when i press power button, nothing happen.
I try remove a battery for a minute, press 2 button and insert batter again, and yes boot loader showed again but after 10~15 minuted going brick again.
I try change diskimg.nb0 on sd card to wm5 original HP, but facing same problem.
last, I try formatted sd card to FAT32 (512 MB), do flash again, and after boot screen going freeze, or showed a minuted, flip then going to boot screen again.
somebody can give me an advice, thank for you help

From your explanation it seem that you still have bootloader, it mean you can fix your device.
Try to reformat your SD Card, choose FAT default partition and do scandisk to recover if any bad sector, or you can use another SD Card. Then reflash your device, you can use others ROM for 6828.
Good Luck.

bricked i-mate jasjam need help! :(

(sorry for d bad english)
i have a jasjam.. i had dopod 838 pro before n i always upgrade it to 6.1... but this time i was on v8 manila 2d rom then i want to change it to phamquang v20 rom. while upgrading i think 4% error 302 occur.. then after this.. my phone was bricked.. it reach d 1st logo screen(htc screen) and stuck always there.
can someone help me? all reply will be appreciate...
mine is :
ipl: 1.04
spl: 2.10 olipro
Try the sd card method to fix.
1. Format sd card fat32 and copy the .nbh file onto it. Rename to hermimg.nbh.
2. Insert card and reset to bootloader.
3. Follow on screen directions.
Should reflash the OS, just remember to have more than 50% battery power and backup your sd card so you can restore it before you flash. SD card has to be 2Gb or less.
Cheers...
sdcard upgrading
man i already follow sd card upgrading but nothing happened when i get onto bootloader screen.
2 things to check, the .nbh file MUST be named hermimg.nbh with no spelling errors. The sd card MUST be 2Gb or less and HAS TO BE FORMATTED FAT32. It comes formatted FAT.
To get to bootloader, hold power, ok button above flywheel and reset with stylus. Hold in until tri-colour screen appears.
I know you are familiar with it but others who read this may not be.
Most people who say that it doesn't work have the one of the 2 things I mentioned set up wrong, mostly they don't format the sd card FAT32 as they assume its already formatted like that. I also found, on occsion, even though I had formatted the SD card \fat32 that it required formatting again.
Hope this helps.
Cheers...

Multiple Q's :P

Basically, here is m problem:
I have a hermes. The GSM wasent working. I though maybe an upgrade to WM6 could correct some software bugs.... Wrong!
I realized it actually briecked (type 1a). Trying to follow the instruction to fix it, but i am not able to send ANYTHING to it!. Either by SD or Custom RUU. Finally i am standing with a Hermes, WM6, and it will NOT accept any flashes i try to put in it!
Its on HardSPL (2.10) IPL 1.04
Thanks in advance
Stephen_D
EDIT: Forgot to say what happens when i try to flash it!
With an SD card all I get it "Loading..." then returns to the bars
By USB it starts updating And freezes on 0%, then the software pops an error after 5 mins like what it can communicate.
Thanks
sort of the same problem...
I've been trying to flash a ROM for the past hour now and my phone doesn't get flashed.
(I already have HardSPL and I'm using a 1gig micro sd)
What I did:
Format the sd card to FAT32
copied the RUU_signed.nbh to sd card then renamed it to HERMING.nbh
I place the sd card on the phone that's connected to a charger
I press Power Button and Ok button on the left side then push reset
What happens:
It goes to bootloader mode (tricolor screen)
then it says loading...(2 seconds)
then goes back to the tricolor screen again
I waited for the prompt that I need to push the Power Button but it never came, so I soft reset it and tried it again but the same all over again.
The ROM I was trying to flash is the AT&T stripped ROM, I read it here that it's better to flash a stock ROM first before flashing/upgrading to a cooked ROM.
By the way I just found out that my X01HT isn't a Softbank, it's a DoCoMo.
Is my phone upgradeable?
Can someone please tell me what I missed?....I really want to upgrade my phone without bricking it.
Thanks!

What format is your SD card? Fat or Fat32?
Its gota be Fat32 to flash from it.
it's all good now....
I've given up flashing my phone from the sd card so I decided to flash it with my laptop instead. Luckily it worked without a hitch.
I'm so loving my phone now, been playing with it for 2 hours and the usual hang ups I got before are non-existing anymore.
To use the sd card method you need to check that the .nbh file is hermimg.nbh, NOT herming.nbh as you had written on your previous post.
The holy trinity of sd card flashing, Formated FAT32, Named hermimg.nbh & sd card is 2Gb or less...
Cheers...
I see.....
ok hermimg.nbh
will try this again, maybe next week since I'm enjoying my new ROM right now.
Thanks ultramag69!

[ClosePlz][Solved][HardSPL] can't update from LEOIMG.NBH

I flashed my SPL with DTF's HardSPL and I tried to flash a rom from my internal storage.
So I did put the leoimg.nbh in my MicroSD Card then boot + Volume Down, my screen goes for the SPL screen (3colours) then blink for ~1ms on which I think is a grey page then goes back to SPL page.
Any idea?
Solution from Djet:
you have to format your microSD in FAT32, I did it with my stock microSD and it worked. VolumeDown button before starting makes the device boot in UpdateMode (3color screen then gray screen asking to press PowerButton to update from leoimg.nbh or volumeDown to cancel).
thanks!
The grey screen is the one that asks you if you wish to go ahead with the update. I think you're just pressing the Volume button too long after getting to the SPL screen as VOL cancels the update and the power button updates, iirc...
Is your storage card a FAT16-formatted plain SD (non-SDHC)?

no, as I release the VOL button right when I start seeing the 3color screen, like 1s before the gray blink. I guess that it's the update screen that shows up but I want to know why it doesn't stay and if it is a bug from HSPL

It's the retail one (2Go) FAT 16 formatted
Same problem here, I tried flashing from two different SD card without success.
I tried even with gold card method, same results.
I think is relating with HSPL that I flashed 2 days ago.
Anyone have a solution for this problem?
I've just realized the stock 2GB goldcard I used to flashing with HSPL is actually FAT32, not FAT16. You could try.

It worked. Today I bought a 2GB microSD (sandisk) card, I formatted to FAT 32 in Windows, I put .nbh from stock 1.43, and gray screen appeared with loading… etc, now i'm back to 1.42 again. Be careful when loading screen appear, remove the volume down button otherwise you will stuck in bootloader.
Thank you djet for your help.

I have the exact same problem but your suggested fix does not work.
I've tried several different sdcards and formatted using sdcard.org program, panasonic formatter, windows XP format to FAT32, Linux mkfs.vfat, mkfs.msdos, but I can't flash any LEOIMG.nbh file I try at all anymore.
I'm stuck as the USB connector on my phone has broken and I need to flash it back to stock to get it repaired.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I know this sounds silly, but are you sure you are trying to flash an allowed ROM for your phone? My T-Mobile UK phone would not allow me to flash the HTC 1.66WWE ROM via SD Card, but it would with the 1.72 TMUK ROM.
Can you not format the microSD Card with the phone? Are you using the SD Card that origionally came with the phone, as 8+GB cards are known to cause problems.
like this problem
my phone is hd2 t-mobile from USA. problem is update progress is going to RADIO_V2-OK RCUST-OK BOOTLOADER-OK SPLASH1-OK. problem is OS and CINFIGDATA can not update.
please help
I have had the same problem. This might could be useful to someone.

I've tried 32 and 16gb cards. The only one which worked was my 8gb card although they were all formated to the same format fat32.
jwchips said:
Aaaah typical, it would be the one thing I didn't mention! There has been reported issues when using sd cards larger than 8GB (but I've managed to use 16GB cards before, which is why I didn't mention it). At least now you know what the problem was..
Glad it all worked out!

I had the same problem. When I tried to just name it to leoimg (so leave out the .nbh) it worked for me.

Help! Custom recovery problem! URGENT

I have no idea what's happening
I installed thunderg custom recovery successfuly to flash PrimeV2. I clicked on partition SD card and set the swap to 0 and ext to 512. Then the dots started filling the screen i.e. the card was being partitioned. It was curiously taking a lot of time, but I let it be because I had no idea about this process.
After 30 mins or so, the dots were still filling the screen. I went away for a while, came back after 10 minutes, and now I see thunderg custom recovery caught in an endless 'loop'. I.e. I see the custom recovery menu screen, cannot move the pointer with the volume keys, and it keeps 'refreshing' i.e. the screen moves a bit as though it's just loaded thunderg. It's tough to explain.
The power button doesn't work. I have no idea what to do. I taking out the battery safe?!
If you need a video of whats happening tell me.
Update: Now the screen is black with BUILD: Ra-thunderg 1.1.0-GNM at the bottom, and it's still 'refreshing' like before. No button works.
Are you able to boot in to the system? Wat type and size sd u use?
Did u try reflashing 2.2 via kdz?
Taking out battery should solve the problem, I think so.
Sounds like there is a problem with your sd card, try using another one if possible, or format it before you partition the card. Make sure you have 512mb of space to partition in the first place.
Removed battery, put it in again, then formatted the SD card again and THEN partitioned it. Worked this time.

[Q] Restoring SC card to allow flashing

My 2GB SD used to let me flash my HD2 by putting the LEOIMG file on it.
I didn't use this method much, but it was always a good feeling, knowing I could, at any point, revert back to stock settings (SPL and all that jazz included) in case something goes wrong.
However, after trying out WP7, despite having re-formatted the card, I can no longer use it to do this.
I've tried partitioning with EASUS Partition software, I've tried fdisk under Linux and GPARTED. The card consists of a single FAT16 partition and that one file.
However, if I put the card in and boot the phone up holding down the Volume Down key, it'll enter the bootloader, flash a grey screen for a fraction of a second (I suspect it's the screen that lets me flash from SD card, but then something goes wrong), and then reverts back to the bootloader.
Does anyone know what could be wrong? I'd like to stress that the SD card DID once work fine.
Needs to be fat32 not fat16

Ahh, K. But still the same. :|
did you remove the stangely formatted wp7 partition?
Also, when bootloader flickers grey for a second, that can be bootloader looking at the file and checking it for deviceID and carrier/regionID, and finding a mismatch.
you will get this behavour if, for example, you try flash an incorrect rom (cooked, radio, splashscreen, different language, whatever, something that would require hspl) whilst hspl isn't installed
Ahh, it never occured to me that the file I extracted might have become corrupted, and I kept copying it over and over and over again.
Re-downloading the firmware and extracting the image file worked.
THANKS!
