I didn't flash my phone. At first it wasn't charging, now when I power it on i get the red, green, blue, white striped screen and it says serial at the bottom. Oh yeah, and it still isn't charging.

There is detailed info on how to fix this. FYI--it is always very helpful if you post the information you see on that screen, which is the boot loader screen. Is the device hard spl? What does the screen say?

 

[bookechu]

sorry about that. the phone is completely dead now. My phone was never flashed, so it is running the default software.

Did you try charging your phone with the WALL CHARGER rather than USB TO PC ???
Was it a PRE-OWNED DEVCIE or BOUGHT UNLOCKED ON EBAY?

Try to get your battery charged first, troubleshooting does not make sense otherwise!

It is brand new, got it after my other tilt fell out of my window (don't ask). Is there anyway to charge the battery without the phone?

 

[bookechu]

before the phone got stuck on the bootloader screen, it wouldn't charge the battery, eventhough when i went into the power settings it clearly said that the phone was charging

Did you get it from AT&T? If it is brand new, get a warranty exchange. It should work right out of the box.

I didn't just get the phone. I've had it for easily 4months now. Anyway to charge the battery without the phone?>

The obvious answer is that it is a defective battery, you need to try the phone with a new battery first.

Any re-flashing of roms to get out of bootloader must be done on a full charge.

I have never come across a stand alone battery charger.

Some cradles come with battery bays

There are cradles out there for the TyTN II which have a bay for charging the spare battery and they come with a power adapter - I know because I have one and it works well. Just google for TyTN II cradle. Mine was very cheap here in the UK and came with a spare battery as well (always usefull for a TyTN II owner).

Rather than jumping into automatic reflashing mode, once you've got a fully charged battery in it, try a hard reset using the stylus and buttons (as per the wiki here) first and let us know how you get on with that.

ok, i got my friends battery. tried hard reset, still getting the tri colored screen. screen has ruunbh in top right corner.
under that to the left is:
kais1*0
spl-3.02.0000
cpld-8
_ it also changes from serial to usb at the bottom as i plug and unplug the usb cable

Fxxking phone still will not charge.

Fxxking phone still will not charge.

Just but a cradle with a bay to charge a spare battery. Also, if you are charging via a wall charger, try using a USB to PC connection and see if its charging that way. It could just be a bad power supply. Try your friends charger. Im sure he will let ya borrow it for an hour or so.


Also, check to make sure you didnt somehow goof up the pins on your USB port on the phone. Many people here have made the mistake of putting the stylus in the wrong hole in the dark....maybe its possible you did the same ? If so it could be as simple as taking a safety pin or something and putting the pin back where it belongs.



Goodluck!

Ok!!!! Phone is back to the tri-colored screen and now my computer won't recognized the phone. But as i enter and remove the usb cable, it still switches from serial to usb.

Generally that means that you should be able to download a rom/radio combo and run the KaiserRUU. Go to HTC's website and download a new OS load for the tilt. Should fix ya up

 

[bookechu]

how would this work if the computer doesn't recognize my phone?

 

[pyraxiate]

Base drivers should be installed already on your computer ( activesync) . The RUU knows which com port to install through once USB is showing on the tilt...........

 

[bookechu]

RUU = rom, right?

i keep getting connection error
