Well i flashed my g1 to hero rom by JAC
and now its looping at the screen with the little android guy
what did i do wrong
Can someone help me out please
i made another thread but no ones being nice so no tough love please mods
Did you set your SD card up the way its suppose to be?
Repartition/format your SD card
Copy the update to it
Load Recovery
Wipe
Install
Boot
I had that problem the hero rom don't play well with the g1 I reformatted the card and started from scratch with a more stable rom
Figured i would update this with the knowledge i have gained. Erase the EXT2 / 3 partition then wipe. Load the ROM again and reboot. This should let it pass the boot loop. I had the problem this morning with Drizzy's Hero build and now with JAC's I am running tests with.

I recently rooted my GSM Hero and applied ModaCo rom.
I then wiped and put on the Hero BeHero ROM.
When I went to reset my Hero, it stuck on the HTC Hero boot screen
(the one with the waving Androids coming out of the O and H).
I cannot get past that screen, I cannot get to the MENU>POWER menu.
Anyone got any advice how to restore my Hero?
I'm pretty much desperate.
you have an apps2sd partition?

Let's pretend I have no idea what that is
Its probably because you did not wipe the cache option in your recovery as well as data.
Try to flash another rom.. I had the same problem with the Kimera rom...
I wasn't able to boot so I tried to flash another rom and it worked
But before you should try to wipe everything
I get exactly the same problems. Running MoDaCo Custom ROM 2.5 now, with APP2SD and Dalvik cache copied to SD as well....simple wipe to factory settings, applying the Custom 2.1 ROM always makes my phone to lock on the first boot screen. I tried SenseHero 2.1, 2.2, Villain 5.4...always the same....
so actually I need to wipe the delvik cache and apps from sd as well ? how do You wipe Dalvik cache? I got RA-Hero recovery console...
i am about to bet you a case of beer that you have an ext4 partition on your sdcard... remove that or make it ext2/3 and it will boot...

I had no partition on it.
I sent it away to be looked at and they guy in the shop said it was "beyond repair" yet I can see the Hero "waving android" screen (it still won't boot past that).
How do I fix this?
Ok apparently in my futile attempts to OC the Pure Hero 1.0 Rom I've totaly got something hosed up. The phone works but features that others have working flake out on me. Is there a way to wipe fully the whole thing and reset back to the rooted 2.1 Rom as we did before the Recovery image.
If it is as simple as just flashing the original developers Rom please don't flame me..I did search.
I do a factory wipe then Dalvik Wipe then Ext Partition wipe before flashing an image.
I currently can't get Wifi to work on Punk.Kaos Rom nor on the Pure Hero (I think that was an issues though)..
Thanks for all the hard work you guys do....
copy a rom you want to use to your sdcard. then go into recovery, wipe the phone, then flash zip from sdcard. done!
That is what I have been doing and some of the settings are still flaking out and the Kaos rom is V15 he fixed wifi in v2. I can't even get Jamezelle's sensable rom to even flash with out a boot loop at animation.
Thanks for the help.
No nandroid backup?? I know before flashing the first Rom on the phone I made a nandroid back up on my wifes and pretty much do everytime before flashing a new rom. These things are priceless
Follow the the original root procedure.
*Suggestion*, when phone boots.... open setcpu and adjust the CPU OC setting.... maybe...
id say go to the downgrade to 1.5 from 2.1 root thread and do that and then re upgrade and reinstall the recovery image.
I agree with doing a full downgrade to 1.5 and rooting again. I had problems similar to yours and this solved the problem. Good luck.

Thanks I just wanted to confirm that should be the process of going to 1.5 thne to 2.1 and restoring the Recovery. One last question and then a Mod can close this thread. The Rom Manager in the Market will that work for us or is that a Droid only thing?
Thanks for the great advice.
Forgot to answer the nandroid backup yes did it before every new flash of a Rom they would come back weird also. Secondly how do I get my SD card back to full Fat32 and not the ext+Fat partition for A2SD mode? I never could get the A2SD to work fully.
Hello everybody
Just to describe the problem I quote what I've written here:

Hello everybody
I've got a little problem... after a system crash (don't ask me how that happened) I had to re-flash my ROM. Now, after the reboot the "H" was flashing on my screen and turning around 'n around 'n around... after 30 minutes I plugged out the battery and re-plugged it in. Since then I’m not able to boot into Android, I only get the “Android” Text and Logo on my screen but the “H” doesn’t appear anymore.
I tried to re-flash the Rom and also wipe my device (task29), re-flash clk (I got now the 5.0.2 ClK Recovery) and HBoot. But I’m not able to boot the device. I also tried to flash other CM7 Roms (Partition 160 MB, Cache 5MB) but it doesn’t work for me
Anyone got an idea?

There are two ways of fixing this problem. One way requires you to use Mutty and was technical and mayby had a chance destroy your NAND, I don't remember because it was a while ago I was researching this.
The other solution which is what I recommend and did because it is a lot simpler and easier is to work around your corrupted block. You can do this a couple of ways:
Firstly, a way is to use CLK 1.5 to move a partition over the problem. For instance if you had a bad block around 25 put the first partition recovery partition to 30 MB. Then you can enjoy flashing ROM's again without the NAND problem. I have this solution working now.
Secondly, another simpler way is to use an Android SD ROM to bypass the corrupted block on you internal NAND now and forward into the future.
For more information about bad NAND blocks and to figure out if you have them and where they are go to:

We'll thank you for your fast answer. I tried various sizes of the partitions but none worked for me. I now got a error msg in H Boot "A unrecoverable error occurred" and the phone shots down. Also I don't get any of the "bad block" errors in my recovery log when erazing and re-installing a ROM.
I hope you can help me out
Can I use a SD Rom and boot it via H Boot?
Edit 2: So now after flashing a ROM and rebooting with Clockwork Mod it starts himself, than shuts himself down after a few seconds with the HTC Logo, than boots into H Loader... and always the same error message: "A unrecoverable error occurred, rebooting to Bootloader"

I now reinstalled everything with the American Android starter Kit, installed CLK 1.4.0.1 & RUU 190 _ 5 image (190 system, 5 cache) and tried to flash a ROM.
ClK Fastboot stops saying:
fastboot_init()
udc_start()
-- suspend --
What can I do now?
Yes I already tried to wipe dalvik cache, format boot.... I think the problem must be somewhere else...
Please help me!!
Well it seems that I fixed the problem... I found a old Backup from a new flashed ROM in Clockwork Recovery. I flashed that and my phone did boot again.
Cannot understand what happend. Is it possible that moving the ROM files to flash on the sd card can corrupt them?

got the same problem only thing that helped me was to remove all and reinstall it again from the beginning with task29
Need some advice, phone running NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-V2.7, backed up using CWM and tried to flash nexus jellyBean by changing partirion to 400mb, phone would not boot passed cyanogenMod screen, wiped system changed back to 250mb partition and restored system but now phone will not boot passed ICS screen, have tried reflashing ROM but still same problem, any thoughts please.
I believe I should have said that the phone is in ICS animation and that is it, cannot get passed this, have tried everything apart from dropping the phone in a bucket of water. Have cleaned out everything but the restore will not work.
Is there a solution?
IMO you should try a fresh installation of whatever ROM you want: wipe everything(including microSD, but before do a backup) and install it from scratch!
Good luck!

This is getting very frustrating having checked dozens of posts cannot find a logical solution, tried every possible solution I can find. I can get into all features of system,2.08HSPL shows, CWM, MAGLDR, usb screens okay, in short everything okay bar cannot fully load any ROM past animation screen, have tried task 29 but will not load RUU just sits at HTC with bar and the has communication error. Can the the phone be bricked when all functions are available? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Can you run SD roms past boot anim?
Have you performed a NAND check from MAGLDR? Might be bad NAND blocks.
Well guys after hours of trying to sort this out I have come to the sad conclusion the phone is stuffed which has left me depressed, I have tried:
Restore from my original backup all loads good but does not bootup
task 29 (error 262) does not seem to recognise windows sync
Tried loading from cd using nbh but tri-colour boot loader will not search for file
It is a shame as I can get into all the bootloaders which people tell me should load but no luck
Thanks for your help HD2 goodby

you're probably using too big an SD card, is it bigger than 8gb?
If so, put the LEOIMG.NBH file on an 8gb or smaller card, and get into tricolor, it should load.
Yes I am using a 16gb card, in the meantime I have managed to restore the phone back to ics nexus v2.7, not sure how I did it but in case anybody has the same problem here goes'
I had to get back to WM 6.5 no matter which ROM I tried could not get the custom RUU to load, (probably due to the sd card size) but I noticed I had a custom RUU sitting on my desktop (not sure why there but probably from past messing about) as a last resort I loaded this and bingo within a short time windows loaded up and from there reflashed ICS and restored from backup, working perfectly what a relief. Goes to show ignorance sometimes wins. Details of the custom RUU used.
LEO CUSTOM RUU
[email protected]
File 1.1.0.0 921KB
This worked with the 16gb card, I would like to go to jelly bean but am I pushing my luck. Can you just reload CWM with a 400 partition?
Have a nice day

I had a problem with that one, so i decided to use this one:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1584160, and i think that is working much better than Nexus.
Can someone please help me? I have a Samsung focus that was recently acting up.. Games wouldn't open etc.. so I decided to reset it.. After I reset it.. Its now stuck at the Samsung logo after resetting.. I am guessing that I need to reflash it.. If so, I need to make sure my battery isn't dead. Does the Phone charge while showing the Samsung boot logo?? Help Please..

Alright, heres what I did.1. Rebooted in*CWM2. Wiped data/factory reset3. Wiped cache partition4. Wiped dalvik cacheAt this point I couldn't reflash because I forgot I couldn't access my SD card, I kept getting the "e:can't mount /sdcard" message whenver I went to install zip from sd card.5. Took off the back and pooped out the SD card and put it right back in. Seemed to work6. Flashed 2.07. Flashed kejar's sd card fix8. Rebooted through*CWMPhone starts up, do all the set up stuff, but still can't access my sd card or anything. Booted back into*CWM*just to see and was getting the "e:can't mount /sdcard" error again and couldnt reflash anything, so back to step 1.Here's a list of other things I have done since the original crap out a few days ago that might be affecting this.*1. Yesterday I tried reflashing 2.0 and it seemed to be boot looping again. So I just wiped data and cache partition and flashed 1.9.1 that I had on my SD card. Was having the same problems so that was the only time I tried it. Not sure if built in kernels might affect anything or whatever.2. After it seemed like I had a stable 2.0 again last night. I flashed blue*CWM*because I've had yellow this whole time. I also flashed EP1 radios through ODIN because I was planning on going to GG 2.1 (I was following your video dave! its awesome btw*).I'm not sure at what point I lost access to my SD card. Ive read a lot this morning about voodoo lag fix affecting things. Could this be a problem with what I've done?

Thanks for your help but seeing as your phone is an Android phone, I don't think the same process applies. But thanks for the effort, I have this baby up and running now.. I just had to reflash the ROM.. Thanks again :good:

If you have decided to reflash then use ROM provided by 'voluptuary' (3.10a). And moreover, to flash, it would not matter if your battery is getting charged. Just plug the device to your PC using the USB cable and flash the device.
Be VERY sure you flash the correct ROM for your phone. If you have a version 1.3, then ONLY flash 1.3 ROMs to it. If you have a version 1.4, then ONLY flash 1.4 ROMs to it. You can find the version number under the battery on the sticker. If you flash the wrong version of ROM to it, you will end up with a brick.
When having problems like this, I would recommend flashing the Stock ROM to it first to set everything back to normal. Then, if that works fine, go to custom ROMs if desired. Stock flashing will replace everything back to new settings, including spl, radio, etc... Some of the custom ROMs are truly worth flashing, FASTER, stable, nice features.

I know I had 3.05a and reflashed 3.10a Clean Rom.. It works great now... I remember I use to have problems with the 3g but not after reflashing it works great
