[Q] I don't want to say "Bricked"..but it sure is "very uncoopertive"...HELP

Hello HDGods,

I sure hope help will be available; i've now spent hours going thru the posts and can't seem to find a working solution to my problem. Basically, my HD2 won't boot.

Story: Italian HD2 unbranded, "H3G" sim, bought 2nd hand about eight months ago. Wanted WWE so I decided I'd try my luck with a cooked rom only a few days after getting the phone. Installed HSPL, 2.08.50 Radio and LIA_ROM _Series_V1.7_23563_Regular_WWE...It worked beautifully for several months; as time went by, I installed several apps (Tomtom, quick GPS, TCPMP, tried installing manillaTV with no success, + a few more apps bundled with the ROM). A few weeks ago, I began experiencing freezes and self-reboots. Sometimes the phone would hang on the "HTC" splashscreen and would require a batt-out to reboot.

I figured some apps had started to conflict and the little HD2 that could had become somewhat bloated so last week, I decided it was time for a flash overhaul...that's when it all went down the crapper...

Now:

-I am able to access bootloader, hard reset, flash radios and roms, no problem. It just wont boot afterwards.

-I tried task 29 and MTTY between flashes, no improvement.

-I tried several cooked roms and their recommended radios, as well as HTC roms, nothing will boot.

-I have had "Invalid Vendor ID" and the dreaded 0002802 error messages when trying to flash HTC roms that were not region appropriate.

-I tried reverting back to factory rom and 1.42 SPL by flashing the original [ITA] rom thru a freshly formatted 2gb SD card (leoimg.nbh), it gave me an "Update successful", the device booted, got me thru the initial setup screens then immediately froze when it got to the "home" screen. Soft reset got me back to square 1; hanging on the "HTC" whitescreen, with the RGB data being displayed, but going nowhere passed that.

Everytime I flash something, whether it'd be thru USB or SD, it never "stalls" during the flashing process, the changes are always reflected in the RGB data being displayed, yet, i'm still going nowhere.

My now-too-familiar bootloader is displaying

PB81100 HX-BC

SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE

0x05

CotullaHSPL 0x40

...and the toggle between Serial and USB is instantaneous when I connect/disconnect the cable...

please don't tell me I have a rainbow-screened paper-weight...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nixx911:
Little Update,

re-flashed with original ROM from SD this morning except i removed the SIM. It booted perfectly, got passed the setup screens and NO FREEZE. It connects to WiFi, everthing seems to work, all seems well. I shut down and put the SIM back in and, NO BOOT, stuck on splash screen with RGB...

My network is "3", so HSDPA, I was wondering if this requires specific radios?

I'll keep testing...with different SIMs and radios...

i'm beginning to think this might all be related to SIM failure...we'll see...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airborne Aircrew:
It definitely seems to be hardware related since you have tried so many different combinations of ROM and Radio. The SIM thing narrows it down I think... I'd try other SIMs...

Love the way you titled the thread, "un-cooperative"... :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ASCIIker:
how about those battery pins? take a look at them and make sure they aren't bent and/or misaligned. fiddling with the sim forces you to fiddle with the battery and that may have caused the pins to align better, until you slipped the sim back in.

only reason i'm saying so is that i've read some threads about boot up and charging problems that were caused by bent battery pins.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nixx911:
Unfortunately, i think i've run out of options...the only one I didn't try being the so called "goldcard"; is worth the try at this point or, as I read, HSPL replaces the gold card process?

If it's worth it, how would one go about getting this tested?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-ThGraf:
If you can access to the bootloader your device is not bricked !

So..

You must install the lastest HSPL. If you have the lastest, re flash this one !
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] iphonepimp:
I was just wondering...

If I replace my build prop from my e10a with an e10i build.prop and then update to 2.1 will I be able to re-edit the build.prop in 2.1 back to an e10a version so I can get 3G?

sorry for the mouthful lol

4 results came through in search for this question but none are what i am looking for.

I have the original T-Mobile Dash(not 3g) and want to know if a 6.5 ROM can be loaded on it? I tried running the spl and hspl but neither worked. If you know please link a helpful thread or response here. Thanks
[Dash 3G, Snap General] Telyx:
I flashed my "classic" Dash with one of the older versions of the ROM in this thread.

Worked fine. I don't think I had to use a separate SPL/hardSPL--just flashed the ROM itself.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] drkoolguy:
I've tried several winmo and android combo builds and have no problem with them (outside the norm) but for some reason after a few days of use, all the builds eventually SOD consistantly! some last 2 days, some last 5 days or more stable and perfect, but then out of no where it wants to SOD after 5-10 mins of booting android.

anyone know a fix or work around for this?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] drkoolguy:
i just found a workaround for it. if you delete the data.img and let it recreate a new one. sofar its been 20 min without a SoD! ^^

however i don't want to have to do this every few days. (although all my apps where saved in a folder and reinstalled with little effort)

anyone know why this works so i can understand it a little more?

[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
My HD2 doesn't turn on, doesn't go into boot loader, and cant soft reset. Can I officially say i bricked my HD2? And i cant even get it replaced because the camera is somehow cracked, and that supposedly "voids" the warranty.
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
And Im quite sure you need a JTAG to fix it, correct?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
if it was a 51 radio brick, then yea, JTAG is it.
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
actually, it wasnt a 51. radio brick. I installed the Eugenia Rom through CustomUU while my phone was connected, it installed fine, and then it wouldn't turn on?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
wont turn on at all? nothing? black screen? no charge light?

check the battery pins.
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
Nope, nothing at all. And by checking the battery pins, what should i be looking at?
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
just to see theyre all in a nice neat line, two one two, none bent up/down. it happens a lot.

other than a 51 radio (or 2.04.50 and 2.05.50 radios), battery pins or a discharged battery are the only reason i can think that would cause complete dead phone.
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
hm, I think I'm on to something here. When i plug my phone into my computer, it installs a driver. I forgot what its called, but that's all it installs. I cant access the phones files, but i thought i would let you know, maybe it could help me in the long run.
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
qualcomm? yea, the radio bricks show up as a qualcomm device.

try leaving the battery out for a while, (half hour) then plug in usb (wall charger, not pc) and then put the battery back in. this will stop the phone trying to run on like it normally does when you apply power when the battery is in (thus draining even the dregs of power, possibly affecting the charge circuits ability to start charging, , not very common, but not unheard of either), and with a bit of luck the charge light will appear and all will be well.

gotta go, 3am

good luck.
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
Thank you so much man,I'll try... ill get back to you about it tomorrow.
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
Erggg, nope, it didnt work =( Thanks for your time, and thank you for trying to help.
[HD2 General] GLO:
how old is it?

is it warm on the back bottom part of the phone?

Put it in the fridge for 15mins, then try to boot up.

Also see if you can try and put your battery in some one elses HD2 or charge your battery in their phone.

Its pretty hard to kill your HD2.

(i just dropped my HD2 in for a service/repair as my motherboard/cpu was overheating.- had to flash stock rom and spl back though)
[HD2 General] ericwalsh:
I got it two weeks ago Its not warm, but ill try it in the fridge...... and I just did that a couple hours ago, we switched battery's and still no luck.

It worked for me...
[HD2 General] gregzeng:
Read ALL the earlier replies. Mine seems "cracked": battery won't charge in phone, via USB cables (2 cables, 2 batteries - one new & fully charged, two USB power souurces, including a car's 12v DC source).

Did all the above hard & soft resets, etc. Nothing works. Phoned HTC AUSTRALIA - MUST send it hundreds of miles (or kms) away to the original Telstra dealer, since HTC does not allow any other type of warranty claim in Australia.

On the phone's pins that contact the battery - they are flexible: up, down, in & out. Being "in-line" does not mean they work.

Not sure why the hardware crashed. Have not upgrade ROM or Android. Won't recharge the battery in-phone with SIM, micro-SD in nor out of the phone.

Wanting for a separate external battery charger (only a few $$) from eBay. Might take the phone to a dealer, and see if they can get it to recharge the battery via the USB cable.

nope, didnt work :(

Hello, i have a Korean Galaxy S, Anycall SHW-m110s,

using steps I found in this forum I upgraded it to froyo firmware DI29, using odin.

The build seems to be an incomplete build and it is quite laggy and buggy. I would like to restore and revert back to the original build, android 2.1 eclair, ECLAIR.DI03, however I'm having trouble finding out how to do that.

If anyone would be so kind as to instruct me how to do this, or instruct me as to where I might be able to find out how to do this, I would be so very appreciative.

Thank you for your time.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technecium:
I assume you flashed di29 with odin. To go back you would flash di03 with odin the exact same way. If you do not have the rom you can search for "M110S-NPS-IMAGE-REV03-DI03-1545-USER.tar" and I am sure you will find it on numerous sites. After flashing di03 you will likely have to go into recovery mode and wipe fs and cache.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salmanslick:
U risk bricking ur phone if u revert to eclair from froyo.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Technecium:
Of course there is always a risk but I have flashed the between dg14, di03 and di29 on an shw-m110s numerous times without any issues.

From my personal experience, as long as you are only flashing the PDA portion I wouldn't worry too much.

You are obviously using a different model. You should ask others who use a similar model.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] usmustrust:
Has anyone figured out how to do this yet? Is there another thread dealing with it?

Baseband Version

m110s.sj26.1950.st

Kernel Version

2.6.32.9

Build Number

Froyo.sk05

I would like to revert it to ECLAIR also. I'm desperate and flash doesn't work!

I hope someone will chime in in response with a link to help out.

Thanks.

We had a long discussion about the problem. She lso saw the problem herself by using her phone with an O2 and then an Orange SIM. It worked fine on O2 and failed on Orange!

Had another call from Orange 2nd level support today.

Apparently they won't look at the problem because it involves a third-party application! Well of course it does - I told them it does!

They suggest that I contact Google and ask them to look at the problem - what the h**; are they going to do. It isn't THEIR problem since the application works fine on most (all?) other network and on WiFi.

Anyone here have any clout with either Orange or Google care to take this further cos I don't really know where to go next.
