Am I at the right screen? - Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development

I was running Olipro's 2.4 unlocker and everything was working fine. I got to the part where it said "Current Device Info: (nothing was here, that's why I was worried) --TO-- 'Olipro's 2.40 Bootloader''
Now at this point, I tried disconnecting the phone (because it didn't look like there was a connection) and reconnecting it. No new info popped up. So I unplugged the phone and restarted the computer, what was recommended.
So right now, my phone displays:
'TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.40. Olipro
CPLD-9'
With the red, green, blue and white stripes, but I never installed anything really, I mean I never got past the part where it asked if that was the update I wanted to run. Does this mean I've got Olipro's bootloader installed? I tried rerunning the Hard-SPL-MFG but no connection can be established. I can't get any kind of connection with the USB. If I have to flash back to an older ROM, so be it, just let me know.
Also, I haven't tried a hard-reset yet, but I'm not at any screen, just a red, green, blue and white one with the above info on it.
What do I do now?

oh man.
keep the phone in it's current state and re-run the update.
just unplug and replug when told. ignore activesync. then continue on.
it will probably leave you in this multicolored bootloader when done which is fine.
Now just run the radio update.
Put back in bootloader mode pwr/camera/softreset and run the rom install.

Stuck after SoftSPL procedure

Hello there.
I´m really new but certanly i have read a lot on the forums. Still I have managed to mess everything once more.
I have a wizard love G4
ROM Version 2.26.10.2.wwe
Rom date 06/07/06
Radio 02.25.11
Protocol 4.1.13.12
ExtROM 2.26.10.105
Messed around with the splash screen from equinoxe and to make it work i needed to update the RUU from 2.00.1 that was on the installation files to RUU 2.5.2 that was extracted from an HTC.exe rom update download.
Finally it worked just fine.
Then, i decided to give it a go on the SoftSPL procedure in order to install the Black Diamond 2.0 touch rom on my phone so I placed the downloaded "Safe ROM" on the ROM folder. Started the application and everything was looking good. Then the RUU came up with the 2.00.1 version so I was a little worried, but then the so called white screen on the cell phone started but with a progress bar (how convenient)... I´m not sure if i was supposed to see the progress bar at all on the cell phone or just a full white screen.
Anyway, after 10 minutes give or take, the bar got to 100% and the pc software said Congratulations... but then the cell phone automatically restarted and inmediatelly it went to the bootloader three color screen.
I proceded with a hard reset before anything, right on the bootloader screen, (radio and voice buttons hold with reset button and then the send button accepting the restore to factory). Then the phone restarted but also in bootloader screen. So i decided to turn it off by holding the power button for a while. It did turn of, but this is where everything goes crazy... it does not turn on again... it even don´t show no led light when connecting the phone to the usb or the ac wall adapter...
This happened to me a few days ago using the shelltool with the same Black Diamond 2.0 Touch rom but probably i made a different mistake back then.
Anyway I removed the battery and the sim card and reinserted everything again, even tryed it out without the battery and direct connection.
When this happened to me the first time, I just leaved the phone without the battery all night and on the next day it turned on but on the bootloader so I drove it to our local unlocker that managed to re-install the wizard-love once again.
I´m wondering if anyone is having this same issues, or something similar.
Probably i should have ask first if the Black Diamond 2.0 was a safe g4 rom, which i´m not sure but won´t dare to try it again.
I had the same problem.
i'm afraid using the SoftSPL now :S
Try the TNT 5. I used soft spl to install tnt 5 from the wizard love rom.

They have a touch version u can think about.
Yes!!!! I love it now!
I downloaded the last SoftSPF. Now it runs a little slower on the first checking part but then it turned the screen all white!!!! Beautiful scary little issue that fortunatelly equinoxe stated on the flashing instructions.
Then I went for the TNT 5.0 Professional with HTC Home Plug-in on my CID LOCKED QTEK-9100 (But that it´s actually looking exactly like a 8125 Cingular), and it did it!.
One question tough... I´m running windows vista on my personal computer so I flashed the cell phone on another computer at my office that has windows xp, but still inside the TNT 5.0 Professional installation pack there is a RUU that states Windows Vista Update Utility. I´m wondering if this would actually run under vista... If so, then I believe that you can make SoftSPF also run under vista by just changing the 2.exe file on the SoftSPF compilation with this Vista_ROMUpdateUtility.exe file on the TNT 5.0 Professional compilation release.
Anyone care to try?
Probably I will be trying to flash a new radio with this RUU Vista utility under vista, to see if it flashes... If it does, then i don´t see why you can´t run try it out under vista.
I´m attaching only the RUU for vista so you can put inside any nk.nbf with it to use it under vista.

Your screen should turn white, completely white... Not white with a progress bar. That is the RUU that you were seeing. Haret.exe cause the screen to crash and then it turns completely white. THIS IS NORMAL.
Try using this version: SoftSPL - RC1. Before I got a G3 and CID unlocked it, this version of SoftSPL worked for me time and time again.
Thank Dan.
Actually the new SoftSPL worked like a charm. The screen went blank as a crash, and 10 minutes later i was on a TNT 5.0 Professional Qtek.

No problem... I know before I got my hands on a G3, thats exactly what I used to upgrade roms.

Did i brick my flippin phone?!?!

alright well im a noob but i thought i was roming correctly. i unlocked my phone and while i was in the tricolor screen i flashed dcd's 2.2.3 rom and now when the phone reboots its stuck on the yellow sprint screen even when i try doing a soft reset or removing the battery. it sounds pretty much like i bricked my phone but i wanted to consult you guys.
thanks
Install the Radio Rom as well
You need to install the Radio Rom as well.
where can i find the instructions to do so? i didnt notice any and last time i flashed the altel rom i didnt have this problem?
Posted for you assistance.
What bootloader? 2.10 or 2.40?
Make sure you go into activesync connection settings and disable use usb and activate activesync when phone connected.
If it's 2.10 then download 2.40 and upgrade.
Next do the upgrade to the new 3.27 radio.
Now put the phone into bootloader by pressing the power/camera/soft reset buttons and holding till tri-color screen shows up.
From here you are ready to install DCD's ROM.
Then if you want to use the MSVC find the .cab version or you can try the .exe too and install it. Then follow the instructions on my post to get the software working through your BT headset
i have already tried to activesync but since i cannot get to the home screen the phone will not sync. it is completely stuck on the 1st screen that apears on the phone when you do a soft reset (yellow screen with the sprint trademark across the screen). basically i need to figure out how to get my phone off that screen. any ideas??
Thoroughly Read Posts..
1. Go to Active Sync on your computer and open it.
2. Go to File > Connection Setting: Uncheck "Allow USB Connections"
3. Hold the camera and power buttons and reset the phone while holding these. This will take you to the bootloader screen.
Do you have both DCD 2.2.x and the 3.27 Radio?
You're installing 2 files when using DCD's Rom. It sounds like you have the Rom installed, but lack the radio. On to step 4.
4. Connect your phone once it's at the bootloader ( R/B/G screen) You'll see it change from Serial to USB.
5. Run 3.27.00.exe
6. Reset Phone

possibly bricked my Verizon xv6800 =(

First off, I've been flashing my phone for almost a year now. So I don't consider myself too big of a noob. I loaded scrosler's round 4 rom. Worked great! Until I did a soft reset. It put the phone in bootloader mode and I can't boot up at all.
Here's what I have:
Olipro SPL 2.40
Radio 3.42.50
Here's what I've tried to get it out of bootloader:
mtty1.42.exe
titan_exitbl.exe
No success. I'm able to install a ROM, but as soon as it reboots after 100%, it goes right back into bootloader.
Someone please tell me it's not bricked
Try reflashing your radio.
BTC
kill the active sync processes via the task manager, then put the phone back into the usb cradle, run the titan exit bootloader and it should work.

If no other suggestion works this will... But it sucks.... Flash a stock rom. I garuntee that will fix the problem. then just flash back. You don't have to flash a VZW ROM and I recommend against it. My new recommended ROM for unlocking and flashing is the Alltel ROM. Its got the latest radio in it (which you already have). Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
thanks for all the suggestions. i'm not sure what exactly went wrong, but i spent about a day and a half just to get it working again. it's somewhat stable now.
after flashing an older dcd rom, i was somehow able to get the OS to boot up, even after the auto soft reset. immediately i wanted to upgrade the bootloader to 2.47 since i've only found it in an exe(only can run from windows mobile) version. I then was able to flash the OEM MR1. Which automatically downgraded my radio. it was definitely the most stable thing i've flashed since the phone got all screwed up. i could soft reset as much as i wanted and didn't get the blue screen of death aka bootloader.
but of course, i couldn't be satisfied with no gps and no internet sharing. i use internet sharing more since i use it when i commute to work on BART (bay area's version of the subway) 50 min each way.
so now i'm on DCD's 3.2.6 ROM with 3.42.50 radio. so far it's somewhat stable. if i soft reset, i get the bootloader sometimes. but a couple solutions to the get the OS to boot back up is
1.) take the battery out for 20-30 seconds and power up
or
2.) take the battery out, plug in the computer usb or power usb with the battery still out. somehow resets the phone? i have no idea.
but i read somewhere that ROM's were causing people to have to take their battery out for 30 seconds to boot up. I doubt it was DCD's ROM's. But who knows, maybe i ran a bad radio file, ROM, or bootloader upgrade, that really caused the initial issues.
My only issue now other than getting the bootloader once in a while is that GPS isn't working. Not that big of a deal for now since I have the Pioneer AVIC F90BT in my car now. but would be nice to have it on my phone (tomtom & google maps) for that one time that might come up when i really need it and i'm not in my car.
again thanks for your help in trying to help a brotha out.
Verizon xv6800 bootloader and startup issues
My issues are, I cant get into the bootloader screen no matter what I try(power, camera and reset). Most times my phone will only go to the verizon screen and then just go white, other times, it may show the WM 6.5 startup screen and the freeze there. This all came from me trying to install WM 6,5 Beta 5 21159 rom from WM 6.1. On another not, my pc will not see my phone. So am I completely screwed? Is there any hope? Thanks in advance for any help.
So, overall, am I screwed?
Anybody have any suggestions?
Thanks
Can anyone help? my phone will not let me into bootloader mode or even startup past the verizon splash screen. I am desperately hoping that its not bricked. Also, the pc to phone usb connection will not see eachother.
My phone will charge via the usb cable to pc. When the wifi switch is turned on, the led on opposite side of the power led will do it green blinking.
Is there anyone that has time and is willing to work with me?
Thanks in advanced.
I have taken the phone apart so that I could push the internal buttons (power, camera and reset) to see if the outer shell buttons were the problem. They werent. I also still can't get past the verizon splash screen. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
I you cant get into bootloader you dont have any options.

Can't get my phone to do anything

I loaded up a new radio and while doing this via usb i think i loaded it without an os so i can't get an activelink connection i get the olipro 2.40 screen it says "serial" I try to flash through sd but nothing happens. I've tried and tried and read many postiongs but I can't figure it out.
Is my phone finished or what
Sounds like you got Oli on ok. So you shouldn't have a brick.
You need to load a radio on it first before you load a ROM.
Do a search for Ryan Mogul's Light or Heavy rom's and he has some good instructions for doing this

HD2 Bricked - Empty white screen

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?
