Verizon Update Killed my Phone
 
I've had this Verizon TP2 for about a month. I haven't customized and the only cabs I've downloaded were googlemaps, VZnav, and HTC Wifi Sharing. Today I tried downloading the latest Verizon software from their website. I followed their instructions exactly. When the download completed, TP2 restarted. When it did, all I have is a white screen with HTC in the center and some small red letters/numbers in lower left corner. NOTHING works. Even the power button won't shut it off. It won't sync with the computer. I removed the battery to shut it down and did a hard reset. Hit the power button and it comes back to the same screen. Soft reset does the same thing. Did I kill my phone? If not, how do I get it back? THANKS.

Here is the file I downloaded;RUU_Rhodium_W_S2_VERIZON_WWE_4.01.605.15_RS_2.35.0 0WV_NV_VZW_2.08_0105_PRL58005_Ship

put it in bootloader and if its unlocked reflash it to another rom.

With your phone powered off, press volume down button + power button + end all at the same time; this will take you into bootloader mode. It's a red green and blue screen with text on it.

I might add though that you will still need to be unlocked before flashing a custom ROM.

OK, I got it to bootloader. Rainbow screen with text. I connected to USB and text in white part changed from serial to usb. Checked on computer, but it's not showing connected to the TP2. What do I do next?

I don't think I'm unlocked. This was a stock phone. I'd be happy to get back to Ver or HTC ROM at this point.

As long as it recognizes you're using USB connection that's what you want. Windows won't see your phone connected. Are you SPL unlocked yet? If not, you'll need to unlock before you can flash a custom ROM. I'll attach the unlocker. Just run the .exe when connected USB and it will unlock.

I'm in a little too deep here............
How do I run the unlocker file if TP2 won't do anything?

If you're at the bootloader and it's showing USB, all you have to do is run the .exe file
