Hi,
I decided to reinstall the software of my x10i on SEUS (1.6 R2BA024 i think).
It installed, said that the 1st boot should be longer, but the phones run into a reboot loop. I mean, it starts the phone, connects to the sim card, but then restarts itself, and again, and again. Tried to reinstall the software, nothing.
Ideas?
Regards
i am facing the same issue...a workaround is to remove the battery, sim and sd card for 5 minutes and then put them all back and start
although the phone starts sometimes when i connect to my computer or try to restore the backup it gets into the loop again

Hi everyone,
Yesterday I made a Radio update to version 63.18.55.06_6.35.07.08. I made it putting the update.zip (radio rom) file in the SD Card.
All worked fine until the htc hero restarted (after appears the box with the orange arrow). Thereafter the Hero only shows the Hero logo when I turn on.
I tried to init the fastboot pressing home+power and home+back+power buttons (without SD Card and without SIM card) but always the result is the same, the logo appears and nothing happens.
The computer doesn't detects the Hero's USB connection and I can't run adb commands because it raises the "device not found" error.
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance!
Did you let the screen with the box run its course?
Did the recovery console come back up saying formatting cache?
Have you tryed holding just back+power? ive never heard of using back+home+power
And also, i think your supposed to enter recovery with the sd in.
If that works then in that state is should be found by adb.
But yes, as the poster before me said, it should show the "unpacking" image, and then it should reboot. It should then go straight back into the recovery and the recovery will format the cache. If you tryed to turn it off at any point then, then something is badly mucked up. But it isnt bricked, and probably can be saved. Its only bricked when no logos at all come up on boot. If you managed to get it reconised by adb, you could probs format the cache manualy, though i dont know the command
All the previous steps after the breack are as you say, but after the "unpacking" image, the htc hero restarted and showed the hero logo instead the correct menu.
The problem with the adb is that the computer doesn't recognize the htc hero across usb. When I write the adb command ("adb devices") doesn't displays any device, and I can't run any adb shell for the same reason. How can I run any adb command if the device isn't recognized by the computer?
Have you tryed just taking the battery out, waiting 30 seconds, putting it back in, then booting the phone holding back+power?
And adb is very strange i find... Sometimes it reconises a phone, sometimes it doesnt, for no apparent reason. Have you tryed leaving it on the hero logo for a while then running adb commands?
If he has flashed, wouldnt the USB Debugging setting be reset also, wouldnt this be why he cannot access via adb.
Hi.
I habe exactly the same problem. I have updated radion.
Now ther come only the T-Mobile Logo and that's all.
I can not enter neither Recovery Mode nor fasbtoot does do something.
Any suggestions?
Lado
this problem shud be fixed asap because i think its a threat for all hero modders and owners as our phones get killed at anytime with this process. so guys lets try to find a solution for this problem. cheers
Updated Radio to 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 and it killed my hero.
first the box with the orange arrow came up and then the whole phone died... now it wont even turn on the screen.
please fix?????????????????
I had the box with the orange arrow yesterday after flashing radio.
The phone isn't dead, I think it's just working.
I kinda paniced also when it happend but I got into recovery eventually.
When you flash a radio it does not actually install that image until your first boot (when you see that phone out the box image).
At this point DO NOT DO ANYTHING WITH THE PHONE just wait and it will install the image and reboot for you. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 10 MINUTES.
If you turn it off or otherwise interrupt this process it can really mess up your phone. however the general rule is so long as you can see the HTC logo when you turn on i.e. it still turns on you can in theory always recover, its just a matter of finding the way that works.
I just flashed the Energy.RAPHAEL.23554.Sense2.1.Mar.30 rom on to my sprint touch pro and everything went fine no problems, the ruu confirmed that the flash was successful and my phone rebooted and now all it will do is continuously reboot itself. I tried every method I know of to try and hard reset it to no avail. It restarts itself, goes to the TOUCHpro logo splash booting screen for maybe 20 to 30 seconds and never goes any further then it restarts again. if anyone out there thinks they can help me PLEASE do so... I'm completely clueless what to do from here. thanks.
update
I've been able to go into bootloader mode now and break the reboot cycle but now my pc is failing to recognize the phone. I have vista and I reinstalled mobile device center and it won't recognize it when I plug it in. on the phone in bootloader mode it will change from serial to usb on the display when I have it connected so I don't know where to go from here. any ideas?
thats how bootloader works..once it says USB just run the RUU. itll work fine. may have been a corrupted download, so id re-download it or just grab a different rom to flash.
Hello, dear xda users. I am kinda new in Android world- i bought HTC phone month ago and i tried to get used for it. My phone is polish version of T-Mobile G2 and its called ERA G2. I rooted it, installed Amon-Ra and tried a lot of custom ROMs. After month of using different kind of Android and HTC ROMs i stayed with RCMix 2.3, because of his speed and 2.1 Sense on it. And now my problem begins:
Today my menu button stoped working in some applications so i decided to reboot device. Everything went fine with getting off, but when phone vibrated and Era initializing screen appeared, nothing happened after that.
-I tried with removing SIM, SD and all other options but still it is frozen. After couple minutes its vibrating again and restarts.
-When i plug charger for turned off phone, charging led is on but at the same time i am turning on phone, led disappears (phone is still plugged to charger).
-I cannot go to recovery by holding Home+Power... nothing happens.
-When i am holding VOL Down and Power this unknown for me HTC/Android window appears but automatically starts some kind of loading, and when its in Simlock and opening FAT32 something it restarts and Era initialization screen is on again.
-Unfortunately i dont have any warranty for this phone and i am from Poland so professional technical support is the worst way of helping for me right now.
I really enjoyed HTC Hero and i want to enjoy it more, so please if you know any way or kind of solution, please reply ; ) [sorry for my english]
Do You have adb set up?
By nothing happends You mean it wont turn on, or it wont run recovery?
Sent from my Hero using XDA App
remove battery and put it back again. This will turn off the phone. Then try Power it up. Do you get into bootloop again?
What about recovery? Replace battery and power up into recovery. 2 things might happen. You can get into your recovery normally and reflash the rom. Or you might get a screen with a phone and a big red exclamation mark. In this case you've lost your recovery and need ruu install.
brat.haneq---> i ment that i cant go to recovery- i have initialization screen and nothing happens.
So, first of all i restarted my phone a lot of times in different combinations (with SIM, without SD etc.). I cannot get to recovery when i am pressing power+home buttons and nothing happens, no exclamation mark like arvan said. I just see blue initialization screen from Era (it says Era G2 Touch)as always. Normally after some seconds it dissapears and normal bootscreen from ROM shows up, but not this time. Any thoughts?
Oh, and what is adb set up? Cheers ; )
So I guess You've really lost the recovery.... And as I said, RUU install will help...
Okay, but how i can install RUU? I tried from PC but Windows doesnt see my device... Any other option?
have you got the drivers? they come with htc sence. what does your pc see instead of hero? there might be some unknown device in the device manager if it's a driver problem.
Install RUU form SDcard (extract ROM.zip from RUU, rename it to HEROIMG.zip and put it to root of SDcard) using HBOOT mode.

:crying: My Spice Mi-350n, i rooted my phoen and tried to uninstall some pre-installed application from it, but when i restarted it it stucks on the start up animation and repeats the same animation and stucks again.
i tried its recovery mode for factory reset but it is not working at all, and now it is now recognizing the sd card also.
it can only start in recovery mode nothing else without recognizing the sd card. but when i connected it to my pc, pc(windows) detects it as a device, but cant open it.
is there any way so that its OS may again be installed in this from PC

If you have stock ROM of your phone, you can unbrick your phone using this blog:

Here's the sequence of events. I am not rooted, bootloader locked, never flashed anything to the device. Using phone as company intended.
1. Yesterday night I turn off the device only to notice that it is bootlooping. I can't force shut down. Whatever, I do, nothing would shut down the device completely. Pressing power button for over 15 seconds or anything.
2. If I try to go to recovery, it automatically chooses reboot and goes back to bootloop. Only fastboot works.
3. I install Mi flash tool and download ROM and try to install only to get device is locked error because bootloader is locked. This happens at the "Erase Boot" stage.
4. I try this couple of times and just before giving up, I try to go to recovery again. This time however, recovery opens and it doesn't choose anything automatically.
5. I click the "Repair" option and it just boots regularly and goes in as if nothing happened. No delayed boots, no installs or anything. Just regular boot and goes in. Data is intact. I am now using the phone for a while and have not turned off again.
What should I do next? Flash current version of ROM (already have latest) through the Updater app? Anything else?
Unlock bootloader first
If u get this problem again, you can flash easily with mi flash tool (bootloader should be unlocked)
Somewhat similar thing happened when my sim reader was broken, was just restarting and even after removing (if it managed to boot) sim card it said no service thinking there is a card and would crash from what I assume is a nullptr, this phone sucks
