I have moved from that rom a long time now....I would think you should too, but in anycase that is up to you. I would suggest you upgrade your radio though...saves power.

First problem
see this thread found with search function http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=496566&highlight=format+microdrive
Second problem did you do a hard reset after flashing the rom?
HTC always try the broken motherboard line but it is not true.
The problem was you tried to flash an SPL 1.2 rom instead of a SPL 3.5 rom
This is called the endless loop problem
do a search, the answer has been given many times.
Oh and don't post the question 5 times, people get annoyed and wonder why you didn't try the search function
many thx for your replay

OK
sequence of events:
flashed AP4 and everything was working for 1 wk
Microdrive started playing up
Touch Screen started playing up
Flashing different roms did not change this behaviour
These things happened after using a new memory card.
An alternative explanation would be that you have damaged your hardware
Did you drop the phone ?

Hi Mods and all
I am new in this forum .... and new with PDA in general ,.. although i have experience in regular cell phones ,,,
I have come up with an issue that i need help with from you guys who seem to be experts...
I have an XDA Atom which turns on upto O2 screen and freezez right there .. i tried to hard reset the phone but failed..
When i press power on and reset button .. screen asks me to press green and red key when i do it says clean boot .. and than do u want to reset your phone ? and than after that i tried to press all keys but nothing happens ,,,
I dont know wht is the problem but i think or assume that i have lost bootloader and or Rom ,,, Please help with this part
Also what tools do i use to flash what i have to flash as the PDA cannot connect with the USB becuase it is not turning on ,,, Please help with this part
Also what do i need to flash to this phone to revive it ,,,? please help with this issue ,, and where can ii download this files ,,
please explain step by step and or direct me to a link where i can geet this information
thank u in advance ,,,
Mike
Thanks for not replying ... but finally i managed ..downloaded the latest version of ROM and put the phone in flash mode by holding camera and reset key at the same time and flashed it ,,
make sure Battery is full ..
Now phone working just fine ..posted this for some other newbie like me
regards
mike
Drat. Got to this one too late. Sorry
Anyways, the Atom does have the tendency to lose track of its own extended ROM (You can actually see this happening if you use the WM5 hidden storage revealer - which ironically happens to cause the problem sometimes as well).
Symptoms include:
- A phracking long boot time (>7 minutes, seems to hang)
- Screen goes out of alignment
- Camera, Autoconfig, Equalizer don't work.
- Hard reset doesn't help.
- EXTROM info is missing from device settings (shows as blank) - tho sometimes the device works without this anyhoo.
- CMOS version is also missing (the device definitely won't work in this case)
Probable cause:
- Someone or something just tried to write to your hidden storage root. (Eh?)
Far as I know there's no method to recover other than flashing your phone again. Just one of the design flaws of the Atom, I guess...
(Yes, I feel for you. I had to solve this myself too, and I didn't want to send it in. Thankfully, this isn't a common problem. )
I've just downloaded the latest Rom from seeo2.com hongkong and I had the very same problem.
My XDA Atom Exec is frozen at the O2 screen.
mun66, if you read this, could you explain how you fixed it?
thanks.

would you plz tell here which rom u used for this ????????
Well, my Atom Exec will do the same sometimes.
But the following method works everytime!!!
Take out the battery. Charge it with a charger until full !!!!
Put it back to the machine, it works every time !!!
Or you may try just charge it in the machine for a few hours and see if that works. Since I always have a spare battery charged, every time that dumb thing stuck, I just changed the battery and it waked up again.

You guys just need to go into bootloader mode before performing an upgrade. For the XDA Atom just press Power+Dpad(center)+stylus reset momentarily, and its now in bootloader mode. RUN again the Update program. If you still experience the same thing, the update file you downloaded might be corrupted. You have to download again and flash your device again.
Mine is still stucked in O2 though done all of the above ways,
got the new ROM and flash it, but still stuck in it.

You might want to send it in the the service centre for a check, just in case it's a hardware problem.. If you still face the same issue even without installing any software..
That's probably a good idea, but i'd like to try some tricks on many threads before.
And also I've heard that O2 service center are not cool

Do keep us posted..
I will face the same problem if i install too much programs.. I guess it's either Pocket Plus, Diary 2 which is causing my problem.. Now wondering if i should change to Atom Life, since they announce WM6... If only there's a perfect phone.
Thank God, it's working after 5x flashing but it still had bug.
I still have to take the battery off for at least 15 minutes if I try to reset the Atom.
Sure 1 thing for ATOM, IT SU**S!!!
i have a friend also has a trouble like this ,but he has solved the problem when he charged the exec. do not you have a try ?
I just picked up one of these to play with.
Mine gets by the O2 screen but if I have a few apps on it it loads the Today screen but then freezes and won't let me access anything either by hard key or screen. Soft reset just repeats the cycle.
This is with only around 4 apps loaded. One of them must be a culprit?
By the way, it came shipped with WM6.0 (ROM: WWE_RC2170507B2).
Right, This is the basic Hard-SPL package; if you already have applied Hard-SPL with the unlocker then DO NOT BOTHER TO USE THIS PACKAGE.
This program is now foolproof as the SPL is flashed directly from the bootloader rather than from the OS so there's no opportunity for anything to go wrong.
for this to work, your device MUST BE RUNNING WINDOWS MOBLE and MUST BE SYNCED WITH THE PC.
to recap: IF YOU ALREADY HAVE 1.20/1.25, DO NOT USE THIS.
Thank you! I won't be waitin', though...
Whatever Trevor.

The SPL has nothing to do with it.

OK... just to make this clear.
Go to the Athena forum and download the unlocker; do Step 1 to flash Hard-SPL.
after that you can close the program if you don't need to unlock.
if I come out with new releases of Hard-SPL, the package will be posted here.

Unlocker for x7501?
Is this unlocker suitable for the x7501 WM6 unit as well? Also do you still need to flash the SPL on the x7501?
Lastly what is "SPL" and why can you brick your device if you don't carry out this upgrade?

Oli,
I have (had) a brand new unlocked 7501 Advantage. I followed your unlocker advice above to do step 1 very carefully and now have a bricked device after I saw the same error trying to backup my SPL file like others. Can you place a big bold warning on your SPL Flash link so that other people may not see the same fate...from reading the comments on this thread we are lead to believe that you suggest that we should flash to your SPL before trying a cooked ROM on the 7501 Advantage...
TIA

Are you able to get into bootloader? If I read correctly the answer should be no but I wanted to confirm either way. If no, how have you tried to get into bootloader? Key sequence in other words? Have you removed the SD card also?
You are correct, I cannot seem to get into the bootloader or even get the device to come alive at all. I tried camera + reset, volume down + reset, volume down + camera + reset, I looked all over the forum and found a few others but still no luck. All I see is the red LED around the Joystick either become solid lit (without battery in and on AC) or blink lit (with battery in and on AC). The light stays solid lit with battery out and all key combinations tried and does the quick blink lit with battery in and all key combinations as long as reset is pushed. Basically, it would seem that the reset key is working by resetting the circuit to the battery but the device just wont boot up.
I will be sending this unit back anyway due to a manufacturing defect of the SD card slot. When this particular unit was built, I guess no one actually checked to see if the a (mini not micro) SD card fits in, cause IT DON'T!! The slot was missed by about 2mm being to narrow in width...GEESH!!
I am not too happy with hardware of the 7501 right now and probably will look at getting the 7500 or Dopod version for "cooked ROM" pleasure but my advice to others reading this would be to not run out and get the 7501 at the lower price given the problems I am seeing. However, on a positive note, the few hours I did get the 7501 running, it was a blast and I still give the overall performance a 4.5 out of 5 star rating being the most complete and fastest PDA Phone I have had the pleasure to work with.

Man that sucks. Seems like you've tried the correct combination of keys to get into bootloader...just make sure you were pressing that camera button firmly because it's known not to take unless you do this.
What operating system is on your computer BTW? Windows XP/Vista?
I'm not sure I understood the problem with the SD Card. Do you mean to say that when you tried to put in a mini-SD card (not Micro), it wouldn't fit into the slot?
I tried to upgrade ny Orange SPV M 600
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
with wm6_smart1_v1.3 using ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.zip and now its not booting up it stuck up with the three color boot loader screen and i tried hard to hard reset but even after keep pressing the camera and communication button together and pressing the soft reset button with stylus for more than one minute it gave no response plz help its my friends phone and I am doomed if I cant make it up working.
If you disable the connect through USB option in ActiveSync, and then put the SPV in bootloader. Then flash it with a AKU2.2 ROM (Any will do including PV temp), then follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310452.
How do i put SPV in boot loader????
AKU2.2 ROM where do i find this the link(rapidshare) which is given in thread u told is not working and plz tell me if I will have to download a new rom after that or this wm 6.0 by smart1 will work
Hold the Camera button, and insert the stylus into the larger of two holes on the edge of the SPV with the power connector.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Hardreset_bootloader
ya i tried this by reading the thread u mentioned but it puts me back on the same three color screen however I have been able to hard reset and after I press send it said formating FAT something like this
You must enter the bootloader (three colour screen), Then set ActiveSync to not connect through USB (ActiveSync->Settings->connection Settings), Plug the phone into your computer through USB, Then run any of the RUU's from any Part One of here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308755.
Using the AKU2.2 ROM Update Utility, you should get a basic WM5 ROM. You MUST flash an AKU2.2 ROM before you flash a WM6 (AKU3.5) ROM.
Right now i am downloading this original roam from this link
ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-roms/Original-Shipped-ROMs/OrangeUK/
will this do????
Can I directly install AKU 2.20 after downloading or will I have to do anything more like putting some file in boot loader which u just said???
I dont want WM 6 anymore plz just advice in steps what I should do to get my phone up and running..............
Put the phone in bootloader, change the active sync settings, and then run the upgrade program!

It will do no harm, and there is a high chance it will work.
The RUU is fairly self explanatory-Double click on it and do what it says. The battery charge level is not a problem, so long as there is some charge.
Thanks a lot dude it worked I am relieved now
Thanks again boss
Salute!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to hear it
If you now feel experienced enough to upgrade properly, read this thread very carefully http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310452 (or at least the first post) and then this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308755

Well atleast he shouldn't notice the change.

Flash a radio that does not have ".51" in the name. Flash a radio that has ".50" instead. ***Make sure the ".50" radio is 2.06+ (don't flash anything below 2.06.50.xx).
Okay, thanks for your reply But i still cant make it work, are you sure its the radio causing this problem? I`ve now tried RADIO_2.10.50.28_2 (this is the only one with "50" in it among the recomended radios in the artemis thread...) , RADIO_2.12.50.02_2 and the mentioned above RADIO_2.07.51.22_2.7z.
Should i just keep going?
One more thing. When 2.12 and 2.10 was installed, the phone restarted by its self after about 30-60 sec on htc bootscreen. if that means anything?

Okay, thanks for your reply But i still cant make it work, are you sure its the radio causing this problem?

It's usually the radio that's the problem -- if your phone gets stuck on the bootscreen.
I'm not sure what else might be the problem.
Just in case, try this: Task 29, flash a .50 radio, flash a stock ROM (via USB), hard-reset.
If that fails, I don't know what else to say...
i tried the task 29 witout luck A couple more weird things though.. when i try to install a rom from the memory card, the bootloader doesn`t start the installation. I just says "serial". And Yes its formated with fat32 and im sure im doing it right. The other thing is that the phone starts by itself about 60sec after plugging in the charger.. i`m guessing this have to be a hardware problem. might be the usb connector as many seem to have problems with.
I`ve now put in a stock spl and will send it back for repair tomorrow.
Dammit, hspl i still there. Is the only way to remvoe it by using the sd-card? then i might be fu..ed regarding the warranty :S

I think so. Someone with more experience might be able to provide a more confident answer.
Are you sure you're renaming the ROM as "LEOIMG.nbh" (no quotes) and putting it in the root of the SD-card?

Hello dude!
Try using a microSD smaller than 8gb and formated with FAT32 (it's a known fact that 16gb microSD does not work for flashing.....).
If you want to remove the HSPL there is 2 ways:
1 - Flash a stockROM via SDcard, like you are trying to do.
OR
2 - Use the HSPL2 program to revert to the original SPL state.
If you could enter the bootloader, probably your phone does not need any special repairs.. Anyway.......
Try using a smaller SDcard to flash the radio and the ROM again. You could also try flashing via USB/PC.....
Do not forget to redownload the ROM, it could be a "bad download".
For more info take a look here:

Good luck!!
maybe a fix

Yesterday i put my hd2 in my pocket without locking the screen. when i heard it surfing around the menues i took it back up and tried to take it back to homescreen. As many times before the phone refused to respond so i took out the battery. But when powering it back on the **** wont pass the htc startup-screen!
I have read around this forum quite alot now and i have done hard reset a million times, i have installed an original updated rom from htc`s site. When this didn`t work i installed hspl3, Artemis v270 NOR and RADIO_2.07.51.22_2. And it still wont start!
Im getting quite sick of experimenting, so i`d be really happy if any of you smartguys could help me

hello guys,
someone at htcedia posted this fixes:
1) Install you HSPL.
2) Install your cooked rom.
3) Upgrade your radio. (Leo_RADIO_2.10.50.26)
4) Do Hard reset. (Hold Vol up and down also end call button) then press (Red reset button under back cover next to battery)
Fixes Freezing on HTC bootup screen.
and for me, when i remove the micro sd card the phone bootup but when the micro sd card is in the phone it wont.
so try to remove the micro sd card then reset a hard or soft reset ur device, keep ur micro sd out until ur r completely loaded, then put ur sd card back in the phone.
hello folks,
first off thanks to all the people who help make this forum better and better.
have used you're help a few times especially trying to flash a rom. but now there's a problem... I've installed artemis Rom a couple of times but I wanted the newest so I've downloaded it, flashed my hd2 with task29 like always. pressed vol. down button it restarted until white boot screen. ok, possible, so I reset it and press vol. down again. but still white boot screen. after trying it for 70(!) times. I used the forum. saw that maybe hooking it up to pc and starting custom rom .exe should work. but no. wont even start when hooked to a computer. so please help!
Info:
Cotulla hspl 1.42.00
Task29 by dooloop performed( got stuck after that)
Rom Artemis. 31.5 (current) 35.1 (wanted to install.
Thanks In Advance
Maajelvv
Two possibility's;
Tray to do a hard reset,
Ore tray to install Stock Rom!
tried hard reset. (pulled out battery waited 20 sec. then put it back in. pressed vol. down and power button.) didn't work for 30 times...
have put leoimg.nbh on sd card. but can't get to the tri-colour bootloader so can't install anything...
Thanks for you quick response by the way.
If I get into bootloader there should be no problem but I can't get there :S
I'm out off Idea; tray to send Sir Sternas a PM with your question, maybe he get some Ideas; ore tray to ask this question on the Artemis Thread, there are also helpful peoples out there!
Edit; I just add your question on the Artemis thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8450678#post8450678
you haven't made hard reset. if you wont to do hard reset you have to press both volume buttons and then pres power buton ( or press red button near batery ).
also try to make a goldimage ( search the forum ).

As Luka1111 said, you haven't done a hard reset. Check this out:
http://www.smartphonegurus.com/forums/topic/8829-hd2-how-to-soft-reset-hard-reset-and-place-in-bootloader-mode/
Dmm;
That I didn't see/read it correctly the way he did a hard reset??
I think it is HSPL 1.42 or an old RADIO-ROM.
System specs for Artemis are SPL 1.66 or above and RADIO 2.07.51.22_2 or above.
Install newest Stock ROM with the mentioned versions or flash HSPL and RADIO manually.
Best regards
Uli
Sorry, have not read you can't access tricolor bootloader. Have you tried without SIM and SD? If not try to flash HSPL and RADIO without SIM and SD.

What´s the size of your SD-Card? Flashing from SD works only with max. 8 GB - Card, 16 GB or more won´t work! (Own experience!)
Can you connect your device to ActiveSync? Or otherwise stated: What happens when you connect your device to your PC? Does ActiveSync or Windows Mobile Device Center even startup?
BTW, what happens when you start your device now? Does it hang or just load your old Artemis version??

Hi Uli,
the poor man cannot enter bootloader mode and, as I understand from his posts, not connect to his PC. So how can he flash HSPL and/or Radio? There must be something fundamentally wrong with his device, but I also had a similar problem a few weeks ago and, although it took a lot of time, I managed to get it to work again.
BTW, as I already mentioned SPL 1.42 is not the problem.

Hey Kuzibri, You are absoluteley right. I get no connection true active sync or anything. I'm pretty sure there's something really wrong here. never had this problem before. btw I've mistaken with
my spl version. it's the one Sir Sternas recommended. Spl 1.66 HSPL.
I'm Really confused right now. and Pissed off at the same time...
I mean I loved my HD2 with Artemis Rom close to beeing perfect.( installed Igo8 witch right before I went on holliday, stopped working but mannaged to get TomTom navi to work ) then suddenly my answer button stopped working. so I figured let's install a new Version of Artemis rom. I backed up all my files using microsoft my phone. then used task29. done. So I tried to get to the bootloader.... Nothing. tried attatching it to the pc and hoping it would start if I pressed the custom rom .exe (Read somewhere id might work) Nothing not even a blank screen for startup. now I've got nothing else I can think of. please, U guys have given me so much good suggestions.
Thank you all for your time and your efforts to help me solve this issue.

Hey guys,
maybe you haven't read my whole posting: Have you tried to get access to tricolor bootloader without pluged in SIM and SD?
If you had trouble with your answer button before flashing, is it possible your volume button is also without function? Therefore it seems to be a hardware problem.
Sorry, if this is not the answer you would like to read, but the advise to test without pluged in SIM and SD is my last. Entering bootloader is a basic system feature, as far as I know.
Best regards,
Uli

Hi,
I have send you a PM. Please read this ASAP!!

Hey Uli,
I've tried both. with and without sim or SD cards. still no functioning....
I've thought about the fact that it might be broken but it worked right before flashing....
thanks for your efforts though..

As I already mentioned, this poor guy has a major problem with his device, which seems to be hardware related (either volume down button does not work or the on/off key). After having extensive contact with him by phone, the only solution seems to be to bring it back to the store to let it repair. Unfortunately, he will have a great chance to loose his warranty, because HTC probably will be able to found that there is another ROM installed. Whish Maarten good luck with his problem!! Also very sorry I could not help you to solve your problem. I'm personally very disappointed by that!
