Hi Guys,
Wondering if anyone knows where I should go from following what I've done to my phone so far. Ive downloaded the Recovery flasher and installed/open it successfully. However once i transferred a Hero ROM rebooted holding home + power, I got the triangle and exclamation point screen with only 3 options. I wiped it and then tried to install update.zip (what i renamed the hero ROM too as instructed). Now i cant get back to the recovery screen with all the options and what not??? This is probably such a simple question but I'm stuck!
Any help or guidance on the matter would be appreciated.
Thanks again.
did u installed the recovery flasher correctly , look thru this site here

I have tried to root my HTC Magic, using the Hero 1.4 ROM found on this homepage.
But something has gone wrong. i have followed the instuctions and done the same as all the other times i have root'et my phone.But now the phone won't start, it's "frozen" and only show the HTC MAGIC startup picture, and stays that way until i take out the battery.
Im getting more and more affraid that the phone is broken.
So i was wondering if anyone here could help me with this problem.
I can enter the recovery menu, and its possible for me to push a new update.zip file, and flash that and i have tried it but that dosn't help so all suggestions are welcome
Per
Home + Back when power up so you could get into fastboot menu. You then can flash your nandroid backup back into your phone.
Or get a ROM that worked for you in the past and flash it in recovery menu (update.zip).
I think you flashed the ROM that is designed for 32B board (HTC Magics with Google experience) in your Magic, which has the 32A board.
I did exactly the same thing! i first tried the HTC hero firmware from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531617
But after reading bachviet's response i got the other version from this thread:

So thanks Bachviet
Hey, thx for the answers, but i found another way of getting my phone to work again, kind off.
I used the recovery .img file found here on this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=530492) and then i just Nandroid restore, and it restored my phone back to when i bought it.
Now i only have a problem with the camera. it restarts my phone when i press the camera button in the menu. So think ill need to drop it off for repair, damn.
hi, here is an other method to resolve this problem.
I dont have sd card adapter, that is way I use adb to push a right update.zip and I use fastboot to wipe and apply the update.
(Sorry for my english)
1. put the right update.zip on "...\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\tools"
2. connect your phone using usb and start it (if is not)
3. open terminal in "...\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r2\tools" and type:
adb rmount (if is not success wait 10s and repeat it )
adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
adb shell reboot (at the same time hold volume down button)
4.type:
fastboot boot recovery-magic.img
Hi,
I'm htc magic owner. I have unrooted magic didn't flashed enything, i wanted to do a backup so I entered to recovery mode by pressing a home button and than turn on but all I can see it's just a triangle with sth inside - no options etc. What i'm doing wrong??
Hidden Android Recovery Image.
Once you are brought to that screen with the exclamation point inside the triangle...
Press MENU + BACK (or HOME) and usually; give it a second, the hidden Android recovery image should appear.
I've done it several times having played with so many STOCK T-Mobile Android devices. Good luck.
It didn't worked to me... I've done this combination and nothing happened .Still triangle with exclamation
Does it show a triangle with a ! inside it? If so, what device are you using, MT3G, Ion, Vodaphone or Rogers Magic?
HTC Magic form Polish Orange network. It's 288 Mb version it shows exactly what U saying triangle with an ! inside and anything more
Try this method from this site here

Look under 32A sapphire users
Hope it helps
Sorry in advance if it will be a nooby question but actually I am a noob in android.. So do I have to have my phone rooted to access this menu ???
You need to boot your phone into a modified recovery.
There is a tutorial for that in Polish. Have a look here: http://wiki.android.com.pl/ROOT_dla_HTC_Magic
Hi!
I ve a problem with my HTC Magic.
This afternoon i want to flash a net ROM on my phone. But i wanted to crate a backup first, so i booted the amonra 1.2.3 recovery image with fastboot boot recovery-RA-magic-v1.2.3H and every thing worked fine , created a back up with nandroid. then i restarted the phone after then i restated it. But id doesent start normaly. It shows th HTC Magic logan then a shot black and the again the logo. After that a warning sign is showed(I figures out that this is the recovery mode). if i restart the phone i always come to the recovery mode. No Fastboot or other.
When i select apply updete.zip in recovery mode i only get the message: no sginature ,verification failed and Cant read MISC(no space left). and thats it.
I have a HTC Magic 32A the SPL was that one with the 09 in the end.
So i have no idea what gone worng and if i can revover my phone.
Can anyone help me??

You should be most likely able to recover you phone.
If you take the battery out, then insert it again, then press the back-button and the call-end-button, it won't boot to fastboot? Maybe try volume down + power on, too? It sounds pretty weird...

Hi,
As you'll no doubt be able to tell, I'm a noob with custom ROM's. .
I have an LG P999 on Wind Mobile in Canada.
I have:
Rooted the device with SuperOneClick
Installed Super User (The Clockworkmod Version)
Installed Clockwork ROM Manager
Followed Instructions to flash Cyanogenmod 7.
Rebooted.
The phone now hangs as soon as the loading screen appears. The screen with the LG logo and blu-ish shapes.
I have tried Removing the battery and replacing it, then restarting the phone holding PWR and - Volume key.
This appears to run the vanilla recovery with very limited options. No sign of Clockworkmod Manager.
LG Support Tool cannot communicate with the device once it starts trying to update ( or perform update recovery).
I have a copy of Miui G2x 1.8.19, but cannot do anything with it.
Can anyone help me identify where I zigged when I should have zagged?
Thanks in advance.

My apologies. I searched lg p999, and this was the forum which returned. Guess I'll keep looking.
Hello, I own a Lenovo A6010, I recently tried to install a custom rom from a forum in this website, as i am newbie to all this, I think i screwed somewhere. Now my phone is stuck on boot screen. I cannot even start my phone in recovery mode or the menu that takes you to recovery mode.
Before flashing i had taken a backup of the dalvik cache and system and data and all those options available in the backup option in twrp which kept on my pc. Now i dont have any idea what do.
I even downloaded the stock rom of my phone from some website, but it was available in a rar file.
When I connect my phone with a cable while pressing the volume down button the same boot screen pops up and my computer starts to install device drivers. I think my phone can be brought back to normal, but i don't know how.
can someone please help me with some suggestions on what to do with my brick.
Thanks in Advance...
Warm regards
Do you have twrp installed? And by what method exactly did you try to install the custom rom?
Edit: Nevermind. Didn't realise this was a year old thread
