Hi all,
I've got an HTC Dream with ADP 1.1 firmware installed on it. I would like to flash it with another image. When I try to fastboot it by pressing the camera/power or back/power buttons, nothing happens. The phone just boots normally. That way, I can't do anything.
Please help me.
Which Bootloader do u have installed of the 4 that are available?
press home+power to boot into recovery mode...!!!

I thought he was talking about bootloader mode which is different from the recovery.
He wanted to flash images so he's using the SPL. U can access the SPL normally using camera+end unless you updated to the new Sapphire SPL in which case I am not sure if you use the same key combo to access that one. I thought it had something to do w/ the trackball.
Thanks for your replies!

You need to hold down the modifier button (Home or Back) when you press the power button. Keep holding it for a couple of seconds or until it boots into recovery/bootloader.

Hey... All (my first Post)
Ok tried most combinations to I guess unblock my phone .....
As it stands my computers do not see it Win or Mac.
Stuck in HTC logo boot while I tried to change to Hero21-radio-update-signed.zip to later install Hero_2.1-signed.zip Rom
Orange light come's on when charging and the blue light come's on when you press trackball then end/power button.
Am I to start shopping for a new Android Phone ???? .... HELP ...
can you boot into recovery or fastboot? try powering on by holding home and power, or the volumedown button and power, it it gets past the htc screen or mt3g screen (depending on if you have a magic or a mytouch) you ARE NOT bricked.

Hey .... THANX ..... my first brick, never thought it was really posible to brick the phone.
But now I may have to start collecting them.... It will be one expensive house.
hey,
i need to send my hd2 back for repair but unfortunately i can't get into the bootloader! volume up / down buttons do work when im in windows mobile, but when the phone is switched off, i press volume down + power button once and the phone just boots into windows mobile.
is there any other way to restore your phone to the stock spl?
You need to press Vol UP and PowerOn, not Vol Down

On my device it is PowerOn and VolDown. But I have to press and hold the VolDown button till the device is in bootloader mode.
Best regards

"*Go into BootLoader Mode (turn off phone, then press and hold the VOLUME DOWN then Press and hold the POWER button. After about 3 seconds the tri-coloured screen should appear)".
Do make sure you are pressing the volume down button hard enough AND for long enough.

tried it but still doesnt go into bootloader mode... i have managed to go into bootloader mode before (with several htc phones i have owned), but i think something is broken this time (my hardware sendbutton also is not working any more, that is the reason why i need to return the phone).

Try running the attached EnterBootloader.exe from your HD2 (unzip, move .exe to phone, run).

Sorry then, Vol UP has been my other phone I haven't flashed the HD2 via SD Card yet.
I just can think that you do not press the Vol DOWN button hard enough or long enough. You have to press and hold the Vol DOWN button and switch on the phone, then lift the power button while still holding the Vol DOWN button.

This what I do to go into bootloader mod in my HTC HD2 Leo :
Press together VOLUME DOWN & RESET RED BUTTON - under batt. metal cover -
after few seconds the tri-coloured screen appeared
add ; 4 all ; if for any reason while you are in bootloader - tri-coloured mod - and want to go back to normal ,
just press RESET RED BUTTON , your device will reset .
hope this will help . . .

thank you, with this file it went into bootloader mode, but somehow my hardware-buttons seem to be broken (in win mobile all of them beside the send-button work), when it says "Press power buutton to start update image", I press the power button, but nothing happens!
I guess thats it, no chance to restore SPL and no chance for warranty any more .

Hmm, very weird.
The actual keys are obviously ok - they're just not handled while in bootloader. I'm not sure what exactly is responsible for that, I assume it's not the OS, so perhaps SPL or Radio?
Not sure if it would make any difference, but perhaps you can try reflashing the HSPL (or maybe a different radio?).

when its asking to install the rom (in bootloader) hold down volume up (or whatever key it asks you to press to install) REALLY HARD,
another suggestion, take off the back, the buttons seem easier to press when the back battery cover it off
maybe this will work
1. On the Home screen, slide to the Settings tab and then tap Security > Factory reset.
2. Enter “1234 ” and then tap Yes.
Ooops!
If your power button does not work it will be impossible to flash from SD card and this is the only way top reflash a stock rom = the only way to uninstall HSPL.
But if this is the power button, then how do you already power up your device ??? Is this your reason to send it to the repair?
You seem stuck in a button my friend...

it is a real wierd problem, i can switch the phone on with the power button and when it is turned on, all keys work beside the talk(send) button. but i can not go into bootloader mode and power button / volume down button to confirm / cancel update when entering bootloader mode with bootloader.exe don't work.
you should really try to reflash radio and hspl again. if you can power on the device the hardwarebutton must work. looks like a software problem...
have you check that you vol down button is working? it happen to me before,
maybe you could contact the hspl maker if he can help you? i have in my mind that he could "hack" the procedure to NOT ask for SEND key press?
Thanks for all your replies. I left the phone off for about 4 hours charging. I switched it on press the vol down button and it worked! How weird / lucky. So I flashed a new rom and I am working again.
Thank you so much for you time.
One last thing though, now in WinMo the vol up and vol down work and the power button work. But the other 4 hardware keys don't, they just force the phone into vibrate/silent mode. When I get a phone call it also turns the volume down/off/vibrate.
Maybe a hardware failure?

I'm sure there is, but you'll have to give us more info.
Can you boot into Recovery Mod, by pressing Vol+ and Power, when phone is off?
Can you boot into Bootloader (Pink screen), by pressing Vol+, Vol- and Power?
Thats cool. I had never seen a phone that was painted whith a rom flash. You shoud write a book about your story. Kidding...
