I think i bricked my Prophet - G4

I have an Imate jamin.. and i installed wm6.1.. everything was goin good..but lately i installed and other rom on it and now it doesnt go forward... it is stuck on the start screen... i need help!!!

Hey,
First try an hard reset, this can be done with pushing the _commmenager-button+Camera-button+stylus-reset(on bottom of ur device)_ at the same time, just release the stylus-reset some earlyer then the other 2 buttons.
if thats not working:
Try to charge your mobile with your original charger,
Then go to your bootloader, put in the USB Cable.
goto the site of your brand of phone... imate / qtek or whatelse...
download official WM5 ROM.
try to flash it again.
Also flash your radio rom to 02.19.21
I like 02.19.21, i think its the best radio-rom for prophet i ever used.
but that can be because i have Vodafone, dont know if its also the same with your provider...
but i should say, give it an try!
here you can download all Radio-Roms.
First of all, when u start flashing again to WM5/6 (doesn't matter what rom) always use HARD-SPL!
And i can advice you an good rom(although for me in case)
The rom made by VaranusVincent
ROM Prophet Blue Manilla 2d

Jamin rom downfall

I tried to upgrade my imate jamin s200 to smart1_wm6_pp8mb. since the operation did not finished I unplugged the usb cable, therefore the machine didn't work and opening now. now some messages are appearing on the screen (IPL:2.15.0001; SPL 2.15.0001; GSM 02.19.21; OS:10.1.0.811)
i need your urgently help... How can i fix it this problem and upgrade my rom again?
Put your Jamin into bootloader mode (camera button hold+softreset with stylus), connect it via USB (not on a hub!!!!) with your PC and try to flash the last update of Qtek, Orange, iMate or something else you like! If your device booting after this correctly you can re-try the flash to WM6!
I switched yesterday many times between Qtek 2.20 Ger, Orange UK, O2 Ger nd smart1's clear WM6 and had no problems during this!
Thank you very much, could you plase upload here i cant find the last update ,
i''m waiting you..
i dont know what is my qtek last update How can i learn it?
When you want to know what ROM you have flashed to your device, go to Start -> Settings -> System -> Device Information! Here you can find all information you need!
By the way: the latest Qtek update for the S200 is 2.20! You can find it trough Gooogle or the board search! Good luck!

Hi animelover,
Just a question...Do you use the OS extract tool to flash only the os without changing the IPL/SPL, or the roms that you wrote about have no IPL/SPL upgrade? I mean did you fash directly or you flashed only the extracted OS?
Thanks!

WM6 Upgrade Guide

How to upgrade from WM5 TO WM6
To upgrade your prophet to WM6 I recommend that you first of all downgrade to the NVID version of WM5 AKU2.2 and get the latest Active Sync:
1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe YOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your computer has rebooted, run the file from step No 1 . Follow the steps, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait.
5. When you have done this, your pda will reboot. After it comes with the welcome to windows mobile screen,"Tap Here To Begin",JUST LEAVE IT. In fact don't touch your device before the next steps are finished.
6. Now download one of the WM6 versions( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1279985&postcount=1 )
7. Now find a file named Upgrade.bat,and run it.(you don't have to run Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp,as you have already downgraded to AKU2.2)
8. Wait until the upgrade finishes(usually takes 12-15minutes)..WAIT WAIT WAIT
9. A message will be displayed in the dos box,and it will say that the upgrade is finished etc....etc...,now you HAVE to HARD RESET,to finish the upgrade and enjoy you new WM6!
How to downgrade from WM6 TO WM5
The downgrade process from WM6 to WM5 is pretty simple. All you have to do is to downgrade to WM5 NVID and after that upgrade to the WM5 you want:
1. Download the NVID(no vendor) AKU 2.2 rom for WM5 here :http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exeYOU CAN USE Step1 of PdaMobiz or PDAViet Temp INSTEAD OF NVID(no vendor) AKU2.2 ROM...
2. After it has been downloaded get the latest Active Sync from Microsoft.com.. Simply search for "Active Sync"
3. Install active sync, you might need to reboot
4. When your PC is ready run the NVID file you downloaded in step1 and follow the guide, remember that it can take some time and seem to stuck at 80% and higher, but just wait
5. When its done downgrading to the NVID WM5 rom, you prophet will reset and you can upgrade to the version of WM5 you want.
NOTICE
If you use a different AKU 2.2 ROM(like PDAViet Temp),you may have two EXEs in the folder you extracted.Be careful and use the one that is made for your device:
FILENAME G3.EXE
is for G3 devices:IPL x.xx.0000, SPL x.xx.000.0 (this is shown when you reset)
FILENAME G4.EXE
is for G4 devices:IPL x.xx.0001, SPL x.xx.000.1 (this is shown when you reset)
RECOVERING FROM ERROR IN STEP 8 WM5->WM6
1. Don't panic
2. Don't panic
3. Unplug the phone
4. Reset with stylus,and keep the Camera Button pressed.
5. A 3 color screen will appear(Bootloader Screen)
6. Connect your device with your PC,and run the NVID(no vendor) WM5 rom.
7. The device will be resetted after RUU(rom update utility)finishes
8. Repeat the WM6 upgrade,from STEP 5..
How to switch or upgrade/downgrade between WM6 versions(for example PDAViet->Trueneytral)
1. First you have to downgrade to WM5 AKU2.2 using the WM6->WM5 guide(some say that you don't have to do that,but i believe that it's better to downgrade first rather than making a simple overwrite)
2. Now follow STEP 5 of the WM5->WM6 guide
Device doesn't connect to PC after flash
If your device doesn't connect to your PC after flash,just enter bootloader(press camera button+while pressing soft reset and hold,until a tri-color screen shows up),and flash the NoVendor WM5 Rom: http://rapidshare.com/files/17208693/RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID.exe .Then repeat the whole process...
----------------------------------------------------------
KEEP IN MIND:
UPGRADING CAN BE DANGEROUS,YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE
DO NOT RESTORE BACKUPS FROM ANY ROM OTHER THAN THE ONE IT WAS CREATED ON
THERE IS NO "BEST WM6 ROM",THE BEST IS THE ONE THAT WORKS BEST FOR YOU
(part of the guide is taken from Da9L's guide,in the WM6 Rom Collection)
I will edit/update this post soon and clean it up, ask questions in another thread, and by god please read the wiki first, 90% of the questions asked are answered in the wiki....

Huge Problem!!
Ok guys I am having a huge problem. I tried to upgrade to WM6 but when running the RUU and changing the rom, it encountered an error saying the nbf file cannot be installed on my pda phone and now my phone is stuck(i think permanantly) on the bootloader screen.
No matter what I do to try to fix this, IE: restart device, power down by removing battery, try to run the RUU again, nothing helps. Its is really stuck and I really need this cell phone.
PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN.
Dan.

Put you pda on bootloader mod... and try any of this rom's i have managed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316062
Stay cool!
I followed the instructions carefully, and my phone (Qtek S200) seemed to boot with WM6.0
However, after aligning screen, it tried to initialize the phone with some extended roms, a procedure which failed, and I had to soft reset.
After reboot, it seems to work fine.
Is it?
EDIT: Another thing I noticed is that keyboard is in THAI !!! How can I make US the default? Olso, I have Resco keyboard GR edition. Will this work with WM6?

Is this G3 only, or both?
I'm asking, because in PDAviet's temp file there are two different rom updaters, but in the file linked above there is only one.

i don't know mate.i believe you can use pdaviet's temp instead of aku2.2 nvid...
Another thing I noticed, is that it looses pairing with my bt handsfree...
I am making the pairing, and works fine. However, when at night I am shutting off my hf in order to save battery, the next morning the pairing is gone.
Any solution to this?

i noted that my SPL change into 2.G4.4PDA
then i read korand post, bout that new rom..i've tried it & it works well,my 818 pro with WM 6..
at the same time, i try to upgrade my IPL into 2.20 but after download it,my avast detect trojan in it..so i just leave it

GSM 02.19.21
OS 6.0.0.255

i've tried upgrade rom back to normal,but no avail as my activesync cannot detect my device.

I just have one thing to say you play with your "IPL" when you don't know what you are doing and you brick your phone for real !! and I mean you will brick it as like it wont even turn on !! don't think about playing around with IPL. your SPL is fine. it's HardSPL now. you can upgrade other roms, just read the wm6 guide , follow step by step and you will be fine.
one more time, if you like your device and you want to keep it (and use it) don't play around with it's IPL
true..totally agree with you..
well, i guess i do like this kind of tech..i'm fast learning (usually from mistakes) risk always be my companion ..
one thing i'm curious about..if i want to upgrade to any other roms, should i upgarde my IPL 1st?..just like i try to use your personal crystal rom..why didnt i make it well, even though i follow the instruction step by step?
After i using those Korand's rom..everything is fine except my battery !!
i charging it & i notice that my device is getting hot !!..
i know this is not well..so i need to upgrade into others roms which more suitable with my device..
Thanks hma4 for your concern
___________________
HTC Dopod 818 pro
yup..better dont disturb the IPL
on second thought,it wisely not to disturb the IPL as you've mention except for those a genius
bout the battery,after few reset.. it back to normal..no hot anymore
i think i better stick with this rom for awhile.. as it is nice,stable & fast..+ more xtra storage..
In general, just leave IPL and SPL alone. Most ROMs (except WM5) work regardless of IPL/SPL and it's better to avoid bricking/damage.

Stuck after TNT

Hi,, I have used shelltool to install TNT 6.1 from wizlove all went smooth
Then i decided to try a different radio so flashed 02.71.11 from o2.37.11
all went smooth no problem,, It wasnt a day and I had to get rid of 02.71.11
so tried flashing to others and ruu loses conection on staus bar and screen goes into the green red mode,, since then I have tried to do hard spl and it gets as far as the white screen and then ruu says lost connection
I cant seam to do anything now cant flash wiz love ether
help me please head is sore from reading too much
Thanks
what have I done now
OK so I tried going back to wizlove with the shelltool and its now stuck on the imate splash screen,,,maybe I should leave this thing alone
How can I fix it?
try to make Hard rest then install original rom wm5
that will work...
Hey,
Try to charge your mobile with your original charger,
Then go to your bootloader, put in the USB Cable.
goto the site of your brand of phone... imate / qtek or whatelse...
download official WM5 ROM.
try to flash it again.
Also flash your radio rom to 02.19.21
I like 02.19.21, i think its the best radio-rom for prophet i ever used.
but that can be because i have Vodafone, dont know if its also the same with your provider...
but i should say, give it an try!
here you can download all Radio-Roms.
First of all, when u start flashing again to WM5/6 (doesn't matter what rom) always use HARD-SPL!
And i can advice you an good rom(although for me in case)

AND just dont use explosives like TNT on your device ....

G4 stuck on loader mode with logo

Hey guys,
I wanted to make some improvement with my Prophet, but firstly i flashed it with RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QtekWWE_Ship but then I spotted WiFi is not working properly, so I started to get newer ROMS but what was difficult to understand is that after i flash him i didn't have bootloader mode at any other ROM which I wanted to put in... now the phone is stuck on bootloader with logo of Qtek and:
IPL:2.15.0001
SPL:2.20.0001
GSM:02.47.21
OS 4.0.0.0
