I dont know much, but i think its that you tried to downgrade withe a wizard that dosent support downgradeing. i.e spl/ipl ending with .001 i will just say try and get a replacement.

This is exactly why there are so many replies to newbies saying "Read, Read, Read and then read some more".
I'd agree with the theory that your device was a G4 chip (which should never be flashed with a 1.x Rom).

If he can get the boot loader then he can flash the previous rom back :wink:
i am not sure which key u have to press. best man to ask is buzz lightyear

The problem is that I can't enter in BootLoader mode. I try with camera+reset and camera+voice+reset but the screen is always black.

Can't you return it to Imate with a story that the battery was empty, you wanted to charge it, but it stay dead?
I hope you got warranty.

I got the same problem after upgrade my MDA Vario(T-mobile NL) by using RUU_Prodigy_2170702_217_20710_TMO_US.exe from the ftp.
It looks like no power at all. Anyone knows how to solve this?

Revive this bricked (?) Wizard!

I'm trying to fix my friend's MDA right now. The problem is, it's stuck on T-Mo splash screen. It can however go to tri-color screen. Can I save this MDA or should I bury it?
Any help would be appreciated

Hi!
At the tri-color screen you should be able to flash it with a new ROM. Just try it, that worked for me after a failed flash.
Cheers

I just had the same problem myself, talk about ****ting my pants.
I have a Dutch rom in my Vario and I cid unlocked it and tried installing
a US rom but the phone was dead after it.
In the tri-color screen I tried to load the new 2.26 US rom and then the latest UK rom but both failed with invalid Vendor id or something like that.
So I downloaded the NL rom from here and thnk god it loaded without a problem and the Vario is working again.
Sadly in Dutch but at least it works again, can anyone from Holland help me upgrade to the latest US rom ?.

Encountered some problem..
It would not connect to ActiveSync from tri-color screen. There is a 'USB' at the bottom screen when I plug in the USB cable, but I don't think the PC recognizes the device.
And the thing is my friend has never CID unlock the thing
He said he just took it overseas and never turned it off, when he got back here the phone went like this.
More help please

PC doesn't need to recgonize the device via activesync to flash the Rom.

Try and find your original rom.
Put the phone in the bootloader (canaryscreen aka tri-colored screen).
plug-in your usb plug.
And start the rom update utility.
Regardless of your activesync status it should start updating your mda.
This takes about 10 minutes, and will pause at some stage, don't be alarmed and don't pull the plug !!!
Good luck

Can I update using the latest ROM (2.26)? Why does it have to be original rom?

Even tho PC cannot detect the phone at all, rom update util still can go thru?
I will try again tonight, last night I tried, 2.26 rom update utility cannot detect the mda
Good luck

It's recomended to go back to the original rom, so you can go back to the point before the problems began..

In canary-screen mode the phone will have an active usb connection, ActiveSync won't detect it however, because the ActiveSync software on the phone is only started when windows-mobile is running (which doesn't occur in boot-loader).
The Rom Upgrade Utility, should be able to detect the phone.
But always make shure the battery has been charged (at least half-charged).
Several people on this forum have revived their semi-bricked phone this way.
Thanks :wink:

Gray screen? Sounds like you are stuck in the bootloader. Try flashing it again.

Which is your phone G3 or G4,if its a G3,did you CID unlock it before upgrading to IPL/SPL 3.08.Did you have a fully charged battery before flashing ? this cud be sign of a dead battery also.

Thanks for getting back to me. Its a G4 I didnt bother doing the CID unlock, just went for the upgrade of the SPL. After the SPL update it went back into WM5. I left the phone over the weekend on charge but the charge light never came on.
Thanks Kev

I believe you've bricked your phone by flashing unappropriated bootloader to it.
Attach here the IPL/SPL you flashed to see if they are indeed G3 files

I Used the
Mobile 6.1 ROM_Wizard_OCTAIVOI_Core_19716_v6.3_PP6MB
Build from the wizard mobile 6 part of the forum.
And the SPL is
http://rapidshare.com/files/107435245/IPL_SPL_3.08.rar.html
It worked fine on the last one i done.
Is there anyway to recover from a brick?

I asked to upload the file here because i can't access rapidshare from work...

what i want to know is as it has a cooked rom and olinex installed and i bought it new from someone who was selling their upgrade will they be-able to tell whats on the phone if it is bricked and then refuse to fix it or cos it is bricked they`ll never be-able to see what rom etc is installed on it??? it was originally on the orange network uk so would that affect the repair??
any help would be much appreciated keep up the good work to all xda-developers and forum user`s cheers tony

If you flashed the Tytn SPL to a Diamond, you can forget it, it is a shiny paperweight...
Unless the JTAG points for the device are found it is most definitely a brick.

lol thought as much lol thats what happens when you have more than one phone lol would they know it has a cooked rom installed when they investigate why it bricked? cheers

If they unbrick it, then yes, they will know it has a custom ROM flashed to it. However, they will still fix it and just bill you.

damn lol is there a way of blagging it so if i say i bought the phone with the cooked rom installed already and thought that was the original rom from new?? just play dumb lol is it expensive if they unbrick it?? cheers
just to add that dutty`s rom was great and had nothing to do with me bricking my phone. just incase people interpret me the wrong way and think its a rom problem

morning all my phone is being picked up today and was just wondering if they do fix or reflash my phone will it be back to being locked to the orange uk network again even though i unlocked it??? cheers

HTC will flash the most recent ROM available for your device. If your phone is Orange branded, then that is the ROM they will flash to it.

thanks for that mate but i need to know if it will be locked back to orange uk meaning can i use any sim card or will it be on orange uk only cheers

anyone else with any suggestions please cos i`m getting a bit worried that htc will refuse to repair and if they do how much the cost will be. has anyone from the uk had the same problem and bricked there phone? and how much does it cost for them to repair?? thank you

just an update about my repair got my diamond back today and they replaced the main board cos i bricked the diamond so i have a new imei number and life time call counter is back to zero i never got charged for this repair and now i can even hard reset the phone where before it wouldn`t work so have faith if you have bricked your diamond
