thanks guys!
here's an advice ...
READ, READ, READ ... all you can of those "sticky" threads at the top of the forum !!
don't touch anything until you are sure & comfortable with it ... you will brick your device if you don't know what you are doing !!

HARD SPL MEANS YOU HAVE TO TELL THE PHONE TO ACCEPT A ROM CHANGE THE SECURITY ON THE PHONE AND LOSE YOUR WARRENTY.
U NEED TO RE READ THE INFORMATION ON THE CHANGING ROM. IT VERY IMPORTANT UNDERSTAND AND GET IT RIGHT IF YOU GET IT WRONG YOU CAN BRICK YOUR PHONE.
HAVE YOU CHECKED THE WIKI IF YOU DONT FIND A ANSWER TRY THE SITE BELOW THE HAVE DOCUMENTATION ON CHANGING ROM
THIS SITE http://www.duttythroy.net/ THERE IS GOOD

UNFORTUNATELY, at this time, it will not turn on even on the bootloader. is there any way to fix my phone??? please help.. i hope there's still ways to fix my phone.. thanks in advance..
If you want help, you're better off asking the forum where the people who repair phones dweal. This is the developer sub forum. Most of us haven't really dealt with a phone breaking like that. Sorry I'm not much help.

hhmm ok.. thanks for replying.. uhm , but do you know where to contact them??? sorry for being ignorant.. just a newbie here...
In the Herald forum. You're in the Herald-Development forum. Wrong sub forum.
Thanks a bunch!!!

Sorry to ask but where to start?

Hi all,
I have just got a TD2 and must agree it is a very good device.
I have tried searching and looking through these forums for the posts but I am unable to locate them. I dont want to be spoon fed so if someone can point me to the post on flashing the device with a custom ROM it would be appriciated.
I know its a noob question but I have been looking for 3 days now, Dont worry im not flashing anything till I have read up hence why I havent just had a go without finding all the right info.
SO take this post as "Im a noob, where do I start" but I will do the reading etc myself just need a point in the right direction!
Ta!

[Completed] New to rooting, Cant flash the firmware

Hi guys. Im not going to lie, im a noob when it comes to rooting, so I turned here to ask for help. Now, let me explain my whole issue. Lets start with, i cant unlock my bootloader. I also cant get into flash mode on flashtool which would allow me to downgrade, and and then root my phone from there. So yeah, I cant do anything honestly. I would love it if someone would be kind enough to help me with a step by step instruction guide, or even live assistance?. I already google'd for about 2-3 hours now, and can't find anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated! @edit: I saw a mod (I think?) post on another thread and say that this isn't the right place to ask. Sorry about this! Im really new to this, but I would love some help!
