Boot Issue: "No Radio" - Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development

I have 2 HTC Touch phones with Sprint.. One works perfectly, the other does not boot up.. Now, this phone is under warranty and HTC said they would fix it, but wheres the fun in that.. Im a heavy modder of Moto phones and id like to learn to fix these smart phones..
Now, Here is what a Normal Touch says when booted
M 03
B 01
P ACAAAAM-4070
R 2.13.00
D 1.12
This is what the other phone shows
M 03
B 01
P No Radio
I figured no big deal, Flash a radio and were good.. I download the stock sprint pack and it flashed fine but I guess there isnt a radio in the package.. so I decided to download just the radio only and it starts up DUU and switches the phone from the rainbow screen to a grey screen with the percentage complete bar at the top and it never moves.. Stays at 0%..
*Note: Dead phone sticks on loading screen that displays the info. Never makes it past the HTC Logo.. Cannot fully boot phone but it can be reset with the R/G/P Buttons or put in Flash mode with R/G/C/P Buttons and thats it..
With it doing this, Im leaning towards this being a hardware issue that I cannot repair.. Anyone want to back me up on that.. OR anyone have any ideas?

The stock Sprint ROM DOES have a radio in it.
Yep - HW bad...

Just a curiosity question: did u unlock your phone first?
If not, head over to ppcgeeks.com.
You can verify by bringing the boot screen
Provided you've done the above, u may try to flash your ROM for an SD card.
How? Format your SD card as FAT32 and place in its root your ROM but renamed as VOGUIMG.nbh then reflash your ROM by launching the Boot Screen (3-colors screen)
HTH, my 2 cents

xda v2 to 1.30.707.8 without screen?

I need to bring my device in for repair at the shop but need to go back to wm5 but ic an't see anything on the screen, is it possible to flash without having the screen work? its all white. im currently on wm6
I don't mind if its in the initial setup as long as its got wm5 on it from three au.
Sit on your device and meditate. Count to 10, if you are tranquil then go here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299462
If not.. then just throw your device away or look for "legolas..something".. he might buy your device. It seems that you've just bricked your device...
Hey, Was the all white caused by the WM6 upgrade. If you reboot do you even the the boot splash screens???
No, i didn't brick the device, it was working fine and then one day it goes all white screen.
It used to fade away to white screen during use.
It still runs, and i can use the phone, it just doesn't show anything but white on the screen.
try using mtty and aee if you have bad blocks and try flashing a non tool chained rom and see if that helps!
I have successfully flashed it back to the default rom with no screen.

I give in

I have searched the internet high and low - found many threads in many forums about the O2 XDA IIs being stuck on boot screen and wont hard reset and NO, I mean NOT a single solution posted anywhere despite the numbers of people with exactly the same problem as me.
It will enter boot loader mode and will flash with WM5 or 6 but neither have working camera or sound.
I have flashed it with Ship versions of O2 and even T-Mobile roms but both freeze at the boot screen and wont do anything else, pressing the usual buttons to get it to hard reset don't work.
So unless anyone can help me either restore the factory rom and solve the frozen boot screen or fix the sound / camera I am going to smash it to little pieces and throw it in the bin.

Don't do that, tell me the cost and post it to me. I can use the spare parts.
Seriously, what have you tried so far? (I missed the earlier posts).
Are you getting stuck at the four colour boot screen, or at the WM splash screen?
Thanks for the reply Jdc - lol - for a second I thought you were serious about the parts.
I have tried sooo much with this thing I cant remember what I haven't tried now. But to recap when I first got the Xda IIs it was locked to O2 and stuck on the boot screen with the O2 logo and the red writing in bottom left corner showing rom version. Nothing seems to shift from this state, no reset hard or soft makes any difference - take out the battery and when put back in and powered up sticks at the boot screen.
However - I can get it into bootloader mode and merrily flash WM5 or 6 which appear to work perfectly but there is no sound whatsoever and the camera says it fails to initialize the hardware please reset.
I then reflashed it with an O2 stock Ship rom - presumably WM2003 and it is exactly as it was at the start - stuck on the boot screen showing the O2 logo and rom versions.
I even tried a T-Mobile ship rom of the same version and it stuck on the T mobile boot screen.
Arrrgh!!!! I am at my wits end with it - maybe it is faulty somehow and this is not a software fault - I wish there was some diagnostic I could run on it and find out.
I currently have WM6.11 running well but as I said with no sound or camera.
Hope you can suggest something I may have overlooked or done wrong - I am new to this and it is very possible I have missed something.

Well, I am, kind of. I have an XDA IIs as well that needs some replacement parts, so if you are going to smash the thing, I'll pay the post to send it my way.
Anyway...

Hrm...
When it is stuck the boot screen, what does the R, G and D lines show? I'm wondering if the radio ROM might be buggered up. However, you do say that it's working... mostly...

No sound... As in playing a sound file with WMP doesn't even produce anything?
Can you use it as a phone normally?
Have you opened it up to see if the camera and speaker(s) are loose?
One other thing to try, if you don't mind doing another hard reset:
1. Download mtty v1.42
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete) kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001 (If you only see COM 1 and COM 2, try unplugging the USB and replugging it)
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
The wierdest thing happened.
Have to say that none of the suggestions or ideas (though welcome) helped. I reflashed the WM6.1 after flashing latest radio rom. Still no sound and camera.
Last night I had kept the battery out for a few hours and then on replacing it had to do reset - hey presto after all this time the sound worked and so does the camera.???? I have absolutely no idea what I did to fix it - almost as if it needed resetting a few times - cant think what else I have done.
Anyway I am happy bunny now - it all seems to be working perfectly.
Excellent! Glad that it's working for you now, hopefully it stays working as well.
If it doesn't, don't bin it, PM me and we can talk.
Lol - sorry Jdc but i wont be parting with it now - it all works perfectly even the phone is superb now which just goes to show that even when it looks like a hardware fault it is often software - a typical PC in other words.
Cheers

I see you forget the HARDSPL , This is needed for flashing to an another ROM, you have a ROD100 so you need a hardspl for gsm, install that first and then flash it with a rom ; link to how to flash your phone : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 let me know if it worked.
how can i HARDSPL if my phone is freeze and cant sync??? where can i start? im very noob to flashing
i always get update error (error 626)
pla help me,im so sad....i have no mobile,and its only 1 month with me,i cannot return it because i bought it in norway and now im in asia now...pls help me huhuhuhuh!!!!
Hi
You can still flash the phone without sync.
Make sure you have a fully charged phone then
Try this -
Power off the phone.
Hold the Volume Down key, while still pressing the volume down key press the power on key.
This should bring the 4 color screen (red,green,blue,white) with the info you gave in your previous post. Its called the Bootloader Mode.
Now plug the phone into your pc - the pc will install some USB drivers.
The word USB should appear in the white part of the screen on the phone
Then flash HardSPL, wait for reboot.
After flashing HardSPL - go back to bootloader mode and flash your ROM
Good Luck!
I ALWAYS GET ERROR [626]: update error
I did a google and found this on PPCGEEKS
Verified rawdikrik's fix in post 370. Memory Card needs to be REMOVED for the unlocker to work. This should fix the 262 connection error
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/cdma-tp-d...l-brought-you-cdma-raphael-elite-team-75.html
Try to flash without your SD card
sir im hardspl it w/o sim card and sd card and still get the same error....thanks!
I believe HardSPL will try to connect to the net. Please reinsert the SIM
Hey - if all else fails, you should flash a STOCK ROM (from HTC)
like this one RUU_Rhodium_S2_hTC_Asia_WWE_2.07.707.1_Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.91_Signed_Ship.exe
here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows mobile&model=Rhodium
i just want to throw it in the garbage can,but i have no money to spend for another mobile

[Q] 4gEvo Bootloop

ok i have a box full of evos left over, my 3d i just broke the screen so i was gonna use a extra but there stuck in bootloops theis one has
hboot 2.16.0001
supersonic evt2-3 shis-on
radio 2.15.00.05.02
mar 08 2011
its stuck in loop[ and i cant get to recovery, i can go to the bootloader but nothing past that either way... is there a update.zip i can use or something??? its not rooted and dont remember what this one was in the box for but i do know a rom was tryed to be installed with s-on
Doesn't sound very good.
If it doesn't bootloop inside the bootloader, the best you can do is to download and put this file on the root of your SD card, then try to install it through the bootloader to see if it fixes the problem. If not, there is not very much you can do to solve a bootloop with the phone S-ON.

thanks i will try and keep u updated, also if u can unlock with htc by saying its a 3d instead of 4g i might have tryed that i cant really remember... been a while since i used the 4g

You can use htcdev.com to unlock the bootloader but you need hboot 2.18 and you have to select all other supported models on the htcdev tool as your device
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
ok then i didnt do the htc unlock, well i tried the img u said and when it started the update it failed the radio, the first one, but finish the rest fine but said update failed.... i think maybe batterys low so im charging it now to try again, but i have a few bricked evos if anyone wants to see if they can unbrick em'
well i did the update about six times and differnt everytime, but the last time i had no errors an all complete but when it turns off to reboot it never comes on..... once i pull the battery and reinstall the battery if i turn the phone one it just bootloops still. anytime in a menu it says reboot divice and i do hit the button the divice never comes back on??? ivew tryed a few batterys, could this still be the problem?
well i got two bricked evo now if anyone wants them i can send the motherboard out

then 10 min l8r
it reset itself no mem card in, then bootloop once again. again touch still ok, i put mem card back in! then reset, and again all good! booted fine, everything sworked etc.
again 10 min l8r
same thing, boot loop--- but this time when go into hboot it says the below details
bravo pvt1 ship s-on
hboot-0.93.0001
touch panel-fail
radiio-5.11.05.27
aug 10 2010 17 52
no matter what i do now cant get out of this boot loop, can access hboot, but when try to goto recovery it resets a htc logo creen appears with a strange green hue, then back into hboot,
im at a loss
plz plz plz help, i am quite tech savvy, and good with a solderer, etc , used to deal with iphone, just never htc's
thanx in advance lood forward to your replays
scot
If touch panel broke you aint gonna do anything by yourself, unless you're working in HTC service.
it just went
well thats just it---- it was working perfectly , even the first twice it rebooted into the loop, the touch panel, in hboot said ok, it wasnt until the 3rd n final time, that when booting into hboot it said touch panel-fail, follow my first post to get n idea of the order and time frame these set of events occureedm it was strange , as the first twice i was able to remedie it,i presume it wasnt hardware failure, but software, but now im in two minds i have no clue, hence why im here, how can i tell if my touch is deffo upit?
can image failure of some sort cause this?the front led neither works...whiloe in the loop scenario.
t
so thats that then u rekon....!! can the touch just die on me like that from working one seconf to another not? c
ps--- i have replaced touch screen n lcd on iphones, is it as easy as that? if needed!
any info i miss from any post please ask , i really am dissappointed to say the leaset! ande really really would like to find a solution to this problem.....
thank you kindly for your time, and patience e
PSS CAN THE EARTH ON THE CHARGE PORT CAUSE THE TOUCH TO NOT WORK????? I KNOW IT CAN AFFECT IT! CAN IT CAUSE IT TOO FAIL?
back on
come to my phone this moring put original mem stik bak in , my sim, then it hey presto , booted no probz, then my touch also works again now, bloody wierd
