[Q] HTC Vox (S710) doesn't boot - General Topics

Hello!
I have a problem with my HTC Vox (yes, there are still people who have one )
It started out with the display getting different colour tones as soon as i slided out the keypad too slowly.
One day however, the phone didn't boot up again, means, that the HTC logo shows, then the Windows Logo too, but suddenly it starts flackering and then it stays so.
I already tried the hard reboot and since Active Sync doesn't seem to recognize the phone anymore i'm really desperate about this. I hope somebody can help since I would love to keep that phone as long as possible!
Greetings from Germany
Marco

I had this happen on an HTC Wizard. I tried lots of things. It's happened to me twice. The first time I got out of it by leaving the battery out for around 6 hours (and also no connection to the USB). The second time, that didn't work. The second time, while it was on the white screen, I made sure it was powered from USB, pulled the battery, put it back in immediately, turned it on, and it was fine.
Good luck! I know how frustrating it is!

Bt Htc S710 Original Rom

Hello forum members,
would you please help me have the BT HTC S710 Original ROM? I have only seen the BT HTC S620, which when I tried to flash with to rebrand, blanked my HTC S710 screen. When I turn it on, only the two green lights come on either side of the phone ear piece.
It means that a hard reset is not visible on my screen, there is no tri-colour display either.
I have tried other ROMS, and get invalid id errors and error 270. I have tried Dr Gonzo and related ROMS.
It's now three days, no phone no pim, I am lost.
Thanks for your attention.
YOSEFE.
PS. You may PM me if convenient.
Hi YOSEFE,
I have the same problem
I tried the 620 rom and just have the 2 green LED's. I cannot get a bootloader screen and attempts to flash new roms get to 3% and then I get errors.
Did you ever sort this problem out?
Paul.
Have you unlocked ur USPL in ur phone?
You tried to flash a S620 ROM to a S710???? Look in the Wiki, there is a link to the official ROMs on the ftp...

Yes, I'm afraid I did, by mistake, flash 620 ROM to the 710 [feels rather stupid!]
Not happy with BT’s [mobile operator] own ROM and software that went on the phone, I successfully flashed Dr. Martin Gonzo’s Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 and have been using it for a couple of months but when BT launched their new phone software, I decided to try it but because it won’t work with WM 6.1, I needed to then revert back to BT’s old ROM and this was the only one available that I could find [feels rather stupid again].
The screen is completely black; only green LED's on each side of the earpiece shows any sign of life.
Connecting the phone via ActiveSync shows “HTC-S620 Connected” and I am able to browse the files on the phone but not having a display on the phone, I am limited to what I can do.
I have tried running RUU_Vox_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.1_4.1.13.54_03.10.90_Ship.exe but ActiveSync connection is lost and I hear the Windows hardware removed sound shortly after the progress bar is shown.
I’m at a loss as to what to try
Paul.
Shut it down, then hold down camera button and plug in the usb cable. The boot screen should appear and you should be able to flash the normal ROM!
I cannot get the boot screen, or any screen for that matter.
I have tried taking the battery out to make sure the phone is off. Reinserting that battery then holding the camera button down and then inserting the usb lead. The keypad lights up for a few seconds then goes out. ActiveSync then connects but the screen is still black
Paul.
[Edited: Sorry duplicate post]
Sorry for replying to my own post but a quick update...
I have managed to bring the phone back to life and reinstall Dr. Martin Gonzo’s Windows Mobile 6.1 v1.1 on it again.
This is partly assumption and not particularly accurate but the original poster (YOSEFE) might find this useful.
By installing the S620 rom on the S710, not only did I make the screen go blank, I think all the keys ended up remapped and mixed up, therefore any attempt to install Gonzo’s rom ultimately ended in failure because when the phone beeped and wanted a keypress to continue, pressing the left softkey for ‘OK’ or ‘Yes’ did not work because it had been remapped to do something else.
What worked for me is that when the phone beeped during the uspl_116_jockyw.bat install, I pressed the X or C key (I can’t remember the exact one now). One of these keys must have been the ‘OK’ or ‘Yes’ key after the S620 rom muddled things up. I only know this by trial and error over the period of today.
To my glee, the backlight lit up on the display and after a bit of tinkering, I’m back in action again
I won’t be installing a rom designed for another model again!
Paul.
Bat 'n' Ball,
sorry for not returning here to see your post. I will remember the possibility of pressing "X" or "C", should I make the same mistake as before, although like you, I should never do that ever again. However, technology being what it is, who knows?
In the end BT got me sorted out.
Thanks for sharing.

[Q] HTC HD2 Black Screen: out of ideas!

Hello there,
I have recently received an HTC HD2 from a friend of a friend of mine. It didn't work and was stuck at a black screen.
After receiving the HD2 I saw that the HD2 was in a boot loop of some sort. Every time I would turn it on it would vibrate once, and then turn off. Then it would vibrate once again and it turned off again. The backlighting of the screen would turn on, and then after a certain period of time (maybe like 5 seconds) they turn off again.
Somehow (by luck, maybe) I managed to boot the phone into windows mobile 6.5. I still got a black screen, but I could hear the sound that the phone makes after it boots windows. I then attached the phone to the computer and downloaded the latest HTC HD2 Windows 6.5 ROM and flashed it to the phone as standard procedure. Now, every time I turn the phone on I hear the sounds of windows booting up and I can connect with it using windows mobile device center. I also hear sounds when I push the buttons on the phone.
TL;DR-> Black screen, phone reacts to input.
Question: will replacing the screen fix the phone? Or is it some other component failing. Booting windows proves the phone isn't bricked, right?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, you can always try to boot into three colored screen, by turning the phone on while holding the DownVol key at the same time. If this doesn't work you would need to buy a new screen to see if that fixes the problem.
Heres a link to amazon where you can buy a new LCD, you can also search how to change the screen on Youtube

[Q] Startup problem after installing Android on my HTC HD2

White Screen Problem - HTC TyTN II

Hello everyone,
My secondary phone is a HTC TyTN II. It's running Shifu V4.3 Windows 6.5 Custom ROM with Hard-SPL 3.49 and Radio Version 1.70.19.09. Recently, my phone's screen turned white and didn't go no matter how many times I soft-reset or hard-reset it . It happens when the phone is idle for long periods of time, like perhaps 3-4 hours. It also happens when I download 2-3 apps simultaneously from Windows Marketplace. When I do so, random multi-coloured lines appear all over the screen and then it turns completely white. I still hear the sounds when I slide out the keyboard or when I tap on the screen. Could someone please help me out? I really love this phone and I don't want to leave it in this state. I tried searching the forums for anything related to this, but unfortunately, couldn't find any thread or post that was helpful
Thanks alot for any help or advice you guys offer .
