I tried flashing my device from WM6 Titanium2 to the 2.26 t-mobile official rom so that I could flash with a new rom, i'm trying to aim for the new TNT rom, any idea why i cant downgrade to an official? it says my rom version is 10.1.0.811 wwe, such a low number? any ideas on how to make this work? it went to recovery mode with the update util but it still recovered fine to my old OS, didnt go right to the colorful bootloader.
[edit] i turned my device off, held camera button and turned it on to bootloader mode, and ran the RUU and it worked, weird.. still curious as to why it wouldnt work the other way.
well i had the same issue once.
It was very strange but at the end it worked.

i have a g3 ipl/spl 2.26 completely unlocked device that i have flashed many wm6 roms on in the past. my touchscreen went dead in landscape mode so on a hunch i flashed back to wm5 to try and fix it (which it did). but now i flash the same TNT rom i've flashed a hundred times the same way and everything changes but the OS i tried the boring rom and it changed, but even from there it seems (now) that it's TNT that for some reason won't change the os. any ideas?
which WM5 ROM did you flash back to? was it the official t-mobile ROM?
if not I'd try that first...
if that doesn't work I'd actually take it through the unlocking process again and use that CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE ROM first...the up to t-mobile's offical ROM...then flash to TNT
i flashed back to the latest tmo rom. i'll give what you're talking about a try. as a test i flashed to that one and that's the first one to change the OS. this whole thing caught me by surprise that's for sure.
hope it works for ya...let me know...
update, problem solved! i was using the touchflo rom (love it) and i gave the Professional flavor without the touchflo a try and it worked. all is well.

hi,
i have the same problem here
what exactly do you mean with "take it through the unlocking process again" should i unlock the wizard again with the service tool (mine is already unlocked and i had 2 different versions of wm6 roms) or just flash the CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE ROM and then the t-mobile one?
p/s before flashing the tnt touchflo i flashed the t-mobile rom, and then while flashing the TNT touchflo i got error on 99%. After that the wizard boots only in boot manager and i can only flash t-mobile rom, the other roms i have tested give back errors (i have not tested the CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE ROM)
Thanks!!!
Regards
i grabbed the latest lokiwiz and used one of the forum stickies as a guide and relocked it and then followed step by step to unlock again. i can't confirm or deny that solved the problem, but it's worth a shot.
Hi,
I followed this guide for rooting and JF'ing my G1: http://www.androidandme.com/2009/05...r-rooting-your-android-g1-to-install-cupcake/
Everything worked fine but I cannot for the life of me get the radio to update.
It's stuck on Baseband: 62.33.20.08H_1.22.12.29
I downloaded the HTC radio update, renamed it to update.zip and followed to install procedure (home+power, alt-s).
I have tried wiping the phone beforehand etc. as well, but doesn't seem to make a difference.
It does not show any errors or anything, and seems to complete successfully, but the baseband never gets updated.
Is there something else I can try?
Thanks
If I were you, my next step would be to reflash jf.
Also, did you install the new radio update before jf 1.5? I heard that was the right way to do it.
I've tried reflashing to 1.0, reflashing radio back to original, then updating radio, updating OS - radio version still stuck on the same :/
is the official radio update signed with testkeys or "official" key?
i got my update package from haykuro's site and it worked fine.
you could also try reflashing the recovery image as suggested in the steps to get root, then update the radio image again. also remember to press home+back and wait till the phone reboots itself.
What's the radio package you're using? (Link/filename)
If it's not http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/ota-radio-2_22_19_26I.zip, then it's the wrong one.
>>If it's not http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecod..._22_19_26I.zip, then it's the wrong one.
This is the radio package I'm using.

Have reflashed back to original firmware (removing root and hardspl), then tried RC7->RC8 upgrade (radio is not updated) and then OTA update to Android 1.5.. again the radio isn't updated.
I have also tried keeping the phone rooted, and manually updating to stock android 1.5.. again radio isn't updated..
I'm all out of ideas?!
It's starting to sound like you've got a bad EEPROM to me. Does it go through all the normal steps? It should unpack the update, prompt you for a reboot, show a pic of a chip with an arrow pointing to it, and finally reboot again. No errors reported?
Hi,
Thanks for your response.
You're right - it goes through the entire procedure 'successfully,' i.e. it reports no errors and prompts for reboot, then does another reboot cycle after the 'unpacking' logo.
Just for everyones benefit:
Got the handset replaced - must have been a bad EEPROM as mikedmayer suggested.
I'm glad you were able to do that. What did you tell T-mobile? I can just imagine the blank look on the cust-serv's face when you try to tell them you think it's got a bad EEPROM because when you try to flash the radio it wouldn't take. Either that or them asking you why you're trying to flash your own radio.
Current Setup :
HardSPL (latest, 3.56 I believe)
Radio: 1.65.29.22 (from Niki or Neon, almost positive it was Niki)
Solace v3.1
Decided I wanted to go back to newest radio, attempted to flash to it; hit a snag at about 78%. Progress didn't update for a while, then to 100%. Update app said there was a flash error, and it did not complete correctly. Device restarted, stuck at bootloader. Re-attempted the flash, same result.
Next, I tried flashing AT&T's latest ROM. Stalled at about 76%, message about having a communication error, walked through the apps troubleshooting steps; it tried (and failed) again.
Tried the latest HTC direct ROM, same result.
Tried to flash the latest HTC via MicroSD card, got 20(ish) percent through, the Radio line then went red and said "RSA Failure". Then that whole process died on me as well.
The only way I can get my device back up to run MTTY to remove the RUU flag. When issuing the "task 8" command to format, it instead reboots the phone. The phone will come up normally after that.
Since I got it back up, I have tried flashing once again, and am getting the same result. Am I just stuck here now?
It's not that I don't like this ROM, I'm just wanting to update the radio. Any ideas what else I might be able to try?
Try using the search function next time before you create a new thread.
If you would tryed you could find this post
Yes, thank you...except that I started my thread saying that the proposed solution was exactly what CAUSED the problem to begin with. I tried to flash to the 1.70.x radio, which is where I got the flash write error.
Anyone else?
Now that you can get it up normally, have you tried going to a stock HTC ROM first, then the new ROM, then the radio? Or HTC, radio, new ROM? I'd probably do it the second way. You said you tried flashing stock before getting it up again, and that you tried flashing after getting it back up, but you didn't state what you've tried flashing after getting it back up.
Since I've gotten it back up, I've tried both OEM and radio only. Both have the same result.
Really at a loss now as to what to try next.
Did you try the 3.29Hard2 SPL? I haven't encountered your issue and wish I could be mroe help here. My only thoughts would be to try a different SPL, or perhaps looking into the ForceUSB issue. Best of luck.
I have been trying to get 3VO back on my Dash 3G and I can't seem to do it.
I first loaded the original 1.17 SPL successfully but after that the T-Mobile 6.5 would get stuck on the "Stick Together" splash screen. (This might come obvious to some of you guys that are more experienced). So, since I was back to 1.17 I tried going into bootloader and then running the HardSPL 1.17 (Through the RomUpdateUtility.exe, not the Auto 1.17.bat) but it never advanced past 0%. So I tried loading 3VO with the non-HardSPL 1.17 and it still didn't advance past 0%.
So I gave up, and loaded T-Mobile 6.5 like I originally did, which this is how it goes, I don't know if this is relevant but:
1. Make sure I have a non-HardSPL.
2. Go into bootloader mode, then start the flash.
3. After the flash fails at 16%, make sure the flash actually updated the SPL to 1.26
4. Start flash again, it doesn't freeze at 16% again, and it finishes successfully.
So, any steps I should take to get 3VO back on my Dash 3G?
T-Mobile 6.5 Upgrade
Has anyone else had a problem trying to upgrade to the official T-Mobile 6.5? I cannot seem to get past 27%. I actually have not had a problem going back to 3VO but I would like to see if the T-mobile version will have the same features. The 3VO has the My Faves but it is buggy. Ideas? How can I get this silly thing to load?
I have hard reset, soft reset, gone through the 'recovery' but cannot get past 27%. I can downgrade to 6.1 with ease, I can install 3VO with no problem, just cannot do the official version (tried on my Windows 7 computer, my alternate XP Pro computer - same result.)
Update: T-Mobile's tech support is sending a new Dash to me. I really don't think this is the solution needed but, well, guess it isn't too bad to get a new phone. By the way, when I downgrade to 6.1 the spl downgrades to 1.17 from 1.19. If I read the info correctly, that doesn't seem to be the problem.
recovery
you have to use the original spl which will put it back to like 1.17 or 1.25 cant remember then flash to the original stock rom
Hi,
Alright, im totally new to this; I'm trying to run Android on my HD2...
So, All guides I found kind of talked about the same things:
1, Flash phone with HSPL3
2. Flash phone with Radio 2.15.50.40
3. Flash magldr v.1.13
4. Download a NAND ROM -- I was first trying with Cope's Cyanogen Rom, kept getting stuck on GO GO GO! (in magldr) after a while I actually got it to work, but couldn't get data to work, the first time I restarted the phone it got stuck again....
Then I flashed official tmobile wm, got rid of magldr, and started all over, but this time I tried flashing MDJ's Cyanogen Rom, however after resolving several previous issues i got stuck on GO GO GO! again...
also, I have tried with both magldr v 1.11 and 1.13
-------------------
Is there something wrong with the previous steps I took? Any suggestions?
There is another thing that was always wrong with my phone which might be causing this problem; ever since I got it it would sometimes get stuck on the first purple "stay together" screen and not want to move... Even after I restart the screen would persist, and the only solution was to let it 'chill' for a while before attempting to turn on again...[It got stuck even when I flashed the wm to get rid of mangldr]
So any suggestions on how could I get Android running ???
Thanks
Never mind....
It seems to have fixed itself!!! THIS IS GREAT!!! Skyfire, one bus away!!!!
Thanks to all for this awsome forum and for the great roms!!!!
