I tried to flash my Qtek 9100 to WM6 using the flashing tutorial on this site.
I followed the steps in the tutorial. I downgraded to Buttons ROM, unlocked the CID, and then I flashed the 3.08 IPL/SPL in stead of the T-Mobile 2.26.
Then I tried to use farias kitchen to make a WM6 and flashed it to the phone.
Everything seemed to go smoothly, but when I tried to start the phone after flashing the 3.08 and farias' to the phone, the phone just hangs at the startup screen with the picture of the beer glass and the coloseum.
I've tried to downgrade to Buttons firmware and I've also tried the Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM, but it doesn't help. I'm still stuck at the welcome screen.
Is there anything I can do, or have I bricked my phone for good?
flash an original qtek rom to your phone then try to flash the rom again
Your phone isnt bricked (yet)
I've done that, but it doesn't help. Still just hangs at the SPL/IPL screen.
Solution (worked for me)
I found a solution while looking trough the forum
I was facing the same problem on a G3 phone
this is copied from that link except the link to MTTY.exe is different (previous one doesn't work
See (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307332)
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.exe ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=231190 ). After open, on Port selection, choose USB 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.
I hope this helps you out
It worked for me (and other people if you look at the forums)
That solution was already known and was, in fact, discovered for the Wizard by a guy called 'Drugstore'
But what really matters is that this procedure only works if the device is already CID unlocked.
cheers
MDA Vario freezes at 2nd boot screen
I have the same problem. I flashed wm6.1 according to tutorial on this side. everything worked fine, until the time I uninstalled some application. after that my Vario froze. after soft reset it stopped on second screen (the one with info), and so it is anytime I try to reflash to other ROM. everything works fine until the time it shoud reboot.
I found this thread and tried the thing with backup image. everything worked, copying image to the phone ended with success. so I turned off the phone and started it again. but now, after all, I'm just back at the beginning
can somebody help me out with another solution??? pls.....
Try mtty

I didn't have chance to try this.... My Vario is already dead... Probably is my fault... As far, I wasn't able to flash to official T-mobile ROM, I did a backup copy to a SD card on my friends phone, and then tried to copy the image into mine... I'm afraid I destoyed bootloader this way After I turned off my phone first time after flashing, it didn't start again.... It doesn't react even to wall charger... Nothing... Just dead Vario
Get a powerfull charger

omg wtf do i do now?! my pc rebooted 31% into the flash.. it blue screened out of no where!
now its stuck on a IPL 2.21 screen!
this happened to me a few times as well. I just re-tried the flash from another machine and it worked fine.
but i cant establish a active-sync connection because the phone wont start it just stays at the 2.21 screen thats red/green/blue/white! omg im about to cry what do i do lol
I have seen the same screen, and have also had the computer blue screen on me probably 3 or 4 times now. When i plugged it into another machine with activesync, i ran the updater and it worked fine.
im trying it right now on 2nd pc still downloading the rom file tho
ok i was able to flash using another computer thank god!
:lol:
Can you post the steps of reflashing the wizard? I've tried a flash on another system, but it still doesn't work...
My steps:
1. Install Active Sync 4.1
2. Connect the wizard on usb
I've tried to downgrade the wizard with wizbackup. wizbackup need to flash IPL/SPL 1.01. The flash was ended without errors. But now the wizard starts and I only see the three colors and the version of IPL/SPL. Then I connect the wizard, Active Sync doesn't get a connection to the phone.
UPDATE:
In another thread I read that the wizard can't be flashed in IPL/SPL 1.01 without an OS. Can anyone verify this information or help me?
UPDATE II:
I finaly found out, that the phone can be restored with an image from the sd-card.
1. Put an image from the system to sd-card with psdwrite.exe
2. Power Off the phone and put in the sd-card
3. Power on the phone holding the camera key
4. Then the bootloader is coming up, press the voice key during 3s
5. The bootloader upgrades your phone from sd-card
Good luck!
that **** happens to me all the time, it always crashes to the boot loader and once its there you can just restart the upgrade no problem. if you need to boot into the boot loader then simply, from a turned off state, hit the wifi button, voice command button and power button, then release the power only and it will boot into the tri colored boot loader. then reinstall your image and soon you will be kickin it with your **** in it once again! booyakasha!
actually now that i think about it that will just go to the hard reset screen. you really just want to stick the stylus in the reset hole if you need to get to boot loader i think. i dont remember off hand.. just mess with it. if you break it just say you got it that way and exchange that ****
I have a problem and I've search the forums and search google and I find people with somewhat of the same situation im in... but the methods to fix them don't work.
My problem is,
I have a T-Mobile WING (Herald)
I am flashed on soft SPL with SPL 4.70.Yang
I am ROM flashed to Touch-It WM6.1
I want to flash back to the stock T-Mobile Rom
I run the Stock RUU and it enters the bootloader and at 1% the wing resets
I then get a connection error 260 and the flash will not proceed.
I have tryed restarting my device/computer. unplugging my usb putting in another slot... and still nothing. Any help would be appreciated I'm really unhappy with Touch-It and want to go back to stock and do some customization that way.
you need to extract the .nbh file from the stock rom using 7-zip or winrar on the ruu executable. Make sure you don't extract the spl.nbh file. I think the file you want is something like RUU_signed.nbh
then put it into your HardSPL folder and flash away
Yep. Besides, 4.70.Yang is a HardSPL, not a softspl. If you want the SPL to also return back to stock for warranty issues, then just use USPL along with the tmobile NBH. If not, do what fzzyrn said for the best results.
Got to this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421304
Go to post #2 and download the Herald-USPL-beta3
extract the nbh file from your rom and place it in the ruu folder that is located in the flash center folder.
run the utility.

The S620 is not a herald and every phone is different, so I'm not sure if we could help you out. Does your phone have a HardSPL? Have you used HardSPL before? Even if the activesync icon doesn't start trying to sync it doesn't mean that it's not connected, it just means that it has nothing to sync (since it's in bootloader mode.)
I FIXED
I Did These Steps:
I Turned My Phone Off
I Pressed The Camera Icon Button
I Turned The Phone On (no Loose The Camera Button)
It Got Into Boot Mode
I Plugged To The Usb Cable
I Oppenned The Ruu For My Phone Version
And Wowla Fixed
Thank You Guys For Your Help
The Answer is in a Careful Search
This post is being made to you about... a month too late. But that's because I just got the Wing yesterday and started trying out roms today. Anyway, ran into the same problem earlier today and found the answer in the forums. I've written the following for those who might need all the steps. In your case, read from step 3. Anyway, in case you still have this problem, here's what you do:
1. Hold camera button when pressing the soft reset to get into the bootloader; it should be in red blue green and white. something like that.
2. Connect the usb to the computer and run the stock RUU Utility (this can be found on the official t-mobile website. look under something like support/downloads for the Tmobile Wing)
3. When it hits the 1%, the phone will automatically restart. When it does this, it breaks the connection between the computer and the phone. At that instant, hold the camera button and the soft reset button. Then, when you let go of the reset button, it should go back to boot loader.
4. At this point, the Rom Utility should give you the error. Do not take out the battery as instructed. Just disconnect the usb, reconnect the usb, wait for the computer to recognize it (it should appear in my computer) and then just continue the utility.
Good luck. =)
i had the same problem flashing my P4350 yesterday. tried a lot of different things, the solution for me was:
1. start flashing from the bootloader
2. just to hold the camera button when the phone restarted after 1% (nothing else, no soft reset or anything).
this resulted in the phone restarting in bootloader again, and after that it just resumed upgrading the rom.

This one works for me. Thx!
hi people.
hopefully 1 of you guys can help.
i flashed a dutty rom on my blackstone a while ago, and everything went fine. then a month or so later, for no reason, my fone just shuts off, 5 or 6 times a day. so i decided to flash the original software to see if its a hardware prob and then hopefully get the fone replaced.
the only problem is i managed to sync my fone ONCE since i put dutty's rom on and never since then. even in boot loader the fone only ever says "serial" and never, ever usb. i've tried different leads, different pc's, and these leads and pc's will connect to my old trinity which still flashes a dream!
so i reckon there must be some connection prob in the blackstone itself. any thoughts?
i read somewhere that you can flash from the memory card. so i got a rom, and copied it to the root of the card, then started in bootloader. it flashed up a grey screen with some writing on, then straight to the bootloader screen so fast, i never got chance to read what it said. did i not get something right?
the rom is titled "BLACIMG.nbh" on the card
thx in advance

First off all Flashing queries should be posted in this thread.
To answer your question.......If you are only getting 'serial' at bottom of bootloader I'd recommend flashing original stock rom which came with your device first before trying to flash a cooked rom. This original stock rom can be flashed even if it states 'serial' in bootloader (note - this is the only rom this will work with). Stock roms can be found here. Once you have flashed this stock rom, use this guide to flash rom
For your info, flashing from sd card should be done as follows:
Copy BLACIMG.nbh into the root dir of your Storage Card.
Be sure to have at least 30% of charge.
Turn off your device by using the Power Button
If you use HardSPL: Go to bootloader mode. Push and hold Vol Down + press Power button. The device will display a message and offer you to flash.
If you use USPL: Remove your microSD card first to prevent starting the flash, then go into bootloader mode. When in bootloader mode insert the card and follow the instructions on the USPL page to start USPL. The device will restart into USPL and will now present you the message to flash.
As soon as presented the message, push Power button to start flashing or Volume Down button to cancel.
The whole procedure will take about 3 minutes. After you finish and see the relative message, soft reset your device, you are ready.
Please post further flashing queries in dummies guide thread

Please help, I was uninstalling some applications from my HTC PURE and had to restart the phone, when it was rebooting it hung at the ATT screen and there was small red text in the bottom left screen.
I had previously installed HardSPL 1.83 but relocked it via instructions in 2nd post because I'm still deciding if I wanna keep the phone and didn't wanna do anything for warrenty reasons.
I have the stock ROM and never installed anything except the HardSPL and the revert.
Please help me, I have tried to load the ATT Pure Stock/Shipped ROM I found here but everytime I try to in the bootloader mode it says either "no image file" or hangs at loading depending what I've tried to name the file. Also I've tried to run customruu.exe to install the stock ROM and also tried to install HardSPL 1.83 but it hangs at 0% and eventually wants to do recovery on the PC.
How do I fix this problem, and preferabbly get it back stock. I do have a warrenty, well unless I violated it by installing HardSPL then doing the revert.
Thanks

Of course you hard reset?
Make sure your SD card is formatted to Fat32 and you may mant to try a different card, 2gb - 4gb.
What does your SPL say now in bootloader mode?
Yes I tried a hard reset. I can try another sd card the one I used was fat32 and 2gb. I believe it says 1.33 can't look now but I know it's not the same as an untouched pure.
Help!
You are not the only one who is having this issue. I am frustrated beyond frustrated. How are other people flashing their out of the box ATT Pures using the same exact steps but I can't? It's making no sense.
1. I turn off firewalls.
2. I've tried both usb and sd card boot, didnt work
3. I installed the enablerapi cab
Nothing works and I am having the same problem you are having...it stays on 0% forever and it doesnt even prompt me saying there is an error it just sits on 0% until I unplug it...

Are you trying to HSPL or flash a ROM?
Well
According to what i've read, you have to do Hard SPL before you flash a rom, so i've been trying to HardSPL and it doesn't work! I even tried to skip the step and just flash the rom and it doesnt work..
Now, I also have an ATT Tilt to and I JUST flashed a rom 30 mins ago, so it has nothing to do with firewalls or anything as far as my computer goes, I think its the phone, so what can I do?

Its a good thing flashing the ROM didn't work, you'd be bricked.
For flashing HSPL, it seems that newer phones are having an issue.
Something may have been changed that is preventing the unlocker from working.
Do the following;
1. Hard Reset
Instructions:
- Soft reset with stylus
- Hold Vol up & Vol dwn simultaneously until white screen appears
- Following screen prompts, Press Vol up to confirm.
2. Go to bootloader mode.
Instructions:
- Turn off your device using the power button
- When the device is turned off, simultaneously press the Vol dwn + Power button
- Your device will startup in Bootloader mode
Should say SPL: 1.33 or something.
3. Sync your phone to your PC.
4. Install enablerapinew.cab
5. Unzip both Topaz_CustomRUU_v1.1.zip & SPL_183.zip to the same folder
6. Run the CustomRUU.exe
This process should install HSPL and now when you enter bootloader mode you should see something like SPL: 1.83 Olinex.
If so, you're ready to start flashing custom ROMs.
If not, please report all errors to the HSPL thread or PM Olipro.
**I take no responsibility for any loss of data or functionality of your device.**
See, the problem with your instructions are...
1. You cannot soft reset with the stylus, I don't see a button anywhere on the phone ( ATT PURE not Diamond 2 )
2. Holding Vol up & Vol down simultaneously until white screen appears doesn't work. The only thing that works is when I hold Vol Down and the screen with the colors come up, not a white screen.
So i'm still lost. Thanks for your help regardless. I just really want to flash a new rom so I can stop using this stupid slow ATT rom.
So basically you are messing with your Pure and don't know how to soft reset?
Remove the stylus and in the groove for the stylus is a red dot, that is the red reset button. Insert the tip of the stylus in the red dot and push. Now the Pure will soft reset.
Probably should familiarize yourself with the device before you finish turning it into a brick!
Oh wow. That is so hidden.
On my Touch Pro 2 its right there on the side where you can see it, with words.
Anyway, Thank you very much, i'll try that.
Still, what about the Up and Down button volume button function so I can go into bootloader mode?

Now that you found the soft reset button.... follow my procedures.
Note- you have to hold the keys IMMEDIATELY after soft reset before the boot screen appears.

Didn't work, I re-did the steps you listed 3 times over to make sure I was correct and the same results. I guess ATT has found a way to stop their phones from being unlocked.

You should probably post over in the HSPL thread.
You'll get more help over there. There are many others having similar issues and there may be a fix over there.
FYI, when you get to the tri colored screen, that is where it shows what SPL you have currently.
Updating rom freeze
Hi, I don't post much if at all, normally you guys have it right on the button, this is my 3rd phone to run custom roms on but for some reason it just freezes on the "Updating ROM image on your PDA Phone..." screen and doesn't continue past, on my last 2 phones active sync worked well with updating to custom roms,seems like my Pure produces the same error after the attempt, its a communication error "ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR", now recovering from the error is not a issue, we all have familiarity in that area but I was wondering if it could be something as simple as the cable that was sent with my phone or if its possible to flash rom through sd card as opposed to using active sync?

Yes, you can flash through storage card, just rename the .nbh to TOPAIMG.nbh, Put in root of storage card and enter bootloader mode.
You have HSPL'd, right?

Just to confirm, you have to name it exactly "TOPAIMG.nbh".
With all of the people that have tried all methods and still can't flash, something must have changed in the stock SPL.

From HTC site (HTC Pure support):
What is a Soft Reset and how is it performed?
A soft reset basically resets the memory structure in the handheld. This recovers the device from memory conflicts, corrupted system service chains (mainly due to attempting hacks), memory leaks, and system lockups due to the “Fatal Exception” program errors. Removing the battery from the device while it is still powered on is NOT a soft reset and can actually damage the device.
A Soft Reset is performed by:
Remove the Battery cover and the Stylus from the device.
Insert the tip of the stylus into the Reset hole located at the entry point of the stylus silo.
The device will reboot.
I dont know whether i have asked a dumb question or not but i've searched for all the forum, it's all "discussing" and too much scattered thing that i still cant see the specified way for my phone.
Yes, again this question, I tried to flash Energy Rom on my phone, by USB and by SD card, everytime i reboot or turn off my phone, i will need to connect through USB to boot on, or not it will display tri-color screen and flash No Image File. I copied the image file to SD card and now when i boot the phone it tell me to update the rom on SD card... And if i delete this image on my SDcard then...it's again, nothing too much to say...
Is there any way to let my phone boot on without USB wired and no tri-color screen (i guess i hate that much).
Hope getting help from you all, and please tell me step by step, i'm newbie anyway, please.
By the way, anything related to mtty or HardSPL, SoftSPL i still dont work it out. Please give me some tips.

Hope getting help from you all, and please tell me step by step, i'm newbie anyway, please.
By the way, anything related to mtty or HardSPL, SoftSPL i still dont work it out. Please give me some tips.

As i pay attention to the bootloader, i'm sure that it's already made the HardSPL and the phone can recognize the image on the SD Card or by USB method. The first ROM was flash on the phone is not me, this is my friend's phone, I'm just trying to help him around then.
I tried to flash the rom by USB method, but when i restarted the phone without the USB connected to PC, it did show the bootloader (i just touch the power button, not volumn button or any other key)~ then i plug USB which connect the phone to pc, soft reset it and it boot to the system again.
I try to flash it by SD-card method but it still the same. I mean that the phone can be flashed new ROM, but it's just keeping get into the bootloader everytime i restart the phone
If the image is on the SD Card it'll tell me to upgrade ROM, if the image is not on the SD Card then "No Image File!" was flashed on~
Any ideas? My friend tells me that this happened when he tried to install Sogou - chinese input application. Is there any conflicted that cause this matter?
for little detail, the phone always shows up Successfully, but it still enter the bootloader mode at next restart. Is my flash-job done or just a mistake one?
additionally, this may be bad... remove the battery doesnt work. Please help.
help me please, do i have to hardspl again? I still cant enter WM unless i have a usb wire connected phone to pc and softreset it. Any idea?

hm, since you said the first flashed job was not yours, i think it's better that you repeat the whole procedures again starting from hardspl. but make sure you're using the correct version. re-download again if you're not sure.
also while most people rarely done so, it's bad to have multiple rom image exist in any root folder in your phone, storage card and your pc flashing tool folder (.nbh, .rom, etc), but sometimes people do forget or **** just happens.
I recommend that you remove both sim & microsd card before going any further.
then try to boot into wm with usb cable connected like you said.
take a quick look at folder and file structure in the rom. from here i would do it slightly different than others, with no battery pulls, just using the reset button. (imho, every battery pull may cause unforeseen damage especially with power still running.)
a. push hard reset combo button (don't let go) and push reset for a few secs to hard reset.
b. after hard reset rebooting the phone, push bootloader/rom update combo buttons and hit reset for a few sec. remember to keep pushing those buttons while you release the reset pin.
c. reflash hardspl, repeat step b, reflash rom. allow rom to finish doing its job. some rom may go to sleep while installing/customizing, don't let that happend.
d. just do random thing like play a game or whatever for a few minutes or more. then soft reset or power down.
e. turn on phone and wait, if problem's solved. if it is, hard reset again. continue as usual. if it's not, try other rom (ask people for md5 checksum, compare with your download). if none works, find more help.

I've just tried out the task29, it's done normally, then flash the new rom.
1. I dont think the rom are buggy, because i changed between 2 roms and it's the same matter.
2. I dont need to use bootloader/rom update combo button because it's directly entered whenever i turn on the phone (without connected to pc) (i really really dont know why)
3. Hard reset and i have my WM work again but it's still the romupdate at boot time.
I wonder if jumpSPL did all this problems, I tried mtty by task 0 and set 14 0 but it wont restart the phone, tried to format the ROM by mtty (task 32) but it wont weep out, errors given: bad... at address...
Why does it always want me to update the ROM? Is there anything wrong with jumpSPL?
the problem still, please help me give a look to this.
ouch, last time I use mttty were ancient wm2003 era. i'll try to look for info, but can't promised anything.
at this point it's recommended to reflash the complete original stock rom, undo hardspl.
check the hardspl thread about restoring to factory default. best luck to you.
