Ok this morning it worked.. now i have the same thing again.. i reboot my phone, and it gets stuck in bootloader again.. help?

thanks
ps: without sd-card it is now in bootloader screen saying 'serial'
SPL: 0.72.01 oliNex

*bump* problem occured again..

I have exactly the same problem except mine happened when I tried to restore stockSPL since some cracks appeared in the housing and I'm sending it to service.Any help greatly appreciated!

Hello,
I had the same problem and I solved it.
You have to downgrade bootloader to original version (ruusigned_072stockspl).
Run bootloader and connect USB cable to PC (the "serial" should change to "USB" on screen). Download ruusigned_072stockspl.zip, unzip. Download X1_HardSPL, run it but don't click "next" button! Replace RUU_Signed.NBH from ruusigned_072stockspl.zip to X1_HardSPL folder. Then You can finish installation. Now You have to do Hard Reset and that's all.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!! pc rebooted during flash!

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 ****

Flash Stop at 1% trying to go back to Stock ROM

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.

Stuck in bootloader

Alright, so I was trying to install a new ROM on my phone.
But Hard SPL didn't work, so I attempted to do it without but now the phone is stuck on the tri-color screen. Each time I boot it shows me that, even without an SD card in the slot.
Help!
Edit: I just downloaded an original R3A and it appears to be isntalling. *fingers crossed*
when you hard-spl'd you did make sure your phone was on, synced (or at least connected) to activesync or WMDC right?
and remember you have to press yes on the phone after as well!
there is no need to hard-spl again after that
hope this helps!

Try to reflash the rom you was flashing in the first place.
Mayb it is locked, cause it needs a serten file from that rom.
Have you tried to hard reset it?
Fully charged it
And try to enter the bootloader to flash again?

try agent47´s task29 that might help
Im trying atm...so far its been 10mins and its stucked at 0%....i cant flash anything =(
Edit... it Gave me update Error 262
are you able to enter the bootloader/tricolour screen ? if so remove sd card.
now on your PC use "X1_RUU_ROM_UpdateUtility" with any ROM image (remember to rename rom img to ruu_signed.nbh), follow steps on ROMUpdateUtility, you will be asked to connect phone (bootloader screen) on 2nd step.
I hope it helps
I Hope this help you!
In one occasion I suffered a similar problem and the issue was that the Memory Card was damaged, and when the Phone Start and tried to read this it "stuck" reading this.
Try to start the phone without the memory to see if this work.
Regards.

Please provide better details.
What does your Bootloader screen show for SPL? (Soft reset phone and hold Volume Down before boot starts until you get to tri-colored screen)
1.33.00 or 1.83.Olinex, or?

Where it says SPL - 1.33.0000, if you successfully HSPL, it will say 1.83.Olinex.
I suspect you didn't verify your SPL flashed correctly before you attempted to flash the ROM? If so, this is not good.
Hard reset (Reboot phone and hold both Volume Keys before device starts to boot, and continue holding them untill you get to the white screen, then follow the prompts.)
If you can get back to stock with a hard reset, I suggest you go here and do some reading.
If it gets stuck at the same screen, you will need to find your stock ROM. You can hopefully find it from HTC's site with your Serial Number.
Once you get your stock ROM, connect your phone to your PC and go to Bootloader. Once it displays 'USB' instead of Serial, run the .exe for your stock ROM.
i tried to dl stock ROM from HTC.com, but it says:
Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
im not sure if im on the right side, but there are only 4 options...
i downloaded original update, but from other side and while phone was connected to PC with Red green blue screen i opened the RUU everything went good until status bar (on PC and phone appeared status bar with % as it started installing, but then error) :/
So hard reset was unsuccessful?
Try flashing from SD card.
Right click on the Stock ROM and Extract to a folder.
Place the ruu_signed.nbh file renamed to TOPAIMG.nbh on the root of your SD card and then enter bootloader.
This will initiate the flash and hopefully it won't get stuck at 0%
You can also do this with the .nbh file from hspl.
Perhaps you should try to do HSPL .nbh first, because your OS is locked, it will ONLY accept the exact replacement ROM.
Also, I would suggest taking some time to read and learn about this stuff before diving in head first.
The link I provided previously is very thorough.
Take a look at the MTTY thread after you read about flashing and HSPL.
in bootloader it flash for 0,1 sec and says "Unable to load imagefile" or sth like that

Make sure it is 'TOPAIMG.nbh' exactly without quotes.
What was the error you received when you attempted from your PC?
its exactly like that,
it can be any ROM? becouse i have rom with nbh + exe files and with nbh only

No, unless you get HSPL to flash first.
If you successfully installed a ROM, it would not boot up because your OS is still locked.
Use this .nbh which is for HSPL 1.83. If you can get this to flash, do the same with HSPL 2.51, then you can flash to any ROM.
i think im lost.
can you please explain me, what should i copy to my SD card and what to do (in oredr)
thanks

Download the SPL 1.83.zip and extract the .nbh file.
Rename it to TOPAIMG.nbh and place on SD card
Enter bootloader mode and pray.
With luck, it will complete to 100%
Then you go back to bootloader and VERIFY your SPL says 1.83.Olinex. (This is the step you skipped before you attempted to flash a ROM, and you have bricked your device as a result)
Without luck, it gets stuck at 0%
Then you need to read up on MTTY to recover your device.
If you think you have your EXACT stock ROM, you can do the same with the .nbh file you extract from that, as previously instructed and get back to stock first before worrying about HSPL.
Basically HSPL unlocks your OS to be able to accept updates. Without it, you can only update from the stock image.
So your choices are, to try to HSPL, or try to get back to stock. Both can be done the same way, in bootloader using respective .nbh file.
I think you are looking to shortcut this stuff and it will only lead you to headaches, unless you take some time to read and learn.
Now, you never did answer;
Did you attempt a hard reset?
What was the error you received when you ran the RUU from your PC?
so i renamed that file, put it on card, card to phone, pushed VolDown and turned on. It flashed with loading and then again "No image file" and back to boot screen
i did few hard resets
error when i tried that "official ROM" was that: Error 294: Invalid render ID
This update cannot be aplied on this device
i try older ROM
Alight, your 294 error indicates its the wrong ROM for your device.
No Image File indicates that bootloader isn't recognizing the file.
Make sure your SD card is formatted to Fat32, you may want to try a 2-4gb card just to be sure. Sometimes larger cards get errors.
Since you can't find your stock ROM, you need to get the HSPL.nbh to load first.
If you can get the 1.83.Olinex to flash, continue the same process for HSPL 2.51 .nbh file.
so i did everything dled you file, formated card, put your file on card renamed turned on phone and now its stucked on loading (if i made something wrong tell me) couse im not sure
i connected phone with pc and try to instal Topaz-HardSPL_V5_00R5_183HSPL but its stucked on 0%

Well, we got it to recognize the image which is good.
Sounds like you did everything correctly, it just doesn't always work.
I think you have 3 options here;
1. Try to find your stock ROM and flash either from PC in bootloader or from SD card.
2. Read about MTTY and how to use it to flash to your phone and recover, but I still think you need your stock ROM to do this.
3. Warranty return- just tell em it froze, don't mention what you have done to it.
I have one other thing we can attempt here.
Download the enclosed file and unzip it to your PC.
Connect phone to PC and go into bootloader, then run Task29.exe.
With any luck this will force it to load HSPL.
Let me know what happens.
i tried ROMUpdateUtility, task29everything seems to work, but alwways stucks on 0%...
úroblem is, that my phone isnt originaly mine, i bought it from one guy, (couldnt be problem that it is MDA Compact V?)
