Hey everyone,
i am so upset and lost; words cannot describe it.
So i installed WM6 black shadow and everything was working except for SMS and MMS. So i am like ok i can live with that for a day till custel' rom will come out. SO i decided to upgrade the radio to 1.43 and boom here is where the problem started, No GSM on boot up. Phone doesn't boot up. I tried install 1.40 over again, still nothing. No i tried upgrade the the rom itself, i tired custel 2.5 and nothing and i tried the new Cingular rom, still same problem. the roms flash all the way. I read the wiki, and saw the mtty.exe thing but that doesn't work for me either. I am really lost and don't know what to do.
Specs
cingular 8525
hardspl v7 cid and sim unlocked.
PLEASE HELP
4.13?? 4.10??
Where did you download these radios from??
or do you mean 1.41 or 1.43??
Yeah thats what i meant, 1.40 and 1.43 sorry. You can see how upset i am.
Thanks Again
Well, if your phone turnes on .. it's not a brick.. lol .. it IS fixable... When you turn the phone on does it go RIGHT to the 3 colored screen?
@dan5.5
You need to read the unbricking thread about this, all the info you need is there.

If you are superCID I don't see how flashing a radio could have messed up your phone.. that's weird.

I read everything there and nothing seems to be working for me. I woudnt post for nothing. i dont want to be annoying.
OK im going to repost what ive said on 4wm:
We need to check if your Radio BL is functional, firstly leave HardSPL v7 on there and connect to the bootloader via mtty (il assume you know how to do this).
Issue the following commands and tell us the results please:
1) checkimage (this shows the CRC checksums of each component...id expect the radio image to show a timeout....
2) info 2 (This will verify that your CID is intact)
3) info 8 (does a bad block check)
Once youve done this, flash SPL 1.10.oli to the device and once again connect up to mtty.
4) 'rtask a' this will enter the radio bootloader you will see "Enter Radio Bootloader" or something to that effect
from now on when you type the text does NOT appear on the mtty screen.
5) 'rversion' this should return your radio bootloader version...now unfortunatly if you see nothing...you radio BL is dead and sorry your device is royally bricked. If you get something returned back onto the screen (most probably containing the text '0108') then your radio BL is fine.

do as instructed in that text, post your results here.
I cant falsh spl 1.10 oli. it gives me the 260 error.
the 260 error is not connected via USB right? .. weird... have you tried taking your battery out for a couple minutes, then booting into BL mode? sounds weird but this worked for me when I didnt flash hardSPL firsl..
hey mrvanx's
I can't downgrade the hardspl to 1.10, anyhelp.
I cant active sync, the phone doesnt boot up.
Is there anyway to aviod having to respond on the phone.
hey,
i can get the phone to boot up into windows and then it freezes within a couple min. what should i do. Still no gsm message and no phone. thanks
Dan
OK, so let's try and get you to a working state - I've bricked mine a couple of times and it can be quite heart-stopping, eh?
The first thing I would do is re-download radio 1.43, just incase your current one is damaged somehow.
Secondly, download Black Shadow - I know it's not the ROM you ultimately want but the aim here is to get you working again and we can move forward from there.
First, boot up into BootLoader mode (hold down the OK button on the left side of the phone and the power button and then press the reset button on the bottom, just in case you didn't know
You should come to the three colour screen and it should be reading IPL-1.04 and SPL-2.10.Olipro. If it isn't, stop here and post what it does say.
If it everything is OK at this point, when you plug your phone into your computer, it should change to USB at the bottom. Just wait for the Found New Hardware prompts to clear on your PC and then flash the black rom - choose the hardspl option in the flash program.
Once that has finished and it is at the "tap screen to set up windows..." bit, put it back into bootloader mode as above and flash the radio.
This should hopefully give you a running phone again as I know this combination works OK as I am currently using it.
Fingers crossed, don't panic, and let us know what the results are
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Nothing is working, can some please help me. Is there anyt way i can restore the spl to the original one so i can send the phone back, i just got it like 2 weeks ago. thanks
Also i have a bad block thats what i think makes the phone freeze after i boot it up.
How can i get around this, thats seems to be the biggest problem.
Hey everyone, let me give you more info.
I can fully flash any rom and and radio,
phone will boot up like 1 out of 10 times and then freezes and thats it.
i have a bad block number 6. I have hard spl v7 installed before the phone got screwed up. I cant downgrader the spl to a lower one to check if radio stack is screwed up. Can someone please help me, if you need to ask me more info feel free.
My first attempt to upgrade to AP4 did not succeed unfortunately (SPL to 3.50 upgrade went OK though), my power light stayed green and the display wouldn't come on.
So I took the Athena into bootloader and re-flashed back to AP3.
All seemed fine, the "Tap the screen to set up your device" screen appeared, I set it up and let the customization program run.
Unfortunately after the automatic reset at the end of the customization program, the device returned to the "Tap the screen to set up your device" and the customization program started again...
I tried interrupting the customization by soft resetting before it started executing itself, soft resetted during customization, let customization finish again (and again), but the device seems to be in an endless loop....
Any suggestions/help?
Thanks a lot in advance!
this happen because the spl and the kernel, AKA nk.exe, do not match. not sure what to do except try the new ap3 the cmonex posted **not sure if you tried that**
try the 3.0 cmonex posted and enjoy.
solved!
Thanks irus & Pawel062 (and cmonex!), that did the trick!
Probably not a bad idea to advise anybody who needs downgrading from AP4 to AP3 to use that rom. Download it from http://htc-hackers.com/uploads/ap3newspl.zip
See cmonex' thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386604
***great Information!***
HEY ALL,
I WAS ALSO HAVING SOME ISSUES VERY SIMILAR TO THESE WHILE TRYING TO "DOWNGRADE" TO ANY ROM FROM AP 4.0. THIS IS GREAT INFO AS I BUILD MY OWN ROMS CONSTANTLY, SO I WAS A BIT WORRIED WHEN I COULDNT SWITCH AFTER TRYING AP 4.O, BUT THANKS TO CMONEX, IRUS, & PAWEL062, WE CAN DOWNGRADE A BIT EASIER!
THANKS AGAIN!

just flash it with normal RUU
I have this problem of the "looping" with the customizations. My problem is that I can't get the device to a state where it is "talking" to activesync and from what I see, I need that to push this ap3spl new file.
When you say "just flash it with normal RUU" can you tell me what that means please? (sorry, noob here...) I've spent hours on the forums, wiki etc and I'm a bit lost.
I'm "trying" to get AP4 w/WM6.1 onto the device.
Purchased unlocked (new) and used on AT&T for 6 months.
Went to update the radio to 1.57 and used the unlocker first. (took out SIM/SD first of course).
Got past step one and then got a black screen on reboot...
I got AP3 to load but now I get this fun looping.. Setup device, load customizations, reboot, and start over.
Sounds like this file in this thread is my fix to at least get AP3 working but not sure how to apply. Can I do it from the bootloader?
thanks in advance for putting up with me
Oh yeah:
My current state:
ATHE100
IPL - v2.02
ATHE100 MFG
SPL -v3.50 OliNex
Eureka!
Ok, I'm not a COMPLETE noob.. (close). I'm up and running. AP3 (new spl) loaded, then loaded AP4. Woo Hoo!
No GPS
Well, I guess I'm "Almost" back up and running.
Since step three never got kicked off, it looks like my GPS rom/radio never was rewritten back to the device.
Any help on how to get just the GPS portion back?
Endless loop after flashing AP4
I have a similar problem. My Dopod U1000 was running WM6 and I upgraded to
radio version 1.58.00 no problem. After flashing AP4 I am in a cycle where my initial boot screen has black and white lines at the top and black at the bottom
Then get the Windows Mobile 6.1 screen and after automatic customizing the
PDA resets itself. I have tried to flash the AP3newspl file but it cant communicate successfully with the synced PDA. Any help?

get into bootloader by pressing camera+reset and check your spl
you can flash a rom from here

Thanks lakeman. I reinstalled WM6 ROM from the boot loader.
My IPL v1.00 and SPL v1.20. Olipro and Radio 1.58
I have transferred enblerapi.cab to PDA and run it each time but when I flash
AP4 ROM or AP3newspl ROM I get an endless loop and my SPL stays v1.20
I cant seem to get a flash of SPL3.5 which I suspect is the problem.
Am I missing something?

Did you un-lock the phone prior to flashing.....what hardspl is showing now?

This has happened to a few people. Do a Hard Reset. If that doesn't help. Then reflash the Bootloader with Hard_SPL 2.40 and reflash the radio and rom.
You must flash 3 things which must be compatible versions of each other in order for your phone to work:
Bootloader (aka SPL's)
Radio
ROM
You only mentioned the Radio and ROM, with no mention of a bootloader. You also don't mention which custom ROM you flashed.
See this thread for a list of compatible Bootlaoders / Radios / ROMs:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392133
Assuming you flashed a DCD v3 custom ROM the bootloader you need is called
SPL 2.47 (2.47No2Chem Titan SPL EVT) (Recommended) or
SPL 2.40 (Hard-SPL 2.40-olipro)
You can find both on this forum.
Make sure you do lots of reading at this blog:

I seen your post over at PPCGeeks.....I posted this there for you....
Wrong hardspl......flash back to a stock pre-gps rom and then un-lock with either 2.4Olipro or 2.47 in my sig....flash radio and then flash custom rom....also I would suggest reading the tutorial in my sig....or use the Wiki here both are helpful...
thanks for your help. i will retry. if my device keeps rebooting how can i change the bootloader? my bootloader is spl 1.20.01 olipro

Enter BL and it should stop......hold simultaneously power, camera, and soft reset hole....tri-color screen will show....(hence BL) then flash pre-gps stock.....you can also try hooking it up to the computer and it will stop the reboot....I have never tried the latter so I cannot confirm...
thanks guys it worked. everything works except syncing my device and everytime i push the "settings" button to access the settings the device freezes up.

I posted a fix for the settings issue over at PPCgeeks for ya......take a look...
whats upp guyzz,,
long story short...
my htc hd 2 crashes like every 5min, after an accident (screen was also broken)....
my insurance fixed after 1 month my screen and I just picked up my hd2,
when I run android, from my sd card, (Froyo hd 4.4) every things works normally for like 5minutes, then i get a screen freeze...
Not only with android but also with a custom windows mobile rom,
before the accident, i never had trouble with frozen screens ectt...
I think the accident didnt only broke my entire screen, but also some hardware inside my hd2...??! that's possible right??
anywayz,
before i send my htc hd2 to my insurance back, I want everything to be default...
Otherwise they can come to conclusion, and tell me ''i focked it up'' by installing some other software that isn't from the htc makers..
like the basic rom, the ugly one....
i downloaded it from the htc website ''rom upgrade''
but could there be any complications?? i mean, I installed other HSPL and changed the ''default'' one (which i dont know what HSPL the default one is)
and the radio? i installed radio 2.12
i hope u guyz got some suggestions or some ideas,,,
Ltrr!

If you already have a higher Stock SPL than 1.42 on your device then you can flash a stock rom using the goldcard method (if you have a goldcard that is) to downgrade your SPL as long as its not 2 or above.
If you have SPL2 or above then you are stuck and cant downgrade to anything.

I have SPL 2.08, now i cant downgrade it?
i installed the ''orignale rom'' for my device, it still gets stuck...
Even on the original rom, which confirms that there is something wrong with the hardware.
if i dont downgrade it, and neither Radio 2.15
does it have any effect on the device for getting stuck?
thnx for the link, but I don't know, is it al right wont it be any problem to bring my phone to the insurance (they bring it to a repairer )with SPL 2.08 and Radio 2.15?
you didnt say regular hd2 or tmous hd2.
regular hd2
-------------
run hspl2
choose 1.66.hspl
install wwe 1.66 stock rom as normal over usb
(if you have/know your correct stock rom, O2, orange, whatever, use that instead, but chances are 1.66 wwe will be fine for returns, its the spl/hspl thats important.)
run hspl2 again
choose 1.66.0000
done
tmous hd2
-------------
run hspl3
choose 2.08.0000
flash any tmous stock rom over usb. 2.10.0, 2.13 or 3.14.
done
Well
does SPL 2.08 effect the basic rom? like stuttering or make screen freezes?
if it doesn't then why should I change the SPL to default, I didn't cause the freezing first place.
my screen never froze before the accident, so suddenly after the accident it gets frozen for like every 5min.
Sometimes my htc doesn't even start, it freezes at the ''white htc screen'' and sometimes it shows like ''negative, black/white'' and I had once... it was stuck I pulled out the battery, and put it back in.. then hit the power button, it vibrates 5times short ( like buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz) WTF?

Not sure what the problem is.
I use Task29 all the time and have no problems.
I do not have a T-Mobile phone and the radio you listed is for T-Mobile.
What ROM did you have on the HD? Did you flash just the radio after the Task29?

Sorry if this sounds like a silly question but did you flash a new rom after doing task29?
Task29 completley wipes your phones nand, so everything is gone. Flashing a new radio isnt going to do much good if there is no rom installed on phone either.
no i did not once i flashed radio it went blank and can't do anything no usb connection our anything
this is where the radio came from post 51

This is pretty basic, but you do have to put your phone into bootloader manually after task 29. Take off the back cover, hold down the volume rocker, and hit the red reset button. Continue to hold down the volume until the multi-colored bootloader screen shows up. Then you can connect the USB and flash.
