During its normal operation, without anything strange. My Omate stuck and the watch is hanged out. I cant even shutdown it or restart it. Can anyone help me in this issue. How can I make soft reset for my Omate
You can't. Had this myself. You must take out the battery. Doesn't matter if you do as the Omate has no water protection warranty anymore anyways.

It's not true that you can't restart it.
Only thing you need is ADB shell on your PC (if you have MTK Droid tools you have it)
Connect watch and open ADB shell, write this:
Adb reboot
Hit enter and that's it...

Hi everyone,
Yesterday I made a Radio update to version 63.18.55.06_6.35.07.08. I made it putting the update.zip (radio rom) file in the SD Card.
All worked fine until the htc hero restarted (after appears the box with the orange arrow). Thereafter the Hero only shows the Hero logo when I turn on.
I tried to init the fastboot pressing home+power and home+back+power buttons (without SD Card and without SIM card) but always the result is the same, the logo appears and nothing happens.
The computer doesn't detects the Hero's USB connection and I can't run adb commands because it raises the "device not found" error.
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance!
Did you let the screen with the box run its course?
Did the recovery console come back up saying formatting cache?
Have you tryed holding just back+power? ive never heard of using back+home+power
And also, i think your supposed to enter recovery with the sd in.
If that works then in that state is should be found by adb.
But yes, as the poster before me said, it should show the "unpacking" image, and then it should reboot. It should then go straight back into the recovery and the recovery will format the cache. If you tryed to turn it off at any point then, then something is badly mucked up. But it isnt bricked, and probably can be saved. Its only bricked when no logos at all come up on boot. If you managed to get it reconised by adb, you could probs format the cache manualy, though i dont know the command
All the previous steps after the breack are as you say, but after the "unpacking" image, the htc hero restarted and showed the hero logo instead the correct menu.
The problem with the adb is that the computer doesn't recognize the htc hero across usb. When I write the adb command ("adb devices") doesn't displays any device, and I can't run any adb shell for the same reason. How can I run any adb command if the device isn't recognized by the computer?
Have you tryed just taking the battery out, waiting 30 seconds, putting it back in, then booting the phone holding back+power?
And adb is very strange i find... Sometimes it reconises a phone, sometimes it doesnt, for no apparent reason. Have you tryed leaving it on the hero logo for a while then running adb commands?
If he has flashed, wouldnt the USB Debugging setting be reset also, wouldnt this be why he cannot access via adb.
Hi.
I habe exactly the same problem. I have updated radion.
Now ther come only the T-Mobile Logo and that's all.
I can not enter neither Recovery Mode nor fasbtoot does do something.
Any suggestions?
Lado
this problem shud be fixed asap because i think its a threat for all hero modders and owners as our phones get killed at anytime with this process. so guys lets try to find a solution for this problem. cheers
Updated Radio to 63.18.55.06JU_6.35.09.26 and it killed my hero.
first the box with the orange arrow came up and then the whole phone died... now it wont even turn on the screen.
please fix?????????????????
I had the box with the orange arrow yesterday after flashing radio.
The phone isn't dead, I think it's just working.
I kinda paniced also when it happend but I got into recovery eventually.
When you flash a radio it does not actually install that image until your first boot (when you see that phone out the box image).
At this point DO NOT DO ANYTHING WITH THE PHONE just wait and it will install the image and reboot for you. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 10 MINUTES.
If you turn it off or otherwise interrupt this process it can really mess up your phone. however the general rule is so long as you can see the HTC logo when you turn on i.e. it still turns on you can in theory always recover, its just a matter of finding the way that works.
Hi I was messing around trying to get TWRP put on my TS and tried Super ADB tools. Hit reboot into recovery and I reckon I've done something stupid as my TS is stuck on a screen saying FASTBOOT mode... is there anyway to restart this without taking the back off? :silly:

I haven't tried this, but you could try to download fastboot to your PC and issue the fastboot reboot command. Should get you back to a normal boot.
[Guide] How To Setup And Use Fastboot
Mate you're a life saver! I think I'm too noob for this TWRP and installation. I'll probably wait till there's a one click solution to updating these ROMs. Was getting desperate was about to take back cover off!
I am glad you got out of fastboot mode, but don't hesitate to remove the back cover or sim slot cover just because you don't want to void your water-resistance warranty.
You really don't have one anyway, already.

Guess I'll install that 32Gb card I pledged for then. Which they should have pre-installed....... grr nevermind! I was able to remove the stickers from screws intact but in my excitement to reply saying thanks I just lost one lol
Hello guys. I have this Amaway A725 Tablet which I have rooted a month before. I tried to change the boot animation, which was when my tablet started rebooting and stuck at boot screen. Then I managed to install device drivers for MTK 6572. Then I tried to boot into bootloader using adb reboot-bootloader. My tab switched off and now I cannot even switch it on. I fear that I would have bricked my tablet. Please help me.

I don't know the device, but I don't think you can brick a device just by changing the boot animation.
Can you reboot in recovery? If so, do a full wipe

A factory reset would not affect the boot animation in any way,shape, or form.
OP: You'll have to see if you can find the stock firmware somewhere. Unfortunately, with little to no documentation and not much incentive for manufacturers making cheap android stuff to bother with all that, it could be quite a task.

Yep I tried factory reset from the Android System Recovery, by pressing the Vol+ and Power Keys. But now I count switch it on by any means and key combinations and I cannot remove the battery because it is irremovable. But if I plug it into my PC Device Manager shows this device "MTK USB Port" connecting and disconnecting. So what do I do?
Found the firmware and downloading it from Amaway.cn website. But what do I do now, how shud I flash it, bcoz my tab wouldn't start up by any means, no recovery, no fastboot, not even showing the charging status. Please guyz I totally depend on u, help me !!!
Folks, tried using the MTk USB Port and Mtk Droid Tools, but how to get the firmware.info or pmt file for it?
BROM ERROR : S_BROM_CMD_STARTCMD_FAIL (2005)
[BROM] Can not pass bootrom start command! Possibly tartget power up too early.
[HINT]:
What do u mean by this???? I used SP Flash Tool v5.1348.00
So my friend was trying to get some stupid game to work on my phone that my phone didn't support, so he tried replacing the build.prop for my Pantech Flex with one for the Galaxy s3. Which needless to say bricked it.
I can start up the phone, and I assume it starts up normally and goes to the lock screen. But everything after the pantech logo is black screen.
Here is what I've tried:
1. Pulling my current build.prop and editing it, then pushing it back with ADB. Pulling it works, but when I push it, nothing seems to happen. It says "Success" but when rebooting the device, my phone is still ****ed up. And when I pull the build.prop back again, it's the one for the Galaxy s3 and not the one I just pushed.
I read that the reason this is happening is because ADB doesn't have root permissions. Not sure if thats true though, as I obviously have rooted my phone.
2. Booting the device into recovery. For a while now, trying to boot into recovery leaves me stuck on the Pantech logo. I think this may be due to me flashing a recovery that wasn't for my device a while back. So I can't get into my recovery to factory reset it.
3. Booting into fastboot mode. The Flex is a strange creature, so there is no standard bootloader apparently so when using "adb reboot bootloader" it reboots into fastboot instead of a bootloader. Meaning on the screen is just white text saying "FAST BOOT mode" and adb disconnects, and fastboot devices sees the device now.
Trouble here is, I have the stock recovery for the Flex. But when I use Fastboot boot recovery.img or Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img or fastboot wipe data or anything in fastboot really, I get a "Not support!!" error. Which I assume means my phone is a piece of **** and can't be used with fastboot.
So now I'm at my wits end and don't know what else to do. I am dead broke and need my phone for work.
Is there anyway I can fix the build.prop or factory reset my phone?

So rest in piece my p9000, i can nothing, i cant do anything from my pc because its only starting for like 5 seconds, i cant shut it down because of that and i cant get in factory mode
i am so pissed right now

Is there any way to reset the software without getting in factory mode?

the phone turns on and off in a cycle of 5 seconds, so that wont work
and i cant stop that cycle.
even if battery is 0% (i even press power button many times so really its drained out). If i recharge it, the cycle starts again without me doing anything. The Power button is not broken or something. it all began after i started new ota update and the phone rebooted like "mkitty" has the same problem it seems
Same for me, I have no idea how to restart my phone. And i dont want to loose all data I have on it.
have you tried to hold the volume up and power at the same time during the restart process to try and force recovery?

Hello,
Yes . I have tried that.
I have a list of options that come up on the screen.
I have tried them apart from the wipe data/factory reset.
But it is still the same result.
Thank you for help.
Any more ideas?

It said something about wifi and audio update. I followed the instructions as per a previous update (which worked OK). I never took notice of any version numbers etc.

Its actually a great phone. Do you have twrp installed and can you get access to it? You could always boot into twrp transfer over the ROM and install it from there. If you have installed the vcom drivers then when the USB not recognized alert pops up. Go to settings and device manager. Right click the unknown device and click let me pick driver. You should be able to install it from there
The only thing I can suggest is to take the back panel of and unplug the battery. There videos on how to do this if you search YouTube or the forum. Effectively you perform a hard reset of the phone.
If and when you do get it working just twrp installed and do a backup of the whole phone working before performing any future upgrades or Rom changes. Its just better safe then sorry.
thenk you very much for that
The problem is that when I connect the phone on the off to the pc starts again the cycling through the elephone logo so the pc sees the phone for a few seconds in which does not recognises it and then is like the phone goes off until the next cycle so no time to go to device manager and install manually. but thank you for the comment.
removing the battery will void the warranty. I had the phone only since may.
It's unlikely it really matters. Your phone seller not going to take it back or fix it for free just because it's bootlopping. Well they may so just ask them. If you can't get it into recovery then a battery disconnect or contact your seller are your options
thank you

Well in that case all you need is a stock rom and yes just flash them with sp tools and it should start booting again. The fact you can get to recovery is a good sign.
