Recently I rooted and changed my vold.fstab in a hope of bigger phone storage and then all I got after reboot is a logo.
I using Philips w6610.
I have original vold.fstab file
My phone rooted, and have recovery
My phone don't have usb debug
I tried to make an update.zip but maybe I did not know how to do it right
Now I can't not do anything and through the search on google nothing can help too.
Thank in advance
Update, The update.zip always endup with installation aborted . adb shell commend end up with closed line
Pls helppppppppp ( I just used my phone for 2 weeks
OMG nobody care!
The only two things that pop to mind, are an update.zip (like you already tried) or trying to access 'adb shell' in recovery. Though in the last case you probably need to mount stuff manually, or via the UI of the recovery to get to the vold.fstab file and revert it back.
Can you flash your firmware

Update.zip will be aborted in the first step. I got an installation aborted everytime I update via sdcard.
I also tried adb shell and get command: closed . adb sideload update.zip return same thing with update via sdcard
Can you flash your firmware

You lost me there, searching with your Build Number will reveal multiple threads with step-by-step instructions to root/flash the phone.
I had the same firmware on my Hero when I got it, but I followed this walk-through:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4655885&postcount=1
Only part I had issues with was getting the RA-HERO recovery image flashed. I dragged it onto my sd card (not in a folder) and typed in this location on the FlashRec app:
/sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img
and then was able to hit "Flash Recovery Image". Then load a ROM on the SD card, turn phone off, and hold Home+Power to turn it back on in the recovery menu and then you can flash away.
I tried the post that you gave me, it still not working
when I try to wipe it, it said wipe aborted
when I try to install the rom, it said installation aborted

Well, that guide does work for a phone with that Build Number, I have done it, and srt4mn has also. Follow it step by step... And post where you have a problem
I tried that, when I flash the recovery image it said : flash FAILED: Could not run command....
but I download the recover image already, and put it at the root of the sdcard,and type
/sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.2.img
I dunno which step go wrong.
Frist I download Fleashrec, recovery img, and the update.zip,
put them at the root of sdcard,
install Flashrec,
type /sdcard/Recovery-RA-HERO.v1.2.2.img
flash recovery, but it doesnt work><

Did you backup your original recovery image first via flashrec (the lower of the 2 buttons)?? May be you can try to flash it via ADB:
Put the recovery.img in sdk/tools
Then in the terminal type this:
adb shell reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.3.img
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb push recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.3.img /sdcard/recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.img
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-HERO-v1.2.3.img
adb shell reboot
Try this and see whether it helps.
Fastboot will not work this way...
I'm confused now, what is ADB???
any instruction???
thank you for helping><!!
Can any one help me on this??
on can I just add the android market and make it work on this version???
Hello all!
I post this message to ask a little help as I made a very stupid mistake!
I already posted my issue in the Amon-RA recovery thread but I tried different solutions and nothing works :'''((( Help !!!!
I run a Modaco Custom Rom 3.0 and I had Amon RA recovery version 1.5.2.
I decided to upgrade to 1.6.2.
Well, you know... when it's the third time you install a recovery, you don't pay as much attention as you do the first time ... and I stupidily downloaded and installed the recovery of "Hero SPRINT"... and I owe a "Hero NOT SPRINT" of course.
Good new : my phone can load the ROM normally (hallelujah)
Bad new : of course, recovery menu can't be loaded anymore.
So, before I tried this method :
via fastboot + adb -> In case you don't have a custom recovery, so when you get signature fail errors
Code:
adb shell reboot bootloader
fastboot boot recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb push recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img /sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img
adb shell flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-hero-v1.6.2.img
adb shell reboot
But the second command fails (fastboot)... not allow.
Then, I tried the Flashrec solution (the one I used to root my phone the first time).
Backup of recovery or flashing recovery both fail with Flashrec.
Additional info : Formating the SDCARD via my phone doesn't work ... it's a Modaco bug, i'm not the only one in this case... so I can't format sdcard via my phone.
Seriously guys, I have a rooted custom ROM, there should be a way to get my recovery back :-(
Please please, don't ask me to try gold card... first step is formatting the sdcard via Hero... and I can't even do it.
Many many thanks for people trying to help me!
Don't take my post as being a solution because I'm a noob, but can't you flash the stock ROM off the Hero website and root it again?

Hmm. Right. You're in a pickle here. Locked bootloader is a nuisance.
Put the SD card into the computer via memory card reader.
BACKUP CONTENTS BEFORE PROCEEDING. Now format card as FAT32 via computer card reader. Then follow the goldcard guide (there's a copy at http://www.villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=375 or on the site here, but I dunno where it is as it's buried off front page I think)
So get your CID, do the usual stuff with making img, and put it onto card as usual. This should get you goldcard.
Then use card to downgrade to the old RUU, and root back from there
HTH
Ok guys, got it back this night, fully recovered at 3 AM!
Here's the story... with nearly all the possible issues you can encounter in the same case.
I first checked on which ROM Modaco 3.0 is based : 2.73.405.66 ... so that explains why I couldn't use Flashrec directly.
So, I started the Gold Card procedure.
As specified, I can't format via my Hero. Android beeing based on Linux, I decided to format a SD card via Linux (I'm a linux user ...), but I don't know if it changed something or not.
I could create the Gold Card.
Once I had my Gold Card, I downloaded Titanium Backup, made a donation and waited for my license to arrive.
I did a full backup.
Then, for downgrading, you need to use HTCsync. Good... oh, right, I removed it from my Modaco ROM!. So, unzip the Modaco ROM 3.0, get the PCSCII.apk and "adb push" it back on the "/system/app" folder.
Then, ok, launch HTCsync on the computer, and finally on the phone. Oh, my phone doesn't detect HTCsync on my PC!.
Aaaallllll riiiight !!! Uninstall my HTCsync, download last version, reinstall... and it worked!
Then, downgrade... and the Flashrec story went OK, so I got my recovery back. Once I have the recovery, my Hero is more or less saved. I upgraded back to the same Modaco 3.0 because I wanted to restore the whole Titanium Backup without versions issue. This did perfectly the trick! The only thing I had to reconfigure is my standby wallpaper!!!! Awesome tool !
My phone is happy, I am too... but hey, I woke up at 11:30 this ""morning""...
Maybe this will help another guy one day...
I have downloade the CWM_3.0.0.5.zip renamed update.zip.
I copied it in the external sd card and launched the recovery update.
At the end the rocovery was still the previuos one. what did I wrong?

try fastboot
Thanks for the reply can you be a bit more clear on the procedure to be followed?
I mean, can i connect with the device in Debug USB and flash the recovery using fastboot ?
I need some tutorial about how to because I'm scared to brick the device.
Normally I do something only when I've understood what I'm doing and that's why I'm looking for info.
I've read almost all the related posts in the forum but I still feel a bit confused about the CWM update.
I rooted the device and updated the recovery using the Folio 1.4 one via ADB shell with the command: cat /data/recovery.img >/dev/block/mmcblk0p7
I do not know if this command was succesfull but I guess so because I did not receive any error.
Now I need to flash the new recovery to start working and getting familiar with that befor of flashing the Honeycomb ROM.
Thanks for the assistance
miazza
Maybe this thread helps you a little bit to find your way to the new recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21955732&postcount=2
Thank you. Finally I managed and now I have the CWM flashed. I also learned the fastboot command. and slowly I'm learning... thanks again.

Hello all, So I went to flash a rom through CWM and something went wrong.. long story short it ended up being wiped in fastboot, and loosing my backup in cwm. I AM able to get into my CWM recovery and fastboot. CWM shows "no files found" when I go into install .zip from sdcard. Ive spend the last few nights trying to push a rom .zip via ADB to install in CWM, and here is my problem. Ive have done my research, have ADB running correctly, my device shows up as serial # and recovery in adb, ive placed my the rom .zip in C:/SDK/platform-tools and renamed it simply "prime.zip". When I open my command prompt from platform-tools and put in "adb push prime.zip/sdcard" I simply get a list of the adb commands.No file push progress or anything. I have searched for an answer and not found much, I apologize if the answer is simple and ive missed it in my searching. Thanks for any help you can give me!!

Use
adb push prime.zip /sdcard/prime.zip
You shouldn't use CWM - use TWRP instead, because CWM has many problems on TFP and isn't compatible with JB bootloader.

I did the same thing yesterday, as it was my first time using TWRP (always been a CWM guy), All you have to do to fix it is go into advanced and go into adb sideload, put your rom in you adb folder and run this command
adb sideload nameofzip.zip
Then the zip will be placed in internal storage named sideload.zip and you can flash it.

I would try to plug in the USB after your already in recovery.
If you cant get that to work you can always buy this:
https://shopmeenova.appspot.com/st/order.html
its a microusb to microsd its a good worst case and will get you up and running.
do you still have the rom that errored out on you on your internal storage? if so you can always try a fresh wipe and try to install again.
