I was flashing my brothers phone for him, and I was using the CID Workaround, and it completed, and then after a hard reset the device wouldnt go past the first splash screen.. pllease help
If your able to get into bootloader mode then you should be able to flash another rom such as wizard love or your providers rom.
If you read the thread on unlocking G4 cid locked using shell tool you will see what i mean. I personally was stuck in a very similar situation and received help, so the info you need might be in that thread.

i used the shell tool, but i just got stuck on the first splash after i did that.... here are device specs
Its a Cingular 8125, obivously g4
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL 2.25.0001
It doesnt get past bootloader, and I would really like to put WM6 on it.
At this point, I've tried various other ROMs and nothing is working. Any thoughts or ideas at all would be appreciated. Thanks.
jUST DO WHAT I SAY
gREETINGS,
Just follow this steps u will be out of it.
Press and hold the camera button and reset the phone, hold the camera button until you see the tri color screen (bootloader), when u are on tri color screen connect the USB with your phone(dont see for active sync it wont recognise but it will be connected), and then flash your phone with the rom your provider has given you i.e, the original rom and DONT flash it with shell tool use the exe file of the rom.
When you are at the original rom then try to flash the WM6 with shell tool and follow the instruction properly.
Thanks

I cannot do that because the Carrier ROMs that I have aren't for G4, so they arent working. I have three different carrier ROMs for my phone.. and none of them work.

Check your email, I downloaded and zip works fine here.
i'm facing this problem right now , i will solve it with the original rom .
the problem started when i used shelltool to upgrade my G4 CID Locked to windows mobile 6 crossbow underground edition .
i will give it another try when i get my device alive again ,
any suggestions for the WM6 underground to make it work using shelltool on my wiza 200 ??
--------------------- Edit -----------------------
Finally i solved the problem and installed Crossbow WM6 underground edition .
all i did is to install the original rom from provider and then used shelltool to install WM6 .
i want to mention that my wiza200 is G4 and its CID Locked .
Huge thanx to mUn , you are da man
Mmm
I've tried underground wm6, but flashing till 96%, then error 302. I've searching for love rom few hours at night, then finally found, it is using the same flashing frontend (but in italian? language), flashed ok, phone's running. I've tried some few other wm6 roms, but always errors like "too old, get new one" or once it was probably fake, because it loaded exactly the same ROM as love one is. So, now I've probably stuck on WM5 at all

Mine is G4, dunno if cid is locked or not. I've flashed it as I said with wizard love rom and working without problems. I've tried that again this morning, to flash from love rom, but the same. At 96% it hangs, error 302 Communication error, then starts recovery process, phone goes to bootloader mode. Then is possible to flash it with love rom again with no problem
g4
i have a g4 wizard using the shell tool i have chaged my rom on my phone sometimes 3 times a week just to test them out
the shell tool works if you cant download from the forum here is the link for it
http://rapidshare.com/files/17787647/ShellTool_bugfixed.zip
G4
yes, but when I run shelltool, and press get rom info, all fields states N/A
info from phone is:
ROM Version: 2.26.10.2 WWE
Radio: 2.25.11
ExtROM: 2.26.10.105
IPL/SPL: 2.17.0001
And anyway, dunno exactly which rom for WM6 I can put in (I've just 5.underground_edition_Crossbow_ROM.exe which stucks at 96% with 302 error)
well, I'm dumb, mislooked one stupid thing. Everything passed without errors, Windows Mobile 6 is up and running
happy to know that , the problem was installing rapi ha ??
WBR
No, not really, rapi and that second cab was in device, it was restarted, but I did a mistake - i didn't copied that desired rom into updater directory - that was why were all fields N/A... did that, flashed on first try, without problem
I had the same problem, orginal rom from the provider, and I can reflash it again.....
THX for the info......
ROM verion and link location
Hi lobiik,
which ROM did you use for your device, as you comments above:
"i didn't copied that desired rom into updater directory "
can you please point me to location where i can get the ROM, also proper steps to install the same.
Thanks,
Ajay
HELP!!!!!!!!
I tried flash my G3 with shelltools the program said it worked well i did hard reset then i turned it on it is stuck on 1st front screen bootloader mode is stuck i dont know what is is my device bricked
---------------------edit--------------------------
im a newbie
Wow, what an awesome night this has been. Busted out my used MDA that I paid $180 for, didn't register in back of my head as I saw it boot with IPL/SPL 2.260001 even though I read that meant its a G4. Tried to downgrade it to button 1.05, ROM said wouldent work with my device, another clue that fell on dead ears as I went straight to flashing it with another program. Its totally bricked, not I need to go into bootloder and flash bricked but now a $180 paperweight. I think ill contact HTC, see if its still under warranty or if they have a repair service or maybe sell on ebay at loss. Auesomeness.
Just blame yourself by not carefully reading the stickies...
happened many times to me....
http://www.o2online.de/nw/support/downloads/software/xda/older/xdaminis/index.html
download this "update" and flash your wizard with it in bootloader mode. Should fix the problem.
PM if you need help
No...mikejj2004's Wizard should be completely bricked that can't even power on due to flashing incorrect IPL and SPL to a G4 Wizard.
Is there absolutely no way you can get the phone to bootloader mode? what I would reccomend is try pulling the battery out untill the screen goes black and then put it back in then plug the phone in and charge it till the light turns green and then hold the camera button while pressing the power button to get back to bootloader and load manufacturer rom.
Maybe I read wrong and you have already tried to get back to bootloader but if not then I would give it a try. As long as phone can make it to bootloader and has more than 50% charge, you can get it back to manufacturer's rom.
Take a look at this thread, it tells you how to force bootloader given your battery is good enough to turn the device on. CLICK HERE
Good luck my friend.
P.S. Please from now on, ALWAYS read all directions and warnings before attempting to do something you may not understand. That is how these kind of things happen and I would say it sucks to be the proud owner of a $180 paper weight.
mikes device is totally gone. happend to me last week. luckily i still had a nice amount of time left in my warranty so AT&T gave me a replacement yesterday.
yea well lets just hope that since he bought it used that he actually has a warranty...
thats how i did it.
charged the battery at in my friends wizard, put the battery in, held down the camera button and switched it on, voila rainbow screen.
Then i just ran the original O2 upgrade utility.
Not just once!

if he got it off ebay or something hes f**ked. no warranty on that
pkoper, you don't understand the difference between battery failure and bricking.
If a device is bricked due to flashing G3 IPL to G4 wizard, the G3 IPL cannot commuicate with G4 chip and tell it to power on, so the device is RIP whatever you are trying to do unless reprogram the G4 chip using a external JTAG connecter.

beleive it or not, they gave me a warranty exchange for an eBay bought phone.
had warranty on the phone prior, and they didn't recognize that I was 'warrantying' a differn't phone. Either they screwed up, or they don't care - I got a warranty exchange on an eBay bought phone.
Just a question..
i have read over the wiki that if it has 3 zeros "000" after 2.xx. then
it is still a G4 device..
then in your post, you have bricked your G4 device with 2.26.0001..
it is contradicting whats written in the wiki..
my fone has these:
IPL/SPL 2.26.0001
GSm 2.25.11
OS 2.26.10.2
is it a G3 or G4?
thanks..
rizortiz
That is a G4!
just a querry my intelligent friends... =)
hi..
i just bought a new fone.. t-mobile
my fone reads:
ROM version: 2.26.10.2 WWE
ROM date: 6/7/06
Radio version: 02.25.11
Protocol version: 4.1.13.12
ExtROM version: 2.26.10.105
i reseted my fone, i got:
IPL/SPL 2.26.0001
GSM 2.25.11
OS 2.26.10.2
others says 2.26.0001 is a G4, but in the wiki it says its still G3..
am confused.. is my device G3 or G4?
rizortiz
g4 for sure, cause .0001
really..
why is it that in the wiki..
'Note: Some people might be confused by the fact that it says G3s only have 2 zeros. That is in reference to the part AFTER is says "or". If you have 2.26 has you IPL and SPL then you have a G3 Wizard.'
the last line there says that if it has an SPL/IPL of 2.26. it is still a G3 device..
thanks.
the wiki states that phones with "2.xx" would be g3. A wizard with "2.xx.000x" would be g4.
Notice the lack of trailing zeros.
Always Always Always If your phone's ipl/spl ends with .000x it is G4.
I lost my post virginity for this. I hope it helped.
100% G4.
If you don't believe, just flash a IPL to it and wait for a brick being created...
Please i think i ve brick my G4 ive send a rom WM6 in french for G4 and now fone start and after freeze on information product

As long as you can get into the bootloader screen theres a good chance it can be saved... Press the Camera button then turn it on, there should be a rainbow screen, if you get that you're golden. Get a rom called 'Wizard Love' or your original operator rom and flash it, it'll work.
Hey guys I'm a newbie... I was playing around and trying to flash a new rom onto my wizard/8125. The program stopped responding on my PC so I had to restart it. Now my phone is stuck in the tricolor boot screen. It says USB is connected but activesync won't recognize it.
IPL. 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.01ip
Please help me I just go the phone working yesterday..
The reason activesync won't recognize it is because the activesync program isn't installed on your device, provided the windows mobile can't start. At the boot screen, you can still flash the device. However, I wouldn't play around with flashing your 8125 unless you know what you're doing; there's a chance that you could turn your phone into a brick.
Try flashing it with the Wizard Love rom found here.
You might need the English Update Utility files found here.
Then, if your phone is CID locked, you can use the G4 SoftSPL from this post to flash it with the G4 safe rom of your choice. My 8125 would often freeze at 99% in the update process, but flashing first with Wizard Love would do the trick.
I got it. Thanks for you're help though. I just flashed it with a new ROM program and seemed to work just fine. Thanks again
I have exactly the same problem I am also stuck and I am also showing the IPL. 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.01ip
How did you Supa solve your problem?
I reached this stage after sucessfully installing hardspl and CID_unlocking and then tried to upgade to WM6 and failed to do a hard reset instead remove battery ( I know very stupid )
MDA3 Blue Angel
MDA Artemis
MDA Touch
He All, I managed to resolve by reflashing using ROM 1.1 CID-locked edition by ppctuning.org by simply running it-
Thank you for allowing me to do a lot of reading fro this useful forum

help me ...
You have a G4, and its CID Locked. You'll need to flash the Wizard_Love rom - it will install sucessfully on G4 Cid Locked - and then cid unlock it, before trying to install any other ROM. You need to be carefull not to flash rom's with IPL/SPL information, that includes official ones from T-Mobile!
My ELF (Soft Black) is also stuck in the tri-color screen after trying to flash it.
IPL 1.15.0002
SPL 1.15.0000
Please HELP!!!!
First of all, thanks to all the uber-smart people in the forum that make new toys for my Wizard!
Rabbid, if yours is a Wizard G4, install the Wizard Love ROM as dferreira suggested. If you don't know, check sticky posts on how to ID your phone.
I had the same problem, stuck at the loader screen, because I forgot to soft-unlock my phone.
That's the last time I reflash my phone at 2 AM, after being up since 6AM the previous day
Wizard Love was useful for me!
I had the same problem (tricolor screen), but I flashed my Qtek A9100 and it came again! (I´m so happy)
the rom that I used was Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2.
I hope it be useful for all you, guys!
I have a question. If I was wrong flashed G4 Hard-SPL unlocked device, can I fix the problem using RUU? Usually, I used soft-SPL.
Thanks for the responses on this thread! lol
I used the Wizard love and I do have a g4 phone I checked a million times.
I used the process to Hardspl my T-mobile Wizard and when I turn the phone completely off and on it is the Love Wizard. I got the steps from the XDA Developers Wiki Site.
I wanted to use the Slim Edition of WM6.1 and I have downloaded the zip( or rar) but what do I need to do next. I thought I knew about the flash process because I had experience flashing with GBA and SP but apparently I know nothing.
What I originally did was run the hard-spl G4 program but when the screen popped up to install a ruu ( or the os i gussed) I closed out of it and instead opened the boot loader program that was located in the Slim Edition Folder. I lost connection to my g4 at the white screen...naturally panicked for 30 mins and then realized the soft reset button and did the manual boot loader screen. I then read this forum about the love wizard so just installed it out of fear to try the slim version again.
Also, the XDA Developer process says that the HardSPl process unlocks both SIM and CID is that incorrect? And do I need to be concerned with downloading Radios for my g4 model? Any help or flame would be appreciated at this point. Thanks.
All I want to do is use the T-mobile Wizard (g4) with WM6 or MW6.1 and for it to be unlocked.
Again, Thanks for your time

Well,as you mentioned,its a G4 phone,it cannot be CID unlocked completely like a G3 device,however,it can be upgraded to wm6 with 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL',if you apply "hardSPL' it'll semi CID unlock the phone by flashing a patched IPL/SPL to the phone to trick it to think its CID unlocked temporarily,but it'll stay CID unlocked and "HardSPL' as long as you intentionally don't remove it and you can flash any wm6 or wm6.1 Rom on it. But always be warned that don't ever flash any Rom which have IPL/SPL included in it,it'll 'Brick' the phone.
Did you apply 'HardSPL' successfully ? what IPL/SPL... ? it displays at present.
Secondly,if you didn't have any signal quality or call missing problem with your present Radio Rom installed,then there's no need to upgrade.Some custom build wm6 or 6.1 Roms,do already include updated Radio Roms,which get flashed durinf Rom (OS) upgrade.
Thanks so much for responding.
I don't know what all happened to be honest. When I was using the Hardlsp G4 program after I got the white screen I thought I would cancel the rom that it wanted to install and install the Slim Edition. I was thinking that it was installing an OS and I wanted to substitute it for WM6.1 Slim edition I didn't know that I was cancelling out of the WM6 rom softspl . So to be honest I though I just Hardslp it but I didn't use the softslp which comes with the temporary CID unlock? Maybe that sounds right lol.
Regardless, Now I'm tring to figure out what to do obviously this phone works with T-mobile only and so I thought I could CID Unlock it and SIM unlock it with that program and now I'm thinking i'm screwed lol.
If I followed the HARDSLP directions again to the letter would I get the phone temerporarly CID & SIM unlocked so I can use it or have I messed it up to much? Oh, and the phone seems to be getting a signal although I can't call anyone but the bars are showing beside the indicator.
I did get an issue were when my phone went white it dissconected from activesync and so I had to manual get to the bootloader screen anyway.

Well, with your present IPL/SPL 2.25.0001,its not HardSPL,as you say it didn't complete and you closed it,therefore,its still with its original official bootloaders (IPL/SPL),no harm is done yet.
Now,if you wish to upgrade the phone to wm6,either you can do it with SoftSPL, which'll just temporarily trick the phone into CID unlock and flash the rom,but it'll revert back to CID locked status after the reboot of the phone and if you wish to replace the rom,you'll again have to apply SoftSPL again.Every time you want to change roms,you'll have to apply SoftSPL,but if you apply HardSPL once,it'll remain HardSPL and temporarily tricked into CID unlocked status till you don't remove it.You don't have to apply HardSPL again and again to flash roms,its possible to flash roms easily.but never flash a rom which contains IPL/SPL in it even the official Rom in HardSPL status.If ever you wish to revert back to official rom,first remove the HardSPL and flash the official Bootloaders (IPL/SPL) and then flash the official Rom.
Ahh Thanks a Million.
Zabardast_1. I know it sucks explaining that stuff a million times but it really helped me.
So, If I was wanting to get the Slim Edition WM6.1 I could just
Run HardSLP Program and complete the stepes provided
Then hook the phone up to the computer while its in windows os and then click the bootloader app for Slim Edition? Thus Installing Slim Edition
Then use the the lolwoz03 program to unlock my sim?
Or would the last step not be needed because of hardslp?
I do have Love Wizard on here so when I start the phone up those isp/lsp is what i got.
I think thats the last of my questions and then i'll leave you all alone lol

Yup! First apply 'HardSPL' correctly,read the HardSPL thread carefully understand the method and do it correctly and let it complete,the screen will certainly go white,don't be afraid,its the essential part, it'll only take a minute or so,if it doesn't go white,then consider something is not correct ,after successful application of HardSPL,the phone will reboot and IPL will be 2.21.0001 and the SPL is 2.21.olip,it confirms the successful application of HardSPL.Now its ready to flash any wm6 or 6.1 rom,just hook up the phone and run the RUU in the rom,it'll start to upgrade
Well,regarding SIM unlock with lokiwiz03,you shud do it before HardSPL its much recommended.HardSPL will only flash the patched IPL/SPL which let your device think it has SuperCID (aka CID unlocked) but doesn't SIM unlock,for SIM unlock you have to use lokiwiz03 and generate a SIM unlocking code which you'll insert when using another SIM.
Well, Thanks again
All I know is when I run Lokiwiz it says it can't copy files and it might be inuse. So if there is a better way of unlocking or a way of unlocking the sim after i do the hardslp i'm up for it haha whatever works the best. I think it says it can't find the C:/windows/itsutils.dll and then it says it can't save a certian bat file because it doesn't exsit.
Okay I fixed it by copying the files Cert_SPCS and EnableRapi to folder Lokiwiz03 was in on my computer.
Well, I ran the SlimEditon romupdate utility and it took my phone to tri color screen then activesync discconected and it says it can't connect to my phone now. So did I click on the wrong program?
Thanks a million + Zar
I read something like If I take the .nbf file and transfer it into the muns ruu folder and run muns ruu that it should fix it but it says something about an aku and far when i start the program so I'm hesitent. Also I'm stuck in the Bootloader screen? Should I use the wizard love rom again and then when it finishes use the slimedition with muns ruu?
Well I did that from the bootloader screen (tricolor Screen) and slimedition works the only thing that sucks is that it still shows the wizard love pic when displaying my ipl slp and gsm info...

Your phone is still running wizard_love_rom,it didn't upgrade to slimEdition,perhaps its still not correctly with HardSPL patched IPL/SPL,did you get it HardSPL ?
Well, everything else works fine. I think I soft flashed my phone back when I messed up and so it reset the loader screen with the ipl spl info and then when I hard Slp over top of it the hardslp just didn't remove the screen. It says all the information that it should it just has that love picture on it that is kinda emberresing but I'll live with it to have a working phone and not a shinny brick.
Thanks for everything again and again Zar, Unless you can tell me how to show the battery life correctly on the main screen in Slim Edition I finally don't have anymore questions for you . lol
Thanks
just to be straight to the point. I have a Wizard O2 mini S and have upgraded to hard SPL successfully and managed to use WM6 for a while. few days ago, My brother accidentally run an orriginal wizard rom upgrade pack (contained IPL/SPL) and now my device doesn't work and my PC couldnot detect this wizard device in any mode (normal boot mode or USB - bootloader mode). However it still can enter the 2 bellow modes...
2. At normal boot: just only display and stuck at bellow message/info
_ IPL 2.21.0001
_ SPL 2.21.olip
_ GSM 02.19.11
_ OS 6.1.0.0
1. Bootloader: tri-color trip and indicating in USB status with following info but also could not detect by PC too.
_ IPL 2.21.0001
_ SPL 2.21.olip
I have read some info in the forum saying that you will bricked it if you run a rom upgrade contain SPL/IPL on an Olip (hard SPL) device. So i think this is my case but i don't know if there is any expert or user have found a solution to work over this case at this state... or any useful suggestion from you all might help me!! I definitely don't want an expensive paperweight...
Any suggestion of you all will be very much gratefull.

If it gets into Bootloaders(Tricolor) and detects usb,it means its connecting with the pc.Try to flash any wm6 rom and see if it boots up normal,coz a Bricked phone won't either Power On,charge or get into Bootloaders,you might be in luck there.
hi zabardast, thank you very much for your prompt reply... i will try to do as u say... As you said... the phone is still able to charge itself when i conect it to the USB... Hope it will work when i flash with a new rom...
Will keep u all updated with the process. Thanks again
Try the Love Rom if WM6 roms fail. The RUU is compatible with a G4

similar problem faced,i install ampv1 rom on my kjam & wrking well but i tried to ensure that battery is "some how" 100% as my phone wont boot....but now working well.
1stly it failed (and i lose my hope)
but
i was trying to buy nokia n95 but can get it so tried once again....
hey it works (i think that it worked becoz i took out batter for 2days and possibily date went back to 2006)
so u can try this.
As long as you can see the 3 color ( bootoader) there is still hope
you can fix it just have to have a little courage... anyway there is nothing to loose anymore its either claim it as it is ... brick( I am telling you it is not bricked... you can still see the 3 colors right?) or go on the flashing part... more excitement
flash wizard love first and choose any rom here I think every rom has its own advantages and disadvantages... with that said ... happy ROM hunting
Good news...Prolem Fix
Good news, I've managed to get my wizard fixed... and now I would like to share with you all how i do it...
1. get a rom without IPL/SPL/Extended rom . In my case i got a slim version of WM6.1 (Slim-v3.0a) from pdaviet http://pdaviet.com/showthread.php?t=24923.
2. You also need to pay attention at the RUUResource.dll file which newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe pack will need to run your upgrade (I get it by extracting from the original ship rom pack for your device). If you receive an error message when u run the wizard_noid saying that it can not detect the RUU dll then just rename the RUUResource.dll to whatever it say.
3. get your phone to boat loader-USB mode and upgrade it with newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe (but remember some other version might not work, in my case i tried with several as i have quite number versions of them). If you like u can get the one i used.
Note: If you fail in running the wizard (because the usb connection is lost even if you see the USB status on it), remove the battery of your device, place it back then get to bootloader-USB connection mode and run the process again.
4. when the process finish, make a hard reset.
special thanks to the owners of the lovely tools and the rom I used.
hey, im new but have read many of the pages here. i have burnt roms to my first wiz (G3) unlocked it and everything went well. i came about a wiz (G4) last week wm5 bland rom locked and want to get wm6 on it so after my research i went to the IMEI unlock site and purchased the unlock for the g4
the unlock seemed to go well the first time but, it won't come out of boot loader mode
i ran hornet o.10 for g4 it runs and completed to 100 % and then on reboot it comes up with the boot screen again
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21
i ran the tnt 1933 rom this morning and it completed 100% but still i have a boot screen

Are you sure SPL is 2.21 and not 2.21.0001 as IPL 2.21.0001 ?
Well,if its 2.21 only,the phone's got mixed Bootloaders (IPL/SPL),IPL 2.21.0001 are G4 and SPL 2.21 is G3,I don't know how you got it,but your phone is 'Bricked'
mmm it figures
so it appears there could be a problem with the imei program,
as i said it never came out of boot mode after the unlock
and no errors were shown ...
i could get another and replaced the main board, this one is in new condition
except for the custom bricked rom . in the future i will not play with a g4
thanks for the diagnosis, no way to flash a new spl / ipl ... i did read that if
it booted you could get it back in some chance cases .. i am curious as to how this happened (others not doing this for a hobby could brick there only phone)
step 1 - ran imei unlock
never came out of boot mode after
2- flashing the to above roms said to be G4 safe
i never look to see what the ipl / spl were before
i looked with the wizard tool but didn't save it
well you live and learn, it's good for parts now off to ebay for another crack at it ...
thanks everyone ... the best thing about this phone is everything you can do to it
with help from those who know ...
I recommend trying to flash back to original service provider ROM, then unlock again and try another. As long as you can get to bootloader (tri-color screen), there's still hope for your phone. When it's in this mode, and you plug in the USB, does it say USB at the bottom of the phone screen? If so, you are not dead yet.
Custom build wm6 roms like TNT etc... never Brick a G4 phone as no IPL/SPL is included in them,they are completely safe for G4 devices.What I can gather,it must be the wrong imei unlock code perhaps.
Well,like Myrddin Wyllt said,there's no harm in trying,so if it gets into Bootloaders,try to flash the official rom and if there's an error "wrong update utility" ,replace the RUU in the rom with this RUU and run this RUU,hope it might work.

ok, i swapped out every RUU i could find i get errors from
read file
invalid vendor id
wrong update utility
im too new to figure this out ..can you extract a ipl / spl from an
official rom and then flash that to get the boot loader's back in sync
i found the att 8125 ipl /spl nbf when i flash, it runs to 100% reboots but no changes
anyone have a link to flashing just the ipl / spl on the g4
i am most thankful for any advise ..
try running the hardspl on phone, it might just work to revert it back to a G4 spl.
Link to HardSPL : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332320
and G4 ipl and spl here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=342744
Also I paid to the IMEI Check and I had to change the plate because the PDA died as yours. E had not returned to the money of the IMEI Check only reply to me was that it had to change of plate ..... It had the unblocked CID?
bastards
yes they won't return my money ... somehow they bricked my phone
i would use the hard /spl and not the imei those guys are assholes
