Nothing but problems...

I am not sure whether this phone is faulty or not, the weather hardly ever updates, i will have a 3g conection and the moment i press weather update the 3g changes to H and then gives an updating error, the screen seems to be unresponsive at times...i want to return the phone to stock and see how it goes and then decide whether i am going to return it to shop or not as i would like to keep the phone but just want to be sure its not me thats caused the problems...i have the ROM for my mobile provider T-Mo in the UK but i dont have the radio for it so i am not sure which radio i should flash using task29 exe first...also i have HSPL1 on the phone so i would need to remove this also if i decide to return it..what steps should i take please ?..i really am hoping the phone behaves itself when its back to 100% stock then i am happy to keep it as i do generally like it.
Thanks community !

If you have the stock ROM and reflash from SD card then all should be returned to stock.

Hi, sorry you're having problems. To be honest lots of people have trouble with the weather (at least it's not as bad as the weather in Bing). If you serch XDA you will find lots of info about problems and fixes the people have found for weather. One big thing is that some locations just cannot automatically update My Location for weather. For instance, when I'm in Gloucester "My Location" updates the weather all the time. When I'm in Cheltenham it fails everytime. I had to add Cheltenham as a city to get it to work.
Going back to stock ROM is a good idea to test the responsiveness. I'm on stock ROM so I don't have experience of this (I'd have hoped that a hard reset would reset everything inlcuding the radio but as I said, Ive never used a non-stock ROM on a "locked" phone). but a search of the forum might help. There is an official ROM thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577717.
Perhaps you could do a reset then update to the latest T-Mobile stock ROM that came out on the 15th? This will hopefully be better than the stock ROM you had. http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownloadList.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=2
Hope you get the help you need to mnake this phone work for you.

the support in this forum is second to none. I download the rom for my phone, i put it on the root of my sd card and renamed it to leoimg.nbh, powered phone on whilst holding vol down and screen came up saying loading but tben it just sits on the tri colour boot screen

Which rom did you download and install? Some roms are radio sensitive; if you don't install the right radio then the rom won't work.

i downloaded a stock rom from tbe stock thread which is correct for my phone, i was told to put it on sd card and rename it and then power on whilst holding vol down, this is supposed to flash it with correct radio and rom for warranty purposes

soundslike you just renamed the .exe file and put that on your phone which would be the wrong way.
the exe is just a zip file really, so change the .exe to .zip and then it will open like any other zip (on your PC).inside you will see a few files, one especially called ruu_signed.nbh. extract that file, rename it leoimg.nbh, copy to sd card, now boot to boot loader and follow the prompts.

[Q] Need Help - Android snag

Hi all - I'm in a bit of trouble.
Tried changing the OS to Android and must have made a mistake somewhere along the line.
Was using ROM update utility MAGDLR V1.13 and got as far as updating the ROM Was told that the screen should go black and if it didn't, then I needed to perform a reset.
I did this and now the screen just shows the htc logo on white background.
Irish phone - got it august '10. recently upgraded ROM from HTC site to version 3.14.405.2 but not sure now whether I've wrecked it completely.
Was just sick of WinMo and wanted a change - can anyone help please?
ND

boot into bootloader and start again. do you have hspl? right radio?
get into bootloader. flash magldr. then flash nandroid.

you probably need to downgrade the rom to get to hspl 2.08

Thanks - I got the correct HSPL and installed it on the phone, that part was fine. The problem now is that the handset isn't even acknowledging when it's plugged in. And when I connect via USB, the computer isn't registering any connection to it.
I think it's toast! The only thing I can see is a white background with green htc lettering i.e. welcome screen
Thanks for getting back to me, any other ideas?
Will I be able to reload original windows back on by myself?

Try windows 7 XP sucks doing this kind of stuff

Thanks very much for the response. As above, the handset is completely unresponsive - it's not even showing a "charge" when plugged in.
Any help greatly appreciated
Many thanks

Can you get to bootloader?
(power on while holding vol. down)........
If so, get to bootloader then connect via usb. The word serial at the bottom of the screen should change to USB. This sometimes takes a few minutes (for me anyway)
Once it reads "USB" flash a WM6.5 Rom in the usual way.......
If you cant get to bootloader then theres a good chance you've somehow borked your device......

Thanks everyone and in particular jsmmcabe and conantroutman
I got into bootloader and I'm trying to reinstall the windows os from there.
will let you know how I get on,
thanks again guys - lifesavers

I should have mentioned that flashing a stock 6.5 rom will wipe HSPL.
If you flash a stock rom then you will need to reinstall HSPL before attempting any MAGLDR/NAND shenanigans... (sheNANDigans?? see what I did there )
If you flash a custom ROM from XDA then your HSPL will be ok......
Also should have mentioned the age old "NO .51. radios on a tmous" advice.........
Good luck.......

Well after all of that I went to Pirate Bay, downloaded an Android 2.2 file, copied it onto my SD card and ran it.
Hey presto, I have an Android Phone!
I cannot begin to tell you how much better it is. It's fast, it doesn't freeze, the whole interface is much cleaner and easier to use.
SNAG ITEM:
Tried doing the same with a friends phone and when activating the copied files from the SD card, the thing just hangs and I have to reset the phone.
Any idea why it worked on mine and not his?
Same phone, bought in Ireland, a week apart. Different mobile operator networks though..... I'm Vodafone, he's O2 - weird, no?

Could be its not booting because of an incompatible radio....
must be above 2.08.50..... you can find this info in settings about phone...
Also, why download android from the piratebay???
Everything android related you could possibly need is here on XDA.
Personally Id be suspicious of anything from a site like that. Theres no way of knowing whats in that Rom. I would change to a well used and trusted build from XDA if I were you.
Theres no exact science to getting this running on different phones, what works for one may not work for another......

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

Are you absolutely sure about that? Because, if that's true then I'll might as well brick it if I'm unable to fix it.

Thanks for all your input.
I got the SDK from here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865685
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?

[Q] HTC WildFire A3335 Qustion

I have a basic question,
I'm only asking because there's far too much
information available,
on here
and its not easy to find what best fits my
needs.
I have an unlocked A3335 wildfire ( Telstra NextG network 3g version), I'm using it on optus,
my boyfriend was useing it he dowloaded a
font change app for the phone,
but when he did it my phone went in to
bootloop mode.and keep't bootlooping again
and again
all i get is the start up screen,
with yes you guessed it
(Telstra NextG network 3g crap)
All I want to do is try and get my phone from
this bootloop mode and try and recover...
my phone back to how it was.
Its hard to explain,
ok when i go in to the boot screen
i have this on my phone
BUZZ PVT SHIP S- Off
HBOOT-1.01.0002
MICROP-0622
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab
RADIO-3.35.20.10
DEC 27 2010,
17:49:10
and it reads the sd card,
it said the Boot Image. is missing
dont know why a app would take this out
but this is what happen
So Now when i did the fastboot on my phone
it done nothing,
then did the clear storge.
then i did the recovery
it rebooted to a black screen with A
triangle shape with one of these things
! in the middle of it,
but still stuck
I can follow the regular guides for rooting,
can any one help me to get my phone back to
how it was please
And I really don't care about this part much,
but would be nice to have it off the phone
and remove all the telstra junk and restore
the phone back to how HTC would ship it,
(all the junk apps they include could easily be optionally installed from marketplace if you want their crap...)
(obviously I'm in Australia also)
There are so many ROMS and options available,
including the ones from shipped roms
(it wont let me post the link because I'm new).
I just want my phone back to how i got it,
can any one help me please....
please send me a private messages,
with a step by step guide to do so thanks..

Since you are s-off u can use fastboot flash from windows to flash a clockwork mod recovery. After you do that, every thing will be simple. Just download a rom in zip format,put it to sd go to recovery( just do what you have done to see the triangle in blackscreen. Note that if u flash cwm you will no longer see that triangle). Then use your volume down button to reach install zip from SD card. Hit it with joystick press. Choose zip. Install it. Just do a data- factory resetting before you install zip.
I prefer cyanogen mod 7. U may use latest stable or nightly build. Feel free to post any doubt you have. We are happy to help you.

nope that gold card image will send to ur email..and u need to copy that gold card image to ur sd card...

Well if the hboot is 1.01.0002 with S-OFF then it must be done using xtc clip. So fastboot flashing shouldn't be working. And u don't need a gold card for S-OFF wildfire .
I would just suggest to flash a stock froyo WWE RUU which also removes the carrier bloatware. If ruu proccess gives errors u can copy the romzip from that ruu and use it with pc49img process from hboot menu. And ofcourse fat32 memory card is must for pc49img process
Sent from my Blade using XDA App

Hey can you explain what happened now? You said that yours is working now before 2 days. ( in second last post). So what happened now? What have you tried with your phone?
And...
So the gold card question, let me explain.
Gold card is just a patch tool, with the help of which you can unlock HTC boot loader , or in detail, you can unlock HTC 's boot loader protection(that's what we call as s-off) , which is commenly locked( that's we call as s-on) , for a user mode phone( a phone that is for sale to normal user), and it is done so because a normal user never need a root permission, over clocking etc. Also user defined kernal,rom,radio updates unless HTC provide them with updates.( and of cource to protect their device and its custom os made by HTC.
So being an s-off device, we can say in simple, unleash the potential of android.( that's what i said, make the device yours and not HTC 's).
And s-off. In can be done using many ways, find them in topic " complete wildfire index " , one of which is using goldcard method. It is also explained in topic/ stickies " downgrade hboot to xxxx". You can download an attached file called buzz downgrade from that topic, and its what you all need.
And about ruu flashing, i think its not a safe one for you, Coz your phone is a3335? Right? If so, original ruu flashing may cause problems with network( called as radio problems), so you can use custom/ safe ruu, instead. Which contains no radio image, check " complete wildfire index" else go for custom os like cm7.
But before all you should mention what you need.
1) r u trying to put custom os, or do you need original os?
2) do you want your phone to be a true android gadget, or just normal phone which is provided by HTC?
3) what kind of user r u? Normal user or a tech junky?
4) r u satisfied with android 2.2 or need 2.3?
Get us the answers, along with your current boot menu( where you find recovery option) details. So that we can help you properly.
That's all dude. Its 2.30 am here in India, so i should wish myself a good night, swtdrmz. Cu ltr.

Oops. Completely missed that point, sorry.
But since the phone is S-OFF one can just flash the system.img and boot.img alone from wwe ruu to remove the carrier bloat and to continue on the HTC stock rom (only if u wish to). Same pc49img process here but with only system.img and boot.img along with android-info.txt .

Have you installed clockwork mod recovery? If not do it first. Use fastboot flash from windows or linux, then download latest cyanogen mod nightly and put it in your sd. Then use install zip option from cwm recovery to install cm7. Done. Its what you want. No radio harm will be done unless you flash a radio using any methods.
All info will be available on thread" complete wild fire index" in this forum. Tools, recovery, how to, rom, and every thing else are available in that thread.

No expert but looks like you have an empty sdcard and system.I think you need to get a rom onto your sdcard (cm7 good choice) and then through recovery apply the rom. Zip and reboot after. DONT DO A WIPE.the telestra screen is just a splash screen which will always load before the system searches for data to load,next would be boot loading screen but yours by the looks and sounds of things does not achieve!! Probably cos its not present due to not having a rom installed.hope I helped if not best of luck. Members are very helpful here and cos you can access hboot I am 99% sure this will be fixed for you.

i have a rom on my sd card but the thing keeps saying FAILED? NO SUCH FILE FOUND ?

Download this: http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...5.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe
Enter HBOOT.
Wait until it finishes trying to load a zip file.
Choose FASTBOOT to enter FASTBOOT USB mode.
Run the downloaded file.
It should then install the original HTC rom.

Or maybe try PC49IMG method if you haven't already?
On your PC click start and type in the search box %temp%,
Keep your eye on this folder and doubleclick your ruu, a new folder should appear in temp folder,
Open it and search for rom.zip,
Copy it to your desktop and rename it to PC49IMG.zip then copy to your SD card and boot into hboot, it should find the zip and install.

@scratches post. I couldn't remember the method but that's exactly how I got my ruu to install so I could revolutionize.

i have done that already still no go

[Help] Phone wont boot.

Hi, after hours of researching to find the problem, i cant find it so as my last resort i will ask the mighty forums if there is anything they can do about it.
The problem is that its stuck in a boot loop, i can get in to bootloader and Hboot.
When i press to go in to recovery its just goes to the HTC logo and stays there.
When i try to do a factory reset same thing happened.
Anyway, the facts.
Its a DHD it used to have leedroid latest as rom, atm i have no idea it is supposed to be 1.32 stock rom for rooting and RADIO-26.14.04.28_M, kernel was also leedroid recommended but i guess that also is 1.32 stock.
It was ENG S-OFF but then i tried some PD98IMG and it changed to SHIP S-OFF
Things that i have tried.
Tried different PD98IMG to get the recovery working but nothing same thing happened there.
Tried patched/flashed the recovery part only with no luck.
Tried to get into recovery through pulling the battery inserting the usb and then inserting the battery again, no luck.
The odd thing is when i try to charge the phone and the led goes orange and when i pull the usb out it stays orange, it should turn off.
I suppose i ****ed something over but i have no clue of what that is?!?
Help would be most appreciated

I'm suggesting everyone to give this method a try although i have no experience with it but since it can be used to recover using computer i believe recovery isn't necessary here so that you can recover the firmware using the PC.
Hope this helps

Done and failed, same problem no difference what so ever.

SHIP S-OFF is OK!! U got it m8!
If you want to use your own Image do it within this way:
1. Flash this: http://www.multiupload.com/FKJ8B7Q0QM
and after this:
2. Flash this: http://www.multiupload.com/AURLLESU5V
And enjoy it! I don't know why the PD98IMG is not working on your device so I recomend to flash the RUU. Within the RUU you will also get the latest firmware for phone and wifi and so on. It's not a need, it's a must!
The 2nd ROM is same as above but it's ROOTED and contains the 4ext Recovery which will give you the option to flash whatever you want.
BUT!!! This ROM's are ORIGINAL. If you want to use a CUSTOM ROM I would recomend you will format your device by the 4ext Recovery or you are using the FULL WIPE 1.5.
Regards!

Sorry for the insane delay.
That did not work either, anyone else have any idea what to do, installing through PD98IMG.zip files seams not to work, will at this point do anything.
I'am a student so buying a new one is out of the question.

I tend to have to see things to understand them more. Maybe other people are similar. Is it possible you can video the process, put it on YouTube and some of the experts here can see it and talk you through it?

Here's me trying factory reset but failed, stuck at the same place as before.
youtube.com/watch?v=aZF1ALz0Z-w
Here is where i go into fastboot, just to show that i can do it and then back again to try recovery, same problem...

when you flashed PD98IMG.zip does it give you a cid error?. If this is the error then a gold card needs to be made for your device first, then you flash the RUU.

Back again.
No CID error, its skips something called TP when i try to flash it.
I can use any simcard, its an unbranded phone i believe.
And also if it is to any help, when i plug my charger in the phone and then back out again, the little orange led keeps emitting light, as if it stills charging.

My English is not very good.
I want to know what did you do for it before its stuck in a boot loop?
You can get into HBOOT and connect the phone to the computer,then try to run RUU.Before you do this,make sure you have make golden card.

Try another pd zip..i came across a few corrupt ones,the answers in this site somewhere alterbatively google the sentence you want the answer to..or the key words,if the systems still working theres a 98% chance youll get it going boot loops from what i see are just a file or something causing chaos..once its gone voila.
Good luck

Enter hboot and paste exactly what it says in there.
SHIP AND ENG don't matter as long as it's S-OFF. If you can't access recovery and if you're unable for some reason to flash a PDimg, download AAHK and use it to unroot. That will hopefully get you into the stock ROM and S-ON of course.
Use AAHK again to root. You will still have access to your stock ROM.
Now here's the tricky part. If the phone won't boot at all that probably means there's nothing to boot at all. Happened to me a lot of times. If you can still get into hboot then don't panic. See if AAHK will help you out.
