There are two possibilities to flash a device:

2. Normal booted device via Active Sync
But i do not know what you mean with USB Flash Mode

i wish i never bothered the device was perfectly running fine until i flashed it with this via usb it all was a succes when i done a hard reset i got a screen with a oz up logo and underneath it says "microsoft internal use only" this operating system image is meant for use only by microsoft employees and contractors ,,and the crazy thing is i cannot enter my bootloader which was v5.15 so i can flash it via sd card its vanished no bootloader only that screen and on the bottom right corner it says ,,g32s54,v4.08,3.04 when i plug it in usb all i get is a unknown device and i cannot flash it so please if there is a way even if its pretty technical i would be honoured if you can help me out i would be very grateful if u cn show me a way of getting the bootloader back many thanks

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_GSMError
don't use the 4.16 use the rs 4.21 when i did the upgrade i was then able to connect to active sync then changed the rom try the special rom 1.2
hope this helps

mate the problem i have is that i cant acces the bootloader for me to do anything its gone and this happened after using that dodgy rom
all i want to no is there a way of putting back the bootloader on to the device as its not there its been somehow erased after the flash i done

mate if you try what i said to try this should help you to connect your phone back to your pc then you can change the rom from there you shold get bootloader back when you put a new rom on

no bootloader on wallaby
hello again ,,to jay05 thxs for replying back but u dont seem to understand what i am saying i will say it more clearly hopefully someone can help ,
ok there is no bootloader on the device its been erased when i do a hardreset nothing happens so can someone please tell me how to put back the bootloader on the device ,,its impossible via sd card and when i connect it via usb cable all i get in my device manager is a usb device as"HTC USB SYNC"
ok so there must be software that can somehow flash this pda as the computer recognises it as a htc usb sync ,,i done a search on google and found several software that runs on similar setups like the treo but none for wallaby so please someone there must be a way to upload the bootloader back to the device via usb cable pls someone help me out i also tried the xda developer tool pnewbootloader no use nothing happens
there must some kind of special HTC software that can flash the chips on the pda similar to the jtag technique but thru usb as again i repeat my comp sees the pda as a htc usb sync
i hope someone can help
many thanks and a happy new year

Can't update ROM? Please do help!! *STUCK*

I have a T-mobile MDA G3 U.S. and I had it unlocked and flashed with some custom ROM I don't remember. I got a Herald couple days ago so I gave it away to a friend. As requested by him, I flashed it with a Chinese wm6 rom. However, it turned out he wanted to use touch flo and stuff so we found another Chinese ROM with that and flashed it. During the flashing process, I noticed an unusual long waiting time after the progress bar got to 100%. After succeed, the ROM turned out to be the original Chinese ROM again. I figured there might be some problem with unlocking so I unlocked it with lokiwizard tool again, but this time it won't even lemme update the ROM! RUU tool said "Communication error". The problem turned out to be the phone cannot establish USB connection under 3 color mode(when I plug it in under 3-color, computer sounds like you plugged in a failed USB device). Now I can't even flash it with the original T-Mobile 2.26 WWE! I tried hard reset and everything but I still can't connect under 3-color mode. Though that ActiveSync worked fine. Please help me!
(Maybe I can, in some way, flash it without USB?)

You got to have usb working to flash,check if the usb cable is faulty or the mini usb port of the phone.Did you try with a different usb cable or on a different usb port of the pc,even you can try with some other pc.If the usb cable is faulty,replace it,but if its the mini usb port of the phone,it'll have to be either repaired or replaced.
There's no other possible method to flash a rom,the only other method which might be possible is through Sdcard backup rom using MTTY commands,but its only possible if you had already backed up the rom on a Sdcard and the phone is already CID unlocked.

I tried replacing two more USB cables and on a different computer, still no luck.
Wierd thing is, I have USB working under ActiveSync, but not in 3-color mode. I don't know much about how the phone works but I figured the 3-color mode might be a part of SPL? And somehow I've damaged it. The phone still works fine, plus ActiveSync. It's just I can't flash it anymore.

thanks to zabardast,
it turned out to be I had tried with 2 faulty cables... =/
Well I'm still stuck with this ROM, I used lokiwiz03a to unlock my phone and it worked fine(IPL/SPL 2.26). When I was using RUU to flash it, I still have the same problem. Nothing was flashed, nothing happened. What should I do?

Download WST_4.2.2 tool and run the 'CID Action' button to verify the CID lock/unlock status of the phone and proceed further,you need to use lokiwiz02b to work on G3 device for CID unlocking and not lokiwiz03a.
Secondly, Hard Reset the phone,it might be that Extended_Rom has got corrupted and download the official carrier's rom and flash it to recover back to its default working status and than go further.

Help Required; Screen Stuck...

Hi all,
I just did my first experiment at cooking a ROM (did some tweaking and built the ROM) using OS Kitchen. After I copied the ROM to my phone using ROM Update utility, the phone is stuck at this screen:
"Preparing the phone for first use. The Today screen....etc etc"
I am now not able to establish an active sync connection to my PC in order to load a new ROM. What can I do? Pls help...
I have installed the HSPL by jocky
Thanks in Advance

Whew!!! Got it working. For a moment, I thot I had bricked my phone. These r the options I considered:
a) Booting the phone using the mini sd card. I guess one has to use Gold Card for that but I didnt have a mini sd card reader on my PC in the first place so that option was out.
b) Next I read in the forums abt starting the phone in boot loader mode, and this is what finally worked. It seems, as an alternative to getting an activesync connection, one can connect the phone to the PC using USB and then start in bootloader mode (by pressing vol down and end call). This way, a connection via USB is established between ur phone and PC. Now flashing any ROM is just a cinch using stock roms or custom roms (using the custom RUU)

Pfew
Got stuck too and used this trick to load stock rom.
Thx a million

Bootloader not detected at PC

Hello,
Today i have tryed to flash a new CWM on my HD2.
But i get always an error "USB init. Failed" so i've searched in google an in this forum for an solution but i haven't find any.
I've tryed to flash CWM in Bootloader mode but my pc's (2 XP ones and 1 Win7) don't detect my phone.
Please Help

install windows mobile device center to your pc.otherwise it doesn't recognize it.

I have installed WMDC. But it doesn't recognize it at all.

but cwm isnt flashed from bootloader? r u using magldr or clk?

MAGLDR but also in Flasher mode nothing happend. In WMDC i have already disabled USB Connections but also -.- nothing

try another pc. and last solution format pc(i did so a few weeks ago when i met the same problem)

after last time i formated my computer imy phone wasnt detected in computer ...in bootloader i couldnt see USB just serial ...i just installed activesync ...and right after phone was detected ...so try to install activesync and see

[q] htc hd2 flashing rom issue
Can anybody help me.I have MAGDLR and the Bootloader installed by a previous chap who owned the phone, all the correct versions. THe phone HD2 (T-Mobile), when I got it, had Gingerbread on,but the FM radio was not working,
so I thought an Upgrade was in order. I went to the MIUI website and downloaded the latest stable rom and followed the instructions as best as possible, but I had problems with the
Bootloader going from Serial to USB and being able to flash the rom like that. I then tried the loading the rom ZIP file to the SD card, and then using Clockwork orange recovery to
to install the ZIP file from SD card. That being said, I rebooted and the phone just stayed hung on the HTC logo screen. (And I didn't do a back up, before I started.)
I eventualy found a Jaws MIUI rom, that instaling via Clockwork Orange, worked, but it is Froyo and not a lot of stuff works very well. What is the correct procedure to install
from SD card, with Clockwork Mod Recovery? The Roms that I download, do I have to unpack the zip, do something on the files? I have read that depending on the rom that you have, when
doing a ClockWorkMod Recovery installation, that you need to have the right Size partition or image disk version of the Clockwork recovery MOD, But I can't swap and change this as my USB does not work between the phone and the PC.
I have installed active sysnc, does not work and I have tried this both on my Desktop and Laptop. As the one response suggests, Formatting your PC seems a bit extreme.
Help, Pleeeeeeeeez!
Thanks
