I've not tried it, but can't you simply unregister your google account under accounts and sync? Just remove the account? You should be able to uninstall any apps required.
However, there may be an ethical problem for the sale in that the device SHOULD be able to reset...
I am having the same problem. White HTC screen and I can't reset my EVO view.
I tried running ruu and go error 140 and 155. I need some help people. Thanks.

Are you guys on stock GB? If not, can you get back to stock?

I need to know before I go to Sprint tomorrow... Thanks
(Oh, and I have a Hero)
Hard Resetting on a Official ROM, don't know if it would work.
But you could try to install some apps that needs root to work, to test if you either have it or not.
If you want to be on the safe side, download a RUU updater that installs your phone all over again.
Then it becomes like the day you bought it.
I don't think it will. If you flash an official RUU from your carrier that will get rid of it. (look on the Sprint site)
I tried that.. with this one..
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=103776
but it would not work.. had the same problem other people had (through the comments).. but no fix was ever suggested, so I just hard reset it..
PROBLEM: "hey got a questions for anyone that could help me out. i cant get the RUU to see my Hero...? it just gives this error: "ERROR[170]: USB CONNECTION ERROR" but its conneted. and ive tried it both just plugging it in and by mounting it. but both dont work. any help would be greatly appreciated."
Does anyone know a different link to one or how to get this one to work?
http://support.sprint.com/support/a...n_your_HTC_Hero/case-gb746811-20091009-155624
Will this one work, then?
The 170 error is when the RUU updater can't get a connection to the Phone.
Have you installed HTC Sync? Or some other drivers for the Hero?
I had the same problem with the Sprint RUU download... kept telling me it wasn't connected.
Then I was messing with it and I manually pressed sync on the phone and then tried to install the RUU and it worked perfect.
So, I guess it was just that I needed to manually press sync.
Anyway, I did it.. it's on my phone... so does that mean the root is off?
If the RUU installation went fine, and finished.
Then you don't got root on your hero anymore.
lol ok.. just making sure!
Thanks for the help
No problem.
Hey everyone,
This is my first post here..and I need your help!! I have my friends HTC Hero (GSM), unlocked, non-rooted, and stuck on the "Hero" boot screen..I've tried everything from soft and hard reset, to getting into recovery mode, but nothing works..when I hold the power+home button, I get an image of a warning triangle with a phone infront of it.. I tried doing a factory reset by holding back+home and power, it took me to the fastboot screen, but that was useless.... PLEASE HELP.
I know that my friend got here by doing an OTA software update via wifi, and his internet connection disconnected in the middle of the update...the phone froze then he restarted and boom..the rest is history...
I'm using Mac OS X Snow Leopard..just FYI..
Thanks...waiting for your replies!!!

What network is it on? You'll need to find the HTC RUU for that particular network to return it back to stock, run that with your phone hooked up and in fastboot I think.
And you'll need openRUU aswel, use the search.

ddotpatel, thanks for the reply!!
Like I said, it's a factory unlocked GSM HTC Hero..no specific network ...
I tried openruu..but it wont recognize the device in fastboot...so I took it to the office today, on a windows 7 pc..the usb drivers installed..the phone is recognized in fastboot but not in ADB...i have no clue why..
Tried flashing RUU WWE i found here in xda, but didnt work..its an issue with ADB i guess..
any more insights?
Sorry pal, I must have missed that bit,... OK, so the WWE RUU should be the right one....
I think installing the latets HTC sync should do it (on your work machine).
If that fails,.... ....
... in fact, you may aswel just start from here to be sure I reckon,....

Hy guys
I have an HTC T mobile G2 and a few days back it started to froze when i used certain aplications. I had to remove the battery and it all came back to normal till one time when it got stuck on the HTC logo and wont go any further then that. I have tried to run PC10IMG from Hboot on it but its says that Main Version Is older! I have also tried to delete the hboot.n00 file from PC10IMG boot and reziped it but it didnt worked. I have tried to go into recovery and did a full date wipe on it but with no result. In other words I have tried all the options to recover it using my sd card and it didnt work.
I have Vision PVT S-ON
HBOOT-0.82.008
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.13.04.19_M

I have also tried to use android sdk to downgrade but no mather what I do I cant get the androidsdk to find my phone. I installed the drivers using HTC sync and PDAnet and all other methods I could find online but with no luck. I ve also used vista and windows 7 but since there no way i can access and enable usb debugging thats not an option for me.
Please if you have any ideas on how to get it to work I would appreciate it.
You've posted on the wrong forum section this is for HTC HERO GSM also known as G2 Touch ... is a different phone from HTC T mobile G2. Maybe someone from your phone's forum can help you.
Try a Hard reset if it works, by typing *2767*3855#
If that doesn't work:
Turn off the phone, press and hold the Home, Power, and Back buttons. After sometime the reset process should start. When the reset process is finished press MENU
Caution: Both will wipe everything

Perhaps it is the network bootloop issue, had that issue with the first OTA, try diagnosing that:

mpmorph, let us know if your problem was same as the network boot looping issue, so we can assist others that get it with this OTA.:good:
....Sadly that is not the case. I tried to follow the instructions on that link but never managed to enter the code. The phone never got that far. The device just displays the white screen with the HTC green logo and then it dims the light a bit, and......it shutdowns, just to restart again. Removed everything, SIM card, microSD card, and nothing.
Received a replacement from verizon today, but before i send the other one back if anybody has any ideas to try.....now is the time....please?
Draw all over it to make VZW mad.
On a serious note, it would be nice if the internal sd was a real micro sd that you could remove and stick in a computer to get all of your files back.

Run the OTA RUU on it
I had the same issue with my OTA update. But Verizon won't warranty my 5 month old phone because it was not purchased on my line. Grr... Anyone that has any suggestion of how to fix it, please let me know/.

Tried it. RUU ran then on restart same thing. No go.
I think S-OFF and running a GB RUU might work, don't wanna risk getting 500 dollar spike on my Verizon bill Cuz it was hacked.
Thanks for trying guys.
I had a similar problem, if you are able, wipe everything and reinstall the update. It worked for me.
Is the stock recovery installed?
Bootloader is locked/relocked ?
Did you remove the PH98IMG.zip file from your SD card?
Did you try booting with the back cover removed?

Lol they won't bill you $500 for "hacking" your phone. Jailbreaking / rooting / etc. is all legal; the most they can do is void your warranty.

Contact HTC; see if they can warranty it if VZW won't.
I have s9+ that I didn't know to remove Google FRP from before doing factory reset. So I go through the google recovery only to get thanks for having a recovery email but we still can't verify its you. It does not have service on the phone she switch to ATT got another phone I was going to reset and sell it for my daughter who no longer uses this phone. Is there anyway to get the phone working since google, Samsung and Verizon has been zero help. Someone said to flash combination file and that would do it. But I'm struggling to find the right file. Looks like from the recovery screen it is android 8.0/r16nw/G965USQS2ARF4. Any advice on how to recover from this google lock out would be much appreciated. thx
Did you have try wipe data / factory reset from recovery mode?
re
Yes that is how I got where I am I was trying to reset phone to sell and now when boot I can't get passed logging into google and like I said I have did recovery but it say even though I can receive recovery to back up email it can't verify me.
