i was running fission rc1 on my d2g, used frm to download stock d2g deodexed blah blsh, flashed it, stuck on motorola m screen. cant get it to boot to bootstrap recovery for ****. only regular recovery...i could cry

edit: omg im gonna throw up. please tell me theres something i can do.

EDIT: ok...so if it is bricked and i have the $1.99 or $2.99 insurance, whatever....can i get it replaced...and if not, what if hypothetically speaking...it was smashed by a car...could i then get it replaced?
[Droid 2 General] Androdamas:
I am no expert, but lets try this, start the phone and as soon as the M appears, immediately pull the battery, and the put back in and start the phone. Lets see if the phone goes into ClockworkMod, and if it does, you can do a restore. Let me know how you make out.

MICP1480
[Droid 2 General] botnryan:
no luck dude. thanks tho

EDIT: just got off the phone with verizon, theyre sending me a new one. wasnt hard at all, i played dumb and acted like bootloader mode was a whole new world to me, she had me wipe the data and reboot, of course i had already done that to no avail so of course it didnt work this time either, she put me on hold and talked to a tech and then came back and said they'd send out a new one.
[Droid 2 General] miketoasty:
They will check your phone to make sure there is no ROM's and that it is not rooted as that voids the warranty.
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
This just means moto needs to release the sbf for the D2G so we can fix them instead of moto/verizon getting a bunch of returned devices.
[Droid 2 General] botnryan:
really? and how will they know if its all messed up and wont even boot? plus i did a data and cache wipe of the phone thru the regular recovery, will that not kinda wipe away anything incriminating? Not to mention the last rom i flashed was the stock d2g rom, just deodexed and such
[Droid 2 General] leobg:
When you flash a custom ROM or root the phone, evidences remain in /system which survives data wipe.

It is another question how would they see that if phone is not booting.

If you sent it in already and you do not receive a nasty 600 dollar invoice in the following days/billing cycle stating you have voided the warranty, then they really do not check.

I guess all they do is to flash the oh-so-desired-by-everyone stock SBF and sell it as refurb or give it as replacement phone.
[Droid 2 General] botnryan:
i havent sent it in yet as ill be recieving the replacement tomorrow...any ideas on how to prevent this? could a good strong magnet wipe the memory completely?
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
without the sbf to get back in there isn't really much you can do. The stuff is on there and you don't have a way to get back in.

try to get into recovery by:

pulling battery (or powering down phone)

while completely off plug in to wall via charging cable

turn on phone while connected to power (if you get the battery screen press power again)

you should hopefully be in recovery (not sure if this method works on D2 G but it does wonders for the D2 but it's worth a try.)

unless you really flashed crazy and messed up recovery theoretically bootstrap should be there unless completely wiped it.
[Droid 2 General] botnryan:
dude i tried that with both usb and wall charger, no luck either way, i flashed stock d2g deodexed blah blah rom over fission rc1 and this happend. totally blows my mind. got my replacement today, super glad to be back away from the eris lol
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
Just checking I didn't see you tried that specifically glad you got your replacement now you know to be very careful as the sbf isn't out yet.
[Droid 2 General] botnryan:
sorry if that last post came off harsh lol, didnt mean it to, read it again and was like geez dude chill (at myself). So im really hoping they dont charge my ass for this, but i dont see how theyre going to know. if you flash an sbf, does it unroot it? Because, if thats what they do to phones like mine, then they wont know i had it rooted/rom'd right?
[Droid 2 General] newk8600:
Yeah SBF put's it back to stock from factory software. Unless they have another way of getting in and see what was in there they won't know much unless after they SBF they can pull the residual data in data or cache but I don't think they will go to that extent only if D2 G's start dropping like flies.

If they would just release the SBF for us we could have fixed your phone in 15 minutes and it wouldn't have cost them anything at all.
[Droid 2 General] botnryan:
alrights, thanks man. i feel they probably wont be able to find anything out but im still going to use up my 10 day period i have to send the phone in just in case the sbf is magically released in that time period.
[Droid X General] charmcitybully:
Not a noob by any means but can't lie I'm stuck. I was hoping to upgrade to the newest leak but I had to sbf back, and I'm talking waaaay back to .15. So do I need to upgrade to .20 the .32 and so forth? if so can some tell me yes or no. I've had to sbf at least 2 twice and i'm getting frustrated so before I blow my up I would like to reach to Android Nation for help.

After updating to VEGAn Beta 2, I decided to create some Gingerbread style icons for Launcher Pro and thought I would share them here. I only made a few (for the apps) I use but would be willing to take some suggestions to create more.

These are not official icons at all (except for the browser icon). Just ones to tide me over until the official ones become available.

I am currently putting together an app that will change your lockscreen to vanilla, puzzle (Samsung-like), thin sheet (acer-ish), big slider (miui-type) or bar slider (sense-ed).

This app will allow music controls from default music player along with poweramp and doubletwist. There will also be weather ,displayed along with battery %. Lastly there will be icons for sms, missed calls, and gmail thay show unread/missed count and can be slide up at any time to view the associated application.

I am working on this now, but want to see if there is a demand for this??

All,

The unrevoked home page shows a HTC hero. When the image is clicked, it takes you to a page where you can download unrevoked and forever. I did this yesterday on my EVO and it worked like a charm!

Today, I would like to do this to my wife's Hero. The concern I have is that list of supported devices (from the forever page) does not list the Hero. My guess is that it will work (why else would they have the Hero image on the home page), but I wanted to check before doing anything which could brick the phone.

So, simple question: Can unrevoked and forever be used on a Sprint HTC Hero 2.1?

I'm pretty sure you can't use someone else backup. I assume you did not backup and now can't flash a new rom. Look out up but believe your best option is to adb push amon recovery, rename it PC36IMG and flash it through bootloader. Then reboot into recovery and flash new rom.

Of course I cant find it now, I read of the new market that was ripped from some device, as of now I dont remember.
