mogul wont go past windows mobile splash. rom mishap

oslick · #1 (**permalink**) 08-12-2008, 06:54 AM

When unlocking my phone..i used 1.2 by mistake. I downloaded sprint 2.17 installed it.. now it takes a while to boot up and when it does it stops on the windows mobile splash screen. then it says tap screen to set up device.. i tap.. and no luck no response ...

I looked and could not find this anywhere and i am sure an answer is some where..but ive spent to many hours..
thanks in advance

my end goal is to be able to install 2.40 boot loader and go back to the standard rom for the device at this point so i can then use buildos

Did you pull the battery for 30 seconds and then do a hard rest yet?

Yes.
I pulled the battery out.. pressed both soft keys with the reset button, restored it..

Yes.
I pulled the battery out.. pressed both soft keys with the reset button, restored it.. I can get it into bootloader mode. is there a way in boot loader mode to flash it to another bootloader..

No.....you need to flash a stock pre-gps rom first....then upgrade the un-locker to 2.4 Olipro or use the one in my sig.....then start over by reading the tutorial in my sig from GaMedic....you may need to flash SD method...follow the tutorial...

Here are the stock rom links....thanks to IamCokeMan

yes exactly what I told you.....you need to flash a stock pre-gps rom....that is the only fix at this point.....you cannot flash Hardspl to hardspl as the have overwrite protection that is not signed by HTC......
