htc 8125 stuck in bootloader screen

[StevenA86]

I got an HTC/Cingular 8125 from my wife's boss. She bought it back when it came out a couple years ago and stopped using it when she got a newer phone. Theres a password on it that she says she can't remember that blocks all access to the phone. I've tried hard resetting the phone to clear all the memory and to erase the password, but everytime I do, I get stuck in a screen that has a red, green, blue and white bar that are horizontal with the text in white and yellow that says "IPL 1.08" "SPL 1.08"

How do I get past this? How do I successfully hard reset it so that I can erase all the information on it so that I can use this phone since mine is currently broken?

Any and all help will be appreciated.

You need to download your original ROM from your carrier web page.
And in this mode (Bootloaders RGB screen) upgrade your device.

See on wiki there are many original ROMS.

But remember to not use so much your phone in this mode cause if the batt is less than 50% it wont upgrade.... remember that men!!!

and do your upgrade the soon as posible

hope it works for you.

Everytime I plug the device into my computer via USB cable, Windows asks me to type in the password before I can access the device. Is this going to cause problems when upgrading the ROM?

No just hold the camera and then soft-reset and youll be in the bootloader from here you can flash your device.
