ah thats a shame. the only other thing that comes to mind is seeing one or two threads with teh same problem where the poster simply tried again and again with the various versions of the (correct!) stock rom, and suddenly it flashed, and once teh radio was replaced it all worked again. I would have thought though that if it were going to do that, the freezer trick would also have worked.

I'd definitely try the three released stock tmous roms, , 2.10, 2.13 and 3.14, anbd perhaps some of the lower ones, too, , , see the 't mobile test & stock roms' thread in the tmous section DO NOT flash the first few, since the first one will brick it, and the next two or three have manufacturing spls, which can prove dificult to remove. (Not that you have anything to lose.)

flash from sd card., no point messing with the .exe, , more likely to work from sd card.

Heres a thought, , , forget the internal nand completely, , set up an ext4 partition, and then using sd card based recovery, flash an android rom using nativeSD. So long as magldr can be succesfully pointed at an sd card folder, you needn't use teh nand at all.
[HD2 General] br0adband:
Dammit, no luck with any SD or NativeSD either. It simply won't ever get past the GO GO GO! event, no matter what I do. Tried several different recoveries (accessed from MAGLDR) and every time they just stick at GO GO GO! and never do anything past that. It DOES note the SD card is there, MAGLDR can access it to load the kernel, but it always ends up stuck at GO GO GO! and that's that. I was thinking if I could just get some type of recovery loaded (TWRP, CWM, I don't care) then perhaps I could do something more but, it's just a NO GO GO GO! :P

I did find that leodiag.nbh thing and gave that a shot, the diagnostic portion won't start because of the radio timing out (go figure, with the bad radio flash) so that won't even run, and the reset function doesn't either as it only sees the microSD card and still won't work.

It's like I feel like I'm missing one single thing that could turn it all around but, I'm tired of messing with it. Found the suggestion to hold in the reset button (mine is white, never seen a yellow or red one so...) and then turn the power on but it never does a reboot no matter how long I wait with the reset button still depressed.

Guess it's just not gonna happen this time... :(
[HD2 General] samsamuel:
yea unfortunately that's very often the way these turn out. the radio is blocking flashes from happening, and android from loading.

Do make sure you've given the freezer trick a good chance before you give up, i've read threads where the flash suddenly took after several attempts, (however in all fairness, if the freezer trick does help, it is usually indicative of hardware overheating problems anyway)
[HD2 General] br0adband:
Well, against my better judgment but having enough experience (read: decades) with consumer electronics I figure the freezer thing - since it does actually work with hard drives in some situations - couldn't hurt.

Sure enough, after only about 2 minutes in the freezer (laying on some frozen food) I gave the SD update a shot and sure enough it finished, and after taking it out of the freezer a few minutes later, it booted into Windows Mobile just fine but, of course, then comes the letdown.

It froze up (not literally in terms of temperature), rebooted, then rebooted again before it got back into Windows Mobile, then on the 3rd reboot it just stopped and was stuck at the "stick together" screen where it simply won't get past.

So, obviously this one is suffering from the overheating issue, and I don't have access to an SMD oven or a proper heat gun (not that I'm going to go that far to revive it), so it's on craigslist for sale as-is presently. Funny thing is I've had 23 people respond for it since I know and they know and we here at XDA know all about how popular the HD2 is, even one like this one with potential good parts for use in some other one. :D

Let's hope someone actually shows up with cash, could use it for bills.

Thanks for the information, sam.

[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] penfold1992:
i dont know why but when i take photos on mimicry on my phone it seems to crop out a part of the image, it doesnt take an image that fills the whole of the desire Z screen but instead takes a picture with two black bars either side of the image.

is there a reason why this happens?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shared_ptr:
The screen resolution of Desire Z is 800x480, which is the aspect ratio of 5:3. You are probably taking pictures with aspect ratio 4:3. If you want to display a (whole) image with aspect ratio 4:3 without stretching you have to display black bars on sides.

Try to change the camera resolutions to “4MP(W)”. There are two “4MP(W)” settings, one of them has the aspect ratio of 5:3.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keplenk:
Hey guys,

Last night, I unlocked, rooted (with perm cust recovery - TWRP) my N7 which was successful.

I installed custom ROMS and it was really doing great, until I made a mistake.

In TWRP, I accidentally formatted SYSTEM without having a ROM zip file to flash in the internal storage (/sdcard).

I restarted and it was just sitting in the google splashscreen (with unlock icon) - no matter how to I try to reboot it it was just going stuck there. I manged to make it boot to TWRP (press volume keys + power) again and tried to PUSH a rom using adb command line.

When I pushed a ROM file (Cookie's and Cream 1.0) as soon as I pressed enter, it looks like it is doing the push. But I've been waiting for 45 mins and it was still on the same progress, so I had to unplug it while it was doing that in the command line.

When I restarted, I tried to go to TWRP again but I can't anymore no matter what I do. So I had no choice but to reboot to bootloader instead.

This time I used the tools (nexus toolkit 1.5.3 (GUI) and the other version (2.0) in XDA - command line looking).

On both instances on both tools, when it is pushing - it just gets stuck with a blinkng cursor and it does not continue to the next step. As if the file is not being pushed.

There was also a point that when I go to recovery (i think it was stock), the android picture had a red triangle with exclamation point.

Anyway, I managed to make it work by manually by doing the guide [GUIDE] Flashing a Factory Image with fastboot / return to stock

Again, when i was doing it, when it is sending the image file to the N7 it was just stuck with a flashing cursor. I waited for 30 mins and when I rebooted, it WORKED - booted to N7 screen etc .. all good.

But I was worried why about that pushing error - maybe my Nand flash got borked like bad sectors etc? Is there a way for me to check if my flash storage is still good?

TL;DR

I messed up flashing a custom ROM on my N7 and accidentally formatted system. I managed to recover using recover to stock using fastboot and it worked.

Now, when I'm pushing files and it is big, it just gets stuck, either in recovery or when it is booted up.

Is there a way for me to check if I made badsectors or borked my internal flash storage?

So far everything looks fine but I just want to make sure since I still have 20 days to return it.

Thanks!

EDIT: When pushing from Recovery it says "error: protocol fault (no status)"
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbbooga:
My computer did that in windows, but switching to Linux and it all worked fine for me
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keplenk:
Thanks. Good thing I still have my Arch Linux box still up and running.

So is this a known issue?

Right now, I did it again and it worked.

It is like 80% chance it will get stuck while pushing thru adb and 20% it will just work successfully.

Just right now, I just did restore it using the tools. I didn't work for at least 5 times. The 6th time it worked. (Windows 64 bit)

:(

I'm going to try linux and see if it will be better.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keplenk:
UPDATE:

It looks like it could be adb drivers in Windows.

OS X works fine. I haven't tried with Linux.

But is there a software to check if Flash storage has bad blocks?

Thanks!

Z4root is not working for me also this is because karbonn has updated the software on the device so those who have bought the phone earlier are able to root the phone with z4root but those who bought the phone with updated software arent.

Nothing really, just that you can get two with a charger of other brands on Amazon for less than $20.

I believe that batteries are very much an item that you get what you pay for. In this case it looks like you will pay a little more to get NFC. I would find it hard to pass up an OEM battery for only $5 more especially when tolerances for an off brand battery would likely lead to a 2200 mAh battery performing worse that the OEM 2100mAh

I tried installed NC-MROM through recovery but when i selected anything with power it just went to a screen that was blank so I did it through ROM manager. NC rebooted and I used RM to install CWM again (it wasn't seeing it for some reason) and then tried to flash the gapps pack but every reboot it said it couldn't find the path to the file. So I tried downloading a new ROM through CWM but when I flashed it same thing. So I figured maybe it was the version of CWM so I flashed a different one, same thing. I think I tried it once more, picking 3.0.0 (it was whatever was the top one in the list). Tried rebooting into recovery to backup rom through RM, but now the phone is stuck on the green cyanogen screen saying loading with 3 dots. I've tried puttting unooter on a sd or even the B&N 1.42 image but i can't seem to get it to read the card. I tried getting to the device through ADB on my laptop but it isnt seeing it either. Did I turn it into a paper weight or is there any hope of getting it back working?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
No, not a paper weight, that is almost impossible. Go to my tips thread linked in my signature and look at items A8, A9, A10, A11, A12 and A15. One of those should help you get out of your problem.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thejrcrafter2:
It will work somehow!

well, since it turned on, it will work. if it will not even turn on, there is almost no hope.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Not necessarily true about not turning on. If you wipe your boot partition and try to boot without a bootable SD in the slot, the unit will not turn on. To get it to turn on, insert a bootable SD in the slot and if the battery is charged, it should turn on.

But you are right about if it turns on, there is a very good chance it can be resurrected.
