So I flashed the wrong RA recovery. This is the second time I've done this. I did this a months and months ago. For some reason I still had the hero RA on my computer and when I went to copy it over to flash, I didn't realize it was hero and not heroc. I flashed it and rebooted, and now I'm stuck at the HTC screen. I can't get passed it. Last time I was able to start booting, but it would bootloop. However in the bootloop I had adb shell access. Now I can't get passed the HTC screen. I can't get to fastboot either; when I hold the volume up button and power on it just stays at the HTC screen. I feel really stupid, but I was just flashing back to RA so I could install a sense rom to update my prl.
Anyone have any ideas? I just need to flash back to cm recovery. I'm not s-offed, nor did I use firerats, but I don't think that would help anyway. Anyone have any ideas?

From powered off state: hold volume DOWN then press power, should boot into hboot, then press volume up for fastboot.
You can always use cwm 2.xxx to flash amend zips, or restore nands from ra, just move the nand from sdcard/nandroid/###/ to sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
Good luck.

It's a no go. Just stays at the black HTC screen. Booting normally, hboot or recovery just gives me the black htc screen. (I know recovery won't work but I was just going through everything)
Yeah I should have just used a cwn 2 recovery. But this was suppose to be a 5 minute process and I already had RA sitting there so I just copied it over with the prl and NFX rom.
I tried to RUU my hero but I can't RUU because I get the usb error 170. I guess not surprising because the phone doesn't boot far enough along.
Anyone have any ideas? Is the phone bricked? There has to be someway to wipe the phone clean. There has to be a way to wipe the flash memory completely and then just start over. Can I bootstrap a hero?

My problem is though that I can't get into hboot, so I can't fastboot. I can't get anywhere past the HTC screen. If I could get into hboot this would be a piece of cake. Anyone whose had the 170 error has at least been able to get into hboot, and that's how they fixed it.

Try google, I'm sure someone has had that.
sent from a series of tubes.
Yeah I'm looking around. I can't find anyone who recovered from this, so my goal right now is to see about two things. 1) Find out if I can somehow access the flash memory and just dd a good image onto it. Or 2) Find a way to make the hero boot of the sdcard so I can put an image on the sdcard and go from there.
Now I've seen a two posts of peopel using an HTC phone and "booting" off of an sdcard. However their posts were not explicit so I don't know if they just hboot'ed and installed from there or if they made the sdcard the rootfs. There was a thread for the G1 but that was for hboot I'm pretty sure.
I'm just posting what I'm looking for incase anyone else runs into this trouble also.
heroC member "uncorrupted" has a dual boot method which allows you boot a ROM from the sd card, if that's what you're looking for.

His method is too high level, from what I can see.
I need to alter the SBL (or little kernel/hboot). I am pretty sure that is where my problem is. From what I can see the hero (like a lot of phones) uses the Little Kernel bootloader. But again I don't know how to flash/dd the flash memory on the phone without atleast hboot working, still trying to see if I can find a way to flash the ram a different method.
Somehow the bootloader (hboot) is messed up I think. I don't know if the recovery effects hboot, but I have a few theories. Either 1) The SPL was modified by flashing RA recovery thus now it fails authentication process and the SPL doesn't actually start. This probably would be do to the slightly different processors the gsm and cdma use[2]. 2) The hboot was slightly modified, and there is a failure there.[3]
The SPL should be able to boot hboot(LK) or recovery directly from what I read. Thus I should be able to get into hboot no matter what.
Now I know the chances of the SPL being messed up is very very slim, but these are the only two things I'm seeing from looking at dev docs.
I think I'm going to take it to sprint and see if I the guy I normally deal with will work with me on getting a hero. I know they are no longer sold, and back when I had a bunch of rumors after they were no longer sold and I was having problems they just swapped my phone for a parts phone they had.
If not then I am going to tear apart the hero and see about switching the GPIO95 pin[1-20] to low and disable secure boot. I'm fairly decent at soldering, so this might be a possibility. Either way I'll post back up with results if I can figure this out.
It just kills me that I've done this before, and fixed it but now it won't even boot. There are only three major differenes this time around, I was coming from cw recover 3, not RA 1.5. I have a AOSP (cyanogenmod 7) rom, not a sense rom, and I flashed the recovery while I was in recovery not while in the rom. The only one of these I think it might be is because I was in the recovery. It might be that since I flashed it in the recovery somehow hboot was messed up and will only boot back into what I was, aka recovery this time. My recovery won't boot because it's wrong -march. Last time I did this I was in the room and thus it tried to boot rom. I don't know, I've got different theories but not answers (yet).

Hey all, I hadnt visited xda for about 10 days until yesterday, to see how the different builds with Hero were going. Then I see the SuperHero post, and I remember that I have a partitioned 2gig MicroSD. So I go and re-root my phone(I unrooted due to rebooting issues) and install the HardSPL. After installing the Hard SPL, I try to Install Hay's Radio, then after a succesful Install, Install Hayk's SPL. Now, its kind of weird, but it doesnt want to boot. I got bricked and DREAIMG.nbh my way back to RC29. I read all about it, and saw that you need a PVT board and all that, which I do. I also remember he said there was a 99.99 Chance it will work with pvt, which, again, im guessing im that 0.01??? I am sure I have a PVT Board, it says PVT 32B or something like that..Its kind of awkward, so if anyone has any suggestions to tell me I would appreciate it. Also Mods if youre going to move this, please advice me first, I want to be able to track my Post.
I really could not track your steps but did you flash the radio update before you flashed the new spl?
Was it hung at the G1 screen? If so go back into the recovery and reflash the SPL. After it has completed, do not go into the console and type "reboot recovery". Instead reboot with the home and back buttons. It should then reboot twice and end back up in the recovery again. You should then be able to flash the ROM of your choice. That is what worked for me.

Flashing the SPL will change the size of the system and data partitions of the internal memory, so you must flash your system again and wipe.
In general, find it there
Got the same problem, can't even get to recovery.
Hope there is a solution soon.

And there it is.
Yes, I have been having the same problem as well, I believe a thread needs to be created in order to solve the current solution. There is no possible way for me to get into the phone what so ever at this time unfortunately. I am stuck at the G1 screen and I am unable to pass into recovery mode. Perhaps a brute force connection is necessary?

This thread has been created. "Let's fix that SPL" by haykuro.
It would appear that I dropped the incorrect SPL on my phone when following this guide (http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Amon_Ra_recovery_tool). I used the one that was mentioned, and now the phone no longer fully boots. I can still get into fastboot/hboot, and technically into recovery. The screen is not displaying properly on either mode, leaving hboot difficult to read, but useable, and recovery without a UI (the MyTouch splash stays there, but the phone goes into recovery mode).
I did manage (somehow) to get CM-Recovery 1.4 flashed to it, and that is how I managed to install the SPL. I had the 1.33.0006 SPL prior to bricking.
I also tried fastbooting and it is no longer blocked.
What are my options here? Am I boned, or do I have a way out of this?
Thanks in advance for the help.
If you have a SD Adapter try to add any ROM to your SD and flash it. I did that earlier, and it worked. If you can see the recovery image screen then its not fully bricked. Good luck.
I can attempt to do that. Thing is, I'm blind once I hit the recovery screen. Can't see jack because the video is all messed up.
Should I attempt to keep flashing SPLs till I find one that works? Or is that a very, very bad idea? Given, that, is there a way to go back to 0006?
Thing that sucks is that I just got this thing yesterday and got a little overzealous with the rooting. Whoever helps me through this is definitely getting a case of beer or something ><
---
I guess what would help me the most at this time (I think) is suggesting which SPL I should drop on the phone (2004 is now on there), or helping me get 0006 back on there or something of that nature.
Can I control Recovery via adb? If so, awesome. But can I push an SPL via adb, that is the question?
Also, since I was somehow able to get a different recovery on the phone, do I still need to deal with the goldcard and all in order to install a different ROM?
Ok so here's the problem...
I was able to root my Rogers Dream but then I messed up with trying to partition the sd card. It was then that it would not go past the rogers screen. After A LOT of reading I downloaded what I thought would the files I need to simply restore the phone to factory. Long story short, if I just turn the phone on it sits at the Rogers screen, I no longer have recovery mode and my fast boot goes to a RGBW screen with Serial0.
Also on the FastBoot screen it states:
DREA210 PVT 32B
HBOOT-0.95.0000
CPLD-4
RADIO-2.2.19.26I
I really just want to return the phone to the state it was before rooting it (store bought state). But because I can't access the fastboot through USB or even get to the Engineering SPL I'm really..really stuck!!
If I can get the proper FastBoot loaded somehow I think I can restore the rest.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
no it is not bricked, try removing the sdcard
Still nothing.
Also if I press Home+Power or Camera+Power it still ends up at the same RGBW screen.
No, it isn't bricked
You are stuck at the stock SPL. I'm not sure about rogers but for tmobile you would want to put dreaimg.nbh on the root your SD card, load up the SPL. Flash dreaimg.nbh. Then it should boot into rc29 (I believe). Get root access, flash whatever flavor of recovery you want. Then boot into recovery and flash whatever SPL you want. Then you can get back into the SPL and restore whatever nandroid backup you had.
Again, this is what I would do on tmobile. Not sure about rogers, but I would assume since you would be loading your own backup everything will be peachy.
Ya I hear what you're saying. The problem is I can't seem to find an original Rogers DREAIMG.nbh file anywhere. I think I might be SOL and have to take into Rogers to get it fixed. I'm just not sure if I've voided the warranty or not.
I'm stuck at the exact same place - Rogers phone same, settings, screwed up somewhere along the way.
HTC told me (over the phone) that I can call Rogers and request service on my phone for them to flash it back to the original Rogers ROM because they're the carrier, but this would mean sending the device in..... Whether they'll do it or not, I do not know, but right now I'm trying to simply update to the engineering SPL and go from there. Stupid 0.95.0000 version is screwing everything up.
And I haven't been able to find any Rogers .NBH files ANYWHERE that would allow me to get back to factory settings. At this point, I'd be happy to know that I"m getting 3G and can install a custom ROM on my phone so that it'll at least work the way I want it to.
try here >>>>>> http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream/Magic32B_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod
dl the rc7 for europe and see if the fastboot recs it. if not try and find the system.img for rogers and ill tell you how to flash it via fastboot. if you had the system img it would already be good. no use of the nbh. also what is dif from dream and g1 besides apns and a small other few things?? if nothing then why not flash the g1 dreamimg?? once thats good then root and get it finalized? just wondering.
EDIT: I searched more for you. dont try my idea. im kinda dumb lol. i forgot that rogers and tmobile have dif boards. so this wont work and might brick you. so dont listen to me. sorry for missleading. im use to g1's in the usa sorry. ill keep searching for anything for you thou.
EDIT2: in fastboot can you >>>>> fastboot boot "name_of_your_recovery.img" ???
try that in fastboot to see if you can get into recovery. if you have no idea what i mean let me know so i can give some sdk instructions.
Unfortunately I can't because even though I can fastboot it won't allow me to connect to the laptop via usb. Basically the phone never gets to that point.

I know! I can't believe out of every bit of information on how to root an Android phone there is basically nothing on how to fix it. At least for anyone using Rogers.
DO what I did, I had the same issue (T-mo) I used a micro Sd "converter" if you will...........and plugged it into my laptop's SD reader, copied the files over, and VIOLA!
I actually thought I bricked it 5 times.

I think you've misunderstood.. fastboot mode on the phone enables you to use the fastboot program on your pc to send commands. You can use it to boot a recovery image and flash the files you need to fix this. There's a sticky thread detailing how to set up and use fastboot in Q&A.
Does anyone...anyone at all know where I can get the official Rogers HTC dreaimg.nbh file? I have searched high and low and can't seem to find it anywhere. I'm pretty sure if I can get my hands on it I can fix the phone.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
How did you root your phone?
can you still boot into the recovery img? (home+power)
If you cant, try get back the recovery img (e.g. cm-recovery-1.4.img) and then home+power again. From there you should be able to update your spl to hardspl
Unfortunately I can't boot into fastboot any longer I just get the red/green/blue/white screen. This happens with both Home+Power or Camera+Power so I can't even use adb to force the images onto the phone.
Thanks for the help though.
Well problem solved (sort of).
I contacted Rogers and they're going to send me out a new phone and have me return the "defective" one.
Thanks for all your help and suggestions.
Hi guys,
just hoping one of your knowlegable forum members may be able to assist or shed some light on why I am experiencing this.
I have successfully rooted and loaded custom roms on my desire.
wife has a htc wildfire, rooted with oneclick root and gold card
hboot 1.o s off
customised rom installed, SU no problems
I cannot load alpha 1.8 on wildfire, (they say version 2)
so rom manager is loaded, flashed the clockwork mod and tried boot to recovery and backup current rom, both result in being taken to the standard htc recovery with no other options (restore etc).
boot to hboot and recovery option aslo lands me back at the standard recovery option, i reboot to current rom no probs.
i have uninstalled/reinstalled rom manager, fixed permissions, get eror when trying to load earlier versions of clockwork in rom manager/ nothing changes?
any thoughts guys? i want to backup this rom before trying something else and losing it.
TX in advance
Col
Have you tried the fastboot method to flash recovery since you have s-off? You can find clockworkmod 3.0 or amonra in the development section in the thread somewhere.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
tx for the reply, i will check it out this evening
Col
I really doubt that fastboot method will work, because it seems you must have eng hboot with normal hboot it won't work. I had a similar situation with hboot 1.01.0001 that was made s-off and in the end I've managed to flash recovery with flash_image tool. Just follow these steps

Of course its gonna boot into the rom...
while the phone is off, hold the volume down button, and press power button while holding the vol down button. white screen with android skateboarders should appear, with several options. wait for it to scan for pc49img, it will say nothing found, its okay. with volume buttons navigate to recovery and press power button.
not that hard eh?
if it doesnt work now, then you have no recovery? no problem. flash one with fastboot mode!

Thanks for the info, but yes I did do that (holding the volume down button and power on) I have gone into recovery loads of times before - so I do know that already LOL. I should have said that.
tried flashing another one through fastbbot i.e. with latest revolutionary for wildfire, still no luck - it just crashes, saying that I may have too high a firmware - but it definately has root - I have titanium running and it backs up and restores perfectly on a CUSTOM rom.
It was just that after I installed rom manager and installed the latest recovery is when everything went wrong.
Even trying to get to recovery through the rom, i.e. clicking on reboot into recovery via rom manager, still just rebooted straight back into the rom
I have tried flashing another via fastboot using revolutionary, but it says that maybe my firmware is too high - even though I have a rooted rom running

I am not getting you here. Revolutionary is a 1 time process to get S-OFF. After that, you need not touch it again to perform functions. How exactly are you trying to install a Recovery using Revolutionary and Fastboot?
Or did you mean Unrevoked? (This does not have anything to do with Fastboot though)
@smokzye - That is a bit "outdated". You do not need the SDK. Just the 4 files in this attachment:

Thanks guys for all your help.
I managed to get recovery back by using "revolutionary-0.4pre4" - I think it's an version of revolutionary, but it sorted it, and now I can boot into recovery. It did at first say that I already have S-OFF and questioned whether I knew what I was doing - LOL, but after that it asked whether I wanted to install a recovery and it put on Clockwork recovery dl'd from the internet.
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 is where i go into fastboot, just to show that i can do it and then back again to try recovery, same problem...
Anymore info you need, next time i will answer much faster, anyway there the problem it gets stuck on HTC logo forever, no restart no nothing...
ithen said:
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.

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.
