[Q] Need help to start from scratch - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello there!
I recently bought an HTC HD2 used online, I wanted to gift it to my father since he needs a new phone (stuck on an old Samsung with Symbian wich died) and the phone presents just one problem: when it reboots it resets back to factory settings, everytime.
It uses MAGLDR and I'm completely new to this software, so I really need help. I want to flash a new ROM to my device and wipe everything there is on the memory of the phone.
I've been lurking a lot the guide threads and been searching a lot on Google but made 0 progress so far, again, I'm completely new to this.
So I'm asking for help. I need someone to guide me and follow me through this process, 'cause I'm unable to proceed, I'm willing to dedicate all the time I have to do this.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Upgraded SX66 To WM6 (Helmi): Device Passcode No Longer Works

I'm hoping somebody here can help, because I'd hate to have to get rid of a device that I really love...
Used Helmi's WM6 (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...angel_WM6_Home) to upgrade from WM2003SE and everything was working beautifully!
I was absolutely LOVING the new software until my device just stopped accepting the passcode that I had been using for 2 years. What I don't understand is I had to use the passcode a few times after the upgrade and all was fine. What could have happened for it to suddenly change by itself (because I know it wasn't me)?
Someone at the PocketPCAddicts forum suggested that I locate an original factory ROM to wipe out everything on the device and try again from scratch. I've searched the web looking for such a beast and can't find one (since the manufacturer/carrier no longer support it).
Can someone here help?

Had the same problem...
Hi Debbie,
Same thing happened when I upgraded from WM2003 to the WM6 ROM. Unfortunately there was no solution and I just ended up disabling the password to ensure I never got stuck.
If you ever stumble upon a solution that works for you, I'd be happy to hear about it!
I'm about to try out the latest WM6.11 and hope it will have that particular issue solved - I'll let you know.

if you press and hold power+record+camera the same time and then reset you get to the boot loader.
you will see the 3 options, which i have fogotten, but if you put in the same options as instructions tell you after flashing a new rom, then push the mail button i believe, it will format you memory and you will be able to get back in again.
i had the same problem where i was locked out and i did that and just sync'd again to get back to my positon prior getting locked out.
hope that helps
Thanks, I will try it again.
Should I be able to simply repeat those steps, or should I start from the beginning? I don't have the device with me right now.
Thanks again,
Debbie
follow the instructions after the flashing the rom stage all the way to the end.
you choose to format memory on the gray screen with 3 options.
i flashed the wm6.1(5.2.19716) several days ago, and tested in several situations, my BA can remember the pw now, thanks for the hardwork of rom maker.
Thanks! (Now Internet Problem)
I got it to finally work, after getting a 3rd hand to help in the key combination/timing.
Only problem now is that my SX66 no longer connects to the Internet. Tried every setting/CAB I could find and no dice. AT&T tech and advanced tech support didn't help and I was told that the OS may have corrupted the connectivity.
Should I try loading another WM6 version?
Thanks again,
Debbie

Please help..stuck in tri-color

Hello all,
okay, this is the history...
I just recently got a brand new mogul with windows 6.1 from sprint 2 days ago. Everything was looking smooth, however, internet sharing was a problem- i could no longer use the internet on my laptop through the phone. In the process of trying to figure out how to do a registry edit, i ended downloading TitanUnlocker.exe and ran the program.
The problem...
I am currently stuck in the tri-color screen with SPL-1.20 Olipro bootloader and no longer able to load anything else.
the radio roms that are suppose to function with this bootloader no longer exist (dead links at fileshex).
Please help!
Regards,
eastbay80
Update
OK, I went through a number of steps to get my phone back to stock. Thanks to the forum for the info. If you were in the same situation as I was and would like me to elaborate...i can..

[Q] Unroot Orange Hero for fault repair?

Hey folks.
I've had a HTC Hero on Orange since launch. Recently got me an iPhone 4 so stopped using the Hero.
I went back to use it a couple of weeks ago and the screen seems to have stopped working correctly (there is another few threads about it) - It seems i'm going to have to send the phone back to be repaired..
Before I send it back, I'm going to have to un-root the device. I've had a look through these forums, the unlockr.com, android forums etc looking for how to's - Everyone seems to think its as easy as plugging the phone in and double clicking the RUU for Orange. Not for me it seems.
My SD card with my nandroid backups messed up just before I got my iPhone, so I don't have any nandroid backups available. All the RUU's I've downloaded give me an error about being unable to connect with the phone after restarting. I think its because I have a different recovery image installed.
Is there a one-click unroot/revert application available? Or can someone point me in the right direction of how to do it? I have googled, and searched, but so far I'm stumped..
Thanks in advance!

recovery problem on I-9505

Hi
A a few years ago I was a bit of a rom flashing addict and knew a little bit about my devices and stuff but then I went cold turkey and just used my devices. Basically I have forgotten an awful lot and I have a simple problem and would really appreciate it if someone could help me.
I used to use Nexus devices so everything was pretty easy but I did manage to install a custom rom on this phone and it worked great and I just used it.
It is the JDC Team ROM and it's version is 6.0.1, it has TWRP 3.0.2.0 on it.
Just recently I got hacked or a virus or something on my Microsoft account and I use my same email for that as I do for Google, so I changed the password for the google account (on the PC I wasn't even thinking of the phone at this point, I just knew I had to change my password.
Then the problems with the phone began, I logged into the account on the phone ok but when I went to do a backup I must have hit the wrong button in recovery because it asked about letting changes happen or something and whatever I did I am so out of touch and forgotten everything I must have chosen the option were it now will back up but it won't restore.
A year or two ago I probably would have known how to fix it but I am an older gentleman who played about with Android devices for a while a few years ago because it interested me and now after not participating for a year or more I can't really remember anything.
So please help me out and tell me how I can get back to being able to restore my backups again?

Motorola Moto G6 plus bootloop

Hi Everyone !
I've got a little reboot loop problem. I have bought a Moto G6 plus on Amazon past sunday. The fifth hour after I got it, it begin to bootloop. the only way to go throught, is by wipe/factory reset the phone. Neither the safe mode or anything else would work. 8 hours after the factory reset, the bootloop has happen again so I had return the phone, saying to myself: "I got the bad one in the batch". I receive a new one yesterday and unfortunately, it does the same thing . Pop on the Moto start screen, then "Hello moto", then the Lenovo label appear, finally I see my lock screen and all of this start again.
Now I'm think maybe its the data restore of my apps, because I restore from my "transit" phone, an old Samsung galaxy core on Android 4.4. Or its a software bug and may I can fix it ?
I asking your help today because, as a IT technician, I know that everything with a CPU can be diagnostise. I can easily go check the log but I can't understand the meaning of all I will read. For exemple, I got into it the last time the phone bootloop and I find something like this : Error 'slot' found in the device tree. I did some reasearch but found nothing.
Please, help me find out what is the problem so I will know exactly what to do with my phone. I pretty love Motorola and this model is awesome when it work.
Thank you,
Cédric.
p.s.: I speak french first, so I'm sorry for my mistake's writing.
