I have been able to use my Wizard for a while and to flash ROMs without any problems. But one day, the device rebooted while flashing and is stuck in bootloader. Every time I try to flash a new ROM, the phone turns on and off repeatedly, and won't finish the upgrade. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Had the same problem which actualy was not that kind of the problem. Propably your battery is dead, I had the same situation with my HTC but the battery was old and swollen. what You can do is to either plug the charger for few hours just in case or replace the battery with new one. It helped me in both cases. Firts I charged the battery enough to flash the rom but very small one. I had to recharge the battery after flashing because it couldn't stand soft reset after flash and it was blinking like Yours but everything was ok. Finaly i bought new battery which was good after all cause I bought 2400mA instead of 1200mA and blinking never appeared again.

Thanks for the reply,
I eventually was able to flash back to button rom by copying what the person did in this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477544) thread. Now I can flash roms but only when the battery is at 100%. However, every once in a while, the device will crash and reboot repeatedly until I connect it to a charger or wait a few minutes. I assume that this is also a battery problem? Either way, I will probably get a new battery.

I had the same issues and it was solved once I replaced the battery!
Good luck!
