(Q) Help needed, unable to flash a recovery mode, and phone not booting any more.

Hello, I would really appreciate some advice.
I had a Magic 32b which i rooted, flashed CM and passed on to my brother about an year ago. He now tried to flash another ROM and maybe bricked the phone.
He followed steps in [custom Radio/SPL for dummies][32B] http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523680
He couldn't flash recovery mode because of an error ( signature verify fail) but he could load it via fastboot boot img and followed steps- 1-9 doing so. after superwipe and flashing radio he flashed Hboot and then couldn't get into recovery any more.
Now the phone has default recovery mode, and every time i try to flash an "update.zip" it gives me "signature verification failed".
Does not boot normally.
In fastboot cannot flash any recovery "signature verification failed" and when i try to load a recovery by fastboot boot recovery, it downloads it and then gets stuck at booting.
HBOOT-1.33.0013d
RADIO- 2.22.27.08
Any advice would be great.
Thanks in advance

hope this helps, seen it on other threads:
fastboot getvar version-main 1.75.162.3_R
fastboot getvar cid VODAP102
I know that i should make a goldcard to solve the problem, but if the phone only boots in recovery and fastboot, ADB commands do not work. Only fastboot commands work, so how can I make a goldcard?

The fix:
Download this file: https://rapidshare.com/files/1368708004/1.89.162.1.nbh
Download my fastboot commander tool found in my signature (not the magic version)
Using the tool, flash the file using the "Full zip" tab and do so inside fastboot mode.
It can take some time to finish....
Once done you should be back to stock 1.89.162.1 Vodafone Germany CRC24
From there, follow my root guide which is found in my signature...
Good luck

Thanks a lot for your response, I tried flashing the ZIP but failed
The weird thing is that it appears at S-ON, but i'm pretty sure that i had S-OFF an year ago when I flashed CM ROM, a new kernel and recovery on it ( otherwise it wouldn't have worked).
Is it possible to change the SPL from a good one to a perfected one with security? (at least that's what I think my brother did)

I have a nandroid Backup made, but i can't restore it
I'm open to any other suggestions.
and thanks again for at least giving mea little hope .

Try to put the nbh file in same directory as fastboot.exe then issue this command
Code:
fastboot flash nbh 1.89.162.1.nbh

Succeeded
I followed the last instructions and managed to setup the ROM.
after rooting and installing new radio , SPL and new ROM i'm now running Ginger Yoshi 1.2 and gave the phone back to my brother. Hope that i won't have to deal with it again and just stick to my SGS.
Thanks a lot for your support and applications.
I tried to donate, but I got some errors( I tried three times) and couldn't finish the transaction. I think that my bank does not see pay-pal as a trusted site and rejects the transaction.

No problem... glad it worked out for you.
You actually just helped me find a bug in the tool (the first one).
"Full rom" tab should automatically change the fastboot command depending on the rom type. In your case, it was nbh and not zip... this is gona be fixed :0)

Hi all,
I was trying to unroot my phone by simply loading the sappimg.zip which would have worked but it was for the vodafone version. Now my phone boots with the vodafone logo and stays there. I have access to hboot and fastboot, no recovery.

Follow this guide and you should be ok: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734617

whenever I put that sappimg.zip on my phone it freezes at the unzipping. What do I do?

Ok I finally figured out how to fix it
On the red Vodafone screen, its waiting for you to input commands, put in these commands:
fastboot erase boot
fastboot erase system -w
fastboot erase recovery
now when you try to apply the 60.7mb sappimg.zip, it will work
next flash the special sappimg.zip on most root tutorial's
Then you work your way from there....
Thanks for your help though, much appreciated

I have a similar issue but my mt3g say remote partition is not existed when i bootfast erasing system-w. how do I correct it?

[Q] need assist w/ recovering TM 32A MYTOUCH Fender LE matching SPL+RADIO(new)

I started with the tmobile fender mytouch LE 3g stock
successfully rooted w/ custom recovery and rom I flashed a different version of SPL/RADIO for a new custom rom
now no recovery and no boot... RUUmode
I have been working on this issue for 6 months. If I had to guess I would say that it has something to so with the system portion of the flashing since that is where the flashing process "freezes"--RUU/ or goldcard.

HTC One M9, Original, Locked, S-ON

Good day everyone.
After two weeks of trying and searching the web for an answer I have finally given up and decided to post my question here, perhaps someone has an idea that can help.
I have an HTC One M9 that was stashed away in a cupboard, I decided that I am going back to it as my current phone is just not working for me, however, I LOVE the hardware on the One M9 but I do not like the HTC Sence UI and decided that I will flash it with a custom ROM. Needless to say I completely stuffed it up. (I probably should have S-OFF and unlocked before I tried flashing. (Also didn't enable developer options or USB debugging - stupid stupid me)
Herewith the symptom. I can boot into download mode but not recovery, when i boot into recovery the black HTC logo appears and then disappears, appears, disappears etc etc so ABD does not work.
I have tried the RUU route but as soon as the installer reboots the phone it does the whole black logo loop thing. the get_identifier_token command also returns bank (see output below) so can't even use the htcdev procedure.
I have tried manually flashing zip and img files and get a 9 RU_SECURITY_FAIL boot and bootloader isn't BL_UNLOCK also tried flashing stock recovery.img rom.
Rom:
M9_3.35.401.12_FullStock_wipe.zip
M9_3.35.401.12_NoWipe_TWRP2871b1.zip
0PJAIMG_HIMA_UHL_M60_SENSE70_HTC_Europe_3.35.401.12_Radio_01.01_U11440792_97.00.51203G_F_release_signed.zip

I did the fastboot erase cache process

Wrong forum, pal. This is the One M9 PLUS forum.

My bad apologies.
