i usually put new Roms on my devise so this isn't new to me one day i was putting a new ROM on it and it said it completed successful but when i turned my phone on it was stuck in bootlader screen even when i loaded the ROM through the SD card pls help
Was it the same ROM every time? Einstein said that the definition of insanity was repeating the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
Try re-downloading the ROM, or flashing a different one.
i made sure to try out many things hears what i did i
tried using multiple roms
tried the stock rom
and now i think im just gonna leave it on bootlader screen till the baterry runs out and try again but i dought itll work i need a way to relod the botlader if that posible
Unless you have another way to recharge that battery, I wouldn't recommend letting it drain all the way. I have seen several threads started by people who did this and then could not get the battery to charge in the phone without a jump start from an external charger.
Edit:
Did you task 29 between each ROM flash?

Task 29 shouldn't be necessary...
To the OP, download a different ROM, on a different computer and with a different internet connection if possible. You never know (I had to do this once cuz I kept downloading corrupted ROMs).
ill try using my laptop and incase that dosnt work how do u do a task 39
nuts this is giving me so many prob i get it to load the new rom and it sas its sucesful and i see it loadin gon the phone and when it restarts it just goes rite back to bootlader like nothing was laded onto it
um i treid flashing multiple roms on multiple computers and i have a nwe prob god hats me anyway now my phone isnt gets into the progress bar the one that shows u how much of the rom is loaded onto the divice and its just stuck at zero im sry to bother u but this is really becoming frustrating

If its stuck at zero, pull out battery, try again. Switch USB wires, download a different ROM and make sure you have HardSPL. Its a very simple process actually. Not rocket science... So don't panic
Keep at it, and you will get it.
i tried to restore my hard spl and even that i cant put on
I know you said you tried several roms were any of these stock roms?
You shouldn't need to re-flash Hard SPL.
Try the sd card method instead.

Hello Guys,
I am thinking about Flashing back to my original ROM that came with my Xperia. I tried other ROMs, primarily Itje's, and they are just brilliant, but I am not sure how they be used as everyday ROMs. The Touch-IT 4.5 has the battery leakage issue, some SMS issue, and I really don't like the new Start Menu thing with TouchFlo. Even though they have a fix with for the Start Menu thing, you lose the Programs tab, since the new TouchFlo is not meant to be like that. I understand that there must be more solutions for that ROM, but I will be honest, even after reading as much as possible AND searching, it's just so impossible to go through those 100s of pages.
I also tried the WM 6.5 Beta ROM. Again, excellent work on Itje's part, but I just don't think I am ready for WM 6.5 yet. It's just not stable and that is understandable since it's BETA.
Anyway, with that said, since I am not very experienced with Flashing, I had a question. What happens to a phone if the ROM image (Kovsimg.nbh) that is chosen to Flash the phone with, from an SD Card, is corrupt? Does the phone get stuck in the middle of everything, and the phone ends up as a brick, or are there any ways to prevent this from happening?
I am just asking this because I am not certain... the ROM I backed up COULD be corrupt, I mean I don't know. There were no errors when I backed it up, and followed the tutorial with no problems.
Any help is appreciated, thank you very much guys!
I just got out of that situation. Tried flashing by micro sd way. Took out batt and micro sd, then used the USB flashing tool to flash a new rom.
Thanks for your response, dadeadman, but after reading your reply, I am a bit more confused (Sorry). Please correct me if I am wrong, but are you saying that you tried Flashing with the SD, it was unsuccessful (for whatever reason), you then took out your battery and the SD Card, and Flashed it through USB using the RUU Flashing tool? If this is correct, then can you explain how the phone even connects to the computer with an OS (ROM) on it? I would assume that if the flashing process gets corrupt, the phone ends up with no bootable OS, right?
Sorry for the confusion, I hope it made sense .
You have to put it in bootloader mode then connect the usb. The white bottom portion of the bootloader screen will say USB, though the mobile device cnetre/activesync cannot detect. However you are still able to flash a working rom with the RUU Flashing tool.

Nice, thanks a lot for your reply man, that makes me feel much better !
hey guys, few days back i strung the courage torgether to flash rom.
everything was going well till i noticed that my xperia was updating the rom and seemed to take forever to load the rom.
at present it switches itself on and off and says continuing to update rom and then a white screen with blue text says loading.
I need to find a solution to this as if i tell my dad that the device is cooked im in deep, and i also do not have insurance of which was a dull thing.
so please any suggestions and tips whould be much appriciated ty. x
I am no expert. But have you HardSPL your phone before flashing the ROM? That is a requirement.
For the current prob, I can imagine taking out your SDcard (if you are using card method) should stop it from reading the image. You prob have to hard reset the device for it to boot properly.
hey thanks for reply,
Iv tried removing the sd card but to no evail, when i do this the xperia is stuck at the bootload mode and says continuing to update rom, my battery has drained so i cnt switch the phone on, it has to be dne when on the charger.
and a hard rest does nt work.
Did you HardSPL? If not, you will need to do that first.
Anyway found few threads on it.

yes sorry i didnt metion, yer i did hardspl, and i just tried hard restting and nothing happend the screen stayed on bootload and then few seconds later went to loading please wait . . . ?,
ive done a lot of research and still cant find a solution. im sort of a newb, heres the problem my wifes TP2 when she turns it off and turns it back on the phone gets stuck on bootloadr screen, tried to hard reset but wont do anything. but when i plug it with usb to my laptop if i soft reset it will boot up.I read that alot of people had the same problem and just had to install a coocked rom, well i did i installed energys rom but it still had the same issue. Now its back to stock rom. any info on how to fix this is appreciated and thnx in advance.
Get it replaced under warranty
if you were able to flash a cooked rom, you must have installed hard-spl.
when did you do this, after the problem appeared to be able to flash the energy rom, or before? maybe this could be the problem...

well the first time her phone did it i googled the problem and it brought me here, a thread that said stuck at bootloader screen and their solution was flashin a cooked rom. well it got the phone to boot after i did that but every time if she turns it off and back on it gets sutck at the tri color screen. i installed hard spl when i was flashin rom.
here is a thread on the subject already.[/QUOTE]yea been at that thread also,but my problem is that when i turn the phone off and when i turn it back on it wont boot up it just gets stuck there, like i stated above i already flashed hard spl and flashed a energy rom but it still does the same thing. i flashed the phone back to the original rom but is still gets stuck, the phone works as long as she dont turn it off but after awhile her ram goes up to like 80 so i have to turn it off, and to turn it back on i have to use my laptop. and thanx for the help guys i really appreciate it. and phone dont have warranty i bought it on craigslist.
Since it's going to the tri-color bootloader screen, seeing as normally to get to that screen you would hold volume down on boot, have you checked inside the back of the case to make sure there isn't dirt/debris jamming the volume down button? If the volume adjusts normally once you do get it booted, that may not be it, or maybe it's just a short in the key.
Also, both the stock ROM and energy ROMs are bad about eating ram, and need to be rebooted regularly. Maybe try one of the ROMs that doesn't, like a Jackos rom, which you can leave running for days without a reset. Might not solve your problem, but might at least take some of the bother out of it.

I take it you haven't used the latest NRG ROM. Mine runs for several days.

You've got me, there. The last energy rom I tried was a little bit ago, and was a Maxsense version at that. Even still, it soundly failed my Opera Mobile 10 test on a clean flash off of a fresh boot (it would autokill OM 10 to free up ram without any other apps open). Any rom that does that goes straight into the bin as far as I'm concerned.
I have been meaning to drop one of the more recent builds on to see if that was just a bad experience. Maybe try one of the titanium versions, just to make sure I'm giving it a fair shake. Either way, this has now gotten at least a bit off topic. =P

yea i have the sep 18 nrg rom on mine wich now runs very good. well after a couple reboots with the phone plugged to my laptop, i unplluged it and tried a soft reset and thank god it booted normal, i then powered the phone off and turnd it back on and it worked. dont know what the problem was but i appreciate everyones help.
There is different things that you can do to try and resolve your problem. Start by finding a rom that you would like to install on your phone and save the file to your SD Card. FL5 Mentioned Jacko's rom and I swear by it as well. I run the showlite version modified to my liking and still have on average about 80 mbs of ram open.
2nd thing to do would be a Task 29 which will pretty much formats your phone. This is important to do because if there is any "debris' left over from any of the roms you have installed, this will take care of that. "Debris" at times cause issues that you cannot pinpoint and interfere with the rom that is currently installed. It is also important that you do this step second because once you do a Task 29 you will not be able to flash through USB. At least, I have not been able to do so. I flash from my SD Card. You can get Task 29 here-->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=649191
Once you do that, flash your rom from your SD Card by following the directions here-->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
Hopefully this fixes your problem. If it doesn't, you don't have to soft reset to free up ram. I use software called "cleanram" and usually run it on level 3 which means that it thoroughly finds processes taking up ram and reclaims it. You can also schedule a daily, weekly, hourly clean under the settings menu. You can find that here-->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514333
Best of luck.
Oooooooooooo yeah! Task 29 is absolute magic. Completely wipes your NAND before a flash to remove the chance of old ghost files from past ROMs jacking up your system. If you've followed any of the flashing tutorials on the board then you've definitely been doing this step, and thus this shouldn't have been your problem. Not everyone has problems if they skip it, but all sorts of seeminly otherwise random problems can pop up otherwise.

Eh ? I don't know what's going wrong for you, but that's completely untrue. After running task29, you need to unplug the phone from the PC, put the phone into the bootloader (e.g. press reset while holding down the Volume Down button), wait for it to come up and say "Serial" at the bottom, then plug it back in and it should say "USB". Then you can flash via USB (which is safer than flashing from SD card, since it does more checking).

The 20 Sep ROMs have the option of using quick menu. With that option, even with Sense 2.5 and CHT (a RAM hog), I have 88 Mb available on a normal basis. I don't use Opera 10 (also a RAM hog), but I think it would work with the new ROM.
You have to manually select the Quickmenu option.
well the problem with her phone is fixed. but now my hardware keys stay on dim but they stay on, im gonna try doin task 29 and reflashing a rom see if that takes care of my issue.
Well just for future references, I had all of the above problems and tried all of them. Issue did not go away until I did the following steps..:
Run Task 29
Flash new ROM (Issue still exist)
Flash New Radio (Issue still exist)
Reflashed Hard-SPL (This somehow fixed the issue....)

well i just did all of it and the freakin keys wont go off, n e one have any other suggestions? and thanks to every one for their help.
So this morning I woke up to my AT&T Tilt 2 rebooting itself. It was rapidly, and repeatedly rebooting. It's so bad to the point where I'm lucky if I can HardSPL, Task29, and Reflash it. I've done it 3 times already today because it hasnt gone long before going into the rebooting fritz. Anybody know whats going on? What do I do?

What rom are you running? We will be able to help better if you include this info in your signature. Are you overclocking? You only need to HardSPL once. Try doing a hard reset manually loading apps one at a time to see what may be causing the problem.
Well not too long ago, I just got to the post limit that activates editing of the signature. And it keeps restarting, so I dont have a chance to flash a different rom. And I guess I do overclock, every rom i see has instructions of hardspl and task29 befofe flashing each rom. But yea it wont let me flash cuz it constantly restarts and messing up the flashing process

Have you tried to hard reset? If so, does it make it through the set up?
HardSPL unlock the device so you can flash different ROMs. Once you have done this you don't need to again. I think I would try the hard reset and then do not load anything (if your use XDA_UC press no when it asks to start). Then wait and see if it restarts. If not then load the apps you use one by one and see if it returns. If it does try to run task 29. If that completes let it sit and see if it restarts then. If it does there is something with your phone that is making it restart. One other thing... what radio version are you using?
Enter bootloader first(power,volume down button at same time),connect to computer,then flash new rom....
WC
Ok it was acting fine yesterday, now it just started going into the reboot spazz again. And Idk know wat you mean by install apps one by one, i cant install anything cuz its constantly restarting.
And WC, I already stated that because of the constant and rapid restarting, I cant flash it because it always restarts before its done.
Is it possible your reset button is stuck or damaged? Has it gotten wet?
I dont think its stuck, I've tried pressing it and it seemed to press fine (it didnt have an effect tho). ANd no the phone hasnt gotten wet.
Hello,
I don't know what happened but the other day something really bad happened.
After unlocking my HTC HD7 really well (see here), my girlfriend also got he same phone that came with the same SPL and everything,
Went throught RSPL and HSPL fine, but when attempting to write a custom rom (latest from ansar, like I did to mine), at 5-6% throwed a write to flash error [226], and the only way to get out was getting out the battery
I tried a few more times without any luck, always stuck at 6% on the laptop and 5% on the phone, until once when I took the battery out, the phone didn't start again, no response on anything, battery, power plugin, button combination ...
What could go so wrong? I thougth that when having done RSPL and HSPL, installing ROMS couldn't brick the phone
I can change the phone once, but now I'm really scared even updating mine in the future
What does make the [226] errors? I searched a lot but found nothing, some people says the radio is to high? some the drivers
And what does going the phone from working in bootloader to brick? Maybe u have to wait some time before taking off battery after the write error [226] to make sure?
if you freshly dld the rom i suggest you to reload it from internet, then do a defrag to have your files cleaner than possible...hope you didn't do wrong with H/RSPL it could be harmful
