Recently I got my Fuze in the mail and I wanted to try out some of the roms here at xda devs.
I played around with NATF winmo 6.1 rom and it was nice but soon after I wanted to try RRE's version of 6.5 I followed all the directions for flashing the rom to sd card. but after the flashing I noticed that the old boot splash screen from NATF's win mo 6.1 was still there and I wanted to know how do i fix that.
I was not too sure how to word this or search for it in that matter but any help would be greatly appreciated
Might try reflashing, then, when you see the screen "tap to set up your screen" (where you press the + on the screen in the middle & corners), do a HARD RESET. hold down volume down, press the center "ok" key, the one inside the ring of light, press the reset button on the bottom of the phone, release the reset button BUT CONTINUE to hold the volume down, ok button til the screen comes up, follow the directions (tells you to press the volume UP key). Let it load, and see if that fixes it.
Tried that no luck
It's kinda weird you would think that after flashing a rom everything would be gone but thanks for your help
go to natf's 4.7 thread and read the first couple posts... your answer is there. the reason it wasnt removed because RRE's rom doesnt have a splash screen.
you could always add your own splash screen...
Thanks to all for the info I will look at that.
I still find it weird that that would happen but you guys on more on the level than I am with all of this.
Oh yea and is there a way to install a flash screen on a working device or do i have to cook it into the rom and re-flash it.

I think this is the link on installing a splash screen..... if I'm not mistaken, you don't have to reflash or cook it into a ROM but I could be mistaken.... i think you just format your picture then place it into your windows folder somewhere.... read on.

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.
Tonight at 12 midnight my phone crashed.
On my screen now all I see is the following message:
This concludes the beta test of this software release. Thank you very much for your time and effort in helping make this a great product for our customers.
To obtain a newer release or further information please revisit the web site that you used to obtain your current beta release

Could this have something to do with the NAFT Rom I was running.
Above the message I see the windows logo in the upper left and then the word Start - but nothing works when I click on those. In addition when I try to sink to my computer it does not connect, so I can not explore using ActiveSync or even going through My computer. I am stumped on what to do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Same here, Just stopped working a hour and a half ago, (12:00 AM EST 03/01/09)
I am running a custom radio and RRE Fuze Edition.
Same as above. Why the hell do developers even put this **** in.
Guess your having the same problem as the guys with ROMeOS with the 21009 build...
It was leaked so it was beta, and ms put a timebomb in it. You need to install a new rom from bootloader.
I'm not using ROMeOS, I have RRE Fuze Edition. (Well it may be, I frankly don't remember what one it was. Thats what displays on that start)
Is there anyway to not lose my data?

WHY would NAFT (or anyone else) use the program if this is a possibility?
Can you please explain how to use the bootloader to install new ROM
This is SO frustrating. I am on a business trip!

Yea what I meant was apparently its also affecting other roms because they all used the same build (21009) in their rom. Anything on your phone is gone. I THINK the sd card is safe
****ing ****, why the hell do devs do that.
Ya SD card is obviously safe, but last time I did a backup was like a month ago (Ya i know...)
God damn this sucks.

Yea your going to have to install a new ROM buy downloading it and then putting the rom onto the root of your sd card. make sure the rom is RAPHIMG.nbh (and you only need the .NBH) Then hold vol down and reset until the tricolor screen comes up. It'll scan the sd, find the rom, press power button to flash.
Hope it works for you
P.S. dont forget to hard reset when your done!
P.P.S they most likely didn't know that this was a beta build that ms had put a timebomb in. Just another one of the reasons that people should really take the whole "flash at your own risk" thing seriously

how do I put ROM on the root of my sd card. I can not see the card on my phone because when attached it does not recognize the phone at all.
Hard reset after flashing? How come?
Sorry that im not more technical, ive had this phone for months and yet ive barely messed around.
It's just always recommended to hard-reset after installing a new rom. It's basically to ensure that you won't have any bugs or such.
Make sure you do it at the right time though! Wait until you get to the "Tap screen to setup device" screen. Then hard reset, which in case you didn't know is vol down center button, and reset until the tri color comes up, then vol up to reset

I have my microSD adapter, it came with mine. But my camera isnt recognizing it so its not appearing on my PC. And I don't have a normal SD connecter, GGRRRRRRRRRRR.

Have you tried a HARD RESET (hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER (center) Buttons, press the RESET button with the stylus tip, then release the RESET button but continue to hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons until the reset screen appears)
Havn't tried a hard reset but I guess I might as well, gonna lose everything anyway.

A hard reset is just most likely just going to result with the user having the same out-of-date rom as he did before, resulting in the same message

You don't need the adapter. Just put the phone in bootloader mode by turning the phone on while holding the volume up button and flash like you normally do. This is how I usually flash so that I can skip all the activesync junk.
Hope this helps!

what I have done is hard rebooted and reinstalled factory defaults to at least get the phone working. but after coming back up with the default settings, the phone automatically reinstalled NAFT's ROM, which then put me back at the crashed message. going to try again.
Hello,
I am new to this forum stuff so I hope someone can help me.
I have flashed the rom on my touch hd to this version -
HD_WM6.5__V44__B23004_07102009 by PDAVIET.
The phone runs the first time customization then restarts and runs it again!
This happens over and over.
I am unable to get into the home screen to flash it to another rom!
Can anyone give me any advice on how to re-flash my phone or how to stop this wizard from running time and again.
It says "preparing your device for first use", you align the screen, enter time and date, then it says installing etc, restarts the device and the does the same again!
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Try putting your phone in bootloader:
" On a powered off phone hold down the volume down button and power on at the same time.
You should see the tricolor screen after 2-3 seconds. "
And reflash from there.
Thats exactly what I was looking for .
Thank you, i have now get my brick back to a working phone.
Hi Lads,
My HTC touch diamond is doing strange, one day I woke up and suddenly it gave me a Red,Green,Blue,White screen. As I understood it's called bootlloader or something like that.
I tried reset+volumebutton after that it is starting normal and Ive got my phone back, but if I turn my phone back off its gaving me the terrible Red, Green, Blue, White screen back.
Ive tried to do a hard reset ( reset button + volume + round button) but then I have to press the volume button again to accept, but it isnt doing anything then.
Ive looked for some solutions but everything is chinese for me.
I just want my phone back to normal and I hope I dont have to loose all my files.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks anyway lads
Well, if possible, Backup all of your Data using either SPB Backup or Microsoft MyPhone, and reflash a new ROM.
This is what most users will tell you to do.
I think once a device encounters the Bootloader Infinite Loop issue, the only solution is to Flash a New ROM.
and how can I do that ? I am really a dummie at this point.
But it still works only if I put it back on I see the bootloader again.

..better post in the diamond thread. I am sure you will get help!
Maybe HardSLP?
Any update on your progress?
Curious as to whether or not you got the issue fixed.
[If you can get into the Bootloader, you can Re-Flash your device.. just keep it plugged into your computer when you restart your device.]
check my sig for a n00b tutorial
3 days back i noticed that no matter how many times i press the power button on my HTC Touch Pro(Vodafone) the back light wont go off.If i keep on pressing it a power off message would appear asking me should i switch off my phone.By changing the power settings i had set it to Turn off the backlight after 30 secs(If not used).Which helped but the problem remains the same,after the backlight goes off it wont come back no matter how many times i press the power button:/.
It would only come back by sliding the Qwerty,as a result the Phone despite of the fact being turned off is using power and my phone dies off after 3 hours or so:S.I tried resetting it by Clearing the Storage(7 times) but it didn't help.After i which i opted to Hard reset it by holding down the Vol & Enter button and then pressing the rest using Stylus,but no matter how many times i try it the stupid Vodafone startup screen would appear and it would not(Tried it when the phone was on).the phone simply wont shut down,i tried by pulling off the batter,but once the battery is in it would start all by itself:/(In this way i cant hard reset the phone while it is off:/:/).How can i hard reset it??Somebody please help me!!!!
P.S:I have unlocked the phone so that i can use it in here.
Sounds really weird... maybe you can try executing task29 and flash a new rom....
but I'm not sure...

Do you mean HardSPL? You could try flashing a stock ROM to the device after putting it in bootloader (hold volume down and press reset, keep holding volume down until you get the tricolour screen).
This thread should really be in the 'General' section...
@Ben
Sorry mate i am a new user of this forum so didn't knew in which section should i place this thread, apologies for that.
From where would i find a stock ROM and how would i flash it(Procedure in detail)?And after flashing this stock ROM would i be able to restore everything using Sprite backup?
Thanks in advance!!
Follow this guide if it's your first time, and as long as you've already backed your data up (which you should have if you were doing a hard reset anyway) then you should be fine with Sprite.

Go to the HTC website and download an original ROM from their support page.
Oh and when flashing back to stock, make sure you flash stock rom/radio first, before you remove HardSPL (see guide one post above)

Unfortunately the ROM available on HTC's(3.27.4.3) website is not supported by my phone(The text field after verifying my S/N number prompted that the ROM is not suitable for my phone).What should i do now?Shall i take the risk and give it a go??My only concern is that i don't want to end up with a locked phone after a ROM flash:/
P.S:Apologies for bad grammar.
My phone is Vodafone HTC Touch Pro GSM(Unlocked)
just give it a go. and flash it. you cant really even brick these phones. so your not losing anything. even flash a rom without the sprite backup built in. you can always get the cab
Download rom from sunnysoft, there's no Serial number check in there.
maybe your power button is broken like mine!

I doubt it as he can still power off by holding the button down. Sounds like a software problem to me... Is it the same for you with regards to powering off?
