So, you've decided that your shiny new toy isn't very well setup by default. You flashed a ROM and lo and behold, you missed some instruction somewhere and now you think it's bricked.
Here's the good news:
It's not bricked!!
Bricked means that it's dead and it's in no way or shape recoverable.
There is still a chance. (As long as you didn't try to hardSPL with another Device's SPL...)
All you have to do is:
For the WING:
Hold the Camera button and WHILE holding it, soft reset the device (that means press the little hole above the memory card with the stylus.) That will bring you to the bootloader. Now download the appropiate RUU and run that program. A few minutes later and your new shiny toy is back to it's crappy OEM but working self!
I'll put in links for those who can't find them...
Here's tmobile's ROM.
WOW! That´s all??
Ok - then provide us a link to a XDA Terra RUU!!!!!!
hahahaha. Thanks for this help. Maby for some people it is usefull - but written 1000 times before.

I used the hardSPL from this thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358225
It worked successfully and I was able to restart into WM6. Then I tried loading the TouchIT 4.4 and it installed cleanly with no errors. But when I went to restart it, my Wing just sits there at the CanonYang boot screen and never changes.
I tried using the steps here to restore the tmo default rom, but it after 1% on the progress bar, the screen goes blank and the CanonYang screen comes back. Is there anything I can do?
edit: I can get to the bootloader screen with the color bars. I'm not sure if this additional info will be of any help.

SPL 4.70.yang!!! your device is HARD-SPL!!
So going back to stockrom--> delete the SPL.nbh from EVERY RUU you are running.
Then it shouldn´t stop......
Big Thanks papa! That did the trick. My Wing is happy once again and running Open Touch. But I still want to give TouchIt another try.
And what if i cant find stock RUU mine came with some arabic keyboard and spl was 1.08 , thanks to Oli he didnt mention that SPL should be 4 or higher , so device is bricked since first Olis release and no way to find this arabic stock RUU.
Any Help ?????
Hitec
If the device had an spl of 1.08 prior to HardSPLing it, then you'll have to bring the device to your nearest repair center. There isn't a way around that. Oli doesn't know everything and that's the risk we take when we try new and experimental things that people create but have no way of testing. But, we live and learn. If it wasn't for that issue, you could always cook your own ROM and if the HardSPL was working, you could've easily flashed any ROM. But the keyboard wouldn't been wrong until you could find someone who had the correct keyboard and you extracted the ROM from it and cooked that keyboard driver into your ROM.
Oh noooo!!
Hi ivanmmj,
I used your guide to flashing my HTC P4350 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358615.
It was in French and I wanted it in English. So I downloaded one of the official HTC ROMs "HTC_P4350_WWE_4.17.405.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe" assuming this was the English one because all the others couldn't have been.
I copied the "RUU_signed.nbh" from the above HTC ROM and put it into the RUU folder as instructed by yourguide (I didn't copy the SPL.nbh file). I then ran the herald-uspl.exe and everything went fine until the RUU utility stopped with the error "invalid vender ID".
The RUU exited without completing, now all I get when the device boots is the screen giving my IPL (1.08.001) and SPL (1.08.001). How do I flash another ROM from this state? I can't do it the "normal" way because ActiveSync can't see the device. When I try to use the RUU tool that comes with your tool, the progress bar shows then it says the tool can't be used with my device.
Someone please help!

Oh wow. I'm so sorry. I think I may have forgotten to put up a warning for people that have an SPL lower than 4.0. Was your SPL lower than 4.0? If it was, you cannot use the USPL OR the HardSPL and they end up writing part of the ROM over your current SPL and brick the device. This, unfortunately, needs to be fixed by your local repair center. I'll talk to the Mods about unlocking that thread so that I can update it.

For those who have flashed the Beta HTC Europe WM6.5 ROM, you'll stuck with an ugly 'For Test Only, Not For Sale' splash Screen.

Oh you're awesome! I was hoping someone had an HTC branded splash screen ready to go. Not digging T-Mobile pink at all.
BTW - do we have a thread started on custom power-on splash screens for the Rhodium? Maybe a how-to-make on the NBH file for the Rhodium? Is it similar to the Kaiser or other devices?
God bless you

Make sure you have HardSPL installed to your phone prior to flashing the splashscreen.
If you already have, you can also put your device in bootloader mode, plug the device to your PC via the USB. Wait until the on-screen sign change from 'Serial' to 'uSB' and run the RUU.exe.
Thanks SJ.
I just flashed in the stock HTC splash screen. However, I still get the screen (tMobile) where all the pink words come together to form the pink square (stick together logo). Is there a download out there to replace this?
Also, on the initial screen, where it shows the red lettering in the bottom right hand corner, can this be taken off somehow?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
Sorry if I shouldn't be writing a new thread about this, but I couldn't find a thread about bad flashes...
I'm a newbie with this, and I think I just bricked my phone after only my second flash I have a Touch Pro 2 (T-Mobile), and I was able to successfully install HardSPL. I even flashed the EnergyROM LEO with no problems. After a few days of playing around, I tried to flash the AthineOS v2.0 ROM, and now my phone won't boot up... it gets stuck in the Touch Pro 2 black screen with the red lettered version numbers at the bottom. I tried rebooting and pulling the battery out, but I have had no success in being able to boot it back up.
Any ideas on how I can fix this? This sucks I've only had the thing for less than a month...

hi if you have done the hardspl then try this
to enter Bootloader
Remove the back cover from the phone.
Hold the Volume Down button.
Use the stylus to press the reset hole.
Or if the device was powered off, press the power button whilst holding down the Volume Down button.
you should see serial at the bottom of the three color screen then plug in the usb cable the serial should change to USB then just flash another rom.
i hope this helps you.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! That worked! That's a really cool recovery feature from HardSPL... you guys really know what you're doing This is such a huge relief...

idd, this is not ROM related, its just unlucky like hell. See the phone as a PC, where blocks need be written. If a block fails or is corrupt, you get these jokes. Its like a BSOD on a Windows PC.
I gotta admit it is great knowing that once you've done a hardspl you are safe as houses as even if you flashed the most currupted ROM, the bootloader will always allow a reflash.
This is way more stable and safe than any other experience I've had of phone flashing.

Funny that, your latest ROM was the only one I had problems with - the same problems as the original poster, in fact. I flashed a different ROM fine, re-downloaded your 2.0 and flashed it again, same problem. Hanging on the boot screen.

Probably I think I was just unlucky. My fear (while I was panicking) was that your ROM is European based, and since mine came from T-Mobile, it didn't mesh well. I also didn't unlock my phone so that could be also be a problem...

no one have told me that on my thread... only here i found this issue.. and finally how pass the problem?
I had to re-flash a different ROM.
I'm wondering if it's related to the radio version...
what is your version of radio
can't you flash the latest 23060?
i use radio 3.36
I've used 4.49.25.05 and have just got the same result on 4.49.25.17
I'll try flashing 3.44.25.27 (the oldest in the radio thread) and re-flashing your ROM.
Alas, no luck with that one either.
I have no idea why it doesn't seem to work on my Rhodium :/
I'm sorry if I'm hijacking this thread but it's the only one I've found that's even close to having the same issue I have, though I'm still using the stock rom/os.
I was installing winmo msn messenger. It installed fine and reset my tp2 fine. It goes thru the tp2 splash screen, the verizon splash screen and the winmo splash screen. Then it shows owner information and this is where it gets screwed up. Owner info will stay up forever if I dont touch the screen. After touching the screen the only thing left will be the top bar and the rest of the screen stays black. The only things on the top bar are the signal icon (which always has an x), the wifi icon (which seems to be connected fine lol) and either owner info will still be in the upper left or the start menu will be there. Hitting the screen only causes my tp2 to beep.
Nothing I know how to do (which is basically just hard and soft resetting it) works. Verizon can't fix it (didnt think they would be able to) and I can find no drivers (possibly cause I'm still a noob with winmo) to resolve my issue. I'm not even sure how I'd get them on as it wont even sync up to my computer and my computer cannot find its hd. If I could get a rom for the verizon one I think I can figure it out from there with no issues...but htc website sends me to verizon website for support and vice versa. The htc wiki is the closest I've gotten to an answer...but no rom to download. The only OEM roms I can find anywhere aren't for this phone, unless one of those will work? You guys are the experts.
Does anyone know what I can try? Verizon wants me to return it but cannot tell me when I'll get my new one as they are out of stock...again. Please help lol! Thanks for any and all help.

Good Morning all,
Hope everyone is well. I realise that I am probably repeating a post somewhere and apologise profusely for that.
However my request is quite urgent. I have my phone flashed with Dutty's 4.1 using the step by step guide to update radio and ROM etc etc.
My touchscreen has now started playing silly buggars and as such tomorrow it gets picked up by UPS UK to disappear off to be looked at. Obviously I do not think they will take it to well if it still has duttys on there
So just so I make sure I get eveything right.... can someone just drop me a link to the correct files for a stock flash back to the way things should be.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you

To add an update, the boot loader screen shows:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.56.OliNex
Micro-Blackstone (LED) v6
Thought this might help in finding out how much work to stock?
I Think u need the original rom... or a htc one from the website?? ... can it not be downloaded from the htc website?? i may be wrong
I do but also need to make sure I do an original spl and radio as well
first off go to htc.com and download the romupgrade thats on that side (ive non is on the side check the wiki for youre countryrom)
then flash that one and se ive radio comes with it
ive not flash radio 13.**.**.**
then from the hard spl thread there a tut how t make youre spl stock again and youre finished
This is the last official ROM with 1.56 spl and 1.13 radio

At boot it shows, just restart your device and look at the red text in the bottom right corner, there it will show your current radio version.
Could also see it in device info when the device is on but dunno if you still can considering you need to return it.

Hi, can someone (Admin) change the title of this thread from Returning to Stock for repair! to Having screen problems after changing the rom?
I think the first is solved and now we have this new problem in hand.
best regards
+1
i've had the problem with a cooked french rom (Pyrana V17C). My screen started to freeze for a few seconds. During that time, when I put the finger on the screen and slide, the screen follows the move but it comes back to where it first was, ant the move is finally not taken in consideration ... it looks like the screen is an elastic...
So it did it sometimes and it lasted a few seconds first, and then, a couple af days later, it was more often, and I had to soft reset everytime, and yesterday, I finally had to hard reset to take back the hand, and the bug came back more quickly. So I installed the latest release of this rom this morning and everything seems to be stable since a couple of hour. If it comes back I'll try another rom, but if someone can find a way to set this, that would be perfect ...

you shouldn't have flashed the HardSPL for Sprint on your T-Mo TP2. Sprint is CDMA, T-Mo is GSM. flash this HardSPL:

sorry about that
oh..im sorry..but that is the hardspl i flashed...i get a startup screen that says "Touch pro 2", which isnt on the tmobile us version
i think its the Energy Rom startup screen that i cant get rid of...i should of never tried 2 flash such an expensive piece of plastic
If you want to replace the initial boot screen (the first one with the red writing on it), find the TMobile splash screen in whatever image format, and follow the directions here. But FYI, it's not bad/harmful or anything to have that different boot screen, that's perfectly normal with most ROMs here. Anyway, hope that helps
The easiest way to return your "stick together" splashscreen is to install the tmo test shipped rom
http://xda.caspersworld.co.uk/Downl...31.2_Radio_Rhodium_3.44.25.17_Signed_Test.exe
that will return the splash screen to normal and the radio will be the closest thing to final shipped rom
then flash cdguider's rom which is a rebuild of the original
http://xda.caspersworld.co.uk/Downloads/Rhodium/cdguider_TMOUS_Shipped_Rom_1.20.531.4.rar
that should return your rom to normal.
thanks! that did the trick, ur awesome
