Can someone help me please, I messed up big time, I accidentally installed ROM for CDMA version onto my GPRS phone. Is there anyway I can get it working again, or this is it? Now all it said on the boot screen is DIAMONDTOUCH, no version # or anything and it just stuck there. Please, any help is appreciated.
Thank
As long as you didn't flash a CDMA ROM that also contains a Radio, then you can manually enter bootloader, connect it to your PC, and flash a GSM ROM back to it.
How would I manually enter bootloader?

Hold VolDown, and reset/power on the phone. After a few seconds, you should see a tri-color screen. Plug in the USB cable, flash a GSM ROM.
I tried that, but the computer does not detect the phone.
No ActiveSync but the RomUtility for update run anyway ^^ Flash new ROM

Enter the bootloader with the cable disconnected. You should see "Serial" towards the bottom of the screen. Now plug in the USB cable. If you see "USB" appear, then you are good to go. Just start the ROM Update Utility, and let it run.

try to hard reset the device , this is her guide HTC Alpine hard reset
To perform a full reset
A full device reset clears memory, deletes all data, and restores the Pocket PC Phone to its default settings. Programs installed at the factory remain. All data that you have created and programs you have installed are erased.
Press and hold the Power button, and then use your stylus to press the “soft reset button” at the same time, as shown below. Be sure you have backed up all your data on an SD card or on a desktop PC before performing a full reset. after you hard reset the device, connect to a USB sync and you Flash Room again All you have to remember, allow usb connection .... and not disabled its usb connection Okey if you still have problems you can contact me
Do i need to go into bootloader mode first before flashing?? Cause what i did was, connect it the comp, and while it is stil connected with windows mobile device centre and the phone is still in windows mobile desktop, then i run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe, and halfway upgrading, it just turn off n go back to bootloader mode...and then after that, it auto black out after each autoconfiguration.
And by Flash Rom, do you mean just run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe with all the files in it?? or there is something else i should do???
Sorry for my ignorance And ur guidance will be very much appreaciated!!!!

Windows mobile device centre?--Seems to be the Vista/Win7 driver problem. Search for it, using the Search button.
Flashing with Win7/32bit or Vista

EnterBL.exe should reboot the device into bootloader only, Activesync should disable then. You can access bootloader manually, it's more safe
Now i managed to get into bootloader mode and upgrade it.. but the upgrade hangs halfway, the progress stays at 0% and saying it's upgrading radio, but always failed. What's should i do pls?

remove the battery from the device and wait until 10 minutes, then plug it in again and make sure your device go to the bootloader to reflash
next time before you perform the upgrade whether you've unlock device ??
Hi,
I attempted to re-lock and then flash my i9305 yesterday with the latest firmware,
However, I must have done something wrong, but the Odinupdate failed and I now cannot enter Download or Recovery modes from a powered down state.
Instead, I am presented with Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. When I try to power up the device, all I see is this message "Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again."
Even though the handset doesn't boot up properly, Windows seems to detect it and the driver support kicks in but Kies and, ABD and the GS3 toolkit will not recognise the existence of the handset.
Is this now dead and irrecoverable or can I fix this?
I have checked out the usual links on here to see if I can get the handset to startup in recovery mode again.

I hope someone can help.

Looks like I'll need to try a jig. I can't lose too much as they only cost 99p on ebay
Hi,
the USB Jig won't enter Download Mode if you can't do it with Vol Down + Home + Power
I tried to put the CM10 on my phone, after installing the zip in recovery mode, I rebooted the device and it never returned to start. Does not show a single light. Do not enter in any way with any combination. When I connect by usb the only thing that appears in device manager is "apx device." Already tried so many things and nothing worked.
anyone have any idea what's going on?
by the way, I tried a lot here in xda before opening a thread.
is your bl unlocked?

No, no, no and no. the only sign of life when it is connected to the pc. Appears "apx" in device manager.
Yeah you are in apx mode, which is basically the boot section of the nvidia tegra chipset.
You should be able to boot normally by unplugging the phone, remove battery for a few seconds, reinsert and hold power button for about 10 seconds
Also try holding power and vol+ (hold them a while) you should be able to boot into normal recovery

I've try that but dont work.
In device manager the apx device is it properly installed or does it have the triangle?
When it first connected as apx device it probably asked you for drivers, i doubt you installed them.
I don't know if the apx drivers for the 04 are out already, check these terms in xda i know some people have been working on them.
Maybe you can find them here
If the device isn't bricked you are in a situation in which you should be able to flash stuff.
For some this method worked:
Try turn off phone
take battery out
hold vol- and put usb cable into phone
if s/w mode starts put battery in and flash kdz
Otherwise check this thread out
or this
I have to go out and can't follow you for a while, sorry

The only way for you to get connected in APX is without battery, connect to PC while pressing vol- & vol+.
Anyway... why you want to do that? APX mode doesn't work in JB.
Ok... I got it.
Did you tried to deactivate the APX device in device manager?
You can try to performe the bootloader unlock again (run adb and connect the phone while the program wait for device...)
http://www.4shared.com/rar/HFf4newq/LGO4X-UNLOCK-BOOTLOADER.html (instructions inside).
Or try to get in SW mode by trying untill it works... (connect to PC while pressed vol-).
Any update on the problem?

No, i think what happened was that all the firmware is erased and this naturally gave access to apx that should be hidden by the software. Probably there was some error when I wipe to put the CM10. I see no other explanation.
The phone is actually mine. Already sent it to warranty hoping they'll fix it.
Resuming, the phone went unexpectadly in APX mode and havent found a way of quitting that mode, couldn't boot S/W neither bootloader.
And btw the phone is carrier locked and to be honest I'm not sure if it might be part of the problem or not. Anyway in about two weeks the phone should be back and hopefully fixed. If not I'll check here for some more help guys, thanks for attetion so far

When you say Odin doesn't see the phone, I presume you had put the phone into download mode?
the phone doesnt register in odin or with my computer. i need to know how to make my computer see the phone so i can use odin to fix it.

For the second time, did you put the phone into download mode? Odin isn't going to "see" it if it isn't in download mode.
I go into download mode and odin doesn't see. my computer doesn't recognize the phone at all. I want to know how to get computer to recognize that phone is connected so I can run odin or hard push file to phone.

Like @cwhiatt is saying, are you certain you're in download mode - by pressing and holding volume down + home + power? If you're in TWRP, that's recovery mode, not download. Just want to make sure that's not the issue here.
In download mode there should be a blue/green screen that says "Downloading... Do not turn off target".

Have you tried other cables? Other ports? Other computers?
some usb cables are for power only while others do data if it has just a lightning bolt on it, that's a charger if it has the universal usb logo that's data cable.
Your problem is fixed ?
