Hello everyone,
I am having problems to connect my Tilt to my pc.
First of all, when I power it on, the screen goes black and says "smart mobility" .. so far so good; but after a few seconds it starts again and loops endlessly. At that point the only way to power it down it to take the battery off.
I installed the drivers manually (Vista) and hoped to be able to use mmty (after pressing "camera button" and " power button") but I never managed to get a connection.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get my HTC tilt back to a running state?
Sooo, this only happens when connected to the PC or all the time?
It happens all the time even when not connected to PC
I forgot the most important part ... this happend since I tried to update windows mobile (source downloaded from HTC official site).
Hard reset?
if you mean holding down both green and red headset button+pressing the reset button, yes I've tried that but didn't change anything.
It went through a whole process and nothing changed? Try to flash back to an oem rom. (seems to be the new popular suggestion).
ok but how can you do that if you can't get to connect it to a PC via usb?
By following the proper steps to flash a phone either by usb or SD card.
The phone doesn't need to be fully booted to flash.
Ok, that's good news for thanks.
If by any chance you have a link to a tuto in order to do that you're welcome. Otherwise I'll google it and get back to you to keep you posted.
It's all in the sticky

Thanks I shall try to night
Thank you for your time. I finally managed to do it and my HTC is back to running.
The only problem I had trouble to solve (if it can be of any help to anyone) is that I had to unrar the *.exe which I didn't could be done.
Thanks again

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 ****
Hello everyone,
so the other day I managed to wet my Trinity a little bit (don't ask how) and it seems to work fine nevertheless, except the programme memory was wiped and the front keys stopped working - which I guess is a software fault because they do work if I keep them both pushed and soft-reset (they bring up the clear storage screen). I thought I'd reflash the ROM but now I suddenly find out I can't! I can boot into the bootloader (by keeping the buttons pressed and soft resetting or by launching SSPL-TRIN) but it's stuck at "Serial" and it won't go into the USB mode - I tried several different USB cables including the original, to no avail. USB works for ActiveSync without any problems. I've also tried putting several different TRINIMG.nbh on my storage card but the bootloader won't budge either. The Trinity is a SuperCID and works well except for the buttons and the bootloader...
I'd be very grateful indeed for any ideas!
Cheers,
k.

Yo !! first excuse my english !! lol !!
You must go to : "start - settings - connexions - USB to PC" and uncheck the option "activate advanced network" (or something like that, my p3600 is in french language). Theoretically in the bootloader the "serial" will turn to "USB" when you'll plug your cable and so you'll be able to reflash your ROM.
Peace !!
Tried that but the bootloader stays at "Serial" whatever I plug into the phone... Hm!
I'm more hopeful about the SD update method--what can I be doing wrong? I noticed that when there is a TRINIMG.nbh file on my card, the bootloader very briefly flashes a grey screen with blue letters saying "Loading" (I guess) but then returns to its normal three-coloured state. Any ideas on what that means?
Thanks everyone!
i had the same problem, take another cable and then it works, i have to many usb-cable, but with one it function, hope i could help...
greets bambi42
I've tried several cables including the original one which had worked before... no luck!
I removed a program yesterday and somehow my OS became corrupt. I could not get into the OS and was stuck at the splash screen. I went to reflash WM6 but when I plugged in activesync, nothing happened. The AS icon wasn't turning green and I was flipping out. I still kept it plugged and flashed my phone and it worked anyway. I thought that was strange.
See Usb pins contact of the pda , may one of them is on another
i had this probleme , and now it works !!!!
I tried to flash my Qtek 9100 to WM6 using the flashing tutorial on this site.
I followed the steps in the tutorial. I downgraded to Buttons ROM, unlocked the CID, and then I flashed the 3.08 IPL/SPL in stead of the T-Mobile 2.26.
Then I tried to use farias kitchen to make a WM6 and flashed it to the phone.
Everything seemed to go smoothly, but when I tried to start the phone after flashing the 3.08 and farias' to the phone, the phone just hangs at the startup screen with the picture of the beer glass and the coloseum.
I've tried to downgrade to Buttons firmware and I've also tried the Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM, but it doesn't help. I'm still stuck at the welcome screen.
Is there anything I can do, or have I bricked my phone for good?
flash an original qtek rom to your phone then try to flash the rom again
Your phone isnt bricked (yet)
I've done that, but it doesn't help. Still just hangs at the SPL/IPL screen.
Solution (worked for me)
I found a solution while looking trough the forum
I was facing the same problem on a G3 phone
this is copied from that link except the link to MTTY.exe is different (previous one doesn't work
See (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=307332)
1- I tought that a SD backup was needed, and yes it is. But u can use your own phone and your own SD to do it.
2- Get a clean SD card (in qtek 9100 / Htc Wizard case is MiniSD) with 128MB (some people say 64MB, but I personally used a 128MB, maybe a 64MB is enough)
3- Kill (task manager) wescomm.exe (this is related with activesync installed on your PC). Insert the blank SD card on the phone.
4- Get your phone in bootloader mode. Like this : Phone powered off, press Camera button + Power On, will enter in bootloader mode (RGB screen).
5- Now connect your USB cable to your phone. And start MTTY.exe ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=231190 ). After open, on Port selection, choose USB and press OK. A window will open with a blank sheet.
6- Type "r2sd all" and hit enter... wait to the end (at end shows "cmd>"). On your phone screen u can follow backup progress... small bar will appear down the RGB screen.
7- Power off the phone (or remove battery), enter bootloader mode (camera button + power on) and this time RGB won´t appear right away. Will ask if u want to "download SD image", press voice dial button to agree, and writting will begin. Wait to the end. Power off and power on normally. Now your phone should be working ok. Not even needed to reflash the phone after this.
I hope this helps you out
It worked for me (and other people if you look at the forums)
That solution was already known and was, in fact, discovered for the Wizard by a guy called 'Drugstore'
But what really matters is that this procedure only works if the device is already CID unlocked.
cheers
MDA Vario freezes at 2nd boot screen
I have the same problem. I flashed wm6.1 according to tutorial on this side. everything worked fine, until the time I uninstalled some application. after that my Vario froze. after soft reset it stopped on second screen (the one with info), and so it is anytime I try to reflash to other ROM. everything works fine until the time it shoud reboot.
I found this thread and tried the thing with backup image. everything worked, copying image to the phone ended with success. so I turned off the phone and started it again. but now, after all, I'm just back at the beginning
can somebody help me out with another solution??? pls.....
Try mtty

I didn't have chance to try this.... My Vario is already dead... Probably is my fault... As far, I wasn't able to flash to official T-mobile ROM, I did a backup copy to a SD card on my friends phone, and then tried to copy the image into mine... I'm afraid I destoyed bootloader this way After I turned off my phone first time after flashing, it didn't start again.... It doesn't react even to wall charger... Nothing... Just dead Vario
Get a powerfull charger

There is a post that suggest that somebody revives his batt with a wall charger, maybe is your batt... is dead... or your s is bricked.
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.

This one works for me. Thx!
On My XP computer i was able to flash mine and my fiancées phone's in the correct way then when i went to do my friend's in the exact same way it KDZ updater crashed near the end so now the phone is stuck in boot loop. All i can get up on it now is DOWNLOAD MODE but every time i try 2 re-flash it the computer loses connection with it. I've tried every possible way available here and over at Modaco but haven't had any joy. Does anyone have any idea what could possibly be wrong?
I haven't a clue how i got it working but think it was somewhere along the line's of taking everything out of the phone and plugging the USB in so it turned on itself. Instead of the phone booting up it came up showing a pic of the phone to show to put the back cover back on and was able to get the drivers to work then. Hopefully this will help[ other ppl!
try to set it in download mode and reflash
Hey thanks for the reply but i had already edited the bottom of the post to say how i got round it so hopefully it would help others. Thx anyway.
