and i'm stuck at the splash screen and nothing to do
please help me.. tell me what can i do

Ouch.
Sounds like the built-in flash memory is bad. I'm not sure what you can do about that, short of replacing it.

No offense Reverend, but where did you hear that? Its just bad flash man! Simply enter the bootloader mode, and re-flash a new rom to your device. What program where you trying to install?

something from a pocket freeware site.. "XDA-Team_Manilla2D.CAB"
it's a touchflo 2d app for today screen.. after installing it, the sistem wouldn't boot up anymore. so i tried to format, soft reset, to restore the system..
the formatting started and then gave an error and shut down immediately. i didn't even catch a glimps of that error 'cause it restarted.. and then the problem. it won't go past the operator splash screen
tried to reformat.. would't start.. format failure
..simply wow.. don't get me wrong , but i didn't knew there was a bootloader screen until this happened.. i dug up about this problem on the forum, but i can't solve it.. i don't know that much about flashing.. isn't the wizard supposed to be cid-unlocked to be able to flash it with a new rom?
or there's a rom that doesn't require the pda to be unlocked?.. cause' i think mine isn't. and, since i can't get it to boot up the os, i can't cid-unlock it after the tutorials i've found here..
and i don't want to bury it, yet

Oh you poor sole...that program that you tried to flash is notorious...I did the very same thing to mine just the other day. It doesnt work with the Wizard yet for some reason.
Now, onto your problem, yes-I think that your Wizard IS INDEED CID locked, and if that is the case, search for the Wizard LOVE ROM and flash it. It can be flashed with a CID unlocked device. Head into your bootloader mode, then start up the RUU flashing program on your PC that is included with the ROM. After it flashes, you can use the Wizard Service Tool, which is also availible via searching to CID and SIM unlock your device, and then you can put any ROM that you like onto it. I hope that helps somewhat!

If you can get it into bootloader mode, you can recover. If the phone is not unlocked, you will have to load the original service ROM for that phone.
You MIGHT get lucky by just flashing the IPL/SPL back though, now that I think about it...look at the "How to Remove HardSPL" thread for the most popular IPL/SPL sets. If this works, you won't have to put all of your custom settings and programs back on.

Myrddin Wyllt
Plz note all the IP/SPL posted in the thread 'How To Remove HardSPL' are for G4 devices and they are not meant to be flashed to a G3 device,if flashed will certainly 'Brick' the G3 device.
Whereas,here ,he has a G3 device with IPL/SPL 2.27,flashing those IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) means instant death of the phone.
koolariz
Simply,download the official stock rom of the carrier and flash it in Bootloader mode to recover back to its default status,than downgrade to IPL/SPL 1.xx to CID unlock the phone,how to CID unlock the phone, read and follow this guide carefully :-

If you have said the truth... you've got a G3 device cause your ipl spl are 2.27.
So try to install this original ROM... is for Tmobile WWE so try it.... http://rapidshare.com/files/38880130/ruu_prodigy_226102_22610105_022511_tmous_wwe_ship.exe.html
Or search on tutorials tu unlock and upgrade the wizard Love ok?
Good luck men...
And please please please read and ask before do anything, BTW now the only you can do is to runn this ROMs cause you cant get your original carriers ROM.
If this dont works... please read the thread from upgrading forum in this wizard subforum that said something like Stuck on splash screen solution DYI or something the tuttorial DEV is called Drug_store.

i tried the O2 rom [12.18.3.103] u gave me. it doesn't start flashing.. 0% and then
quoting:ERROR "This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer NBF file."
ps: The orange one on the xda ftp server doesn't work .. it's archived and parts are missing..

Hmmm,ok,lets try this out,download 'Button's Rom 1.05' from the link posted below and check if this works out.
Otherwise,you'll have to look for official Stock Rom (Romanian),which was running on the phone before.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...0for newbies

i'll try this one.. for now.. ps:your link is broken?
i just have another question.. i have a friend with the same wizard as mine, i mean in the same carrier.. is it possible cu get his rom? to dump it on SD card.. or something?
so that i may flash that rom?
LE:
i found another thing on a DIY
If you got IPL/SPL 1.xx go to G3.3. If you got 2.xx go to G3.4
G3.3 Download button rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.
G3.4 Download wizard_love rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.

should i try the wizard_love rom?

ok,download Button's Rom 1.05 from here:-
http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.html
also try this one :-
xda_miniS_LaunchRom
http://rapidshare.com/files/43423464/Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102.exe
and yes! you can also try Wizard_Love _Rom.
Now,its possible to back up the rom from your friend's phone,but it also have to be CID unlocked first and your device shud also be CID unlocked to flash it from the sdcard (MTTY) method.

pfff (
i've updated the rom with the Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2 and now i have a blue sci-fi splash screen with "AKU 2.3" in the top-right corner..
IPL 2.27
SPL 2.27
GSM 02.25.11
OS 2.26.10.2
same ****
won't boot up
and if i try to format, same error.. Format Failed.. so here i am again

hmmmm,try a Hard Reset,hope it works or try other roms I have posted above.
Do you have any sdcard inserted in the phone right now,take it out before flashing any rom.

dude.. that's what i've been trying hard reseting it.. and i get the same error each time i try it "Format Failed"
no sd inserted.. i took it out a while ago.. cause i read on the forum to flash without it.
i begining to get desperate over here
i'll try other roms..
what else can i do than hope this works

Also take out if any sdcard or mini sd is inserted in the phone before flashing,it also causes this Format Failed problem.

What steps have you taken, and where are you stuck at now? Can you bring it into bootloader mode? What IPL/SPL? You said its G3, is it CID unlocked?
So far i have flashed it with the original Tmobile rom and some others through the bootloader mode, but even after it says flash completed I still get stuck on the splash screen, my ip/spl are both 2.26, and it is CID locked, and at the time i dont had a mini sd card to perform an sd rom upgrade, god i wish i just stuck with my original rom, please help!

So you've flashed back the oroginal tmobile rom, is that also 2.26? I presume you are using the standard update util for the flash and it says completed? I've seen the update util do that (say 100% complete but not actually update anything) .. this behaviour is documented somewhere in this forum (took me about 8 flashes and a lot of confusion and frustration before I found the forum threads!) this only happened on a CID locked phone flashing a custom rom.. i don't think that happens with original vendor roms..
Can't say I have had the same problem. From looking at the forum, most people who get stuck like this can flash the wizard love rom and get back on. For me, I have mostly been able to get back to the original rom when needed, except when I bricked my G4 phone (before G3/G4 was well understood)...
Yes sir that is also a 2.26 and yes im using the standerd methodhat is this wiazrd love rom your talking about though? Maybe i should flash it to that instead of the original tmobile rom?
p.s if this only happens on cid locked phones, is there anyway to unlock my cid while in bootloader mode?

Like I said I had not used it myself, but there are many references to it in the forums.
When you say you are stuck, does it load the Windows splash screen or does it get stuck on the IPL/SPL screen?
It gets stuck on the IPL/SPL screen

No you can't CID unlock in bootloader mode.. there are a number of threads on how to CID unlock...

Only that by all accounts, you should be able to get a working phone again if you can get into bootloader mode.. unless you have hardware issues. The other item that may be of problem is the extended rom which can get corrupted.

HELP NEEDED Please - 8525 brick!

hello, i have read and read all the wiki's, but ive not been able to fix my phone.
i use a cingular 8525 (herm100) phone, and cannot install any rom on the phone. I have two versions of the At&t ROM with radio's and tried them both, but they all stop at 11-12 %.
i have tried usind the sd-card method, and it does not pass the "GSM - " portion.
i guess the radio is not working or is corrupt or something..
my phone is now in bootloader and just says
HERM100
IPL-1.04
HERM100
SPL-2.03
please any help will be appreciated. thank you!!!!
wow.. can anyone even say "sorry"
geez.. 35 views, and not even one reply, or consolation message, or anything??
I would update your copy of Windows Mobile Device Center first (especially if you're using Vista). Flash SPL and the radio, then flash any rom to see what happens. I mean really at this point, it's already a brick... try some crazy stuff, you can't hurt it anymore than it already is. I did the same thing to mine a couple of months ago, and after trying these things, I got it working again without a problem.
update to hard spl ver.7.
try to flash
a). stock rom (sometimes this works)
b). radio only rom.

Just to make sure I understand, the unlocker you linked is to SIM and CID unlock, correct ?? And then on top of that - you should update to HardSpl also ??
I have an 8525 on its way that I will be looking to upgrade - just want to make sure I am understanding correctly.

sorry for the late reply
i have been dealing with this for 3 days and finally managed to run official AT&T rom for 4 days wout hard reset.
there is a method dumping an official himalaya rom to hermes. az pof explained in one of his posts all commands except radio commands are different in himalaya so it is safe to use dumping method.
it basically deletes everything in radio rom so you can install official rom.
PS: at first install official rom stucked %12 i said damn but in second try %15 third try success
i am at work now i dont have the link of method but try googling or searching my posts (not too much )
i hope it solves your problem
bartan
thanks guys, i've tried some things
i have tried using Hard SPL v.7 it does not work.
i have tried using official cingular roms too. stops at 11% no success.
i have tried upgraing radio only, stops a 0% and restarts the device.
i have also used mtty, with some text inputs, no success
i have even tried selling the brick on e-bay .... as you can guess no success.!
bill_in_mtl, sorry bout lateness of my reply ( net problems), yes you do unlock sim and cid. Sim unlock means you can use ANY simcard from any carrier and Cid unlock means you can flash ANY hermes rom (both official or cooked). It needs to be unlocked first as the spl is downgraded to 1.40 (I think) and you should REALLY be running with 2.10 olipro (hard SPL ver 7). I wouldnt bother upgrading to Hard SPL ver 9 a this is essentially only ver 7 with some neat features for developers but it does throw up an error message when you finish flashing a rom(no problems t just feels like it).
Hard SPL WON'T stop you from bricking your phone BUT it will make it easier to recover.
roomtek*8525, sorry to hear that but have you tried flashing with a cooked rom? This unfortunately wont fix the phone part but you will have a working PDA...If you've tried MTTY with info 8 and task 2a commands then thats the best to hope for, Sorry bout that..

Bricked Cruise? Need Help.

Okay, so I'm an idiot. I'm completely lost now. Here's the basic facts:
Hard-SPL install was unsuccessful, but I didn't notice. So I'm still with original SPL.
I started upgrading the ROM with original SPL, which of course crashes at 3 percent.
Now I can't get back into WM. It's stuck at the 'smart mobility screen'.
So the problem is: it won't let me install any ROMs because original SPL is still on there. I can't change to hard-SPL anymore either. The ROM that's on the machine doesn't seem to work anymore. When I try to install an original ROM it says I can't use this utility. I think I need to download an official ROM + installer, but I can't find any from HTC.
Alright, so skip all the noob and idiot comments please, I already know. But where do I go from here?
Please help!

Okay, so I did the hard reset as described here. No luck.
So I went back to the bootloader screen (original SPL) and tried the original rom and installer from the download link. Again, no luck. It says "Error [294] Invalid Vender ID. This utility cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please check your update utility." The phone was unlocked when I bought it, it's HTC branded. Is there another installer out there?
I've also tried loading several roms by putting them on SD, renamed as POLAIMG.nbh. (including the orginal rom, extracted from the downloaded installer). For the original Rom, it will say 'loading...', then 'checking...' and then it will tell me: "00028002 - not allow". Then it goes back to the three colour spl screen.
There's also a link here on the forum which I'm not sure is good advice.

Hi
Ths info I posted relates to the Kaiser (kaiser [nearly] equals Polaris in terms of hardware) and the MTTY is from the ELF forum.
"set 16 0" to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
"task 8" to get your device formatted
I suggest the set 16 0 and a reset to see if that helps, I do advocate you searching for these commands and checking they are applicable.
The info was from this KAISER thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2103884

Thanks for your advice guys.
I tried the "set 16 0" command + reset. Still same situation.
Any other tips anyone?

It is probably bricked then.
So what's my next move...trash it?

I think he wrote already that he tried to flash some ROMS using SD card... (POLAIMG.NBH). Not sure though if he tried re Hard-SPL'ing using the SD flash method...
So I would suggest to retry the HardSPL using the POLAIMG.NBH method (just as if the HardSPL's .NBH file was a normal ROM) if this hasn't been tried yet...

When I try to hard-spl through the SD-card, it just says "Loading..." and that's where it stays - Even if I leave it till the battery dies. I tried the 2.10 and 1.10 versions on this page.

Hard-SPL through SD
You're right; I did notice that - however
I had to take an nbh from this page. The reason is that the HTC Cruise Hard-SPL program I found on this page won't let me extract the rom.
I need the rom file to put in on SD!
The Hermes one probably wouldn't work anyway though, thats a good point Where to get the Polaris separate rom nbh? I haven't found it on the forums. Maybe I'm going blind...

1. You can not flash hard-spl with microSD method! (hard-spl flash use jumpspl to ignore cid-lock. But with microSD card method you will not use jumpspl, so you can not flash hard-spl! (and to use microSD method you have to have hard-spl on your pda)
2. If you unzip hard-spl on your pc will be an RUU_signed.nbh. This is the rom file, but you can not to flash it with microSD.
3. Your device is bricked, I think. Take it to repair!
after an unsuccessful flash, u shud never try to flash again, high chance of permanently bricking your pda. go contact GSLEON3, he saved my kaiser from bricking when i made the same mistake as u. helpful fellow. make sure u donate lol

Can't flash from SD, ship ROM from BL - err. 240 or 270

Hi,
Artemis (not branded, CID locked), boots only to BootLoader.
Flashing official ROMs (either old or new one) from BL ends at 3% with errors #270 or #244.
Tried flashing _official_ ROMs from mSD card (2GB Sandisk, FAT32 formatted, ARTEIMG.nbh renamed, in root of the card) - "Checking SD contents" and straight to tri-color BL screen.
BL screen shows :
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL1.12.0000
Can connect with mtty, but I don't know what to do with it
Any help/ideas much appreciated, thanks.

hey
maybe the rom you are trying to is not the one for it
try to get one from the the htc site it self
cuz you need to flash the rom with the original carrier and language as i think
and since you can inter to the boot loader maybe you can run the USPL
just an idea

CID unlock first...
Your SPL must be 1.11.0000 for you to flash any ROM you like.

It boots ONLY to BL, doesn't start normally, so I can't USPL/CID unlock it (would need ActiveSync connection for this, unless there's some other method).
That's why I try to load an official, signed rom (from HTC site) - but for some reason Artemis does not like it, neither from card, neither from BL, even though it is the official "unlocked" ROM.
t.
But you said that your Artemis is not official, so that's a problem.
Being a official ROM doesn't mean that you can flash it in all Artemis.
For example, if the language is different, then it can't be flashed either.
By "not branded" I meant it's plain HTC, not Orange, O2 or other operator.
That's the problem - a HTC unit does not accept HTC ROM (but used to, without problems).

Did u find a solution to this? i have the same isue
>Did u find a solution to this? i have the same isue
Nope. Spent several evenings searching for a hint, found nothing.
I hope somebody will find and share a way to unbrick it, but since Artemis is quite an old piece, and the gurus are busy with newer toys, I guess we need plenty of luck
imei-check.co.uk was mentioned few times, that they can provide rebuilt boot-data (?) to be flashed but there're no info about it on their www.
It seems that software version information is broken/lost in the device, so ANY attempt to flash ANY software into it will result in some kind of "wrong version" error.

I dropped the ROM on SD
Try that..and be patient..you should see upload status that way. I waited 30 minutes at the RGB Screen before rebooting. Also..make sure you unlock your phone 1st.
there is hundereds of %2 %3 cut off flashing artemis on earth. No solution even mtty and goldcard.
Worked???
Did it worked anyway? I have same issue..So Im just wondering if I have brick or I have to triyed to fix it
just flash it
i think u just flash it with the original rom.
this for dopod M700 official rom.

what type of artemis do u have?
just go to the official web.
www.htc.com
but u need to insert SN number to download it.
just run the exe file to upgrade.

Help!! Uninstall HARDSPL goes wrong.

Hello!
Like the title says: HARDSPL goes wrong.
I need to uninstall hardspl so i can use my warranty.
I have follow the tutorial in this thread how to uninstall it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
When the flash is compleated and its time for reboot i got this message http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWWpBbQTPb8
If i take out the memorycard and reboot i got this message http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4S-Rcqwlsc
If i try to reflash i getting the same message as the firs plus it says "upgrade ROM code error please try agen"
Can some one please help me out with this?
And yes i have done a hard reset.
And yes i have try to boot via usb to reflash.
If its to any help i used a ROM from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577717 tha one called "LEO2.07"
I think you have to find official ROM which was installed on you HD2 before you changed HARDSPL and installed cooked ROM. You'll find all official ROM's in Leo Official ROMs thread. When you find the right one install it from your SD card. Hope this helps

Like I said. I have used a rom from official rom thread=) I also tryed the rom from htc.com with same resoult.
Can I uninstall a bad flash or something and start from the beginning ? Cuz now im stockt in my situation.
Like I said you have to find the "right" one. It's not just any official ROM. I my case I had to install some really old ROM. Unfortunately I don't know how to find the right one, just use the trial and error method.

Okej! Sorry for missunderstanding. So the only way out is to try everyone ?
I was lucky to get the first released hd2 in my city, so i bett its a old one =)
Does it have to be the same language release to ?
In official ROMs thread is link to Shared folder for shipped Leo ROMs. In there are very well organised ROMs by country and carrier, you should find it quick enough. Just start with 1.43 and 1.48 and only those which matches your country and/or carrier.
or just to HTCs website and get it from there (assuming its not a vendor locked device)

Dont realy know what that its. But I press vol down and start bottom. Then the tri-colored screen shows up "bootloader" for about 1 second. Then i got this screen http://img405.imageshack.us/i/20090607028.jpg/
I have let it load for about 20min, then i gave up.
I'm afraid to say this, but you have SPL 2.07, which means you are on 'official SPL' and can only flash TMOS Official ROM (since the only SPL 2.07 is tied to US ROM)
I think the only way is to use goldcard, to flash your country's official ROM via sdcard (although I'm not sure if that will work, because I read some folks have problem with that)
Its seems i also have a problem flashing a stock rom for warranty reasons.
I did the following steps:
1. Get an official stock rom. (in my case it would me a NLD ROm 1.48)
2. Put it on storage card en change to LEOIMG.nbh
3. Turn of phone, press volume down en power up unntil tri color screen apears.
4. Follow steps on sreen.
But. I dont get step 4. On step it says for 1 sec ''loading''. After that, it goes back to the trii colour HARDSPL screen.
Does anyone know what im doing wrong?
I tried two different SD cards. A 2 gb version and a 4 gb version (both from Scandisk formatted as FAT32)
Is there a way/possible to flash a stock rom using activesync?

People with the same problem in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=630843
In post #64 fards helped XMOO get the device working again, only with SPL 2.07... maybe the rest of the thread provides more info or solutions. I didn't read any further.

No, your warranty is invalid as you're using an SPL/ROM not for your region - hence why you shouldn't flash a ROM from the SD card as this is the issue you have. You're now stuck with a broken HD2 until HSPL can be used on SPL 2.x

Okej. Thats not good Hope some one release a HSPL 2.xx then =) But now i can't even use my phone anymore.
(just to double check)when you boot to bootloader, what does it say next to spl?
if it says spl 2.x then the above posts are correct, and you are stuck with spl2 until hspl2 is released.
You CAN get your phone working again, even with spl 2.
You need a goldcard, and you can then flash the 2.x official rom which will at least get your phone working. Once it is working, you can then flash custom roms using sspl BUT ONLY roms based on the 2.x official rom, and you won't be able to change radios using sspl. The only way you can change your radio is flashing a 2.x official rom with the goldcard.
