There are several suggestions there on reviving a possibly bricked phone.

BTW:It really helps if you tell us what IPL, SPL, OS versions you are on (those numbers that show up when you reboot). Also what type of phone you have (G3 or G4).
im sorry...it says 2.25 for both...however on the shelltool it says 2.26 so i dont even know anymore..
i did follow that tut....the problem is..i cant seem to flash from the bootloader screen...the RUU wont flash to my phone..it gives me an error when its checking phone info...o and its a G3 phone..(to the best of my knowladge)..when i started my rom was 2.25.11.1

Why are you doing shell tool with a G3 (I've seen where some G3's have been bricked with shell tool is used on them)? Did you try to flash the Wizard Love ROM? That seems to help in a lot of situations.
So again, more info helps. What is the exact error you are getting. And what rom are you trying to install? Is your phone CID Unlocked? May be worth trying to go back down to the Button Rom and doing the CID Unlock again.
PROBLEM SOLVED!
i dont know what was wrong..really..i just restarted my comp...and downgraded to a stock rom..and it worked fine!
man you have no idea how much i was freakin out..
thanks for all your help! i really appriate it!
time to try again
Hi all, i am stuck, i need the help of the experts in either saying my 2 Qtek 9100s are bricked - chuck them or, they are retreivable.
Here goes:
2 X Qtek 9100 made by T-mobile - emei if needed.
Both devices stuck on the boot screen, but will both go in to Tri colour screen for flashing, but fail flashing (with several roms), i think they have button rom, its a beer glass.
GSM: - 01.12.10
OS: - 1.5.4.2
ipl 1.01 and spl 2.24
Can these be revived?
Thanks.
A Wizard by T-Mobile is a "MDA Vario", you can't have a Qtek9100 by T-Mobile. Anyway..
Have you tried flashing official ROM while they are in bootloader mode (tri colour)? Does the flashing process went smoothly? Does the IPL/SPL change when you flash the latest ROM? Give more info.
More info
At present both of them are stuck on the info below, i cant reflash them with anything else now.
Official T-mob rom 2.26 will not work...think the error was [239] or something.
Thanks.

both IPL AND SPL need to be the same

Since your ipl/spl are 1.xx just follow the sticky by Dr. P at the top of this forum. You will start at the step running lokiwiz as you don't have to downgrade. Then upgrade to an official 2.xx rom. After that you can flash a custom rom.
errors
Various error messages with various roms.
Invalid vendor
Invalid nkbf file
Upgrade only
I believe that these devices were upgraded by a user who perhaps did not fully unlock them.
Is it possible these devices would exhibit these error if they were flashed with a G4 rom, or would they just not boot if that was the case?
Thanks ALL

Well, the only difference between a G4 and a G3 rom is that the G4 rom will not contain IPL/SPL. If you flashed a G4 rom in a G3 device you are fine. If you flashed a G3 rom into a G4 device then you have bricked your devices.
In your case you haven't finished the unlock/downgrade process. like mentioned above you seem to have missed step 16.
You need to re-flash the button rom to get both the IPL and SPL to 1.01. Once that is done then flash an OFFICIAL carrier rom (T-Mobile 2.26 suggested). When you have completed that then your IPL/SPL will both be 2.26. From THIS point you will be able to flash a custom rom, you will have no success until then. The unlocking guide that is stickied contains everything you need to recover from your situation.
The 2 steps that most newbies forget is to downgrade a second time to get IPL/SPL to 1.01 and after you are completely unlocked then upgrade to an official carrier rom that includes IPL/SPL (note this unlocking procedure is not for G4 devices -- doing this will brick them) Once your IPL/SPL are 2.xx THEN you can flash custom roms.
Unlocking them
Thanks ZZan, i think though i have actually blown the rom with button, but it does not bring the ipl/spl down to 1.01, it appears to blow the rom and complete 100% reboots and comes up with button Beer glass and goes no further.....
Err help?

Have you tried booting into bootloader and putting your carrier's latest rom back into it? I would suggest this. If all works and you can get completely back into the phone, you could try to unlock again starting from the beginning.
The only way you could have really hurt your device is if it was a G4 before you started, or interrupted the flash process while the bootloaders were being written. I don't think it would even boot up to that screen, or flash to 100% if this were the case though. It sounds like a bad flash from the first button attempt. I would suggest using a carrier rom from the carrier that the phone is locked to to get it back to working status. Once there then you can try to downgrade and unlock again.
Are they G3 or G4
How do i tell again, something to do with the ipl/spl revisions?
You can also try re-downloading the button rom and performing the downgrade again. I have the button rom in my sig. it's possible the rom may be damaged in some way.
G3 or G4.. from the wiki
A G3 Wizard will have the following
IPL: 1.xx or 2.xx or 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has TWO 0's.).
SPL: 1.xx or 2.xx or 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has TWO 0's.)
A G4 Wizard will have the following
IPL: 2.xx.000x (Note that this version has THREE 0's.)
SPL: 2.xx.000x (Note that this version has THREE 0's.)
button rom
Any ideas where i can get this rom from?
thanks.
Ignore me
just seen it on your footer
It flashes but....
it goes all the way through 100%, reboots and sits on rom boot screen exibiting:
IPL 1:01
SPL 2.24
GSM 01.12.10
os 1.5.4.2
And a nice picture of a beer glass....
Help, should i reflash again? i Have done it 3 times and it still sits on boot....
Thanks.

You said your phone was a T-Mobile phone. Flash the T-Mobile 2.26 rom and see if you can get it to finish booting. If so THEN you can retry the button rom. You are in a corrupt state right now. Whatever caused it, it doesn't look like the button rom is going to recover you from it. Flash the official carrier rom for your phone and get it back to working status first. Once you can use the device and phone then you can go back and start from the beginning of the unlocking thread.
T-mob original
I have tried T-mob original (RUU_Prodigy_2210206_22102109_021911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship.exe)
[294] invalid vendor ID
I have tried t-mob (RUU_Prodigy_1060204_105_11210_TMO_UK_Ship.exe) using NoVendorID and nk.nbf from above rom - Flashed 100% complete - rebooted - stuck on Button boot screen (beer Glass) and not booting.
Button itself will flash, with the same result, looks like its doing it then reboot, halt on beer glass.
I have i trully bricked these two? i cant have they flash and go to boot loader surely they would not do this if i had totally bricked them???
Help....
T-mob
Weird, it has upgraded the IPL to 1.06 (from 1.04) though, does this mean anything to anyone?

SIM unlock is not the same as CID unlock.
You cannot CID unlock from 2.xx bootloaders. The Lokiwiz thread states this numerous times.
You didn't read first.
Read the Sticky: The Definitive guide to CID Unlocking and Rom Upgrading G3 Wizards.
Don't skip ANY steps (well since you are stuck in bootloader you will just have to flash the button rom from bootloader and won't have an activesync connection, but don't skip any of the final steps.)
yea i got it fixed.... someone was walking e through the steps over aim and never told me to downgrade.. i was directed to the walkthrough on here and got it working and even got it to flash thanks
1-15. Done
16. Watch the rebooting of your PDA, if BOTH IPL and SPL are 1.xx then great. Quite probably your IPL will be 1.xx and your SPL will be 2.xx. Rerun the button 1.05 ROM downgrade a second time and it will become 1.x on both IPL and SPL. You don't need to redo the unlocking.
when i try this I can't get the SPL to go back, IPL is fine, but i've tried 4 sucessive times, no chance..
I then tried this :-
Step 17 - Download and install the 3.08 IPL/SPL rather than the 2.26, your choice! (I suggest doing the T-Mobile 2.26 first but that's me )
that went ok, and then I tried flashing roms, but the only one I can get to work is the Wizzard Love ROM.
I'd love to run WM6 but i can't, if i try the other ROMS they flash ok, but I just go back to the Wizzard ROM when it reloads
any ideas ?
very many thanks, Will

"17. My suggestion, take for what it's worth, is to download and install the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM
This will give you a strong 2.26 IPL and SPL to work with."
'Now you SHOULD have a IPL and SPL of 2.26 to work with. If not, you screwed up! Don't attempt to install someone's hard work and ***** before you do these steps!'
EDIT for Step 17 - Download and install the 3.08 IPL/SPL rather than the 2.26, your choice! (I suggest doing the T-Mobile 2.26 first but that's me
Well,
You missed the all important step 17,flashing the T-mobile 2.26,this cud have given you solid IPL/SPL 2.26 to work on,Instead opted for Edit to step 17,flashing 3.08.
Your device is not CID unlocked,download WST tool and check the status of your phone,
secondly you shudn't have upgraded your ipl/spl to 3.08,till you were sure your phone is cid unlock and both the ipl/spl are the same.
anyway download the wst tool to check your phone's status and post the report here,
bugger...
i tried another rom and am stuck in the bootloader...
i have 3.08 for IPL and SPL
I think the WST will not work from the bootloader (and i can't find it to download)
any further sugestions ?
I have tried both the t-mobile and button roms
tia will try not to do any more damage ;-)

In this particular situation no rom will flash,the only option is to get the IPL/SPL back to 1.xx,only than you can unlock.
If you are in boot loader,try to flash buttons 1.05 again,if worked,ok. otherwise download the latest official rom from the carriers site and flash,it will work and bring back your phone in working status.then flash button's 1.05 to unlock with lokiwiz02b.
Are you having any sdcard in your phone,remove it,it'll help,sometimes sdcard freezes the boot loader,by removing it,boot loader mode is released,good luck
many thanks, i came across a IPL SPL 2.26 only ROM and this I managed to get to flash, and with your advise I now have WM6
thanks, Will

Glade it's up and running
I want to install WM^on my Vario, but I can't get further than step 17- installing 2.26 Rom.....
Everything did go fine, I have IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.06, en when I want to update tot 2.26, i get an error [294] INVALID VENDER ID
Now I'm stuck at the RGB screen.
So I installed button's rom again, now i have a working Vario, but when i try it again, AGAIN the INVALID VENDER ID error, stuck at the RGB screen...
wtf?
Use WST to make sure you have successfully CID unlocked your device.
If it is confirmed, get another version of RUU from other ROMs and copy nk.nbf to that RUU.

Your phone is still CID unlocked,after flashing and downgrading with Button's Rom 1.05,you are supposed to use lokiwiz 02b to SIM/CID unlock the phone and then upgrade to T-mobile 2.26.
Cheers!
yes, that was the problem, i didn't read the "press C in lokiwiz.bat'- part of the tutorial!
Now i'm running tnt touchflo
But is there any Dutch translation of TNT? Or Dutch WM6 ROM wich I can use? Or do I have to go back to WM5?
