Damn... I walked around and around and solution was all near me and able to do it myself...
Ok here´s how I done it.
First, I must explain what was the problem.
After update the firmware (not actually upgrade, I had the phone full of trash, so I decided to reflash same firmware v2.18 PTG), the Qtek 9100 / HTC Wizard freezed at 2nd splash screen (the one that shows OS versions IPL version, ect). Tried many different versions, upgraded to 2.24, 2.25, downgraded even to 1.6.7.3, but always same problem, freezed on second splash screen. I read many topics on xda-dev, and seen some people with same problem. Apparently there was 2 solutions. 1- send phone back to warranty. 2- write backup ROM from SD in bootloader.
Passed more then 15 hours asking for this SD backup everywhere, and COULDN´T find any help. Apparently no one had this "SD dump ROM Backup".
So here´s how I solved my problem
1- I tought that a SD backup was needed, and yes it is. But u can use your own phone and your own SD to do it.
2- Get a clean SD card (in qtek 9100 / Htc Wizard case is MiniSD) with 128MB (some people say 64MB, but I personally used a 128MB, maybe a 64MB is enough)
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.
4- Get your phone in bootloader mode. Like this : Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter in bootloader mode (RGB screen).
5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY_updateROM.exe (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/romupdate.rar). After open, on Port selection, choose \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
6- Type "r2sd all" and hit enter... wait to the end (at end shows "cmd>"). On your phone screen u can follow backup progress... small bar will appear down the RGB screen.
7- Power off the phone (or remove battery), enter bootloader mode (camera button + power on) and this time RGB won´t appear right away. Will ask if u want to "download SD image", press voice dial button to agree, and writting will begin. Wait to the end. Power off and power on normally. Now your phone should be working ok. Not even needed to reflash the phone after this.
Thanks to all and hope this helps more people with this problem
I can get the MDA in a bootloader mode with the RGB screen but I can't figure out how to get the SD Image Boot. When I open updateROM, it only gives me the seletion of COM1 and COM3. I can't gete any farther, help plz. i really want to use my MDA
Adam
Adam, you missed a step
Kill wescomm.exe as described in step 3 and you will be able to access via USB.
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.

CID unlock?
I believe that your phones aren't CID unlocked.
I think that only CID unlocked phones or inputing the BOOTLOADER password will allow to backup wizard to SD card
I've got the exact same problem, phone freezes at splash screen. Now I backed up a rom from a working cid-unlocked wizard, but after I tried loading it on my wizard it says 'don't allow update'. So what can I do now?
Awesome solution! My MDA vario is back from the dead!
Thank you for sharing this great solution with us
Thanks my phone is back!, now how can I get to use tha card again? I dont have a card reader for my pc, just the phone. Is ther something that I can use, because my device dont get any storage Card.

I was forced to buy a multi-card reader to get my card back Fortunately that they are so cheap these days (less than 12€ for 31 diff cards)
Funny thing is that after formatting the card in Win2k the phone still asks if i wish to restore image when entering bootloader mode
cheers
hi
did you slove this your problem ?
i also got the same error
It stoppped asking to restore image when entering bootloader mode maybe because i've been using the card in normal PPC operations and the "r2sdall" area must have been overwritten
Yes, data remain at SD card. Probably need to insert in SD card reader and format under windows system.
About the errors while reading the data to SD, I remind, to try in a fully clean SD card (formatted completly), and yes, might require that your phone be CID unlocked, but that part can also be done easily.
The data that is written on the SD will remain hidden, and are like system files. That´s why no one can share the needed files over the internet or download somewhere. Because can´t get the files out of there. However, if u seen in your file explorer in your phone some file might appear on card root. But also not sure if can copy it from there and later apply on a card and do this procedure.

Hello I think there is no way to restore a Sd backup on CID locked device.
I think the only possibility is to unlock CID with Imeicheck site (the process begin in bootloader mode) and then restore Sd image.

Hi there,
I installed a bunch of stuff on the AKU3.2 Rom H-tec innov / O2 ROM which i found on the ftp and now when i soft-reset the phone, it either gets stuck (in windows) on Today, where it only loads like half of it and is consequently stuck or it resets again...
How would I be able to solve this issue having that it doesn't connect to ActiveSync?
Thanks a bunch,

OK let me clarify.... phone is totally unresponsive. I turn it on, HTC Innovation screen pops then the O2 with all the version, it loads windows and you can't really do anything but turn it off... or hard reset which doesn't help because the next time it loads, it just does the same thing...

Thanks for your reply, could you direct me please to somewhere where i can read of how to put it in bootloader mode? I have no idea and I can't find it in the manual. Thanks
If you want, you can IM me on YIM: ionutz_ceo
Thanks a lot
I've achieved putting it into bootloader mode, how would I go about reflashing now?
lol, ok!
So basically this is the result of my 2 hour research::
If you're Wizard is frozen, you do this:
1. Turn off USB in ActiveSync
2. Download mtty
3. While phone is off, press Camera button then holding it press Power button on phone and it will load in bootloader mode
4. Connect mtty to the phone via usb
5. <<< Here is when my research parts ways
6a. You can use a sd card and put an image on it, using mtty reflash the phone (don't know how to do that or where to get the image)
6b. There's another way of reflashing the phone...
Can anyone fill me in on that?

That seems a bit more complicated than what is really needed.
Assuming that your device was a G3 before you started, you are CID unlocked and you didn't overwrite incompatible bootloaders on a G4 device by using a G3 only ROM:
Once you are in bootloader, connect your USB cable. You should see the letters USB in the lower corner of your device.
Reflash with an official AKU2 ROM (latest available from your carrier's website.)
to do this once you are in bootloader mode and see USB in the lower corner execute the rom installer.
Don't flash an AKU3 Rom until you read all the threads completely on them. Several programs that work with AKU2 do not work with AKU3 and will freeze your device - Which appears to be what you are experiencing. There is still work being done on AKU3 and they aren't for mainstream use yet. There are driver incompatibilities, database restructures and such that haven't been accounted for in some software. The most common issues are documented repeatedly in every AKU3 ROM thread.

Yes I agree with this the other option is a bit more complicated. This is much easier
@ ionutzu
Please update how the solutions above worked for ya. Zzan's solution is standard and most used along with being the easiest & should definitely work.
^^ you guys are wonderful!
Pretty much this is how it works, I couldn't find the "easy" solution anywhere, but now I figured it out.
1. Turn on phone holding camera button + power button
2. Connect via USB
3. Make sure USB is written in bottom left corner of PPC screen
4. Run an original ROM update (that is, the ones coming straight from T-Mob, I've tried it with other roms, it doesn't work)
5. It should work, you should have a fresh copy
6. I guess put your customized rom and try again....
Thanks for the help.

Glad it worked out for you.
At 56%, the desktop went to a blue screen and said an error had occurred and the system must be restarted. The screen asked if I had installed any new programs, check with the adminstrator, etc. The only program recently installed is the program for this ROM revision. When it crashed, the phone had a completion bar in the top 1/3rd, showing 56% completion. The rest of the screen was white. I restarted the desktop and was unable to establish a sync connection. I then preformed a hard reset on the phone. When it restarted, it showed 4 color bars, red on top, green, blue and white at the bottom. Since I cannot restablish a sync connection, how do I finish the modification. I am now concerned that I have "bricked" the phone. I am reluctant to try this mod on another phone until I can determine what went wrong.
Adding additional info
My phone is a G3, CID and SIM are unlocked, desktop is using Windows XP, SP2 and ActiveSync is Ver. 4.5.0
phone isnt bricked, your getting into bootloader fine. you need to turn it on, get it into bootloader i mean. if needbe press camera and soft reset (power button) then plug it in USB. You then need to flash your phone with the operator ROM, or the ROM you want to flash it with. Your phone is by far bricked, G3 ones are really difficult to ruin. I learnt that first hand

I just had this happen to me as well, I got stuck a 29%
Now when I get to bootloader it shows the IPL 2.26 and SPL 2.26 and also a RUU in the top right hand corner. Plug in USB and I get USB at the bottom left but then when I try to launch the RUU with the rom I want to flash I Invalid update tool, download new tool... It wont "Verify information on the device"
**EDIT
Nevermind, I just got Titanium to take... I may be ok... I think the RUU in the vanilla download I got is messed up or something...
Currently ripping through the rom update now. Damn I just got this phone yesterday I was gonna be pissed if I killed it.
Okay, I have the tricolor screen with IPL 2.25 on the left top of the red bar, SPL 2.25 on the left bottom of the red bar, RUU on the right top of the red bar and USB on the bottom left of the screen.
I push the camers button, do a soft reset and launch the ROM update. First window says "Verifying information on your PDA phone. Please wait." After a few moments I get a window that says "ERROR (300) This update utility cannot be used for your phone. Please get newer update utility."
If I try again, I get a window with "ERROR (264) CONNECTION" And an additional message about the USB connection not working. I am using a USB charge/sync cable and not a cradle.
What now?

well,after geting to bootloader mode,don't reset again just establish usb connectivity and when it show usb in the lower part of the bootloader screen launch ruu and start the flash.if it still stops with an error,post that error,then it means u had a bad flash or no flash at all.are you pretty sure you got it CID unlocked ?
tell you what you do,go to this link download WST tool and apply it,than post the data info it gives here,this will give the present status of your phone,ok

G4.1 Does you're device start normally (yes) or is it stuck on the three-colored bootloader screen (no)? YES... go to step G4.4, NO go to step G4.2
G4.2 Turn off you're device totaly. Remove the SD card and disconnect the USB cable from you're device. Turn on the device while holding the camera button. You will get into bootloader mode (3 colored screen). Connect the USB cable to the computer and you will see USB at the bottom of your screen above the left softkey (Activesync will not connect in bootloader mode, but you can flash from this screen!). go to G4.3
G4.3 Download wizard_love rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G4.4.
G4.4 Is your device CID-unlocked (note: it's not the same as SIM-unlocked!)? YES... go to step G4.7, NO OR DON'T KNOW go to step G4.5. (note: CID-unlocking a G4 is only possible by paying for it at imei-check!)
G4.5 Download enable-rapi.zip. Transfer Cert_SPCS.cab and EnableRapi.cab to your phone. Run Cert_SPCS.cab FIRST and EnableRapi.cab SECOND. Turn your device off and on or wait 5 minutes before soft resetting. Done? Go to G4.6.
G4.6 Follow this great thread by the-equinoxe: [solution] G4 SoftSPL Flash any ROM to CID locked G4 [UPDATED] and load the softSPL on your device using his method. Make sure you take a G4 safe rom (see the thread for details). After the steps you'll have the rom of your choise on your device!
G4.7 You're reade to flash the AKU2, AKU3, WM6 rom of you're choise IF the rom DOESN'T contain IPL/SPL. AKU3 and WM6 roms normally don't contain IPL/SPL. If you want to flash an AKU2 rom, make sure you take the G4 version. If you get an error 300 (invalid update tool) while trying to flash your device look at this thread!
NOTE: If you tried to flash a G3 rom with IPL/SPL in the rom on a G4 you probably will have a bricked device! DON'T flash the new 3.08 and 3.09 IPL/SPL to your G4!
NOTE2: If you got problems flashing with softSPL: Follow this great thread by mun_rus: Solutuion found: how to flash any rom to CIDLOCKED DEVICE. If your device won't start after flashing you can use step G4.2 and G4.3 and try again. Also look at this thread by eddieitman: Faria G4 Step by step installer with instructions to make sure you did all the necessary steps!
Crashed during flash
It has been suggested that I download Wizard Service Tool. OK, I did that. The Wizard Service Tool says to connect to ActiveSync. Can't do that. Phone is locked in Bootloader. It boots up into Bootloader. Any action requiring ActiveSync won't work as long as the phone is locked in Bootloader. Any suggestions as to procedures at this point. Remember, that trying to flash the ROM at this point, I get a message 300 that says I need to get a newer update utility.

For instance, if you are (like me) with TmobileUS, go to the Tmo site and go to the page that gives you the download to rom 2.26. I have that rom, if you are with Tmo, but won't be able to upload it until later...
http://tmobile.infospace.com/tmweb/...wnloadCenter/DeviceDownloads.aspx?deviceID=24
THAT^^^ is for TMOUSA...it is the official Tmo rom. If you are with cingular/att, you need to access their website and download their official rom, etc.
Hi I have a problem trying to exit from bootloader a PDA's friend, so how can I get to work the mtty?
Sometimes i gain exit with mtty of bootloader screen just kill usb conn in activesyng letthe device in bootloader an conect... select USB port click on OK button and then task 28 erase DOC Chip and then task 28 55aa ready to reflash the same rom that has the problem.
but now i try it on my device an aku3 ipl spl 3.08... on bootloader in a PC Vaio with XP home SP3and....
it say invalid comand
so the dir is CMD
NOT USB
how can i get usb on the dir?
Any body knows?
i had the mtty .01, 2.11 and 1.42 and no one works
any idea?
SADNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Somebody stole my wizard last night i was waiting for the BUS and two guys atacks me with a knife, they took my Wizard and my money. Again... and in some part i saw somebody called INSANAVACA saying that when the Mtty shows CMD we can put "format" and then choose the A character or B character... one of those options is the OS the other one... Neither him knows jeje and dont remember which one to chose... it starts to clean the DOC Chip.
It maybe works... i cant test it so if anyone can do it please, answer this maybe it works and we can get out of the Splash screens and bootloader stucks.
A long time ago I did this steps but the mtty shows me USB. full charge your batt, remove your SD and SIM card... enter in bootloaders... uncheck the activesync allow USB conection and kill Wcescomm.exe in Win XP taskmanager plug your device to usb, open mtty in all the places works even in the desktop... select USB in the drop menu... a blank screen will appear hit enter if it shows USB your done then... type:
task 28 (hit enter)
--it starts tho the cleaning--- done...
task 28 55aa (it works again in the same thing)
Close the mtty dont unplug your device and reflash it with the stock rom 2.26 Tmobile if you unplug the device you can try to plug it again but in the same port... (but my device is SuperCID unlocked) then goes to the custom ROM.
Maybe the "format" can works if in blank screen shows CMD... try it and let us know what happend ok?
I use the 1.42 Version.
hey thanks for the reply on my thread.maybe we can discuss my problem here.
my wizard is stuck at 2nd splash (the one with the ipl,spl,gsm and os versions)
falshing another rom do not fix the problem. ive even downgraded to several WM5 roms like wizard love, button rom and xda-mini s launcher.
i have a g3 cid sim unlocked wizard.
then lately i noticed, after attempting another manual hard reset, it says formatting failed. so maybe i need to force reset it using a pc. but wizard service tool wont work coz it will only work when synced on the pc.
can mtty forceley reset (hard reset) my wizard? how should i do it? what are the commands? thanks

I have redirect to a Universal commands for mtty but i cant be for sure if all works for wizards!
So download the mtty 1.42
Unplug your MiniSD card
Put your Wizard in bootloader mode
Kill the wcescomm or put in activesync not allow usb conections
then open the mtty
in ports or conectios you will see
com1
com2
com3
IRDA
USB
More or less I dont know deppending how many ports does your pc have.
choose USB
Be sure that your batt is almost 80% a 100% will be great but with 80% is fine
After choose USB dont move anymore and click ok... or connect something like that.
A blank white screen appear....
Then hit enter if it shows USB> type exactly this:
task 28
(it will work on something like clean the DOC CHIP at the end will show again USB>)
then type exactly this:
task 28 55aa
It will work again on something and
It will prepare the DOC Chip for the OS (FORMAT)
The device stills on bootloader so close the mtty dont unplug the device and downgrade to an original ROM WM5
These are the steps if the MTTY shows USB>
Select the USB port
hit enter in white screen
If it shows CMD>
type in the white screen after the CMD>
format
It will shows you what to choose option A or OPTION B
Here is the problem... Which one we need to choose...
and reflash an original ROM.
Tell us what happends please.
I HAVE MORE COMANDS but for G4 AND WHY IT WONT SHOWS USB!!!!!

Very good men!!! you're welcome.
Even if this method still hasn't been proved.
Here's a reason i'm taking Rom's out from Stickies.
So there's space for the important things like this on..
Let's face it sometimes a new thread on Bootfreezes and Bricks is more useful then an old one that people get discouraged by, because of it's length.
Made this one Sticky.

Cannot get Hard-SPL on your Treo 750? Want to unlock/unbrand your Treo 750?
Check attached files to make your life easier.
Here is a guide to having a successful flash:
1) Create an ActiveSync connection with your phone.
2) THIS STEP IS ONLY FOR VISTA/WIN7 USERS! Follow the guide at this website first and complete all the instructions!
3) Download CheetahUnlocker to your computer, and extract the program - DO NOT RUN IT YET.
4) Download the attached Treo750UnlockFiles.zip and extract it to your computer. Take CHEEIMG.nbh and athena_unlocker.exe and copy them to your SD card.
5) Open/Run CheetahUnlocker.exe, and agree to the warning message. This will open a box with 3 options (2 are greyed out).
Option1:
Click "Flash SPL"
Click Next
Click the checkbox, then click Next
Click the checkbox (again), then click Next (again)
Click the "Update" button, then click Next
At this point CheetahUnlocker will send files to your phone to bypass the protection and flash your phone (called SSPL) and start your phone in bootloader mode. You may have to agree (on your phone) to these files being sent! Since we have placed the CHEEIMG.nbh file on your SD card CheetahUnlocker may respond with an error, ignore this error and click OK, it will go back to its original screen - DO NOT CLICK THE SECOND OPTION YET.
Your phone will find the CHEEIMG.nbh file on your SD card when entering bootloader mode and confirm that you would like to flash the file. Press the "Power/End Call" button to flash this file now, it should go rather quickly and say "Update Success" if all goes well.
After it is finished, pin reset your device using your stylus and the small button near the SD card slot. Your phone will boot up as normal, let it finish entering the OS and reconnect to ActiveSync.
Optional: Enter bootloader to confirm the flash by holding down the "Media" button (round button on left side) and using your stylus on the pin reset button (near the SD card slot) simultaneously. If all went well you should see SPL-1.4.0.OliNex.
Option 2:
Click "Unlock Radio"
Click the checkbox, then click Next
Click the "Update" button, then click Next
The program will flash an unlocked version of the radio to your phone. After it is finished it will boot normally, wait until it is done and has reconnected to ActiveSync. Around this time the program will prompt you with a box telling you it has to send files to your phone to unlock it, this will fail with an error. Click continue and the program will go back to its original screen. On your phone, locate the athena_unlocker.exe file on your SD card using File Explorer/Total Commander/Resco Explorer and RUN it. The program has 2 options, check both of these, then click "Unlock". This will unlock your phone, but we aren't done yet!
Option 3:
Press and hold "Shift" and "2" on your keyboard and click the title bar of CheetahUnlocker. This will unlock all 3 options. Click the 3rd option "Flash Normal Radio".
Click Next
Click the checkbox, then click Next
Click the checkbox (again), then click Next (again)
Click the "Update" button, then click Next
CheetahUnlocker will flash a normal working radio to your phone so that it operates normally. After it is finished, the phone will reboot and load as normal.
Congratulations, your Treo 750 (Cheetah) is now unlocked, unbranded, and ready to go!

Thank you
Thank you for your contribution! I applied this to my 750 that was sitting around doing nothing so that I can give it to my niece. I haven't been able to test if it works yet as I don't have a SIM for another network. Everything went as you described so I am crossing my fingers.
thanks man it worked like a charm.... i also cant wait for your WM 6.5 cooked rom.. it will be off the chain
Hi,
My brother just gave me his Treo 750 to replace my broken Hermes. I'm trying to Hardspl this device but without the need to hook it up to the computer. My brother lost the usb connection for the Treo. Is there a way I can flash the Hardspl with a MiniSD card? Please help cause this official WM6 on here is locked to UMTS only...cannot change to GSM. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
newbie
several days ago i upgrade mytreo from wm 5 to 6.5, but for several item didn't work such a camera, button, & can't switch to silent, & can't turn off (at the red button), & can't read mini SD 2 GB,need for the info to fix it, how should i do?
It isn't working D:
When I attempt this, it goes smoothly, but the SIM unlock isn't happening. When I insert the SIM after running step 3, I get this:
You have tried 76 times, please wait until timeout....
The app is sim lock, and I can't go to any other window.
I cannot create an activesync on the step 1...because my treo stucks in palm logo..please help me navenedrob .....
Is it necessary to do option 1,2 and 3?
My Treo is already simlock-free , so...
Thanks in advanced,
Rickson

Read through the threads on the version of the 6.5 ROM you used. Some of the issues you are reporting are known bugs in various versions of 6.5 that have been posted.
For example, navenedrob has indicated he will be publishing an update to his 6.5 ROM which has fixes to most of his ROM's reported bugs, one of the major of which is the 'red button' issue you are experiencing.
