I've had an experience when flashing my phone where during the flashing process the battery gets sufficiently depleted that it won't turn on after the flash completes. During the flash process, the battery does not charge, and the reading and writing to flash consumes more power than normal operation.
When the Wizard battery gets depleted, it will not take a charge without some serious effort. I would plug it in to the charger and leave it for at least half an hour. Then, with the power adapter still connected, attempt several resets using the soft reset button. There was a time when I had to do this several dozen times before it "took" and was revived.
You can confirm whether it's a battery problem by trying another battery. Perhaps you can stop by your carrier's retail store and ask to try a battery. If it powers up, then tell them your battery went bad (not unusual) and they may replace it for free.
Thanks for the advise, i ll try that. I knew i could get some help from this forum thanks again guys.
went to the tmobile store tried a new battery it still wont come on. I guess have to call HTC on monday. Might have fried te phone.
Called HTC support and they do not support the xda mini s. Anybody have a suggestions or any third party vendors who can help fix this phone. Please advise.

Maybe if you weren't so sarky people might want to help...some more info might be good. What bootloader from / to and why? Does a computer recognise and install it, what happens when you run a rom update etc etc.
If you have destroyed the bootloader you will need to use JTAG to reflash it and this is not something you can do at home with your own PC so you may have to pay a service centre to correct it.

I was not trying to be sarky about it. I just need help. I downgraded the ROM from the 2.21 version to 1.X version. After the downgraded the phone booted up and it got stuck at the initail ROM screen. I tried reseting it a couple of time and it kept coming up and it gets stuck from on the ROM boot up screen. So i took the battery out and after i put it back in its not even coming up. There is absolutely no power. Im willing to send it any service center i just need info on where to send it to . HTCUSAINC says they do not support 02 devices. Thanks for at least responding to my thread.

HTC USA probably say that because they are contractually obliged to.

OK, who are i-mate's service agent in the US? Ring them. Explain you know how they don't service the XDA mini s, but it's a JAMin or whatever, and you're over from the UK where you work etc so can't send it back to o2 immediatley, a rom upgrade has gone wrong and you've corrupted the bootloader, you have downloaded the rom files and will strip the phone to the circuitboard if they would be so kind as to flash your rom file on it via JTAG if you made a donation to the charity of their choice etc etc.
So make it out that they have to do little work other than plug the JTAG onto the board and click 'ok' and you may get away with it.
If they do go for it, strip the phone, send the extracted rom files on CDr, thank your lucky stars and don't do it again. If they don't go for it, try the next HTC device service agent you can find until someone does.
Although people have JTAG equipment outside HTC the contact points are not labelled / listed in the service manual so you need them or their authorised agents to be able to do this.
Richard
Thanks for the advice you have been a great help im going to look for a Imate service center in the US. thanks again . Has anyone ever had any work done by the pocketpctechs.com please advise

I don't know if PPCTechs have JTAG capability for wizard. Ring them and ask. If they say '"huh? all our boxes have tags on them sir" or similar walk away...
You need someone that not only has a JTAG flash kit but also knows where the testpoints are on the wizard board. I don't sadly :-(
And I really would offer to strip the board down before sending - that's an hours' labour in some places!....
Richard
Thanks you are being such a great help.Wow its getting even closer to a brick phone huh.Well im still looking i have no idea where to find a repair center for this o2 xda mini s.Ill try club imate like u said in earlier.thanks again. i owe u one

Unless you have a specific reason not to send the device back to o2 why not ring the UK XDA helpline for a quote? They do out-of-warranty repairs. +44 808 100 3427
If you are the original purchaser the warranty should still be valid - just don't mention you tried to flash it, says it stopped working.
Shipping insured to the UK should be no more than $25.
Richard.
I might just have to do that . It was a gift , but i know want the person to know that i tried to flash the phone. But at this point ill rather send it back to O2, than go thru all this stuff. Thank you soo much for ur inputs.

Hello Richard!
Could you please tell me more about JTAG? What does JTAG stand for and what JTAG can do. Its unlucky that now i have a dead O2 MiniS like Gambino because of doing the same thing he did (downgrade ROM). Will my phone become alive if i change the Flash ROM Chip?
BR
yes its unfortunate . I was trying to downgrade the rom. Whats exactly happened to yours. Has anyone else haad this problem and if you did were u able to revive it.

I did use the newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe with custom ROM (Button's) to flash my O2 Mini S (it was with German ROM 2.21 and i wanted to downgrade ROM in order to unlock CID and reflash with English ROM). The process went Ok and when the phone restarted i got
IPL 1.0. xx
SPL 2.21.xx
OS 1.54xx
and a boot screen with a glass of beer !!!!
Then the phone hang up, i think because of incompatible SPL and OS
I took out the battery trying to get into bootloader and reflash with another ROM but the phone did not power on. Now its totally a DEAD BRICK.
yup thats the same thing that happened to me. Anybody else have any input if this ever happened to them
Hi folks,
I was attempting to flash Mr Clean's ROM onto my G4 Wizard the other day. All seemed to be fine, went to 100%, rebooted the phone, then booted up and started installing the cabs as it does on 1st boot.
Then the power just went off and I Cant boot it back up. I tried connecting the AC adaptor, nothing. SO I bought 4 AA batteries and put into my travel adaptor (takes 4 batteries and can charge the wizard) - after a few hours I got orange light on my wizard, but still wont charge/boot.
Any ideas please? Would a new battery let me re-flash it? Cos my friend has same fone, could I use his battery to save mine? If so what should I flash it with to be safe?
Cheers!!
Looks like the same I did, try to flash MrClean to a G4, and with that replacing the IPL/SPL... you got yourself a nice brick there.

oops!! thing is, i had mr clean on for quite a while before and it worked fine. not sure why it would suddenyl stop liking it? i guess its to do with the rom i put on after mr clean's??
so there is nothing i can do with this? no way of anyone repairing it, even at a cost (small!!)?
Why don't you contact the service provider & if it is under warranty they should repair/ replace it.
Just make sure you don't tell them the real reason why it turned into a brick!!!!

hey guys i was out today and got a txt and went to pull my 2 month to the day old diamond out of its holster and it fell about 3 feet to a hard wood floor!!! when i picked the phone up the screen would not turn on! i quickly did a soft reset hoping it would kick the screen on and NO LUCK...... but theres hope.. i can still receive incoming phone calls, and the usb to pc functions fine still!!!! here is the thing, in the 2 months that i have had the phone i have flashed custom roms and all that jazz on the phone . should i re-flash the phone with telus factory rom and do a hard reset on the phone before i bring it in and hope my warranty covers it ???????????? or are there any tips ??????? IMHO i think the ribbon that connects the screen to the phone came undone(I HOPE)
if any of you guys got any ideas or tips im all open for input?
thanks guys and oh ya HAPPY NEW YEAR
Well I too fell in the same situation and there is no other way u'll need to give back to the service center and they will do the rest however don't expect it to be returned after a day or so cause i got mine back after 2 mnths i know i was feelin really lonely without my Diamond..... but anyway they did fer free so i think the warranty covers it... tht shud sum gud news fer u in the year 2009....
Ok.... I have had my Tilt for a year & 1/2... My (then) 14 y/o son became very envious of my phone... We are not a "rich" family and my son saved up for months and finally could afford the phone last year... He bought it 100% on his own, as well as pays his own prepaid AT&T Go minuites for it....
About 6 months after he got it, we got the typical USB problems... We worked around them by syncing via Bluetooth, and buyign spare batteries as well as a stand alone battery charger.. Everything worked great until this week... Tuesday night, it said the Sim was not there... I tried the placing tape on the back of it, and that didn;t seem to help... tried a few other things I read, nothing seemed to help except when we first booted up the phone with it the keyboard slid out... As long as we didnt; close it, it would work (Atleast for TXTing)... But even that was sketchy at best... since then that stopped working completley, and as of lastnight the touchscreen died... Any suggestions at all? Please don't tell me to go search for answers on google... I have already looked.. If there is no hope, please send cash offers if you are intersted in buying it... Thanks in advance for your help....

You can try to tighten all the screws around the sim card slot and make sure that nothing is obstructing the door from locking tight.
Try a hard reset to reset all the software. I would say to try to re-install the rom, but you say the usb port is bad. Other than that, it is warrantied for a year, call the store or HTC and see if there is anything that they can do for you.
I will try that... but I am thinking maybe it is the ribbion that connects the screen to the motherboard seeing as everything on that part id the problem (touch screen, sim card, screen flickering now).. it is defintley out of warranty as well
