G2 bricked??? I need some info... - G2 and Desire Z General

Hi to all, I am a noob here so I hope to don't do any mistake with this thread.
After that I apologize for my broken English and I try to explain at my best.
I have the chance to buy an US T-Mobile G2 with a "little" problem: the owner said that the phone turn on but it stops at the white boot screen.
The HTC USA reply to him the only way to solve the problem is wait for a full HTC rom advanced than OTA or send the phone to the USA assistance.
What do you think? There are some opportunity to unbrick the phone, without send it to HTC USA or wait for the new full rom?
Thanks to all and sorry again for my English.

It all depends, does he have S-off, to check pull the battery, then put it back in, hold the volume down while power on, the fist line will say "VISION PVT SHIP S-OFF" if it says this there's a good chance, I have a cooked version of the PC10IMG that has an ENG Hboot plus ROOT that member hot_hands built to help someone else in the same situation, so if it is S-OFF let me know and Ill post the Cooked PC10IMG for you.
Remember do not try to flash the Stock PC10IMG because what will happen it will flash the stock hboot S-on and radio first then reboot to flash the stock rom img., when it does this S will be on and it won't let you flash an older main version and it will be permanetly stuck at the HTC screen.
So again what I am suggesting will only work if you have S-Off.

If you can access the bootloader and it's s-off then all you need to do is flash a rom through fastboot. It's pretty easy though I can't remember the exact commands

when i checked the fastboot screen it says:

Hmm seems like your friend tried to run the rogers (32a) update on a tmobile phone (32b). Try to find a t-mobile ruu to revert back to the original software on the phone.
Try this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=659403 , there's 32b ruu roms.. but make sure you have usb drivers installed..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=665814
official sappimg that will return the mytouch 1.2 or mytouch fender to stock.

I has this problem too, you will need to make a Goldcard. A simple search will point you in the right direction

[Q] Attempting Root but......Main Version Older

Ok, I recently got my hands on a MT3G, no 3.5mm, and I'm trying to root it. It came with Froyo already on it (2.2.1) and as far as I understad, no one click method works for 2.2.1? Anyway I'm trying to downgrade and use the goldcard method but I keep getting the Main version is older message. I've used 3 different sappimg files but same thing. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? This is my first time trying to root
You didn't make your goldcard right. Secondly, stop flashing different sappimg.zip's or you'll possibly end up bricking your phone. Lastly, this is rumored to still be working with the 2.2.1 update. If that one doesn't work, post your fastboot info here. With the phone turned off, turn it on holding back+power and post everything you see there.
I rooted my mytouch 3g a few days ago, I used super one click, and my phone has no 3.5mm jack. all 32b phones work with super one cancel so far i know
Sent from my HTC Magic using XDA App
Ok guys the Super One Click method worked for me. Got rom manager installed. Made backup and now trying to flash Cyanogen 6.1. But it gets stuck in reset loop. What's the deal now?
Turn your phone off, then turn it back on holding back+power. Post everything you see there.

Your problem is that you have a 28.25 radio, which is new and cyanogen doesnt support it yet, he will soon enough though. You either have to find a compatible kernel with your radio or flash this rom
http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/11548-cm61-2708port-for-new-radiospl-unofficial/
Flash this rom and it should work. If it worked hit the thanks button.

Report: It worked! Thanks alot for that tip and thanks to everyone else who took time to help this Android n00b
I think you need to get the 1.33.0013 SPL if you are using that radio... someone may need to confirm this, but you should look info that to see if this is related...
That's the spl I used and all is working great now

Was the hole turn on -->> turn off -->> turn on usb debugging needed?

I think you need to do that only if your PC is having problems detecting your phone. All I did was plug it in with USB debugging enabled.

Nexus one stuck on 4 clours .

Hi,
Nexus One when i turn on the phone its stuck on 4 clors
here is the details when i press power + volume down button.
NEXUSONE PVT SHIP S-ON

MICROP-0b15
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0103
RADIO-4.06.00.12_7

any idea
Get into recovery, factory reset the phone.
If it doesn't help - read my signature and follow "Unroot/restore your Nexus" guide.
it seems that HBOOT, Radio (may include Recovery) are a little old, and try to upgrade them and flash a new rom may help
Negative. That HBOOT and Radio are fine. I don't think he is rooted so those are fine for any OTA version to date.

Hi,
could u please send me the OTA version link ?
You can't apply an OTA - you need the system to be running for it.
Your radio and HBOOT don't matter.
I think I wrote your solution a couple of posts above.
problem fixed ...using this update LeoFroYo_2.0.1-081710134222-noradio-signed

How did you try to root? Using ace hack kit? If so, there is an IRC for this where you can probably request for help .you can check out at the hack kit thread.

That happened to me too, but it booted fine after a few restarts.
What part of the root did it get stuck in? You're s-on still which sux. Can you put a img file on the sd card root

Thank you just let me know when you upload!
What ROM are you running? Or did you simply try to acquire root capabilities so far (stock)? I really recommend you do some more searching around the forum because your problem seems like just some bad luck. Also did you back up before you started the AAHK?
Well... when you used AAHK what was the rom you have?
If the phone was with official update GB 2.3.5 sense 3, the hack kit automatically DOWNGRADE the rom before attempt to root and get it S-OFF (with the last official update there's no way to success S-OFF, only root)...
Than the kit (run it twice) will perform S-OFF and root.
If the phone was with a rootable rom the hack kit SKIP the downgrade step and attempt directly to S-OFF and root the device.
So.... what exactly the situation?!
EDIT: Read this, i think could help...
Only i recommend (if you want to s-off and root your device) to use a build with a sense 2.1

I have not meet this situation。
I suppose it need temporary root permission or goldencard ?? and then DHD can find PD98IMG.zip in sdcard and automatically install it。
Try wiping your phone a few times in row also the cachs. You may have had a corrupted download so try downloading it again. Also cyanogenmod 7 is very stable but I prefer the new virtuous infinity alpha 3 ROM and don't forget to flash the inspire patch after the main ROM it fixes the camera issues as well some other buggs. I am still considered a noob but i've been around the block a few times as well flashed a few different roms with success everytime. If this still does not work reply and ill give you detailed instructs on what to do. Make it as detailed as possible. What you did start to finish. Do your homework too.

THis is an alternative way for the AAHK since it has been removed.
I'm guessing you might have done something wrong while downgrading.
Follow the guide, step by step, never skip anything, no matter how unimportant you believe it to be.
I'm sure you'll be good to go.

because the recovery on your phone only allow install update by official OTA/rom.if
