Powerfailure during romflash: stuck in colorscreen HELP

Hello,
Have of course searched 1st but could only find old solutions for older type phones.
During flashing of a rom the power fell out but I did not notice because its daytime After a while me laptop give out during the flashingprocess.
the result: stuck on the tricolorscreen. it says: romload process failed.
have tried to flash again, to hard reboot but does not work.
PLEASE help me out here....
cheers, flummie

Start the phone pressing the down volume key and you will get to bootloader. After that you can flash again

probably he also needs to put the .nbh file of the rom in the sdcard so he can flash directly.

no, does not work because you cant connect through activesync first..
would this work: use the methode of flashing through the flashcard? If i use an other phone the put the rom on the flashcard, then put it back in blackcome and flash????

Don't have to worry about ActiveSync - just put in bootloader mode (Power Button + Volume Down) and start BlackstoneCustomRUU.exe.

yep should work, rename the firmware to BLACIMG.NBH otherwise it will come up with missing rom. stick in the hd and hold down and then press the power button for a fraction of a second then follow the onscreen instructions.
if you get rom not found make sure BLACIMG.NBH is exact inc caps. but its a lot faster flashing this way anyway.

Rom flash saying "loading..."

i'm trying to insall a new rom valkyrie v1.6... i've put it on my memory card root and changed it to kovsimg.nbh got the three colours, now all it says is "Loading..."
any ideas?

X1 rescue! Bricked?
I flashed stock SPL over HSPL before flashing back the stock ROM.
X1 will shows the SPL version following by "Loading..." on the LCD whenever power up! (with memory card inside the phone)
My SPL is 0.72.
The phone should be in recovery mode now without valid ROM/OS in it.
I copy an official UK ROM (R2AA010) into the micro SD card and rename it to kovsimg.nbh,
remove the battery for a few sec, insert the SD card with image file and then hold VOL Down button and power button to boot into Flash mode.
Press Power button to begin flashing process.
(Like normal flashing to other ROM after HSPL mod)
The phone should read the ROM image data and reflash back x1.
If this method not working, try to hold Power+VOL Down and press the RESET at the same time until the phone turn into "Rainbow" screen then try to flash again.
This "Rescue method" works for my set but I still advice that MUST flash stock ROM then only follow with SPL!

If your xperia is stuck in a "boot loop", which I think is what you're describing (as I remember mine always said it was loading the rom, each time you rebooted) then there's a PC application called mtty. it gives a command line interface to the phone when connected by USB.
I don't remember what commands are needed, but a search of the forums should find them. You need to set it to boot properly. Sorry I can't be more helpful, it was last year at some point that I needed this last.

Help 1 More Time Please No Options Are Working

Heres whats Happening
I Got Rc29 on my phone
I Think i rooted correctly
I have Recovery.img and update.zip(hardspl)
on my sd card
Im stuck here where the Arrows Pointing
"What To Do Now That You Have Root
Now that you have root, you will want to apply "Hard SPL" to your phone. HardSPL is what will allow you to apply flash images from other regions (like UK on US phones, and vice versa), create full backups of your phone, install the latest build from the Android source, and usually resurrect your phone if it is "bricked". You have already downloaded the file to your SD card, so now you can apply it.
1.Power off your phone.
2.Start up in recovery mode by --->(holding home and pressing power)<---.
3.You will now enter recovery mode. You should see an exclamation.
4.If you do not see a menu on screen, press Alt-L to show the menu.
5.Press Alt-S to apply the update from the SD card.
6.After the update is complete, hold Home and press Back to restart."
When im at step 2 i do as told but when attempting It turns on
with the Tmobile g1 screen then goes black then g1 again then turns on like normal it doesnt enter recovery mode
so can i update(hardspl) with the Back+Power button instead the recovery or no?
Whats wrong i dont understands what im doing wrong
please just like help me out

You need to reformat your post. You mashed together other threads instructions with your own post without seperating or quoting them. Its difficult to read.

Is this better

You need to hold down home+power until at least the fone vibrates. Some say hold it down longer which is fine. Your phone should then boot into a recovery console that will allow u to apply the update.zip file you placed on the root of your SD (this file should be the hard/engineering SPL). Post if u still have probs.

This is the SECOND thread he has made about this. Apparently the first one wasn't good enough for him anymore.

2. Make sure X1 is off
3.-4. You can skip this if X1 is really off
5. Press on the "down volume" (the button you press to decrease volume level) and DO NOT LET GO
6. WHILE STILL PRESSING the volume down key, press the power button AND DO NOT LET GO OF BOTH KEYS until the tricolor screen appears

it still doesnt work sir,
pinoy here
are there requirements in entering bootloader?

please help me, is it required to have my memory card formatted? and my phone is fresh (hard reset)?

If you just want to update your phone, you really don't need to use SEUS. Just flash the WWE R3A stock ROM (it's in the stickied thread in the ROMs section) using the RUU (activesync) method

but in this case it think it's very important to say that it's only that simple if he want's to flash a stock-rom!!!
(meaning "an original rom by SE")
@dlegendkiller:
if you ever want to flash a custom-rom then first read about flashing hard-spl and then do it before flashing custom-roms. if not, you can get into serious trouble. (it's easy and save if you follow the instructions)

honestly, i think you're either doing something wrong here OR your volume-button is broken. regardless of your sd-card you should be able to enter bootloader-mode (the tri-color screen).
are you really doing it this way? to test do it without the usb-cable attached:
- turn your phone off completely
- press your volume-down-button and keep pressing it
- now press the power-button and also keep pressing it
you'll know when to release the buttons yourself.

anyway, can i get some advantages in updating my rom? i really am scared to install custom roms, i might break the phone
and i want to install manila hd, i am wondering why i cant install it
its about "system permissions etc etc"
does it require custom rom?

how to recover from the flashed ROM, unable to reboot orstart

Flasehed this ROM: 23563 V2 FULL WWE-ITA using Jump SPL 1.93 which went fine but later after installing the apps asked to reboot.
Once clicked on the reboot unable to get the phone back.
Does anyone have any ides on this. on how we can recover this. Or Flash another ROM from this state.

Moved as not ROM Dev.
By unable to put back on i imagine you can't power on device? Remove battery and try after an hour or so.
If not then maybe the end of the road.

why did you use jumpSPL to flash a complete ROM???????????
its written everywhere that jumpSPL is only meant to flash HardSPL...and HardSPL is needed before you can flash any ROM. i mean why???????!!!!!
follow the advice the chef gave you in the thread for the ROM because i noticed you posted your question there as well in addition to starting a new thread here.

Try flashing Stock rom via 2GB or smaller SD Card. Check the wiki for Stock OEM Roms from your BRANDED Device.

Flashing Via MicroSD Card
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the Kaiser Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your computer
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to KAISIMG.nbh
4. Copy the KAISIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
6. Hold in the Power and Camera buttons, then press the reset button with the stylus for about 3 seconds until the BootLoader screen appears
7. You will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
8. A message will then pop up asking you to press the Power button to start the update
9. Press power button to start flashing
10. Once phone finishes flashing and says Update Complete, reset with the stylus
11. When it gets to the screen where it configures the stylus, HARD RESET
(press left and right softkey buttons on the front and hold in reset with stylus until message appears)
12. When prompted, Press "Send Button" (Green Call Button on Front) to Clear Data
13. When prompted, Press "Send Button" (Green Call Button on Front) to Restart Phone

Thanks for your advise, i have recovered my phone, i went into boot loader screen then flashed the original HTC ROM which is "TyTN II_AUS Hutch_WM6.1_Upgrade_20080602" which went through fine and ALL IZ WELL so far...
The reason i used the Jump SPL is that when i flashed normally, i was not able to get the ROM upgrade, it was throwing error message UPDATE error...
so
1. checked some info and Ran Jump SPL 1.93
2. Right click on the Active Sync then unchecked the USB connection
3. Connected back and ran the KaiserCustomRUU.exe
which went fine but anyhow learn lesson...
Thanks once again for everyone...
