Hello,
i have a brand new o2 XDA Touch pro. After trying (unsuccessfully) to remove the CID to flash the original HTC Firmware (the O2 Firmware was lame), the XDA went off and is completly dead now. The last thing I was able to see was a strange display behaing (some strange look and fading off).
The phone does not react on pressing the Power-On Button! No reaction!
Can anyone help me or has anyone a hint how to hard-reset the device?!
So far I remember there was a trick by removing the battery for about 24 hours (this worked for my older xda mini s phone). May this work for this phone, too?
Please help me!!!
Best regards
Gabriel
Did you try the old tric to remove the battery and then put it back in? When you do the Hard-SPL it would remove the CID lock. It would seem to go dead and unresponsive as happened with mine. I just removed the battery and put it back in and it powered up fine. Checked the tri-colour boot screen to make sure it was done. It is in the thread for flashing your first ROM.
Hello wildcard,
thanks for your reply.
I already tried removing the battery. Yesterday I tried for about an our and completly off power (no USB Power or PC connected). Still no reaction after trying to power on with battery plugged.
I'll give it another try in about a few hours after leaving the phone powered off about 12 hours. So far the phone seems completly dead! I would be glad even to see any light / display going on with try-color mode, but anything keeps powered off after battery connected and giving the power-on button a try.
Best regards
Gabriel
UPDATE:
Phone still completly dead / no-power on possible after 12 hours power-off / no battery!
Tried several key-combinations for soft+/hard reset with battery and/or USB-Power even with plugging in while pressing the keys including power-on. NO Reaction
How can this be??? May it only be possible to send it in to O2?
I was unable to complete any CID unlock / HTC Firmware update on the O2 device. They stuck always on 0% or failed before this step and until that time the phone always rebooted into WM6 after battery removal. So I don't think O2 could blame me for doing anything wrong... and I don't understand why there is not even Power for Bootloader mode possible. I don't think that any software could harm the hardware in such a way that not even power-on is possible??!
Any ideas of developers to reanimate the phone? I will try keep power of for a few days now until I go to O2 with the phone...last try. For a XDA Mini S i owned once (that phone has been unlocked too), this worked once it had a similar failure... maybe I have luck in 2-3 days with my TouchPro phone.
Best regards

I am thinking that you may really need to send it in to O2. Might be your best bet, let's hope some one more ducarted than I am chimes in.

Hello ppl,
since 2 days I've got a big problem with my Polas (at all XDA Orbit 2)
Ok first the bad story. My device did take a little shower and had water in it, which seems to be dried out now.
First, you all should think there is nothing to rescue here anymore.
BUT after the first problems (i will tell you some lines below), later on my device got working again. It worked for nearly a whole day.
And then the same problems as before came back again and now I'm stuck on it.
Here is the scenario:
- Without Power Plug: I turn on the device. It boots up as always. When boot is finished and coming to Windows Mobile, the device tells me "low power" and shuts off directly
- With Power Plug: I turn on the device. Showing the o2 Splash Screen. And that's it. Not even the ROM Version Numbers are showing up. When I take out the Plug after a while, XDA just turns off. Oh and the orange LED is lightened.
I can also plug it in while the XDA is off and it shows the orange LED, so you should think it's getting power.
But it doesn't when I try it afterwards without the Plug.
When I boot up without the plug, and plug it in after the Splash Screen, it's the same behaviour as on the scenario "Without Power Plug", it doesn't recognize that the plug is in or is not getting power I don't know.
So why was it working for one day? I don't get it!
You think that maybe only the battery is damaged? But why was it working?
I hope this text is not too confusing and maybe somebody is able to help.
I'm dying without my lovely device.
Oh and yes, i did try a hard reset.
I think the biggest problem for me is, that the device doesn't boot when the plug is in. That is totally weird from my perspective.
Thanks in advance!

Weird! I am able to flash the ROM. But still the same ;( What the hell?
While flashing the ROM there was no sign of a not working battery.
I'm confused!
Update: Re-Flashed O2 Rom and also tried udK Diamond. Flash is always successful but behaviour doesn't change or get fixed ;(( This can't be true.
Well one question... when the version numbers show up on the Splash Screen what is the "G"-Number? It looks a bit weird, "25.69.30.05H"
Maybe that part of the ROM is down?

I had this problem too, so did some other guys, Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381442
Don't know how/if others managed to solve it but in my case only the replacement of my motherboard (under warranty) solved it.

Thanks for the link. Will check it out. As there is no more sign of water damage on my device, i hope i can use the warranty too.
hello everybody.i have a problem with my spv c600.i bought it few days ago.i had installed some apps on it and next morning my phone was off,althought the battery was full.i made hard reset for three times and the phone started.but this is happening every morning from then.and now i can`t make hard reset.after it asks me to press 0 key shows orange screen and after that turns off.sometimes shows the windows mobile screen but only that and turns off.i don`t understand what is the problem...is it software or hardware problem?
can someone tell me what can i do?i want my phone back...i like it to much
sorry for my bad english
i`m not sure if i posted to the correct section but no one can`t help me?
Try to enter Bootloader (hold camera button and shortly hold Power).
After Bootloader started, you need reflash official ROM.
it enters in bootloader but it stays only 3 seconds and after that turns off.i`m going crazy....i don`t know what to do...is it the battery the problem?but last time when it worked the battery was full
other ideas?
try other battery, or try turn on without battery only power cable plugin.
the same thing without baterry.it stays 3-4 second and after that turns off.which is the problem?
and i don`t understand what is with the led colour.when i put the phone to charger the light is red...i try to make hard reset but the phone turns off and and one cuple of times...the led color becomes orange and green sometimes...
so?what is going on?
can someone help me please?
I think that it is hardware problem. Before am I bought my HTC Tornado, I had Sony Ericsson P900 and after 2 years using suddenly he after power on he stopped at the introductory animation. So I gave it to the service and told me that is it a problem with the motherboard. Your SPV C600 looks that is on it similar.
and what happend with your tornado?
With my Tornado nothing. The hardware problem was in my Sony Ericsson P900. In service told me that is it a problem with the motherboard and that the correction would cost cca 850$ . So I declined correction and bought HTC Tornado, which still works .
oh..thanks anyway.i think i will go to service with my spv...
wow it didn`t started for 2 days and now is working like is new.i don`t understand...where is the problem?
it worked only 2 hours and after that it was dead again
what can i do to fix this problem.it`s ok to change the rom?
fixed.i sold the phone
Hello.
I've got an MDA Vario IV, and I've tried to Update the Windows Mobile version from 6.1 ti 6.5. I've connected the phone via USB and the Update get started. On the display appears the boot loader with that colors, and after a few minutes on my computer display give's me an "Connection Error". The phone was so hot so I've removed the battery. The Phone was turned off and never come's alive. I've tried the Reset button, but no action. I can not power on my phone So please help me someone, I'm bagging You.
Welcome to forums
have a deep read here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Raphael
Good luck,
Thank You...
I've got no help with this. If my phone doesn't even Power On
is it coming back to bootloader? Did you try low volume button+Reset? Dont panic, it happens sometimes, try to charge the phone in normal way see if that works, I dont think so its anyway more than a software problem.
Let us know & keep following the WIKI. Good Luck.
No it isn't coming back to boot-loader. I've also tried the Reset with the other buttons but it doesn't worked. Some guys told me that I have to disassemble the phone and connect on the motherboard six pin with a J-tag cable and than is should connect to the computer to rewrite the prom and that re-soft the Windows Mobile.
I wudn't suggest you to do that. Dont you have warranty? If you dont have we can do some other thing, did you keep battery off from phone for few days?
No, I've got no warranty any more. No,I didn't tried to remove the battery for a few days, but I think that maybe is empty because I didn't connected to USB or charger for a few days. When I tried to power on the phone the battery was certainly full, I'm sour of that. And some people told me that the phones with Windows Mobile can not be charged to USB if is really empty, it should be charged by charger, but it doesn't work like that. Any ideas? I really appreciate your involvement, so thanks.
Hi everyone.
I am very confused on my Htc Hd2. Yesteday I was trying to update the rom on my phone and it succeeded.. but when I tried to connect it to my pc it restarted and just startet vibrating constantly. Now everytime I put the battery in the phone, it just starts to vibrate constantly untill I take the battery out again. I can't do anything. it won't boot, won't enter bootloader, nothing! Is the phone dead or what? Could it be the battery?
Please help me!
Best regards
You ever get an answer to this? I just tried to flash the stock rom via the RUU to reset the phone state, and it failed and now I keep getting this also.
Anyone know?
I'm no expert on the HD2, but can you power it up with just the USB cable and no battery?
Sent from my HTC Liberty S using a finger
hi,
i have the same issue.
a friend of mine gave me a HD2 today so i could play around with it.
I have done anything to it but as soon as i put the battery in.... it vibrates nonstop.
sometimes it flashes the led then vibrates nonstop.
any ideas ? is it bricked ?
i tried to start it with no battery but nothing, no.
please help guys
cheers
did u manage to resolve it guys? cause i get the same thing
i wonder if there's any chance by pin method,,, like at the toshiba tg01
anyone? pls
I have an idea this happened to my HD 2 once it turns out the problem was one if the pins which connects the battery was sticking out so i just pushed it back and it resolved the problem if that doesn't work try a hard resetto do this hold both the volume up and down buttons and hold the power button if this doesn't work then I'm afraid there's nothing i can do to help.
Best wishes
Kyle

Hello to all.
I tried to find an answer for my troubles here by a few hours but unfortunatelly i didnt. So I wonder to find help here thanks to XDA specimens society.
Problem symptoms
1 I bought One mini in USA. Seller provided a photo with bootloader screen which I attach below.
2 When received device, it didnt boot up at all. Only a HTC logo appeared at white background and screen began black.
Than when I press a power button, a touch buttons under screen flash 10 times and stop. Again press of power button gives one short vibration and nothing later happens.
I noticed that alu cover at down side (battery area) becomes warm and it is working till battery power goes to 0%
3 When "working", mobile is detected by Windows system connected by usb. It show mass storage, modem and not recognized device.
4 Also it shows a battery charging animation if power button was not pressed before and battery is charged from 0%.
After a two weeks in my desk it still shows 99% what means that battery is mint condition and mobile is not working when not powered on before.
Serviceman said that I have broken bootloader and it should be repaired.
Finally I found out that I can install a new ROM.
So I downloaded a
drivers (recommended here at another article)
TWRP recovery file 2 7 0 5 m4kk
customized Rom by CodenameLungo version CM 11
What I should do now? What tools install? How to putt all these into phone memory if I have not acces to bootloader screen?
If you know article which solve my problem than I will be thankfull for a link.
I know that for most of you these questions are stupid but I m not a pro and will be thankfull for a little help
THX in advance for all who will try to help me.

Do you know how to enter bootloader? When the phone is off, you hold the Volume Down Button and the power button until phone boots up (several seconds). If you can access bootloader this way, we have a chance to help you out.
Yes I read about this method. Unfortunatelly it didnt work. Or i tried power+vol up.
Today I visited another specialist and left it for diagnostic purposes. They suppose that bootloader is damaged and should be reconstructed (if I can name it this way).
They were listening to me carefully before said that wold try to connect it with computer.
I hope they know what to do. Will call them on Friday and post here what s going on in their opinion.

OK. Good luck with it.
Bootloader was reconstructed and now it is running to the boot menu. But serviceman has a problem with flashing ROM. He said that during instalation system cant rebuild certificate and all proces fails at 3%.
May anyone point me any link with instructions what should be done at this situation? We have a deal that on Monday i take mobile back, even if rom will not be flashed correctly...
He confirmed that this phone comes from ATT broadband and is not sure if that change anything or not.
Also suggest that previous owner tried to modify ROM by himself and thats why bootloader was damaged...
