IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
OS 1.0.13.21
can you please tell me how you fixed yours please it would be a great help

What you could do is flash it with an newer rom
Hold camera button AND reset (be asure that it hold it while resetting)
Then... you are in you bootloader... connect the PDA with your PC..it will recognized it!
Then run the romupdate ;-)

help the wizard is dead after upgrading to new rom

hi all ..
I did flash my HTC wizard with new rom after finishing the install the device reboot and stacked on the boot screen then I tried to go to the boot screen but I couldn't , I tried to make hard rest but also I coudn't nothing is working even charing the device cant be made .
bye bye

Are you able to get to a multi-colored screen with numbers?

In case you don't know, to get to the bootloader screen hold down the camera button and press the power button.

now i got the same problem.
I updated the rom & now i have the multi-colored (red/green/blue/white) screen
with RUU - IPL 2.18 - SPL 2.18 - USB on it (Qtek 9100)
I downloaded the tools from Vippie in the thread "How to flash a new ROM to your Wizard... a little tutorial!" but those won't help...
anybody got any advice? I would like to install WM6...
thanks in advance!

wizard g3 stuck in spl/ipl screen

hello everyone. i just bought a g3 wich remains stuck in the ipl/spl screen. i tried VIPPIE 's tutorial (many thanks man for ur work) and flash button rom 1.05 to revive the phone. it flashed without any error , but same result. phone doesnt pass the ipl/spl screen. next i tried to flash Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102, flashed ok but nothing happend. i m just stuck on the ipl/spl screen. the phone isnt bricked but i can not start it to do a soft spl and flash it. any ideas ?
because it s an o2 xda mini s , i thought an original o2 rom would do the trick (start the phone) but i couldnt find an original rom (tried the xda dev ftp page and the o2 one).
many thanks
ps:sorry for the double posting(wizard+wm6) but now i figured out that since my phone doesnt start and hasnt a wm6 rom on it , the place for this thread is here

Is it the Bootloaders screen(Tricolor) with IPL/SPL or initial loading screen with ipl/spl ?
What ipl/spl...? it displays at the moment ?
You can try to get into Bootloaders mode (tricolor screen) by pressing and holding down the camera button and press the Soft Reset button at the same time with the stylus or turn off the phone and while pressing and keeping holding down the camera button,Power On the phone,it'll wake up and go into Bootloaders (tricolor screen).if it goes into bootloaders,connect your phone to the pc via usb and check if small usb appears at the bottom of the bootloaders screen,if its there run the Ruu to flash,But first post your present ipl/spl..? here.
Cheers

hmm , this is from XDADeveloperWiki
Once the flash is done and your Wizard is rebooted, it will display an IPL of 1.xx and an SPL of 2.xx.

well, in my case , after button rom flashes wizard displays IPL 1.01 SPL 1.03 and after i flash the xda_mini_launch_rom it displays IPL 1.03 SPL 1.05 . NOT SPL 2.xx as mentioned in the tutorial . why ?

zabardast_1 - many thanks for the quick reply mate. it starts with the ipl spl screen. i wrote the values above.
i get it into bootloader with the camera + on button , bot the active sync on the systray , doesnt activate, it remains grey (like no device is connected). weird stuff.
yesterday i just upgraded a g4 wizard to wm6 and everything went smooth , an now

ok,after flashing button's rom or xda_mini you'll certainly have an ipl/spl 1.xx,cuz these roms have actually ipl/spl 1.xx,they are aku 1.xx roms,it's required to have ipl/spl 1.xx to use lokiwiz02b tool to SIM/CID unlock the phone,only then it can be upgraded to any wm6 roms.But to upgrade to wm6 its essential to have ipl/spl 2.xx,so to get to ipl/spl 2.xx,you have to flash your phone with T-mobile 2.26,then it'll show an ipl/spl 2.xx as required,ok
Cheers

thanks mate , but in order to do the lokiwiz soft spl i need to have a working phone (i need to write the cab into my phone and execute). by doing so , my phone needs to work after flashing the button rom or the xda mini launch rom (right?). but mine , after flashing, remains in the ipl/spl screen (not the bootloader).
if i flash an o2 xda mini original rom , do i have a chance to revive the phone and to start it in order to apply the lokiwiz soft spl ?

Activesync will not work in bootloaders mode,bootloaders cut off the activesync,you can only verify the connectivity between your phone and pc,if in bootloaders,connect the phone to the pc via usb cable and check if small usb appears at the bottom of the bootloaders,if its there then just flash the rom,there's no need to establish connection through activesync,ok

YES ! first of all you got to have a working OS on the phone to activesync,only the you can perform with lokiwiz02b,ok

ok , so what should i do in order to start it succesfully and use lokiwiz. i cant find an original o2 rom and button rom or launch rom doesnt start my phone. what can i do ?
the o2 roms were deleted from xda dev ftp
ps : mate , if u r kind , log in to yahoo or msn , i m trying to contact u . ty

after a lot of searching and digging, i found the missing xda dev ftp O2 original roms . i flashed Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102 , everything went ok , same result. doesnt pass the ipl spl screen. tried RUU_Wizard_1050402_101_11210_O2_ENG and same thing. im getting really confused. my pc responses when i connect the wizard, it flashes with no errors , but it wont start. what can i try more ?
ohh, i have made a new nasty descovery: when i keep pressed down the comm button and the voice button and press the reset with stylus, the phone turns off and restarts in spl/ipl screen instead of hard resseting. is it really messed up ?

I'm afraid m8,it has most probably some hardware issues,better get it checked by some techy or mobile repair shop.
Cheers !

thanks mate. you are most probably right. do you have any idea what should be checked and how ? i ask this because the software part is clearly damaged.
can i revive it using mtty program ? as a last resort. some mtty commands ? ty

OS Launch death

My friend has an Orange M600 (UK G4) variant of the prophet.
I’ve done the recovery flash of the device and just re-flashed it with the orange ROM.
Problem is, I’ll get the splash screen saying orange…. But after a while a line appears across the screen (vertical if that makes any difference) and the screen then fades to either a black screen with an orange line on it or a white screen with a turquoise-ish line on it. The only way to turn the device off is to remove the battery.
Here's the info from the splash screen
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.20.0001
GSM 02.47.21
OS 2.10.1.22
Any ideas what the problem could be, and where and roughly how much it could cost to repair? Thanks for any help guys and girls

Ever tried flashing with an AKU ROMS? the one that I used to repair my bricked Dopod 818 Pro G3 is with this ROM from l3v5y found in his thread here. Another thing, in my experience, if u want to flash your device in a dead state, you have to enter the SPL mode (Hold COMM button while turning on, you'll get a screen with 3 color.), after you flashed back to the NVID (No Vendor ID) ROM, then you can easily flash any ROM that you prefer given that you have HardSPLed your device once or JumpSPLed if that doesn't work, read this thread here. Hope this helps.

Yeah, unfortunately that's part of the recovery flash
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_recovery
It won’t boot with any ROM on it, can get to the splash screen but then it just fades to previous motioned screens....
I ran out of ideas (apart from poss hardware failure)
I wish these were like the universal... easy to fix, flash etc

Herald Doesn't start after a bad flash

Hi everybody,
I went to a store this evening in order to unlock my Polaris. The owner of the store has got a HTC herald with a problem that he wanted me to solve.
He tried to install another rom on his herald but, due to an unsuccessfull rom upgrading, the HTC is locked on a RGB screen (red green blue) with the only following indications:
RUU
IPL 1.08.0001
SPL 1.08.0001
USB (or nothing when not plugged)
Would you mind helping me? I tried several Roms, and there was only one that seemed to work (ROM HERALD_ smiley sWWE.gif _6.1.405.13_BUILD 20764.1.4.3): It gave me a progress bar on the HTC frozen at 0% while the upgrading tool on the pc told me that I needed a more recent upgrading tool.
What can I do?
Thanks for all the solutions you'll give me

Before installing cooked ROMs I believe the phone must be HardSPL'ed, and this can only be done if the SPL/IPL is 4 or above - any lower/not HardSPL'ed and the device will be bricked. The screen you are describing is the bootloader, and since you only have an IPL/SPL of 1.x I'm pretty sure you can't install custom ROMs. To unbrick the device, turn it onto the bootloader and then load the original HTC ROM that came with the device.
Hope this helps,
czhang

Dear Czhang,
I tried several times to enter in bootloader, but it's impossible as it starts with the bootloader menu! I can't change anything about that, even by soft resets, reset+camera, reset+buttons...
Do ya think this could work properly? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417930
As I am stucked with 1.08.0001 SPL, There is nothing to do. All the users who tried to unbrick their phone didn't got it working, except one who changed the motherboard for... 200$ ! The price of a used HTC Herald in very good conditions!
Still looking for help
Thanks
Nounou7701

sorry to say sir but your ipl and spl should have been 4.0 or higher and also HardSPL'ed. i'm pretty sure your device is bricked. GL on finding a way to fix it or buying a new one. =D

Nounou7701, though you cannot flash a cooked ROM with IPL/SPL 1.x you can definitely flash the official ROM from HTC.

AAAARRRGGHHH! thanks to everyone for the (bad ) news... I'll try to buy a mothercard, just like another user did...
Have a nice evening

He didn't head the warning of the SPL requirements. You can easily revive it using the GoldCard method. (Search for the term "goldcard herald".)
