Hi all,
I have a iMate SP3 here that I'm trying to get working for a coworker. Long story short they did this once before and I re-flashed it with some ROM (no clue which one) to get it working. Well, they broke it again and it's at the bootloader screen.
Problem is, I have no clue what CID lock is on the phone. The SPL is 1.01.0107 and I can't really find any mention of it. The phone doesn't boot any further than the bootloader screen and needs to be flashed, but I'm not sure with what. So far it's rejected all the ROMs I've tried.
Info 2 in MTTY gives me the output below:
HTCSCDL___01 4š«@HTCE
Can anyone tell me what I can flash this phone with to get something booting on it again? Thanks

Hi all, well I'm new to the Polaris but have many devices as you can see in my siggy, but this one is really getting to me. Okay I'm trying to Hard-SPL my Polaris (Orbit 2) and the thing i hav never seen, it asks me to unplug the USB during installation (then plug it back in right away I presume?)... so i do this, and it all goes fine to 100% on the grey screen, and yay!
BUT when I enter into bootloader mode by pressing camera/reset together I only see these numbers in red:
R 1.58.25.14
G 25.69.30.05H
D 1.25.00.00
(did it work?)
Also a stupid question, but how do i know when I am in bootloader mode? is it just booting into the OS normally but showing the red numbers in the left corner on the 'O2' splash page.. is that it? I mean it loads into the OS normally after this, so I don't get why we have to 'enter in bootloader mode' before flashing a ROM.. I mean do we start flashing it while the splash screen is showing, or what until it is fully loaded as usual in the OS?
I know these are really basic questions, but this is unlike any other device I have and cannot find these answers after searching in basic new guys thread.
So, why isn't the Hard SPL working? I have done it twice now, and it says 100% but i cannot see the .olixpro in any of the number strings as it saidi would.
What am i doing wrong here.
Replug your device! = that means quickly unplug and plug back in the USB right? done that!
Arggh, if anyone can help me answer all the above questions, it will help me maybe get to the bottom ofr this thing. In the meantime, more reading!
thanks guys!
UPDATE: OK, now I have the bootloader thing sorted.
But, do I have to manually enter the bootloader screen before running the RomUpdateUtlity.exe of the new ROM I want to flash, or just flash it while its in the normal OS... some instructions are very lacking here.
--
UPDATE: OK, I tried to enter bootloader mode manually then flash the rom (some instructions say to do this) but my PC would not connect with the device, so I just flashed the rom while in the OS like i normally do on my other devices.. and itenters bootloader automatically anyway via the ROM...
So this was more bogus info, stay away from the 'NEW GUYS' thread, it is not well explained.
i understood it right away but as we say.. 100 people, 100 thoughts.
new guy post and update utility say you have to make full working active sync connection of phone with pc and you cant do it unless phone is fully booted.
im glad you got it sorted out
Hi all,
i have a problem with one device here - Orbit II.
It is stuck on booting WM with volume controls on the screen. Usually it's not a big deal and can be solver with HR or by flashing a new rom, but the problem is that i cannot get it to do a HR: white screen with warning appears but when i press send buttong(the green one) - nothing happens, it doesn't react at all.
Ok, i was thinking to flash it, but another problem appeared: i can't enter bootloader(2 softbuttons+reset), same procedure works fine on my own device but this one just reboots and no bootloader...
I'm kinda out of options now.
Any help is appreciated.

press & hold camera button and make soft reset...
Thank you for the answer but i as said in first post, i have tried this, the white screen with the warning appears but pressing Send button does nothing, device does not react to this, so hard reset doesn't happen.
If someone could point to me any other way to enter bootloader - i can work my way from there.
I have also tried MTTY but USB connection doesn't appear in the list(yes, i have killed the activesync processes).
which screen
1st,
2nd, radio protocol version
3rd gif splash
4th wimo load screen
And also what rom have you got on atm.
It is stuck on 4th wimo load screen.
I have no idea about the actual WN version as it's not my device, but i assume it's the original O2 rom since there is still O2 splash screen.

o well then i take its not hard-spl'd in which case i really do not get it, i have got into bootloader at the radio version screen so i dont get this one?? Is it still covered by o2 warrenty, it is 2 yrs long so best bet go to them and see what they say...
Thats if it has no hard-spl... If not take the battery out for a day and see if that brings it back to life, stranger things have happened seen that solve quite a few problems.
Well, device is not mine, a friend asked to look at it. I don't think he got a warranty left.
Well, the thing is, its not a big deal realy, it's not bricked or anything, i just need to get into bootloader, from there i can flash hardspl and the rest from SD... i just haven't seen this thing before... unable to enter the bootloader.
Is there any way to force the device to enter bootloader? I mean other than the standart procedures of Camera+reset?
I think i've seen somewhere a CustomRUU that could do that, even with incomplete WM boot. Like send some commands to the device to enter bootloader.
Does anyone know anything like this?
Recently flashed to NSFfans 6.5 WM rom. I couldn't activate the phone on my account because it wouldn't take the ##...# codes.
Long story short I attempted flashing Bigstorage_SprintTouchRom.exe to try and get back to sprint software where I could use the ## codes.
Everything went smoothly until first boot when it stopped at the "HTC smart mobility" screen. I then hard reset it (send+end+reset button on bottom) and it is still locking up on that screen.
Did I just break my phone?
Thread moved to General.
No, you didn't brick it. It simply sounds like a bad flash.
Try flashing to another rom and see what happens. Which unlocker did you have on? 2.31 or .41?
BTW, if your ## codes don't work is probably because you are using a themed dialer. NFS' rom has a folder under Start Menu that is called "Phone Codes". In there, you will find the PST shortcut, which will allow you to program your phone.
if you can get into the bootloader (tri-color screen) then you haven't bricked it.
Sorry for posting in the wrong forum.
How can I get to the boot loader if the phone stays at the "HTC smart mobility" boot screen?
I tried using the rom update utility but it's not connected so it won't do anything.
---------------------------------------------
Edit: Okay, I have successfully re-flashed back to 6.5. The bootloader can be accessed by turning on the phone while pressing the camera button.
I am using 2.31 unlocker. When I try and activate the phone again what do I need to change in the phone codes to make it work?
Thanks guys.

Under the PST programming, more than likely you will only need to change:
MSID
MIN
HOMESID
username and password (for internet)
You shouldn't need to mess with anything else afaik.

Details, details - how have you flashed? Have you tried flashing from bootloader? Flashing a carrier rom from bootloader should do the trick.

Hello Everyone.
TBH im my opinion you guys are my last hope to fixing my hd2.
So here's the problem.
I have a HD2 that turns on but does not have a functioning touc screen.
ABOUT MY PHONE:
HTS HD2
Has old android in it ( I dont know which one it is, but i can describe it. It starts up with a BootLoader asking to boot android, so i have the option to press yes or no. It has old blue theme in the background.
Here's the problem. I've called HTC support and i learn my phone still has manufacturers warranty. So basically i can just send in the phone, and ill id have to pay is shipping. BUT! here's the problem. HTC does not approve of third party software installed in the phone, in my case it is the ANDROID. So now im trying to wipe android put, and install windows mobile again. I downloaded the t-mobile stock rom and when i plug in my phone, the windows mobile center automatically pops out but it shows an error symbol.
TL;DR
So my question to you guys is how do i remove Android and install Windows Mobile on an HTC HD2 with a non working screen
Thank you so much guys for even considering to help me
Mod if i posted on the wrong section could you please move it for me.
Thanks

I went ahead and downoaded the HSPL3
I turned on my phone and also pressing the voulme down button which brought to me to a red green and white color. I had my phon conneceted to the computer VIA USB. I first double clicked the T-Mobile rom update thingy and went ahead accpeted the warning signs etc,so the first thing that came up was identifying phone, and after 5 seconds it disappears so nothing came fro that, then later i double clicked the HSPL3 which asked me to either pick the 2.8 or the the 2.8 spl i believe, i had the spl installed so i wen ahead clicked the 2.8. it installed and my phone rbooted and BAM my touch screen worked, and when it asked to boot android i pressed NO. my phone rebooted and iagain the boot loader came up and asked to bott android, so this time i pressed BUt it didnt work because the touch screen stopped working!
So i went ahead to try everything all over but this time i clicked the 2.8 spl and after a minute on my phone it displayed " we hacked it" etc etc etc, i robooted my phone, ad it worked, i turned it on and off twice and it worked i was using my phone after a month So after playing with it alittle bit i decided to put my sim card in it. I turned off the phone and put the Sim card and turned on the phone so i can use it but.....once again the touch screen stopped working... ****!!!!!!
yep, now the touchscreen is once again not working

Download a stock WM ROM for your phone, extract and rename your .nbh to leoimg.nbh. Transfer leoimg.nbh. to your SDcard.....enter bootloader mode....there it will flash back to your WM ROM with all HSPL remove. Time to send back to Manufacturer for repair..
Okay hold on. So when you see stock WM ROM coud that be the "T-Mobile_HD2_MR_Software_311...." file? and where can i find my .nbh file?

Make sure you use the Stock ROM specific for your phone, else you will brick your phone.
I went ahead and did that, but nothing changed did i do something wrong?
