Where was this thread a few weeks ago when I bricked my phone? At least I figured out what I was doing wrong in trying to revive it. I also had the chance to try it out thanks to the Alltell flash.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR POSTING IT!!!!!!!

We got to try and figure this out... As frustrated as Im sure you are, there MUST be a solution? Has anyone out there who previously loaded the same unlocker below gotten this to unbrick? On the top right corner it says RUUNBH? Below it reads in the red box:

VOGU100 MFG
SPL-2.01.1000
CPLD-3

I have nothing else installed on this microsd card other than that attached vogue file?

I tried different micorsd cards; tried reformatting them? I was about to try this...

Plea to those who have this working....

Did you repair your phone from the same bootloader screen or was it a different version???

Im not sure, but I believe the problem lies with the error message "no file found!"

Which file is it looking for? Does it need to be in a subdirectory possibly?

Thoughts??

Hoby,

Thats what it is suppose to do, wait for a minute, and Soft reset your phone. Now copy the nbh file from the Original Sprint Rom to the memory card and it will install and revert you back to the original Sprint Vogue image.

Maybe the Key is using the 512mb card because that is what I used as well.

Need more info... What are you trying to flash to with bootloader 2.01? Are you on the new alltel?

Re: Unbricking Vogue / and downgrading SPL
 
So there wont be any feedback, I just need to wait a few minutes and then reset? I then took the original nhb and load that from the card, and it sits... on "Loading..." forever again. Will there be any feedback as to if its working or completed?

Apparently the 4gb card doesn't work because its SDHC instead of plain SD...

The original file within the rom will be called ruu_signed.nbh your going to have to rename it to VOGUIMG.nbh and then put it into boot loader mode. It will display Loading, then Checking, and the I believe you have to press the center button on the phone to continue the update. It will show a progress bar on the phone.

So this WON'T work with a 4gb card? I'm not sure where I put my old 512mb card, and if thats the problem, I'm gonna be quite pissed.

Ah, then mine isn't functioning.... I have a XV6900, and basically since the unlocker didn't complete, and then I tried flashing the Altell Rom and and it only got about 13 percent and stopped, and now I when I run the flasher, it sits at 0 percent... no matter what.

When I try to do the SD card from various cards in various sizes it just sits at "Loading..."

Since VZW hasn't provided us with an update yet, I am using the virgin xv6900_RUU_signed from the FTP.
I appreciate all the help!

Hoby,

You need to have the Carriers original rom for this to work. Maybe someone can help you using mtty, and rtask commands to get you going. Which is allot more difficult then this method.

This file is for Sprint users only.

Here is a link to the file, extract it using winrar.

After the stock rom finishes updating, and it says update complete, do I do a soft-reset? I did that the first time, and it would display the HTC splash screen and reboot, and repeat. I'm trying again, please let me know what the proper step is after the completed update (I was dumb and didn't try a hard reset last time)
Edit: Yeah, the hard reset is looking like it did the trick.
Hmm, its been sitting for a while, much longer than normal, even after a hard-reset.

Its good to hear others are successful... I guess I am screwed. Maybe someone will pity me and can write up something about using mtty....

All you have to do is a soft reset, and the first time it boots will seem like a eternity, but everything should be fine. Also let the customizations run as well.

hoby,

Take a look in the Apache forums, I remember I have used it back in the day to downgrade SPL's in the past. Although it will be a little different on the Vogue.

Is that after loading the sprint rom nbh, which is the second file loading on the card?

Red49er 04-25-2008 07:23 PM

Re: Unbricking Vogue / and downgrading SPL
 
Yup. Did a hard-reset, waiting on it to see if it goes any better.

Boot the phone back into the bootloader mode, and what SPL version does it display?

Red49er 04-25-2008 07:37 PM

Re: Unbricking Vogue / and downgrading SPL
 
Spl-0..36.0000

You have the original bootloader now, try putting the phone back into the bootloader mode, and attach it to the pc. Now run the Sprint rom file with th exe extension, or run the nbh file of the memory card again. Something must of not installed correctly.

Red49er 04-25-2008 07:42 PM

Alright, its updating through my pc via the original exe now. I'll let you know if it works (thanks!)

Sorry.. I had to step out of the house and it seems like you guys got it back working..

What am i missing?

Use the 512 card - then flash once?

I tried all of this? ANy help???

Red49er 04-25-2008 07:49 PM

Re: Unbricking Vogue / and downgrading SPL
 
Batman, did you get the loading screen to pop at all? For the first (very small) nbh image, it should just say loading.... and then you'll have to soft reset it and load the second image onto your card. The second one asks you to hit the power button to proceed.
