If it's a ROM you cooked yourself then it's too large to fit. Otherwise, not sure.

What ROM are you trying to flash?

update it with the wizard love ROM and then use shell tool to get the OS u want from any ROM.

I'm gonna say this just to cover all the bases..I'm not sure how long you are waiting but a standard flash can stay at 99% for a LONG time before finally finishing the flash...when they say the flash should take around 10 minutes they are not kidding so I hope you are not just getting impatient.

I have tried all roms, they all have the same problem!

Just wait for it, it stays at 99% for 5 mins sometimes.

it says failed to complete then it shows some recovery.

I have just done this now and after I finished the shelltool, I did a hard reset and it stayed on the flash screen of Wizard Love..
I am unsure on how to do a hard reset for the HTC Wizard. Anybody help me?

hold down the record button and comand button at the same time then reset using the stylus (while holding the buttons) then a black screen will appear asking you to press call button to hard reset
for more details you have to visit wiki

It sounds to me like you didnt do much reading before diving into this whole process. If you have a CID locked g4, you will never be able to flash a custom rom with ruu method untill unlocking it.
Should you use shelltool then you will need to wait untill it says it is finished(read all instructions before attempting. They will tell you everything you need to know) If shell tool never gives you the complete message then just let it sit for about half an hour to be safe and then just HARD RESET, NOT SOFT RESET by holding comm manager, voice button and using stylus to reset with the little pin hole.
If you read everythign there is to know about the process and all possibilities, then you will have no problem.
Just read read read... This website is like the rom flashers bible. Everything you need to know is all here. You just have to find it and read it.

stuck in bootloader - HELP !!!!

Ok - So I have a mde very noobish error. I have in the past flashed my Kaise to a number of cooked ROMs but had recently just got hold a replacement handset from T-Mobile UK.
I was inteding to load Duttys new WM6.1 ROM and so ran JumpSPL from my phone but then proceeded to flash duttys ROm without flashing HardSPL first !!!
The ROM loaded but now my phone is stuck in the bootloader and whatever I do - I cant get by it or flash any other ROM or anything.
Whatever I try I either get Error 262 or 292 (I think) which is invalid Vendor Id. I have searched but cant find a solution.
Please help me !!!!

I have tried a hard reset (power + camera keys) but nothing - the phone still boots to the tri-color bootloader screen.
anything else I can do? I'm really starting to get worried...

hey jockyw2001
I have tried a hard reset but even after doing it - the phone STILL insists on booting into the tri-color bootloader screen.
I definitely was not ignoring your advice as you were the first person kind enough to respond with a possiblt solution to my problem. Unfortunately, didnt work.
Also, I have found that if I try to re-flash the original ROM I get an INvALID VENDOR ID message - obviously down to the fact I dont have HardSPL flashed. I cant flash HardSPL either.
Do you have any other ideas/suggestions I can try please?
UPDATE: Sorry, I think I was looking at the wrong post - what is MTTY and where can I get it please?

I get to 0% when flashing then hangs

When flashing a ROM on my 8925, I get to the point where it looks like it is about to load, but it stays at 0% and goes nowhere. I tried looking for a fix, but only found the White screen of death which is different from my problem.
Please HELP!
Thanks!

Try flashing in bootloader.
Hold down Power button + Camera Button + insert stylus into reset.
Flash away.

Do you see the upload meter on your PC or on both PC and Phone? If only on the PC, then you might not have the HardSPL flashed or installed, which you would need to do first before you can flash to a new ROM. If you see the load meter on both screens, phone and PC and it hangs, then do what Alltheway suggested.

I tried that too. I have no problem getting to where it is about to load. It just won't load and stays at 0%.

I get 0% on both PDA and PC.

OK... Turn off your Fire wall and pause your Anti Virus program until the program loads to 100%.

Once more... Did you install the HardSPL?
Go here first if you have not installed the CID unlocker ( HardSPL)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679

I tried loading HardSPL. I get the same problem when trying to load HardSPL. 0% progress. I'll try stopping my antivirus to see if that fixes things. I also have an 8525 in which I'm able to flash ROMs with no problems on the same computer. I suspect it is something with my 8925.

No it is not... The Qualcom processor behaves differently than the Samsung. So the loading environment one processor accepts is not necessary a common denominator.
Disable your Firewall and your AntiVirus and start fresh. Please read the HardSPL ( CID Unlocking) procedure carefully.

Thanks for clarifying that asfoor! I'll give it a try.

OK, I deinstalled my virus protection and turned off my firewall and still I get up to the point that a ROM (even for hardSPL) is about to load and nothing happens.

I did a hard reset and it looks like it cleared the problem. I was able to flash the hardSPL...Thanks everyone!

HardSPL is NOT the same as Hard Reset ! Please read the thread on Unlocking your CID.

You definitely have a Anti-Virus program that is conflicting with the install. I would try the install on another machine, then see if you get the same issue.

... lol ... Yeah, I know. I know what I'm doing. Im not a rookie. I've been flashing phones for like 2 years now. I was saying that I've even hard reset'd the phone and tried on a fresh hard reset. To no avail.

[Q] Totally messed up my phone after attempting to get root.

I just tried to use this method on my Inspire today and there was an error when flashing back to the stock AT&T ROM after gaining S-OFF and root. When I try to start up the phone normally, it gets stuck on the HTC screen. When I try to boot into recovery, it just shows a black screen while the LED is green.
Anybody know what I can do to fix my phone?

Sorry your link doesn't seem to work.

If you press the down volume and hold power can you get to hboot?

Try using bubby's tool to fix the CWM black screen. Its under the fixes link.

I can't seem to access any sort of recovery or hboot. Holding down both volume buttons and turning the phone on will result in the black screen with green LED. Holding the down volume button and turning the phone on does nothing.

Sorry go to Bubbys super one step and search for CWM black screen....

If it helps, the phone vibrates 5 times then shows a black screen.

Well I was able to get into HBOOT but when I tried to go into recovery, the screen would just turn black.

You need to get the stock rooted PD98IMG.zip into the root of your sd card. Then go to hboot and let the phone find it. Follow on screen instructions. Note the progress bar will be vertical on upper right. I bet that fixes you up on getting the phone working. Black screen on cwm is a whole nother issue. One that I share. I think I'm going to revert to stock unrooted and then our attn1 hack kit.

There is a solution you can eng s-off, but I would not advise this there is no need to eng s-off your phone.
The simplest way though it may take longer is to, revert to stock and reroot and s-off with the hack kit.
This is a very common problem with the one click. To be honest there is a thread made just like this twice a day.

Thanks for all the help everyone. I managed to fix everything on my phone. I just flashed the rooted AT&T stock ROM with HBOOT and then used the one-click ENG S-OFF method to fix the black screen on CWM. Now running CM7 perfectly. I'm glad I no longer have to send it back to AT&T.

kinder gentler XDA i guess. Last year posts like these would have been flamed right off the board. Thats not a bad thing, but new people are wasting everyones F'ing time with these posts.
RTFM! w/e it is you decide to do , how about looking for help in the dam thread you downloaded the stuff from? I duno maybe we have a bunch of people brand new to Forums or something.

Ok I don't mean to thread jack, I just didn't want to start a new thread for this. I've been running the Coredroid Rom since I first rooted my phone. I have never had any problems with my phone even when trying out other roms. Today I tried installing the new Coredroid 5.0. It all went well as usual except this time on the last step of the setup wizard, it said something like "setup has stopped working unexpectedly and will notify HTC" and only let me press ok to force close.
After that happened all I couldn't even go to my home screen. I then tried restarting my phone but got stuck on the Coredroid rotating logo. Only way out of that was to pull the battery cover. Tried going into recovery mode but the screen would just be black and I would have the orange light flashing. That didn't work so I tried restarting again. Again just got stuck on the spinning logo.....This is where **** gets weird. I began to receive a call while on the logo and that allowed me to answer thus leaving the spinning logo. I still could not go to my home screen. I could only use the drop down notifications menu. I restarted my phone again so I could call myself while on the logo and again it got me unstuck from the logo. Only way to fix every thing was to use the search option and run Rom Manager and recover from my previous back up.
So I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else? I always fallow instructions and hardly ever have any problems but this was just odd. I felt like I had to solve riddles in order to get my phone working again.

See if you can boot to bootloader by means of ADB (adb reboot bootloader). If so reflash the stock rooted rom then reload CWM. You might need to Eng-S off if you have a corrupt file / bootloader? When done reflash CorDroid 5.0 (What I am running by the way)....

black htc screen
I tried to root my phone like an idiot because I dont know anything about this stuff and I got a black htc screen and i cant do anything. HELP!!

I see a lot of motivation in this and other threads to leave well-enough alone. Going to leave mine unrooted-stock.
I just had an excellent session of Google Nav where it performed exemplary. My phone does all I need and remains within the rules as the OEM wants it.

Bricked, trying to fix, but running into problems.

So long story short, I tried to do something I probably shouldn't have, and now my phone wont boot. It does the boot screen, and then to a black screen where the screen is active, and if I touch it, the buttons light up. I can get into a recovery screen with vol- and 3D button, but it says "can't mount cache recovery log" with whatever I press. I've tried following the guide here, but I get to where I start updating, and the program just stops responding. Been trying different things for a few hours now. Every search I find says that it is solvable, but at the same time, I can't seem to solve it.
Any info I'm missing? Getting reckless here. I guess I deserve it for what I've gotten myself into. Anything is appreciated!

Find dark lestats guide and do the volume plus up and connect it to your pc and flash a kdz.. After you flash kdz start it in recovery wipe everything and your sorted...

This is my problem... I can't seem to get the guide working. I get to where the KDZ should install, but then the program stops responding, and says it can't find device. Is it because I'm not putting it in download mode right?

Doing more research now... If I'm running v20c, what kind of roms can I flash? It seems like there aren't any at all. Or does it matter what roms I flash in relation to what version I currently have? It's all a learning experience for me lol.

You can flash any roms on any basebands.. but you cannot mix gingerbread roms with froyo basebands its a no go lol..

Okay, well that makes more sense. I assume it works as whatever rom you flash, the baseband you have is what it uses?
