Hello everybody,
I have a problem with my Touch. A couple of days a go my phone was empty, when I tried to power it up again and start it, but then it hanged in the first screen (the T-mobile screen for my phone). I read a lot on this forum, but I'm a newbie so it's hard for me to find the good solution. I could get the phone in the bootloader ( triple color screen), but it doesn't give the RUU letters in the right corner. If I connect the phone threw usb to my computer, it doesn't give me anything. Active sync doesn't go green. I tried the following things,
1. Go in the bootloader (this works!)
2. Disable the USB connection in active sync
3. Start an USB-sniffer (didn't find my phone)
4. Tried to use MTTY (gives me the error, can't open USB connection, something like this)
5. Tried to flash a rom while in bootloader screen, but the flashing utility can't connect to my phone.
So the main problem is that the phone can't connect to the computer, what do I have to do, to put a new rom on my phone, so I can start the damn thing again??? Please help
Thanks
have you tried hard reset ?
still nothing
I also tried hard reset, still hangs in the first screen, there's also a new problem. I can't put it one, and when I put in the adapter (to charge) it give a red light (constant), what to do, what to do?
no tips?
nobody has any solutions?

I wuz flashing it went to 99% and gave me an error so I reset and it wuz still stuck so I took out the battery and now it won't do anything when I plug it into the pc it says unrecognized usb device is there anyway to get the pc to recognize it so I can fix it any help is appreciated
bootloader
Put it into the bootloader, the PC wont recognize the device until you flash it again, but you should be able to fix it. Get into the bootloader by pressing the power key and the voice commander button (looks like an old tape) at the same time and while holding, press the soft reset button on the bottom. This should put you into the bootloader mode, (the backlight does not light up, it just says bootloader and USB or SERIAL in faint writing depending if you have it attached to your PC)
invoking boot loader
Yes...I had a similar issue yesterday and thought to use the button sequence to force the bootloader. The other thing I had to do was get a flashlight and note the bootloader version of 2.05. I then ran the latest update tool from one of the kitchens and that allowed me to load the image of choice that I placed in the same folder.
how did you do it?
I used UNI_bootloader EXIT.exe to get mine back. same situation, v2.05 bootloader, unplugged at 99%. stuck at v2.05. run the exe, and its fine.
Sadly enough i need to post this.. i have both the 6800 and the 6700, i did the same thing twice ... starting with the 6800, had no problem fixing that one, but the 6700 for some reason after a stock rom flash that didnt take completely its stuck saying Serial (top), 1.00 (bottom) , tried uni_bootloader, tried reflashing, for some reason it cannot catch the device, however, the drivers are loaded just fine, that much i know it worked before. any ideas on how to kick start this thing ( i have no memory card at all in it , havent been able to find a miniSD around here anywhere ). Any ideas would greatly help. Thanks in advance.
I got an HTC/Cingular 8125 from my wife's boss. She bought it back when it came out a couple years ago and stopped using it when she got a newer phone. Theres a password on it that she says she can't remember that blocks all access to the phone. I've tried hard resetting the phone to clear all the memory and to erase the password, but everytime I do, I get stuck in a screen that has a red, green, blue and white bar that are horizontal with the text in white and yellow that says "IPL 1.08" "SPL 1.08"
How do I get past this? How do I successfully hard reset it so that I can erase all the information on it so that I can use this phone since mine is currently broken?
Any and all help will be appreciated.
OK MEN
You need to download your original ROM from your carrier web page.
And in this mode (Bootloaders RGB screen) upgrade your device.
See on wiki there are many original ROMS.
But remember to not use so much your phone in this mode cause if the batt is less than 50% it wont upgrade.... remember that men!!!
and do your upgrade the soon as posible
hope it works for you.
Everytime I plug the device into my computer via USB cable, Windows asks me to type in the password before I can access the device. Is this going to cause problems when upgrading the ROM?

No just hold the camera and then soft-reset and youll be in the bootloader from here you can flash your device.
I have a problem with my device.I thought maybe someone could help me.
The problem is that the device stuck at the boot screen (shown in screen) and I can't install windows or something,because when i turn the bootloader mode it's shows that it's connected to the pc,but it's actually not,PC not even shows that the device is connected.
I have second battery,but that doesn't changes anything..
Could someone please help me?
More info please!
What Operation System is running your PC?
Is it connected to a "powered" USB (like on the back of your PC)
As far as i can see you have a G4 phone, patched with an .Olip.
You should _only_ flash it with G4-aware ROMs!!!
Windows 7
I think i tried on xp to..
tried to the front ant back to.
Ah
You tried it with XP too?
The colored boot state doesn't say anything.
It's just saying that RUU put your device into this state.
With XP this state would soon turn into an upload screen.
"tried to the front ant back to."
Yes, the front USB may or may not have enough power
So let's try XP and backside USB!
For me it sometimes worked after rebooting XP.
ok,I will try on xp and on the USB in the back,and I tell you the results.
So I have tried to install on xp,but it can't verify the device,like it's not connected,it even won't make a sound that it's connected.Any suggestions?
Could anyone help me?
Let us know what ROM you’re trying to install, and let us know if you’re putting the phone in boot loader mode yourself, or if the phone boots and goes to the boot loader on its own, as this can sometimes cause a connection problem.
Well I installed a ROM earlier,when i turn on the phone i get the screen in the pick and nothing else,if I go to bootloader mode it won't connect to the pc.I have no idea what to do,please help.
Try this.
1. Download “Wizard Love ROM”.
2. Press the soft reset button, then press and hold the camera key, you shouldn’t see any splash screens, it should go straight to the boot loader, if not try again.
3. Connect the phone to the PC, you will see “USB” in the lower left corner, if not repeat step two.
4. Now flash the Wizard Love ROM.
Hope that helps
That's the point.I know how to enter to bootloader and all that,but when i do,it won't connect to the pc.
i can't believe it.It just start working again.by it self.And booting normaly.But i'm still interested why he was stuck..
Hello,
I tried to update the radio and the SPL version on my Tattoo. Everything went fine until I had to reboot my phone. It shut down alright, but it never powered on again.
These are the following problems I am having with my Tattoo at the moment:
Cannot power on phone.
Cannot boot into recovery mode.
Cannot boot into FastBoot.
When I connect it to my computer via USB, nothing happens.
The only thing that it's responding to is when I connect my it to my charger.
Does anyone have a solution or is my phone dead forever?
Thanks ahead!
bump? anyone?
Send it back to HTC. If anyone can do anything about it they can. There's nothing else you can do. Sorry
boo.. that sucks..
Well, thanks anyway
Ehm, I don't want to post a New Thread so I'm gonna ask here:
Does anyone have the pinout for the Tattoo?
Take a look at this. I guess they fix such things (but you never know if they just are after your money. http://www.ort-jtag.com/index.php
Yeah I saw that already. Also, there is a file name Tattoo Jtag on their website in the Support section. However, to access that section you have to enter your products serial number (which is I'm guessing the phone's serial number). I have tried several serial numbers (including mine) and all of them were 'invalid' so I never checked the files out.
Also, they only have one thing in the shop which is a kit and it costs $330 so no thanks
I have a similar problem, I would like to share my knowledge although I must be completely out of way.
My experience is based on the BeagleBoard and Angstrom so I really don't know the HTC HW and Android at all...
- The device boots from an xloader that instructs the device how to proceed with the boot
- the bootloader takes place (great u-boot in the beagleboard ?? in the HTC phone) the bootloader allows for ROM or kernel+rootfs flashing and much more
- now the kernel is loaded.....
User mode applications do not allow to have access to the memory area where xloader and u-boot lie so they should be safe all the time to allow for device reflashing.
So we should have access to the device via bootloader anytime if we knew how... maybe somebody can help us further.

Same here...Exact same issue...No Recovery mode...No USB Connectivity, Screen turns on but is blank, alhough I did see Tattoo popping up initially but not any more...All I can see is the LCD back light turns on...Battery does charge...Also when I try to enter Recovery mode screen keeps blinking as if it is trying to restart again and again...Someone help
similar problem here, but i get absolutely no response from the phone, it doesn't even recognize the charger. do i just throw it away and buy a decent one or is there a solution?
Sparky the only way for now to fix that click is to bring it to some service point that have that ort jtag, because only way to fix that is to writte new boot sector on phone . Im sure that i know at least 2 services that have ort jtag in Novi Sad . Look for marvel *Miroslav in Ns, or send me private message
same thing happened to me
just this morning, and in desperation I tried hard to remove the batt cover (prob pressed some of buttons, I felt a jerk and ho it was back in amon ra`s recovery, nect time I just removed the battery waited for 30 secs, then press off&home and hold it till recovery came back) but for good half hour NO REACTIONS , ABSOLUTE BRICK, nothing when I put the usb in PC or in socket, dead screen, no sounds and no reaction to ANY combination of keypress. I guess you could call me lucky (in last few days I flashed at least 3 versions of froyo roms, this afternoon I bought =8GB class4 Kingston, formated it in PC FAT32 default size, copied EVE. from my 2gig rom then just turned it down (yes I am brave) and put the 8gig in tattoo, it works like a charm (finger crossed it will continue)
So is there an available Jtag for the Tattoo yet?
I'm in the same situation. No recovery no fast boot, Damm!
I`ve update psfreedom with psgroove_hermes_v4 zip file then my tattoo reboot and now I only get the Tatto title screen but nothing happends.
Somebody have clue to give back life my phone.
Thanks!
if you can get to the title screen, that means you can connect it to your pc via USB and recover from a backup (I hope you made one)

hi all i bought defy about a year ago as a second phone from ebay with cm7 installed.last week i purchase another phone and give my 7 years old daughter. however i reset everything and phone turn old version blur mod then stuck on m logo i download rom and sort the problem.
real problem starts now i try to install cm 9 download all required files wiped the phone and install the rom however it didn't restart stuck on black screen and only white led when connected with usb also didn't connect or recognized by rds lite.I found tread battery wake up from i think was ''mggrager'' or something else finally rds recognized the phone and install another sbf but still stays same as black screen and white.i read so many threats on this side or others and each i installed custom roms without clearing cache
battery replaced with replacement battery also original
all drivers installed
it doesn't respond any buttons or usb connection
rds only with battery jump
please help what to do
I'm having the same problem as you are, i believe... I had cm11 (or 10, not sure) installed for about a month now (back in december) .... Went on a trip, and when coming back my phone battery ran out at the airport... I take my phone home, not really giving it much importance, and i noticed it would never charge and/or turn on, and that when I connect it to the pc, nothing happened other than the white led coming on.. RSD won't recognized it...
So i found out i had to charge the battery manually, and used a Universal Charger... Still, no recognition by RSD Lite...
Finally, i found a way:
1. Open RSDLite
2. Connect phone (no battery on it)
3. While holding Power + Vol Up, put the battery in
4. RSD will recognize your phone!
Problem is, it recognizes my MB525 as "S Flash OMAP0360"
And when i try to flash a .sbf i used previously to recover my phone (had bricked it by trying to change ROMs in a sloppy manner), it seems to flash smoothly, but when it's going to reboot the phone, the progress goes up to 100% and then asks me to reboot it manually.. I read somewhere that to fix that i should take the battery out, disconnect the phone, put it back in, and make RSD recognize it like i mentioned before...... and after RSDLite says flashing is PASSED, the phone still won't turn on... I have tried at least three times and gotten the same result... Help?
I don't know if i should make a thread of my own.. i think we have the same problem, and i REALLY need my phone back.. so i guess we could just help each other fixing it somehow....
The SBF i am using (because it helped me save my phone before) is:
JORLA_U3_3.4.2_107-9_SIGNED_USAJORDMR1B25TIGCOLA01E.0R_JORLAFROTIGCOLA_P009_A002_M010_HWp3_WIG146037_Service1FF.sbf
EDIT: Also, i read somewhere that when all you get is the white led (when connecting to PC) it means that your battery is not charged enough for flashing.. ?
i already tried several times this method however no luck i am really not sure what to do any more i think only option try to find latest rom or first rom then try again if any luck will update and give the links
