Is my HTC Magic Bricked - myTouch 3G, Magic General

Hey... All (my first Post)
Ok tried most combinations to I guess unblock my phone .....
As it stands my computers do not see it Win or Mac.
Stuck in HTC logo boot while I tried to change to Hero21-radio-update-signed.zip to later install Hero_2.1-signed.zip Rom
Orange light come's on when charging and the blue light come's on when you press trackball then end/power button.
Am I to start shopping for a new Android Phone ???? .... HELP ...

can you boot into recovery or fastboot? try powering on by holding home and power, or the volumedown button and power, it it gets past the htc screen or mt3g screen (depending on if you have a magic or a mytouch) you ARE NOT bricked.

What about recovery? Home + power on
It sounds like your case might be like mine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=597666
Is that true? If so, maybe someone can actually help two poor souls with just one reply. But from all I found it seems like it is actually a brick and can't be revived.
fastboot remote: not allow, this is what it tells me when i try to restore a recovery image from fastboot. my phone is dead, i don't know what happened, i tried to restore the original firmware, as i was using hero rom, after reboot it was stuck on vodafone logo. now it does;t start at all, only in fastboot, connected on usb cable. is it bricked? what should i do to use the warranty and not have any problems? thanks!ps:. i have 1.33.0.0.10 spl
Can you get into the Recovery Image at all? Home and Back I think.

did you flash another ROM?
looks like its time for a hard reset. hold down the red button and press the reset button with the stylus without letting go of the red button. press up and it will reset the phone. remember, backups take space, but save you later =]

hopefully you did Hard SPL before Flashing if so you can relax your phone isn't bricked. to get it working again go to the tri colored screen by holding power and side camera button and while holding that tap the reset button on back. when you get to the tri color screen plug your phone to the computer and flash a different ROM that has been tested to work then your good to go hope this helps

[Q] flashing hd2 with win 7

Hey guys,
So I've decided to flash my mates hd 2 with win 7.
i downloaded the rom from the forum which has the loader (i think).
i watched the video demo on youtube and followed the instructions there.
when I boot up the phone after rom updater, I can't get into the bootloader! all I can see is htc logo and nothing happens.
What do i do? Have I bricked the phone?
Please help!

With the phone turned off, hold the volume down button on the side of the phone and press the power button. Keep holding the volume down button until you see the tri-colored screen (this is bootloader).
at this point i would suggest you flash task29, enter tri-colored screen again (bootloader), then flash magldr v.1.12, then let the phone boot into magldr, choose option 5 and flash wp7.
Hi,
I cannot get into the tri-colored screen now! thats my problem. I updated HSPL to *.HSPL, and tried updating the rom and this happens!
I have tried the reset method by holding Vol + and - keys with Power button, but that doent help too
how do i used task29 when i cant get past the HTC logo on the phone?

try soft reset. remove the back cover then press a blunt pointed object such as a pen or stylus into the reset button to the bottom left of the SIM, near sd slot, and release. The phone will then reboot. try to get into bootloader as soon as it restarts
hi, i tried installing the rom again, and i get some cpp error?
dont know why.
i tried reverting back to stock rom, installed it successfully, and now when I unplugged the mobile, it turns off. when i plug it in it turns back on and it loops at HTC logo i mean, I turns itself off and turns itself on.
why do you think this happens?
Hi,
The problem is When I plug in my phone to USB, it boots up shows a HTC logo, with
R 2.06.51.07
G 15.30.50.07 U
D 1.66.76641
written in red on left corner and holds on for a few seconds and turns off, and turns on itself.
end note: the phone only starts when I plug it to USB, else its a brick

[Q] Motorola Logo bootloop issue, another one...

Hi,
Was given a Defy by a mate who thinks he has bricked it and replaced it already. I’m hoping I can get it working again. Hopefully with your help this might be possible. 
These are the facts:
1> Current phone state: Motorola logo on screen and nothing else happens. I’m able to get into the bootloader(Power + Volume Up), but not able to get into recovery(Power + Volume Down)
2> Previous firmware version is unknown. All I know is the phone was bought through T-mobile UK.
3> My mate has tried to install various .sbf files(3.4.2-177 nordic Blurless Thread & 3.4.3-11 UK Tmobile Blur Thread & 3.4.3-3 UK Tmobile Blur Thread & 2.51.1 UK - Blur ROM Thread) onto the phone and still the phone stays in the same state.
So I don’t know where to start or what to try really, as I assumed all I would need to do is install a previous .sbf. I read it could have to do with the battery being empty, but I have a external charger and know the battery is full.
Any advice would be great, please help. I have also read other threads, but they do not have the same issues and are able to get there phones working past the point i'm at.
Thanks
same thing happened to my defy today, when I decided to try out CM7 while on a 3.4.2.117-005 nordic. Basically it's F'd up!
When I tried installing CM7 beta 6 zip from recovery, it got installed, but the phone was too damn slow to be used, So I flashed 177-005's sbf again and after completion it got stuck in boot at the Android Text.
Then i flashed with a 3.4.3.11_BLUR_signed sbf and still it's stuck at the Moto Logo.
please help someone, its my new phone..

Thanks ! It worked. My cell is back in biz, and I can't express how happy I was to see that Home screen.
Now I'm flashing 3.4.3.11 after which I'll install CM7, hope it wont make system slow this time.

Yea, I have tried it every configuration possible and no Android Robot appears… I have even asked my mate and partner to do it to make sure it is just not me…
Could this be the first official “Bricked” Defy? I hope not, was worth a try and assume this is why my mate wanted to get rid of it….
Thanks again for all the advice.

@jdearauj just a curiosity, what operative system you use on your computer?
i asked you, because if you have win vista, rsd-lite not worked always very well with this OS....if you have xp or seven its good!
endless bootloop M logo
ok maybe this will help...
quickly remove battery before it gets drained...
now do this,i call it the "monkey method"
>on my left hand i hold my defy without the battery in,
>press the volume up+power at the same time...
now i quickly slip the battery in w/ my right hand & stay a few seconds..it took me to the stock recovery-factory reset & it took me to stock SBF rom & ready to reflash cm7 again.
follow this,its all in here...

I'm using Windows 7, but my phone connects to RSD Lite without any issues. So no issue with the PC as far as i understand and can see.

Phone cannot turn on, flashing possible?

I just got hero from my friend and he asked me to repair it. He said, that he has installed som wrong program and he now cannot boot phone, it just turns on and displays HERO, nothing more.
I tried hard-reset but without success. Is there any chance to flash it with new firmware?
Thanks for help.
P.S. Sorry for my English, I am from Slovakia.
Power the phone off. What happens if you switch it on holding the home button and then pressing the power button (keep holding power).
Can you reach recovery?
Same thing happend to me you have to put the phone in to fastboot mode then use a official ruu should be on htc website if you type in htc hero.
