hello
im using my o2 XDA atom (black) for six months with no problem and regular rom upgrades till yesterday when i accidently used the ATOM EXECUTIVE boot loader eboot.nb0 file on my 2GB miniSD card and entered bootloader on (camera + reset) the ATOM.

Now i cannot use my ATOM bootloader atall.
when i enter it, just a black screen and no buttons work either until i remove battery and insert and power on.(while in the bootloader when connected to pc the orange led lights but no connectivity)
the phone works fine although bootloader is not possible with SD or via PC
Im still using the fone with no problems but seeking help to repair the bootloader.
Im willing to upgrade my rom to the latest rom upgrade available from Jiggs.

At 6 months time I believed your device is still covered under the warranty, why don't you refer back to your supplier.

I doubt if service center will accept the unit since it was flashed "accidentally" with an ATOM EXEC boot loader.......

why you don't try to reflash it back to WM6/WM5 for ATOM via DSUU mode (the bootloader will also overwrite during the update process)

note: just my thought, I don't have experience on this issue. :D just be aware the bootloader issue is the most dangerous part. one mistake will make your device become a paper weight.

yea but the sad part is that i dont have warranty
and the rom upgrade via pc is not able to continue
as once the fone goes to boot loader mode
its just dead like full black screen with no buttons working

bro, upgrade via DSUU not bootloader :D

hock up your usb, sync with activesync then run Device Software Update Utility.exe

to be safe copies the 6 files into your c:\windows\temp and run the exe from there

yeah, why don't you reflash as what chartreux suggest. Read wiki here on how-to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ATOM_DSUU
