ps i have found this tutorial

"goldcard" method is a bit more intensive and should be used as a "last resort" so follow closely:

(should unbrick ANY bricked Excalibur if performed correctly)

Get a cup of coffee or tea
You will need a working Donor HTC device with a microSD slot and a microSD card that is smaller than 1GB (will be formatted) to create "goldcard" image using QMAT tools as described below
You will need QMAT. Get it from Redirection.
Go to the Download link and download the latest version and unpack QMAT
Have some coffee
Use a SD card reader (either USB for microSD adapter) in your PC to access the SD card through Windows. Format the SD card with FAT32.
* Insert the SD card into the donor HTC device and boot up the device. Connect the USB cable and establish an Activesync connection.
Open QMAT and go to the "Hardware Forensics" menu and select "Generate HTC Goldcard"
In "Select device key:" select the Excalibur
You will need the serial number fro the inserted SD card so click the "Get SD Card Serial from WINCE Device" button
Once the Serial number appears in the box, click the "Save Goldcard Image to WINCE SD" button below
If no errors pop up and all goes well, skip the next step
If you get an error or a popup saying "Goldcard for newer devices isn't implemented in newer devices", you must buy and register the software. Believe me, it's worth the small amount of $ you will spend to bring your expensive device back to life!
Now remove the SD card with the newly written Goldcard image from the Donor HTC device
Insert the SD card back into your PC using the microSD card reader adapter. Browse to the drive letter assigned to it. You will see no files on the SD card, this is normal.
(If, for some reason your PC sees the SD card as unformatted, something went wrong. Remove it and reinsert it into the Donor HTC device. The device should see the card as unformatted and ask you to format it, say yes. Now go back to the "* Insert the SD card into the donor HTC device" step above and repeat the steps)
Unpack your Dopod or other factory ROM and copy RUU_Signed.nbh to the SD card. Once it had finished copying, rename the file to EXCAIMG.nbh. Remove the SD card from the PC.
Make sure the Excalibur is off and insert the SD card
Enter bootloader mode as mentioned earlier (hold the camera button while pressing the power button). No need to connect the USB cable.
You will see a gray screen that says "loading". It will then find the EXCAIMG.nbh file and ask if you would like to start the update process. Follow the instructions and let the phone flash.
It will take 10-15 mins but your phone should boot fine and be back in action!

guys i solved my problem .. like this

Second way to the path of unbricking is:

(This method will unbrick 95% of all Excaliburs)

Get a hold of your Shipped ROM. You can find these ROMS either in Dopod's site, HTC's site (with a valid serial #), TMO's site (Unsupported Browser with a valid IMEI), or right here at XDA at this post (Official ROMs - Download Links - xda-developers)
Download one of these factory ROMS and unpack it. **Remember, if your phone is a TMO Dash, you MUST use a TMO Dash ROM. If your phone is HTC Branded, you MUST use an HTC ROM, etc., etc., etc...
Remove the SD card if one is inserted in the phone
Remove the battery from your phone for a few seconds. I found this step to be essential to reset the device. Put the battery back in.
While holding the camera button on the right side, press the power button. The phone will enter "bootloader" mode and you will see a tricolor bootscreen.
While in this mode, plug in your USB cable and you will hear the "ba-bing" USB sounds as the device connects
Unpack the ROM package you just downloaded and run RomUpdateUtility.exe. Follow the steps, check the appropriate boxes, and start the flash
Assuming all goes well, your phone will flash to the factory ROM and you can then troubleshoot what went wrong the first time that bricked your phone.

Oh no!! That still didn't work!? Or it worked but the flash failed with Error 270 or another error.........

** (This method is not intended for Newbie's and some enhanced knowledge of HTC devices and Windows is required to successfully work.)

** (Retry the second method several times with a few different factory ROMS before attemting the below)

For me worked HTC_S620_WWE_BT_3.66.424.1_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship this rom


And for all of you, i wish this info will be helpful!!! have a nice day all and don't stay with your brother when u install a new ROM )
