Is my phone fried?

I posted a question last week and I was installing the ROM and windows crashed. My phone now has the bootloader screen (colored screen with USB in the corner). I had already upgraded to 2.17 which was fine. Any thoughts?

If you can still access the bootloader you have not fried your phone. Get it into bootloader - plug in your USB and connect to your PC and run the ROM upgrade again. If it fails again check the ROM is a good version ( re-download if your not sure) Failing that, do the process on a different PC.
BTW you do not need to run Activestink on the PC.
Best of luck :lol:

flash interupted

was flashing and some one caused a communication error- . tried to recovery but was unsuccessful, now iall i see is run, green, blue, and white. is this what you called bricked. what can i do???

No, it is not bricked, with a bricked Wizard you can't either charge or power on it.
Just get another computer with ActiveSync installed (preferably a Notebook computer), and try RUU again.
And MAKE SURE you have already CID-unlock (NOTE: CID unlock is NOT SIM unlock) before flashing custom ROMs, otherwise follow the stickies to flash the Button's ROM and unlock it before proceed.

help

i´ve also my 9100 with 3 colors , but when i connect to activesync they don´t recognize it.

Activesync doesn't work in Bootloaders (multi color screen),but you can flash the phone in Bootloaders mode.While in Bootloaders (Multi color screen),hook your phone with pc via usb cable and watch small usb appear at the bottom of the Bootloaders mode,it confirms connectivity with pc and run the RUU in the Rom ,it'll start to flash. Let it complete and phone will reboot and start to work normal.

I´ve tried several times to run the RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1 but the application says that there isn´t no phone connected.
what i´m i doing wrong?
thx

Need assistance please

Hi,
I have a Rhodium and so far I have successfully flashed a lot of Roms untill today...
I am trying to flash another Rom via ActiveSync, so I have connected my phone to my PC, than run the CustomRuu.exe like always, but I am stuck at 0%.
I decided to flash using the SDCard and renamed the ruu_signed.nbh to RHODIMG.nbh and than I´ve enter in the BootLoader Mode, the device tries to load the Rom, but I´ve got a white screen saying "loading..." and stays like this forever.
I cannot even HardSPL the device. I run the Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3.exe but i can not get the device properly synced.
I though I had an internal memory problem so I´ve formated it using a new tool found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...12&postcount=1.
But now I´ve lost everything and I can not flash any Rom with activesync, always the same problem, stuck at 0% and then the message - "Error [276] : update error.", and if I flash from SDcard a white screen saying "loading..." and stays like this forever.
EDIT:
Can not HardSPL automatic flash, because could not get the device properly synced.
Can not HardSPL with Manual flash, stuck at 0% and then the message - "Error [276] : update error.#
Any help please.
Thanks

Then I assume you already have hard-spl on your device installed. So trying to install it again will fail.
*Go into BootLoader Mode (do a Soft Reset while holding the "volume down" key on the left side of the device. Keep holding the "volume down" key until you see tricolour screen which is the bootloader mode, then release it) and verify the screen shows 0.85.OliNex, which is the HardSPL version* Is this the hard-spl version that you have?
You didn't mention which rom you tryed to flash. Did you try other roms?

Thanks for your reply,
Yes , you are right I have already HardSPL installed - SPL-0.85.0linex.
I have tried several Roms even the Rhodium stock Rom. If I flash via activesync I get stuck at 0% and if I flash from the SDCard (RHODIMG.nbh) I get a white screen saying "loading...." with no action.
This is strange as I´ve flash so many roms so far

Have you reset both your device and computer before connecting?

Just leave it in Bootloader mode and connect it to your computer and then try flashing.
As long as you put the device in bootloader mode, you do not have to get it to sync. I've done this many times when a flash didn't go right for some reason (like I forgot something when I cooked it ).

I did both things with no luck.
I have put the device in bootloader mode connected to the computer then I´ve run the customRUU.exe but I am always stuck at 0%
This is the info I have in the tricolor screen:
RHOD100 32M SS-BC
SPL-0.85.0linex
MicroP(LED) 0x0A
MicroP(KEY) 0x04
TURBO HW/TURBO SW
TP MFG DATA
501,529 794,848
797,208 217,213
210,853 Calibrated
I will put the device in the AC power all night to see if this is a battery issue.
Thanks

I had the same thought and I have used a different cable but the results are the same.

just my 2 cents i have done it before try to uninstall the driver from computer when you are in tri-color mode in the device manager then unplug the usb and replug in the same usb port if doesnt work try other usb port

I would try this first as posted by jeanrivera.
Also maybe you're customruu is somehow broken? Try downloading a new one. Also I don't know if it helps but when you flash via customruu do you have the image named ruu_signed.nbh? I don't know if it matters what kind of name it has, but it's just a thought

[Q] Possibly bricked Trinity, help please!!!

Hello!
I have this problem:
I've installed WM6.5 on my Trinity, and it worked well, but today I wanted to try WM6.1 (0.4.9.0 digital) also. The following happened:
Everything worked fine, but at 54% flashing my brother lifted the phone, possibly it lost the USB-contact, because the flasing stopped with an error message (unfortunately can't remember the error number). Since then if I try to flash it with WM6.1 or WM6.5, after 1% the phone resets itself, and the RUU gives a 270 error.
I have the original WM5 ROM also, but if I try installing it, after "Verifying information on your PDA Phone" screen I get a connection error 260.
What can I do???

After the phone resets itself, I can see the HTC logo, and the red letters and numbers, but that's all.

If I try HardSPL, I also get a 260 error.

Can you enter bootloader manualy?
If you can than see SERIAL change to USB when connected to PC it should be OK.

if you have a SD card, you can also try to flash "manualy".
- put your RUU... NBH at the root of the card,
- rename it trinimg.nbh,
- reinsert the card in the phone,
- enter in bootloader (power+cam+reset)
you will have a grey screen asking to push "power", do it and that's it.
if USB is well working, maybe you just need to reflash the hardspooler.

Thank you for your replies.
Fortunately I solved the problem.
I did the following:
1. To be sure, do all the stuff on a Windows XP machine
2. DISABLE "Allow USB Connection" in Active Sync so you see a small red X symbol next to the Active Sync symbol
3. Start the device into Bootloader mode (Cam+Power+Reset) and connect the device to your PC and make sure USB is written on the bottom of your screen (NOT Serial!)
4. Download splxploit (http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...0&d=1180043588) and execute unlock on your PC
5. Follow the instructions
6. Download HardSPL (http://forum.xda-developers.com/atta...8&d=1185364317) and follow the instructions
7. Finally (to be sure) restart into Bootloader mode and check if SPL is showing "SPL-1.30.Olipro) - if this is the case you've done it !
8. Flash your preferred ROM via miniSD or USB connection

I m glad you solved this. Every day another new way of solving the flash problems.

Hi to All guys
i've got a trinity from my work and it has a custom rom.
I wanted to changed the rom so i download a wm 6.5 and erase the trinity with mtty. After that i try to install the rom with he RUUUupdate, but it get error 270.
Only in that moment i read on the bootloader and see that it haven't olipro or another HARDSPL installed.
So i looked for a solution and i try the unbrick with the splxploit. I did it and i get olipro on the bootloader, but i don't know how go on with install, if i use the exe i get 260 connection error.
Can you help me?

[PROBLEM] Bricked my Blackstone

Hi All.
I've had my flashed severtal times with the new ROM and never had any problems with it (apart from ROM itself not being perfect).
Yesterday I've cooked myself a plain ROM and flashed phone with it. Flash took less than a minute and my phone isn't starting any more. I've checked NBH file and it's only 6 MB!
At the moment all I can do it to is to try to turn it on, it stops on the 'Smart Mobility' screen with red info on the bottom. Info reads:
R 1.14.25.24
G 52.64.25.34U
D 1.59.48753
When I start my phone with Vol Down button pressed it goes to tricolor and when I continue to hold Vol Down I get white screen with message: Loading: No Image File! showing on the screen briefly and back to tricolor.
No problem you say - flash another ROM. But at the moment my phone doesn't connect to my PC. Cable tested with another HTC - works. When I connect it I get USB on the screen but Flashing utility doesn't detect the phone.
When I try to Hard Reset the phone it just starts normally. So Vol Up + Vol Down + Power doesn't work at all. All I have is smart mobility and tricolor.
Info from Tricolor:
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.56.OliNex
MicroP-Blackstone (LED) v6
and on the bottom either Serial or USB.
Question is:
is there anything I can do to revive my phone? Is there any way to flash it without USB connection? If yes, how do I do it?
Thanks in advance,

There is a way of flashing from SD card if you have HSPL (you do... OliNex).
Please do some search...

if it displays usb in tricolor you can flash a rom with CustomRUU from there. its not bricked

Put BLACIMG.nbh on the root of your SD card and enter bootloader mode, it'll detect it and ask if you want to flash it - press power button to confirm.

Dont connect your phone to your computer.
Hold down the Volume down button and hit the power button.
Your entering the tricolor boot screen and at the bottom the word "Serial".
Now connect you phone to your computer with te USB cable the word serial disappear and now it says USB.
Now you can normally flash/update your phone.

Thank for all your answers.
Problem still lasts, tried everything I could, including trying another computer. I've tried SD card flashing but couldn't get past tricolor. Everytime I tried all I got was No image file! and nothing.
In desperate act of dying I've went to my neighbour and borrowed his old Win XP laptop and it worked... Currently flashing new ROM to it.
What I cannot understand is why my computer (iMac running Windows on parralels), my laptop (Win 7) and my second laptop (Win Vista) couldn't detect the phone. I've succesfully flashed it before using all three machines, including virtualized Win 7 on my mac :/
Any ideas why it stopped working? I'll try to connect it again when ROM will be fully flashed and let you know.
Thanks for your help anyway.
Cheers,

Why don't you try shipped ROM, it may do the trick.
Get the original shipped ROM from HTC site or from XDA site.
Extract the content in some directory
Rename ruu_signed.nbh to BLACIMG.nbh and copy it on root folder of your SD card.
Now start your phone holding Vol down button.
Fingers crossed to to start flashing

Hi again.
I can confirm that due to flashing my phone with that odd 6MB ROM I could not connect it to any computer running Windows Vista or Windows 7. Strangely enough - it worked with Windows XP Professional. I have managed to flash my phone again on it using custom ROM from this forum.
Cheers,
