After flashing i got the Checksum error fault, but done a normal reset.
Afterwards my device is completly dead.
No Bootloader, no light, nothing.

LumpiStefan,
Did u recover back ur device? :?
hi stefan,
I don't have jam, but make sure, that you are pressing right keys to enter bootloader...
buzz
Lumpi, been there, seen it got the T-shirt.
It was a BA, removed battery, went into bootloder, replaced in cradel and re ran,
But like I said was a BA.
Thx for all the tipps.
Device is actual in repair center.
Tried to think about what i have done, and i came to the conclusion, that i´ve been overwritten the bootloader witch nonsensabel data... :-(
As is didn´t get any bootloader, i think this had be the one and only solution...
Hope i get the device back soon.
Stefan
Lumpi, maybe we should all get kitted out with JTAG interface and code, we could fix our own problems then without too much expense. Is anybody interested in giving us their knowledge and experience with JTAG and giving us step by step instructions along with details of connection points to the chip
I may repeat this question by way of a new topic, there is some info about but most of it seems to based on Ipaq rather than xda range of phones..
d2s not working
I was flashing my Magician...
Now the device doesn't get cmd d2s and doesn't read the SD Card.
No meter what I do, when I send cmd d2s, mtty stop to work, and nothing happened!
Still same situation when I try with MaUpgradeUt.exe (ERR. 201 GET DEVICE DATA ERROR).
I'm stick on Bootlace... any suggestion??
Thanks in advance!
I got a similar problem of LumpiStefan........ after i done everything as him, no matter i soft or hard reset my xda mini, it still going back to the bootloader mode............. why??
same problem with my qtek. always go to bootloader, and cannot comunicate with pc. any help??
Don't woory,
I've had the same problem butt just connected the device with usb to the pc and started the rom update. Worked fine it just started the update again.
When updating the connection also gets lost so its no problem. Good luck! :lol:

Lumpi,
Did you get your phone back? Is it sorted?
I've got the same problem as you, totally dead screen; no bootloader no nothing...
This happened when I tried to patch the latest 1.12 WWE ROM with BigStorage- it went through fine to the 100%... Press Power etc then dead!
Probably have to send it back :shock:
If anyone has resolved this issue- i would very much appreciated the information.
Thanks.

No... I have the bootloader... but it's not doing anything. Did you have your original ROM backup?
I'm sure you should be able to flash using a working or an original rom if you can see the bootloader.
I can't do anything because my device doesn't turn on at all!!!
It seems that quite a few people got confused with the two different status of "dead" bootloader:
1. Stuck at bootloader screen - it's a dark screen showing "serial ..." or "usb ..." It indicates a "wrong" but not "corrupted" bootloader. (In some cases, it stucks at the splash screen.)
The machine can be easily recovered using a valid shipped rom, using MAUpgradeUt_noID.exe if necessary.
2. A black screen is one with no indication at all - check it with a torch. It indicates a corrupted bootloader. At the moment, only the repair centre can fix it.
It is risky to use the original SD card method to create the BigStorage because it might end up with either of the above two status.
It is highly recommended to search for the two locations in the ROM with "02 00 00 80 00 20" and replace 80 00 with b8 01. The method is simple, applies to all language versions and is risk-free.

Talents,
What exactly does the above do? Surely not a direct alternative to BigStorage; performing the same result?
BTW- thanks for clarifying the dead and corrupt bootloader for people.
Like Talents says, if you can see something on your screen then you should be able to get your system working but like in my case, a black screen- act dumb and send to the repair centre.
This method creates your own BigStorage ROM:
1. Dump your original ROM to SD card. (romupdate.exe and ntrw.exe)
2. Edit your own ROM. (hex editor)
i.e. search for the two locations in the ROM with "02 00 00 80 00 20" and replace 80 00 with b8 01.
3. Write the edited ROM back to the Magician and hard reset your machine. (ntrw.exe)
That's it
- no more downloading of others' BigStorage ROMs
- no need to replace the first 416 bytes
- a simple, safe, do-it-yourself method to create your own BigStorage based on whatever ROM version you already have or upgraded.
So I been trying to upgrade my OS to the tnt 1437, however every time I try my old OS keeps popping up (OS: 5.1.xxx (Build 15671FARIA.3.5)) ... so for the last 3 days I been trying to search this site for any answers, however all I get is that only happens if the CID is locked, but my phone isn't 1) I unlocked it before to upgrade it in the first place to the above mentioned OS and 2) I checked its status with the Wizard Service Tool (which is AWESOME). So i'm at a lose here as to why every time I either upgrade or downgrade the ROM the same OS keeps showing up. BTW Everything else I can upgrade except the OS. Any help is appreciated. thanks!
Anyone? Anything?
Did you remember what version of IPL and SPL when you unlock your Wizard? It is only unlockable when IPL and SPL is 1.xx (i.e. Downgrade to Button's ROM first). You may post your WST log here for more chance to know what the problem is.
Here you go here is the log:

Did you flash back to the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM before you tried to flash to another custom ROM?

Yes I tried both the button ROM and the love ROM with no change ... On another note I can change the IPL and the SPL with no trouble however the OS always stays the same.
Not the love or button - the original carrier ROM, either T-Mobile or Cingular.
Have you tried doing a hard reset, and then flash to the T-Mobile ROM from a different computer?

I just tried what you mentioned however I got the following error when I was doing the ROM update .... fyi I got it from the tmobile site ... when I ran the rom update I got:
error [326]: invalid command
this nbf file cannot be used for your pda phone. please check your nbf file.
It looks like you originally skipped the 2.26 rom. I did the same thing the first time I flashed a rom. Try flashing back down to the Button rom, then to the 2.26, then the tnt 1437. It worked for me.
Am I doing something wrong here cause every time I try some downgrade its always the same OS that shows up ... 3.3.0.0 that NEVER changes, everything else does.
i have the same problem..

What OS does your phone boot with?
bad flash rom, you need junk the phone or donate to XDA-developers
first take out the sd card.then flash your phone with buttons 1.0 rom.hardreset. then flash it again with buttons rom. unlock the device totaly with the unlock software. hardreset. flash with original t-mobile us 2.26 rom
halfway above 80% pull the usb plug. the phone get stuck and the update program will tell you it doesnt respond. reset the phone (little hole on the side) you will see the 3 color screen . now restart the 2.26 update and when
you get at the part that it starts looking for the phone connect it. sometimes
it just works , sometimes you need to try a few times.. it wont ruin the phone
as i had this many times due to a crashing computer. wjen its done do a hardreset and install the rom you wanted.
hope this helps you guys

Out of curiosity when I downgrade to any of these roms am I looking for the OS to downgrade or just the IPL/SPL?

how is it a bad flash rom if the IPL/SPL and GSM all change everytime i change roms. The only thing that doesn't is the OS.

Wm6 Roms can only be upgraded if you have an IPL/SPL 2.xx,as I can see from your present Rom version 1.1.7.5,you must be having IPL/SPL 1.xx,therefore,it's not possible to upgrade to wm6,untill and unless you upgrade your phone to IPL/SPL 2.xx.
First flash T-mobile 2.26 to upgrade to 2.xx and then flash any wm6 rom.
Good luck
be sure that unlock means both "cid and sim" unlock, because sometimes it is network unlocked only, you can use your device with different networks using different simcards, to flash a rom you need the device cid unlocked, read the guides
Hi , thanks for the reply, i must mention that my phone is a QTek 9100 please tell me if the T-mobile 2.26 will install on my phone. if it can please can u give me a download link to it.. I've been searching the site but i haven't found any..
nannhy
Are u sure your phone is CID unlocked? use the wizard service tool to be sure. U can download the t-mobile ROM here: http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/ You need to have a t-mobile phone number. If u dont know any, PM me, and ill let u use mine, u dont have to pay, its just to make sure that ur a t-mobile customer.

XM6R2a is NOT wm5...if you "installed" it and you are still on wm5 then your phone is NOT cid unlocked which is probably what the communication error (302?) was trying to tell you in the first place. Follow the "how to flash a wizard" guides that are a sticky at the top of the forum.
Hey thanks to everyone who have been offering information, my progress so far, i've CID unlocked my phone and i reinstalled the pro+home wm6 and all is working, except i cant use my camera, cause i dont have enough memory as is replied by the os, i'm going to try the t-mobile updated as pointed out in a previous post.
I think i screwed up. Dash 3g, did have SPL 1.26 now somehow says SPL-1.19.Hard. I am trying to fix it but it is not recognized...PLEASE!!!

**EDIT**
I was being a blind idiot trying to flash back to the t-mo 6.5 instead of 3VO...yup i need a break
I have tried all the roms possibles existing and also computer operatng system and my cell continues bricked.
I can still get into bootloader (screen with colors on it)But when i tried to flash i get error something this rom is not for this cellphone etc etc.
Also tried the fat32 caed repair same problem.
Mapl120
spl-1.22.0000
microp-maple (led)v6
engid 0x2
pcbid 0x80
panelinfo 15-0x2
cellphon provider:I don't have a clue whitch one was it.
all though it comes with an spanish keyboard.Telefonica roms give a cid error that the rom is not for my cellphone.Which it makes sense been a mapl120 that's the usa version. tried the tmobile also carrier error etc etc,
SO maybe somebody can give me a hand on this.
Or point me to the place in the htc site where i can get the original rom by giving the serial number which is commented all in the forum ,but it has been impossible for me to find that place in the htc site.
