Need some advice, phone running NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-V2.7, backed up using CWM and tried to flash nexus jellyBean by changing partirion to 400mb, phone would not boot passed cyanogenMod screen, wiped system changed back to 250mb partition and restored system but now phone will not boot passed ICS screen, have tried reflashing ROM but still same problem, any thoughts please.
I believe I should have said that the phone is in ICS animation and that is it, cannot get passed this, have tried everything apart from dropping the phone in a bucket of water. Have cleaned out everything but the restore will not work.
Is there a solution?
IMO you should try a fresh installation of whatever ROM you want: wipe everything(including microSD, but before do a backup) and install it from scratch!
Good luck!

This is getting very frustrating having checked dozens of posts cannot find a logical solution, tried every possible solution I can find. I can get into all features of system,2.08HSPL shows, CWM, MAGLDR, usb screens okay, in short everything okay bar cannot fully load any ROM past animation screen, have tried task 29 but will not load RUU just sits at HTC with bar and the has communication error. Can the the phone be bricked when all functions are available? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Can you run SD roms past boot anim?
Have you performed a NAND check from MAGLDR? Might be bad NAND blocks.
Well guys after hours of trying to sort this out I have come to the sad conclusion the phone is stuffed which has left me depressed, I have tried:
Restore from my original backup all loads good but does not bootup
task 29 (error 262) does not seem to recognise windows sync
Tried loading from cd using nbh but tri-colour boot loader will not search for file
It is a shame as I can get into all the bootloaders which people tell me should load but no luck
Thanks for your help HD2 goodby

you're probably using too big an SD card, is it bigger than 8gb?
If so, put the LEOIMG.NBH file on an 8gb or smaller card, and get into tricolor, it should load.
Yes I am using a 16gb card, in the meantime I have managed to restore the phone back to ics nexus v2.7, not sure how I did it but in case anybody has the same problem here goes'
I had to get back to WM 6.5 no matter which ROM I tried could not get the custom RUU to load, (probably due to the sd card size) but I noticed I had a custom RUU sitting on my desktop (not sure why there but probably from past messing about) as a last resort I loaded this and bingo within a short time windows loaded up and from there reflashed ICS and restored from backup, working perfectly what a relief. Goes to show ignorance sometimes wins. Details of the custom RUU used.
LEO CUSTOM RUU
[email protected]
File 1.1.0.0 921KB
This worked with the 16gb card, I would like to go to jelly bean but am I pushing my luck. Can you just reload CWM with a 400 partition?
Have a nice day
Cheers from kiwiland

Hello,
Last night I tried to install another radio fw on my Hero because of bad reception since the last one I installed.
I placed the new radio on my SD, rebooted and forgot to push the right buttons to access the "Android system recovery" (RA?) part.
Because it takes ages to wait for the phone to boot I pulled the battery and tried it again witch failed again, pulled the battery again etc.
When I finally managed to acces the "Android system recovery" part I flashed the new GSM radio to my GSM Hero. All the steps in described in the manual I used worked and all looked well.
After rebooting the phone started till the point of the Villainrom logo. I kept the phone on for hours till the battery was fully drained but it stays the same.
I can still acces the "Android system recovery", fast boot etc,
Tried the following:
-Wipe
-Restore backup
I'm getting pretty desperate!!
I's there anyone who has recovered his Hero from such a situation?
Please help..
If you can get to the recovery screen then you're not bricked. just reflash your rom and gapps add on and you should be fine or do a nandroid restore.
Hi pwraggcan,
I already restored a Nadroid backup.. Did not do the trick....
Also I tried to reflash the radio fw... Nothing helps. It just hangs at the unfolding Villainrom Logo which every few minutes restarts unfolding (I don't know how to call it otherwise, I do not mean that the phone restarts).
You're not bricked, so you're OK.
Re-flash the ROM you had installed after wiping your /data
Failing that, remove the SD card as that sometimes helps get the phone to boot.
If all else fails set up adb and get us a logcat.
Download the ROM again, full wipe & try again... Just to make sure the download didn't go bad?

Clear out your SD on your computer (back it up first), format it, and you should be good to go
It's usually the SD when this happens
Hi,
I hope you can help.
I recently changed the ROM on my HTC HD2 to the Cruzer series. This worked fine. However, since the rom change, the phone itself has since been stuck in safe mode for all my Android Builds.
I have tried everything to get out of it, by holding down the menu and power keys on boot up, taking out the battery and leaving it out. I have also re-flashed the phone with the new wm ROMs several times, but it's still the same for me in Android
Do you think this is a genuine fault with the phone, or is it something to do with the Rom change and how to get out of safe mode? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Backup your sd card, then delete the old data.img out of the Android folder. There may have been something happen that makes it boot into safe mode.
You will loose all your setttings, contacts and apps installed and it will take a long time for the 1st boot as it is making a new data.img. This might help. At the very least you are assured that it is or isn't the data.img. And as you backed up its easy to replace if it still boots in safe mode.
ultramag
Thanks for the advice. I will try your suggestion. I have tried to reload numerous builds though, since this problem has plagued my android please. All of them complete re installs. With safe mode returning each time.
Marsbar
If the data.img isn't the culprit maybe the SD card needs to be formatted. I use the format utility in winmo (fd10 format utility if it isnt included in your winmo rom search the forums to download it). Just backup all your data, format it, and then load it back up. Hope this helps.
I don't knwo where to post this exactly so here it goes.
I installed revolution 2.09 on my rooted HTC HD without any problems.
Run perfectly. Then today I installed a ROM of a theme from this forum as well called media 1.3 with rom manager.
After the reboot my phone only shows a the text android with a slight moving glow over it. It does not repsond to anything any more. I removed the battery but the same thing is happening.
Did I brick it? What can I do?

thats just the default android boot screen, looks like the theme messed up your framework... hold on i'll make a .zip you can flash from recovery to fix it
Thanks, but how do I get the zip on the phone? It does not react to anything anymore. I attahced it to my PC but nothing....

im just downloading the rom for you now so i can extract the framework, if you pull your battery out, you can either plug in your charger while its off, this will bring up recovery, or while its off, hold vol down and press power, that will take you to bootloader, and just pick recovery from the list, now when in recovery, if you navigate to the mounts and storage menu, choose the option mount usb storage, you can now connect to a pc as a disk drive and copy stuff to your sd card
im having trouble uploading attachments to xda at the min dya want me to upload it to megaupload for you?
AndroHero,
Thank you for helping me out. I didn't know about the vol down press power option which allows you to acces the sd card and intall a new rom. I had the revolution rom 2.0.9 already. It's installing as we speak. Much thanks for the tips!
To early hooray. I choose the option with the revolution zip for a complete install. After the install I selected rebouut system now. Now it stays on the white HTC screen with the text HTC quitely brilliant. Flashing every 3 seconds or so....
What to do now?
Everything is resolved. revolution is up and running again. I had to un the fullwipe.zip and that did it!
THANKS a lot for all the tips....again

Did you do a full wipe before re-flashing your ROM? even if you did just repeat the process , full wipe /cache, /dalvik-cache, /system and then re-flash the rom fingers crossed it should work
Hi,
I am having a similar problem. I tried flashing the cyanogen mod and after installing it the phone doesnt boot up. Its stuck on the t-mobile boot up logo. Ive tried restoring my back up but I get the same problem.
Any help would be great!

Could it be possible that you installed cwm 3005 and tried a restore with that. I had the same problem. Went back to cwm 2.5.x and then restore worked.
Sent from my Desire HD
I think there will be a lot of scare because of this CWM 3x...
Same happened to me the other day, stupidly accecpted the update prompt from Rom Manager, did my backup and went to install Cyanogen 6... Got stuck at HTC logo next boot.
Thankfuly, had Leedroid 2.0 on the SD, too, and that one flashed properly
Thing is that when I try to downgrade the Recovery to 2.5x I get an error and really can't be bothered with ADB pushing stuff around, so using Cyanogen 7 for the time beeing
Anyhow, CWM 3.x is likely your problem, easy to fix ^^
Wanting to change my theme on the Samsung spica I had theexact problem on cyanogen mod. Had to redo the whole rooting and installing the Rom again to get to work.

yes, is some script...back to recovery 2.x
Hello everybody
Just to describe the problem I quote what I've written here:

Hello everybody
I've got a little problem... after a system crash (don't ask me how that happened) I had to re-flash my ROM. Now, after the reboot the "H" was flashing on my screen and turning around 'n around 'n around... after 30 minutes I plugged out the battery and re-plugged it in. Since then I’m not able to boot into Android, I only get the “Android” Text and Logo on my screen but the “H” doesn’t appear anymore.
I tried to re-flash the Rom and also wipe my device (task29), re-flash clk (I got now the 5.0.2 ClK Recovery) and HBoot. But I’m not able to boot the device. I also tried to flash other CM7 Roms (Partition 160 MB, Cache 5MB) but it doesn’t work for me
Anyone got an idea?

There are two ways of fixing this problem. One way requires you to use Mutty and was technical and mayby had a chance destroy your NAND, I don't remember because it was a while ago I was researching this.
The other solution which is what I recommend and did because it is a lot simpler and easier is to work around your corrupted block. You can do this a couple of ways:
Firstly, a way is to use CLK 1.5 to move a partition over the problem. For instance if you had a bad block around 25 put the first partition recovery partition to 30 MB. Then you can enjoy flashing ROM's again without the NAND problem. I have this solution working now.
Secondly, another simpler way is to use an Android SD ROM to bypass the corrupted block on you internal NAND now and forward into the future.
For more information about bad NAND blocks and to figure out if you have them and where they are go to:

We'll thank you for your fast answer. I tried various sizes of the partitions but none worked for me. I now got a error msg in H Boot "A unrecoverable error occurred" and the phone shots down. Also I don't get any of the "bad block" errors in my recovery log when erazing and re-installing a ROM.
I hope you can help me out
Can I use a SD Rom and boot it via H Boot?
Edit 2: So now after flashing a ROM and rebooting with Clockwork Mod it starts himself, than shuts himself down after a few seconds with the HTC Logo, than boots into H Loader... and always the same error message: "A unrecoverable error occurred, rebooting to Bootloader"

I now reinstalled everything with the American Android starter Kit, installed CLK 1.4.0.1 & RUU 190 _ 5 image (190 system, 5 cache) and tried to flash a ROM.
ClK Fastboot stops saying:
fastboot_init()
udc_start()
-- suspend --
What can I do now?
Yes I already tried to wipe dalvik cache, format boot.... I think the problem must be somewhere else...
Please help me!!
Well it seems that I fixed the problem... I found a old Backup from a new flashed ROM in Clockwork Recovery. I flashed that and my phone did boot again.
Cannot understand what happend. Is it possible that moving the ROM files to flash on the sd card can corrupt them?

Alright, heres what I did.1. Rebooted in*CWM2. Wiped data/factory reset3. Wiped cache partition4. Wiped dalvik cacheAt this point I couldn't reflash because I forgot I couldn't access my SD card, I kept getting the "e:can't mount /sdcard" message whenver I went to install zip from sd card.5. Took off the back and pooped out the SD card and put it right back in. Seemed to work6. Flashed 2.07. Flashed kejar's sd card fix8. Rebooted through*CWMPhone starts up, do all the set up stuff, but still can't access my sd card or anything. Booted back into*CWM*just to see and was getting the "e:can't mount /sdcard" error again and couldnt reflash anything, so back to step 1.Here's a list of other things I have done since the original crap out a few days ago that might be affecting this.*1. Yesterday I tried reflashing 2.0 and it seemed to be boot looping again. So I just wiped data and cache partition and flashed 1.9.1 that I had on my SD card. Was having the same problems so that was the only time I tried it. Not sure if built in kernels might affect anything or whatever.2. After it seemed like I had a stable 2.0 again last night. I flashed blue*CWM*because I've had yellow this whole time. I also flashed EP1 radios through ODIN because I was planning on going to GG 2.1 (I was following your video dave! its awesome btw*).I'm not sure at what point I lost access to my SD card. Ive read a lot this morning about voodoo lag fix affecting things. Could this be a problem with what I've done?

If you have decided to reflash then use ROM provided by 'voluptuary' (3.10a). And moreover, to flash, it would not matter if your battery is getting charged. Just plug the device to your PC using the USB cable and flash the device.
Be VERY sure you flash the correct ROM for your phone. If you have a version 1.3, then ONLY flash 1.3 ROMs to it. If you have a version 1.4, then ONLY flash 1.4 ROMs to it. You can find the version number under the battery on the sticker. If you flash the wrong version of ROM to it, you will end up with a brick.
When having problems like this, I would recommend flashing the Stock ROM to it first to set everything back to normal. Then, if that works fine, go to custom ROMs if desired. Stock flashing will replace everything back to new settings, including spl, radio, etc... Some of the custom ROMs are truly worth flashing, FASTER, stable, nice features.
