HTC hero bricked .help.....

I bought my HERO just a few days ago.
Once,the system halted and I took the battery out of the phone.
After that,when I turn on the phone,it show the first picture in the attachments
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and then only when I press the DIAL button ,the phone responses,and it shows the second picture in the attachments
I have checked that the buttons of the phone are all OK.
And I have sent it to someone to mend it,he said that the phone can not be connected to the computer,but he succeeded in flashing it with the miniSD memory card. BUT the phone still has the same problem.What's more ,the H-BOOT has been flashed by him from 1.76.005 to 1.76.007. But the problem still
exist....
Can anybody help me?...
And I'm from China,my English is not very good...

This might help...

EDIT: DON'T UPDATE TO 2.1 AGAIN SINCE IT WILL HANG ONE MORE TIME. WAIT FOR HTC TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE!!!!!!
EDIT 2: BACK UPP ALL YOUR DATA FROM YOUR MEMORY CARD FIRST!!!
EDIT 3: How did I find this out? I talked to a very helpful HTC suport rep (yes they do actually exist in Sweden). He helped me do these steps and so I thought I should share this.
Ok so you got a message that 2.1 was available for your Hero - FINELY! and you installed it using OTA. And then you got a triangle with a ! in it and you rebooted and all it says is "HERO".
This is how to solve it!
Take out your memory card. FORMAT TO <span style="font-weight:bold;">FAT32</span>!!!
Download the RUU 2.73.405.5 from HTC support homepage
Run the installation.
When it fails to find your phone <span style="font-weight:bold;">DON'T EXIT!!!</span>
If you are using Windows 7 go in to c:\Users\<span style="font-style:italic;">yourusername</span>\AppData\Local\Temp
Search for ROM.zip
Move to desktop
Rename to HEROIMG.zip
Transfer to your newly formated memory card now with FAT32 file system
Put memory card into phone
Start phone holding volume down pressed.
It will now check zip fil and then ask if you want to install.
homekey for YES
After installing you have 1.5 again and can safely upgrade to 2.1 OTA

[Q] Pattern Lock on 2nd hand Flipout?

Hi all,
I bit the bullet and picked up a 2nd hand OrangeUK Flipout (details available if I need to prove I bought it legally)... but the seller cannot remember the pattern to draw to access the phone.
How might I resolve this issue, please?
I can access the Bootloader, which is on v91.10, but that's all I've found so far.
I have found RSD Lite v5.6 and the USB Drivers from the MotoDev website.
Will flashing RUTEM_U3_01.19.2 (or any other RUTEM) onto the device ie following the Debranding Guide, reset this and allow me to start playing with Android?
What about the FlipOut Recovery?
Thank-you,
Dylan.

Wow. Err, okay, I wasn't expecting it to be that easy.
It only took a simple Hard Reset and it's fine - Back to the start as if seting up a brand new out-the-box phone!
In case any other fellow Noobie-Noobs encounters this issue, here's what I did:
Motorola Flipout (MB511) - Step by step hard reset
1/. Switch the device off - Hold the power button for a couple of seconds and then press Power Off
2/. With the device off, open it up, hold the X key and hold down the Power button until you see the Motorola M.
3/. Shortly after, an image like this will appear:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4/. TAP the power button to enter the Android System Recovery menu.
5/. Use the little D-Pad to select the 4th option - Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
6/. Press Enter to confirm.
7/. Confirm you want to reset the device.
8/. After the reset, go back into the System Recovery menu and select the 1st option - Reboot.
You should now have one factory-fresh phone!

[Q] Generic Tablet Problem (Android lying on his chest, doesn't matter what I do)

Hi, I'm not sure if I posted in good thread category, since I couldn't find a thread for my tablet, maybe I should explain why I posted in here:
It's a Generic tablet 703H I suppose, but I'm not sure if that's the model, it is running "Full AOSP on Rk29sdk" I suppose, (at least that's what AnTuTu benchmark told me before) I rooted the device using this and it WORKED, but when I decided to go into a recovery mode (I wanted to install CWM from here) but when I run my tablet with POWER and VOL+ (so I could enter STOCK recovery IF THERE IS ANY) all I got was an android lying on his back with opened chest, since that I can't do anything on it, I turn it off and on but nothing happens, I tried every keys and nothing helped. And when I plug the tablet so it will charge, I do not get battery animation, but yet again the same screen. But later I spotted that before that shows up it flashes with standing android with something blue spinning in his chest (Is it download mode maybe?) So I decided to plug the tablet to my laptop and see what happens. Before it was recignized as "Full" (ADB Drivers which I used to root) but now it showed up for a while as something about Nexus (not sure it google or galaxy) tablet. I am confused because now it again shows as Full. I wanted to flash it because it lags terribly (Android 4.0.4, kernel 3.0.8) and it bugs a lot (like "return" key was staying as "down" key)

If it's not the correct thread category please move it, I didn't find correct place for it by myself
I understand this is not Nexus tablet but still this is what USB drivers installed on my Win7 flashed me about
If it helps - I can use Ubuntu (most of things about computer I do through Ubuntu, yet never about any external devise)

Problem Solved
Fixed tablet with a bootable SD card, if it's needed I can post how I managed to fix it.

Hey there. Got the same problem. Tried everything. Nothing happens. Have you got your problem solved yet?

The same problem

Only way to solve this is taking the phone to technical service. Done it myself. Be careful tought, they will try to make you change the entire mother board (280€), but if you insist they will "find a way" to install the correct software in your phone and leave it as if it was new

it is possible to recovery via dongle ... but sn and imei can be lost

Try this thread.

Try this thread; it worked perfectly for me.

Brogotek MTK8667 Head Unit wont recover

Hi all
I have one of these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/384770479698 in my 2006 Merc. its a MTK8667 Android 11 based unit. FF_866X is the device name, i'm sorry I do not know the MCU
I was sent some update files from the seller https://we.tl/t-UeDC40i6Ul XRC-8667 升级软件 Q腾实UI多合一-国外-1280x720_v32_20220223
Upgrade steps
1) Unzip after downloading (only unzip once)
2) Copy the file to the U disk
3) Connect the U disk while the power is on
4) The machine will automatically upgrade
5) If the machine cannot be upgraded, you need to press RES and keep touching the display with two fingers
during the update process it copied the superimage ok but then something came up in red but it came up to a kind of recovery and said erasing... it then rebooted it gets to the car logo screen, before android screen then goes to a blank screen with the following in bottom left corner...FASTBOOT MODE and wont go any further
I have pressed RST then two fingers on screen until i get "detected" but all i get is the same fastboot mode again,
I have redownloaded and extracted the firmware and reformatted my usb drive to fat32 and tried the whole process again and tried in both usb slots but no sucess...what can I do?? is it broken??
I have obtained other mtk8667 firmware files 8667.bin and 8667.upd from this topic https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/firmware-junsun-v1-8667q-8g-128g-vhd-qled.4405475/ on this forum but I have tried many different ones and it just wont read the usb, still just goes straight to fastboot mode....is anyone able to help me I have messaged the seller but no reply
So far I have tried about 7 or 8 different firmware versions, the sellers own, some junsun versions, ossuret versions even xtrons versions(all in correct format of 8667.bin and 8667.upd on root of usb formatted to fat32 but it does not read the usb.
The usb slots are still working as I can plug my phone in and it charges but the unit does not seem to have a full recovery mode

I have messaged the seller (brogotek) on ebay but no reply as yet which is strange as they have always replied very quickly.
Do you think it is fixable? it was bought in April and ebay advert states it comes with 12 months repair or replace warranty
There just seems no way to get into any kind of recovery mode
