can you still get to bootloader?

No more bootloader screen, just a blank white screen.
I had the bootloader screen b4 and tried to reflash it, even though flash was successful, it still turns off after splash screen. So I tried one of the Qtech bootloader roms and flash that, now it's worse than before. I only get a blank white screen when I load the bootloader.

i also got the problem with my sda, it also happened while flashing, do u already found a solution

Guys, are you speek about one subj? Bootloader mode is activated when you start your device with camera button pressed. There is NO white screen - in bootloader mode OS is NOT loading at all! But - you can start re-flashing process as usual
If it works, I recommend you to flash back your native ROM and then check the device. If everything is fine - you know what to do If not - let's continue thread...
And one more thing - are you sure, that your SDA is based on Tornado platform? AFFAIN SDA has two reincarnations - one of them is based on Typhoon platform, other one - on Tornado one. There are a LOT of cases, when people flased Tornado ROM to the first one and had a dead device after it Be VERY carefull!!!

so in this case, it seems like it's mine, just got a white screen and no bootloader mode

I would be lucky if I can still get into bootloader mode which means there is life left. Now, all I get is a white screen on the Tornado( it's a T-mobile SDA-silver color with bump). I am looking to see if the dealer would be able to revive it. I got a MDA now

About get into bootloader there's enough hints from peoples above. Simply hold camera button while you press the power button, and soon you will see a three color stripped screen, without normal booting splash like "DOPOD". Then you'll be able to flash as you like with RUU of MTTY.
I'm just guessing you've been flashed a Radio version over 02.00.09. As I know, you have to upgrade your IPL version to 2.00 as well as a SPL upgrade to version 2.00.00, for the new RADIO to work. Just a hint you may not noticed.

there's nothing you can do. I had similar experience, went to bunch of services, no one could fix it.

Some one can repair it by "change the code lib", I don't know how to say it in english. But apparantly someone in my city can do it without touch your phone.

I did upgrade in my O2 Neo, but after upgrade rom i´ts don´t turn on
What i cam do ?
O2 Neo is not a Magician, it is a Prophet (I think)
Anyway, we need more infor. What you do use to upgrade, where did you get it from, how do you perform your upgrade, any error message during upgrade, what's the sign now, all dark, hang on a particular screen, etc.
My Pocket is PM300 HTC
I did upgrade, and this show 100% and reset the pocket after upgrade, by this dont work, the screen splash blink only and turn off.
The led Red and Blue is blinks.
I used RomUpdateUtility HTC and the rom image i used Xda_Minis_Upgrade_v2.21.4.101
You used the ROM of a XDA-miniS (aka `Wizard`) to upgrade your `Prophet`. You are seriously screwed. You may have made yourself the most expensive paper weight you ever had.
Anyway, try see if you can boot into bootloader mode (3 colour screen). If you can do that, there are still hope.
My Pocket is PM300 HTC died
This show
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.0001
and turn off i can´t update the rom.
What can i do ?

I need more details. That do you mean by `This show`? Where is these information shown? in the bootloader (3 colour screen) or the initial screen where your phone freeze. If you were able to get into the bootloader, you might able to get your Prophet ROM into it. Just start on bootloader mode, and plug in the USB. Activesync will not tell you anything, but you ought to able to still upgrade/refresh a Prophet ROM into it (eg running those ROM with EXE).
Can someone confirm if the ROM he used has IPL/SPL in or not?
Mod, can you move this to Prophet section.
More detail
These information shown in the bootloader (3 colour screen)
the initial screen show only O2.
i cant get bootloader, the Prophet only flashes.
The Activesync not tell anything.
I need move this for Prophet ?

Your statements are contradicting. You said you get these information from bootloader screen but you said you can get bootloader?
Anyway, if can get the bootloader screen. Just stay there. Connect it to your PC. And choose a *Prophet* ROM with EXE extension to run on your PC. It works most of the time. For step by step instruction, do a search here. I bet there are lots of similiar cases.
I can´t get bootloader
The screen with three coulours show about 3 seconds and this turn off.
I hope I'm wrong, but if your bootloader is gone, you device is gone. Hope others can help.

Can't get into bootloader

I am unable to get into boot loader mode.
I've pressed camera + power and reset as usual but it won't go into bootloader it just boots the phone up.
I managed to get into bootloader mode using a KaiserCustomRRU and then it picked up the new ROM from the SDCard but when i press power to flash the rom nothing happens.
I can still boot into windows mobile and the power button works when I press it there.
I only got this kaiser a day ago is it possible this is a new version or something?
Please help!

Are you fully pressing the Camera button, it has two levels, it must be presses in fully and help whilst you restart your phone with the stylus (or turn on if the phone is off).
Off Topic:
This makes a nice change, helping someone into bootloader, rather than someone stuck in it.
Dave
Yup I'm pressing it down super hard, I've had the kaiser since it came out so I know I'm doing it as usual. For some reason it isn't working this time.
I had lots of trouble flashing HardSPL aswell! Now this problem with entering boot loader. This is getting irritating .

Does the Camera button work normally? I.e. Launches the camera in Windows.
What problems are you having with HardSPL?
Dave
Yup camera button does work normally.
I had to reset the device loads of times before customRUU noticed that the phone was plugged in.
At the moment I'm stuck in RUUNBH recovery mode in HardSPL. It detects that I have put a memory card with a KAISIMG.nbh into the phone, it says that it will flash radio, rom, splash and says press power to continue but when I press power nothing happens. Now no matter what I do I can't get out of HardSpl and I can't even flash a rom anymore

Check the link in my sig for getting out of the bootloader...

Thanks so much
Ok so its booting up again but I'm still having the same problem, ie it won't get me into bootloader using camera and power button.
I can't even press the 2 buttons to clear storage either, it just boots straight into the rom.

Very strange...
Why do you need to access the Bootloader? To flash from SD Card?

Dave
Yup also I'm having weird problems which I think are associated with this particular problem.
When I boot up the rom lots of keys just randomly get pressed. e.g. if I have a pin set loads of characters will be put into the input box and the only way i can stop it is by pressing a hardware button.
I'm trying to flash a dutty rom which I know doesn't really have those kinda problems to see if its just the rom, although other people aren't reporting the same problem with the rom though :/

Flash back to your Original ROM, Radio and SPL. If the problems are still occuring, take it back to the shop, IMO.

Reverted everything back to default now, still got the same problem so I'm going to get a replacement send out to me tomorrow.
Do you think there is a new version of the kaiser that messes up when you flash hardspl?

I doubt they gave you that newer Model what doesn't work.
I think it is the SPL that figures out wether or noot to boot the OS or run the Bootloader... when loading the OS the SPL checks for what keys are pressed and goes into the SPL or OS.
If Hard SPL and the OEM SPL fail to load the bootloader, there must be something wrong with the device IMO.

I have the same problem with key press, it happened after a recent flash to a new rom.
I have found out what keys it is in my case. It is the "button 6" (voice recorder) and "edfc".The last are just endlessly pressed. Anybody knows how to fix this? My temporary fix was to remap button 6 to "rotate screen" but it is really anoying. I would like to just disable button 6, until I can return it, if there is no fix.
The problem has persisted over 3 roms now (PV rom (8 oct by medkid) - where it all started, Garmin 4.3 and now hyperdragon III 6 oct)
any help will be greatly welcomed!

Kaiser stuck on green WM6.1 clear memory screen

I have a Kaiser which I updated a while ago with WM6.1 official Belgian dutch. Since it became way to slow, I wanted to hard reset the device. Since a couple of hours, it has been stuck on the green WM screen saying The device is erasing the memory, Please wait...
I have been looking through the forum, but have not found the same issue.
It does not come up in acctive sync, so a normal relaod is not possible. Any ideas?

manually go into bootloader if you want to reflash the rom, if phone is powered on hold camera button in and the softreset button at the same time! it sounds like you possibly have had a bad flash, OR you had a bad download!!!
Not possible to flash anything
what I've tried so far:
- activate active sync to install hardSPL. Not working
- install HardSPL through microSD. Not working
- install ROM through SD. Not working
I tried a non HCSD for a change, and then I see the loading scree flashing up, but quickly says No rom found and returns to the bootloader screen.
The only thing that works is load the bootloader (red green blue white) into a screen that says:
KAIS130
SPL-3.29.0000
CPLD-8
Serial
When connected to USB, it says USB, but no disk is showing in Explorer or any connection is made to AS
The only thing I've done in the past is flash the 6.1 rom through the system provided by HTC with a file called RUU_Kaiser_HTC_NLD_3.29.404.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.exe
Please help, I really like this phone and hate to loose it
put it into bootloader, connect it to the computer and then flash one of the htc roms. make sure its an htc rom, you cant flash a custom rom cause you dont have hardspl
I have not been able to find the original rom, only the exe from htc which says Connect with active sync. Do I have to set it in bootloader and then execute the program?
Solved
Just want to let you know I sorted it out!
Flashing the original rom does not need active sync, the bootloader USB connection is sufficient.
After this, the phone restarted in 'Erasing memory' mode, but was able to finish it and reinstall the whole rom.
I believe I got the taste of it and will start testing some other roms...

Stuck at AT&T screen after attempted ROM flash?

I installed HardSPL and checked to make sure it installed fine, ect. Then I went and downloaded this ROM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497699
I established an activesync connection and then installed the ROM, waited until it was 100% done and it reset itself. The next time it booted up, it stuck at the AT&T logo screen. I read somewhere to hard-reset when you get to the part where you configure the stylus... wanted to get back to a working phone, I hard-reset and formatted. When I reboot it still sticks at the AT&T screen, with the 3 colums of orange letters on the bottom.
Did I do something wrong, and what can I do?
Thanks.
get back to the tri-screen bootloader (hardspl, turn the phone on, volumedownkey+centerbutton+reset) , reflash the rom...
Is your phone cdma? If so, then, yeah, you did something wrong.

I should have specified, it's a GSM phone. The AT&T Fuze.
I also updated the OP with a working link, didn't realize it linked back to the ROM Development page. =/
Thanks for the suggestions though. I'm hoping I didn't do anything I'll regret, I can't afford to have an expensive paperweight right now.
go into bootloader (volume down and reset button) until u see the tri color screen. then connect the phone computer using ur usb cable and you should see something on the bottom of the screen that says "usb" now try flashing a ROM again.
flash the stock rom, then try reflashing the custom rom again!
Same thing happened to me with a Energy Rom so I just had to choose a different version of it and it worked

Htc Touch Pro -RAPH100 serious problem

Hi there,
I need help to know whats going on with my HTC Touch Pro.
After more than 1 year of use, the phone started yesterday giving this message:
RAPH100
SPL-5.05-0000
MicroP-Raph (LED) v13
MicroP-Raph (KEY) v5
PSOC-Raph STAGE_CVT v0x36
PCBID 0x80
RID 0x0
This happens with the screen splitted in 4 colours.
Before giving this message I can read very quickly a system message saying "No image file!"
The phone JUST shows this message, I can't do ANYTHING on it. I have tried to make an hard reset, but nothing - only shows this message.
What can I do to fix this?
thanks,
Alex

I have downloaded this file from htc.com site:
_HTC Touch Pro_RUU_Raphael_HTC_PTG_5.05.410.1_Radio_Signed_Raphael_52.58.25.30_1.11.25.01_Ship
Somehow the laptop was able to recognize usb connection to HTC and it seems it was installed. BUT in practice, everything stayed the same - only that screen appear, and nothing else.
Any other suggestions?
thanks
Try flashing from MicroSD. I think there's a summary of how to do this in one of the stickies in the Rom Development subforum. Sounds like your rom got corrupted or something is trigger that screen.. That screen you mention is the bootloader screen. It's access by holding down the Volume Down rocker as you power on the device.

tried to FLASH HARDSPL but was not successful.
Can this be a hardware problem?
is there a way of reinstall the windows mobile, besides doing an hard reset?
Even i can flash the ROM , but the screen is always the same with the 4 colours.
more clues?
in your case, doing a hard reset seems to be the least of your worries. you can install the stock roms w/o hardspl so you should give that a shot first. through usb and through sd card if usb doesn't work.
from what you've said, you could flash the stock ROM but when you start up your phone, it brings you back to bootloader?
also, when you attempted to flash hardspl, what error did you get?

Hi there,
When I try to install hardspl the progression bar does not goes forward, it stays in the 0% - this by USB - I did not try it in the SDcard, but I think it should be the same...
I can flash the ROM with USB, but after the install is complete it brings me back the same 4 colours screen with that error I have mentioned first.
The funny is the cellphone just started this from day to night. Did not fell on the floor, I didn't installed anything... strange.
Can this be an hardware problem?

How can I fix this?
Even if the Vol Down button was stuck, she wouldn't get the "No Image File" message... it would just go into bootloader mode and say, "Serial".
I had this problem when I first got my Fuze and was playing with new roms. The solution would be to flash a new rom on there and be careful.
Connect the phone through USB and turn on the phone while holding Volume Down
Tri-Color screen should read "USB" at the bottom.
Load up the official firmware upgrader and click through the screens.
Wait for it to fully load.
If you are having problems with the official firmware, perhaps you have a bad download and need to redownload it.
Honestly, I think you should take it in (or send it in) for service. I'd quit screwing with it. You've got the stock rom and spl on there, and it's stuck in bootloader for some mysterious reason. You're ok. But if somehow you flash any non-stock firmware on there, and you end up still stuck in bootloader, you may have passed the point of no return, warranty-wise. Bummer that it happened, and it could well be a stuck volume down button, but I wouldn't try flashing as the solution.
i'd agree. since it seems like you never managed to successfully flash anything, everything should still be stock. and sometimes you get lucky and they don't care about that anyways. just send it in
