When I switch on the handset it gets stuck at the first boot page with the T-Mobile sign. The OS does not load. I've tried to hard reset the device by pressing Home+Back+Power Key. But no result.
Some one please help me on this.
When I get in to hard reset menu, below data shows.

Device: HTC Hero: G2 on Orange/T-Mobile
Running on: official HTC RUU 2.73......66
I have searched for days on this matter but to no gain.
Basically, I had everything working fine on my hero (on a custom rom i think) then I was giving it to someone else so tried wiping it all by installing the latest HTC hero ROM on their website. This was the 2.73....66 (can't remember the middle section but it was certainly for my device)
This has led to the (semi) bricking of my phone. Without sim in, I will unlock and it tells me to select a language. Okay. Then I can't proceed as it needs a sim to go on. With sim in, I unlock and all I have is 'htc' written in white on the screen.
Boot loader gives me:

FastBoot mode gives me the option to reset device but resetting does nothing.

Holding HOME + POWER brings up a white triangle with yellow exclamation mark with a phone lying beside it.
Holding home again and tapping power brings up android system recovery utility.
I can reboot system alright but can't 'apply sdcard:update.zip [Alt + S]
Or 'wipe data/factory reset [Alt +W]
At the bottom it shows
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
I have created a goldcard. As you know it is formatted so holds nothing.
I have no recovery installed
I have no nandroid backup (I was an idiot not to make one)
Please help! This is killing me! I know I've been a fool but I need the help of someone better, thanks
Update
I tried going to temp files to get the 2.73.61.66 rom.zip, naming it HEROIMG.zip then using hboot to use. It updates but still the same happens. Does this mean the firmware is itself corrupted? Is my phone a goner?
Can you please try to S-OFF or unlock your phone via HTCDev.com, if you need to update the HBooT use the goldcard method
Plan B, forget HTCDev, put the HEROIMG.zip on the root of your SD/gold card and go to HBooT, VOL-DOWN + POWER, click yes to every question, wait for it to finish and reboot your phone into HBooT again, the first line should show HERO CVT ENG S-OFF
I tried the HEROIMG.zip process you suggested but it remained HERO CVT SHIP S-ON, will now try method A
I can't update hboot through htcdev either. None of the updates for the Orange UK HTC Hero work. What the hell is wrong with my phone?
Hi, still looking for some help if anyone can do anything...
I'll do some experimenting on my device tomorrow, i think you we can fix this
Thanks Kemoba, you've been great!
Please i have HTC Evo 3d and I've never had any problem until now. When i try to switch ON the device, it shows the HTC logo for 3 seconds then restart and keep doing the same cycle over and over again until it run out of juice. I tried accessing recovery but i had no luck.
I unlocked the bootloader at HTC dev. Below is my bootloader info.

Hey XDA community,
So my HTC One M7 won't work. It boots into the bootloader (Hboot), but it won't go to the OS and I don't have a custom recovery [TWRP, CWM] and my PC won't recognize my One M7 no matter what [installing drivers, etc].
Here is the information from the bootloader:

**EDIT** The soft-brick happened when I was updating the software from KitKat to Lollipop. Forgot to add that in. Also, PCs still weren't recognizing the phone before the soft-brick happened.
Having the same issue. Did you find any solution by the way?
might have the same problem... my phone keeps trying to turn on as soon as it's plugged in and starts charging, and won't boot all the way into the OS, it won't ever stay turned off. It just keeps trying to turn on. I can hold down power + volume down and get it to load into the boot menu, but if I choose recovery, it won't load into recovery either. It won't factory reset. I can't get it to show up as a drive to windows or Android Studio (simple ADB appears no longer available)

OMGOSH!! let me hijack this thread because I'm actually going through the same thing, the phone was just working just fine and a couple of days ago it started acting up, apparently there was an attack to android devices and my suspicions are that mines could have gotten attacked as well, not entirely sure but those are my suspicions...
Well now my cellphone actually restarts itself, and it does that in a loop, once it gets to the main screen I can (sometimes) see an error message saying ???? has encountered an error... where [????] is the name of a module/process, etc., etc. I don't really know, the thing is that it can like I said sometimes show an error message or not at all... the thing is that it just restarts... then if I get to the recovery screen, it shows the same information as the one from OP, now mines is a tad different, mines has the * TAMPERED * Flag on... and I SWEAR i haven't done anything to this phone!
Is this a good or a bad sign?
Hi,
Got a bit of a problem here. I recently bought a HTC One Mini second hand from a flea market, with the apparent problem of it not being able to boot. What happens when you just normally turn the phone on with the power button is that it goes into boot loader without booting into the normal HTC phone. I'm pretty sure it's a software problem (i.e. not like the volume down button is stuck), because trying to boot into recovery, factory reset, clear storage is all useless.
Some details about the phone:
The phone is LOCKED, not re-locked. This means that the boot-loader has never been unlocked before, right?
I've tried unlocking the bootloader on the phone, and the steps are successful until the " fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin" part, where the phone doesn't react at all even though the process is shown as successfully completed.
The first few lines on the fastboot screen are:
