I flashed to NBD 8.0 about a week ago and have been loving it's sweetness. Today though, I turn on my wizard and it won't get past the NBD startup screen. I have reset and taken out the batter a few times now to no avail. Can anyone help?
Could it be... dare I say.. Bricked.
Can't even do a hard reset.
Your gonna have to do a hard reset. i've had the same, but search to NBD8.0 forum the procedure is there if you can't google it for hard reset of your device. also try to keep your reply/questions in that particular post and try not create a post when one already exsits for the rom your using. They stress the fact that you must read before asking a question that's been asked a thousand times.

I had the same problem with a different rom, but the same OS. If you see the boot splash screen, and the boot stops in there, press the power button and keep it press when you notice that the boots hangs up. it might power off you device, o bring it to life.
To do a hard reset on a wizard, you must press the comm button + voice dial button + reset button (with the stylus).
Then press send when the screen ask for it.

Did you remove your SD card, sometimes that helps
Eelco
while doing your hard reset, don't let go of the two buttons after you have used the sylus.
NDB 8.0 stuck at the 3rd screen- PLEASE HELP!

Thanks in advanced for your guys help!

I have the same problem too on v7.9 and v8.0. I've soft resetted the next day, and it always gets stuck on the 3rd splash screen. I tested this out a couple of times. But when I was using v7.4 I never had that problem.
I just had the same problem (stuck on NBD screen) with 7.9, after trying to access an html file saved on the sd card. A hard-reset solved the problem (after some brick-scare time, though ... )
the problem I have is I can't even get pass the 3rd screens. soft-reset and hard reset did not help. Tried to get the the bootload to reload the os but CAN'T.
The problem I have is I can't get pass the 3rd screen. Hard or soft resets didnot help. I want to reload the OS but CANT get to the bootloader screen. Tried all combination of keys that described on this forum. Anyone has any other ideas?

this should work:
- turn it off
- remove sd card
- while pressing the voicedial button turn it on (keep pressing the voicedial button till bootscreen appears)
- reflash os
It would help me a little if those who are having this problems gives more details (g3 or g4, ipl/spl version, extra software installed, do they use touch version or not)
Zoki, here are my details : NBD 7.9 touch on a G3, IPL/SPL 2.26, GSM 2.11 (the t-mobile version, i flashed the 2.69 version since) running BatteryStatus 1.04.201 beta3. Nothing more installed except tom tom 6.02 and opera mini 4 beta. I was browsing the minisd card with the built-in file explorer to open an html file with IE when it completely froze.
I tried holding the power button in order for it to reset, to no avail. I popped out the battery, remove the sd card, but it stuck on boot on the NBD screen. After trying several times, I hard-reset it, and it worked.
I count on upgrading to ipl/spl 3.08 before installing NBD 8.1.
Update: I flash on a laptop computer running XP Pro, and before installing NBD 7.9 I flushed the t-mobile 2.26 version, as recommended somewhere in this forum. Last program I installed, several hours before the freeze (and forgot to mention) was Deepfish (latest version).
Zoki, i am ready to help if you need to run tests/debug/log, thank you very much for your work !
Is the lock up happening after you install software?
I have experienced the same issue when I install any third party software into NBD V8. I think this is one of the best ROMs I have worked with and tested other than this issue.

My is a G3 Version.
CID Unlocked
IPL/SPL Versions 2.25
Base Rom V8, No changes, TouchFlo enabled
installed via ShellTool
OS of host machine: Vista Ultimate with XP HTC device drivers.
Issues installed when installing any cab file or installation from Active sync.
I had to do a reset and then I noticed it locks up in the NBD screen. The issue can only be resolved with a hard reset.
Hope this helps... Will be looking for any input and if I can help in any way! PM me!
Here is my setup
Mine is a G3 Version.
CID Unlocked
IPL/SPL Versions 3.08
Radio 2.19 and 2.69 (tried both w/ same problem)
Base Rom V8, No changes, TouchFlo enabled
I have installed:
Bluetooth Headphones
Hardware GPS unit
Coreplayer
iGo Myway gps software
Piscel Browser
Now I have tried to test it out to see what is making the system freeze on that 3rd screen. So I installed each of those programs. Then I do a soft reset. It starts up fine each time. My problem seems to happen like the next day or so. If I soft reset the next day, then it will freeze. So i'm not totally sure if it's 3rd party software or not. When I was using his 7.4, I had all these programs installed and no problems with soft reset.
I've done the take out SD Card, reboot and whatnot. Same problem. The only thing that works for me is to either Hard reset (holding comm manager button, voice record button + reset button) or to go into boot mode (power button + camera button + reset) and do the reflash.
Bottom line is though, it's a great rom, i love it. Having it freeze isn't totally a big deal to me, since I keep my stuff backed up through the PIM. I think I just need to stay away from doing soft resets. Hopefully someone will figure out what is going on with it. But for now i'm fine with it.

Anyone know how to get to the bootloader (3 colors) screen? I tried the power+talk+reset, comm+talk+reset, messaging+ie+reset, etc. - none seem to work. Anyone has other ideas?

I tried to update the rom for my MDA compact from the T-mobile website, but when i got to stage two (ExtRom update) it froze at 56%. No when i manage to get the device started up, there is no t-mobile branding (which is good i think unless i need it) and when i try to soft reset it stays in bootloader.
Problems: 1. Is it alright to have no ExtRom
2. Why does it stay in Bootloader when I try to soft Reset.
Any advice?
Jermz
****************Update************
I just tryed to update again, using the way on the Wiki and it froze at 56% again!!! Always the same percentage!!! The Rom I used is from the T-mobile Website, I will try an older rom and see what happens. Please some one reply.
************Update**************
So I tried an older rom, the one of the wiki, and it was working good, then froze on 26%, so I started up my device and it asked me to pick a customization.ie, UK_tmobile, Uk_Vodafone etc, so I picked Uk_tmobile, and it installed, but after, warning window came up saying the file Default_Caller_ID is not a Windows CE system file. Then froze my device, I soft reset, and it went back to bootloader. Why does it goto bootloader when soft resetted? Getting very scared, help!
hello, i currently have the faria rom installed. the rom version is 3.3.0.0 with extrom faria v4.0. whenever i try to flash a newer faria wm6 rom, it doesn't want to work. i open the upgrade utility and everything seems to be working fine, then when it starts the process it first tries to restart the phone, but instead of restarting, it just stays off and doesn't come back on. i tried other roms, and even the t mobile 2.26 rom and still no luck.. anyone have a clue to whats going on? thanks.
try install a different rom first to see if it does the same
I've tried 4 different roms including the official t mobile 2.26 rom and still no luck...
A friend of mine had similar. If you run any RUU program the phone just turns off and won't turn back on (without pulling the battery). We tried numerous things (including forcing bootloader by using the camera button and another with a method listed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294107 so give that a shot) and it still wouldn't work. He called Cingular and they are shipping him a new phone (warranty exchange).
Have you tryed HardReset & reinstall Active Sync and then try again to flash ?
thank you very much guys you were both biiiiiig help! i forced the phone into bootloader mode with the camera button, then turned it back off and on. then when i ran the update utility again this time it didn't just stay off it restarted normally and entered into the bootloader mode. thanks again!!
Hello everyone. I hope you can be of some assistance, because I'm really getting desperate.. I CID unlocked my wizard (i-mate k-jam) so that I could install WM6. I then installed XPlore 1.1 from anichillus. Everything went ok. Some time after, and looking to speed-up wm6, I installed BatteryStatus beta3. The PPC would freeze everytime I tried to overclock the cpu, so I decided to uninstall BatteryStatus. I got an error message saying that BatteryStatus could not be removed completely, but the today plugin wasn't there anymore, so I thought it had been removed correctly. I soft-resetted the PPC and now it doesn't boot anymore. It just stays at the boot screen listing ipl, spl, gsm and os. I used the usual key combination to get into the rom uploading mode, and I can upload any rom that I want, but all of them fail to boot. It just stays at the bootloader screen. I tried many roms, including the latest i-mate one.
Is there any way to recover from this? Is it possible that BatteryStatus made some irreversible modification to the cpu registers?
I'm far from an expert in these matters. Please help. My wizard was a big investment and I can't afford to lose it.

Do a hard reset.
The first thing I tried was a hard reset, with no luck. I get a "Format is failed" output message.
Try this:
Disconnect the PPC from the usb. Kill the wcescomm.exe process on your PC. Take the PPC battery out for a few minutes. Replace. Put it into bootloader mode and reconnect. Reflash with the stock tmobile rom.
Hope this helps!
I solved the problem.. Followed the procedure explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=276963
I have tried 4 different versions of WM6 from here...Some of them after the upgrade do not run at all.The device hungs up at the splash screen, i reset the device ,hard reset the device ,remove the battery but nothing happens.
This lately occured after installing faria's rom.
Other roms after entering the main screen ,start menu etc, they crash which after each reset happens over and over again...
I'm starting to wonder...is something wrong with my device?
Many times this happens even with the official qtek rom.
Just a question, have you unlocked your phone?
How do i tell if its unlocked or not?
I never had a single problem during an upgrade...but crashes keep on happening right after or in the proccess of a hard reset, i repeat , even with the official ROM, which took me today 2 hours to make it install and run smoothly at last! (unexpected resets , not loading after hard or soft reset)
The device now works fine but it took me so much time to bring it to that condition that i wont be flashing it again unless something very bad happens.
put your device on bootloader then downgrade it to your official rom then after running you have to unlock before reupgrade to any other WM6.0 rom
hi everyone. yesterday i installed dr. gonzo's wm6.1 rom in my VOX. it was great and it worked perfectly in my phone.
The main problem started when i restored the backuped data. I took, This backup with sprite backup tool before upgrading my mobile from wm6.0 to wm6.1. when i restored this data taken in version 6.0, in version 6.1, i found that my homescreen is blank. whenever i press start button i find the following message display on my screen: Cant Find ':MSSTART' (or one of its components). MAKE SURE THAT THE PATH AND FILENAME ARE CORRECT AND THAT ALL THE LIBRARIES ARE AVAILABLE.
The same messge appears when i press any numeric key replacing MSSTAART with MSCDIAL.
Actually, when i backuped the data it also backuped the registry settings and when i restored the data it applied version 6.0 registry settings to version 6.1.
Now, neither my phone is getting connected to the activesync nor it is getting HARD RESET(I tried many times to Hard Reset it, but never succeeded. What happens is that as soon as i press the POWER button while holding both the soft keys, the phone TURNS OFF).
Please cananyboby help me? can anybody tell me that is there any other way to hard reset? or, how can i restore the phone back to factory settings?
Thanks for understanding my problem so patiently.
hoping to get a solution soon.
thanks
Get the battery out for a few seconds and put it back, and then do a hard reset.
But I think that you are not doing hard reset correctly, you have to press power button and both soft keys while your phone is turned OFF, then your phone will ask you to pres green button and it will do a hard reset.
must press the green dail key to comfirm the reset operation
error in uPgrading the ROM
Ive tried many times to hard reset but it dosent seems to take place. i tried to reflash my phone from the bootloader mode but it dosent seem to fi my problem. it showed an error while reflashing stating IMAGE FILE IS CORRUPT. IVE attached an image of that error.
any help???
LOL~~~
I see, first shut down your s710, hold the 2 soft keys
and then press the power button shortly (must not too long)
ive performed hardreset 3 times earlier but this time i cant hard reset just because of the problem. the problem is that none of its functions are working. i really need some help this time!!!
I am using this rom, it can be hardset by this method.
hold the 2 soft keys utill dialog show, press the power about 1.5-2 sec.
Hard reset capabilities are not dependant on the ROM. You need to properly flash with a signed HTC ROM or USPL and then an unsigned ROM. I don't think you're doing the proper steps involved to hard reset or to flash correctly. Re-read the Wiki.
Problem Solved
I was trying to flash 6.1 version after the problem occured so it showed IMAGE FILE currupt. Then I tried to flash the original(manufacturer's) version in the bootloader mode. everything went properly and my vox flashed perfectly.Now i've once again flashed the 6.1 version and is working great.
'My hearty Thanks' to everyone for the help and support.
