I was handed what looked like a brand new I-MATE JasJam, except I was told that it was crashing a lot and could not make phone calls.
After reading lots of different posts on this site I have determined that the Radio's firmware is corrupt. There is "NO GSM" on bootup and no IMEI being listed.
I have been trying the last few days to flash the radio with a new version of firmware but have yet to get past 0%. I have had success flashing the device with Black 3.5 but the radio is still not flashing.
I have simunlocked and SuperCID the phone with success and I have tred USB Monitoring when I attempted to flash the radio device and have seen "AUX_process-FAIL..".
Before I keep trying with alternative ways of programming the RADIO is there anything I can do to determine that the RADIO is physically installed and electronically responsive. My concern is that perhaps the radio's hardware is broken and no amount of flashing attempts will ever bring it back.
Currently
IPL - 1.01
SPL-1.40.Olipro (I can install 2.10 if required..)
CID=SuperCID (Level 0)
Can Boot to OS ? Yes
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi man,
welcome to club!we have same problem and haven't found the escape way yet.you can see it here( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=338413) and share your experiences.I hope we can find the solution.
How say Hamed, welcome to the club...But first look instructions on the wiki. For me and Hamed, there is no solution for now. Mean on the software way, to solve problem.
Hi
Used to happenb to me. I always flash bu sd card way. Just put the radio image on sd card in nbh format. Rename it to HERMIMG and go into bootloader. It will put the radio on. Alayas fails for me when i use the customruu
your radio bootloader is dead, you're basically screwed.
Thanks, thats all I wanted to know.
Appreciate your time.
Its not dead. Use the sd card method. My phone is back from the dead !

then quite clearly... your radio bootloader wasn't screwed.
Sorry I think you misunderstood. All im saying is that mine used to stop at 0% Every single time using windows to flash. I started using the sd card and it would freeze as well but kept trying and trying and eventually it would start to flash. Usually on sd card method it would freeze around 12% but then eventually go on and update success.. Try the sd card way and it may work. Remember I had the same problem , no gsm , no imei etc

Indie, can you please tell us which rom you try to flash via sd card? Are you use nbh tool v101 to extract shipped rom, only radio part on sd card, or you boot completely rom t-mobile wm 6 (which version???)? Please give to us details.

I would flash the htc official wm6 rom, or get any of the extracted radio roms from the wiki. Now i have the official tmobile wm6 rom uk rom somewhere on this site. I just put the radio or whole rom in nbh format onto sd card and rename it to HERMIMG. then go into bootloader and it will do the rest itself. The exe files from the official tmobile rom get extracted to your temp folder and creates the nbh format. Just copy it from there
Remember if it freezes , keep trying. I once had to try 10 times before it did my radio. i would wait 10 mins at a time for gsm. if it doesnt move by then its froze. reset and try again

I think that my radio bootloader is dead, because when I try in mtty rtask a and then rversion I get nothing in USB monitor. Is my radio bootloader dead, and is there now a soluiotn for recovering radio bootloader?
Well based on what others are saying in this thread; yes, you flash the radio or rom via SD Card instead of activesync, and you do so by going into bootloader manually...read the thread.
I tried that, but its the same. It stops on 0%. I saw that others that had this problem had a functional radio bootloader (0107 or 0108). Mine is corrupt!
Hey guys, this is my first post but have been doing research for a long time(weeks) to gain knowledge.. I followed the instructionson wiki for flashing to
Radio Rom 3.42.50 using micro sd and Rom 3.2.6 . I uploaded the bootloader to nueSPL-2.47.exe no problem. but after the radio Rom was loaded it is stuck on the screen.. Im not sure how to use the titan_exitbl.exe. at this point.. please help, thanks
oh by the way, I am unable to connect to ActiveSync. I will not recognize a device being connected.
Two things to try..... 1 pull the battery out for 10 or so seconds then try to start it again.... if that fails.... load a newly cooked version of 3.2.6
I'll give that a try when I get home from work. Thanks I hope the cooked ROM works. So I pretty much go through the step again of loading it on my micro sd and press power+camera+reset right.
yep.... I've personally found it better to load the ROM after the Radio... It sounds like you already have the radio squared away so it should just be a matter of loading a ROM.
Still having problem loading up ROM. did I use the wrong bootloader? when I get to the tri screen it reads TITA100 SPL-2.47noChem Titan SPL EVT CPLD-9 am I bricked?
Did you remove your micro SD card before you did power-camera-reset to flash your ROM? I assume you are trying to flash your ROM using the USB cable right? You may have a titan.nhb file on it, that the bootloader is trying to flash.

this is where I went... Is there a way I can flash ROM dcd 3.2.6 using micro SD? it seems like thats what I need to do next.
I'm in the same state. I just got my replacement xv6800 from Verizon. My old one was flashed long ago to SPL 2.40 and various DCD roms over the past 8 months.
I didn't remember the whole process I used back then. I used the wiki to flash the new one and got the process out of order. I did the SPL 2.40 first and then the radio, both using USB. Now I am stuck at the VZW logo.
I updated the wiki.
It sounds to me like you are doing ok.
I recently had to replace my phone and basically what I did was load the NueSPL on the SD card and ran it. Once I soft-reset, I confrimed that I had the correct bootloader and it appears you do.
Next I loaded the radio file onto my Microsd card and renamed it to TITAIMG.nbh. I then hit the Power, Camera, Reset to get into the bootloader and it should auto install the radio, which I belive it has for you. Once you reset, the phone will most likely show the VZW spach screen as the new radio is not compatible with the old VZW ROM that is still on the phone.
SO the next step, it to remove the radio file off the MicroSD card and load the ROM file onto the microSD card, again, this needs to be called TITAIMG.nbh. Place the card back into the phone and hit the Power-Camera-Reset button again and the rom should now load. Once it says its complete, reset your phone and you should be in business.

the correct order is
SPL 2.47
Radio ROM
OS ROM
Carrier Cab
Trouble is if you can't replace the TITAIMG.nbh file on your SD Card.
I thought the correct order was:
Radio 3.x Minimum
SPL 2.47
Radio ROM required by Custom OS
Custom OS ROM
Carrier Cab
If you have NueSPL working with a 2.x radio, perhaps the the information on no2chem's site is just referring to the ReLocker?
Anyway, I updated the Common Problems wiki with blancmik's info.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanProblems
Thanks blancmik and necromis.
I had to wait until I got home to pull out my 1GB microSD card and reader. I was able to flash the radio and a ROM.
I did it the following way and it is booted up to WinMobile 6.1.
SPL 2.47
Radio ROM
OS ROM
When I did all this 8 months ago I used USB. I like the microSD upgrading way much better.
Glad to hear that it worked out well for you. The first time I ever flashed was also via USB. After I understood the MicroSD method I've never looked back!

DCD releases his ROM on his site as a self extracting installer. In order to get to the actual ROM, I usually open the .exe with winRAR (winzip) will also work, and extract the RUU_signed.nbh file out, which is the ROM. That's what needs to go on your SD card renamed TITAIMG.nbh.
The flashing can now begin (without fear of not being able to return it to stock form)! And for those who need a way to return to stock form, HTC has come through!

Hi
I can't download this rom.
I click in the link and it redirect me to another page, and I keep looping.
Now I'm in Costa Rica and maybe I need to be in USA to download this file.
Could someone upload the file to megaupload or rapidshare or something similar.

Where is this official leaked ROM you speak of for the pure?
Only ROMs I see out is 3rd party cooked ROMs. Not anywhere close to the quality of official ROMs. And only ROMs that I've seen out that makes a huge difference in anything is the ones with Manila 2.5. Which are horrible in the sense that MMS doesn't work on them, because there is no way of opening it unless you do a registry hack and add a cab for it to open in windows messaging client.
finally! i've been looking forward to this
Thanks
Hey. Thank you very much
Hi
Hello How can I change the band to the following:
Network Type : GSM
Band Frequency: GSM (900+1800+UMTS(2100+900)
Here is a little FYI for anyone interested. I am not sure why but, loading this rom did not replace the HardSPL. Being curious, I had to find out how I could use the stock SPL in this rom to go back to being completely stock. I am not sure if what I did is correct but it worked for me.
I extracted the spl.nbh and ruu_signed.nbh from the HTC download. I tried just running the spl.nbh by renaming it to TOPAIMG.nbh and copying it to the root of the SD. Everytime it would read the file and try to replace the spl it would fail and go back to the load screen. So, I relocked the spl using the spl relocker 1.33 (? I think that was the version). I then applied the spl.nbh (renamed to TOPAIMG.nbh) and it replaced the SPL with a version 1.78. It then looked like it was stuck at 9%. This is apparently some sort of interim SPL used to load the ruu_signed.nbh. After trying to determine what was going on for a little while I decided to put the ruu_signed.nbh (again renamed to TOPAIMG.nbh) on the SD and see what happens. Well, it loaded the original SPL, Radio and ROM and my Pure was 100% stock again.
I am sure there must be an easier way. Perhaps if I had just relocked the SPL with 1.33 and then ran the update it would have been fine. I just wanted to post this information so people know that you can get it back to 100% stock using this download from HTC.
PURE dialer canvas
Great find! Any chance that someone could / has extract(ed) the phone canvas out of this rom to see if it addresses the delay issues associated with the topaz and leo roms?

So that confirms you have to relock the spl before it will replace the hardspl with the original spl. That is good to know.
relocker replaces the spl to stock spl version 1.33
flashing again flashes the spl to 1.83

Hi guys
I decided to get [ROM][WWE][9.Mar.2010]Leo lite 2.10/1.66 base (5.2.21895) 576 ram and got HSPL along with the 2.07 radios for use with 2.1
But I thought I could install the radios after flashing the rom, and now it wont boot up..
Is it bricked? Is there any way I can repair this?
I'm so worried right now
Take battery out, hold volume down whilst booting to enter bootloader. Connect to pc, install correct radio. You may need to drag the .nbh into the same folder as customruu. copy customruu.exe from rom you downloaded if you dont have it included with the radio you download. you need the .nbh and customruu in same folder.
Then just run it and everything will be super.

If I read this right he hasn't flashed the radio at all so has a generic ROM radio. Its not a critical problem by any means and his phone will be up and running in no time.

HD2 is extremely hard to brick but one you get it right, it gets as hard as a brick lol!
No seriously, as long as one can boot the HD2 in the "boot loader" mode (RGB color stripes) one can recover from any situation known to mankind

First, confirm that your spl is now 2.08.hspl (check in bootloader mode)
Next you need to flash the new radio file to your device. Read this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477. You need to either have the ruu_signed.nbh file in a folder with the CustomRUU.exe and then run the exe or else rename to LEOIMG.nbh and flash via the sd card.
tks a lot bro... you made my day... really apreciate it..
Hey guys, let's see if you can help me.
My phone is dead, probably hardware failure. I last ran MAGLDR on it, and it was starting to tweak out. Random reboots, not booting up, etc. I flashed it back to stock about six months ago and it was still rebooting and dying but the rom did boot. Since then, for whatever reason and without actual use of the phone, the hardware problem has become MUCH worse. I can no longer boot into WinMo but can 1 in 20 tries boot into the HSPL screen/bootloader.
I need to send it back into HTC before the 28th of October and I don't want them to see Cotulla HSPL on screen. I've never overclocked or so much as used the phone for a long period of time, and I'm extremely gentle to electronics, so I don't know what the problem is.
I've been trying to flash back via this method.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc89Gh0QpIY
I don't think the rom is right for my device, so I haven't used it. I own a TMOUS HD2 and the rom this guy has is a WWE rom. I don't know if this is safe to flash. Anyway, I went ahead and downloaded the latest TMOUS stock rom which unzips as an executable. I then ran the EXE, and it unzips the RUUXXXX.nbh file into C root--at least that's where I found it. I copied the file to root of the SD (FAT32) and renamed it LEOIMG.nbh. When I boot into the bootloader tri-color screen, it finds the image but only gives me an option for flashing the OS. In the youtube vid the guy flashes all sorts of things. When I flash the OS, it doesn't replace the HSPL. Does anyone have a LEOIMG that includes the SPL for a regular TMOUS? His RUU is 266 mb and mine is 5.
Any thoughts? I've scavenged the internet and I can't find a good nbh file that works.

thats wrong, you have a corrupt download or something, whats the filename before you extracted it? Go to t-mobile.com and download again. Instead of running the .exe and finding the file in c drive, you can just change the filename extension from .exe to .zip and it will open as a zip file.
I found an RUU that is 200 something MB. It has all that he had on his. It is also a TMOUS version. The problem I am having is the thing freezes after about a fifth of the installation completes, time and time again. I believe the image is good. I think the NAND on my HD2 is permanently messed up. When I access the tricolor screen now it tells me that the update failed and to please try again, and cotulla is still printed at the top. Any thoughts? Do you think HTC checks these? I sent in a Nexus One in and they sent me a new one back, no questions asked, even though the bootloader was unlocked.
I have to send this in very soon, since it expires the 28th of Oct.
all you can do is try all the tmous roms from the 't mobile test and stock roms'' thread, but not teh first three in eth list.
if all else fails you can try flashing a non tmous stock rom, which will brick teh phone, BUT will also brick bootloader, so they wont be able to see cotulla, which is the ionly thing they are interested in.
DISCLAIMER - flashign a non tmous stock rom WILL brick your tmous. The point being it will not boot at all, completely dead, so tey cant see the spl has been hacked.
Sounds like a plan.
That didn't work. The UK rom exe freezes at 1%. Returning to the bootloader I still see Cotulla's name. Ideas?
EDIT: After the third or fourth attempted flash it now says software update failed with an exclamation point and a triangle, and the only way to access the tricolor screen is to have a LEOIMG on an sd card and hit cancel. There it says cotulla. I'm going to try to brick it more with a .51 radio just to be safe.
Thanks for your help guys. The phone pretty much bricked itself. I couldn't flash the .51 radio because it stopped turning on after a while. I sent it into HTC and they repaired it, no questions asked. Now as long as it doesn't fail again... I may get an EU version because those seem to be a little bit more reliable...
Thanks again! Thread can be closed.
