HTC Touch Pro XV6850: Eternal Startup Loop

#1 (**permalink**) 06-03-2011, 09:11 AM

While working on my TP yesterday, all of a sudden, it froze. I restarted it, but now, it shows the Verizon boot screen for several seconds and then reboots. This cycle continues non-stop. The phone doesn't even attempt to enter Windows Mobile. I've tried installing new ROMs but no dice. The bootloader still works, and hard reset did nothing to it. Can someone help me find a solution to this?

Hrm, I was going to suggest a new ROM.

Did you try a stock ROM? Since it reflashes all aspects, perhaps that'll get it... Good luck.

Might need to go to HTC's website. My buddy has a RAPH800 (Sprint) and said the same thing... he found the official ROM thru HTC's site tho.

Also tried that, apparently the VX6850 page is non-existant.

I guess you want me to hand-feed you the link...

Here you go...

Edit - This one appears to be from VZ...
