[Q] Bricked Hero? touch panel-fail

Hello, I have an unrooted Hero from Orange (Spain) that enters in a boot loop. I have tryed everything to restore it but with no success. In the hboot menu it says "touch panel-fail" and even if I flash again the original rom from the hboot, it still gets in a boot loop.
First of all I will explain my case.
I had the Hero rooted, with custom roms etc, but when I bought a Nexus One, I gave my Hero to my brother. In September he told me that the official 2.1 had arrived to the Hero, so he wanted it instead of a custom rom, so I just proceeded to do so. I created a GoldCard, installed the 1.5 RUU of WWE, made the two OTAs and all OK. The last week (I think) he received a new small OTA, he updated successfully. My brother went to sleep with the Hero almost charged, but when he woke up, the Hero was off. Then, when he turned it on, and after a while (15mins or so) the Hero finally boot up, but the touchscreen wasn`t working and using it with the trackball the Hero was always prompting FC of android.process.acore (every 2 seconds more or less).
After watching that, I installed the official 1.5 of Orange hoping that it will fix it, but no way. Now it gets stuck in a loop while booting after the Orange bootscreen.
I tryed again to flash the WWE version, but with my old GoldCard doesn't seem to work (incorrect cid) and not being able to boot it up, I cannot create a new GoldCard or even root it.
I have tryed a lot of fastboot comands but I can do just little things because for the most useful things I need root.
Other thing that might be good to know is that when I plug the power to the Hero nothing happens, the led is not turning on, and I don't know how much battery I still have. Thank goodness that the battery was full before I moved the Hero to this infernal boot loop.
Please I will be so thankful if anyone can help me or just giving me any clue about how can I fix this.
I had the same problem on a refurbished hero I had. It had touchpanel fail in hboot and was in a constant loop.
I managed to get it to boot into android once by installing the ruu while in fastboot mode, however the touchscreen did not work and when I rebooted the phone it went back to the loop.
I sent the phone back for a replacement. If u check my previous threads ull see the thread icreated. In it I said that it had worked as that was when it finally booted but before I realised the sgreen didn't work
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
Thank you for your reply, I will check your posts when I arrive home this evening.
hi.
I had the same problem and solve it by flashing this rom (goldcard needed)

[Q] has someone found the solution to the hard brick of atrix motorola Atrix?

If someone has found the solution for the hard brick in motorola atrix please share this post
Nope. And very unlikely it will unless motorola leaks what is needed.
I voided my warranty.
No.. so many hard brick happened, no solution now.
not to sure if this helps but just about an hour ago i found myself bricked with "0x1000 failed to boot os" this happened will i was trying to enable pudding. the phone was ota updated to gingerbread.. so i started to panic and i decided to go ahead and try to unlock the bootloader anyways.. so i pulled the battery and rebooted the phone then started fastboot mode.. the phone was showing the 0x1000 error still. then i ran the command for the oem unlock and then wiped the phone in fastboot then i rebooted. to my surprise the phone booted to the motorola boot logo screen with the unlocked sign at the top.. but the phone did not start up all the way. so decided to flash tenfars recovery and did so.. booted into recovery and flashed alien build 4 and then rebooted and now i have to phone back up and running! so like i said im not too sure if i did hard brick ..but thought i share what happend! hope that helps!
Yeah that what you had was a soft brick,but what were talking about is a hard brick,where nothing happens when you push the power button,only if you put the battery in it shows the error message.
i apoligize. just wondering why the thread in the dev section is labeled hard brick 0x1000?

Please help! Bricked my device!

I apologize in advance if this is the wrong section, but I am a brand new member and can't post in the developers' section if I was supposed to. Also, I need help ASAP
So I rooted my AT&T LG Optimus G with no problem. Then went to unlock the bootloader. I decided to pay the dollar to get the app that does it for you. So I ran it and it said I successfully unlocked my device. Well I went to reboot into fastboot mode and the LG logo flashed on my screen and just went to black. It won't do anything more than that. I can't get into recover, fastboot, or any other screen. That's it. Am I SOL? Did I really mess my device up?
Please help! Thanks in advance!
EDIT: I have no idea what I did but somehow managed to boot into fastboot mode and went to CWM and installed The Base just fine. I have no idea what happened but I am soooooo happy right now.
EDIT 2: Maybe I spoke too soon. I started running "The Base" and went it prompted me saying it's gonna restart my device, it did and the screen is black again (The same black that appeared after my LG logo from before)
EDIT 3: So I decided to run it again and this time, I picked the other kernel. It booted up fine this time. All is well.
If you run into anymore problems, there is a program available in this irc channel. It is used to restore a bricked phone.

[Q] Amaze Problem

Hello all,
I've searched the forums for quite awhile now and couldn't find anything to help solve my problem ,so I'm biting the bullet and creating a thread.
Earlier on this evening my phone randomly rebooted and I ended up stuck on the splash screen for 15+ minutes. I tried a battery pull but again got
stuck on the splash screen after turning the phone on. I'm able to get into Hboot and Fastboot but can't get into recovery , factory reset , clear storage , etc. Every time I try one of those options , the phone just freezes up. I'm not able to relock the bootloader and flash an RUU because I can't get into the phone to turn on my USB debugging , so my laptop won't even recognize my phone when it's plugged in. As of now , I'm at a bit of a standstill. I'm on Telus , S-ON, Rooted , running Speedrom 9. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Soft bricked HTC One, HELP PLEASE

Hi All,
I was trying to convert my ATT HTC One (Android 4.3; Hboot 1.55) to International version using the thread: [HOW TO] Convert AT&T/Rogers/T-Mobile HTC One to EU International One. (I had converted my old HTC One which I lost successfully using this thread in past.)
But when I got my new HTC One, I immediately OTA updated it to 4.3 and thus my HBoot also updated to 1.55. (I am a noob and didnt know it updated OTA will update to Hboot to 1.55 which is not compatible with revone to gain S-off. But anyways...)
So yesterday, I gained S-off using rumrunner. Had to root and install custom recovery to do that. Everything was fine until I gained S-off.
As I was S-off now, I decided to go ahead and start converting my Att HTC One to international version. So I started at Step # 4a of above mentioned thread.(I started at 4a bz steps before that are used to gain s-off using revone).
After I completed step 4a, and as menrioned in the thread, HTC One got stuck at 3/4 completed green status bar. And after that when I restarted my phone nothing is showing up. Screen is black and my computer gives me message that device connected could not be recognized. I never got the grey htc screen.
I cannot reboot into adb or recovery. if i hold the power button(10+ secs) phone vibrates. If I turn press the power button again the red led will turn on but screen is still black.
Please tell me i am not screwed and there is a way to fix this.
I really appreciate any kind of help.
You guys rock
P.S: I have searched the forum if someone has had same problem but couldnt find any, if you know any thread that already has solution to this please direct me to it.

If your on a windows 8.1 PC what happen is the RUU downgraded your hboot and windows no longer can see the phone. Most likely your phone is not dead you just need a windows 7 PC to redo all the steps of running the RUU
