For sure I am f***d. Today I decided to root my hero using the guide showed on villainrom website. My hero runs 2.1 and yersterday I updated it with the official release that gives G calibration. I've installed Htc sync 3.0 so that I will not need to install any driver for sdk(because I need sdk to root as explained on villainrom topic "how to root htc hero with 2.1). I downloded Gsmroot and made my hero recognized but adb. By the way, I pasted the content of tools folder in sdk in Gsmroot one. I ran cmd and runindos.bat. My hero rebooted one time and the second time nothing happened. I just got a picture of error (the red one with hero). I don't know what to do. Doing the update was a mistake? I AM I F****ED?

That red icon with hero is NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
All you need to do is reboot the phone with a button combination (can't remember which, but I think it's menu+volume up), and get rebooted. the phone is untouched.
Then do the process again. This red screen is what HTC put in front of the recovery screen, but it is nothing bad.
Will edit your title, as it's a little extreme.
I'm now on android system recovery meny.I'm triying to do a nandroid back up but it says "error, run nandroid-mobile.sh". Help please!
check your battery is above 30%
I did it. Yahooooooooooooooo! Free, at last!
One last question: how to flash FroydVillain 1.4.0-1.4.1 Hotfix? I know hat I must go to recovery mode but how to do it?
What a wonderful feeling!
Did you manage to get froydvillain 1.4.0-1.4.1 done in the end? If not - you flash it the same way as any zip when in recovery. Just make sure, as always, it is in the /sdcard/ folder.
Thank you Captain! I wonder how to install appliacatons on sd card now. Can you help me too?
There is an Apps2SD guide on here or Villainrom.co.uk. Link was in my sig.... forgotten where it has gone...
Edit: o its part of my complete newbie guide.
just curious...if your hero was broken how were you able to send from hero using tapatalk?

Basically, i used Unrevoked to get a Custom Recovery about 2 months ago, and since HTC released the Update for the HTC Wildfire, i havent been able to get on the Clockwork recovery screen. Every time a press recovery on the HBOOT screen, it takes me to a picture of a phone and a Red explanation mark. What shall i do ?
That's the stock HTC recovery which the update went back to. You just need to run unrevoked again.

Hey, I have tried this, do you know if it works on a windows 7 64bit operating system??
First off let me start by saying I now know what i did wrong. Next is there anyway i can fix it?
I didn't backup anything and then managed to erase everything... I have CM 6 but as of now all i can get is the boot screen. I tried recovery but that won't work becasue there is no backup. also Before I erased everything i managed to turn s on so now i have no way to turn that off correct? Im basicly looking for a way to restore my phone but if it cant be done then i understand. Right now I am using a samsung vibrant with Nero v3 voodo and understand how to install custom roms now
i have almost the same problem as you I don't know what to do I've looked everywhere.

What do you mean... erase everything? How?
Possible steps:
1. factory reset from H-Boot, see if it boots up normally, then re-root.
2. Install PD15IMG from development section, look it up.
Good luck.
Man, do I feel like an idiot...

We should've just stayed with the vibrant...
Which recovery did you have installed and which h-boot
Did you try seeing if you could s-off through adb? Im not sure if this will work but Download the files you need to get s-off from ur computer and put it on ur SD card via a card reader or some sort, after you get the necessary files put the SD card back into ur phone. Hook it up to ur computer and maybe you can s-off through adb if you can get ur computer to recognize ur phone. Then IF it works, download a rom via computer to it SD card and boot into recovery and flash. Let me know what happens if it works or not

Should have taken my advice from this thread.
I just went thru the same thing and couldn't restore any of the backups it just kept getting stuck on the flash screen. I downloaded the ice glacier rom on to a spare sd card and flashed it thru hboot recovery and it looks like that did the trick.
hi guys if you still cant get your phones working try mobiletechvideos.com, they fixed my phone , my phone wouldn`t do anything .good reliable service, yes its in texas.
Although you didnt create any backups, is it possible that someone can create a backup of a fresh ROM and send that to you?
youshoe said:
Just take the SD card and put a new ROM on it. Then go to recovery, wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalkik cache.
Then install zip from sd card and find it.
I like using Royal Panache 1.3.
I think it's stock Mobilicity ROM but no stock software from carrier. Good stuff.
MIUI and Cyanogenmod 7.1 are also good candidates.
I'm currently testing out ICS and you can test it out as well (but in your case, probably try a working one first =P) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1383629&page=1

Wrong, he just randomly revived a thread that last post was made in July 2011.

He revived quite a few of them, trying to market what I believe to be his product. Just look at his messages. Don't want to write the name of the product, since it appears he's scoring just for that.
I've reported his posts, but didn't see mod response yet.

So im no good on this whole switching your HD2 to android. and awhile back i tried and never made it. i was wondering if someone could give me a step by step instructions on what to do, like how to flash a new Windows mobile on my phone, then to put what theme or what android version to put on there. if anyone could give me any help it would be much appreciated. I will take your opinion on your preference of a good windows mobile mod to flash and same with an android. Please help! Thanks so much.
Bump. I would really like some help.
Go to this thread read the 1st page then download the Rom after you unzip the file open it and read the Tutorial. It is a step by step guide you cant go wrong

Yay! thank you!
Ok so, ive been going through the steps to get android and everything flashed onto m phone, but one problem occured. After i got RUU flashed, i cant get MAGDLR to work it. when i boot up the Rom update Utility it simply says " error [208]: file open" update utility cannot open the requested file. any help?
BTW i did everything step by step, First i did the HSPL, then Radio ROM version 3.27.4.3, then i try to flash RUU but it just gives me the error.
ignore my post just above this. im lost, ive gone back and tried re flashing the radio to see if that caused the problem, but it didnt change anything. Any ideas?
If you have an hd2 then you should not have to changeover radio it should already be 2.15.50.14 which should be good enough

ok but why cant i get RUU to flash? or is that the radio?
i know im a newbie.
What version of magldr do you have
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
i downloaded the newest 1.13.
but when i run the RUU.exe (rom update utility.exe) from the folder it gives me an error.
did you unzip the file before running it
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Yes i did. I unzipped it to my desktop.
Did your phone connect to the pc first before running magldr
Sent from my HTC HD2 blue topia using XDA app
yes. at least i believe so when i first tried it. ive gone through several attempts.
Try it this way power off your phone and hold down the volume down button and the power button to turn it back on it should bring you to a multi color screen then it should say USB at the bottom if the pc sees it if so run magldr
Sent from my HTC HD2 blue topia using XDA app
shoud i skip trying to use the rom utility update?
Also maybe my download is missing something, but there is not actual exe or program called Magdlr. its just the folder called magldr
this is really getting ridiculous, like ive followed the step by step instructions. its the RUU.exe that wont run.
BUmp for help.
Erase and redownload
Sent from my HTC HD2 blue topia using XDA app
ive done that about 16 times now. ive re downloaded the CORE cell, and the DFT LEO MAGLDR 113 files. ive been at this for like 6 hours straight and there has been no improvement. nothing has changed.
Hello,
I've just sold my phone and am due to send it out tomorrow. The buyer would like it unrooted and on the stock htc sense. I followed an unrooting guide which then flashed back a G2 unrooted rom.
Can anyone point me to the direction of the correct HTC rom, RUU or pcimg100.zip or whatever it's called or some method which I can flash the stock rom before I send it?
Thanks very much in advance,
Kris
Well first off stock does not have sense...its asop android....so if u want stock sense u will need the z rom from euro
Well when i say stock i meant the stock HTC Sense rom. Ive tried 3 RUUs including the 566666 one and they all give me an error 155. I try to plug the phone in when its in hoot and the device "Android 1.0" has no drivers.
I also found a 1.34 pc10img.zip file for the 1.34 but hoot doesn't see it.
Ok i tried to re-root (from being unrooted) and I'm now stuck at the HTC logo.... What the heck can i do in time for tomorrow
EDIT: I'm in clockworkmod recovery, can someone point me in the direction of a .zip I can flash for the stock 1.34 or 1.72?
Thanks would be a great help.
EDIT2: Phones bricked... *mumbles about little help from xda*
Cant be bricked, what can u do with it right now? And its a dz correct?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
I can't do anything with it, except charge it. It won't turn on, it won't go to recovery, it won't go to hoot it won't do anything. Nothing on usb either and to my knowledge no usb = no commands.
Last time i checked ti had s-ff, root, cid unlock the standard stuff..
Is the led on indicating its charging?
Dz or g2?? Which hboot was on it?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Yes the led is on but stays on forever even after I pull the plug.
Pull battery for 5 mins, if u put it back in does the led come on? What color?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
I pulled the battery multiple times tried vul down and trackpad etc. When ti comes on its orange solid, but i left it charging for 6 hours now its flashing orange and i don't wanna tough it incase this means anything different.
I'm not sure if adb works on unrooted devices, seems like this is the only way to go. Try to boot the recovery or bootloader via adb on your pc. Just look for the how-to's

Hello everyone,
This is my first post and I'm already asking for help
I have had my rooted Click/Tattoo for about 15 mouths now, yesterday I updated my recovery and flashed the wrong one by accident (I flashed a Wildfire one not a Click one).
The phone boots into Android 1.6 but won't let me flash a new recovery either on the phone terminal with Super User or on my PC with adb. Also I can't flash using Fast boot as my phone has decided to turn Security back on.
I have no Idea what to do, as I have a basicily useless phone at the moment, please help
