Hi there,
I installed a bunch of stuff on the AKU3.2 Rom H-tec innov / O2 ROM which i found on the ftp and now when i soft-reset the phone, it either gets stuck (in windows) on Today, where it only loads like half of it and is consequently stuck or it resets again...
How would I be able to solve this issue having that it doesn't connect to ActiveSync?
Thanks a bunch,
John

OK let me clarify.... phone is totally unresponsive. I turn it on, HTC Innovation screen pops then the O2 with all the version, it loads windows and you can't really do anything but turn it off... or hard reset which doesn't help because the next time it loads, it just does the same thing...
What can I do

Try to put it in bootloader mode and reflash. Goodluck!

Thanks for your reply, could you direct me please to somewhere where i can read of how to put it in bootloader mode? I have no idea and I can't find it in the manual. Thanks
If you want, you can IM me on YIM: ionutz_ceo
Thanks a lot
I've achieved putting it into bootloader mode, how would I go about reflashing now?
lol, ok!
So basically this is the result of my 2 hour research::
If you're Wizard is frozen, you do this:
1. Turn off USB in ActiveSync
2. Download mtty
3. While phone is off, press Camera button then holding it press Power button on phone and it will load in bootloader mode
4. Connect mtty to the phone via usb
5. <<< Here is when my research parts ways
6a. You can use a sd card and put an image on it, using mtty reflash the phone (don't know how to do that or where to get the image)
6b. There's another way of reflashing the phone...
Can anyone fill me in on that?

That seems a bit more complicated than what is really needed.
Assuming that your device was a G3 before you started, you are CID unlocked and you didn't overwrite incompatible bootloaders on a G4 device by using a G3 only ROM:
Once you are in bootloader, connect your USB cable. You should see the letters USB in the lower corner of your device.
Reflash with an official AKU2 ROM (latest available from your carrier's website.)
to do this once you are in bootloader mode and see USB in the lower corner execute the rom installer.
Don't flash an AKU3 Rom until you read all the threads completely on them. Several programs that work with AKU2 do not work with AKU3 and will freeze your device - Which appears to be what you are experiencing. There is still work being done on AKU3 and they aren't for mainstream use yet. There are driver incompatibilities, database restructures and such that haven't been accounted for in some software. The most common issues are documented repeatedly in every AKU3 ROM thread.

Yes I agree with this the other option is a bit more complicated. This is much easier
@ ionutzu
Please update how the solutions above worked for ya. Zzan's solution is standard and most used along with being the easiest & should definitely work.
^^ you guys are wonderful!
Pretty much this is how it works, I couldn't find the "easy" solution anywhere, but now I figured it out.
1. Turn on phone holding camera button + power button
2. Connect via USB
3. Make sure USB is written in bottom left corner of PPC screen
4. Run an original ROM update (that is, the ones coming straight from T-Mob, I've tried it with other roms, it doesn't work)
5. It should work, you should have a fresh copy
6. I guess put your customized rom and try again....
Thanks for the help.

Yes, I've been over that, and some of the related links from that thread, but so far I still can't find the missing piece. All of the tips point to using an updater to load Wizard Love, but I still get a communication error. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
I'd also point out that while this may be my third 4th post, I'm not really new at this. I am new at having problems. I've flashed this phone probably a dozen times in the past year and have never had a problem. I've going over the sticky threads and tutorials, but what I'm missing is how I actually get wizard love to load. So far, it still does a check for the phone through activesync, then tries to run RUUGetinfo.exe and EnterBootloader.exe to which copies nk.nbf. So far the central issue seems to be establishing a connection. Since I am already in the boot loader (the red, green, blue, white screen) I need to be able to copy nk.nbf, which is what I cannot figure out. So far, I haven't found anything useful on this.

When you just plugin USB cable. Does it say USB on the left bottom of your screen? After this you should just use the RUU. Maybe it helps to uncheck allow USB connections in activesync.
Most people having problems flashing from bootloader (communication error) can succesfully flash from another XP machine. Have you tried that?
I have a stuck image on my 8125. The phone "boots" but only shows a white screen, and is unusable.
The "a2sd all" restore option mentioned in the forums doesnt work for me. I have read on several forums that I should be able to reflash the OS from the bootloader, though I cant find any instructions on how to do this
Could someone point me in the right direction for how to flash an OS VIA bootloader?
Thx
1. Get the phone to bootloader (tree color mode) - I think by soft resetting and pressing the camera button at the same time
2. Connect it to the computer (Windows XP) with a USB cable
3. You will notice "USB" written in a lower corner of the phone (this means it is connected)
4. Now you can flash your provider's ROM without any problems
I am not sure whether the bootloader flashing is possible from Windows Vista.
You must flash normally (in bootloader you cannot use either shelltools or SoftSPL - so use your provider's ROM).
Mirek
Mirek - not to be totally ignorant, but the step 4 is what I'm having problems with .... where can I find either a providers ROM, or something that I can actually use while in bootloader mode?
Thanks!
NM ... Found it!
For anyone reading this .... You can get the provider ROM for the 8125 from HTCAmerica here: http://www.htcamerica.net/support/8125/software-downloads.html
Thanks for your help!

IPL/SPL 2.08? Does that exist? Do you mean 3.08?
Are you sure your device is a G3? Or you killed it when flashing Button's ROM?
i got a wiza200 G3 IPL/SPL 1.0.6 that is locked to T-Mobile, now the problems are:
1) that i cannot access the Bootloader, i hold down the keys but it just resets and no bootloader comes on.
2) tried hard resetting it, the procedure goes just fine, but does not reset.
3) In addition to my problem the phone has a password set at the boot of windows but i do not know the password
4) when i connect the usb nothing happens(i tried all the possible solutions for this one but i think my usb slot is broken)
5) its SIM/CID locked
6) theres no way of fixing this isnt it?i have searched the whole forum for a possible CID unlock through an SD Card
but as I can see noone has found a solution about that yet..and probably never will..
Update: I managed to hard reset it and it gets in Windows now but the usb still does not work, I have established a connection with ActiveSync through Bluetooth and im trying to use WST and i do 'Enab RAPI + Unsigned Apps' and get good results:
Uploading files...
Running Cert_SPCS.cab to change Unsigned
Prompt policy...
Running EnableRAPI.cab to remove restrictions
on RAPI communications...
All Done!
You can fully use this service tool now.
Repeat procedure only after a hard-reset.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but the problem is when i try to CID Unlock i get this error:
Warning!
A device was detected but one (or both) of RAPI
Communications and Applications Policy isn't
enabled.
Use first button for that purpose and try again
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Update 2
I Fixed this by manually put EnableRapi in the windows folder of the device and running it.
I used Lokiwiz and tried to CID/SIM Unlock it, but im not sure if it worked, after each step the device rebooted just
like it said in the 'readme' file, now is there any chance to put custom ROM to the device through bluetooth?
any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance
also i have another HTC wizard with custom WM6 if that helps..but its G4
Okay, first of all, your post is somewhat confusing, but it appears you are trying to get a custom rom onto your G3, right?
You already hard reset your phone, so now to deal with the bootloader problem...
1. turn your phone off, and remove the battery just to be sure.
2. hold the camera button on your phone.
3. insert USB cable into the phone.
Now your phone should be in the bootloader mode, and you are ready to start the flashing process!
Flash to the most recent Official ROM. Then follow whatever tutorial you found to flash your phone.
Oh, and I am not sure, but I do not think you should use the bluetoth connection to do the lokiwiz stuff. Use the USB cable. Also, I would suggest you find and learn to use the Wizard Service Tool. It does more, and I think the GUI might be just right for you.
thanks for the reply, but the problem is that my usb port is damaged and i cant get it to work. i managed to unlock cid/sim through lokiwiz using bluetooth, i tried flashing the rom with bluetooth but it wouldnt work and that is normal because when you use a custom ROM installer the installer makes the device go to the RPG mode and there it loses the bluetooth connectivity, is there any other way to install the ROM?maybe with SD Card or something? I have the searched the forums but cant find a solution that actually works
I did a search myslef, and all I came up with was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366894
My only problem is this: I have never been able to sync a phone through bluetooth without first making a USB connection.
I do not want to upset you, I just want to make sure you don't give up on a possibly working phone.
i can make a connection using bluetooth and unlocked my sim/cid, now i just need a solution to flash the rom without the usb
then you will have to find someone with a G3 that is willing to do what is described in the link I posted above.
can anyone from here help me make this backup sd card?
yesterday i installed the rom of one of the above threads (win 6.5.28052) but everytime i boot up my device (when it is installed) it crashes.. constantly the same screen and i cant do anything?
i wanted to flash it to another win 6.5 rom. but i cant even turn on active sync on my phone
can anyone help me?
and fast. because i cant call and sms..
oh and: sorry for bad english
One post below is an exploit that seems to work without activesync, You could try this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5336477&postcount=379
If I`m right it should connect again after You have a new SPL onboard. Relatively new here myself...
Another method would be to flash directly from an old SD card (not a new micro with adapter).
Edit : Maybe I misunderstood "turn on active sync on my phone" : Are You trying to flash when in bootloader mode (tricolor screen) ?
i was not flashing my phone in tricolor screen. but i did saw that screen when i installed the new rom?
but how do i come in the bootloader?
EDIT: can u please explain me in steps how i have to do this? (i am not so smart in those things..)
and how do u flash with a SD card?
another EDIT: i came a little bit further. no i see the commanager screen and disabled everything, then i tryed to turn on active sync. but then it freezes I WANT TO USE MY PHONE AGAIN!
Where did you find 28052 for trinity?.
Bootloader mode push on+camera botton+soft reset.
it was an older version.. typed it wrong. it was 28014..
but do u have a clue how i can fix this?
EDIT: now if i unlock my device. i get the windows screen when it boots up and does nothing.. so i cant do even less..
Ths to Supersport:
My recommendation for Flashing is:
Make sure you have Hard SPL on your Phone. I recommend Olipro 1.20 - Click Here for More Info
Be sure your battery is at least 50% full.
Start your phone in Tri Color Screen mode. Steps below
--Unplug your phone from USB
--Hold down the Power & Camera Buttons
--While still holding them down, press the Reset Button using the Stylus
--Release the Reset Button, but continue to hold the Power/Camera buttons until you see the Tri Color Screen
--Plug in the USB cable (if asked about installing a driver, do this), You should see USB in the White Box)
Now you can Flash.

that tricolor screen says:

TRIN100
SPL-1.20.Olipro
so the spl version is good?
what to do next?
EDIT: what happens when i reset everything to factory standard?
ok. i did the steps u gave and i am flashing now..
now see what it does..
ow and btw.
how u can do dual boot on this phone? maybe i want android on it if it is possible
where can i find a good version of windows mobile 6.5? becuase the version i have now i dont like.. but the other version i tried was wrong?
Glad You found some help, I currently only have internet access at work...
What a good ROM is depends on Your liking. If You want a clean 6.5 base to install stuff Yourself and have lots of free RAM for bigger apps, check the second post of
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551424
The one my phone came with was also from xda-devs but couldn`t run iGO (nav software) because there was too little free RAM, too much preinstalled stuff running like Manila eyecandy...
So if You want a ROM with fancy today screens and other preinstalled stuff You`ll have to take a look around here, otherwise check the one above, many ppl recommend it.
Happy flashing
@flyby.
i dont like the standard skins of windows mobile 6.5 but i like the start menu and the file explorer thing,
and i used SPB Mobile before and i like that!
but what is the lightest version of windows mobile 6.5 here on xda? without that fancy touchflo etc, only the good start menu in the top and a good file explorer were u can scroll with u finger?
I've just recently gotten into different ROM's for my Sprint Touch Diamond. I am currently running Mighty ROM6. Now it flashes fine but after about a day of use I notice the phone starts acting up. Programs disappear, Opera browser stops working and I have to reflash. Is this a common flaw with the Mighty ROM6 or is it something I am doing wrong? I just don't understand how it works fine and after a day or two of use I have to reflash it. Any and all input would be great...

I'm not sure about Mighty ROM6, but issues can occur when you don't clear the device from the previously cooked rom.
2 Choices to clear device:
• flash a stock rom first before flashing
• use mtty (link found in my signature)
Regardless of choice, after flashing the selected cooked rom of choice, don't forget to hard reset your device.
Doing this takes out the variable of it being your devices fault and thus puts back the onus to the rom.
Good Luck!

Looking for you re: stock roms
as far as mtty is concern, it's a tool that clears your device. Not too newbie friendly though.
HARD RESET DEVICE:
Right after you soft reset reset (red button) simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format)

Look at the 2nd post, of edited my response there.
By the way, another trick is to flash a radio or a rom via Internal Memory Method found below:
COOKING ROMs & Radios from phone =-
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache
p.s. still looking for the pesty stock rom thread....
