My bootloader was 0.x so I tried to upgrade to 1.0 and now I think it might be bricked.
I've read LOTS of posts here, but it won't hard reset or go into bootloader. The screen shows nothing, no matter what I do. The battery is good though as it works in my friends Uni. If I plug into my PC I get 'device not recognised' error.
Anybody got any ideas at all, ie flash from SD? Is this possible. I'll try anything!
Thanks in advance.
MTTY
Find a copy of MTTY, as notes on attached txt file, and follow brief notes.
Its a way of issuing commands direct to the PDA.
If its bricked you dont have much to loose :-(
Mike
yes it's work!

Thanks Mike. But the problem is that it just won't go into bootloader. I've tried MTTY before and no luck. It just doesn't see any device connected to my PC.

Thanks for the suggestion but as said before it just won't go into bootloader. Appreciate any other ideas?
Big Yella - what does the phone do? Anything at all?
If it's trully fecked, you'll have to get a gold card or jtag interface. But is there any life in it at all? Do the lights come on when charging?
V
Vijay - the only sign of life is when I push the reset hole and the light flashes red. Also when the battery runs out completely and I plug in the charger the light stays red for about 2 or 3 minutes and then goes out.
Apart from that, nothing. The screen doesn't react to soft/hard reset or trying to put it into bootloader. But it was a perfectly working Uni until I tried to upgrade the bootloader from 0.x to 1.x.
Do you think I deleted the bootloader?
Thanks.
If it's not the battery, I think the bootloader it messed up and bricked...sorry
Sounds like the battery is completely dead to me.
Mine did exactly the same thing a couple of months ago but all I needed was a new battery. Had me very worried for a while too though.
I haven't still got my old knackered battery to check, but I would guess that you should be able to get the bootloader up while the device is connected to the charger (and the LED is on, and red)? Not sure if that will work if the battery is totally screwed, but if it does, then it would at least prove that the bootloader is still "there"...
EDIT: Just noticed that you say the battery works in another Uni - I'm flummoxed then! There's nothing wrong with the actual battery contacts/connections in your Universal is there - 'cause your device really is displaying exactly the same behaviour that mine did when the battery didn't work...

Cheers Sub, but no the battery is ok. It works in my friends Uni and his battery doesn't work in mine.
Edited my post above just too late to catch you! As I said though...

Hmmm. The contacts/connections looks ok. Do yo think its worth taking a screwdriver to it and looking further inside? (I'm more than happy to do that, its way out of warranty)
If this happened just right after the bootloader flashing, I don't think opening it up would help. I really think the bootloader is messed up.
Unfortunately I guess clemsyn is probably right. Shame though cause I was hoping it was just a power problem, which showed the same symptoms in my case.
hi
my p3300 don't work
i turn it and it work and show today interface but when I touch the scren it
comes white end show not things and it not power on until after 10 ou 20 mn

If you enter to bootloader (recorder + power button at the same time), cant flash another rom?
i had that on mine as well, yesterday!
take out sd card, take out battery let it sit for a couple of minutes, put in battery again, try sd card in as well...and simply try holding bootloader-grip and resetting it with stylus a couple of times in alll diffrent kinds of alterations...mine eventually came on again
to sum it up:

Maybe it helps to resolder the CPU.
I did it with my P3300 when its starts to get withe screen sporadically.
For me it helps.
ok
now i can enter to bootloader and i put the original wm6.1 its turn on but after a few minutes its give a white screen and i can't see no things
Sorry for this news, but i think its a mobo problem You should check that (if u can) or give that to a service.
you do over overclocking via omapclock?
Hi Forum,
I got a dash with the WM 6.1 from this great forum.
Somehow since yesterday the screen turned completely white
There was no physical impact on the phone what so ever...
When I turn the phone on, the screen is all the time white... but the phone is still working since the alarm is still ringing....
I've tried already the following:
- took the battery out for over 6 hours and tried again
- with and without sim/sd card
- to reset the phone but with no success since I cant see anything (2 softbuttons, powerbutton etc.)
- putting WM 6.5 with no success with the Error 270
- pressing and holding any button
- tipping the jagger for 3 times
- and finally hitting the phone
All these steps didnt use me anything...
I'd be gratefull for any sudgestions
Maybe the screen is just damaged and its not because of the software...
thanks a lot,
RedDot69
Hard-reset will be best option and can be done blind since it's button sequence as known then green key, i knopw that peeps have done it blind and with you spending enough time it will be sorted... The other option is bootloader and flash your stock ROM as won't get an error 270
thanks for the fast reply.
ok about the hard reset.
I hold both buttons beside green and red button then while holding i turn on the phone (power button more then 3 sec.) after it turned on i let go of the buttons and press the green button (I pressed it a several times). What after that?? will everything happen automatically??
if yes then the hard reset wont help since its still white...
unfortunately I dont have the original ROM anymore (WM5).
Do you know where I can get it??
Ok I guess I managed to hard reset this thing.
Unfortunately with no success
can anyone help?
will the problem be gone if I change the display?

Can you sync with your PC? That's something that you haven't state in your original post.
From what you have posted in the first post, looks to me like your phone has suffered water/moisture damage. Classic white screen, nothing shows, display turns off after default timeout seconds, phone functions smoothly. For this to occur, you dont have to dunk the phone in water, phone in pocket when exposed to light rain, snow will do it.
If this is the case, the first thing you can do to salvage the phone is to remove the battery, otherwise the charge will short circuit more, leading to irreparable damage.
Second thing, try and keep it open for 24 hours or more and try ONCE more, just once, if the moisture has been evaporated. If not, remove battery again.
Next you will need to find a service center where they will dismantle the phone and physically air dry the PCB, and hopefully if it hasnt already shorted, it will come back to life.
The cost for this could vary from minimal to astronomical, depending upon which country you are in.
Do not take my words for granted, do a google for phone water damage, find out if those are your exact symptoms.
All the best.

yes I can. I already saved the contact list The phone is perfectly working beside the white display...
@ ccpraveen
I really dont think thats the case. Since I was sleeping on the couch, the phone's alarm went of like at 11 and it was all ok, then 30 min later the screen was all white
And the night before I left the phone at home...
Bringing the phone to some service center is out of question, since I live in Germany... If possible, I'd have to repair it my self...
By the way the Display time out works too... Somehow I got the feeling that it wouldnt use me anything to change the display
please, can no one help

install this on your computer http://www.mymobiler.com/
it will silently install on your s620 when it syncs with activesync and you will be able to view your screen from your computer monitor
if everything works buy a new lcd from ebay and replace it because its probably broken

My impression is that you have a hardware problem, maybe your screen has something loose. If you state that you will fix it by yourself, you can read the sticky on how to take apart your dash.
There are also power management settings that will turn the display white, however if it is white all the time, then it's probably hardware. Loose connections does sound possible. I'd check that first
You can try the following:
*- COMPLETELY disassemble your phone.
*- Take the PCBs apart on a table or something.
Then... take an hairdryer!!!
You have to dry your PCBs: take a PCB in your hand and do the work.
Be aware of not using TOO HOT air, or you'll melt all.
If it doesn't work, try to dry your LCD.
Doesn't work?
Okay, then the only 2 possible fixes are:
*- Replace the LCD Flex Cable if not integrated in the LCD.
*- Replace the LCD.
Hope that you'll get your phone fixed and running
pls help me ..i lost connection ugrading to a new rom...now my xda exec universal is dea...even cant get into bootloeader..onmy soft reset and when i press the O for factory defoulds .still does nothing just goes to its dark screen

Please read the wiki before posting:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Uni_Stuck_Bootloader_Serial
I think what dekyprio is saying is that the Uni does nothing while powered on. I have the same issue on my side, so for now my Uni is waiting in a box for the process to bring it back to life :-(
Any help would be appreciate.
Regards
hey,
i have the same problem. I got a looking new universal, I tried to updaty the system, but my battery is very broken, and it crashed while updating. Now, when I try to get in the bootloader, it's crashing.
I hope you can help me!! And I never worked with a windows phone, and I never tried to flash one, so I don't know sth. about doing this...
ebi
There is no backlight in bootloader mode. Go to bootloader, put the screen under a direct light source and see if it says SERIAL or USB (it will be very faint). If it doesn't, the device is almost certainly bricked. Make sure the battery isn't dead and try this while connected to USB or AC charger.
You could also try the mtty method in the stickied topic and see if the device responds at all. It could be a screen problem (long shot though).
Don't forget to remove SD and SIM cards before trying to flash.
Don't think my device is broken, as I successfully updated the ROM, then played with it, forget it more than 2 weeks on my desk. and then never wake up again.
So when battery is dried down, and the internal backup battery (I think it's a supercapacitor), are fully empty, then there is no way to bring it back to life. As the battery only start charging when at least we passed the bootloader sequence, how could we bring it back to life in that case ?
Just in addition to this, I already tried to replace the battery by an external power supply, taking care of the polarity. But without success.
Please advise.
Regards
me too,i put my device in bootloader but led not light(not light screen)

You would need a fully charged battery when flashing even if you had it on a charger while flashing, the charger will do nothing while theres a ROM being updated.

There would be no lights when in bootloader mode nor lights on the screen but you will see SERIAL at the top and V2.01 or lower at the bottom but you would need to look closely as there are no lights.

first of all turn the device off and then loose battery and SIM card, wait a while (approximately 5 to 10 minutes ), replace the batteries only on the device and make sure your device goes into bootloader by pressing the Power and ( recorder ) Voicedialer buttons simultaneously, and using stylus at the same time to press the RESET button on the left. Continue pressing the two buttons for a few seconds after pressing and releasing the reset button until the bootloader screen appears.
then connect the war with the PC via usb device ActiveSync and reflash with the official Rom htc Artemis
One really lame question.. but how i put the original rom in the phone? i have only one .exe.. i tried the update rom and everythign else.. I am completely lost :/
