how did you hard reset?

hello,
i hold down the power-button and at same time put stylis in reset.

hard reset for both WM5 and WM6 is different from the one you're doing. here's the guide...

good luck!

ok thanks, i have tried this:
i do softreset. whenn the stripes came i push "records and "camera"(media player button because there is no camera)---> nothing happens. it stops with the line R 1.10.00 and the coloured stripes.
i dont knwo what to do.
the bootloader method is running. i hold power and record button while i softreset. but with color screen it wont work.
they is no camera button (it is media-player button) because there is no camera. its an german xda III (blue angel).
the next problem is i dont knwo what os is right now on it. befor flashing it was wm2003 and flashing says it was successfully. i dont know if its wm6 or wm2003!

ok now all is happen...
the xda says nothing. it dont go on, it dont work anymore. no lights when in cradle, nothing.
can i do anything?

1. Take the battery out, wait a moment, put it back, do not turn on. Put in the cradle and try to charge it. Use power connection (from power supply), disconnect USB from the computer for charging. Amber led should turn on.
2. When it will be fully charged (amber LED will turn off) try to turn it on and enter bootloader. Try to downgrade to WM2003. If it works fine, try again to flash WM5 or WM6.
What you did seems to be wrong update (wrong rom, wrong file, not fully flashed). But you still have bootloader, so it should be possbile to flash it. But you need full battery.

it was not unlocked befor i flashed with bootloader-method.
i charged the battery in cradle (withoud the blue-angel). the led first went orange, after a while turned green (fully loaded). put it back in BA an nothing happens. then put BA (with battery) in cradle and the led became red.
no action on devide, no feedback, nothing. it wont turn on but led is still working.!?

ok i get it. in display is the "USB" & "v2.07". now i can flash. but my problem is the phone is not unlocked yet. what file can i flash now??

This message tells you are in bootloader mode. Now you can perform normal flash - I would propose you to use tested&working rom (WM2003?). If this works fine, try again to upgrade to WM5/WM6.
BTW: if you disconnect USB (take out BA from cradle) it should show Serial instead of USB.

ok big tanks to the forum. i finally get it. wm6 german on blue-angel!

Same thing here... but worst..
My 9090 is stuck at bootlader...
When i try to update, (i press the power, record and reset), it says:
SERIAL (or USB)
DOC VERSION IS ERROR!
v2.08
Any idea???

that's normal...
try to flash/update your BA in that screen.

the easy way to go into bootloader mode is to execute a file called Enter Bootloader.exe ..it comes with the rom u download..( well it came with xplodes )
Note:- you have to execute this file directly on your deive not on your desktop PC...and i have only tested this on WM 2003..maybe it will work with wm6 also

IQ700

Need help!
I have been messing with this phone for afew days now can't seem to get it to work. When I power the phone on all I see on the screen is green screen that says "IU BUILD! Test Only" this ws the result of a hard reset. The device is sim unlocked but I don't believe it's super cid unlocked. I'm unable to do anything except for hard resets and bootloader screen. I was going to try to reflash the original rom but can't seem to find any, I only have access to the sp3 roms which I can't use since it's not super cid unlocked. Any help would be great!!!

iMate OEM ROM
http://rapidshare.com/files/61129896/SP3_WWE_2.4.33.11.zip
Here is a link to an iMate OEM ROM. Start in bootloader and execute this to see if you can recover your device. You haven't shared much about what you phone is or how it ended up like it is. You are correct that it needs an OEM ROM, then application unlocked then Super CID unlocker before flashing a custom ROM. Good Luck and report back you results.

The phone is a Krome IQ700. In bootloader mode it shows IPL 0.27 SPL 1.01.0109 Typhoon UI. Another problem is active sync does NOT see the phone. When attempting to load any rom I get error 264. I think I might have to load rom with SD the only proble is I've never had to do this before so any help would be great. I could honestly live w/o the phone but I think this would be a great learning expirence. Thanks in advance.

after attempting your reply my phone is now dead and will not power on ...

Remove the battery and memory card, wait 30 minutes then re-insert the battery. Hold in the camera button and then plug in the USB. If it is still alive, it will open in bootloader (Red, Green, Blue) mode.

still dead... what do you think happened?

I had this once when my oem battery died. I was able to jumpstart it and get it to recharge using a 9v battery to kick it up from nearly 0V.
If you have a battery meter, you can test the contacts, looking for 4v across the battery terminals (remove battery from phon to test). If you get < 2v then you battery does not have enouge juice to power up.
Once you get power back, do you have the ROM from your OEM? You should be searching for it in the mean time. If I find anything on it, I will let you know as well.

Everything I see on your phone specs appears that it should respond and behave like all of the other Typhoons/Sp3's. As long as you followed the unlocking steps from Karhoe's post (second sticky on typhoon main page), your device should not be a brick. If you recover power, you may want to first flash an WM5 ROM from one of the posts then try to flash WM6 as this is the prescribed method starting from WM2003.

i reeallyyyy need somebody's help with unbricking my phone.. please hellpppp!!

alright.. i made a similar post to this before and i came across the wiki...
well i can't view what my SPL or my IPL because as soon as i turn the device on, all that shows is the boot loader screen and displays serial on the top with 0.16-0.90 in red characters on the bottom (I'm not sure what those are)...
here are the only details that i know about my phone:
I DON'T have hard SPL
My Original ROM i was using before was an htc windows mobile 5 rom
The reason that my phone is bricked right now is because the usb cable disconnected in the middle of the flash
I'm using Windows Vista for flashing
Computer won't recognize the phone when on usb
My phone (qtek 9600) can't load the operating system
*EDIT*
THE PHONE IS STUCK ON BOOTLOADER WHEN I TURN IT ON, NOTHING ELSE, BUT THE BOOTLOADER SCRREN DOESN'T SHOW MY SPL AT ALL.
ALSO, MY COMPUTER DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THE PHONE....... MY PHONE HAS A TYPE 2A BRICK
Helping me will be greatly appreciated
come on.. I'm without a phone

Do you have a 2GB or smaller SD card? Copy a rom image to it and rename it HERMIMG.NBH
Turn it on and you might get lucky!

Just make sure its stock rom that was supplied, or the updated WM06 version as the CID should check out then...
vwkess forgot to mention, reset into bootloader, hold power, ok button and reset with stylus. Hold all buttons in until you get to the tri-colour screen. If it works, follow the prompts....
Cheers...

hi,
i think i can hlep.
i had recently bricked my phone with a custom wm6 image, it worked fine for two days and then i reboot, and all i see was the welcome image, nothing else.
so what i did is -
i pressed the hard reset buttons - power + OK + SOFT RESET (Stylus), kept it pressed for 3-4 seconds, the fone rebooted, the screen was full with some colored bricks i connected my fone in USB and on screen i saw USB.
I then again flashed my fone with the working update, it worked perfectly for me, try may be you can get some luck
ps - before doing all these, i turned my fone off by removing the battery, i removed sim card and mmc card as well.
regards

That may work too, but again, try to flash with a stock rom, untick "connect with USB" in activesync and then try.
Make sure you go to boootloader screen, instruction in rajivlodha's post, before you connect to the pc.
Goodluck...

I need some help as well.
I think I may have bricked my phone. It's a rooted htc hero cdma. I'm running cyogenmod on it and it was working fine, until using metamorph to apply some changes to the theme.
I went to reboot, and it now it won't load past the htc screen. Even when i try the key combination to put it into recover mode. I didn't install a nandroid backup, and i'd be fine with just completely wiping my phone. help is appreciated.

[Q]My P3450 Totally Dead After downgrade to its original dumpedROM

Hi,
I really need help seriously
Today I upgraded my P3450 to Onnyx Ultimate 4.8 and it was successfull.
Then I think again, I want to go back to original shipped ROM that I've backup before.
I do as mentioned on this page :
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_HowtoDumpRom
I used the complete backup to restore the ROM. ( I made 2 backup files, first only OS and Ext ROM, 2nd All of them).
It run success until 100%, then the device reset, and after that it never power ON again.
What should I do?
Please, HELP, it is about one week I bought this PDA (
Thanks
Please Note the condition for the device :
1. With the battery inside, I plug in the charger, the orange light never ON. Completely dead.
2. There's no problem with the battery. I have friend who has ELF , I put my battery on his ELF, his ELF run normally.

Try removing battery than boot your phone in bootloader.
If it starts try flashing a shipped rom.

thanks for your reply, I've tried but nothing happened.
What was my mistake?
Before I upgraded, I've dumped my ROM. using the utilities as mentioned here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_HowtoDumpRom
I made two backup :
* One backup with the OS and ExtROM only (for others to use)
* And another backup with everything included (for yourself only, for warranty or selling purposes).
After that, seems everything to be Okay, and then I did as mentioned in this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445666
and then I flash Onyx Ultimate 4.8. And, I did it!!!
But then, when the device reboot, I saw a thin horisontal line on the top of the LCD. As I worried about my device, then I decided to go back to original ROM.
I did again this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445666
this is to flash any SPL: either update to hardspl this way or flash another spl over hardspl. (copied from other post)
0. make sure your device is synced to activesync!!
1. Run the elf-uspl.exe from ELF_USPL_2.26.0000.zip
2. Watch Screen and Press Enter When Asked.
3. Screen should Jump to White on Phone and on PC Flashing Loading Bar will Show.
4. Stuck in Black Ducky Loading Screen?, check Active Sync Connection or Do a hard reset on Phone first. But be sure to do the last Actual Flashing in White Screen. Sometimes this needs a few tries to go through white screen.
5. Done.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And I overwrite the .nbh file with the Complete ROM that I have dumped before.
Everything seems to be Okay, it uploaded 100%, then the disaster happened !!!!
The device went off, and it never get on again. Until now. I've tried many ways to make it On :
1. Remove the battery, and then plug it again, turn the power ON, and it still go off.
2. Remove the battery, plug in charger with no battery, try to power ON, still off.
3 Remove the battery, plug in the charger with no battery, push the camera button and reset button on the same time, nothing happened.
Please help me, I really frustated here What was my activity that could cause a damage to my Elf?
I've tried a repair man and he said that there's no J-Tag to turn on my P3450, I must change the machine to the new one....

Hi, I had same problem the other day just I could not power up my device after down grading, my device just rejected to work and went dead.
So I made the following steps then I was able to get it work in bootloader option only:
- Take the battry out
- Take the sim card out
- Take the memory card out
- wait for 1 to 3 minutes
- replace the battry back
- hold on the camera botton then press the power botton and hold it.
if it did not work, bring the battery out then replace it back then try press
the camera botton and press the power botton while keep on clicking the
camer botton, it should come to bootloader status. Wish you good luck.

Hi..thanks for your answer. I've done it but nothing happened. I really start to worry that my device really..really death.
When you're in that condition, did you plug the charger to the PDA while the battery still on it? Was the LED light up, green or orange? My problem is, there's no light up at all...no response

Could you make what happened clearer?
Did you flash an entire NBH image, SPL & IPL included, while using HardSPL?
Trying to replace HardSPL with a stock SPL has caused issues before.
HardSPL cannot be simply overwrited by a stock SPL.
Check out this thread to remove HSPL.

I think you're right on this one : Did you flash an entire NBH image, SPL & IPL included, while using HardSPL?
I thought I wanted to get back to factory default by flashing the complete NBH file, which include :OS, Ext. ROM, Radio, Splash, SPL, and IPL H3.
I run the "elf-uspl.exe" in the folder named "USPL_2.28.0000 with IPL_2.27", which I downloaded from this thread : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_HowtoDumpRom
(it was extracted from TOOLS).
after that I uploaded the complete ROM that I have backed up before. Actually I made two backups, one complete, the other only OS & Ext ROM.
guess my mistake is I restore the complete one.
If my device can not power ON at all (even when I plug in the charger, the light indicator not ON), can I still repair this?

htc will nt accept it ..but u can try with service centers..

There's one new fact I just found out today.
I have a friend with the same ELF as mine.
When I put my battery on his ELF, his ELF also can not power ON. But I still can charge my battery on his ELF and it shows 0% !!!!
I firmly believe that yesterday when I downgraded my ELF from Onnyx to its backup original ROM, the battery is still more than 90%, as I've checked it before.
Is it possible that teh conflict of Hard SPL and my original backup ROM drain the battery so fast? I am now holding my friend's battery, but I scare to put it on my ELF as I don't want to damage his battery, worry that there's some short circuit.
The other problem :
1. When I put my battery on my friend's ELF and plug in the charger, the light indicator shows orange light, sign that it is being charged.
2. When I put my battery on my friend's ELF and plug in the charger, the light indicator shows nothing, it is definitely OFF.
Any suggestion for my case?

Charge your battery in your friend's phone and try it in your phone ... and tell us....

I'm sorry if I'm not getting it right.. but you are contradicting yourself..
I mean when you put your battery in your friend's elf and plug in the charger.. does the indicator show orange light or not???!!

Yes, it is charged and shows orange light on my friend's ELF.
But when I put on mine, the light doesn't turn ON at all. Seems that mine can not charge the battery.
I've tried this way :
1. removed the battery and left the device alone for a few hours - no luck
2. charged the battery using a wall charger - no luck
3. removed sd card and sim card and tried the alternative reset at this link http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...ame=Elf_Resets using a wall charger. device booted into tricolor mode.
4. did the same alternative reset with a usb charger. once the device was in tricolor mode, flashed a cooked rom.
But unfortunately, there's nothing happened

sorry if i'm asking too many questions but what does the tricolor boot screen show?? (IPL/SPL) cause if the SPL is x.xx.cmon .. then HardSPL is still there and you would (probably) be able to flash another ROM..
is there a small "RUU" written the top write corner of the screen?? (written in white)

NOP, I am glad if somebody ask, means that there's someone who watching my thread.
The problem is, my Touch is not ON at all. totally dead. No light indicator, no power ON, just dead.
updated :
I have charged my battery until full 100%.
I did put on my device, holding the camera button while power ON, and still nothing happened. just dead.

did u try a hard reset ?? you can do it by holding the Call & End buttons and reseting with the stylus.. a confirmation msg will appear press the OK button (the large one in the middle)..
hope that will do you any good :S

I did hard reset, many times, but still can not work
I almost desperate thinking my dead ELF need some miraculuous to make it ON

hey bro i sent you my e-mail in a private msg so we can try solving this together in a better way..

Did you at least read the sticky thread entitled "Unbricker"??
If you cannot get to bootloader it usually means your battery is dead... or the device is fried. Try charging it on the wall charger for at least 20 minutes again.

only soln is to replace the entire motherboard
i did the same thing to my friend's mobile and it got totally dead
then i read that never to reinstall the original rom n never to downgrade your spl or roms
only soln is to get it repaired or replaced if under warranty by htc no one in the market can help u even htc will replace it they wont b able to boot it up hence if under waranty ur board will b changed for free
else buy a new one simple buddy ....

HTC P4350 dead after rom flash!!

Hello i tried to flash mine P4350 with at first Hard SPL , works fine after that place a custum rom, seems to works fine, but after a soft reset, NOTHING
even no LED activity. booting with holding camera button for 3 seconds, shows greens screen with ipl 1.08.0001 and 1.08.0001 and then is turns off..
IS this the end for the HTC????
Hello, ik can put a rom on the sd and boot it say illegal certificate?
Flashing from usb with romupdate utility says error 300 invalid update tool (rom update utility = 03.11.3.1)

if u are abel to get to the tricolor screen im sure you could reflash to another ROM (maybe it was a bad ROM/bad download) try flashing a ROM using the sd card (if you dont know how to flash from sd card search on it firs its all over the forum) make sure your battery is higher than 50%. well good luck.

Your SPL is not 4.0 or above. The HardSPL thread warns you against using the HardSPL on a SPL that low because it bricks the phone. You'll have to search for the Herald Goldcard method to revive the phone.
Other than that, this is not the right sub forum to ask those questions in.

Please I need help!!!
My rom flashing stucked on 80% over HTC herald and I had no other choice but to restart the phone and now its completely dead. tri color screen is not coming also.
Please help

I have 2 heralds which are having problems with turning on.
This is what works for me:
1) Take the battery out for 10 seconds
2) plug the charger into the phone
3) put battery back in the phone
4) press POWER button for 3 to 5 seconds
Try it few times - works for me fine, but not always !
