Follow the "HOWTO Flash the Tattoo" guide, my friend.
what i know so far that i have hboot>fastboot and i need a goldcard.trying to make that goldcard with my friend's g1 phone,when i had to insert "adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid" into cmd i got "error: device not found".i think is because the g1 is on hard disk mode and should be in htc sync,my problem is that i cannot find from where to activate this option on g1.did anyone had my problem and managed to pass this phase?thank you.
Is USB-Debugging activated?

So basically I was trying to do a nandroid backup but must off done some thing wrong bc it's stuck at the Rogers logo bit I'm pretty sure it's not bricked bc I can acess the fastboot and recovery menu so does anyone have any suggestion on wat I should do!?
**one more thing Im not able to mount sd card when plugged on to computer it doesn't recongnize it...
Are you sure your USB drivers are installed and working properly? If your using XP it seems to ba a problem for some people. This is the absolute easiest guide for rooting/flashing your Magic, worked perfect the first time for me.

I don't know what had happened to my magic, but when i try to turn on it, it will not boot properly and stay at the HTC logo startup....
I know I able to factory reset the MAGIC, but that it will be very painful to me as those data will be wiped off...
Can any expert give me help? Is there anyway to solve this problem without losing all my data inside the magic??
are you on a custom ROM?
I am sure everyone will need a lot more info to help you.
so here is a basic list
1. Type (32A/32B)
2. Current ROM
3. Did you flash anything before it became that way? (SPL/RADIO/ROM/Theme)
connect your phone via usb (no need to mount) start the adb app with cmd and type 'adb logcat' you can see whats going on see if your getting errors
i flashed a rom and it took about 8 min to get to the home screen
I have a sapphire (32B)
With a Rav 1.???g recovery.
I tried updating my SPL but my phone didn't reboot after flashing now I get nothing. Did I brick my phone?
technubi : i think you did. But i could be wrong (i hope i am)
Hello fellow HD2 users,
I've got an HD2 T-Mobile UK. I've just tried my luck with HSPL, I've succeessfully installed HSPL using the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
However, when I copied the LEOIMG.nbh (1.48 offiicial rom) file to the micro SD 8GB card; and rebooted, things seemed ok untill it suddenly stopped the progress of flashing the ROM and gave me a Grey screen with the Error 00028002 "not Allow" sort of thing.
So I tried yanking battery out, rebooting normally, it displays a grey triangle with " ! " in the middle and then displays the 00028002 error then back to Tri colour bootloader, I noticed that the HSPL is gone and its back now to 1.42.0000
I even tried a Factory reset, it does the reset I reboot, but it still shows me grey triangle and same routine. I've tried everything now. This bloody T-mobile phone is just useless to me at the moment !
Can you please HELP !!! Thank you so much !
Regards !!
Ok found solution, I just had to install the official T-mobile 1.43.110.0 ROM from this link:
http://rapidshare.com/users/258XUJ
After just switching on the phone with microsd inside, I just plugged the usb and started the RUU and followed the steps and things are back to square one now.
not thrilled that it has been a nightmare so far to get a new rom on.
but at least I can use my phone with its basic functionalities. not gona push my luck again...
You cannot flash official ROMS from the sd because it replaces the SPL with a stock one. Presume it got half way through then decided the ROM was not for your device since it hasd replaced the SPL. Cooked ROMS are ok to flash from SD but for Stock use the RUU.
tell me it's working please.my HD2 from UK T-Mob is same "bricked" and in Slovakia is very very difficult to find somebody who can fix this....i think maybe only the HTC repair center
^
If your phone can load up into the boot loader (tri-color screen) your phone is not bricked.
Deeper Trouble:Same error,but cannot use USB!!!
Guys,
im in even much deeper **** now.I accidentally tried flashing a stock ROM via SD card and now ive gt the same ROM code error.What makes this worse is that my Vista computer is not recognizing any USB connection when i connect my HD2 to the computer.If i need to flash a stock rom via RUU wrapper to get through this stupid ROM code error, i need a USB connection at the first place...which IS NOT WORKING NOW!!!...im sitting duck here guys...i really really need your help on this one.im extremely frustrated and helpless.thanks alot...
When u say USB not working, how do you know?
Put phone in bootloader, connect USB cable,,, on phone does "serial" become "USB"? If yes then just run the flash.

i followed the downgrade procedure and successfully downgraded to 1.31.405.5... but when i get to step2 on the root procedure, it just gets stuck at the exclamation point screen...
i have hboot 1.01... could this be the problem?? how can i solve this?
i need root access because i want to install the official CM mod... i hope someone can help me...
thanx for reading...
ok here's whats happening..
step 1 on rooting procedure seems to finish well..
step 2 it says error:device not found
anyone can tell me what im doing wrong?
Make sure you are in recovery mode aka the screen with a ! inside a triangle
Also make sure you are running HTC sync 2.0.33 or older otherwise it won't work
i did all that still my device isn't detected... seems like my legend isn't detected when on recovery mode... anyone knows how this can be done?
also my goldcard is at mmc0.. is that okay?
That should be no problem as long as it's been formated since the goldcard aka your SD card should be blank to do step 2.
also did you downgrade to 1.31 before starting?
what rooting guide are you useing?
First, it would be nice to know what kind of tutorial you're following.
Then, I had some similar issue when I wanted to root my Legend. My windows Seven won't recognize my phone in recovery mode. In order to make it to do so, I had to :
- uninstall HTC sync
- install ADB (and do the stuff in the PATH variable)
- then put my legend into recovery mode
- Plug my phone when in recovery mode
- Then re install HTC sync
Now my legend is recognized by my computer, even in recovery mode.
Have a try and tell us !
Hi! im follwing the Unlockr guide...
@50-3
yes i downgraded to 1.31.405.5
@Greedybro
i'll give it a try, THANX!
Is it 64 bits Windows?
Sent from my Legend using XDA App
another thing to try is removing the HTC drivers from device manager then install HTC Sync 20.0.33 then try
also usfull adb command is "adb devices" it will tell you if your device is seen a lot easyer then waiting for the step2 script to say no devices
@sckank - 32bit windows xp sp2
@50-3 - no device detected when i use adb devices on recovery
step 1 finished but i get 2 fail messages
writing 'zip' .. INFO adopting the signature contained in this image.... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote; 12 signature veryfy fail)
i might not be actually stuck at step2... coz step1 is giveing me errors... i hope someone can help me...
There is an alternitive way to do this i have not tryed rooting use this method but possible work head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=698404 grab the files follow the guide you should be able to do part 8 and 9 without doing part 7 (step bat file)
@50-3
isn't it only for rooted legend?

SOLVED! my gold card got corrupted i think so i had to redo the gold card procedure...
thanx a buch for all your comments!
Hi there,
I have the following problem:
My cousin bought a brand new Magic 32B Vodafone.
I flashed it to latest CyanogenMod 6 for Magic.
The phone still has the Factory SPL + Radio on it,
i just put a custom recovery on it and flashed CM6.
I did the same with my Magic 32B, works fine since a year now.
It worked fine for about 2 weeks, with CM6 running stable and everything.
then suddenly after a reboot of the phone just went to black screen,
no vodafone splashscreen shows up or anything. It vibrates and then does nothing.
It doesn't show up at "fastboot devices" and "adb devices" shows no deveice either.
When i boot it up with volume down + power pressed (to get in fastboot) it doesnt vibrate (like when it works normally), but screen stays black.
I cant get in recovery either.
anyone ever had this problem? of course i googled for this problem but none of the "black screen" search results described my problem ..
is there a way to autoapply defaultrom (SAPPIMG.nhb) put on sd card (may have read something about that some time) or any other solution to this problem?
is this due to flashing the custom rom or maybe a broken device?
what are the chances to get it back from warranty?
i very much appreciate any help!
thanks
Sounds like the screen broke. If you install ANDROIDSDK you can probably grab screenshots to see what the phone is doing. That will allow you to flash the stock sappimg to get back stock and send in under warranty for repair.

Does not work, phone doesn't respond to anything
ok, I'll just have to sent it to warranty then, and hope for the best
thanks anyway
did you ever fix this?
