hi everybody..
i've got a serious problem..
here's the story..
i was trying to upgrade to the touch v7 by mr. gullum.
after downgrading my prophet to the no vendor id rom, i upgraded my device to the touch v7.
next i tried to hard reset my prophet, realised that i can't do it cuz my camera button is not working.
went to a phone repair shop and fixed the button..the solder was..loose? i mean, the thing was unconnected from the pcb.
fixed it and tried to hard reset again.
black screen of hard reset appeared, but when i released the comm button, it went straight to the white screen showing os ver and ipl, spl ver.
tried to hard reset again and failed, it entered the white screen where we can restore rom dumps..i immediately pressed the comm button and camera button again..and it started formatting the bnfs..thing?
still can't do hard reset, tried to flash the no vendor id again, and this is the problem..i get stuck on 95% and after that it jumps to 100% straight away.
tried to flash gullum's touch v7 but i got the message that no device detected...tried pv 5.0.0.0.5b, pv 4.00.0.6, nanoscopic all with same result...
anyone can help?
oh maybe this will help:
when i tried to flash the no vendor id again, what shows up is this..(see attachment) the from image version is blank..
on the 95% where i get stuck, the progress bar on my device turns red as when it happens on the 80%.
thank you, everybody...

In my experience, what you describe is very normal . The RUU seems to stop at 80% and again at 95%. So far nothing out of the ordinairy.
But after that the device should start up and reconnect with ActiveSync. When it tries to pair choose "connect without setting up your device" (or something like that, I'm translating from dutch). After that, it should be no problem to run Upgrade.bat from the WM6 ROM of your choice.
For more detailed describtion, read the upgrade guide.
try any of this roms (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316062)... maybe you have spl 3.08???
it's not that..
hi there,
it's not that usual mistake people make..i think i've screwed my hardware too..
now, my previous problem was unable to hard reset because my camera button was not working..the solder was loose..
i've soldered it and the problem was after every succesful attempt to flash 'no vendor id' rom, it resets and goes to bootloader screen again (tricolor screen)..
late last nite, i tried to hard reset after succesful flash of 'no vendor id' rom (after it resets and enters the bootloader screen)..i succeeded to get into the black screen of hard reset but when i released the comm button, it went straight into the htc white screen without me being able to press any button at all..
everything went well though, and it went to the 'tap screen to set up your device'..at this point i tried to flash the 'nanoscopic' rom (last rom i use before i messed up this phone)..it went well!
after succesful attempt, i tried to hard reset again (no luck again), but after the htc screen shows up, the nanoscopic splash screen appeared!!!
whew, i thought i had my phone fixed already, but when i did a clear storage, it resets and enters into bootloader screen again! i tried soft reset via software and via manual way, and it enters the bootloader screen everytime!
now, i've fiddled some more and i now realise that just by pressing the comm button and doing soft reset can make me go into the bootloader screen..i'm guessing that the technician at the phone shop soldered wrongly...and now my comm button works as camera button too..
i think he accidentaly soldered some other button too to the comm button and that's why i always get into the htc white screen after i release the comm button in the black screen of hard reset..
i'm going to go back to the shop again after work today, but i'm still confused about the way my device enters bootloader after every reset (hard reset and soft reset)..
a friend gave an opinion that maybe, like in desktop, (there's the bios then there's the operating system), the 'bios' of my device is ****ed up?
any help greatly appreciated!
another possibility
another possibility is that my camera button is always pressed and therefore i need only press comm button and soft reset to get into hard reset screen?
i'm gonna check after work today..

It lookslike something is screwed-up... And I agree with you that the cam-buttonis most likely... Succes anyway

i think your camera button connection is short (always pressed down) if you get to hard reset screen by only pressing the comm manager button.
hmm...
too bad..yesterday the technician was out of tow..think i'll go there again this afternoon after work..
wish me luck..
NVID Success
I've got the camera button fixed, and i've flashed the NVID rom succesfully!
i'm now in the process of flashing the Transformer 1.0 by Cloudyfa..
All the best to me!
it's done!
it's done!!!
it's fixed!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!
I have tried flashing about 3 different ROMS and they the RUU stops them at 99%. The bar on the phone goes RED.
Please dont get confused with my signature, the phone is a Wizard and is running SPL 2.16.001 (G4).
The phone remains in bootloader mode (Red Green Blue screen)
What do i do from now?
Just tried again and it stopped at 100% and then went RED.
Been reading on all wizrd forums, and I dont think this has happened before.. (Well I cant seem to read it anywhere).....
Any help would be much appreciated...
Thanx
From EquinoXe:
Soft SPL only allows you ONE update, so phone is CID unlocked only when Soft SPL is loaded.
It's normal for the RUU to stick on 99 % for a couple of minutes, The whole update will take aprox 10 minutes.
You can try the hard SPL from there you are semi-permanently CID unlocked.
Good luck,
EquinoXe
Thanx for your quick response...
After it goes red an error pops up with the option of recovering...
I have tried the RUU that came with the SoftSPL package and MUN's RUU...
i think even if its a red Bar its still updating. just wait.
hi, sorry if nobody responded before, i dont know if they did so i dont know if you are being sarcastic. Leave it. Literally. Put it on, and let it update until it says something else. dont cancel it or unplug it. leave it doing it. then if a PC error comes up copy it here. Simple as that
Flash back to your original stock ROM/Wizard Love ROM first, then use SSPL again and flash your next ROM.

Thanx! That Wizard Love ROM manages to do the trick!
I think some of the ROM's you did would of been fine. You just have to be patient. Let it do it, watch some TV while its doing it. Wait for the PC to give you a successful message or an error message!

As already stated above, this is NORMAL phenomenon.
Whenever I flash a new ROM onto my wizard, it always reaches 99% quick, and then, seems to be stucked there for ages. No big deal.
Just wait, the bar turns red, so what? it doesn't matter. After a while, it will complete the 1% left that take so long. I don't know the reason either, but it doesn't affect the flashing, nor it does for the phone itself. You just have to wait, patiently.
G4 stuck at 99%
hi man,
i ahve a wizard G4, i tried to upgrade to TNT WM6.0 and in between flashing my power went out...now i'm not able to flash....the upgrade bar reaches 99% then goes to recovery mode...no other rom is flashable
please advise buddy
nash
The bar turning red is a very normal phenomenon... Basically to make this very simple for all who don't believe us or freak out every time you see a red bar, this is what your wizard is doing.
GREEN:: Rom is flashing
RED:: Rom flashing is TEMPORARILY paused while RUU adjusts it's speed to finish the job.
BLUE:: Rom flashing is complete.
My suggestion to all who are flashing roms and are too impatient to take your eyes off the screen: go smoke a cigarette or get a bite to eat out of the fridge or watch some TV or hell, go for a quick drive to the convenience store down the street to buy a pack of gum to kick your computer addiction. It works for cigarettes...
In other words... BE PATIENT. It is not the end of the world if it goes red. Now if it gives you an error message it's still not the end of the world. Just flash back to your carriers original rom or give it a little Wizard Love and then try again...
Best of luck to you all...
Just wait patiently when red bar is shown (Official meaning of red bar is adjusting write method of flash memory).
It may stuck at 100% with red bar for as long as 5 minutes.
I got the same probleme with my trinity, RUU got stuck at 99% and then I get an update error from RUU and I can't flash nor restore any flash !
I am now stuck in bootloader and looking for a real solution, what can I do to have a working rom !?
same problem
I have a qtek 9100 and still 99%, but now, dosent respond, i tried soft and hard reset but only i have a black screen, no lights... nothing...
I removed the batery for a day... but still black..
Pleeeease.. Help me.
thanks
i installed Olipro 2.10 1 month ago and flashed my phone with VP3G's rom. Phone worked fine for many months. Today, i restarted my phone... now it wants to stay on the tri color screen on the restart.... Every now and then it will let me boot the phone up normally, the phone will work fine, till i restart. It will be stuck again. I can reinstall the rom and it keep hanging on the restart. I feel I had read through all these forums, but can seem to get it going. Any sugestions would be nice.

Thats odd... Could be a few things -Have you tried taking the battery out for a few moments and then doing a hard reset - If not it's worth a try...
Have you tried the steps listed under problem 4 here - if so what happened and is your radio OK?

I left the battery out for about for a few minutes. It will let me do a hard reset, but it is still on the same screen. I have been to the page ya linked to me, i couldn't get it working with that info.
i am trying mtty.exe again. I am typeing in "set 14 0" at the command line, using the usb option. I also typed in "set 16 0" at the command line, with nothing different.
I just ran Mtty, use the checkimage comand, got
IPL CRC checksum = 0x6FFCE832
SPL CRC checksum = 0xC27E0E42
CE CRC checksum = 0x7C63DA31
ExtROM CRC checksum = 0xA47162D9
Radio Image CRC checksum = 0x9A7FAE7
My phone booted up again, went through the startup screen . i configured the touchscreen, Rebooted then everything was fine. I was able to call out with it. I tried to restart it again just to see if the triscreen would come up again... it did.

Bizarre! This is a daft question, but your OK button (or any other buttons) isn't sticking is it?
I called ATT this morning. They told me to do a soft reset, then once it rebooted... Do a hard reset. It's been fine ever sence. I'll let yall know if it comes back.
Last night I received an alert on my phone stating "This copy of Windows Mobile expires within 30 days on 12/01/2009."
This morning I reloaded Da_G's 23420-fuze-uncompressed ROM and received the same expiration message.
Is there a fix for this expiration date or is someone working on it? I have attached a screen shot to show the message. My apologies for it not being clear, iPhones don't have the ability to take good macro photos.
Oh yeah, and I did a search and found nothing on the topic.

From the looks of it, the shell wasn't patched during the cooking process. Odd, you say this is Da_G's ROM? Usually he is on top of things.
Wot daaaa :S
Try this: bump your calendar up a month, and see if the device pukes on you. It won't; the shell has been patched, but the notifications are still in the queue. You can delete the notifications with dotfred's task manager or sk tools.
Actually I am having the same issue!! Was using Baseline ROM and got the Error. I changed date to 1/1/10 and POOF WinMo is now gone =( cant use phone at all...... !!
What do you mean WinMo is gone? It doesn't start anymore? That is weird indeed. You should fash a new ROM and see what happens...
its gone as in a white message and everything is disabled.. cant even get rid of the expiration message..
Cant flash to new Rom cause comp wont even find it anymore when usb is connected.....ugh!
i had my phone disappear once You get a message that your version expired and then you can't enter any apps and data connections are disabled. All you need to do is force a hardware hard reset of the device - it was restore your ROM and you'll start the clock over. It's not fun but iut's better than a phone that's nonfunctional.
i think you need an patched shell32.exe, because yours is timebombed, but actually(since last week) i dont know where to get this patched exe...
which os build do you use? maybe i have one 4 you
maybe search this thread:

Did you flash a Rom without first flashing Hard SPL?
If you have flashed with Hard SPL you should be able to run the boot loader by pressing Vol down button and reset at the same time, keep holding the Vol down button and the boot loader screen should load. You should them be able to connect to your pc and re flash another ROM.
Other than that if you have flashed a ROM without first flashing Hard SPL then you must have ignored all the warnings which strongly suggest that you could brick your phone. I hope this is not the case.
nice news
sorry mates but i really like this messages. coz i always hated wm6.5 and its honeycomb desıgn. may be it pushs cookers to make beauty wm6.1 roms

You can do what he said and you should also be able to flash from your SD card. Please say you have a card reader.

I'm 99% sure you can't replace the shell.exe file once a ROM has been flashed. It's something that has to be cooked into the ROM. Anyone have any success replacing the shell.exe after a flash?

I'm re-flashing the phone now, so it will be back to normal in about 20 minutes. I guess we have ~30 days to get a fix for it.

I'm surprised that it snuck in; I've tested my 23081 build (which has the notifications), and the timebomb was patched properly. Maybe you should pm Da_G just so he knows. You can sometimes overwrite shell32.exe I believe, but it's not a great way to fix things. You're better off cooking in the patched shell.
HI, im using Energty 23016 25/10 and no message until now. I has sync with my phone and everything its normal...

Ok, turn your phone off. Now, simultaneously hold vol down, hold the power button, and use your stylus to press the reset button on the bottom. That will take you to the tri-color screen. Plug your USB into your phone and reflash.

One and only one thing comes to mind. You must continue to charge when you boot this even if your battery is 100%. Use power cord to turn on NT and keep it powered for the entire time. It (ubuntu) freaks without power and shuts down!
I hope this is your problem if not please tell more including which NT 8 or 16 gig, etc.
Good luck!

um, i know you're all stressed out, we've all been there ( me too ), but the guy above me is right. . . plz give us more information. . if it won't boot internal, will it boot boot something up on the external sd card ?

it boots from sd. and after i installed cyanogenmod 9 again, it didnt boot into it
i tried something else and i got this:

are you a 8GB or a 16 GB unit ?
is it true you are installing cm9 internal ?
you try to fix and now the internal is corrupt ?

if ( and a very big "if", ie. do not assume ) your partitions are corrupt ( from a past step gone bad ) then you have to go thru the partition re-build step ( in the dev area ) . . but can you boot up in ubuntu and examine your partitions first - see what shape they're in ?

i do not have the experience to help with a corrupt partition. ( if it is a corrupt one ) . i have not had to fix / repair a corruption on my unit . . i was lucky that the adam outler restore ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1470910 ) fixed mine and it went back to a factory boot-up . . my thought is that your NT is not corrupted because the boot is working . . the boot just fails to load the next piece . . ( i took some time and read over the 'partition repair' posts and they scared the hell out of me ! . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1605664&highlight=damaged+partition+table ) my advice is to not re-format. do not re-partition. the senior people see the new people dive into un-necessary ( wrong ) steps way too early / often. . the senior people say they see 'relatively easy' fixes turned into a mess. . http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1635116
