Is my i780 TOTALLY dead? - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

After applying a 6.5 ROM and trying to revert back (with SPB Backup file) to 6.1 the phone went dead
I mean totally black with no lights - nothing, cannot be turned on.
I recharged the battery, tried all sync cables ... but without success
Is it garbage time? or...can be saved somehow?

You can't revert back to wm6.1 using a backup. You need to flash a wm6.1 rom.

I cannot turn the device on, therefore cannot flash it

Oh. Maybe there's an emergency mode for your device. Is it an i780? I' ve never heard about u780 so i think you pressed the wrong button.

oh...thanks, I edited the title
Emergnecy mode for Hard reset, etc? This is not relevant since no power is even shown on the device
when I press the "power" button the led doesn't light

Hardreset-->Turn on the phone keeping pressed green and red button (it should work)
If hardreset doesn't work reflash but instead of normally turning the phone on, turn on the phone keeping pressed enter and fn (black and white) buttons

sorry m8....i had a similar issue. my i780 went dead...and i had to turn it back to the service center. they told my mother board had fried....and i had to wait a week for a replacement. the support guys wont know you've flashed a new rom...just stay quiet and u'll get another mobo.
what is it that you last did? here are the possible things which triggered this for ME -
1. i'd left my i780 in the sun for 4-5 hrs (in my car dash)...and it was burning hot....so this might have fried something....but it worked fine till that evening before it bricked
2. the same day (after i'd left it in the car)....by evening, i turned my wifi on and left it that way for 4 hrs or so....so over abuse of wifi might have bricked mine?
3. i'd flashed wm6.5, then heroes 6.1 rom.....so was it the flashing around?
4. maybe just samsung has some hw issues with the i780...
bad luck dude!

I don;t think the MB fried...I did #3
I just cant believe that it totaly bricked it, I mean I would have assumed that I can evie it from any stage - but this is like I am holdnig a brick and no more
Someone suggested to open up the back cover and clean the battery terminal - will try this as well
Service Center is not an option - I bought it in Thailand

i took it over to service....at service, the representative opens it up right in front of you and checks if its a minor fixable problem - then and there. So the service rep tried all possible stuff and couldnt manage to get it working. So, eventually they had to send it to higher level service, which took another 4-5 days...and finally they reported a dead mobo which was then replaced under standard warranty.
this sucks dude....i think you're having the same problem with your device that i had. You need to try your luck with service and hope that they give you a free replacement...i think they have worldwide warranty, you could tell them you lost your bill/blah...best bet if you ask me. Or paid service i'm guessing...
sorry m8....this is starting to worry me on the quality of samsung's hw....hmm (never had a single problem like this on any of my htc devices)

indeterministical crashes

Hello,
I have a strange problem with my HTC Artemis (O2 XDA branded, bought in Germany, no lock)
It behaves unstable and indeterministic.
Unstable means that it crashes/stucks or turns off.
Indeterministic means that it happens when i plugg it to charger, when i'm syncing, when a phone rings, when using applications/tomtom or just i arrive to work and i find the device off.
When it crashes or i find it off, the biggest problem is to boot the device. It takes me typically 10mins, when i'm always trying to press the power button, push the reset button or unplugg the battery for a while in random order until i bring it to work.
After first crach, the device also often crashes or stucks again during the boot process.
Once, the device was so dead, that it took me two days to bring it into bootloader mode and then i could at least flash the ROM.
All these was happening with ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.01 WWE - LITE NO CUBE.
Yesterday, i switched to ARTEMIS TOUCH 4.02 WWE - LITE NO CUBE (burned FW twice) without installing any other applications and the problems are still here
My personal feeling is that it is getting every week worser.
When i bought the device (eBay), there was original FW with Win Mobile 5 on it, i immediately flashed to ARTEMIS TOUCH 3.01(?) WWE - FULL WITH CUBE, i can only remember that that time I had a problem with gsm radio - from time to time i found it stucked/off - to bring it to work i had to reset the device. So i flashed to 4.01 and this issue was away, but approx 2months ago, the above described behaviour has started and nowdays i'm fighting with it 2-3x a day.
so, can anybody help?

Similar here
I have a similar problem, what's really strange to me is, that as far as i can recall it started happening 2 months ago or so also!! weird huh...
my device simply reboots from time to time! even while i'm making a call.
the weird thing about these reboots is that when it comes back to live i do not have to enter my pin to enable the phone! everytime i perform a manual reboot (by software, using the pin or remove battery) i have to insert my pin to able to make a call...
i have upgraded from 3.01 full touch to 4.02 full touch about the time it started, i have now 4.02 vanilla touch but problem still occurs from time to time.
any ideas?
Im another one to join this boat!
Bought an MDA C 3, two days ago, bought of someone from gumtree.com.
Worked fine for the first hour, and then locked up - nothing on the screen, no LED. Only way to get it going was to remove battery and then press power button.
I upgraded the ROM from the original t-mob UK WM5 to mechles fine release: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371182
The lock-ups / crashes have now become rarer, on average every 4 hours (before was every 1 hour).
There is no pattern to them either, although I have saw the screen trun all corrupted just before it happens. The last one was caused when I pressed the 'start' button.
I'm on a T-Mob contract, and lost my Kaiser, got ripped of when I tryed to replace it by a tosser on here for $375 Thief on the loose thread, and was hoping my luck had changed when I bought this one!!
It is T-mob branded and I wonder if there isn't a fix on here, would T-Mob repair it under warranty??
same "issue" with no entering of PIN after reboot. But not always

I have been using this rom for a while and sometimes, without any visual warning the phone freezes up. This is particularly ennoying because there is no way to check wether it is working or not. Every other function or software keeps working ! The phone is just not receiving any calls or sms. So you can miss an entire day of calls and sms without knowing... Only when trying to call somebody the dialer says 'Dialing...' and nothing happens. No connection.
A soft reset is needed to get the phone working again.
"
btw, now i'm again trying to turn the device on, it's again stuck. grrr
Hello,
i had a few weeks ago a similar strange behaviour.
After changing the sd-card I had problems to turn the device on. After a hard reset it began to boot but hang.
The I flashed back to original O2 ROM. Then I had a unpredictable behaviour. Somtimes no sound. Sometimes I cound not be called. Sometimes Error message "no sim card". After every reset i had an other error.
Hard reset and flashing was no solution. Removing battery for less than 4 hours has no effect.
Then I wanted to send it back for repair. I took of the battery. The next day I wanted to try a last time and surprise: The device works fine without an error. Its hard to believe, but the removal of the battery for more than 8 hours was the solution.
Now I use it for 5 weeks without a problem.
regards
Andre
It is Happening to my device too!!
It stucks every 2-3 hours!Tried many of the cooked ROMs but nothing.Also tried all the radio roms for 1-2 days.still the same!
It stucks with no particular reason.SOmetimes in s2u2 sometimes when am receiving a call.... etc.
Had the pin problem too for 3-4 times!
I will try your sugestion ANDRE and we will see!
Also i will try flashing the original rom,cid unlock and then flash the cood rom twice!
Fingers crosed....

now, i will try to flash back original german o2 rom
I think mine is sorted now, thanks to a new battery.
Installed it on Wednesday and hasn't died/crashed once since then.
I did notice before that the battery was getting warm, and I stuck the handset on the vent of my AC in the car, and this seemed to make the phone more stable.
Got one from Deal Extreme or try the XDA shop.
It worked for me!!
bricked or not?
did my device get bricked?
last friday i wanted to change firmware and during step1-cid unlocking (device should never been cid locked) pda got stucked. So i unplugged it and since then i cannot turn it on or get it into bootloader mode.
the only proof of life is when I take away battery and plugg it to power supply, then the red diod turns on and off for 1/2sec.
any idea what to do?

the good sign are the leds that means you have a very good chance...the guy made the piont...check the wiki

Freezing problem

I have a problem with my Artemis. I'll try to decribe the problem and if anyone can help me i will be thankful.
When is Power on it works few minutes than it freeze and screen desapears. After that I try to power but it doesnt work. It needs time to accept the Power comand and I don't know where problem is... (i thing that it's about temperature but i'm not sure)
I tryed to flash with later software and win mobile 5 but the same thing happens.
Any help?
Please specify which applications you have installed and eventually which ROM.
I strongly recommand you to flash your device with latest ROMs like Black and Blue one or others (see the Windows mobile 6 section of Artemis)...
A hard reset would solve your problem anyhow I suppose.
Are you overclocking your CPU with some software? like BatteryStatus for example?
Please let us know...
Gues i fixed the problem
It not was about ROM... I have tryed flashing with Black & Blue, Vanilla etc. but the problem was the same. When I put the Phone in the pocked it freezes. Meybe it was problem with cooling.
Anyway I used a tutorial how to upen the phone, i opened it, cleaned it (using spray for clean) and now it works fine i gues.
Thanks a lot...

I had the same problem with mine....
The phone is fecked take it back to the makers and get a replacement..
I had the exact same problem with my P3300. It's a malfunction in the Motherboard. I've called the dutch helpdesk and because a hard reset didn't do much good the PDA was picked up later that day to be sent to Eurotwice, the repair station in Belgium. I got my phone back 2 weeks later, I started it and it froze again! So I immediatly called HTC Netherlands and again, the P3300 was picked up by UPS that afternoon. The second time I wrote a letter to the repair station and sent it with my phone. In another topic on another website I read that some other phone with the same problem had been fixed by replacing the motherboard. I got my phone back today and it works great! It hasn't crashed today, and I have confidence it won't in the future. So my tip to you and anyone who experiences this problem: Call the HTC helpdesk in your country and ask them to sent your PDA to a repair station. It might take a while but they fix it well! By the way, you have 2 years full garantee so it didn't cost me anything! Great service from HTC!
Had the same problem.
Power was on, then de screen went black and stayed black even after pushing the right upper side button. Had about 4.90mb free storage memory on the phone and 200mb on my card left.
Soft reset didn't work but a hard reset did!
I have the same problem for the last week
I tried to change Roms to original and back to manila, the same problem.
the artemis freeze suddenly without ant reason. after calls, before calls..
it's not wake up and it's show a blank screen. after few soft reset and battery replacement is wake up and work fine till the next time.
for now , I'm work with doppod original rom wm5 but no WIFI.
I think it started last week when I installs "B&B 5.0 love" rom, before that It work fine with pdviet manila2D.
problem upgrade my rom
I'm now have a O2 UK roms on my device.
I try update it to Touch 4.02, with the UPSL but it no working.
the bar with percents jump from 0% to 100% in sec. and I still having the same rom.
I read the uspl guide.
can yo uhelp me ?

Help! My Artermis keeps hanging

Hi all
My t-mobile MDA III has developed a problem in the last 2 weeks in that it keeps locking up. When you look at the phone its looks fine, the green light is flashing away but when you try and switch it on, nothing happens and I have to do reset before it comes back.
I've tried changing the rom, I was using Black & Blue v5 for a few months and it was fine but that hasn't helped.
One thing I have noticed is regardless of which ROM I use, when the phone starts up it always says "Black & Blue v5"
A hard reset hasn't helped either
Any ideas?
Similar problems in here, without the "Black and Blue V5" situation.
I've allready exchange the battery, but with no success...
I've given up to be honest, I was on a call the other day and it switched itself off! I'm back using my old Nokia :-(
I'm due an upgrade with T-mobile but they can't make up their minds about when they are going to release the Diamond2, I guess I just have to wait.
Hi,
I'm dealing with this bug since the beginning..how often does it happen to you?Does it happen with a clean ROM,what apps do you install? In my case it's not so frequent but very annoying because,as you said, from outside the device looks like perfectly working (green light blinking)..but you can't even receive a call! As a result you have a nice brick in your pocket or desk without knowing it. Anyway I still think this could be a sofware problem...I have apparently the same bug when i do a full backup with Spb Backup:when finished and restarts automatically after 15 sec it goes into this "black screen" deeeep sleeep. Eveything goes ok if I manually choose to restart my device.My ROM is equipped with S2U2 running just after you switch on the screen,maybe it could crash the whole phone occasionally, cannot prove it...going to disable it and see. These are only impressions (and no solutions) but I can say that this problem occurs to me more frequently when i play hard with my Artemis (I mean flashes..install-uninstall things..). When the pocketpc is in normal use i must admit it's quite stable. All this to tell that hopefully the device is not broken...I got one motherboard already replaced and I can tell you that the symptomes where different (fading screen...watch out folks).
Ah,by the way: That "Black&Blue v.5" screen you have is the splashscreen from an old rom you flashed that hasn't been replaced by anything because maybe new roms you put afterwards didn't include any..You can take a look here to change your splash screen:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317726

I'm afraid this is a hardware failure, unfortunately I don't have the repair papers with me at the moment (i'm abroad).Try to take a look in internet,I'll do the same and tell you if I find something,keep tracking this thread! Ciao
Edit: there is a Customer Care Area at htc.com where you can write an email or call them. Here's a list of phone numbers from all over Europe: http://www.htc.com/it/CA_Hotline.aspx found with Google.
Edit again:If you consider to replace it yourself,you should take a look in eBay..it may be cheaper.
Will do that.
Tried other options, but ebay is suspicious..you can find something cheap..but what if it is the same like mine??
btw..today I got reply from O2 uk...warranty is expired for 1 month!!!!

(TMO) TP2 Turns off when screen is closed.

Hi all,
I tried doing a search on this before posting this thread. No luck. I just got my TP2 on sunday. I let it charge and flashed HardSPL and a few roms. I noticed my phone would turn completely off when I open and close the screen. At first, I thought it was the display turning off to save power, but the phone is actually turning completely off and I need to hit the power button and boot it back up again. Is this a setting I need to change? Or could there be something wrong with my phone? I also tried going back to the stock rom to eliminate that as a cause and the same thing happens.
Any help is appreciated.
I have posted an almost similar question here with no reply.

Not sure what the problem is. In my case the solution is not to close the keyboard when OneNote Mobile is still open!
My colleague is having the same prob, from what he is experiencing, i would suggest a hardware fault, probably just a loose ribbon cable... but best send it back to HTC to avoid voiding your warranty

Hi,
I had this issue to and send the phone in for repair. The said that it was a problem with the mainboard - replaced it and send it back. It now works perfect.
REMEMBER!!! If you want to send the TP2 in for repair you must reflash the SPL back to the original one, I think it is 0.79.0000 (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550131 for how to restore to the original HardSPL)
discoverd the same issue, happened to me about a week ago for a few times, when i slide in/out the keyboard. It just habbend about 4 times, but didn't happend again since this time ... i will have a eye on it...
Same here. The screen turns off completely but the phone actually works and I can receive or place calls. Called the HTC support and they advised to try if a hard reset will fix it before sending the phone in. The tricky part here is that this issue can not be recreated easy in their service as it happens randomly with me (sometimes it works fine for days). I am still trying to find out what causes this issue on first place. I think it started right after I installed IGO 8 and changed some power settings in the ini file but it kept doing this after I removed it. I also tried to disable the light sensor (the one that turns the screen off when you place the handset to your ear during a call) because it looks exactly like this - screen turns off but the phone works. So, I will give it another week and I will try the hard reset.
What roms do you guys have this issue with? I am using the stock T-Mobile US with HardSPL.

Sorry, forgot to update this thread. I ended up getting a replacement from TMO. I am much happier now that my phone doesn't turn off whenever I close the screen. Get a replacement while you can and ask them nicely if they can overnight it to you. I did.
Actually, this was a software problem in my case - I did the hard reset 2 weeks ago and since then I have not experienced the issue. I am going to start installing my previous programs one by one to find out what caused the problem.

Repair bricked phone

Hi everybody!
I have an almost 2 years old DHD which I think is completely bricked. It was working for approximately one years perfectly and then suddenly it stopped working. Whenever I tried to turn it on, it only vibrated once and did nothing more. Sometimes it turned on and these working periods were enough to restore to stock condition (It was rooted and had Eng S-OFF before.). I had brought it to service and they said they was not going to repair it as the device got water damaged. I'm pretty sure it was not! After a few weeks, it started working again. I was using it for 3 months then it bricked again and it's the situation today as well.
Previous week I looked into the development thread and saw all of these new amazing roms. So I took my DHD to see if it's working or not. The situation is the same. Everytime I power it on, the phone only vibrates once and nothing happens. I'm not able to get into hboot mode. At some very rare occassions the phone turns on and works flawlessly till reboot. When I connect it with USB, the computer doesn't recognize it. Battery is charged, I even tried another battery.
Does anybody know what happens with the phone? I'm open to any possible solutions to try. Please don't suggest to bring it to service or repair it, because I have another phone, just want to try to recover it and ask your ideas about the problem.
Thanks in advance!
Greetings,
Adam
So you say you cant enter in fastboot or recovery?
Since it's intermittent, my guess is it is a hardware problem. Some kind of bad contact/loose connection. Make sure everything looks good on your battery door and the battery contacts inside the phone.

I cannot enter into hboot mode. Didn't try recovery, but assume it's the same.

I also think it's a hardware problem. Will take a more careful look at the battery.

Wrong sub forum buddy, post in the One V Forum.
Its possible that there isn't "water damage", but there could be moisture getting into the phone causing it to act erratic. To cancel out that possibility, submerge it in a closed container full of rice for a few days
