Hi
i have G4 wizard 2.16 IPL/SPL and i updated it by IPL_SPL_3.08 update Rom utility. I flashed fine after that i turned it off using power button. my Bad !!!
after that i never start.. no more power i tried to connect to charger and usb connection but LCD still showing no sign. i checked my wizard battery to one of my friend Wizard and its working fine..
so confused dont know what actually happened to it.... please help
You update your IPL/SPL, THAT is what the problem is. You cant update a G4's IPL/SPL to anything other then HardSPL, OR with an official carrier ROM and expect it too work. I may be wrong, but it sounds like your phones bootloader is now bad, and we currently have no way of fixing this....sorry!

Are you sure its G4 ? coz G4 doesn't have IPL/SPL 2.16.It must be 2.16.0001.
Well,if its 2.16.0001 then its a G4 and flashing G3 IPL/SPL 3.08 will certainly Brick it.But if it has IPL/SPL 2.16 only,then its a G3 and there are chances to recover it back.
The only way to fix a G4 in the condition you're describing is to go and flash the Memory chip directly inside the device like they do on the assembly line. This just isn't possible from the standard miniUSB port, as you've overwritten the bootloader, which contains the instructions which move the data from the USB serial buffer onto the flash chip.
As you probably don't have the technology, software, or know-how to correctly identify the memory chip inside your Wizard, rig up a cable, and download the correct binary data, I'd recommend one of two options:
1) The safer option: admit your mistake and try to send the device back to your 'OEM'- whoever branded your Wizard. They should have the technology to repair it- but don't expect it to come cheap.
2) The cheaper option: Find a cheap Wizard with a broken LCD and either transfer your LCD to the new wizard (probably easier), or transfer the motherboard from the new Wizard to your bricked on.
And next time, read through the guides posted here before attempting any flashing operation- they cover the basics, and will prevent you from putting your device into this state again.

Well, i did exactly the same- i had a 2.16 and 2.16oip, which i flashed to a 3.08, after which it booted ok, showing a 3.08 and a 2.16oip. On the next re-start everything went dead, no power up. So do you have any hope for me (G3)?
Thanks
If your device is truly a G3, just flashing to IPL/SPL 3.08 shouldn't cause any problems whatsoever.
When you say no power up, what symptoms are you experiencing? Does the device charge? Can it turn on to the tri-color bootloader screen? The more specific you are, the more we can help you.

I cannot get any display at all. I tried the power button several times, (i don't want to ruin the power button too!) as that is pretty flimsy on this device. On charging- i do not see any charging light either, but i do have a fully charged battery (so its not a case of the battery having no charge charge that the charging circuit would not work)
Appreciate your help.
Have you read at all....
Wait wait wait...
Ill expend all my icons in mad.
The man dont knows what about his device is... you cant!!!!!! you cant!!!!! upgrade that way!!!!! only Stock roms for G4!!!!!
So... I Dont have a G4 and i never had one or wish it... so... I never see a IPL SPL G4 with aku3!!! I saw only... IPL 2.16.0001 and SPL2.16.Olip or something made by hardSPL tool.

I don't know what you mean by the latter, but your problem sounds more like a hardware problem than a software.
Can you confirm that your battery is fully charged with a voltmeter? (It should be slightly above its rated voltage.) Were you trying to charge with the wall charger or the USB cable?
You dont be advised!!!?
Your wizard is......
BRICKED!!!!

You may be right, it looks more like a hardware issue. Tried both the wall charger and the USB onthe phone to check the LED light. The battery, however is fully charged- have a couple of them and an external battery charger. Thanks for your thots, unlike a few who go ranting about dumbness.

Its not a hardware problem and if you think what all say here is all ranting about dumbness,then just let me remind you,it was your own dumbness & fault,that you got your device 'BRICKED'.
A Bricked device,doesn't charge,nor gets into Bootloaders and neither Power up.
Now,how it got bricked,let me tell you straight,it was a G4 device and HardSPL was applied and flashed with patched IPL/SPL.You flashed a G3 Bootloaders (IPL/SPL 3.08) to a HardSPL patched IPL/SPL (2.16 and 2.16oip),what were you expecting cud have happened,its known and warned many times to read and follow the instructions carefully,you didn't pay any attention or mis understood all,now its bricked.
This is exactly what all the above members have been telling you,now if you take that as 'dumbness',well I'm astonished.
ktemkin
Perhaps,you didn't read the post carefully or have no idea about what he did or what has happened.Even you have a fully charged battery,still it cannot Boot up a Bricked phone. The DOC CHIP Flash Memory is corrupted due to wrong IPL/SPL flash.either the DOC Chip Flash Memory is to be replaced or the whole Motherboard.That means buying a new device,lol.
It was due to ignorance and wrong Software fault.
Leave it....
dont make sense about it man!
Till we have members without his info correctly we cant do nothing... just try to advise them or tell what was the prob or try to help... misunderstand is a non handle thing we cant avoid....
Already posted to adms and Mods to make, in register info the first time, this kind of info... but it seems that our devices WIZARDS are the most bricked because this IPL and SPL diferences in DOC CHIP version...
Maybe is info that not everybody got and not to be forced to answer anyways... could help. see REQUESTS to Mods and admins in about XDA-developers forum.
thanks.
Thanks for setting me straight. If you can indulge my ignorance one more time, would flashing a 3.08 brick the device immediately? or would it brick it on the first boot after a flash? I ask because i did see it boot with a 3.08, work for a while and then fail on a reboot (which i started manually).
Thanks

The first problem here is the mixed g3 and g4 ROMS 3.08 is g3.
It dont has issues about that cause is a stock rom i have it and no issues about that... its highly recomended to upgrade just to 2.xx original stock not 3.xx because the aku version ok?
so im apologize for all I said Men... but the experince is the best thing you can get. i have 3.08 just a few months but i did not do the upgrade with this... even tough i ask a lot about upgrade my ipl spl to zabardast and he told me Stupid newbie too but now i know more thing, and yes! I stiil am an stupid but a little less than since he answer all my question... if you dont believe me read all the forum about upgrade jeje

can anyone throw light on whats the real thing ?

take out the battery for hours then re-install it. try to boot in bootloader mode first(3 colors). If it work, it's the time to re-flash the right rom now!

Nobody here is providing any details so everything is going to be just a guess. If either of these phones were a G4 and you flashed a rom that tried to update the IPL/SPL then its very likely you have bricked your device. But again, with no information about what rom you were trying to flash, what your IPL/SPL were beforehand, or details about what it means that it won't turn on, everything is just a guess...
Bricked Kjam
its comletely dead.....i had disconnected the battery for a couple of days then connected it but it wont start....i checked the battery using multimeter it is fully charged....neither does it power ON when connected to mains...It doesnt get detected when connected to the USB port..thats obvious since it is not powering up...so cant flash it again.. now m in a fix as to whether to spend another fortune after this sweetheart or keep it in a showcase ....

If nothing lights up that looks pretty terminal. :-(
Maybe you could buy a broken Wizard with a working motherboard? Alternatively maybe sell off your mostly working Wizard on this forum to raise money to buy a new device?
Sorry if you can't get it going. :-(

if you have uspl installed before you ran upgrade, than you should be able to recover. according to your spl version, you did.
to get to bootloader:

you get rgb screen in bootloader.
-obtain original rom for your device;
-connect device with usb to pc;
-make sure the battery is charged enough to perform upgrade;
-run standard upgrade utility;
this will return your device to original rom. to do further upgrades, you will need to install uspl again, because it will be overwritten during original rom installation.

why do you need to press the green button? you're already in bootloader mode.
the thing to do is, you must have the original rom of your device. if you do, then you can flash it to your phone through the bootloader mode.
try to get your phone again in the bootloader mode (the red/green/blue screen). once you're there, connect your phone to your pc via cable. you'll see in the lower-left corner of your screen "USB". then you may flash your rom from there.

Don't give up so soon.
I had the same problem as you describe and it was working fine now.
Hold the left button above the volume control on the left side of your phone.
Now press reset button with stylus and release.
Don't release the left button yet until u see the bootloader screen.
Once u are in the bootloader u need to plug the USB connection to PC for ROM upgrade.
U need original ROM. If bought from UK -UK ROM, if bought from German - Gernam ROM, etc...
Please let me know if you have any difficulty to obtain the Original ROM.
Once you updated original ROM u can run active syn and run USPL utility to unlock and upgrade to any ROM you prefer.
Woot thax alot m8 I really should get my phone back and give it a try .
Hi at all.
I'm a member from Germany so please excuse my bad english.
I think ,y device is bricked. Installed Android on my NAND since it was out (I think it was Feb. 1st) but now nothing works anymore. The device hung up several times since monday, so i decided to update the rom (Typhoon Cyanogenmod 7). After the update it was the same experience: the device hung up every boot at the lockscreen of android. I tried to flash clk again, flashed MAGLDR, i also flashed a WinMo 6.5 Rom but nothing works. The device gets stuck at the first boot screen.
I dont know what to do now. I love my HD2 so i pray to the lord, someone got the conclusion to my problem.

I would start from scratch.
1) Flash task29
2) Flash MAGLDR 1.13
3) Flash Android again
it should be fine.
It also sounds like your HD2 may have a hardware issue, maybe cpu overheating.
If you still get this flash stock from SD (go to HTC and find your stock ROM), if it STILL does it send it in for warranty.

that means you need to flash official stock for your area, get it from your IMEI number on the HTC site.
Also, HTC does warranties by IMEI and when the device was originally purchased, so even though you bought it from ebay they will probably still cover it.

The phone reboots and...*tada* stuck at first boot screen
Huh, you're having the exact same problem as my brother-in-law. He bought a cheap HD2 phone hoping I could fix it for him, but the same problem occurred. I tried my best on the damn thing for nearly 12 hours, but it was all for naught -- the closest I could get to installing a ROM on it was 99% before it freezes.
I haven't tried MAGLDR yet, but flashing a radio had the same problem.
As a last resort, I was going to try the technique mentioned in this topic (perhaps you can try it too): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=668347&highlight=Bricked
P.S. Don't worry about your English. Your English is still better than my German.

It sounds to me you may have internal hardware failure. I know it sounds crazy but some members with your exact problem havechad success with this method. Put you HD2 into a plastic sealable bag and place it in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes then immediately flash the ROM from SD card when you take out. If it works I will tell you my thoery on why it works.
Cant flash from SD card, the bootloader doesnt show any flash-options when i boot into hspl

Well either you don't have the LEOIMG.nbh file on the root of your SD card or you need to reformat your SD card using Fat 32, make sure to malefactors back up copycof you SD card on your computer before you reformat it though. Also if the HD2 still has a ROM on it it might just boot up aftercgivimg it a good cool down in the freezer. The reason I say this is because sometimes if the processor has become somewhat disconnected from the main board form overheating or other reasons. The cold makes the internal parts contract just enough to get it to bootip all the way. Now after of warms back up it may shut itself off and reboot back to the same screen it is stuck at now. Which in this case you will need to get te main board replaced to permanently fix the phone.
reformatted the sdcard from fat32 to fat32: doesnt work
ok, i tried the hint with the 15mins-freeze and it works!
i flashed clk, android and after 10-15mins, it back to start: the device hangs andgets stuck at the bootloader...
Try magldr... To rule out software related issues

Well I am glad to hear the freezer trick worked but sad to hear your problem sbowed back jp again. Like I said in my last post if it come back that means for sure you have a hardware issue. probably need another main board.
Sorry man.
So you are able to flash but it always returns to the SPL? I've seen this twice now and it was physical NAND failure in both cases.
i am able to flash but the hd2 freezes after a while and at the reboot it gets stuck at the bootloader (android logo)...with the freezer trick again, the phone boots normally (no need to reflash) but the device freezes everytime after 15-20 mins

You have either a thermal breakdown of fhe processores connection or bad physical space in the NAND chip.
I wasn't sure where to PST this but I got an HD2 from a friend that had clockwork recovery and a miui Rom already installed. I resoldered the charge port and it worked fine. But I ripped the volume buttons off the the flex ribbon cable. I replaced it with a new one and now the phone will not boot int a ROM. I can get into the recovery manager and the other menus and even flash a ROM but it al not boot.
I downloaded the latest miui ROM .1.10.21, 2.3 and it gets about 4/5 of the way through the flash and then ends abruptly and says installation complete. when its flashing, I see the radio zip 2.15.50.14 and the ROM. The radio is 1st and it appears to flash but it seems not to complAfter ete during the ROM flash.
After the reboot it takes a while to boot and I eventually get a lock screen in Chinese, but the screen is unresponsive. It shows some moving graphics but unresponsive when touching. I left it alone for about an hour and still nothing - screen on but black and it will occasionally cosecha true boot screen again.
So do you all think its the flex cable? It worked fine (even with the broken one) before replacing it. Please excuse me if this should have gone in a different forum.

Try a different rom first, it could be that you are working with a corrupt file.

I just tried to download the ROM again from here:
miuiandroid.com/roms/miui-development-roms/
Still abruptly ends with progress bar at 4/5 of the way through. I'll search for a diff ROM but I really wanted this one.

You are missing the point, the idea of trying another rom is to see if your issue might be hardware related.

Somehow i knew you would be the first to point out this thread is not posted in the right forum
As for shawndh
1) IF you can boot any rom with your previous flex cable then IT is the new flex cable problem
2) IF you have brought the wrong flex cable depending on your HD2 type, then it might be the flex cable. (HD2 has two variants. EU and T-Mobile) I hope you brought the correct cable.
3) ELSE your mainboard has somehow damaged on suddenly short-circuiting through the NEW flex cable.
Sorry, no offence!

Ignore the above: mentioned flexcable for both variants is identical!
Cheers!

Thanx for clarifying that about the flex cables. Well, I found out I have a new issue. It seems the 2nd MIUI ROM I flashed did actually work. The issue is that the touch screen has now become unresponsive. I have no idea what made it stop working though. The digitizer and LCD have never been separated and the connection to the motherboard is good - no damage to the flex cables either.
I noticed it when i flashed the stock t-mobile WinMob ROM on the phone. The phone flashed fine and booted up. But I could not unlock the lock screen. This phone is a real PAI! So I'm going to start another thread about that. Thanx.
push end button hardly to fix this issue temprorary, most probably your end button is rying to kill your digitizer :S
Hi, to everyone! Please, forgive for my bad English (I'm Russian)
So, I have an HTC HD2. There are Windows Mobile 6.5.3 Professional RUS. One day, I needed an MS Console for little network tweaking. All tweaks works fine. Than send my device to the Soft Reset (via shortcut by SPB Pocket Plus. I used this shortcut thousand times) And my device freeze at the first boot screen (with sign "Stick Together", and versions of radio, os, etc) I understand, that this "console" killed my os. So I decided to flash my HD2 with new WM 6.5 ROM. Boot my device to the Service Mode (HSPL), And start to flashing process. Everything works perfect, but afterwards my device show message that this rom is not suitable for my device.... Rom was from US HTC HD2. I started doubt about origin of my device, and looked under th battery: It's Chinese! This was too much...
Ok, it's bad, but not "the end of the World". I desided to download and install this ROM: RUU_Leo_HTC_RUS_1.48.411.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship. It's installed ok, without any problems, but after restart, device simply DO NOT TURN ON! It's shakes about 0.1sec, and that's all.... :crying:
As I read at at some forums, it means, that I destroyed IPL - initial loader, which loads SPL or HSPL.
So, is there ANY WAY to recover IPL or whatever it can be, without "programmer unit JTAG"??
P.S. Device are visible in "Device Manager" on my PC via USB as "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM", with these Device IDs:
USB\VID_05C6&PID_9002&REV_0000
USB\VID_05C6&PID_9002
Which definitely not in Windows Mobile Device Center driver pack.
Also, "driveridentifier.com" says, that this is "Qualcomm Diagnostics Interface 3197".
I'm Running Windows 7 Ultimate x64
Well, the 'stick together' screen is from a tmous rom, (t mobile US), and if it IS a tmous phone, then the radio RUU_Leo_HTC_RUS_1.48.411.1_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.0 7U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
has just killed it.
Any non tmous rom will destroy a tmous phone. Only JTAG will rescue it.
BUT
you say it is a chinese copy? How sure are you? They normally say 'made in taiwan' under the battery.
First, thanks for answer!
The first Rom, which I flushed, was with "TMOUS" postfix.
An after it successfully installs, my device says me that this rom not compatible.
But, the HSPL was alive...

Also, as I understand, original US devices should have an SPL loader, but I already has an Cotulla HSPL 2.08:
And what's wrong with my last Rom? It has IPL inside? or SPL?
All stock roms contain an spl (notsure what an ipl is,alwaysalways assumed it was another word for spl.
Notsure what to suggest next,sorry.
As I understand there are 3 steps in HD2 Boot sequence:
1) IPL - invisble 'app', wich searches for SPL
2) SPL (HSPL) itself, which in normal mode loads OS and Radio drivers, in service mode searches for ROM's NBH files inside SD card and listens USB for similar data.
3) Loading OS's files.
As read at some forum, IPL - is a part of SPL. It doing only one thing: Initializing internal 'flash' memory, and gives control to SPL itself.
I have 4 TMOUS HD2s that have made in China on the build label
*Same as your images exept no big "Made In China" sticker, just the smaller print & just smaller print on battery but expect changes pending on manufacture batch.
& this is nothing to worry about as HTC has an assembly plant in China. Also have an HTC Desire that was made in China too
So, this means, that I have an US HTC HD2 Leo TMOUS, assembled in China?

Yes, I have not seen one that has not been ...
assume this has the green answer & red end key colour to help identify it as a TMOUS.
Would assume as mentioned above that the .51 radio has killed it good & jtagging maybe only fix if it didn't have any other hardware fault causing original issue.
Mister B what you can say about recovery of my device? Do you also suggest to search for someone, who know, how to work with JTAG?
Also, dear specialists, what can you say about true US Smartphone Audiovox XV6600?.
It serves me for about 7 years without any problems!

No, the original issue was because I installed strange app... It hasn't direct access to drivers. I think it just broke my Windows Mobile registry...
Or you think other TMOUS ROMs (which didn't start), could make another issues? But before the last ROM (it full name I wrote in first topic), device perfectly loads into HSPL!
Dear specialist, if I'll find someone, who can recover my SPL, Can I install any of Android NAND ROMs from this section, or there are also limitations, which breaking could lead to the similar device death?
Mister B, the look of my device in the attachments. What can you say about origin and quality of it?
If you can find someone at sensible cost to jtag it maybe worth effort repairing. You need get idea on cost then make decision on price, ease of repair (local, shipping abroad etc) & how keen you are to get it working again.
From Photos it look 100% original HD2 to my eyes via internet viewing.
Expect a couple other members can give you details & maybe a link to people who can jtag.
If thinking of Android it maybe a good time to move on, personally I think the custom WM6.5 roms such as from NRG are far better serious smartphone power & customization than Android at many levels.
Ahhh I didnt know about the china link to tmouses, , i've seen four euro hd2's and they are all made in taiwan.

Why the tmous rom didn't work is odd but not at all unknown, just an unlucky bad flash, whatever, it happens, but that isn't what killed it, it was probably recoverable at that point, (unless it was an hardware fault of course). Its the last rom, the non tmous one, almost certainly.
When you flashed the non tmous rom, two or three things happened,
1 - if its an sd card flash, the spl(or hspl, whatever) is replaced by the one in teh rom, , if its usb flash, this doesn't happen if hspl is there.
2 - the radio gets flashed. This happens in both sd and usb flashes. From this point onwards, the phone was doomed. It still continued the flash right to the end, but as soon as it reboots, the new radio takes effect, and kills it.
3 - the rom itself gets flashed.

I used USB flashing process.
It's seemed, I have the second case...
You think even jtagging can't recover device with wrong radio flashed?:crying:
[27.01.2013]
I gave my beloved HD2 to Service Center for JTagging. Tech Specialist says, that it cost me approximately $50.
[30.01.2013]
Thanks all, for help! Service Center JTagged my HD2 Radio, and my device finally ALIVE.
I already flashed Paranoid Android 2+, and very glad, because from NAND ROM Android 4.1 works with lightning speed...
