I think I bricked my wifi flyer - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

I was unlocking the bootloader and at the last step my little son unplugged it.
So now when I power it on i see HTC logo for couple of second and then black screen.
Holding power +vol down takes my to hboot, but I am a total noob how to fix it.
BTW it sais unlocked and s -on
It is a best buy wifi only version
ADB doesnt recognize my flyer actually my computer doesn't recognize it at all
Any help please????
A little more info from holding power+vol down:

Two threads in different sections?
You are not bricked. What were you looking to accomplish
Flyer

I was unlocking a friend's bootloader the other day via HTCDev for another phone. I unplugged during the process as well however this didn't affect it. Your bootloader is telling you that you're also unlocked. How long have you waited on the black screen after the HTC logo?
If you hold power and volume down to enter the bootloader then go into fastboot mode, can you connect the Flyer to your PC and enter the following command into a terminal;
Code:
fastboot devices
A serial number will come up if your Flyer is being recognised. If this is the case it would be possible for you to flash a custom recovery enabling you to then flash a custom rom.

Sorry actually I get this:
HT15SJN00622 fastboot

I would think, as mentioned, your best route is to flash a recovery then a rom. Has to be a rom with a stock kernel so I suggest either virtuous or iodriod. Assuming your on hc which I believe is the case. Download a rom to your pc then download this and place it in the same directory as your Fastboot commands
https://m.box.com/view_shared/9bb9ba944ea6f301afe8
Then with flyer in Fastboot and connected
Fastboot flash recovery "name of file here"
Then go back to hboot and select recovery should now have it. Under options in recovery mount to pc and place rom you downloaded on your external sd. Then go back and select install zip from sd find the rom and flash it

I wanted to go back to gingerbread
but now i regret it
question:
by putting those two files to the same directory can I put them in my folder adb with adb.exe, fastboot.exe ?
I have a problem with this, I am not sure ..

So you have a best buy flyer and wanted to roll back to gb. Your hboot says unlocked and you have not yet flashed a recovery. First thing I want to do is get you booted then if you still have the stomach you can go back to gingerbread.
If you have not already, download the recovery.img I linked. Place it in the same folder as the Fastboot.exe. Put your flyer in Fastboot mode.
Open a command prompt on your pc. Change to the directory that has your adb/Fastboot commands. Type
Fastboot flash recovery "name of downloaded recovery file.img"
No quotations just file name then hit enter
Should flash recovery. Download a hc rom to your pc, I suggest iodriod which is a smaller file. Then place it on ext sd and flash like you would any rom.

Flyer WIFI US is dead, I think

Hi eveybody,
I upgrade to HC already and unlock boot loader with HTC web. Press Vol down + power, it informs "Bootloader unlocked" but can't start to normal Android state. I try to restore but it's not response (can't enter to bootloader mode by any ship ROM).
I try to relock bootloader but still not success.
SO now my flyer is used as a brick.
Can anybody help.

Thank you very much for your reply. Can you write more details, I am a newbie.
Wrong section this should be in q&a
You need to have fast boot installed on your pc
You need cmw zip for flyer hc
You need to place this zip in same directory as Fastboot commands
You need to get into Fastboot mode on your flyer and connect to pc
You need to open a cmd terminal on your pc and change to the directory that contains Fastboot and recovery
Then enter command
Fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery zip"
Then you should be able to get into recovery to flash a hc rom
All of these files can be found in links posted in the op of threads in flyer development. Look for an old thread by Paul obrien (or something like that) about updating to hc leaks. Everything you need should be there

[q] help!!!!!! Bricked e3d recovery jacked up stuck in bootloader!!!

For people who came for an answer, here it is.
download android sdk
download fastboot drivers
get clockworkmod img and rename to imgfile.img
put img in adb tools
put adb, adbwinapi, fastboot, and the img file in c:/Android
plug your phone to the computer
enter the bootloader
click on recovery or fastboot doesnt matter since both will now take you to fastboot
goto computer
type in run in start menu
type cmd in run and hit enter
type cd c:\Android
type fastboot boot imgfile.img
you are now in recovery
go to mounts and storage and mount your device as a disk drive
download any rom to your computer doesnt really matter and put in on your sdcard. If you already have a rom on there then just use that.
unmount your phone
go to wipe data/factory reset and when it finishes flash the rom
once rom is done flashing reboot into android again.
your phone is partially fixed
now go to the market (if you flashed cm then flash the gapps.zip) and download "rom manager"
Then click on download clockworkmod 5.0.0.2 or something like that (first option)
Now go to rom manager and restore your backup that u made (If there was 1 before)
now it will be fixed and your bootloader will take u to recovery instead of fastboot when you click recovery xD
thanks xda
I flashed a rom and the rom must have been corrupted or something and now my phone is stuck rebooting and when I try to go to recovery or any option it takes me to fastboot so now my phone is basically bricked
Your phone is not bricked since your still able to turn it on.
Can you enter fasboot USB?

well it doesnt really turn on its a boot loop but whatever and fastboot is weird it doesnt want to work.
If your bootloader is unlocked make sure you flash the boot.img through fastboot and make sure you wipe

Sent from my ADR6425LVW using XDA
Are you S-Off or S-On? If S-Off, download a PG86IMG.zip of a recovery, and use your bootloader to flash recovery. From that point, just restore a backup or reflash a ROM. If you're not S-Off, I'd say you should try running an RUU, since you can't get fastboot to work. But I think you need to relock your device to run an RUU (if you're S on/ HTC Unlocked), so you'd still need fastboot. Do you have a different USB cable to try? I've seen them fail before even though they still work to charge.

Sounds like the drivers arn't installed right.. Like you said if he is S-ON and relocked he can run a RUU exe if he is CDMA...
If you are s off then you just need to reload another recovery. And then access a backup of a rom! Or just flash a new one. I had a issue just like this yesterday where my recovery was broken for some reason and had to go from twrp. 2.1 back to 1.1.1 and load another rom.

Pull your battery.. reinsert and hold volume down and the power button. Make sure phone is plugged in or replug in phone if you took it off to reboot. Should be in Hboot now, press power to select fastboot if it is white lettering over blue background. If it is red background your already in fastboot and if connected should say fastbootusb.
1. open a copy of the rom your on either with 7 zip or since your not adding anything to it unzip it .
2. find the folder that says kernel, now you will either see a PH98IMG.zip or you will see a file that his white with a silver circle called boot. That is the raw boot.img. If it is the ph zip simply unzip it and you will see the boot.img.
3. Now , remove the boot.img and place it in the same folder your fastboot is located , generally the place you unlocked with.
4. Then, bring up a command prompt the same way you did to unlock. change directory if needed by cd c:\thenthenameofthefoldrecontainingfastboot.
5. Simply type fastboot boot boot.img
6. you will see sending " size of img".. receiving "size of img ", then writing .. and it will end and tell you how many seconds it took.
Now, simply use the reboot selection from bootloader or with the command prompt type abd reboot and your phone should reboot and you will be back on your rom.
The reason you keep booting to the jBear screen is because the jBear process replaced your KERNEL. You need to find the kernel img file for YOUR operating system or ROM. If you are on GB, find a GB kernel. If on the ICS Leak, you need to find the ICS Leak kernel. If on a ROM, get that ROM's kernel file.
Then the commands on the PC are:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
Another option is to use Hansoon's Rezound All-in-one-kit to flash the stock kernel for you.

htc amaze boot loop since fail flash hboot

it's my first time I flashed my htc
I made a hboot flash to my htc amaze I got in to recovery mode and I received a red triangle I pulled the battery cause I couldn't cancel it.
and now it boot loops I can't get in the fastboot with vol down+power
but the USB charge it and I see 2 removeale device but I can't open this device
am I bricked my htc?
Thanks
I think as long as your computer can recognize your phone, it can be saved. Maybe you can try the unbricking project?
Try this command with adb
fastboot reboot-bootloader
And see if it boots into bootloader. If not then you can try to flash a recovery.img using fastboot commands. But it might not write the image if it doesn't have a proper hboot.
-------------------------------------------------
We are guinea pigs for smart phone technology.

The red triangle is the symbol you get when you don't have a recovery I believe.
Try flashing a recovery using a toolkit

It might be helpful if you provided some more information.
Examples are:
What hboot did you flash?
How did you flash it? What command was used?
What version was your phone running? Gingerbread or ICS?
Is your phone S-OFF'd? (Your phone is probably S-OFF'd already, or else you wouldn't be able to flash the hboot)
Stuff like that can make a world of difference.

Looks like you may be S-off. Try downloading a stock GB Ruu, renaming to ph98img and put it on the root of your sd card. Reboot and hboot should install it. It will take a while and a reboot once before finishing.

You should be able to do a fastboot push.
What would work better would be to fastboot flash Amon-Ra, then you can mount the SD as mass storage.

I'm not big on ADB or Fastboot so I can't tell you how using those tools. However, when I needed to recover after several failed s-off attempts, I used this all in one tool and just selected Flash AmonRa recovery.
Then I would boot into recovery, AmonRa has an option to toggle USB to SD card, so then you could copy whatever from your computer to the SD card.

Thank you everyone that helped
You can also do the PH98IMG.zip thing this way:
1) Put PH98IMG.zip in fastboot folder
2) fastboot oem rebootRUU
3) fastboot flash zip PH98IMG.zip
4) Wait a long time, when the prompt returns control to you it is done
5) fastboot reboot
6) Let it fire up and all that jazz
7) Then do "fastboot writesecureflag 3" and you will be 100% stock

I believe you're correct. Pretty sure that's in the Dev board about getting S-On, and that's the command to run.

He is trying to return it so I assume that is the goal.

Okay I downloaded a stock signed RUU renamed it and put it on the root of my sdcard, when I rebooted the phone the phone recognized and I applied the update. It booted up perfectly and the phone is back on stock GB, I dont see where to writesecureflag though, did I have to do that before I let the phone boot all the way into the OS for the first time? Under the fastboot menu I see no option to writesecureflag, do I need to reflash the stock RUU and start again?

I tried writing S-On but I keep getting the error device offline. I used
There are 4 ways to do it:
Unplug the usb and plug it back again.
Go to the Settings -> Applications -> Development of your device and uncheck the USB debugging mode and then check it again back!
Restart the adb on your PC. adb kill-server and then adb start-server
Restart your device and try again.

You will need to be in fastboot. Pull the battery, then reboot holding volume down.
*Note: make sure there is no PH98IMG.zip on your SD card
Once in hboot, select fastboot. Then connect to your PC.
In your command prompt/adb window, type 'fastboot devices' to make sure your PC reads the phone.
Then type 'fastboot oem writesecureflag 3' and you'll be S-On.

Phone is all back to stock and shipped back for repairs thank you all very much for your help
