Hi,
I tried flashing my rom using the shell tool today and it did not work. So I tried a hard reset and now its stuck in the first screen where its a blue background and it says
IPL 2.25
SPL 2.25
GSM 02.25.11
os 10.2.0.8
I was able to get past the RGB screen but now I have no idea what to do.
I tried flashing it to the WM6 if that helps anything and it was on the official cingular rom before
Why are you using the Shell Tool when you have a G3 (based on the IPL / SPL that you posted)? Just CID unlock your device and save yourself a ton of headaches.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
And yes it helps to know you are flashing WM6, but which one?
I was trying to flash it to PDAMobiz_Wizard_WM6_G3_AmazingRom_V.1.1_by_Hong.exe
I got my machine back to the 225 rom but I just cant seem to get the instructions on flashing it to work as I cant flash to button, wizard love, or tmobile and therefore cant get it to flash properly.
just throw it in bootloader mode (press soft reset with the stylus and then quickly hold the camera button.) When you get there just connect the wizard to the usb port and flash with the latest official rom. It really should work
I did. my problem is trying to get it to WM6. I have tried the official rules by the doctor, but I cant unlock it and I cant downgrade the rom. I cant install the tmobile rom as well. It seems every rom I try to install does not work.its driving me crazy.
Why can't you unlock it? Dr. P's unlocking instructions with Lokiwz are pretty straightforward and easy to do -- if you follow them step by step. There's no reason why you shouldn't be able to unlock it.
PLUS -- once you're unlocked, you can flash to ANY ROM -- ANY TIME. No need to downgrade and re-unlock every time you want to flash a newer, better ROM.
I followed the instructions. But they did not work for me. I cant goto either of the roms suggested and I cant unlock my phone. it just doesnt work for me.

You can't even downgrade to button's rom? What's the error you're getting. Give us some info we can help you further with!

I hate to say this, but if you did follow the instructions it would work. You really can't skip steps.

The error I am getting downgrading to button is

I get this with all roms. I have restarted my pc numerous times and done other things to try to get it to work but alas nothing helps.

17 ERROR [248~260] : UPDATE ERROR
This error occurs when there is an “open port error” before upgrading the CE ROM image.
Solution: You can reset the device and run RUU again. If you still encounter an “OPEN PORT ERROR” again, reset your computer and try again.

The solution for your problem might be in this thread.

Give it a shot
One last thought --
If you can't downgrade to Buttons' 1.05 ROM to unlock, maybe you could downgrade to the original Cingular-shipped ROM, which is v1.08.
I've uploaded it to Rapidshare for you if you want to try it.

I have an 8125 that I can't seem to get off of the RUU screen. It shows IPL 2.25.0001 and SPL 2.25.0001. Every time I try to use the HTC software update it reaches 95% and then errors out. Any idea how I can get this phone working again?
Thanks,

you have a G4 wizard, you need to install the wizard love rom. I believe if you read around, you may be able to find out where to find it. Also read some info about unlocking your CID and SIM for a G4 Wizard.

Hi there,
If you ever happen to get stuck in the IPL / SPL screen, try the following (it happened to me and I almost got a heart attack...):
"If your device doen't boot after flash procedure with my shelltool you should
1) Hold "Camera" while short pressing the "reset" button. Your device will enter in bootloader mode. You will se 3 stripes.
2) You should connect your usb cable to your device and pc and run RUU and flash this rom.

3) read my instruction once more and repeat all step by step. its very important!!"

Suggestion.
Go to IMEI Check, buy the unlock and have fun upgrading and downgrading your ROM.
It cost you some money but you can restore your device without to much trouble.
Best regards.

You can only unlock a G3 Wizard like that. G4's are different and have to be unlocked via imei check. The OP has a G4 based on their IPL/SPL they posted.
I can't seem to get my hands on this file. I've tried several places but no joy. Any thoughts on where I can lay my hands on the Wizard_Love ROM?

Got it and now the phone is working again!
So do I need to unlock the phone and install another ROM or will it work fine with this ROM?
Thanks, again for all your help!
T
Based on your original post, you have a G4 Wizard. You can't do the standard unlock like the stickies from Dr. P and Faria describe. You have to use the other sticky for installing roms with a CID locked phone. Your other option is to go to Imei Check and do their unlock (will cost about USD 40). Its all online (you give them your IMEI and some other info with your payment and then they send you the files to do the unlock). But even then, you still have to use G4 roms (so you need to be careful or you'll be back in this situation or worse).
BTW:I've never messed with a G4 Wizard so I'm only stating what I've read. Go read and re-read the CID Locked install procedure in the stickies to learn more.
heres my story/problem lol,,,
ok so i have an 8125..flashed to t-mobile 2.26..then to wizard_love perfectly fine.....i then tried to flash to Underground wm6..it gave me a 203 connection error at 96 percent...and left me stranded at the bootloader screen till i figured out how to flash it back to stock rom..i then flashed it to wizard perfectly fine and tried reflashing to underground..it errored at 96 percent again..and i had to redo the steps...i then tried to flash it to MuM's wm6 ..and it flashed successfully but the wizard love rom remained on my phone..nothign changed...so i tried to flash it to Most Beautiful wm6 rom and it errored(203) at 95 percent..im now in the processes of downgrading so i can try something else...
any ideas of what im doing wrong? why it keeps giving me an error or why nothign happened when i flashed to MuM?
INFO:
8125
G3 SIM and CID unlocked
IPL and SPL = 2.25
any help is appriated! thanks!
EDIT:
just tried flashing faria wm6..got to 99 percent..and gave me a 302 update error...this is looking like a timeout issue to me..since a lot of people get stuck at around 99 percent..im not sure why i get the error tho and not finish? any suggestions?
Seems like your device is not un-locked as you think it is.
Follow Dr. P's definitive guide to unlocking -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
and Vippies guide to flashing -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
Since your have a G3 device, unlocking is simple with Lockwiz. Even if you think you have already unlocked this device, do it again.
hard reset your device (hold the comm mgr and voice dial buttons, while soft reseting the device) Reset your PC, and start from the beginning. Make sure your battery has a good charge. I have also heard of people that have used a different USB port on their PC to solve their flashing problems.
Good Luck.
ok i did what you said...and i think you where right..im notfully unlocked..i downgradd button rom..did the lokiwiz thing..but i cant get my spl to 1.xx...my ipl is 1.01 but my spl is still 2.25...i have tried flashing the button rom like 3 times...but its not doing anything..my spl is still 2.25..any suggestions?

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.
Best of luck,

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.

This is an error that you can get on G4 devices. What are you doing in step G3.4? Read G4.6!

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). You have to get back to your carrier's official rom first. None of your posts indicate you have done that.

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!!
sorry if this post seems to be a repeat , but i tried the search option and the results were not fruitful
a friend of mine , while trying to upgrade to a TNT ROM , didn't HardSPLed the device first , and successfully changed the ROM of the device , now it is stuck on the blue screen with SPL and IPL versions , and no response . for some reason , the device can go to bootloader mode , but it can not be reflashed , and it does not respond to a hard reset command.
please advise on what to do
regards
When it is in the bootloader mode, and connected via USB, is there a little USB icon in the bottom left? If so, simply flash your phones carrier ROM and all should be fine with it again. You can then apply HardSPL and flash to the TNT or any other ROM that you want to. Is your device a G3 or G4 by the way? What are the numbers after IPL and SPL?
well my friend says that the USB icon is visible there , and the device was indeed a G4. the thing is , what exactly should he do , in order to flash the ROM , since non of imate roms work for it. should he use any special software?
i'll greatly appreciate your help
Is he using Vista or XP?
he is using Windows XP , could it be the PC OS that caused interference?
Well, only if it is Vista does it really matter. He needs to get ahold of an original carrier ROM, such as the O2, or T-Mobile one and flash it to his phone, then HardSPL it, then upgrade to 6 or 6.1.
Download and flash Wizard_love Rom,it might do the trick,then HardSPL and upgrade to any wm6 or 6.1 rom.
What exact error it gives while flashing imate official rom ?
well the wizard has been an imate ,and it was flashed with an Original imate ROM already , but no success , any other suggestions?
thanks again
