sudo ./emmc_recover --backup b_hboot.img --device /dev/sdX12 is waiting device

and when i try hexdump command i just get new terminal window saying end.

talk about patience lol.

any ideas or pointers
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
If you are still having issues come on irc ;)

Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
[HTC EVO 3D] kitarolivier:
I'am a the same point. it does not show the sdX of the first step. IRC is nice, but not usefull for other users...

Can you help me ?
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
if you dont get the

sdX

line, then that means that something isnt good. Usually its the automount and/or Unity interfering. Thats why we recommend using the live cd provided( which doesnt have Unity, but note that automount still needs to be disabled). Also usb3 ports and usb hubs are causing issues. If you are still having issues, try with another cable and another usb port. If it still persists then post here detailed info about your condition( and make sure you include how you bricked it step by step ;) )

good luck
[HTC EVO 3D] kitarolivier:
Thank you for your answer.

As I'm not a unix user, I followed your link for the livecd, and booted the computer with this one. I also disabled the automount (unchecked 2 options, and checked a third one) as described in a link found somewhere in the thread.

I connected the device without battery/sdcard/sim card, directly on the computer (without hub) that has standard usb2 ports (not usb3).

The only thing I'm not sure is the unity, but I suppose the given link in the first post is the good version.

now I'm letting it charge for the night on a wall charger, because I've seen somewhere that if sdX does not appear, it can be because the device is not bricked but battery low (I starterd the update at 87% battery), and someone succeeded this way, also bricked with the 'fastboot oem write... 3' command.

Also, please note that I'm using the GSM version, NOT the CDMA.

Thank you for reading and helping.

dexter93 you saved my phone brother!!! tell me where you live at i am going to buy you drinks till you are drunk! :D! thank you thank you!!!

Big human thank you!

Для русскоязычных добавлю свои наблюдения.Обязательно сделать вот это сразу после загрузки Ubuntu "Unity and automount are known to cause issues. We recommend getting rid of both" .В 41 посте ссылка на инструкцию.Я пока дошел до этого потратил полночи .

В п.9 hexdump методом тыка нашел картинку как в инструкции все-таки - не силен в нем.

С ноутбука долго мучался и уже отчаялся - waiting device и висит.

Подключил к другому компу и все сработало мгновенно!

Так,что работает эта штука!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

УРА!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From my experience.

Without fall do here is this right after loading Ubuntu "Unity and automount are known to cause issues. We recommend getting rid of both" .В 41 posts reference to instruction.I while has understood before this has spent the midnight.

In p.9 hexdump has accidentally found the picture as in instructions even so - not strong in him.

With portable computer long tried and already despaired - "waiting device" and hungs.

Has Connected to the other desk and all have operated instant!

So that works this piece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excuse me for my english!

I tried to find my sdX, but terminal shows only smth like:

"bricked phone is on

you should use emmc_...."((

anybody knows what to do with this?
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
on 90% of the times, the issue is automount. If you are having still trouble, after trying this , try to use this liveCD, try different ports and different usb cables. Also make sure that there is nothing else connected to the pc.
[HTC EVO 3D] enrique001:
well I tell you that I'm stuck Download the program gives me the end of the link in the ubuntun, decompressed it in the beginning, disarmament will remove all the phone memory and other things, connect to the PC where I do not say anything if you connected or not while in windows to connect QHSUSB_DLOAD I get after I write this in the terminal. / brickdetect.sh but I get nothing fails maybe something I have to install something before the truth or not and I manage very well with linux is something I never utilize. maybe a more detailed explanation would help me more or maybe some video if any.
[HTC EVO 3D] zoukos12:
can i use this method while i am s-off. i just bricked my device after installing new kernel
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
how did you brick it?

do you have access to hboot?
[HTC EVO 3D] zoukos12:
no i have no acces to hboot. i flashed a new kernel. never rebooted after i flashed the kernel.
[HTC EVO 3D] despotovski01:
What was your battery level when you flashed the kernel?
[HTC EVO 3D] zoukos12:
55% baterry level
[HTC EVO 3D] enrique001:
well I tell you that when I put the. / brickdetect.sh I get this:

Searching for bricked device ...

The bricked device is on

Use the Above node to Perform Operations emmc_recover using the tool

put it after I realized I had not connected the phone and then connect it follows me out the same ...

that's what I'm doing wrong or what I have to do?
[HTC EVO 3D] zoukos12:
i get the same message

[HTC EVO 3D] enrique001:
I did not probe anything because the strange thing is that for more than the phone is not connected anyway, I say the same for that reason try anything and preferred not to ask those who know more

i try all ways but cant take number what is wrong ?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vladimyr:
i think you have to get your version from some RUU or OTA :cowboy:
[HTC EVO 3D] Vladimyr:
got the brick from my friend. don't know the detailed synopsis,

but he said he was trying to install ics ota on unofficial device

(it has been probably unlocked before).

when i attach usb cable or battery, red led is turning on, that's all.

when i run brickdetect.sh, it says 'Device can't be detected'.

tried ubuntu 12.04 as well as livecd from op. automount disabled.

when i attach device to usb, the following strings added to dmesg:

[ 3263.524018] usb 2-2: new high-speed USB device number 9 using ehci_hcd
[ 3263.658426] qcserial 2-2:1.0: Qualcomm USB modem converter detected
[ 3263.658506] usb 2-2: Qualcomm USB modem converter now attached to ttyUSB0

while windows says:

QHSUSB_DLOAD

anybody have an idea? :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] hamid reza:
1+ in this condition
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
honestly, I cant tell you what to do when you "probably" know the condition of the device. give me specific info and detailed history and I might be able to.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vladimyr:
i told you all i know... the problem is the friend

doesn't know himself what was the condition of

the phone before ota update attempt :cowboy:

probably, hamid reza can clarify, if it has 'the same'?
[HTC EVO 3D] emutnyeh:
well first this is my first time i;m on HTC evo 3d and sorry for my bad in english

well i think my friend device is bricked...coz the phone can't turning on and can't show any kind of sign when the device on charge...usually there's a led sign right? in this case it didn't show up..so i think it's bricked..

i ask a several question about what he do on that phone..

1. he Unroot it..i don't know it S-on or S-off (sorry he almost forget everything...) it work (he explain about Superuser is work)

2. after that he tried to change X.11 to become X.7 something like that...downgrade it maybe it called but he don't know anything about that and it failed coz that he know if he want to installed cosRom he must do that.

3. he said after that he installed CWM, and it;s work...and he directly instal cosRom (he said a King cobra Rom) and he said about trying leedroid rom next he tried king cobra ICS, back to leedroid again...too but it ended ..

4. rom didn't end well too coz it wifi issues can;t turning on and he came back to cobra again...

5. and he slept when his HTC flash and it.s booting up at the first (<--- its the one that he feel chagrined :laugh:)

6. and when he woke up the phone is unWork anymore and he on depressed now :D

so if i try unbricked it...it;s in my case i can this method??

it will be more asking about it later,,,thx
[HTC EVO 3D] dryogeshd:
I bricked my device by writing the secureflag, Using this live cd, tried in three different computers and with different cables, but my device never gets detected by the script, it always says can not detect the device, check the connections.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[HTC EVO 3D] Flashmaniac:
[OT]

Sweet jesus... you have a whole thread of how to root / soff and revert back to original status for warranty and did that?

[/OT]
[HTC EVO 3D] dryogeshd:
Dude I didn't do it on purpose, Was distracted due to the kind of work I do, So wrote the secure flag without relocking the bootloader and screwed it up, Its completely gone now. Will be giving it to HTC to repair it, hopefully they won't charge me as I am still supposed to be having warranty.
[HTC EVO 3D] Flashmaniac:
Has nothing to do with unlocked bootloader. It's the unsigned Hboot that causes that issue not the htcdev unlock.
[HTC EVO 3D] dryogeshd:
That's right.. But I had the signed Hboot--(Ran the RUU)...
[HTC EVO 3D] Flashmaniac:
that's something I never heard about b4 in which I don't even believe.

How comes that you have had unlocked bootloader + s-off?
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
You might want to try disabling automount and trying again. Also, some info on how exactly you bricked it and what you did before that, would help ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] dryogeshd:
I had unlocked it HTC dev way, S-off by revolutionary, actually earlier I did write the secureflag, 4 times and S-Offed (Each time with different H-boot versions) to test it after flashing the RUU. I was unlucky this time.

---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

I did all that disabling automount thing and all....

Here is exactly what I had done with my device till date.

1. Unlocked HTCdev way.

2. Flashed innumerable number of GB roms with custom kernels and all that ****.

3. S-off revolutionary way.

4. Reverted back to S-on 4 times by writing the secureflag and again S-offed revolutionary way.

5. Updated to the latest releases of radio as and when they were released (I must have done it at least 10 radio updates and downgrades)

6. Flashed many ICS sense 3.6 and sense 4 roms.

7. Just wanted to try out the official OTA for India so flashed a India specific rom(official-extracted it from the RUU and flashed it in bootloader).

8. Ran the RUU.

9. Downloaded the official OTA -- It refused to install.

10. At this stage I had 1.49.009 H-boot, and the original radio. Then I wrote the secureflag and BAM--- device gone (Battery level was 83%).

I used the live cd, and linux installed on my system as well, disabled the automount, but to no avail-- The script just refused to detect my device-- It just keeps saying device can't be detected, check connections.

One good thing is... HTC guys have taken the device for repair and they won't be charging me for it. (The guy was telling me, you should not update to the OTA updates).
[HTC EVO 3D] rule1985:
Same problem

My phone is also bricked. Tried everything but de ./brickdetect.sh won't find a bricked device.

If I type LSUSB in linux it doesn't find the device, because I had automount disabled, but after brickdetect, I can see my phone

on USB but ./brickdetect.sh sais it can't find a bricked device.

any help please?

pull usb+ battery out, leave it for some mins, put back in, try again. If it fails, come on irc

it's pretty easy actually

Problems

first pull out battery and other stuff. then connect my phone with usb cable. on ubuntu in section accessories open terminal. in terminal write like on video

sudo su

chmod +x brickdetect.sh emmc_recover

./brickdetect.sh unplug usb and pluged in, after that press enter and there write the bricked device is on

sdb

use the above node to perform operations using the emmc_recover tool

after that copied this sudo ./emmc_recover --backup b_hboot.img --device /dev/sdX12 and past it to terminal, then change sdx to adb then press enter and terminal said this ./emmc_recover: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Also, when pluged usb, ubuntu open phone folder, then close this folder and said unable to mount devlog
[HTC EVO 3D] dexter93:
Please use the appropriate version of the package. That means that you are using 64bit Ubuntu with the 32bit tools or vice versa.

Also, since the detect script said "sdb" , substitute "sdX" with that, and not "adb"

Hi , im another one whos bitting the brick dust, first of all thanks to dexter93 for being so patient with us, next my issue.

I got my device (EVO 3D GSM ) bricked trying to load a new ROM on it, now is with the QHUSB_DLOAD message when i connect on windows.

I´ve tried to make the unbricking process using the lastest ubuntu version running it directly from an USB Drive since my netbook doesn't have a disc reader, everything goes well till the part when the device has to be detected,

chmod +x brickdetect.sh emmc_recover

./brickdetect.sh

I got the no detection and check connection message, so There is some secure way to know if i can make detect the device? , I've tried several times just like the video shows but got nothing. Please help and give me some answer. There is a hope for me ??? :( or should i just quit?

Thanks for any help

Editing: I was thinking.... if windows recognize the phone why linux shouldn't?? so just like the brickdetect shell just checking direct in the /dev folder to search for other changes ( maybe automount needed for this ), or .... just guessing the letter of the drive to make the next steps should work , i don't know ....

Editing 2: i just tried on another pc this time running from a disc, with the very same results, also tried to guess the drive unit sda , sdb, sdc, etc, got no response at all, so i'll try to buying another cables... then i don't know..

Hello,thanks for this great guide, I got bricked trying to S-ON before flashing the RUU with the writeflag command,I followed the guide step by step, I unbricked the device but now I am stuck in "LOCKED" "Security Warning" HBOOT 1.49.0007 and I cannot flash anything. Is says it is S-ON

Tried flashing by (renaming rom.zip to PG86IMG.zip) 2 RUUs for Europe, ICS and GB but I get "CID incorrect! Update Fail!" . I triple checked my CID (have never changed it) it is HTC_N34 (greece) and it is included in the android-info.txt.

When I run "fastboot devices" it gives me my device.Tried pushing recovery.img from rom.zip but I get error:cannot load recovery.img even though the recovery.img is in the same folder as fastboot.exe

Sorry for the lengthty post, I am a bit desperate,can you please help?
