I accidentally droped my SX56, and from then on, when i turn it on it just freezes on the boot screen, and wont do anything more. the boot diagnostics run good. anybody out there has da the same problem?, what can i do, i'd hate to trow it away, thanks.
Maybe it helps reflashing the ROM.....
But i think it might be a hardware problem...

Did you happen to get this fixed.. same thing happened to me.. locks at boot but the wallaby boot thingy comes up fine.

Umm what do you mean by "missing an OS"??
Hi Scott,
which XDA do you have? Do you get an error message when the device starts up? I don't know if this would help since the talk at this link is specifically about upgrading to WM 2003 from PPC 2002 and obviously you would need to have the previous OS on the PPC. However if you have an XDA I, this might give you a basis to work off of.

Have a look in the Wallaby FTP folder as well:

Good Luck
basically i bought it off ebay knowing there wasnt an OS on it, when i received the phone i cant turn it on, so how do i put the OS back on the XDA?
its an XDA PW10A1
Pressing the power button and doing a soft reset doesnt work, in fact nothing does, i cant get to the bootloader as the phone doesnt even switch on. The only thing i do notice is when i press hard reset the light near the headphone jack turns red. And sometimes the power light will flicker red, but thats all it does.
Ive got a memory card and I can write to it, if someone can help me get this thing back up and running i would be extremely grateful.

The symptoms you are describing are very similar to those that appeared on my PW10A2 recently.
Try the following:
Put it in the cradle for quite a period, say 15 minutes or so. If it comes up with some screen (whatever) take it out of the cradle, press the power on button while doing a soft-reset simultaneously. When it then comes up with the wallaby bootloader you may have good chances.
I managed (with the help of this forum) to get a new ROM installed from the SD by this method.
ok ill try that! thanks
how did you get the OS rom back onto the XDA?
Also could I be missing the Bootloader on the XDA itself?
ok i tried what you said and nothing works i dont even get a screen flicker!
i really need help as i dont have a phone at the moment and need it for work.

Hmm. Shot in the dark:
Blown fuse on the main board?
Does the LED get lit in any color when you put it in the cradle?
How long did you leave it in the cradle?
Do you have access to another cradle?
yeh i get the charge light when it sits in the cradle (orange light). plus i have two cradles n they both "appear" to charge it. Ive left the phone in the cradle for a whole day and nothing.
Did you do a cold reset?
Does it react (go on) if you press the on-button when it sits in the cradle?
Did you try the soft-reset+Onbutton (enter Wallaby boot loader)?
I'm no expert. I'm only repeating what I learned so far here in this forum
no mate none of those methods work either!
i aint got a clue whats wrong with it!!
I upgraded my himalaya to WM5 using llbasha's rom. Everything was ok, all functions of my device was working. But one day i saw my devices screen was shaking like a old tv near a ringining cell phone. When i reset my device i see screen become white and device dont turn on. I charge battery on cradle and try about 4-5 times to turn it on i turns on but turn it on is really hard. I tried to downgrade it to WM2003 or some other roms but himaupgradeut doesnt recognise my devices rom and extrom or ce version. I tried to go on to flash the rom. Flashing finished but it was still WM05 but with WM2003se splash screen. And still screen was shaking ang still i was living white screen problem. I checked sccren connector and it was ok. Whenever i look bootloader it shakes too. I think problem is about device, not about display because when i live white screen problem any of lights turn on or any buttons work. If anyone can help me or give any advice i thank a lot.
Best regards

Solved
I solved problem by changing mainboard of device.
Hi guys
I have a dead prophet in my hands. It came dead already and I dont know what happened to it. Basicly, screen flashes when I put the battery in. Cant go on bootloader by pressing the keys. Can only go in bootloader by shorting the charger to the pins ( 1 and 5 ). Bootloader dosnt stay on if I take the cables on. It stays on only shorting it. I manage put this rom from the imate
JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip and had no luck . ROM update sucess but phone still in the same way. Im going to try a couple of more roms to see if I have any luck. Did anyone had a similar problem ? its a G4 so there is a chance that someone previouly tried a bad rom or even can be hardware problem.
Still .. any sugestion is good.
Thanks guys
Try the ORIGINAL wall charger and then put the battery in. That might work and once th accu has charged enough you can boot.
Might be the charging-bug.
My S200 is back for repair, crashd a couple of times and now it turns on, but see no display, no LED's.
Looks like a hardware defect, on active sync the S200 seems to work.
Hard reset's didn't work out.
The Phone is equiped with an original latest WWE ROM.
It seems to be a problem of these phone's, this is the second time it broke with this problem....
There is a difference with the former problem and my latest, the former my screen never came up, with the latest it came up after removing the battery for 15 minutes, but after an hour usage the S200 crashd or didn't show any display...
Hope they are able to repair the damn thing..., it wasn't a cheap device...
Another one here!
I'm the most stupid guy in the world. I was unlocking my G4 device with Lokiwize, and it killed my Prophet . I can't Turn it on without Charger. While trying to turn it on the LCD and LEDs just blinking and nothing will happened. I Need My Device, Anyone who can help me?
I think it's IPL Problem.

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my x10 mini pro. There are some similar posts here but nobody exactly describe what is happening to me. So my problem:
One day i have been in subway, phone working properly everything fine. THan suddenly 3G icon has disappear and wouldnt go back. So i decided to restart the device. But since i turned it off, i cannot turn it back on again...
I have tried to take out the simcard, take out mempory card, multiple time reflash by SEUS but still cannot turn it on.
I cna charge the phone with no problem, i can flash it with no problem, but i cannot use it at all.
When i press power button, phone shortly vibrate as he is turning on, than display get a bit brighter (not white, just lights up its easy to notice from profile). and than after few seconds get black again. And like this it continue until it drains battery, only without vibrating. every cca 5 seconds display light up and than get black again. So i guess its rebooting all the time. I have tried all tricks like pressing power+home button, still nothing.
I think i just need really wipe out the whole phone and flash it again. Is it possible somehow? I feel like reflashing by SEUS is not real hardcore flash, is there anything stronger i can try?
I am willing to try anything if anybody has an idea, since its not working anyway so i dont care what i try.
Thanks for advices !
So ive been using JMT since the v8 and ive never had a problem before. One night i decided to get the X1 and everything seemed to well..the next day i was chargin my phone and i noticed that the phone was off, the chargitng icon was not showing.
I turned to phone on and it would go halfway the splash screen and then it would go black.. then it would start vibrating the way it vibrates when u turn the phone on and it just does that. I tried doing a battery pull but everything that i put in the battery the phone turns on automaticly.
Ive tried going to recovery but it just wont go in. PC doesnt detect the phone and it looks like theres a 5 second gap before the phone does the same hthing over and over.
I dont know what to do because the phone doesnt let me do anything.No recovery,no nothing.
could somebody help me please?
what can i do!? any other ways to totally erase the whole phone! even if i have to fry the motherboard so i could get a replacement lol! but i dont want to do that tho that would be my last solution
it looks like you may need a jtag to fix the phone, it seems that the X1 may have bricked your phone.
