You need to be clearer.
1.) Is your device a G3 or a G4 chipset?
2.) If you flashed a ROM with the IPL/SPL information for the wrong chipset, you may have bricked it.
3.) Is it CID unlocked? If so, flashing a ROM on your device may have bricked it.
Please give us more detail about what it's doing.
If you have truly bricked it (made it totally unusable), your only option may be to send it in for repair/replacement. If not, there may still be some hope.
It appears that English may not be your primary language. If this is the case, I HIGHLY recommend getting some personal assistance in understanding the information provided by the person who provided the ROM.
DON'T EVER FLASH A ROM IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE INSTRUCTIONS 100%!!!!!!
If you think you just have a feel for it, go back and re-read it until you understand!
That having been said, WELCOME TO THE COMMUNITY!
We all help as we can.
I confirm it is cingular 8125(Wizard 100) is G4 chipset. Befor i flash, IPL/SPL is 2.25.0001. I may have bricked it!
Thanks!
yes, it's definitely bricked. Never flash a G4 with a G3 ROM. Check ur Private Message.
i have the self problem with my xda mini s, before was an G3, then i have updatet to G4, if bricked, .... nothing if
plzz help
i have bricked my qtek will updating, there is any way to turn it on..
plz help me..
If you flash the G3 ipl/spl to a G4 wizard.I'm sorry to say that your Wizard is broken .Are you in china now ,if you in china,you can change the brocken chip .it's cost 400 RMB.
I flashed a ROM with G3 IPL/SPL to my G4 and was able to recover by cooking my own ROM.
please can you share ur cooked rom with us please?
I would be happy to. However, all I did was followed the tutorials found on this site, and cooked it using the WWE off htc's website, stripping the IPL/SPL.

i understood from this forum that it's very dangerous to try running a g3 rom on g4...but do you mean that wm6,made for g3 is different from g4???cause i tried to upgrade to wm6 crossbow and it didn't work,i don't know how it happened,but i am still with wm05...so,what rom do you mean is dangerous for g4-radio or windows???is there wm6 for g4?
thank you guys, in advance!
Please look at other thread before asking... especially this one
G4 devices are known to have two things in common :
- IPL/SPL are untouchable and with version number ending with .0001 (or so)
- they are CID locked (wish would only allow HTC to flash roms)
G3 Rom comes with IPL and SPL in. So if you try to flash it onto a G4 device, you may brick it by altering the original IPL/SPL. This is known to be hard to do, btw... don't do it. Also, in case of failed flashing, the IPL/SPL are the only things that could save you.
So you should try flashing G4 rom only.
Unfortunately, the CID lock makes it hard to flash any rom you'd like. Only a couple of ROMs are flashable on G4+CID devices.
thank you!
hi guys.i need your information.some people say before u flash your phone with any custom rom get the clean system with tmobile 2.26.i have i mate kjam.its g4 and cid unlock..can flash my phone t-mobile offical 2.26 rom.because i am not sure that offical rom is g4 or g3.i dont wanna brick my phone.thanks your information and help
Don't flash T-Mobile 2.26 on a G4.... It contains IPL/SPL and will brick your device!
thank u
thanks for your valuable information my friend.so people are giving me wrong advice.what should i do? how can i get right rom and latest ipl/spl for my imate kjam to make my system clean?maybe from xxx.clubimate.com ?thanks your help my friend.thank u
You should read allot before flashing your device, make sure you know what your doing when flashing the first time. You cannot touch/upgrade IPL/SPL on a G4, but it isn't necessary! You can still flash new roms into it. Start here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
You also tell your G4 is CID-unlocked. Have you payed for it at imei-check? If not.... it's still CID-locked! There's a difference between SIM and CID-lock.
g4 kjam and cid unlock
yes.i paid to imeicheck.co.uk.i am sure my kjam all ready cid unlock.because this is not first to flash my kjam.i flashed before.(orginal kjam rom to faria 3.3 than to wm6 mb edition than to faria wm6 realthing than to x-plore 1.1 and now i am using faria wm5 3.3 4mb page pool)...now i am not sure how clean my kjam is?if ipl/spl update is not necassarly which you sais it's ok no problem.but i have some problem with my phone,i tried almost all task managers,i couldn't get good performance.i am having freezing problem.memory leaking problem etc...i thought maybe i must flash my phone some offical phone,but u said u cant use t.mobile or other...imate offical rom is very old version and useless and too slow..now i dont know what must i do?what should i do?thanks your help my friend.
I see! It is possible to got back to an official rom by recooking the rom without IPL/SPL. Here is explained how to do this:

thank you
In the unfortunate event that you need to revert back to your carrier's official rom to send your device in for service or an exchange, with HardSPL installed on your device you will be unable to do this as technically it voids your warranty. Fortunately there is a solution to this.
the-equinoxe said:
You can flash the ROMs with the RUU in the ROM package, should you have trouble with upgrading, try Mun's RUU (thanks for the tip Boto).
So no need to downgrade before upgrade anymore.
But don't flash ROMs containing IPL/SPL. -(This means do NOT flash an official Rom)

There is one way to revert back to an Official Rom should you need to though.
In order to flash an Official Rom again, you will need to remove HardSPL because flashing an Official Rom with an IPL/SPL with the patched SPL already installed, you will find yourself in the possession of a very expensive paperweight.
To remove HardSPL, you will just need to follow these simple instructions:
1. Download SoftSPL by the-equinoxe.
2. Download the IPL/SPL based on your device and carrier(attached below)
3. Extract SoftSPL to its own folder and then extract the nk.nbf file from the correct IPL/SPL to the SoftSPL folder.
4. Run Start-sSPL.exe and follow the simple directions. It is almost fully automated(your screen will turn white during the flashing process and it will appear to have crashed. This is normal so just proceed like normal)
5. HardSPL should now be removed if everything worked properly. Depending on your device and Carrier, download the appropriate Rom for your device:
T-Mobile MDA Official WM5 Rom
AT&T 8125 Official WM5 Rom
Vodafone Qtek 9100 Official WM5 Rom
Orange SPV M3000 Official WM5 Rom
O2 XDA Mini S Official WM5 Rom
6. Flash the Rom you just downloaded. There you have it. You have successfully removed HardSPL and reverted back to your carrier's latest rom and restored the CID lock.
Please be aware, I take NO responsibility if someone were to use the files provided in this tutorial incorrectly and damage their phone.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Credits go to the-equinoxe for developing SoftSPL and making this possible.
Nice tutorial.
I have linked the Hard SPL thread to your topic.

Awesome. Thanks!
Hum... just a quick question:
I own a Qtek 9100 from Vodafone here in Portugal... if I would flash those G4 IPL/SPL, wouldn't that mess up my IPL/SPL country ID?
Also, it would make it impossible to flash an Vodafone PT official update (they never released one or I would flash it but anyway...), right?
Is there anyway of getting the IPL/SPL from another Wizard that hasn't been CID Unlocked and dump it so that I would give it to you, so that we can start a database of CID Locked G4 IPL/SPL's, just in case someone needs to send it back to factory for repairing?
Guess it was a lot of questions

Check this link and tell me if it would be what you need. If it is, I will dump the IPL/SPL and add it to the initial post.

I will look into it and see if I can find it. If I am able to find it I post the IPL/SPL in an attached zip like the others and add a link to the official Rom as well.
EDIT:: Found it, sent you a private message. I need some personal information from you in order to download it.
Thanks.. I sent my imei + number to you.. Now I can finally revert back to the original rom and sell!

This is the wrong thread for this kind of question. Please ask this question under Wizard Forum unless you have a question about how to remove HardSPL.
Thanks.
Worked wonders on my o2 xda mini s.. Thank you for your help! I'd donate, but I'm a poor student

Oh don't worry about that. I don't have a paypal anyway. I simply do what I do for this forum because I cannot afford to donate either.

I'm not sure. I know the Vodafone pack is WWE(World Wide English) so as long as you speak English, you should be able to use it.
im getting an 8525 from att for 60 bux cuz my 8125 is a brick but not because of this.
anyway back to the subject this is really usefull and should be stickied
Thank you harvey! This has worked out excellent!

Actually, you can use ANY G4 IPL/SPL pack, and then reflash to your original carriers ROM.
Just put it into bootloader, kill wcescomm.exe, and flash.
EDIT: Sorted
Thank you for this. I just bricked my Wizard and fixed it. This post was very helpful.

The CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE only has G3 IPL/SPL.
This means that if you forced the SPL OR IPL on the phone, you have bricked it.
Block sizes from a G3 are different from the blocksizes on a G4, so you won't be able to flash the correct IPL/SPL back to the phone iusing any software method.
Only method which "could" work is the still unavailable JTAG method.
But because the Omap 850 datasheets (complete datasheets, not the simple block diagram) aren't available, it's impossible to find the JTAG pins.

Hi guys,
my brother gave me his old mobilephone yesterday. He told me that he hasn't flashed it.
There ist the old WM 5.0 on it, so i want to flash a new rom. I read some turorials which told me that it is difficult to flash a G4 Wizard.
Now the problem : when i start the mobilphone it shows me : IPL 3.08.001 & SPL 3.08.001.
Is it true that i can't flash it with this versions??
Can I downgrade them?
Thanks for yout answer!!!

Do if you have flashed a G4 ROM??
Is it sure that the 3.08.001 tells me, i am having a G4?
Tomorrow i am going to flash my mobilphone
you can flash your G4 Wizard without almost any problem if you follow the instructions correctly. Remeber to use only custom rom without IPL/SPL or you'll endup with a paper weight. HardSPL is not safe as far as I know, only SoftSPL.
good luck!
great!

first read all the manuals you can find on this site, if need assistance tell me!
just one more thing:
get a beer, or a cig, coffe perhaps, because the procedure is going to take about 7 mins (depends on your Computer) dont worry, if the flash procedeure stops at 99% relax, is pretty normal (it will finish in some more secs)
GOOD LUCK
Yeees it run!!!
I just did it how it is discribed in the tutorial.
Thx board!!
by the way, i was brewing a cup of coffee when the mobilephone was flashed. I came back and everything was done
