Cannot access my Bootloader - HELP!!!

Hi eveyone!
I've tried to upgrade my XDA to WM2003 (4.01.16 ENG form T-Mobile). Now I cannot access to my bootloader and GSM doesn't work.
Is there any chance to fix my XDA? Is there any softawre to restore bootloader?
I would be really appreciate for help.
Tom

if the bootloader is broken then

look at the first picture

Do you think it'll work, even though I cannot connect via Activ Sync???

what do you get when trying to access the bootloader screen ?

Nothing, beacuse I simply cannot access bootloader. When I do soft restart with holding the power button, it doesn't bring me to bootloader screen.
Is it possible that I had deleted Bootloader??? How can I restore it?????
Please help me, beacuse I can't afford to by a new device.
I do appreciate every hint.
Regards

AFAIK device still works so there is a possibility to upgrade it by copying sth into device using MMC or SD card. If I feel right about the reason of problems mensioned above he have to change Radio Stack and he can do this by MMC transfer and exe method. Maybe some of U can provide some link to working RS with good readme included...

Yes, if you still can sync with your xda, run the fixbootloader.bat from \xdatools\binaries on your PC

[Q] Phone locked up on boot. Did I brick it?

Recently flashed to NSFfans 6.5 WM rom. I couldn't activate the phone on my account because it wouldn't take the ##...# codes.
Long story short I attempted flashing Bigstorage_SprintTouchRom.exe to try and get back to sprint software where I could use the ## codes.
Everything went smoothly until first boot when it stopped at the "HTC smart mobility" screen. I then hard reset it (send+end+reset button on bottom) and it is still locking up on that screen.
Did I just break my phone?

Thread moved to General.
No, you didn't brick it. It simply sounds like a bad flash.
Try flashing to another rom and see what happens. Which unlocker did you have on? 2.31 or .41?
BTW, if your ## codes don't work is probably because you are using a themed dialer. NFS' rom has a folder under Start Menu that is called "Phone Codes". In there, you will find the PST shortcut, which will allow you to program your phone.

if you can get into the bootloader (tri-color screen) then you haven't bricked it.

Sorry for posting in the wrong forum.
How can I get to the boot loader if the phone stays at the "HTC smart mobility" boot screen?
I tried using the rom update utility but it's not connected so it won't do anything.
---------------------------------------------
Edit: Okay, I have successfully re-flashed back to 6.5. The bootloader can be accessed by turning on the phone while pressing the camera button.
I am using 2.31 unlocker. When I try and activate the phone again what do I need to change in the phone codes to make it work?
Thanks guys.

Under the PST programming, more than likely you will only need to change:
MSID
MIN
HOMESID
username and password (for internet)
You shouldn't need to mess with anything else afaik.

Details, details - how have you flashed? Have you tried flashing from bootloader? Flashing a carrier rom from bootloader should do the trick.

He has a pre-release phone, it came with a custom firmware that has those tools pre-installed.
YuLong, have you tried rebooting the phone (remove the battery, etc)?
If that doesn't work, have you tried connecting it to a different computer with just the Zune software? It might work.

that's a test rom, not a shipping ROM, so none of us will see that.

I need a htc surround rom desperately as i made the great mistake of purchasing a likely stolen store display model. its main account is set to [email protected] and keeps popping up with fake texts and refilling the contacts with fake contacts. my battery dies fast. Im sure im not the first to ask for a rom, but lord knows i need one.

need DIag mode Driver.Thanks

I plugged it in to my PC again and it said to restore it... So I said ok and I got the same Error 801812E0 Now I cannot use my phone Please will someone help me.
Also I am only 15. My Parents will be very pissed if they found out what happened.. but I need to get this working ASAP.. I cannot call ATT Ive tried everything.. Please someone respond

I think you should reflash your phone in order to get it work.
Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=943714 and download your compatible rom, then reboot it into bootloader (Power + Volume Down), connect to PC, and reflash ^^
Hope it help

Thank you for your concern, but How am I supposed to figure out what type of ROM I need if I have no access to my phone to see? Haha

Use the Cingular ROM. I flashed my Surround from AT&T and it went OK, the ROM reverted to 7004. After that you can unlock your phone using ChevronWP7, use the fix to prevent it from re-locking again and then update to NoDo.
The rapidshare link from Ansar's post is down. I uploaded the Cingluar ROM to multiupload so you can fix your phone. Download it.
The instructions to flash your phone are as follow:
1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder
2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone
3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode
4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button
5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable
6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop
7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen
8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above
9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen

Please remember not to interrupt the flashing process! Do not disconnect the phone or play with it while it's being flashed. Try avoid using your computer at all and close all other applications before starting.

ertz, Noob here. I updated with the chevron updater and it seems that may be problematic. I'm using an at& branded surround will flashing the cingular rom allow me to recieve updates through zune?

I'm pretty much a noob too, I just learnt a thing or two in the past few weeks
You will have no problems at all with your carrier if you flash your AT&T phone using the Cingular ROM. The SIM-lock will stay the same as it is (either locked or unlocked,) the phone will return to its factory settings.
Being restored to its factory settings will mean that you'll get the updates through Zune when AT&T decides it's time for you to get them. You can, however, unbrand your phone to receive the updates almost as soon as they're released. Remember that you'll need to "developer unlock" your phone before you can unbrand it.
I have my SIM-unlocked Surround on Movistar (Argentina carrier) and I can get the updates through Zune after unbranding it. No Chevron Updater or other hacks to get the updates.

Thank you guys for your help <3 I Actually just went and traded it in for another one If this happens again I will use this method Thank you much!

P8 - bootloader issue

Hi Gents, Ladies
I have the GRA-L09 P8, single SIM south Africa. I installed B200 via SD card no issue, then tried to install I think B313 Romanian.? Not sure..
Device is now stuck in a boot loop - I see the boot animation, over an over....!!!!
I thought, and still think, I need a Huawei Bootloader unlock code, as the device doesnt seem to listen to Fastboot to flash another ROM.
Huawei site to obtain bootloader unlock codes seems to be having issues, and Huawei support will not assist. Right now I just wanna go back to the stock ROM and get my device back.
Any help would be appreciated - thanks gents, and ladies!

Did you try to do a factory reset, when the phone is rebooting and the screen is black before you see the huawei logo you need to be fast here hold volume up + power button together at the same time to enter stock recovery you should be able to do a factory reset from there.
If this doesn't work try to install B200 rom put the dload folder in the sd card. Hold the 3 keys( volume up, volum down and power) to flash the rom make sure to hold the buttons when the screen is black and before you see the huawei logo.

Great I'm try these thanks - neither will format the SD card right? Can I use B200 from any region?

No, but use the B200 you installed before on your phone. If you want from another region make sure the rom you download CxxxB200 , the xxx part matches the one that came with your phone.
