HELP! Flashing Rom cable out.. - Page 2

right when you update a rom it will kill the activesync connection and just switch over to usb. y did you take out the battery for after flashing? and did the update say it was successful?

Now i dont know if this is possible but it almost sounds like youve in someway managed to flash 2 roms to the phone.

Might just have become a fancy paper weight...

Doesn't sound like he can now though, lol.

OP: If you can get it into bootloader, just flash a new ROM via sd card. There's a thread in the update forum on how to do it, it's easy and painfree and no need to worry about usb cables coming undone. It's the only way I flash now since Darren told me how!

it really doesn't make sense that this happened from flashing a custom rom. even if it was the wrong type (gsm or cdma). still should be able to put it into bootloader. weird stuff goin on there.

Hey OP...can you show us which rom exactly you flashed?

Update:

It wouldn't go into bootloader at all for a little while, it wouldn't turn on so i took out the battery for about 2 minutes or so and thankfully it now turned on.
I read some posts that would say even if while plugged into the pc active sync won't run but it will still recognize the phone, so i ran the Energyrom update utility and flashed it, that immeditatley got rid of the frozen bootloader screen. Hopefully this helps anyone if a error occurs in flashing, or if you disconnect before the update is complete, thanks all.
