Stuck in Bootloader and Can't do anything.
When I turn on HTC phone, after 10 sec i see only bootloader screen. All operation not possible. When i choose recovery or factory reset, it bring me back to fastboot. When i plug usb it doesn't connect to pc. Only some command from cmd, like fastboot reboot is working. Could anyone help me?
You should run the RUU for your model / carrier.
no file
Have you tried flashing another rom? If your mobile have a custom recovery?

Hi,
I hope someone here can help me! I was trying to upgrade the recovery image and radio on my UK Orange HTC Hero but something has gone horribly wrong.
The phone no longer boots any further than the "HERO" logo splash screen. I've tried leaving it for 10mins+ but no change.
I can't get to the recovery menu
If I have the USB cable plugged in and hold down HOME while putting in the battery in, it shows "FASTBOOT USB" in red at the top left
I've tried using fastboot to flash/update/updateall/boot various signed images but all return "Remote: not allow"
I've tried various RUU recoveries which all seem to work up until the phone tries to reboot into bootloader mode and then just hang with "Waiting for bootloader"
Is it bricked? :-(
Thanks,
Paul
Some more info...
Using fastboot getvar I've got the following version numbers:
Bootloader: 1.76.0007
Baseband: 6.35.09.26
Main: 2.73.61.5
cid: ORANG00§♠Å
Try this
Try booting without the SD card in. Worked for me once.
Nope, still no joy
A logcat would be good.
Sorry, should have been a bit clearer.
The phone doesn't boot, it hangs at the HERO splash screen and won't even enter recovery mode - therefore no ADB access.
All I have access to is fastboot, but anything I try and flash from fastboot fails with "Remote: not allow", presumably because my SPL won't allow fastboot stuff.
Unless there is another way of doing a logcat?
If you are able to get to the fastboot screen then can you still get to the stock recovery and reset your factory then see what happens.

How would I do that?
Holding down Home while powering on just hangs on the Hero splash screen too.
Thanks!
Edit:
I've also tried VOL-DOWN + Trackball + Power to enter the bootloader, nothing - again it just hangs on the HERO splash screen
A shameless bump...
Anyone have any ideas?
I've tried making a goldcard but I'm not sure how it's going to help.

If you have a gold card you should be able to flash any of the HTC hero rru exe files.
That's what I thought.
Same as before though, the RUU detects the phone/versions but when it goes to flash it, the phone reboots but instead of going to the bootloader it goes straight back to the HERO logo splash with "FASTBOOT USB" in red in the top left corner (ie: What it was like when starting the RUU procedure, and all I ever see).
That's when the RUU says "Waiting for bootloader..." and eventually times out.
I've also tried extracting the RUU rom.zip and flashing that manually with fastboot (with and withhout the goldcard in place) but that doesn't work either. If I just do the rom.zip it says invalid signature (like it doesn't detect it as a valid ZIP).
If I extract the various .img files from the ZIP and try and fastboot flash them individually then I get the "remote: not allow" with or without the goldcard.
Any luck... I'm in the same situation... trapped in the fastboot..
I found the solution!
Downloaded the RUU (ftp://xda:[email protected]_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe) and while in fastboot usb run the wizard!
And the hero is working again!
Sorry but you'd bricked your phone I think.
I've had this phone for about a good 4 months now, was getting bored so i decide to unlock the bootloader, root, and install a new rom. Then i heard youwer able to activate the HTC logo button to wake and sleep your device with using a different kernel. tbaldens kernel v3.6. I have TWRP recovery installed with trickdroid as my rom.After i ran threw all the procedures to flash in Aroma installer. My phone won't turn on, when i connect it to my computer it shows up as a MTP device. When I do get it to power on its stuck at the "quietly brilliant" screen. cant get into recovery to restore from back up. PLEASE HELP! SOLDIER DEPLOYED!!!!!!!! dont have the means of sending it in. Any suggestion. Mac is my primary means of rooting. windows 8 drivers are kinda funky:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
If you have access to a Windows 7 PC, then download the RUU for your device. Next, relock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock) Next step, if you have bootloader access to your device, then you can go into fastboot (make sure it says fastboot USB). Open a command prompt, and type in fastboot oem rebootRUU. You're in RUU mode, where you can run the RUU and reset everything back to stock.

can i do this from a mac? and i can't get into fastboot because it wont go past the htc logo screen. it is identified as a MTP device in windows
Ahhhh thankfully i was able to get into my bootloader and flash my recovery! but thanks for the reply bro
Hey guys I need help. My HTC One is stuck in bootloader mode. I was trying to upgrade to the latest T-Mobile update. I tried downgrading with an RUU and I tired to flash stock recovery. I'm not all too sure what exactly happened, but I have no OS or recovery mode. All I have is bootloader mode. When I try to reboot to OS there is a bootloop. When I try to go into recovery a picture of a phone shows up with a red triangle and exclamation point. When I enter Fastboot in the bootloader it shows up on the phone as Fastboot USB. Although it says Fastboot USB, the phone is not recognized on the computer. When I try to enter fastboot commands, the prompt says "waiting for device" no matter what command I type.
If I could get the computer to recognize the phone, I could flash a recovery and a ROM or run an RUU. But that is only if I could get it to recognize the phone and I can't. I have searched for days and I can't find anything that works.
I have no OS, no recovery mode, and the bootloader isn't recognized on the computer. Please help! any help/advice will be greatly appriciated!
Please and thank you! :good:

keep on rebooting until it's seen in the PC. Make sure the driver is installed (or forcible install it if it's an unknown device).
After that, once you're able to see it... re-flash the unlock token (fastboot flase unlocktoken unlock_code.bin). That will get you back into the ROM. At least, that's what did for me:

But I can't reflash an older RUU at all, so I can't downgrade.

I figured it out. All I needed was windows 7 instead of 8 for some reason. After I installed 7 I just ran the 4.3 RUU. Now I have a different problem. Originally this all happened because I was going to upgrade to the new 4.4.2. Now I can't flash stock recovery. I have cwm but I need stock recovery to upgrade to 4.4.2. Since there is no 4.4.2 RUU I don't know what to do now.
hi. I have prime and it is stuck into twrp screen with just teamwin screen keep on flashing. nothing happens and it doesn't boot into recovery(twrp) also. tried to boot into bootloader by holding power button and volume down but nothing happens. then tried adb. used abd reboot bootloader and also adb fastboot recovery. but nothing happens, only shown "waiting for any device". thought adb not working but when I type adb devices.....it shows device serial number and recovery written next to it. I think adb works but I am not able to boot into recovery or bootloader....
earlier I was using cayanogen rom and twrp as recovery... tried to falsh another rom and from that day had this problem. if anyone knows what should do or what's the problem.. I be very thankful... please if you have any idea tell me what to do??
fastboot devices ?
SO, tl;dr-- My LG G watch turns on, then enters into a point where it is stuck doing the swirling colors boot animation until the battery dies. If I boot into bootloader mode, I cannot do anything other than reboot bootloader or power off. Recovery does not work, when I try it gives me the android guy on his back and tapping the screen does nothing. The restore tool used to be able to interface with my device, but now it does not even show up under 'adb devices.' If anyone could tell me something I can do, it would be greatly appreciated.
Is your bootloader unlocked?
Yes, I have an unlocked bootloader. When I turn the device on, it shows the little 'unlocked' symbol.
If you boot to bootloader mode can you run fastboot commands? If so, download one of the 6.0.1 roms from XDA and then follow the install instructions. If not....hmmm, not sure!

How do I do fastboot commands? I can boot to bootloader mode, and the restore tool talks with my watch and recognizes it as a device sometimes.
Via a USB cable connected to a computer and the fastboot tool installed on that computer. You also need the correct fastboot drivers for this.
