Is this a brick? Please help me - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading

I've tried to search to see if anybody has ever encountered a problem like this, but my search was in vain.
I was trying to upgrade ROM, I successfully load SPL 3.5, before it I was running AP dual 3.0. However after the installation the device rebooted and the started auto customisation. It installed SDAautorun and then SDConfig.txt but before this one completes, the device reset itself. It restarted and do the same process again and again, just restart and restart.
I tried all types of resets and I even tried to reinstall other roms that worked with the device before but nothing is any good. This is because when the device boots it load the SPL 3.5 (Windows mobile 6.1) instead of installing the ROM I'm trying to install.
I get a chance to do so as the device can still connect to the computer and it stops when it prompts to callibrate the screen (tap four corners and center of the screen)
Please help me if there is anything I could do to start using my device again. I appriciate any support in advance. It is very possible that I've messed up something somewhere but please once again do help me, even if the by telling me that my Ameo is a brick that would help me to know what I've got to do.
NB: My device is T Mobile Ameo (Athena, Advantage X7500)

Thanks guys, i am unable to move any files on my device because i can now only get the rainbow screen. My phone cannot be detected by active sync.
When i try to run an RUU it does a little more then it previously did in terms of shpwing me the percentage bar (installation process) but my rainbow screen turns off and then i get an error message.
Now the rainbow screen appears every few minutes on its own and goes off again.

Thanks for your help. I will have a look tomorrow because even though i am reading your instructions i am still not understandingh it.
1. The first method isnt possible because i cannot see the device to move files into it
2. With the second method i cannot find the PVTemp you mention
I am not too good with this so it will take time for me to get what your saying.
Thanks again - i will charge my phone overnight to make sure my battery is ok

o2 atom exec troubles

hey there been a member for sometime and have tried to search for a solution to my problem and am abit confused.
and sorry if its such a newb question (dont burn me for it)
i have an o2 atom exec (using RC3 rom with touchflo) and yesterday i /soft reseted/ the phone because it was acting funny, after the reset it would be stuck at the startup screen and would not load past that the whole day, so i waited and re-tried in the evening.. the same thing occured... i was at the time able to load into bootloader (MN2) but then could do nothing else.. so i searched throughout the forums and found a post by 'chartreux' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1684559&highlight=EBOOT.NB0 but had not read the entire post and proceeded to load (mn1) onto my phone via mini sd card and it worked, my phone was working again, it performed a hard reset and restored it to factory settings (ie: calendar, msgs, contacts, software all gone) and phone is working normally again... since it has done this i wanted to update to 'wm6.1 atom exec rom' just to be up-to-date and have synced it via activesync and have run "DSUU" but my phone just restarts and loads the current rom i have installed! and just repeats everytime i have tried (have tried atleast 50 times)
so my main question.. is my bootloader dead? i know my phones not bricked since its still working perfectly im just not able to upgrade my ROM but can still do everything else (such as browse through files, run programs, make calls)
and last of all.. can anybody please help?! as i am at the point running the phone over with my car!

what version of your bootloader now? MN2 or MN1? if still MN1 please read again the thread to update your bootloader to MN2 (since your device is ATOM EXEC).
and after done, please check when you run DSUU, see on the left bottom whether have a drop down box or not? if yes then choose "ALL"
hope this can help to solve your problem.
hey! thanks for the reply mate!
but im not sure i cant check the version of my bootloader...
wont let me get into it by pressing camera+SR or camera+off button..
just boots straight into the operating system.
and, as for the DSUU it just restarts the phone after i choose all, and goes through to the today screen on the phone, and as for the DSUU update its stays at the screen which shows "The current software is now being updated from your device."
followed by an error appearing after a few minutes showing " No download target was found!!" even though my atomexec is synced
which is then followed by the "connection error" screen.
please help.. this is seriously pissing me off...

try to downgrade again your bootloader to MN1 (please do it step by step). as long you can secure your bootloader, hopefully you can resolved your problem.
remember to upgrade again to MN2 once you able to downgrade to MN1 before try flashing to wm6.1.
good luck.
still cant access bootloader.. even when trying DSUU it just boots straight into the operating system, when trying to update and also i tried the MN1 bootloader again and tried to get into it... still nothing.. it just resets, i tried it with my 4GB mini sd, 2gb msd, and a 64mb mini sd.. could not get into it... sigh...
Ok try a deep breath and read all the posts on dead boatloaders and other upgrading problem posts through and through. Then try to change ur USB cable and what system are u using i.e XP or Vista????
thankyou kindly, for the suggestions i have been reading through alot of posts and tried alot but.. nothing so far.. i guess its not too bad since its stuck on windows mobile 6 with abusalzas rom..
im just annoyed i cannot upgrade to the latest 'rom' and since my phone 'had' to perform a hard reset why not update so yeh.. and i am using windows xp for my computers os.
Did u change the USB cable mate, once I had to do it and the interesting thing is that the same USB cable was working perfectly for other things but causing problems when connecting to my Atom Exec.
yeh tried it with my old v3 cable didnt work has the same outcomes.. sigh.. i might try that dead bootloader hardware and software recovery from this post by Alex_Beda & 1stMASTER

[Q] ROM Upgrade Issues

hey guys, im having major issues with my HTC HD2.
I have upgraded my rom previously and it worked fine. i just did the telstra one off the htc website.
STATS:
os version: 5.2.21869 (21869.5.0.82)
manila version: 2.5.20121431.1
ROM version: 1.72.841.0 (82124) WWE
ROM DATE: 02/23/10
Radio version: 2.07.51.22_2
protocol version: 15.32.50.07U
I am now tryign to upgrade once more because im having software issues with my current set-up, hoping a rom upgrade will solve it. but, i cant upgrade my rom! i am using CustomRUU.exe as the host program for running the .nbh files. i have tried artemis's latest rom, radio uprgrades, andriod ports, maxsense cooked roms, everything! and i cant get it to get past this screen.
so the issue. i hook up my HTC HD2 to my computer connect via activesync, i then drag the chosen .nbh file on to CustomRUU.exe and run the file and the rom upgrade, im doing everything they say and my htc is hooked to the computer with the arrow things confirming. i do the acceptance steps, and it gets to the progress bar and sits a 0% (on my laptop) while my HD2 works through it.
it goes to the red green blue screen, says USB down the bottom, goes black and displays a HTC loading screen with a progess bar at 0%
this is where the issue is.
it stays at 0% for about 5-10 minutes, on BOTH the hd2 and the laptop, than the computer gives me an error code [262] : UPDATE ERROR...(i am aware that this is a connection error and should resolve with restarting for the computer and the device and a new usb port used)... but this has not solved my problem. as soon as my HD2 restarts and goes to the red green blue screen i lose connection with the computer and it times out. My HD2 just loads the htc progress bar screen and does nothing
i dont even get 1%!!!!
i have tried installing HSPL but it says i need sspl 1.42.000 (i think), so when i try to install that via a rom or whateva it is, it gives me the no connection freezing issue.
im stuck in a violent circle and get get past this issue.
basically, the rom uprgrade wont work because my device is apparently disconnected form the computer and the install times out.
someone please help! PLEASE!
im sorry if this is a simply fix and im being a noob, but i just am stuck real bad!
thanks in advance guys

Changing to a customized ROM is very different from upgrading through HTC website , and it starts by installing HSPL on your phone..
you should start here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
but its probably easier to resolve your current "SW issues" than installing a customized suitable ROM for you at this stage.. so why dont you post what the SW issue is instead.. (unless your phone does not boot at all now..)

just quickly, sw issues?

software issues = SW issues
Depending on what your Software problems are you could try to post them and try to solve it.
The fastest ways is to install the right HSPL you can use the link in the post of "ugguggh" which has a good manual about how all works. You also can read through the 1st two posts in de threat displayed below. Here you cna find which HSPL you need for your version.
CLICK HERE!
After installing the right HSPL its just a matter of choosing your desired ROM and install it.
I'm currently working with the Artimis V27 ROM NL and i'm not experiencing any problems it runs very smooth. Just format your SD card and try to download Task29. First run "Task29" before installing the ROM. It cleans up old stuff from your old ROM install. After Task29 finished press volume down before it reboots your phone so you enter the bootloader. Now you can start the CustomRuu application and install your desired rom. (if you enter a blanc HTC screen after Task29 (thats normal because there is no OS to load anymore) just remove the battery and hold volume down while putting the battery back or using the power on button)

dont do that, put customruu and the nbh in a folder on their own, then right click customruu and choose run as administrator (do this even if you are logged in as administrator)

use a usb port around back of the pc, not in the front case.
the 'you need 1.42.0000...' is wrong, its old info. Use hspl3 and choose 2.08.hspl
THANKYOU! but here are my sw issues
hey guys thankyou for all ur help, i downloaded hspl3 and it worked and i have tested a few different roms,, and i installed Miri_HD2_WM65_21908_Sense25_V17.0_WithSwype, which is working quite well right now and i am pretty damn happy with it so far.
i installed S2U2 and since then it started to play up a lil..
the issues are that in general the whole entire system is slow. not neccesarilly windows but sense... :\
messages are sometimes unusable, frozen very laggy, and occasionally needs a soft reset. phones is unusable, can make calls, just cant hear dialtone, microphone sender and recevier isnt working, NO SOUND! shortcut calender viewer on the sense homescreen takes mins to hours to load appointments and sometimes doesnt for days. and in saying sometimes is lightning quick...???
besides that i am not experiencing many other issues YET...i will have to wait a few more days. though i would really like a solution to the phone issue if that is possible
would love to beable to use a android port (a very good, everyday use version), and if anyone has any info on it, would u beable to post some for me please
i have tried haret and it wont work. i load clrcad then haret it runs through the first stuff, then the screen starts to fad and i get lines on the left then it slowly goes black and nothing happens. requires a soft reset to get the phone working again..
I AM JUST FULL OF ISSUES! sorry guys
anyways thankyou EVERYONE for all your help u have been great so far
thanx

[Q] Help with HD2 not starting up

I need help! I started off with a stock HD2. I now am running a 2.10.50.28_2 radio with Astraios v1.6 ROM. I installed hspl3 first before flashing (I did not run a task29...). It worked fine at first and then I flashed Android via sdcard, which also ran fine. I then restarted my phone and went back to WinMo OS and it still was running fine. However, I restarted my phone a 2nd time and it would not get past the Astraios splash screen, it was just stuck there. So, I just removed the battery hoping for a hard reset. I then started my phone back up, but now it gets stuck on the HTC splashscreen and will not even advance to the Astraios ROM screen. I've tried to activesync, but it is not even being recognized by Windows Mobile device center to active synce it for a reflash...
Any advice???!! I've tried searching and searching, but I could not find an answer that did not include reflashing (does not seem to be an option as it will not even be recognized via USB).
Thanks!!

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?
