semi-bricked... revival help??? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Ok, so i had an htc wizard, but it's enclosure was in terrible condition. so I bought another bricked wizard on ebay to replace the enclosure. that went well, so i decided to see if i can revive the bricked one. turns out its only semibricked (it goes into the red green blue bootloader screen). I read that it's possable to revive a semi-bricked wizard, so can anyone give me some instructions please.
thanks

oh, and its a G4 device

RGB, and no USB
I'm needing some assistance as well. I'm on the RGB screen, I have a G4 ( Wiza 200). i've read all the articles on how to fix this. However my problem has more to do with the fact that my Win 7 {virtualized xp pro} machine can't, or rather won't see the the phone. Or if it does...none of the upgrade files I have used have worked? Suggestions?

download the offical rom for your bricked wizard put into bootloader mode. the red green blue screen. then plug it in to your comptuer and run the offical rom. after you reinstall the offical rom you should be good to go.

unable to revert to O2 rom

Hi Guys,
i consider myself relatively experienced at flashing HTC devices having been using and upgrading for a few years but i've run into an issue on my CID locked G4. i upgraded to WM6 without issue and i tried to revert back to my O2 rom, the flash failed and i'm now stuck at the splash screen. I've tried to flash the original ROM from boot loader but i get a 101 error unable to connect(can see it in device manager). as i'm using vista i did a search and found some instructions and driver files but i get the same result. the only thing i can think of now is to CID unlock but i'm not sure it will help (unless it allows me to do the SD card restore). any ideas guys?

OK., what you need to do is use a PC with XP, because i have read that vista PC's can get you into a lot of trouble. When you are at an XP PC, follow the instructions in my previous post
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313354 ).
When you flashed the original ROM, and you succeeded in doing so, think real hard if you still want to upgrade to a new ROM.
If you still want to do that, stick to a PC with XP installed (no vista!).
If you did reflash a good ROM into your HTC you'll be one step closer to upgrading your ROM.
Read this post thourougly :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
as this will help you in case you didn't CID unlock your device.
(thanks vippie; this is the clearest walktrough i could find!)
If you are really sure you CID unlocked your device, you can flash your device to any ROM you think is useful to you.
If your device is really CID unlocked, you should be able to flash any ROM that is posted on this forum.
I know that it is that easy, because i have tried every WM6 ROM that is posted on this forum
good luck, and i hope in the end you will have the ROM that you want....
thanks. my device IS CID LOCKED and i've tried to flash it from 2 XP machines so it is looking like its a brick thanks anyway.
for sale wizard with pretty 3 colour screen - sold as seen!!!
One thing you can try is use another USB to mini USB cable, i have had one cable that didn't connect really well.
Sometimes it worked but if i moved my phone the connection went down.
I just thought of that because it was a while ago that this happened - I threw away the faulty cable and had no problems after that.
tried 3 different cables too

If you have a memory card take it out. Right click on ActiveSync and go to connection settings. Uncheck allow usb connections then try to flash. With windows XP...
tried to flash on a win2K machine (4 pc's thats the only one thats not vista) still get error 101 on the original O2 rom and 300 on the wizard love rom.

I don't think you'll get much help here as this is the WIZA100 & WIZA200 forum, not the HERM300...

You say that your device is still able to enter bootloader...? If this is correct then you do not have a brick. I understand that you do not have a Wizard, but a Hermes.
This is what you need to do:
Download the Hermes Official WM5 T-Mobile Rom
Put your Hermes in bootloader mode
Connect to your PC via USB
Run the ruu_hermes_tmhu_1.21.116.4_1.05.02.00_wwe_ship.exe that you just downloaded and you should have a working Hermes again.
Next time you want to upgrade your phone, you will want to read into what you are doing VERY extensively. You will find volumes of information under the Hermes sub-forum or in the WIKI under Hermes.
Good luck. Post back here if this was helpful just so I know I didn't waste my time.(thanks)
Non-Free Way to Unbrick
I bought one of these that was bricked one time. (for super cheap). After hours of trying stuff I broke down and paid $30 at imei-check.co.uk They sim unlock and CID unlock all at once. The result was an UNBRICKED phone. I still sold it and made about $100 profit. I think an HTC employee with insider info runs the site. Good luck.

HTC TYTN II - How to recover from bad flash.

Greetings everyone,
I would like to ask for some advice.
I bought a HTC TYTN II and wanted to flash it to a ROM I found on the forum.
But to do that I had to use nueSPL-2.47.exe
That turned out to be a mistake as at the moment it started formatting to FAT32 the screen freezed. And I waited for around 15min. But nothing happend.
Now needless to say the device does not function. I tried a hard reset(Camera+Power+Reset) and just (Reset). But all I get is a screen darker than the pits off hell.
I am able to get the power light burning but that is it. Already tried putting the battery out and in again. But all to no avail. Maybe one of you can help me?
Thank you in advance.

Just a thought but...you might want to check the Kaiser forum instead...
Posted in Titan forum. Moved to Kaiser forum.
You flashed a Titan SPL to your Kaiser?
Oh dear, not to worry, it might be fixable...
Can you get to your Bootloader?

Confused "Tytn" with "Titan", too bad.. That's already happened, if you search for "nuespl" in the Kaiser forum you should find a thread about someone else who had the same problem recently.

uh oh... what was your radio version? does the PC still try to load a driver when you connect the phone?
Wrong firmware now that explains things.
It seems that the soft/hard reset and boot loader are not working for me. All I ever get is the power light and no screen at all.
Just my luck.
My phone was a 3G version.
When I connect it via USB it does try and load drivers but it does not find the correct drivers. While the phone was ok the drivers were fine.
Strange.
I sure hope I do not have to send it to my supplier. Because the phone is just 2 weeks old ;-)

are you able to load these drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=71038&d=1203255530
3G, okay, all of them are 3G... do you remember exact radio version. no problem if not, though.
Sorry I do not know the exact number.
I was able to install the drivers. So thanks for that.
But If I try and get onto my phone I have no folders. And active sync does not see the device. Maybe I need to use a program like artemis to get files on there?
There is of course a change I might be able to get files on there by putting my SD card in a card reader.
But does it boot from there?
Pocket controller-pro did not work for me.

Upgrade to 6 stuck on windows loading

Hi,
I got given a couple of Treo 750 phones. Both on the Optus Australian Network so I scratched around for days and found the upgrade software. Shows update 2.27
1st one went perfect.
2nd one on same computer got through copying files and executing update and stalled at the start of completing update.
I got the Windows mobile screen show and it just was not loading for ages. Previous one loaded and then asked for input of Date, touch screen settings etc.
The installer can be re run but says no USB connection at the moment.
I have done a hard reset and get the palm display then locks on the Windows Mobile screen.
I saw procedures to use the Mini SD card but the cards I have won't work in any treo, they are not SDHC type but standard 2G ones.
I next found the recovery tool but holding the left lower button and then hitting reset did not work but does work on my good phone where it shows the coloured bars and SPL....
The left button is a bit dodgy so I suspect it may be faulty. Is there anything else I can try?
EDIT: Ok I pulled apart the phone, looks like it had a hard life as broken case around two screws and they would not unscrew easily. Found the tiny button had dry solder joints. Fixed that up and was able to recover using the reset proceedure.
Phone now working.
could you explain in more detail what you did. thanks man

What would you like to know?
Once I physicaly repaired the phone as indicated in the edit I was able to hold the left hand button (which was faulty) and the reset at the same time that allowed me to get into the SPL mode and recover the phone.
I understand it very little and most posts on these forums are over my head.
I would like windows 6.1 but there is so much information that seems to conflict that I don't know I am game since it is now working on an official 6.0 Optus version.
I am happy to help but if you can maybe tell me where you are at the moment and what you want to acheive and what you have tried I hope I can fill in the gaps for you.
because im new to this to and i got stuck in the windows screen also. so i would like to know what to download and where from and step by step if you could please.
thanks man

Ok to start with what country are you in and what telco were you with eg Vodafone etc as you will need that as a start.
USA and im with AT&A
Try the method describe in the thread below - Mine work
Hi, you might want to try this method
Follow it one by one and do not skip a step
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=460783
I just did mine last Saturday (it was a Vodafone phone)
AT&T should be easier since the Windows 6 ROM is easier to get
If you'd like to update to WM 6.1, you should upgrade first to WM 6
Something i read about the radio not working to full capacity if you upgrade straight to 6.1
As for the WM 6 ROM, i'm sure you can find it
Good luck
Hi All,
I have a Treo 750 and it WAS running WM 6.0 Professional (OFFICIAL) and I got it onto the phone and then tried to install WM 6.5 and then I downgraded to 5.0 and tried to update back to 6 and it bricked my treo, any of you wonderful xda ppl have any solution?
Also, I have tried installing the ROM again (via SD updater) and it looks like this:
SPLASH1 OK
BOOTLOAD OK
GSM OK
Micro P OK
EXTROM FAIL
OS
Update Terminate
UPDATE FAIL
I cant install the windows installer one as WMDC 6.1 or ActiveSync 4.5 WILL NOT show the device up on the computer. I have Windows Vista Home Basic, and when I tried MTTY, the only ports I get are COM1, COM2, and COM3. I can't get the usb to show up. Even with MTTY 0.01 when I got the USB connection, it would not open. Is it Vista? Or am I not doing it right? ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED TO GET MY POOR TREO BACK!!!!!!!!!
Thanks

Is this universal (i.e. Hermes/BA/Trinity) or just for the Treo 750. I think what bricked it in the first place was installing a custom rom by veisen (WM 6.5)

Need Help My trinity is "bricked"

Hi, sorry to post a new thread
but if anyone out there who would be able to help me out.
I just got my Touch HD stolen and this has forced me to fall back on my Trinity alone again.
The problem is the phone will not boot past a screen with some chinese characters (blue screen in picture) after showing the HTC logo (in the white picture)
If i enter the bootload this is the screen i get (the tri-colour screen)
I have tried everything i can find from SD flashing (doesn't even recognize there is a fileon the SD card, only goes into the tri-color screen with serial at the bottom) to SPLxploit, to mtty you name it. Since t doesn't boot windows, i cant get it to connect to active sync so i can try flashing from the PC. If i cannect it to the PC whiles its in Bootload screen, it shows USB but if i try flashing it tells me ERROR 260 (no connection).
I would appreciate it if anyone can help me out.
