Heres what i used
ActiveSync
MTTY ver 0.01
Touch Unlocker
RUU_Vogue_SPRINT_WWE_1.12.651.1_2.13.00_SPC_NV133_ Ship

So start searching...


In Activesynce uncheck these options: Allow USB connections , Allow connections to one of the following and Open ActiveSync when
my device connects.

Plug in bricked touch in to your usb port directly to your pc or laptop.
Open MTTY ver 0.01
Under port scroll down to usb and hit ok..(leave all the other settings the way they are)

In MTTY type hit enter so this will pop up

Cmd>
now put in set 16 0
It will then jump down and say Cmd>
Then Type in boot
It should jump down and say this

Cmd>boot

IPLMSG:0x9:INFO: Jumping to image...
OEMLaunchImage 80000000
Jump to Physical Address 10000000

Or something like it...

It will jump to a grey screen for a little bit but then will load up and say htc smart mobility and will continue to load up like it was the first time you ever turned it on.

It will have you align the screen and everything... then it will attempt to do the full customization well
either way its going to restart your device and when it tries to load up you will be back at the rainbow screen but for some reason the phone still remembers the settings.
So again you go into MTTY and repeat what you did the first time but when it loads this time you
won't have to let it customize.

Your almost done but your not finnished
After you get it all set up, you need to go back to ActiveSync and recheck all the options...
Then run the touch / vogue unlocker until its finnished
Then all that is left is running this rom and you will be good go. (This isn't a link)

[zerogravity]

so i bricked my phone from trying to go from the alltell GPS rom back to DCD's. I think i already have the 2.31 spl.

so what's happening is that the screen is at the HTC smart mobile after loading, but gets stuck there. if i do a hard reset i get to the tri-color bootloader screen.

edit: so i found mtty version 0.01, but after doing the set 16 0 and boot, i still get stuck in the htc smart mobility screen. any ideas? heeeelp
