Few days ago my Wizard died all of a sudden. When turned on it only gets to the point when it shows "HTC smart mobility" and stays there. So not even to the screen with IPL, SPL. I tried soft/hard resetting, playing with battery but it was all no go, same.
I can get to the red-green-blue bootloader screen however, shows IPL 3.08, SPL 3.08. If i connect via USB cable to computer, bootloader screen shows "USB" on bottom. The ROM on the device was TNT's (not sure which version), Windows Mobile 6.1. It worked for ages without any problems with this ROM before this.
ActiveSync does not recognise Wizard at all, I cannot establish connection and therefore downgrade/upgrade the ROM becouse upgrade programs (for exmaple with ROM got originally with the device) say they cannot contact the device.
What are my options, please help.
hy
in my opinion , it is normal for active sync to not recognize your phone , because it's not turn on properly ,i mean it only recognize the phone when you enter windows mobile.
if i were you i would try to flash any rom i like and see if it works. i hope this helps
But ROM upgrade/downgrade program requires ActiveSync connection to run and I can't establish it...How to solve the situation, please advise?
when you are in bootloader screen and your phone is connected to the pc by usb cable just start the downgrade/upgrade program and it should work.
i did that. rom update utility complains that it cannot connect with mobile...
that was tried with:
1. official t-mobile ROM that was on the device when I got it
2. CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE ROM
my IPL and SPL versions now are 3.08
sorry , i can't think of anything that might help you.
same problem
phones a brick.
I can get to the bootloader , i can even perform a succesful hard reset.
But it doesnt get recognized by the computer in bootloader mode. is there any way to flash the rom if the computer doesnt recognize the device?
regards
Try this look for nbd v8.1 or v8.3 .
hold the camera button and do a soft reset but keep holding the camera button until the 3 color screen comes up it should sync your phone then run the nbd rom or original cingular ship rom like this one ** RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1 ** i prefer original then other but that's me. Hope this help you.

I searched all the forum for a problem like this but I didn't find any

Please how can i flash with the activesync doesn't notice my device and where's NVID Rom
Ok. I'll search for it but please help how can I flash it to the device which doesn't recognized or felt by PC
If your device is in bootloader mode, activesync cannot recognize it but this is normal. Jamin is recognize only as a usb device and you can downgrade it to NVID rom easly.
Then you could upgrade your favorite rom, I suggest PDAVIET 4.0.0.1
Bye for now

I think I didn't discuss the problem well
The Problem is when I start to flashing a rom a message tells that check if the usb is connected and if the device is connected .
This is happen with the device is connected to the cable and the tricolor screen is flicking . and the device doesn't open doesn't flashing.
must use NVID rom. maybe qtek nvid one from here? http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_ROMs

If the problem still there, Try to release the battery for 1-3 hours and put it again to the device, go to the boot loader and pray. Hopefully it could work. Actually, this way worked on my Himalaya and Prophet.
Just run the "Step 1" component of the PDAViet ROM (http://rapidshare.com/files/32728615/Prophet_PDAViet_Step1.zip), which is just a plain AKU 2.20 NVID. This will find your device even if its in bootloader mode (it doesnt depend on activesync). Just flash it with that sucker and you should have a working phone on WM5, then you can safely upgrade it to WM6 (or leave it if you like).

Error 260... If i remember correctly that's "cant find device" or something.
Few things to check:
Is the PC you are upgrading on running windows vista?
If so, use a different PC running windows XP.
Have you tried a different USB cable?
If not, do so, this tends to be the cause of problems like this.
Have you checked device manager?
Go to control panel, Administrative tools, computer management, device manager and see if you can find your device. If it has a yellow ! icon on it or is listed as "Unknown device" or anything like that then you may need to reinstall the drivers (int hsi case the easiest way to do that is to reinstall activesync). If everyhting is working properly it should show up as "HTC USB Sync", "PocketPC USB Sync" or something like that under the heading "Mobile Devices".
Have you just plain tried another computer, regardless of the OS?
I found that I could never get my phone to flash on my laptop, but it worked without a problem on my desktop. This is not to say laptop's cant do it, it simply means some computers just have problems like (in my case i believe) no USB 2.0, or too low-powered USB ports.

os 4.0.0.0
I have searched all the forums and still cannot get my spvm600 to do anything. I have tried to run several roms but the problem is they cant see the phone as activesync wont connect. is there a way i can boot from the sdcard or somthing or do i have a expensive paperweight. when i try to hold down the camera and comms keys on start it asks me to format the device and then says doen and goes back to the above screen
anyone?
ideas?
Try to restart your device and deliberatly go to boot loader (keep camera button in) (keep usb disconnected).
once at boot loader screen connect usb cable ... you should now see "usb" in bottom left corner on device screen.
now run a wm5 rom like in step 1 of "how to upgrade from WM5 to WM6" thread - - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310452.
it worked for me!
every rom i try to install on it needs activesync to connect to it but activesync douesnt connect to it as the phone has been formatted. there must be a way to fix it but but i am totally stuck
Rom Upgrade doesnt need Active Sync, you just need to be in bootloader and have the usb cable connected. Then just go through the update utility.
I try that and it still seems to say no device connected would you like to try copying again. I cant understand it cause it makes that bling noise when i plug it in
Use Update_NOID
You must use the No_ID Updater to upload a ROM from the 3 colour screen. Just run this exe file and you should not have any problems.
Hi,
Please help, I too have the same problem. Installed all the versions but no use. Can any one help me how to downgrade to Original German ROM version for Neo. So that I can return to O2 company... otherwise this become expensive paper weight

Help.
I have a Wizard G4 and I tried to install a WM6.5 ROM (TechTeamup Mega Wizard rom) from the default WM5. I did not put in the hard-spl (as I now read) before I tried to flash. Now when it boots, I go strait to the flash screen (tri-color) screen. I tried ot run the hard-spl-G4 and it says it cannot find a device. I have tried to re-flash back to WM5 ROMs that I have found, however it says it cannont complete "ERROR 296: UPGRADE ONLY, which makes me belive I need a G4 Wizard ROM that is a full (not upgrade). What steps should I take now to revert back to a WM5 so I can re-try the "unlock" hard-spl proceedure to make the phone WM6 compatible?
Anyone have any suggestions?
IPL 2.28.0001
SPL 2.28.0001
Download the original ship ROM for your phone.
Turn the phone off.
Press and hold the Camera key, now insert the USB cable, Keep holding the camera key until you get the boot loader screen.
Now run the ROM update to flash back to WM5.

Sometimes when i connect it to pc when ppc is off,the red light start blinking,is this should say something?
can somebody help me?
Hello together
wish you nice eavening!
My Problem is the following: The only thing, on my htc touch hd T8282 that seems to work, is the bootloader.
Til five minutes ago I could read there:
BLAC 100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP - BlackStone (LED) v6
now the following is added:
in the right, top corner: RUUNBH
in the green field: Upgrade ROM code error, Please try again
I think, this is because, in my helplessness, I interrupted the flashing process. But that's not the main problem.
Beside that, I can "start" the phone only by plugging in the USB cable from Computer or charging station. Then the phone vibrates, and the "smart mobility" screen comes up. After about 5 seconds it starts again, doing the same.
I tried hard resets, but it doesn't work. The only reason why I'm still trying to repair the phone is, that the bootloader is working. To me a signal, that somhow not everything is lost, but maybe I'm wrong.
I tried to flash the phone too. I tried first with the official "BlackStone_GER_1.56.407.2_Radio_52.60.25.33_1.12. 25.16DE_Ship.exe" which worked in the bootloader mode. At least the screen "flashing was sucsessful" showed. The bootloader was the same and nothing changed.
After that I tried with "HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe", which is not working. It demands a connection with the ActiveSync, which I have on my Computer, but the only way the computer detectes the Phone is in the bootloader mode. In normal mode computer and active sync don't detect a phone.
So my questions to you:
Do you know a way to load the hard spl (from OliNex) to the phone, although I cannot connect it to ActiveSync? There should be one, because with the official data it "works" (or seems to).
Do you have any help?
Thankyou

wel its saying spl so its original spl and not hspl
if you downloaded the german rom form the xda site it doesnt work as the spl in that rom isnt for youre device
if youre in bootloader try to flash hspl on it and then you can flash roms from the site
the other option is got to htc official site and look up the blackstone
there search the latest rom
if you want to download it you have to enter youre imei(can be found under the battery) with that code the rom youre going to download is only for oure device and is supposed to work for you
hope it helps
Thankyou for writing!
I downloaded and tested the rom from the htc site. I can run that and it comes up with the "successful screen". Then, the phone restarts, and I have the old problem, nothing changed.
As I mentioned before, I can not flash the hard spl from OliNex. That's my big problem. Because, also mentioned before, my phone is not recognized by the active-sync programm and in bootloader mode the HSPLWrapper from OliNex doesn't work.
hope there are some more replies and answers..

In activesync (or windows mobile device centre) go to connection settings and make sure that "allow usb connections" is ticked. Then retry connection device to computer. Put device into bootloader while connected. Does bottom of bootloader change from "serial" to "usb" after a couple of seconds?
In activesync "allow USB-connections" is ticked.
In the white, bottom part of the bootloader is written "USB" when connected to Computer. But if I connect it to the charging unit and start in bootloader, the white field is empty. I can't start it without any electricity source. Either there is another problem with the battery or, because you can't turn it off, the battery is flat all the time.
Also, the original htc blackstone rom-program, detects a connection to the phone, and is loading the rom properly, it seems. Because I could turn the bootloader screen back to where I already was once (by loading the official rom again):
BLAC 100 32M
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP - BlackStone (LED) v6
Somehow it seems, that the power button is not working, I can't shut down when it is in bootloader, and can't really start the unit. But it's hard to say, 'cause it's starting automatically.
thanks
