I was running xelencin's latest custom rom. I have used his previous versions and all was good.
This one hung at 98%. I was just letting it do its thing when out of nowhere, BSOD. So now my phone is just sitting at 98%. I thought there was a forum post here about recovering but I'm not able to find it.
Thanks.
Update: After a soft reset, I am back to the multicolor screen. When I plug it in, it says USB in the bottom left hand corner. Device manager shows a PocketPC USB Sync device as well.
When I perform a hard reset (Comm Button + Voice Dial held, then press soft reset with stylus), I am taken right back to the same multicolor screen.
You're at the bootloader.
This is a Good Thing(tm).
At this point, you should be able to rerun any (assuming you are CID unlocked) any RUU ROM upgrade. Let it do its thing and you'll be good to go.

For those that get stuck here in the future:
I had to extract the installer so as I could get past the CID unlock. I then ran "ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe" and all went well!

Yep, I went thru the exact same thing yesterday when trying to upgrade to 2.24. My PC decided to shutdown (not restart, a complete instant shutdown!) at 8% flashing. I decided to grab the "Mr Clean AKU2.3 ROM" which already had the ROM flash program available separately and then just put in the .nbf file I wanted and it was good to go
if your not cid unlocked, then what? xtract what? to wherehow can i transfer any thing, it seems though the device screen says usb, the avtivesync doesnt detects my phone. n?m, ive got it

Hello folks I desperately need help, Ive just bricked my brand spunky new wizard G4 IPL/SPL 2.21.0001. I tried to do a Rom upgrade from shipped Rom to WM6, xm6 by mfrazz. I went through the process to 99% and then the progress meter changed from blue to red 99%, it stood there for awhile and gave the Error code 302. The screen is now in rainbow colours, it doesn’t do nothing. I need help please.

Thanks for the advise, No I did not CID unlock it, I read some where in the post it’s wasn’t necessery to CID unlock G4 wizard, unless I was day dreaming! I need detail help pls, the wizard is not responding to a any treatment from it current state. It’s in the rainbow coma if I may call it, if I take out the battery it obviously goes off completely. If I put the battery back in the rainbow colours comes back on and it doesn't do anything. In This circumstance, how am I supposed to flash it back to cingular ship rom, please explain? Many thanks
All you need to do is download the official T-Mobile ROM from their site and re-flash it. The fact that you are in the "rainbow" screen is a good thing because that's the bootloader and where you need to be to flash. After that, you may need to go through all the postings about flashing a G4 again a time or 2 because if you had read them you would have already known how to fix this problem.
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLOM!!!! ok can some one please tell me what i need to do to fix this problom im at the rainbow screen and i am just stuck! is there anyway to just get my phone back to normal?????????
First, connect your phone to your PC. Don't use an USB hub, plug it directly into the PC!
Then, start the phone. When it is in "rainbow" mode, just execute the flash utility (the original provider ROM) on your PC to begin the flash process..
This should work!

Hi,
I wanted to update my trinity in the version of S300+ (French) with the original HTC ROM.
Not only it didn't work, but I lost my phone, I cannot access anything even with Hard Reset and battery removal...
When I want to upgrade, it's going till 1% and then it stops and I'm getting a message "Error 286" Cannot connect with phone.
I cannot hard reset, I cannot do anything! When I hard reset, I'm always coming back to the bootloader (I think it's the bootloader, the screen with colors, where it says numbers and it's says USB).
Any idea? A upgrade with miniSD will help?
Thanks!
Start flash utility again and wait untill it starts again (can take sometime).
I had it to when I first flashed a rom.
Hi,
I tried it already, but it's always blocking at 1% of progress and it's telling me in the computer Error 286, and the phone resets and comes back to the bootloader...
Any idea?
I just tried now to update the ROM with the HTC_Trinity_SIM_CID_Unlock_v1, it's going till 14% but then it stops...
Any idea, please?
I cannot send back my device to warantee because updating roms is forbidden...
This will solve all your problems:

Put the phone in BOOTLOADER, then disactive ACTIVESYNC (form menu). After then start MTTY (you found it in the forum) set it on USB and then give the command:
task 32 Enter
task 28 Enter
task 2A Enter
info 8 Enter
task 8 Enter
After the last command the PDA restart and then you make a normal flash.

That was the same rom that toasted my Qtek 9100 and now I'm stuck at the 99% mark before I get update:[302] error. Sorry didn't mean to steal your thread m8 but when I aksed the forum if they could help me out I got zero response ...so mines a brick right now.
BTW: I've tried the Wizard Love ROM but that was spanish I think and comes up with "INVALIDO" or something similar. I've fully charged the battery, removed the SD card and disabled "allow USB connections" in activesync, along with killing off wcescomm.exe ...but still no joy. Hope you get sorted with yours soon.
Original ROM's are easy to find, just go to either your phone service providers website and it should be on there, or go to HTC's website and they'll either have it or have links to where you can get it. Before you tried flashing XM6r2a, did you CID unlock your phone? That may be your problem.
ADD+, your phones not a brick yet if you can get in to the bootloader, which since you said that you tried to flash the wizard love ROM I'm guessing you can still do. You should also re-flash the original ROM that was on there and see if you can at least get that one to load back on there.

Got mine fixed by using the Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102.exe from the link in the definitive guide sticky. So as they say RTFM!!
I have a G4 Wizard which is stuck in Bootloader mode (i.e. the multi-colored screen).
No matter what ROM I flash onto the unit, it always reboots back into Bootloader mode. I have tried a variety of ROMS including Wizard_Love, and vanilla WM5 and WM6 ROMS.
About three days before this occurred, I had flashed TNT.1933 (Professional + HTC Home) ROM onto the unit. About three days of running TNT I noticed that the cellular radio levels were starting to act up. So I reflashed Wizard_Love with the intention of subsequently reflashing TNT on top of Wizard_Love (this is how I have always performed flashes, by layering the intended flash onto Wizard_Love, and I've never had any problems). Well, this time as soon as Wizard_love had successfully flashed (according to the update utility), my Wizard got stuck in Bootloader mode. It's been stuck since.
I've since tried re-flashing a number of ROMs with no success. The Update utility says that the flashing is successful and there are never any errors, but the Wizard itself always reboots into the multi-color Bootloader screen. I simply cannot bypass this screen.
Any HELP would be appreciated. At this time my Wizard is unusable. And, I really miss it!

Yes, I've tried several hard and soft resets. It still gets stuck at the multi-colored Bootloader screen.
I have had this same probllem with my 8525 atleat 4 to 5 times. The only thing that worked for me was to download the most recent flash for my phone from my carrier. At that point no more problems, I can then flash any ROM I want from there.

Thanks, I thought of that as well. The phone is a T-Mobile (US). Unfortunately, I have been unable to find a copy of the original ROM. The ROM is no longer available on XDA-Developers FTP server and both the forum and wiki links are broken. Also, I can't get it off the T-Mobile web site since it asks me for a T-Mobile phone number, which I do not have. Here's the T-Mobile download page:
http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/
Does anyone have an alternate download address for original T-Mobile ROM? Of can someone with a T-Mobile phone number download the file for me. Thanks.
URGENTLY looking for a copy of the original T-Mobile (US) ROM - either WM5 or WM6. I'm stuck in Bootloader mode and I'm advised that reloading the original ROM might revive my Wizard.
Here's the T-Mobile download link, but it asked for a T-Mobile phone number which I do not have (I'm not a T-Mobile customer):

I've searched everywhere and I can't find an answer.
I purchased an HTC Touch for Sprint today, booted it up/unlocked it, and flashed Android. I realized that I never setup Power Vision in WinMo prior to unlocking/installing Android. I've tried to reinstall the Windows Mobile 6.1 stock rom that came with the phone so that I can get to the EPST menu and update my PV info, but the rom freezes at 29% when I try to flash it.
I'm not vary experienced, so please pardon me if there is a stupidly easy answer. I've flashed a 6.5 rom, but I couldn't figure out how to get to the EPST menu on it to auto-configure my data settings.
If anyone can help me out, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
i also had a lock-up when flashing the official sprint ROM once, and i created a new windows account, re-downloaded the rom, and it worked. no idea why
Hey, what do you mean by a new windows account? Thanks!

If your using the unlocker .40 then that's why, use unlocker .34, only use unlocker .40 if your relocking your phone and flashing back to stock to send in for warranty repair, some phones don't like to flash from usb when relocking.
you might be able to get it to flash from the memory card if you put the nbh from the exe onto the mem card, etc.. or just try to flash a 6.5 rom.
if it just so happens that you can't flash anything and you can't go anywhere past the bootloader, take it into the store, tell them you turned it on and it wouldn't boot and they will take it into the back and reflash it, then start again from the beginning, but remember to provision your phone first.

put your phone in bootloader mode (tricolored screen, hold camera and power, then press and release soft reset). connect to your computer. download andn run the official sprint gps rom (not the stock rom; can use with unlocked phone, won't mess with the unlocker, here, under shipped gps rom newer version in post 1), and allow it to flash your phone. get 3g working however you can - even call sprint if you have to. then flash back to android.
