help, interrupted ROM update, Stuck at bootloader screen

hi,
i'm a newbie, and yes i have screwed up.. performed (or should i say.. almost performed) my rom update on my desktop (which is kinda slow PC...) i had no applications or unwanted services running, my computer. The Progress on the Rom update (the desktop couterpart) had incremented and had become full (the progress bar i mean..) and it was nicely sitting there for about two hours with no indication of any further progress (yeah just wanted to make sure it wasnt me being hyperactive or in a hurry )
On the PDA it was a different story.. the screen indicated a 100% copy of some image file and then it was stuck at "Reset Hermon" stage. )for the record, i feel like a parrot now, these words dont really make sense to me.. )
So i removed the cable, battery and booted up my phone after about ten minutes... yup, just like i had expected it got stuck at the bootloader screen.
Now obvisously, my Rom update wizard wont work, as the very first step is to check for a existing Active Sync Connection. and Activesync is not a application tht recognizes phones connected in their bootloader mode...
Now i have no idea about trying to flash thru the memory card, i tried copy pasting all the files that the Rom update file had generated in the desktop folder it was run in(about 4 exe files that are supposedly 'not a valid 32-bit application' and two .abi files.. one of the abi file is 85 mb, so i guess that was the image file.. but when i copied these files into the memory card and re booted my PDA, it didnt show any change, as in it still asked me to connect the USB cable and was trying to get the image from there..
I have a o2 xda zinc. yeah, with no Operating system ..
to say that help would be appreciated is a understatement
damn, contacted the o2 support guys, but i have this feeling that this (forum ) would be a faster way to know if i have to drop my phone at the 'collection center' or not. i am still optimistic as the phones under warranty and its just a software glitch. Please enlighten me. what are my options?

hi
my o2 zinc has the same problem just like yours
if your zinc fixed or any thing new pleas tell me
tnx

If you have questions..... Thanks for your helps!

Use this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=680518
its better to download the latest KAISimg.nbh from ATools.
and make sure you have formatted your sd card to fat32 , in order to flash the kernel and install everything without errors.

Follow the guide in atools help.

Thanks for yours link
I follow them step by step but i still have the same problem!
It's amazing pls help me guys! i really need my phone.
hardspl 3.34 is ok Radio is ok
I follow atool tuto step by step.
When i put the sd card in the mobile and open the bootloader, the 3color screen appears net the white screen but he disappear in the last second
Any suggestion?

Verify the filename or maybe it could be a sd problem (try with another one)

Don't flash with SD, use USB instead. My Kaiser refused to work with SD, but works perfect over 50 flashes later with USB. I am using Windows 7, I just plug the kaiser in and let windows detect that something is there. Then I download the update for WM device center or whatever they renamed activesync to since vista lol. Afterwards it will detect well enough. Once it does I use RUU custom and just flash it over usb with that Kaisimg file. Not a well written guide I know... I can at least send you my ruu custom if you need it.

thanks for help
I'm under XP. I install active sync but inpossible for my device to be connected on the pc.
I'm losing my head lol!

as per your screen shot. you phone is in boot loader already.. active sync only detects phone wen its running windows.. you dont need to sync your device with active sync when its already in boot loader.. just connect it with pc and run update utility of windows rom u want to have on your phone.. or update utility with android kernel to boot android in it.. your phone will be working in no time..

Yep Activesync will see something is there but it isnt a WM device basically. That is good enough to let RUU Custom work.

Thanks guys i'll try this in the minute!
EEdit: it won't work can you explain me more how to install android with RUU custom? pleéase

Format your SD Card in FAT 32
use HP USB Disk Storage format tool (find it somewhere over google)
Edit: http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=197
and make sure that the nbh is renamed as kaisimg.nbh.
For instance only put the nbh on your SD card (nothing else) and try flashing.
I am using HSPL 3.59 and its going good. (before that it was 3.34 and never caused any problems) Radio Version 1.70.19.09

[Q] is my UNI ------- DEAD :( :( :(

hi all
it is been 3 full days now that i am searching a solution for my XDA EXEC to be live again as i used PM - e-mails every thing and YES been through all the thread before posting this thread with no LUCK...
the problem is my UNI was working fine with TML 8.5... great until i tried to downgrade to TML 7. something ... in the middle the active sync suddenly diss-appeared and i had (serial on top of the screen and V1.00 on the Bottom)
ok now YES i have read that it will switch to USB on top when i will connect it to a PC running Win-XP and i will be able to use MTTY ...or update the ROM again after flashing the DOC... but yet again when i connect to my LAPTOP or PC there is nothing on the screen change .... MTTY never gives me the USB option to connect to my UNI's Boot Loader...
i tried each and every thing i read on this forum... but all in vain ... i am a blackberry user but heard some good features of UNI like Terminal window and more so just had the device .. but stuck.....
can anyone just let me know that is there any hope for me in this device or its just another paperweight now ...
waiting for replies

Before you tried MTTY did you remove the sim and sd card? Sometimes that works to make the usb option to show.

open MS ActiveSync - > File - > Connection Settings - > uncheck the column allow USB connections
or end process WCESCOMM.EXE in task manager on your computer !! so MTTY will recognize your device via USB

[Q] Downgrading DHD using AAHK

Hello ,
i bought my DHD few days ago , it is shipped with the last GB update , Android version 2.3.5 , Sense 3.0 , software number 3.13.415.2 ...
i know how bad that looks , cuz rooting the GB shipped dhd seems to be pain in the ass ...
i started to look for it before making a new thread, i found 2 solutions , AAHK and HTC DEV TOOL .
starting with htc dev tool , i read that it has many disadvantages , and a lot of custom roms wont be able to be flashed after using this method in rooting , so i decided to choose the AAHK which seems much better , but i faced a major problem , the downgrading of the dhd ...
i started to root using AAHK , did every thing was written in the notes ,disabling av , installing drivers , usb debugging ....etc
1- connected the phone
2- pasted the password
3- pressed 1 to start hacking
4- i was asked to downgrade , i chose yes
here comes the problem , cuz the aahk started trying to download the PD98IMG , it completes 20 try then stops .
i took the link of the PD98IMG , and downloaded it myself , its a zip file sized 256 mb ... i put it in the file that has the same name in the kit , and started over again , nothing happened .... pasted it to the sd card and started again , nothing happened also , and the kit tries always to download the PD98IMG with no result .....
did i make any mistake ?
did i miss a step ?
any help will be appreciated , thanks in advance

it's not a big deal... just take the downloaded ROM "PD98IMG.zip" and copy it to the root of your SD card, then go to hboot "turn off the phone and then start it with power+vol down " it'll take you to the hboot menu " white screen with few options " it'll scan your sd card and automatically prompt you that if you wanna install the discovered ROM or not, choose yes and you must be ready to go.... hope that what i said is helpful and guys correct me if I'm wrong..
if i helped please press the thx button

mine transfers the file to sd card but hboot wont show any option to press the volume up key to start the downgrading process please help

looks like you have a problem with downloading the downgrade ROM due to your slow internet speed?
I suggest that you should download and install this stock rom
___h t t p ://shipped-roms.com/download.php?model=Ace&file=RUU_Ace_TELUS_WWE_1.84.661.1_R_Radio_12.35d.60.140f_26.06.03.24_M2_release_168987_signed.exe
This is an old stock rom but it will make the AAHK be able to root without downgrading the ROM. Since the link above is a direct link, you can add it to any download manager which can accelerate your download speed. It is faster than letting the AAHK download the old rom by it self.
Hope this help

Can anyone tell me how to install the driver correctly from the AAHK pack. I go to tools then win and install from there. Then I run the program and it gives an error message. Can anybody tell me what seems to be the problem. Thank you for your help guys.

What is the error message ?
Are you talking about the adb drivers ?

i am waiting for my micro simm so not all thinks i can test right now.
but...
i succesfully installed Devstore8 + HTC Interop Unlock
is there a way to unlock these phone ?
i want to side load some own apps
is this a good way to full unlock my phone ?
see picture

my device is locked in orange romania. I managed to install devstore8, but i can't install anything as .xap installation from IE is not supported. i also can't install htc interop_unlock & repair HTC. any ideas ?

Try to install it via windows phone 8 sdk
Sent from my Windows Phone 8S by HTC using XDA Windows Phone 7 App

got some stuff working....
busy with it...

i installed devstore8, but can't install interop unlock, it gives me this error : the system cannot find the file specified ( when using app deployment tool ). is there another way ?

Can you Explain EXACTLY the procedure you have used to install the Devstore8, ive tryed the browser donwload but i obtain a message like this: "you havent installed your business application please refere to your company tecnical service" i've tryed also to donwnload Devstore8.xap via usb to my SD CARD and instally it from store, but the SD Store entry dont come visibile with this app on SD CARD.
So what is the correct method to have a devstore8 installed and working on my phone ?

requirements : Windows 8 , Windows phone 8 SDK, Windows phone 8 developer account.
save the .xap file on the computer and use app deployment tool to install it on your phone.
at least this is the way i did it.
