By mistake I put a version of 1.6.7.1 ROM on my new cingular 8125 and now I keep the following error followed by a reboot:

Devicelook: You have illegally acquired this ROM! This ROM is only for phones sold by Ace-Hellas and their distribution channel.

Any ideas on how I can get a working ROM on my 8125 again?

Thanks!

Can't you put the Wizard into Boot Loader mode and re-flash with the correct ROM????

Recently, I purchased an MDA and upgraded it to AKU2.0. Then for the heck of it wanted to go back. Well my system hung and i ended up with a phone that would hang on the splash screen.

You have to enter 3 color usb mode by doing a hard reset once, then do a hard reset and it comes to a black screen and asks press send to hard reset or press another key to quite. Go Ahead and quit but keep holding the camera and voice command key. It will go to an htc screen and start blacking out then plug a usb cable from the computer into the phone and it should pull up 3 color mode. Then you want to use an executable form of a rom and you should be good to go.

the 3 color mode is tricky to get into though it took me about 5-10 minutes to get into it the second time.

wow, talk about making something more complicated then it is.
let me simplify your process, to get into "three color mode" which is usb boot mode, hold the voice command button and press the soft reset with the stylus. The device will soft reset, but keep holding the voice command button and it will go into usb boot mode.

Thanks for that simplification. I read about how to get into three color mode using awizard. But your instructions clear things up.
