Unable to root Tmobile G2.

Hi guys, I've had a fair read through the forum already but can't find a solution to my problem.
I have a HTC Magic which I have rooted and am running cyanogen 6.0 RC.
My problem is with my girlfriend's Tmobile HTC G2 (Hero).
I initially tried running the 2 part update from Tmobile but receive the yellow triangle error so am told to downgrade my rom from the HTC site.
I cannot for the life of me get this to work, HTC sync works fine. I run the uud.exe file update and the phone boots to UUD usb mode,xp informs me of "android 1.0" being connected and the installer gives me error [171] USB connection error.
The program then terminates, the same thing happens following the guide: http :// forum .xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=645253&page=3 (cant add the link)
I'm stuck for ideas. Booting into hboot (power on and vol down) gives me my spl:1.76.007 which know for the magic was the perfect spl. The radio is 6.35.07.08.
Any help would be appreciated, all I want is this retched device to be upgraded from android 1.5!!!
Thanks in advance.
Nath
As noted in my FaQ please follow my guide on Correct drivers and check the bootloader drivers section. This should fix your issue.
Not development related, reported to be moved to Q&A.
buddn, I have the same phone all stats identical and got the same error too. It locked up the phone on the skate-boarding android screen and let a nervous half-hour of searching before pulling the battery and it restarted fine.
If you solve this please post back what I/we are doing wrong.
btdag, can you be any more specific? Do I have to use your drivers? I have used ones from the latest HTC Sync and the latest Android-SDK, I'm running Windows 7.
Currently setting up the XP mode in Win7 as plenty of people seem to recommend flashing from XP instead. But progress is slow as the hours I have to play are limited!
Thanks both,
Craig
What ROM version are you running currently and what are you trying to downgrade to?
I had SPL 1.76.0007 originally, I ended up using the engineering SPL (2007) but that was for other reasons.
But btdag's guides are really well laid out, sometimes you do have to uninstall all your drivers and just follow his steps, I know I have in the past and that normally solves everything! He provides links to ADB and HTC Sync drivers, but personally I use the ones from the ADK and the latest HTC Sync I could find... but then I'm a bleeding edge kind of guy
Can you both try the "GoldCard" Test Procedure for me in my guide here
This has been done today and there may be some edits necessary to get it completely working, it's also designed for Windows 7 rather than XP or Vista and should work on both x86 (32-bit) and x64 (64-bit) systems. Having said that it should also work on XP and Vista in a similar way.

I have updated my guide to use the latest HTC Sync drivers as they appear to support adb correctly. I'll be editing my driver guide soon and possibly removing it altogether. I'm also a bleeding edge kind of guy but i've only recently found the latest version of the drivers to work. I had no idea about the implications, until now.
hey.
i have a tmobile g2 and i used btdag's guide for rooting it. seeing i tried to simple procedure and failed, i resorted to the goldcard method. it took me only 3 hours xD.
the reason it took me so long was the wrong drivers. when i reviewed the guide i tried the drivers mentioned there and it work. oddly enough, stock drivers that came with the g2 were said to be for g1 magic. the gold card method works flawlessly and now i have a rooted hero with amon_ra's recovery and custom rom.
btdag, mate, thanks for the guide. helped a lot.
oh and yeah...the "downgrade" was actually an upgrade seeing i had an even older rom on my hero (bought 6 weeks ago). stock rom was android 1.5 (ancient )
Thanks btdag, that revised goldcard tutorial worked a treat! I now have 2.73.4705.5 installed and can play properly!
The problem I had was the fastboot driver not being installed hence not connecting to the exe file upon the reboot. After installing the correct driver for that the process worked a treat.
As a side note, I couldn't connect to htc sync after changing the driver but it wasn't needed.
Thanks for all your help. Got a "buy me a beer" link?
Nath
Glad to have two positive responses to the revised guide.
@buddin - i also can't connect to htc sync at the moment, i'm wondering whether its because of my rom but maybe it is the software/driver, i'll look into it further.
I don't have a "buy me a beer" link cause I have only re-written other peoples work. Thanks for the praise though
i had the same problem about the htc syncr for weeks, it doesn't syncronise , i found that if uncheck USB debugging, and pull down the notification bar check the syncro and then open HTC syncro then it syncronises.
i think it something to do with, when ADB is setup and working somehow it cancels the HTC syncro, but who needs HTC syncro when you got ADB
i find HTC syncro useless comparing it to ADB. except from sync contacts and calendar ,that about it, nothing more. thanks to Btdag with his so made easy to follow guides and the all the devs for doing what HTC could not do.
try it guys, i may be wrong !!.
cheers

[Q] How to get back to original HTC rom?

So I'm trying to get back to HTC to test a few things.
My keyboard is not working well at all with Froyo for some reason and I'd like to make sure it's Froyos problem (anybody else got this problem?)
I've found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622
I run the wizard and it can't find my phone, though it's connected to the usb and all.
Is that how it should be done?
There is a thread somewhere by btdag called ruu and usb errors solved. That should sort you out.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
Looks like this thread covers exactly what I'm looking for (including the keyboard issue):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=750318
Basically:
For anyone having issues with Error 155(CID-checks fail, perhaps?) or 171(USB fail) while trying to restore a rooted HTC Hero to stock with an official RUU-exe, this is what worked for me where nothing else did:
- Create Goldcard
- Extract ROM.ZIP from the Official RUU exe you want to use. I downloaded it from their main site
- Rename to HEROIMG.zip
- Boot to flashboot mode (Volume down + Power on)
- Flash.
- Reboot and enjoy your new stock HTC Hero.

Haven't tried yet but should do the trick.
Haven't found the "ruu and usb errors solved" thread though.
Thanks!
[Guide] Drivers & RRU Errors Solved
... If you need it...
This is frustrating.
Got stuck in the very first step of both guides.
The one saying to make a gold card, I can't even run adb on windows. It says command not found on cdm.
So I'm going to the more reliable guide with the screenshots.
Right on the first step when you need to uninstall drivers, I select and click "uninstall" and nothing happens.
Gotta love windows.
Anyone who succeded doing this and how?

Were you in the correct folder when you tried to use adb? You need to install adb from the sdk, and run it from that folder, else windows can't know what program you are trying to use, unless you add it to $PATH.
I use adb all the time, and have tried millions of driver versions without issue.

Thanks for the reply.
I didn't use ADB; no idea how to use that.
I managed to get it working after some struggle and what worked was:
- Install HTC Sync. That will install the correct drivers
- Install HTC RUU from the official site
It was many trial and error times but in the end it worked.
Thanks again!
i have same problem. i want back my official soft with now root, but when i tried it with HTC RUU i get error (something about please check the phone has correctly connected on computer) so i don't know where's the problem. And one question more: when i plug my phone with usb cable to computer then which mode should i use? (charge only,disk drive...)

Try Installing HTC Sync first.
You using Windows 7 right? I think it's a Windows problem that install wrong drivers. HTC Sync will fix that.
Then you can try again.
The usb you just plug and you're done, no need to set a mode. You should get a (sound) notification that it's plugged.
My major issue with this is the need for a win machine. Everything would be much better if I could just do it in linux.
My phone was sent to repair now You also got trouble with the Hero keyboard?
nope, but the gps is dead. I try to repair it by warranty. But at the moment i have froyo rom with root and as you all knows ROOT=NO WARRANTY :S

Galaxy S2 Driver Issues

Hello,
I have searched everywhere but I can not find a solution to my problem.
A few weeks ago I was able to connect my phone to my computer and Eclipse without issue. All the drivers worked even without Kies ever being installed.
Then I installed Cyanogenmod for my Galaxy S2. Here is the guide I followed.
After that my computer would not recognize any drivers. I uninstalled all drivers related to my phone, I even installed Kies. My computer still won't recognize any drivers.
Please help.
Have you tried the USB Driver for Windows from the Android SDK?
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
Thanks, I tried it but it didn't help. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers in SDK Manager. I updated SDK Manager and that didn't help either. Nothing seems to work. Kies still will not successfully install the drivers either, even if I use "Run as Administrator"
same 4 me i tried on 2 pc still nothing
Could someone please help. I use my phone for development.
If Cyanogenmod does not work with Eclipse and the Android SDK it should at least be confirmed.
Same problem here: after installation of Cyanogen PC wont recognise Galaxy S2 (even after re-installing drivers/kies; using a different PC; etc.).
I am not blaming anyone here, just wondering whether there is a solution.
Would it help to flash back to stock ROM for instance?
Ok..I have checked xda, but not cyanogen forum. The reason is a differently built Rom, not based on standard Samsung rom. I would post a link, but can't as new user. So flashing back or taking a rom based on Samsung would help.
Thanks for posting Sokarius. I am glad to hear I am not the only one with this problem.
I may back up my phone and give MIUI a try to see if that works. Other wise I may have to revert back to the stock firmware. I will be testing it more over the Holidays.
I can't believe I couldn't find this before. You're post hinted that a Google driver may be needed since CM uses the Google source.
Turns out CM has had a tutorial all along.
I followed it and everything is working now. Eclipse works great. My SGS2 is emulating again.

[Q] Issue regarding reinstalling ADB, phone running CM9

Hi All,
I recently formatted my PC, my phone is running CM9 and I am having problems installing ADB. Windows says the drivers are up-to date. But I'm unable to flash kernels. Fastboot Flasher says 'Waiting for Device' that's it.Help me please
I have a similair problem, when I want to install the ADB drivers, windows says the phone is already up-to-date. It's driving me crazy. I've been working on it all night now. Can someone please help.
Did you maybe already found a solution ??

No such luck.
download this

and update your drivers manually. When doing so browse to the driver folder in the download.
If you need more detailed instructions watch this
