I upgraded my I-Mate Jamin yesterday to Profit Shadow 1.0 after following the upgrade guides, doing a Hard SPL, etc. All worked very well. Then I noticed that the volume wasn't as high as I liked, so this morning I flashed it again to Crystal 5.0 (not 5.1) and the volume was no better. Then I looked around and found an older version (dumb me I didn't realize it was a WM5 version) by LVSW (RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID ). This ROM had an extended ROM apparently. All installed OK, then I realized it was a WM5 program (volume still lower than I was looking for), so I decided to flash back to Profit Shadow 1.0 (no errors during the flash, but at the end when I got the HTC screen it went into Bootloader!). That's brings me to my PROBLEM! :mad: NO MATTER WHAT I TRY TO FLASH BACK TO, I JUST END UP IN THE BOOT MODE. I can flash LVSW ROM and it works, but NOT for any other ROM!! :confused: I have tried everything, read the forums for 6 or 7 hours and I tried everything suggested, but I'm unable to find a solution so I can Flash Back To Profit Shadow 1.0 OR Crystal 5.0. This seems like such a NOOB problem, that's why I searched for hours for a solution (hate to ask for help until I try to help myself first[/I])! I've flashed other HTC phones without problems… just never seen a ROM ( LVSW's RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID ) that just refuses to be flashed over!!!
You guys are always great and helpful. If someone could help me out of this mess, I would really appreciate it!!!:D

-If you installed ShadoW etc. rom, your SPL is 2.G4.4PDA..
-If you back to WM5, your SPL is 2.20.0001..
-If you want to install again ShadoW, first install HardSPL for increase your SPL to 2.G4.4PDA again, after you can install ShadoW :cool:

I did all that you suggested before I made a post for help... even tried it again, all except using the G4 method HardSPL (as my Jamin is a G3 - that's what I did the HardSPL for). Nothing I've read so far works... yes I've been all over the upgrade guides, etc. My hair is already gray, but it's going white fast!
Here's the information off the bootloader screen:
SPL 2.20.0000
IPL 1.0
GSM 02.47.21
OS 2.20.7.34
The ( LVSW's RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_NVID ) just refuses to be flashed over!!! I'm not kidding! Try to flash ANY other ROM and it reverts to the boot loader screen, BUT I can flash LVSW's ROM above without errors!
There are a LOT of brilliant people out there... Does ANYBODY have a FIX for this? I'm tired, blurry eyed, pissed off, frustrated and feeling awfully stupid at the moment! HELP!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH dioxda2!!!!!!!!!! I've got my Jamin back on WM6!!! You don't know how much I appreciate it!!! There should be a STICKY on the link you gave me!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353547
I had tried the TRADITIONAL Method last night, but it didn't work for me, but this DID work!!! IT SHOULD BE A STICKY STICKY STICKY!!!
you've better.... ( FOR NEW METHOD)
1. After flashing hardSPL for g3 ( step 1) all went ok.
then BEFORE flashing/upgrading your Prophet to WM6,
please copy the 3 files from the jumpspl.zip to the root directory of
your G3 Prophet ( JUST NEXT TO THE " \WINDOWS" FOLDER,
(attachached, pease unzip and copy then paste)
2. UNPLUG YOUR DEVICE from PC,
3. Execute the SPL shortcut IN THE DEVICE, then you see a all bright or white screen,
Then plug back the USB port ( connect to computer) the device, THEN use the Rom Upgrade Utility (RUU) to the rom you like ( all activities can only be seen in the PC screen, nothing will be shown on the prophet....
4. Finally, after 100% ( at 85% may take to wait a bit longer, just be
patient, as it may look like hang for about 2 minutes) just wait, all will went
ok AND OF COURSE, after it auto-restart, ALL will be OKOKOK !!!
( better hard-reset for once more )
You're FANTASTIC and I appreciate YOUR HELP!!! See, you can teach old dogs new tricks!! LOL!!! This is such a GREAT FORUM!! Thanks to everyone that took a look at my posting (or rather my dilemma) and considered a solution! Again MANY THANKS!!!!!!!!!
