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.
USB LOGO
I followed all the steps mentioned, when it came to the command box, i did the command and pressed enter... but nothing happenned
The USB logo on the touchpad remained there. once i exited the command box, the USB logo turned into a frozed hp logo that just sat there for two hours till i rebooted ... ????
What am i doing wrong ?
Anyone else with a GSII suddenly feel like they time traveled back to the Windows Mobile days?
I have a number of problems with my phone at the moment,
I havent changed anything software wise and yet still everything has gone horribly.
1. It wont read on my computer- When I plug it into my computer via a USB cable, it says that the USB plugged in has malfunctioned and can not be read. Although it does charge...
2. Boot loop- I'm currently running Cyanogenmod 10 and when I attempt to turn on the phone the LG logo comes up, then the cyanogenmod logo appears and it starts turning as usual. Now normally, it turns a few times and after about 1-2 minutes, it stops and the phone turns on... But now it goes on for about 10 minutes, and then just goes black and I have to remove the battery in order to turn it back on again.
3. Recovery Mode- I cant boot up into recovery mode because whenever I try it says "S/W Upgrade: Please wait til done" And I left it be to upgrade for a good 4 hours, and when I looked back at it, the screen was black so I assumed it had upgraded and switched off. Yet still the boot up loop issue persisted so I tried to boot up in recovery mode again and yet still it said "S/W Upgrade: Please wait til done".
I dont know what to do!
Please help
The pictures are from the internet btw, they are not of or from my device.
Hello,
I have a tablet that looks similar to Q88 A13. CPU is wm8801, OS - Android 4.1. So I had stopped using it and left it sit for like 1 year. Now I charged it and tried to turn on, but it wouldn't get past first logo(the one that appears first, not the os loading one) and would attempt to go into recovery itself, but then the android with exclamation mark would appear for a while and then device would reboot and so on and so on...
Then I triggered a hard reset with a button combo, but it didn't really help. Tablet stopped trying to go into recovery and simply kept getting stuck at logo.
I can't access recovery, and neither ADB nor fastboot is working. PC with win 7 reports it as unrecognized device and other PC with win xp doesn't even see that anything is connected to it.
I've tried unsoldering the battery, completely discharging tablet without it, soldered it back on, but didn't help.
Help?

Try Livesuit 1.11.
I've used it to load several ROM's
I'm currently running FaaastJB v2.5 found at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2447819
i tried to upgrade my m9s pro to kodi 17 via apk file...when i tried to install the apk, the installation failed and my box froze...i waited for like 10-15 mins to see if it comes back to normal...but it remain froze...
I unplugged the power and plugged back in to restart it...and then the box was stuck at red light...BUT BUT BUT...after exactly 15 mins or so, the blue light used to turn on with m9s pro logo...and it remained stuck there...
I tried restarting it for few times but always at the start, it was stuck on red light...then after 15 mins blue light turned on n thn stuck on m9s logo...
I searched on the internet and read somewhere to hold the reset button while plugging in the power...i did that and i went into a screen with green android man and at the bottom there were commands like > formatting data, e: can't mount etc etc...
After those commands the box restarted and ever since, the box stays on red light and it does not shows the blue light even after 15 or 30 mins ...or even an hour....
i wished i would have tried flashing when it was on blue light....but now as it is stuck on red light...need to do something...
I am using the correct firmware - that i am sure...because the firmware mentioned on this firmware for this box, and the firmware my supplier sent is the same.
While flashing i get below errors, Do you have any idea regarding the below error,
[0x10105002]Romcode/Initialize DDR/Read initialize status/USB Control setup error
This error comes at 2% and when i only connect the box with laptop using usb...
And the below error comes when i connect both usb n power cord to box and then connect it to laptop,
uboot/disk intialize/send command/error result
This error comes at 7% when formatting is about to start...
I have tried on windows 7 & 10 laptop + pc....Used almost every version of usb burning tool...the usb cable i am using is 1 metre approx...
Any help will be appreciated....
