G2 bricked??? I need some info...

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

There's a debricking guide on ModaCo. Check it out
Sent from my Supernatural Blade

Go to Google, and type 'zte blade firmware'....Click on the first link (modaco), and follow those instructions...
In short:
You will need to flash the firmware, and install a custom rom...
I had been in this situation, so I know...No worries..

there is a guide on modaco to fix your phone from FTM Mode i had a similar problem and that guide was great at fixing my phone mate give it a try

As you guys said , i went through this .. http://android.modaco.com/topic/339048-guide-flashing-firmware-to-bladelibra-via-windows/
But cant understand step 8 and 9. First they say cwm 5.0.0.2 is the version for gen 2 and then flash 4.0.05 again?

Yes, when i flashed my phone for the first time i flashed 4... and then had to re flash back to 3.0.2 because that is the version that works best for my phone.

Okay so i got it to work. Its 5.0.0.2 for my phone, since i got a Gen 2 phone. But i want Dell stock firmware Android 2.2 Where can i get it?

Can you please explain your problem in detail ? Is the phone not even booting at all ?

hello, my phone is unlocked with the htc dev and then routed to the unlockroot. By applying rom manager on the phone can access the download roms, but when I ask to install a phone number appears on screen with a red light.
Phone Information:
***UNLOCKED***
BUZZ PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.02.0000
.............
Do I have to downgrade the Hboot, or switch to S-off?
Thanks for the help.

because the recovery on your phone only allow install update by official OTA/rom.if
you want to install unofficial rom,first install unofficial recovery，and then install unofficial rom.

there is here some tutorial with this release hbboot 1.02.000? thank you
