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

Only Official stock rom or the wizard_love rom will get flashed,no other wm6 rom is possible.
Hi,
I have a problem with my Wizard, my rom update failed because the pc reboots in the middle of the installation and now only the Red Green Blue screen appear with three things, IPL 2.17, SPL 2.17 and in the right top corner RUU.
I can't enter in the bootloader (pressing the camera button and turn on)
What can i do to fix this and update a new ROM?
Thanks in advance.
....... while on that screen plug in the usb cable and re-run the update utility.... Since the RBG screen is the bootloader...
I tried to do it, but i get ERROR[300] : INVALID UPDATE TOOL in the PDA Phone ROM Update Utility 2.00.1
Thanks
is working now. tks anyway
I'm having this same problem... not sure what's going wrong.
msmobiles.com:
Q: If I encounter ERROR [300] : INVALID UPDATE TOOL, what should I do?
A: This error message will appear when you use the incorrect RUU to upgrade. Please make sure you use the correct RUU version to upgrade.

Normally, you can only flash an official rom to restore from the point you are at. Once the bootloader is the only thing that comes up, a custom rom will not do the trick.
Once you have the official rom installed, you can then "cross-grade" to a custom rom.

Ok, so using some Italian version is working for me. RUU is the same as the pda phone updater tool right? But something is still going wrong. It says I now have OS 2.26.10.2, which is the molski rom I've been trying to get on here, but neither the ipl or spl change, and the same cingular settings keep loading.
Man this is confusing me.
I have paid to unlock my g4, and I still can't get it to work the way I want it.
Greetings.
I have spent the past couple days searching for a solution to unlock an MDA. I have got all of the different versions of lokiwiz, wizardunlock, lokiwizMsl, etc. and the mda refuses to be unlocked. I believe I am following the directions step for step, but even the forums where people have the same problems as I (internal read/write error, can't find specified path, etc.), none of the solutions are working for this device. From my searching I believe it is a g3 MDA. The stats for the device are as follows:
IPL 2.26
SPL 2.26
GSM 02.25.11
OS 2.26.10.2
I have tried downgrading the firmware to no avail (the ftp site doesnt have the file), and the phone doesn't want to be DOWNgraded anyway. If ANYONE out there is cyberspace can assist, my gratitude will be pouring forth from their screen!
[email protected]
So have you followed this thread? It has valid links to get the Button ROM so you can do the downgrade and points you to the threads that will help you do this unlock:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
In a nutshell, downgrade to the button rom (just execute the file and follow the directions). Your IPL will be 1.xx at this point and then you can use lokiwiz .2b to do the CID unlock. all of this is outlined in the excellent guide by Dr. P (which the above link will take you to). Then get your SPL down to 1.xx, then upgrade back up to 2.xx. Then you can start flashing custom roms.
If you still have issues, let us know exactly what you are doing and exactly what errors you see (or what your phone does or doesn't do).
Greetings mfrazzz.
I have indeed downloaded and attempted the button ROM. The installer started and then after about two minutes told me that the phone wouldn't let me Downgrade the ROM. I am currently downloading (70% done) the button ROM again and will see if it has the same problem. If so, I will of course seek the help of the experts here. Thanks for the quick reply!

Let us know the exact error you get (I assume the error is on the PC side) and then what the behavior of the phone is after you do this. Also, at what point does this error happen (has it actually started loading the rom or is it before it gets to that point and where its just checking your phone?)
Another option would be to try putting on the Wizard Love rom and then downgrading to button. Shot in the dark but worth a try.
Also remove your SD card when you try to downgrade. Try from a different PC if you can, or reboot your current pc before attempting this again.
Good luck!
Greetings again.
After downloading and executing the button ROM updater, it went to the status bar screen and stayed there for about a minute before displaying the following error message:
Error [296] : UPGRADE ONLY
This is (I believe) the same error I got previously. I was using RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship (which is the file that I downloaded from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613 under the link button ROM (step g3.3).

Nope, thats the Cingular 2.25 ROM. Thats why you are getting the error (since you aren't CID Unlocked it won't let you load that).
The ROM you are supposed to be loading is this one:
http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.html
Thats the Button ROM (and the one I show being in that link on that page). Please download that, and run it. You should make more progress
Since you are on the bootloader screen (Rainbow screen you described) just run the button rom when you get it downloaded (active sync will not connect, but since you see USB above the left soft key you have the connection to do this).
I see....it would make a difference if I got the right program! Rapidshare says I have ten minutes before I can download another file, so after I download http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239...WWE.exe.h tml, I will try it and post the results here! Thank you so much for your help, mfrazzz!
Greetings.
After downloading and installing (onto the phone) http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239...WWE.exe.h tml, the stats for the phone are
ROM: 2.26.10.2 WWE
Radio Version: 02.25.11
Protocol: 4.1.13.12
ExtRom: 2.26.10.105
After executing lokiwiz, lokiwizMSL, wizardunlock, and a few different versions of each (after I put the enableRapi onto the phone), the phone still won't unlock. It either gives me a "Cannot find the specified path" error, or the "Internal read/write error".
Im not sure that the file I downloaded was a 'down'grade, so if anyone sees a solution, please post!
Thank you
Did the flash of the Button ROM work? Your IPL should have changed to 1.xx after doing that flash (and your splash screen would be a photo with a mug of beer in the foreground). Since your IPL and SPL still show 2.26, it appears the flashing of the button rom didn't happen.
Not sure what else to tell you. It should be as simple as running the CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe file, and letting it flash to your phone to do the initial downgrade. But you have to be a 1.xx for IPL before the lokiwiz .2b will be able to work (so there is no point in doing anything else until the steps before that complete. Again, follow to the letter (including checking the results) the thread by Dr. P on CID Unlocking. You should never try to do steps before the previous step is complete).

I thought it would be that easy too. I clicked on the file, it went through the flash, and those are the stats that showed up. I am currently trying the flash again. One difference I noticed this time is that the version it says is going to be installed is 1.xx this time, last time it said 2.XX. It looks like its going ok, though. Ill post again once it is done.
Greetings.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP MFRAZZZ! Not only did your prompt responses brighten my otherwise gloomy, MDA filled day! Your patience with my noobitude on this device (its not mine) has been a blessing beyond anything I could have hoped for. The device is now UNLOCKED!!! After the last flash, the beer mug showed up and all was well. Lokiwiz worked like a charm and your help, as I said, was much needed! THANK YOU!

Who knows, you didn't tell anything useful about your phone or what ROMs or anything else. Try the link in my sig. Read it, do ALL the steps, if you think you can skip something--don't, if "it doesn't work"--then you didn't follow all the steps.

I think this may be part of the problem... How long did you wait? All roms stall at some point and can stall for like 5 mins (sometimes more). Don't do ANYTHING, unless your PC gets an error. Its still working. If it sits for more than 10 mins then you probably do have a problem, but it can sit for what seems like forever sometimes. Just be patient.

That error indicates you aren't CID Unlocked. Is your phone booting now? or are you at the bootloader (rainbow) screen? If you are at the bootloader, then flash your official rom to get a working device. Once you have a working device, then go to step G3.6 and do the CID Unlock procedure.
ALso remove your SD card while you are doing all of this until you get it CID Unlocked and onto the TMobile 2.26 official rom (G3.8).
AND yes, you have a G3, so you don't (and shouldn't) be in the G4.x steps.

This is my last post for the day as I can't handle anymore of this (its not just you peran, but the other half dozen posts I've read in the last hour or so where people just aren't following the instructions they are given. These methods are tried and true, and they work. And yes, this is the way to CID Unlock your phone unless you pay to have it done)... In a previous post to you, it was stated you had to get back to an official rom first. Have you done this (your replies indicate you just continue to do other roms)? You need to get the latest rom from your carrier and get your device working again. Get it all charged up, pull out your SD card, then try flashing back to the button rom (I would also suggest you try pulling the button rom down again in case there is something wrong with your previous download of it).
Its the weekend, I'm going to go enjoy the spring weather
i did it like u suggested mfrazzz. i know that my phone isnt CID unlocked. but that is my problem. i read the mentioned article x-times and did it like described but the problem is : when i downgrade to button 1.05 rom then my pda stuck at 98% and i get the message from the update program on my pc that the downgrade was successful. but it isn't. why? till this step u cant do much wrong i think... :-(
Have you flashed back to the official rom from your carrier? Until you do that and get your device back working there is no point in trying to continue to flash the button rom (or any other rom).

So, you've decided that your shiny new toy isn't very well setup by default. You flashed a ROM and lo and behold, you missed some instruction somewhere and now you think it's bricked.
Here's the good news:
It's not bricked!!
Bricked means that it's dead and it's in no way or shape recoverable.
There is still a chance. (As long as you didn't try to hardSPL with another Device's SPL...)
All you have to do is:
For the WING:
Hold the Camera button and WHILE holding it, soft reset the device (that means press the little hole above the memory card with the stylus.) That will bring you to the bootloader. Now download the appropiate RUU and run that program. A few minutes later and your new shiny toy is back to it's crappy OEM but working self!
I'll put in links for those who can't find them...
Here's tmobile's ROM.
WOW! That´s all??
Ok - then provide us a link to a XDA Terra RUU!!!!!!
hahahaha. Thanks for this help. Maby for some people it is usefull - but written 1000 times before.

Any Help ?????
Hitec
If the device had an spl of 1.08 prior to HardSPLing it, then you'll have to bring the device to your nearest repair center. There isn't a way around that. Oli doesn't know everything and that's the risk we take when we try new and experimental things that people create but have no way of testing. But, we live and learn. If it wasn't for that issue, you could always cook your own ROM and if the HardSPL was working, you could've easily flashed any ROM. But the keyboard wouldn't been wrong until you could find someone who had the correct keyboard and you extracted the ROM from it and cooked that keyboard driver into your ROM.
Oh noooo!!
Hi ivanmmj,
I used your guide to flashing my HTC P4350 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358615.
It was in French and I wanted it in English. So I downloaded one of the official HTC ROMs "HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe" assuming this was the English one because all the others couldn't have been.
I copied the "RUU_signed.nbh" from the above HTC ROM and put it into the RUU folder as instructed by yourguide (I didn't copy the SPL.nbh file). I then ran the herald-uspl.exe and everything went fine until the RUU utility stopped with the error "invalid vender ID".
The RUU exited without completing, now all I get when the device boots is the screen giving my IPL (1.08.001) and SPL (1.08.001). How do I flash another ROM from this state? I can't do it the "normal" way because ActiveSync can't see the device. When I try to use the RUU tool that comes with your tool, the progress bar shows then it says the tool can't be used with my device.

Oh wow. I'm so sorry. I think I may have forgotten to put up a warning for people that have an SPL lower than 4.0. Was your SPL lower than 4.0? If it was, you cannot use the USPL OR the HardSPL and they end up writing part of the ROM over your current SPL and brick the device. This, unfortunately, needs to be fixed by your local repair center. I'll talk to the Mods about unlocking that thread so that I can update it.

Oh wow. I'm so sorry. I think I may have forgotten to put up a warning for people that have an SPL lower than 4.0. Was your SPL lower than 4.0? If it was, you cannot use the USPL OR the HardSPL and they end up writing part of the ROM over your current SPL and brick the device.

Oh deary me! I am so dead now - I live in Tanzania, East-Africa. My "local" repair center is several hundred thousand miles away across The Big Blue. What exactly do the repair center folks do to fix the device? Perhaps I can soldier out myself with some guidance...
Thank you,
