Hi,
I have a HTC Hero and the only buttons that work are the power and home button,only if I plug the phone to charger.If I press the 2 buttons,then the HTC powers off, and the only way to power it on again is to remove and reinsert the battery.Then the phone shows logo with box and HTC and then powers off.
That is all my HTC can do .
Is there a way to reset the phone to default software, to default settins ,or to default OS ... like android 1.0 ???
I cannot connect my phone to PC,because I get unknown device error ... when I plug it into the PC the orange LED is on and I can press power + home,then it starts and closes itself right away.
Do I need to install windows VISTA or LINUX to be able to connect my HTC to PC and fix it ?
If so ... how can I fix it then ?
what happened that brought your phone to this state?
installed radio for 2.1 v1.3 ... then installed android 2.1 v1.3 ... then installed radio and rom for 1.6 v2.0 , then installed radio for 2.1 and that was it.I restarted the phone and it got into this state
Then you have bricked your phone...
How can I repair my HERO?
This is what my HTC Hero shows for 5 secs,then it closes itself and I need to remove battery and reinsert to get same image for 5 secs.
No button works,except when I remove the phone from charge,then the power button works ... the phone starts and then it's dead.

PLease can anyone let me know the process to load a rom onto a HD2 that will not boot up....? Windows mobile device center will not detect it either. Bootlogger screen says I have SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE, and underneath it says CotullaHSPL if that is any help. I would really appreciate any help!

After task 29 you have to flash a ROM. Task 29 wipes your device so if you don't hold down the volume down key at the end of task 29 it will not have any operating system. Just remove the battery and hold down the volume down key till you see the bootloader screen. Then flash your ROM and all is ok.
after task29,when your device reboot
press botton "volume down" and will go in bootloader mode
now if you have your device stuck in white screen,remove battery cover
press red botton for softrest and press "Volume down" botton

It won't because you're in the bootloader. Does it say USB at the bottom of the bootloader screen? As long as it says USB when the phone is plugged into your computer, flash a ROM and be happy
Hello!
And what if my hd2 not entering into the boot loader?
Thanx in advance
There is only one way to get into the bootloader.
Hold down volume and keep it down....
After that press the start button and your phone will boot up.
Now you will see the tree colored screen and you're in the bootloader.
Goodluck.

When you are in the bootloader screen, connect the phone to the computer /with the usb cable/ on the same bootloader screen it will change to USB - look at the bottom of the screen:
Open the folder - on your computer - where the ROM you want to flash is:
find the "RomUpdate*.exe" or "Install.exe" /if Android it will most likely say "DAF.exe" - run it as Administrator/ file and run it. Do as it says on the screen.
Do not disconnect the cable, do not touch the device. When it is finnished it will restart the device, disconnect the cable and enjoy your new OS.

use a <4gb or preferably <2gb sd card - class 4 or 2 with LEOIMG.nbh.
HSPL3_pkg after that - make sure .nbh (as above on sd root) is your stock and you CLEAN-reinstall bootloader.
ps:
Then hspl, then radio, then magldr, then windows 7, the hacks, then call M$= LIVE!
Hi guys i have a similar problem. After task 29 i went into the bootloader but can't install any rom whatsoever. I have SPL 3.03 on my devide, mind no not hard spl but SPL. Can anyone please help me solve this issue? I also tried to flash using sd card but it doesn't work. Please help me save my hd2. Thanks in advance.
tmo-hd2 wont go into bootloader after task29
Hi guys, i am facing exact same thing which dannytgt faced (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...count=1)...but with no luck what so ever.....was running a stock rom in my hd2 3.14....wanted to try wp7 and did a task29....after that...hd2 doesnt go into bootloader screen....tried all possible combinations with/without sd,sim, holding vol down, vol up, both with power tapped...power holded etc etc...hd2 always goes into stick together screen and doesnt progress as there is os to load....opened up the mobile and tried with a pin to push the vol down switch directly also....all hardware keys were working gr8 (including vol down and up and power keys) whn win 6.5/android was running.
i know for the fact that this is reversable....if only my hd2 can get to bootloader...i will hv os running in a jiffy....
any ideas ppl? my hd2 is 3 months old ...no warrenty cos i bought it in US and using it in india..

so far i tried
with holding volume down and power key with a single tap
with holding volume down and holding power key
with holding volume down, volume up and power key with a single tap
with holding volume down and reset button
with/without sim
with/without SD
with/without plug in wall charger
with/without plug to pc via usb cable
observations...when i pull out the battery and put it back in and then connect to computer when the phone is still off....the charging indicator LED glows in orange.
when in this mode if i switch the phone on with power/end key....it doent start...i have to pull the usb out, the orange LED still glows...and if i tap the power/end key nothing happenes...i have to pullout the battery to get it to start and eventually get stuck in "stick together"..

Isn't it ironic: Stick together!...
There is a guide on How to get back from WP7 here on the forum.
First i would sugest to reformat the card from WP7 bul...
If i understand correctly, you can't get into bootloader or magldr!?
So you can't do nothing?
You can try this sollution and if it doesn't work, go to the service center to reset it totaly.
There was a guy with the same problem here:

Try, taking out the battery for 10 seconds or so then put it in while holding the volume down key and powering up.
Got stock ROM back in first time but kiss goodbye to the data on your SD card. I had to use a Canon camera to reformat the card to get back the 14GB it was hiding.
This WORKED. Thanks a TON splinters69.
For future uses, this is what I did.
1. Took out the battery for about 30 seconds.
2. Put one of the LEOIMG.NBH on storage card
3. After putting the battery held the volume down button and pressed power button.
4. It went into HSPL mode straight away and started loading the win 6.5 OS.
You saved the day Splinters69. Thanks to Clydeb1 too for that modelIDcheckbypass.

Man, did you say blackstone? You should go into Blackstone forum
To go into bootloader, turn off the phone. Press volume down button and the POWER ON button (not start button) at the same time until the screen appear. It works on both Leo and Black Stone
Goodluck
hi, ive install the new energy ROm but forgot to install the radio 2.xx.50.xx. now i want to do it but CAB via activesync is not working...
any suggestions?
Btw i have windows 7...
Should i install smthg form microsoft?
All you have to do is download the radio you want right click on the zip file and click extract and choose the location you want to extract it to (I suggest your desktop for easy access).While your phone is off hold the volume down button down button and tap the power button but keep the volume down button held down until you see the tri color bootloader screen. Then plug your HD2 into your computer via USB cable and wait until you see the serial in the bottom white bar of tbe bootloader screen to change to USB and then flash the Radio. You can go to the Radio thread stickied in the Windows Mobile Rom develoment forum. Here is a link.
thks will try.....
Not that I would want to, but in the event I wanted to reinstall Windows 6.5 over the NAND Anroid.
To reinstall Windows Mobile 6.5 you have to put your HD2 into bootloader. To do this while the HD2 is off hold the volume down button down and press the power button but continue to bold down the volume down button. When the multicolor bootloader screen appears connect your HD2 to the computer via USB cable and wait until you see USB in the white bar of the bootloader screen. Then just flash the ROM to your HD2. This method does not revert your HSPL to SPL but it will remove MAGLDR and CWM if they are on your HD2.
You can also flash it via SD card but this method does revert your HSPL to SPL if it is a official ROM that is. Go to here to learn how to flash via SD card.
Hope this is helpful.
Hey i have the t mobile htc hd2, and i had it for quite a while. for the past year i had a windows 6.5 energy rom installed and from the last month a had battery issues. the phone whould be locked and die in 4-5 hours. i thought it was the energy rom and i decided to install magldr so i can install android on my htc phone. i have no idea whats the hspl or radio because i haven't flashed my htc in a long time.... i just installed magldr from the energy rom.... once i did that my htc would get stuck on ad recovery go go go and now i am only able to launch windows 7. when i try to nand android it gets stuck at boot. i want to change my phone back to its original state but i cant get to the tri color screen. i tried vol down then pressing power and i tried turning phone off and hold vol down and pressing the reset button, but my phone doesn't turn on when i press the yellow reset button.

1.First,download a stock t-mobile rom
2.Hold down volume down key while pressing the power key.
3.Connect cable to the phone and wait for usb to connect.
4.Run your rom and wait for it to finish, done.
