Hi Guys,
My elf(in) switched off by itself while flashing from memory card.. it will say 'Formatting bnfds(something i dont remember)' at that time i guess battery power went down for some reason i dont know,(i am sure the battery was atleast 70% while flashing) and the device switched off while it was formatting that partition and i guess SPL is totally screwed ... it wont even turn ON!!.. no lights nothing.. tried virtually everything... there are many methods but most of em only work if you can get the device to bootlaoder.. mine wont even power ON... so any ideas??... i fount that JTAG pins can help.. but for that you need pin layout and stuffs.. is there any other way..or is some1 who is familiar with JTAG can help me out??..
hey buddy ...u screwed Ur MOBeee.. well basic method try charging the battery somehow and then use port sniffers and then u may able to revive it .. as i did way back ..its little bit tricky ..i will suggest check forum somewhere this port method is there..
sorry about ur dead elf.
When you recovered last time.. did your device switch on or atleast did that orange light while charging came??... if for you also the lights did not come i might try the port sniffers..
I'm interested on that too.

I attemted to flash my Kjam to WM6 & it went dead. It wont start at all. Kjam Service centre says there is a problem in the mother board and it needs to be replaced for $ 300+........now if flash fails...the ROM must have gone corrupt , what has it to do with the motherboard ?
can anyone throw light on whats the real thing ?
Deven.
take out the battery for hours then re-install it. try to boot in bootloader mode first(3 colors). If it work, it's the time to re-flash the right rom now!
When you start the device up what happens?
Same Problem accured for me!!!!!!!
I installeda new rom and my device didn't power on after that.
What should i do now?

Nobody here is providing any details so everything is going to be just a guess. If either of these phones were a G4 and you flashed a rom that tried to update the IPL/SPL then its very likely you have bricked your device. But again, with no information about what rom you were trying to flash, what your IPL/SPL were beforehand, or details about what it means that it won't turn on, everything is just a guess...
Bricked Kjam
its comletely dead.....i had disconnected the battery for a couple of days then connected it but it wont start....i checked the battery using multimeter it is fully charged....neither does it power ON when connected to mains...It doesnt get detected when connected to the USB port..thats obvious since it is not powering up...so cant flash it again.. now m in a fix as to whether to spend another fortune after this sweetheart or keep it in a showcase ....

( a bricked KJam )
If nothing lights up that looks pretty terminal. :-(
Maybe you could buy a broken Wizard with a working motherboard? Alternatively maybe sell off your mostly working Wizard on this forum to raise money to buy a new device?
Sorry if you can't get it going. :-(
i cant get my wizard to go to bootloader ? is there a way to force it ?
thnx

hi,
thnx for the help.. i did follow the steps mentioned.. but it styll doesnt wrk. whn i try to flash the rom.. it supposedly looses connection wid the computer .. the screen looses the light buh the wizard is on all the way.. u cant use it though.. buh the lights are still blinkin.. (the wifi and phone)
thnx
hey, my mda doesnt even turn on anymore, do u guys think its the battery but the battery was fine when i flashed it but then it doesnt boot to the window, so i took the battery out and put it back in and it doesnt turn on anymore.. i tried the camera, rest button and other stuffs. do u think my phone is bricked? or i should def. get a new battery and try it out?
I suggest you back to your Official rom first then start over again. I do this many times. Activesync always loose its connection before start flashing. It's a normal procedure. When you mention that your Wizard is still up and on the way, what you mean exatcly? Be more specific bringing point details on where you are stuck for instance. Then I'll try to help you out.
Good luck.

Sounds a power problem to me. I've been into this couple of times after being in a bootloader mode for a long time. Plug the Wizard directly into the powerwall to start charging then back to your flashing process first doing with an official rom. I don't think you have bricked it.

sry, i forgot to mention that it doesnt even charge too, both powerwall or pc
Try to enter in a bootloader mode by hold on the camera button while pressing the reset button. You'll go to bootloader. If not, remove battery one more time, wait seconds and put it in back. Then, force bootloader again and try to charge through powerwall. You should get an orange light or similar during recharging. Check your model. Hope it helps you this time.

which version is it ,G3 or G4,and which Rom were trying to upgrade with.
Well,if its a G3 then,there's some power problem,but if it's a G4 and you tried to flash a Rom with IPL/SPL included,well its a brick.
Yeah...unfortunately zabardast_1 is right about your device. If it is a G4 and you flashed a G3 ROM, you could have bricked your techtoy! Hope you knew what you was doing at that time!
Try to always provide enought information regarding your environment and device so we can help you out better!
All started with trying to upgrade(rewrite) the GSM part because the Hermes had problems with phone part - when trying to call - the phone stop responding, bus the pda part sill worked.
So - I tried and tried and tried again, reading many threads about HARD SPL,Flashing radio, etc. Nothing worked..
In the end "i managed" to kill GSM - phone had "No Gsm" on boot-up.
From there i tried to downgrade SPL to 1.04 so that i try to "raw" rewrite the GSM part.
But something went terribly wrong, and while downgrading SPL, the phone suddently shutdown and never opened again.
Now i have the folowing situation: NO BOOTLOADER, no usb conectivity, nothing
This means that i cannot connect via USB whatever i try.
Is there any hope for me? or is it TOTALLY BRICKED?
Any help is apreciated!! I can even dismantle the mobile if there is any way to flash it via some kind of jtag connection...anything ...
The folks at www.imei-check.com can do the JTAG flashing. Just email them. It would be costly for you to do it yourself...
Are you saying that the phone won't turn on at all or that it does but you can't get a bootloader screen?
Have you tried taking the battery out for a while? Have you tried flashing an OEM rom and radio compatible with your device off an SD card?
All of this info is in the wiki, as are OEM roms you can flash.
Let us know how you get on.
Good luck.

Try this:
1.) Remove battery
2.) Connect Hermes to charger or USB
3.) Insert the battery while Hermes is connected to charger
4.) Red light should turn Amber
5.) Soft Reset
@wacky.banana: The phone is totaly dead: no bootloader, doesn't boot at all, doesn't seem to have any USB conectivity at all. Flashing from micro sd doesn't work : probably because the bootloader isn't working.
@drummer10630: i'll check with imei-chek about jtag flashing, especially the price and shiping costs.thanks
@markafreeman: I tried, but when i put the battery in, the red light goes off, not to amber . no soft or hard reset helps. not even leaving the battery out for 2 weeks - i had tried that too . thanks anyway.
Anything else I can try? - phone totaly dead, no bootloder, no usb conectivity - cannot use mtty, cannot flash from microsd
I had to get a replacement device at that point when it happened to me.
Maybe someone else know a way to get it working.
Good luck.
get onto orange
tell them you dropped the phone
and it crashed and wouldnt turn on
so you managed to hard reset it
and it crashed an ****ed up
they'll replace it
well they will send it to HTC
who just replace the handset rather than repair it
Hi dancameo2k , maybe you will not remember but plz:
I ve bought recenty an spv m3100, im effortless trying to flash the rom to an wm6 version.

i was using MAGLDR then i had troubles so i tried to use another boot loader for my t-mobile Hd2 which is " cLk " then i didnt understand anything and removed the phone from the usb and it powered off i tried to open it again to remove the bootloader clK and add MAGLDR again but it wont open not even screen light
so is it bricked or is it a battery problem ?
no lights no power clue .
Will it boot into your bootloader? If so, you can flash magldr again.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
no booting it is like there is no battery inside the phone , when you press the power button nothing happens like it is dead .

Congratulations, you probably have just bricked your phone.
Im sorry, but pulling the cable while flashing is the most stupid move someone would ever do. If you don't understand something, then just read again and again until you fully understand before doing something reckless.
You MAY get lucky and have your phone revived, but I doubt it.
Sorry, truth sometimes hurt.
i didnt remove the cable while flashing ... i removed it when i was in clk , clk was stuck or something so i removed the cable after a while after this it wont open like it has no battery , NO BOOT LOADER NO BOOT NO LIGHT .
Check the battery pins & make sure they make contact with the battery !
and you might want to charge your battery with a wall charger (the one where u can charge battery without phone - if u have this) or borrow ur friends clk installed hd2 and charge ur battery...
it can be a 0 battery charge problem also.

I tried everything buy nothing
It sounds like your device had sudden hardware failed. You will probably have to either replace the mainboard or JTAG the device. My money would be on replacing the mainboard as it did boot after you flashed Windows Mobile 6.5 so it being software bricked were you can use JTAG to fix is unlikely.
