Is it bricked? - Palm Treo Pro

Can anyone help me?
I was flashing back to stock SPL, using sd card, and pulled the sd card out while it was flashing (don't ask, I seemed to forget for a moment what I was doing and realized I needed my card for my other phone) Now, I have the stock SPL, shows PANT200 SPL-0.36.0000 CPLD-2 when phone starts, and says "Upgrade ROM code error Please Try Again". But, if I put my sd card in it with PANTIMG.nbh SPL file, then I get a screen that says "Loading...". And that's it, left it like that forever it seems and no change.
Any idea? It won't connect to the computer so I can't flash from computer. Even QPST won't find it.
FWIW: I do kinda know what I am doing. Unlocked mine and wife's Treo Pros with Cmonex hard spl, and flashed several ROMs, including a couple I cooked with NightRaven's kitchen. I was just going back to stock cause my wife doesn't like changes, and now this happened.
TIA,
Malachi

OK, thanks to cmonex I got this working again. Had to connect to mtty and run: set 16 0.
Did that and soft reset, and Voila! my Pro works again..
Thanks Cmonex!!!!

Out of curiosity:
I need to revert to the original stock spl as well. Have not found a way yet...Could you offer me some guidance.
Thanks.

tri color screen

Help I cannot get my 8525 off the tri colored screen. I have been searching thru these forums but have not found the right combination.
It is set up for WM6 and att
did you press the reset button and it still comes back to this tricolor screen?
if resetting doesnt work, hard reset, if that doesnt work then yu may have to reflash os. My suggestion would be using the sd card method as all you need to do is be in bootloader with a fat32 formatted memory card and the .nbh file of your favourite rom installed on it and renamed to "hermimg.nbh". hope this helps...
stuck in bootloader screen
my phone...said no signal...I couldn't even open the phone pad ....then my sim did not show.....I tried soft resets several time.... nothing would help I noticed under device info it would not show radio version or rom version..... so I downloaded a fresh version or att 6.0 wm.. and tried that to see if it would help... while installing it stop @ 11 percent with error code.262 tried several times and nothing still same thing..... is their hope.... can I install a cooked rom... or is my phone dead I hope not but you guys are the best....can anyone please help......
dr71399, sounds as if your radio has had it... try to fix any bad blocks on your phone with MTTY first(do a search in upgrading for instructions) first then try to flash a radio only rom, if that doesnt work you should do a search for others that have had their radios corrupted and see what is suggested. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but most people find once that happens its a brick, not that you cant flash an os only rom to use as a PDA.
If your phone is still under warranty then try to put the original rom back on and return for warranty but thats all I can think to do... See if a chef can fix up an os only rom for at&t or try to do it yourself.

Stuck in bootloader...

I am afraid my Polaris bricked, but I hope somebody knows a solution. Let me explain:
I turned off my device to get my microsd card out. I put the card in my cardreader to fill it with a lot of music. After that I inserted the card in the polaris, turned on the pda, and I got into the bootloader screen .
I tried to soft reset: bootloader screen again, tried to hard reset: bootloader, tried to flash original rom: rom update complete and after that bootloader, tried to flash several cooked roms: rom update complete and again the bootloader. When I try to charge my polaris it automatically turns on and goes to the bootloader. Flashing with microsd doesn't work. I also tried the thing with mtty, but it doesn't show the usb option in the list...
I DID hard-spl, I was using udk diamond R8 and never had any trouble before, while flashing about once a 2 months. I really am desperate, because I am unable to charge the pda now. I searched well and I only found threads of people who forgot to hard-spl before flashing custom roms.
I hope someone comes up with a brilliant idea, I love my Polaris way too much working and I don't want it to be a nice looking pda that doesn't work anymore.
PLEASE HELP!
I now manage to get into the mtty application, but I don't know if it is a good idea to use it. The problems I found here which could be solved with mtty are different from my problem I think. What would be wise to do? I flashed various original roms, and radios. That seems to work as normal, but after flashing I keep returning in the bootloader screen .
I hope one of you has an idea what to do. If it is something that is involving risk, I think I should do it anyway, because in this current state my Polaris is useless.
a few ideas! maybe they can help!
1) do you have warranty? you can restore back to original spl and then get HTC to ix it!
2) Try flashing your phone without the MicroSD card in place, maybe with the stock HTC Rom
Another option - try to delete all files from your memory card.
Thanks for the replies.
1) do you have warranty? you can restore back to original spl and then get HTC to ix it!
I read the thread about restoring back to original spl. There is stated that you can't restore to original spl if you are stuck in bootloader...
2) Try flashing your phone without the MicroSD card in place, maybe with the stock HTC Rom
I tried a lot of times, but every time after flashing has finished, I return to the bootloader
Another option - try to delete all files from your memory card.
I formatted my memory card in fat32, tried to flash with sd-card. When I turn on the phone it shows about 0.5 seconds something like "no rom image" and returns to bootloader screen
My cruise is still stuck, and I really think about trying things in mtty as a last resort... Anybody who knows what commands I should give in mtty in this situation? All help is appreciated, and if a suggestion makes my polaris work again I will donate the brilliant xda-member 20 euro's!
I have the same fault and have not found a solution. Every time I soft reset I am stuck in the boot loader screen. If I switch off the phone using comm manager then soft reset the phone will boot okay.
The only method I have found to be able to boot properly is to leave the battery out overnight and then start the phone in the morning. Always boots without a problem this way.
To make matters worse the USB port on my phone is broken...

[HELP] Bricked TyTN

Hi,
I'm kind of new around here.
My problem is as follows:
- TyTN running PaysRom for about 9 months
- Started to get very sluggish
- Unable to get signal
When i booted my HTC the 'R' and 'G' that appear on screen and used to have values in front of it now display 'none'.
So, I connected it to my PC, 'activesynced' it and tryed to install a new ROM, hoping it would solve the problem.
But the new ROM wasn't installed sucessfully and now all I got is a brick.
I can't even connect it to ActiveSync since it's not recognized.
Is there any solution to my problem?
TIA,
hype
Can you get to the Bootloader?
Yes..
By pressing the Ok+Power+Reset on the bottom button, I see the 'RGB'+white thingie, that I believe is the bootloader..
What SPL do you have? Is it Hard SPL V7(2.10)?
If it is, use the sd card method to install a new ROM.
remember to backup your card 1st.
1. Format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32. Copy .nbh file of the ROM you want onto it and rename to hermimg.nbh .
2. Insert card into Hermes and reset into bootloader.
3. If all things have been done right, follow the prompts....
If the radio ROM has died, I'd suggest trying to flash the Shipped Stock ROM 1st and see if that actually fixes the problem with the blank values on R & G. WM06 upgrade of shipped carrier ROM should also work.
Cheers...
Tks for your response.
I tryed the SD Card method already, with no sucess.
The red stripe shows as follows:
Code:
HERM200
IPL-1.04
HERM200
SPL-2.03
Everytime I tryed on another ROM I always perfomed it using SafeSPL.
Since I don't have 2.1, what can I do?
Tks for all ur help.
What happens when you try and flash a ROM over?
Do you get any kind of error?
You need to find the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. WM06 upgrade should be OK as the CID should match.
Put Hermes into bootloader and connect to PC after unticking "Allow USB Connections" in Activesyncs settings on the PC.
Run the RUU_Wrapper.exe file of the SHIPPED STOCK ROM. ven though activesync won't etect it, the flash file should. Follow the prompts.
Good luck as this seems to be the only way to fix this.
Good Luck...
You might be able to flash a Stock WM5 ROM using the SD Card method. Worked for me when I had SPL 2.03. In fact that's the only ROM it would let me flash over when mine bricked.

(UN)Hard SPL and generic rom. What do you think i should do?

Hey folkes
I dropped my phone yesterday. First the display would'nt show anything but this morning tha display worked fine but the touch does'nt work so i need to send it to the servicepartner that my provider uses.
Should i (un) hard spl and install a generic rom? Is there anything else i should do so they cant se that i used non generic roms?
/A from now on a Nokia N95 user again :-(
Yes, definitely.
Flash a generic ROM back on first, then flash the original SPL back.
I just hope you can do it without the touch facility working.

You can do this from a computer with the RUU so there isn't a problem I guess.
Good luck dude!
If I were you, I try first to make a hard reset in order to see if touch is really dead or not...
Can i put back the stock SPL with the micro SD card? The problen now is that i cant run the RUU becurse i can't configure my device. I am pretty much stuck at "Tap the screen to configure your device" I knew before that i could get stuck here but i was able to flash the stock rom anyway after the hardreset.
But when i try to put the stock SPL back the RUU says "Connection error"
So my onlu option at this point is if this works with the micro SD method.
Any experience anyone?

You can still run RUU, but make sure you flash the stock rom first.
To get RUU to work, start your x1 in boot loader mode (turn it off, then press and hold both power and volume down until the tri colour screen comes up), now connect your phone to your pc with the usb cable and run the RUU.

Serious HD2 00028002 error CAN"T USE PHONE!

Hello fellow HD2 users,
I've got an HD2 T-Mobile UK. I've just tried my luck with HSPL, I've succeessfully installed HSPL using the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
However, when I copied the LEOIMG.nbh (1.48 offiicial rom) file to the micro SD 8GB card; and rebooted, things seemed ok untill it suddenly stopped the progress of flashing the ROM and gave me a Grey screen with the Error 00028002 "not Allow" sort of thing.
So I tried yanking battery out, rebooting normally, it displays a grey triangle with " ! " in the middle and then displays the 00028002 error then back to Tri colour bootloader, I noticed that the HSPL is gone and its back now to 1.42.0000
I even tried a Factory reset, it does the reset I reboot, but it still shows me grey triangle and same routine. I've tried everything now. This bloody T-mobile phone is just useless to me at the moment !
Can you please HELP !!! Thank you so much !
Regards !!
Ok found solution, I just had to install the official T-mobile 1.43.110.0 ROM from this link:
http://rapidshare.com/users/258XUJ
After just switching on the phone with microsd inside, I just plugged the usb and started the RUU and followed the steps and things are back to square one now.
not thrilled that it has been a nightmare so far to get a new rom on.
but at least I can use my phone with its basic functionalities. not gona push my luck again...
You cannot flash official ROMS from the sd because it replaces the SPL with a stock one. Presume it got half way through then decided the ROM was not for your device since it hasd replaced the SPL. Cooked ROMS are ok to flash from SD but for Stock use the RUU.
tell me it's working please.my HD2 from UK T-Mob is same "bricked" and in Slovakia is very very difficult to find somebody who can fix this....i think maybe only the HTC repair center
^
If your phone can load up into the boot loader (tri-color screen) your phone is not bricked.
Deeper Trouble:Same error,but cannot use USB!!!
Guys,
im in even much deeper **** now.I accidentally tried flashing a stock ROM via SD card and now ive gt the same ROM code error.What makes this worse is that my Vista computer is not recognizing any USB connection when i connect my HD2 to the computer.If i need to flash a stock rom via RUU wrapper to get through this stupid ROM code error, i need a USB connection at the first place...which IS NOT WORKING NOW!!!...im sitting duck here guys...i really really need your help on this one.im extremely frustrated and helpless.thanks alot...
When u say USB not working, how do you know?
Put phone in bootloader, connect USB cable,,, on phone does "serial" become "USB"? If yes then just run the flash.
