Did my OS take a dump?

Hey, everyone!

I've been using the DCD 3.0.1 ROM on my VZW 6800 for a while now. Up till now, everying that I've used it for has been great! Lately, the phone would start to "lag" and "pause" on some of the phone items such as the call history. I was going to use the phone the other day and couldn't hear anything. I did a soft AND hard reset to remedy the issue without avail. I THOUGHT it was hardware related, but since messing around here are the symptoms:

Can't hear in earpiece
Can't be heard through Mic
BLUETOOTH works
PC won't recognize device through Active Sync
Can't put phone into speaker mode (either by holding send or on screen)
No sound (other than ringtone) come through Media Player, txt, etc.
Notification options:
Phone rings when it's called
Phone only VIBs when TXTs etc come through
Phone only VIVs on Alarm and other notifications

Again, everything up till now has worked FLAWLESSLY! I just can't wrap my head around this thing.

Thanks for your time and help!

I'd probably reflash.

Thought about that. But the PC won't recognize the device. When I go into bootloader by holding the power, cam, and reset button, it goes to the three-color screen. It also says USB on the device. But I can't get the PC to even give a notification that the device is actually CONNECTED to the PC. I re-ran the Update util, and it couln't find the device.

thanks for the reply!

OK, I did this.

The boot loader comes up as usual. I just stays at the three-color screen and says "Serial" at the bottom.

I formatted the 1gig sd card to Fat32
copied the .nbh to the card
renamed the .nbh to TITAIMG.nbh

No go. Wonder if I missed something. I will try one more time.

Yeah, still no-go.

I AM supposed to me using the 2.4 Olipro, correct? I don't need to switch back to the OEM bootloader?

Thanks.

Make sure you rename the .nbh file on your pc. before you do that, on your pc make sure you uncheck "hide file extensions for known file type"

Tools>Folder Options>View (tab)

Thanks for the heads-up! Even though it was checked, I unchecked the option (to make sure it would have the correct extention when I renamed it) and ran through the whole procedure again.

Thanks, btw, for everyone's time and input!

But it still won't load from SD.
