Flash Rom Help PLEASE

I have a Dopod 818pro that was flashed with the wrong ROM and now all I get to is the DOPOD splash screen. I can get to the TRI color screen by pushing the camera and power button.
I have tried hard reset but seems the OS is missing from the phone.
I have the original ROM for my phone on my PC but can not use active sync as the phone does not go further than the SPLASH screen.
How can I reload my original ROM using the SD card.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

use the tricolor screen even though active sync doesnt see it it still flashes but u need to use the flash upgrade wizard and not the cli interface one
Worked for me but i cant sae it will work 100%

Where do I find the flash upgrade wizard?
When I plug usb in, i get usb on the white band in the color screen
Tried to run the update using RUU and get ERROR 260
Thanks for your help in this

Yeah RUU same thing i was meaning that one cause theres another that uses cli but its a bit dodgy
RUU Wizard should work it never detected ma G4 but it flashed it anyway i was well chuffed cause i thought i had bricked it
I just tryed the app without the phone connected and it gave me error 260 so maybe try different cable or pc cause i had a issue with xp not detecting my phone and i had to reinstall xp just to get active sync to work properly

The main problem is that I had a bad flash, now I can not get pass bootloader screen, PC does not see device, active sync says not connected. there must be a method for loading the NK.ntf file from sd

Not came across anything like that as the SD card driver would be loaded at boot with the OS and in your case theres no OS booting it would be hard to sae it can be done but i bet someone will prove me wrong lol
Good Luck mate ill keep an eye out for anything like that though

Thanks for the help....phone is useless at the moment......

That bit when you reset and it comes up with "o2" and a load of numbers in the corner

...Yeah, my phone's stuck on that after trying to put in a cooked ROM and now nothing's working when I try and restore it. (I mean, that's not the bootloader is it? It's the boot bit, but the loader's not the same ) USB connections are disabled in ActiveSync, yet MTTY won't see USB as a method of connection, UNI_ExitBootloader won't see the USB connection, re-patching it only comes up with Error 112, what am I doing wrong? Is my XDA actually bricked? Nothing seems to be working guys, I hope I haven't fooked it
EDIT: Trying different ROM updates (I'm sure they're meant for the universal), getting Error 114 "Radio Rom Update Error", no solution by restarting computer or phone. Or taking out the SIM or SD cards.

USB Cable Disconnected During ROM Install. Did I Brick It?

I was attempting to unlock the GPS on my XV6900 after installing the official Verizon WM 6.1 update, following the instructions on the PPC Haven wiki here: http://wiki.ppchaven.com/index.php?title=Pocket_PC_WIki:FIX_VERIZON_GPS.
I got through the unlocking with 0.40 coke and was flashing 'Flash Sprint ROM RUU_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_1.12.651.1_2.13.00_SPC_NV133_Ship'.
At 13% completete the usb cable was disconnected. I'm now stuck on the rainbow screen with the following info displayed:
VOGU100
SPL-0.36.0000
CPLD-3
'RUUNBH' is displayed in the upper right hand corner.
I tried to reflash the sprint ROM and unlocking with 0.40 coke again without any success. My laptop does not recognize the device when connected via usb, so active sync is also not working.
So this is my last hope. Is there anyone out there who can help out a noob, or did I damage my phone beyond repair?
Thanks in advance for your help. I did a search before posting, but didn't come across the answer. Sorry if I missed it

Anyone? Is it bricked?

you could try this out, if you have a microSD (non HD, wich mean, 2go or less)
1. Download NSFAN's latest Sprint WM6.1 Rom and extract to desktop
2. Rename ROMFILE.nbh to voguimg.nbh
3. Copy voguimg.nbh to MicroSD card that has been formatted to FAT32
4. Insert MicroSD card in phone, and enter bootloader via holding down the Power/Camera/Reset buttons all together.
5. Flash ROM
6. Hard Reset Phone
Good luck!

try the sprint rom with the RUU, even tho it says you need an active sync connection as long as the phone says USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen you can start the update

same happened to me when updating the official verizon 6.1, i took the battery out for like 20 mins and then retried and worked.

HTC EVO fail root power cycles

Hi I have an htc evo and I tried to root it but failed when installing the damage control rom and now my phone just power cycles when I try to boot it up. If I go into bootloader, volume down etc, when I plug it into my pc it says it could not install the driver for Qualcomm msm device and I cannot run the recovery.bat because it just opens for a second then closes. Please help me!!!!!

I GOT the Same issue
I boughtt this phone (HTC EVO) off ebay thinking I can clear DATA and start over-- I've done some researching and it looks like this was a failed FROYO update-- I Tried usring RUU utility to update rom-- and found one that is the same rom as what looks to be on the phone already, because the RUU is telling me something like replace Build 3.26.651.6 with the same thing-- 3.26.651.6-- i will click yes/next-- it will write new info onto the phone-- then it will complete and restart-- then it goes back and power cycles over and over and over again...just on repeat--(i've tried to downgrade roms, but when i do it gives me a error that reads.."Error [140]: Bootloader version error The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again:---- interestingly enough there is no 4g splash screen when it cycles-- it only goes on the startup image "white HTC 4G EVO with black letters" then will turn off..then vibrate, then repeat again...over and over and over again...
PLEASE help--
I feel as though I've tried everything--
I've also attempted to put "PC36IMG.zip" on SD card with my GF's evo-- then back to mine-- because computer doesnt read my com when its pugged through usb-- i can only connect at "Bootload USB plug"
--ANY help will be greatly appreciated.....
Thanks in advance--

ROM update utility will not update ROM

I've been trying to install ACA CLk update to my HD2 since last night. Task29 will not clear rom. Just reads communication error. I have tried it on 2 win7 pc's along with a win xp pc with same results. Please help.

i am having the same error.
whether i run the ROM update utility or use the HD2 tools from the tri-color boot screen, i always get the same UPDATE ERROR (262, i believe).
i'm using USB2, no cradle or dock, brand new HD2.
any help? i'm stuck in a windows environment!

just to be sure : the communication is ok between the computer and ur phone ? u see USB in bootloader?

yes it is between my windows based pc and my HD2. and i have tried through boot loader, seeing seriel first then connecting and then it says USB. i've tried leaving it attached when i restart sit goes straight to USB. i have tried connecting with activesync/windows mobile and then running the ROMupdateutility.exe
i always get the same error: it stalls out right when the progress bar appears and never gets above 0%. then the error screen shows on my PC and i have to go through the recovery process.
thank you for any and all assistance! and sorry for the typos, im normally use swype.

this might have been the problem.
i did not have HardSPL3 installed.
i have done it, and then MAGLDR installed fine.
i skipped Task29 mostly bc i never ran that on earlier installs.
so try HardSPL to solve it, maybe?
(i'm still pretty new to this, so take my suggestions with a few grains of salt)
