Alltel 6800 - Stuck on bootloader

[JJohnson911]

I just upgraded the bootloader on my phone from 1.04 to the 2.4 in order to upgrade the rom. After the bootloader upgrade finished however, my phone will not boot back into the OS. Each reset brings me right back to the bootloader screen. How do I proceed?

Flash a stock gps rom and then flash any custom rom you like.....if that does not work try the exit bl program....

Each rom flash starts with opening an activesync connection.... I cannot get the OS to load. would the exit bl fix this?

You can download a GPS compatible radio and a GPS compatible ROM and flash them from SD card, this is actually very easy to do. Once they are both flashed on the phone, then you can flash whatever GPS compatible rom you want via Activesync. For now tho, since it won't boot, the SD card is your best option.

They end in .nbh, so look around, there are 2 posts one for the latest radio and one for DCD's latest rom, both should have links to .nbh files, and if not, you can rename the RUU file out of the DCD rom and then copy it to your SD card.

There are dozens of tutorials on here, just do some searching and you'll be ok.

Thank you so much for your help! I spent a couple hours looking around. Copied the radio .nbh to the SD, let it load, reset, copied ROM .nbh to SD, let it load, reset. and I'm up and running.

Thanks again.
