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.
I just flashed the Energy.RAPHAEL.23554.Sense2.1.Mar.30 rom on to my sprint touch pro and everything went fine no problems, the ruu confirmed that the flash was successful and my phone rebooted and now all it will do is continuously reboot itself. I tried every method I know of to try and hard reset it to no avail. It restarts itself, goes to the TOUCHpro logo splash booting screen for maybe 20 to 30 seconds and never goes any further then it restarts again. if anyone out there thinks they can help me PLEASE do so... I'm completely clueless what to do from here. thanks.
update
I've been able to go into bootloader mode now and break the reboot cycle but now my pc is failing to recognize the phone. I have vista and I reinstalled mobile device center and it won't recognize it when I plug it in. on the phone in bootloader mode it will change from serial to usb on the display when I have it connected so I don't know where to go from here. any ideas?
thats how bootloader works..once it says USB just run the RUU. itll work fine. may have been a corrupted download, so id re-download it or just grab a different rom to flash.
My phone restarted one day and just wouldn't boot up. At first it was just stuck on the SAMSUNG logo, but after trying to boot into recovery, it now sits at the boot animation. When I try to boot into recovery, the CWM screen will come up, but no menu will show up, and then the phone will restart after a few minutes and go back to being stuck on the boot animation.
I can enter Download Mode, but USB Debugging must be disabled since ADB won't recognize the device and I can't send any commands (yes, drivers are installed).
First of all, is there any way I can recover the data on the phone? That is more important than getting the phone working, since I was just about ready to get a new phone anyway.
What can I do to get the phone working? Everything involving flashing a new kernel, or resetting the phone back to factory seem to require a working recovery or the ability to send commands through ADB, but I'm probably missing something, since there must something else that I can do.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
**Not sure if this is related or not, but the reason why the phone restarted before this issue occurred is because the power button on the phone is a bit faulty. Over the past couple months I've been having issues with the power button; it seems overly sensitive so when I push it sometimes the screen will turn on and off and other times the phone will just restart as if I held the button down for too long. This is the main reason why I was ready to get a new phone.
Hey guys,
So really in need of a little help. My OnePlus X started acting strange when it refused to take charge when it was booted into OS (Lineage). However, I noticed that if the phone was off, it would boot immediately upon connecting a cable. So it seemed as if nothing was wrong with the port or the cable (tried various cables and chargers). A little more digging revealed that the phone charges in Fastboot mode. Anyway, I decided to factory reset it and for some reason it was stuck in a boot loop.
I then tried to restore back to stock using Mega Unbrick Guide which worked in the past. Now my problem is that its stuck in fastboot, wont boot into the OS. I can boot to the recovery and fastboot. In recovery when I choose Install from local, i get no browser to search the SD for zip files, nor does the phone detect for me to use adb sideload.
Any ideas as to why this is so?
Thanks!
Hi. So today, i was using my 1 year old phone when suddenly, the power/reboot screen appeared and my phone rebooted. It then started to loop every 2-3 seconds. I tried recovery mode but i coudn't hold the volume button long enough before it rebooted. I had USB debug and a bunch of other dev settings on allready and tried to use ABD but my PC didn't recognize my device. I then put the phone away for a while and turned it on. It worked. But then, it re-entered the loop and it worked again. It now is in a stable position, i recovered all my data. I suppose this may be a hardware problem but i don't know much. What do I do/how shall I fix it preferably without having to go to a repair center or something?
You can try to install stock rom but first adb must detect your phone. Make sure you install the adb/fastboot drivers and the USB drivers for your phone.
