I have a jamin i-mate and I have had to do a hard restart, ever since i have found that sometimes when my phone screen turns off it wont turn on (even with the power button) and my whole phone does a full reboot, I am running WM5, it has been suggested to me by a friend that i run a rom update. I am currently running rom version 2.13.9.23 WWE, dated 2/23/06.
I have heard the great risks of updating the rom and would like some advice on a rom that works and how to install it.

First it was spl 3.8. Was having trouble but could still work with the phone. Suddenly I became flashoholic. Just the same way as I flashed 50 times before, I was flashing. It all went ok. After that I'm stuck at the splash screen. Says, Format Failed. But can get into bootloader and flash roms. But that's all. No booting business.
Guess this is the end of the road, unless there is any solutiion. Any one out there?
IPL 2.20.001
SPL 3.08.001
Radio 2.47.21
OS 4.0.0.0.6 (was)
Now the mobiz step 1
i think i'm having a similiar problem with u..
flashed to SPL2.20. Everything ok..
after a few flashes, only thing i get now is the bootloader screen..
i can flash ROMs, RUU tells me its successful, but PDA just restarts and goes back to bootloader
Waaah :'( I have a most similar problem I was running pdaviet 4.0.0.6 Touch for almost 2 weeks now without a single glitch.. the phone fell on my carpet and went to bootloader screen and eversince then it has never recovered I tried a hard reset it didn't work when I was pressing the send button it did nothing I did some forum searches and tried putting back the nvid RUU and it said that the update was succesfull and the progress bar on the phone moved accordingly but it went back to the bootloader screen ... then I tried pdaviet temp rom that was in the package still no go I can tell it works somehow because the USB lights up in the bottom left when I plug the usb cable and the progress bar that moves, but I'm getting desperate IPL and SPL info is in my sig...
I can go into bootloader, flash any wm5 roms without IPL SPL. But that is all. Unless we can find a way to unlock the cid and flashback the original dopod rom, we are stuck.
anyone??? I cant use my phone at all now :'( and I didn't even re-flash it... all was working fine I just DROPPED it on a CARPET no real shock and since then it's on the bootloader screen
In my oppinion you have to send it for repair... I think it's really a phisical damage...
really no progress..
i opened a thread in the WM6 area also...
seems to be stucked at bootloader no matter what i do..
tried every single ROM, tried reflashing radio rom, tried reflashing ipl/spl, tried every RUU available..
when u guys hard reset, does it say Format is Failed ?
ice_mouton, i'm something like you.. dropped it few weeks ago.. but it still ran fine.. upgraded to PDAVIET's 4.0.0.0.6 Touch.. had no problems for the first few days of use... suddenly it refused to reset and was stuck at vendor boot screen...
Hi all,
my first post, am helpless with very specific problem, tried hard all night and read many threads...
After failed rom/radio update (abborded as error 114 when starting update at 0%), device got stuck in bootloader.
Found out I can only reboot device by shortly opening and closing the battery cover. Thereafter press ON-button --> reboot --> the usual T-Mobile software installs --> automatically initiated softreset again ends up in bootloader.
Only way is to take off the batt. cover again right before T-Mobile software installation. Device then works without T-Mobile Software and ROM is accessible. But still every softreset leads to bootloader screen, also the softreset after running a SpriteBackup-File etc.
Tried every ROM-Update (and even downgrades) I could find (http://www.inntalinfo.de/apboard/thread.php?id=3373), especially "MDA compact_TMDE_11301_129_11200_Ship.exe" from t-mobile.de again and again with device nicely connected to PC via ActiveSync before. Updates never exceed 0%... --> allways error 114
Do I use rong updates or is something wrong with the softreset function?? Please, how can I solve this?
MDA compact, T-Mobile
R 1.123.00
G 1337.42
D 1.13.01 GER
bootloaderscreen says v1.02
this happened to me 2 m8... glad i'm not alone... i'm just about to upgrade the rom, i think it'll work... did you do the first upgrade, the one that f-ed it up, under vista?
I had radio 1.27.15.32 on my Phone with Dutty's DualTouch V4...
I wanted to try out Alex's v5 AT&T Rom... so I reflashed the radio on my phone to 1.27.14.09 it flashed successful, but now the phone hangs on the HTC Boot Logo Splash screen.
I noticed it does a pattern vibration, short-long, short-long, short-long.
Anyone got an idea on whats going on, and how I can fix it!
Edit: Did a hard reset, booted up to the os the first time, and I reset before customizations. Waiting to see if it boots up again.
Edit 2: It seems something is up with the video drivers. Because it stays hung at the htc screen, but active-sync can connect to it, hopefully, I can push the rom across, gotta wait a min, battery drained down to like 49%...
Edit 3: I was able to flash the rom... it appears that perhaps more than just the sound driver is stored in the radio...
Everything is back to normal...
Thanks,
Rich
here is the deal guys....i have a wizard and i have flashed different roms...the problem is that somethin happened probably and every time i flash a rom, format me device....from the beginning the volume from its own goes on vibration.if i try to turn the volume on and than turn off and then on the screen only it goes in vibro again....does anybody know anything....thanks a zillion
it is highly recommended to flash original rom before flashing a custom rom
well i had same problem when i had amp rom what i did was go back to original imate kjam rom then flashed tnt rom
now working well...
My TP2 (Sprint) battery went too low and turned off. After charging the battery, the phone just comes up to the Sprint splash screen (Yellow Sprint Symbol) and gives a little vibrate and reboots again. This goes on continuously till I pull the battery . I on am Stock Sprint WM6.1
I can enter into the bootloader screen. I have tried
1. Task 29s
2. Flashed a different radio.
3. Reflashed Stock 6.1 ROM again.
4. Hard Reset it a couple of times
My phone is HSPL unlocked in that I see *olinex 1.0 when I go into the bootloader.
I have tried flasing ROMS from both the SD card as well as from the PC. I cannot go past the green Win 6.1 screen .
I am out of ideas and would really appreciate it if anyone saw this signature previously or has any ideas as to how to solve this.
TIA

You could try re-locking the phone, installing the stock 6.5 rom, and then unlocking the phone again.
Also be sure to give it lots of time during the first boot (like do the install, and then leave to make dinner or something). There have been days where I though the phone had locked up, only to have it finish booting when I was about to pull the battery.

Wizard,
I ma noob and was wondering the need for relocking. Does it have any benefits as opposed to simply flashing WM 6.5 on to the phone. I have flashed WM 6.5 onto the phone and it goes all the way to the Orange screen(Preparing for activation or something like that with the progress bar) and then reboots again endlessly.
My hesitancy with re-locking comes from the fact that to unlock you need to be in a position to active sync and if the flash fails after the relock ,I might not be in a position to unlock again.

In rare cases re-locking and then re-unlocking resolves rom loading issues.

As your phone does not boot, I don't see why you are worried about it. You have nothing to lose. Your phone does not work now at all.
You can always flash a stock rom to a locked phone anyway. The only tool that would rule out is the task 29, and you already said that didn't work.
Either way I would try to load the stock wm 6.5 rom, and give it a very long time to finish loading before doing anything else first.
I have to echo WizardKnight's advice here... It seems crazy, but it fixed one of my dead TP2's. It wouldn't boot past the first white HTC screen, I never even got the OS screens to load...
I tried literally everything I could think of... for some reason relocking it revived it...
