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...
I am a little confused. I have been trying to get WM6 on my T-mobile Wizard and actually got TNT 1.1 loaded and was working fine. I found that I could no longer view my contacts. The page would appear and then as quickly as it appeared it disappeared.
So I figured, I at least got it this far. I will just reload this rom and see if perhaps something did load right. Well after the reload. The phone boots up to the splash screen with IPL\SPL numbers and just sits. NOTHING.
I left it there for like 2 hours and still nothing. But I can still get into the BootLoader.
My questions to you gurus is:
Is the phone fubared?
Can I do some kind of master reset?
Why would it tell me "Invalid Vendor ID" when trying to flash the orginal T-mobile rom?
Are there any tools that can help me out? Paid\free?
Please help!!! Seriously! Please HELP!!!
Very much appreciated.
Thanks

if your device is G3, unlocking is required to flash any rom, before upgrade your device, it is recommended to flash an official WM5.0 rom (in your case T-Mobile rom) with IPL and SPL 2.xx then flash again.
in general there are many probabilities for your issue.
((Where is TNT1.1?? did you mean 1.0?? ))
My Bad meant 1.0
So to get it straight.... I will need to unlock my phone each time?
Oh and to correct myself again, when flashing with the T-mobile ROM it says UPGRADE ONLY. And the read me file says its the wrong RUU. But it is the same file from Tmobile I used when I first got the phone. But I will try again.
Are there any other suggestions?
You need to read the "how to flash" sticky.
I did. I am not any expert or anything but I believe the phone is unlocked already since I once had WM6 on my phone. The real issue I am having is that it wont boot past the splash screen after flashing.
And that is true when re following the steps in guide. After flashing to the button rom it will not boot past the splash screen.
Try another ROM.
Sounds like you need the "Wizard Love" rom. I dont have the link handy but I am sure someone else does.

Already got it. Thanks I am trying to load it now. But the only thing is that the last time it failed and I can understand what the error says. I know the number is 300 but can read the language.
But I will let you guys know when this load completes.
Thanks again for all the assistance.
No worky worky. The load completed and then boots the splash screen shows and then stays there.
Any ideas?
Try to remove the battery and let it out for at least half an hour. Then put it back in and see what it does then.
I thought the same thing too. So when it got done last night, out of frustration, I removed the battery and left it there to wait on when I get off work today. I will report back on what happens.
Again I would like to thank you guys for helping me. I really do appreciate it!
STEP 1 install the original manufacturer ROM
T-mobile UK
http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/download_manager_mda_vario.html
T-mobile US
http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/
Search for the original rom for any other
instructions on how to use the original rom can be found here
http://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm23294.htm?&A2L.SERVICE=AboutUpgrading
Put it in the bootloader mode.. ( three color screens )
hope this helps..
cheers

Ok I did that and it gave me ERROR 296: UPGRADE ONLY
Then it tells me that the NBF file cannot be used for my PDA Phone. Please get newer NBF file.
Is there any way I can get the Tmobile splash and IPL\SPL number back to original, it doesnt need to boot all the way into WCE but atleast show the same numbers and splash during boot up?
Or any other way to get this thing to work?
Thanks guys
BTW it is a HTC Wizard from T-mobile.
If you are getting an error 300 you need a newer rom update utility, and regardless if your phone is a G3 or G4 it needs to be unlocked before you flash any rom.. LOAD a OFFICIAL cingular ROM onto your device before going any further, then unlock your phone either via www.imei-check.com or through some of the tools offered here...
Which one should I down load from Cingular? Even though I have a Tmobile phone?
what ipl and spl are you using and what radio are you using. Just post all the numbers from the bootloader
As soon as I get home, I will post them.
Thanks
Ipl 1.01
Spl 3.08
Thanks

uh oh. someone tell me if I'm wrong, but I think this is bad. it's the result of flashing a g4 with g3 or the other way around... keep searching, and good luck.
flash the original t-mobile rom. your phone doesn't appear to be unlocked. good luck
First off I'd like to apologize for what must seem like a duplication of a thousand other "stuck in boot loader" threads, but I've got what appears to be a fairly unique situation here and none of the fixes I've found searching the forum have worked for me.
Yesterday I flashed Dutty's WM6.1 ROM using JumpSPL, everything went fine. Today I went to install one of Niki's radios using JumpSPL again, but it got stuck at 99%. I went through the recovery process (several times) and each time after that got stuck at 0%. I've tried soft and hard resets, every time it comes back to the tricolor boot loader. MTTY doesn't give me the USB port option, even if I disable any and all tasks related to Mobile Device Center. Stock AT&T ROM won't load, says "This update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone." I can't flash HardSPL, after I hit enter it doesn't do anything. I tried the Vista fix available on Modaco, but it's not compatible with 64-bit Vista so I'm SOL there too. I'm really at wits end here, could someone please point me in the right direction? I've read time and time again here that as long as you still get the tricolor screen your phone is not bricked, but I seem to be all out of options and nothing has helped.
The boot screen displays the following:
RUUNBH (Top right corner)
KAIS1*0
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD-8
Please, any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
I don't believe JumpSPL is intended for radio flashing. Flash HardSPL and reflash with a shipped AT&T ROM.
I can't flash HardSPL for some reason, when I press enter in the prompt it brings up nothing happens.
Good job there slick! Did you purposefully ignore all the posts about safely flashing your device?
If you don't mind a little berating & a ton of sarcasm, I may be compelled to take an interest in helping you to fix the device (or to see how badly you've f'd it up & if it can be salvaged at least). Anyway, find me on MSN IM if you want & I'll walk you thru the steps for diagnostics & if possible, recovery.
You'll have to promise not to rush into doing any more stupid things though.

Hi there ...
a friend of my has a same problem with his Vodafone VPA compact V, can I give him your hotmail ?
Or can you my little tutorial ?
thanks in advance .

Managed to get it straightened out, for some reason MTTY 1.42 wasn't working properly with my system but 1.16 did the trick- Rebooted through there and flashed HardSPL then loaded my ROM without a hitch. Thank you everyone for being so responsive and helpful!

Ahhh, one more staisfied customer! Glad I could help out srdjank. Just remember that you can't treat a Kaiser like it's a Wizard. Similar yes, but there are different processes for safely flashing.
So far I've seen that Flashing Radios with JumpSPL is a sure recipe for bad memory blocks. Always, ALWAYS, HardSPL!
i also had the same problem when i tried to sim unlock my mda vario iii in progress screen the progress stuck at 95%. i would appreciate any help to recover the phone. thanks in advance
It seems I'm just another one of the masses who rushed in to flashing their ROM/Radio/etc and now my Tilt is stuck at the bootloader. I've run through the "recover" process and every time I re-power the phone back on, I'm stuck in the red/green/blue/white screen with KAIS1*0, SPL-3.56.0000, CPLD-8 in the red section.
I would greatly appreciate any help in getting my phone back into working order.
You can get me on AIM at ygafip or msn at [email protected].
Thanks in advance.
Sorry - posted in ROM development. Can you move to the appropriate forum?
And you can disregard this ... I was able to successfully flash back to a stock ROM that I downloaded from HTC's website - I then followed the noob guide step-by-step and it seems to be working. I guess what I did wrong was I didn't install the HardSPL thing ... that seems to be the only thing I did differently. I have successfully installed the HardSPL, successfully unlocked my SIM thing, I'm currently installing the new ROM and then should be able to successfully install the new radio ... I guess that's the 4 steps I need to do.
Glad it's sorted.

Hi all, my daughter has a HTC HD2 which i used to own and had previously rooted and was running android fine. She dropped it about 3 weeks ago and put a small crack in the top of the screen but the phone still worked fine. Last week she was using it when it froze. She took the battery out and now it wont boot. I can get it to the bootkoader screen (the 3 colours) and at the top it says that it has hspl 2.08 on but when i connect it to the pc and tried to re-install magldr it either sits there for 10 mins and then says communication error or goes across to 4% and does the same. It must be reading the phone because if i try to re-install hspl it knows what version is on the phone but wont let me change it. Is it bricked? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
i fear the worst. although i am not a full experienced hacker, i fear your fone is bricked

Give me a thanks if you found this post helpful
