Bricked my phone? Help!

I have Sprint Touch Pro and I just installed Hibbys 1.5 rom. I had been using his 1.3 one which was running great. After I installed his new one, on the reboot it sits and hangs at the TOUCH PRO screen with the red text at the bottom. Is it bricked? Any suggestions? Can I reset it or something?

Re: Bricked my phone? Help!

Did you try the reset button on the bottom of the device? I was thinking about installing 1.5 but now i think i'll wait and see.... lol.

Re: Bricked my phone? Help!

Reset it a few times, tried taking the battery out. Even tried hard resetting but I cant even get my phone to hard reset. am i doing it wrong or something? This is what I tried.



1. Pull out the stylus.
2. With the device turned on, press and hold the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER (round circle on the front)
buttons, then press the RESET (tiny little dot under the headphone symbol at the bottom of the phone next to the USB/power jack) button with the stylus tip. (This finger contortion act is easiest performed with the phone held upside down… or you upside down and the phone the right way up, whichever you find easier!)
3. Release the RESET button, but continue pressing the VOLUME DOWN and
ENTER buttons until you see a message on a grey screen telling you about the hard reset procedure. If you get the HTC Touch logo then Windows Mobile booting, you haven’t done it right - try again!
4. Release the VOLUME DOWN and ENTER buttons, then press the VOLUME UP








HELP!

Re: Bricked my phone? Help!

You're not using the right technique to hard reset. You also need to hold the power button in addition to what you wrote above.

Even if it won't boot to Windows Mobile, you can still flash it back to the Sprint ROM (or whatever) by putting it in bootloader mode and connecting it via USB to your computer.

Hears what you do to get another rom on there and fix this.

Put the last rom that worked on the sd card in your phone, and make sure you name it RAPHIMG.nbh

-now put the sd card back into your phone after you added the ROM to the card.
Now hold down the botton volume button and power button at the same time, and press the reset button found on the button of your phone, but do not release any of these buttons until your phone turns on and goes to a white screen.

Now it should say some directions on the white screen, just press the power button once, and the flashing should start.
once complete it will tell you its complete and if it was a success if yes then just hit the reset button on the bottom of your phone, and that should be it
