issues with bootloader - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hey i hope all is good.
I really need your help. I have a TILT 2 cell phone and by mistake a friend activated the bootloader. Previously the ROM has been updated. the phone got stuck in that screen and the only way to turn it off is removing the battery. so, i try to reboot the phone and it only loads the bootloader with a flash message saying "no image file". ok, i though, the ROM was damaged and after reading a lot in the forums, i followed the instruction to put a new ROM. I connected the phone the the computer and the message in the phone changed to USB and my PC installed the HTC USB Sync driver (but Active Sync does not detect the phone); anyways, i ran the task 29 and a new rom. I was able to see the progress bar in both (PC and Phone) but then the phone reboots and loads again the bootloader. I tried to use the HARD SPL 1.00 as well but it does the same thing after finishing the flash it loads again the bootloader.
can some help me pls?? i'm new in this and the phone is a work tool for me i really need your help.

You should do the HSPL before flashing a ROM (unless it was already done).
I would try to flash the newest HSPL, then a ROM.

Hi, and thank you for you reply.
I already did it and apparently it flashed the HSPL . Now in the bootloader says SPL 0.85 OliMex; then i flashed the ROM and it showed me the progress bar in both system (PC and phone) but when it finish it booted back to the bootloader. I just noticed that sometimes (after been off for a while) if i turn it on it boots to the rom but it happens randomly and if I turn it back off i just got the bootloader again.
I really need your help pls

Hrm, have you tried doing a task29? Re-flash the ROM after task29.

yes already tried the task 29 and then flash the rom but the same issue...i've been reading a lot of post regarding issue with the bootloader and follow the instruction but nothing seems to work. I even tried the update from the AT&T site but the same issue...i have no idea what else to do

So you've flashed the stock ROM? Have you tried relocking? Probably won't do much, but worth a shot I guess.
When you flash back to stock you flash the stock ROM, then relock, then reflash stock.

Yes, but the issue persisted.
I have noticed something. If i leave the cell phone turn off for a while (hours) and then i turn it on. Most of the time it works and all the things are fin; but as soon as i turn it off and turn it back on the bootloader starts appearing.
So, now i can use the cell but i cannot turn it off or leave the battery died on me...any suggestions?
BTW, thank you very much for your help

My phone is never turned off. I'm not sure what else to suggest, you've tried seemingly every step that could remedy this problem. Radio firmware probably won't help, but it shouldn't hurt either - you could try a new radio...

hi , this happened to me, solved it by reloading the rom again via sd, once it finish maybe you will see the bootloader screen again, so with stylus pres the reset buttom a few times until the rom boot , this can take several times to make it boot. after revive your cell , do a task29 then reload the rom again then do a hard reset, this happened to my 2 times, and its still alive ,good luck.

Same Problem
Hi,
I'm having the same problem. Installed the latest official ROM from HTC/ATT (gorgeous), and same problem after install. Whenever you try to reboot, it gets stuck in the bootloader screen. The last 50 tries it will not reboot at all, even after removing the battery and hitting the power button. This used to work occasionally.
Any other process anyone knows for getting the device to read the ROM?
Is the phone just worn out?

I suggest you reflash the shipped rom to your device and after the flash finishes and your device begins to boot immediately remove the battery to turn it off before it boots. Then replace the battery and press and hold the Send and End keys and while holding them down press the Power button and follow the instructions to factory reset(hard reset).

Help! Stuck in the Boot loader mode.

Hi Guys!
Please help! A couple a days ago, I tried to update de Radio Rom to 1:15:00 on my Siemens Sx66. All went fine untill the phone got stuck in the Boot Loader mode displaying USB (or Serial if disconnected from the cradle) and V 2.07. I removed the main battery and the sim card let it "rest" for ....two days now. Every 6-8 hours I checked to see if it works by connecting the battery for no more than 4-5 seconds.
Please help! How can I get it out of this boot loader mode??
Costin
Press power button and reset button at the same time
I tried
I tried. Is not working!.
Costin
If its in bootloader and you cant get it out try:
Taking out the battery overnight so that the backup battery dies.
Reflash the radio with one you know that works.
Bootloader
First, thanks for replying to me!
I tried leaving the phone with the battery disconnected. Is been like that for the last 3 days. Every time I connect it for few seconds just to check if it works......I can see the same think on the screen : Serial V 2.07. It seems is stuck in the boot loader. Any idea how to get it out of that so I can upload a Radio ROM version that works?
Do you guys know any software that will communicate with the craddled phone while in Bootloader mode?
Costin
You have not mentioned if you have tried to refalsh it (or have I sugest that before)
Reflash
Yes, I tried to upgrade the Radio Rom from 1:13:00 to 1:15:00 and it got stuck in the bootloader mode.

(SOS) Did I just brick my phone? (SOLVED)

I installed Nataly Rom on my phone and since that time, my phone start to hard reset more and more often (3 times today)
Now I don't think that this has anything to do with the rom, but more with my phone.
Now, If I turn on my phone, I just get my red vodafone screen and nothing else happens.
I tried a hard reset, even with a complete format, wich now puts my phone completly bank, but still it won't pass my red vodafone screen.
Does anyone have suggestions of how to boot it up again?
please help

try putting your phone into the bootloader screen and reflash with another rom.
I have a friend that had this problem with his phone. In his case there was a problem with the pagepool, installing a different rom as cobbs stated was the solution for him as well.

some of us have had this problem already - my advice- use tbe search function 'cmd task 29' is the answer
Hi Gort
Thanks for the wonderfull advise.
I already thought my phone was a gonner, but now I can work with it again.
For all the people who experience a phone that keeps hard resetting more often and eventually cant boot at all, here's what to do.
Procedure:
1. bring the device to bootloader.
2. Launch ActiveSync on PC
3. Go to connection settings
4. Uncheck the Allow USB Connection
5. Now, run mtty1_1_.42_538 on PC.
6. If you have run mtty1_1_.42_538, just press the button USB
7. Type CMD
8. Type task 29 and let the program do his work a bit.
9. after that, flash with the rom of your choice
here is the link to mtty1_1_.42_538
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=490182&page=4
Thanks for all the help guys, most appreciated
and hopefully this thread will help others now as well
edit: Link updated, should work fine now

Well I just woke up and I tried switching my phone and what would you know it worked but it kept switching itself off as soon as Touch Diamond was shown. So I entered bootloader and I flashed the EnergyRom and the phone restarted itself and on the starts screen my Radio was mentioned as "1.20 Olinex" and my prtocol was 52.55a something. And also there was a "G" in the bottom left corner after which it went to customization where it switched itself off again and now I can't switch it on again what do I do. :S

If you can, next time when it starts to work again, Try flashing the Radio to a proper one, then flash your hardspl again, then install a new rom.
Hey thanks a lot everyone I had to flash a stock ROM and everything started working perfectly again but I still wonder what had gone wrong. hmm. thanks a lot anyways guys.

help pls! troubles after flash :(

i flashed for the very first time on the w'end. I'm having a few issues... just wondering if anyone could help me please?
i tried syncing on active sync but couldn't get my contacts onto the phone (although i could before flash).
i forgot to hard reset after flash and I hard reseted the day after I flashed.
after i hard reset, i still couldn't sync. i only want to sync contacts and only have around 50-60 so its not a huuuge amount of ppl. i thought maybe it was bc i didn;t hard reset straight away so i flashed the energy rom again (sorry, idk if its leo or photon? its energy rom 23071 rhodium 21 october) and hard reset straight away.
tried to sync contacts but still nothing (it goes to 'sync' but stays like that ... i have left it for an hour but no contacts get onto the phone)
I also have some other probs that I just noticed this morning. I turned off the phone to try and get it to sync but after i turned it back on, it connected to data straight away. I tried to turn off the data connection but it wouldn't let me - it keeps connecting itself straight away.
I just left the data connection as is and tried to sync again but nothing happened.
So I just unplugged the phone. About 2 hours later I tried to use my phone but it was turned off!!! (I didnt turn it off again). I tried to turn it on, pressed the power button a few times but it didnt turn on so i soft reseted.
An hour later, tried to use my phone but when i tried to wake it up, it wouldn't go into the normal screen. (i could only see the icons at the top of the phone and the rest of the phone was black). I tried pressing the hang up button, the lights came on but nothing else happened.
Does anybody have any suggestions please?
Is it a prob with my phone or how I flashed or something that i may have done to it?
Sorry about the dumbass questions
I had a problem like this with my Touch long ago. Due to bad rom cooked by me (was my first attempt). What I did was put the phone on tri-color, and flash the phone with a working rom. Try that first.
sorry, what do you mean by 'working rom" like the stock rom? :S and if its not a stock rom how do i know if its "working"?
Also, how do i put the screen on tri-colors? sorry major newb here, i had someone on the phone to help me flash (amd it took nearly 3 hrs!)
Sounds like you have a bad flash. Download one of the stock ROM's & flash that. Than try a different custom ROM like either of the ROM's by NRG's/TwoPumpChump's/Monx's. I've tried all of these & they all work nicely. If this works for you try any other ROM you like. Maybe it's just the ROM you're using?
im using the energy rom 23071
i'd have to go to the library to download another rom (im on dial up)
can i flash stock rom and try energy rom again?
To get the Tilt2/TP2 into the tri-color screen you:
1. frmove the battery cover to gain access to the rest hole (small red button on the same side as you stylus)
2. Use your stylus to rest the device while holding the volume down button.
3. Keep holding the volume down button until the tri-color screen comes on.
Now you should be able to re-flash your device (I'm assuming you have run Hard-SPL on your device already).
Good luck!

You should... as long as you have you phone hard-SPL. While in the tri-color screen you should see "0.85.OliNex", if you your have hard-SPL and should be able to flash a custom ROM.
To me it sounds as though you have two issues.
1) as others have said you probably have a goofy flash. Redoing it with another is easiest solution.
2) When you load on a new rom you wipe out any relationship the phone has with activesync. Try deleting your profile in activesync and re-syncing. This is common with people who have also done a hard reset. If you have done this then refer back to #1.
hi guys, thanks for your help.
I reflashed - haven't had much time to use the phone so idk if it's ok now or not.
However, i'm still having probs with active sync i deleted it and made a new partnership, it will connect to my device, i can explore the contents etc but i cannot sync!!! when i look at sync results, it says sync failed. Severity : error
anything else you can suggest for me to do in regards to getting my contacts back on my phone (other than doing it manually lol!)
ok active sync is all good now
haven't used phone enough to know if its all good yet but looking good so far

Newbie flashed rom and now no Bootloader

Hello,
After i used unrevoked i tried to solve the WIFI problem by flashing LEEDROID 2.3. This handed me in an reboot loop and so i tried to flash a stock rom by teppic74.
Now my Desire wont start anymore and I dont even have acces to the Bootloader.
When I turn on the Phone i just see a picture of a box with an arrow coming out and pointing at the Android mascott in front of it.
Thanks for your help
Laberkopf
i think it means that you have no rom in.
can you give some info about your phone. locked/unlocked, branded/unbrande. firmware it came with. radio. etc. thisngs that you did that ended you in the state that you now are.

Actually i dint write down these things..
The phone was an OLED version and had no SIM/Netlock or branding.
After flashing the Rooted Stock rom it ended up like this.
if you turn phone off by removing battery and then press back button+power on, does it show anything?
or press vol down+power on.
Nope. Just the same icon as before.
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe
download this and run from pc to see if RUU identifies phone.
another question, if you connect to pc does it require drivers?
Okay something strange happend.. The phone starts to boot..
I dont know why but it seems that it just needed a Windows pc and some time while connected to the Pc. This is strange.
Anyway thanks for your help
ok. hope it continues to work. lol
