I was trying to flash my G4 wizard with faria wm6 rom and it kept stopping at 99% and telling me to unplug usb and battery then re pluggin usb and hit next so that was gonna b a never ending circle so I searched Google and found RUU_Prodigy_2210206_22102109_021911_TMO_UK_WWE_Ship
flashed that and worked. (should have left it and called it a day but i wanted to try wm6 so found a new version of shelltool_bugfixed_2 tried again. Within 3 mins there was an error on the pda screen but the flash told me not to touch anything so I left it 20 mins. Did "ctrl, alt, del" and the program was not responding so I closed it. Now when I turn the phone on it hangs on the t mobile splash screen with my IPL/SPL. I did the reset with the camera button held in I get the the boot screen/3 colour screen and when I plug in usb pc makes noise saying it found it but then I try flash using t mobile rom it gives me error 274 cant connect make sure usb is in.
I tried doing searches for "error 274" but don't return any finds which I thought was wrong so to test the search button I done a search for "G4" same again =(
sorry for such a long post.
K well I finally got the t mobile basic rom back on just kept pressing buttons on the phone while it was searching for it, not very technical I know! now should I try a 3rd time to get WM6? u know the saying "3rd time lucky!"

Go back and read some more. Basically im going to tell you what you already know.
Do you know if you have a G3/G4 phone? Dont know read the stickies at the top of the forums to find out. This info is important if you dont want your ppc to be a paperweight.
Are you flashing back to an official carrier rom each time it fails?
Once you install the two cab files wait about 5 minutes then restart using the power button. Plug it back into your PC. Make sure there is nothing running in the background like any spyware or antivirus. Disable these until the process is over. Take out your memory card if you have one. Go into your comm manager and turn off your radio(so no one calls during the flash and mess' it up).
Now once you do all of the above now you can start the process. Once the process has started just get away from the computer, dont use it at all not even to check your email,surf the web, play solitaire, just go take the trash out or let your dog run loose for a few minutes. Make sure you check the time you start.
Anyways when it is has started, shelltools says about 15 mins. If yours says "not responding", thats ok, just let it sit for about 30 mins(sometimes shell will freeze up like it has for me). Now after about 30 mins have passed go ahead and disconnect everything. Now give it a hard reset(Hold the comm manger and voice dial buttons while sticking the stylus into the reset hole, take it out. Dont let go of the two buttons until it tells you to press the send button. Press send and now you should able to use your newly upgraded wizard. Give it a little bit of time as it will be a little slow booting up. Some people are lucky and its goes through the first time and others arent and have to do it 3 or 4 more times to get it right.
Now this is where i get mean and tell you to go back and read its easy to get cocky and think you know it all but once it all goes bad, ouch there goes some patches of hair on your head.
Im not calling you cocky now, im just saying it seems easy but its easy to make simple mistakes also. SO all in all Good luck man.
well i did the silly thing and did a flash upgrade on my atom exec to WM6 v7
it went 100% restarted fine
but now!!!!! im stuck on the align screen it doesnt listen to my taps, if i move my fingers all over the screen it eventually pick it up but it isnt accurate enough so keeps restarting the test align session... HELP PLEASE i have meetings comming up and need this phone
i can get into boot loader mode but when i connect phone to laptop it doesnt connect active sync while in bootloader mode...
can i skip this screen align somehow
You are not suppose to upgrade the EXEC with the ROM .
Check out the WIKIPEDIA ATOM solutions page for assistance.
I think therz a way to get back to the ORIGINAL ROM , ask a SENIOR for help also search the forums for older posts , i remember someone with ths same problem as yours
really? i just ran the utility here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333165
without making any changes to it
how do i go back to original pleaseeee help someone... if i got in boot loader mode and run the same upgrade utility (as linked above) it lets me click upgrade but then quickly says connection failed and then my bootroom reads:
"please use DSUU in OS mode and sync with PC first!!!
where do i get original and how do i do it please... maybe there should be a sticky for stuff ups like this
wow no one is kind enough to help... ive tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331818&page=1
but it freezes on 6% and i took the advise read in the wiki to hard reboot then run DSUU , and it does the same thing (stuck at 6%)
well now i have the wm5 starting but its stuck again on the tap the screen? ignoring my taps...
could it be my screen is stuffed? although it worked before the flash
okay !!! progress!!!! ....'
ive finally called o2 and put their rom and it works to a certain point, the align screen detects my taps but it just keeps repeating over n over n over asking me to keep taping around the screen???
Hard Reset
I think hard reseting it once should solve the issue...........if it doesn't try reflashing it once again.....worked for me............brute force is needed sometime
no i figured its screwed my digitzer somehow so im asking for calibration data in other post
Hi
When I turn on my phone all it shows is red, green, blue and white stripes across the screen with the following text:
ROSE100
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-Rose (LED) v10
MicroP-Rose (key) v5
PCBID 0x80
RID 0x0
At the bottom of the screen it also says "Serial", but displays no actual serial. Please see attached pic.
Please help guys. Problem initially started when phone collected dew on cold morning (camping).
Thanks!!!
You seem to be in the "flash screen".. I did that on my phone by accident, pressing power and one of the volume buttons.. Try pulling the battery out, put it back and see if it starts normally.
I have the exact same problem. Mine happened all of a sudden for no reason after turning my phone off and trying to turn it back on. Please post if you find a solution
Well, you can try to reflash your ROM. Many official ROMs can be found here.
Hi, I got the roms, but where can I read how to put the new one on my phone using my computer?
Ok, I got it I just run the .exe file to update my rom. However, there is just one problem, it says you should connect activesync to your phone. How tf do I connect activesync as my phone does not load any OS?! I tried without activesync but it doesnt work - it freezes on 0% update and after a while it runs some kind of recovery steps. So how do I get pass the activesync thing? Thanks
You can't upgrade ROM via activesync if u don't have acces to windows mobile, you can do it only from SD card.
Here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=M7OEOF2N (pass: xda) you find a Rose service manual and at the page 45 you find "ROM Image upgrade thru SD card" ...it's not complicated, read carrefuly.
Ok I read it but when I press the power button for the second time it says "No image file". I renamed the file to RoseIMG.NBH. What am I doing wrong?
I don't know what are you doing wrong ...try to rename the file to "ROSEIMG.nbh". Where did you download the ROM? ...I recomend you to put the same ROM you have on device because you don't have installed HardSPL (and I don't know if you can install it from SD card). Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=599520 are the officials roms for S740.
PS: I never tried this method on S740, I do it once on tytn II and works perfectly.
Here is how I got it to work:
Left it in the boot mode with the colorful screen until the battery is decharged enough, then tried to put it on again and it automatically turns off. So I put the USB cable in it and walla it started loading the battery and it turned on automatically and loaded WM. However, I still can not flush my ROM even through activesync.. but I am glad I can use it again.
something many forget with this fault, and I have seen quite a few is it is often not a rom issue but a hardware problem... in this case it may be a faulty up volume button, or maybe the plastic cap has shifted keeping the button held down, does the button still click ok?
The monet was a swine for the camera button giving up the ghost and doing nothing but dropping to boot loader......
Hi,
I have a problem with my HTC HD2, thing is that the phone it's not booting correctly, all i got when i power on the device, it's an emty white screen... without the green HTC letters.
I got installed a cooked ROM, BsB Beast 6.1, with radio 2.12.50.02_2, and i was running Android from SD when all this **** started, two weeks ago. The phone battery ran out while i was on Android, a couple of hours later... i got home and plugged the phone for charging. When i pressed the power button, the phone boots with that blank screen.
I can get into the bootloader, and it's showing this info (whitout the underscores):
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-1.42.HSPL XE
_____________0x05
_____________0x30
CotullaHSPL
I've tried many different things and none seems to do anything at all:
- First of all, i did a hard reset. The process ends OK but the phone stays doing the same
- Then, i tried to flash again the same ROM i was using. I was unable to do that by using CustomRUU and PC connection. The phone it's detected by the PC, and the bootloader screen shows that it's conneted by "USB". Then, i executed the CustomRUU app, following all the steps and, when the phone should start flashing the progress bar doesn't get past 0%, both the phone display and PC. After a few minutes, CustomRUU gives an error saying "timeout" connection. I've tried to do this from different USB ports and different PCs with the same result.
- After those fails, i tried to flash again the cooked rom from SDCARD. The process ends OK, saying "Update Complete". Then, i rebooted the phone but the blank screen remains the same way. That cooked ROM doesn't have radio.
- After that, i decided to flash a stock ROM. First, i tried to make a "Task 29" to the phone, but i got the same problem than with the cooked ROM. The progress bar doesn't get past 0%. With the stock ROM the problem was the same again. Then, i tried to flash the stock ROM from SDCARD. The process stops at X% saying 0018003 RADIO - FAIL. I've got this error each time i try to flash a ROM with radio or a radio itself.
- I was able to do a "task 29" by using MTTY, but nothing changes when i try to flash any ROM after that.
- i've tried to upgrade my HSPL, by using both HSPL2 and HSPL3. Both programs detects my version of HSPL, then the process starts and ends saying "Succesfully done" but nothing changes in my bootloader, it's still saying that i got 1.42.HSPL
Since i can get to the bootloader, i hope to have any chance to get this device back to life.
I've readed some posts here and within other forums, i've tried with many different cooked or stock ROMS but nothing works
I hope to find help here, thanks in advance and, sorry if my speaking it's not 100% correct
yet another "i was running android and...........now my phone won't boot".. thread. makes me glad i don't bother with android...tried it once and had to hard reset, never touched it since, heh.
for the sticking at 0%,and timeouts etc, try and always enter bootloader yourself, then wait for serial to become usb, and then run customruu. this way you can also visually confirm hspl is there(or not there, depending what you are doing) and it should cure certainly the timeouts.
if i were you, i'd concentrate on getting back to stock, and start over.(only skimmed your post, i'm mobile, so sorry if i say something you already did.)
get into bootloader, get rid of hspl if it s there,(run hspl2 and choose 1.66.0000) then back into bootloader(you should soon get used to holding vol down as each stage completes to reenter bootloader) then try flash your CORRECT stock rom via usb. if that fails try it using the sd card method.
Thanks for answering, samsamuel.
I haven't looked into the Android section for threads with the same problem i got, maybe i should have started that way
Each time I enter the bootloader, i'm doing as you've said (believe me... in these days i've become a "master" on pushing power button with vol. down )
I always wait for the bootloader to finish loading, then i plug the phone to my PC, wait again for "Serial" turns into "USB" and, then, start the flashing process.
I'll try to do what you said with HSPL2, to select 1.66.000. Each time i've tried with different HSPLs, i've selected 1.66.HSPL or 2.08.HSPL... so, i guess i should try with that.
I'll be updating this thread as soon as i got news.
/me edit
I must to say, that Android was running "fine" (some minor problems when trying to wake up the phone, but nothing critical apart from this disaster). By the record, i didn't have installed dual boot... the phone always boots into WinMo
Hi again,
I have tried to update my SPL to 1.66.000 without success, despite what HSPL2 says ("Succesfully done")
Any thought about this? I can't understand why those programs are saying "OK" but are doing nothing
thanks in advance
not seen it first hand but have read several threads where the update seems to work but nothing changes. not really sure as to cause or cure, sorry.
I wonder if is there a way to make HSPL2 / HSPL3 to leave traces or any log of what they are doing... in order to see why my phone is ignoring them
Little bump, looking for more help
Is this the right subforum to post this things?
Tried to unroot, now I have this. Been trying to flash through Odin (PDA md5 file only), gets to 'system', goes about 10 minutes then fails. Nothing on sd card. Im hoping I can save this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is a retail Wifi.
I have the correct USB drivers and can see it in device manager but not in explorer. I do not have the correct ADB SDK, cant seem to find it.
Been reading several threads and watching vids on youtube, nothing seems to do the trick. Im stuck but hopefully not bumming.
This may or may not work for most but this worked heavily for my 2 units that had the same issue. One with a broken nvflash, the other that faced a bootloop and never booted up again. Took almost a week and I felt almost all hope was gone because the bloody service centre's refused to accept the unit's as they were not purchased from the region, rather online. Scumbag Samsung .
[!] This is usually a 90% fix for both broken nvflashes/deep sleep of death, considering you haven't drowned your Tab by now with no hope . I ask that you kindly attempt this once if you haven't before you QQ to the nearest Samsung center like I did.
- Drain your tablet
And by all mean's do so, The quickest way to get this done in less than 2 days or so (Depending on the battery percent charged) is to get a clear tape and tape around the power button pressed.
- Testing if you have drained it completely/Taped it right.
Connect the tablet via USB to your PC, make sure you have the NV Driver files [http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?t=1130574]
Just install the driver and proceed to the step where it asks about holding down the [Power button] +[ Volume+] and wait for the constant USB connect/disconnect sounds. It also helps to look at Device Manager to see if it still pops up.
When the battery is completely drained it will stop popping up in the device manager, and your ready to go.
MOST IMPORTANT STEP
You have only 1 and only 1 chance per drain to get this done right. Plug it into the socket charger and see if the charging icon should come up, after being fully drained you should see the charge icon should pop up [100% tested and works, this step is annoying but it's the tablet version of taking out the battery and popping it back in] and what ever you do, DON'T BOOT IT UP NORMALLY, instead press [Power Button] + [Volume -] keys and let go when you see the logo to get into fastboot mode.
Select the android buddy with the [Volume +] key and it will boot into Download Mode.
From here on out everything is easy sailing. Get the right firmware and Odin and flash the firmware you require. It doesn't matter what region you are from, the tablet is made to accept any regional firmware BUT the model number should be the same. Which mean's 7500 for 7500 ONLY.
Edit: Since you have only one chance per drain, I suggest you flash a stock firmware rather than flashing CWM to save it, Because CWM would only fix the recovery, It wouldn't fix the damaged bln. The fastest way to get a stock firmware is grabbing the stock firmware from the Overcome thread

Ok, killed it that long....actually, just havent had time to get into this or deal with the frustration.
Anyway, it did what it was supposed to, meaning the battery icon came on. then I booted to download mode, plugged it in to the PC and it hooked up to Odin. It ported and I started to load the md5 file. I get stuck at the bootloader.bin. Been sitting there for 40 minutes. Has not failed yet. What now??
Never mind, I am an idiot who needs to read more. Please ignore me.
