Hey guys,
I'm trying to boot into recovery mode on my Legend, but I've had no success as of now. I've tried using Rom Manager to boot to recovery and I've tried backing up my current Rom as well, but all I get is a phone with a red exclamation mark beside it. I've tried booting into fastboot, (Holding down the volume down button and power button) and hit the "Recovery" button, but still no luck. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
PS: Sorry for posting two threads in two days.
EDIT: Solved. For those having a similar problem, all I had to do was run the recovery once from my PC using the file "Recovery-windows" in the Legend tools. It had to push the recovery files into my Legend again because I factory reset it a couple weeks ago. I've been trying to fix it for hours, love getting to the bottom of things.
This also works:
When you get to the red triangle of doom press volume up and power. Then using the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select choose "install update.zip" (something like that, I honestly can't remember what of actually says) then observe as your phone ends up in recovery.

Hi,
I am new to HTC legend. I have a similar problem, can you please tell me what uyou refer to by "run the recovery once from my PC using the file "Recovery-windows" in the Legend tools." What program is that and how do I get it?
Thanks in advance.
Collectric: have you tried holding the volume up button and then pressing the power button?
For me it takes a few moments of pressing power but then a green box appears and i can move on.

Of course I pressed power and volume down, that's basic.
Unfortunately, I made a stupid mistake and tried to replace the recovery file using
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=833423
which was prepare for Samsung phone (having the naive thought that Android is the same Android for every one ).
Since then I lost the possibility to go into recovery mode, and the author of the above mentioned program is not answering me, so now I am tryoing to look for a way to "recover" recovery mode ....
Thanks anyhow...
Well when I rooted my phone with theunlockr.com they gave us a legend tools folder and it has the recovery tools to push the recovery files into the phone which worked for me and I can then go into recovery freely I'll give you the link soon.

EDIT: Okay here it is http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-root-the-htc-legend/ make sure you download ONLY the "Legend Rooting Tools" and ONLY that you don't need anything else. Unzip the Legend Root Folder in the root of C:/ Also please do not follow the steps they mentioned as your phone is already rooted.
Here are the steps you should do:
1. Unzip the Legend Root Folder to "C:/"
2. Go to the folder in the "C:/" it should be called "R4-legend-root"
3. Put your phone in recovery mode using the power + volume down and click recovery in the PHONE not the PC.
4. When you're on the red triangle of doom (Make sure you are!) click "Recovery-windows" in the PC (Again located in the r4-legend-root folder which you unzipped)
5. A black box should come up pushing the files to your phone
6. Your phone should be in recovery mode
7. You can now go into recovery mode freely using ROM Manager instead of the computer like I do.
PS: Sorry for the late reply I was off on vacation.
Many thanks man, no need to apologize...
Well, the whole point is that strangely enough I CAN'T go into recovery mode on my phone...
Since that stupid act of trying to work with the Samsung program, when I press power and volume down I get into "Factory mode" which gives me the options to test my device, clear the flash and Reboot.
I don't even have the option to go into recovery mode...
I can try and copy all those files manually, as my phone is rooted. I will copy the files from PC into my SD then move them with my phone "total commander" into the proper folders in the root flash.
Does it sound like a plan?
Thanks again
Hi,
As you probably guessed, root is read only, so I met a dead end. I have no way to go into recovery mode thus can't replace any file in root.
I tried to reboot to recovery using "adb reboot recovery", the phone reboots and get stuck with green HTC on the screen - I had to remove battery, put back, press power with volume down to enter "Factory mode", select reboot and get again normal operation.
Any innovative idea?
Thanks in advance...
Maybe you can try to reroot your phone using the unlockr.com method. But I'm not a specialist at these kinds of issues, I wish to be more help. But is there any you can try to reroot your phone using theunlockr.com method?
Yes, I am working on it but I am not so optimistic as, on the way, they also instruct to go into recovery mode. Anyhow, till I discover something better I'll give it a shot.
Many thanks on your assistance.
As I suspected, its a vicious circle, all the repair methods eventually end in the recovery mode. To recover recovery mode I have to go into recovery mode - sad but seems to be true. I will try to open a new thread maybe there is some Android sage with some trick in the sleeve for me....
Thanks again
I'm sorry I couldn't be of help. If you do manage to get it fixed please tell me how you did it because it would be very useful to know recovery mode is essential for every phone. Thank you and sorry again.

Hi guys, I have a rooted HTC Legend and was trying a new ROM "New Sense ROM" and after I installed it, I am not able to root into recovery mode even the ROM Manager says "Successfully installed Clockwork Mod Recovery". It gets stuck at /!\ Red Exclamation Mark. I tried pushing recovery files to phone using PC from 'r4-legend-root' folder which I got from www.theunlockr.com but it simply doesn't woirk.

I had a problem with the red exclamation mark when trying to load the recovery image on my phone after rooting with the method on theunlockr.com.
To solve it download a recovery image from here, rename it "update.zip" and placed it in the root of your sdcard.
Then boot up your phone and attempt to load recovery as before by pressing the power button and volume DOWN. When you get to the red exclamation mark screen, press and hold volume UP and the power button. This should bring up the Android system recovery. Select flash update.zip and this will flash and load the recovery image.

Hey, I've been doing this for few months now every time I need to enter recovery after I recovered from a bootloop for installing CM7.
However, is there a way to permanently remove this 'wrong' feature by having to manually click update.zip every time? Can I just restore my Legend back to the original state where it would automatically enter recovery without having to press "Vol Up + Power Button" combo and applying update.zip?
Thanks!

If you look at the top line of the bootloader screen it will have the phrase
'S-ON' somewhere; this means 'security on'. The result is that the /system and /recovery partitions are read-only.
There are instructions here on how to S-OFF the Legend. (xda discussion thread here)
I haven't done it myself. Personally, I felt that the risks of bricking and the time spent researching and doing it outweighed the benefits of a writeable /system and /recovery partition.

So are you saying that this "extra step" resulted from the fact that my phone is still S-ON? If that is so, I guess the benefits of this read-only system allows me to flash ROMs much easier (without having to connect to ADB).
Thanks!
I'm not sure if this is gonna help, but you can try pressing the "BACK" button while pressing power on?
Hi everyone, so I bought an hd2 that was already installed with android.
I want to reset it because the guy's google account keeps popping up and I can't reset it, even through the settings tab and by holding the volume buttons with power button.
I want to reset everything but where do I start? thx.
if you use magldr hold the power button down when booting all the way thrufh go go go
next choose AD recovery option 8
nafter recovery boots ... choose wipe data its like the 3rd option in recovery
after that competes reboot phone and setup to your desires

IF you want/need some help still ill be more than willing to help. we all started off not knowing what the hell we were doing and more than a little scared of turning our beautiful HD2 into a paperweight!
ok i successfully reset'd my hd2 guys, what I did was in the magldr boot menu, i chose AD hardreset and it worked lol! thx everyone!
HI all, thank you for your time.
I recently inherited a htc hd2 that has android 2.3.4 on it, model T8585 baseband ver maui.11amd.w11.19.sp.v1, 2011/06/23 00:50. kernel 2.6.35.7. build number 10hx2p.h3.111121.ad2_3_4_v1.wvgac_cn.com_v01_3g.
I don't know what any of that means but for 3 days I have been trying to put ICS on my phone but cant get any of the apps to connect to the phone via usb, htc sync, win mod sync, no rom apps connect, moborobo will connect, and accessing the sd works but that is all.
I do not have clockwork recovery and can not install, my recovery program is <3e>.
even though android is running on the phone it will not allow root access.
I have downloaded and installed all the java and sdk stuff, could not manualy install usb connection drivers, my os is win 7 64.
I am going mad, every turn seems to be a brick wall, but not a brick phone yet, please help!
don't worry
Hi dj,
well it sounds like the most important stuff should be on your phone. However, I'm missing the following information:
Do you have magldr or CLK installed?
To find out, do the following:
Turn on your phone (with the hangup-key), right after feeling the bootup vibration press and hold the hangup-key again.
If you have a working magldr or CLK installed it should show up now.
The version is also important, my MAGLDR is version "1.13".
Tell me what your phone has installed please and I'll try to help more.

thanks for the quick reply, no I can not install that stuff, when I go into recovery mode it is <3e> recovery not clockwork, I can not install them because my phone does not seem to support native usb, I have tryed to install them from the sd card, I have tryed to install CLK from the app at the google download store, nothing works, I have red that i should roll back rom to win but cant to that without htc or other sync working, I have read roll recovery back to <2e> using the sd card but cant do that, I cant even root the phone because everything requires that a usb sync work or that CLK already be on, I;m going round in circles.

okay, I don't know if I get you right? You have android on your HD2 but you don't have MAGLDR or CLK (those are bootloaders, not recoveries)?
Magldr looks like this: http://www7.pic-upload.de/17.02.11/n35i2xpo9mg.jpg
And you enter it this way (if you should have it): pull out battery -> put back in -> press and hold the power key until you see the magldr screen (takes maybe 5 seconds).
My problem is that I'm not sure how your phone is setup. Please try to clarify.
If you have or had a working android on your phone, I'm pretty sure that you also have MAGLDR or CLK installed.
However... if you don't have it yet please download the HD2-Toolkit from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19931919&postcount=50
Thats a good tool to install either: magldr or clk. And once you have it I'll try to help you with that.

I do appreciate your help, I had already installed the toolkit but it will not connect to the phone(no pc based "phone hacking"software will connect to the phone. the usb works fine only to access the sd card, moborobo will synch with phone but nothing else.
when i hold vol down and on, the phone boots into <3e> recovery, <3e> is not an emoticon, it is the name of the recovery app the phone boots into, not any clockwork, magldr thing.
I think I could sort it all out one way or another if I could flammin ROOT! my phone, but all the methods I have found involve using a sync program that i cant use because they will not communicate with the phone.
I know it seems strange that a windows phone has android on it without being rooted or having other stuff going on, but I assure you this is the case.
I'm obviously missing something but I don't know what it is??? I's there a way to root the thing from the sd card, or is there a hidden box that i just have to check to access the root? I'm lost bro http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/eek.gif
PLEASE DON'T follow those steps. As Nigeldg pointed out: there are incorrectnesses in my post!
Follow this link instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044830
Okay, I think I kinda get where you're stuck at.
Here is what I think I would do, just out of my memory:
- Install the Toolkit again. Start program and in there download the drivers (button in the right corner) and install them properly.
- Boot phone and press down the volume down key (exactly like this: click on power button, release power button, hold volume down and keep holding), to get into three color screen.
- Connect your phone via usb and wait until it says USB on the phone (instead of serial)
- if it should not switch to USB, your Windows does not connect to your phone, because of a driver problem (maybe you have to reboot your pc once?!)
- start your toolkit
- press Wipe (Task 29) --> this will erase everything on your phones NAND
- follow instructions
- next press install HSPL
- follow instructions
- reboot phone
- press Install MAGLDR
- follow instructions
- boot phone and keep holding the power button until you see the MAGLDR menu
- move down to "5. USB Flasher" (with volume down)
- press call button to enter
- wait until it says USB....USB
- in the Toolkit, on the left side choose your partition size (my suggestion 200mb main and 45 cache)
- press repartition
- follow instructions
- reboot phone into MAGLDR again and move down to "8. AD Recovery"
- press call button to enter
- move down to mounts and storage
- press call button to enter
- mount USB-Storage (your sd-ccard)
- your computer should show your SD-Card
- download your favorite ROM and move the .zip to the SD-Card
- back on your phone unmount USB-Storage
- go back with back button
- move down to "install ZIP from SDcard" and choose the desired zip file
- follow the installer and reboot into MAGLDR afterwards
- in MAGLDR move down to "10. Services"
- press call button to enter
- and press call button again on "1. Bootsettings"
- and again on "1. Boot Source"
- then move down to "2. Android from NAND"
- and finally press call button to finish this
- Now move cursor to "3. Boot AD NAND" and press call button.
-> Your phone should boot up android and set it up for you, give it some time, even after seeing the login screen.
Reading your last answer, I think your problem is right at the beginning of what I wrote. You can't even get into the 3 color screen?!
If this should not work please tell me at what point of my instructions you are stuck.

Nigeldg said:
@OP, Actually please don't follow that guide. Just reading a few lines shows that:
1. It says to Task29 (never a necessary step)
2. It then says 'install HSPL'. Either HSPL 2.08 is already installed (so this step isn't needed) or you've just messed up your phone by trying to flash Task29 without HSPL
3. It says to repartition with a 200MB system and 45MB cache - you actually repartition as per the ROMs requirements, and 45MB cache is just a waste of space (most ROMs recommend 5, people have flashed as low as 2MB without issue)
4. It says to transfer the ROM to your SD card via CWM, which can cause the .zips to be corrupted. Always transfer via an SD card reader if possible, or within an OS (not MAGLDR or CWM).
5. It says that you have to set the boot settings to AD NAND when you don't
Whilst it's great that you're trying to help people out and write your own guides, don't do so when you're ill-informed and don't really know what you're doing. It's best just to stick with already existing guides.
@OP, try the guide in my sig if you're looking for one which is easy to follow, has clearly outlined steps and is (most importantly) correct.

" Boot phone and press down the volume down key (exactly like this: click on power button, release power button, hold volume down and keep holding), to get into three color screen".
when I follow this step my phone goes into <3e> recovery, not red blue green clockwork, "<3e>" is my recovery, it is a screen with "!" in a triangle and a little android dude.
my recovery does not let me install unsigned stuff so even though I can put things on the sd card, I can not install them from there.
the phone does not sync with any toolkit, install, htc, win, android, or other even though htc, and android drivers are in my device driver list.
my phone is not rooted.
I do appreciate all your help guys, I will keep looking arround the forum, I found some posts about my <3e> recovery and mods so it will allow install of non signs apps, peace.

This may sound silly but always best to check the simple things 1st, do you have windows mobile device center installed?
I am not entirely convinced you have a HD2. you may have a clone.
I'm inclined to believe RobbieP's right. I've never heard of this recovery ever being used on an HD2. You claim that you're not rooted (all of the HD2's ROMs are rooted bar the DFT Stock Desire ROM) and you also say that when you boot up there is an ! in a triangle. None of these things should really be happening on an HD2.
Secondly, you seem to be very confused about your terms. Please read the guide in my sig about that, as if you somehow do have an HD2 then you should be aware of all of those things before flashing.
If possible, could you post some pictures of your phone and also the settings info etc.? It might help in determining if it's a fake.

Yeh, it's installed, but just to be certain, after your question, I reinstalled it, still no good.
Im going to try to root the phone latter, will look around on this forum for a non usb style root.
yeah I suppose it could be fake, I have only seen on forums of Samsung phones using this recovery, It was bought on eBay cheep, when I do a factory reset it goes Asian on me, it looks exactly like the hd2.
As far as getting some terms mixed up, sorry, I had put in a lot of reading and trial and error before asking for help, It's hard to gauge how long to grind away at something before asking for a tip.
I will post some pics of the phone latter

Hi there!
I bought a HD mini, and I wanted install android to device, but it not working! :/
I downloaded these files:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756672
and I followed the nex steps:
1- Beginning, Extract the "LK Boot" to some where you like to begin, open folder and extract the "LK Boot Photonic SDCard.zip" and copy its files in "LK Boot Photonic SDCard" without folder to the Root of SDCard, also copy the Google Apps with CM9 Photon ROM to SDCard.
2- Installing Recovery, In the Phone WM6.5, Open Explorer and navigate to SDCard and touch at HaRET, or if you're on another CWM Recovery, Restart & in White HTC press & Hold Volume Down until you're in FastBoot Mode, You should be in Fast Boot Mode to Install Recovery both in WM6.5 or others, Connect the USB cable to the PC (it may ask you the Divers needed for the device) and the Drivers are in the folder in "LK Boot - Photon" in "Google Windows USB driver" folder. After that click on “Update.bat” and Install both of them, when it’s finished fine try reboot it.
But when I running the HaRET after I running update.bat and pressed the "2" button and pressed enter--> It worked normally on my pc, but after I pressed the volume up, and the phone didn't reboot! :/
It stop the white HTC screen and not write under HTC quietly brilliant, and not boot up! :/
Please help me!
After I want install the stock RUU Rom, but I always have ERROR [294], and I don't know which ROM need for my device!
I remember my rom type was WWE, but I don't know more from this! :/
Please help me!!
SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH! :/
So you have opened HaRET on your phone, and after this you should see some blue text texts on your phone, Then open update.bat while the USB must be connected with drives installed, press number one, then press number 2. which you will see immediately recovery on your phone.
and Remember, your recovery must be installed correctly or you won't see recovery by holding volume up, so you have to hold volume down while restart to resinstall recovery again by pc.
This is okay, but now the my phone don't boot up and I don't know how to I fix it, because the phone freezes at the HTC logo :/
Could you help me?

When I type task 37 it give a lot of information from my device for example: Country ID 0X30
My Phone ID PB92100
I tried a lot of factory reset, and it dont't help :/
On my device was WWE system, but I downloaded the all which I found on shipped-roms.com, but I get Error 294 always :/

Good :good:, but you could do that by yourself... anyway good that your phone have been fixed. Android or WM6.5?
Now running WM 6.5 on the device ):
I tried install android again, and I installed lk bootloader, and recovery, do wipe, installed the ROM from sd card and reboot the phone, but the problem is that the phone write lk bootloader's blue text, and don't boot up with android :/
If I install recovery again, and make wipes, and format in mount and storage data, cache and the system, after I install the ROM and google apps and after I press the reboot system now it solve my problem?

Good to understand
So you can see the Recovery, but is it when you pressed volume up? or you used PC?
when you installed correctly the Recovery, you will never need PC again even if you wanted to change android ROMs.
answer me These:
Pull battery out and put it to device, Now Hold and press Volume UP + (still press on it your finger) then Power on device, until that you should see the recovery.
if you saw recovery, for this time only... just install the ROM zip ONLY (don't do anything nor formats!), and don't do anything other, after finished installation, restart your phone. and tell me what happens. and you should see installation completed or Phonerty texts! after that restart.

Please, could anyone help me to solve the above? has anyone experienced this?
Thank you
First of all, do you want android or Windows?
for android, when you see "ENTERING FASTBOOT MODE" then you can reinstall the Recovery and go!
Thanks for replying.
I just want my phone work again, so either Windows or Android...
But with android, i already intalled LK Boot (the message appears in blue now) then i installed the recovery from SC Dard but when the phone boots, it's only showing the black screen with message (in blue). With windows I stuck with the ''Invalid vendor ID'' while installing with RUU (I can't determinate my Vendor ID). So please help
Regards

You had Android before as you said, so you can come back to android easily. just be really sure you have reinstalled the Recovery correctly! (Even this happened to me, but at last you will Pass!)
have you tried to manually enter recovery by VolumeUp?
Please tell us the ROM you want to use.
I can't enter recovery manually, only with PC (with CWM LK Boot Recovery's update.bat file). when i power on the phone holding volume up, the phone displays this message (in blue = meaning that the LK Boot is installed):
nand id: 0x5500bcec maker=0xec device=0xbc
press VOLUME UP for RECOVERY
press VOLUME DOWN for FASTBOOT
flash_read_image: failed (319 errors)
ERROR: Cannot read recovery_header

The rom i installed is Phonerty-MIUIv4-2.10.26
Thank again for replying
PS: this is what happens when i power phone holding Volume + :
nand id: 0x5500bcec maker=0xec device=0xbc
press VOLUME UP for RECOVERY
press VOLUME DOWN for FASTBOOT

Good,
When you can't enter Recovery manually (Volume Up), means either it hasn't been installed correctly or you button is damaged. Yes LK Boot is installed (the blue texts) but the Recovery (graphic interface) seems hasn't been installed.
if you can enter Recovery by PC, why not format and install ROM there (don't restart)? you may pass anyway!
and the last thing, did you hold both Power and Volume up? you should just power then release it, but hold Volume UP, what we see in the text you showed us, the phone hasn't detect the pressed Volume Up.
Have a nice try!

I've also formatted before i install the ROM but no succes...
I don't think there is a problem with the volume up button 'cause i use it in the recovery and when i press both volume buttons and power button it leads me to the WP reset option (factory resset) and i use the volume up button to confim the action (restoring).
And, is there a way in can check my Vendor ID? 'cause i would like to install WP but fastboot doesn't give me the CID, the command ''fastboot getvar CID'' returns ''CID: '' then nothing. I'm so desesperate...
BR.
Going Back to WM you should have the right ROM, or contact HTC for the right one, read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21617447&postcount=2
And at last, what OS you want to be installed on your phone?
either Android or WP
but android would be better

Alright then,
You said you can't enter Recovery by VolumeUp, right?
if right, connect USB to PC, Click on Update.bat, press number one, then number two, and restart phone (don't unplug phone), when entered fastboot, press number two again, you may now enter manually recovery. if you couldn't pass, press number two and on your phone you would see recovery interface, format and install the ROM, unplug USB and restart phone.....
Okay, will try. thanks again

There is nothing no need to press power!
only volume button, you saw the interface and you have to use the touch arrows to begin.

yeah I mean those 4 arrow buttons which you should touch them. if you touch the arrow, the selection above will move. And there is no need to move by using Volume keys in Recovery.
using PC, it should be possible through terminal ADB, which are some codes for connection. but I don't support this way.
I recommended that you do it by using touch, if the four arrow touch doesn't work, then how can you use it with Android? especially the Phone app is in the four arrow button direction.

You should follow a guide, search for (Install ROM through adb, install ROM without SDCARD, install ROM via adb)
Anyway, I found this guide may help you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=911228
Remember to enter recovery as you did it (Volume + up), So follow the link above at your risk, you may skip the Wipe/format step.
