Try turning it on with the power button and the second you see any life hold down home.
I don't think this will work but it might be worth a try.
its already in recovery,you have adb debugging enabled before update?
Try this in a CMD Window..
adb devices
if it works you could be ok

adb shell flash_image recovery recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.3.1.img
oradb shell flash_image recovery-RA-hero-v1.5.3.1.img
I cant remember which soryy, but one should work!
device not found
Hi! I am in the same s..t so I tried it all
some people managed to do this and get it working again :
-On the PC, i ran the command 'fastboot boot recoveryimage.img'.
-At this point the command says 'waiting for device' (or something like that).
-I removed the battery.
-I Connected USB.
-I inserted the battery.
-I booted the phone while holding the HOME key.
-The phone still froze at the first splash screen, but then suddenly, the waiting fastboot command detected the phone and booted the recovery image! Yay!
MINE IS EXACTLY LIKE THE YOUTUBE VIDEO and it didn't!
Any other sugestions?
[email protected]
yea i think u have different problems,his goes to recovery.yours is doing the same as my Sapphire which is being collected by HTC tomorrow for repair pressing HOME+POWER will not get to fastboot! it will take you too recovery
and finaly the FIX
finally some one knew how to fix my HERO!
a guy with a lot of electronics knowledge and a device that connected directly to the matherbord and wiped the rom and rewrote it!
rom gets stock if you are smart enough to flush it with the wrong update (CMDA ta a GSM phone)!
so that's the only solution for this kind of situations!
Thanks for all answers. But only kind to solved this is with JTAG to Motherboard.
Thanks!
same issue here
Hi everyone
I've got the same problem showed in that video. Could you guys help me out? Is JTAG the only way? My mobile simply can't be recognize on Windows and ADB just doesn't list the device...
I've tried every key button combination, but all I got is that Out of the Box image (seems like it's the background of the recovery mode or smthg)
I got my phone charged from USB (from my notebook) but windows doesn't recognize it, even if I dloaded the drivers for it.
Any suggestion would be of great help
Thx a bunch

phone and the box image
sorry if this is a bit out of place but i had something similiar but not as major...i just tried flashing my radio update today and it went well till it said reboot press home and power...i pressed that then it got stuck in phone and box picture for a good 5 minutes..i didnt know how long to late because im new to this..thankfully when i pressed home and power and it came back to the recovery and i just reboot and it works fine now!
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?

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
I need help. My htc amaze 4g is rooted and I have s off and super cid and i was running on android revolution hd rom, an app by the name of root mobile odin pro was installed on my phone, it was attempting to create a dump file so that I could give it to the dev so that he could possibly make my cell phone compatible with the app. But now my phone will no longer power on, it does not charge, no led light, the battery is full, has sd card, no sim card. under device manager on windows 7 it comes up as QHSUSB DLOAD. Will not run into recovery mode when vol down and power button is held. Computer does not recognize it. Can not run adb in cmd prompt, no reboot command works because device can not be found. I've tried to do everything on unlimited io page to no avail. When I do connect the phone to the PC it does make a sound to inform me that I just connected it.

What did you do with the app? Did you attempt to flash ANYTHING on the phone? Sounds like you did however and messed up with one of its internal partitions.
EDIT: I'm going to go ahead and say you bricked your phone. I just re-read and... Why would you install something meant for *SAMSUNG* phones, on a *HTC* phone? You messed up right there. The unbricking project only will unbrick HTC Amazes when they're bricked in a certain fashion. It specifically states that it is known to be working for "writesecureflag 3" type of bricks. You could try and see if it will work in your case, but it probably won't. More likely than not, with the app you used, you might have accidentally wiped a partition that would have been safe for samsung devices (but dangerous on HTC devices).

*** I am so devastated, my cell phone was so valuable to me. Can't believe I was so senseless to make such an error as this. The app was for Samsung but the app said it could create a dump file so that my device would become compatible . But that sounds so stupid to me now . A little too late. I'm so sad. I wish there was some way to fix it. Wish there was a USB jig for HTC's.
IF YOU KNOW OF ANYTHING, ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING THAT MAY HELP PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!!!!!
(Thank you for all the reply's)
IT happens
Hey it happens, that how we learn thing sometimes, and sometime it can cost us. You could try these things
1) See if it can be JTAGed (cheapest possibility)
2) If it's still under warranty (which it probably isn't) send it off, and say it wouldn't power on after a update.
3) Find a Amaze with a broken or cracked screen, and replace the motherboard yourself.
That's all I can think of. Good luck
Hi all, it's my first post here
My Galaxy S II (stock ROM/recovery) has fallen into a reboot loop while I was texting and I'm positive I didn't install new apps recently, so I can't really tell it's an app bug. Last thing I did before texting was disabling Swype.
All I know is that TouchWiz now crashes after boot displaying its usual dialog window.
In addition to that, I've just broken the display, so I can't see anything going on screen...
How can I recover pictures from the internal storage? How can I stop the reboot loop long enough to back up everything with Kies?
I've tried booting in safe mode but the phone keeps on rebooting and I have no visual feedback of successful activation of safe mode. Prior to breaking the screen I could access the stock recovery, so I guess I can still do it, if needed.
TIA,
Andrea
Recovery should be enough if it works. So try getting into recovery and connecting it via ADB. Then you can get data with "adb pull <location-on-phone>"

When you say "recovery", you mean stock recovery or a more advanced one (CWM, etc.)?
I've never used ADB, I'll try to set it up as per these instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1917237
EDIT: Do I need to enable debugging on the phone? It's currently disabled and I can't do anything about it because of the reboot loop...
don't know
I don't think that it's possible to recover the data on your device's internal storage now. Rest if anything works do post your experience here with respective procedure or snapshots.

Oh crap ... yes, i think you need to have debugging ON (never actually tried without it). Well, you can still check it. So set up ADB (hope those instructions are good, I can't help you there as I don't know how things work on Mac) and type in "adb devices". If everything's OK, you should get one device listed (some weird number). Then type in "adb pull <location on phone> <location on computer (optionally)>. If you want more info about commands, just type "adb" and you'll get everything listed. That should be it ... if it works in first place :fingers-crossed:
EDIT: Stock recovery should do fine.

Yeah, I've tried with another (working) S II and it seems you really need debugging turned on...
Is it possibile to use a custom recovery to copy data from internal memory to the SD? I could try to do it blindfolded :cyclops:

Possible ... maybe. But that would mean you need a recovery with file manager - and file managers are usually touch-based. So you can't do much if your screen is broken. I suggested ADB because it was the only option that would work for sure and you don't need screen for it ...
But ... maybe there still is a way ... You could try reinstalling ROM via ODIN and syncing with Kies. Download stock ROM for your country and carrier from www.sammobile.com/firmwares, get your phone into download mode and insatall via Odin. This should work. You're not doing any factory resets, wipes or anything - just "dirty flashing" the ROM over existing one, so data and (most) apps remain untouched. Then you can try connecting with Kies. From there I don't know exactly how stuff works (don't have a Samsung device), but hope it can launch without touching anything on the phone.
I suggest removing the SIM card before trying, so it doesn't get stuck on PIN unlock screen.
This is really your last chance ...
Your next option is changing the screen
Good luck

You're right but, if I'm not mistaken, CWM "touch" file manager can also be used with the physical buttons. I've never tried that, can anybody please confirm?

Okay I have seen various requests so I decided to hook it up, I had to pay for these but here ya go. I have full firmware for lollipop or kitakat and you can get them from the following links to my google drive.
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BxcLJPerShJ_ZDJrNV9fRVBSdU0&usp=sharing
Within you will see two folders you can pick either kitkat or lollipop and to do a full flash download the files starting with ALL then flash with odin by placing in the pda section. The others shouldnt even be needed if your looking just to fully flash the device use the ones that start with the label ALL. Enjoy. Wish someone could get the bootloader unlocked for this variant. If their are any other variants that need firmware let me know ill see what i can do.
I am curious could i perhaps flash the csc for tmobile then maybe my dev settings let me unlock bootloader like tmobile variant? I am not certain but I feel like it could possibly
Any luck with that ? ? I bought this phone on Valentines Day with android 5.1.1.

That´s the history. I recieve the samsung (sm-g530az), but the smartphone don´t connect to wifi, when you choose the network only appear "Saved, Protected". No matter how much times you select the network, always appear the same thing and the device do nothing. Well, i thinked in that moment in change the firmware. I read in this forum a possible solution, that solution says "Download the Samsung Kies, then connect your device and select -upgrade your device-. Type your model and S/N, and Kies does the rest". I did it, everything seemed fine, until the process stopped. And an error message appears that says "Disconnect the phone and retire the battery, then turn on + ^ + home to start the emergency recovery". I did it all, but when i connect it, my pc, odin and kies don´t recognize it, my Samsung died. I put the phone in download mode and nothing happens. I reinstall the driver, kies and everything and odin at last recognize my device. Then I dowloaded "Philiz Touch Recovery" and I could flash it with odin. After all, I clean my device and prepare it for a custom rom. I installed it "cyanogenmod 12.1 unofficial", but when restart the device, it doesn't enter to the system, only boot in recovery or bootloader. But my pc don´t recognize my device in download mode, and I can´t flash it with odin. So I need the backup to restore my device.

ya i think you messed up royally, their is no working philz or cwm for the 530AZ at all because the bootloader is locked soooo i dont see how you ever flashed it with that in the first place, but if you indeed were able to then it looks like you have a soft brick of sorts since the bootloader is locked on that model, their is firmware but you for some reason are unable to flash with odin so sadly I am not sure what else you could do other than maybe see if it is recognized on other usb ports or computer also check your device manager in windows and check and see if the usb device is listed if it shows a yellow exclamation or unknown device then manually update the driver for the unknown device as an android device

No matter how much times you select the network, always appear the same thing and the device do nothing. Well, i thinked in that moment in change the firmware. I read in this forum a possible solution, that solution says "Download the Samsung Kies, then connect your device and select -upgrade your device-. Type your model and S/N, and Kies does the rest". I did it, everything seemed fine, until the process stopped. And an error message appears that says "Disconnect the phone and retire the battery, then turn on + ^ + home to start the emergency recovery". I did it all, but when i connect it, my pc, odin and kies don´t recognize it, my Samsung died. I put the phone in download mode and nothing happens. I reinstall the driver, kies and everything and odin at last recognize my device. Then I dowloaded "Philiz Touch Recovery" and I could flash it with odin. After all, I clean my device and prepare it for a custom rom. I installed it "cyanogenmod 12.1 unofficial", but when restart the device, it doesn't enter to the system, only boot in recovery or bootloader. But my pc don´t recognize my device in download mode, and I can´t flash it with odin. So I need the backup to restore my device.
Try to install "Philiz Touch Recovery" with Odin. I did it, and works for me. When I recieved the samsung, i don´t unlocked the device and I could flash the CWM. Thanks for your response

Hello, I know is late. Is already 2017 happy new year. But i was looking the post and reading the thread. I'm looking this information to try on my friend phone that want to root. Anyway. I maybe have a solution to fix the bootloop. since you went to philz recovery. There is a bug with philz recovery. If im correct. But i got it fixed with some zip file and using command on that flash. If you still need this solution let me know. I can post the zip file and step by step of the command.

HEY I REALLY NEED THAT!
I don't have the actual CWM on my phone yet. I just got it today. I already have it rooted, deodexed, and debloated(somewhat).
I was able to root it using kingroot. I'm still working for a way to replace the newest kingroot(5.1.0) with SuperSU.
But my question is does it actually work? Have you flashed the tar with odin and fix the code in it with commands.
Just reading your post gives me chills honestly. I like doing things as soon as I can! I'm a phoneaholic.
