What an ungrateful & rude person you are. YOUR phone was bricked when YOU decided to try something on it. No-one forced you to attempt it.
As you may have guessed from other responses here, most of us have flashed this and other ROMs with no problem.
Is it definitely bricked? Have you tried various recovery techniques.
Have you previously tried asking for assistance in a non-confrontational manner, or even just asking for assistance?

Last time i checked.. im entitled to my opinion. And im not a noob if that is what you are getting at. I have much experience with HTC devices, expecially ones running WMO. Bootloader will not launch... and various .exe command files executed through terminal can not force it into BL either. Trust me, its BRICKED. No connect of any sort from computer, not even a (da-ding) when i plug it in. Don't get my wrong... I understand that the second I type in xda-dev into my address bar the brick-risk percentage escalates from 0% to 99% for any phone. It seemed like an extremely simple tutorial, so i did it exactly as stated... only to receive a brick. Clearly by doing this, the person who started this thread was not intending to tell people how to brick... but hey it happens. Figured since the thread-starter has no WARNINGS (that are required to be there) it was for the most part safe. My SDA is bricked and I figured I'd let people know how I felt about it. As for an ungrateful and rude person, you dont know me -- so do not judge me... especial over and online forum (haha) You may want to re-read my post becuase it seems to me that i merely potsed a log of what i did, what happened, and what the result was (along with a little sarcasm). Any dev would appreciate feedback. The only vulgar words was BS and that was just because I was like grrr yet another brick to toss in my drawer.
Moreover, no biggie I like my g1 better anyway lol.
If anybody is willing to sell me a SDA Main Board for cheap hit me up!

OK, so we're both entitled to our opinions.
I apologize if I over-reacted, and TBH, yes I assumed you were a newbie. From my false assumption (my bad), I thought it sounded like you'd dived into something without any research, bricked your phone, and were now just lashing out at the OP.

I'm sorry your phone is dead, and I hope you manage to sort it one way or another.

I'm also jealous you have a G1. I'm stuck on my Hurricane for another 5 months or so until I can get my TyTnII screen fixed.

Anyway, I digress, sorry for assuming you were a school kid that had not followed instructions and was now throwing a tantrum. Hope you find a source for a cheap mainboard.

Hi
I tested this ROM some days without problems, only the MMS were not really working because there were no MMS network settings.
Today I inserted my memory card with Tomtom 5.2 installed and now after entering the pin it hangs up and only shows a white screen. If I press the "hang up" button there is the Enter SIM Pin dialog and "waiting .." is written. No other button is working.
I waited a half hour but nothing happened. Removing the memory card didn't solve the problem.
What shall I do?

Is there some way

Hi
I have a SPV C550 Orange - the phone was very slow and may say not workable.

What I do & what happen
1. Hard reset - L + R soft buttons + power
2. answer 0
3. phone become live and star to responding
4. cert.cab --> dont start because for some reasons the software isnt compatible
5. SDA_applicationUnlock --> return the device is unlockable
6. SPVServices --> crashed with windows error
7. Patched_RUU --> work but ...
8.
"do the same thing we did before, hold the camera button and it will show you a 3 colour screen. but this time it will say
need an I U(0)?" --> this message is not appear at all.
9. MMTY142 --> successufuly connected to device but only "info 2" run well
"format BINFS" --> is forbiden - I meen because 4. 5. 6. not pass right.

Now the question:
Is there some way to flash the Hurricane. At the "ubrhurricane.rar" have ROMUpdateUtility.exe and *.nbf - I have Qtek S200 and HP 6828 and both devices pass flashed well.

What will be happened if I rename 413.bin to 413.nbf and try to flash device with ROMUpdateUtility.exe

Sorry I can't help on the question above.
Just a quick note, I mentioned previously that I had around 2mb of storage space left on the device itself. Today the phone crashed (wouldn't progress beyond successful PIN entry at turning on), so I decided to try out option 2 during boot up. Phone worked again. I then cleared the hive, and I now have ~12Mb of storage space.
So if you have what you need backed up, and can selectively restore, it could be well worth clearing the hive when you flash.

It seems that the Orange Devices have special security settings in the OS that does not allow the SDA-Unlock to do its job. Luckily there is another way to get it done. Run the attached file on the PC, it will install a tool that runs on the device and basically "macros" the HTC-signed Reg-editor to enter the changed security settings to the registry. After a reboot you can run SDA Unlock and continue.

Now i can't seem to be able to update the rom... I have AS terminated and i'm in the bootloader screen with IU enabled. Am i missing something here?

I will now try to download the Patched RUU SPL from another download location see if it helps as in the other post regarding the failure to flash a Rom... Will update soon.

Which command are you entering at the end?
As I read the doc at the bottom it should be:
l path<filename>
where the first character is a small letter "L" (for load).
You seem to use the pipe character "|" and this does not work.

I have no Hurricane to check, but does the command "format BINFS" actually also accept a parameter <size>? It does this for the Tornado and you can reclaim device storage space from the flash if the loaded flash-image is smaller than the previously loaded. This works in 1MB increments. Look up this thread (post 2): http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=491240

If you leave out the <size> it will format to the previously allocated size of the BINFS partition. You must make sure that loaded image fits into the partition - no need to tell you that...

after that my phone cant on

we will now patch the ruu,
you will need to turn your phone off and hold the camera button whilst putting the usb into the phone. this will turn it on and show you a three colour screen. go to the spl folder use Patched_RUU.exe to flash your phone, after the bar has reached 100% you can unplug the phone. and turn it off.
plz psot here how to on my phone

in the unlock folder you will find SPVServices.exe click SIMLock Tool and let it do its magic, after this click CID Tool. This will set your phones CID to 1111...

If I run this exe from my laptop (windows 7) I just get a message saying

"Unable to create new document"

If i copy it to the phoen and run it from there I get a "website" window with "related Searches". No sign of SimLock Tool???

Do you get the same error if you run the exe either in admin more, or compatibility mode (XP SP3 or similar)?

Right click the EXE, click the compatibility tab to access the tick boxes you need for XP compat., or right click and run as admin for admin access.

Not guaranteed to work, but worth trying first, if you haven't already.

nope.

tried running as admin - no luck
tried compatibility for xp sp3 - no luck
tried compatibility for xp sp2 - no luck

still get "unable to create new document"

Does the zip file need to be unzipped anywhere in particular? I just want to rule that one out.

Where are you unzipping the files to? Only thing I can think of right now that might be Win7 related might be that some folders are protected, like if you put something within program files (and /program files x86 if Win7 64 bit I think). That said, I think run as admin would stop that being an issue.

Can we re-check the obvious.
Have you deleted the original files you downloaded, and re-downloaded them again?

Is the error message that mentions not being able to create a new doc something that looks like a generic Windows message, or is it an error message/text from within the SPVServices program internally?

Are you definitely running the program once it has been extracted, or just double clicking from within WinRAr/WinZip/7-zip

SPVservices needs a web-service for the decoding of the encrypted block. This is no more available since about a year. Look up the "Lokiwiz" tool that can do it locally. Mind that wrong use could make the device unusable for any SIMcard, so be careful.

Thanks for the help guys. I did find the lokiwiz stuff and tried that too. However on running that, it said that it couldnt copy or update itsutils.dll. So I cant go any further until thats done.

As a matter of info, on the tri-color screen on my phone the info is :

RED
Hurricane
IPL 1.00.15

GREEN
Hurricane
SPL 1.00.84

BLUE
Hurricane
