thanks in advance
This seems to be also my Problem.
The first step (Hard-SPL) flashing works fine, so does the second. But then, after I am told to watch my devices screen, a wierd error message pops up un my PC and I can't do anything.
Does anyone have any Idea whats wrong?

(Oh and by the way, this threads topic is really bad! how should anyone find us here if you write nothing other than "Help!" I'd recommend "Cheetah unlocking failed" or something more explicit!)
Possible Solution:
Take a look at this Post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1640430&postcount=151
Actually reding other thrads is sometimes a good Idea ;-)... hopfully this will work for me...
Dear Folks at XDA,
I would like to ask for you help with my HTC Touch Pro 2. I recently tried to update it to the new AthineOS CHome TF3D WM6.5 Manila ROM v 1.0 and unfortunately I failed.
The problem is that my phone now freezes at the black startup screen with the Touch Pro 2 logo and the red codes at the bottom.
I've flashed the ROM several times before and never got this issue.
Due to the fact that the phone doesn't finish the boot-up and I thus I can't get ActiveSync I'm afraid I messed up my phone for ever.
Please someone tell me I got a way out of this, I'd appreciate it very much.
Greetz,

umm.... I don't think you can change the firmware just yet on the CDMA version of the phone... if you used a HardSPL that's available in the Rhodium forums then you probably used a GSM specific ROM on your CDMA phone... not sure what to tell you other than making sure you read the CDMA forum before trying something so risky. Best solution, unless someone knows how fix your phone in it's current state, is to toss it under your car and run it over and try to cash in on the insurance.
Problem solved!
Hey guys,
I got my HTC Touch Pro 2 functioning again. Thought I'd post the solution for other people who might encounter the same issue. I don't exactly know what the problem was. I'm assuming a non-compatible ROM or something, but after opening 30 tabs in my browser and reading my eyes out I found that if you put your phone into bootloader mode and connect it through usb to your computer you can flash the ROM without using activesync.
So I turned my phone off, pressed the power and Volume Down button simultaneously and then used the Stock ROM upgrade software from HTC to restore my phone
This solution beats the hell outta "run it over and try to cash in on the insurance" if I say so myself!

I am glad you have recovered the beautiful device; and thanks for sharing a working solution.

Good job!
big thanks for solution.
You just saved my life!!!
Don't get our hopes up! This is the wrong forum. CDMA TP2s can't be flashed at all yet.
This was a life saver post so a quick bump for anyone that needs it.
I unlocked my CDMA phone, installed a few roms -- decided to go back to my stock rom default (which was Telus) -- reinstalled and bam -- bricked.
Well, technically it's not a brick if you can get back into the bootloader to reflash. So no worries everyone. If everyone reads instructions well enough we should hopefully see zero "real" bricks. Or at most, just enough to only build bbq pit rather than a house.
I think my phone is truly bricked
I was unlocking my phone (the HTC Touch Pro 2 <Verizon>) and I was using a Diamond unlocker (I thought it would be fine), but during the process there was a connection error and now my phone seems to be bricked. I can't get it to even turn on, get to a bootloader screen, or anything even remotely close.
The one odd thing that it does though, is when I connect it to my computer, it pops up and my computer recognizes there is a device there. In my Device Manager there is an unknown device called: Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM. I have tried every combination of two buttons, including holding down the reset button with all of them, but nothing gets me anywhere.
If anyone could help, I would really appreciate it. Let me know if you need any more information.
my cdma is rebooting endlessley i reflashed stock rom and evorything. it seriously dosnt want to work. its most sadness... i am cashing in on the insurence. but they are going to send me a refurb..
spend 600$ on a phone got inurnce i hope the used one dosnt fail me.

I did the same exact thing to mt TP2. Same outcome.
We have to learn somehow....
That stinks man. If you did, then your phone is truly bricked. You are going to have to get a replacement or switch to another phone because there is nothing you can do to get it going again. I tried everything possible and eventually just ordered a replacement. I have it now and it's working beautifully, but needless to say I am a little scared away from any more unlocking or flashing for a while.
If you read carefully you dont have to be scared of flashing
I was a noob some time ago but before doing anything I took care of reading and understanding before doing nothing.
lesson learned
By now I have flashed more than 60 times on 3 diferent HTC devices and all were a succes
Hope you get your TP2 working again!
I hope I can get there
Someday I hope to be a flashing expert, but until then I will take it slow and read carefully. Thanks for your encouragement. When I actually get money to pay for the unlock for my TP2, I will let you know how flashing goes.
How do you keep the phone in bootloader? Mine goes right to the press volume instuction screen. Other than that I'm stuck on the black name screen,also my usb will not register in device manager. This was my first try at flashing.

Holy hell, you're not lying. Thanks for coming back to post your solution!
This post saved me at least a few hours of frustration and ever worsening decision making.
So it's totally true???
this situation hasn't solution;
I was unlocking my phone (the HTC Touch Pro 2 <SPRINT>) and I was using a Diamond unlocker (I thought it would be fine), but during the process there was a connection error and now my phone seems to be bricked.

If anyone could help, AND PLEASE somebody tell me , that it can be save it
;9
please help
i have the same problem. is there a way to save my phone?
Hi,
I need your suggestions. I have a T Mobile MDA Vario IV whose digitizer has given up on me. It basically doesnt register the correct input and sometimes it doesnt register anything at all. I have tried all the possible software tricks on it, to no avail.
The phone gave up on me after the first time I installed WM6.5 from NRG.
I cant replace the hardware as it is not available locally in Riyadh and any other way would be too expensive.
So now, I still want to make use of this phone which I used for hardly 3 months. Any suggestions other than using to assault HTC engineers.
Today I received an update message on my HTC 7 Mozart and this lovely message appeared in Zune>Settings>Phone. I went through some support forums and found out the only way to fix it is to hard reset my phone. Rhis is the last thing I would ever do, as I had to hard reset a month or two ago because of another technical problem, so I'm asking for some help from anyone who's experienced that problem aswell. I've got a Windows 7 PC, my phone is Chevron unlocked with 1 or 2 .xap applications on it. Thanks!
Did you ever find a solution that didn't involve hard resetting? I have the same issue with my LG E900 and I haven't found any other solution... :S
OK, I have looked through the forum and threads but cannot yet see my solution so I need help!
Problem.... I have a second hand HTC Orbit 2 running Windows but .... it has car ID and password log-on that I think is a TOM TOM addition and I cannot get passed it and I need to get rid of it....if possible!
I have tried all the listed hard re-sets and they do not work.
If someone suggest re-installing Windows and deleting everything that would be fine by me, but I will need help doing that!
I would just prefer to get rid of the log-on. It is not my main phone it is just a project, I have a XDA Orbit (nice reliable phone)
So lets get the ball rolling ... can you help me?
