Wizard gone dead... - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Browsing through the FTP I came across an AKU 3.something about two weeks ago. I downloaded and installed it on my device.
Everything went well and the device was working for two weeks.
I also installed the SpbPocketPlus.
A couple of days ago, the phone just hang by itself.
I tried restarting it, and it would hang just after entering the PIN.
I tried canceling and not entering the PIN at all. Same.
I tried removing the battery and restarting. Same.
The phone just goes to today and then hangs.
I also tried the safe mode boot. Same.
I tried downgrading to an earlier ROM, no luck.
When the upgrade wizard shuts down activesync, and restarts the phone, the phone stays dead and the wizard tells me that there has been loss or failure to communicate with the device. I tried the steps to recover, still no luck...
Please, someone advise.

G3 & G4
What is that G3 and G4 I see mentioned around here?
Can someone explain?

Bricked my Wizard

I have just been trying to upgrade my Wizard, I have done this many times before, I tried but failed with a few ROM's and last I tried Molski's latest, now, it is just dead, after I try a hard reset, I get the red blue green screen for a few seconds, I even see it connecting to the USB and then the screen just goes black.
Pleas help with anything
Sounds to me you're battery could be empty/dead
It was full last night, so I do not think this is the problem

Try another battery and see.
And keep us posted
I agree, it sounds like your battery is drained. And since it goes to the boot loader, that means your battery will not charge on your phone. You'll have to borrow a battery that is charged, or get someone to charge your battery.

What state did you leave the phone in over night? Was the battery removed, or was the phone fully off..?
Interesting. I seem to have a similar problem. I only get the boot loader screen.
But i can establish a USB connection and update my phone. It will go all the way to 100%. Then the phone will switch off and start new. But instead of loading the OS it goes automatically into the boot loader screen.
Any idea what went wrong here?

Since you haven't told us what you were trying to do when this started, what rom you tried flashing, and what your current IPL / SPL are and whether this is a G3 or G4, no, we don't have any ideas on what is wrong .

I would suggest you try flashing your carrier's latest official rom to get a working device back.
Bricked
If install IPL 3.08 in G4, exist solution or not
One thing to add : if the battery is really low, then it will likely not charge or respond via USB. It is necessary to use the wall charger in this case. It must have something to do with the amount of charging current that can be delivered to a flat battery.

I'm not sure if you are asking a question or what. But if you try to install IPL/SPL 3.08 on a G4 device, your device will be bricked (ie: dead). I did see where someone in the Wizard forum said they were able to do a JTAG recovery and get their G4 back.

You are right, sorry.
I used to have Aserg3.12 Rom on my device (G4). It worked well for at least two months. Suddenly the phone crashed in the middle of a call and didnt react anymore. Hard Reset nothing worked.
I got somehow the Boot Loader Screen back and downgraded to the original rom (QTEK novid, 220734, 2207114). Problem was whilst it finished the upload process until 100% and restarted the phone, it got stuck at the OS loading page. After 1 minute the screen started losing its colour and turned white. If I soft or hard reset the same happens, it turns white at the OS loading page.
At some point I got through miraculously, it started up and everything was fine. I charged it, upgraded to smart1 wm6 v2 and everything seemed to work. However again some 10 minutes into a call, the phone crashed and back to square one. Downgrade to old rom, got again stuck at OS loading screen etc.
I then put it over night on the charger. The orange charging LED was blinking in 5-10 sec intervals. In the morning it was red. I started the phone again interestingly got through and got it running. Battery was fully charged. But again: 10 min into a call, the phone crashed. And trying to reboot I get to the OS loading screen, then it turns white. I put it back on the charger LED is blinking, guess I have to wait again for some hours.
Thanks for any help or suggestion,
forgot that:
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.20.0001
Aserg3.12? smart1 wm6? Are you sure you've got a wizard? Aren't those prophet roms?

Getting stuck at the today screen after updating! HELP!!

Well my problem is weird. I tried installing WM6, WM5 and even the original BA_TMUK_14200_112_11300_Ship ROM in my BA and everything is fine, but when it reaches the today page, it gets hanged and i then i have to soft rest it which brings it back to the same problem. Its the same with all the 3 versions, and also with 2003SE.
I started of with WM6, then the original and then 2003SE. My mobile was working before i tried undating it but it used to hang when i used to switch on the WiFi. Its a T-Mobile MDAIII. Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions or have i burnt it up bad??!
Well my bad, it finally worked somehow but now it gets stuck when u try to switch on the Wifi. The same problem that was before i updated the rom. I guess its a hardware problem now.

[PROMBLEM] Diamond stuck in restart loop.

I believe my battery ran dead and i didnt notice, now my when you press the power button the blue o2 loading screen comes on then about 2 seconds later the device restarts and same thing over and over.
If i plug a an ac adpater in (i've tried 2 and an incar charger) the light ring goes up twice then then phone triggers a start up and gets stuck in the loop. I've tried leaving it in this loop for 10mins see if it would charge the battery but no luck.
I have tried doing a hard-reset 3 times now it says its done ok soon as i press vol up to boot it goes into the loop.
Is there anyway i can charge the battery if this is the case or is there another problem thats causing this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Are you sure the battery is dead?
If you left it in the loop for 10 mins I would have thought that it would flatten it such that it doesn't light up at all.
I know the battery was very low before it started doing this and i hadnt installed anything new in months.
Usualy on the o2 screen it shows red writing at the top and bottom, its not showing that right now if that means anything.
Its a stock o2 uk rom with no changes to the radio and official battery.
I've just installed the latest rom from the o2 website (keeping it stock incase i need to send it off to them) and still doing the reboot on startup thing.
Contacted o2 see what they say but if anyone else has any ideas im open to suggestions
i've got the same issue and the battery won't charge ...i suppose it could be a battery issue, but i'd be sure about it prior to buy a new battery..
Battery was fine, i sent the phone to the o2 repair centre got it back week later fixed

did you use a modified rom? ..i was told htc repairs only unmodified products, could you gimme more information about it?
No it was not a modified rom, default o2 xda ignito rom.
Me too!
I had the same issue. I tried soft-resets, hard-reset, swapping batteries with another phone (even tried warming the battery in my hands which was suggested somewhere!), reflashing a couple of different ROM's, including Shaks 4.30 and the latest Telstra ROM (2.07.841.2 WWE). I tried using MTTY to reflash the ROM, and reflashing using the DiamonCustomRUU.exe from the PC. (OliNex 1.40 SPL). All of the reflashes were in Bootloader mode (hold pwr and vol down) because I couldn't get it to the point of ActiveSync connection.
Nothing would work.
The winning step that bought me the joy (and relief) I was looking for was downgrading the radio from 1.09.25.23 to 1.00.25.05.
Also, I'm not sure if it is related, but I think the reset button under the stylus is stuffed because pressing it doesn't do anything.
Now I've escaped the reboot loop from hell, I'll run it for a few days before giving it back to my boss! If anyone's interested, I'll update you in a few days.

could you please tell me how you installed the radio, because when I use diamoncotumruu it stays at 0% and the finaly gives an error

I had to install the radio in Bootloader mode (hold pwr and vol down), but there was no issue with the install after doing this. Have you checked this thread? I don't know if that thread will help you fix your issue but it might be worth a look.
What exactly was the error message? Perhaps a search on that error message will help you.
HD.
I've tried it in bootloader mode, but it won't install...
the error number is 262. but that should be an active sync problem but I can't sync so I don't know what the problemm is
Not really on topic, but...

262 isn't an necessarily an ActiveSync problem, more of a connection problem. Try post 9 here. Or try uninstalling Active Sync altogether and installing radio and ROM via MTTY. Since it is a connection problem, you could even try a different USB cable.
But I suggest you post 262 queries here, here, here or here.
BTW, Are you using XP?

Xperia stuck on loading

Hi guys,
I've got a bit of a problem with my friends X1...
A while ago I updated my X1 to WM6.5 and it works perfect...
But last week my friend asked me to update her phone as well, so I did
Now here's the problem:
After updating, the phone got stuck on loading, it didn't even get past the SE screen...
Turned it on and off for a couple of times, soft reset, hard reset, nothing worked...
I was still able to get the phone in the tri-colour screen, so I did, and I installed a stripped down version of WM6.5
And it worked!
But this afternoon she called me up to say that the phone was having problems again.
She often can't turn it on, and when she can it seems as if it has lost all of its memory again, comletely blank as if you just got it out of the box... (So you have to setup your screen again, the time and date etc...)
I did it exactly as id did mine, and mine still works perfect...
What could have gone wrong?
First I put Hard-SPL on the device.
Then I used the rom update utility from christian-web.nl/sections.php?section=Xperia_rom (I used version 3.810)
And thats it!
Does somebody have any idea what could be the problem?
Thanks,
Rob
A few days back I read somewhat of the same story, about the phone hard resetting by itself. Can't recall where, but it was somewhere in the Xperia section of this forum.
Did you do a hard reset after flash? Or maybe task29 before flashing her phone?
Try the hard reset first and see if that helps.

My Diamond also stuck in infinite reboot loop !

I bought this phone hardly used from Canada and was simlocked so I did all the hard spl'ing, sim unlocking and all the other "ings and installed the brilliant DonSalari ROM worked beautifully for around 7 months and I took care of it. I never installed anything else of messed about with any settings.
But two days back after heavy usage the battery almost died and I came on put it on recharge and now its going into the reboot loop.
I hard reset it, reflashed the radio, took out the battery for hours and a lot of other things I read about here and none of them work.
It will sometimes boot up and become normal for a few minutes and after a while go back to its cycle. Currently it wont even stay on long enough to hook up to my PC. But sometimes holding the reset button helps and that was how I was able to reflash the radio
Anybody got any ideas. My phone is still newish and I seriously cannopt afford a new one now
Any advice would be more than welcomed
Thanks in advance
You could try the radio 10.00.25.05.
As least for me, all radios but 10.00.25.xx makes my diamond keep in this reboot loop.
I'm trying to figure out why that happen, but it seems that no one knows.
Hi, i've just got this same problem
had this phone for a while now, about 15 months, just finished a phonecall 5-10 minutes ago phone reset, thought how odd, and now it just keeps resetting after the loading screen disappears, have now hard reset it, and still doing it.
will try flashing a new radio see if it solves it
i have radio version 1.17.25.09 using 2.07 shaks which have been using for the last 6 months or so i think without any troubles!
*edit*
flashed 10.00.25.05. seems to be working now
annoyingly i hard reset first and i've just had a new harddrive on my pc so lost all my contacts
thanks

Just after buying my diamond I changed to hardspl, radio and rom, and it was like your situation, just after a few days working I had to hard reset, because it starts to auto reset. After the hard reset, everything was fine again for a few more days. Then I tried to change the radio to the more used one, 10.00.25.05. The problem was gone until some days ago, when I decided to try Security Unlock and 1.17.xx radio, and the problem was back. I reverted to 10.00.25.05, everything was fine again, except the wifi, now I can't connect to the internet, just to local network (no problems with other phones using the same wifi hotspot).
Before chaging back to 10.00.25.05, I have also tried a lot of things, many hardspl, mtty, different roms, security unlock, removed security unlock, diferent radios, but the only ones that really worked were: 10.00.25.xx and 10.02.xx. With 10.08.xx radio I could partially use the phone, but sense 2.5 didn't worked and neither phone network.
Now I'm using 10.02.25.32 for 1 day and a half. No problems until now, no resets, network and sense working fine, battery is good (it's 75% on the second day). I'll try for more days and see if everything is ok.
Sorry for your contacts
That happened to me once, now I always backup my contacts in internal storage and also in 2 computers. Lots of version, good that PinBackup writes the date on the file, easier to see which one is newer
Thanks for sharing your situation. I'm trying to figure out what can be done to solve this problem, more experiences is more information for my "research"
lucky I had a backup from december so still got most of them!
I may try a few radio's next week since i've got a lot of free spare time at the mo.
may try a few different roms as well and see how it goes!
Finally solved this and all it needed was a good 15 hour recharge and now its back to completly normal
hrmm, mine starting rebooting again earlier, again just after a phonecall, although this time i was driving and i didn't answer it but it kept rebooting, taking the battery out for a few minutes and its stopped now, will try flashing a different rom next week and see what happens
i'll leave it to charge overnight too, i did try a different battery incase it thought the battery was low as i'm using the offical extended one, but still did it with the original
restarting prob...
hello same problem here too..plz provide me the link too..for the radio 10.02.25.32

Well the hd on my computer fried not long after posting my last message so I didn't get time to try out different roms/radio's
still using the 10.00.25.05, since i've last posted its been fine, however it has started to reboot itself sometimes, battery showing as 30/40% starts rebooting then battery shows as 2%, although i've recently been moving between houes and haven't had time to charge it properly.
i've also noticed HSPDA recention is a million times better with this radio, I have another diamond (well my partners) and she barely gets good reception with HSPDA, in our home i generally get 2-3 bars and she can't get anything, she's using 1.17.x.x strangly she's never had the phone restart with her, and has been using that radio longer than I had been.
also for the radios, you can either search for the thread or click this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470306
