if you don't have a recovery, the thing you can try is:
get HTC Sync
get an official RUU.exe (on htc website)
and run the exe
and definately root your phone afterwards
grtz

phew, solved it,, pressed VOL DOWN as i powered up and then did a hard boot reset,, all working now,, thanks all.
MODS pls close..

[Solved] Touch Pro don't boot.. Please help

Hello.
I just flashed to DCS Touch Pro v14 ROM.. Everything was ok, but when I restored the backup from SPB Backup, device made soft reset and then started my problem.
When I turn it on, it goes to startup HTC animation and then freeze on it.
Is there any way to hard reset or anything that would help me??
Please :-(

Press volume buttons (inferiors) and soft reset at the same time.
When the screen go to about bootloaders still soft reset and "prays".
Bye
Many ppl trying to help
i love this forum...
I just solve it... Thank you for your advices..
Standard hard reset (Vol down + Center button + REset) didn't work - device must be on.
I tried this - Vol down. + Center button and turn on the device, that worked.
Once again thak you.

i just want to thank everyone who participated and answered this.
i almost ****ted a brick a few min's ago..
my device just stopped working it was real weird.. All was fine then i get a error msg saying that "Gyrator has encounterd an error" and BAM black screen. and no matter how many soft resets and batt pulls nothing worked.
so i immediatly signed on here..searched for about 30 seconds and with the 3 key press..all was good..device booted properly, configured itself, and im back on track.
Thanks,
Jstar
I tried the restore and it will not work for me. I can get to the boot loader screen, but it only shows serial and won't let me do anything else.

You need to get out of the GSM rom forum and go to the raphael CDMA forum. Anything you try to flash from here will not work on your device and my brick it.

Until you understand the difference between the two standards you shouldn't be flashing anything, as it will not be safe.

Bricked Hero

After ROM upload my HTC Hero show only some logo like device out of box. Nothing else is going. Button combinations for bootloader access is not working. Any ideas?
I managed to skilfully brick mine too, is a there a way to get it to boot up via key combination or using USB from a computer?
We are three now.
I know (presumably) my error: I flashed an SPL zip package that could be of the wrong type (Dream).
The boot shows the phone logo (mine says G2 T-Mobile).
The home keydown at boot doesn't work.
Is there a possibility to unbrick it?
Hope someone tells you how to unbrick it as I was about to do the update the ROM, not sure I want to do it now.
Right this is very weird as i had the same picture on my phone and thought it was bricked too..
BUT i just did a soft reset call menu end together. Then i did a hard reset as i wasnt sure if the soft one had done anything. Battery out then in and start up phone whilst holding down house and back key and then it started to boot up. So not sure if this helps anyone i doubt it as its very random but i thought id share just in case!!!
I had just flashed my radio when mine did this..
friend of mine had tha problem too, he had to send his device to htc.. 50 bucks ;-)
hmmm ... i am one of u guys now ...
no matter what key-combo i press, it just show a BOX and an arrow and a phone ... 3 sec later, phone turns off, no matter hwat key u press, it is not doing anything until u unplug the batery ... then when u turn it on, it repeat the same thing again
check if you can access fastboot via back+power when the phone is off. if so install recovery image and then install correct rom. if not i guess you're screwed, not sure though.

HD2 bricked

Hi, I was trying to flash my ROM with SSPL and a cooked ROM and now my HD2 is bricked. When I turn it on, the white HTC screen comes up and nothing more happens (except the back gets warm). I'm assuming that the little "void" thing below the battery area means that any warranty is void or something.
Can anyone help? Nothing I can do to it will make anything happen. Thanks all!
SSPL? Aren't you supposed to use the HSPL?

As far as I know the "void" thing below the battery is correctly in place. If it was missing - then your warranty would be void.
I would put your phone into bootloader and flash a stock rom.
If you have a european phone check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
If you have USA phone check here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614
Your phone is not bricked, you should be able to reflash back to a stock rom. To flash a custom rom you should use Hard-SPL, if you do this make sure you pay close attention to the directions, because a long time ago I bricked my wizard because I didn't pay attention to details

Hi, thanks all for the responses, I've gotten it working! I didn't know about getting the phone into bootloader mode FIRST, then doing the installations. BIG help, thanks to the collective wisdom!!

I bricked my phone after using "Task 29"... PLEASE HELP!
I just used "Task 29", my phone is stuck on the home screen and will not do anything else. I keep holding down the volume buttons and inserting a USB cord to see if it will sync to my computer so I can upload another ROM, but as soon as the multi colored screen comes up, it quickly changes to a white screen telling me to either press the vol button up for a reset or another key to escape it. If I press up it goes right back to the boot up screen and does the same if I press any other button. Is there anyone who could help me.... PLEASEEEE!!!!

No need to sync to Activesync. Just put phone back into bootloader (ie volume down + power on), connect usb and then run the ruu.
Enter in bootloder by holding (with the phone close) the volume down volume key then press power button ... then flash the original wimo rom
thank you for the help but my issue is that when i do that it just stays on the multi colour screen and, if i just turn my phone on the bootloader runs nand straight away. how can i get into the botloader, its weird, thansk again guys
Dude u need to have a stock rom.. AND THEN FLASH IT IN BOOTLOADER...

How can I fix it?
I have already searched for similar problems but I couldnt understand the detailed explanations.

it was good to try something new but it didnt work.still just the backlight, nothing on the screen.
Then probably it's something wrong with the data itself, you probably installed some bad app that bootlooped your phone, your only option is to give some logcat to us or to reinstall the rom and start all over again, maby its time for an update, flash elelinux 2.3.7

Oops sorry but this post was ment to the guy that has a bootloop on elelinux 2.2, if you cant get into HBoot then either you hard bricked your phone or there is something wrong with your screen...
what can be the possible solution for hard bricked phone then : )
I dont think it's a hard brick since you would atleast get to HERO sign (i think) but if it is a hard brick then your only option is JTag..

no no i cant get anything.only black screen.i cant see anything and i cant access to recovery mods or hboot screen.
How do you know you are not getting into HBoot if your screen is lets say malfunctioning ? I think there is a better possibility for a screen failture then a hard brick, it's not easy to hard brick a phone, and it's inpossible if you were just using your phone on CM7, only way to brick it is a failed HBoot/Radio update... I'd get a new screen there, or it could be the motherboard that failed.
