Flashing radio rom, phone won't reboot?

I downloaded T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly from the FTP site and tried flashing it tonight. I'm not as addicted as some of you but I've flashed my phone several times before without any problems. This time it's not working...
I ran the updater that came in the T-Mobile-UK_2.19.11_Radinly zip file and everything seemed to be going as usual. When it got to the point where the phone restarts and it is supposed to start flashing the rom, the phone shuts down but never comes back on. I need to pop out the battery in order to get the phone to come back on at all, but it works fine once I do that.
I also tried a copy of the RomUpdateUtility that I had used previously but the same thing happened. Not sure what info would be helpful in troubleshooting this but...

Thanks for any help you can give!

You may try to enter bootloader manually by pressing Camera+reset, then use the RUU.

What's the right sequence if I do it manually?
1. Hit Camera+reset to enter bootloader manually.
2. Start up RUU and go through the process on my PC.
OR
1. Start up RUU and get to the point where my phone won't restart properly.
2. Hit Camera+reset to manually bring up the bootloader.
Or something else?
Thanks!

The first version is the right way.

I was able to get this to work, but I found the answer in another thread. I had to take out my SD card, and then the RUU rebooted my phone as usual. Maybe I'm crazy but I don't remember ever having to do that before.
However... I tried forcing bootloader with the camera+soft reset trick and it didn't work... even if I took out the SD card. Does this mean there is something wrong with my phone?

If you're able to boot in to your OS then your bootloader is fine. If it wasn't your phone wouldn't boot at all. How are you trying to get in to the boot loader? Are you turning your phone off and pressing and holding the camera button and then using the power button to turn it on or are you using the soft reset hole? Use the power button if you weren't.
As for your phone not rebooting if you have your SD card in it, it sounds like it's time to reformat the card. Hopefully you have everything backed up off of it.

Thanks for your help... I *was* using the reset button. Now I can force the bootloader just fine.
My SD "seems" to be OK (I can see all the files and I tested a few for readability), but I'll give the format a shot for next time I flash.

p.s. When you try to format your SD card, it is recommended to use Raw disk editor (e.g. WinHex) to zero out first several bytes of the card, then repartition the card (1 partition) and format again (using FAT), then the bootloader will no longer thinks your card is a special one and toggle some strange action.

Flash Stop at 1% trying to go back to Stock ROM

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.

HTC Pure won't boot, flash stuck at 0% HELP!!

Please help, I was uninstalling some applications from my HTC PURE and had to restart the phone, when it was rebooting it hung at the ATT screen and there was small red text in the bottom left screen.
I had previously installed HardSPL 1.83 but relocked it via instructions in 2nd post because I'm still deciding if I wanna keep the phone and didn't wanna do anything for warrenty reasons.
I have the stock ROM and never installed anything except the HardSPL and the revert.
Please help me, I have tried to load the ATT Pure Stock/Shipped ROM I found here but everytime I try to in the bootloader mode it says either "no image file" or hangs at loading depending what I've tried to name the file. Also I've tried to run customruu.exe to install the stock ROM and also tried to install HardSPL 1.83 but it hangs at 0% and eventually wants to do recovery on the PC.
How do I fix this problem, and preferabbly get it back stock. I do have a warrenty, well unless I violated it by installing HardSPL then doing the revert.
Thanks

Of course you hard reset?
Make sure your SD card is formatted to Fat32 and you may mant to try a different card, 2gb - 4gb.
What does your SPL say now in bootloader mode?

Yes I tried a hard reset. I can try another sd card the one I used was fat32 and 2gb. I believe it says 1.33 can't look now but I know it's not the same as an untouched pure.

Help!
You are not the only one who is having this issue. I am frustrated beyond frustrated. How are other people flashing their out of the box ATT Pures using the same exact steps but I can't? It's making no sense.
1. I turn off firewalls.
2. I've tried both usb and sd card boot, didnt work
3. I installed the enablerapi cab
Nothing works and I am having the same problem you are having...it stays on 0% forever and it doesnt even prompt me saying there is an error it just sits on 0% until I unplug it...

Are you trying to HSPL or flash a ROM?

Well
According to what i've read, you have to do Hard SPL before you flash a rom, so i've been trying to HardSPL and it doesn't work! I even tried to skip the step and just flash the rom and it doesnt work..
Now, I also have an ATT Tilt to and I JUST flashed a rom 30 mins ago, so it has nothing to do with firewalls or anything as far as my computer goes, I think its the phone, so what can I do?

Its a good thing flashing the ROM didn't work, you'd be bricked.
For flashing HSPL, it seems that newer phones are having an issue.
Something may have been changed that is preventing the unlocker from working.
Do the following;
1. Hard Reset
Instructions:
- Soft reset with stylus
- Hold Vol up & Vol dwn simultaneously until white screen appears
- Following screen prompts, Press Vol up to confirm.
2. Go to bootloader mode.
Instructions:
- Turn off your device using the power button
- When the device is turned off, simultaneously press the Vol dwn + Power button
- Your device will startup in Bootloader mode
Should say SPL: 1.33 or something.
3. Sync your phone to your PC.
4. Install enablerapinew.cab
5. Unzip both Topaz_CustomRUU_v1.1.zip & SPL_183.zip to the same folder
6. Run the CustomRUU.exe
This process should install HSPL and now when you enter bootloader mode you should see something like SPL: 1.83 Olinex.
If so, you're ready to start flashing custom ROMs.
If not, please report all errors to the HSPL thread or PM Olipro.
**I take no responsibility for any loss of data or functionality of your device.**

See, the problem with your instructions are...
1. You cannot soft reset with the stylus, I don't see a button anywhere on the phone ( ATT PURE not Diamond 2 )
2. Holding Vol up & Vol down simultaneously until white screen appears doesn't work. The only thing that works is when I hold Vol Down and the screen with the colors come up, not a white screen.
So i'm still lost. Thanks for your help regardless. I just really want to flash a new rom so I can stop using this stupid slow ATT rom.

So basically you are messing with your Pure and don't know how to soft reset?
Remove the stylus and in the groove for the stylus is a red dot, that is the red reset button. Insert the tip of the stylus in the red dot and push. Now the Pure will soft reset.
Probably should familiarize yourself with the device before you finish turning it into a brick!

Oh wow. That is so hidden.
On my Touch Pro 2 its right there on the side where you can see it, with words.
Anyway, Thank you very much, i'll try that.
Still, what about the Up and Down button volume button function so I can go into bootloader mode?

Now that you found the soft reset button.... follow my procedures.
Note- you have to hold the keys IMMEDIATELY after soft reset before the boot screen appears.

Ok.

Didn't work, I re-did the steps you listed 3 times over to make sure I was correct and the same results. I guess ATT has found a way to stop their phones from being unlocked.

You should probably post over in the HSPL thread.
You'll get more help over there. There are many others having similar issues and there may be a fix over there.
FYI, when you get to the tri colored screen, that is where it shows what SPL you have currently.

Updating rom freeze
Hi, I don't post much if at all, normally you guys have it right on the button, this is my 3rd phone to run custom roms on but for some reason it just freezes on the "Updating ROM image on your PDA Phone..." screen and doesn't continue past, on my last 2 phones active sync worked well with updating to custom roms,seems like my Pure produces the same error after the attempt, its a communication error "ERROR [262] : UPDATE ERROR", now recovering from the error is not a issue, we all have familiarity in that area but I was wondering if it could be something as simple as the cable that was sent with my phone or if its possible to flash rom through sd card as opposed to using active sync?

Yes, you can flash through storage card, just rename the .nbh to TOPAIMG.nbh, Put in root of storage card and enter bootloader mode.
You have HSPL'd, right?

I was just going through the thread. I have the same issue. i have place topaimg.nbh in the root of storage card and entered bootloade mode, it shows loading and is stuck at 0%.
HSPL is 1.83. Went through entire thread of HSPL but unfortunately didn't find any solution.

Just to confirm, you have to name it exactly "TOPAIMG.nbh".
With all of the people that have tried all methods and still can't flash, something must have changed in the stock SPL.

From HTC site (HTC Pure support):
What is a Soft Reset and how is it performed?
A soft reset basically resets the memory structure in the handheld. This recovers the device from memory conflicts, corrupted system service chains (mainly due to attempting hacks), memory leaks, and system lockups due to the “Fatal Exception” program errors. Removing the battery from the device while it is still powered on is NOT a soft reset and can actually damage the device.
A Soft Reset is performed by:
Remove the Battery cover and the Stylus from the device.
Insert the tip of the stylus into the Reset hole located at the entry point of the stylus silo.
The device will reboot.

How to flash phone without activesync or access to memory?

My phone got wet and now it starts up but gives me the black screen where I can press volumeup to hard reset, but it doesn't respond when I do this. I'm trying to flash it or do something to fully revert it to a brand new state, but I obviously can't use active sync and cannot get access to the phone's internal memory. How can I do anything?

flash through sd card. good luck with that. Hope you did try the phone completely

I was hoping there was a way to flash with just the sd card. Would you be kind enough to at least link me to where I could find instructions for this?
The phone is dry. It starts up fine and keeps on, stuck at that black screen. It's been a while since I got it wet.
Thanks.

Well it won't matter because it has water damage. Are the little stickers inside pink? If so then they will charge you for any repairs so it won't matter what ROM you have on..

Who will charge me for repairs?
I don't recall ever saying that I will give it in for repairs, because I am aware of the voiding of the warranty when the wet seal becomes pink. Because I realize all of this, I decided to give it a chance flashing the phone and starting it with a new install to see if that would work, as my last chance to get anything out of it.

Thanks, but I checked those instructions out already, and they assume that I am able to use activesync with the phone. The phone doesn't boot far enough for activesync on my computer to recognize it. All I can do it insert the 16gb microsd card into my usb card reader and put whatever I want on it, and then back into the phone. I would think there is a way to just put the rom onto the sd card and put it into the phone, and then press some kind of bootloader startup key combination so that the phone goes straight to the installation.

If you take a look a little further down the very same page that SonyEX1 provided, you will see this:
Flashing Via MicroSD Card
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download your prefered Rom from the Rhodium Rom Develpoment Page and unzip/unrar it to your PC
3. Goto the Roms Folder and rename the .nbh file to RHODIMG.nbh
4. Copy the RHODIMG.nbh file to the root of your MicroSD Card
5. Plug the MicroSD Card into the phone
6. Enter the BootLoader screen, you will first see a tri-color screen with the phone and SPL Information at the top
7. Follow the On Screen instructions to start the update
8. After flash has completed, press the reset button with the stylus to reset the device.
As has been stressed many a time on this forum, please make sure that you read through all of the instructions (entire page) very carefully prior to flashing.

Thanks, I noticed that note at the end of the post, but the only rom that I think I would be able to flash is the stock one, because I don't have HardSPL. I can't get HardSPL because I can't activesync the phone to my pc. So I pretty much need the stock rom in nbh format to try anything at all.
I noticed that when I enter the bootloader and plug the phone in to my computer via usb, the computer detects something and says that an htc device is attached, but microsoft activesync still doesn't recognize it and the phone doesn't show up in my computer.
So I guess the search is on to find an .nbh format for the stock rom.

I am not sure what carrier you are on, but if you download the stock ROM from whichever carrier you need (or the generic HTC ones if you have an unbranded one) it should be an .EXE file.
You should be able to right-click on the .EXE and extract the contents into a temp directory using any decent compression software (I use 7-zip). There should be a RUU_signed.nbh file that you can rename, copy to your microSD and manually flash from there.
(And if you already didn't know, you enter bootloader mode by first powering off the phone, hold down the VOL Down key, and power the phone back up while holding the VOL Down key. You should then see the tri-color screen above. This part isn't mentioned in the instructions above and assumes you already know how to get into bootloader mode.)

Thanks. I didn't know that you could extract .exe's, so I have been searching and found someone's uploaded stock rom in .nbh format. I put it on the sd card and went to the bootloader with it. Right now, It's been at a white screen that just says "Loading...". This has been going on for the past 5 minutes without changing. I don't know how a successfull rom flash is supposed to look like, so I don't know if it's working or not.
Is it supposed to be moving or what? How long do I wait before snatching the battery?

UPDATE:
I guess the stock rom that I tried previously was faulty or something, because it was hung on the loading screen, so I downloaded the TMOUSA one from their website, extracted the NBH, and put it on the SD card. Everything started looking really good because I had a progress bar and it said something like Radio OK and something else was OK and it was loading the ROM, and then all of a sudden it rebooted into the bootloader, gave some kind of error that I can't really read because it is written on top of the other text in the bootloader, goes into the Loading screen to begin installing the rom, and then reboots again. This is the loop that takes place right now.
It seems like the problem is a dead battery though, because it started flashing fine that first time, and now the phone won't even turn on unless I plug it into USB power from the wall or a PC. But when I do plug it in, it just goes through this bootloader loop. So here is where I'm stuck.

It seems like I need a fully charged battery to attempt to reflash the stock rom or install any other rom because when the phone is in bootloader, it doesn't charge the battery, and I have no means of charging it.

you should be able to charge te phone when it is completely off/ Pull the battery out, put it back in (do not power it up), and charge it over night (or at leastfor a couple hrs)

If the phone was fine before you got it wet, what makes you think re-flashing the stock rom will make it better?

I once crashed my ROM while flashing and wasn't able to do at least anything.
There was no USB-Connection or something else.
At last I entered the bootloader and there the USB-Connection was working and my Computer recognized the Mobile. So I suggest you to try this. To enter the bootloader look for any tutorials around here.

Because as I've mentioned previously, after getting wet, the phone boots up into a black screen where it tells me that I can press the VolUP button to hard reset or anything else to soft reset. Pressing any keys at that point doesn't do anything and I can only shut it down by taking out the battery. So I decided to at least try reflashing the rom. It looked like it was installing fine with the last power the battery had, but now I have no hope.

i have heard of shops that charge batteries up but never seen one. I suppose you may be able to buy a stand alone battery dock if they do one for the Touch Pro 2. Dont you know anyone with the same phone that could charge it for you?

No I don't really know anyone with the same phone. I've called 4 shops and all said that they either don't have the same phone to put the battery in to charge, or can't perform this kind of service. I ended up taking apart a usb cable and formulating my own usb charger. Charging right now, will report on how this worked out.

Ok. This is the kind of device i meant.

Energy Rom Problem

For the past few months I've been flashing separate Energy Roms onto my tilt 2. I finally found one that I liked and stuck with it for the past few weeks, which was the Dinik Glass Energy rom.
Everything was running great until last night when I was watching a video on You tube and everything froze up. I pulled the battery out and turned the phone back on and now it keeps going to the boot loader screen....
I've tried re flashing different roms to see if that would work but I've gotten nothing out of it.
If anyone could let me know of anything that i could possibly do to try and fix this I would be highly appreciative of it.

I dont know what may have caused the problem but in your situation i would have tried to do task29, flash radio and then flash a new ROM. this is normally how i flash my roms but task29 may remove somethin that may be causing the problem. if you have already done so, sorry for wasting 5 secs of your life ... let me know if it worked

Can you show me where I can dl task 29 at?

I had the same thing happen to my tilt2 last week!
Use task 29,
dont freak out when it only shows the screen that says touch pro 2.
Enter into bootloader and run ruu from there, it will fix everything.
Dont flash with sd card in or it will happen again.
I had to clear my sd card and reload it! good luck.
one more thing after task 29 do not disconnect from usb until you load next rom, that is what worked for me best.
hope it helps

I used the RUU and i tried reloading the ROM but it still starts in boot loader screen every time.
Should I just hit the hard reset?

you have nothing to loose by a hard reset at this point ... IF that works.

If I hard reset it will I have to flash a hard spl again?

Ok i noticed that yoy are pritty confused about the terminolog, so here is some help:
1. Task 29 - delets your rom of the phone so your phone become practicly unuseble.
2. HardSpl - "Unocks" (allowes) the phone for flashing custom made roms - i.e. all roms and ro preform Task 29.
3. Hard rest - reinstalls allready flashed rom.
4. Soft reset restart the phone - on/of
5. BOOTLOADER - allowes you to flash without activesync and from Sd card.
When any problem turns on with phene i usually check to see if there is any connection running. I discovered that too much internet over phone makes a phone buggy dissregarding the rom.
You dont have to hardspl phone again, once you did is enough.

Okay well here is the problem then... every time I turn the phone on it goes straight to bootloader. The only button I press to turn the phone on is the main power button. I've ran the custom RUU twice now. I've tried flashing a new rom onto the phone via sd card but it still turns on in bootloader mode. I'm nearly freaking out now because I'm led to believe I've got a bricked piece of $hit.
I hate sounding like a noob but if there is some way someone could run a step by step process to me that works I might through some $$ via pay pal.

I had the same problem with a phone about a month ago. I was able to flash the stock rom and it would boot up then put on the stock SPL and relock the phone. Sometimes I was able to take the battery out and get it to boot but even with the stock ROM I was getting the bootloader at startup. So once I reloaded the stock ROM and relocked it, I returned it and got a replacement.
Sorry, nothing I did every resolved the problem.
good luck.

I agree with taking everything back to stock
flash stock rom
do a spl relock
and start over...
oh, and dont forget about radios! idk if that could be part of the problem tho

I never changed the radio's so I should be good to go then, just the stock rom?

Try this :
- Enter bootloader
- Connect USB cable so "serial" in the bootloader changed to "USB"
- Perform Task29
- Reset
- If the phone enters bootloader skip this step. If not, hold volume down key while resetting (push the reset switch with stylus). The phone will enter bootloader.
- Flash a stock ROM. Download it from HTC website if you don't have one.
- Reboot.
Ow, the stock ROM also contains Radio. So Flashing with stock ROM will flash your radio also.

When you returned your phone and got a replacement was your phone starting in boot loader?
If so how did the workers at the ATT store react to that so I know what to expect?

How would you recommend that I flash the stock ROM back on?
I'm kind of confused because I've always flashed with my SD card, how do I do it through my USB? Could you give me a step by step?

Well, those steps I wrote are basically "step-by-step how to flash from usb".
Allow me to clear it:
- Enter bootloader -> Hold volume down button while pushing the reset switch
- Connect USB cable to your computer. and wait until the "serial" word in the bootloader changed to "USB"
- Perform Task29, download task29 and unzip it. run ROMUpdateUtility.exe. Follow the instruction.
- Reset/reboot. well, the phone will reboot itself after task29 is completed
- If the phone enters bootloader skip this step. If not, hold volume down key while resetting (push the reset switch with stylus). The phone will enter bootloader. Connect the usb cable again to your computer (if you disconnect it.) and wait until the word "serial" changed to "usb" again.
- Flash a stock ROM. Download it from HTC website if you don't have one. Just run the exe file you downloaded and follow the wizard.
- Reboot.
I reccomend you to flash with stock ROM because Stock ROMs are "Guaranteed to work(at least by HTC )" and contains radio that may be the cause of your problem. there's no need to flash to stock SPL, yet.

I was stuck in bootloader...
You can find task 29 here. I always do this before flashing.
After task 29, make sure USB is still plugged in and enter bootloader by holding Volume Down key while hitting the reset button. You should see USB on the bottom of the bootloader screen.
Now you should be able to flash the NRG ROM by running the RUU in the same folder as your ROM (rhodium.nbh file).
If this doesn't help, search the entire forum for "stuck in bootloader." I did this and it saved me the hassle of the warranty process.

I was able to get it to boot to the ROM by removing the battery several times and reinserting, powering on until it boot. I am on TMobile and called them and they sent me a new phone and returned the old through the mail after expalining the problem. So never went into the store.
good luck.
