Noob screw up, plz help! - Touch CDMA Windows Mobile ROM Development

Ok, so I did a hard reset on my stock rom before flashing to nsfan's 6.5. ive spent all day trying to get my phone to reauthenticate/activate/whatever with verizon. *228 dosent work. Customer service is lost. how do I get this thing to be a phone again?

Did you install the carrier cab? Try flashing back to stock or reflashing the NFSFAN ROM.

I didnt install the cabs untill after I allready tried to activate it. I will reflash it to stock tonight and see if I can get it to work. If not Ill take it back to the store, can they tell if its been messed with if I go back to stock?

Reflashed step by step. Is working now! guess I missed something,
well now im enjoying the 6.5 goodness! Thannks all!!!

[Q] Infinite Reboot

I have been rooted for a while now and had bakedsnack 1.4 installed for about 2 months now. Everything was stable until a few days ago when it started rebooting randomly then much more often so I decided it was to time to update...went for Ava v9. After reseting factory defaults, wiping cache, wiping dalvik, I installed the rom. Immediate infinite loop reboot, tried this rom 2 more times then the newest baked snack then the plain rooted stock. All are infinite reboot loops...I have wiped numerous times now and can't seem to find a problem, I have updated my radios and everything trying to fix this to no avail. I could really use some help...here is a catlog of my bootup and 2 of the infinite reboots after a clean install.

devs, i'm not sure you get how serious this problem is, and how badly it needs fixing. i reboot any time i open a network connection. for example, when i boot up, even before htc sense loads, i reboot. i cannot stay up for more than 15 seconds. i have forcefully deleted all apps that even remotely might require data, and still somehow, i sync to my voicemail. boot up, pull down lock, reboot, stuck. plz help me i want to be able to use my phone.

Have you been able to get it downloaded? I just tried to dl it from megaupload again and it worked no prob.
Downloading it now, will try it out. Thanks!
download went fine. about to push and flash. wish me luck... i just want my evo back waaaaa
flashed it. first try, boot failed because of a pu fail. stuck in bootloader. tried agian, and worked fine. my phone is rebooting as we speak. lets see if it worked...
and the big question: should i stick with ava v9 or what other rom should i try? i have never tried fresh, and cyanogen is too unstable for me. i have pretty much only tried ava, omj, and cm. plz recommend the must tries etc. i'm not asking you to choose for me, just tell me what to try.
dk
SHOOT IT STILL WONT WORK! i booted just fine, and was able to set up just the google account. the second i hit finish for the google account only and it tried to sync contacts, reboot. please help me knowledgable people!
EDIT: once i rebooted, i dragged down unlock screen and BAM! reboot... sad me i just want my evo back

I had the EXACT same problem as you. Was the PU fail next to the boot line during the update? If so, then I think you've got bad blocks in your boot partition and I hate to say it but you might not be able to flash any custom kernels anymore. Once I finally got mine booted, the only kernel that worked was a stock one. I was able to flash Fresh, but HAD to keep the kernel stock. I ended up calling Asurion and filed a claim. Got my new evo today and am having no issues.

That sucks man. Do what I did, file an insurance claim and get a new phone. They ship it out next day.
same problem I'm having:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808280
ok i think i finally have it. but now, what rom to use? please tell me. i might be going with the cm nightlies. but plz give your opinion. thanks for the stock pc...zip. tweetqit, thanks for letting me overrun your thread..ha
TO GET IT TO WORK, ONCE YOU ARE STUCK IN BOOTLOADER, JUST RE-UPDATE AND THE BAD BLOCKS WILL GO AWAY. OR AT LEAST THAT WORKED FOR ME.
Yup, failed for me the first time but worked the second. My phone was never the same after I went through that ordeal. No custom kernels worked, terribly sluggish performance, constant reboots. That's why I said f*ck it and had Asurion send me a new one.

what'd you do? what exactly did it fix? everything?
On first try, boot: fail-PU. I guess this is a common problem? pretty lame. Will post after I try again.
Ok so now that, that failed..how do I try it again? when I reboot into recovery it just checks the PC36IMG.ZIP and dumps me back to the bootloader without asking me to install it...
I've done what I think dkdude36 did [install PC36IMG] and did get PU fail, and now i'm stuck in HBOOT/BOOTLOADER as expected. Now I only have the few options in bootloader and don't know what to do. I've rebooted and gotten the bootloops then wen't back into bootloader and it loads PC36IMG but it doesn't give me the option to update again. Am I supposed to do something in order for it to give me that option again? If so, what? As of now, I'm stuck and am bricked (hopefully not permanently).

what if we run:
fastboot erase boot

what will happen? will it prompt me to update with PC36IMG.zip as it did the first time?

flashed rom and now stuck on splash screen

I flashed my Alltel Desire with Gingervillian 1.0. When it finished it said it was successful, so I rebooted and now it's stuck on the Alltel splash screen. I tried wiping data/cache/dalvic and rebooting. Even taking out the battery and sd card. Nothing is working and I'm really pissed :/ It sucks going from an amazing Desire to an lg scoop, which is what I'm having to use now.
Any help?
Yes, I have searched the forum, but other people are using diff roms and having a few other problems. I just want to make sure I take the right advice!
Make sure the md5 of the download matches, then do another full wipe and reflash.
Ok thanks, but how do I do that? Lol
Ok I found the md5 of the download, but what do I match it too?
Ok, I found a md5 checksum checker and found out that the download did not match. I downloaded another one and now they match. Can I delete the old download off the sd card? Or what do I do?
yes, delete the old one. put the new one on your sd and flash again.
dont forget to do factory data wipe and clear dalvik cache.
you should be good (fingers crossed)
I done all of that and it's still stuck on splash screen I'm scared my phone is messed up for good.
Could I try flashing another ROM and if so how would I do that?
Isn't Alltel CDMA?
If you have a CDMA Desire you need CDMA Roms. I hope you did a backup before flashing this ROM. Try doing a nandroid restore to the ROM that came with your phone. If you want a ROM go look into cyanogen
Unfortunately there are not to many CDMA Roms. I would be happy to hook you up with a gingerbread ROM if you want!
No I didn't do a backup. So now I'm screwed? FML
Well thats not good.
You can get your phone functioning by flashing a CDMA ROM. But without a backup you can never get the phone back to the way it was given to you. So you cant ever take it back to alltel.
Here flash the first link on this page
http://mirror.teamdouche.net/?device=bravoc
"cm_bravoc_full-33.zip" that should get the phone working but you cant take it back to alltel
Make sure you clear data/cache all the jazz you did up there
But it will still be able to do everything right? Like download apps, text and all that? I just completely voided my warranty with no reverse? Is that what you are saying?
And also, how do I flash this "cm_bravoc_full-33.zip"? Do i delete the ginger villian ROM?
Ok thank you soooo much!! My phone is working now, but I'm still unsure about activating it again and using it. Will I be able too? And I'm looking and I don't see a market so I'm assuming I can't download apps? :/ that sucks but at least its working some sort of a way! I appreciate your help!
For CM you need to flash the google apps pack, it should be easy enough to find
Thanks, I'll be searching lol. Do you know if I it will be ok to activate this phone?
What do you mean by activate?
I activated my other phone because my HTC desire wasnt working. Do you think I can activate my desire back up? Also..the launcher Icon just dissapeared?? I swear I didn't delete it lol. Any way to get that back?
Ok, I found the google apps. Do I wipe all data/cache/dalvic first before i flash them?
No, you do not clear anything when flashing google apps. sorry for not replying (didn't see page 2)
Your phone will fully function as normal, for me MMS doesn't work but i have a small regional carrier with no support. You should be fine
As for activation, you are no longer on Alltel's software. Since you didn't do a backup I don't know what to tell you. If they can activate it without seeing it that would be best. My best advice is do more research next time.
You kind of got lucky on one front though. Out of all the carriers that the desire is on, Alltel is the one with a leaked RUU (completely restore your phone with those). If you want to go back to how you got the phone you can look into that. (if you want to do that don't talk to me i don't know much about that, make a new thread)
Well thanks! I got the apps installed and the phone on and working, but I can't activate it. So that sucks. So your saying I could go back to being on Alltel's network if I use the RUU? Becasue I will definitely do that ha. I just want to be able to use my Desire. I miss it ha!
If i were in your position, i would RUU. That doesn't mean you can't activate your phone now.
(To do that on my carrier its *228 don't know about you, give that a shot)
If the above doesn't work call Alltel and tell them to activate it. But once again if i were you i would:
1. Do the RUU back to alltel's software
2. Root and download ROM Manger
3. Do a nandroid backup of alltel's ROM
4. Then get to the fun stuff like custom roms
Thats just me. Let me ask you a question, can you activate phones without going into the store with alltel as your carrier?

[Q] Help with unresponsive rooted phone

Hi guys,
I need your expertise and ultimately your help!
So i was running Lee droid for months, it was all good, did loads of flashing of roms without never any (massive) issues.
Last week, i decided i wanted to try gingerbread, so I flashed gingervilain and the kernel that went this it. I din't really like it, i missed sense too much so i decided to go back to Lee Droid.
I did a clean install after wiping everything as i've done dozens of times in the past. But ever since a problem has arisen.
Whenever I'm on call, when i move the phone away from my face, the screen doesn't turn on and I can't turn it on at all, even when i press on the power button. Which means i can't hang up. So if i call someone and end up on voicemail, I need to remove the battery to finish the call, and whenever I am on the phone with someone I have to ask the person to hang up as I have no control over the phone.
The phone is to be totally irresponsive.
I tried to re-install gingervillain and had the same problem. So I reverted again back to Lee's rom, from a clean install and the problem persists!!
Last night I tried to format the card and I installed snq's new kernel, but it still doesn't work.
I have no clue what's going on. Could it be a voltage issue???
I'm s-on by the way.
I'm seriously confused at what the fark could be going on!?
Anyone has any idea?
On Lee's rom forum, a poster told me to flash a RUU or WWE rom. But I don't really wanna do that for two reasons :
1. I'm not sure it will work since installing Lee's rom on a clean install didn't solve anything
2. I don't really wanna go through the hassle of rooting my phone again
Thanks!
Using an RUU is your best bet since no one knows wtf is going on. I would say to do that as well and I'm sure maybe a few others would. Yes, you would have to root again (not like it takes forever and not like you have to do anything other than plug your phone into your PC and run the unrevoked utility, seriously). That would be your best chance for fixing it. BTW, using an RUU would wipe everything out and start fresh so it probably would fix the issue.
If it doesn't... well, that's for another time.
u can try go into settings turn off senser
exit settings
then go back in settings again set the senser on again
I see more and more people having the deep sleep bug, rooted or not.
Wish I knew how to fix the damn thing! The only sure thing is that if the phone is at stock condition (rooted or not does not matter), it doesn't have the problem.
When I install some apps, it would start doing this!
Alright, I guess I don't have much choice then! I'll flash a ruu.
Thanks a lot fo your help guys

Thats what I was hoping to avoid, starting all over. I mean, yeah that'll fix everything and anything, I was just hoping itd be something like "oh just wipe this r that, or, run this app and press fix or something. Guess not. Thanks tho.
Now im soo broke, I cant even pay attention!
Are you in stock or a custom ROM?
Stock rom, only rooted.
Now im soo broke, I cant even pay attention!
