I have a HTC magic with HTC Hero ROM it was running fine. Until I tried to update redio using this http://android.modaco.com/content/h.../03-09-hero-roms-radios-in-update-zip-format/. After I download and update the radio. I can not boot the phone all its display is an icon with an box and arrow pointing to a phone. I attached my icon image. Please maybe somebody give me an idea. How to boot it back. Thanks in advance.

The radio images at modaco are for the HTC Hero. I was wondering whether or not this radio update would work on my Magic... Try looking in the development section for the newest original magic firmware RUU (it's the official HTC method of updating). This update contains a correct magic radio image (amongst other things). The RUU package should include a readme on how to apply the update. The screen you are seeing on your phone is the original recovery screen so at least we know that your device is not bricked!

Hi,
I'm on the same situation .... my HTC magic not boot. But on my case is impossible run the update menu.
how can I install the original Radio for saphire?
thanks for your suggestions,

This is interesting.
I was considering flashing that EUROPEAN radio to my spare phone (HTC Dream) to basically take the 50/50 chance to see whether or not it would actually register and comply with the device.
So, it's confirmed that this method DOES NOT WORK...correct?
Which radio did you flash again? I'll double-check the link. And which update did you attempt to apply? The 2.1 Hero version of the build...? As in the "enhanced" port. That won't be available for the Sapphire (32B) for a few days. Paul @ Modaco-ANDROID said he is working the kinks out, then fashioning an enhanced version for the Sapphire and apparently the Dream as well.

Hi,
thanks for your reply ... but now, my problem is recover the htc.
I try to entry on the Recovery tool and run fastboot, etc ... and nothing work's ....
thanks for your help

Hmph. That's not a good sign.

Not to say you shouldn't be on the optimistic side of this...but from what you've stated; sounds like you have just created a $300 paper weight! I'm sorry.
If you cannot boot into recovery, cannot run fastboot, and from what I understand you cannot power on your device into a normal loading...that's a serious set of problems. Potentially permanent ones.
NOW, all things considered...have you tried ADB? Can your computer detect the device to run ADB? If so, you might have some luck in that department to uninstall whatever you've done or possibly re-flash the appropriate radio and SPL.
Search tutorials. I cannot offer further assistance for your particular situation. It's in your hands now.

I'm in the same boat.
I'd be interested to find out what this screen actually is. I thought it might be a recovery image but adb devices does not return any information.
None of the usual key combinations to get to hboot or fastboot or recovery will work.
I have the latest rogers update ruu and will try to run that and see if it works.

Wasn't able to use the rogers updater as it wouldn't see the phone.
Spoke to HTC support who seemed not to know what the box with the arrow pointing to a phone screen meant.
They are collecting tomorrow and will re flash it for me.
Whether someone will be able to tell that I was flashing a new, apparently incorrect, radio we'll just have to wait and see.

radio
i have the same thing i tried to install a different radio on the cyn 10.1.1 rom and i had teh same recovery logo. i tried everything. i thing our phone is bricked. i called rogers and they will send me a new phone as i told them i used the rogers update tool. next month ill see if they will charge me for the damage or not.

My phone is back with HTC for repair. Initially they said they would re flash it, but now I understand that they are replacing the main board. It looks like the problem is pretty terminal!

I have same problem, is there any solution for this?

same situation here,any help?

For now there is no solution, maybe serial cable in blue led mode or jtag can help,
read about it in G1 section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591048
This problem is caused by failed radio rom update, I think JTAG will help, but problem is we dont have pinouts for magic. So if anyone have magic with water damage can help us finding pinouts for jtag.

Same problem , but you should go back and download your same SPL & Radio that came with your and go into fastboot and flash theme to your phone , then flash the correct recovery img for your phone model , and hopefully you are good to go , hope this helps .
PS : should be done through your PC , good luck

Magic with box.arrow problem cant go into fastboot mode!

Hello

Sprint HTC Hero rooting downgrade for rooting problem

I currently have the .6 software and I am trying to downgrade to .5 to root. I have been using various RUUs. Once I run it, all of them get stuck at the "waiting for bootloader" part and the black HTC screen is on the phone. What should I do?

Anyone, please?

bump.......

................................

I have also created a gold card successfully, but im still unable to get to the bootloader screen while trying to downgrade

Try using this one, worked great for me.

I figured it out... YOU CANNOT DOWNGRADE HTC HERO ON WINDOWS 7

is there another way to revert back on windows 7 or are we stuck?

Google "VirtualBox" and start reading.
Or, take the ROM.zip from the RUU and rename it HERC.zup and place it on the root of your SDcard, and flash using the stock Android recovery.
Or, enter all of the RUU commands by hand into ADB.
Your options are there.

Same problem
Same problem here. I have HTC Hero on Sprint. Ver. 2.1-update1 and can't root or downgrade. Anyone found a way to do this yet?

Does 'unrevoked' work on the updated .6 firmware? I thought it did not.

I am running Windows 7 and had no problems going from .6 to .5 with the .5 RUU. Usually, it would run once, then error, I would exit RUU and start over and it always worked on the 2nd time. I have done it 3 different times with success on the 2nd run of the RUU every time.

Yeah, I rooted it on windows 7 and tested the downgrade on win7 and NEVER once had a problem. maybe it's because I'm using ultimate?

Don't know if I'm replying too late to this but if you right click on the wizard and select run as administrator, the wizrd runs and it lets you downgrade with no problems

Same problem here. I have HTC Hero on Sprint.
Ver. 2.1-update1
2.42.01.04.27 baseband
2.6.29.ba77cf03 kernal
2.31.651.7 software number
and can't root or downgrade to a version that is able to be rooted. Anyone found a way to do this yet?

Have you tried to boot the Hero into Fastboot mode?
Turn your phone off
Hold the VOLUME UP button while turning your phone back on
Start the RUU
That makes it work for me.
Hope this helps.

[Q] bricked my hd2 but my computer recognizes it...?

so i flashed my phone with the wrong radio i believe but the strange thing is that my computer recognizes it. the doesnt turn on at all but i here the sound of a device being plugged in when i plug it into winodws. is there a chance its not bricked?

the sound doesn't necessarily indicate much.
what did you do? specifics, please?
can you get into bootloader?

i was trying to flash a stock rom and i guess it didnt work?

You may try and follow this solution, I suggested earlier. Click here
Let us know if it worked.

sorry i was vague, i was in a rush to get to work this morning and on top of it i was panicking. i flashed the stock image:
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
i tried that on a hd2 so i could flash hspl3 again and use wp7 on my hd2.
i ended up just sending it in, but if they send it back with no repairs ill try your method... i relly hope they just send me a new one though. i mean... i flashed a stock image to the hd2, so shouldnt they see no hspl and just the stock spl?

again, more details are needed.
like what type of hd2 do you have? if it is a us tmo brand, i believe it is bricked (as you flashed a .51 radio.)
if you flashed your stock rom from your sd card, hspl is removed. if you flashed over usb, and did not uninstall hspl, hspl is still there.
what i don't get is if you can flash a rom, why are you saying it is bricked? no offense, but each post seems to change the story (first it was a rom, the a radio, now you are flashing roms but sending the phone in, still don't know if you can get into booloader, but now you sent the phone in or is it in your possession???) and i am not following what you did, where you started or what is going on. maybe i am totally missing what you are saying (which is possible)...hope someone can help you.

i have the 1024 us tmous hd2. i tried to flash to a stock rom, forget i said radio. i tried to flash the .51 which i did not know would brick my phone, so i played dumb with htc and sent it in to get repaired. if they dont repair it i am kinda SOL because i flashed using usb and they will see it has HSPL. sorry, do i need to include anything else? i am just kinda a noob... sorry.

i swear i posted a response. hmm.
thank you for the details. your assessment of the situation is spot on; unfortunately your phone is indeed bricked. and likely htc will not know about hspl...or so i have heard from others.
curious, why did you send it to htc? did tmobile reject it? if not, and htc doesn't give you a new one, try getting it to tmobile (under warranty)- worked for me when the phone stopped working for unknown reason. good luck.

possible to make it back to work...?

G2 blank screen

So my phone just died on me today. It's turned on, but the screen is blank. I can't see anything, the signs on the bottom (home, menu, back, search) area all bright, but pressing them doesn't help either. I've pulled out the battery the sim etc, but nothing. It'll ring if somebody calls/texts/emails but I won't know who the caller is. I can't even pick up the phone unless I've the original headphone on (by pressing the play button) and ofcourse can't make any phone calls either.
I live in Canada, and can't return it to Tmobile, since I bought it used from USA this year. This phone was bought in Oct last year by original owner so still under htc warranty.
I called htc today and they took down my address and credit card number and asked me to ship the phone to them since it's still under warranty. However I rooted this phone with s-off back in January, so I'm not sure if they'll find out. If they do they will charge me up to $39 for diagnosing the problem.
I tried going to recovery mode by holding volume down button and pressing power, but still blank screen. Is there anyway to un root it?
Do you guys think I should send it in for repair/exchange? Any advice on this will be appreciated. Thanks

If you can't fix it brick it for sure.
I'm gonna assume the phone is still working and able to access h boot and u just can't see the screen
Before you do this I recommend you to do everything you can to fix it.
Did you flash the hboot engineer?
Can you connect to your comp and access fastboot?
If you can't...welll then if I were u ill put a radio on sd card name it pc10img then click voulme up(assuming its flashing radio) (in hboot btw). Then pull out the battery to brick it completely.
well that's just my opinion

What's hboot engineer?
I tried to access the phone and memory card by connecting to computer, but can't access it.
How can I put a radio on sd card when I can't access the drive? Is there a way to do it? And last, how does bricking it completely helps? Thanks

Does anybody know if it's a problem with the screen or something to do with the software? I've been able to hear the beeps while dialing random numbers after pressing talk/dial number (not that I could see what I was pressing), so I'm guessing it's the screen, but not sure.
Can somebody tell me using their G2 that after you connect it to your computer, approximately how low on the screen is the option to access the memory/phone drive? I remember that the first option was "Charge only" but can't remember the rest of them and their order.

s-off is probably what I meant. It was a while ago that I did it using the instructions on xda so don't remember the details.

Bump!!!!!! So what other steps can be taken to fix this if any at all?

Mine did exactly the same, I took a gamble on the screen being broken and bought one off ebay - fixed it immediately.

Because they might check the phone for possible rooting and etc. And by completely bricking the phone they can't check if you rooted the phone or not and its caused by running custom romm

Well first to see if you can still fix the phone download sdk. and install it.
Then download the proper drivers for your phone. If your too lazy just go to htc website and download htc sync. It will download the drivers.
Next I'm guessing you didn't flash the hboot engineer?
Its in android develop section rooting thread. Gscrpit no adb needed something like that.
Idk if fastboot will still work or not though if yoh didn't flash the hboot engineer, I'm not sure x.x
You can still try. After install all the proper drivers and everything.
Now pull out battery to make sure ur phone is off. Put it back in click volume down and power button. Plug it in to computer
Open up adb and type in adb devices. If you get serial numbers of your phone then u can flash other rom using adb.
If not then well...its bricked.
put ur sd card on other phone or use sdcard adapter to move the radio on your sd card then put it back in your phone
Let me know if you need any help

And then I also downloaded the htc sync.
However, I tried to search "Gscrpit no adb needed" but couldn't find anything.
In the link i posted above, there are two methods for installing ADB on windows, one is complete (seems very complicated) and other one is Quick way (without ADB). Does it matter which one I choose? I'm guessing the purpose of installing ABD on computer is to install a new rom in it, am I correct?

But if it's completely bricked, then how come I can still receive phone calls using my htc head phone? Also I thought bricking usually happens during the process of rooting the phone, however, this phone was rooted 4 months ago and had been working fine since then.

Edited!!!!!!!!!

Good news. I figured it out and ran adb and I'm able to see my device. Now big question how do I flash a new ROM or the stock ROM using ADB?

Heated Death Loop :DHD dead Please help

Out of nowhere, my perfectly working unrooted desire hd heated up and thne went into a non stop restart loop. It wont even shut down. Just restart every time and get heating up.
I took the battery out, placed it back in and now it wont start. Tried the hardware factory reset. Factory reset happneed the phone started and again went into the restart loop heating up
NO power problems, no droppage no nothing.
What is this? please some one help.

Thats a new one.
Is the heat from the battery or the handset?
Do you have a branded handset or was it stock HTC?

HTC one. not branded.
Funny just been 3 months. The heat actually was from the set. Absolutely nothing wrong before it. I am not a fancy cell person, so no fancy things in it either.'
It gave me a force close on messages. Then it deleted my messages automatically, and then it went into this crazy restart loop getting heated up more and more..
the rest i already mentioned.
Is it DEAD?

I wouldn't say it was dead yet.
Do you know what your HTC Firmware was or your Android Version?

It was froyo. Did not do the gingerbread update yet.
Sense was 2.0

Ok,
Could you download the latest HTC firmware (Gingerbread) from HERE.
Once downloaded, remove the battery, reinsert. Plug into your computer, but don't turn the phone on. You should get the orange charging light. Now run the RUU.exe file and follow the prompts.

Ok. but what is your thought process on this?
also i had the winmo ruu. Can u give the link for ruu u mentioned in your reply?
EDIT: Got the ruu clear.

My thoughts is to upgrade your handset to the latest firmware. In the process of upgrading your handset will be completely wiped. And it should fix your problem.
If it still fails to work, there maybe a bigger underlying cause to your issue.

You said your phone is unrooted right? So, maybe installing the RUU will not succeded as ID wrong alarm will appear.
You need to root first which you need to turn ON your dead phone which i think impossible. Therefore the only solution is to return back to HTC for repairing. Unroot should still under warranty.

Doesn't the wrong id alarm appear only if you're trying to apply a wrong RUU? (For example T-Mobile RUU to an Orange phone)

What I would do if I had unrooted stock DHD without custom recovery that has problems is to send it for repair under warranty. If you didn't do anything that would void the warranty, don't do it now.

Its like brand new.
Yes i can goto the boot loader screen. If i switch the phone on after atleast 12 hours, it switches on...gets immediately into heating and restart loop. goes dead.
then it wont start again until 12 to 13 hours.
Not a battery issue since i replaced it.
Now shall i go for the ruu gingerbread or should i simply contact htc ( which btw is not in the country that i live and i will have to wait till i make the trip aBroad)

I'd flash the gingerbread RUU I posted first. It's the official HTC update so don't worry about voiding you warranty.
Like I mentioned previously, ensure your handset is completely off, plug into your computer, wait for the orange charging LED then run the RUU.
If your problem still persists then a HTC repair is your only remaining option.

If you have access to your sdcard you could try to flash the ruu using the bootloader : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841890

I try my best to give good honest advice.
@torsrex - That was my backup Plan B should the RUU not work.
