O2 XDA Exec Won't Power On after Unccessfull ROM Upgrade

Hi...
I was trying to Upgrade my O2 XDA Exec Rom with Windows Mobile 6.5 by explode. The process went successfully till 99% and after that it ended up with Error. Then I unplugged my pda from the pc and tried to restart the device. I was surprised that the device did not respond to any of the following
Soft Reset
Hard Rest
Boot Loader mode Start (Bulb + Power + Reset)
It is totally blank screen whatever you do.
When I connected the device to the pc with usb cable, a Red Light is shown for 2 seconds and then goes off and a message comes up on the pc that "USB DEVICE NOT RECOGNIZED".
Then I tried to Remove battery from the device for a whole night and the next day morning i did all the above procedures again to get no results.
Kindly Help me out
Thanks

I think you have been bricked your device...

Try to reflash with another ROM
Hope it helped
And don´t forget to vote!

I had already done those steps to get no results.
its my badluck.

If you cannot get into bootloader and you have done the steps above, then you cannot flash to another rom.......it would seem you now have a paperweight im afraid

I am still not able to revive my device. I know that it is just due to corrupt bootloader but don't know how to repair it.
If anybody ever has solution for this... kindly let me know.
Regards

Have you tested mtty?
I would recommend to PM a chef on Universal forum
Good luck,

Mtty is not detecting my device
it says can't open usb port

One More thing I have noted is that when I keep the device connected with the pc, at a certain interval of about 10-15 mintues my device's Led shows RED Light for few seconds and then turns off followed by the the "USB device not recognized" on my pc.
I hope this can be used as a hint towards reviving my device.
Regards

have you followed orbs advise above and pm a chef on that section, they maybe able to help. From my knowledge (limited on that device) i ddont think there is any recovery proceedure that you have not tried. Have u downloaded offical wm5 rom and tried it. I know and appreciate that it will probably not work due to corrupt bootloader, but what else is there to do??
To understand more, what did you do PRIOR to trying to flash to 6.5.
Did you hardspl correctly? Had you already flashed to another rom and just felt like flashing to another new rom?? Give us more detail.

Thanks for your reply
I dont know how to PM Chef.
I had used 3 other Rom versions of WM6.1 on my device. They ran very much fine on my device. But When i found WM6.5 xplode, I wished to try that too. But the rom update procedure went successfully till 99% and after that it showed an error that upgrade was not successfull. I pulled out the device and tried to restart if by all methods but I wasnt able to power on at all.
Thanks
Regards

ok, goto the thread that you got the rom off, click the chefs name and you will get a menu there to send pm, do it, he might have seen a similar problem or know how to correct bootloader.
good luck

noup really no...
Is bricked
my bro has bricked an Universal and the same led turns red no power off no bootloar no power it means the flash chip is dead!
Sorry to heard that.
He waits too long for the upgrade it tooks at least 40 minutes
then ERROR... but you know... the batt was died in middle process ( th batt was ****ed up, it say full charged but no! it was on 60 or 50%) then the stupid thing is make a hardreset.. i told him dont hR your device... justa simple reste and reinit the process... and huh! its bricked.
if you are interested on sell your parts
maybe my bro want some parts.

my advice(similar to other people):
1. Charge your batery somehow (in other device or anything else)
2. put your devce in bootloader mode and connect it to pc - it wll be detected like microsoft usb sync
3. use mtty try difrend versions becuse sometimes 1.42 does not detect it properly - read here for what to do with mtty
IMO this may be battery problem or nand chip problem - in both cases it is hardware fail

Not trying to oversimplify things, but is the device fully charged? Did you have any problems during the flash? Which SPL did you flash? Have you tried a hard reset? Can you get to the bootloader screen to verify the version of SPL installed vs. the version you tried to install?
Just a few questions to help us try to figure out what is going on. Take care!

How are you trying to get to the bootloader screen? Have you fully read through this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=533976
Finally, I would recommend downloading the original ROM and installing it. The ROM for the Tilt is here:
http://www.htc.com/us/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=67&cat=2&dl_id=94
That is straight from HTC's website, and you might look to see if your specific phone is there. You should be able to download it, connect your phone with the USB cable and run the downloaded file from your computer to bring your phone back to it's original state.
If that works, I would then re-read the link above thoroughly and give it another shot. Hope this helps!

To access bootloader, you should hold down the camera button (on right side of phone) and the use the stylus to press the reset button (on bottom of phone.) When the phone goes blank, release the camera button.
When you do this, do you still get the blank/black screen?
Also, did you follow EACH step in the following thread:

Fanning the flames.
Okay if you can't access the boot loader then you need to go higher up. I think the chain is Radio Rom, then SPL, then OS. Basically your SPL is gone, that is why your screen is black and you can't get into the boot loader --- cause its gone. So no duh, it can't load the OS. So, your only hope is that your radio rom is working so you can access the phone via cmd interface programmed within it.I really don't know what i'm talking about, but I've bricked my phone too and with some guidance (er explicit instructions in chat) I was (er she was) able to fix it [my situation was far more complicated with a "security locked" device, and a "radio from hell"].

[Q] HTC HD7 Diag Mode and Zune need some help

This mode was accidentally entered when I'm trying to boot my htc hd7 and press camera button together with volume up (around 20sec while the phone booting). For your information, my htc hd7 having problem with zune application and my device manager recognize it as unknown devices (yellow exclamation mark).
It was caused when I've sideloading USBModeSwitch.xap and change from ZUNE to DIAG mode. After the phone restarting, the apps has been revoke then i've no chances to install the apps again to fix it back to ZUNE mode.
Now the phone can operate as usual but cannot recognize by zune (yellow exlamation mark in device manager in PC).
The good news is, the phone had recognized by pc when entering this mode. and the devices manager detect the phone under Portable Devices -> Schubert. Can we sideloading apps using this mode? If yes... it was a good news for those having the same problem with me. But the question is.. HOW.
Note: After the incident, I already flash the phone. but still unable to be detected by ZUNE Desktop in normal state. it can operate, can install from market place as usual but cannot sync with zune desktop. Can somebody help me on this? Sorry for my English. You may refer with my attachment for the images and the XAP application.
Note 2: Never try the USBModeSwitch.xap if your phone is not fully unlock or will facing the same problem with me. hope someone can fix this issue. because lot of friends are stuck in this doom.

same problem here....
an hd7 too...

First, are your phones unlocked? I assume they are. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to deploy this USB-whatever.xap.
You may try deploying smth after running WPConnect (Phone has to be connected already). This small consoleapp does some funny stuff with the phone/PC connection. So maybe your devices will be recognized this way.
Best you start WPConnect from commandline, to have a look at the output, which should be smth like "[Devicename] successfuly connected..." or such.
C~

tried it, doesn't help
the phone is not unlocked anymore... that is the problem in my case ;-)
but i was able to install the HTC Diagnostic Drivers...
but i dont know if i can use it to disable Diag-Mode...

And you are not able to re-unlock your phone (via official or Chevron)? Have you tried to unlock after connecting - closing Zune - running WPConnect?
This is just a mere guess, but hey, who knows it maybe work

we cannot lock our devices as neither zune nor WPConnect realize that the phone is connected (because of it is in Diagnostic-Mode)
but thanks for your reply ;-)

Yup that's true. I try to used ansar ROM, flash it, but nothing change. I wonder if we can custom a rom and implement the extract file of USBModeswitch.xap to the rom. so that the phone will boot with usbmodeswitch installed in it, using this step, we're able to switch the mode from diag back to zune.
This the final technique might can help for now. For the ROM, i can only break/extract until I've got the 2 OS file:- 2_os.nb.extra (±2.4MB) and the other one is 2_os.nb.payload (±181MB). Ok, until then, I was stuck. if not... we can extract the XAP directly to the OS folder, then repacking back the ROM. the 2_os.nb.payload file was unable to extract to bin file. Error shown:- "no boot partition". Maybe I'm using the old WinMo tools to extract it.
ahhh.... gosh... stuck in this step. any help and guide will be much appreciated.

Hi,
from your writing i can read that you have the needed knowledge to make this thing...
so how long do you think will it take to get the two files...
and if you get these files, how can we flash that ROM without HSPL or SSPL?
thanks for your answer ;-)

our problem is... there's still no kitchen for WP7 (temporary). So.. we have to wait Da_G or Ansar.Ath.Gr work. they might have some tools that can help us. I knew.. lot of our friend already stuck in this mode as well. So... there's no sync with zune for us... no music transfer via usb.. and we have to forget all the thing that we can do using the USB cable except for charging it. lol~ how sick...

yeah...
i can only listen to radio in the morning when i drive to school...
i hate the most of the breakfast-shows
i have another idea instead of waiting for an C-ROM...
but that is only possible with a clean, Chevron-Unlocked and USB-Switch installed WP7 phone...
so nothing personally...
and we need to wait for the update...
the whole clean system would be backed up and could be used for our WP7 devices to get the USBSwitch-App onto our phone (holding camera-key when starting to install backup)
would be great if there is anybody who makes it...

hi
ask the autor of this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922000
maybe he can help ,his tool use usbmodeswitch.

im active in his thread too, but he didn't answer at all...

I have actally done this myself sadly the only option I had was to sync all my contacts with Windowslive and reset the HD7 by holding both volume keys while powering it on from a cold boot.

I want to know what Radio was on it , I think that tool does something with the radio rom on the phone , it could help the flash an older rom using a goldcard with an older radiorom in it.
edit:
maybe it is the spl , try to flash a rom with a lower/higher spl number.

[Q] My Alcatel One Touch Blaze Glory X 918N won't open.

Hi everyone!
I just had a problem with my android phone. It is rooted, and I tried to downgrade my GB 2.3.6 to 2.3.5. I followed a certain instructions about this, using a Flash Tool with a scatter-file Europe_2.3.5.txt. After I downloaded it, my phone won't open now. I'm afraid I hardly bricked it.
It won't open, won't show if it's charging (but i'm pretty sure it is), can't be booted to recovery mode or download mode, can't be detected by PC when I connect it to the USB. No response at all. Please, if there are any people who can help me out there, help me. I'm starting to panic about it.

[Q] Urgent! Stuck at bootloader but cant do anything

Hi u all!
First of all thank you for your time and sorry for my english, I speak spanish.
I have a nexus s i9023. I was using CyanogenMod 11 experimental 24042014.
I was having many problems and decided to downgrade to the stable version 10.1.2
It downloaded ok, installed all the updates, rebooted and then got stuck in the logo screen when booting.
The problem is that my nexus s has a broken the power button, it doesn't work.
As for right now the olny thing I can do is to enter the bootloader screen, but cant move throgh the options with the volume keys, it's like its stuck.
If I plug in the device when in the bootloader (fastboot mode) screen my PC doesn't recognice it, I search in the device manager but it doesn't appear.
If it helps when I plug in the battery the phone starts on in it's on.
Please, any help is appreciated.
Im really sad because I love my nexus.
Thank you!!!

Same here. Any help for us would be great. Thanks.

The problem is that my nexus s has a broken the power button, it doesn't work.
As for right now the olny thing I can do is to enter the bootloader screen, but cant move throgh the options with the volume keys, it's like its stuck.
If I plug in the device when in the bootloader (fastboot mode) screen my PC doesn't recognice it, I search in the device manager but it doesn't appear.
If it helps when I plug in the battery the phone starts on in it's on.
Please, any help is appreciated.
Im really sad because I love my nexus.
Thank you!!!

Seems like a driver issue. Can you try installing the drivers in a different system?
If it goes well, then use install cwm touch recovery from fastboot. You can take backup and flash new ROMs after that.
Try Nexus Root Toolkit to install drivers if you don't have access to a different system.

Don't I need to have android debugging enabled? If so, I don't think Nexus Root Toolkit will work. I flashed a ROM to my NS4g & I get boot loops. I flashed the wrong Gapps a few months ago.
I was hoping there would be a way to automatically turn android debugging on. I know it may sound dumb & also probably impossible.
Any other tips.
Tell me I'm screwed. Haha.

I disabled USB debugging. Rebooted to bootloader. Fired up 'fastboot devices' on cmd and could see my phone. This tells me that I do not need USB debugging on fastboot.
If you see an unknown device in Device Manager while in fastboot then use Universal Naked Driver to install the drivers. But since you don't, you'll need another PC to do this stuff. Once drivers are installed, you can do a 'fastboot reboot recovery' to get into recovery and fix the the problems. The first thing I advice is to flash a touch recovery. The rest is up to you.

Flash back the original soju firmware back onto your device by first using "nexus s root toolkit v.1.8.2 by wugfresh". It may take a little of your time downloading the roms and installing the drivers but trust me it should be working and your phone will boot into stock android 4.1.2. You can then root your device and install custom recovery as normal. Anything do pm me :laugh: ps, click the bricked option one the software is loaded up and remember to connect your device only and remove other phones from your computer
