HELP!! Cant use my Wizard anymore

Hi guys i'm pretty new in this scene and i did something stupid...
i've downloaded Win Mobile 6 from usenet and installed it without reading
anything. At 95% of the installation it hangs and when i try to recover it doesnt work. Now i only have the screen with the green red and blue at the background. I've tried a hard reset but that doesnt work either and i tried to search by google and found nothing.
Am i right that i had to remove some kind of G4 lock? And does somebody know how to help me getting things started again.....
thnx in advance.

do your carriers flash and let it fully finish. Once thats done, read a little on making sure your device is unlocked and once you get that done, youll be ready to move to the next level.
what your device is g3 or g4?

how do i perform such a flash and how can i see what kind of G3/4 i have??

If you got a G4 or G3 IPL/SPL 2.x:
Try flasing wizard_love rom from the bootloader screen.
If you got IPL/SPL 1.x:
flash button_rom from the bootloader screen.

damn thats a whole mouth full and i dont get it how its intended.....
perhaps you can tell me in dutch or in a language a stupid fool can understand

You should provide more information... What phone model is this? Is it a G3 or G4? What is your IPL / SPL? What did you do before this started happening? Was the battery fully charged before you started this process? Did your PC give you errors when you tried to do teh initial flash that started this process?
The more information you provide the better we can help.
If your phone won't stay turned on when its on the bootloader (rainbow screen) then either your battery is almost dead, or you may have bricked your phone. But we need more details.

this happened to me once, i almost had an heart attack.. but anyway.. what u get there is the bootloader mode, which is you can still save the phone.. when this happened to me, all i did was, i upgraded to original tmobile rom, and from there i ve used shell tool to upgrade to wm6 (my wizard is not unlocked but shelltool takes care of that and u dont have to worry).. its really easy.. let me know what happened.. no worries

Dont worry guys... I think most of us here, faced the same things before, Me included.
Everybody here is quite nice and will help u in any way we can..
Just do some research and fact finding before u flash your rom..
One of the article that I think is very helpful to me is Dr P post on how to unlock and flash your wizard.
If you have any problem or question after reading that, just ask.
Hopefully u can find your answer and your wizard are all healthy..

my phone is G4...first, when i tryed to change the rom, on 95% was blocked..and i have wait about 20 minutes, and nothing...the spl is....01...the battery was quite full, but after several tries, i don't know now how it is (i supose to be from the battery, but i still need a very good rom for it)

ok.. here are the steps.. its very easy.. i had the samething..
your phone is probably CID locked and you will need a shelltool to install that ROM.. so what you need to do is just download the original tmobile ROM.. and connect the phone and install the original ROM.. You didnt birck the phone because you get the bootloader screen.. which means, you can still save the phone..
anyway.. connect the phone via usb and install after you install the original wm5, download the shelltool from here and follow the instructions.. and install the ROM via shelltool.. Then you should be good to go with the new
wm6.

Simple: Go to the Wizard Upgrading forum and in the stickies is a post by Dr. Putingham on how to CID Unlock your device. Scroll to the bottom of the first post and there is a direct link to pull the Tmobile 2.26 official ROM.
But as EasyMob suggested (and gave a link to) you may be better off with teh Wizard Love rom since you are a G4 device. Wizard Love ROM is very good at recovering G4 devices.

If you read my previous post, I gave you exactly how to find the link (Hint, its in the first post of Dr. Putingham's sticky in the Wizard Upgrading forum and the title is about How to CID Unlock your device. Was that too hard?

i believe you, but i can't find it...and about 3 days i'm hopeless, because with any ROM version, the phone is still restarting, after reflashing (i didn't flash it with tmobile original rom)...please please, give me the link of the topic...

The dreaded 95% error... He's right. Your Wizard is still CID locked.
Follow this thread to get your device CID unlocked and then try flashing WM6 again.

If only we were all so rich... When I first started, I downloaded a WM6 Rom I found on this forum but read nothing... Tried to flash it, phone went to bootloader immediately afterwards and would do nothing else. I called T-Mobile and they sent me to the place on T-Mobile.com where I could get the official Rom download and was able to restore my MDA to life again but not until I had read about 20 different threads, did I attempt it again.
Thats the problem with some people here. They don't read and just assume that because they're a Software Dev that they automatically know everything or think that because they're pretty computer savvy that they know what they're doing or think that because they had their device for a few months that they're automatically an expert... It's annoying to tell you the truth because the only real way to learn is through a lot of reading, or trial and error and thats how everyone here has to learn.

I read this forum for a few MONTHS before I flashed my device, and I'm glad I did. Not only do you have to READ the information, but you also have give it time to SINK IN so that it is fully understood.
There are some people who automatically cry out for help without expending any effort (NOOBE needs help! give me a link, fix this, WAA WAA). And then there are the ones who make this a great forum, they READ READ and REREAD, TEST and RETEST and generally provide knowledge, information and assistance.
All of us are riding on the backs of the mostly unsung developers Like Faria, Bepe and all the others.

Hey buddy I'm so pleased you got it done,CONGRATS man

Why the hell do you want Underground????!!!!!!!!
It's old, unstable and has soooo many bugs that have all been resolved in recent ROMs. Have you just had the forum on pda view then jumped at the first WM6 ROM post from the early days?

I'm not interested with the Underground WM6 but when MB_WM6 did not work, i thought of trying that.
I have a question here, i tried installing MB_WM6 and it stopped at 95%, later i tried to install Faria's kitchen ROM and it was successful. I tried unlocking the CID with lokowiz03. Do u people still feel that my phone is still CID locked.

Download WST tool and run it,it'll give all the info about your phone to determine the present status of your phone,only than it can be confirmed if it's cid locked or unlocked.
btw,faria's kitchen is for cooking the custom rom according to your own needs,it contains the Base Rom,OEM,RUU... and tools to build a rom.Did you cook your own Rom and flashed ?

Well said my friend... This is is how it should be. I think there should be a rule that have to be a member for so many weeks before you can even post and access download links on the forum... This should give you time to read before you make a mistake and brick your phone...

Thanks....i will surely search for WST tool. If u could post the link of the WST tool that will be of great help.
Thanks
Abhinandan

Hey........i found the link and also downloaded it.......thanks for the info

i tried flashing buttons ROM twice. The IPL version and others except SPL got changed to older one....but SPL remained the same 2.21, should itry flashing the buttons ROM again and again till SPL get changed to 1.01

do a soft reset of your phone , tap with stylus the soft reset button on the phone.the phone will reboot,see if it changes the spl,otherwise flash button's rom 1.05 a couple of more times and then do the soft reset,hope it'll change

Sorry...for posting the same info in a new thread......one more question here how to do a soft reset...is it by using ur WST tool. By keeping the power button pressed it will ask that device will be turned off....is this soft reset...or is there any other way to do

To perform a soft reset,use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your device,it's a small hole type just underneath Infrared port,you just can't miss it,ok

I simply tried unlocking CID from lokowiz even though my IPL/SPL was 1.05/2.21. I got the below results .....in the result it says CID unlocked, can any senior person have a look at the output say was CID really unlocked

[SOLVED] Help! Upgraded my p4300 with TNT, now phone boots to TSOD! PLEASE HELP

Hello,
Today I upgraded my G4 HTC p4300 using the TNT ROM Pro+HTC Home. It is unlocked, but the splash screen was branded for Unicel.
The Upgrade seams to have worked on the computer end of it, but When I boot my device, it shows HTC Mobility logo, then goes to the Red, Green, Blue screen. If I plug it into the computer with USB, I hear the USB connection sound, and USB appears in the lower left hand corner of my p4300.Active Sync does not see my device. I tried Re-flashing the ROM and it gives me an error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Next time... Read this first.

Flash back to your original ROM or the Wizard Love ROM... Then follow the steps in the link above.

Is this(http://rapidshare.com/files/17792050/Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2.rar) ROM ok for G4 Devices?
Edit- Hmm, this is spanish.

Does anyone know where I could find the original ROM, I see some people suggesting your ftp site, would that have it? If so, how would I login to it(eg. ftp site and user+pass).
Thanks

Ok, I attempted a flash with the spanish version and I got a connection error(264?).

Try the wizard love rom. It will work

BTW, your device is most probably cid locked. Read the guide in the wiki before doing anything else, unless you need a fancy paperweight for your office.

Thanks for your help, my device wasn't locked. Anyway, I sucussfully flashed AKU 2.3.

I flashed my first rom (ever) 3 days ago, so I'm clearly not the most knowledgeable person to answer this question, but I'll give it a shot and old hands on this message board can correct me. I will warn you though, you can search the website for this answer.
The wiki page is helpful... Read it and read this gazillion posts in this forum on that topic before you do anything. Make sure you phone is sync'ed with activesync, make sure your battery is over 50% charged and run HardSPL while your phone is connected via USB. HardSPL will walk you through what you need to do via on-screen prompts.
Once that's done, make sure your NHB & custom RUU file are in the same directory on your PC. Same warnings as before (activesync completed/50% battery) except this time run the custom RUU file. I actually used RaphaelWrapper.exe which you can find on this forum and this provided the same guided prompts on installing the ROM. That should do it.
What did I miss?

I tried running HARDSPL and it sticks on 0% what am i doing wrong?

Need Help with Energy ROM

It seems I'm the only one to have this problem. I am trying to flash the latest Energy ROM build 23504 found in my sig..
Heres the problem:
I go thru the normal steps when I flash:
1) hard reset
2) flash to stock
3) hard reset
4) flash to energy
5) here comes the problem....
After I flash to Energy ROM build 23504. My device resets itself, like normal. RUU says update has been completed successfully. Now as my device boots back up it gets stuck on the verizon screen with the ROM info on it. It will not go past this screen no matter how long I wait.
Here is what I've tried:
1) flash from desktop (xp)
2) flash from laptop (xp)
3) flash from storage card
I have tried redownloading the files multiple times. using diferent browsers.
I only have problem with 23504, I can load NRG's other release 21864 with out problem you can see the latest releases here: http://hotfile.com/list/93326/3d17c67 if you look at the list I've tried all of the 23504 builds. No one over at PPCGeeks Knows of a solution.
Please help.
