tried to follow the directions which say to hold down the red and green buttons then push volume down then up then wipe.
when i push the red and green buttons then volume down it take me to the hboot screen and asks me if i want to upgrade.
should i just be holding the red and volume up? then wipe and install the downgrade rom just i would flash a new rom?
need to get this figured out soon. my screen is loosing touch more and more now my home, menu, and back spots are not allways working
You should go to fastboot and flash the Ruu for 2.1.

this is what i'm tryin, but step 2 is what isnt working. when i hold power on and send buttons i get nothing but a upgrade screen.
should i be holding the power on and the volume up to start. then i come to a screen with a wipe setting and i can boot the downgrade zip from there
Could I also downgrade the hboot on a rooted Eris. Would this offer any advantage or disadvantage over the hboot that came with the rooted leak v3 rom?
just go into recovery mode, which i believe is by holding vol up + power, then follow the directions from there.

Hi there i have a sprint cdma hero I followed the instructions here:
theunlockr.com/2009/11/07/how-to-root-your-cdma-htc-hero-sprint-verizon/
Once i gained root access I typed on my pc via the android sdk
adb shell
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-heroc-v1.2.3.img
I then shut the phone off and press home + power to get into the recovery console so I can tell it to recover the modaco update.zip on the sdcard
Only thing is i never get to that screen, it just doesnt go to the "blue screen" I get a white screen with 3 skateboarding androids at the bottom
The only screen i have is a white screen with the following info
HERO XC
HBOOT-1.41.0000<HERO2000>
MICROP-0110
TOUCH PANEL SYN0104
RADIO-1.04.01.09.21

Any help would be appreciated
You are holding the power button while holding the home button.
Just press the power while holding the home button, don't hold the power button also.
Only hold home and press power...
And side question...
Why the modaco rom? that is very outdated...
Read the Rom wiki at the top of this forum and read through those roms.. Modaco abandoned the hero a few months ago..
Ahh i see i didnt know there were more mods, well the main reason im doing this is so i can get wifi tether to work. What would be the best rom out there for this? and overall best rom?
Personally I run the Fresh 2.1d because it was the first with a complete Wifi tether working.
But DamageControl or any of the 2.1 roms have it working, just read the changelog in each post.. They tell you what's working and what's not.
its easier to get into recovery if you hold volume down and press power on.
Hey thanks that worked perfectly I'm at another roadblock though. I got into the recovery screen, i installed update.zip (I used damageControl zip file) and now it just puts into a htc quietly brilliant screen then it looks like something doesnt load and then reboots. It loops the reboot continuously. Is there any steps i should take into fixing this?
Ok this is what i did
i got the RA screen like recommended by holding volume down then pressing power. But there is one more step i had to take, that was holding down the home button once in that screen.
From there i had the reboot problem, i went back into RA and did a wipe. I thought it was going to wipe my system and bring it back to pre-damagecontrol. Booted up and it was a fresh copy of damagecontrol with all my contacts still there
Thanks for the help guys
On NexusHD2-Froyo_V1.9G_NAND and i want to go to HyperDroidGBX-v10, and first i have to boot into MAGLDR113, and i can't boot into the green white blue boot because it always goes automatically to the MAGLDR111, ideas?
If anyone is looking for the solution in the future;
To place the HD2 into Bootloader mode, remove the HD2's back cover hold down the volume down key, now press in the red reset button under the back cover to the bottom left of the SIM, release the soft reset button but continue to hold the volume down key in until you are presented with the tri colour bootloader screen. To exit Soft Reset the device.

Why would you want to boot to HSPL if all you want to do is flash a new ROM? All you need to do is boot to MAGLDR and either go to USB Flashed or AD Recovery then flash the ROM? If you want to boot to HSPL make sure you hold down the volume button then power on.

Power off the phone and reboot into the bootloader by holding VOL DOWN + POWER until it boots to the white screen.
It should check the PC36IMG.zip and then ask you YES/NO to apply the update. Press VOL UP for YES
Once complete, Press VOL UP to reboot.
You are now unrooted!
ok i know all this but i cant see can someone give me a time line when it says update

This doesn't unroot your phone. This is the method to flash amon ra recovery.

O may be wrong buy I think a ruu runs just like a splash or recovery via pc36img.zip
sent from my HTC evolution running a freshly baked gingerbread with the 4gs in it
Yes you can use the ruu with the most recent update which will remove root. But it will not set you as S-Off.
Are you looking to turn S-On?
Edit: So it appears that even with clockworkmod recovery installed you can still access the stock bootloader by pressing and holding the up and down volume keys at the same time while pressing and holding the power button, then releasing the power button when the back light turns on, still holding the up and down volume buttons until it boots into the stock bootloader.
I found these instructions for the EVO 4G on how to install recovery-RA-supersonic-v2.3.img.
Will these instructions work for my Droid Pro?
Also, will recovery-RA-supersonic-v2.3.img allow me to use RSD lite or do I need a different image file for that?
Really I would like to just get back to the stock bootloader so that I can use RSD lite reinstall the stock sbf.
Hi All,
I've done lots of searching but I'm stumped. Any help appreciated.
Device - Verizon Razr M. New - came with JB.
Rooted using motofail2go JB Superuser. Worked.
Installed Safestrap 3.12 from here.
Was attempting to install EnergyROM following Cheezzzz's Guide.
The instructions don't match what my Safestrap menu looked like, but I thought I had everything going okay. But the ROM wouldn't install. Errored out right away when trying to flash, so I figured I'd boot back to stock and come back later. Now I'm bricked.
The only thing I can get is the initial Safestrap menu after holding Power & Vol up + Vol Dn. It appears for about 10 seconds, but neither the "Recovery" or "Continue" buttons are responsive, then it powers back off.
I'm sorry if this is something simple to get me to where I can RSD, but I'm coming from 4 years on different HTC models, so Motos are a new beast for me.
Thanks in advance,
John
Okay - so I was really just pressing/holding combinations of buttons and I managed to get to the original recovery. Got it in fastboot and am flashing with RSD now.
Edit: RSD flashed back to stock.
Did you have the device plugged in during all this? That stalls Safestrap because the phone is just doing a lazy boot to the battery charging graphic. Glad you fixed it though.

Do you remember the combo you did to get back to recovery? I am having the exact same issue.

Pwr+vol up+vol down until you get to recovery menu. Vol dn until you get to the choice you want, then vol up to choose what you want (vol up is how you select from recovery, fastboot, etc. You can only go down in this menu, not back up. If you miss your choice, just wait and the phone will reboot if you wait too long.) If you choose the recovery option in the beginning menu, you will get the red M and then an Android on its back. At the Android, hold vol down and tap vol up. This will put you into stock recovery.
That combo wouldn't work for me.
If I held down the vol keys and power button, nothing would happen. I tried holding it for three minutes, and nothing. When I let off the keys, the red would pop up after 3-4 seconds and than the SS splash would pop up again without working softkeys.
I came to find that if I started holding down the three keys right when SS splash popped up, I could get into the fastboot menu
