imate kjam won't boot past splash

Hi,
First, I ran some tests on my kjam. The kjam came default with the kjam rom on it, naturally. I wanted to CID unlock this phone, so I downgraded the rom to button's "beer glass" splash screen rom. Then I was able to run aWizard successfully to CID unlock the phone. I then upgraded back to the original kjam rom. Both the downgrade and the upgrade went smoothly.
I then found out I wanted to customize my splash, so I downgraded again. I customized the main splash (not the HTC one) using aWizard. Worked like a charm. I also ran some extra itsme tools to read and write from rom in some locations I needed access to.
Everything was working great at that point. But the downgrade ROM didn't properly respond to some of the printed keys on the kjam keyboard, so I thought I should upgrade again. However, this time, I decided I want to keep my splash etc., so I tried to upgrade only my radio and OS rom, as backed up by aWizard previously from the original kjam ROM. I used aWizard to restore the selected areas of ROM, rather than the RUU tool.
I upgraded the radio ROM, didn't reboot the device to keep the radio and OS in sync, upgraded the OS ROM, just as that was happening, the phone received a phone call (or text message, do not know which), and hung. While the aWizard eventually completed the upgrade, the phone did not reboot or "un-hang" itself after aWizard displayed success (there was no error on the console window).
So I soft rebooted the phone. The splash screen came, but without a GSM version on it. I was like, "shoot!", something bad must have happened, lets just put the full kjam rom on this, and get it over with - never mind the custom splashes. So I went into bootloader and applied the kjam rom.
Now it displayed the GSM version as well on the splash screen, but again, it never left the splash screen. I was like, again, "shoot!", lets just go back to that old downgrade ROM with the funny keyboard, then we can figure this out again. So I went into the bootloader and applied the downgrade ROM.
Alas, the beer glass splash screen remained hung as well! And actually, since then, I've downloaded and installed ALL ROMs I've been able to find - ALL of them have hung.
My bootloader is still working fine and dandy...any idea why this might be happening? Was the problem in the phone call I received? In using aWizard without rebooting? In using aWizard at all? In trying to manually edit the machine ROM using itsme tools (mind you, those edits worked fine until I started updating the GSM/OS ROM)?
And oh, after hanging for a while on the splash screen, the phone screen starts flickering real bad (whilst still on the splash); in case that provides any help.

To clarify the bootloader situation a little more:
I've got FULL bootloader capability. I can mtty into it, I can write commands, I can install full new ROMs from the bootloader, etc. So this would seem to indicate my phone may not be a brick yet...its a brick that can display changeable wallpapers I even figured out how to draw progress bars and write text to the bootloader screen using MTTY commands. Fun, actually! Its a $700 etch-a-sketch pad

Hi Lionel,

good luck

Can any of you facing same problem post the reason(s) you believe to be responsible for the situation?
I think that in my case (yes, it happened to me too) was the fact that i flashed only OS chunk ending up with IPL/SPL 1.xxx and OS 2.xxx and i didn't use any RUU; instead i used an itsme program (podcread.exe)
cheers

Can't flash anything after installing PDAVIET 2.07.06.PV

I've been using Mun_rus's WM6 ROM for quite a while and seeing that PDAVIET's rom was built on a more recent WM6 ROM I decided to flash PDAVIET 2.07.06.PV.
Since then I cannot flash anything on my Trinity, the update utility starts and when the progress bar reaches around 84% half the screen on the Trinity goes funny. The progress bar on the PC reaches the 100% (while the screen on the Trinity goes blank slowly slowly) but upon restarting the device PDAVIET ROM loads up again intact as if I have just done a soft reset!
I've even tried flashing WM5 again but without any success.
Trying to flash Hard-SPL does not work either and I'm running out of ideas now :-( Anyone else has this problem please? I would love to try flashing a ROM with an original IPL SPL but cannot find one. My bootloader currently says IPL 1.5/SPL 9.99.CP.

Yes I am having a similar problem. It starts to flash then stops reboots and on my pc says image fiile corrupted. I have re downloaded and extracted the files but it happens everytime. However. My trinity when it reboots is stuck in the splash screen.

I had a similar problem, though not quite what you're describing. Try removing the Mini SD (storage card) before flashing.
Also, try entering bootloader fisrt before before flashing from PC.
Hope that helps.

i have the same problem...
i get 100% done and than it is still the old one..

Well, I have now sorted it. Go to this link read first post and download and use the unbrick.

I've run the splxploit a couple of times as well. It seems to finish the process succesfully but the problem persists :-( And mine is not stuck on splash screen, the device boots normally, it's just that whatever I flash does not work. Any more ideas please?

I tryed the all i think, read the all forum up and down, started in different ways, but no rom of SSL apply...
What is that!
I am stuck with this rom?

Any of the pro cookers can help with this please? I just need to understand what could be wrong, not necesseraly a solution

Hey many thanks Removing the miniSD solved my problem I flashed at least a 100 ROMS in my life and never bothered removing the memory card before ... but there you go

hi, i had the same problem. i flashed my trinity with original htc rom and after that when i tried to flash with any other rom it gave me success message after every try but in my phone there was still the same htc rom. i used that : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293632 AND IT WORKS. FROM THE MOMENT WHEN I USED THAT FILE I FLASHED MY TRINITY 2 TIMES WITH THE SAME ROMS WHICH DIDN`T WORKED PREVIOUS. you need to copy that file to your trinity and follow the instructions from the readme file. in my case i only opened it ,it started bootloader mode ,i disconected usb and connected it again and started ROMUpdateUtility with rom which i wanted.

interesting... so why does the miniSD card affect the flash?
kta- had you tried running sspl and then flashing during your failed attempts? (just curious)

HELP! - Cannot flash bootloader away from SPL-0.41.coke

I have a major issue here. Please bear with me.
I flash my phone to the official 6.1 rom a few months back. Now I recently decided to try a custom rom by NFSFAN. So first thing was to flash the bootloader by IMCokeMan version 0.41. After doing that I flashed the custom rom. Once it booted up my phone kept reboot itself every few seconds or so. It turns out now that it was a battery issue, but I was sure the battery was fine and thought it was simply an incompatibility issue with the rom.
So I then tried to flash the official 6.1 rom back on, but it froze at 44% and then threw a 262 error after a minute or so. I then learned that I needed to flash the IMCokeMan 0.40 unlocker/relocker to get the official rom back on. So I did. Then tried the official rom again, and lone behold, froze at 44% and then gives the 262 error.
Then I thought I'd try the NFSFAN's rom again. So I flashed that. Once it successfully finished and started to load it freezes at the Telus splash screen and "No Radio" appears in red on the screen.
So this is where I'm at. I've tried to flash nearly every bootloader I could find and no matter what I do the bootloader always shows "SPL-0.41.coke". I can't flash any official rom including Telus, Bell or Sprint as they each freeze at different spots but consistently at the same spot individually (Telus at 44%, Bell at 30-some%, Sprint at 29%). I can flash custom roms as well as the beta wm6.5 rom but those don't fully load and give the "No Radio" error.
The ONLY rom I can successfully flash is an old 6.0 rom that someone dumped from a telus vogue. But in this rom under "Device Information" the rom is 1.11.661.1 and the radio version field is blank! And I cannot make data connections, as in I cannot connect to the internet, etc.
So my question to anyone that may know is: why am I having these issues with the radio version? How can I get rid of the SPL-0.41.coke bootloader?
And what can I do at this point? Any help from anyone is a thousand times over appreciated!

*********** bump-a-doo? *************

eeps! similar issue! did I brick it???
My symptoms are different, but the way I got there is pretty much the same:
I wanted to try NFSFAN's 1.28 Bell rom, so I unlocked with IMCokeMan's 2.31 unlocker (2.31 instead of 0.41 because I had previously upgraded to UTStarcom's Bell WM6.1 rom with the 3.42.50 radio when it came out). The unlock process went smoothly, and I had no problem flashing NFSFAN's 1.28 rom after that either.
NSFAN's RUU said I was successful, and my Vogue automatically restarted but got hung up on the "Bell" splash screen, I tried to let it work itself out for over 15 minutes before I tried a reset, but it still had the same problem. Tried a hard reset: same problem. I let it sit connected to the charger for a half week now and it still is hung at the "Bell" splash screen.
I'd try to flash the stock rom again, but I can't get the RUU to work without an activesync connection (right?).
Did I brick it? Any advice would be appreciated.
Here's everything my version-screen says if it helps at all:
M 03
B 01
P DCAAXOM-4350H
R 3.42.50
D 3NFS (is that NFSFAN's rom or an error?)

I've been reading through the ImCoKeMaN's unlocker sticky (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370), and I noticed there is a "VERY IMPORTANT / Warning" referring to the 0.40 rom you used. Here's what it says:
If your carrier did not release a rom and you flash an exe of another carrier with the 0.40 unlocker you won't be able to flash ANY rom until unlocking again (this requires booting into WM)

Thats the problem im having theres no way I know to get passed that screen that says no radio. So you can't even get into WM. So since it cant load into WM you can't run the unlocker. Most custom roms flash fine but its the radio thats missing it wont go past that.

You do NOT need to be in WM to unlock, WM has nothing to do with it
Start phone in bootloader mode (power+camera+stylus in reset hole and hold this until the 3 color screen comes up) it will say serial at the bottom
Plug in the USB cable to your PC and it will change to say USB
Start the 2.31 Unlocker RUU.EXE (RomUpdateUtility.exe) file, follow the steps
then run your custom ROM when after it restarts do does it thing and reboots again by going back into bootloader mode and doubleclicking the RUU.exe file in the custom ROM folder you want to use
Once it runs through the setup after flashing and then the autorun and restarts - hard reset the phone (red+green+stylus in hole) until a gray screen comes up
Follow directions and then setup and autorun and reboot
Make sure you have a carrier cab and/or mms fix either on your PC to copy over to your phone or on your SD Card ahead of time and you should be set to go

I answered his question on his thread. You forgot one thing though Doug. He doesn't have a radio. He'll need to flash back to stock before he flashes a custom. Doesn't this get frustrating???

Fixed: Verizon Vogue Stuck at vzw splash screen

This is the first time I've messed with this phone I've flashed many different models in the passed but this is the only one that is giving me issues and the worst part is that its not mine so any hell i will greatly appreciate it.
Here is what i did read what ever i can to get more accustomed to this phone. and searched everywhere to help me figure out what i can do.
So i flashed the unlocker. Coke 2.31
after i did that i flashed nfsfan's 1.5 rom using usb cable.
no i cant get into the operating system at all it hangs at the vzw splash screen.
Is there a way to get this phone back to normal? i cannot connect thru activesync and when i tried to reflash using sd card it shows the loading screen for a split secon then goes back to the bootloader.
Please help its my bros phone i need it up and running asap.
Thank you
This post helped quite a bit

Just thought that I would post what happened to my phone and the steps that eventually recovered it in case it helps somebody else:
My phone was stuck with "No Radio" on the boot loader screen and the SPL as "SPL-2.31.CoKe", but none of the 3.x ROMs would flash properly that I tried. So here are the steps that eventually recovered it (mostly...):
1.) I installed the ROM above from the tri-color screen (power+camera+reset). I still had no radio, but it was letting me past this and booting up to WM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=357762
2.) I then re-flashed the 2.31.CoKe boot loader (not sure if this step is necessary but listing what worked...)
3.) I tried to install RUU_Vogue_VZW_WWE_3.14.605.1_Radio_3.37.78_Ship.exe but it failed at 10% restarting to RUUNBH screen and the installer gave me Error [290]: Invalid Command
4.) I then tried to install the latest sprint ROM straight from the HTC site:_Touch by HTC (Sprint)_RUU_PPST_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_3.03.651.4_2_Radio_3.42.30_AM_NV_2.04_Ship this looked like it was going to fail at the same part the Verizon rom did as it rebooted at 10% to RUUNBH screen, but the Sprint installer did something (I heard the computer lose and gain connection multiple times) and eventually it went right back and continued on from 11% and finished successfully.
5.) Rebooted and I had a radio now! Rather then risking trying to install the Verizon ROM again I went straight to the custom ROM I had originally started out with: NFSFAN 6.5 V6 which is working fine for me, except the GPS which is what started out my adventure of the last 3 days...
Just a note: for all flashes except the final one I simply waited till it was at the "Tap the screen..." stage till flashing. I never let any ROM but the final one run it's customization.

The above method works on a Vogue that is stuck on the bootloader screen with no radio.
Or if you get a rom to install and it stops at a windows screen that says no radio.
the only difference i tried was i didn't use the HTC Official Sprint rom, as i could not find it.
I used this rom.
RUU_Vogue_4350_ALLTEL_WWE_3.10.671.1_RS3.42.30_NV2.02_PRL30031_SHIP.exe
I let all customizations run on the last rom update.

Apparently I have severly bricked my S620.

I was attempting to change to ookba's 3VO ROM but the operation failed and the ROM did not install. I did get the recovery instructions screen and followed them but the phone did not reset to the previous ROM (NRGZ28's EnergyROM 52409). The phone hangs on the Windows Mobile screen. I have done the following -
1) Followed ookba's recovery instructions and gotten the tri-band screen. However whenever I try to flash back to the T-Mobile ROM (any version) I get Error 260.
2) Followed stylez hard reset instructions and gotten the reset screen but the phone hangs on the Windows Mobile boot screen. A hard reset does not occur.
3) Followed NRGZ28's "In Case Things Go Wrong" instructions and gotten the tri-band screen, however when I try to flash the EnergyROM (or any other non T-Mobile ROM) I get corrupted image errors.
4) I have used jockeyw2001's bootloader but get Error 260
Also, the power button does not turn the phone off. I have to remove the battery to get it to shut down. I think I have tried all the recovery steps I know if. If anyone has a suggestion or solution I would be most appreciative. Thanks.

Maybe its safe to assume you have a hardware issue? Since the initial flash and following consecutive flashes failed, maybe its a bad USB cable? I would try reflashing the shipped T-Mobile ROM from a different PC altogether using a different USB cable. Since your phone gets to the Bootloader (multicolor) screen means it's not bricked. Try different PC and cable hardware...

Will do. I did try another hard reset and the boot screen has sat for over 20 minutes without getting past it.

Or try flashin stock ROM via SD

you must flash to official rom to make any progress at this point. at least thats what i had to do when my computer auto-restarted in the middle of one of my flashes.

Fixed, thanks for the help.

Muga, It's also happening to me. I had previous flashes with different roms Kavana's, rose, energy (6.1 release) and everything went well with no problems at all. But a few days ago, I tried to flash my excalibur with the latest release by NRGZ28 (energy rom 6.5) and what I think what happened was that I didn't run the unlock file aplications (since I didn't have to do it in the other flashes, because I already had unlock the phone with the first upgrade) that's the only explanation I can get. At the end, I came up with the frozen screen and I've tried the bootloader steps, original rom installation, hard reset with no succes at all. What I get is the same error you have.
