Hi; I tried to unlock my G3 wizard and now I think I am very stupid.
First, I get CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe and upgrade wizard, on wizard was IPL 1.xx SPL 2.xx, GSM also anything, but OS nothing. Blank line. Then that booted to bootloader.
So I tried RUU_Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_WWE.exe, it wrote IPL 2.26, SPL 2.26 and OS nothing. Then i tried t-mobile rom, but it didn't work, because "only upgrade".
I tried through CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe, so now I have IPL 1.01, SPL 2.26, GSM something, OS nothing (blank line) and I think I'm stupid.
Any ideas? Thank you...

Make sure that you have unlocked the device correctly. Read Dr. P's sticky:A Definitive Guide to Unlocking G3 Wizards and also the wiki.
I know that i haven't unlocked my wizard The problem was before that I started unlock... OS disappeared after first flash.

Reflash with the Button 1.05 Rom, if the IPL & SPL don't match after the first flash then flash a second time with the same Rom, that should fix IPL/SPL problems.
Now Unlock your device BEFORE flashng a 2.x Rom.
Dr P's Sticky Thread covers this, please read it throughly..

Hm, in point 7 - Connect your device and cancel the partnership. (You're a guest )
I can not connect my device, because I haven't OS on Wizard, he boots only to bootloader (with IPL 1.01 and SPL 2.26). I can flash from PC, but then I never have OS od MDA.
I read the "A Definitive Guide to Unlocking G3 Wizards" many times, but I dont's see any solution...
Maybe I have strange wizard
When all else fails, flash an official Rom from your Service Provider. That should get you back to working order then proceed with the unlocking from there.

When I say "Connect your device" I mean to connect it to the USB cable. Two paragraphs after item 17 I address this issue. You don't need an OS, just be in the bootloader screen. I've personally had this exact same thing happen where all I had was the IPL and SPL with nothing else. Remove battery from PDA and then put it back in. Make sure you reboot your PC.
Good luck.

good idea, but it doesn't work; because "upgrade only" - My originally T-Mobile ROM is only 2.21, so I can't flash it
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.

Invalid Vender ID.
But I can flash MOLSKI ROM with 2.26 IPL/SPL. Should I?

For everyone: Thanks for your time, really. But I'm confused, I read all, nothing helped.
Let's say: "Michalek is very stupid, we'll write him "what to do" step by step" ) something like "You asshol, connect your mda in bootloader to pc via usb, then download this, run it, then ...".
Because manual doesn't work for me, probably.
New year, new way I tried to flash today - and - i see OS, I'm in OS, I'm going to unlock wizard based on Unlocking Tutorial ;-)
I don't know, why it was successful. I tried reboot yesterday for four times, but it not helped. Only today.
I'm the happiest man on the planet And, "I've seen PROBABLY every situation with a G3 device here." - it is TRUE
Thank you for your time.

Good to hear you are making progress, let us know how things turn out!
--M
-Michalek- Well that's wha we like to hear! The 1.05 works great as a disaster recovery tool. Most times when it doesn't work I tend to lean on the PC as the culprit. CHKDSK, temp files, spyware and virus's, etc.
Happy New Year, no?
Don't feel stupid
I'm glad it's working for you! Don't feel stupid though. My first attempt at loading a new rom went very similar. The CID unlock process told me it was successful (I thought) but it wasn't. I freaked out and thought all was lost. But I finally worked through it by going back to the Button ROM (LOVE THAT BEER SPLASH SCREEN) and starting over. The same problem even happened again about three weeks ago. After freaking out, I reloaded the Button ROM and was back on my way to normalcy
MDA is running on Superrom 1.1 and it works!
I don't know, what exactly was the problem with OS, but it helped me, when I left MDA cca three hours without battery. When I flashed the ROM before, OS wasn't.
At the last time, THANK ALL OF YOU VERY MUCH. And special thanks for Dr Puttingham and his unlocking tutorial. Thanks.
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.

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 was upgrading my t-mobile 8150(?) the k-jam with the new windows mobile 6 and in the middle of it my comp crashed!! now i am stuck at the bootloader mode (3 colored screen) and when i try to redo it i get to 99% and get a 302 error message. i follow the instructions given but keeps going in circles. its a G3 so is my phone bricked or is there a way to save it? i've been looking at this site all day but am now just more confused. lol thanks for your help!
No your phone isn't bricked. As long as you can get into the bootloader screen you should be ok. What you need to do is flash an official carrier rom either tmobile 2.26 or wizard love rom after you that than you can reflash to wm6. look at the stickies in the wizard forums that is where you can find these roms.
Thanks for the info but seems my techno curse continues. I tried the wizard love rom but it was in a different language and whem i tried the tmobile 2.26 i got "error 274 connection." Any more suggestions? Again thanks soo much for an issue I'm sure has been posted here a thouand times.
This happens to me all the time. I always use the Cingular 2.25 rom, it works perfectly and I have an I-mate K-JAM. Then, do the WM6 upgrade, but ensure all of your Norton and Antivirus and background running apps are shut down. Good luck.
yes also take out your mini sd card if you have one. even though its in another language it will work. "AVANTI means next. so just keep hitting that and you will be fine.
hmm been trying to d/l the Cingular 2.25 rom but the link seems to have stoped working...
It;s aaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllliiiiiiiiiiivvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! for now lol Lets see what happens after i install wm6 I couldn't get the cingular rom but i had already dowbloaded the button rom i found here earlier and it worked like a dream!! quick and easy!! thank you all soooooo much!
hi all. one more little thing. after adding the new rom to get it back to life, now the numbers don't match so i can't upgrade to wm6. i have ipl 1.01 spl 2.26. advice?
flash to the tmo 2.26 or cingular 2.25...that will give you an IPL/SPL of 2.xx
then, you can flash to WM6
i want to delete this message. can't find a way to do it.
there's any other way to flash without usb cable?? sorry to bug in this thread but i lost my usb connection somehow and did a hard reset and still doesn't work. my phone charges. and no is not my computer cuz my wifes phone same as mine does sync i have a tmobile mda also known as the cingular 8125.

keep reflashing buttons rom until both ipl/spl are the same number. if they are different, then the flash didn't complete correctly. (it happens often, so it's kinda normal). just keep reflashing. after both ipl/spl are the same, then CID unlock and then update to an official carrier...then flash a wm6.
can anyone help me??
Check if "USB" displayed when in bootloader mode (Camera+reset) with Wizard connected to PC.
If so, you may try to flash another ROM through bootloader.

You know what the totally histerical thing about this is? This is the exact same reason I made my first post. LOL.
Alright I'm gonna try to help you seeing as how it doesn't look like too many others are looking here.
I have several questions first before I can help you.
1. Who is your wireless service provider? IE: T-Mobile, Cingular, Etc...
2. What Is your IPL/SPL?
Answer these 2 questions for me and I will be able to better help you.
Thanks for the quick reponse
Now the irony is i am here in nepal and i use the phone as a simple mobile phone, but as far as i know i remember flashing a T-Mobile ROM while upgrading to WM6, the IPL and SPL both are 2.26, i unlocked the device while upgrading..
Thanks

Uhh......yea......I was trying to upgrade my Rom to Dutty's Diamond V1 Build 19588. I was using the instructions from Flash-Your-Tilt . I got to Step 4 CID-Unlock it installed 100% rebooted and then nothing. Now the phone will only play the intro with no sound, then go black. It shows in the lower right hand R 1.70.02iNex, G25.65.30, D1.62.00.00. The phone will allow me to do a hard reset but after it it goes through the intro with screen alignment and installs the extra apps, it reboots and then goes black. I did a ton of reading through the wiki's if someone could point me in the right direction or tell me if its toast, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Be strong. I think it's only bricked when you can't power it on.
I have a poor net connection and not time atm. So a suggestion if you haven't already, search the forum for the word bricked. I'm sure this has happened before..
There are several tricks that people know so you might be ok. good luck.

Flash an OEM Rom/Radio Combo. Also it wont hurt if you already CID unlocked to to go ahead and flash a new SPL to it. Should fix any and all issues as your phone is still actually booting and Not bricked
Installing windows the 6.1 ROM from HTC's site worked. Thank you very much for the great advice. If I wanted to now put Dutty's ROM on my phone can I go straight to that, or do I need to restart the whole ROM flashing process(installing Jump SPL, Hard SPL and CID) ?
If you have unlocked it, just put duttys onto the SD card and rename the .nbh to KAISIMG.nbh
Put the phone into bootloader and install Its the fastest most successful method. No worry about a data cable coming out mid flash ( happened once to me....not fun )
Shouldnt have to install hardspl again ( or use JumpSPL )
Just make sure that if you are installing a WM6.0 rom that you have a WM6.0 radio. If not, the flashing process for the radio is the same ( rename to KAISIMG.nbh )
Is there a way to see if I the hard SPL install and CID unlock worked ? Can I just restart the whole process regardless. Sorry for the noob questions.

Go into bootloader. If your screen says hardspl somewhere near the top then you're good to go. Check which version because you can have radio problems if you use a WM6.0 spl with a WM6.1 rom. Most recent roms are WM6.1 so try HardSPL 3.29 or higher.
If you don't have hardspl, get it here for wm6.0 roms or here for wm6.1 roms.
many thanks, your advice with the links were invaluable. I read and read and read, but i guess i did not read enough. This site rocks.
