Help, My 8125 Screen display 256 colors.

It seems like it doesn't show 64K colors anymore.
I tried to hard reset several time, but no luck.
it happend just like that, I didn't install anything new .
Anyone ? Anything ?
I have the latest firmware.
PLEASE !
thanks,
Numnum

no idea.
have you tried downgrading the firmware to a previous version?
sounds like you're a bit buggered mate.

Thanks...
No, I didn't downgrade it yet.
I will try to do it ...but I ahve been working with the new FW for 2 weeks or so ...
Do you have any clue where I can find the old Firmware ?
Thanks.

old firmware
if you hunt arround the forums there are usually a lot of different versions lurking. just make sure you read the entire thread so you know about any problems.
i'll admit i've never actually done a downgrade but i'm sure if you read the instructions carefully it'll be easy. i'm sure i've seen somewhere on here how to do it. its definately worth a try. i's the first thing i'd do if I had your problem.
good luck.

me again ...
Downgraded...no luck.
Upgraded again, same $hit.
I'll post photos of the problem soon .
thanks for yor advice.
ND.

oh well
sounds like it might be a hardware problem then. is your phone still under warranty?
If it is then I'd put the original software back on and get it sent back.

mm...
I bought it month ago from Cingular.
Should I contact Cingular ? HTC ?
Thanks,
N.

Ignore me, I misread it...

There are a lot similar messages in the forums at this site, all from people with bricked phones and waiting for a solution that is not here (yet). The easiest and quickest way to have your phone up and running again is to send it to either you provider or imei-check. But this will cost time and money. In the meantime, there are a lot of tips and tricks (not allways working though) in the various threads, you might give that a chance. What is the risk? I would say, there is not any, since your phone is allready dead and the warranty went out the window the moment you tried to flash another ROM.

I took the risk and went to the store and told them that my phone was dead after installing a program, they looked at it and just send it for repair, so far so good. hope it will come back alive. From now on no more risks!! thanks for your tips people!! Let you know when phone is back and fixed...

*Urgent*Artemis Update 300 Error with no solution in sight*Urgent*

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

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.
WB

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!

[Q] Does anyone have JTAG hardware in Sydney/Canberra?

Hi all,
I bricked my Magic last month trying to flash an engineering SPL onto it. It's stuck at the Vodafone screen and won't go into bootloader nor recovery. I've tried the trick detailed in the How I Un-Bricked My Bricked Phone thread with no luck and I've tried it for weeks.
I'm going to try to JTAG based on this guide but I need the hardware. Just wondering if anyone local(ish) has the hardware before I spend $90 or so.
Even better would be someone who could do it for me!
Anyway, just giving it a shot. Hopefully there's someone out there...
