Farrie's ROM
Hello guys, I am so frustrated these past two days. I have t-mobile mda with rom ver 2.26. I downloaded Farrie's ROM, tried to flash it. The progress bar went up to 99% only. Then it went to recovery phase and still failed. I had to put back my old rom in. PLEASE I BEG YOU WHAT AM I DOING WRONG. I went step by step instruction. I start to think maybe, the rom is corrupted or something, PLEASE HELLLLLLLLLLLLP!

Where did you get the "old rom" for a G4?

Tried upgrading radio and now won't boot

So I did the HardSPL when I redid the phone a couple of months ago and lately it hasn't been getting service and just stopped altogether. So I looked to see what radio version I had and it said none.
So I proceeded to update the radio but I did not do the HARDSPL again as I already did it before. Well as I went through the whole process it said there was an error and told me to remove the batter. I did all this and now it won't boot up its just at the ROM screen or whatever with the three different colors.
How do I get it to boot up so I can get it to activesync and reimage it? I'm stuck and it just won't boot so I don't know what to do. Thanks
Oh and I've tried all the steps in getting by the bootloader by disabling usb and all that and it still doesn't work
I had the exact same problem yesterday ... connect it to your USB cable, and flash it with a STANDARD ROM, ie one downloaded from your phone's provider's site.
ie. We get our TyTNs through a local HTC distributor called Leaf Wireless. I downloaded the AKU3 rom from their site, and ran it. Reflashed my TyTN to their original AKU3 ROM, and after that I could reflash with whatever I wanted to
How do I reflash if I can't get it to activsync with mycomputer or don't you need to with a standard rom flash?
So I tried to do it with an original ROM and it gets to 12% done and fails everytime. How do I get this to boot back up normally?
If you go to the wiki it tells you how to do a rom upgrade off an SD card. I would try that route and re flash a ROM and radio that you know works, then take it from there.
Is all in the wiki.
Good luck.

Can you post a link to that wiki? I couldn't find the one you were referring to. Thanks
I have had the same issue and even though I still have gotten it to somewhat work I'm almost sure something is wrong and I will have to send it in for a warranty repair. Here are the steps I followed using the official 8525 rom download. http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=41&Itemid=27
After that Windows worked fine but still no radio (no gsm error). I downloaded the new radio only file off of the forums which didn't seem to work. I took my phone into the att wireless store and the lady reset my sim, somehow the radio started showing up and working.
I literally spent all day on this yesterday and it is hell. If you have any questions let me know I can guide you through it.
Check your pm's

Did I brick my phone?

Hey All,
I just started working on my phone last night. I installed some 3.xxx radio, and a new ROM that I cooked up. The problem is I did not unlock the phone before I did it, so now I start the phone and it is stuck in a pre-splash screen. Does anyone know where I can get the stock Windows Mobile 6 ROM for it so I can re flash it and then re-cook it? Cause it has OBVIOUS signs that I tweaked it, so it would be hard to explain that it was something "A guy at circuit city" told me to do to get WM6.1. Please help!
Okay I need more specifics. What carrier are you working from?
Stuff
Verizion X6800 went from 2.04 radio to a 3.xxx and wm6 to wm6.1
Just flash your phone with Olipro from microSD card, then u can flash any ROM (exp DCD 3.2.6) also from SD card.

Make it easy on yourself. Flash a Telus or Sprint ROM over to your phone. THis will fix any booboo's. YOU MUST STOP CARRIER CUSTOMIZATIONS from runing. After this is done, reflash with nueSPL 2.47 like you did and then put on a custom ROM.
This is your easiest option.
If you want the hard route put your phone in bootloader mode and tell me line by line what you see. That will tell us at what state you are in if you really want to try to figure out what you did wrong.
Either way, let us know how it turns out.
Read here for steps:
More info
TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40.Olipro
CPLD-9
Its still messed up trying the other suggestions. Does anyone know where I can get the original. WM6 rom so I can try again. Or can I unlock it without it so I can load a ROM....also I don't have an SD card.
Thanks for all the help so far

Stuck in bootloader, do i need stock alltel rom?

I attempted to update my ppc after attempting to fix mms, and everything went wrong. I started this thread yesterday on ppcgeeks: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=51416 & then http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=51461
I tried to update to vetvitos black pill rom, not realizing it was a gps rom, and now when I start my phone, it has a PPCGeeks and PPCKitchen splash screen. At the bottom it says "No Radio"
I have an Alltel 6800 flashed to cricket. I have been looking for the answer for almost 24 hours straight now, and have not found one.
From what I've been reading, this is what I think ive learned:
The only way to get these roms working is with the Olipro 2.4 SPL on my phone, but the only way to get the Hard SPL on my phone is through activesync, which can't be done if i can't get into my phone. I don't think my phone is bricked, but I don't know where to go from here.
I think I need to reflash the phone to the stock rom (i think its 1.4) but I can't find it anywhere.
Can someone please help me?
just reflash with any stock one ... go to htc's site and you can download them there... the new one stock ones for alltel have GPS enabled on the radio too ... just dont let the customizations run when flashing to stock then flash to the rom of ur choice

[Q] Please help with radio problem

let me start off by saying i'm not a noob, maybe a semi-noob
my phone is def hard SPL
i know for a fact that my phone has a radio problem
i can successfully flash roms, not official ones
if i try and flash a stock one, it will flash the rom and when it starts on the radio, it fails
i also tried a complete rom like laurentius, it flashes then it will fail during the radio update
custom roms that do not include a radio update will successfully flash
i've tried both methods, micro usb and active sync
no luck.... laurentius fails at 15%. official roms fail at 8% or just stall and i get error 290...
i did a lot of researching and 2 other people here have had the same problem.
one ended up selling his... and i don't think the other has found a solution
read something about gold card? no clue what that is
please help!
thanks in advance

What HSPL, ROM and RADIO have you on your phone now?
Have you tried to flash a RADIO itself?
Flash a radio... noob...
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App

While asking for help please mention current Radio, ROM, OS versions on the phone. Would be easier to help.

Plz help to solve bricked vibrant s... plz....

I already posted my problems on this wall and I tried every solutions that people suggested me but it still not working....... bad.....
So I wanna say exactly what is my problems.
First of all, I rooted my phone when the version was 2.1 eclair and I did not use any custom rom I just used lagfix app
Secondary, I watched news that I was able to upgrade my phone to 2.2 froyo by official update. so I tried to update my version by kies mini without eliminating rooting system. the updating was working and my phone rebooted automatically but after I saw the hallmark as samsung galaxy s on the screen, my phone's screen was dark and I cannot see anything. Just sometimes it vibrated.
thirdly, I tried to recover by odin and official rom but it did not work.
at that time, odin stopped when it installed modem.bin (I used odin v1.0 first and I changed v1.7)
Finally, I posted my problems on this board and I got some suggestions from other great guys. so I tried 3 roms( T959UVJFD.tar, T959UVJI6.tar and another one) and I tried whole version odin to solve the problems. However, it did not work for me...........
WHatever I used different roms, odin always stopped when it installs modem.bin.... I think that is the most serious problem....
Please if you guys know how to solve this problems.... plz say me..... I will really appreciate guys..... Thanks
If I follow you guys instructions and my phone get back... I will give the poster 20 bucks by paypal...... plz help me..
Will you go to my noob guide and follow my instructions for the ALT METHOD? (its in my signature)
Be sure and download the correct files. And Please use the ODIN version I suggest.
I included videos and I suggest watching them to make sure you are not doing something silly.
If it works, give the money to a developer of your choice... or give it to me and I will give it to some I have not donated to recently.

Was there a lag fix in place when you tried to ODIN back to stock, My very first Rom I ever flashed I had OCLF in place and tried to ODIN back to the original files and it was a nightmare getting it to work. You can always blame TMO on there 2.2 update and they more than likely will give you a new phone, But follow ss10823's thread he has some good stuff out there.
