well if it's bricked and you still have warranty can't you just send it in?

They'll still fix the phone for free, but you'll be put on a blacklist if you don't have stock.

I don't believe there is any topic like this for the G2. Just wondering if there is any psfreedom app for the vision yet. I know it just got rooted like two days ago, but just wondering if there is a psfreedom out for another android phone that works with the G2

Just buy a p3go there $28
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
imo the best way to do the psfreedom is in recovery. that way you dont have wifi issues and other little things ive heard about. i kow there are recoveries based on amon_ra's recovery for the g1 that have this included. im sure someone can do it to cwm or base off of amon_ra's for us.
Well I checked the site and the G2 ain't on it so was wondering if there is anyway.. and to the $28 I know they sell em but id rather just have it on my phone so I can take it easier. Since I take my phone everywhere I wouldn't have to worry about leavin it behind =p.

You only need to plug in the phone/usb dongle to boot up the system. Once it has started up, you can unplug. Yes, I have tried it. I've been doing this since the port came over to the G1 a good while ago. I would like to know where you heard this from.
I'm also waiting for a psfreedom on G2!! I dropped my G1 one too many times and it's finally dead... /tear, good times w/ the G1
i broke my G1 sometime back , i been waiting on Psfreedom on G2 since then , i havent turned off my ps3 , because i couldnt get it back into dev mode .
but now theres hope...
You only need to connect it at the startup of the PS3. Once it's started you can disconnect it.

Wow! Very nice! The springs seem to not be available right now. I also have a little fear of disassembling my phone.. The last time I did it, it was on a Sony Ericsson k800i, I ended up break the power button off without even knowing it until there was no feel in the power button when I tried to turn it in.

Whilst out walking the dog I noticed a htc phone facedown on the pavement, there was no body else about so I picked it up...
Turns out to be a wildfire with vodaphone sim and security gesture locked.
What should I do?
Is the phone rooted or not ?!
If not just Hold Volume Down + The power button to boot into hBoot menu, then choose clear storage and choose yes, this will hard reset the phone and it will be as new, enjoy it
LUCKY!! -.-
Hi, no doubt its rooted. Yeah I know how to wipe it but didn't know if it was blockable by the carrier. Thibk its pay as you go to be honest!
I have a rooted desire myself but might give it to the misses

Closing this for obvious reasons.
So i decided to root my G2. When i did i got a phone call and could not hear the other person. I decided to unroot my phone and I still have the problem. I don't think its a hardware issue because i have never dropped the phone from a large height. Ironic that it would be but I don't think thats the case.
If anyone has a fix please reply! I've tried SuperWipe and Wipe through ClockWork and factory reset and everything!! I don't know what i haven't tried yet but a fix would be very appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
Probably need some more information regarding what ROM you are running. I know there was trouble with some older ICS ROMs (and GB if I recall, its been a long time) where the mic pickup was terrible and people could barely hear you talking during a call.
EDIT: Opps. Just saw you were talking about hearing other people, not them hearing you. Still, need more information regarding the ROM you're on.
Just got the same problem on Andromadus 99. I will check if its software or hardware related in a couple of hours when I get home.

After I rooted I decided to use CyanogenMod 9 RC1 Unofficial. When I noticed the problem I immediately unrooted my phone using the XDA Wiki. I'm now running stock 2.3.4 with S-ON.
Try speaker phone.
Try a bluetooth device.
If it doesnt work, you may be speak with a silent person.

I'm sure there is a dissasembley guide somewhere on youtube. I'm not much of a guide guy I just like taking things apart so I couldn't tell you. if search ebay or amazon you'll be able to find the speaker I'm sure. if either of you are having trouble pm me and ill walk you through it, @ work now so I don't have time to write up a full guide, only tools needed will be a t5 and small phillips

Ok thanks!
I did a quick Google search and i found this:
http://www.repairsuniverse.com/htc-t-mobile-g2-earpiece-speaker-replacement.html
It a replacement part with tools and instructions.. i've never heard of the website so i'm kind of skeptical about it. Idk if its safe or not to buy..
since upgrading a while ago to my current Galaxy Nexus, i checked my Desire HD before getting ready to sell it off, and discovered while it was sitting gathering dust, at some point it died.
I've researched a bit, and found it has the "7 vibrations" behaviour upon trying to boot. I'm happy with my galaxy nexus, soon to be replaced with a Nexus-4, and i loved the Desire HD the whole time i had it. it was a good run.
So if any one could use the spare parts, or clever enough to un-brick it and get even more use out of it, i'm offering it up to a good home.
Just respond with your interest, and maybe a little about why you want it, especially if you're a Dev as i'd love for it to go to the most useful person that benefits the community as a whole. I'll give people a week to respond, then i'll choose the candidate i feel best serves the greater good
Enjoy !

Why everybody is stating that their devices are bricked? a brick is lifeless and so should be the device. A messed bootloader should not be fixed by flashing a RUU. That can definitely bricked the device.
Messed bootloader have been a big issue since the GB update. Fix for it can be found in the guide in my signature, thou does not work for all devices and bootloaders.

it's bricked, quite hard it seems.
no amount of "unbricking it" seems to work. It's a bricked device offered for free to anyone that wants it, i'm not selling the damned thing and not asking poeple to jump through fire-hoops.

no power LED, just 7 vibrations when you it the power button. tried all the un-bricking advice around and this thing doesn't respond or show boot-menus, nothing.
