Help - cannot access bootloader mode. Freeze on "Loading..." - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin

Hello all, I think I may have a minor problem here. I have recently successfully SuperCIDed and upgraded my 8525 to the 1.27 radio and 2.06 rom using the 1.01 MFG bootloader. Well, out of curiousty, I wanted to access my hermes using mtty.
When I tried to boot into the bootloader (on-ok-softreset), I see the tri-color screen for only a second, followed by an all white screen that says "loading . . . ". It stays stuck on this white "loading" screen unless I soft reset. I can boot WM5 without any problems. Any ideas? I do not know what happened as it was working perfectly when I upgraded my device. If I cannot get into the bootloader, it seems I will be stuck with my current ROM forever! I'm pretty nervous right now, please help.

Stupid mistake that almost caused me to have a heart attack. MicroSD card was preventing me from entering the bootloader. Took it out and all is well.

Bricked hermes?

I've just been trying to upgrade my ROM today, I've been reading all the info on the wiki for the past few weeks, decided that i'd try, and cautiously attempted upgrading to 1.35.255
I'd already performed the unlocking and super CID, and i checked via mtty, and info 2, all was good!
Unfortunately during the flashing, the RUU kept stopping around 1% i followed the recovery steps, all was not lost, again i tried, got to 5% this time......Every time it stopped it said it had a 262 error, anyway, I'm now trying to flash the hermes via the SD flashing method (maybe what i should have done in the beginning!)
I've got my card with HERMIMG.nbh on it, and when i boot up into bootloader....it briefly flashed on the screen no image file.....
And i've just tried again, and it flashes the tri colour screen...then briefly loading.... and then back to the tri colour screen.....
When i boot up normally, it just gets stuck on the windows mobile splash screen....
Anyone offer any advice???
Thanks in advance.

If you can make it to the Cingular splash screen, you should be ok. Did you hard-reset your phone after the shelltool?

I have the same problem and yes I reset after shelltool. Now its stuck in the bootloader screen and every rom I try gives me a different error. From invalid file to phone not detected, etc. What do I do?
For anyone who gets stuck and is readin this post. If your CID unlocked and your SPL say 2.XXOlip just find and load the "wizard love rom". That rom saves people from all kinds of problems. Once you have it loaded the phone will boot up normally (you will see like some cartoons people in water on the splash screen) and you can then load other roms. In my case I loaded BlackDiamond 3.1.

reverting to AP3 after failed AP4 upgrade --> customization reset loop

My first attempt to upgrade to AP4 did not succeed unfortunately (SPL to 3.50 upgrade went OK though), my power light stayed green and the display wouldn't come on.
So I took the Athena into bootloader and re-flashed back to AP3.
All seemed fine, the "Tap the screen to set up your device" screen appeared, I set it up and let the customization program run.
Unfortunately after the automatic reset at the end of the customization program, the device returned to the "Tap the screen to set up your device" and the customization program started again...
I tried interrupting the customization by soft resetting before it started executing itself, soft resetted during customization, let customization finish again (and again), but the device seems to be in an endless loop....
Any suggestions/help?
Thanks a lot in advance!
this happen because the spl and the kernel, AKA nk.exe, do not match. not sure what to do except try the new ap3 the cmonex posted **not sure if you tried that**
try the 3.0 cmonex posted and enjoy.
solved!
Thanks irus & Pawel062 (and cmonex!), that did the trick!
Probably not a bad idea to advise anybody who needs downgrading from AP4 to AP3 to use that rom. Download it from http://htc-hackers.com/uploads/ap3newspl.zip
See cmonex' thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386604
***great Information!***
HEY ALL,
I WAS ALSO HAVING SOME ISSUES VERY SIMILAR TO THESE WHILE TRYING TO "DOWNGRADE" TO ANY ROM FROM AP 4.0. THIS IS GREAT INFO AS I BUILD MY OWN ROMS CONSTANTLY, SO I WAS A BIT WORRIED WHEN I COULDNT SWITCH AFTER TRYING AP 4.O, BUT THANKS TO CMONEX, IRUS, & PAWEL062, WE CAN DOWNGRADE A BIT EASIER!
THANKS AGAIN!

just flash it with normal RUU
I have this problem of the "looping" with the customizations. My problem is that I can't get the device to a state where it is "talking" to activesync and from what I see, I need that to push this ap3spl new file.
When you say "just flash it with normal RUU" can you tell me what that means please? (sorry, noob here...) I've spent hours on the forums, wiki etc and I'm a bit lost.
I'm "trying" to get AP4 w/WM6.1 onto the device.
Purchased unlocked (new) and used on AT&T for 6 months.
Went to update the radio to 1.57 and used the unlocker first. (took out SIM/SD first of course).
Got past step one and then got a black screen on reboot...
I got AP3 to load but now I get this fun looping.. Setup device, load customizations, reboot, and start over.
Sounds like this file in this thread is my fix to at least get AP3 working but not sure how to apply. Can I do it from the bootloader?
thanks in advance for putting up with me
Oh yeah:
My current state:
ATHE100
IPL - v2.02
ATHE100 MFG
SPL -v3.50 OliNex
Eureka!
Ok, I'm not a COMPLETE noob.. (close). I'm up and running. AP3 (new spl) loaded, then loaded AP4. Woo Hoo!
No GPS
Well, I guess I'm "Almost" back up and running.
Since step three never got kicked off, it looks like my GPS rom/radio never was rewritten back to the device.
Any help on how to get just the GPS portion back?
Endless loop after flashing AP4
I have a similar problem. My Dopod U1000 was running WM6 and I upgraded to
radio version 1.58.00 no problem. After flashing AP4 I am in a cycle where my initial boot screen has black and white lines at the top and black at the bottom
Then get the Windows Mobile 6.1 screen and after automatic customizing the
PDA resets itself. I have tried to flash the AP3newspl file but it cant communicate successfully with the synced PDA. Any help?

Thanks lakeman. I reinstalled WM6 ROM from the boot loader.
My IPL v1.00 and SPL v1.20. Olipro and Radio 1.58
I have transferred enblerapi.cab to PDA and run it each time but when I flash
AP4 ROM or AP3newspl ROM I get an endless loop and my SPL stays v1.20
I cant seem to get a flash of SPL3.5 which I suspect is the problem.
Am I missing something?

G4 Bricked? Tri-Color boot screen visible

Hi. I have searched the forums, but haven't found the answer I have been looking for, so sorry if this is a repeat.
I am working under Windows 7, installed VMWare and XP Pro on it, and easily installed Hard-SPL and Cracings 6.5. When I went to upgrade the Radio, I was sure to download one without SPL and IPL. I tried to upgrade, but it hung at 2% for at least 5 hours. (I knew it was bad in 2 minutes actually, but decided to wait). Now it will turn on, but to the tri-color boot screen. Tried hard reset (although I didn't really expect it to work). Is there anything that I can do? It shows when I connect it to usb, both on the phone and on the computer.
It is FAR out from under warranty, so thats out, but if there is anything I could try, I would be much obliged for pointers. Thanks a lot!

You need to make the update with RUU 2.5.2
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314952 ).
Try it, if even that does not work (for me it works only with wizard_love ROM
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...293480&page=21 loca's post), but not with other cooked ROM's) then you can try WST wizard service tool
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329170 ) to unpack the nbf and load only the OS ROM.
Thanks for the info.
I will try it later this weekend when i get time! (moving to new apt.... sigh... can't feed the addiction)

If Tri Colour Screen WST needs to boot into WM OS surely???
How can you use WST if only on bootloader. Please explain as I have similar issues...
Dilbert
I had exactly the same experience as you: Hard-SPL followed by Cracing and then the tri-color screen. This thread helped me revive my G4.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442126
Hey I am having the same problem but with my G3 att 8125. I flashed to 2.26 which I always do before installing any rom then installed X2A Haseebs Iphone Killer and it stalled at 57% for over an hour so I unplugged it and hard-reset it. I have installed this rom about twice and it works fine. Now my phone starts up and goes straight to the Tri-colored bootscreen. When I plug the phone in it displays that it is connected via USB but the computer doesnt recognize it. IPL 2.26, SPL 2.26 as displayed on the screen. PLEASE HELP!
Hi all, I've got the exact same problem as Quadzilla has - any help would be much appreciated!
