..Yes i have tried a hard reset still no success...could you please explain to me what "installing Buttons 1.5 ROM at bootloader" mean? i am a noobie in these things really..
sure...first tell me if u have a G3 or G4 Wizard...and is it CID unlocked? you must be CID unlocked to perform any custom ROM modifications...

It must be a G3 Wizard (not really sure)because it came in as a XDA MINI S from O2 and at the splash screen it has this info: IPL:1.05 SPL:1.06 GSM: 01.01.10 OS:1.1.9.3 after flashing with Xda_minis_LaunchRom_v154102_2. i am not sure about CID unlock but i am using a different network other than O2. it was shipped with windows mobile 5.0...
a G4 PDA will report an IPL and SPL similar to 2.21.0001 and a G3 PDA will report something similar to 2.21 (notice the G3 doesn't have the trailing .0001!)

go to the above link and CID unlock your device just to be on the safe side...as for going into the bootloader, u can do this by keeping the Camera button pressed, and pressing the softreset button..then u will go into a colored screen(red,green,blue,white)which will show your IPL/SPL...once u are in that screen, go ahead and connect it to your computer(via USB) and u will notice on ur device, it will show USB on the bottom...then u can proceed with the guide to CID unlock your phone...let me know how it goes!! =)
Hi i installed the buttons rom like you suggested but it still hangs at the splash screen(beer jug)with this info IPL:1.01 SPL:1.06 GSM:01.12.10 OS:1.5.4.2. activesync does not recognize the pda in "hang mode" for me to be able to try CID unlocking...so where do i go from here ? please help...
oo wow...umm gosh im out all of ideas...i dont know what else to suggest, ive never heard of this type of problem....sorry!

So does it mean my fon is bricked or what? or could it be a hardware problem?
ummm i dont think its bricked, if it was, you wouldnt be able to get into the bootloader...im sure theres a solution to the problem, i just dont know it because ive never seen this type of case before, im fairly new to the MDA...i started modifying my wizard less than 2-3 months ago

..Well thanx for all the help,i will let you know if anything comes up..
i posted this in another thread but no one replied so thought this one mite be more busy.
i am new to all this and i stupidly went running into things and tryed to ROM upgrade my t-mobile MDA Vario II (HERM300), not knowing i had to CID unlock first, it has broke! when i boot it up i can not get passed the t-mobile splash screen and it also flashes "no-gsm". i have read many suggestions on fixing this but i have had no luck. i can get into the boot screen however and get the red green and blue stripes.
i have IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.04.
it will allow me to connect to my PC with USB but active-sync does not recognize i have connected the phone.
please help someone. i just need a way i can get this thing working again. if i could just get the phone into a state of use again that would be good.
please help, at least let me know if Ive got a chance of repairing it
i believe if you can get it in to bootloader mode you can flash back to original rom and start over
i thought that to but when i tryed the t-mobile rom it said "connection error" and also said it should be connected through active sync. but then agen it mite of been the wrong t-mobile rom but im sure it was for the vario ii. do you have a link to the one i should try please?
i downloaded the official UK shiping rom from t-mobile site and upgrading now through bootloader. will report on what happens.....
nope, keep getting "device not responding" or "connection error". any other sugestions?
i looked on here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick and it says that i have to "Flash any type2 radio in NBF format. If that doesn’t work, flash the radio using HERMflasher" please could someone tell me how to do this, if this is the solution to my problem or if there is another way around this. thanks.
please help someone i realy need to fix my phone
Cool down....
what's ur radio version?
Also have u read this? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SimUnlock - TRY THIS FIRST, before attempting anything else...
ok, i have tryed that "sim and cid unlocker" and i beleve that you have to connect with active-sync because when i tryed it when i was in boot loader it said that it was not connected but it was. i will get my radio version now.
EDIT: my radio version is: 0107
EDIT2: also, here are some other numbers (which i dont know what they mean but mite be needed) which apear on boot-up t-mobile splash screen, in red letters/numers, just before "no-gsm" flashes on:
M 05
S 04
B 06
D 1.21
If you can get into the Bootloader (Rainbow Screen) you should be okay (Not a Brick)
Go download a Radio Rom from the wiki.
Enter Bootloader first, then connect to PC. Then flash the Radio Rom.

Warranty got back my device back to life
Hi I bricked my device a few days back and tried all the stuff to bring it back to lifee but in vain... I finally gave up my trials and approached the service centre. They just replaced the motherboard inside and luckily everything seems fine now. They hadn't charged me anything as it was within warranty. Anyone in India if you need service centre address..

Though this site says HTC, I got my Dopod C800 serviced there...
Very few questions and cool guys.

Now I think that the reason of non flashing, even with official RUU, could be corrupted CID-block after using HardSPL on devices with low IPL/SPL. I've read thread about similar problem with Wizard. The question is: how to restore the CID block in our bricked devices? I'm not even sure if this theory with CID-block is a reason...
What do you think about such a trick:
- Run RUU on someone's working HTC device but only until the moment, when it wants you to click the last button to finally proceed with flashing. (This step is to let RUU to know that this RUU is correctly dedicated to our device). It's a kind of fake for RUU, cause our CID doesn't match the CID of ROM included in RUU.
- Next disconnect working device from the USB and connect your bricked device with launched bootloader mode
- Next click the final button to launch flashing in RUU application. If the process of CID matching was done before this step, the flasher should start and let us flash our bricked device. But I'm sceptic to this solution. If it was so trivial, everyone could flash his device with different ROMs so easy...
I can't try this trick cause I don't have working HTC. What do you think? Will it work or not?

D'you mean
working Herald or any HTC?
I have the same prob
I'm thinking about working device, exactly the same as this bricked one - in this case Herald. But all of this is only a theory. I don't have enough knowledge about the RUU flashing process.
My another idea is to swap only ROMUpdateUtility.exe, rapitool.exe and EnterBootloader.exe files from official RUU dedicated to your bricked device, with different versions of these files from another HTC devices just to test if it helps to recognize our bricked devices by RUU. Maybe the problem is wrong version of these files? But which versions are correct?
I'm just trying to find a solution to unbrick our f.....g Heralds . I know this is only a matter of time and soon or later we will know what to do. Moreover I believe that there are people, even on this forum, who know how to unbrick our Heralds but some of them don't want to do us a favour. I know what I'm talking about...

i think we can manage it via bootloader commands
i know.. i know
(at least our devices run bootloader mode, is recoverable!)
it can be flashed by SD? how?
Welcome to the club...
As far as I know, SD flashing doesn't work because of the CID-lock.

there's a solution, a HOPE... (u try to flash with original flashfile?)
I thinks the solution is to unlock CID from bootloader mode, for old models i did so, but how to unlock Herald's CID
Hi all,
I have a iMate SP3 here that I'm trying to get working for a coworker. Long story short they did this once before and I re-flashed it with some ROM (no clue which one) to get it working. Well, they broke it again and it's at the bootloader screen.
Problem is, I have no clue what CID lock is on the phone. The SPL is 1.01.0107 and I can't really find any mention of it. The phone doesn't boot any further than the bootloader screen and needs to be flashed, but I'm not sure with what. So far it's rejected all the ROMs I've tried.
Info 2 in MTTY gives me the output below:
HTCSCDL___01 4š«@HTCE
Can anyone tell me what I can flash this phone with to get something booting on it again? Thanks
please visit ftp://ftp.clubimate.com
choose the appropriate rom for you
First of all I am so sorry to bother you all!!!, as I can see from 3 days of non stop reading here and e;sewhere, its not always liked to ask questions, but I am sorry I really need help!
I bought a 8125 cingular from eBay (bought a x01ht but it hasnt arrived)
I have read seriously so much I am now confused! But I have tried to research this 100%
when I got the phone yesterday, I first sim unlocked it with the "All HTC" unlocker.. then I used unlock ext rom wizard, and Likiwiz02 for the cid.. I did see it say "your phone is superCID" unlocked or what ever...
I then tried to flash with x2h_wm 6.5 and it went through the steps like it should and finished and said your rom is updated, BUT when the phone rebooted, it was like it went DOWN not up.. I lost alot of things and now it said G not E for network, I had less signal, and had the roaming Icon. Well, after that My XP computer would no longer recognize the device.. I would plug it in and it would charge, and the active sync tries to connect but after a few minutes it says it can not connect.
I am able to "sometimes" connect top my Vista" device, BUT I have not yet mastered being able to flash a rom with Vista... as I always get RUU is closing, because of error.. and it leaves my phone in bootloader RUU mode, so i have to reset it. I have tried the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723 and One time I was able to get pretty far without an errors from RUU, but it said I needed a newer version.. or something, and after that I am unable to do it do any RUU on vista, although most of the time I can get it to connect by going to the services- and restarting wm 2003 thing"
This is the details of my device (and yes I know is a G3)
IPL & SPL :2.25
gsn: 02.25.11
os: 2.25.11.1
Ext Rom: 2.25.11.102
Radio: 02.25.11
Rom 2.25.11.1 WWE (build 14928.2.2.0)
protocol ver: 4.1.13.12
My question is.. What am I doing wrong? How can I get either XP to connect, or Vista to run RUU?
Can I flash by sd card.. ( I have seen both yes and no, and am confused on how to do it)
Tweeks I have done is installed a cab to remove roaming icon, reg. changed the G to E for Edge... Speed it up bu changing mem. and I think that's pretty much it!
Scream at me and call me stupid, BUT Please help me.. There are 10000000000000 different HOW TO all over the place, and all are different, and I really just would like a little PERSONAL help from someone..
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!
Tony
Also.. On the Activesync issue.. I have uninstalled and delete all tracers on my xp laptop and reinstalled both the newest version , and when it did the same, I uninstalled and reinstalled an older version... Still the same!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Wizard
best thing is to start with reading the wiki
Read it over and over...
I am not just saying it when I say I have searched and searched!
UPDATE
Although I received no answers, I thought I would upddate... I am so embarrassed, as the active sync was an easy fix.. (disable Firewall) I cannot believe it is that simple, as it was working fine before with firewall..
Ok I am following the instructions now flashing with XP button rom, etc etc.. Will follow up later!
Ok progress!
Well, I was able to flash to phone to button rom, and then CID unlock it with lokiwiz, but My IPL and SPL are different. SO i flashed button rom again, and its still the same... Can I go ahead and flash back up, or what do I need to do?

OK... got it going again... flashing back down to button, the only one that would connect.. and I will build my way back up...
Sorry for posting so much.. and thanks for the help!
I have flashed to T mobile 2.26.10.2 , IPL/SDL are both 3.08 And I have tried several times to go beyond WM5.0 but It never loads.. Any advice...
Thanks
Connect the phone to the PC and run Wizard Service Tool and press Enab. RAPI + Unsigned Apps button.
Then press CID Actions Button and Read CID block, this will tell you if your CID unlocked.
Well, I will try that, BUT I am assuming since I have a Tmobile ROM on a ATT phone its no longer unlocked???
When I ran the unlocker it said it was now SuperCID unlocked or whatever..
I will do the Service tools and see.. and Post back soon! THANKS
It is locked!
OK.. I ran the tools and it said it was CID locked... this was the results (not sure if usefull or not)
Checksum : fb67d2a2
CID: WIZCNG01
Its funny because when I ran the other lokiwiz it said it was unlocked..
I tried to unlock it and it said downgrade SPL to 1.06 or less.. AND thats the problem... When I Loaded Button rom the 4 different times I have had to flash it.. THE SPL never changes down.. One time I flashed it, I repeated it 3 times as per some instructions i seen that if you flash it again it will change.. NOPE did not change, the IPL always changes, BUT SPL stays the same.. SO If I flash again, this is the results SPL 3.08 IPL 1.01
Can anyone help me .. maybe use a diffrent rom instead of button?
HELP PLEASE!
THANKS
Have you tried to go back to the original ROM?
Problem solved
I am still tinkering, and adding patches now... BUT I was able to get wm6.5 (VERY SLOW ON MY WIZARD) so I went back to button rom, and installed XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 ROM, and I LOVE IT!!! like I said I am still adding stuff and playing with it, but so far its better than WM6 I have on my Cheetah (treo750)...
I will add the steps I took , and trial and error steps, so other people that are impatient and ask questions like I did, will know what to do.,.. BUT let me play with my new toy for a while!!!
One question.. Should I stay with IPL/SPL 2.26? Or should I go back up to 3.08 or ?????
Thanks
