I was updating my inspire 4g from the HTC's update sense 3.0. I got it directly from their site. My micro-usb cable apparently wiggled loose during the "Installing Bootloader" phase of the installation. Now my phone will turn on after about 20 minutes. It does not respond to me pressing the power button and I can not get it into recovery mode. It hangs at either a Black HTC screen or a White HTC screen. It's different each time it boots. When it boots into the white HTC screen it vibrates for a good 5 minutes then eventually boots up. My phone is not rooted. Is there anything that I can do to fix this?

EDIT: I just booted into recovery after holding the volume down and power button for like 5 minutes. Although, my volume and power buttons do not work in recovery mode :/
[HTC Inspire 4G] uNdea:
fix

I've same problem here

I'm searching for fix about 5-6 hours

If your phone boots up, it's more easy to fix it.

All you need now is to turn you phone fully to android desktop and follow this thread

tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=188

(I'm new here, i can't use "insert link" option, copy and paste link in browser)

or try this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1875134&page=2

Mine even doesn't boot up after 2 hours :(

Takes up to 20 minutes to enter in hboot, then up to 40 minutes to enter in fastboot

and then another 40 minute for fastboot usb

But still adb doesn't recognize device :/

Any help would be greatly appreciated

It sucks man! but I have finally booted my phone this morning. In order for my phone to boot it must be plugged into my computer for some reason?

is there a way to fix the bootloader while the phone is on and plugged into the pc? Or is there a way to boot into recovery without turning the phone off? BTW my device is not rooted.

EDIT: I attempted to redo the AT&T update and it failed because it took to long for my device to boot. So now, I'm attempting to root it again threw Ace Advanced Hack Kit. I know that this kit is no longer supported but I did use it in the past and it worked flawlessly. So now, AAHK is waiting for my device to boot. AAHK aparently doesnt care how long it takes so I guess thats a plus. My phone will eventually turn on. I'll post the results when/if it finishes

EDIT 2: AAHK aparently did not work. AAHK still says waiting for device after the device booted normally.

If you try to run a RUU your device will probably end up bricked. You need to fix that using this:

http://tau.shadowchild.nl/attn1/?p=188

Any other method might leave you with a dead $200 device.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bananagranola:
AAHK is not only not supported. The server hosting the files it needs has been taken down.

In any case, you both sound like you have messed bootloaders. In the link in my signature, post #7 has a PDF guide that has, among other things, instructions on how to fix that. Make sure you read carefully.

How to fix Corrupted bootloader with RUU

I've fixed my bootloader with RUU :)

It was S-ON, so i went to RUU and it worked flawlessly.

AAHK wasn't recognized phone, even when it was connected with Fastboot USB.

I corrupted bootloader when i was trying to manually downgrade from 2.3.5 (Because AAHK don't worked, file server was down)

Phone was unable to boot up (I've waited about 2 hours and it was still stuck on htc logo)

so was adb, when in Device Manager "my htc" was shown, command "adb devices" had no result

I'll tell my way (Full process takes about 3-4 hours, cross your fingers and drink some coffee, let's go..) :

I'm not developer. I tried and fixed my device with this, because other known methods don't worked for me. So read carefully every step and use it at own risk!

First, you need to remove sd card to skip PD98IMG check and make entire process faster

1) remove sd card

2) remove battery (make sure it's charged at least 50-60%)

3) insert battery and go to hboot screen (Press volume down and Power button same time, be patient and keep holding buttons, it will take about 5-10 minutes to show up hboot)

4) Wait until hboot loads fully (takes about 10-20 minute) and when you can go down or up with volume buttons, go to Fastboot

5) Wait there to load fastboot (10-20 minutes or little more) and then connect USB cable

6) Wait there for 15-30 minutes, untill PC recognizes device (Go to Device Manager and check it out if there's "Android USB devices" and "my htc" are shown) for me, it was connected and disconnected 2-3 times, Windows said to check the device and etc, but at least it was shown correctly

7) Make sure that hboot says "Fastboot USB" and run the RUU (I'm new here and can't use "insert link" function, so paste this link in browser and download, --> 4shared.com/file/XORxHMZx/RUU_Ace_Gingerbread_S_Cingular.html )

8) RUU would detect device this time and ask to update system image or radio or hboot (I don't remember what it was exactly) to 2.x.x..,

accept and click next, It would say that device will be rebooted into recovery (black screen with HTC logo)

9) Wait till the device is fully loaded in recovery mode (about 20-30 minutes, check if it's available in Device Manager again)

in 10 minutes RUU would say device isn't recongized or something like that and exit. Don't worry about it

10) When device is recongized in device manager, run the RUU again. It will ask to update to 2.x.x.., like it asked in step 8, click next. This time it wouldn't reboot, because you're already in recovery mode. It will start the update process. Be patient, it would take about 2-3 hours to fully restore. Don't think that it's stuck and don't cancel process, just wait..

Yeaaah, take deep breathe, you have done it ;)

When it finishes, phone would restart and boot up normally with new hboot, it would be android 2.3.3, so you can run AAHK and root&unlock your device without problems :cowboy:

( Sorry for my English )
[HTC Inspire 4G] 235tylerlee:
Well, thank you guys. I'm in the process of reading everything. I messed my bootloader up by updating my phone btw not trying to root it. BUT thank you guys for the links. I'll post back with my results after I finish doing everything that the articles insist that I try.
[HTC Inspire 4G] 235tylerlee:
Your english is pretty good

BUT what you suggested is almost exactly what the above said link suggested. only he did not inform you about the Device manager things.

Thanks for the update
[HTC Inspire 4G] uNdea:
I don't know, when i researched i didn't find bootloader fix with RUU, everyone warned about brick, so i was little confused when tried that.

It was my last hope to fix, because PD98IMG.zip way doesn't worked for me, neither "boot up and ADB" method. Some thread was about making goldcard and then flashing hboot like pd98img, but i hadn't goldcard. Also, i had S-ON and i think there was no way for S-Off :confused:

Anyway, thanks to xda and google :good:

Hope this would help you too ))
[HTC Inspire 4G] 235tylerlee:
I have attempted what this PDF guide has insisted that I do and I get an error. The cmd prompt says the following

Hi Gurus

Ive managed to get xdarit to put the wallaby patch on an SD and it works when put it in the XDA.

However once i get into the 5.17 with patched Wallaby then remove and format the SD on the PC and write ppc2003 to the SD, and then put the SD back in the XDA and tell it to flash the phone it stops with "Diagnostics" showing at the bottom.

Soft reset and my previous OS is still ok. Ive tried loading the wallaby patch and ppc2003 rom at the same time on the SD and that finishes properly in XDArit but it wont even get into bootloader when i try and use it like that.

Im running SE and RS 4.21 on a 64MB XDA.. any clues?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Peter Poelman:
Could you explain in greater detail what you did? The "format the SD on the PC and write ppc2003 to the SD" part is unclear, and might be your problem. "Format" as in "wrote with XDArit", or format as in "formatting under Windows". The latter is wrong.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] ArcticCat:
I faced the same problem here is the solution

Look what you should do:

write the Wallaby-patched-tool.nb2 using the old xdarit and be sure to select Pre-5.17 before writing to your SD card

insert your card into your xda and boot into the wallaby boot loader and once you have the OK, press the "Action" key. at this point you should reach the patched menu of wallaby boot loader.

Remove your sd-card, re-write to it the PPC2003PE.nb1 file but this time make sure to select At least 5.17 bootloader, the re-insert it into your xda and select Restore

It should work fine

Hope this helps

Regards
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] hilton69:
thanks ArcticCat

You were right!

All done now!

sorry Greg i made my post in the wrong topic so i wrote another one in the correct. i didn't do it for bad.

for start, i want SimUnlock my phone but i have the problem that in service menu there are no available tries to make.

do you know what actions i must do to unlock it finally?

as a new in android i want to ask you some other things...

if i made sim_unlock now and later i decide to make my mobile phone upgrade to jelly 4.1. it will be locked again?

if i unlock my boot-loader then i have to unlock it again?

as an ex-user of iphone i had these problems...

thank's for the understand :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
I don't know about SIM unlock as its not something we do on xda. You need to do a Google search and find a paid for service.

As for what happens after you SIM unlock, as far as I am aware SIM unlocking its a permanent process and nothing will change it

So my Nexus refuse to turn on, plug in and nothing. Naturally i followed all troubleshoot steps on this forum with no success. All i get is - red LED blink once when i try any fastboot, bootloader options. Screen is still black.I even tried unplugging the battery trick and no go.

I'm about to RMA it with google - My questions is that - Will google charge me full price if its unlocked bootloader and custom rom?

Thanks!

Just so everyone is aware, i know this may be a pointless thread but i just want people to know that Asus released a new version of their unlocking apk tool on their website. This version is for 4.2 only.

[Transformer TF300T General] elesbb:
No just posted for people like Samsung.Galaxy.S3 who need to unlock their bootloader. Also posted because I feel like partition mapping has changed resulting in the failure on recovery. Also, TWRP believes the kernel just needs to be upgraded. One Asus releases 4.2 kernel source then I'm going to update and test TWRP builds.

It should. You're just not going to be able to root until the newer recovery is released. And I cannot live without root lol.

Nothing. Don't do anything yet. We need a newer recovery to support the 4.2 update. Until then, nobody can root. So just hold tight ^-^

Red triangle

Hi, I downloaded the Firmware from the asus website for my tf300t (ww version). I need to manually update it to 4.2 because my bootloader is unlocked. I'm with a stock rom and recovery.

I extracted it to the root of my internal memory and tried to update it (I turned off the device, pressed power+volume down and selected the first option).

It starts to update but after about 1 second the android with red triangle appears.

I'm doing it right or not? I'm sure that the firmware that I downloaded is the right one.

Thanks
[Transformer TF300T General] aerdely:
U sure its updating or just entering rck recovery. After putting the zip on root of sd or internal sd just reboot and after start up a triangle should apper in the notification bar then select the drop down menu and select it. In some cases people have had to rename the extracted update file. If us the name it to US_epad-user-10.6.1.8.zip if ww the capital WW where the US is. Not sure if everyone had to but if doesn't see it one way then try renaming it.
[Transformer TF300T General] lucaurso:
Ahh ok I were wrong! I unzipped the file and entered in the rck recovery! Tonight I'll try as you said.

Double check: I'll not loose all my data right? It will be a normal update like if my bootloader was locked?

If you remove the SIM and restart the phone it works correctly now, connect and disconnect smoothly. My phone is locked to vodafone and not unlocked with the Unlock Galaxy

Good news everyone Microsoft is enabling Flash by default in Internet Explorer 10 starting March 12th part of the patch Tuesday updates

[Microsoft Surface] Dane Reynolds:
Yay, now I can enjoy the internet just a little bit more!
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
Yeah, long overdue on their part.

For people who would still like to use Flash on a whitelist (there are definitely some of us), there are some options built into IE:

1. Use "ActiveX Filtering". It's under Tools -> Safety. It will put a little blue circle in the URL bar of a site with blocked ActiveX (not just Flash; any ActiveX) and you can click the circle to turn off the filter for that site.

2. Use the ActiveX plugin's own whitelist. Go to the Add-On Manager (Tools -> "Manage add-ons") and then double-click on "Shockwave Flash Object". Hit "Remove all sites" and then OK and exit the manager. Now, any site that requires Flash will pop up a Information Bar request for it (down at the bottom, like a file download request although without the attention-grabbing color shift) which you can approve or deny. Approving the site will add it to the whitelist in the add-on manager. This can be done on a per-plugin basis.

These methods can be combined, if you want. It's also possible to block the most common source of Flash (advertisements) using IE's built-in "Tracking Protection" feature combined with either a well-built homemade list, or using one of the official lists (EasyList, the same folks who maintain the AdBlock Pro list of that name, have one for IE). As with ActiveX Filtering, you can see when Tracking Protection is blocking something because the little blue cross-out circle appears, and you can turn it off for that site by clicking on the circle an approving the site.
