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?

Hello I have done all the Faria tutorial and got it unlocked and IPL AND SPL 3.08, but when I tried flashing a WM6 rom the process stuck at 6% and the update program gave me a "conection failure" error and then started a step by step recovery process... I have done it and now i´m with the 3 colors screen (red green blue) but I´m trying to flash a rom to it without success. why is that? can someone help me?
you need to read this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314646
I hope you weren't flashing with vista. I think it requires the shell tool.
no, no vista.
I have followed EVERY instruction in the VIPPIE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613 and FARIA tutorials, the problem was that when flashing it gave me a connection problem at 6% and then is not stuck in the bootloader screen. I hope my phone is not damaged since i´m in brazil. But I´ve tried several roms without success... they say problems with version OR with connection. Why can that be?
it stays a long time in "verifying the information on your PDA phone..." and then it returns those errors I´ve mentioned.

Once unlock...always unlocked unless you reversed the procedure.
If your flash of a custom rom fails again, your device is probably not CID unlock and you need to go thru the unlocking process again.
ok after fixing the problem with the n3rxs help I´ve flashed the Wizard Love rom to prepare to flash a WM6 rom. The Wizard love rom i´ve used has a Italian instalation program, is that right? after I installed it the cell phone keeps reestarting I can´t do anything in it, it only loops restarting... what´s that?
found the solution, had to keep the camera button pressed and then reset the device so it enters in BootLoad mode then I flashed a original cingular bios and after that upgraded to WM6 without a glitch!!
I think I may be completely screwed but hopefully someone here can help me.
I tried running the shelltool program to flash to faria's wm6 rom and now my phone is completley bricked. It is stuck on the first screen when you power the device on, the screen that says T-Mobile and tells you what rom and radio version are installed on the phone.
I have tried running the RUU provided by T-Mobile and that didnt work and I have also tried re-flashing the rom using the shelltool program using the original rom. Nothing is working and I am desperate for help.
If anyone has any ideas, please help me as this is my only cell phone and I do not have the money to replace it.
Please, please help if you can.

Did you put the phone into bootloader mode? Turn it off (pull the battery if you have to). Then hold the camera button while you turn the phone on. You'll get the bootloader screen. From there you should be able to flash a rom. (I assume Shell Tools works here, but I don't know). Is your phone a G4 or a G3?. Safest thing is to flash the Wizard Love rom I'd assume. See the stickie at the top of the forum about how to flash as it has links and all...
Thank you so much man... You seriously save my A$$.
If you are not doing it already, I recommend to back-flash first to the latest vendor provided ROM, flash your radio ROM of choice if you want (optional), then finally flash the latest ROM. This ensures that you have a solid base to start out with.
ok I have completely rebooted the phone to the base rom provided by t-mobile but I am having trouble finding shelltool so that i can still flash the rom i really want.
right now it is the standard tmobile rom.
If you know where I can download shelltool so I can flash the custom rom i want then that would be great.
A little searching or looking at the topics would have gave you your answer.

thank you thank you thank you.
PPCKitchen's BuildOS bricked my phone, and I had to do this to save it. I certainly won't muck with that app again.
Ok, please read the stickies before reflashing. Or you'll kill your device again.

Try to flash each part one at a time, not all of them at the same time.
Note that this ROM do not work with some extended rom and that blank page at first was the reason of that. Flash your extended rom with the tomal's own extended rom. You can find it...(oh no it has been removed, I will try to upload it for you). After flashing the extended rom try ato re-flash the rom and at last try to re-flash the radio (If you need it). Beware that flashing extended rom will erase your own extended rom so try to find one and decode its files to have your customization files back...
Hope it works
I have problem uploading file try to search for "Tomal_extrom" yourself and I will try to upload it...
Tried to flash Tomals ext ROM...but wont work too....I'm hopeless, maybe I should say goodbye to my uni,.....

Seems your DOC is corrupted and unable to write.
Use mtty tool and re-format it, I'm pretty sure that everything will be OK then. But make sure that you have disabled AS before executing mtty!
pls give the action step by step, im very hopeless

the wiki is your friend: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader
Do not try to use copy paste in MTTY, type every command.
Before doing this ( steps 1 to 17) beware that you must download an original rom to get the windows mobile rom, the radio rom and the extended rom ( see step 13).
Last time I took Tomal v8.2, his extended rom and radio 1.15, put all 3 in the RUU folder and runned the update utility. It will take arround 20 minutos to flash the 3 files. thx to TehPenguin you can get these files here: http://vidmes.com/xda/Uni/ROMs/Tomal/ and here: http://vidmes.com/xda/Uni/Radios/
Be advised that I've not read the other posts on the thread, so I don't know if you should try this process or not.
Cheers

Ive been read the threads about that, but ive this problem:
i ve a hardspl 3.29 and trying to downgrade to original rom the flashing process stops at 15%.
i can install only custom rom and so i cant reverting back to original rom and spl.
ive been tried to flash first the spl but not working...
someone can help me please?
thx!!
wow, I don't think I've ever haleard it this way before. Usually you can't upgrade to a cooked ROM, not the other way around.
So, you get no errors while installing a cooked ROM, but it stops at 15% when trying to downgrade...
I know that some shipped ROMs flash the SPL at 15%, so this must be the problem.
Undortunately, I am a lucky one who has never had anything bad happen to me while flashing (besides my laptop running out of battery), so I don't really have much advice to give you, but I'm sure somebody else will.
Sorry, hope it all goes well for you
HardSPL prevents itself from being replaced. You need to run JumpSPL or SSPL-KAIS on the phone when it is running WM as normal, which will switch you to triciolor screen, where you can flash the original SPL.
This should be detailed in the "How to revert to factory state" page in the wiki.
thx but ive been done all and now my kaiser it's brick on bootloader:
dont allow to flash hard spl
dont allow to flash custom rom
dont allow to flsh original rom
Help PLease!!!!!!!
