Please help!

hi all... this is my problem...

i have a DHD which was rooted using AAHK about a year or so ago. i was running MIUI Rom 2.3.9 i think and wanted to update to the latest one. during the installation of update it loaded to the MIUI screen but never got past that point so i tried to get into recovery by pressing volume key and power key but cannot get into recovery.

so i thort mayb i can use a command promt option from the AAHK and accidently ran the root again. it seemed to run then got stuck on downgrade complete... starting new process... please be patient...

that hung there for a while so i got impatient and pulled the battery.... yip i pulled the battery...so i probably hard bricked the phone!!!

anyways... now the phone only starts up and hangs at the white screen with green HTC on it. wont go into recovery when pressing down power and volume keys.

i installed the android SDK tools and tried that but ADB wont recognise my device. its plugged in via usb, on and charged... im using windows 7. says device not found...

how can i get ABD to recognise that my device is connected.

i also used usbdeview and it says my device is connected as mass storage so i dont know what to do. ive checked the grivers and they say they working fine. should i delete all drivers and see if i plug the phone in if they will reload? im scared that if i delete them ill never get the phone to connect with ADB.

ok... so what are my options? if any?

or is my phone hard bricked and beyond all hope?:crying:
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
Is this still a problem? Are your HTC Sync drivers installed? Try a battery pull when disconnected (so the phone is off) and then holding volume-down and power.
[Desire HD General] glevitan:
Can you access HBOOT? ADB commands do not work in fastboot or hboot. So, it is normal that your phone is not getting detected. As you are S-OFF you can re flash CWM from fastboot or a RUU you choose. Use the guide in my signature for guidance...
[Desire HD General] laverne:
hi there... i finally am able to get to HBOOT! Realised i had to hold power down, volume down and push battery in at the same time...

i will try to flash CWM and see what happens... thanx

marsdta you are a legand, i was really thinking id knackered my phone now its working better than before! I cant thank you enough mate, nice one :good:
[Desire HD General] Noblelox:
Still not working for me :(

Hello helpful people. So far this very helpful thread has not helped me fix my phone.

I was actually trying to unbrick my son's phone, and had his SD card in my phone to wipe it, when a boot went wrong, and now I go straight into HBOOT every-time I start my phone without pressing any buttons. Once in HBOOT none of the buttons work, so I can't even get to Fastboot. So I know the button physically works, as I've just started the phone.

So I've formatted my own SD card, and just tried it again with a spare SD card, and put the PD98IMG.zip from the second post on this thread on both cards, and it always gets stuck on the following:

ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL

HBOOT-0.85.0024

MICROP-0438

RADIO-26.10.04.03_M

eMMC-boot

Apr 12 2011,00:55:45

HBOOT

Parsing...[SD ZIP]

[1] RECOVERY

and no further. I have left it like that for 30 minutes, just incase it was taking a very long time to do anything, but I think it is just stuck there.

So I'm stuck in HBOOT, with no access to Fastboot, running an RUU ROM results in an Error [120] less than 30% battery, when there clearly isn't, the battery is a relatively new 2000mAh battery that is fully charged.

I am also pretty confident that this is not a hardware failure of the VOLUME DOWN button, as I have taken the bronze rocker off and checked the copper caps for play, and they both pop back up when pressed.

So please help! I've ran out of avenues to go down.

P.S. I did manage to get my son's phone back working, but it looks like it was at the expense of my own :(

Can we flash CWM recovery on an un-rooted HTC Desire HD through hboot by renaming the "PD98IMG_cwmrecovery.zip" to "PD98IMG.zip" and booting into hboot ?
[Desire HD General] bananagranola:
Is hboot unlocked?
[Desire HD General] marsdta:
Only if you already had soff. Root wouldn't matter. If you are son then you would have to unlock the boot loader first then flash cwr from fastboot

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twtww:
Anyone?

Many i9020t and i9023 get the OTA

But I haven't seen any i9020a get that.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandriod:
Not yet!

I think I am going to wait since the instructions in the other thread seem to be for i9023 and it seems to be giving signature error for i9020a.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twtww:
Thanks.

I just found that the ROM was for T-MOBILE(TMO)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:
Hold on ;)

Because of minor difference between two models, i9020a will need to go through some changes for it to function properly. I heard that if you manually update i9020a with i9020t ROM, you will either get an error or it will kill your reception :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twtww:
:)

I know!!!

Thank you!

I just found that an i9023 can be flashed the i9020t's rom.

How many days we should wait for?

A week or a month?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] daudster:
This is ridiculous that i9020a users get left in the dust. -.-
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twtww:

Awkward situation for i9020a

It seems that the OTA for i9020a is the stuff of next year.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tmcquake:
Settle down. It's been one day since Google announced that ICS is rolling out. They said it will be happening over the next month.

Patience.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwyman:
Just flash the Neapolitan rom and be happy besides with that rom you don't loose cwm and still have root.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twtww:
Why the i9020a is the last one.(except ns4g)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwyman:
Maybe because it was the last one to come out...or maybe it is a way to keep from overloading the server. Only other thing I can think is that maybe they are working on a new radio for the att version
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twtww:
No idea.What we can do was waiting or flashing the TMO version.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvanlew:
Probably a mixture of all these. I have an i9020a and I'm running the neopolitan ROM for now. It's great. I was on stock 2.3.6 with cwm recovery. Just wiped all and flashed it. It kept the bootloader and the radio.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xda<3:
I haven't gotten it yet :(
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tom_cat:
No update for 9020a yet, -1 for google
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyokeun1234:
The update should come sometime this month. Since thats when google said thats when i9020a will get the ota update. It also depends on where you are.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djwyman:
who needs the ota now when there is so many good roms out there? I think the only advantage to the ota coming out is possibly a new radio that might be better.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bozzykid:
It may be this month but Google never said it would be this month. They have never stated when/if the i9020a version is getting ICS. There's a difference between a French website posting false information and Google actually making an announcement. JBQ (from Google) has recently said 4.0.4 is not even finished yet. So I highly doubt 4.0.5 will be released this month before 4.0.4 is finished.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 309041291a:
Not troll anyone... but does it matter? If you root your phone you can install a custom ICS ROM. Its much better than stock in so many ways... And if you want something very close to stock there are ROMs like slim ICS.... PSH OTA's. :p

[Thinkpad Tablet General] sakobatoneko:
I have tried connecting my tablet to a wirless N connection but it doesnt pick it up. Anybody have this problem or know how to connect to a wireless N connection on the tablet?
[Thinkpad Tablet General] obscure.detour:
I haven't tried it, but I believe it'll only work if the Wireless N Network is the 2.4GHz mode. The specs for the TPT say it is compatible with b/g/n, since a isn't supported the 5GHz spectrum cannot be supported.

If your router is simultaneous dual-band, meaning, it can transmit a 2.4GHz and a 5GHz network at the same time then you shouldn't have any issues. If the router is only dual-band and not simultaneous then you'll have to fall back on the 2.4GHz spectrum.

Hope this helps.
[Thinkpad Tablet General] sakobatoneko:
Oh, ok. The router was transmitting in 5ghz; changing it to 2.4 worked.Thanks

Checking for update, my phone found the 2.11.605.9 update and downloaded it.

It was in /cache/fumo Just an OTAPkg.zip file, no md5/crc file.

I've uploaded it here -> http://www.multiupload.com/G1C2GE1VM1

This is not rooted or anything, just taken from the DL folder, and uploaded.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] BennyJr:
That cant be it. that file is to small
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Grnlantern79:
It's a small update only 36 MBs I think
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Cadillac Johnson:
a number of people have gotten the update, looks like new radios and maybe a clock app.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] KidJoe:
I wonder if the download didn't complete properly.. The screen on my phone telling me the update is available says its 36.152MB. The downloaded file is only 34.4MB.

I'm rooted with clockwork, so if I accept installing it, I assume it will fail.

EDIT: Windows reports size as being 34.4MB (36.151.017 bytes) and size on disk as 34.4MB (36,151,296 bytes) so what is VZW using?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Cadillac Johnson:
Don't accept if you're rooted of course.

Just have to wait for someone to pull the radios for us rooted folk.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] kurrupt_1:
Yup....need someone to apply root to it.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mike.s:
VZW is using an operating system which knows what a MB is, and reports it accurately (rounded, though), unlike Windows. 36151017 bytes = 36.15 MB = 34.47 MiB.

[Thunderbolt Android Development] orkillakilla:
Does anyone know what Smith.apk is?

Also, this isn't a full ROM. Its only a ROM update, or a patch if you will, so there isn't any way "root" this package. It will just be added to the current base.

Thanks for doing this I will wait patiently for your version. :)
[Thunderbolt Android Development] B3L13V3:
Looking into the update there's only 2 new apks and the radios, 1 named smith that I've never seen before and and updated qxsomething...tried pushing both into system along with odex files and got force closes on people app...I'll also wait for the flashable.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] mike.s:
?? That's wrong. There's much more than that. There are new boot and recovery images. There are a bunch of patch files which get applied. There are a couple of library modules.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Lyondellic:
My suspicion is that the apk named 'Smith' is for Smithmicro, which I have heard is supposed to help with digital management and receiving of OTA's. I suspect that this may be bloat, perhaps even spyware, and have disabled Smithmicro a couple of times in the past without any problems. No basis in fact for my suspicion, so don't jump all over me if I am wrong...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] IvanNCase:
Is this both cdma and lte radios in one?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] KidJoe:
Could it be related to Backup Assistant? Since Verizon and SmithMicro worked on backup assistant together, that is my guess.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] JaydenR:
Installed in HBoot and now my phone keeps shutting down every few seconds.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] KidJoe:
FYI... not the "best" solution, but certainly A SOLUTION if you want to be stock, rooted and running 2.11.605.9...

I was rooted, S-off with patched bootloader.

I had the following instructions in a text file on my hard drive and I know I've used it before for 2.11.605.5.

I can't find the original post/thread to link to it :( so I'll just quote it....

I decided to try this, puting the 2.11.605.9 update in the middle, and IT WORKS...

NOTE: Flashing a FULL RUU is usually destructive anyway, so booting into clockwork and wiping data/cache and dalvik first should not be necessary, but I did it because of the original instructions. Its your choice if you want to do this wipe first or not.

Here are slightly tweaked instructions...

Pre-Req's...

Boot into hBoot and make sure its S-OFF and the "pink" UNLOCKED across the top of your screen. If it is not, I recomend you find and install the Thunderbolt_Patched_hboot.zip before you go any further!!! (becuase this is what worked for me) See -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1186022

Download clockwork -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179386

c4c1d9c5e553fd7b151352551b931369 - (CWR5.0.2.1)PG05IMG.zip

Download SU -> http://androidsu.com/superuser/

Eclair/Froyo/Gingerbread/Honeycomb (2.1 – 3.2)

md5: 55ed532deae220b342f13a2861a24539

su-3.0.5-efgh-signed.zip

Process...

1. Backup your device, and its data however you see fit. This process should be totally destructive (but the uSD card will remain untouched).

2. Copy the 2.11.605.5 RUU zip to the root of your uSD card, and name the file PG05IMG.zip

3. Boot into hBoot and let the RUU flash. When it completes, reboot the phone.

4. Skip through the setup, don't add any accounts, etc.

5. Go Apps -> Settings -> Software Update -> Check New. It should find the update. Select OK to download and install it.

6. When the update is done, the phone will reboot, and you'll likely be prompted with a message about 2.11.605.9 and need to click OK.

7. Let the phone sit/settle for about 60 seconds.

8. Delete the PG05IMG.zip from the root of the uSD card.

9. copy the clockwork zip to the root of the uSD card and name it PG05IMG.ZIP and power off the phone.

10. Boot into hBoot and allow it to flash the recovery. (the phone will reboot when complete.)

11. Delete the PG05IMG.zip from the root of the uSD card and power off the phone.

12. boot into recovery and install the SU.zip

13. Reboot and enjoy.

Now, I was also thinking (after I went through all this) if the update is getting stuck on just the fact that Clockwork is installed rather than a stock recovery, could a NON-DESTRUCTIVE way be... (assuming you are running the patched hboot) replace Clockwork with a stock recovery (like found in this thread -> http://androidforums.com/thunderbol...dios-recoveries-hboot-updated-12-18-11-a.html ), install the OTA, then re-install Clockwork and SU?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jrocker23:
Your Method wouldn't work if you rooted with Revolutionary correct. This is only for people who rooted the adb way?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] KidJoe:
I didn't root using Revolutionary... And I'm not that familiar with it.

If Revolutionary puts a patched hboot on there, then it should work fine. Or if Revolutionary doesn't put patched hboot on there, but you are able to use the one from the thread I linked to, then you'd be fine.

But I'd think the non-destructive way (my last thoughts about putting the stock recovery back on there, take the OTA, then flash Clockwork and SU) should work if you already have the patched HBOOT...
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jrocker23:
ok, im trying it. i used revolutionary and so far so good. getting ready to install SU... will update when done

***UPDATE*** It worked perfect. Im on 2.11.605.9 and rooted. I did the full install not just the recovery. Thank you dude. Awesome find..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] MkVsTheWorld:
KidJoe,

Your steps worked for me too. Thanks! I was stock rooted with Revolutionary on 2.11.605.5 before attempting this. I wondered about restoring the bootloader recovery but I was afraid of bricking my phone. You should make a write-up though for anyone who is looking to do the upgrade.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jrocker23:

[Thunderbolt Android Development] nj12nets:
if I'm rooted s-off fully already do I have to concern myself with the patched hboot file, I think I had to install that when I first rooted.

If that's the case can I just backup and place the downloaded update image on the root of sdcard under PG05IMG.zip and boot into recovery?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] ilogik:
I've updated to the latest radio and now my bluetooth radio won't turn on. I'm running MIUI, anyone else run across this problem?
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jrocker23:
If you are referring to the files in post#41 above, you dont need the patched hboot for this.

you place the image file zip on your memory card and just flash in recovery, you dont need to rename them. you only rename when flashing through bootloader, these files cant flash there, only in recovery..

Tha radios have to be named to PG05IMG and flashed through bootloader
[Thunderbolt Android Development] nj12nets:
Wasn't sure if I could just install via CWM instead of the rename and bootloader. I knew that was a possibility I just didn't know for certain about the regular install zip method in cwm.

I don't think this should erase anything though, just install the updated software to the phone. no factory reset or anything.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] nj12nets:
Update worked as a charm, since my mom already had vz apps installed I chose your deodexed and debloated version. I can always restore from Titanium. Thanks for the upload and the contribution.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Jrocker23:
you can just flash over if you like. The files will not wipe the phone. I suggest doing a cache wipe but you dont have to do a data wipe..
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Fastlivin:
Pardon the dumb question here, as I don't flash ROM's all that frequently:

In essence, I would just need to download the rooted version to my SDcard, enter the bootloader, and flash it, right? Maybe clear the cache and dalvik? Am I missing any steps?

Many thanks in advance.
[Thunderbolt Android Development] Speeddymon:
Is this for FroYo or GB? I saw a post in this thread that someone had to try a bunch of different radios after flashing this on GB to get outbound calling working, so I wanted to make sure beforehand. Didn't see any other posts that indicated which this is for.
