I have been reading the forum too much, I think there are some users that can help with doctest problem on Elf/Elfin. I have:

IPL: 3.14.cmon

SPL: 2.28.cmon

When I try to load a rom by RUU I get "INVALID MODEL ID", I have tried a lot of roms. I think it's because my cid is corrupted and also the area where model id is saved. User cmonex explain how to fix MODEL ID in HTC Athena: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=387454&highlight=mtty&page=4 but I don't know if I can use that way. I think there are only a little amount of solutions for Elf/Elfin problems, need Seniors and/or Administrators help here.

I'm looking for a WM device to make a Gold Card, I really hope unbrick my Touch. If somebody knows if gold card will help me, or what can I do?, post here, send me PM or an e-mail. Thanks.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cmonex:
hi, tough problem but possibly solvable, I saw your PM, and replied to it.

the athena solution is athena specific though. elf needs different bin file and different way to flash it
[Touch GSM ROM Development] joserobertogg:
I'm thinking about two options:

1 restore MODEL ID and CID block from a .bin

2 go back to USPL (2.20 by pof), that way I can flash unbricker rom because USPL doesn't check MODEL ID. I don't know how to create a .bin file to use with lnbs or ls command. Maybe I can use .nbh or .nb???

About dead elf(in)

Giving an advice: People that had problems when flashing SPL/IPL, I think is the end of their devices (maybe jtagging but is difficult to get adecuate cable, know right contacts and get adecuate dump, and other kind of dirty jobs jeje). When flashing SPL/IPL, phone is alive because RAM is acting, but if there is a bad flash, then when phone shut down, you know ---> damn!!!. I recommend be very careful with this point, all other problems maybe has solutions.
[Touch GSM ROM Development] cmonex:
it's actually unlikely that the spl would flash in a bad way, htc has some checks in place to avoid that

but of course you never know :)

my philosophy is as long as the device will boot to bootloader it can be unbricked (assuming no serious hardware fault, for example at least USB connection and/or SD slot have to be accessible)

PS: replying to your PM in a bit :)

@mister-gsm

First you need to be more specific. Tell about if when you turn on your dev, you get bootloader, or splash and then reboot or power off automatically. You should search an original rom with that characteristics (DEVICE ID: ELF010000, CID ID: HTC__002). You also can try "unbricker rom": http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=446242 . Probably you will need use gold card: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_GoldCard or http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=437996 .
[Touch GSM ROM Development] mister-gsm:
tnx joserobertogg

my device is dead, turns on only in bootmode with camera + power-on button.

or I total reset, after initial message the device stops on operator logo "ORANGE" and does not go forward :confused:
[Touch GSM ROM Development] joserobertogg:
@mister-gsm

Well, as I said, if you don't find original rom, try with unbricker rom; if not, try with gold card method. Most probably with gold card you will be able to solve your problem.

Hello i have a major problem with my elfin. i tried to upgrade it to the onyx rom

yesterday and it stopped half way through and now its stuck on bootloader. when i turn it on goes straight in to bootloader .

1)i tried the ruu unbricker rom

and it said error 294 invalid vendor id

2)i tried doing a new shipped rom and it said error 244 invalid model id

3)i tried hard spl and it said error 270

i cant go past bootloader so i cant open active sync

4)i tried usb sniffer and did nt work

5)i tried matty did not work

6)i tried flash utility and it did nt work

7)i tried flashing the onyx rom again

8) i tried soft rest nothing worked

none of these worked my elfin is stuck

all that i have on my phone is the bootloader that says

ipl 2.11.1002 and spl 2.20.0000 and usb at the bottom.

and i cant do anything.

HTC Fuze bricked

I think i bricked theHTC fuze that i bought yesterday :( I tried to do the Hard SPL but i was getting an error message, error 244 invalid model ID so i used a program to change the .nbh (a radio file) file so it bypassed the error message. I even got a message that the process was successfully finished but it turned out not to be true because the screen went black and now i cant turn it on, and i cant even get it into the bootloader mode. If i could at least get it into to tricolor screen i would be able to flash back the original radio and that would solve the problem because ive already done it a few times. Please let me know if there is a chance for it to be fixed.

What was my mistake?

Before I upgraded, I've dumped my ROM. using the utilities as mentioned here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_HowtoDumpRom

I made two backup :

* One backup with the OS and ExtROM only (for others to use)

* And another backup with everything included (for yourself only, for warranty or selling purposes).

After that, seems everything to be Okay, and then I did as mentioned in this post : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=445666

and then I flash Onyx Ultimate 4.8. And, I did it!!!

But then, when the device reboot, I saw a thin horisontal line on the top of the LCD. As I worried about my device, then I decided to go back to original ROM.

I did again this : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=445666

And I overwrite the .nbh file with the Complete ROM that I have dumped before.

Everything seems to be Okay, it uploaded 100%, then the disaster happened !!!!

The device went off, and it never get on again. Until now. I've tried many ways to make it On :

1. Remove the battery, and then plug it again, turn the power ON, and it still go off.

2. Remove the battery, plug in charger with no battery, try to power ON, still off.

3 Remove the battery, plug in the charger with no battery, push the camera button and reset button on the same time, nothing happened.

Please help me, I really frustated here :( What was my activity that could cause a damage to my Elf?

I've tried a repair man and he said that there's no J-Tag to turn on my P3450, I must change the machine to the new one.

Hi,

I'm not trying to flash my rom or do anything fancy, just trying to use my Elf as a compact mobile calendar basically.

But recently if I switch it off, when I switch it on again, I just get the blue Windows Mobile screen.

I've tried to enter 'bootloader' following the instructions here (camera + stylus-reset) while the Elf is on and working, I get the Blue screen then it reboots and goes back into working mode again.

The problem only happens if I turn the thing off and then want to turn it on again. So long as it's on, it's fine. When it's off, even hard-reset doesn't work (stylus + red/green buttons) - just the screen goes black, then I get that blue screen again.

Only way to turn it off when I get that is to take the battery out.

Help please???

1. Try to find OFFICIAL ROM.

2. Get the Hybrid Kitchen and pictorial from ayyu3m and install it in drive C: (main drive where ur OS Installed)

3. follow the step to COOK

4. when finished, u will have a STRIPPED OFFICIAL ROM without IPL n SPL inside. so.. u can Flash it to ur HARD SPL-ed device.

5. do a HARD RESET when it comes to the ALIGN SCREEN and then let it boot and finished the customisation.

6. there.. u can flash any WM6.5 ROM again.

just don't forget to do a Hard Reset after every flashing process.
