Hi guys i need some help if anyone can guide me how to fix my problem. I have an htc touch cdma it has been working fine for more than a year but recently it started rebooting some times or if it reboots it doesnt start again and i have to remove battery and other thinks for it to start. Reading the forum here i got some info about bricked phones so i used the gold card but i dont have the shipped rom because i parchased the phone as a used one. Any of u guys backup his phone before upgrading it and can send me a link to get the shipped rom that would be very helpfull or any other sugestions on my problem and how to fix it and also how to remove the ( test only ) screen that has from the gold card use.
Thanks in advance for all the work u guys are doing and i am really sorry if i am bugging you with my problem
u shouldnt have used the goldcard, that for solving a completely different problem. if your phone starts then it is NOT bricked.
u have to do a lot of reading to get some facts straight, anyway i think u have a hardware problem.
u have a vogue (touch cdma) this forum is for the elf (touch gsm).
so, go to the proper forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=389
and ask there
MOD EDIT
Moved to vogue forum

Hello Everyone,
I'm new to all this, I bought my HTC Touch ELF0100 HTC P3452 and after a week of use it start showing the Beta test release software massage, I been reading over the forums without any success on how to solve this issue, I can't use my new phone now, please any help would be appreciate it, I forget to mention that I bought it on Ebay and it came from china, I been trying to contact the vendor with no response from his part. Again, please help me or point me to the right direction on my search for a solution of this issue.
Thanks

It might be an unoriginal HTC device.
Take out your battery and check around whether you see a HTC logo, or some other words.
Windows Mobile 6.1 Lock in to Beta Massage
Thanks for replying,
If I take the battery out I can see the HTC logo on the lower right corner of the battery housing.
This maybe relevant or not, but I noticed that when I connect the device to my laptop and try to sync it, a massage pop out saying that the " device is a prototype and remember to change the vendor ID".
Is there any way I can reinstall windows mobile on it. At this time I do not have any information on the device.
Thanks for your help.

Hello,
Thanks for all the valuable information and posting you send me, unfortunately I'm not able to sync my elf with activesync and I cant either hard reset or neither of the buttons seems to be working beside the one to control the volume, when I press the power button and this one the phone display a " Enter bootloader / updated from SD Card? " message on the screen.

wait, im lost.
so what did you do to your device?
Hi
Did you by your device new or seond hand as this message may be displayed after flashing the unbricker test rom
so if it is second hand this device maybe was bricked and you will need to CID unlock and flash a new rom or search for an official rom for it
I buy it on ebay and supposedly was new, when I receive it it work fine but I noticed that the date was wrong and corrected it after that all I can see is the Beta test message when it load windows mobile 6.1.
Any help you guys can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

Make sure you leave negative feedback, so others do not get duped! if you cannot hard reset like normal Touch instructions, it is a Clone Elf or Elfin.. FAKE! Let others know!
the beta thing does not really mean its a fake, just could be installed incorrectly the OS, but if you caanot Hard Reset, that is a sign of a fake..... REPORT, NEG HIM!
Thanks guys,
I just found out that this is a fake ELF, I hard reset it following this link , now it it out of the Beta message, but if I try to correct the date again goes back to the same screen with it.
I know that you guys do not support fake ELF, but can I flash the rom on it to a new one, or does anybody know how to get rid of the message and use to current date and time?.
Thanks for your help.

Usually flashing a genuine HTC rom will brick a unoriginal phone.
You may want to try and there is a thread on it.

See how it goes.
NOT ADVISABLE.
Hi guys
I am having my friends Artemis in my hand. I never used this phone. But because my friend knew that I am a member of XDA he has challenged me to solve this problem. I have been trying hard to really make it work but somehow or the other its just not working. I tried microsd way, official ROM way, radio upgrade way but its just not working. Its showing update 300 error on all such attempts. Here is the technical information.
ipl 3.07.0001
spl 1.11.0000
I think its CID unlocked but yet its not taking any ROM.
It just gets me greenblack screen other than the bootloader whenver I try to switch it on.
Would love to know why is it happening as soon as possible, or else it will be shame for me inspite of being member of such a smart community.
Looking forward...

Same is the case here, I am not so well versed with this old p series phones. I am still waiting for some solution to this grave problem. I took it to some technician but he said its motherboard problem which is something I am not convinced of.
I tried mtty being in bootloader but nothing happening. No support for the same problem is there anywhere. Looking forward to have someone with same problem experience.
Plz guyz this phone is dead,help us to make it alive. Cheers.
so sad. what we do now?
Actually my friend(my cousin) got this device from a scammer & I being the one who bought on this behalf has to make it right. It was just a few days old & here I am with this dead device.
I will disclose the name of that scammer so everyone at xda should beware from indulging in any transaction from him.
I got this deal from some other India forum.

I had a similar problem before when my orbit locked during a flash, from my knowledge your only way to fix this is by using an sd card, I used the sd card method with my carriers wm5 rom.
Note i had some problems with the SD Card flash method at first until i eventually used an old 256mb card, try a few different ones, borrow a card if yo need to and remember not sdhc and format it fresh. I wish you luck
Since you guys can´t enter bootloader, u may have a brick, .
Have u tried to get in contact with the QMAT guys?
Maybe they know how to fix it.

Hello and welcome on board,
Can you post up the exact error message you are getting please?
Also read this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477 which you will fond useful and come back with any questions.
Incidentally you are not a fool for asking as long as you have searched first.

hi mate thanks for the reply,when i go to the htc offical rom download,i'm asked to enter my serial number,which i do but says my device is not suitable and won't let me proceed any further??
cheers phil
got a major problem now ive tried to update to 1.48 but it crashed now i get a warning traingle on start up,and can go into bootloader screen and it says upgrade rom code error please try again???someone please help.i hope i havent bricked my phone
Is your HD2 branded? (bought it in combination with a contract?)
hi mate its on vodafone contract buts its not branded.
Hi again,
Have you tried to hard reset your phone to see if the old rom boots up again?
If it does not then you might want to reflash your existing rom onto your phone using the SD card method (look at the threads at the top of the Rom Development page to find what you are looking for).
If it works and you are still keen to upgrade the rom you need to read the threads on using either the Goldcard or HardSPL methods to upgrade.
Come back and let us know how you got on.

hi mate i was having the exact same probs as the chap in the hd2 bricked thread,same messages etc and stopping at 9% i took there advice and reflashed the hpsl again which has worked a treat,i'm now a little dubious bout trying to upgrade as i don't fancy bricking it.
ive emailed htc to see why i cant upgrade from 1.43 to 1.48 seems odd it says my phone isnt suitable.
p.s thanks for the help mate much appreciated
OK, wait until you hear back from them. However if you are now up and running and have installed HardSPL, I think you will find that flashing a new radio on its own might help solve your problems.
I think if you look at the thread you were referring to (this one...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084), IIRC, MysticGenius runs through a procedure for doing this that helped him sort out a similar problem.
Good luck with it.
WB
PS: Lesson learned here though is to read exhaustively on the topics on here BEFORE jumping in as fixing problems later can be both time consuming, if you are lucky, and a pain in the rear. As for that horrible sick feeling you get when you think you have bricked £500 worth of phone....wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy!

Hi Guys!
I just traded my iphone to a HTC HD as I love the huge screen and wanted to have a change.The problem is that every time I switch it on, the HTC logo is discolored and same goes with the Windows 6.1( the green screen ) All I'm doing is push the power button off and on again and it the screen will be ok. I'm not sure if the previous owner did with this HD but I would like to have it fixed?I tried hard reset already but still the same.
Anybody have the same experience before or knows how to fix it? There are no other issues actually aside from that.
Hope you guys can help me out
As far as I remember this display discolorment had to do something with bad flash..
Try to reflash the ROM or flash another one...
there are tons of guides on this forum so just google how to flash...you should be ok then...
Thanks Sopis!
I'll look for it. hopefully won't be so complicated. Noobie in WM phones..

Hi guys
Really like the forum
Ok
So i've been asked to unlock a this phone as a favor
So got home after having some drinks(not the best idea) and tried unlocking it
Long story short i installed a wrong spl as i understand and now the phone stays on the splash screen
I did lots of research in the forum, allot of ppl have the same problem, but didnt find a complete answer on how to fix this
as i now understand i should first application unlock it, then hard spl and then flash custom rom
On the Bootloader it says
"cEDA100
SPL-0-39.0000
MicroP-Cedar.W(LED) v58B"
And on the bottom "Serial" witch as i now understand means its not application unlocked?
So when i try to flash it it allways stays on 0%
And as i said it stops on the htc splash screen
Tried hard resetting the first way, but nothing. Cant find the original telus rom and i dont have an htc donor to do the 3rd hard reset way
Any help would be much appreciated right now guys ASAP cause am leaving canada by 2mrw
Thanks for reading
Hope u can help
Moved to general as not rom development
Anyone?
C'mon guys xD
Give me something
