hi ,

I have a htc typhoon (amadeus) based qtek 8100 phone , by mistake I upgraded bootloader to a htc wizard bootloader rom ( IPL/SPL 1.01 ).Now the phone isn't opening turning on or powering up.When connecting to usb nothing happens.Sometimes, it blinks all of the keyboard lights (maybe sometimes that I play with key combinations). How can I repair and put the right bootloader into phone again ?

Note1: I am pressing cam button and connect usb cable nothing happens.

Note2: I can't access to the bootloader screen

Wow - one's a smartphone, the other's a PPC! What did you use to flash the rom? Whatever it was should have stopped you as the rom wasn't designed for the phone, unless you forced it and didn't know what you were doing...

If you cannot get a bootloader screen to appear you need to flash the phone using the JTAG service points. If you've screwed up the USB flash it's unlikely you will be able to do that or have the equipment to try so you need to take your phone to a HTC service centre and pay someone to fix it for you. If you cannot find a Qtek service centre any Typhoon rom will do but many authorised centres only handle certain brands despite being the same design so you'll just have to ask. I wouldn't mention flashing a wizard rom on it to them, just say the upgrading failed - for time reasons they just strip the phone and flash it they do not check what is in the flash rom currentyl - you may not have to pay if you have warranty :-)

Have you tried to hard reset?

Thanks for the reply.I was initially trying to backup the phone.There was a tool called wizardbackup.and in that backup tool there was a exe called spl.exe , When I run this program and click continue it had updated something.I was thinking that it is updating the rom area , but later I learnt that it is designed to update the bootloader.

how can I hard reset the phone ?
