I tried factory reset it does not work. Next i tried recovery, i press the up volume and power button and it gives me this

wipe cache partition

I tried the wipe data/factory reset but nothing it still hangs on the htc screen, i also tried the wipe cache partition and no go.

Finally i decided to try and update it using the sd card but now i get this problem

E: cant open/cache/recovery/command

install from sdcard

finding update package

opening update package

verifying update package

E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (no such file or directory)

E: signature vertification failed

any help ? All the stuff i wrote down are all my options that the phone displays. I read somewhere that i need android 2e to update files or a custom recovery but how do i flash the current one?

If anyone knows i would appreciate the help. Plus what files do i need to download for the htc g2 phone?

thanks

If i were y'all i would get ahold of HTC cause i am pretty sure they have a remote access program for all HTC devices and they could probably undo whatever happened.
[General Questions and Answers] theebest:
It sounds like he has a soft bricked. Do you know if he was trying to perm root it using visionary or trying to get s-off.. and btw you would get more help if you posted in the Q&A of the HTC G2. I would post a link but I'm using the app :P

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brucey89:
Hello,

This afternoon I made what feels like a monumental mistake on my flashed and rooted DHD. I was running CM 7.0.2, as I have been since it was released at some point last week, when it started to reboot by itself... Being impatient I did a hard reset and then pressed the volume up button, starting some kind of update, which I can only assume was a bad idea. Since this update I have lost almost everything and my phone is S-ON again!

I rooted and flashed my DHD using one of the tutorials on this board which worked fine. I downgraded from 1.72 to 1.32, used Visionary+ to give permanent root access, turned S-OFF and then used ROM Manager to install CM7.

Now I am finding it difficult to get back to CM 7.0.2. I can give myself permanent root using Visionary+ but cannot seem to turn S-OFF.

I used this link to download the H-BOOT files:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835746

I load the unzipped files to the root of my SD card and type: sh /sdcard/DHD/check

in Terminal Emulator and now when I press enter no MD5 appears and the error message after Testing Kernel Module does not match.

I have tried a factory reset which does nothing, I have tried downloading different versions of the DHD H-BOOT files from across the web but I get the same problem and when I look under my software the build number is 1.32.405.6 CL278359 release-keys.

Any advice on getting CM7 back would be appreciated!

It could have been worse and I could have bricked my phone but the tutorials on doing this were excellent so I saw no real risk... but CM7 rocks and I need it back!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
My first thought is that you still had the PD98IMG.zip on your sdcard, and you somehow managed to flash that which will remove the s-off?

Are you able to boot up at all, or just Bootloader? Edit: No sleep here, read you post properly and you say can boot into cm7.

What does Bootloader / System Info : CID ?

Try this all-in-one tool: [DEV APP] Updated! AMT v1.2 - ROOT, S-OFF, Flash Radio, Recovery, Boot

Setting: Default, Permroot > "commit changes" ENG S-off if you require to flash a recommened radio later.

Download here, extract, & just follow the instructions exactly. ENG HBOOT image is included.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brucey89:
That is correct, I do still have PD98IMG.zip on my sdcard.

I can boot up fine also.

System info is showing

Android Version 2.2,

Kernel version 2.6.32.21-gf3f553d htc-kernel@and18-2 #1,

Build number 1.32.405.6 CL278359 release-keys,

Software number 1.32.405.6.

Bootloader is showing:

ACE PVT SHIP S-ON,

HBOOT- 0.85.0007

I found my CID through Terminal Emulator it is: HTC_001
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UpInTheAir:
If that sdcard is your Goldcard, either copy the whole contents to pc (in a safe place) so it's clean, or FULL format fat32 new one and insert before boot.

Most of the guides will tell you to

remove

the PD98IMG.zip, although maybe in fine print.

Yep, Permroot & S-off is gone as you don't have CID-11111111 & S-off.

If you decide to ENG S-off as well, HBOOT will only show ENG S-off not both. You will have S-off, although it doesn't say.

The tool should work, just give it a go (no need for visionary). Read the Dev's thread & follow instructions exactly step by step. After that, should be done in minutes.

Afterthat, power off. Boot into Bootloader (HBOOT). HOLD vol down and press power on once. You should have -Off or ENG S-off. Check System Info in HBOOT menu for CID-11111111

Hi Brucey89

Remove PD98IMG.zip from SDCard once it has been installed after a downgrade, otherwise it will keep trying to [will] reinstall itself.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddie21:
How / Where / Who can Unlock the SGII from networks like O2 etc in UK ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
O2 will unlock after 12 months otherwise you have to wait until unlocking is worked out after the phone has been launched .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lynxboy:
I work for o2 and as long as it is a contract phone and not pay as you go, you can unlock it anytime by either completing the online form (google o2 'unlockmyiphone') or by calling customer services and requesting them to fill out the form for you. It can take up to 14days for you to receive the code.

Failing that, there are numerous IMEI unlocking websites online who will send the code within 24hours for a small fee.

Regards.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
I am presuming that it will not need unlocking to use a Giffgaff network sim as its part of O2 .

Three O2 shops today no stock and no idea if they will receive stock for launch 1st may .

jje
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinokirk:
You could use a Rebel Simcard. It's not the best solution but it definately does the job. I used one on my Dell Streak when they were exclusive to O2.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steve228uk:
I take it you're getting it as an upgrade direct from O2?

If not open a contract with O2 through Phones4U and you'll get an unlocked device :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AaronUK:
It is £399 with O2 but will probably be locked :mad:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AaronUK:
I also asked a popular online unlocking firm what the chances are of unlocking this handset and this was their reply:

I don't know if the database will work for SGS II. Anyone know?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddie21:
I have no previous contract, so just buy o2 payg £399 & unlock £15? (Total=£414)

Why would anyone pay £499 unlocked ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbailey:
Because at this stage, nobody is really sure that the 'unlock £15' part of the process will indeed work :) You could end up with a phone that will not currently work on the sim you may have ( I do understand you have no contract, so if you are happy with O2 payg, fill yer boots).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moandal:
My Vodafone HD2 came unlocked - that wasn't the problem. The killer was that because it was a Vodafone phone, it could only take updates from Vodafone, and their updates came months after the unbranded ones. Once the Devs got HSPL all sorted out then it wasn't so much of a problem, but that didn't happen overnight.

So be aware - it's not just the network locking that's an issue when you buy a phone from a network.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AaronUK:
Thanks for the heads up. I think O2 don't mess around with their handsets. Only Orange, T-Mobile & Vodafone.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AvRS:
This was the same with the first batch of O2 HD2's only accepting O2 specific updates which they changed after the second batch went out as were getting too many complaints. Hopefully they've learned from this and will allow standard manufacturer updates from the start. This wasn't due to particular messing around it was due to the serial numbers being registered with the manufacturer as not being generic therefore updates were refused by them. I doubt Samsung are quite as good as HTC with the regular updates but always good to know you can update when it's available.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xspyda:
Here's a response I received from a query I made of an eBay seller in relation to unlocking the SGS2...

"This is GUARANTEE TO WORK because this code is directly from Samsung and it is permanent. After you unlocked it, you can do software update or anything you like and it will still be unlocked."

Sounds promising...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jklondon:
It does but would like to know for sure before buying.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manks:
you say it can take 14 days for the code to arrive...is that normal or is it usually quicker?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] entropia:
Successful unlock?

Did anyone hear about any successful SGS2 unlock?

I also read in some places that when you buy PNG from O2 it is SIM free. This was the case when I bought an iPhone 4 when it came out. It was SIM free out of the box.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mur76:
just either get CPW to price match which they are supposedly doing at £399, or waith two weeks as they are goint to that price soon.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chukkie:
This is very stupid from me but as with the SGS, would it be possible to retrieve the bml3.bak file and unlock?

I'm just assuming samsung is using the same method of hiding the Network Control Key.. maybe they're lazy.. :p

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android167:
Ok, so, i sold my SGS because it was boring and i wanted to buy Desire because it has a LOT of custom ROMs and it has Sense UI.

What are the main disadvantages of this phone.

Or i should save some more money for DHD?

Desire cost 220€ and DHD 330€...

What should i do?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
Main disadvantages is definitely low memory(512mb) and lack of real multitouch.

It's still a great phone when taking the price into the equation.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] android167:
Real multitouch? Can you explain it? I dont understand...

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Meaple:
You may as well get the Desire S really.

Sent from CM7
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Borat38:
Custom ROMs with Data2SD or A2SD+ will solve the memory problem of the Desire.

The DHD, in my opinion, is an inferior product in that it doesn't offer much more than the Desire does, and even has a smaller battery while sporting a larger LCD display.

You should just get the Desire S, IMHO.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] faiz2036:
for me.. desire still relevant and worth to buy since the new phone still using single core processor. a lot of customization is make desire very useful in the future because of the development of desire custom rom is still in progress. :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ksavai:
Desire is almost 2 years old now. Its great but check newer Desire S.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Royal King:
I think it released in 2010.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Personally, I love the Desire line. Even the basic provides just about everything you need. Completely customized if you wish to root and flash ROMS. Not to mention, it is probably still one of the top selling phones.

As with processor, who needs dual core? Hardly any apps for it. If you need more speed, you can overclock it. :eek: (like me)

As with memory, as previously stated, when you customize it, you can partition and move apps to the SD card.

If you can get it for a good price, I'd go for it. In fact, I'm thinking of getting another for my wife. Besides, the basic design for HTC hasn't changed much.

Not to mention, Desire forums have the best support. :D
