MAJOR problem loading WM6

I was in the middle of upgrading my version of WM6 and i got unplugged and now it wont resume and the phone is stuck at the loading screen that says "HTC" mobile.htc.com
what the heck do i do? it wont budge.. it wont sync with active sync, it wont resume.. i'm flipping out.
did you try get your phone in the tri color bootloader screen and then running the Hard SPL program again?
god, I'm gonna admit, I have no idea what any of that stuff is. I know the tricolor screen, I dont know what an SPL is.. a friend of mine usually sends me the upgrades for my programs and i just follow his instructions, but as i was loading the new version it got unplugged and when i tried to follow the restore options it wouldnt restore the upgrade.. so I've learned the term is bricking.
Activesync won't reconnect the phone.. it tries, then doesnt recognize the device.. so even if i try to downgrade to 1.04, it wont work because it wont sync with the damn computer.. I hard reset, i soft reset, i got it to the tricolor screen, i tried all the stuff in the hermes upgrade problems thread, but i dont know wtf i'm doing. the file mtty.exe wont work.. it just freezes at whatever screen i happen to get it to, be it the tricolor or the HTC screen.
please, someone help me out.. I apologize in advance for not being as savvy as everyone else, but I need some advice here.
Go the tri colour screen
press both soft buttons (the ones that interact with the screen) and insert the stylus and reset.
from here you can make an hard reset. Whenever my phone hangs (or whatever) I use this way BUT i use the cancel button (X) and the phone simply restarts fine
Did u hard SPL your device?

I hard reset, I soft reset, it freezes either way. The only way the computer recognizes the phone is when I get the tricolor screen but active sync wont connect to FINISH loading the upgrade.

I cant because it wont connect to activesync to install anything else.. i cant dongrade, upgrade, nothing! i cant get to version 1.04 from the 1.06 im running because activesync wont recognize my phone.
I think antonlim1999 mean, did you hard-spl before you even upgrade to wm06 or not ?

I already had wm6, i was just getting a better version that didnt have as many bugs.. I began loading it, it got to 45%, then the cat knocked the cable out and it got messed up.. I dont believe it was hard-spl beforehand.. im gonna go with no.
Could you try to SPL in the tri colour mode (as you have contact between the unit and the PC)?

A warning to those with an aversion to reading
This is a warning to those who don't really know what they're doing. Upgrading a ROM on a WinMo device is something that should only be done when you know what you're doing.
Hope your device can upgrade well, but please, take the time to actually read the wiki and forum before upgrading again, for your own wallets sake.

thanks, but I've upgraded before to other versions without a problem and I know that pulling the plug out is a bad idea.. the cat jumped up and ripped it out causing it to brick.
What all the smart arses on this site should be telling you is that you don't need activesync to run the upgrade - it will work just fine from the tri-colour screen.
First off, when you get your phone into the tri-colour screen, check the SPL version - if it isn't 2.10 olipro, the first thing you need to do is read the vanx guide's (link in my sig) and get hard SPL 2.10 olipro on there ASAP - this will prevent you from bricking your phone.
If it is already 2.10 olipro, then breathe a sigh of relief as everthing is OK - just put it into the tri-colour screen and run the upgrade again - it should start again with out a problem.
Cheers,
Smiffy.

Need Help!

I switched on my phone today, and it loaded the o2 screen, and now is permanently stuck on the Black and Blue screen.
I using Tom's B&B 4.0 touch-flo rom.
Please help!
try a hard reset, something similar happened to me when i was using a different rom and a hard reset fixed it, hope that helps.
Hard reset is when you push call and end buttons together and insert the stylus?
Didnt work either.
hmm.. maybe reinstall the rom then? Did you install any programs on the phone??
It's not detecting the fone, hence I cant even reinstall the ROM.
Is there any way 2 recover from this? Or did I just loose 700 bucks!?
Even problem whereas I had any concern with this version v4.0…
I flashé my artemis 4 or 5 times, it went super… (I would have of the Juste to make hardware reset…).
Since my 2 last flash, that blocks on the page during more 5min…
Flash after flash, always similar
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1445305&posted=1#post1445305
So wait, were you able to fix it?
As of right now my fone is sitting like a brick on my table.
Me I wait, of the blow I do not make more software reset…
I am obliged to await more 5min before being able to type my code PIN.
I do not include/understand, that had ever done it to me before this last flash.
I have remakes a flash, always similar, even while passing by a ROM Orange, as soon as I pass by again in V4.0, that does it to me!!!!
Its been over 5 mins for me and its still stuck on the B&B screen. HELP!
Make a hard reset and change the ROM....v3.7 for exemple...
Yea, I tried reflashing it, but the Rom update utility doesnt detect the fone at all.
Look this :
http://www.forummobiles.com/index.php?showtopic=139079
It's a french but it's easy with photo !
I read it, but because it never passes the boot screen, it never detects it hence it doesnt show up in the device manager.
What 2 do!?
Try hard reset again. What did you mean when you said it doesn't work? It didn't do anything? It tried re-installing and failed? What happened?
You don't need the ROM update utility to do a hard reset.
B&B 4.0 Getting stuck on the windows loader, is a know problem. TRy a hard reset to fix it.
Hard reset: Stylus in the hole on the side, and press the two " - " buttons between the red and green button.
This should fix the problem. Now you can flash another rom into the P3300. I'm, running 3.4 without any problem. I updated it with the HTC Tabs from Tom wich used in B&B 4.0.
The problem is that V4.0 functioned very well on my first flash…
while reinstalling the plug in HTC Home + the file SDK, that is better!!

I may come back, for now my Artemis is sitting, bricked, on my table and I've tried everything.
Someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
You need to flash via bootloader - hold record button down and soft reset - you now have multicolored screen - connect via usb and flash - you dont need activesync this way.

Diamond will not flash to new Hard SPL

Hi All, now I may be risking being shot down in flames here but I have searched the forums and tried modmydiamond.
I have an Orange HTC Diamond, the ones that just had the badge on otherwise seemingly a standard machine.
I attempt now on many times to instal a hard spl but to no avail. My best attempts gt the multi coloured screen up and the progress bar but then both bars (Diamond & PC) just sit at 0% for a bit then move to 100%. I then get the congratulations message on the PC.
When I reboot its still on the standard SPL. The only thing thats happened is that its performed a hard reset.
Any ideas folks?
And my appologies if this is covered else where - I have looked, honest!!
Thanks
Simon

Then try your official rom. (I put the custom RRU with the striped one).
Should work. If you can get into bootloader tisnt a perma brick.
also see this thread here, looks like the guy solved a problem like yours

Try flashing with SD card! Read through wiki to figure out how to flash through SD card.
I have tried SD card method...
But it shows bootloader with IPL / SPL version and "Serial" at bottom...
It dose't load any thing...
I have tried installing ATT official rom also.. but it says use updeted utility to flash....
I am able to go to bootloader and get USB connection when connect to PC....
But I don't have Activesync installe on PC is it a problem??? and I can't install active sync because of some restriction....
How to come out of this?
Is there any way I can Hard reset phone? Without switch on it?
Please help ...M scared....

ok, can you get into boot loader, press ok on left, and power on on right, and stick your stylus at the bottom, all together. Plug USB to PC, with boot loader screen, download the ATT rom mentioned here, and start the process. You have to have activesync 4.5 and .net 2.0 on your PC to have this to work.
Also, you have been given a link above for the official ATT without Radio, and here is the exact instructions on how to flash via SD. what part of any of these do you not understand?
Why would you perform a hard reset right after asking about it and not even waiting for an answer? If you had any doubts you should have just waited. I don't know much about your problem but I would't be taking the chance of doing something I wasn't sure about thats for sure. I really hope you can get out of this mess.
what size micro sd have u got. if it is larger than 2 or its a sdhc than you will not be able to flash sd method.
download another recent rom or just reflash the same dvha rom and do it through active sync on pc.
Finally got it working...
After 3 hard reset now I am out of white screen and now its working.
After 3 days
1. on splash screen
2. on bootloader
3. on white screen
Thank you everyone who have replied and who have atleast viewed.
learning:
Activesync is must for flashin through PC
new way to hard reset (thx wiki)
don't panic...your phone will be working sooner or later, if it was not a flshing that hanged it.
by d way i am posting from phone

O2 orbit

Hi....
I have non-responding brick. After a hard reset, fist stuck on splash screen(O2) and now it is just dead.
Not able to load boot loader, not able to hard reset it...not responding at all.
Left without battery more than 24 hours...still the same.
Battery voltage 4.35 V
Question is:
Is there a way to repair/reformat corrupted ROM installation (WM 6 official O2 UK) with some other cable or tool, because my PC is not recognizing device anymore?
Or repair center (new mobo) is the solution for my problem?
Thanks
Anyone?
possible solution

have you tried to re install from your sd card there is a thread on hear that tells you how to do it, it helped me out.
Yes I have..But, (don't ask me how) my sd card was broken (hairline crack on middle of the card) and while booting it got stuck on loading from sd card..
I think that it killed my phone.
How can I reload bootloader,since now it is not responding?
Thanks for advice..I almost lost all hope
