Hi @ all!
Used Hasoon2000s toolkit to unlock and flash CWM - seemed to work fine, but: in CWM i cant´t flash any zip from external SD-card!
Evertime i try, it gives me an error: Cant mount sdcard...........so i am not able tu flash SU!
Would be fine if someone could give me a tip to solve this issue!
Anyway: Thanks for the good work!
EDIT: Solved! Tried another SDcard and it works! (.....but buggy card works fine in HTC Desire C - ????)

Hey guys,
I am doing this rom flash for a mate of mine.
I am trying to flash the tastyginger rom, but i am having some real difficulties while flashing the rom.
He has a dutch htc hero from hi. He has the latest rom according to the update utility thingy. it is the 2.1-update1 version. i believe i've read something about nand locks, and i think his phone has exactly that. the first step to flash a new rom is to root the phone. Rooting the phone works, gives no errors.
But when i try to flash the recovery image, it says it cant find the flash_image file.
it is should be located in the system folder on the phone but it isn't. i've tried to install it with android sdk, but the thing just is really acting weird. htc sync isn't working with the phone. it says there isn't a phone in the usb.
Now to make it clear, can somebody give me a clear tutorial on how to flash the thing correctly? I've done this before on my hd2. i've flashed the cyanogen 2.6 rom to my phone.
have you tried rom manager to flash rom its the easiest way i know. the way i rooted was with universal androot apk then installed rom manager clicked on flash clockworkmod recovery then went to install rom from sd card in rom manager scrolled down to the rom i wanted to flash choice it and pressed ok i then select backup existing rom and wipe data and cache and pressed ok then it will ask reboot and install and press ok and let it do its thing then wait untill it reboots and it should of installed rom which you wait to boot should have a custom splash screen that comes up and wait until your prompted to input details and such. hope this helps.
hey, thanks for the advice.
i let him try this method, but when he chose the htc hero gsm to install the cwm, the app refused to install it and gave this error message:An error occured while attempting to run privileged commands.
I forget to mention that the method you posted, that we already tried it.
But thanks for the effort!
pretty certain this is the tut. i used, i also had to use the gold card method -.-;

rom manager has been down lately everyone has had trouble flashing clockwork recovery, but ra recovery second from bottom is a secondary choice however other features of rom manager might not work if you use this you will have to boot into recovery manually.you also need super user to use this as well.
http://zenthought.org/content/project/flashrec
Use this apk, i have always used this method!
Download clockwork or ra recovery rename it to recovery.img and copy to sdcard
Backup recovery with flashrec
then type sdcard/recovery.img
flash recovery and done!
I've done the recovery succesfully at the guys phone. It works bloody well. Thanks dudes! You can lock it up if you want to.

I am using a rooted Atrix ME860 without CWM recovery. (USB Debugging mode is off)
2 days ago, in an attempt to enable multitouch in my mobile, I edited touchpad.cfg located in system\etc\touchpad\22 using root explorer following some guide found in internet. (I did a backup before editing it). After restarting the mobile, the screen became irresponsive to any touch. I did a lot of searching and finally, I tried to make an update.zip to place back the back-up touchpad.cfg in android recovery mode. However, it failed every time when come to signature verification. (I tried 5-6 type of different signer app, java script etc and made over 30 update.zip but all failed)
With my limited knowledge to android phone I did an external hard reset thinking all would be done, but the screen is still not response to any touch after that.
Any suggestion guys?
Thank you.
You can't use stock recovery for custom ZIPs, only for officially signed ZIPs.
Hard reset is also irrelevant since it doesn't touch /system at all.
See here, maybe it helps: http://cleanimport.xda/index.php?threads/1813668/
try to update through fastboot. do more search how to?
or try to flash cwm recovery as a start.
any way your phone not bricked, the last resort will be flashing sbf but u will not going through it.
Thanks for replying.

Yes.
After searching I unlocked my phone and installed CWM recovery and a CM9 unofficial ROM found in this forum. Thanks for the help.
The touchscreen problem was solved but there is another new problem..
My phone failed to mount the internal SD card. I tried to mount it in setting -> storage -> mount SD card (under internal storage)
Nothing changed except a notification about SD card safe to remove appear. (This notification appear each time after rebooting phone too)
I tried to mount/format SD card/emmc in recovery but got error. Reflashing CWM and ROM also didn't help.
I tried most solution found in internet except the relock then unlock method as i have no idea how to do that.
Thanks for any help again.

Which version of the phone do you have? Sounds like the INTL one to me. You can still follow my tut here to get your rom and gapp's on your phone to flash.
Good luck
Maybe a silly question, but, do you have the windows drivers installed for the phone?

Thank you for the quick reply.
I managed to make it work.
Basically it seems like the phone takes time to get recognised by my system, is this normal?
After mounting the usb storage from recover and plugging the usb, when I used adb push, it says device not found.
After a minute, I used the command line again and it worked.
I pushed both the rom and gapps.zip file and installled them and now it's working.
My question now is: I had apps, messages,calls and contacts - is it possible to get them from the backup as well as keep this rom that I've just installed?
PS : is not connecting to the wifi, stating that there are authentication problem, is this normal?
Thank you
Can someone tell me if the wifi connection is an issue with this phone when intalling the rom mentioned earlier.
I had apps and other stuff on my phone, I can still see their respective folders, can I restore my apps back?
ps: I made a full backup of my official rom, I wanted to restore it back and this is what I've done:
Wiped system,dalvik,cache and factory
then restored all three partitions of my backup.
It turns on but it keeps hanging on the htc one logo
what can I do in this case?
Thank you

I could be completely wrong but you might have to flashed the boot.img from your backup? did you flash a boot.img from a custom rom? TWRP won't flash boot.img properly so it has to be done in the bootloader.
Hope this sheds some light on your issue
Cheers!
When we make the backup, TWRP doesn't create a boot image file,at least not explicitly.
The file with the name "boot" have md5 and win extension.
I thought the same thing, that probably I need to flash the boot.image file as I did flash a custom boot before installing cm10.
So where is the boot.img file for my stock? how can I extract it?
Can anyone help me to get this pls! Tittle says it all
Thanks
I'm needing the same thing, but can't post on CWM thread yet.
I sort of found a fix to this.
I used a generic version of CWM that doesn't have a kernel in the recovery.img. I have to format internal sd manually after first boot, then CWM works perfectly after that.
Hi Guys
I'm a noob in this but i wanted to install another ROM on my max 2.
So i wiped the data and then copied the new update.zip to the root directory.
Now if i want to install it the update or installation fails and says "cant mount /cust".
So i think the phone is not able to mount the partition called /cust. What do i have to do to get it work?
The phone has now no OS installed on it and i'm not able to install it or get it started
Thanks your any reply. Hope i get i work with your assistance
best regards, Chris
I'm able to communicate with adb and go into recovery mode...but dont know how to make a fully installation or to get the os installed...
Hi, I had long time ago a problem with this. It's because of TWRP that you have. If you would install the modified one, you wouldn't have this problem. See here
