I figured this out by accident..
I upgraded to windows mobile 2003 SE 2.06 but after I found out that half of the programs (MMS composer, cammera, etc..) dont work, due to incompatibility (error message says they are incompatible) I wanted to downgrade.
I ran the same ROM instalation (2003 SE 2.06) and waited for it to erase my ROM, then I took the phone out of cradle. I was dead at that point. I removed main battery, put it back in. Reboot the phone in bootloader mode (hold down D pad in centre position, then power button and soft reset - all at the same time). Then I put the phone back into the cradle and ran the ROM instalation of my choice. No more problems.
Well, I think using SD card method may be saver.
However, I forgot how to do this.
Cheers,

I am not sure but it seams you have the same issue like the guy here

Are you guys sure that the ROM that you have downloaded "good"
Hello everyone, I am really new to this forum having received the Dash 2 days ago. Looking to get it up to speed I flashed the 6.5 Energy Rom according to instructions. I think that was a very bad move, because now the cellphone is stuck on the Loading Energy Rom screen. I have searched the forum for answer and have already tried the following:
1- Entering bootloader and flashing original ROM. No luck because EVERY rom I have gotten, be it from here and T-Mobile, it says invalid vendor ID.
2-Tried to perform a hard reset. Did not work.
3-Flash the original ROM through the memory card. No avail.
The phone cannot connect to active sync, so I can't install any cooked ROMS. I think the solution is installing the original ROM by the bootloader, but I cant seem to find a compatible one. My cell information is the following:
Bootloader screen info: ONBL 1.22.0000 SPL 1.22.0000 IU
EXCA 100 S/N SZ713FE05873.
Is there any way with that information someone can tell me which ROM to use? Or any other tip/hint/suggestion? Any help will be greatly appreciated!
I have the same Bootloader screen info: ONBL 1.22.0000 SPL 1.22.0000 IU value and i was able to restore my phone to working status with the following ROM

That's odd, I was able to restore my Excalibur/Dash after flashing the corrupted EnergyRom.
Hope you will find a way to resolve your problem.

But how did you do it? Flashing it through USB or through the memory card? The weird thing is that when I run the EXE the cellphone that appears in the picture of the program is an SDA. But well I will try it again and thank you for the help!
I used bootloader method and connected my phone through USB for flashing. Remember to remove your memory card when flashing.
well, I've been in your situation for almost 3 days now, and still no solution for it, maybe it's time to put it in the box and purchase a new one , all thanks to the broken EnergyROM ...
Ok guys. Don't give up. Believe it or not, a Dash is NOT easy to brick like some other devices. the steps are fairly clear but let me refresh:
- Go into bootloader by holding the camera button and powering on the phone
- Connect the USB cable, you will hear the ba-bing USB connect sound on your PC (if u don't thats why you're having issues flashing)
- Download and unpack a "factory sealed" signed ROM. I use this one: http://rapidshare.com/files/7886560...S_1.33.422.1_4.1.13.51_03.07.90_Ship.exe.html
- With USB connected and the phone in the multicolor bootloader, run RomUpdateUtility.exe, check the boxes, it next, bla bla bla.
- It will look for your device for 20 seconds. then hit "update" and next.
- It should then start flashing the Excalibur Brightpoint Factory ROM back onto your phone
- If you can't get this far or it fails, try a different PC or Flash from the SDcard
** NOTE: If flashing from USB, REMOVE the SD CARD! This is the biggest mistake of most people trying to flash from USB.
Good luck.

Thanks ookba for cheering us up. I'm having the same problem like many, many people in this forum hopeless seeing our dash not responding to every solution proposed in this forum and the only thing that we have right now is keep trying to flash and see if it works. I will try again in different PC and see what happens. I'll let all of you know if I finally resurrect my s621.
Thanks everyone for all the help! It's hard to find people that are so helpful on internet forums. I'm still in the same situation as gmaniac and alexalexoe but hopefully we can find something that will fix our problems

This problem is ridiculously weird to why some members are able to restore their phone to original factory condition, and others are not able. Therefore, I have search from trustworthy sites and from friends for difference made ROM. Hopefully, one of these ROMs with help out anyone...........

Thanks 105507 but no success at all, I even found 2 more factory roms in the web and also they don't work. I own an unbranded international version s621 manufactured by Brightstar corporation (I tried to flash Brightstar's stock rom but it didn't work) and I noticed this because in the warranty docs it says brigthstar corporation and originally the phone came with WM5.
not that this will help. but this is one of the reasons why people should be really installing the hardspl so if you have a bad flash, you dont have to install a stock rom. any rom whether be it cooked or not will work. but this hardspl must be done prior to installing ANY rom. the hard spl is done by jockyw2001. send him a pm to see if theres anyway to get that on the phone, even in its current state.
edit: here's the link to the hardspl: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329605

My phone is the same your phone but ONBL 1.33.0000 and SPL 1.33.0000
I'm trying to find the original rom of this line but not found. Please help me!
Have you done a reset? My friend fixed his by trying reset a few times. He reset it, walked away...., it took long time to see whether it booted over; if not, do it again...
By the way, he leave the sim card in; and, you need to remove your micro sd card.
On an official site it is possible download ROM for your phone. It is flashing from bootloder mode. It some times helped me, while I have not flashed hard SPL.

I downloaded Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3_185HSPL.zip and unzipped but i cant perform hard spl using this.. it says error[246] device not responding.. it is not allowing me to perform both the automatic and manual hspl.. even i hard reset my mobile before performing HSPL.. I am in UK using Tmobile Touch Pro2 ROM version 1.86.401.0 (67102)WWE; Radio Version 4.49.25.17.. Please anyone help me to perform HSPL and install the Cooked rom...
Edit/Delete Message
Is your phone service on? It can't perform HSPL if it isn't on.
You might want to check that your phone is synced to Windows on your computer.
Vista needs Windows Mobile Device Center installed to sync I believe.
Had lots of issues doing the same thing to my Tilt2.
Here is what I did. I deleted any partnership in Activesync (probably did nothing but did not hurt)
downloaded enablerapinew.cab and installed it on memory card
did a hard Reset (actually 2 but hey who knows)
Moved enablerapinew to phone, removed SD card and ran enablerapinew.cab let phone sync with whatever name it wanted.
Once synced I ran the installer in automatic and it worked.
I spent 4 days trying everything so there is hope.
Thank u INRBigness i removed my Memory card and it works... Thank u very much
flashing touch pro 2
i have tried every trick in the book to get the hard spl on my touch pro2 from sprint. i am ready to give up and just suffer with the stock rom. please help!
As the OP's device is in this shape in his other thread here it's no wonder the HardSPL is not working.
Hey Folks...
I was trying to upgrade my Tytan to WM 6.5. I downloaded the nbh file and also the hard-spl-mg tool to upgrade my SPL.
Everything was going fine but then when I executed the spl upgrade tool it made a hard reset of the phone (expected) ...the issue was that I had on my memory card the 6.5 image file and after a button push the phone started to upgrade the OS without upgrading the SPL.....
As you can expect now the WM 6.5 doest finish the start and I am stuck...
Can anybody help me... I can’t find the original ROM (I live in Venezuela)...Is there a way to solve the issue without restoring it?
Thanks in advance
Still kinda new at this, but I locked mine up too.
This thread saved my butt.. see if if will work for you:
Gonna have to copy and paste as I am still a noob and can't post links
