Un-root Hero **without working USB**

Hey, after rooting my phone and installing a few different custom roms, my USB connection has stopped working. whenever I connect the phone to a PC via USB, the device is unrecognised, and mass-storage doesn't work. It's definitely a hardware error, since trying a variety of different roms on a variety of computers, hasn't solved the problem, and even the recovery image doesn't allow mounting the SD card.
Research has suggested that it's affected other people in the past, with the only fix being to replace the motherboard. Hence, I'm looking for advice on un-rooting, rather than advice on fixing (but thank's for your good intentions!).
So I need to un-root my phone (and set it back to factory defaults), so that I can return it to T-mobile and have them fix it under warranty. Of course, because USB isn't working, I can't un-root the "traditional" way, by just installing the RUU update.
So I'm trying to figure out how to set the phone back to its original software, and I thought I'd ask for some advice before I make a mess of things...
As far as I know, there are 2 things that need to be done:
Flash the stock rom back on
- This bit is pretty straightforward; I just use the stock update.zip files found on the Modaco Forums (can't share a link here due to new account), and use the recovery image to update. The lack of a USB connection isn't a major issue for this bit, as I can transfer the zip files using the WebSharing Lite app (which allows me to upload to the phone over wi-fi)​
Remove the Amon_Ra recovery image
- This is where I'm having issues. How do I go about clearing the recovery image, without a working USB connection? I'm not really sure how I put the recovery image on in the first place!​
If someone could give me advice on how to remove the recovery image (or reset it to the stock one... I'm not sure if there was one initially), I'd really appreciate it. Also, please let me know if I'm missing out anything important.
Assuming everything works, later I'll write out a proper guide for anyone else who's ever in the same position.
Thanks in advance
Maybe this thread could help you?.... Read the last post on the 1st page, something about re-enabling USB.
Worth a shot?
EDIT,..... The link would help wouldn't it,.... Nandroid restore left other stuff around? (No ADB, No SD) [SOLVED]
thanks for your suggestion, but it didn't seem to work. apparently the issue has cropped up for other users, and the only long-term fix is to replace the motherboard under warranty, which is why I'm asking about un-rooting.

You sure?... Have you started your phone in fastboot (hold vol- and power)? Try that to make sure if you haven't already. Once it comes up with the white screen and skateboarding androoids it'l say to press back or vol- (not sure which one so read it) to put into fastboot.
But if you have done that already,... Unfortunately I dont know how you can run an RUU .exe without USB.
yep, tried the whole fastboot thing, didn't work. I can connect to fastboot, but using the command "fastboot oem boot" , everything is normal - usb/sdcard are not disabled
(i didn't copy the exact output, and I don't have sdk on this laptop.. but yeh, that person's advice didn't match my situation).
hopefully someone else will have some ideas/comments?

What?.... It DOES connect in fastboot?... Says fastbootUSB (or something similar) on the screen?
I had same kind of problems with my usb. Try cleaning the "usb-hole"
lol, tried cleaning it but no luck.
from the research I've done, I've sorted out how to put the main ROM in place.
now I just need to find a copy of the recovery image of a T-mobile G2 Touch, and flash it using flashrec
can anyone help with that?
1. recovery - put regular hero recovery od sdcard and try to flash it using flashrec
2. root apk - delete it using root explorer

Enable USB Debugging from Computer

It is possible to enable USB debug from computer? I need to delete some file from the internal memory that causes the problem. I can't connect through adb at all.
I'm trying to fix my secondary phone (Garminfone) that that loads into desktop, but force close launcher and everything else. The only thing that I can do is connect to the computer for file sharing with the phone.
Thank you in advance.
I'm in a bit of a conundrum, myself...
I am attempting to do this, too, but for a totally different reason.
I am a VZW agent trying to extract contacts for a customer from a Moto. RAZR with a completely non-functional touch screen (no display, no function). Phone boots up fine, no sweat. Stock ROM, no backup :crying:, all of the typical means of transfer have been exhausted.
More or less, the only chance I have at succeeding is to either:
Enable USB debugging through some kind of shortcut or trick, or
Somehow, without USB debugging, figure out the user name for the customer's G-mail account (he has two, and cannot remember/doesn't use the one with all his contacts...)
Wouldn't be surprised if it's simply not possible.... but maybe somebody with a bit more knowledge can let us know! :good:
Edit: Hmm, not possible to run adb from the bootloader, but you can run Fastboot commands. None of those seem to be of use for these purposes though...
as mentioned by PhantasmRezound, It's not possible, However. adb is enabled in most recoveries. Also If the device is unlocked ( and you can flash custom recoveries ) in any way you can flash a custom recovery, back up the boot img. pull that off the device or simply put the sdcard in your computer with unpack that, edit the init.rc to start adb. and reflash it with fastboot not quiet what your after but might do the trick.
or
With the non functioning touch screen issue, If the device acts as a usb host, plug a mouse in and away you go
There's always a way.
Thanks for the input...
I appreciate the feedback, but the way I read it... it's either not going to help in this situation, or it's too technical for a noob such as myself and I'm in over my head

Customer's phone is completely stock. Hope I'm following along correctly, but I don't think this is possible without having something like ClockworkMod and pre-existing root access?

Never really tried this... but, I suspect, this won't work... not only does the touch screen not work, but the display is black.
I suppose it could be possible in combination with HDMI-out... but since the HDMI has never been set to "mirroring," I cannot simply plug it in and go (the best and only result I've gotten in this case is the red "M" logo on the screen...)
I would have given up on this hours ago, but it really bothers me when I can't figure out how to do something that appears to be so fundamental and simple...
Thanks for the inputs :good:

Well, I was thinking about this, and I think you can do adb in a stock recovery, should be able to create a backup image with the right software. It all gets a little hazy and wolly on techinical details, so I'm afraid I can't help anyone there.

Unfortunately, Garminfone is a piece of garbage, lol. There's no custom recovery for it. There is nothing I can do now, I guess. I can't get into fastboot or anything because every time I try adb or fastboot it would not recognize the device.

If nothing else, you can do a Factory Reset. You'll lose all data but it will be running again.
Make sure the phone is charged up since this will take a while.
With the phone off, hold down left on the d-pad as you power it on. It will show "Wipe User Data" and then you can let go of the buttons. Just leave it for an hour or so, it will go about wiping and restoring system files from it's own recovery partition.
Also, random Garminfone blog with interesting entries to read while waiting on your phone lol. The person started to develop a port for CWM:
http://mygarminfone.blogspot.com/
PhantasmRezound, I've done tons of wipes but no luck and I'm familiar with the website you posted. Everytime I wipe, I get force process com.android.setupwizard stopped unexpectedly on the phone.
@wolftou
Ok.... A couple more tricks to try for your specific device and then I'm all out of ideas plus it's kinda getting away the original question/topic
1 Android Safe Mode:
Android does have a safemode, exactly the same idea as windows safemode, only needed apps are loaded. This might let you remove the troublesome app.
How to get into it on your device? I have no idea and from my limted research ( google as always ), it appears to vary by manufacturer and probably device. I have booted my tablet into it a couple of times by accident but never really stopped to figure out how, that's not important anyway Just I can confirm this mode exists ( In some androids at least ).
2 Flashing an alternative rom:
Have you tried flashing a different rom? I'm not sure of your model number so I don't whether this is relevant to you but have a look at this thread it looks like you can trigger an update using a sdcard swap trick....
I'm thinking about buying one myself now... just to see what's possible with them, fortunately ( for my wallet at least ) they are not available in the UK and I've got plenty of things to fill my Android addiction for now :laugh:
all answer not similliar the question

Can you create a step-by-step tutorial? I have a LG Leon. Stock. Bluetooth/Wi-Fi disabled. My Google account won't accept. I've been trying to find ways to enable "Developer Options", "USB Debugging" just so I recover access. ADB and most of the programs I've used required USB Debugging, or wireless access.

[q] usb not recognized?

My SGH-i717 is not being recognized by my computer in download mode only when it is on in regular operating state will the computer recognize it. Because of this I cannot flash anything via Odin. I have tried uninstalling and re installing the drivers which got my phone to be recognized in the normal state... but i want download mode recognized so that I can FLASH ROMS! Stuck on ICS stock.. Strangely the device was recognizable in download mode when I was running Padawan Rom..
In settings is USB debugging checked?

Of course haha.. I am new on here but not to android..
Usb debugging is only for within android itself.
Download mode is underneath, and as such that option is not a factor.
Op.. have you tried every port on the mother board (back of pc) no hubs, no front ports?
Different cables?
If you're unable to get it working, you can follow the directions for rooting and installing a Rom without tripping the flash counter, that method is more advanced, as it requires an adb set up.
but you can copy and paste the commands in from the the thread so that'll simplify it.
That method does not require download mode nor Odin.

Tried all ports different cables, where can I find ADB method? Ive done an ADB push of 4.2 after deleting the entire systems ROM on the nexus 7...
Also would I need to ADB any new rom from here on out or new phone?
Nope this should only be a one time thing ...you'll just need to push a custom recovery.img to the phone.... ionno why your pc isn't seeing it right now bit you've said its worked before. Perhaps flashing a room zip will fix it.
Which you'll be able to do once you have a custom recovery...
Don't have a link, sorry it's late and I'm feeling lazy.
The thread is in the forum, find it, read it, read it, read it again. Then read it once more. Then have fun.
If it's still not being seen on download mode on different firmware, I'd find another pc to try....but at least you ain't stuck on stock. That's a cruel punishment lol

I can't for the life of me get adb to recognize my max. It's Verizon, H-boot 2.46. Trying to root and unlock. I've tried everything here....nothing. A little help please.
Only thing I can suggest, because it's happened to me, is to make sure you have the correct, most current device drivers loaded on your PC.

Are you unlocked, s-off, and rooted? Do you have developer options activated on your phone? Please explain what you´ve done up till now.

Don't know if you guys ever got this issue solved or not. I'm having the same issue S-on, cannot get adb devices command to recognize my t6spr for the life of me. on Hboot 2.46, it will detect the USB device malfunction if I put the device in fastboot mode, but thats about it. Device manager shows Unknown USB (Device Descriptor Request Failed). Tried the KB update for devices that fail enumeration on Windows 8.1 for x64 but the update package said my system is not affected so that never installed. Tried the alternative miniadb pakage previously mentioned but didnt seem to have an affect installing fastboot, adb, and drivers, across the system universally. Just not having any luck apparently. I guess I could just sell the phone Tampered and Unlocked haha with no fingerprint scanner functionality, flash ViperRom or some other stock look alike ROM. Was just really hoping to go back completely stock. At one point it time I was trying different PCs to see if it was just a system issue for me. Occasionally it seemed like if I let it sit in Fastboot AC it would eventually get detected and flip over to Fastboot USB long enough for me to push a couple commands to the phone. I have the right RUU but it dosent do me any good if the computer cant see the phone haha. Now no computer seems to recognize it. It all seemed to happen after I tried to S-Off the device with Firewater's method. Idk if I bricked something because it never worked or changed a CID or some other ID to where the USB isnt recognizable, but all I can get this phone to do is take an electric current from the USB, lol thats about it. I thought I had it fixed enough to where I knew what to do if i absolutely needed to get fastboot to recognize the phone but now, nothing.
Just a curiousity question here....a bad usb cable can produce this also...read through posts didnt see anyone trying a new cable...

Bricked Phone

Title explains it all, although the way I bricked it is honestly the dumbest way to brick a phone. Once upon a time, when cleaning this phone to be ready to sell, I was wiping it to clean it. I wanted to make sure it was all clean for the buyer, so I wiped USB-OTG I believe it's called (literally all storage). I immediately realized what a mistake I had made when I had no ROM, no backups, nothing at all. What is my best bet to go about fixing this now? I can reboot to bootloader and enter fastboot, but it seems like something integral is missing, because my computer no longer recognizes my DNA as a device. I still have TWRP 2.8.0.2 on my device, but I can do nothing with it because I have nothing to flash. I know there is an ADB sideload feature, but I cannot figure that one out either. Someone please help me unbrick this phone :crying:

Kinda doubtful. I do see a usb communication issue though. You say you've tried this on several computers, and I'm assuming they weren't all yours, which leads me to believe that you have been missing drivers. From what you've described I highly doubt the connection issue is stemming from something you deleted off the phone. The DNA is almost impossible to brick to the point of not being able to get it back.
Go here and get HTC Sync. This will ensure that you have all the updated drivers including the proper fastboot drivers. Install the program, and then reboot after installation completes.

From here you'll want to go in and uninstall it. This will remove the program, which has been known to cause usb connection/communication issues with rooting procedures, but it will leave the drivers behind. Once that completes, restart again. This should fix your fastboot problem. I've had the same problem after reformatting computers and then trying to simply download a driver pack rather than htc sync.
Also be sure to try different usb ports. Sometimes the ones in the front or side will cause problems, but the ones in the back or on the other side work just fine.
If all else fails, mail it to me and i'll fix it for you :good:
Bricked phone, no usb
