Well, there's no such rom 't-mobile radio prodigy',you are mixing things here.Its either Radio Rom or OS(Rom). Assuming by your post 'the beer image' as you say,it must be the "Button's Rom 1.05" with IPL/SPL 1.05 (G3 Bootloaders). Did you flash the Button's Rom 1.05 on your G4 device,well,if so then,its a "BRICK",coz flashing a G3 Rom with IPL/SPL in it'll certainly brick a G4 phone,Now nothing can be done with it.
well i've heard something of leaving it 24 hours without the battery and shoking the battery but no luck so far...isn't there any program that would recognize this brick as a flash memory so i could just put the bootloader back?and yes i have put a g3 rom on my g4....and it makes me feel like an idiot...can't i just jump start the thing into the bootloader?(T-Mobile_UK_2.19.11_Radinly - this is what i flashed)

Are you sure it was T-Mobile_UK_2.19.11_Radio only which you flashed and not the Button's Rom 1.05 ? coz flashing any Radio rom will not Brick any phone,regardless it being a G3 or G4,coz it doesn't include any IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) in it,its safe to flash to any G3 or G4 phone.
But what about you said it boots up to splash screen with a 'Beer Mug' on it,coz only Button's Rom splash screen displays a Beer Mug on it.
i'm certain this is what i flashed...and it was a beer mug(at least half of it) now it doesn't do anything...after i removed the battery it died
Could it be the battery?????

Strange !!!
A Radio Rom never flashes any splash screen and it never displays any splash screen,especially a Beer Mug splash screen,you must have been mistaken and downloaded and flashed the Button's Rom 1,05,which has G3 IPL/SPL in it,and now its Bricked,nothing can be done with it to revive,except replacement of the 'DOC Chip' (M-System Flash Chip),which I'm afraid is not possible by anybody other then the manufacturer/vendor of the device.
just found out that in the directory named T-Mobile_UK_2.19.11_Radinly was CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE....did i brick it?...and how much would it cost to change that chip?...any place i could order another motherboard? maybe it's another way to do it...maybe someone does know how to use JTAG...give me some advice please...

YUP !!! there it is,I was correct, its Button's Rom 1.05.
Well,yes ! its "BRICKED"
Only,manufacturer/vendor can provide you the motherboard or tell you the exact cost of it,or you can try the Ebay if they have it or can provide it.
Secondly,its still not known or if anyone can revive it through 'JTAG' ,guys here have been working on it,but were not successful and stopped trying it,you can have further info on it by checking out this link or 'Search' through google.

one more question and that's all...will the orange service or repair center notice that i've been "playing" with the device?maybe with a little luck they will replace it..or replace the motherboard :-S...thank you o much for helping
well....to all the readers of this post...i didn't manage to revive it through any method and decided to send it to the provider repair center...i have sent a message to caesar54 who managed to revive his wizard using jtag and waiting for a reply....IMPORTANT : DO NOT FLASH YOUR G4 DEVICE WITH A G3 ROM IT WILL BRICK YOUR PDA (I JUST FOUD OUT THE HARD WAY) SO REMEMBER..IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING....DONT DO IT...i will post updates on what i have done with mine if someone intersted...

Wish you a very goodluck there ! hope you get it working
thank you very much zabardast....i went to the orange shop where i was instructed by someone "high ranked" and someone over there told me that they have a tool that writes software even when the phone is dead...probably through a service cable or something...they said it would be back in 2 weeks maximum...and i will be informed of the price of the repair wich i will post (including my decision) anyway agan "DO NOT FLASH IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING"...hope it will get it back after 1 week functionally and cheap...i will search other forums and find posible solutions that i will post...till' then...good luck and work safe
until my phone comes back repaired or not i'm searching for an alternative...does anyone have a wizarrd to sell?preferably a broken one...broken display or something...but with the mainboard intact?
hello xardas_90
i have a recently bricked wizard (xda mini s)
now we are working on finding the jtag test points on the main board to reflash the
bricked 1 , so i am glad if u join us in thread (( Dead WIZARD Never! Let's REVIVE ))
to share info.s and to reach our goal . please join us
well when the board comes back be sure i'll help...but there would be another soluution...we could find a site or store that sell DOC chips...the rest is simple...we just need that chip...i'll search other forums for wizard jatg points...i really like your initiative...

dead GENE- TRY THIS
We can hard reset the device just by pressing and holding both the " -" keys right above the answer and end keys and pressing the power button . It will run the ghost image and recover the device ...
note :
1) make sure your battery is more than 50 % charged .
2)you must do a power cycle in your device ( take out the battery , then press and hold the power button ) before you do a hard reset ...
My device is back to normal...

Your battery is finished. I started getting that when my charger got messed up and starts taking power out of the battery instead of putting it in. Take out the battery,put it back in, then plug it to your PC and leave it there for a while.

If you have not completed 14 days after buying the device, just take it to HTC service center sying that your device is not booting. At least in my case, those guys couldn't figure out what is the cause (see how efficient they are ) and I got a replacement !

IPL 1.04
SPL 2.03

Hello STAMBITA, try with mtty for fix problem.
If your OS don't start you try JTAG mode because your Hermes is not super cid (SPL 2.03) for fix problem.
See the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=391047&page=17.
Regards
nico
STAMBITA do you have access to a rom provided by your telco? If so try to flash that rom while you're in the bootloader. Since your device isn't supercid it's either that, or JTAG or send it to a repair centre. I'm sorry.
I ve not access to room .with mtty nothing happen nothing .the last solution is to try jtag but is complicate to do.to send for repair centre it cost the price of new one?
Is there any chance to revive Chamer PM200 flashed with Prophet rom and after that tried to flash it with regular Charmer rom but pc restarted on near 30% of flashing,was on external usb supply,and now is completly dead no reaction,no bootloader mode
I finally managed to get back to life the Charmer after jtag and hundreds times flashing
But now it is another problem : " Data Crashes.Please contact your service center." :S :S
On wizard tool it shows diferent checksums on cid,gues cid and all data gone :S:S
Any idea of repairing that???Anyone???
You realize that you're on a Wizard board, not a Charmer board, right? You're never (well, probably never) going to get any relevant advice.
