Hi
While I was upgrading my ROM the PC was turned off, and the upgrade was interrupted.
Now my HTC HD2 have died in its 1st day No matter how many times I press the power button it doesn't turn on!
Tried soft and hard reset but didn't worked, also the battery is almost full.
I called HTC workshop and they told me if the interruption was between 17% - 50% then it can be fixed easily (low cost)
BUT if it was interrupted after 50% progress, then the motherboard need to be changed and that will cost alot!!
Is that true...
PLEASE HELP
more specific info please,
can you boot into bootloader?
when you say "No matter how many times I press the power button it doesn't turn on!" do you REALLY mean it wont turn on, or do you mean it stops on a grey screen?
what version phone?
did you use hspl first?
Hi samsamuel
No I cannot even boot into bootloader.
and yes I REALLY mean it wont turn on. (It has died man) ...
It is a T-Mobile USA Version with ROM 2.01 and I was upgrading to ROM 1.66 and I wasn't able to upgrade to that version until I used HSPL successfully.
How much does it cost to replace the motherboard and from where I can buy it??

Send it to warranty if it can't be turned on.
Maybe they'll replace it. What do you have to loose?
if it is tmobile, and less than a year, jsut tell them it stopped working. don't tell them you upgrade to rom bla bla bla

Unlucky, it's dead, you bricked it by flashing an incorrect radio.
i'm interested in your train of thought where going from 2.01 to 1.66 is an upgrade?
no clue how you would go about swapping out a mo board. Id try get it swapped under warranty.

The reason I did that was to enable Arabic and the only way I think could do that is to "downgrade it to that ROM.

ah i see. well unfortunately the tmous will not run any rom version lower than 2, but what killed your phone is the radio that is included with the 1.66.
so far a few dozen people have donethis, no fix available.
It will indeed be the incompatible radio that bricked it. Live and learn. There's no fix.
If you've just got the phone there's no reason why you can't just contact T-Mobile and get a replacement unless they call you up on it. Did you HSPL before hand?

hi i was trying to flash my friends htc 8125 with the tutorial on this web and now i just have 3 color display or boot mode i think. im new this was my first time i flashet first with buton ... flash but not work error 302 but after i flash with alternative flash was in the tutorial and i get an error to so i dont know what to do how to repair
HTC CINGULAR 8125
IPL 1.05
SPL 1.05
I'm kinda of new too, but I believe you just have to pick the rom u want to flash up to. U r at the ideal ipl & spl. I just did that to mine about a week ago and then flashed it EXACTLY like forum said and then just update to 3.XXIPL & 3.XXSPl. After which I picked 1 of the TNT rOMs and wella! try to flash it up now
i dont know wheres to find the roms do you have a link or something
Have you CID unlocked yet?
Obviously not unlocked yet!
Cause he stucks on step 1 !
hahahaha upgrade an original rom... try the 2.26 tmobile not 3.08 please...
Hey Que
I will be getting T-Mobile any hour today...
I will be following all the instructions and try to use a Cingular card on it.
I'm trying to decide what to use for updating the rom on this 8125 the ipl reads 2.25 the spl reads 2.25. in the tutorial there isnt any mention of these that I can ascertain. the other numbers are os 2.25.11.1 gsm 02.25.11
Is this even a necessity. The unit shuts down and is very difficult to get restarted, seems to be a good unit, just looking to make it more reliable. Thanks in advance for the help.

Your phone is running the official cingular stock rom and has official IPL/SPL 2.25 (Bootloaders),its nothing to be worried about,now it depends if you prefer to reflash the official wm5 rom or wud like to upgrade to latest wm6.1 custom build roms.
If you want to keep official then download the official wm5 stock rom and simply flash it,but if you desire to upgrade to latest wm6.1 rom,as no official wm6 roms are provided,therefore,you'll have to flash a custom build wm6.1 rom,and for that you'll have to get your phone CID unlocked.
my phone is in boot mode i dont have the roms im new wheres can i find the rom that you say the tmobile my phone was with the original cingular rom or where can i find the original one
mmmmm ok!
I dont have the link but you an enter in wiki section for wizard... is a thread that said wizard goes wiki click there and then it tooks you to the wiki pages! there... you can found a link that takes you to the original roms... choose the one you see for cingular..... some links are broken so dont desperate maybe we can found other one... if you dont get it there you can choose the search tool just follow my steps on my signature says The XDA search culture...
Dont be afraid men you only need to use some more things to start unbricking your phone... (I hope so) many things tooks time cause we dont read enough now lets work men!!!
Well avoiding duplicatted posts this is gonna change many times
Here is my RUU without ID http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429327&page=9
I didnt found the cingular but try to unzip the exe file with winrar... the nk.nbf can be cutted and pasted in the RUU folder to upgrade it without ID vendor permissions... we will on touch men!
Xplain more
Xplain more of your problem remember that unlock upgrade flashing dids most be done on XP and without SIM and MiniSD pluged... be sure your batt is full charged and your USB cable dont have troubles.
Can you privide more info abour exactly what you have done... please men we need all you got
OH remember not to use so much your phone on Bootloader screen cause we need the batt almost 70% to downgrade unlock and upgrade again it dont charge in RGB screen.
About getting official Wizard Cingular ROMs.
I called HTC and Cingular they say that HTC is not licensing the Wizard WM6 from Microsoft anymore, so they are not supplying the ROMs for the public.
No official support from Cingular/HTC on Wizard for WM6 or 5 for that matter.
I'm new to pdas I've only ever had cell phones so with that in mind its confusing as to where to start. I'm electronic savvy when it comes to car repair, however some of this is daunting at best. I'd like to take this semi-bricked wizard to the next level.
Everytime I find what I'm looking for the webpage is obsolete, what to do?

First,always post the DOC Chip version of the phone,what is the IPL/SPL of the phone.
Secondly,what exactly is the problem and what you want to do ?
the ipl/spl are at 2.25 and the specific problem is that wen in hibernate mode the only way to work with it is to remove the battery to restore functionality, then that resets the factory settings of time and date and also drops calls etc.

Its a G3 version,download the official stock wm5 rom from here and flash it:-
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1.exe
But,if you want to upgrade to latest wm6 then follow this link and do it correctly as the guide reads :-
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies
Good luck
Well I think its bricked no screen and no charge light, should I buy a new battery or just sell it for parts? I really tried to find the correct place to update and I goofed what can I say its my responsibility, is thereanymore I can do from this point?

G3 devices don't get Bricked like this,by just flashing a rom,untill and unless you have flashed any G4 IPL/SPL on it,otherwise,G3 phones never get Bricked.So most probably its the battery,try to get the battery charged or get another battery from a friend and confirm it.
As an update and thank you very much. I purchased a new battery and the the store was good enough to pre charge it. We installed the above official wm5 file and its currently going throuh re updating itself. I did happen to notice that it now has an AKU2 file. Is this an update over and above what I had originally?
Once again thanks....
Are there any problems with 3G sim cards because when I installed the card the phone reacts as if there is no battery. No charge indicator or any activity.
Problem solved, it helps to have the sim card properly seated.......
Thanz!
You are most welcome,glade its working.
Yes,the above rom is AKU 2,its an upgrade to your previous official Rom,always try to keep the battery fully charged,as it creates many problems if it gets below the required retention charge of 30%.
Try out the Guide I posted above and see if you can get it CID unlocked and upgraded to latest wm6.1 rom,thats where the fun begins....!

You could always put your phone into bootloader and flash a radio
How can i do that
how can i know wich radio do i need
You flash a radio the same way you would flash a rom. First of all you need USPL or HSPL on your device. I recommend you read these threads for guidance:
Dummies guide for flashing using USPL or HSPL
1.14.25.24 & Rilphone.dll radio thread
Blackstone Radio Flashing (wiki)
Available Blackstone Radios
I would start with radio 1.14.25.24 as this is latest blackstone radio
It doesnt work yet
please i need you to recommend me a rom to use
can i use the officil one from htc website?
and what else i can try to make my phone work again1

You have a vast choice of roms to use, either stock roms direct from HTC site or from the wiki here or cooked roms from this forum
Would be impossible for me to recommend one as everyone is different and your tastes may well be different from mine. Also you have different windows versions, i.e. wm6.1 & wm6.5. All I can say is try a few and make your own conclusions. At present I am currently using Throys WM6.5 R9 rom
I changed the rom and the radio still dont get signal
NO SERVICE!

You may find that the phone is stolen and phone networks have blocked the IMEI Number this maybe why you donot have any reception
Try asking your Network phone company if this phone is blocked
I Already call and no its not blocked by imei

hi
i've need some help urgently on this as the phone is being picked up in the morning and its currently going really bad
i had dutties 3.9 rom on, but i found a 1.19 orange rom in the wiki, so installed this.
however the display is very bad, and is only showing 16 colours so looks rubbish
I belive this is to do with the SPL
This is what i did:
1. put phone in bootloader mode (was displaying SPL 1.56)
2. ran blac_uspl.exe in USB mode which changed the SPL to 1.15 (USPL)
3. installed the rom
did i do something wrong?
any help VERY appreciated

After flashing the stock rom located on the wiki page.
Link to the download is http://rapidshare.com/files/345363601/RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1664052_Radio_.exe
The phone will just not turn on now, when I plug it into my computer it recognizes hardware but the screen doesn't turn on at all, any ideas what can be causing this or a way to fix this?
Thank you for your help.
I'm pretty sure you've just turned your device into a shiny, $500 paper-weight.
If the radio you flashed was included... and anything other than what is compatible with the T-MOBILE USA model... then you're ****ed.
For instance, I'm almost certain that the radio value ending in .52 cannot be flashed successfully without bricking the device. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm sorry though, this is rather unfortunate.

Correct, the rom is 1.66 for a start, which wont work on tmous. It doesnt say what radio is included, but i can tell you no 1.66 wwe roms include tmous compatible radios.

You actually mean radios with a 51 in them (example 2.09.51.x) kill tmous, not 52.
Radios with a 50 in them and higher than 2.06 will work with tmous. (example 2.08.50.x)
Unlucky. Take it back, play ignorant, get it replaced.
Hi All,
i installed HSPL2 2.8.0000 i think and i installed Kumar ROM. after a week i installed non tmobile ROM and my phone is dead. it does not show the phone is charging and it does not turn on at all. i try Volume + Power and nothing happens. if i get a replacement phone from tmobile, do you guys think they can find out what went with this phone ? can they hold me any legal terms ? what worst can happen if they find out ?
thanks
I work for tmo customer care and the worst case scenario is that you'll be charged a $100 out of warranty fee as the issue was caused by human error not the manufacturer. As far as I am aware there are no legal ramifications. Just call and say your phone won't turn on and you don't know why. They will run you through all the troubleshooting, just make them understand the issue is NOT with your battery or charger as they may want to replace those first if they believe its a power issue.
quite a lot of people have returned tmous in that condition, after flashing a .51. radio, and no one has said anything about any comebacks. The only people that have been charged are those who sent it back where you CAN get into bootloader, and they left hspl visible.
In your case they wont be able to get into bootloader, so you should be fine.
thank you all.
you guys are the best...

Hi there all,
Just want to confirm one thing as I have read over 100 posts and did not find a clear answer.
So I bricked my TMOUS HTC HD2 and I Have tried all ways to get into bootloader, but no luck (v. down + power) like a million times and every time I hook the phone to the PC i get the Qualcomm Diagnostics interface 3197 com port.
These where the steps I did before it got bricked:
1- Flashed using HSPL3 to 2.08.HSPL from SPL 2.08.0000
2- To change language I Installed the following ROM (_HTC HD2_RUU_Leo_HTC_ARA_1.66.415.4_Radio_Signed_15.30. 50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship)
3- Got a message that phone was successfully flashed with the new ROM.
4- Phone got shutdown and bricked/dead
These are my phone details before I did any of the above as I saved them before I did anything in case of any damage and forgot to investigate radio issues hehehehehe:
Rom Version: 2.10.531.1 (82076) WWE
Rom Date:02/22/10
Manila Version:2.5.20121412.1
OS Version:5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
Radio Version:2.08.50.08_2
After all the posts I read, I understand that my mistake was that I flashed My tmous HD2 with a .51 radio and that's the cause for the phone to brick.
My question is:
is it possible in any way for me or a tmous service center to enter into bootloader mood using any means. if no than I'm verrrrry happy cuz they will never be able to see the HSPL I flashed.
I would appreciate your confirmation. I know you mentioned it above that they can't, but just wanted to confirm before i send it to them.
Thanks to all the help we get from everyone here. Keep up the good work
***we live and learn***
Yes. Your situation is exactly the same as the OPs. Youre ok. Send it in. Get a new one.
help!!!!!
