Hello, when I tried to update my Magic to a new radio something went wrong. Start-up screen freezes. Only fastboot and recovery are available.
Now, when I trie to restore my nandroid backup in recovery I get the message:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0
p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E: Can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/
And it's not the SDcard that's malfunctioning...
When I trie it with fastboot I get:
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash system system.img
sending 'system' (80002 KB)... OKAY
writing 'system'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (2560 KB)... OKAY
writing 'boot'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot flash userdata data.img
sending 'userdata' (132301 KB)... OKAY
writing 'userdata'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
I've searched everywhere for a solution for this problem, and tried everything but nothing helped. So I hope someone can help me here...
These are the specifications of my phone:
SAPPHIRE PVT 32A ENG S-ON H
HBOOT-1.33.2010 (SAP10000)
RADIO-6.35.10.18
The original radio was 3.22.20.17
I had recovery-RA-sapphire-v1.6.2H, but after my failed radio update, it rebootet after 2 seconds...so now I use recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2 to enter my recovery. This one works, doesn't reboot, but I don't have acces to my SDcard.
Thanks for you're help!
How long are you waiting after booting to Recovery before trying the restore? I think there's an issue with the amount of time it takes to mount the SDCard. Try waiting for a bit. It does work for me, but not if I immediately try to backup/restore after entering Recovery. I usually wait a couple of minutes.
well...I've waited 10 minutes...but still the same response...
If I see your specifications, I see that your phone is OFF and mine ON, in another tread someone said that the "ON"-sign was the reason for not having acces to the Sdcard... :s But I'm not sure this is true...
Even...everything I trie to flash with fastboot (so I don't need acces to my SDcard I guess...) doesn't work...due to that signature verify failure... Maybe there is a solution for that problem...?
Hey it seems you really have a problem.
The hboot version is not right for your radio version. You obviously did not follow the very clear howto by cursordroid, easily found in the android development section. I'm not sure how to solve this, but you must first look for some way to upgrade the SPL to the version that works correct with new radio.
Hi...yes... I updated the radio on a wrong way...
I already thought that this new radio and 'old' SPL were the reason why this doesn't function anymore...
I already tried to update the SPL on different ways... With recovery I don't have acces to my SD card and with fastboot I get the same response as above... I don't think there is another way... :s
I really screwed up this time...I hope someone can help me out... This is the first time this happens to me but it will be the last
Woww you're so lucky you didn't brick. Love it when people fail to follow simple instructions! And how would a nandroid restore help? Since when does that restore radio/spl. Also how did you manage to get the hero recovery on there? Did you flash the recovery then radio?
Since you're using the hero recovery, it takes some time to mount the sd card. SO wait a bit when you try this
Try this,
1) fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
2) If that doesn't work, you're sort of screwed. I'm not sure if it will work since youre s-on
3) If it works, flash the old radio in recovery.
4) I'd try goldcard if none of the above works
Hi...thanks for the help!
Well, I read somewhere that I could use that hero recovery... So I use fastboot to boot the recovery on my Magic, that's the only way to enter the recovery.
I first flashed recovery sapphire 1.6.2H, made a back-up and then I flashed the radio...
I tried what you asked and I got this:
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
... INFO[ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY
So...I guess I'm screwed...?
Re: Huge problem to restore nandroid backup - "can't mount SDCARD:/nandroid/"
If your phone really fails to mount the sdcard in recovery, even after waiting a while, you might still be able to flash a correct engineering spl if your recovery allows you to connect by adb. The idea would be to push the img to /cache and flash it from there, using the adb command line. I have never tried that though so no guarantees.

Hi, yes, I waited 30minutes...still no result... should I wait longer?
I found the correct engineering spl and I can connect by adb...
Could you tell me which commands I have to type in cmd to push the engineering spl (.zip) with adb?
Thanks!
PM me if you haven't solved the problem yet.
I haven't solved the problem yet.. Could you tell me which commands I have to type for adb in command prompt? This is the name of the .zip file "update.Engineering-SPL-HBOOT-1.33.2009-signed"
Thanks for the help man... But I didn't succeed yet...I didn't get an error message but something went wrong... This is until where I got:

I didn't know for sure what you ment with '(the hboot file must be present in the current folder of course)' so pasted the SPL "hboot-1.76.2007" on my SDcard and in AndroidSDK/tools
Then I did this:
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb shell
/ # flash_image hboot /cache/hboot-1.76.2007.img
flash_image hboot /cache/hboot-1.76.2007.img
can't find hboot partition
It could be that you did forget a 'space' between boot and cache so I tried this:
/ # flash_image hboot /cache /hboot-1.76.2007.img
flash_image hboot /cache /hboot-1.76.2007.img
usage: flash_image partition file.img
/ # reboot bootloader
reboot bootloader
When I rebooted in bootloader everything was still the same... Did I do something wrong?
Already thanks for the great help!

this should be
Code:
C:\AndroidSDK\tools>adb push hboot-1.76.2007.img /cache
when the hboot file is in your tools folder. You got a usage message from the command, that means the command was malformed. So the rest couldn't work either. And no I did not miss any space in the flash_image command.
Damn, sorry to disappoint but I did some more research and I think my idea won't work after all
the Sign is on, and you have to turn it off. Use the goldcard method and use:
http://rapidshare.com/files/267446145/2.53.707.2_-_sappimg.zip
to turn it off, and start the flasshing process again for safe keeping.
Instructions:
http://translate.google.pt/translat...ss.C3.A1rio_para_fazer_o_processo&sl=pt&tl=en
If you want try flash using HTC Magic oficial update and start the process all over again for safe keeping.
Hope it helps
i was reading things better. Have you tried to download a oficially signed from HTC Hboot and in fastboot flashing it ? If you sucessed you could reverse the process
PS: does anyone know to explain me why did this exacly happened?
Jup...still no difference...
Thanks drbobb for all the effort and time! If there really is no other way to make it work than the goldcard method... I should try this one...but read it first a few times...
Jgcaap... Thanks for the help.. I explained on the first page how I get this far... Updated my radio on a wrong way :s
how did you update the radio ? Sorry to ask again but in the first page isnt expressed if you done by flashing procedure (USB) or by other method (Recovery).
Well...i don't know for sure but I think I just flashed a new radio (.zip) file in recovery... Without using fastboot...
Well according to the studies the most safe is in fastboot, in recovery you can also flash but there is always a risk since the recovery might not be 100% safe to flash. But you still havent done anything else? Please try remember because there must be a way of exploiting to make the phone work again.

How to Remove Bloatware from the Velocity Cruz Tablet
Downloads and Setup
Unfortunately, I can't post links in the forum (yet!). For the links to these sources, check out my post with the same title on the Slatedroid Forum...If someone with link posting privileges would be willing to add the links below, I would greatly appreciate it.
1] Download and install the ADB drivers on your device from the Velocity Micro support site. Detailed instructions are available on their site.
2] Download and install the Android SDK on your computer.
3] Connect your Tablet to your computer via the USB cable and mount the device
4] Open your SDK directory on your desktop computer and navigate to the tools directory
5] Write down or copy the directory path to this tools directory (you will use it again below!)
Remove the Bloat
6] For Windows users, select Run from your Start menu
7] Type cmd.exe in the text field and click ok
8] At the command line, use the following series of commands:
cd C:\xxx\android-sdk-windows\tools (where the xxx is the path to your SDK directory)
adb shell (you should see a # sign after this)
cd /system/app (this changes your directory to the app directory on the Tablet where the apk's are located)
ls (optional: will allow you to view all of the apk's that are installed so that you know what to remove)
mount -o remount,rw /system (provide yourself with write permission on the system directory to remove files)
Then for each of the apk files that you want to remove, type:
rm /system/app/filename.apk (replace filename with the actual name of the file)
You can change the system directory permission back to read only with the following command if you would like:
mount -o remount,r /system
Copy and Paste
>cd C:\xxx\android-sdk-windows\tools
>adb shell
# cd /system/app
#ls
#mount -o remount,rw /system
#rm /system/app/filename.apk
#mount -o remount,r /system
i want to unlock USB mass storge mode so that i can do error check on the disk.. i can see it only supports MTP or PTP only... is there any other way to unlock mass storage mode or any other way to error check the device ( i have tried a app from playstore to mound as mass storage but no luck)
using a terminal emulator from playstore
[email protected]:/ # su
[email protected]:/ # cd system/bin
[email protected]:/ # mount | grep -i sdcard
[you will see the mount path here]
[email protected]:/ # fsck_msdos -y [path here]
Could u please explain
Hi,
I downloaded terminal and did the thing, but i failed to get the path as i didn't get what you said.. So could u please explain how to activate mass storage mode in yureka after lollipop update...
Any help will b appreciated.
Thanks in advance
