Try this way :

6828 dead
con't boot when iput the battery red&green button lights on... help me!
In my case. I do any way it can'y start my device. My HP service center tell me it must be change mainboard. But I don't change. But I try to open it again. I found this way.
I think you will try this way as me.
- remove battery in a few minite.
- put battery back again.
- plug a battery charge. (not a cable sync)
- If green and red is on. I think it ok. If it not on, you will try first choice.
- Press both softkey ,power switch, soft reset to start bootloader at the same time. Don't press power switch at first.
I think it can be open your device on to bootloader. Flash it again.

You've probably either sorted this by now or binned the phone but I thought I'd post anyway as it may help others.
You don't describe what you mean by dead but have you tried hard reset?
WITH PHONE SWITCHED OFF (in your case remove and replace the battery)
1. Press and hold soft1 and soft2 keys (i.e. menu keys).
2. Press and hold power button for around 1 to 1.5 seconds. Release power button. Keep holding both soft keys.
3. After a while, black screen should show instructions asking user to press '0' key to reset to factory default.
4. Press '0' within the timeout period (which is very brief).
5. If instructions don't appear on the screen, repeat steps 1 to 4.
You have to flash it using it's original rom (for locked device).
but if you phone is CID UNLOCKED you can flash it using ROMIUPDATE. just put the phone in bootloader mode and run the RUU Update.

Hello folks. The friend of mine has screwed up his Lobster, and now he wants to take a dump from another one. The problem is, mtty says r2sd command is unknown... he tried to issue password command, but we don't know the peoper password.
Does anyone have the proper password for bootloader? Or better... does anyone have a rom dump? It'd be appreciated...

Its supposed to be the ROM for the lobster. I however cant get it to work as my lobster is stuck on a white screen during boot and cannot get into Activesync. Can anyone advise How i can get into Bootloader mode? I have tried holding Camera key but to no avail...
try taking out the battery, then heating the back of the phone for a while
I did that on my brother's phone(his Lobster "died" the same way) on a sunny day leaving it to heat up for about 30 minutes of sunshine
after that put the battery in and try booting again
OMG......
you can say it clearly
are you update the rom?
if so ,may be the word storage is broken

For me it's not working.....
Any Idas?
yesterday I tried to update the ROM to a new one - WM6 .
I copy into my mini SD the file diskimage_ver.nb0 and I renamed it into diskimg.nb0, after the update my device turned off and I couldn't turn it on.
I pressed the camera button and soft reset so that the bootloader will boot and the PDA turned on! and bootloader appear - but I forgot to copy into the sd card the original ROM so I restart again and I copy to the mini sd card the original ROM files and I pressed the camera button and soft reset to get the bootloader again but the PDA not responding...
(When I connect the PDA to electricity the red light works and when I remove the battery and insert it again the call button and hang up buttons work (green and red light) for 1 second).
Please help me I dont know what to do
Take a look at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314613
Thanks mightyox I did what jiggs wrote but it's not working
Be paient:
1) take out battery & SIM for a while...5 min is enough.
2) remove SD card( a must )
3) put battery back
4) press the camera button with the "POWER" button.
5) check if boot loader boots.
6) if yes, re-flash your phone with running the update Flash program in Windows environment connected with a USB cable.

I had the same problem yesterday and fixed it.
To get back to the bootloader, do this exactly in chronological order:
1. remove SD Card
2. remove battery
3. hold camera button and reset (stylus) button (without the battery attached)
4. replace battery back while still holding the buttons
This will bring you back to bootloader mode.
When you get into the bootloader,
1. Plug the device to your desktop via usb.
2. Make sure that the Notification area in your desktop at least detects a device. if not, try and try until it does.
3. Download Xda-AtomExec-ENG-20060614_R060428N_EX0028.exe (ancient basic rom for my exec) but in your case, because you have an Atom only, get the one for Atom(not exec) i think this is it http://rapidshare.com/files/40346284/Xda-Atom-ENG-20060426-MOT0822.exe .
4. flash it the usual way.
5. Usualy gets stuck at 6% at the extended ROM upgrade, dont mind it, hard reset it,
6. Enter the bootloader again.
7. Flash your original ROM.

Hehehe. It's time to buy an iPhone or Atom Life. hehehe. keep on searching the forum. i'm 99% sure that you'll figure it out somehow. That's how TofClock did it so well. Just search the entire forum.
I'm having the same exact problem. The bootloader is just not coming back up after the camera and reset [it did before but I was trying to downgrade the hack atom exec on my atom pure so the wm6 install utility would work]. I figure I would let my atom sit without the battery for a while with battery out to see if I can get the backup battery to drain down before I try it again. Anyone else have this problem that has a solution??

You are not suppose to rename diskimage_ver.nb0 into diskimg.nb0 without altering the file. That's why they have different names to start with.
The files that came with normal DSUU OS mode flashing have header identifier while the files for SD Card flash do not. It is assumed that you know what you are doing during SD Card flashing, that's why there is no manual or instructions to do it. bootloader mode was meant for device service personnel use only. We use it to hack the ROM.
DO THE FOLLOWING:
1. remove the battery for one minute
2. insert the battery while observing the LED
3. if LED blinks once, your bootloader is okay
4. do as dcoloane says to the detail
IF LED doesn't blink, sorry mate, you toast your device. It's now a paper weight.
Its really strange. When I insert the battery, the orange LED will blink once really quick and charging seems to work also. But when I try to get it into bootloader mode, it just doesnt do anything. This atom pure is my back up phone [have a atom life also] so I guess I will let the battery completely drain out of it before I will try again~_~. As for the renaming, I did the same thing as the atom just couldnt recognize the file and update the rom if you didnt rename it [yeah, yeah.. I"m a noob - the problem isnt upgrading the rom which I have done many time, its the downgrading of the hack atom exec rom on my original atom that screw me up as I couldnt upgrade the wm6 due to the install file wont work as it think its a atom exec instead of the atom pure~_~]
Maybe you have to remove battery for a night to make sure it is dried out.
yeah, just going to wait for my backup battery to run out of juice before I try again. Either that or send it in for the $150 repair~_~.

It's not how long you take out the battery or the amount of battery power. It's how quick you press the bootloader mode buttons after replacing the battery. It has to be immediate; otherwise, it won't work. You also have to hold the button simultaneously for a second.
did that already. It work previously so I know I can get into bootloader. It only stop working after the flashing. Where exactly do you send it in for repair anyway?? Anyone has a tele or address as when I bought it it didnt come with a box or manual.
I found local PDA repair shop...
I download the rom image from pda-hack.net in this url:
http://pda-hack.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=50
as well as the extrom, then fully charge my battery and follow these instructions:
1 diskimg.rar (40,6 Mb) - main OS, decompress this archive in SD Card root directory
2. pda-hack.net_rw68xx_ExtROM_emul.cab (3,97 Mb) - some applications needs ExtROM, this package can emulate it. Install after flash or put it into '\Cabs' directory before flashing for autoinstall
3. To flash press & hold soft-keys, then push reset, after HP logo is appear, release soft-keys and don't touch anything. After flashing device automatic reboot in hard reset.
I don't put the content of cabs.rar into my \Cabs, because I don't want to install these.
I use my 2G sandisk card to flash my 6828. When I boot into bootloader, the hp screen appears with blu1.0.5 at bottom-left cornel for about 20 minutes and then it blacks. I tried to get into bootloader mode but fails, also I tried to hardreset it ,but no response.
Is there a way to resurrect it .THANKS THANKS THANKS!!
Have you removed battery out around 5 to ten mins. and put it back at the same time with quickly go to boothloader like someone siad before?
I think it may help. Coz, I have 2 machines of 6828 me and my friend. One is fine flashing rom to WM 6 but another one meet the problem close to you. After waiting for 45 mins. I decide to remove batt around 5 mins. and bootloader again like what I read from some threat here and it works. I finally finish flash rom to WM6 both.
Good luck.
i managed to resurrect it. Take out battery, wait, press both soft key, at the same time put battery in, wait a second, wait a moment, it will be in bootloader mode.
uh.. anyone can help me?? i have the same problem.. xD

1. you are NOT FOOL
2. better follow steps to the bootloader mode,
3. Plug to PC if you see the 'usb' @ left bottom of Prophet .... good.
4. Flash PVtemp and BE PATIENT ~~~~ IT TAKES SOME MINUTES ~~~~
5. when ready, after Prophet restarts, ONLY CONTINUE THE HARDSPL..... (no touch activesync....)

But I think it must be HW problem!
Because I've flash successfully ( 100%) the prophet using ROMUpdateUtility_NT_G4 but still can't see something on the display!
even this "USB" at the bottom of the screen!
Could be display problem???
Sorry but how to be sure that the HW is O.K.??
I'll try to put the display in another Prophet to see what happens!
But if if works , than ...... ?????
If it's not working you can always try to remove your SIM card and hold Camera button and press ON button....
Now you can see "three colors" screen and USB then you have to flash with NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom .

Hey~~~
1. if you can see your Prophet screen on your PC,
2. HW problem.... 20% of chance to win....
2.1 OPEN your prophet,
2.2 remove you screen, take care to the screen connector, that's a bit fragile, but
just make loose the pin, the screen may be detached very easily.
2.3 power on the Prophet, and put back the screen ( no power off), 20% you can get back the screen display properly.
4. power off,
5. make the Prophet back to one piece.
PS. hope it works for you.

Hi again,
1. I've removed the display veeeery easily (nothing happens with the pin )
2. Found other one prophet and put the display there and it works fine : the display is hale.
3. Follow your instruction I put very carefully the display back in the working prophet : nothing new ! The screen goes white and blanc :-(
4. Go outside and smoke a cigarete to drown my anger!
Is there any chance to find the problem!?
Thanks
Hi guys
I'm new to this stuff, and I've been searching round on the forums for the last half hour but haven't managed to find a clear cut explanation of whether my atom is dead or not..
I just tried to install the Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM (Atom_B1.7z) I think it was the helloworld1 rom? Anyway, I was trying to install the ROM through the DSSU method and it got through to about 6% on the first step then my atom shut off
It won't respond to any button pushes now, however it will still display the charging light. I can't even get into the bootloader to reflash, however, I would have thought that the first step was only to install the OS, so I don't understand how it effects the bootloader? Unless I'm wrong?
Can anyone give me a clear cut idea as to whether my atom is dead or not?
Cheers.

ur device is bricked, if and only if, ur device won't start normally... even if u press soft-reset, hard-reset, or even bootloader mode buttons. Before panicking, do da following:
Brick Test:
1. Make sure ur device has ample battery charge. If u're not sure plug it in with da wall charger for at least 10min
2. Remove ur battery for at least 1 minute
3. Replace ur battery while observing da LED lights
4. If da LED blinks once upon battery insertion, u might have hope yet
Da only way to upgrade on a semi-brick device, is to upgrade through bootloader mode. No bootloader mode, No upgrade possible - period.
Entering Bootloader Mode on Semi-Brick Atom:
1. Remove battery for for at least 1 minute
2. Press CAMERA+RESET(stylus) simultaneously
3. Insert battery while still holding da buttons
4. Release da buttons at da same time(u should see bootloader screen)
Note: Failure to hold the buttons at da same time during battery insertion will cause it not to work.
GOOD LUCK
Thanks, ma Atom now working ) yeahh
