so my screen has stopped responding to touch, which after looking around, seems to be a hardware problem.
unfortunately, this means i need to take it to t mobile to have it fixed or replaced, but to do this i need to flash a stock rom onto it.
im not sure how to do this, as i cant use the phone to do it, due the screen not working.
please help!
did you do a search??there is a million posts about returning to stock, basic is download the offical rom you should be using, extrack the .nbh file, copy it to SD and rename it to LEOIMG, turn ur phone on with volume down, should then ask to install, it returns it all to stock, radio, spl the lot

thanks for the reply! I'm having trouble, though. when i restart the phone with the volume down button pressed, it goes the three colored screen, but gives no option to install the file.
I forgot to mention before that this is a t-mobile phone, does that make a difference? should i name the nbh something else?
thanks for any and all help, really appreciate it.

So was following directions to upgrade to nuerom, and i accidently installed the old bootloader 1.2 (olipro), and so i then upgraded the ROM afterwards to the nuerom.
Well now my phone turns on and goes to the HTC screen but just sits there and does nothing.
Hard and soft reset don't change anything...what can i do?!
run the re-locker and then the 2.4 bootloader
you can find them both here

put it in bootloader mode first...hold down "Power Button" + "Camera Button" & press the "Reset Button" with stylus, and then try it...plus u dont have to be connected w/ activesync
no active sync
If you cant connect to active sync, open active sync on home pc go to conections and uncheck usb connection that helped me last night

if you follow his way it works but also
*please be cautious i'm new but i know my stuff*
your going to have to format the micoSD card to FAT32 with a MicroSD card reader or some type of MicroSD to SD converter(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MicroSD)
(goto my computer/ right click the drive it was assigned to and click format... then under "file system" click on FAT32 then click format)
Download the rom update from HTC
Open the exe in WinRAR (rarlabs.com)
Find RUU_signed.nbh (it will be the biggest file)
extract it onto your desktop and rename it to TITAIMG.nbh
Move the file over to the formatted card and then insert it into phone.
Hold down "Power Button" + "Camera Button" & press the "Reset Button" with stylus
and done your phone should reconfigure back to how it would be "Virgin"

Trying to flash from sd card Still in loading mode help
It is in loading mode for a half in hour is that normal
i have never used the sd card...bit i believe its gotta write about 50+mb of stuff to ur fone...it takes about 10 mins over usb2.0 (it doesnt really go to that speed) so i guess it can take that long
please post how long it took if it goes successful for others to know...thanks
I'm having the same problem here.
I ran the relocker, but it still says SPL-1.20.Olipro... I don't know why it didn't relock... what should I do, the SD option didn't seem to work either...

i got it fixed...basically what you have to do is go into the bootloader like everyone said and then i reflashed it with the original rom...after that i learned that you have to run the radio in order to boot
it take 5-10 min its really fast... try it again or grab a different ROM
SD card Flashing wont work.
I Really Am stuck. Flashing did not seem to work left it in the downloading for over an hour, then gave up. (I was trying to update to DCD Titan 2.1.0, From Sprint 2.17.651.0, Radio Version 1.47.01 ORIGINALY gave me problem Stuck in htc black screen)
I wont connect activesync, or usb peroid, so I formatted SDcard to FAT32, put the Sprint 2.17.651.0.nbh file into the card renamed it TITAIMG.nbh, and tried to flash. (Loading screen for over an hour, then gave up)
Some else said somthing about flashin 3.16 because of radio issues.
(from going 2.17, to DCD 2.1.0) but I cant find 3.16.nbh. if anyone could Link me to it that would be cool.

When you go into bootloader mode (power/camera/reset), what bootloader version is displayed on the screen? When you upgraded to the DCD ROM, did you also flash the new radio?
Can I add my dilemma to this thread? My Mogul also won't boot up. It gets to the yellow Sprint logo screen and then just shuts right back off.
I also, hard reset and that doesn't help. I can get to the bootloader screen but trying the Relocker means it wants my phone connected via Activesync (it calls for that in the DOS window that pops up), Activesync doesn't recognize the connection since the phone is in BL mode. Nothing I've tried so far has worked and some people on howardforums have tried to help and said I needed to install the radio only first and then go from there but I have had some trouble finding the original Radio as a download by itself.
Any takers on how I might be able to get this bad boy up and running again?
PS. I've also tried to install the original ROM found on the official HTC website and that didn't work either.
I appreicate if anyone can help both of us (the guy who posted the thread, too) out.
try extracting the relocker and then flash it.
Thanks guys this thread really helped me

If this is directed towards me, I extracted the relocker but I don't know what you mean by "flash it"
I thought flashing the ROM meant reinstalling a previous version or something. I've already tried running the relocker but like I said it requires an activesync connection but that doesn't work since I can only access R/G/B mode.
All the files inside the relocker are gibberish to me. Don't know what any of those things do separately.

Thanks, after pulling out my hair for a couple of hours, I finally was able to get it to work. The stock rom wouldn't flash at first for me, but I was able to get it to work on the third try... everything seems fine now...

If you are in bootloader, try flashing the "unofficial leaked" ROM. NOT one of the custom ROMs based on it, but the complete leaked package; it includes compatible bootloader, radio, and ROM, and should get you back up and running. You should then be able to run the old relocker and the old official radio and ROM package if that is what you are trying to do.

So I was trying to fix my start menu problem, by installing a new rom, and now im stuck at this screen that is red green blue and white stripes, and says
"TITA100 MFG
SPL-2.4.0 Olipro
CPLD-9"
doing a hard reset did nothing! Brought me right back to the striped screen.
Explain it like your talking to someone who doesn't know much about phones, like me!
Thankyouu
Oh your killing me;-)
Well what you have is good so far because it is what you want to see, but more info is needed like what ROM are you trying to load and stuff like that. If you reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally want to short cut the process then read the threads that talk about this and you just do the next steps:
1) Flash the unlocker (thats what you have done and where you are now)
2) Flash the ROM (Thats what you need to do now)
3) Flash the Radio (if you don't do this then you will really get scared)
4) Reload all your stuff and enjoy.
thanks for the reply, how do I begin to flash the rom? I've downloaded so many and run them with winrar and nothing happens it just stays at that screen.
i'm also very pissed off because I hard reset hoping to get out of this stupid screen and now im still there, with out any data. I'm stupid and didnt backup either so now i'm really screwed...
you need to run the rom loader - winrar is not a rom loader.
Download a ROM and the ROM Update Utility. Place the ROM's .nbh file into the RUU folder and run the RUU.
Read around, it's not difficult.
When I try to run the RUU, it says error 260 connection, even though my computer detects it, and it says USB on the bottom of the phone... anyone know whY?
Make sure your USB connection in ActiveSync is turned off. You may need to reboot.
alright I'll check when I get home... but when I did have it connected, activesync didn't detect it, so I dont know if thats what you mean or not.
For those of you who also read PPC Geeks, this is the same problem. I am just trying to cover more area and hopefully stumble across somebody that has a solution to my problem.
The current situation is that the phone will not boot at all. I can hard reset it, I can enter into the bootloader (which is no2Chem 2.47) and I can flash ROMs to it. However, when I try to boot the phone, the black HTC logo flashes for about half a second and then I get a black screen.
I have tried flashing the Sprint ROM available on HTC's website (RUU_TITAN_SPRINT_WWE_3.56.651.0_RS_TITAN_3.42.02_ SPCS2.04_PPST_0718_Ship.exe) and this one: RUU_TITAN_SPRINT_WWE_3.35.651.2_RS_TITAN_3.35.04_4 350H_SPCS_AM_Ship.exe.
I've hard resetted, soft resetted, taken the battery etc. Anybody have any idea what I should do or why this is happening? Thanks for the help!
Try some things here.
Follow section B. Usb Downgrade, I believe..

I wasn't able to do any of that since I cannot create an Activesync connection between my phone and pc.
I think you may have messed up your bootloader, try and get another one installed on it. I recommed olipro 2.40 and radio 3.35 but you can use a higher radio. Dude you dont need an active sync connection, read the wiki article further. At most you would need the WMmodem drivers installed on your computer. Just put the phone in bootloader (power, camera, reset) and run the tools on the wiki site i linked to you. You can run RUU Rom Update Utility from your Home computer while phone is in bootloader mode, you do not need to have the phone fully booted into windows mobile and synced, or even connected to active sync. Hope this helps I could be wrong though, just try some things and read.
I tried running the TITAN_RELOCKER.EXE, but it wouldn't do it since it didn't have an ActiveSync connection. I have tried the RUU with multiple NBH files. Trying to flash the radio, rom, and/or spl. I will try the bootloader stuff again. Thanks.
EDIT:
Found a new symptom. When I don't have the power cable in I can use the power button to turn on the device and the top right light is green. When I plug it in the light flashes red and won't let me use the power button to turn it on, but will do the same "flash the HTC boot screen" if I soft reset.
Try renaming the .nbh file to TITAIMG.nbh and put it in a 1GB or less microsd card and then press the power button + the camera Button together and hold, and then press the reset button that is located next to your usb charging/syncing slot
good luck
I will give that a try. Does anyone have the nueSpl NBH or any other bootloader for that matter? I can only find the exe to run on the phone and I can't do that.
Hmm it says flash a boot screen? Sounds like you may need to do just that. I have never heard of the blinking red light other than low battery. You can try using PPC Geeks kitchen to build your own rom (temporarily) and you can choose which bootscreens you want to use. If you get the bootscreens to succesfully flash you can either test the ROM and see if you like it or flash the ROM of your choice and it will not overwrite your bootscreens, some overwrite the windows 6.1 screen but most of them do not.
PPCGeeks.com How to unlock device and cook your own rom
Read through that thread and download the PPC Kitchen, now dont open the kitchen run the kitchen updater, pick titan files, and the newest build 20931 and get started after that.
Dont pick an animation just splash, sub splash, and the Windows 6.1 splash. Now run it let it do its thing just make sure you are in bootloader before plugging in to computer. If the flash still doesnt work then you can try the MicroSD card method. Format the card to FAT32 and make sure its totally empty(not even a folder). Now navigate on your computer to mydocuments/buildOS RUU, then look for the RUU_Signed.nbh and copy and paste it to the Memory card and Rename to TITAIMG.nbh now put the card in your phone and then into bootloader mode(power camera reset same time) and let it try flashing. If you still cant get it to work and you have tried starting from scratch then the phone may be a brick. Hard to tell now try some more things.

Hi All,
I flashed my HTC Fuze with the below ROM
Calkulin's Visual HTC Kitchen v4 for Touch Pro and my mobile is dead now. I missed to unlock the phone before running this update (although very clearly mentioned in the instructions )
Since the mobile is not booting I am not able to flash it with any other ROM or revert back what I did. Computer does not recognize the mobile through ActiveSync. I tried resetting the mobile (Power button + volume down button + OK button), it even says restoring to factory settings, but after restart still hangs at the AT&T screen.
Can anyone please help me out here or I need to take my phone to AT&T service, but that would be the last thing to do as I think the warranty is void with this tampering.
Well, I'm pretty sure that Calkulin cooks for the Herman (aka cdma touch pro). This is your problem (and maybe not your only one).
Flash a stock rom off your sd card.
Edit: Wow, that link takes you to the cdma Diamond forum at ppcgeeks. What were you thinking?
Thanks a lot Ted...!
Thanks a lot Ted. You are my "knight in shining armor". Atleast I have some hope, I think
You just said "Flash a stock rom off your sd card.". Can you please let me know or direct me to a post that tells how to flash rom off the sd card? I am however searching for the best fit for my set.
Also, I think i need to search for an appropriate ROM for my fuze this time.
Thanks again.
Um yeah...you might've just bricked your phone. Your best bet is trying to reflash your phone with an OEM ROM via a MicroSD card, then going to one of the cooked GSM roms on this forum.
Look at the stickied threads in this forum for the procedure and links to an ATT rom.
If that doesn't work, you could try going to an ATT store and playing dumb...there's a small chance they'll replace it under warranty if it hasn't expired yet. If all else fails...you might be able to score a fuze from ebay on the cheap...I'm sure there's a lot of people upgrading to touch pro 2.
Thanks for your reply.
streetlight22 and Ted, Thanks for your reply. I will try this today. Keeping my fingers crossed . If this works, I would be happier than ever (not because I could save some bucks.. but because I love my fuze and can't see it dying).
Every where the step says "renaming the ROM nbh file to RAPHIMG.nbh or something like that. I am wondering if I also need to rename the .nbh file to something before running the update.
The rom image will be named ruu_signed.nbh (if it's a custom rom) or something longer if it's a stock rom. You should try a stock ATT rom image. Just rename it, stick it on the root of your sd card (must be FAT32), and see if you can go into bootloader. If you can't get into bootloader, you're screwed. Remember to hold volume down for several seconds after soft resetting. Press it down before soft resetting. If the tri-color screen doesn't appear, you're in trouble. It should appear briefly, then go grey with a message like 'loading image,' then it will tell you to push power. But if you flashed a diamond cdma rom, you may have totally screwed things up. Most people seem to recover from cdma touch pro roms, but if it's from a different device, you may be screwed.
Hi, if the tri colour screen appears you can try flashing trough your PC, it should find new hardware (htc hot sync or similar), then there should be USB written in the lowest part, then you can flash watever you want from the PC in the manner you are used to.
It worked.. it worked.. my fuze is now up and running WM 6.1. Thanks to all...! Special thanks to Ted for his quick reply and the tip "Remember to hold volume down for several seconds after soft resetting. Press it down before soft resetting". This is what I was not trying inorder to connect fuze with my laptop. My set is back to normal, up and running cool...
Once again thanks to everybody. xda-developers is really really a life saver . Great job guys, keep going...keep helping newbies like us.... we really need u
my TMOUS htc hd2 screen is no longer responsive to any sort of finger movement so i want to return it because my warranty still covers it, but in order to do that i need to put it back to stock ROM, and thats not happening because i cant get bootloader to start, i get the tricolor screen and it flashes gray then it stays on the tricolor screen, even though i copied the LEOIMG.nbh into the sd card, also did a complete format for the sd card before.
i cant start bootloader.exe from the phone because the screen doesnt respond to touching, all buttons work fine but thats not enough.
any ideas on how to get around this and get bootloader to start ? im out of options here ive looked it up for hours with no solution, someone else was having a similar problem and it was fixed when he did a complete format to the sd card instead of a quick one, i did that twice already.
Is there any reason you can't connect to a computer to flash? That's the only other way I know that would let you flash another ROM.
flashing a ROM isnt the problem, because i can get the stock rom on it but i need to also take HSPL out i need the radio to be the way it was when i got it and the only way that i know of to do that is by bootloader
If you flash a stock ROM even from the computer, that will usually include a radio, so you should be ok as far as the radio. HSPL should be able to be undone from the computer as well using HSPL2/HSPL3 and choosing the normal SPL from the list.
