Shut down the device completely, then you can charge your Wizard through AC adapter.
After the device is fully charged (Red LED changes to Green), Enter bootloader (Press Power, then hold Camera button) and run RUU to upgrade it.

I dont know wht is the problem but i think or assume that i have lost bootloader and or Rom ,,, Please help with this part

make sure Battery is full ..
Now phone working just fine ..posted this for some other newbie like me

Drat. Got to this one too late. Sorry
Anyways, the Atom does have the tendency to lose track of its own extended ROM (You can actually see this happening if you use the WM5 hidden storage revealer - which ironically happens to cause the problem sometimes as well).
Symptoms include:
- A phracking long boot time (>7 minutes, seems to hang)
- Screen goes out of alignment
- Camera, Autoconfig, Equalizer don't work.
- Hard reset doesn't help.
- EXTROM info is missing from device settings (shows as blank) - tho sometimes the device works without this anyhoo.
- CMOS version is also missing (the device definitely won't work in this case)
Probable cause:
- Someone or something just tried to write to your hidden storage root. (Eh?)
Far as I know there's no method to recover other than flashing your phone again. Just one of the design flaws of the Atom, I guess...
(Yes, I feel for you. I had to solve this myself too, and I didn't want to send it in. Thankfully, this isn't a common problem. )
I've just downloaded the latest Rom from seeo2.com hongkong and I had the very same problem.
My XDA Atom Exec is frozen at the O2 screen.
mun66, if you read this, could you explain how you fixed it?
thanks.

would you plz tell here which rom u used for this ????????
Well, my Atom Exec will do the same sometimes.
But the following method works everytime!!!
Take out the battery. Charge it with a charger until full !!!!
Put it back to the machine, it works every time !!!
Or you may try just charge it in the machine for a few hours and see if that works. Since I always have a spare battery charged, every time that dumb thing stuck, I just changed the battery and it waked up again.

You guys just need to go into bootloader mode before performing an upgrade. For the XDA Atom just press Power+Dpad(center)+stylus reset momentarily, and its now in bootloader mode. RUN again the Update program. If you still experience the same thing, the update file you downloaded might be corrupted. You have to download again and flash your device again.
Mine is still stucked in O2 though done all of the above ways,
got the new ROM and flash it, but still stuck in it.
PLS HELP ME GUYS!!!

You might want to send it in the the service centre for a check, just in case it's a hardware problem.. If you still face the same issue even without installing any software..
That's probably a good idea, but i'd like to try some tricks on many threads before.
And also I've heard that O2 service center are not cool

Do keep us posted..
I will face the same problem if i install too much programs.. I guess it's either Pocket Plus, Diary 2 which is causing my problem.. Now wondering if i should change to Atom Life, since they announce WM6... If only there's a perfect phone.
Thank God, it's working after 5x flashing but it still had bug.
I still have to take the battery off for at least 15 minutes if I try to reset the Atom.
Sure 1 thing for ATOM, IT SU**S!!!
i have a friend also has a trouble like this ,but he has solved the problem when he charged the exec. do not you have a try ?
I just picked up one of these to play with.
Mine gets by the O2 screen but if I have a few apps on it it loads the Today screen but then freezes and won't let me access anything either by hard key or screen. Soft reset just repeats the cycle.
This is with only around 4 apps loaded. One of them must be a culprit?
By the way, it came shipped with WM6.0 (ROM: WWE_RC2170507B2).
dear all friends
i have wiza200 k-jam it was work with love rom then i try to flash e it with shelltoll with RUU_Prodigy_2210206_22102109_021911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship
and then phone hange in phone screen ibl and sple it can go to boot mode
but how can reflash it. it cant accepte update so please help me how can i revive it please tell me .
iam waiting help .
put the device in bootloader mode and flash the latest rom from your carrier quick!!!! before the battery drains out.
holding down the camera button then press the soft reset whole..
that should bring you to bootloader.. then flash!

Yes if the battery drains and the phone has no OS it is not capable of recharging the battery as this is controlled by software not hardware, an external charger would be needed to charge the battery and then flash the phone.

I got it. Its working again. But I want Windows Mobile 6. So if someone can give me a clou how to change the rom and where I can find a ROM for G4 that would be great.
THX
Ok, so I tried to flash my G4 wizard to wm6, went all the way through the flash, got to 99% and stopped, giving me a comm error. I did the recovery and im in an endless flash to 99% loop. When I turn it on, I get the bootloader (3 stripe) screen, with the following:
RUU upper right corner
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL 2.25.0001
USB lower left corner.
I have spent the last 4 hours reading posts and cannot fix this thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
did u flash it back to carrier rom?
Flash it back to the original carrier ROM (should be available on the website) and then use ShellTool to flash the ROM. make sure that you follow the instructions exactly, otherwise, you will end up with a bricked rom.
-Nstefanelli-
The only rom I can find on Cingular's web site, once downloaded says its corupted, and I cant find one on XDA at all. Anybody know where else I might find one?
Wizard Love rom is another one you could try.
Wizard Love got me goin again, I love me some wizard.
Thanks for the help guys!!!
Same Problem I Have Faced.... And Also Solved.
u have Radio Rom problem....
search the latest radio rom and upload to your rom... and restart your pda...
reply me..... sooon because same problem i had faced and solved also.
Same problem
I was having the same problem yesterday. Eventually i got it to work again. It was a little confusing though because i used the rom from the HTC website to get it up and running again with wm5 and then used ShellTool from the sticky in this forum to flash it with a wm6 rom. From what i gather it's because my phone was CID locked, something that none of the roms include in their instructions to watch out for. Maybe a sticky in the forum for newbs like me containing things to watch out for while flashing roms?
A side note:
I had to download the rom from the HTC site twice in order for it to flash back to the original OS. The first time i downloaded the rom i kept getting an error. I guess it was a bad download or something but the second one worked in the first shot.
think i bricked my wizard
oops !!!!
think i flashed a g3 rom onto my g4 wizard and for a while it stayed in bootloader screen (tricolour) now the wizard is dead with no charging light when plugged in and performing hard reset does nothing
please help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is no help for you if you did flash a non-official G3 rom onto your phone.
Recent Official carrier releases are the only roms that contain bootloaders that are safe to flash into a G4. (Note older carrier releases could possibly fry your phone as well as they may not contain G4 bootloaders)
If you flashed a custom rom with IPL/SPL your device is done for good.
Though you said it went to the bootloader prior to going dark so you may just have a dead battery and a bad flash. Get a battery from a friend or buy one and then see if the device will power on. If you can't get it to power on with a known good battery then it is most likely fried. If it does boot at least to bootloader then you should be able to recover your device. Most chargers will not charge the battery of your phone unless the phone is fully booted into windows. So it is very important to have a contingency plan in case of a bad flash with these phones as playing/troubleshooting while trying to recover from a bad flash will drain your battery possibly leaving you with not enough juice to complete a flash.
hi zzan
thanks for the reply, i think your right about the battery it actually turns on for about 10 seconds now into bootloader but then the battery dies again so i gonna source a battery.

Remove the battery for about 5 minutes, then put it back in.. then try booting in bootloader mode <tri color screen> .. then flash with an OFFICIAL Carrier ROM ..
I flashed my hermes yesterday <changing the spl and stuff> and it was dead for a little bit, until I took the battery out and put it back in.. <for some reason it was like a de-fibrilator..>
Try that.
hi madcap,
not looking good i toook it to a phone engineer and he says it is corrupt ? he has tried flashing it, apparently there is a guy who will put in a new chip ? i am such a fool i bricked my phone just to get rid of o2 stuff !!!!!

A new chip?!?!??
The problem is the in the IPL area which can now be flashed only via JTAG (cable system that doesn't require booting files since it operates directly on the chip)
Take it to an official repair.
Hi,
I have almost the same problem. I tried to flash to WM6.1 for wizzard, it got to 99% and failed (connection lost). I then tried the recovery process but that didnt work.
Now I can boot to the booloader, and see the IPL/SPL versions (2.25.0001) and can see USB on the lower left. But , it is not making a connection to my PC. None of the RUU, ROMS, HardSPL, or SoftSPL apps can connect to it.
They all report some connection error, "Device not found", or "Connection Error 264"...
I have read a bunch on this forum, and tried alot of stuff but nothing worked.
I started up my own thread on my issue, but hope someone could help me, help someone else in the process here..
How can I get this thing flashable again?
Thanks

This worked for me and now I can connect the apps to the phone again. But after I try to install the default rom, everytime at 80% it looses the connection again.. .
Anyone know a good WM6.1 rom that works with 8125 G4

Fully recharge your battery, then try to flash again. Low/dead/misreporting battery will kill a flash as surely as disconnecting the cable in mid-flash. Oh, and try WizFlo...really cool! (I had to fiddle with the Opera Browser install to get the Internet connection to work correctly, but who cares, it was worth it!)
THANX BEFORE ANY THING
i have o2 xda mini s locked g4 iwas trying to upgrade it i used shell tool bug fixed
but it hang on imate
i enter bootloader it show usb i tried to use any official rom from imate or any other rom it reached 100% but still hanging
i left it for about 15 min.
when return i tried so many times to open it or enter boatloader but no thing happen it seem useless
i changed battery but no thing happen.....
now it open for just seconds then close
i want it to enter boatloader and i will repair it
IS THERE ANY HOPE OR I LOST IT FOREVER???????
1. You should use O2 stock ROM or Wizard Love ROM for OS restore, not i-mate
2. Your battery may be flat. Plug your wizard into wall charger, wait for it to fully charged, then enter RUU again.

I had similar experience a while back.
WIZARD LOVE did it for me.
Good luck.
Try following this thread to get it back into bootloader mode. Once you have it there and it is connected to your PC again, flash your latest O2 Rom. Not an I-Mate Rom or anything else until you are able to bring it back to life again.

here you go
I was trying to update my WM5 to WM6 I have the G4 8125 , now it wont turn on I plugged it in to the charger port and the light that shows it's charging doesn’t even come on. Last night after I was trying to update it went completely blank, I tried to run the Official AT&T RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship_1 and it wont even connect to my phone it gives me the connect error, every now and then last night it would show the boot loader screen but now its doing nothing someone HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!! PLZZZ Does this mean my phone is bricked ???
brick is normal!
you should donate the brick to xda-developers now!
What you mean is normal ? is their anyway way i can get it fixed or is it just a paper weight now ?
probably runed out of battery. you should charge the battery in some way. try to power on the device while pressing camera button. it should show a boot loader screen. the you should flash a G4 SAFE ROM (with no spl/ipl) like "wizard love". if that doesnt help, sorry mate, you have a brick
are you able to enter bootloader?
hold down camera and either press power or reset button
No im not able to do anything on the phone lastnight it would go into bootloader randomly evey now and again but it isnt doing nothing now.
Ugh , i hope it is just the battery if it isnt then theirs nothing i can do for the phone unless i can get it in to bootloader mode right ?
your battery is dead...that's why you can't enter bootloader.
Moving to wizard G4.
Only the original charger is capable to charge your battery (it has a little bit more power), if it's fully charged... go into bootloader mode and install your official ROM the normal way.
It worked for me.
correct
im dealing with the same issue and my battery isnt dead

That's not very encouraging and nice thing to say.We all came here as newbies,not a big deal.
We all hate to see a guy loose his device like this,after all it's a developer's forum,we shud be atleast concerned and help out,if we can.
Hope you two be able to get your devices working again soon.
Good luck
Fixed
I just wanted to thank everyone for your help , i got my new battery in yesterday and my phone booted up flashed back to at&t orginal rom. Thank So Much.....
