Aw man, why'd you go and do that?? I have never dealt with a bricked hero (or any android phone for that matter) but have you tried to flash it with an RUU?

Somewhere in this cdma hero thread there was a guy who booted his bricked hero from his sdcard
But I dont think he flashed a gsm rom, I think he was having trouble with the cdma RUU

Don't give up on it. You should try anything you can. You can't boot into recovery can you?

If it wont even turn on then its not going to work. Everything needs power in order to fix your phone.

REALLY?!??! WTF? What do you do if your phone takes a crap or something goes wrong? I have been on the phone with Sprint 3 times now and for a tough issue, that is their default response LOL.
You could theoretically just run a sprint RUU...i think that is how BlueGrass guys got root.

What roms are you trying?
If you hold the camera button while powering on, what does the screen say?
What recovery image did you flash?

Assuming you are having T-mobile G1, Search for DREAIMG.nbh, you can install it through bootloader and that will be original ROM without root access.
If you have access to fastboot things can be flashed from there....

Fastboot drivers for W8.1?

My bootloader is locked and I was trying to bump up to 4.4.4
Problem is I have to flash my kernel manually via fastboot and my computer isn't recognizing my X in fb mode. I've done manual flashes on Windows 8 before but its been a while since flashing and my laptop is up to 8.1 now.
So my questions: Do the fastboot drivers for the X not work properly on 8.1 and if there are new ones where can I get them?
I've already been to the moto site to download the Motorola Device Manager but it still doesn't fix my problem. Without the kernel the phone boots but its all kinds of buggy. Luckily I was able to Nand back to 4.4.2 and everything is stable.If you can help me that would be greatly appreciated... And if not then I'll just have to wait on Sunshine.
If your bootloader is locked how did you change from your stock kernel?

Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for. I was trying to figure out what you did. Making sure you did not try and downgrade your bootloader. If you need to flash your kernel and your PC won't recognize your device why not use flashify app or similar to flash it without a PC?

I'm pretty sure you can't flash a stock kernel onto a locked bootloader device without using fastboot to do it. I haven't tried it but I'm also not trying to risk it. I was just wondering if the fastboot drivers were compatible with Windows 8.1 is all.

Updating TWRP using image file

Hello guys I'm trying to upgrade my TWRP as it's currently on v2.6.3.3. I have accidentally wiped the OS on my HTC M7 Unlocked UK model. I have been using ADB to push the files to the SD Card. I've already pushed the image file into the phone but I'm not sure how to install it like the zip files.
I've already tried installing ROM but I've had no luck stays stuck on HTC logo, I've even tried Nandroid 6.01 but the home screen wouldn't respond to touch.
My HTC has S-ON as I was unable to turn it off.
What are my options?
Thanks

Well, you need to set up fastboot and adb on your PC or laptop to get this sorted out, so I would sugest you to do some more reading and when you feel you got it, you will be browsing the internet on your phone in just few minutes [emoji6]

Were you able to fix it?
You mistake was using OOS12. When you are switching from COS to OOS or vice-versa the version you are switching to must be newer than your current version.

you need to pay someone to flash for you. I've been there and done that it would cost 30usd ....they got the oppo tools with the factory login to flash for you they don't need it to enter fastboot
