HELP!! Cant use my Wizard anymore

Hi guys i'm pretty new in this scene and i did something stupid...
i've downloaded Win Mobile 6 from usenet and installed it without reading
anything. At 95% of the installation it hangs and when i try to recover it doesnt work. Now i only have the screen with the green red and blue at the background. I've tried a hard reset but that doesnt work either and i tried to search by google and found nothing.
Am i right that i had to remove some kind of G4 lock? And does somebody know how to help me getting things started again.....
thnx in advance.

do your carriers flash and let it fully finish. Once thats done, read a little on making sure your device is unlocked and once you get that done, youll be ready to move to the next level.
what your device is g3 or g4?

how do i perform such a flash and how can i see what kind of G3/4 i have??

If you got a G4 or G3 IPL/SPL 2.x:
Try flasing wizard_love rom from the bootloader screen.
If you got IPL/SPL 1.x:
flash button_rom from the bootloader screen.

damn thats a whole mouth full and i dont get it how its intended.....
perhaps you can tell me in dutch or in a language a stupid fool can understand

You should provide more information... What phone model is this? Is it a G3 or G4? What is your IPL / SPL? What did you do before this started happening? Was the battery fully charged before you started this process? Did your PC give you errors when you tried to do teh initial flash that started this process?
The more information you provide the better we can help.
If your phone won't stay turned on when its on the bootloader (rainbow screen) then either your battery is almost dead, or you may have bricked your phone. But we need more details.

this happened to me once, i almost had an heart attack.. but anyway.. what u get there is the bootloader mode, which is you can still save the phone.. when this happened to me, all i did was, i upgraded to original tmobile rom, and from there i ve used shell tool to upgrade to wm6 (my wizard is not unlocked but shelltool takes care of that and u dont have to worry).. its really easy.. let me know what happened.. no worries

Dont worry guys... I think most of us here, faced the same things before, Me included.
Everybody here is quite nice and will help u in any way we can..
Just do some research and fact finding before u flash your rom..
One of the article that I think is very helpful to me is Dr P post on how to unlock and flash your wizard.
If you have any problem or question after reading that, just ask.
Hopefully u can find your answer and your wizard are all healthy..

my phone is G4...first, when i tryed to change the rom, on 95% was blocked..and i have wait about 20 minutes, and nothing...the spl is....01...the battery was quite full, but after several tries, i don't know now how it is (i supose to be from the battery, but i still need a very good rom for it)

ok.. here are the steps.. its very easy.. i had the samething..
your phone is probably CID locked and you will need a shelltool to install that ROM.. so what you need to do is just download the original tmobile ROM.. and connect the phone and install the original ROM.. You didnt birck the phone because you get the bootloader screen.. which means, you can still save the phone..
anyway.. connect the phone via usb and install after you install the original wm5, download the shelltool from here and follow the instructions.. and install the ROM via shelltool.. Then you should be good to go with the new
wm6.

Simple: Go to the Wizard Upgrading forum and in the stickies is a post by Dr. Putingham on how to CID Unlock your device. Scroll to the bottom of the first post and there is a direct link to pull the Tmobile 2.26 official ROM.
But as EasyMob suggested (and gave a link to) you may be better off with teh Wizard Love rom since you are a G4 device. Wizard Love ROM is very good at recovering G4 devices.

If you read my previous post, I gave you exactly how to find the link (Hint, its in the first post of Dr. Putingham's sticky in the Wizard Upgrading forum and the title is about How to CID Unlock your device. Was that too hard?

i believe you, but i can't find it...and about 3 days i'm hopeless, because with any ROM version, the phone is still restarting, after reflashing (i didn't flash it with tmobile original rom)...please please, give me the link of the topic...

Once you run sspl and it goes to bootloader it should show USB on the bottom. Once it says that you need to unplug and then replug your device's usb connection. Then continue to the flashing part.

okay if i understand correctly, u already have hardspl?
spl's r not rom specific. ur phone comes with an spl and flashing roms over ur carriers spl can and will lead to u bricking ur phone.
now if u r trying to flash hardspl than follow instructions to the "t" and post back.

lol
that one vital step got me un plugging and replugging the phone lmao
ok im at 1.93 thats the newest??? thought i read somthing about a 3.25 but it was german
is 1.93 good fro l26 diamond?

okay i will repeat that is a version of jumpspl; it has nothing to do with the rom. ROMS ARE NOT spl dependent. As long as you get hardspl onto your device (doesn't matter if you use jumpspl 1.93 or 1.5x, whichever one works) you can flash leos, dutty's, shogunmark's, kyphurs, _alex_'s anyones rom you want.

but the freezing issue is the reason i was doing all this im so confused now do i need to re hard spl my phone again to flash other roms what would be the purpose of soing what ive done then??? or are people just guessing at the stalling issue still?????

1.93 is actually a valid AT&T SPL it is the updated (although not the latest) one. So he might not be referring to jumpSPL even though there is also a version 1.93 of that (most probably based off the AT&T SPL).

I don't want to blow you off, but you should really go back and read the threads dealing with this to get a better understanding.. There are a few and they answer all the questions. If you are read them and still have questions or problems, post in those threads since continuing this thread is just more of the same.

when u mentioned 1.93 i thought u were referring to jump spl (thanks for clarrifying bengalih).
yes apparently going back to the att spl does fix freezes (can't confirm as i haven't tried) and if u need help with that post under relevant thread as bengalih suggested.
yes if u r going to flash a cooked rom u will need to reflash hardspl first.

i use to have hard spl sir,and went back to normal official spl,just like going back to official roms.never had a problem..all went smoothly. been running official wm6.1 htc wwe for 2 weeks now with the original spl (not hard spl). Now that i wanted to try again to hard spl and flash cooked roms safely i cant see the usb on the bottom when i do sspl or jump uspl. am i missing something sir??

check for my reply under the sticky at the top of the forum

hard spl flashing...
hello skipper, thesire, and all others,
i wanted to reiterate that you should really read the forum linked above because it has a special "force usb" version of the hard spl installation that mau very well help you.
also, we could all maybe help you a bit more if you could post your firmware/spl versions (the numbers listed at top left on bootloader, but you probably knew that already, lol) Just so we can get a better idea of your situation- the more info the better!
i do a lot of kaiser and athena rom building, I posted a few decent roms at the beginning of the year but i havent released one since... (workin on one now though) but i am not exactly the caliber of rom builder that some of these guys are ... anyways, my point is that i have been in A LOT of hairy situations like this, but persistance is the key, so if i can help in any way i will....

hey genius you are replying to the wrong guy. I DID NOT make the post. The guy who did i already suggested the solution you provided (even before you did) under jockyw's hardspl thread where he posted the same exact problem ....

i have managed to get in to the bootloader to flash the hard spl,using the 1.56 ver of sspl..however,neither of all the hard spl works after that.i cant flash any of the hard spl packages. im really suprise this is happening as i have done a lot of flashing back and forth for my tytnII. oh yah,my spl is 3.29 from the official HTC WWE wm6.1
thanks for all the help..

OK do you have HardSPL installed? That is a must to flash ROM!
Also who is your carrier? Do they have official ROM? If so, install that one, and that should install no matter what! Install ROM using SD Card method! Read Wiki for that.

well i guess i got hardspl i put it before.
second i dont have the offical rom where do i get it?
3 how i intall rom with sd card?

You're not gonna get any help with that attitude buddy!! Just flash a different rom or go to the xdawiki and read.

Please read the wiki / stickies before creating a new thread. All of the answers to these questions are well documented.

OMG...did i brick my phone?

Ok...so my tp2 is verizon and I did the whole hardspl thing and somehow got the energyrom leo on my fone, and then wen i tried to update to the new sense 2.1 extreme rom, i dont know wat happened. It said to use this custom ruu thing which i clicked on, and wen it updated my fone, my fone does absolutely nothing now cept loading the start screen where it says Touch pro2
I new something was wrong becus at no point was the .nbh that i extracted used, but no ruu came with the file that i downloaded...sighhh so is my fone dead or wat? I tried hard resetting, and although i am able to get to the hard reset page, wen i actually do it, it still just freezes where touch pro2 screen comes out

dont trip
i've 'bricked' most of my phones i've played with at least once. If your getting anything your ok - go to boot loader mode, reflash the original rom on it, then the one you want. Make sure your battery has a good charge also ^^

Failed flashing with CustomRUU.exe
Every flash has failed (freezes at "Touch Pro2" boot screen) when I tried to use a ROM that uses CustomRUU.exe (Miri, Cell_Pro, Athine, AF, Shadowline, and others). Flashing ROMs that use ROMUpdateUtility.exe already extracted flash fine. I've even tried first flash the original Sprint stock ROM and then flashing a "CustomRUU" ROM but without success. I've also extracted the files from the CustomRUU.exe and then run it with the nbh file but that doesn't work either. HTC Touch Pro2 (Sprint)
Any suggestions?

You're flashing CDMA ROMs, right? Not the GSM only ones found here, but CDMA ones from elsewhere, like here? Try flashing one of the CDMA ROMs found at the second link, and see if that works, because I think you may be flashing GSM ROMs onto your CDMA device, which would explain why it flashes, but doesn't boot properly. Hope that helps

Apparently, I was flashing a GSM ROM. There really should be better indication of what the ROM is designed for than simply being in a particular form. It wouldn't be any trouble to add a few characters (GSM/CDMA) to the file name to make it clear.
Thanks!

My Verizon tp2 is stuck on the TOUCH pro2 screen when it tries to boot.. It will not hard or soft reset. So it's not being recognized by my pc to do the hardspl thing. I was trying to flash the perfectblack rom but it said it was not for my device...so i tried Energy rom.. it flashed but will not boot.. please help...how do i fix this.

Well...I took it back to Verizon...they are sending me another one. Have to figure out what I did wrong because I truly wanted to try a cooked rom or two.
Back to the drawing board.

Wait, you are sending Verizon your phone with a non-booting cooked ROM and the HSPL on it?!?
If they figure that out, there's a good chance you'll be SOL.

Exactly. Even if you have insurance on the TP2, if you sent it back with anything that is not stock, your insurance is probably voided, they probably wont give you your phone back, and you might even have to pay full price for a new one. Good luck man. Definitely should have held out for some responses before you sent it out. If you haven't then that's good, but if you did, your probably out of luck.

Why didn't you try what the orginal poster did?
I loaded a GSM rom on my Sprint TP2, I wasn't paying attention to the orginal
Post and just thought oh.. I want this rom..
What I did,
Turn on the device while holding down the Power button and the Volume Down key. If you see Serial and 3-4 colored bars plug in your USB, and reflash with a CDMA Rom.
This fixed my Phone. Credits to the gurus at PPC Geeks. if i find the topic later I'll post it.
