Bricked Wizard

sorry if this post seems to be a repeat , but i tried the search option and the results were not fruitful
a friend of mine , while trying to upgrade to a TNT ROM , didn't HardSPLed the device first , and successfully changed the ROM of the device , now it is stuck on the blue screen with SPL and IPL versions , and no response . for some reason , the device can go to bootloader mode , but it can not be reflashed , and it does not respond to a hard reset command.
please advise on what to do
regards

When it is in the bootloader mode, and connected via USB, is there a little USB icon in the bottom left? If so, simply flash your phones carrier ROM and all should be fine with it again. You can then apply HardSPL and flash to the TNT or any other ROM that you want to. Is your device a G3 or G4 by the way? What are the numbers after IPL and SPL?

well my friend says that the USB icon is visible there , and the device was indeed a G4. the thing is , what exactly should he do , in order to flash the ROM , since non of imate roms work for it. should he use any special software?
i'll greatly appreciate your help

Is he using Vista or XP?

he is using Windows XP , could it be the PC OS that caused interference?

Well, only if it is Vista does it really matter. He needs to get ahold of an original carrier ROM, such as the O2, or T-Mobile one and flash it to his phone, then HardSPL it, then upgrade to 6 or 6.1.

Download and flash Wizard_love Rom,it might do the trick,then HardSPL and upgrade to any wm6 or 6.1 rom.
What exact error it gives while flashing imate official rom ?

well the wizard has been an imate ,and it was flashed with an Original imate ROM already , but no success , any other suggestions?
thanks again

To Flash a ROM you'll most likley need Hard SPL
Follow the "Getting Started" Link in my Sig.
If you cannot get WM to boot, you'll need to re-flash your orginal carriers ROM.

You shouldn't be using cmonex's SD method the first time round. It is for upgrading only.
I have downloaded the package from point 2 (you should follow the USB method in post 3, NOT the SD set) and have upload it onto my site, please let me know when you are done with it.

ok, thanks DaveShaw, i have downloaded those files. the method in step 2 involves copying the jump progs to the device memory, which i do not have access to as it will not start. can i just copy to the sd card? thats why i was trying to flash a standard rom. i need a solution that will work just from the card. will the RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.rar load using what i have on my phone now? i assume that the spl gets replaced when i upgrade to 6.1 with htc ruu. i can try anything as i have nothing to lose now (do i?)

Enter your bootloader and try flashing any ROM supplied by your carrier to get into Windows Mobile.
What screen do you get stuck on? If it is the tri color screen check out the link in my signature.

Hi again, i am not actually 'stuck' on the screen as i can get into the loader, its just that i get the message saying that the (newer) rom will not load. i am extending my (c)rapidshare as free will not let me down load the 'standard' rom, then i will try that (just had to re-initialise my paypal and the passwords are on eWallet the phone, so ive reloaded the eWallet on my pc and ....so it goes on zzzzzzzzzz its funny how these things spiral down - not).
is there any way to update the spl only from the sd card?

woo hoo, yippeeeeeeeeeeeeee. the kaiser lives. back to standard 6.0 rom. cheers, i owe you a beer (or 2) if you are ever in abu dhabi, let me know ;-)
i can reload all from sprite backup (only from yesterday) to get me going again
but..... next will try to replace spl and then load 6.1. not sure why HTC standard would not let me update, i thought the ruu would update any htc phone
HardSPL 3.29 is first (yes?) then will try Kaiser_HTC_ASIA_HK_WWE_3.34.721.2 which sounds good. one more thing, my phone is not locked so do i need to do the 'SIM and CID-Unlock'

That's right, flash the HardSPL 3.29 first (SIM unlock is optional, CID unlock isn't needed - Hard SPL takes care of that - but it comes as part of the SIM unlock) then flash a WM6.1 ROM.

Only if it's from the same region the RUU was intended for eg the European TyTN II's won't accept the latest Hong Kong WWE ROM by default because of this so as already suggested hardSPL works around this. My WM 6.0 UK original TyTN II upgraded to WM 6.1 OK but that was using the HTC UK provided ROM update. That updated everything required including the SPL and Radio to the required HTC versions. I'm back on the original WM 6.0 version though due to reliability issues with 6.1 and poor GPS performance.

Tmobile Compact iv Rom Upgrade

Hi folks, I have just got a T-Mobile Compact iv after handling a few HTC Touch Diamonds through my company and loving it in comparison with my old Vario 2 (HTC TyTN 1)
As I am on Contract with T-Mobile I have gone for the Compact iv version as it was free to me however Once receiving it I noticed the rom including the TouchFlow is a really really old version compared to what's on the Touch Dimaonds.
I have spoken to T-Mobile and they told me they can't supply a newer version but they have given me full permission to use the one on the HTC Website for the Touch Dimaond and if anything was to go wrong they will still support me.
I have a serial from one of the Diamonds we have here in the company in order to download the rom for my compact but I thought I would check here first as HTC refuse to give me any information as its a T-Mobile branded phone that the rom for the Touch Dimaond is perfectly fine for the UK Compact iv?
Thanks in advance for any information.
Regards,
Max

A Touch Diamond ROM will work fine on a Compact IV. It´s a T-Mobile branded HTC Touch Diamond with a different cover. Hardware specs are all the same. So there's no reason why it wouldn't work. Just know what you're doing when flashing it. It could go wrong.

Thanks for the reply. I have flashed a few phones including HTC's and Nokias so I am not worried about flashing it, its part of my job being in IT I just wanted to ensure that the rom would work correctly encase there were any slight differences in hardware but I have got an HTC Branded Serial code so I will go ahead and download the rom upgrade
Thanks,
Max

Rom's could be found here to. They are all orignal roms.

See I would do that but as T-Mobile would normally no longer support you if you change roms and they have told me they will but as long as its downloaded from the HTC website I think I am going to be safe this time.
I wouldn't mind trying the 6.5 roms I am very intrested but I think I will wait until I have a spare phone

HELP!! Won't run
:-( I tried to use the rom update but it says invalid Vendor ID then restarts my phone. It actually checking and finding I am running T-Mobile. Is there anyway around that?
Regards,

Max, have a read of the wiki and you'll see there are a few things you need to do prior to flashing a new one. The most important one is installing HardSPL - this removes the invalid vendor id probs. Like I say, read the wiki and all will be clear.... if it isn't clear - don't risk it!

Follow this tutorial and it should work. You could take a look here to.

Hi, I had just read all the instructions downloaded and installed the HardSPL from the second link you provided and Installed the orginal version (not the latest on that link as its what it said to try first)
I flashed it ok came back on but the screen is jurky and very slow when it finally finished coming back on it went straight to the customization screen which is normal for a flash but took forever (alot longer than I have seen before) once complete I then re-connected it back up and went to run the HTC Rom upgrade and still says invalid Vendor ID.
Am I undesrtanding this wrong and I need to copy certain files out of the HTC Upgrade and use them along side the files I downloaded with the HardSPL and use a mixture of files to get it working.
Regards.

Did you successfuly flash the HardSPL into your device? You can check this by doing this:
To confirm is Hard-SPL is on your device, manually enter Bootloader by pressing the Volume Down and performing a soft reset at the same time. If successful you will see the tri-colour screen and the following will be displayed
Hard SPL 1.40.Olinex
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
I've checked what mine said, and this is what I've got back.
DIAM200 64M
SPL-1.93.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
So I guess you need a different HardSPL. Can someone confirm this for me? Checked my own MDA Compact IV map on my laptop and saw to files that I've used for flashing the HardSPL. Used Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex.zip and RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition.zip. Needed to overwrite RUU_Signed.nbh in the map for Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex with the one out of the map from RUU_Signed_1_93OliNex_HSPL_UnsignedEdition. This worked for me then. Added the files for you. So maybe this works for you.

I get:
DIAM200 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
Have I done it with the wrong version now then?
I have tried using the files you have supplied and that worked as all the other flash things fail now so let me give it a go now that I have completed with your files.

Max

I guess it had to work. Don't understand why it didn't. Because the HardSPL flash worked for you I don't understand why you stil had the invalid Vendor ID message. I hope my version will work for you.

Well after I did your flash and it finally came back on and finished the customization, the TouchFlo no longer appeared, just got a blank home screen and stayed like that. I have started the HTC Rom upgrade and it is actually flashing this time,
at 19% as I am writing this.
So I will post my results when it has finished.

I really don't have a clue. So the phone is working now with a original HTC Touch Diamond ROM? Very strange that it gave problems. When I flashed a phone (MDA Touch) for the first time it worked for me. When I flashed my MDA Compact IV I didn't have any problems.

Right,
I didn't use the HTC Rom as the last flash it was the one listed a few posts back and it reports:
Rom: 2.03.405.2 WWE
Radio: 1.09.25.23
However I have the following problems and I am not sure they are related:
1: Sometimes on call its crackling
2: Loud speaker is awful and very distorted
3: Internet not working on all programs (just phoned t-mobile and requested internet settings to be resent see if that works)
4: My hang up button doesn't seem to be working once the screen has gone off.
5: Signal seems to be very week.
Any ideas anyone?
Regards,
Max

Ok I have just spoken to T-mobile and they reckon if I phone HTC they will supply me back with the T-mobile Rom.
But until then as they are shut I might experiment with further flashes to see if I can get it working better because I do want the latest software runs so much smoother but the problems I am currently having I can't live with.
Max.

Ok, hmm I have in theory 'downgraded' the rom now on version
1.93.405.1 WWE downloaded directly from the HTC website radio version 1.00.25.05 and I still have the same problems:
crackling or fuzzing on calls,
the loudspeaker is a bit better quality but still a bit distorted (even at lowest volume)
internet works but for some reason, activesync wont work with our exchange server, msn mess doesnt work, you tube app.
still feels quite warm but thats prob all the flashing I am doing.
The latest HTC rom from their website still gets to 100% then fails and leaves no os on my phone just the bootloader.
One problem fixed the hang up key now works fine.
So I guess its just experimenting with the radio now and get a better signal.

It seems HardSPL 1.40oli and this 2.32 rom don't work very well.Very sluggish and phone can't turn ON even after 2 Hard resets.
What is your experience???

Do not install if hard spl
I installed the ROM upgrade from HTC, it ****ed up my device real bad: phone module not working, device boot up in aprox 1 min, after 3 mins Touch Flo not started, it restarts by itself.
I did hard reset and nothing happens.
I,m reinstalling jademan superrom!
I hope that works!

Could anyone check, if the gps-support has been improved?

Exactly same symptoms. I went to Stock SPL 1.40 and reflashing the new rom now. Hope it works better

It is annoying that hardspl doesnt work with this upgrade of jade.. can't built a rom now with the new oem. It's all newer than the iolite versions, but still doesnt include Footprint

Any changes in Manila? New tabs? Calendar? Stocks? Changes in the contacts?

Hi
What is the Radio version in this new ROM?
I have just applied the version from here and if this contains the old Radio then I can hold off for now until hopefully a compliant Hard-SPL is made, I can live without Opera being perfect.

Hi all,
I'm a new owner of a Jade since april 11. I'm french so excuse me for my english ^^'
I installed this new rom, and i get exactly the same problems as Lexx2009 and Lagoskon. I tryed to install the stock 1.40 rom but it doesnt work. I can synchronize the phone but i cannot use customRUU or hard spl anymore, it says the Jade isn't plugged with the usb cable ..
Please can anyone tell me what i have to do to get a rom whith works please

Install a different rom from this forum-> Shut down your jade, unplug it. Hold down "volume down button" and ""power on button" to get in to boot mode. now start to flash another rom.
when finished you can install stock spl and then install this new rom

Stupid (or not so stupid) question,
If we flash original SPL to instal this ROM, and SPL is upgraded by this ROM to 2.32,.... and HardSPL does not work with this new 2.23 SPL,.....
THEN, IT SEEMS THAT FOLLOWING THESE STEPS WILL ONLY MAKE US SLAVES OF THIS NEW & OFFICIAL HTC ROM!!!! i.e. No possibility of other ROMs flashing until new HardSPL is developed,...
Please, somebody to confirm this statement?
Thanks,

that's right.. but i think it's in one of the drivers. using the old drivers and the new oem/sys makes it possible to run it with the current hardspl.

Help with upgrade to WM6.5

Hi all,
please if someone can help me solve problem.
I got few days ago Touch Diamond2. It has WM6.1 ROM on it. I tried to upgrade with official ROM from htc.com to wm6.5 but it hangs on 18% with error "communication error". Phone turned on in recovery mode. After that i tried flashing with custom roms but no luck again. It hangs on HTC screen when booting and nothing happens. I flashed it back with shipped 6.1 ROM from HTCpedia and it started normal.
When i start it in boot load mode it states 1.33 Olinex SPL. Do i need to put original hardSPL before upgrading to official ROM or there is something else i am missing?
Tnx in advance

updating your Hard-Spl to HSPL 1.83 first ! in order to flash WM 6.5 rom or custom rom

Hi and tnx for quick answer.
Just to confirm. I need to update even if I want to flash official WM6.5 rom from htc.com?

I think it could, try it !

Doesn't the official WM6.5 ROM update include an embedded SPL though? Although if flashing from official ROM to custom ROM or vice versa you'd definitely need to update HSPL.

Please Read Carefully the instruction for installing HSPL 1.83 or better to upgrade it to 2.51.OliNex.Make Sure U Have a internet connection on as hspl needs internet to install.
