Please read this whole post before clicking on links.
Yes, and apparently you never read mskips thread which was posted in the guide you used. Check this link out to flash a radio via sdcard
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
If you can get into boot loader mode you might have a chance to save the phone. Have you tired Task 29? It'll erase everything on your phone (besides the radio)?
Also please provide me with the link to the thread where you got the radio from.
If you need some help hit me up on gtalk using your google account. ldgarcia4283, i'm gonig to walmart but i can chat on gtalk.

*SOLVED* Not sure if my g1 is bricked or not ???

Hello first of I sincerely apologize if I'm doing anything wrong which I probably am but I am desperate. I may have bricked my g1 my phone is rooted w/ the jf cupcake 1.51. I was attempting to update to the hero rom and I rooted the haykuro spl first I rooted it in sd card renamed update.zip wouldn't work then I remembered all updates I rooted were just renamed update. So I renamed it the ladder and it worked but when I rebooted it kept goin back to the bootloader screen so I went to fast boot and when it loads it says "SD checking...loading...(dreaming.zip) no image nxt line loading...(dreaming.nbh) no image or wrong image" then it repeats the 1st 2 lines and I hit back 2 go 2 fast boot i get <camera step2> HBoot Mode,<send> reset device, <action> restart to HBoot, <menu> Power Down. I read another post where it says it's maybe not booting cause it doesn't have an image to boot so if this is the case how can I put a image on the phone to boot it ? Also when I turn it on normally my pc recognizes it in device manager under computer ACPI Uniprocessor PC...Please help some one and again if I'm breaking any forum rules please forgive me
hmmmm, sorta new to all this but here an idea... load your orignal rom as in the jf 1.51 to your memory card and of course rename it to update. power on using the home and power button then perform a wipe "alt-w" then apply the update "alt-s". let me know if it works. also you will have to apply all this to your memory card from another source other then your g1... please let me know if this works
Um could you explain your problem more clearly and in a more organized fashion? Thanks
Hey guys thanks for the interest but I just fixed my own problem I pretty much have to do the jailbreaking process over but atleast my phone is opperational thanks for the input and I see where sum1 left solution to what I may have used but all is good and I don't have 2 go sumwhere and cry lol
Oh one more quick thing to anyone who has updated to the hero rosie ui...I already had the updated radio on my phone so I started at the hero spl but when I rooted and did the "alt+s" I ran into my problem. did I do sumthin wrong or is there a problem with the spl ?
Thanks
cool, glad your g1 isnt bricked. perhaps a clean wipe is needed first. alt-w??? maybe
yea perhaps not really sure what went wrong but I'll do more homework b4 I try again but it looks like you just have is downgrade again.

Can't get CID for goldcard

I flashed the wrong recovery for my mytouch3g 1.2 and can't get past the mytouch screen the phone was already rooted. I was updating to a new recovery and realized after I flashed it was the wrong recovery. I can still boot into fastboot mode but I am locked from uploading the correct recovery. So I need to make a new gold card to root the phone again to flash the correct recovery but I am unable to get the CID# to make a new gold card is there another way to accomplish this? I was testing a new ROM when I flashed a the recovery that's way the phone wont boot.
If you posted this in the correct thread you would get more responses.
I moved it to General for you because this has nothing to do with the development of roms.
Im in the same boat - Someone help?
I asked a friend to let me borrow their android phone>> I installed terminal, popped in my SD card and pulled the CID. --- Know anyone with an Android phone? My best solution for ya.
Did it work for you?
Yes, I installed terminal on my friend's phone from Market - booted her phone with my SD card, ran the cat command and pulled the CID. --- Had even more fun getting the Hex formatting to work on my Gold card... but I finally got my phone up and running again. Good Luck and if I can help let me know. the unlckr GoldCard instructions were the most concise. Then Amon_RA's posts were the best.

[Q] What can I do? (Stuck in Fastboot)

I was using the new HTC Gratia Rom that was posted in the development forum, was restoring some apps with Titanium Backup manager when my phone rebooted, then it got stuck in a boot loop. I wiped it and rebooted again but no joy, stayed stuck in the loop.
Anyway, I recently installed a new recovery image, one of the ones for jailbreaking the PS3, so I have no USB access. Also it has a few extra options for wiping than the Amon RA recovery, and I guess I shouldn't have used the format boot option! Now on bootup all I get is "FASTBOOT USB", though I can still get into the psfMod recovery image.
That isn't much use to me though, as I stupidly deleted my nandroid backup and the update.zip file from my SD Card earlier while tidying it up a little bit. I don't have any other way of accessing the SD card and attempts to push another recovery image (with USB access) have failed.
I've also tried to install RUU's, both a T-Mobile UK one and a WWE one. That results in the following error: "ERROR [140] BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR".
I guess because the current image version is: 3.31.110.1 and the RUU is only: 2.73.110.26. I don't think there's an RUU of this version available, from reading it sounds like it was an OTA, it's not something I installed myself, T-Mobile sent me this phone recently after my screen stopped working properly.
If you've managed to read this far without falling asleep, any suggestions would be welcome hopefully not just that I should buy a card reader cos I could do with getting my phone going again asap.
You got access to another phone which uses a micro SD? Could use that to put the zip onto the card.
Making a goldcard springs to mind as well
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
Thanks for the tip, I had considered this already but I thought my brothers Legend (he doesn't live close) was my best bet. Turns out I had access to an N95 that did the trick
same problem
im a complete n00b
screen got replaced last month. new software was installed im guessing.
tried to use the tmobile ruu's to repair. there isnt one i can use though.
tried putting an engineering spl onto my sd card and using fastboot not really sure what happened there but it did not work.
does anyone have the appropriate update in zip format. not sure how i will get it to work but im trying all the things i read.
i do have backups but im not really sure what to do with them.
other than htc has anyone ever created an ruu?

What is the problem with urs exactly?
the problem is that im stuck in a cyanogen boot loop.
i have access to the generic fastboot only. therefore i have no ability to repair my phone from within the phone itself.
my phone is currently on hboot 1.76.0007.
i thought i had flashed clockworkmod. but for some reason or another beyond me it has disappeared.
the version of android i have running is 2.1, the tmobile version. the update number is 3.31.110.1. i understand that is the perfected spl version.
i have tried to fix using the ruu files. but i understand that the version on my phone as an ota update. therefore no ruu is applicable at this time.
i have tried many methods mentioned in various forums with no success.
thanks for responding to my post so quickly.

Problem solved now
and the solution was so obvious............
...and what was that obvious solution? Because I'm facing a similar problem...
Thx in advance!

Firstly its "ROM" not "room".
What do you mean "with triangle" ??
Which HD2 do you have and which ROM did you try flashing?
Can you get into tri-color bootloader mode?
Sorry i post my thread quickly. Yes i tried to flash a ROM, i have HD2 512MB. I tried to flash a 3.14.405 rom. triangle - i can get in tri-color bootloader mode, but when i try also flash original rom there is no result, it crashes on 9 or 17%. Triangle is a sign when i switch on a device, i believe it means ther eis no windows/rom on device

your device is not bricked... get into bootloader and do a task 29 (LOOK IT UP)...
Then start from scratch... Magldr, then whatever ROM you want.
Can you explain me? Please step by step... Thanks in advance

Possible fix stuck bricked hd2 radio no rsa information
Please read the whole post first sorry about the mess it is my first post thanks to everyone here on xda who came up with everything i used to do this There is guides for this xda has a lovely list of tmous roms if you are on t mobile in the us http://www.xdafil.es/index.php?path=HD2/TMOUS/
i would start with the RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.02.531.MASD_S__Radio_Signed_15.29.50.07U_2.06.50.04_TeleNav-5.5.42.zip
extract the .exe file if it has one than extract the RUU_signed.nbh from the .exe file using win war or 7 zip than rename it to LEOIMG.nbh and place it on a newly formatted microsd not a microsdhc and i had problems with anything over class 4
place it in your phone and hold the volume down button and power button as loading comes up let off volume down power button will start the flash(i was only able to do complete flashes in the freezer if not it would hang or get radio errors)
i also had a tmous which did not want to flash the radio i would get an an error and rsa fail it sounds crazy but i wrapped it in plastic and stuck it in the freezer for a while before and during the flash this was the only way i could install the radio and actually see rgd information on boot screen after this first one you will have an old test rom with an old spl you cannot change to hspl from here i also was not able to go straight to 2.10, i had to step up from RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.03.531.6_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.50.23_3_Test.zip, to RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.03.531.6_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.50.23_3_Test.zip the same way i did the first one,hard resetting after each one and let it open windows completely to know it is working. than i believe there is an hspl3 file somewhere out there with all thanks to DarkForces Team HardSPL3 by bepe and Cotulla i will try to attach it that will work with spl 2.02 wich you should now be on now you can download your radio in the master radio thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
i also just renamed the ruu_signed.nbh to LEOIMG.nbh and ran through sd i seem to have problems through usb and i was trying to be careful with the radio
once you got the radio you want you could flash the rom preferably running task 29 before or get yourself magldr to install through nand i also stuck my laptop an the freezer with the phone to get wp7 completely installed i did all this mess with a phone that had a broken screen i think there is like thermal compound over the processor to the case that is not on right and overheats when not in the operating system like a crappy old laptop with its fans full of stuff trying to install xp. and while a stock rom was being installed the usb was pulled during the radio installation i hope this helps i belive i saw one post to stick it in the freezer out of everything that i think helped the most.i also notice i have to put it in the freezer at boot too sometimes or i will get a fatal hit error i think its just over heating..... i also have an hd2 which has never been opened before that i have never had to stick in the freezer it gets flashed quite abit right now running gingerbread on normal hd2 and wp7 dual boot android 2.2 on the one i had to freeze i hope this helps i was here for weeks reading reading i was stumped cus my first hd2 and g1 were so eazy i will update this post once i stop being lazy and open the phone again to replace the goop to see if that is the problem
Thank you for reading my jumble and thanks again to all you phone heads here on xda which without you none of this would be possible and i would not have wp7 and gingerbread on my hd2 : D
I did a task29, flash a ROM succesfully, but now it' s stucked in HTC loading mode (Shows a HTC and nothing happens)

no luck at all I tried it once and have succesfull rom update, but it stucks when started with HTC logo, i tried second time and still no luck. Please help me.. all the time now also for original rom it says that this room is not for that device
original rom
you have to find the original rom shipped with your phone like here i am tmobile usa roms you have to find your carrier and country and start with one of the first ones i started with my second one RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.02.531.MASD_S__Radio_Signed_15.29.50.07U_2.06.50.04_TeleNav-5.5.42.zip and i kept getting stuck screens when it was hot turn it off maby find some silica gel (lil rocks that come with everything to absorb water) wrap it in plastic and throw it in the freezer does the back of the phone get real hot during flash
i have shipped original rom, still no luck
not the newest one
you need one of the first test roms this was the only way i got mine to work i had to go from 2.02 to 2.03 to 2.05 hard resetting after each install making sure they completely went in what carrier are you and where are you
Still stuck?
Download HSPL 3.zip from page 1,
Run the program;
a) select 2.08.000 (not HSPL) and you can flash stock (HTC) ROM with no damage or aftermarket changes on your phone.
b) select 2.08.HSPL and you can flash whatever you want
Install MAGLDR 1.13
Flash ROM
Make sure you follow the instructions EXACTLY. You can find these all over XDA, look at all of my posts if you need to.

Hi, thanks a lot. Only, SPL for original rom was 1.42000 is it ok to flash with 2.08.000 ? And why i should install MAGLDR 1.3 ? Thanks in advance,
Ok, now i dont understand anything. My original SPL was 1.42, i did Hardspl 3, after that tried flash original rom, process stuck on 96%, after that i tried once again stuck on 9% and says rom not compatible with device. And its like a hidden circle, my phone is acting like that all the time. I tried task29, tried all HSPL, also 1.4200, 1.66 and so on. Can anybody help me? my skype nick is martins.prieditis , maybe someone can assist me?
Ok now its fixed. I did a HSPL4, due to which original rom freeze on 0%, but 3.14 didnt start up on loading OS (white screen with HTC logo))or freeze on 99%. Than went back to shipped 1.42, stock room succesfylly flashed and did a SSPL_RUU. Now the only problem is that my LEO restarts when it gets hot. Any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks all for youre help (regarding my previous issue) !
Overheating??
As mrpoe stated in post 9, One of his phone had to be put in the freezer to be able to flash anything otherwise it will get hot and freeze.
Also the motherboard is most likely broken and you cannot get it to work without freezing or it will keep rebooting...
The best thing to do if you still have warranty is to Keep stock SPL and stock WM6.5 and return for warranty.
It will not function the same again.

[Q] Strange Behavior on TMOUS (Pictures Inside)

Hello to all of you guys, i have searched the forum but have not found a similar problem that I currently have in hands, so let me start to explain.
I have an HTC T-Mobile HD2
Model No: PB81120
SPL: 2.10.0000 8G XE
Stock Rom: Never tried to install anything or upgrade
The phone worked fine until some days ago it stopped working and hangs on boot, screen all white with the logo all messed up and stretched.
I did a softreset, an hardreset, i can boot it on Bootloader (the tri-color screen) and it detects usb.
So thinking this behavior was caused by its software I tried to reset it (soft and hard) but with no luck, if i try to install via USB the phone dont pass the 0% (and it shows no logo above the bar, only a white rectangle with some black lines), then I tried boot from the SD (8gb class 4) but it hangs on Loading... screen (searching the other threads i found that maybe I need a higher class card and if possible with only 4 or 2gb).
Running Task29 from toolkit or trying to install something from the USB does the same thing as trying to install the Stock ROM (freezes at 0%).
So my question is, am I doing somthing wrong, or do you guys have a solution for my problem? And sorry for my english.
P.S: If needed i will buy another microSD card.
P.S2: If you have any questions, I will try to answer them the best as I can.

Based on the second image, it looks like you're trying to re-flash WM6.5 on it, correct? FYI, v3.14.405.2 is not the latest version. I think that v3.14.531.0 is (and the filename is RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_3.14.531.0_Radio_15.42.50.09U_2.14.50.04_LEO_1.5_Ship.exe). I suggest looking for that (it's likely in a stickied thread in the WM6.5 sub-forum) and trying it. If that doesn't work, you might try downloading the latest radio and installing that first.
Another idea: could your USB cable be flakey, perhaps? If you have another that you can grab, try that.
If you can't manage to re-install WM6.5, try installing Android or Windows Phone 7 (see the respective sub-forums), instead. This guide can help you do it for Android, if you're interested.

Ty for the fast answer, I'm donwloading the ROM right now and later i will update with the results. I cannot install Radio only version because I do not have HSPL installed, and about the USB cable, I'm using it with other devices and it's working fine. (I will try to find another USB meanwhile cable just to be sure).
Update, after downloading the ROM I tried to install it via USB but the strange behavior continues, it does not pass the 0% and after some minutes the setup fails as shown in the album I posted in the first post
I'm not sure what more you can try if you want to keep WM6.5. I suppose that you could try to install HSPL, a new radio and even MagLdr, then try to install the WM6.5 ROM again. If it fails, then just install Android or WP7, I guess. I would just do that, anyways, since WM is dead. I would go with the Android 4.3 (latest version from Google) ROM that's in my signature, but it's up to you.

Are you trying to install HSPL through HD2 Toolkit, perchance? Have you tried the standalone version? A link to it is here. I would suggest right-clicking and running it as an administrator, just in case. After that, try using the HD2 Toolkit to repartition as MagLdr or CLK. If it's still a no-go, then I don't know.
OK, I just did a search and it came up with a slew of threads that possibly describe your problem. Have you looked at any/all of these and tried the suggestions in them?

I realize that not all of them describe your situation perfectly, but the replies may still be helpful. There are a lot of things to try. I would read each of them carefully and try them all (as well as check that, the ones that you've already tried, you did the right way).
