[Q] Help me to unbrick my HTC legend - Legend General

Hi Everybody,
I am a newbie, i was trying to install aliba's gingerbeard rom via rom manager, but i dont know what happenend and just my device stopped working, and hanging on cyanogenmod symbol,
Pls guide me to unbrick, i have read some threads in our XDA itself, i am not so clear from where to start to unbrick,
and i placed some roms in sdcard/update.zip via card reader and used the recovery screen (i knew that recovery is not clockwork mod) but the error is
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
and finally after retry 10 it is showing
E: Can't find /sdcard/update.zip
Installation aborted.
Pls help me to sort out this,
Thanks in advance

This should be in general (I wish I was a moderator, I'd do it myself)

No such file or directory
E: Cant find /sdcard/update.zip,
Installation aborted
Please note whenever i go to recovery screen i can see below in yellow letters

I see the same errors when I go into recovery, but I can still launch the fake flash version of recovery. Make sure the update.zip is the correct version.

Recovery is failing to mount your SD card. I'm not sure what the issue is

Did you try USB Unbrick?

year!
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=RTEY0Q97
get that adb.zip
then you should get some recovery files. Hmmm, how to upload??
pull recovery files to the "files" folder.
just run:
adb push files /
adb shell busybox --install /sbin
adb shell nohup /sbin/recovery &
you could get into recovery and flash rom again.

try searching on youtube

Put the Clockwork Mod update.zip and your backup or another ROM (as zip file) on your SD Card. Then press Volume down + Power Button. Afterwards select Recovery and wait until you see the red triangle. When you see the red triangle press Volume up + Power and wait until the Recovery screen appears. There you select Apply update.zip and your phone should boot into Clockwork Mod Recovery. From there you can flash a new ROM or restore your NANDROID Backup.

heres another way... go download this http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XBAOCSWZ
and find testimage.zip in it. Put it on your phone's sdcard renaming it to LEGEIMG.zip
off the phone and go to boot loader and start back from unrooted eclair...
the link above is form got it form this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=894465
but anyway... since you like e2 recovery so much... you did not do a factory reset... go do that and the loop should go away....

@spiritusrector
THANKS SOO MUCH lol...you just saved me 35 bucks

answer
go on youtube and search for androidreviews123....he has a guide on how to unbrick

[Q] Restoring Stock ROM

Hi all,
I am stuck at stock recovery. Can anybody help me to restore stock ROM?
Here is the story:
After I root GTAB manually according to that thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=859712, I tried to apply the GPS trick explained @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922692
Actually instead of using root explorer to place the files, I tried to replace files in zip file manually(via adb). It looks like something was wrong and device doesn't boot normally anymore. It just reboots to recovery instead. In addition, adb still founds device during recovery but "adb shell" gives an error saying link error. I assume "sh" binary was depending on one of the files I modified.
So, is there an instruction to restore stock ROM on the device.
My current recovery screen says:
Android System Recovery 3e
Samsung Recovery Utils
for BML
- Reboot System
- apply sdcard: update.zip
- wipe data /factory ...
- wipe cache
...
Installing Multi-CSC
All information related to flashing/recovering a device at recovery can be found at
http://www.thegalaxytabforum.com/in...flashing-euro-firmware-on-samsung-galaxy-tab/
I also had to use trick mentioned at that thread to get rid of blank screen after first boot:

Try 1click root & recovery script from maverixx.
It`s very useful for for rooting and reflashing recovery, and You will see if there is any error.
1. Download RootTattoo1Click_Recovery_2010-03-18_Mvx.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5835675&postcount=1
2. Extract rtattoo folder to C:/

If necessary Copy other recovery file to C:/rtattoo/sdcard and run RecoveryTattoo.bat again.

[Q] HELP! E:Error in/system/bootmenu/script/recovery.sh HELP !

Okay so im using defy. I flashed MIUI rom before using recovery>stable recovery. And then I reboot. After I reboot, the phone wont start and it just show the MOTOROLA logo.
And then I pulled out my battery and run 2nd innit (press volume down when LED light up). And when I try to re flash ROM and I try to enter Custom Recovery or Stable Recovery, it state below
" E:Error in/system/bootmenu/script/recovery.sh
(Result: No such file or directory) "
Can this be resolved or my defy is bricked ? Argh PLEASE HELP ME PLEASEE
Well... there is always RSDLite... Check General section - sticky threads for details
You might be using old boot menu, try to flash new boot menu and recovery, at least 5.0.3.1+.
You can go back to your original stock using RSD Lite, then root and install 2nd init. After it installs the recovery, download the latest recovery (you can search the dev threads for this).
Hi, same problem here!
I instaled cm9 on my defy. Now when I try to turn it on, can't. Also cant open recovery, cause there is error: "busybox was not created in footfs". And when I open recoveri, it says: "E:Error in /system/bootmenu/script/recovery.sh (result: no such file or directory) Could someone please help me?

[Q] No fastboot only adb on TWRP

Hello
I think the phone is bricked but I'm trying anyway...
Only adb is working but i can't copy zip file on the phone
"failed to copy 'LG-G2_D802-StockMOD_v1-01.zip' to '/sdcard/rom.zip': I/O error"
It works for small files... great
Everytime I reboot in recovery mode it's like he lost everything on sdcard, even on / if I put a zip, nothing stay after a reboot
If I put CM in / for exemple and I try to flash it I've got :
Updating partition details....
E:Mount: Unable to find partition for path '/cm.zip'
Error flashing zip
Updating partition details....
If you can go to download mode, just go back to stock. In general section.
Can't back to Download mode :/

That's what I told the person to do in short he/she didn't respond.
He/she should update the thread whether he/she got it working by doing something or fixed it via service center. Others just try to help without knowing if it is needed or not.
First of all, i want to say i'm sorry to all of you.. especially for those who tried to help me by replying my thread. I'm sorry for being silent and not updating on you guys. I managed to figure it out the next day after i posted this thread before any of you replied and just kinda forget this thread- which is a bad thing to do. I'm sorry guys. I won't do that ever again.
With that out of the way, i'm going to answer all of your replies

I tried that, it didn't work. Either reboot to system or bootloader, it just went back to TWRP.. with the "Keep System Read Only?" thing.. acting like i just installed TWRP for the first time. Even when i chose to turn off the device, it came back to TWRP.

Didn't try that one, because as i said i've figured it out the next morning.

Again, sorry for that
Here's what i did to fix the issue :
1. After some more searching in the next morning (literally the next morning, few minutes before i gone to school), i stumbled to this thread post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522426
it says that if you "Put the phone under a strong light and longpress power and volume down, your phone will reboot in bootloader.".
So i tried that. I hold my phone right in front of my monitor, then hold the power and volume up to get into fastboot mode. And Voila, it worked. I get into fastboot without any problem whatsoever.
Somebody else also replied "Just hold the power and volume down for a long time and hold it in front of a bright light, something about the proximity sensor."
So.. yeah. Didn't really know how it worked out, but it worked. :silly:
2. After that, i just installed a different version of TWRP (This one specifically https://dl.wafuu.id/twrp/X00T/twrp-3.2.3-0-X00T-20181214.img which i got from someone in the telegram group) and just redo the HavocOS installing process. It went smooth, and i manage to boot the system without any problem.
Problem solved. Just like that. However, i think i know what was causing the issue.
When i was trying to install the GApps (before stuck in bootloop), i only managed to get to the part when i had to choose to either save my choices or not. After that it just went back to TWRP. I didn't know that it wasn't actually installed yet, because i thought it was installed already. Yep, that was my first time installing GApps and i actually never seen the entire installing process. The way i know that is when i installed it after the fix (after i installed a different TWRP) and then saw the "installing things" part. Silly me.
So i think that was the issue. It was because i used an older version of TWRP which i got from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/asus-zenfone-max-pro-m1/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-x-t3787134 . Maybe GApps didn't support that version. I knew it was an old version of TWRP. Why i was using that version and not the latest one? Because when i tried to install the latest one from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/as...ent/recovery-unofficial-twrp-3-2-3-0-t3888110 , it didn't work on my phone. It fails to detect my internal memory (0mb).
I think that's all i can say. Again, i'm sorry to all you guys for the late respond. Thank you for replying my thread and trying to help me. I hope this thread will eventually help someone who faced a similar problem to mine.
*Last but not least, Shout out to Dyruz from the telegram group who provided me the working TWRP and tried to help me as best as he can. I would've not fix the issue this because of him. Cheers!
