Hi guys:
Really strange thing. When trying to flash phone (activesync connected) the phone went to blank screen and RUU lost conection. After that there is no way to enter bootloader, but everything else is working ok.
Device has USPL installed, and been flashed many times.
Is there any way to repair bootloader?
Thanks.
Note: Actual ROM is official HTC WM6, with ext ROM modified to 2 Mb capacity.
how are you entering the boot loader
To enter the boot loader you have to either keep the voice record button held while doing a soft reset or keep the same button pressed while the device is starting
Yes, I Know

Thank you for your apreciation, but I have already done it.
I've been browsing this useful forum in order to learn a bit more about my artemis
hmmpp
RUU hehehe..
Take the SD card out then perform the procedures to get into the Boot Loader, it will work, otherwise you'll see white screen for 2-3 mins then the phone will say "Searching for SD Card..." then it will eventually get into the bootloader, if this solves your problem then please try the search feature next time because this has been discussed many times before...
digitalextremes:
Please go..... with "search button" text.
Everytime i see such text i wonder if U ever tried it!
nevertheless.
My Arte has the same problem, OS is launching properly, everything seems ok.
I want to flash a new ROM (Shady's last PLK) but i can't get into bootloader.
Thank U in advance for post with Voice-dial+Power+reset (stylus) or mentioning sim or SD, i tried all combinations.
If U have nothing to say, stay silent.
Everyone who can help, feel free, to do so.
THX I A
I had the same problem... to fix-it, just remove the SD Card...
Hey all,
Just a little background information:
- Hard SPL'd my phone to flash Dutty's cooked ROM.
- All of a sudden one day, the phone switched off. I tried to boot it up but it will freeze on the HTC loading screen where it displays the radio version, ROM version in red down the bottom - the phone would not go any further.
- My computer won't even recognise it when I plug in my USB.
Anyway, I figured I'd try to uninstall HSPL and start over again. I downloaded an official HTC ROM, tried to load into the bootloader and now I'm stuck.
The screen reads:
Upgrade ROM code error
Please try again
If I pull out the battery/SD card, it will load into this screen again.
What *I THINK* may be the issue is that I didn't use the original ROM SPECIFIC to my phone, i.e. WWE Asian ROM.
I've updated the ROM image on my SD card but I can't get into the original bootloader to start the uninstallation process again.
Help!
Ok, nice and calm, are you sure you can't get into bootloader mode?
Power off, sim and sd card out (just to be sure)
hold volume down, tap power, continue to hold volume down.

I can get into the bootloader just fine.
It will display the error message and I can't do anything.
OK, so if you can get to the 3 coloured screen, you can just flash HSPL (if it isn't still installed) and flash a new rom.
Boot to bootloader(3 coloured screen), connect to computer, run HSPL.exe

My computer refuses to connect to the phone.
I'll plug in my USB cable, windows will make the connection sound but the phone won't load into Windows Explorer.
What does it say by the spl? 1.42.0000? or 1.42.HSPL?
Actually it doesnt matter, when you hear the connection sound, thats enough, Run HSPL.exe, and if its not already installed, it should install, if it is already installed it will say 'hspl requires 1.42.000' or something.
Either way, you can then go ahead and flash a new rom.

No, it doesn't work.
When I run HSPL.exe, it says it can't find my phone.
I already have HSPL installed with a custom ROM.
The phone is stuffed whereby I couldn't get past the HTC logo screen - it just freezes there.
I tried uninstalling HSPL thinking this would solve my problem with no luck.
The phone boots into the bootloader with an error message that I can't seem to get around.
Ah ok, so you get the error message on the 3 coloured screen? If that is the case, then spl itself is corrupt.
I thought you got the error message when the phone tried to boot, my mistake.
Next to try then is to find the original rom that came on your phone, and flash it from sd card, and hopefully it will overwrite the spl. It must be the correct rom for your provider and region, though.
If that doesn't work, then i'm afraid all I can do is wish you best of luck.

I think this is where I went wrong.
I tried uninstalling HSPL with a ROM that wasn't from my region which is why I'm getting these errors.
Surely there's a way around this?
If you can find your original rom, there is a good chance you will be fine, OR you can probably try the goldcard route, however i'm not 100% so i wouldnt go handing over cash (goldcard isn't free) until you are sure.
Do you know what rom you are looking for?

I'm sure my phone's original rom was the WWE Asian version from Hong Kong.
I've uploaded the ROM onto my SD card but I can't get the bootloader to load it.
As stated before, I used another ROM at first and then it crashed on me.
Everytime I start the bootloader, it won't let me load the Asian ROM from scratch.
It just displays the error with no way around it.
Hmm, ok, just a couple of last thoughts then i gotta go to bed.
1 - sd card formatted fat32
2 - some people have better luck with 2gb cards than with bigger ones.
3 - Was the phone bought direct unlocked from HTC or is there a chance its provider locked? (i.e are you REALLY SURE you have the right rom)
4 - RUU_Signed.nbh coppied to sd card and renamed leoimg.nbh
Gotta go, best of luck.
ok. u are getting error in bootloader? what exacly is the error message you are getting..
Hard Reset
I had a similar problem to this and a hard reset solved the problem. Did you try a hard reset? I think its press volume up and volume down and power simultaneously.

Even that won't work!
Confirmed hard reset but pressing "Volume Up", then the screen blacks out immediately and nothing happens.
When I press the "power on" button, all I see is an exclamation mark for a second then a black screen.
I think the solution is for you to try flashing to HSPL again.
1. Boot to bootloader mode by pressing Vol down key and click the Power button. You should get the tri colour screen, and the word "Serial" on the bottom.
2. Plug in the USB cable to your PC. The word "Serial" should then change to "USB".
3. Run hspl.exe as administrator.
I did the same as you previously when I tried to load the SEA 1.66 ROM on my Hong Kong English phone, and recovered it by using the above steps. I had to run HSPL 3 times before it worked. The first 2 times, it would seem to work as I'd get the "We Hacked it!" message, but when I rebooted the phone to the bootloader, it still wasn't HSPL. Only on the 3rd try, did it successfully load HSPL to the bootloader.
-edit-
You can download the original Hong Kong CSL ROM from a link in this thread.
got to say, if in doubt - goldcard it!!!
what is your spl version now? 1.42.0000 or 1.42.hspl '?
only bootloader is never a problem with hspl installed.
only bootloader is no problem with original spl version as long as you have a compatible stock rom.
\I wonder whether the phone would connect to computer properly.
After plenty of reading around, I've finally fixed the issue!
It was the easiest of all fixes - all I had to do was to download the original factory ROM the phone came with (.exe file) and run the executable with the phone plugged in via USB.
Thanks to all those who have tried to help.
Sorry for the long description but I think it is better to explain the whole story:
A few days ago I decided to HSPL my HD2 and installed Miri rom. All is working well until today when I need to hard reset the phone. Pressing the two volume keys just did not hard reset it, it just go straight to boot up as normal. The only way to hard reset is to use the Clear Storage.
I thought something has gone wrong so decided to go back to stock rom. So I put the stock Telstra Rom onto the SD card and renaming it to "leoimg.nbh". Then press down volume key and power. It started to show "Loading" but then went back to the boot loader screen. I tried many times and it didn't work. Eventually it worked and succesfully restored to stock rom with SPL 1.42.0000.
I tried the hard reset using volume keys and it is still not working. I then tried to use active sync to install the original stock rom from computer but that failed. (I noticed it did not recognize the version installed on the phone).
I then tried HardSPL again and although it says successful, the boot loader version keeps saying 1.42.0000.
Now I am stuck with the stock rom and cannot flash anything onto it, including stock rom. I suspect this is a hardware problem? Anyone has any suggestion.
I think you messed up with the SD card. I'll say it loud: DON'T EVER AGAIN FLASH FROM THE SD CARD. Now, you may try the HSPL 2, according to the base of your stock rom. For further information, go there. And don't forget: don't ever again... you already know.
Problem is HSPL2 does not work with Telstra phone...
Ok. It was my error. I tried to flash the HD rom instead of the HD2 rom!
Luckily nothing is broken! I now successfully restored to stock rom with SPL1.42 and is able to install HSPL. I can now start flashing Yeepee!!
However, There is still the problem with the hard reset where I can't do it with the volume keys????

Well.. If the device is up and running there is an "Wipe device" Option under "settings" --> "All settings". It is pretty much the same
I knew there is a "Clear Storage" option but I am just concern that it is a hardware problem. I have tried both stock and custom ROMS, with and without HSPL and it is still not working??

i find it is dificult to press both vol up and down with the back cover on. Try it with cover off, there is more give in the buttons. Plus be sure and press the right spot, you can sort of feel the button going down. Do them individually, dont just put both fingers on and press (well, till you get better at it )

Thats your bootloader.....
to do a hard reset its...
hold down volume up and volume down
tap and release power
keep holding both volume buttons down....
I think whats happening is that your only holding the volume down.
Try taking your battery cover off to get a better press and making sure that up and down are held, then tap the power button.........
hope that helps.....

try uninstalling actvesync from your pc...... then reinstalling it
would you be able to try and flash on someone elses pc?
im not sure if this would help or not but im running out of ideas im afraid....
My friend, if the phone starts at all you definitely should be able to do HARD RESET.
You are probably not doing well the hard reset. You cannot destroy bootloader with backup programs.
You should :
-hold pressed volume up and volume down buttons
-tap and release power button
-keep holding both volume buttons down for several more seconds until three color screen appears and shortly after that a message will appear on lite blue screen. Then release both volume buttons. Then press volume up button, usually it is necessary to press it once again. System restoring bar will begin to raise up to 100%. After that pres again volume up and system will restart.
By the way your initial rom is 1.66 but on the pictures is 1.48. So you did pictures after you flashed it. Also noted that you have flashed HSPL.
Suggest to download your initial original rom and install it from the memory card. Not sure but may be downgrade of the rom is not possible from 1.66 to 1.44.
I solved my problem
Thanks to masters very much I reinstall active sync and then I flash rom and all my problems cancelled out )
nice one, glad you got it fixed.....

To all of you having the "same problem"
If you are 100% sure your stock rom is correct. rename the .nbh file to LEOIMG.NBH, put it on the root of your SD card, and boot into bootloader, it will flash.
IF YOU ARE UNSURE IF YOUR STOCK IS CORRECT POST HERE FIRST OR YOU MAY BRICK YOUR PHONE,
better to look noob than to brick, there are too many versions of this phone to mess around here.

yes i flashed via sd card its a nand rom TBD_Sensation_XL_Gen3_stock_V3.7
I was trying to install blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1 on my blackstone. I installed olinex and after that stored the nbh and exe file on the sd card and then through task 29 flashed it. The rom got successfully installed but now the phone is stuck at the bootup. It says
Checking Radio...
Checking protocol..
Checking Rom..
But now won't get to the next screen.Because of this i can't get to active sync. Please help..Pleaaaasseee
Did u follow the instructions completely, cause it worked fine for me and others... Do you have radio 1.14 or above installed? Did u try to reflash?
ok, no need to worry. Boot into bootloader. What is your SPL?
Yes i did follow the instructions. Now the phone won't bootup. I tried it with the volume down and power up method. Rom does get installed but then again it won't bootup..
Did you try Vol UP + Vol Down + Power ?
Yes i did try that after my phone got screwed up with test29 method but it shows nothing at all after successfully installing rom..:-s
no need to worry
always read read read and must read before flashing. I think your phone is quite ok. You does task29 to it. what is task 29 means. it means task29 will clean our device completely only splash screen displyaed, phone always stucked on this screen. it is very normal, it means you completyely cleaned your device. now you are ready to flash your device. do the following procedure--
1. remove the battery and reinsert it.
2. now turn on the phone while pushing volume down key.
then bootloader (tricolor screen) mode will be displayed. many times it will not come into bootloader and device normally starts and stuck on splash screen. the reason is simple, you didnt press volume down key properly, it happend many times to me also.
Now remove battery cover, remove battery and reinsert it, dont cover the battery, now take slylus & press volume down strip with the stylus. ( volume up & down keys are installed in battery cover, so when you push volume down key in flap open condition, it should be done by stylus.)
ok
push volume down by stylus & hold it and start the device, it will come in tricolor screen means bootloader mode, on the bottom screen it will show serial.
Now conect the device to the pc & bottom line on the screen will become serial to USB.
Now perform task28= means flash normal rom, do not perform task 29 again.
task29 will take 1 minute to flash while normal RUU will take about 7-8 minute.

Have you flashsed a differnet radio ?
What you did is just Task29 your phone. Task29 needs something to flash in order to do its thing. Usually we flash radios (good ones obviously) because they are smaller than full roms. If you flash a full rom with Flash29, it will get erased after completion.
What you need to do now (since your phone now has no ROM installed) is boot it while pressing volume down to get to the bootloader, plug via USB and flash a rom using a "non-task29" flasher, like the standard BlackStoneCustomRUU.exe file that comes with basically every rom.
Hello thanks for replying my internet wasn't working but i did manage to boot my phone but now the touch stops working after. I know this as i press the volume button and the phone responds to that hence telling me it's not really freezed up. This is all what i did.
Stored .nbh file in the task 29 folder this is the rom version whose nbh file is used (RUU_Duttys_HD_V3.9__XT_Turbo_5.2.21051.1.6.4_1.59.709.0_Radio_52.62.25.34_1.14.25.24_)
After the flashing is done i reset the phone by taking out battery and starting it again in bootloader.
Now i flashed again with (blackSTONEhengeHyPerSlim_4_1)
After installing it completely the touch stops responding.
Kindly help me with what seems to be the problem. Thanks

Yes that one is fine. Once T29 is complete take out battery and then re-insert it. Now put phone into bootloader (hold vol down and press power on while still holding vol down. BOOTLOADER IS A TRI-COLOUR SCREEN).
Now flash your rom
i also flashed blackstonhenge hyperslim 4.6 and now touchscreen stopped working....any solution...
