Hi,
I wanted to downgrade my SPL3.5 and was preparing the device. I opened the battery slot, took out the battery, SIM and SD and put back the battery.
Since then the Athena won't turn on anymore.
What I did wrong: I did all of this with the USB cable connected.
I tried softreset, hardreset and nothing.
With Athena connected to Power, led will flash red when I reset. If i remove battery and connect to USB, red led will be permanently on.
Any ideas.
EDIT1:
Can it be that the battery is somehow corrupted? Unfortunatly I don't have another. Can one like reset the battery? Or do some tests on it, decharge it, etc?
Thanks,
vma
PS: The reason I did SPL1.2 > SPL3.5, tried AP40, tried WM6.5 and want to go back is that I am in bed at home with the flue (probably H1N1). And now I am totally pissed off, because my Athena won't work... arggghhhhh
It's alive again...

I managed to upgrade my phone to aku 3.3 using pof's method(bootloader 1.01 MFG) . Then, out of no where, I tried to use MTTY to upgrade my radio rom
It started as usual with the status bar moving. Suddenly some error messages came up.
Now, the phone is dead completely. I can''t even enter bootloader mode.
Is there a possible way that I can still save it??
Help!!!!
Have I bricked my device? Help plz

Now, the phone is dead completely. I can''t even enter bootloader mode. Only when I take out the battery and plug in the charger cable the red light comes on. I looked the upgrade problem page, my symptom doesn't match any.
Is there a possible way that I can still save it??
Help!!!!
I had something similiar happen a little while back. What I did was pull the battery out and leave it out for a while, maybe a few minutes. I then put the battery back in and held the two side buttons and hit the reset button to put me into bootloader mode. I then cabled it to my computer and flashed a new OS via mutty. That got my phone back and operational.
@float. Nuh, it didn't work on my brick. Prob i will have to take it back to Tmobile if they kind enough to repair the no warranty phone i bought on ebay.
Sorry to have opened a new thread, I was so desperate.
Plz delelte it.
how exactly did you try to update the radio using mtty?
I download the 1.27 shipped radio rom. P.S. It seemed to be a german version, not sure whether that caused the disaster.
Using NBHextract to get the single GSM.NB file, then in MTTY, typed
USB> task 32
USB> lnb GSM.NB
Before flashing, just had it upgraded to the HTC AKU3.3 OS rom only. The old version radio rom version before flashing was 1.18.
Maybe the order i flash is wrong. I flashed OS first then the radio rom.
just guessing
ok, you loaded the radio rom code where os.nb should go. That may have caused mega bad blocks in flash. Can you even get bootloader mode if you reset using Wiki directions to obtain Tri-color bootloader?
Yes. I have tried many ways wiki suggests. Such as removing the battery leaving it more than half an hour and plugging it to the usb cable without battery. still can't get to the tri-color bootloader mode. Basically, I just can't turn on the phone.
If you connect it to the computer, can it communicate w/the PC? If you hear the windows tones try opening up mtty and see if you can communicate.
i'm stuck in the same place
for me it happened during extrom flash
Try removing the battery for a bit (a few minutes, maybe half an hour). Then, put the battery back in but don't plug the usb cable in. After that, hold the two side buttons as if you're trying to get it to go into the bootloader. Hit the reset button a few times with your stylus and see if that gets you to the bootloader. That's what worked for me.
tried that
tried removing battery and connecting usb
nothing helps

Thanks in advance
First of all, its not bricked. Bricked = doesn't turn on, nothing, blank screen.
I've looked to your info, you already have HardSPL, so you can flash directly using any RUU, don't use shelltools!
Enter bootloader (hold camera+reset), open up the RUU of the ROM you want (make sure it doesn't have any IPL/SPL) and flash away
well I looked all day what to do and I can not find solution
I just can not understand how to flash the phone
I found one solution via some kind of Wizard_love, but again I do not know what to do
Please help i am haveing the same thing just did it today i have the Cingular 8125....i have held camera+reset and got into these Red,Green,Blue,white screen and it says IPL 2.25 and SPL 2.25 now when i run the ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID it does not work i have my usb pluged in and my phone says USB please help

You guys wanna see bricked? I have a BRICKED! phone... My MDA was the unfortunate victim of a car accident. When my car went carreening off the road, my MDA went flying through the air and ended up on the floor of the car but not before hitting virtually every surface on the inside of the car.
Now my charge port is completely snapped off and my battery shorted out when I was trying to hold the charge port in place to charge it and fried the main board. DEAD. NO MORE.
THAT MY FRIENDS, IS BRICKED....
No worries though, I already ordered a TyTN II
Cool can you help?
Oh and i had the same problem with my mda and i got it replaced from tmobile. - the easiest way to reapair an MDA is getting it replaced ^^

first of all,as dferreira has assured u that ur device is not bricked,secondly ,you already have HardSPL,that means your device is unlocked,just follow his instructions,download any wm6 Rom and flash,it'll good to go,but if u still want to be sure,download WST Tool from the below given thread read carefully and apply the tool to verify the status of ur device,

u can flash NBD rom which u have or any other wm6 rom,goodluck
NVM i am on the Other Page! Thanks
Ok, i have read everywhere and can't help myself, so if someone would be kind enough to help it would be much appreciated
Ok, Used SoftSPL and tried flashing the ROM. It manages to get to 99% and then just goes RED. I have tried 3 different ROMS and same story it goes RED at 99%.
When i remove the battery, it goes to the RUU Red, Green and Blue screen. SPL version is 2.16.0001. Not Oli's new one.
What do i do from now?

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,

I have one Tytn that was bricked while flashing Radio rom. I tried everything that I could find on this forum and nothing (flashing from Win, flashing form SD card, tried with mtty - no luck). When I try to flash any radio rom it stucks either on 0% or 12%. I could boot the OS, but the problem now is that I wanted to try one more thing - to downgrade SPL (it was IPL 1.04 and SPL 2.30 Olipro). I used Hard-SPL v7 first but it didn`t downgrade, and then I tried the procedure for downgrade from mrvanx, frist with Hard-SPL v2. And then I was shocked. After the flashing procedure was 100% complete the device turned off, and now I can`t turn it on. I removed the battery for couple of minutes - nothing. It`s dead. It is like there is no battery (it is not the battery, i tried with another one that works), nothing happens when I press the power button.
Did someone had this problem. Is there any hope it could work. If I can`t bring it alive, could the HTC service do it???
Sorry for opening this topic that fast, but i was in a shock when it happened. I succedded to bring it on, I didn`t know that hold the reset button longer! Maybe this could use to someone. Never give up

I have your same promblem..
Once downgraded to old spl you were able to upgrade the radio rom?
Is it correct?
I thought that I will be able, but it seems that my radio bootloader is corrupt. I am reading now the forum, and I think (if I understood it) that I have to write raw radio rom (.nb file). Am I right? Anyone!
hi guys..

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 !

We need more info...
Is your phone CDMA or GSM?
Did you flash HardSPL from XDA?
Can you enter the boot screen and try to reflash the Hard SPL?
Problem #1 is that you need to flash hard spl off of a pc through a usb cable. Like it says in the thread (assuming you read it), you can't flash hard spl off of an sd card.
Try soft resetting, and see if the phone boots up normally. Did you flash the correct hard spl (incorrectly)? If you used a hard spl from the wrong device, the game may be over. My advice is to download the proper hard spl and to flash it according to the instructions in the thread.
