Hi im sorry i had to post this as its probably been asked over and over but ive searched forum and cant seem to find a working solution for me.

I updated my HTC Touch ELF with Onyx ROM after updating SPL etc and everything went fine but couldnt get a signal etc on phone so decided to go back to old rom that i made a backup of untill i had done more research and found the ROM i wanted.

Reflashed the backup rom build i made everything looked good untill i went to boot and it just powered off after the orange brand logo.

I cant do the goldcard method as i have no other phone that can take the card i do however have a adapter for my pc for the card.

Ive treid the ubrick thread but cant get mtty.exe to use usb port.


Can somebody help me out to get this up and going again, Sorry for posting this i know its probably been asked many times but cant seem to get it going and am a n00b on this subject really.

thnx.


[EDIT]
Just managed to get that unbricking rom installed and booted so am gunna try and flash my original dump again.

Seems it some problem with my original backup as just doesnt boot after brand logo, When building with HTC Rom tool other files are green but OS file stays black does that mean the OS file is bad?

the adapter for ur card wont work, u need a WM device to make the goldcard method.

Cant seem to get my original dump back on though :(

I originally just wanted to update to windows 6.1 but there isnt a official update can you recommend the best/most stable unofficial one to use?

Do they have them updates for the ELF, can only find those versions for ELFIN.

[EDIT] nm Noticed they are for either :)

Still having trouble with signal always searching, Installed latest radio version aswell.


[EDIT] whoops what a dumbass, I missed the pin entry at beginning which sometimes pops up but then boots into today screen if not enetered in time, finds signal straight away now :D
