I have been trying to unbrick my 750 treo, apparently my Radio bootloader is corrupted. I have scoured this forum and the internet trying to find a solution.
I've used mtty to try to at least erase or use task 2a, but nothing happens. None of the commands seem to work. I tried the password 0000000000000000
which says its invalid.
I also tried BsaD5SeoA, and it says it passes, but rtask, erase or task 2a and lnb command don't do anything. I have tried mtty 1.11 and 1.42 and neither one will work.
Is there a special microsoft library that I need to install in order to access these commands? I am at a loss why everything I try doesn't work. There has got to be a solution for this. I've tried reflashing the ROM 10 times now, tried mtty, tried the AT&T rescue program.
Is the phone bricked beyond repair?
Any help would be appreciated
I guess it is a major brick, oh well, it'll cost me more to take it in for repair than it would to just buy another used one off eBay.
Keep it around for parts.
The Windows Mobile 6.5 made it a pretty worthwhile phone.
I'll be back...
Have you tried flashing Olipro's Hard-SPL just to see if it will work? I know for a fact his SPL will accept task 2a... task 28... etc. The OEM SPL won't accept those commands and I bet your phone is still stuck on it and that is why they won't work. How do you know that it is your radio that is corrupted and nothing else? You might be able to unbrick it through some trickery.

Download the attachment in that post, disregard the files accept for the CHEEIMG.nbh (it is Hard-SPL 1.40). Load the NBH to your SD card and try to flash it. If you can flash it or jump through some loops and get a miracle then there is a chance to fix your phone.
Yeah, I've tried that, it just goes to 7% and then the phone reboots on its own. Also if I try to flash from the SD card it won't recognize anything but an official ROM. When I do a Mtty "checkimage" command, when it verifies the radio, it times out with 0x0 CRC.
With everything I've researched, the only thing that will repair this phone is the right security password for Mtty. So I took another route.
I just purchased a Treo with a broken screen for cheap, so I'm going to swap out the screen and start over. And am going to make sure I have Hard-SPL 1.40 on the phone this time.
Thanks for the help and all of your hard work.
We Treoites appreciate it.
Looking forward to trying the new ROM

I' m usando un traductor es esperanza de I que usted puede leer. Usted necesitará destellar con el unlocker del cheeta antes de que usted pueda utilizar mtty.

Hello M8s, im in Chinaa, and my Hd7 from T-mobile is in English... soo, is there anyway to put Spanish on a T-mobile HD7? because the autocorrection tool is making me crazy.
hope someone help me, tku.
Yes, it is possible by flashing the HTC factory ROM to your device with a carrier ROM. Look in the debranding threads or the "HTC_Europe" ROM threads and the goldcard thread.
do you have the exact link so i dont mess up

Y hace un mes logré por fin flashear mi HD7 T-mobile, y dejarlo en Español. Gracias a la GoldCard, es muy simple.
Con este metodo puedes instalar cualqueir Rom, yo ahora acabo de instalar la ultima europea, con actualizacion.
Lo unico que no he podido, es editar los NV, para que me funcione el 3G.
Cualquier dato que requieras favor consultar...

hi guys, I tried the goldcard method and I couldn't.
I did the goldcard method for many phones before, but I think the cable is my problem.
I bought a cable on ebay (for an external hard drive) and I also tried to make it myself.
Any of you made the cable??
i did it [email protected]
Have you guys tried this?

Please let me know if it works.
Hi there, newcomer to the forum hailing from the Dominican Republic and complete neophyte in the art of modifying handsets. Please bear with me. =p
My info:
Phone model: Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 E15i
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404006
Kernel version: 2.6.29 / [email protected] #1 (after rooting)
Build number: 2.0.1.A.0.47
Carrier: Orange Dominicana
My issue:
A couple of weeks ago I purchased a Sony Ericsson Xperia X8, and recently found out that Ericsson was not going to push any OS updates to the X8 and some X10 phones. I didn't mind this much until I noticed my phone doesn't have multitouch support (which I've been told is managed through software, though I have no idea if this is true), and so I've been looking into the possibility of upgrading. (Another reason is the fact that I want to get rid of all the bloatware on the phone something fierce, but that's beside the point.)
Today I rooted my phone successfully with SuperOneClick using this guide, but I haven't dared do anything else because the guide specifically states this...
First, before you do anything else, you need to update your phone using PC Companion [...]
The latest version is 2.1.1.A.0.6, and the latest baseband is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015.
[...]
Click to expand...

...and my phone has, as explained above, different build and baseband versions than the ones mentioned by the guide.
Before rooting the phone, I tried connecting it to my Wifi and updating the phone software from there, and when that didn't work, I tried connecting it to my PC and running the PC Companion application from Ericsson and checking for updates, and still no go.
Being a C# code monkey, I know exactly how potentially dangerous screwing around with wrong versions of stuff can get, so I haven't even tried to do anything beyond rooting the handset. Is there any way I can get my software to the required versions in the guide linked above, or can I follow the guide disregarding those values, or am I missing something here?
Any help would be extremely appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Basebands there:

Thanks very much for your reply. Time to look for that FlashTool thing.
On an slightly unrelated note, however, my phone now sticks itself through a boot loop whenever I connect it to my PC and mount the SD card for file access after I rooted it. Any idea why? Thanks in advance!
Try enter xRecover/CWM recovery during boot and restore backup (if you have done it).
If not - SEUS for stock software then start again root etc.
Sh1k1, dominicano? debieras hablar en español espero que sí, por que acá hay un tutorial http://www.chilecomparte.cl/topic/1445186-rootear-actualizar-personalizar-x8-e15a/
fíjate bien por que los números que hay que cambiar en build.prop son específicos para el E15i o el E15a. Al parecer, en la página los números que aparecen son para el E15a, pero googleando un poco encontrarás los tuyos. SUERTE!
Pues sí, parlo la castilla perfectamente considerando que es mi lengua materna, pero lo primero que hago al registrarme a cualquier foro nuevo es leer el reglamento, y según vi, no está exactamente dentro de las reglas postear en otros idiomas aparte del inglés. =p Dado que tengo todos los años del mundo hablando inglés, a decir verdad no es que realmente me importe el cambio de idioma. =)
Para ser honesto, soy de los tipos más vagos que vas a conocer en tu vida, y ya esto de cambiarle el firmware al teléfono me está sabiendo más agrio de lo que esperaba. La única razón por la que quería hacerlo, la verdad, era para desinstalar toda la basura del fabricante (Facebook, TimeScape y demás porquerías), pero esto está dando la pinta de dar demasiada lata, y la verdad es que lo estoy pensando dos veces antes de seguir adelante. Total, conseguí una aplicación que me permitió guardar en una carpeta toda la basura que no uso, y hasta donde cabe, estoy bastante conforme con el teléfono como está... >_>
Hi All, I just bought a SIM unlocked Vivid, still on his way to me tough, and I pretend to upgrade to ICS as soon as I receive it. So I went ahead on my investigation, and after spending several hours trying to understand how the ICS upgrade works, and how to do it without bricking or boot-looping it. I read thoroughly the SUPERGUIDE thread, saw some videos, and read HTC Vivid's support page (sorry I'm not allowed to post any link yet), but still I'm quite confused or unsure on the best process to follow. Sincerely after reading and reading, and searching many threads I got more confused. Although I've got a technology background, I'm completely new to this flashing-ROM-upgrading world.
My question is simple, I pretend to use the HTC Vivid page's instructions to perform the upgrade manually using the RUU ICS (444 MB) provided there (since I don't have any access to the AT&T network), and use "HTC SYNC 3.0.5617 FOR HTC VIVID™ (AT&T)" installed on my PC to flash the phone.
Assuming that the phone comes with the stock Gingerbread ROM and with the bootloader locked, since it's only SIM unlocked. If I understood correctly SIM unlocking has no relation with bootloader unlocking.
Can someone validate if I'm right? Or if not point me to the right direction?
Once you unlock your bootloader and achieve S-Off you should be able to upgrade regardless of what carrier your are or aren't using.
What carrier are you using ?

I'm currently outside the States, in Costa Rica, the carriers we have down here are a state owned, Movistar (Spaniard company) and Claro (Mexican company). None have the ICS upgrade available, not even HTC phones.
Does your answer mean that if the phone is SIM unlocked them the bootloader is unlocked too?
Thanks.
Franz
No, you will also need to unlock you bootloader using the HTCdev site and then achieve S-Off before you upgrade to ICS.
Check out the superuser guide for help with these two steps.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836
If this helped you please hit the Thanks button.
Just update your phone with RUU and then unlock the bootloader with the All in one Tool or the instructions in HTC Dev.
Before that you may decide install a custom rom with the recommended kernel, perm root, s-off etc.
Remember you have to use RUU with a locked or relocked bootloader.
This are the steps I followed for upgrading to ICS
Thanks to Archector and Esloan, both advices were very useful.
Just for the record, this is what I did for my succesful ICS upgrade:
I read, read, and read to clearly understand what Bootloader, S-Off / S-On, Recovery, Stock ROM, etc. is all about. This forum will be a great place to do this. The following steps shouldn't taken as final word, you should be able to understand if you can continue when some steps differ a bit.
2 Once clear on all these concepts, and clear on what I wanted to do, I downloaded the ICS stock ROM named as 'htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe' and downloaded the HTC Sync Software into my computer (both from HTC's support page).
Installed the HTC Sync Software. This software installs all proper drives needed to communicte the PC with the phone. BTW I'm using Win 7.
On the phone disabled the 'Fastboot' option. Went to Settings > Power > Un-tick the 'Fastboot' checkbox. Enabled USB Debugging at Settings > Applications > USB Debugging. Then switched off the phone and waited 5 seconds (aprox.) after screen went off. Be sure you have enough battery charge and the phone is NOT connected to the PC.
Now turned on the phone into the 'Bootloader' mode (hold the Volume_DOWN button and while holding it press the Power button until the Bootloader screen shows). If you don't know what I'm talking about then you'll need to read much more and widen your understanding on these concepts.
Checked that the first line of the Bootloader screen reads 'Locked'. If not I advice to stop here and better follow the very comprehensive guides for upgrading that can be found in this forum. To go out of Bootloader mode navigate to 'Fastboot' menu item (with the volume keys), select it (Power button), and select 'Reboot'.
If Bootloader is locked connect the phone to the PC using the USB cable provided with the phone. The PC will recognize the device since the HTC Sync is already installed and running in the background. Win 7 shows a globe indicating that the device is recognized.
On the PC I browsed to where the RUU executable was downloaded and ran this installation utility. Then followed the onscreen instructions.
After several minutes in the process, status bars on the PC and the phone completing. Then disconnected the phone from the PC and rebooted the phone. After reboot the phone was on ICS!
Refer to the 'Upgrade the AT&T HTC Vivid to Ice Cream Sandwich via leaked RUU' article on the Android Authority site since this is where I took them.
And remember that my phone was a stock Vivid, never changed the Bootloader, never installed any type of ROM, the current ROM was a stock GB, model HTC PH39100 and the phone is SIM unlocked.
I'm posting this with the hope to help someone else in the same situation and has concerns about upgrading to ICS and bricking the phone in the process.
Update to ICS on att htc vivid sim unlocked
Hi All,
I understood how to update to ICS.But,can you clearly tell me what are the important prerequisites to be considered before doing.Confused at bootloader ,whether it should be locked or unlocked and what S-on/s-off.it should be on or off? where i have to check it?
Please guide me so that i can update to ICS.
Thank you

Bueno raza, aquí les va!
Lo primero es leer, leer, leer y seguir leyendo hasta entender claramente la diferencia entre 'bootloader', s-off/s-on, recovery, stock ROM, etc. Hay que advertir que hacer una actualización de ROM es un proceso delicado y te puedes 'cag...', es decir, pasear en el celular. Y efectivamente... luego de este proceso de actualización se borra todo absolutamente del cel, queda como nuevito nuevito, por eso se debe respaldar todo lo que no esté en la nube, es decir, datos de aplicaciones, mensajes, calendarios, contactos, etc. De hecho en 'Google Play' hay muchas aplicaciones para esto. Una vez actualizado se debe configurar de nuevo, incluyendo cuentas de correo, gmail, etc.
Una vez claros con estos conceptos, y claro con lo que quieres hacer, es decir, actualizar el ROM solamente, o rootear el teléfono, o ambas cosas, o actualizar a un ROM de fábrica (stock ROM) o a un ROM especializado (custom ROM), yo establecí los pasos a seguir con claridad. Incluso para no cometer errores en el proceso hice una lista sencilla con los pasos que iba a realizar.
En mi caso yo solo quería actualizar el ROM de mi Vivid para todo tipo de tarjetas SIM (SIM Unlocked) a ICS, ambos ROMs de fábrica. Es decir, del ROM que traía el cel (era un 'stock GB') a un 'stock ICS'. Yo estaba seguro que el ROM que tenía era de fábrica porque hice la actualización a ICS cuando apenas tenía 24 horas de haber recibido el cel, recién comprado en EE.UU. en su estado original. Incluso venía en su caja y bolsa sellada. Este proceso solo funciona si el cel tiene el 'Bootloader' cerrado o bloqueado (que es distinto a SIM unlocked), y cuando el ROM de GB es el de fábrica. Si no es tu caso debes usar otro proceso para no 'briquear' el cel.
Por tanto bajé el 'stock ICS' a mi compu localmente desde una página de soporte ubicada en el sitio oficial de HTC, Si entras a su homepage y seleccionas 'Support' desde el menú superior y seleccionas tu celular (Vivid) la encuentras fácilmente. El archivo con el ROM que utilicé se llama 'htc_vivid_att_ruu_3.26.502.56_us.exe', no se si ahora hay una versión actualizada y el nombre habrá cambiado un poco.
Luego bajé desde esa misma página el software para sincronizar el teléfono que se llama 'HTC Sync (3.2.20)'. Probablemente ya estará instalado en tu computador si sincronizas o conectar el cel a tu compu. Pero si no lo tienes debes bajarlo e instalarlo pues se requiere que se instalen los 'drivers' de comunicación de compu a cel. Por cierto mi plataforma es Windows 7 de 64 bits.
Una vez cumplidos los requisitos y teniendo buena carga en la batería de al menos 75% (idealmente debería estar al 100%), vas en el celular a 'Configuración'>'Energía'>deshabilitar 'Inicio Rápido' (quitar el check mark de la opción). Luego nuevamente en 'Configuración'>'Opción de desarrollo'> Habilitar 'Depuración USB'. Hecho esto debes apagar el celular y esperar al menos 5 segundos para asegurarse que todos los procesos fueron cerrados y el celular está bien apagado (suena raro pero así es).
¡Ahora empieza lo emocionante! Pero no hay que ponerse nervioso, el proceso es sencillo. Hay que encender/prender/iniciar el celular en modo de 'bootloader' (no se como se traduce ese término). Esto se logra apretando la tecla de bajar volumen y de encendido al mismo tiempo. Mantener ambas teclas apretadas hasta que se despliegue la pantalla del 'Bootloader'. Tarda varios segundos en eso. Verificar que diga 'Locked' o 'Relocked' en la línea de texto de arriba. Algo así como '**** Locked ****'. Si dice 'Unlocked' no sigas con esta guía, usa el procedimiento explicado en la '[Superguide]'.
En caso de tener un 'Bootloader' bloqueado o re-bloqueado y un GB de fábrica conectar, aun con la pantalla del 'Bootloader' abierta, el celular a la computadora mediante el cable USB. La compu debe reconocer el dispositivo recién conectado indicando que es un HTC Vivid. En Win / es sencillo por el mensaje que se despliega en un globito desde la barra de tareas.
Entonces te vas a la carpeta donde bajaste el nuevo ROM del cel, o sea el archivo 'htc_vivid_att_ruu_3.26.502.56_us.exe', y lo ejecutas. Seguir las instrucciones en pantalla, atento a ambas pantallas, tanto de la compu como del cel. Se deben aceptar la ejecución y condiciones en varios puntos, y confirmar que se quiere hacer la actualización.
Luego de varios minutos de proceso y varias barras de progreso que llegan al 100% (paciencia, paciencia, paciencia), y cuando el proceso finaliza, desconectar el celular del cable y reiniciarlo. Cuando inicie ya el ICS va estar instalado. ¡Felicidades!
Estos pasos de guía se basan en la guía en inglés del sitio web 'Android Authority' titulada 'Upgrade the at&t htc vivid to ice cream sandwich via leaked ruu'. No está de más echarle una ojeadita.
Recordar que el cel en donde practiqué este proceso es un PH39100, AT&T HTC Vivid que estaba abierto a cualquier SIM (unlocked phone), traía GB de fábrica, nunca se le instaló ROM alguno, el 'Bootloader' era el de fábrica y estaba bloqueado; y luego de la actualización el celular sigue aceptando cualquier chip SIM y el 'Bootloader' sigue bloqueado como de fábrica.
Espero que esta sencilla guía sea de ayuda para todos mis compas hispanoparlantes.
SIGLAS:
GB... Gingerbread.
ICS... Ice Cream Sandwich.
thanks for the help!!

Estos pasos de guía se basan en la guía en inglés del sitio web 'Android Authority' titulada 'Upgrade the at&t htc vivid to ice cream sandwich via leaked ruu'. No está de más echarle una ojeadita.
Recordar que el cel en donde practiqué este proceso es un PH39100, AT&T HTC Vivid que estaba abierto a cualquier SIM (unlocked phone), traía GB de fábrica, nunca se le instaló ROM alguno, el 'Bootloader' era el de fábrica y estaba bloqueado; y luego de la actualización el celular sigue aceptando cualquier chip SIM y el 'Bootloader' sigue bloqueado como de fábrica.
Espero que esta sencilla guía sea de ayuda para todos mis compas hispanoparlantes.
SIGLAS:
GB... Gingerbread.
ICS... Ice Cream Sandwich.

Thanks for the translation, mate, still to hard for me. I found a better simple way to do it just like i did.
To get the ICS update on a AT&T HTC VIVID with unlocked SIM ( not root ) just dial *#*#682#*#* and thats it !!!! (make sure u have full batery or be connected (charging)
a download will apear on the bar up the screen i think was like 344mb , its going to take like 15-20 min, then the screen goes black an appear a symbol in the middle and a status bar, just wait for it to finish, When its done your phone will restart like 4 times by itself, and vuala!!! on the next restart the phone just got back on like a normal turn on , after the at&t logos it will appear the Beats Audio logo and next youll see your home screen but with the new under bar and the phone will start asking you to do some app updates. When you finish the updates the phone willnsynchronize all contacts, mails, sms, etc. and thats it !! ENJOY ICS AND SENSE 3.6 ON YOUR HTC VIVID.
I hope this post will help other people like me outside the us with sim unlocked vivid using a different carrier to enjoy the update!!
CHEERS FROM MEXICO !!!

I forgot to mention that you dont need to backup anything, youre not going to loose anything that u have on your phone like : photos, music, documents, apps, notes, contacts, etc.
QHSUSB_DLOAD(Now "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008") - Motorola Iron Rock [XT626] !
I dont know if this is on the correct place, maybe not, if its not in correct, im sorry, im newbie around here/ No se si esto está en el lugar correcto, tal vez no, si no lo está, me disculpo, soy nuevo por acá.
Good morning everyone...
A couple of days ago I was asked to check an XT626 to see what it has, the only information they gave me is that the phone worked correctly except for an exaggerated slowness and constant reboots until, in one of these, it stopped working and When was turned on, it only showed the message "fastboot mode" in the upper part of the screen, with the rest of the screen completely black. When i take it, I wanted to see that error by myself, but didn't get any proof of life from the phone, when connected it to my PC in the hope that it would at least charge, I saw that it was detected as "QHSUSB_DLOAD", this sounded bad for me and start searching, then I discovered that it is possibly a HardBrick, the curious thing is that the phone was not exposed to any kind of "tinkering", in fact, with luck it was used to communicate between the owner And his partner.
Now, after spending an entire night searching about this problem, i get the drivers to make it get detected as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008(COMxx)", also i get stock firmware with .HEX and .MBN files, and QPST.
Now ... Is it correct to say that this problem is due to a Hardbrick? Is there a way to solve it without having to spend money in technical service? What could be the causes of this problem in a phone that was practically on factory status?
Thanks in advance.
Buenas a todos...
Hace un par de días me pidieron revisar un XT626 para "ver que tiene", la única información que me dieron es que el terminal funcionaba correctamente a excepción de una lentitud exagerada y constantes reinicios hasta que, en uno de estos, dejo de funcionar y al encenderlo solo mostraba en la parte superior de la pantalla el mensaje "fastboot mode" con el resto de la pantalla completamente en negro. Cuando me lo dieron, quise ver de primera mano dicho mensaje, pero no conseguí que el terminal diera ninguna señal de vida, al conectarlo a mi PC con la esperanza de que al menos cargue, me di cuenta que lo detectaba estando apagado pero bajo el nombre de "QHSUSB_DLOAD", esto me sonaba mal y buscando descubrí que posiblemente se trata de un brickeo, lo curioso es que dicho terminal no fue expuesto a ningún tipo de "manoseo", de hecho, con suerte era utilizado para comunicarse entre el dueño y su pareja.
Ahora bien... Es correcto decir que dicho problema se debe a un brickeo? Hay actualmente forma de solucionarlo sin tener que invertir dinero en servicio técnico? Cuales podrían ser las causas de este problema en un terminal que se encontraba prácticamente en su estado de fabrica?
Desde ya muchas gracias!

There can be many causes for the device to have these kinds of issues. It could be that the software or hardware got corrupted due to some kind of degradation, possibly faulty battery, being dropped, getting wet, overheating, etc..
If you've been reading this thread then you have the correct method to restore the device, now you just need to make sure that you have the correct compatible files for your model number to be flashed at the various flashing steps in these instructions. Flashing the wrong bootloader or any other partitions can be disastrous so make absolutely certain that what you flash at any time is compatible with your model number. You may have to adapt these instructions for your specific model, post in that thread or read all the way through it to see the various other tricks involved if it doesn't work the first time, you might find enough information to understand exactly which files you need and where to get them.
I DO NOT PROVIDE HELP IN PM, KEEP IT IN THE THREADS WHERE EVERYONE CAN SHARE
I do not know if someone can help me on my razer phone 2 I wanted to change the rom the problem was not that the process was successful the problem is that I wanted to put magisk but apparently I did the process wrong I did not follow the instructions and install a version that al It seems it was not shareable with my phone the problem is that this caused the phone to erase all the rom the serial all the only thing that remained was the twrp but it does not let me install or do anything whenever you try to do a process that fails not even With the pc in download or bootloader mode, I do not know if someone has any solution to be able to recover that phone (I already contacted razer and their solution was to send them the phone and pay to have it repaired, I know that it may take time and I have no budget to pay what they are going to charge)
Could you paste the error message or even a picture of it?
Might be useful to see the error.
Los errores son algo así, no encuentra los datos ni ningún tipo de partición como se ve en las imágenes y luego todos los errores que da al querer restaurar el celular o instalar una rom y en el bootloader lo único que Sucede es que si reconoce la computadora pero al realizar las acciones o comandos como querer flashear el recovery o el sistema se queda atascado y no ejecuta nada
Reformat all the partitions and then install your stock ROM zip.
The Zip can be obtained from your manufacturers website.

Vuelva a formatear todas las particiones y luego instale su archivo zip ROM.
El Zip se puede obtener en el sitio web de su fabricante.

I already did it but it does not leave exactly the same message in echo I tried to install the manufacturer's rm zip in that chapter and right after I wanted to format but nothing works it always goes without success
Ya lo hice pero no deja exactamente el mismo mensaje en echo Intenté instalar el zip del rm del fabricante en ese capítulo y justo después quise formatear pero nada funciona siempre sale sin éxito
