Touch screen broken! Need help reverting to stock. - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

My touch screen seems to be not working at all on my 8125 and now I need to make my phone go back to the original condition again so I can send it in for warranty repair. The only problem is that I can't download the official 8125 ROM of the HTC website because their link is totally messed up. I also checked the WIKI and that link to the original ROM is also broken. Would anybody by kind enough to point me to where I can find the original Cingular ROM or upload it? Also, is there anything else I have to do to revert it back to factory condition (maybe re-lock CID)?

What's wrong with the link? I was able to download it. Did you use this link?
http://download.america.htc.com/RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1.exe

The file starts to download, but it will never finish. I have already contacted HTC and they say it is because their site is going through a major upgrade. Any other sources?

unable to initialize camera Problem

Hi all,
yeaterday I installed Nadavi HTC Camera cab file. the installation did not finished, it failed (however I see that the free space on the device is smaller now).
since then, the camera shows me "unable to initialize camera. failed to set up the camera device".
I tried:
to run it from windows/camera.exe
to put out the battary for 15 minutes
read all the related posts
installed the Nadavi_OLD_HTC_Camera_5_0_4_2915_00 - did not helped
is there any solution for this?
thanks,
Royi.
If all else fails you'll have to try a hard reset. Remember to back up all your contacts and messages first.
thanks for the respond.
is this the only solution for this issue?
I just done a hard reset, and it did not helped.
someone got another ideas?
i'm really sad about that one...
I would consider reflashing the phone with the same (or maybe a different/cooked) ROM; I'm positive that your problem is related exclusively to software.
Good luck!
i'm a newbe at this...
you got any guide or something like that for this procedure?
plus, what version do you recommend?
Just to rule out a bad ROM I'd flash the original 6.0 ROM first to verify that the camera indeed works. If not, then you must remove hardspl and send your phone to service. If it starts working again you can try the cooked 6.1 ROM again.
the problem is that i'm already using the original ROM.
I never installed a new rom.
my rom ver is:
1.25.405.1 WWE
radio:
1.58.21.23
Protocol ver:
25.65.30.04H
so, is it really needed to install the oroginal rom again?
If it's not modified, then it may worth taking your chance with the service.

you mean to send it to HTC?
someone? help!
I don't know the camera fix you applied, so I don't know that it was trying to do. But since you have not upgraded the ROM or changed the SPL to HardSPL I would send it in for repair if you are still under warranty.
If not, I'd try reflashing the original ROM if you can get it. That way you will reflash everything in case the camera fix overwrote something, but that I find quite unlikely, but it's your last best hope if you are out of warranty, unless you want to pay for a repair that is.
this is the cab I installed

thanks for helping me...
I flashed to udk7 diamond rom...it did not helped as well.
How can I check if this is a software issue or Hardware?
sorry for the nudging...but someone got any ideaz?
If you have tried both original and cooked ROMS, what do you think? I'd say it's obviously a hardware issue. Reflash original ROM and remove HardSPL and return the device to service.
I tried only to flash to udk7 ROM. is it worth a try to flash to the original one?

Yes, I'd certainly try the original too since it contains OS, radio and the whole lot.
Is your camera work one time or never ?
If never work just send the Phone to HTC or go to your operator ( SAB: Service After Buying ??? like SAV in france ?).
Have you try to flash with a new RADIO rom like 1.64.**.**
Where do you bought your phone ?
Same problem for me.
Send the phone to HTC. It's a hardware problem.
Don't try any flash o fixing. If the camera don't work after a hard reset, you have a motherboard problem.
Send it to HTC and they will change the board. I have now a new IMEI number.

Reverting to official RUU with HardSPL

I have been searching all over for this but it's probaly right in front of my face. I read that you need to get rid of SPL.nbh from official ROMS before flashing back with HardSPL. The problem is, the official T-Mobile Wing ROM that I downloaded is an .exe file. How do I go about removing the SPL.nbh file since it doesn't display folder contents or anything, just runs the RUU?
Sorry for the double post, I realized I was in the wrong forum

Hang tight the link will be available within 10 mins.
Thank you sir. Greatly appreciated

Remove HARD-SPL On The Wing
This is the same tool used to flash your device when it was not HARD-SPL.
I replaced the RUU_Signed file and SPL.nh file already.
It will bring your wing back to the stanard rom as when you first got it.
One more question. I'm looking to keep HardSPL but I have to revert to original to upgrade ROMS don't I? I want to upgrade to your OT 6.5 ROM

Okay,
I thought you wanted to go back to the original T-Mobile rom.
If your trying to HARD-SPL your device to install one of my roms or another cooks roms then thats another story.
Please read my FAQ or one of the stickies.
Ok, I think I got it now. So I don't need to revert to the original ROM to flash it since I have HardSPL? Thanks for the help
wen i did this i think i bricked my fone now its at the tmobile screen and it jus staying there
I tried the file that you uploaded here...And it went thru the whole process of flashing the ROM, but after it updated my wing just stays on the T-Mobiel screen and never boots past that.
It had that open touch software on it and I don't want open touch. I want plan old WM 6.0 on there.
I called T-Mobile and got an offical 6.0 update from them, but when I try that one it gets to 1% then says it has a disconneted and I get a connection error.

So does this work? The two people who did this had problems. I need the phone to be all stock so I can have t-mobile send a free replacement because the screen is going on this wing.
***EDIT:*** Oka so this is the same as http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364543&page=2 the first time I tried it it froze at 15% on step 2 so I installed the RAPI CAB like it says. Step two completed, phone rebooted and had white screen then I got error 260 I think. I have the stock t-mobile rom on it and had it on before I did this but it still has the yang from when I did a hard spl. Is there another way to get it to stock or am I doing something wrong? Plug in phone, let it sync, run herald-uspl.exe hit enter and so forth.
***EDIT*** Ok so this time it completed but is now stuck at the T-Mobile screen and I am now unable to even flash because I can't get past it And that damn yang still shows up in bootloader. Well went into bootloader and flashed from there so phone works but the damn yang is still there. And on a side note: Has anyone ever had a problem with their screen going very dark after flashing a rom from here? Phone was fine then I flashed OTP v7.4 TouchFlo 2D Lite.nbh yesterday and at night screen started going dark, would light up when opened in keyboard mode, then switched and then both were very dark and hard to see. I then flashed to OTP v7.3.1 TouchFlo 2D Final.nbh and still dark. Then I flashed to stock rom and have been able to see the screen since.
This is stupid easy to do... im shocked there isnt a post going into detail.
5 steps to going back.

Did not work. Do I need to install the cab files again? I know I deleted a file out of the stock rom so it would not overwrite or verify or something but I put that file back, should I not have? This has been a few weeks and still can't get the yang off. Screen on my girls phone is almost dead, she can't even slide it any more so I need to fix the spl so I can send back to t-mobile....anyone ?
this is what i do to get back to the tmobile orginal. download the software from tmobile. I downloaded the newest update from tmobile site. REMOVE YOUR SD CARD. Connected my phone via usb. Launched the update. It has never failed me yet. It is just like updating your phone. tmobile has to take it, it is their update. They sent me a new phone noproblem, matter of fact i have to do it again, the back on the phone keeps getting loose on me. so they are sending me another phone again. hope this helps.
Alternatively you can use the combination of uspl and stock rom ruu to return your device to stock tmobile rom...
1. Enter in to uspl like you were falshing one of ttran001 roms... You can get this HERALD-USPL-beta3 from http://rapidshare.com/files/79249048/Flash_Center.rar
2. ONLY use steps 1 and 2 from the black screen (getting the white screen on your device)...
3. For step 3 in the flasher exit out of the black screen (windows cmd screen) by pressing ctrl+C...
4. Fire up the official ruu from tmobile found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358030 or alternatively if you have a tmobile account still active you can get the most up to date rom from http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/
5. Fallow on screen instructions...
6. Back to stock rom...

Being stuck at the Tmobile screen isn't a true brick. Just reflash your ROM. (If you're not HardSPL'd, reflash your RUU.)
Remove Hard SPL from bootloader
Hi,
Anyone out there knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader of Wing. Problem is my mobile displays splash screen, then switch offs by itself. Its been quite some time that I have hardspled it and have been using it. But recently I am facing this issue, so I am trying to move to original RUU and try if it works.
So for that anyone knows if we can remove hardspl from bootloader, because I am only able to enter bootloader. Moreover I tried several original roms from Flash Center as well as through SD card as well, but still be SPL version is 4.70.yang. Anyone knows any other alternative.
Also, if anyone has faced similar problem then kindly advice how you resolved.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Pankaj

Splash Screen Brick

Heya,
I have an ATT Tilt (8925), and was using one of Dutty's custom roms. The phone was working great for quite a while, until yesterday. Now it just boots and goes to the ATT splash screen (or HTC splash screen if I flash an HTC rom).
I have tried flashing the original ATT shipped rom, HTC shipped rom, and Dutty's again to no avail. When it looked lost, I called ATT and they offered to exchange it under warranty.
The kicker is, I don't know if they will accept it with Hard SPL 3.56 still on it. I have reloaded the original shipped ROM, but have no way to restore the SPL from what I've read, because I cannot get fully booted. Is there a way to restore the shipped SPL without having to copy the SPL to the phone? (maybe through MTTY or frankenkaiser?)
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I don't think they care what spl is on the phone. I have returned a few of them...just make sure the stock rom is on it.
i did just see something about spl being on the phone when trying to use warinty... its on the wiki.... saw it like 2 min ago... can u run any rom on the phone? origional or home brew?
I hope they don't care
Yeah, I'm really hoping that they don't mind it. I was able to flash the shipped rom, but I still can't seem to find anything saying how to restore the SPL without being able to transfer files to the phone.
Thx Cmonex
I did a lot of searching, but not enough I guess.
Thx Cmonex for your post and utilites "in Kaiser intermittently stuck in SPL? - Possible solution and prevention!"
Using this, I was able to flash SPL to 1.93.0000, which I assume came with the phone as I bought it only a few months ago. If anyone thinks I should go back to 1.56.0000, please let me know, as I now know how.
Thanks again for your help.

Screen stuck on red green blue and white

First of all please be gentle! I am a complete novice and this is my first post. I have a Touch Pro on a Vodafone contract. I downloaded the recent ROM software upgrade from the Vodafone web site and began the transfer to my phone having followed all the advice. However, the download got stuck at 12% and no matter how many times I start over again it will not go past that point. Worst still the phone is now locked on a red/green/blue/white screen with the message "Upgrade ROM code error Please try again". the error message on the Vodafone software download is No 302. I have tried Vodafone technical help but as I was due for a new phone anyway they have sent me a Touch Pro 2 but don't seem to want to help me resolving the problem with my "old" phone. It is only 5 months old (replacement insurance phone) and in good condition but useless if it can't be made to work.
Can anyone help with simple instructions on how to download a ROM that will work. If not does anyone want to make me an offer for the phone? Currently locked on Vodafone but I am sure you guys out there have the skill to resolve that one.
Many thanks,
Hollybeau
So, they aren't asking you to send it back, I take it? If that's the case, then the first thing I would try would be to flash with the stock rom, if you can find it (not the upgrade that quit on you). If that doesn't work, then just try to flash hard spl. If hard spl goes through ok, you're golden and can flash any raphael rom you want. If it doesn't, the phone is probably toast. You got a new one, so just use the old one as artwork.
Thanks Farmer Ted,
Unfortunately I do not know the orginal stock ROM. It is not on the Vodafone web site and the HTC site keeps telling me that all the likely candidates are "not suitable" ( I assume this is beacuse it is some sort of Vodafone variant). I am afraid that "flash hardspl" means nothing to me - I told you I was a novice! Can you direct me to what and where please.
What bugs me is that here is a phone worth £200? but for a problem caused by Vodafone's buggy software upgrade.
Hollybeau
Start Here.
Best way to find everything you want to know about flashing ROMs.
Lol.
Hard SPL is a bootloader that allows you to flash any rom you want (not just vodaphone). It also has over-write protection, so if you get into the situation you're currently in, the phone won't be bricked. If you can flash it (make sure you flash the gsm version in the raph rom forum), you are fine and dandy.
If you can't find the stock rom online, you may be able to flash the upgraded rom off of your sd card (I believe this will work with a stock rom and stock spl, but am not 100% sure). Re-name the .nbh image file to RAPHIMG.nbh. Format your sd card (1-2 gb works best) to FAT32, and put the image on the root of the card. Go into bootloader (well, you're already there, you may not need to) by holding volume down and soft resetting. Hold vol. down until the tri-color screen appears. At the prompt, press the power button, and let the flash run its course. Soft reset when it says that the update was a success. Let the phone boot up until it gets to the the alignment screen, the hard reset and boot it up.
If you don't have an .nbh file, and instead have a .exe file from vodaphone/htc, then you should be able to extract the contents with either winrar or 7-zip (google) to get at the .nbh image file. I've done this before, and it works fine.
Many thanks to all who have replied. I have fixed the problem. It turns out that it was the download to my PC that was at fault. I downloaded the Vodafone software to my lap top and ran it from there and it has recovered the phone. I now have a spare, and working, Touch Pro. I may try the HardSPL and other ROMS just to use the phone as a test bed. Alternatively, anyone out there want to make me an offer?

[Q] Warrany?

Hey, if I upgraded my hd2 to android (flashed the NAND ROM) but now I realized that Android won't even run b/c of a problem I have had from before, and I want to send it back and get a new one...
So, i flashed back to the original WM version I had before, I went to HSPL and flashed to the 2.000 ROM instead of the hspl...
Is my warranty voided now? Will they know I did all this?
and if it is can, what about insurance on the phone they offer to everyone (I actually took it) that should cover the phone even if it is dropped in a lake, right?
You can just revert back to stock some times just by flashing an official ROM or just following a simple unrooting process just search for your particular phone, as long as you make sure you do that, they won't know that you did anything to it.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Thanks, that's great!
Now can any one tell me what all im supposed to do to put the phone back the way it was (the way the warranty people want to see it)?
I found a guide about the Diamond somewhere on this website [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=537496], and also looked over some other guids, and I have some quick questions;
'stock ROM' is this the tmobile windows rom I had on before right?
The tutorial says when I flash the stock ROM that I should also have a new stock radio version, this is not the case with me I still have 2.15.50.40, can I download 'stock radio' from somewhere?
Also, what's the stock spl? How do I check that?
Sorry for all the newbie-ism in the questions;
Also sorry that it says warrany instead of warranty, something must be wrong with my keyboard.
Thanks for any answers
If your radio didn't change you can change it by flashing the original one just look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470306
Your stock ROM is wm 6.1, your stock spl is either 1.93 or 2.03 just check out here
