Ok so I think I've bricked my Nexus One. Everything was working perfect until I re-rooted it (to have SetCPU to work). I am now stuck at the loading animation screen (Google Nexus One "X"). It just keeps going and going and going. I've even tried loading my Nandroid backup and still does the same and won't work. Also I've wiped to factory default settings and tried to reinstall Modaco's 1.3 rom.
Someone please help me out...
Flash bacon add-on on top
bye!
So reinstall Modaco's 1.3, then install Bacon Add-On, and then reboot?
Yep That's the solution for some users
ok cool I'll give it a shot right now... I really appreciate it
ok at this moment it's still stuck on the animated screen... now I really don't know what to do...
Try flashing the stock rom
if u have the sdk installed, the run ddms. power on the phone usb connected to pc and see the log in ddms, paste-bin here
I have no idea on how to do that... I'm pretty much stuck at this point
try not flashing Modaco's Rom,
just flash CM's bacon
i think there is a confusion because Modaco's rom is in the rooting threat (made me believe you HAVE to use Modaco's superboot and then go to CM's bacon.
reality is you don't need modaco's superboot. after bootloader unlocking and flashing Amon Ra's recovery image you can go straight flashing CM's Makin' Bacon.
It seems people have been successful with CM's
maybe just go straight back to the start, check that bootloader is unlocked, flash amon ra's recovery, then flash Makin' Bacon
good luck

WOW, I really appreciate it and that just worked for me. Thank you to the both of you guys!
if you can get into bootloader mode (this is the lowest level mode you can boot into), you can not brick. Even more so if you can get into recovery (which is usually always possible if you can get to bootloader)
Good you found a way to get out of your situation.
Like i said in Android 101, you CAN NOT brick the phone unless you are updating SPL and Radio. All other stuff is just a minor inconvenience.

haha, i am glad it worked! I don't even have my Nexus One in my hands (my biz trip to the States has been delayed again ), but i spend the waiting time doing my research... it's a bit like the Holiday Season, just that the gift giving day gets pushed out further and further...
glad it worked and it confirmed my research - so i can go at it with ease once i can
This is good news. OP, you should update your thread titled with the prefix [SOLVED].
ahh how'd I miss that 101 sticky... thanks for the heads up again guys.
Edited title =)
Am I bricked?
Ok, my issue is that I cant boot into bootloader or recovery (I tried booting with rollerball pushed in, booting with down volume, abd-mac reboot recovery, abd-mac reboot bootloader) and it just goes right into my OS which is crashing every few minutes, and my radio wont work. Any suggestions? If I am bricked, can I send it to HTC even though its rooted and bootloader is unlocked? I dont care if I have to pay for fixing it.

First of all, if your phone boots at all, it isn't bricked. A brick is a paperweight - it doesn't do anything. Second, this thread of 5 months old. Third, people have talked A TON about sending phones in to HTC with an unlocked bootloader, do a bit of searching.
And finally, it is very peculiar that your phone doesn't boot into bootloader or recovery. Try plugging your phone into your computer, opening your command prompt, navigate to your adb install direction, typing "adb wait-for-device reboot bootloader", and turning on your phone. Best of luck!
People should be banned for bumping 5 month old threads with posts not even related to the OP's post. Ridiculous.
@rcxquake: thanks for your suggestion. That didnt work, it just rebooted the OS. Ill keep searching for my solution and how to send to HTC if I cant find the solution.
@GldRush98: Sorry for ruining your day. I put in a google search for what I was experiencing and this was one of the top result of anyone remotely close to my issue. Yes, this is an old post, but maybe someone had this issue months ago, and had a solution I wasnt aware of.
And like I said, I found this post, although not exactly my same issue, was as related as Ive been able to find. I didn't find it so ridiculous.
If you can find my same issue on another post, then please help by pointing me to it so I can find my solution. I didn't mean to cause any issues.
Thanks
I for one am glad you posted. I don't know whether this is a solution for you or not, but I'm sometimes only able to get to the bootloader after I've had the phone off the charges, with the battery out, for some time. It varies for me between a few minutes and many minutes. It is hard to say because when I try and it doesn't work, I don't know if I've reset the time by having tried.
Anyhow, I found this thread because I'm having trouble with an N1, and one of the earlier posts may help me. Thanks for bumping the thread for my benefit.
Before you tell me to 'Google it' (which I have, and leads me to 1000 posts of people telling other people with the same problem to 'Google it'), please read.
I will PayPal anyone $20 with working instructions of how to resolve this
Phone: HTC Hero w/ chin
Carrier: Alltel
Story:
Switched from WM6 Palm Treo Pro to HTC Hero. Came with 2.1 and needed apps2sd. Want CM7 stable.
-Rooted using AndRoot.
-Installed SuperUser and Root Checker. Root Checker said I was good to go. SuperUser would not show any apps in the list this whole time.
-Installed Titanium Backup which said I needed BusyBox, but it would fail to install. Tried to install busybox and it said I was not rooted. Alright...
-Installed ClockworkMod and flashed recovery. Tried to reboot into clockwork recovery, but when I clicked it, it did nothing. When I clicked rom from sd card, and clicked the CM7, it said 'going to reboot now' but again, nothing happened.
I booted into recovery manually, but it was still in Android system recovery. Apparently there was some sort of rooting problem, so I tried z4root. Permanent root was stuck on 'rebooting', and temporary root said successful, but something was still wrong as BusyBox installer would say I was not rooted, and SuperUser app didn't show any programs to allow permissions.
I turned the phone off, and back on. It goes to the white 'HTC' screen, reboots, and then comes to a black page with a picture of a Hero and a red triangle and exclamation mark. I hold home and hit power, and it takes me into the Android system recovery. I wiped data and cleared cache, rebooted, and it does the same thing.
- - -
Now i've done many hours of research, and found nothing to help me. I guess i'm a bit confused on what the SDK does and how to use it, because it won't connect to my phone since I can't even boot my phone into the OS. I tried to download the RUU and rename it update.zip, but it says signature verification failed or not found in android recovery. I've done the clear data method by holding home, back, and power, but still nothing.
I need a clearcut answer for getting back to a stock Alltel 2.1 OS on my phone. I am more advanced than a basic user, and have flashed many roms on Windows Mobile, but remember I might not exactly understand everything.
I'm a silent browser on these forums but now I come to you guys for help. I hope to grow into a dev and hopefully help someone in the future in my position.
I read somewhere to wipe EXT2, but still confused on that process as it seems I don't know how to get into adb command line on my computer.
Try reflashing the cwm recovery. Sounds like you have no recovery image.

Dumb question...did you flash a ROM? Maybe I missed it in your post, but I see you installed Clockwork, SuperUser and all that, but don't see that you flashed a ROM. *EDIT* I see you did...
So...worst case scenario, if you can't even boot your phone, just start over from scratch...
Download the original AllTel ROM from here.
If you don't have HTC Sync set up and can't restore from your computer, use this method to flash it...your phone should now boot...
Then try to reroot, using this (preferred) or this.
Download ROM Manager from the Market and install ClockworkMod Recovery
Boot to recovery (hold home and power at the same time).
Once in recovery, wipe cache, system, data and boot (make sure you don't wipe your sd card! Do it twice for good measure)
Select install .zip from SD card, select zip and you should be good to go with a rooted phone and a new ROM.
I think that should cover it...
Ok, on your first link to flash my phone, the step says:
"With phone powered on, do "adb reboot bootloader" to enter fastboot."
How do I get the command prompt on my computer to communicate with the phone? That was my biggest problem when reading other people's posts. I guess i'm a bit lost. I installed the r10 android sdk which I believe is the first step? And when my phone is connected to the computer to enter these commands, is it okay if it is sitting at that screen with the red triangle?
Thanks for your help btw your steps sound simple, and simple is nice. One step closer!
Do you have HTC Sync set up? If you do, you should be able to restore from that to get you back to official AllTel...That's going to be the easiest way to get you back to stock I think.
And...I am on a Mac So, helping someone on a PC is not my forte with ADB
I'd try setting up HTC Sync and get yourself back to stock that way.
EDIT - To get it to communicate, you need to set up ADB and all that. Then just use command prompts...Try this thread for help/instructions.
I actually got it to load that rom with vol down + power but eventually got to 'CID incorrect! Update fail!', so i'll try connecting to sync.

What ROM? The AllTel one?
I have to take off until about 8:30 or so...get yourself set up with HTC Sync and get the USB drivers and all that set up, first thing you need to do is get your computer to talk to your phone...download the official AllTel RUU and restore to stock. That's task 1
Then we'll get ya rooted
I think I found a rom that worked. Currently rebooting. I can follow the rest and if I need anymore help, I'll give you a hollar. I should have had it right the first time, but I was following about 5 sets of different directions and mixing them around to avoid certain programs. I like yours though.
Send me a PM with your paypal e-mail and I can send it over. Least I could do.
OP, glad you got it. What rom?

It's tough sometimes to follow things...and as much as we always tell people to search, ya know, the search kinda sucks I searched for all the threads I linked for you, but I knew what I was looking for. If you don't know what to look for, searching is kinda tough. Glad you got it!
Now...if you want a real ROM, I'll just toss this one out there In all actuality, CM7 and aospCMod are quite similar, I am just partial to aosp's builds.
Let me know if you need any more help.
I have been looking through the threads, and havent seen what I am looking for. So hopefully i will not get flamed to bad. I tried to install mikeymikes GR12, I got through the first stage of downloading the gingerbread rom to the phone through odin, but then it went south. I lost root and was unable to get back to the download screen. I then tried to use the all in one tool to root the phone, and that put me to the recovery screen where i could not use the ok button, just the volume up and down buttons. I just managed to get the download screen to come back, but i cant get anything else to work. Any suggestions on what to do, where to go from here.
Thank you for your help
I would go back to stock first. I believe your problem lies in the bootloaders. There are two bootloaders in the beginning and if you don't have the gingerbread ones installed, you won't install gingerbread properly.
I would use DesignGears One Click Odin to go back to stock and load the Froyo drivers. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989. Make sure you open up Odin first before plugging in your phone, then hit the Start button.
Once that is done, you can try again, but read about getting the GB bootloaders installed properly before you try to flash a GB ROM. Any of the GB ROM instructions should get you there. Just make sure you know all the steps before you try it again.
Good Luck!!
I don't see why you would be flamed for your question. That is what Q&A is for and you are in a bad spot. The biggest thing to remember is to be as specific as possible when you post a question. This includes what you were trying to do, what steps you took, what was the result, when did the problem occur (which step) and what you have tried to do, if anything to fix it.
One more thing. It is always possible that the USB cable is bad or that the USB port you are plugging into (on the computer) isn't working properly. You might also want to plug into a different USB port.
Sorry these posts are broken up, but as I'm coming up with ideas, I'm posting.
Here's something you should try:
(I wrote this for Team Phoenix, hence the sig.. But it works the same with every ROM. There's a link to a very nice tutorial I suggest you follow).

Me too. If we can ... Remember not all things can be recovered from so please read everything twice before ever touching your phone.
10-4. My next question is: where do I get froyo from. Kies sees my eclair version as unregistered, so it wont update. And my ota sees an update is needed, but when i tried, the area im in has crappy signal, so the update failed and now i have to wait 24 hours to do it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks again
are you planning on flashing a custom rom?
if so updating to official froyo is A HUGE WASTE OF TIME
EDIT:are you Canadian by chance? if so check this thread:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=979133
I only plan to root the official froyo right now, that is what I had before I jacked it up. I am not Canadian.

Going on official froyo will get you the signature failed error (which you need the 3e recovery fix if you ever want to flash a custom ROM).
So, basically, if you want more than 2.2 official release. We suggest you don't update. If you're perfectly fine staying on 2.2 Froyo, then there's no problem lol
As for Kies, you shouldn't have any problem using Kies mini. Other than that, there is a 2.2 flash around here. I'm sure you'll find it doing a little search
I had root on my official froyo for a couple of months without a problem. Right now i cant get my phone to go into download mode, it only goes to the battery screen. If i can get to download i can make some headway

If the battery pull way isn't working. You could always go read on abd. It send SU commands and you could get your phone in downlaod mode that way.
Is there an easy way to get adb without getting the sdk. I downloaded the sdk and it keeps saying i need java, when i download the java crap it says the same thing.

Yep, I broked it.
So, wanna hear a fun story?
I got a free Hero, and tried to root it. First thing I tried was z4root. It failed. Then I tried RegawMod. Fail. Perhaps it didn't help that I had the latest stock version of the Hero, 2.32.651.x
So, then, me being a wise guy, decided that I'd just try doing it myself through ADB. I tried to follow CyanogenMod adb rooting instructions HERE. I kept getting stuck at step 5:
chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It kept saying something about how it couldn't chmod "/data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin" because it wasn't a directory. Well, duh, this I know...but I couldn't figure out how to make adb understand that.
Well of course, because I couldn't chmod rageagainstthecage, I couldn't move on to the next step, actually running ratc:
/data/local/tmp/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, this is where the fun really begins. I rebooted the Hero, just to see if that would help, and then I was going to try again. Trouble is, the phone wouldn't boot. Kept getting stuck on an endless boot on the HTC screen. So, I went into clockworkmod, wiped everything (except boot), and then restored the nandroid backup I had made before I started this whole process. Still no dice. Still stuck at an endless HTC boot screen. I tried a hard reset on the fastboot menu just for ****s and giggles...but still nothing doing. I also tried running the RUU app on my computer to install an older version of the stock ROM, but RUU would not recognize my device (even though HTC sync and ALL of the drivers are installed, and I had it mounted to the computer in clockworkmod).
So...I guess my question is - does anyone have any clue how to fix this? I still want to root the damn thing, but right now I'd be happy just to get the stock rom back up and running. I know if I could find a stock ROM I could probably flash it through clockworkmod...alas, the only one I found turned out to be a corrupt zip file.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

EDIT: that *should" unroot you back to stock. Then follow the REAL rooting thread (adb method) by regaw leinad.
PLEASE DISREGARD this thread. I'm an idiot...apparently the damn thing was rooted before I got it...which explains why my attempts to root it weren't working. Flashed CM7 in clockworkmod and it booted up with no problems.

Yeah, that's what bierce22 was saying - if you already had clockworkmod, you were already rooted. But it was a good learning experience for you, right?

My story is similar. Boot into hboot stay in fastboot mode and DO NOT VOL DOWN. once youve booted into hboot, plug the hero In and get the ruu started up. Once you've started the ruu, if you get the connection error message, click the action button (trackball) on 'fastboot usb mode' and for some reason, the ruu seemed to connect to it then. Hope it works out for ya.

Also, when rooting with z4, do a temporary first then after a successful temporary root, hit the permanent button. That's done the trick for me in countless seemingly hopeless situations.

Dear experts, I have seen similar threads as with the issue I am facing but I wasnt sure of few parts and if the process as a whole could work for me.
Here's what I know and what the problem is all about, appreciate any help to get back the phone in working condition.
First the basics:
HTC first
GSM unlocked, Bootloader unlocked and TWRP installed
I wanted to delete and format the device as I intended to give this to my friend and I did go to TWRP menu and then clicked on advanced wipe etc and realized I did erase everything the phone needs even to bootup. This I have done without taking backup.
What it looks like now:
When I boot the device out from TWRP, the 'F' logo comes up and stays like that for ever. If I go to TWRP pressing the power and volume down together, it goes to the TWRP menu and thats it..no options seem to help me on this screen to go past the 'F' logo at startup. If I simply power down the device on the 'F' screen it restarts and goes to the same screen making it look like its in a loop. Not sure if this is called soft-brick or hard-brick but it looks like the phone is of no use to me right now.
Can you guys please help me with resolving the problem..any help will be much appreciated

Well then you'll have to make sure you flash the boot.IMG as well,
So what you'll do is
1) find the stock ROM around these threads
2) sideload the ROM
3) flash it
4) flash the boot.IMG inside the rom
5) you're done!
Understanding what s-on/off won't be of use here really d:
And the stock ROM is somewhere around these threads. About the side loading you might find a tutorial for that on YouTube. Sorry if it seems that I'm just leaving you in the dust but I am typing this in a hurry since it's 2:50 am at my place. I will be back to whip up a tutorial for you if YouTube wasn't of much help
Okay
Let me try my best till its like a more sociable time for you tomm morning, I will post my updates on the thread on how far I go and any questions I may have..

Guess issue is with the fact USB debugging was disabled earlier on my device
Can you please advise further
Is it better to chat on google chat or something so its even faster and I could get this fixed tonight (my time)
Thank you
Finally got it fixed
Thanks for the help..it all worked fine and the device is now working fine..
Thanks for all the guidance

wait a sec...you dont have a rom or kernel on your device at the moment right?
then there is no way to turn on usb debug on or off cause there is nothing managing the device.
um...use cmd and do adb devices. if its not there then i have no idea but if fast-boot goes into usb mode try flasing it using code
not sure what you would use, but see if "fastboot flash update nameofROM.zip"
but im not sure if that is the right code
stock rom for htc first

No problem! just be sure to hit that thanks button
Well then you'll have to make sure you flash the boot.IMG as well,
So what you'll do is
1) find the stock ROM around these threads
2) sideload the ROM
3) flash it
4) flash the boot.IMG inside the rom
5) you're done!
Understanding what s-on/off won't be of use here really d:
And the stock ROM is somewhere around these threads. About the side loading you might find a tutorial for that on YouTube. Sorry if it seems that I'm just leaving you in the dust but I am typing this in a hurry since it's 2:50 am at my place. I will be back to whip up a tutorial for you if YouTube wasn't of much help
