Keeps restarting!!!

[rodreed]

hey guys i have a major problem. i was switching to a new rom (being that my previous one was just a demo i guess and it expired after 2 weeks) everything was correct to the best of my knowledge:

1) phone was fully charged
2) connected via usb
3) activesync connection was established
4) only RUU was running on pc

Well it updated my rom image, and loaded to 100% but as it rebooted it stayed on the "touch pro" screen & i noticed that the little disclaimer that normally pops up (*preparing device for first use....etc) never appeared. So i waited ten minutes and it still never pops up, all of a sudden the phone goes to the tri-color screen & stays there . Waited another 10 minutes then reset the phone (used the stylus to push the reset button bcuz as u kno this is the only to leave the tri-color screen). Since then my phone has constantly been rebooting itself (going on 45 minutes now). I am unable to connect to activesync so i am unable to try the hard spl again. Any help guys? i would be ever so appreciative!!!

Put it back in bootloader mode & reflash another ROM

Does it just vibrate and then restart? I had this problem when i accidently tried to flash a GSM rom to my CDMA phone. I'd either start it up in bootloader that way you don't have to activesync and reflash it... Possibly with another ROM.

yea it did.............and its been restarting ever since

i kno this is going to sound really dumb but.......how do i but it into bootloader mode (i am fairly new to flashing my phone i've only been doing it for about 3 months now & i've never ran into any problems until now)

Hold down the power button... volume down button.. and your stylus in the reset button on the bottom all in unison until that tri color screen pops back up & reflash the CDMA ROM of your choice...hope this helps.....

Reflash another ROM. lol. Most likely you either got a bad file or you are trying to flash a GSM rom to a CDMA phone or vice versa. DOH! Scared the crap outa me when i did it as i had only owned the phone for about two weeks.


When phone is off press power button and down on volume at the same time for bootloader.

lol i bet it did.........im still kinda scared hahaha

how exactly do i put my phone into bootloader mode?

[boredmug]

turn off the phone and then press the power button and volume down at the same time and you should see the tri-color screen
