[Stuck on Recovery] Cannot boot - G2 and Desire Z General

Hi!, I've a not rooted HTC Desire Z.
After being very slow for some day today the device stay on the white screen with HTC for hours.
I've then tried to factory reset the device but when i select factory reset it stay stuck on the menu voice and i've to reboot removing the battery.
If i choose recovery it shows a green circle and an arrow in the center.
I've searched a bit on the forum but who has the same problem has not my model of phone and who has the same model has already unlocked the bootloder.. so... could anyone show me the right image/process to take to unlock/format the phone?

Put the og pc10 image for your phone and flash through flashboot. Start over. You're hanging cause your not rooted

Uhh uhh uhh... until someone like niqper (or however you spell his name) comes in here and tells you to flash that PC10IMG, do NOT flash it, I'm not saying it will break your phone but considering you aren't rooted I'm thinking it's not at all necessary and I don't know the consequences.. So wait, can you access the bootloader by holding down + vol ? What happens exactly?

Hi! and thank you for your interess:
The phone is unbranded and not rooted.
It's impossible to boot normally
And selecting the recovery or the factory reset just freeze on the bootloader screen.
I've tried putting the PC10IMG.zip that I've found on the web but seems that I need a later version because all the version I've used are too old.

You can try just running the exe, or extracting the zip from it (run it, until it loads (says press next or whatever) and go to the %temp% dir in windows, and do a search for rom.zip, should be roughly 250mb)
It will be safe to flash, but will wipe all your data.
I do have a suspicion that you have a fried emmc chip, you seem to have some of the symptoms, so if it hangs during the flash that will be why, in which case you can't fix it and will need to get a replacement.

Thank you, I've extracted the rom.zip and uploaded it on the SD.
The process starts updating but hangs on the first step (updating bootloader).
I think that you are right the emmc is gone...

Its an HTC G2 but has the same problem with being stuck on the HTC screen
Is there an ruu for my phone? I tried the one above and it started fine, updated the first 2 then reset then when it reloaded it says "model ID incorrect"

You shouldn't of flashed that rom, thats for a DZ, not a G2.
You must've had fake S-OFF too.
You can try flashing this rom PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_2.15.531.3_Radio_12.52.60.25U_26.08.04.30_M3.zip
You better hope your main version is low enough to accept it though.
And that the DZ hboot accepts it (chances are it'll throw some sort of heap error)
You might be able to use a goldcard (which you need a functioning android phone to create) to allow the DZ stock rom to flash, though I can't guarantee anything.
Your phone not booting would be because the g2 hboot and dz hboot have their partition layout quite different, so its looking in the wrong place to try load android now.

First of all, wrong section. Moving to General. Next time your post will be trashed.
Secondly, your not bricked. Please check your definitions.
Third, try flashing the engineering bootloader via goldcard method and then fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (Amon_RaG or ClockworkMod for MyTouch/Ion).
Then power off your phone and hold the home button while powering it back on.
You should now have a recovery. From there try flashing the rom again. If it still doesn't appear to be doing anything then do a wipe and reflash.
Thanks for the tips, ill go for that right now.
sorry for the wrong section. Im wouldve put it in the Q&A section if there was one.
EDIT:
The only guide for a goldcard I've found requires a working phone. Mine doesnt work.

Ok Im blind, sorry.
But still have a bricked phone. and if the MT3g section is anything like the HD2 section. the only place to get answers is the DEV section.
Your going to have to find someone with an Android phone (any Android phone will work) to create the goldcard.
No need. If you got adb access you can flash the custom recovery from there (cm 6.1 has the SU and flash_image binaries).
Then simply load the custom recovery and fix your rom/OS (flash a new one or wipe or what ever).
Take a look at my guide (check my signature) and you will find all the steps needed. Just make sure you use G recovery and NOT H.
Good luck hunting!
To add to that, what radio are you using? You only gave us your hboot.

If you put the goldcard in and boot to your bootloader and press the back key it will load your goldcard and flash the engineering spl.

He stated that the rom won't load and he can't load the recovery. His spl is S-ON so from where I sit the goldcard method is his ONLY choice.
If that doesn't work then he's pretty much SOL.

Good point :0)
If you have a ****ed spl/radio combo, then all this is for nothing and there are other issues to be fixed first!
Its kinda a difficult situation. I only have adb access for a little while while @ the Cm screen, then it goes away, and Im stuck at the CM screen. I have attemped the goldcard a couple times, but I dont have the correct card, and none of mine seem to work. Wife was shopping, and could only find SanDisk cards, and it didnt work.
Radio is 2.22.23.02
Im gonna attempt anything and everything I can think of to get it to work, but I might have to just run into town and find a damn Kingston card.
SanDisk cards work, got mine sitting in a box in my closet from where I rooted my phone. It may be a procedure that's wrong, not the SD card.
Ok well I managed to get the goldcard made, but when I get into HBOOT, it scans the card and states: no image or wrong image for the sappimg.zip.
file is @ the root of my sdcard, and wont read it, yet when I dont have the goldcard setup, it reads the file just fine. same exact file.

Its not. I've managed to get 2 goldcards succefully made, verified that multiple times, but it just doesnt work. It will not read the file from the SDcard.
I can put the same file on my sdcard from my HD2 and it will read it no problem.
I might play around with it more, but for now, Im calling it a brick.
Just to make sure, have you tried downloading the sappimg file again?

Yea, I've got 3 or 4 different ones on my PC, tried all, none work. It reads the sdcard and just passes it by.
Im really stumped. Followed the goldcard method to a "T" with 4 cards, 2 actually succeed in the proccess, but niether will get the sappimg.zip to read.
After installing the card into the phone and, attempting the Hboot, the HEX gets changed on the card also, just a few values, nothing exteme
IDK if thats normal or what, but it happens.
I don't think it should change anything so that may be your problem. I'm pretty sure I looked at mine after using it and it was the same. Weird.
well last resort, gonna turn my 8gb class 6 sdcard for my HD2 into a goldcard, and check.
after putting the sappimg on the sdcard w/o formating, goldcard or anything, the MT reads the sappimg, and attempts, but gets the error, of course. So im attempting the goldcard right now.
UPDATE:
It worked, got eng SPL on the phone, figured I would just follow CM guide for rooting to verify that it will work. but Im stuck:
# Once it finishes flashing, it should ask you to reboot. Reboot and let it load to the new "htc Magic" boot screen.
# Chances are at this point that the phone will not successfully boot. THIS IS NORMAL. Simply remove and re-insert the battery, as we're not done yet!
# Download the following zip file (the stock myTouch SPL and Radio) and extract it: [1]
# Copy the two files inside the zip to the root of your SD Card
# Take the latest Amon_RA recovery you downloaded earlier and copy it to the root of your SD Card.
# Download terminal emulator from the market and run the following commands:
flash_image flash radio /sdcard/radio.img
flash_image flash hboot /sdcard/hboot_7201A_1.33.0013G_091021.nb0
flash_image flash recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.7.0G-cyan.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Items in red are the issue, if the phone doesnt boot, how am I supposed to get into market?
Done and Done! phone is working again. I guess I should've tried my nice sdcard a while ago, but I didnt want to screw it up.
Oh well. Thanks for all the tips and ideas guys!

you will also need to install correct drivers on your pc, install pdanet on your desktop, that should do it
In order to use fastboot to push any commands the phone must have an ENG. Hboot. When you boot into bootloader what does it say on the top line on the page with the skateboarding andriods on the bottom? If it says VISION PVT SHIP S-ON your pretty much stuck. The phone is a paper weight. HTC is probably the only one who can fix this. It must say VISION PVT ENG S-OFF or at least VISION PVT SHIP S-OFF if there is any chance for fixing it. The only other hopes in fixing it is to flasch the stock PC10IMG to the phone in bootloader but this will only work if the phone did NOT have the OTA 1.22 rom update applyed to it. There is no way to tell this unless you try it out, but if you do have S-OFF do not try this because it will turn S back on and your screwed. If it says S-Off there is a cooked version of the PC10IMG by hot_hands that you can flash that will keep your S-Off and give you root access plus it will flash the ENG Hboot for you, I have a copy of this at home and can post it later for you, if you have S-Off.

He can't use fastboot he doesn't have an ENG. HBoot he has the SHIP Hboot.
He can try the original stock 1.19 PC10IMG thru bootloader, that is his only option.

Sometimes it hard to fact the facts but I think your phone is beyond help, at least the help offered here in the forum, I think the only thing that will bring you phone back is HTC or JTAG both of which are not available here. Might call HTC and see if they can do anything for you.

For parts? I'm just guessing, $100.00, but you definitely dont want to pass it onto someone else with false hopes of somehow restoring it to working order. Bad Karma.
Are you sure you copied it to the root of your sdcard? With the right file name? It seems as if it isn't picking it up at all.

[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

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

[Q] What have I done :( Just me and my hboot...

So I have a MyTouch 3g w/ the 3.5mm... I'm no noob but obviously I'm farrr from expert because I've effectively softbricked my phone.
Can't get past splash screen (stuck in a boot loop @ the HTC logo). I can bring up hboot and I have fastboot access.. but that's about it. No ADB drivers, no goldcard, no recovery, nada.
When trying to push anything useful (like a recovery image) through fastboot, I get "failed: remote not allowed."
As for how I got into this mess, it started when I mixed up two SD's and ran an update.zip meant for a different phone. Ouchies Instead of immediately coming for help, I thought I could fix it by just unrooting back to cupcake. Ugh.. I seriously don't know what I was thinking.
Is there any hope left for me?

Thanks so much in advance for any advice. Love this forum btw, long-time lurker & first time poster here
Update: I have recovery. I've tried factory reset, wiping cache, loading several different update.zip files.
When trying to load a recovery image through update.zip I get a verification error. Still can't load a rom.
I can get past the HTC logo now, but only the menu bar loads.. the rest of the UI doesn't, and I get a repeating "The process andriod.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly" error, along with a few other errors.... then it will shut down and go to HTC logo again, and bootloop. I have to factory reset to get past the bootloop again.
How can I load a custom recovery through recovery? I'm guessing that's my only solution right now.
Just flash 2.10.531.4 T-Mobile USA DRD35 RUU. It is official ROM (sure, your data will be deleted)
UPDATE 2: Okay, I think I know what my problem is, but I'm stuck once again.
This phone was originally rooted and running cyanogen. i mixed up two sd cards accidentally flashed a motorola rom when i was trying to reset, which was the big dumb mistake that led to me trying to fix it by unrooting, which may have been an even dumber decision lol... i know i know
i think ive got a radio/spl mismatch going on? and i still cant fix anything with no adb or debugging. and fastboot's not flashing anything... i'm about to take downtown and have someone look at it, but i really don't want to spend the $.. but the work im missing over this is $$ too haha. >_<

Thanks.. I just tried that last night, fastboot won't pick it up, recovery is giving me errors. the exe won't do it either (but i'm not sure if that's related to the lack of adb drivers?) seems to be a permissions problem.. do i need s-off?

If you still have same hboot / radio as in your first post - you DON'T have mismatch

What error did you get?
You can run ruu but navigate into temporary directory and search for rom.nbh, copy to folder with fastboot.exe and close RUU
Then go into fastboot-mode and run
Code:
fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh

When flashing in hboot (goldcard and otherwise) - No error, just goes through initial loading of SAPPIMG.zip and then goes back to hboot screen like nothing happened
...in recovery - Displays E: can't open cache/recovery/command, allows to apply update.zip but then gives a failed verification error
...in fastboot - Remote: not allowed error, aborts installation
You can run ruu but navigate into temporary directory and search for rom.nbh, copy to folder with fastboot.exe and close RUU
Then go into fastboot-mode and run
Code:
fastboot flash nbh rom.nbh

Thanks, will try, though i haven't had success in fastboot yet
Found this post and will try that first & let you know how it goes. If nothing works, I'm looking to sell a MT3G 1.2 for someone to play with, because I can't afford to spend any more time messing with it myself

after taking my phone from a store that fix cellphones. I took the phone there to change the screen that was cracked and the inside screen that was dead. When I took back my phone and I started the phone, that is the moment I saw that. I was running Dark Side rom. I got a PD15IMG from 4share that I found here in xda forums but when I start doing the updating, it just stays there and do nothing else. Hope someone can help me with this problem.....ohh and before taking the phone there the Ship was S=OFF...I dont know if that have to do something with it.
never seen that hboot

Looks like they changed your motherboard.
The easy way is: go back to the store and ask them either to restore what you were running on the phone, or to bring you to the stock ROM.
Your only chance to do it yourself is to find PD15IMG for the latest stock ROM - including the latest update by T-Mobile that bumps the HBOOT from 0.89.0005 to 0.89.0006 (if it exists at all). The standard 2.2.1 and 2.3.4 PD15IMG files that are the most shared on the forum won't help you.

If I'm not mistaken, my hboot was 0.89.007 b4 I rooted? I could be wrong though...

Thank you for joining, I think you reminded me of what might be the correct answer. 0.89.0006 is the HBOOT that is made by HTCDev unlock.
In this case, OP, what you need to do is the following:
1) Proceed with HTCDev unlock.
2) Once unlocked - flash custom recovery.
3) From custom recovery, in root ADB shell, override the main version on MISC partition (find this part in the downgrading guide).
4) Copy PD15IMG.ZIP with stock 2.2.1 Froyo PD15IMG.ZIP to /sdcard for downgrading.
5) Reboot to FASTBOOT (put attention - NOT to HBOOT! execute "adb reboot bootloader", or choose "reboot to bootloader" option from recovery).
6) Relock HBOOT.
7) Execute "REBOOT BOOTLOADER", proceed with downgrading flash.
8) Boot the phone regularly, it should boot.
9) Root and S-OFF.
10) Do whatever you want.
Sounds odd hope ya did not up date the ring radio is it boot looping or just stuck on mytouch 4g screen? Best bet is to dl a new file n see what happens might be a soft brick good luck

Ok, I was trying to unlock bootloader using Htcdev and everything was ok until i got to the cmd. I type the command and as soon and I hit enter i get this
<bootloader> [ERR] Command error !!!
so...that mean the phone have no fix?
You're writing a wrong command. Most likely making a typo, or not copy-pasting.
That's the thing, i was writing the right thing but nothing happened
Can It be a Hardware problem?
Most likely not. Can't be 100% sure.
I took the phone to a store to see if they can get the phone back to life. They told me that, the phone its done...but I read this article in xda where it says that if you can enter in the bootloader, you still have hope and if you try to upload and update with a PD15IMG and it doesn't say Fail P-U it means the phone can still work...
So i tried everything to recover my phone...but it seems Its just hopeless. I tried by using cmd but its still saying that there is an error in the command. I tried with every possible PD15IMG available out there and still can't get it. BUT I still reading that as long as you can get into HBOOT you still have hope...if there is someone out there that can fix this...or It's just the end of my phone T_T

Exactly what command are you typing(like, how are you typing it, letters/spaces/etc)? Maybe seeing it would help to understand if you're going wrong somewhere...just a thought
I was typing it like this:
fastboot oem get_identifier_token
that after typing the: cd /android
