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

Flash to wizard love or your carrier's rom. Then use shelltool, if you get stuck repeat the process. Sometimes it takes a couple of attempts.
umm how do you get the shelltool?
im new to this site so can u help me out?

If your new I plead with you to read the wiki and the sticky's in the wizard forums. Then you can come back here and ask whatever you like. Most people on here are very friendly and helpful but all we ask is that others read a bit before asking. This reduces the amount of redundant questions.
There is an entire thread dedicated to the use of shelltool.
Good Luck
I could never get any rom to flash on my locked G4. Tried Shelltools with about 4 different roms w/o success. Finally broak down and paid the $42 US to imei-check.co.uk for their unlocking service.
Now I'm unlocked and back to flashing until my hearts content - Running NBD 8.3 w/radio 2.69.11 on my Cingular/ATT 8125.
Avoid the grey hair and if ShellTools doesn't work after the second time, pay for the service.
Stuck on a splash screen,
I also had a same problem after flashing by Shelltool and stuck on a splash screen.
Flash back to custom setting using RUU tool and Wizard Love rom.
(wizard love rom is for G4 cid locked wizards. It doesnt have IPL/SPL section)
Again I have flashed Most beautiful ver; using shelltool and now i am enjoying new WM6 on my G4 locked wizard.

My Experience

After you stuck on splash screen, Your device wont detect by activesync to use with RUU (rom upgrade utility) tool. But still you can go to Bootloader mode (rainbow screen) by holding camera button while you soft reset the phone. Run the RUU tool after you manualy set the bootloder mode. RUU tool will detect your device on USB with bootloader mode (your PC not giving any sign of usb connectin but RUU detect your devise)
Othewise RUU toll give you 'error message 260'
This method was worked for me.
ok I've been reading a lot & had some problems with certain roms but I need to ask a very stupid question:
how do I turn off the radio? does this means having the phone in flight mode?
thanks
exactly. Flight mode is radio turned off. I was surprised too, when i saw radio off, but logical thinking give me an answer. like u
CID-Unlock .... how ????
Excuse me, but where is the "Running NBD 8.3 w/radio 2.69.11 on my Cingular/ATT 8125." ROM ??? .... I've been surfing the forum but couldn't find anything !!!
Thank U
let me get this right once you cid unlock the phone you can flash the g4 without the shell program?
yes that right! once you unlock you dont ned shell toll you can flash to any ROM!
also if you wanna use shell tool flash to trisyndicate and then to the rom you want to flash (both use shelltool) it werked ofr me

Those are two separate updates/flashes I performed after CID unlocking my 8125.
There is a thread in the WM6 forum containing NBD 8.3 and just do a search for the 2.69.11 radio. Just be sure to also search for the Cingular CAB fix for the 2.69.11 radio.
If you get stuck, just send me a PM.
I installed the Prophet_ShadoW_2.0_CE and now my Orange SPV M600 turns on the bootloader screen only please guys help me
Did you read the Upgrade guide which is the 1st sticky on this page ?? If you didnt just do it
You should know 1st what device you have G3 or G4 (when you read the guide you will know)
Then you should hardspl your phone and then your ready to flash your device with the preferable rom you want to.
After the flash you should hard reset the phone and your done.
If you dont understand some staff like hardspl or hard reset .... just read the quide.
Good luck
Make Sure You Don't Flash G3 On A G4 Device...you Will Brick It...think 1000 Times Before You Click
I have a G4,i downloaded NVID.EXE and ressurected it,now my phone appears as a qtek s200 now should i go on and try to upgrade to wm6 again or should it brick again?
You forgot to HARDSPL.
DO it first. After that flash the ROM again.
You will need to hard SPL before you upgrade! Make sure you use a G4 HardSPL or you will permanently brick your device.
But thats what i dont understand.How can i hardspl?I read the guides and its so complex.I got the G4 .nbf and used the G4 ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe and it did update.Now i am trying again the wm6.1
i wish someone could point me to the right direction cause i feel lost in here...
Use Prophet Tools (link in my signature). Go to the "HardSPL" Tab, select the radio button at the top called "G4" and then click "HardSPL".
hello all. i have an s200 G4, and it was in german. i tried to cid unlock it (succesufull), then tried to install a wm6.1. Didn't worked, after it was finished all i can see is the bootloader mode (i've removed the battery, put it back and turn on). I tried to get back to wm5, succesufully, and i tried to install a lot's of wm6.1, all are doing the same: bootloader mode instead OS system. what can i do?
Hi !
What did you do to CID-unlock the device ? Are you sure it was successfull ?
I've got a G4 S200 (French SPV M600) myself and I understand the CID unlocking cannot be performed on G4 devices, only G3 (see wiki here).
Did you use any hardspl or something of the sort ?
Regards,
David
yes i've tried. i will tell you tonight if will work with softspl, 'cause i didn't try that.
Ok...
Actually, "HardSPL or SoftSPL" doesn't really mean "CID-unlocking"... It rather enables you to flash ROMs without having to CID-unlock...
But HardSPL doesn't enable you to dump the original shipped ROM for example.
ok. i've made again now hard spl, and. i cannot install another rom instead wm5. what should i do?
so: i have installed Prophet_Orange_UK_ROM and was succesufully, and after that i've run on pda jumpspl and was finished. and after that i've tried several times (each time from beginning) to install many wm6.1 roms, but without success. each time appear bootloader mode after is finished the upgrade process. i've tried also with hardspl too. what can i do something else?
Is your PC using Vista by a chance??
nop. win xp.
What is the devices SPL before and after HardSPL?
It should change. If it does not, then HardSPL was not successful!
The device will not boot to the OS without Hard/Soft SPL being completed.
You can use a tool such as Dioxda2s "lazy tool" to automate the SoftSPL/ROM flash process.
the SPL was changed after hard-spl, i know the procedure. but, after hard-spl, I tried to install wm 6.1 (any version) and was succesfully, but, after it was finished, when to enter in OS, it doesn't. Is remaining in bootloader. but i didn't tried with that tool. I will, thank you very much.
I have the same problem , identicaly .

Gratulation you are the winner from nonreading treads. Do you have HardSPL for flashing WM6 Roms ?
Thankyou Thankyou !
The direct wm5 to 6.1 tool worked for me after I downgraded from wm6 to 5. Let it do everything ,no hard spl n crap
Hello,
where to find that direct download.
Your help appreciated
Hi guys I need some help. I have a Cingular HTC 8125, I was trying to upgrade the rom on it to a new WM6 and here is what happened.
I have been researching the topic for about 3 weeks.
Its a G4 Device being upgraded with VISTA w/ Moded drivers for Ative SYNC
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL 2.25.0001
I used the shell tool to install one of the roms waited about 2 hrs and finally noticed that the window was NOT RESPONDING so I had to shut down and start over. The phone got to the second screen but froze there now showing
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL 2.25.0001
GSM 02.25.11
OS 10.1.0.811
On the Cingualr Background, I can still enter the Bootloader screen but nothing else?
Nothing else happens I cant connect the phone to the PC to do anything else.
Is it bricked or not is my question and what can I do to flash OEM rom or something that will work.
I tried OEM Cingular rom but I get ERROR 260 No connection to the phone?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Bricked phone
You should had firstly either hardspl or soft spl the phone b4 trying to load any rom
It's not bricked as long as you can see the RGB screen (Colors red, green and blue)showing the same IPL/SPL such as yours; IPL: 2.25.0001 and SPL: 2.25.0001. AND PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR DEVICE CAUSE ITS G4 MEANING YOU CAN NOT JUST INTALL/FLASH ROM. Make sure that the Rom you flash not contain G3 IPL and SPL which is 2.xx.001. If so, then you will bricked your device.
Desiji is right, you should install rom with softSPL or hardSPL.
Try to flash the Official Cingular Rom or Wizard Love Rom. If success, then you can install other Rom using what desiji said. Just make sure that its a G4 safe rom. And another thing, try to charge battery using wallcharger not in the device. U need enough battery to perform rom flashing.
Hope this help revive your Wizard.
esdee007
WOW !
grrrrr8,you are a quick learner
CateraMV6
Yeah ! I certainly agree with esdee007 and desiji
Thanks
Hey guys thanks, thats what I thought but I think my main problem is the VISTA I need to get a hold of XP and try all that because the Vista is having issues with connecting to the phone at the moment, I can not get it to show it as a device. It does make a beep noise when you connect/disconnect it so its doing something but Vista is just too much of a pain in the rear to deal with.
Its a good news that its not bicked so all hope is not lost.
What is the opinion on Tmobile WING!? any reviews should I get that phone instead?
BTW where do I find these G4 Safe ROMS? and how do I tell if they have the IPL/SPL in them? Do I need to hack them to tell?
And is Soft or Hard recommended?
YUP ! sure vista is still not compatible for flashing,WinXP is highly recommended and trouble free.
All official stock roms are safe to flash both the devices G3 or G4,secondly,all the latest custom build wm6 or wm6.1 are safe for both the devices,as they don't include any IPL/SPL in them.
If you plan to flash many roms,than 'HardSPL' is recommended,coz its done only once and the device remains semi_Cid unlock untill you personally remove HardSPL,but with SoftSPL,its done everytime you want to flash a new rom,choice is all yours,how you want to go about it.
