soft reset will get you out, but stay in it and reflash the ROM.

Mike,
Just so you know, if the rom upgrade starts and puts you into bootloader mode, if your lucky the rom upgrade will fail or complete and a reset will just reboot your device.

BUT.....

If the rom updater starts but does not complete, like you start the update from Windows, it puts your phone into bootloader then fails to connect to the phone while in bootloader (like what happens when you try to update in Vista). Or you get disconnected or lose connection, there is no easy way out of bootloader. Soft reset and Hard reset will not clear the bootloader. Everytime you reboot the device, you will come back to boot loader.

The only way out I have found is to run an upgrade that will complete. IE. The official Sprint upgrade. After the Sprint upgrade completes successfully, the phone will hard reset and reboot normally. I stripped the official updater to only update the radio, so it wouldn't overwrite 2.2 or the custom EXTROM, but would complete the radio upgrade (which was already done) and allow me out of the bootloader on the next reset. It did force a hard reset.

Just so you are aware this can happen. You should probably post just the official radio upgrade incase anyone gets stuck in bootloader, they can run that and get out with only a hard reset. Case in point--> stlpunk 2 posts up. Even removing the battery for an hour will not get you out of bootloader.

Or if someone knows the key combination to get out of bootloader, please post it.

Nall sometimes if it fails early a soft reset will kick it out of bootloader and all is good. But like you said sometimes it does that a revert to flashing the offical one. Once I finish my custom and include a version with the radio, all will be solved. Im working on it as fast as I can.

If you wanna re run the upgrade, you can hold the power button, notes hard key, and soft reset at the sametime, this should bring up a dim screen that says serial, plug ur ppc in, and rerun the upgrade.

Is anyone else having issues with the UTstar.com site? Seeing as there is a new Sprint ROM I want to check if there is a new Bell Mobility ROM. When I try to access the support software download page I get a SQL error....

1. Go to www.utstar.com
2. Mouse over 'Service & Support'
3. Mouse over 'Handset Support'
4. Click 'CDMA/GSM'
5. Click 'Software upgrades'
6. Get SQL error?

I have all ready called the Canadian support number to report the issues but the link has been down for days now.

Ok, so I tried flashing with an official rom, but it just doesn't detect the phone just like this rom. It seems that it's stuck permanently in USB mode. I've soft/hard reset it to no avail. Any other ideas? There has to be a way to get it out of that mode....
