I AM IN NO WAY SAYING THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!
THIS THREAD WAS CREATED TO PROVE THIS EITHER TRUE OR FALSE!
I personally have never bricked a phone, so didn't do this and cannot really confirm it, but reading over the thread it seems like it has worked for numerous people. The only problem with this is I would have imagined it would have blew up and everyone would know. If this does work, I wanted to share it. I understand how much a bricked device can get under one's skin. Anyways, it's also an older thread. (From 14th October 2009) Found it playing around in Sapphire Android Development but here's the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=571457
Any thoughts on this? Some people say it worked, so people say it didn't. One guy said keep pulling cord out then plugging in and it will eventually catch it and install. I want to try and get this more out in the open and see if it actually does work, or if it doesn't.
I'm not trying to post spam, or raise hopes and just crush them. If this works, though, I want EVERYONE to know about this, if it doesn't - it was worth a try.
EDIT: I forgot to put this - I also want to know what an actual brick is. Is it actually where the phone won't turn on at all? If so - this isn't for a brick. However, the most common way I hear "brick" referred to as is "phone won't get into recovery, bootloader, or boot." If a brick is where your phone won't turn on - this is not for you. Once again, though, if you can get to splash screen this may be able to save you!
I've tried this method for a while with no provail, atleast on windows 7. It seems that some people can get their devices reconised by their operating systems while others cant, if this is the case then possibly fastboot can reflash it. Mine charges the device but does not identiy it at all.
I for the life of me cant figure out why my camera is completely dead! I have FULLY wiped all caches,everything under 'WIPE' via AMONS and even formatted my SD card as well as trying an alternate SD card(both 8GB--C6speed)--never had a problem w either card on ANY ROM...ALL OF A SUDDEN the past 2days my camera goes to a FULL BLACK SCREEN,when pressing the CAMERA icon. Occasionally the taskbar will remain uptop but will timeout when screen display shutsoff. Now if i launch CAMERA via DESIRE ROM(KING),ill get the notice about clicking trackball to resume camera but as soon as i click it,the message dissapears and the screen will go back to black screen again...and repeat. I SWEAR i have DONE MULTIPLE COMPLETE WIPES AND REFORMATS so im left to believe its THE HARDWARE itself! CAN ANYBODY PLEASE LEND ME A HAND IF the similar problemhas occured...On the Nandroid backups that ive restored from FULLY FUNCTIONING bkups,if i launch NEXUS TORCH it will say CANNOT ACCESS LED---this is THE ONLY info besides the "camera wake message"mentioned earlier that i can provide. Thanks in advance and pleas edont flame for NOT being in Q&A bc this is more of a DEV related restore question.
**oh and BTW--I DID TRY TO INSTALL the DESIRE R2 cam fix and does nothing. I tried it when all was working fine early in the week and it did nothing to help FLASH timing for me,so i NAN restored back to prior state and CAMERA continued working until about THURSDAY night--regardless--PHONE is in OUT OF BOX STATE--MINUS UNLOCKED and it STILL doesnt work!---PEACE and Happy Mothers Day to any Mothers out there in XDA world!

Your hardware has malfunctioned. Contact HTC for a repair.
1. you may have a broken camera, try a stock rom
2. your caps lock button is definitely broken
3. you posted in the wrong section

1. i should have known you were from Philly and cant read--I TRIED STOCK ROM
2. CAPS is to put highlights on key terms so idiots dont read over the fact that I DID TRY STOCK ROM---see how that helps?
3. Thanks for your informative responses---any suggestions from CAPTAIN OBVIOUS how to get service on a ROOTED device without being charged full price on the phone?? Ahhh--thought not!--So i tried here to see if anyone else had similar situation. AGAIN-thanks for your help as well SERIAL TOON--geez
If it's a hardware failure they won't charge you.
I think it will help if you go through Google Cust service first...they will end up redirecting you to HTC repair. Provide all truthful information on your issue, proving that you have done some legitimate trouble shooting and they will realize that it is a hardware issue, not the ROM flashing or bootloader unlocking that caused the problem. Someone else on the xda forums had a rooted phone with bluetooth problem and was able to send to HTC for repair for free...with a 4 day turnaround!
Good luck!
What do you base this on...Heresay?

I didnt intend to sound rude,im just a little pissed right now..I Only ask bc i already had an issue in January days after receipt of phone. Issue was solved by sending me a new battery bc other was causing random shutdowns (ive since forwarded this info to another XDAmember that had exact same issue and they give him replacement phone at 1st but issue continued to occur--i told him about my story after he posted his problem, he contacted them this weekend and confirmed with me today that a new battery was on the way..see my public IM's for info). Anyway,when i was dealing with the battery issue they said they would definately NOT be able to fix under warranty bc the phone is rooted and unlocked. I can attest to the few people on here that said theyve been successful in such cases,but either way,IVE ALREADY STATED that i tried the DESIRE R2 camera kernal to see if that helps,so im not going to be dishonest and tell them i havent tried anything other than custom roms. Again..positive suggestions or similar experiences with warranty info would be appreciated....trollers looking for a funny post or to degrade people can eat one!

Thanks JOSH, ill look into it tommorrow--as i stated tho--i feel im being dishonest for trying the DESIRE R2 cam and saying that they should cover it---uninformed people will assume THAT couldve caused it,even though i used phone afterwards for a few days w no side effects
Hey Milton, like others have mentioned in here might want to try flash back to stock and seeing if the problem persists. If it does then your looking at a hardware problem and you should contact HTC/google for repair.
Yea...i was thinking that from get go--(hardware prob). Im on cheesy STOCK ROM right now and have been for cpl hrs...but its obvious its gotta be hardware...NOW comes the crappy part of trying to explain it to HTC when attempting to get an RMA!--Yee Haa!
MOD PLEASE CLOSE OR DELETE---THANKS!
Milton, among the items on the very small list of things folks around here want in return for helping you is that you lay off the caps. Doesn't highlight anything that you'd want to highlight.

Okay,,,this is weird!!..My TORCH hadnt been working at all either, the whole time ive had the camera problem. Now ,the torch will work for ONE TURN ON, then if i launch CAMERA, the cam still doesnt work. i have to HOME and HOME only to get back to home screen..BACK ARROW does nothing except vibrate,indicating touch response. If i then re-launch TORCH, it doesnt work....!??SOMETHING is ODD--and im split whether its hardware- or some sorta SYSTEM file that stays stuck even after all STOCK FLASHES and everything!--again,reminder..the LED TORCH hadnt worked up until this point--unit has NEVER been dropped,slid out of pocket from 1foot high onto superthick carpet,so i doubt its a loose internal cable...Hmmm...

That seriously hurts my eyes to look at. Try using proper punctuation and grammar. It's very simple and still gets your point across.
As for your phone. Call Google which will probably have you call HTC. People have gotten their rooted devices fixed for free if it's a genuine hardware problem and nothing caused from the rooting process.

You should send it to HTC for repair. Charging fee or not, but thats the only option to you right now because its a hardware failure.

I was thinking the exact same thing, don't know where he must have learned how to type. Then you criticize people from Philly, or whatever its called somewhere, for not knowing how to read. I would say mirror that advice and learn how to type.. type properly.
Torch will work until camera app is used then it wont work again until i reboot. After reboot, torch will work ONLY on regular/lower setting. MAX brightness will not work. Toggle back to LOW setting and torch will work again. Im going to try what DOUG suggested bc that is the only thing i havent tried yet...but the way torch and camera are acting up and requiring reboots keeps me willing to try software tricks first...WHAT ties the TORCH's HI setting to the camera app adn yet keeps the LOW setting seperate!??..ill try the TORCH dev real quick for some insight on how the two work hand in hand.Thanks for anyone using their time to help instead of criticize. Sorry for mocking ones ability to read but i was quite [email protected] time bc i lost a major function on my phone.My apologies to all

The attitude, hostility and the caps are not welcome here.
Along with the others I have no sympathy for you. Learn proper grammar and get a better attitude.
Troll much? Go tell your mother happy mothers day if you have that much time to pull up old posts from people asking questions in a 'kernal forum' about basics. Basics that anyone should know, if not they stand a much better chance on damging their phone. It wasnt being ignorant. Since you know everything there is to know about everyones posts, tell me where the topic dealing with my specific camera issue has been previously posted and ill be glad to read and search thru that forum. I wasnt the one asking questions about something mentioned in the OP (uh oh i used caps--oh geesh-someones gonna be saaad now!)and numerous pages before. Im sorry i dont spend all my life on forums to know that only words approved for caps are indeed CAPITALIZED. Petty little boy-and by the way, i was trying to stress your good advice by typing your name in caps so people would credit you with the help-Sorry to have taken your precious time sir. Good day.
Ok since I upgraded to the 2.1 myphone has been having major problems almost to the point where I cant use it anymore. I have done a factory reset 3 times and still hasnt fixed the problems. I did do the upgrade over the air, what I need to know is, is there anyway I can downgrade back to the 1.5 or manually re upload the 2.1 version to see if it fixes my problems. Thank you.
what is exactly wrong with your phone that is making it unusable?
There is no current way to downgrade 2.1 to 1.5, even with OTA update, unless you would like to flash the root image, then downgrade back to regular 1.5... Also we may be able to better assist you if you explain the issues you are having with your phone a little better.
The issues I am having are text app force closes all the time, mostly when the phone itself is charging. I dont receive texts a lot, I have to *228 frequently through out the day. When I am at the homescreen the pages will slide all the way to the left and stay there the only way I can get back to anywhere is to either do a soft reset or long press the home key to go to another app. The biggest problem though is the texting and like i said it mostly just happens when the phone is charging. But the keyboard will seriously lag, force close...the cursor jumps to the begining of whatever i am saying or just randomly go to the left and mix all my words up.
have you installed any apps or do you use any widgets? are you using the sense home launcher?
i have not installed any apps since the 3rd time i did the factory reset, and i have no idea about the other question.
It sounds to me like there was some corruption with your OTA update. I would venture to say that you have two options here:
1. Take your Eris into Verizon and have them replace it.
or
2. Root your Eris and enjoy the many available roms here.
*Standard disclaimer: I am not responsible for what you do to your device, it is your choice to do whatever you please...*
why don't you just go into the verizon wieless store and tell them what is happening and they will give you a replacement. i had slight wifi issues so i went there and they gave me a new phone on the dot! they might make you do some factory resets and such there also
yeah thats what i think too..but since i did the over the air update to the 2.1 i didnt think I could do any roots or whatever. I am not that knowledgable when it comes to the roots or any of that. I would like to do that so I can fix my phone and actually use it. Can you please provide me with step by step instructions on how to do that.
ok i am not responsible for this but here is the link to the instructions:http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-eris/53963-guide-stock-1-5-latest-root-2-1-a.html
also this will void your warranty so you can't get a free replacement from verizon after you root
update: these are instructions for windows if you search around you can find instructions for linux and mac (i rooted on a mac so if you need help PM me and i will respond when i can (i am not an expert))
ok so once i dothe root or whatever will my contacts still sync with google?? I cant get a replacement phone anyhow because I bought this phone from a private owner, but I did not have problems with it until right after I did the upgrade a few weeks after I bought the phone.

Here is a link to a thread that will take you through the root process. These guys, ECLIPS3 and Jamezelle, know their stuff! They even made an app to do the hard part.

Yes, you can still sync with Google. (Did someone say g00gl3?) Lolz
Anyhow, just do some research as you choose which rom to load. Every rom has it's own features and charateristics. Also, make sure to create Nandroid backups whenever flashing from rom to rom just in case of issues. Good luck!
ok since i am very illiterate about the whole rom thing and all that..can you please in your opionion tell me which way to go?? I wont hold anything against you I just want to be able to use my freakin phone. I dont really care about the techy stuff as long as i can use the apps and text and make calls I am good. I looked at the link you provided "google" lol..and i am not sure quite how to do it. I know i am being a big pain right now I just dont want to mess my phone up.
actually the jumpy screen while charging thing is pretty common I believe its a hardware issue though...its my belief the mini usb connecter on the eris is shoddy
plug in the charger and wiggle it you may notice the connetor is not properly fastened to the phone
fyi DO NOT hold the phone up or horizontial by the usb plug...my wife did that to both our phones and ever since then it will flake out
a quick fix would be to plug in wiggle it and unplug you want the mini usb connector back in alignment

No worries - everyone is hesitant at first - no one wants to brick their phone...
What kind of computer do you use; Windows, Mac, or Linux? This is important for following the root procedure.
I still believe the EMA app that I linked is your best bet. It handles the tough command line tasks for you.
As for a rom, you can see by my signature that I prefer Sense-able 3.1 from Jamezelle. But I also really like Evil Eris 2.0.1 by Framework43.
I would probably suggest Sense-able 3.1 for you because it is based on an Eris build. I have found it to be very stable and doesn't really need any tweaks to run well.
*Just wanted to note that I am in no way knocking any other roms or devs on these boards. Thank you to all the talented devs out there for all the work you do!!!*
i downloaded the sensible rom..as far as the app goes how do I go about getting that or whatever?? I am running windows..but the sensible rom file is downloaded to my desk top i havent done anything with it yet beings that I dont have a clue as to what I am doing lol..

Just download the EMA app and use it. The thread has instructions to use it. Just read the part about pre-requisites to install the needed software. Then run EMA and follow the center column of 4 commands. Thats really all there is to it.
Like I said earlier, ECLIPS3 and Jamezelle do great work and are willing to provide help. As he said above...
Okay, I'm not sure what has happened. I picked up my HD2 last week, I had WinMo running until I got home from the store LOL. After trying the different builds I settled on Darkstone FROYO for obvious reasons to me. Ran it ever since, until today, I decided to give a different radio a try due to the fact that large file downloads ie Google Sky Map would fail and I read that a different radio may help. After flashing the radio I went from the Chucky ROM to RC4.7 BLACK TMOUS VR ROM. All went well. Backed up my SD CARD DATA and reformated it to FAT32 32KB, copy my backup back on the SD and loaded dual boot.
Booted right up into Android and right away i see my hard keys are lit up. To be honest I didn't know they even were lighted. LOL.
Anybody else notice this?
They are not working in any build as of now. Are you sure that when you booted into Android from WM, these buttons were not lit up.
If they were, they gonna be lit up all the time (even if you lock the device). If that is the case, would suggest you to reboot it to windows and boot into android only when the buttons are not lit up.
They are on... but yes you are correct. they are on all the time. Even when I lock or when the device goes to sleep.
You booted it from WM with them on, wait til they turn off before booting android
I noticed something else too... I still had the boot screen from the Chucky ROM even after the flash to the VR ROM. So I just reflashed to AxLor DF1 Xlite and that is taken care of. my lights are now off yet again.
wasted thread this has been talked about 1000 times over find another way to get your post up
they shouldnt be lit up lol

anyways, this has happened to me a couple times and i agree with earhog, wait till they are off in WM before u run HARET. this way they'll be off when you boot android and wont drain your battery as quickly...

exactly my point since this android port hit all we get are people posting things that are not helpful ...how is this helping any one , so what u are telling me is we need to help him figure out why his button lights are staying on ..the is a effin emulator ....how about i go post a thread ..."my android market is working"....wtf is that going to do for any one when there a 15 threads saying the same thing find one of thse thread to "CONTRIBUTE" to ...
Every post should be from a Developer or Chef?? The point of the post was... hey this is what is happening, has it happened to anyone else? How did you fix it? Ideas?
The EXACT point of this forum. If you you knew the answer and it was nothing that intrigued you... why did you open the post? Lol. Anyway, it has been answered, issue solved.

I am using my first post just for you. You sir, are an ass and need to go elswhere with your "higher-than-mighty" attitude. Since none of the roms are finalized, this is an acceptable topic for this section. OP even stated later on, all he found was posts for the buttons NOT working. And it is apparent that he was asking if anyone else has ran into this issue. For all we know, there may be an issue the the ROM he has loaded that is causing the buttons to stay on like that.
So heed your own advise and stop padding YOUR post count.
noticed something like that too. the button lights are on SOMETIMES. I can say for sure, I didnt start haret with the lights on, but at some point the lights went on during running android (and stayed on). I think an incoming call triggered it, but I'm not sure.
Hi, I want to be able to update my firmware but it seems this is not a genuine unit from googling, I bought it off AliExpress a long time ago, was working great but now the control buttons are not all working, eg the back button doesn't go back anymore but brings up the settings like option button, done a factory reset but still the same, android auto hardly understand and commands, works find on phone when not connected to android auto, hoping an update might fix that but can't find anything, anyone any idea from the pictures?
Thanks
No, I would try to contact the seller and ask for help.
This firmware is completely unknown.
Odd ball
Ok, thanks, seller wasn't much help on AliExpress so I tho i give here a try if someone might came across one of these before

By the way... As I can read on your pics, the Android API is called 28. If it would be Android 10, you should read API29 in there.
That means, this is a fake Android 10 version.Instead this is an Android 9 version.
Doesn´t make things better I think.
It´s often a mess with the seller as they even don´t know what they are selling.
Hope that someone has already seen this kind of firmware/MCU, but I have no real hope.
Pardon my ignorance, but quote: "was working great" and "hoping an update might fix that" seem inconsistent. If it was working correctly, why would it need an 'upgrade' to fix it? Surely there is some other reason it is now not working correctly?

Calm down folks...
In most units you should be able to adapt the hardware buttons and touch buttons somewhere in the settings.
As I don´t know your specific unit, you need to search yourself... sorry to say.
At least, I don´t think that a firmware update would help here, as those settings are persisted.
So take your time and step through the internal settings of this unit. May be there is something hidden behind a PIN. If there is something like that, you need to try to get the PIN from the seller. They should know them.
...but be really careful not to change anything if you are not sure. Can make things seriously bad.

I have the pin and I have went in to settings for the buttons and dials, setting has not been changed and no matter which button settings I use, no difference
I'm calm alright dont worry, just dont understand the point and purpose of a reply that just picking the start and end of my post and completely ignored the rest.
Because the piece in between is irrelevant. If it was working fine then no update is needed unless you have installed or changed something since that is not compatible with the original firmware. If you have not, then the firmware has not changed itself to make something not work.
I'm sorry you cannot see the logic in that, I'll leave the thread now.
