Hi all!
My Trinity does not always start up properly. I press the power button and the green light comes on but nothing else shows on the screen and it stops booting. This happens very ramdonly and mostly when it has been switched of for a while. It stops just before showing a screen with red lettering where you can read the ROM version & other stuff. Then I have to soft reset a few times and it will boot up ok.
Most of the time it starts up ok but this is really annoying, can you please help me!!!
Try a hard reset and install a stock/official ROM if the problem persists.
If it is still happenning with an official ROM, might as well send it for repair...
Thanks for your answer. I will try an official ROM and will see what happens.

Hi all,
Since last friday I'm the happy owner of an S200, until sunday atleast. After a soft-reset, initiated from windows, my device won't boot anymore. It hangs in the red-green-blue bootloader screen (says: IPL 2.09, SPL 2.09). I've tried soft-resets and hard-resets, but the device would consequently keep hanging in the bootloader.
So for the past few days I've been searching the web and just managed to update the ROM. I was expecting that updating the ROM succesfully would mean my device would boot again, but it still keeps hanging in the bootloader (saying IPL 2.09 SPL 2.15 now, so the update did take place).
Does anyone has any idea whats wrong with my phone? Or how to fix this? Please help.
* bump *
I've been searching further and tried to do a SD dump, but I'm getting the message I don't got enough rights to perform a SD dump. This meens my S200 isn't CID unlocked. Is there any way to CID unlock the device without the need of booting into WM?
The solution to your problem
Hello, if you are having bootloader screen right after starting your mobile (prophet) check if your camera button is depressed since i had the similar problem. In my case i had to disassembly the phone in order to fix it. Right after fixing the button it worked fine
hi syzzer,
i really feel with you - why? - i have the exactly same problem. after i tried to upgrade my rom from o2-germany to another one the device isn't starting anymore and hangs in the beautiful-colored bootloader. and now, if i just even want to re-install the same or another rom, doesnt matter which one, the s200 wont start again. i think this is a really unlucky situation for us to stand alone with our weak pda =) hoping for more help, otherwise we have to take up our warranty and try to get it fixed by the store we did buy it (if a rom-update damage is still in warranty )
good luck
budy!

hello Syzzer
I have the same problem, but i make a soft reset and it works.
Camera but + Com Button + Power
Wait until message appear.
You Get the message : For Hard reset press send
If you choose other key the system boots normaly.
I had already tried all your suggestions, but nothing seemed to work.
About a month ago I bought a Trinity. In the mean while, I forgot I had put my S200 in my bag and carried it around for a month. When I found it a week ago and started pressing random buttons, it suddenly booted and has been working ever since! The problem has gone as mysterious as it came. I can only imagine there was some hardware failure / dirt in my device that caused the trouble and is now gone / moved to some place it does not do harm. Because I already bought a Trinity, I gave the S200 to my brother. He's been using it ever since and did not have any problems. So keep your head up, there's hope!
I m also having the same problem
Now I am having the same problem, no button is pressed, and I can not install the NVID ROM
Actually I can install only a few ROMs, the NVID ROM was working before on my Neo perfectly but, I think it can be because I have changed many ROMs, from a month, actually I have tried different WM6 ROMs and I used NVID ROMs mostly for Step 1.
Now when I install any ROM, it shows a msg some nbf one after 80% or 95%
It can install the pdaviet first step ROM, but now the problem is that it hangs very much and it can not start Wifi, it has stopped working, a few more ROMs i have tried, but the WIFI is completely stopped.
When I press it in communication manager, it will show busy icon for a few seconds and will not start it in end.(I tried it in both WM5 and WM6, same problem, I also tried after soft reset and hard reset, the problem is still there)
Please someone help me out.
I updated my rom to the 3.14 for the gps. after that I was stuck in the bootloader screen, downgraded rom to the one from htc website (2.17).
now phone works fine except when I press the power button to turn the display off you should be able to just press it again to turn it back on.Instead my green status light stays lit for like 2 seconds and then starts blinking like normal but the screen never turns on. Must remove battery and phone reboots fine just cant touch the power button same thing keeps happening. Any help or ideas on this?
Have you tried a hard reset?
yes it has me press r to confirm then after it says to reset press spacebar to boot, and still same problem.
i've even tried installing the 2.17 rom update a few times but nothing seems to help, I even thought about calling sprint to see if they could help. I'm currently running the latest rom from htc so i dont think they could say its my fault and them not fix it

Having this exact problem with the 2.17 ROM. It's linked FROM Sprint's site so I'm sure it's an official release.
Let me know if you find out anything and I'll do the same.
I had the same problem. I tried to re-flash to an older hard-spl (I think it was olipro 1.10) and everything seemed to work again.
I'm having this same problem as well...
This is a symptom caused by running the level 1.x unlocker with the level 3.x ROM, or the level 2.x unlocker with the level 2.x ROM.
Flashing the proper bootloader (unlocker) should fix your problem. Level 1.x bootloader with level 2.x ROM and level 2.x bootloader with level 3.x ROM.

HTC P3400i GENE100 Dead
I have a HTC P3400i GENE100. I successfully installed orefkov SPL and then upgraded my original ROM WM 6.0 to cooked wm 6.5. After installation my device was too slow than before hence I flashed it with RUU_Gene_hTC_Asia_India_1.17.720.1_4.1.13.34_02.79 .90_Ship.exe. After flashing it 100 % my New Gene restarted, but didnt boot to booting screen. Its not going into bootloader mode also. It shows blank screen i.e. black. I tried several combinations of keys (Camera + Power button or Camera + Reset or by pressing both "-" button + Reset) for going it to bootloader mode. But none of them working. When I plug in charger the green & red light blinks once and nothing else. Same if I press reset with stylus, the green & red light blinks once and nothing else happens. I know that I have bricked my New Gene, when I flashed the ROM, which was meant for Old Gene, which I came to know after reading the posts in this forum. I have to use JTAG Method for recovering my Gene. Hence I have read many posts about it in this forum. But can any one of the great masters here, help me with a proper guide that can help me recover my Gene 100%.
Thank you for spending your valuable time in reading this post.

pleaseeeeeeeeeeee guys help me.....
So a friend have a problem with a ROM, and i decides to flash rom radio and with an other ROM and when i'm flashing HD2 freezing and lock at 53%, i trying to flash with any others Roms and i have a big problem, hd2 no reboot,, and no reboot in bootloader mode too after :S
i trying the Hard Reset manual and nothing !!
Who can help me ???
Sorry for my bad english!
Friendship Kindly.
if you can't get into bootloader then it is probably dead.
So volume down while pressing the reset key doesn't do anything?
If you plug it into a charger does the red led come on?
What version hd2 is it?
Thank's for your answer so,
i can't make it in bootloader even if i press volum down button and press the end key, he does nothing :s but he return in bootloader mode one time / 50 ...
when he connect to a source i don't see the red led for charging batterie :s
and i don't know what is this model, it's an HD2
And the last time i boot it, it's written Software uptade fail, try again with a /!\
If its a US T-Mobile one (has T-Mobile at the top and green & red buttons at the bottom) then its most likely that the radio he has flashed to it is the wrong one.
If this is the case, then there is no fix.
Otherwise, its best to see if you can send it back for repair
Hi, i am sure someone will have an answer(even if it is to say...there is nothing that can be done) to the problem with my phone.
I am not a technical person...use the phone with still its original settings...rom etc..
today the internet stopped working (maybe connection issue). so I tried to switch off and switch on again. the phone is not starting again...i have tried soft reset, removing the battery, sim card, memory card etc.. no luck
when i press the power on button..i hear the buzz...then the screen lights up with the HTC logo and some numbers at the bottom..which are
R2.04.50.22__2
G15.26.50.07U
D1.43.70124
And then nothing happens...
i have not yet tried the hard reset option..as would not like to loose the details on the phone...if possible. But if it is the only option, i am willing to try.
I will be grateful for your help, and please explain in plain terms if possible..kindly be patient if i do not understand the technical terms..
thanks in anticipation
Hi,
If read your post correctly you have not made any attempt to alter your phone's ROM and it is still as supplied.
Looking at the radio and ROM installed this is probably outside warranty, which is why you are asking rather than returning to your vendor.
This being the case it does not sound like your phone is booting and a hard reset will make any difference.
Will the phone start in the bootloader mode (achieved by turning the power off completely and holding the vol down button while powering up).
This is a tri-colour screen and is restarted by removing the battery.
It sounds like the ROM is corrupt or damaged.
You could try loading the stock rom from your provider or loading one of the very good cooked rom's from this site if it just corrupt.
This process is a bit long winded and will need extra direction if you have not spent any time on this site.
thanks
thanks for the reply waspsl
u r right, i have not changed the rom
and it is out of warranty
it starts in the bootloader mode..i.e i can see the 4colours(includind white) and the bottom says "serial" and then when connected to computer says "usb"
nothing further happens
when i open windows mobile device center, the phone is not connected
what next do i do?
how do i load the rom?
thanks again
amar
hard reset sorted the problem for now(although i lost the data)
thanks
