[Q] Help! I bricked my HTC Titan - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tied to update my HTC Titan (Vodafone branded) to Tango with Zune via the disconnect trick. I updated with success to 8112 version but when updating to 8173 the phone entered in an endless loop at the restart (after reaching the vodafone logo screen it reboot again).
My phone was not unlocked.
Please give me some suggestion on how to recover.
Thanks

If you can enter the boot loader i.e. pressing vol+ and vol- together with power on, then just flash a stock ROM from Eternity thread.

Thanks,
I dowloaded one of the stock rom i found and tried to flash it with the ROMUpdateUtility but I got the invalid Vender ID. I will try with another stock ROM before going to HTC for repair.

Try to flash stock Vodafone rom.

Where I can find it?

Did you ever try just reverting the update attempt? Zune automatically creates a backup (more properly, a "restore point") before installing an update. To put the phone in recovery mode, turn it off, then hold the Camera button fully and turn it on. The phone will boot straight to the black&white update screen, which is alo used for recovery. Start the Zune software and connect your phone via USB, and Zune should offer to restore the phone for you. Much less hassle and data loss than a new ROM would be.

Thanks,
Done but Zune give an error saying it has no restore point.
Perhaps I I did the upgrade via Zune as guest.

Here you can find all the Titan ROMS I know ...

Could you paste the name of the ROM you already tried to flash ?

I have tried the following ROMs:
IMG_Eternity_HTC_Europe_1.08.401.06_Radio_16.23.02.09_2_16.24.00.23U_Signed_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh
IMG_Eternity_HTC_Europe_1.09.401.02_Radio_16.23.02.09_A_16.24.00.23_Signed_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh
IMG_Eternity_HTC_Europe_2.01.401.04_Radio_16.23.03.17_16.27.00.23_Signed_ETERNITY_RELEASE.nbh
Any Help?

Unroot failed, now phone is stuck in Fastboot loop

Hi Guys,
my HTC Desire GSM is stuck in Fastboot and won't boot into the ROM. The background to this issue is that I installed S-Off and then ClockworkMod and flashed Cyogenmod 7 to see if it would fix a reboot issue on the phone. The damn thing just reboots itself when the CPU is used heavily...
Anywho, after realising that Cyogen wouldn't resolve the issue I flashed the standard Virgin UK rom back over it and upgraded to 2.22.351.2 via the system update feature. The problem was that ClockwordMod was still installed and I had to get rid of it to sent the phone off for repair to Virgin!
So I did further research and found that I could flash HBoot via the AlphaRev.nl downgrader tool. I downloaded it and popped it into the root of my SD card and it flashed the bootloader back to Hboot 0.80.0000. That should have been it, but all of the sudden the phone no longer boots into the Rom. All it does is to power on and then go into Fastboot. That's it! When I try putting the standard Virgin Rom back onto the SD it tries to load it and then says "Main Version is older!" "Update Fail!".
How do I get around this now? The phone doesn't boot, so I can't re-flash S-Off and start again, not am I able to run the stock Virgin Rom within Windows because it complains about the versions.
Is there any ways around this situation? I just want to get the phone back to stock so I can send it to Virgin and get it repaired.
P.S. I *have* used the search function and spent the last 4 hours testing various things but I'm now stuck.
Cheers Guys!

8107 Update - Reboot Loop

So I tried to apply the 8107 update yesterdayevening (Unlocked Orange Omnia 7 w/dev & interop unlock). It got to step 9 (Rebooting Phone) but at this point it got stuck in a reboot loop (white Samsung logo comes up for a few seconds, disappears and then comes back ad infinitum). I pulled the battery to shut the phone off and then looked around for a solution. The Samsung Device Update Support Tool was suggested so I gave that a shot. It applied it's update then rebooted the device and I'm back to a reboot loop.
Any ideas what I can do next? Is there anything I can try or do I need to take it to a service centre?
try a hard reset...if this not help u must flash a new rom...but first try to load the backup from zune...i dont think u must go to service center...but of course...if the bootloader is bricked u have a problem....
Sent from my OMNIA7 using Board Express
When I press down Camera+VolumeDown+Power to get to the format/hard reset screen, the format screen flashes up briefly and then the phone goes into it's reboot loop again. Any ideas what that means?
I can get the phone into download mode though (Camera+VolumeUp+Insert USB cable). Is there no way for Zune to restore from download mode (a la iTunes and iPhones restore mode) or is my only option now to flash a new rom from download mode?

[Q] Bricked Phone

Hi All,
I installed the AT&T RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.82.502 and the phone was working perfectly, then I tried to replace the two files for the Advanced Power Menu mod into the Framework folder as the install directions say. After the reboot, the phone gets stuck on the white HTC ONE TM screen. I then rebooted into the recovery screen by pressing the power and Vol down key and did a factory reset and I still get stuck on the same screen after the reboot. Any way I can reinstall the AT&T RUU_Evita_UL_Cingular_US-1.82.502 or get out of this Bootloop? Thanks in advance
download the ruu and htc sync and ...reflash
How do I do this, HTC Sync does not pick up the phone and since I do not have CWM how to I flash the RUU from this state. I saw that you previously said to another member about ARUWIzard, will this work for me?
since you are on att therefore you dont need that.
download the ruu from this post.

and run it with htc sync installed.
Got it to reflash the RUU. Thanks for your help.

HTC Touch Pro2, Bootloader Crashed?

Hi and please help as right now I dont even have a backup phone.
I tried to install android on my phone by following the procedure from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566955
I copied RHODIMG.NBH and CM7****.zip in the root of the SD card and restarted my phone with vol -, went into bootloader and installed successfully, since then my phone starts with official HTC screen and then goes black. I tried installing it again couple of times and it ended successfully but still no progress but something happened.
Current Status of the phone.
1. I can get in bootloader with vol- key but it keeps saying no image found where as I have tried putting different RHODIMG.NBH of different ROMs, even stock rom too but it just not read it.
2. Phone starts, shows HTC logo and then black screen.
3. I was running a custom ROM before with Hard-SPL bootloader, so its not stock SPL.
Please help, I would greatly appreciate....

H60-L12 softbrick help !!!

Hi guys,
as it has been almost a week I am trying to fix my phone, I am running out of ideas and asking you for help !
As I mentioned about a week ago without a reason my phone has shut down ( it was used as a gps on google maps and was a bit hot).
Since the it was stuck on on huawei logo and restart over and over(boot loop).
I started with factory data and reset, which went smothly i guess(it has changed language to Chinese) but didn't help to start the phone.
I have tried then to flash stock rom( tried 3 i have found ) from memory card in dload folder. Phone will only start updating when usb cable is in - without it wont, and keep flashing logo and restart.
Unfortunately none of the roms installed properly, all hang up on nearly end(98-99) %.
I tried to follow procedure then with Honor Multi Tool - after extracting images BOOT, CUST, RECOVERY, SYSTEM tried to upload them to my phone, but cannot write anything on the phone, which brought me to FASTBOOT& RESCUE MODE, which I am able to turn on, but it says my phone is LOCKED and until is unlocked I am stuck...
I went to HUAWEI website to apply for unlocking code, but among IMEI and SN there is also needed Product ID which you can obtain by sending a code in your phone. since I cannot turn my phone on, I cannot get my Product ID...
I have emailed huawei regarding this, but without luck.
The battery is fine and charging to 100%.
Android 4.4 with Emotion UI 2.3.
Can anyone please HELP..!!!
Follow this procedure to flash official Stock firmware package:
Download your phone firmware on which you were previously on.
Boot into bootloader mode by switching off the phone then pressing only the Vol DOWN button, and connecting it to PC simultaneously.
After doing this put the UPDATE.APP in dload folder of your external SDCARD.
Switch off your phone, and press Vol UP + Vol DOWN + Power button simultaneously.
Your device will now get to the full stock firmware.
