Phone is freezing while starting

Hello,
I've just installed HardSPL succesfully, after that I wanted to install MightyRom 4.6, so I did. That went succesfully too according to my computer. Now when i want to switch the phone on, it keeps hanging with the T-Mobile picture on it. I've done a hard reset for several times and also a few soft resets. I also took my battery out for a few minutes, but when I switch it on, the same thing happens.
Please help me out of this !
Ps. sorry for my bad english !

for taking a little stress from your brain take an other rom - orig. rom from your provider.....
(go bootloder from pda; if your orig. rom only one *.exe-file you have to extract (winzip/winrar) it before flashing; connect usb (bootloader screen change from serial to usb); than flash)
but before you do this, how long you have to wait and look to your screen?
it can be sometimes a very long time until a windows-screen is coming.
if your pda gets hot than dont wait and flash asap new rom.
after 5 minutes waiting without any changes you have to flash an other rom.

I think I may have the same problem with my Diamond. I also installed MightyRom 4.6. Now, when I power up my phone, I get through the RGB stage to a white backdrop with instructions in blue to push volume button up for a reboot to manufacturers settings or push volume button down to reboot to manufacturers settings and wipe the movinand....after I select either one, when it gets to the HTC logo (HTC Diamond in white on a black background), it freezes. My pc won't recognise my phone when I plug it in...
Do I now have a really gorgeous paperweight or can I hold my Diamond to my ear again? Insight into my problem would be much appreciated.
By the way, XDA Dev rocks. Thanks to all who made this site possible.

Brick or no brick ?
Oh, I forgot to mention that my phone was a non-branded HTC running a Duttys rom. I did not want to get a DOPOD Diamond from China Mobile as they cost more and I dunno if they put Big Brother software in there.

do you have it in the boot loader before you plug it in to your pc?

Brickety brick, brick, brick...
My phone does not recognize my pc and vice versa. I tried plugging the phone in before booting it up. I tried while booting up. I tried at the white screen stage...nothing...help...
It also doesn't stay at the RGB screen for long...maybe 2 seconds...
Please break it to me gently if I have killed my HTC...I don't want to start drinking again...

...
My phone is a GSM Diamond. MightyRom 4.6 is for CDMA. If I combine the two(like I did) then am I screwed?
Can someone please give me some insight, please? I have been scouring the net for 3 days non stop now and my eyes are going to explode...
What is Jtag and can your average home user use it? Is it hardware or software...?
Cobbs: I assume when you say bootloader you mean something other than the RGB screen,,,cos as I stated in my first post, my phone does not stop on the RGB screen...

Help... *Sigh*

I've been hacking dash' for a long time now... my friend gave me his phone to hack...
Thought it was easy...
I mustv'e messed something up... now every time i boot my device up it gets stuck on the screen with three colors... red, green and blue one
i have try hard resseting it - two soft keys power button...
i have tried leaving the battery out... no good
any help would be greatly appreciated

the tri color screen is the bootloader. you need to use that to flash back to a stock rom, then try to flash again.

because I am stuck on this screen my phone will not connect to the computer and sync... what should I do?

Turn the damn thing off.
Press and hold in the camera button.
After 10 secs or so, plug in your USB cable.
You can now install an Official, (from your provider), ROM available at a Sticky near you.
Once an official ROM is back on, you can continue with your evil plans.
You have to use an OFFICIAL ROM first.

thanks for that help... i did as i was told, advance to a white screen where it said "checking sd contents" still not being able to connect to my computer via activesync so i can run the original factory rom

Remove your SD card prior to flashing. It's really a very simple process man, so if it's not working for you, you're making a rather minor mistake. Just follow the information in the stickies. You may even find a video on Youtube of someone flashing from the bootloader. Oh, and if you'd read the stickies, you'd know that you don't need to connect via activesync when in bootloader mode. The PC should automatically connect and install whatever driver it needs to communicate with your phone so you can flash.

Help Please!!!

I have flashed my at&t tilt 2 with core cell evo v1.2 & it was working fine for awhile but now my screen is just black i can hear the phone make sounds and all but can't see the screen at all i really need help fixing this as this is the only phone i have any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

i may be wrong but from what u have described... ur having a Sleep of Death (SOD) problem. have u tried takin out the battery or soft reseting the phone?
heres a link to a potential problem solver. Try to stay away from CHT lock and auto update apps!

yes i have done both and after the phone reboots i can hear sounds but i am still unable to see anything on the screen

Edit - I take that back, if it's still not working after a reboot

Have you tried entering the bootloader and re-flashing with the stock ROM?

If you can't see anything at all on the screen, no splash screens etc, even after soft-reset or entering the bootloader, then it sounds like you have a hardware problem (screen failure).

"PLEASE HELP"

It's a tricky situation. So if you hold down Volume Down (and keep it held down) and press the reset button, then you still don't have anything come up on the screen ?
How about if you try a hard reset, does anything come up then ? You can hear the phone making sounds, so it seems like it's just the screen ?
Putting the charger in doesn't help, does it ?
You could try flashing a stock ROM from SD card and seeing what happens.
You might well have to send it back under warranty with HardSPL still on. In that case, if it was me, then if they tried to say the warranty was void just because of HardSPL I would argue very strongly against that and ask them to prove it - e.g. how can HardSPL stop your screen working ? I don't know what country you're in, but in the UK I think our consumer protection laws would have something to say about that.

I've never flashed via SD, so I could be wrong on this. But I thought it was still possible. I see that the instructions (in the sticky on flashing ROMs) say to put it into the bootloader and "follow the on-screen instructions". I wonder if it's possible to just wait for a while and then press the appropriate key ? Though I don't know what the "appropriate key" is.
Perhaps someone who has flashed via SD can comment further, e.g. as to whether it's possible to do this without seeing the screen ?

man i really need to fix this maybe you can ask around for me since i'm new here & really don't know anybody on this board

I know it's frustrating, I'd be kinda worried if I had an apparently-non-working screen too. But please be patient, and wait for more people to see your posting. The folks in the US will be coming online around this sort of time, so there will be more people looking in and hopefully someone can help further.

Flash without seeing the screen
Enter boot loader even if you can not see the screen. You can flash your phone to stock then enter boot loader again and hard spl. I had a similar situation and was able to complete the process and warranty repair with AT&T no problems, or you can pay to have it fixed at an outside shop. I was quoted 150 and refused to spend that muck so I flashed the phone without seeing the screen...

I saw your post over on Sergio's thread but decided to answer you here.
You do have a blown screen, no doubt there. How that happened is not really relevant.
My best advise is to connect your phone to your PC and wait for the activesync connection to come up. Once that happens you know you have a good connection and can flash. Run the RUU (or exe) for your stock ROM, the on screen (PC Screen) prompts will let you know if it can't proceed. Once the stock ROM is back on it, follow the same procedure and put the stock SPL back. Then send it off to get the screen replaced.
Hope that helps
Russ

can somebody please help me i need to reflash my phone but i am unable to see anything on my screen when i plug it up to my computer activesync is not working so what can i do please i really need help with this

Flashing witout screen
Step 1
Enter boot loader mode (* Remove the back cover from the phone.
* Hold the Volume Down button.
* Use the stylus to press the reset hole.
* Or if the device was powered off, press the power button whilst holding down the Volume Down button.)
and attach to computer. (wait 30 to 60 seconds)
Step 2
Check device manager for HTC mobile sync under mobile devices.(Active sync will not work in boot loader mode)
Step 3
Flash using Rhodium CustomRUU on your PC. (use original ROM from At&T.
Step 4 repeat for Radio
Step 5 Use Stock_SPL_Restore_087.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550131 repeat the process with it.
This should work it did for me. Let me know if you run into problems.

[q] semi brick

Hello, I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to resolve a SEMI-BRICK. There is no way to enter recovery mode or fastboot.
Was installing a ROM when I got an error and never could turn on the phone. Only I get the screen with the mobile and pc with an exclamation mark in the middle.
Appreciate your help.
PS: sorry for my English
Javier

If you can't get to download mode you might be screwed. Can you get into download mode? If you can then you can just use odin or fastboot to push the factory rom to the phone and it will work again. Obviously you lose root but you can re-root afterwards. Good luck.

I find no way to enter download mode. in any way that I only try to turn the screen appears to indicate in the query.
There is no way to fix it?
thanks

Hey, in all the time on here I have never heard of a bricked Nexus.
Ok so just to be sure when the phone is off and you hold volume down and the power button it does nothing? Sorry just want to be sure this is the case...

probe all possible combinations and all leading me to the same, the screen with the exclamation mark. and on volume +, volume - and power and volume + and - and on

Ah no dude. That sounds bad. I might be wrong but you may need to go back to your provider and tell them it just switched off and wont work anymore.
Do you see the Google logo and the lock symbol when you turn it on or just this exclamation mark?
Obviously if you go back to your provider don't mention anything about roms or rooting as that voids your warranty but if they can't see the Google logo with the lock then they wont know you were rooting and romming it.
That would drive me crazy so I hope you get sorted soon.

The issue is that here in Argentina is not this phone. I bought online and sent me the U.S.. I have therefore not who wear it.

have you tried the usb jigs? i tried it on my nexus and it boots it into download mode

That might be worth a shot!

That I'll see if I can prove it today night. It is the only hope left for me.

Yeah, good luck man.

Well folks, with all the pain of the soul I confirm that I have is a full-BRICK. Last night at the JIG probe, and the only thing it does is turn on the phone and see the same screen BRICK. Since I can not think what else to do, only use it as a paperweight as they say

Any chance you try leaving battery out for a while, give it at least a good 10 minutes

Neither. I've left it up all night without battery and nothing.

Bad news Javii! So what are you going to do next?

Today I will try to recognize me either linux, so maybe you can do a fastboot to install the original rom. Because I said if you see the exclamation point is because it is a semi-brick

I used to get that screen with my Galaxy Tab when flashing the wrong ROM.
If the ODIN and original files are available for you to use, just use that and it should fix your phone.

Need help.. again

I installed Harmonia 3.0 and this time.. it just sends me to a black screen w/ back light.. I wait awhile and i get system process forcle close message and i cant touch anything. The capacitive buttons vibrate but i get nothing. Hold power and vol down and i get into another black screen but the Led light is on since im plugged in my computer.
