stop at HTC loading screen, not able to boot to "Window Mobile" system. I did reset phone many times but didn't work.
Please Help Me Out here~~ Tyvm
p.s: I can still boot the phone to bootloader 3 Color Screen
please help me
Your device is okay. You can already proceed to flashing any ROM that is desgined for SPL 1.2. If you want just a good looking ROM, you might want to try PK3.0 ROM. If you want WM6.1, try irus ROM.
If I'm you, I'll skip any rom that uses SPL3.5 for the time being until you're sure there is a mean to come back to SPL 1.2. This mean you should skip AP4.0 for the time being.
To flash one of the SPL1.2 based ROM, remove your storage cards and SIM cards, and ensure your battery is close to full. Then get into Bootloader mode (by pressing down the Camera and poke into the reset hole - hold it down for a good few seconds until you see the tr-colored screen). Then connect your cable until you see USB on the device screen. Then on your PC, start the RomUpdateUtility program and follow the instruction on the PC.
Good luck.
Thx, man! U Rock!!
Just flash the phone with PK3.0 Rom~
Just installed "Duttys Topaz Leo Holy Grail R1 [LP]" on my AT&T Pure and I thought I would add some comments for the rest of you considering upgrading your "Pure." Overall the upgrade was a good idea. Lots of additional functionality, and the ROM is fast and works well. Here are a few comments;
1. When I tried to use the HARD-SPL in automatic mode, it would never connect to the phone. I even tried installed the HARD-SPL manual CAB on my phone but that didnt work either, it just froze the phone with the old AT&T ROM. Instead I downloaded the CAB that was mentioned in one of the error messages that HARD_SPL gave me. Once I installed that, HARD-SPL worked fine.
2. No more AT&T Navigator. If this is a tool you use, its gone. You can replace it with a TeleNav download however. I am using the download for the "Tilt" and while not perfect, it works. You can download it at;
http://tinyurl.com/telenavdownload
3. The Pure came with a very nifty and effective voice dialing feature that requires no training. I found it useful and accurate but it too is gone (if I am wrong, please let me know!). The new ROM comes with a CAB that permits voice dialing but it requires training and is not nearly as sophisticated but it works.
4. This new ROM is missing an applications tab, instead app shortcuts are integrated with the home screen. While this is nice there is no menu option that says "All Programs." If you want to run a program that is not in one of your 9 shortcuts, you have to go to the start menu and leave the TouchFlo system and go into Windows Mobile. This is pretty annoying actually (no fault of Dutty of course, its a HTC issue).
Other than these four things, I am pretty happy with the ROM and the install was pretty painless.
jeremiah.... I also have a htc pure and I am planning to flash the rom to duttys or any other rom... but I am new to this and I am looking at the steps.
1. I need to use the Hard-Spl first and then hard reset the phone right ?(but how do i hard reset the HTC pure ? I cannot find the reset button I saw a video for HTC diamond 2 but not for htc pure can you tell me how you reset the phone ?)
2. Then I use the ROM to install right ?
Please help me with the steps required
UPDATE: Restoring AT&T Navigator on the AT&T Pure
In a previous post I said that when you update the ROM on the Pure you lose AT&T Navigator and had to use a version of TeleNav for the Tilt instead. Well I have found a link on the TeleNav site to download the Pure version of AT&T Navigator. Here it is and enjoy...

mshenoy4573,
Don't worry about the hard reset, it is not required actually. The ROM upgrade is really quite simple. Yes, the first thing you need to do is run HARD-SPL. If all goes well, you will get the tri-color screen on your phone and it will install no problem. If you are like me, it won't work the first time. If it just hangs or you get an error message, here is what to do.
Do NOT install the manual cab mentioned in the HARD-SPL instructions, it just froze up my phone. Instead, read the error message. You will see that it gives you instructions for downloading and installing a different CAB file. The error message gives you the URL to use, do that.
Once you download and install that CAB file, run HARD_SPL again and it should install no problem. Just let the phone reboot and then with your phone connected to your windows PC, install the ROM of your choice by running the "wrapper" program. Its a piece of cake really.
Remember you will lose the nifty MS Voice Command application and I don't know how to get it back. In a previous post I give a link to download the AT&T Navigator if you are interested. Good luck!
If you don't know where the reset button on the Pure is....
I suggest you familiarize yourself more with the basic functions of the machine before installing (bricking <BG>) a new Rom!
Read the Faqs, and Stickys, All the info is there, but you do have to dig in.
No one really wants to assume the liability of completely nursemaiding
someone who hasn't even tried to find out by reading the wealth of info on
this site.
Be that as it may I'll try to pay some of my Karmic newbie dues here <BG>
On the Pure, Compact V and Diamond 2 (All the HTC Topaz series)
the reset button is somewhat cleverly hidden in the stylus hole
When you remove the stylus you will see a red dot inside the opening
that is the reset "button"
If you gently push the red area you will hear a click and the machine
will "warm" reset . Try it, it will not hurt anything and actually should be done periodically to free up memory every now and then or if your Pure is acting sluggish.
ONLY After you reburn your ROM you will want to perform a "Cold" or Hard
Reset as well, (This clears additional system memory removes all installed software and re-initializes some of the internal parameters to default factory values even with a new ROM) This should only be done right after a new rom is flashed in or maybe if you have really hosed up your machine and wish to start from scratch.
To Perform a Cold Reset you press both Up and Down Volume buttons Simultaniously and then depress the Red (warm) Reset button described above (in warm reset)
The other special button sequence is used to enter boot mode and actually burn
a new Rom (After you've copied it to the Device)
Ths is done by first turning the device off,
hold the Power/Standby button (top of Phone) until unit is off
(not just standby) and then while still off
Depressing Vol Down button (just the the one button)
and then simultaneously pressinging the Power On button (hold them both a few seconds)
This will bring you to the famous Tri-colored Boot mode screen (you can't miss it)
This is one of the ways to start the actual Rom burn/Flash/installation but there are menu options here so you can bail out if you are not ready to burn at this time
What you really should consider is bringing up this boot screen
and reading the info on it (write it ALL down)
But specicically notice the number of the HSPL displayed.
The Stock ATT Pure will say HSPL 1.83.0000 (thats the locked OEM ATT HSPL) After you sucessfully burn your new HSPL
if you bring up this screen it will say HSPL 1.83.Olinex
That is what you need to see before you can burn a new ROM!
I suggest you bring up that boot screen familiarize yourself with it
It wont hurt anything.
(verify yours now says 1.83.000 and after HSPL install says 1.83.Olinex)
Another few Pointer for the Pure
You can "upgrade" the HSPL in one sitting, your machine will still run
after the HSPL has been upgraded. You can check it out and upgrade the Rom
at a separate time. (So you can exhale!<BG> if the HSPL "upgrade" was good)
Its been a while but I'm pretty sure the instructions did not require you to
Cold Reset the machine before upgrading either the HSPL or the Firmware
(but definately afterwards) And since I remember you needed a USB and internet connection you couldnt have deleted the Activesync partnerships
(which a cold reset does, Anyone?) Anyway Just follow the instructions!
Last note On the Pure
I could not install the HSPL until I loaded "enablerapinew.cab"
this file is mentioned in the Docs and available as a link in them
I'm fairly sure all Pures will need to install it on there device as well.
Good Luck
Like the original poster I also installed Dutty's HGR1 and love it
I did have some minor anomolies because I did NOT do a
Cold Reset AFTER originally installing the new Rom firmware.
Most have been solved by the Cold Reset and re-installation of all my
software (PIA but worth it) but there are still some very minor known bugs
KJL
Actually cold reset on a Pure is "hold vol up and down, press power button", not the soft reset one. Of course do it with phone off to start with.
As for the voice dial feature on stock Pure - it's called Voice Command (Microsoft feature).
If you want it back after upgrading a rom search this forum for a Voice command cab. Install it, you probably gonna get an error at the installation but all should work ok. You can see it installed in settings/personal.

Cold Reset after re-flashing Rom

Hi
Its interesting you said that
you know thats what I originally thought and read myself
but not so sure now (I've seen both choices mentioned)
I used the Vup+ Vdown +Pwr after the first time I re-flashed my Pure
If I'm not mistaken, it just brought up the Tri-color screen and I seem to remember some confusion on my part as how to run the new software from there? (didn't want to re-flash a second time) I think I just hit reset??
Well I know I had a bit of uncertainty at the time if I had actually Cold reset
I eventually developed some anomolies in the system and decided to
re-flash and start from scratch.
This 2nd time I used Vup + Vdown + red reset
after reflashing and I had very clear prompts asking me to confirm that
I would be deleating all my data and installed programs. Which of course I did
and it then rebooted, this felt much more "concrete" than my original experience??
(Now this could also be due to the new firmware and HSPL as well? I guess its not "really" a Pure anymore after re-flash)
But I'm wondering if on my first Re-flash I didn't manage to NOT hold both
Vup and Vdown together and hitting Pwr just brought me to boot mode instead of Cold Reset mode. (very easy to do)
Anyway I do know for a fact I used Vup+Vdwn + Red Reset this last time
and it will work on the re-flashed Rom and everything has been fine and
very stable since (Loving Dutty's HGR1)
Just my experiences as I can best remember and interpret them
Be great if we got another few inputs on this
KJL
Thanks Ken,
Might work both ways, I remember having to confirm I want my phone to a clean original state.
On Dutty's HG - hope he can fix autotime when changing time zone
My problem is active sync wont stay connected when it my phone goes to the red, green and blue screen during the flash process. Any ideas how to fix this?

You might need to install the extra cab then first. Not sure about that, but you can probably get an indication of what to do by reading through some of the recent posts in the hard spl thread.
BTW, I just upgraded my Pure to Dutty's Holy Grail R3 (the Leo phonecanvas version). It works great. So far it seems like the R1 in many respects.
First thing you'll want to do is turn off the weather animation on the front page by selecting a non-animated wallpaper. That homescreen animation is designed for the HD2, which has a processor twice as fast as the TD2 or Pure. So I find that it slows things down too much for scrolling back and forth with the quicklaunch applications. But that's just me.
Another tip is to get the 3G icon back by changing the Reg Key: HKLM/Software/OEM/RIL/EnableHSDPAIcon to 0.
I love the Pure hardware. I just wish somebody would release a matte finish back cover to avoid the fingerprints.
hi there, im new here and ive been searching on the forum for a long time, but i didnt see any solution for my problem... (or maybe i was blind) so when i was trying to flash back original ROM from bootloader screen through USB, it didnt show my current image version info on the screen, but it did show the image version that im going to upgrade... however, i still let it updated and it said its succeed. but when my phone going to reboot, it stuck on the "stick together" screen... btw, my phone is PB81120 SS-B3 SPL-2.08. HSPL 8G XE. hope someone can help me solve my problem... thanks first :]
Go into bootloader again and connect the device to your PC via usb (should show USB at the the bottom in bootloader) and run the Rom Update Utility again. But first make sure the ROM is compatible with TmoUS Hd2.
I would recommend flashing stock from the bootloader just to be safe.
but i was trying to install T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_2.13.531.1 under bootloader, and it still the same... :[
Was that what you origonally tried updating to? Or was it a custom rom you had tried?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
that was the latest i tried to updating to, or any different kinds of version of original ROMs... before, i tried to update a custom ROM on it first, but it failed :[ actually, when i first got my phone it was unlocked, so while i was waiting to get the unlock code for it, i decided to install android on it... later on i had successfuly putting android on it, and by that time i got my unlock code too. then i typed it in and my phone just reboot and stuck on the "stick together" screen till now... so i started to look through the forum and found out that most ppl said is to reflash the ROM back to the original one first, and then everything would be alright... but i guess it didnt work on my phone D:
Have you tried a hard reset? (Hold both volume buttons while booting)
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
yeah... i tried everything :[
hi,
don't worry, your problem is resolvable. (as long as you see something on screen, you are lucky.)
1) When the stick together screen comes, do you see any numbers on left bottom after waiting for some time say 1 min.
if yes, then your problem is missing OS image only.
in this case, take out the battery. after that, keep volume down pressed all the time and insert battery again. press power button, if mobile does not start immediately. please keep volume down button pressed till the time tricolor screen does not come on. after that connect cable to computer and update normally.
2) If you don't see any number, it may mean multiple things, which all are resolvable. (most likely bootloader stuck in another mode.)
in any case, try steps in given in 1 and report back. before reporting back please install mtty on your computer as it is needed to send commands to mobile to get out of this mode.

Possibly a radio problem. Boot pressing volume down button to get into bootloader and flash a radio WITHOUT .51. in its name....

thanks, already did... and it works.. )))
hey i have that same problem now can you help me get a radio so i can download it or can even help me through the steps to get back my phone to normal plzzz.? thank you
Any new user most definitely has a lot of questions...
Here is a thread you should carefully check - it explains some basic stuff, and it offers links to many other specific threads, incl. Radio ROM.
To return to "normal" ROM, please just check the standard flashing process. You can flash via USB or SD card, whatever ROM you like, stock or custom.
Hey man thanks for all that but i really don't want just any rom, i wanna know if anyone can get me the rom that comes with the phone for windows mobile 6.5, you know with the orange load screen etc, i really dummy in this thing and i should not of even played fast to go try flashing my HTC HD2 with a MAGDLR111.
so i've tried various roms and everyone of them was going great unitl step 2 in the upgrade process, it kept saying error filr open, check update rom utility. where do i go from here?
It is quite difficult to help if there is so little basic information available.
The error you mention can have a simple reason. Usually, the ROM image file name is simply not correct.
To flash via USB:
There are 2 options:
First, you can take an original RUU of your network operator (in case you have a branded phone) or HTC, put the phone into boot loader mode (see below), start the RUU.exe on your PC.
Second, you can extract the original RUU.exe with WinRar or a similar program, take the .nbh file and rename it to leoimg.nbh.
Once you take an image of the ROM, you have to put it into the very same folder where your ROM update software is (LeoCustomRUU, SSPL, whatever). One more time, please check the suffix, it should be .nbh, as in "leoimg.nbh".
Keep in mind: Do start the RUU software as "Admin" - whichever you choose.
Instead of the original ROM, you can flash custom ROMs, too - since your device must have HSPL installed when you used WP7 or Android before.
If you´ve got issues (because of Win 7 on your PC or such), please try to put your device into bootloader mode before connectint it to the PC (turn off the device, push vol. down and power at the same time, the multi color bootscreen should appear, only now connect it to the PC).
To flash via SD card:
Re-format your SD card FAT32. Don´t put anything else on it. Copy the ROM image file with the exact naming as above on the SD card.
To start the flash process, do the same as above, go into bootloader mode, the flash process will start - just follow the on-screen instructions.
i have this same problem only it happened without me flashing anything or something like that. i dont have custom rom or hspl. everything is stock. what should i do?
bump ^^
The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 10 characters.
I have an HTC Surround that I cant get to boot past htc logo and if i try to hard rest it goes to spl screen. Where can i get the software to reflash it. I also have another microsd that i can change out if that is bad
still working on
So I replaced the mirco sd and tried to do the restore using the power and volume buttons and still would not get it to try and boot more then a few secs and stop at the htc screen. I also flashed the stock att rom that I got off xda but still no luck. My last chance is trying a new battery today are there any more suggestions
My surround did the same thing recently. It's a problem surrounds have. Unfortunately you have tried the 3 most common solutions.
1: reflash with stock rom
2: Change out sd card
3: hard reset
The only way I know of to get a working one after you have tried those 3 things is hope it's under warranty. :-/

Where did you get that stock at&t rom? I've been all through the developer section and all I see are telus and cingular roms. I've got a phone from the shop that's stuck on the htc logo and replacing the sd card hasn't fixed it. I tried to flash a telus rom because hey what the hell do I have to lose but RUU wasn't able to establish an ActiveSync connection on the htc logo screen looping repeatedly. Is there a way to force it into a sort of download mode from the htc logo to do the flashing from?

i'm guessing this should work:
C. Windows Phone 7 ROM Flashing Instructions
1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder
2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone
3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode
4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button
5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable
6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop
7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen
8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above
9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen
Do You still need help about this?
Basically you need to download DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH from this forum, this will allow you to flash a custom rom. The ROM installed at the phone must be a NODO one because mango roms updates the loader and are not compatible.
For apply it you must put the phone on loader. Connect the phone to the usb, turn it off, turn it on but holding volume down key.
Once there you will see the 3 color screen and will say USB run the DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH and follow the steps.
The phone will restart and showing again the 3 color screen but with HSPL now you can install DFT ROM. DFT ROM is basically a custom Windows Phone with the option to sideload apps you just run ROMUpdateUtility.exe from the DFT ROM downloaded and it will upgrade your OS to DFT Version.
Now what? SPL too high!
My brothers HTC surround has crashed, and fails to load the OS. i can get to the bootloader, but it's
spl-4.2.2250.1 (129185) MNG
i've got HSPL and RSPL, but they say DON'T TRY IF NOT 1.X SPL OR IF IT SAYS MNG. his says both. he was running mango, and i'm just trying to reinstall a stock rom. I'm wondering what advice any of you might have. I've reinstalled roms on Samsung devices, but not on an HTC, so i'm not sure what all this is about, or what the consequences are of proceeding. any help would be great.
Thanks dudes.
bump?
please?
Is it 1/2 bricked?
If you connect the device to a PC does it go to USB mode? At teh red blue green screen does it say USB at the bottom?
USB
It does display USB. If i leave it on for like an hour, eventually, i just discovered, windows DOES load, and it says "your memory is corrupt" it does connect to the computer, and it is detected by my pc, and it does display USB. I'm going to try to put in a new SD card, but i'm wondering once i do that, will i be able to flash the retail rom to it, with that spl.
thanks!
Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837.I believe you will have to downgrade your bootloader. I haven't tried this yet myself, I hope it helps you out.
