[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antinerd:
If you are having trouble getting to recovery, you can 1) remove and re-insert the battery 2) hold down the volume down key, then press the power button on top of your phone 3) Let your phone boot to a white screen with colorful text 4) Use your volume up and down keys to highlight the recovery option 5) press the power button to select recovery.

Now that you are in recovery, you can either restore a nandoid back up you made previously, or flash another rom (you might be best off flashing a rom that is not Sense 3 or 3.5 unless you are sure you either have an HTC Desire Z (not a G2 phone) or you know that you have upgraded your G2 HBOOT to a Desire Z HBOOT).

Hope this helps you!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aznneedlovetoo:
Every reboot it doesn't show the boot animations. and it also doesn't show the recovery screen at all. It's a display problem for sure I think.

Also the phone wont show the home screen until I tap the power button for like 2 minutes. (The LEDS pop up on the buttons, but the screen wont turn on)

I also changed the battery still no bueno.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aznneedlovetoo:
I wish it did mate. I've tried all those solutions unfortunately. Thanks anyways.

Also I am currently running the latest CM7.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] misterextreme:
Try starting up rom manager. It had an option to reboot into recovery. It might work.

Further check if there is a file called PC10IMG.zip in the root of your sdcard. Delete it when it's present.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Aznneedlovetoo:
Also tried that... and PC10IMG.zip was deleted quite awhile ago.

this is bananas. :(
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alphanimal:
Hi!

I have a similar problem here!

I sent my Desire Z in for repair (display was not working), they replaced the main board and shipped it back with the stock Gingerbread ROM.

I downgraded to the stock Froyo ROM and rooted it again (including S-OFF, flashing HBOOT, CWM recovery etc.)

I wanted to restore a backup (done before sending it in) using CWM, but when I select the "backup/restore" menu item all I get is a black screen with the CWM logo in the middle. When I press the power button it goes back to CWM's main menu.

It's the same with version 5.0 and 3.0.

I was able to restore the backup from the ROM Manager, but I don't want to install any other ROM right now because if something goes wrong, I won't be able to restore.

Is there something I can do?

Thanks!

Well, I feel like a moron.

The power button is not to select menu items in CWM. When I press the trackpad instead of Power all is fine :D

Should I install CWM 5 again or keep 3? What do you recommend?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ditamae:
From all I've read CWM is still buggy. I'd use 4EXT Recovery instead. It has fantastic support and contains all the options in CWM and more. Link is in my signature.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aDeQ666:
Im also facing the same problem before this. Im unable to go into recovery by manual that mean by using vol down + power. Just boot normally & using the rom manager to boot into recovery. Problem solve. ;)

[EVO 4G Themes and Apps] sag7392:
My bad bro...it's only occurs in conjunction with an app called ZD Box. When ZD Box indicates that you can move the app to your SD card in the pull down, that is where it is blacked out, except for the ZD Box icon. When you long press the bar, you can see it then. I'll post a screen shot when I do the next app update.

Sorry about that...but, I'm ready to test whatever else you want to finish up on this bad a$$ theme!

All the steps are same as other. if you get stuck in Waiting for device...

Turn USB Debugging OFF

Click Root

When it says: Waiting for Device, Turn USB Debugging ON

if the app gets stuck on "Rooting device... -Step #6"., just unplug the USB cable and quickly plug it back in the device to "kick" it along.

In this phone they dont have place name for manufacture. so just edit the System/build.prob file using FS Explorer as Samsung & Model Number: GT-I9100

I think this will help you... :)

Can you provide me with a little more detailed information how you succeeded rooting this device? Because I'm stuck at the second step (starting ADB server.)

Do I need to complete remove the SD card from the phone, or UnMount would be sufficient? Do I need to put the phone in a recovery mode (how it's done, if it is possible at all?)?

Hello friend

I recently bought an hdc a9100 and I´m very happy with the acquisition. I’ve already root de device (Superoneclick method) and I want continuing doing some improvements and to do so, I hope exchange some impressions with a9100 owners in a prolific way for all. I think we are looking for the same goal.

Do you known how we have access to DOWNLOAD MODE? I’ve already tried all the buttons combinations + usb pluggins and by terminal emulator procedure, but nothing. I was trying to use ODIN, but without access to DOWNLOAD MODE, showed to be impossible. I’m triyng to use ODIN in order to solve the installation of CUSTOM ROM’S and updates; following error displayed:

“failed to verify whole-file signature,

signature verification failed

installation aborted.”

After some research, I found some sites; following some links:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phylospos:
Hello friend.

Try these solutions, starting with the first then retry, then the second and retry, and so on until it works.

1. Check to make sure USB debugging is checked on in Settings > Applications > Development.

2. Close the rooting program. Turn off your phone (keeping it still plugged in). Open the rooting program and click root. Then turn on your phone and see if it continues.

3. Close the program and unplug the phone. Download and install PDANet and follow it’s on screen directions to get it to install the drivers manually for your phone. Once it is done installing, plug the phone in and reopen the rooting program.

4. If that still doesn’t work, then go to our How To Setup ADB Procedure, finish it and return here to start over.

And see this video and follow instructions (without the internet prefixe, I'm a new member and I dont have permission to send links):

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jtd245:
Thanks guys, from the help and hints in this thread I now have rooted my HDC A9100.

First it was good to know that it is possible to root the A9100, and that SuperOneClick is an easy way that works. I only use m$ windows when I have to, and it took me a while to get SuperOneClick to happily install (on XP), and much longer to find a driver for the A9100 !

Many Android USB drivers were tried, and it seems it was when I installed HTC Sync (and all the stuff it wanted), that then the A9100 in debug mode showed up in the device manager as Android USB Devices > My HTC.

SuperOneClickv2.3.2 stalled, at step 6 or 7 I think. Then with the SD card removed it went further, but again stalled waiting for device. A second try and all went well, success !

Now with root access I can set it up how I want it.

I am glad that you all succeeded to root yours A9100.

On my A9100 I have some problem with the battery, I tried to recalibrate but I do not work.

I noticed that : when I unplug the charger ( the battery is 100%) in the next moment the battery is 99% and I think is not normal. The bttery must stay on 100% a little time.

Another problem is : when you are talk on sim1 and somebody calls you on sim2 receives a turned off phone signal.
