dopod 818pro please help.. downgraded and dead

I have a phone locked to the Taiwanese CID, and therefor tried to unlock this so that english rom upgrades could be installed. Now, to do this I first had to do a downgrade, which I got from the internet, pdamobiz.com_downgrade_and_unlockcid.rar . After the downgrade, the phone was suppose to restart and again enter the first fase of restarting. This did not happend, it just stopped at the first picture, the one with the Dopod logo and info about OS and other things. Completely locked.
This means that I can not connect to my computer. Also, a hard reset is not possible, after formating the disk, the phone just returns to this first picture, without any reinstalling of the original rom. What should i then do?
Could somebody please help get my phone back on its feet?
The OS is now 1.0.13.21

need help

ok, i got a att 8525 with herm100 ipl-1.03 & spl-1.11, currently its not booting up because of a failed attempt at installing crc r13.3, i can get it to the tri-color screen, but i can't get it to connect to activesync, it is getting recognized by the other ruu rom flashers but after it goes to 1%, the phone reboots, and i can't get past that even with tryin to flash a factory rom.
there anyway to unbrick my phone?! i've tried a couple of the ways i've found from searching but none seem to work, my pc is running vista but i also have xp on vmware if needed.
well i finally got the factory rom flashed, and now its working again!, i don't know how it happened, it just......happened.

US T-Mobile G1 stucked at Google Account Sync activation

Hello folks, I have purchased a US T-Mobile G1 from the market on this forum and it was unlocked and rooted with latest version of cyanogen mod. Yesterday night while playing with the phone ( I am totally noob with the G1 ) I accidentally wiped everything back to the stock fw, so I lost dangerSPL, HDBoot and also the recovery partition has been corrupted.
Now with the stock firmware I am stuck with the google account sync even though if I press the menu button the APN editing option comes up and it lets me add the APN of my Italian sim card, but no matter what I do it just don't work, it keep say there's a problem with my SIM card network, and to try again.
Also when I turn on the phone I can see a screen that says Aperture Laboratories, with a draw of a cake which says "don't worry u still got root"
What is that??? a sort of perm root??
I been googling for a whole day now about how to bypass this process and I don't seems to have found any working informations.
Can anyone help me please ??? I am desperate ...
The only guide apparently working regarding bypassing the google account sync I have found is this one http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f606/bypass-t-mobile-g1-google-activation-phonecarecenter-781472/ , the problem is I can't just get to install the correct driver on Windows XP SP2/SP3 neither on Windows 7 32bit, I have tried the impossible, but it just doesnt work, and with the default windows 7 driver it can't be seen through adb devices... Is there a way to do it on Linux or Mac ??? Any working usb driver for Linux or osx ???
Does anyone have any idea??? I think the only way to activate this G1 is with a T-Mobile US sim card which I don't have and I don't have chance to get as I am in Italy, any help please ??? If I don't get that god damn home screen I wont be able to do anything ....
Umm - me too,in the same place .
Can't make my Windows (and i tried to use XP an Vista) to recognize HTC G1 as phone, not 'usb mass storage device'
I have successfully activated my G1 through wifi. Regarding the driver installation, I have went through this guide and I have followed it to letter, and it worked, hopefully it will work out for u..

[Q] USB Connection failed

Hi, I need some help from you guys. I flashed WP7 for my HD2, everything was good. But I accidentally unregistered my phone by 'Windows Phone Developer Registration'. And I failed to register it again.
'Error communicating with the developer portal. Please set the correct data and time on the phone, check the Internet connection and try again later (ErrorCode:0x64)' was the error message.
And I failed to flash the ROM or reinstall the MAGLDR113 once again on my phone.
'Error Description: USB init failed; Info: .\RSPL\RSPL.cpp(1198)' was the error message when I tried to flash the ROM again.
How can I fix my problem?

Similar problem here.
I flashed my HD2 with a custom ROM that already had the jailbreak baked into. Yesterday I purchased a developer program membership and thought I might legally register the phone.
I startet the registration tool from the Windows Phone Developer Tools and it said the phone was already registered. I managed to successfully unregister the phone but then, when trying to reregister it using my Live ID, I got the same error message (ErrorCode:0x64).
A lot of people at the developer forum on MSDN are complaining about this error as well. A couple of them said the registration tool wouldn't work on 64bit Windows. Some of them installed Windows 7 x86 on a virtual machine and tried to register their phone from there and it worked.
I am going to give it a try, too.
Did you have any success in the meantime?

DeBrand / ReInstall ROM to your Lumia 950/950XL

Hi there
Here is a way to DeBrand / ReInstall (old) ROM to your Lumia 950/950XL
I went back from 10.0.010586.36 to 10.0.010586.0
Booting of your Lumia 950/950XL
To continue this tutorial, it is necessary to start your Lumia 950/950XL in the FFU Download boot. To do so, follow the five steps mentioned below:
- Turn off your Lumia 950/950XL.
- Press and hold the power button to start your Lumia 950/950XL.
When your Lumia 950/950XL starts, it displays the Microsoft logo.
At this instant, release the power button, then press and hold the volume up button. This step should be done quickly.
After a few seconds, an image composed of a white lightning and a white gear wheel appear on the screen of your Lumia 950/950XL.
At this instant, release the volume up button.
Connect your Lumia 950/950XL at your PC, this one should simply detect it.
Installation of the ROM
The most important part of this tutorial will begin, but it is also the most critical.
You are going to use the Windows Phone Image Designer software for flash your Lumia 950/950XL. (downloads below)
Access to the ..\LumiaFlashTools\WPID directory.
Execute the Start.bat file.
The Windows Phone Image Designer window appears and also two batch windows (don't close it, otherwise it will result in also close the software).
Select the Flash a Windows Phone image onto your phone option , and click on the Next button .
As you have connected your Lumia 950/950XL in Microsoft FFU Download Mode at your PC, the software should detect it as x.MSMx.x.x.x where the differents x are variable in according on the connected Lumia 950/950XL.
If your Lumia 950/950XL hasn't been automatically detected by the software, you can click on the refresh button .
Then click on the Change button.
Select the FFU file
Click on the Flash button .
The software then proceeds at flash, in your Lumia 950/950XL, of the ROM that you previously selected.
A few minutes later, the installation process terminates. The software indicates then that the ROM you selected has been installed in your Lumia 950/950XL.
Your Lumia 950/950XL should restart automatically, integrating then the ROM that you just flash him. You can then disconnect him from your PC.
Have fun with it !!!

Ok. But, WPID is the same thing (the same tutorial) for all WP8.x/W10M Lumia devices. The only thing that is different is currently to get the ROMs.

Hi,
0xc is typically cause by a corrupted image (FFU file). Re-download the FFU file.
BTW; I can get you any FFU file if you provide me an PC number
This is my lumia
Stuck in wheels and reboot every time trying to hard reset
Nothing work with me ....i dont know why ?
Wich version is that

Can you help me plzzzz
none of them, it is prototype not retail device like the ones in shops.
DJO,
the reason you cannot flash the firmware is because these firmware versions posted are signed:Retail. You have a prototype, which does not have the proper certificates installed (unless they were loaded to that device specifically) for you to install retail signed firmware. You can check the status of this with thor... using the read rdc command.

Djtonka,
can you get a hold of the rdccac file for the 950?

Just curious, is it possible to install a branded ROM onto a phone with an unbranded ROM, assuming that the ROM is for the Lumia 950 XL RM-1085 versions? Only reason I'm asking is because the SIM settings on my phone is screwed up and my phone is stuck in airplane mode, and I'm thinking maybe if I flash one a branded ROM it will fix it, so then I can flash back to the unbranded one after. I tried reflashing the same ROM and my phone is still stuck in airplane mode...
So I have an att Lumia 950... If I do this will my phone act like an unlocked unbranded 950 ? Will I be able to receive firmware updates? Because I have att and I haven't received any firmware updates and I really think they would help my battery life. Thanks
