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.

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

[Q] How Screwed Am I, Bricked

Ok so I over wrote the boot partition and my at&t note 3 is pissed. Its a long story as to why. I tried to re-flash the De La Vega file using oden, but when it reboots goes to a triangle screen saying that i have system software not authorized.
Not worried about warrenty. Just need to get phone going again. I realize how dumb it was to try and replace the boot, but I didn't realize it was going to straight lock me out.
How can I kick this into a mode where I can fix it.
Thanks in advance!

If you grabbed the official file for odin it wouldn't be saying that, or at least on prior devices that was the case. I can't imagine it to be any different for your phone.

Unfortunately I can't seem to find an Official Stock odin file for the N900a.
I don't need the phone to be 100 functional. What would happen if I flash the stock tmo rom on an n900a?
Thanks

I wouldn't flash the tmobile firmware. So you already tried flashing the one click odin file from the root de la vega?

if i have tiome b4 i sleep, ill upload the odin zip to restore to stock. you might ask design_gears to give you the link to download it or ms Kraz.
DO NOT flash a tmo rom. u will permanently brick your device,

Thanks for the help guys. I guess somewhere in the beginning of all this I had found the custom one click. Its running now. I saw it reflash the stock boot.img, so we shall see. I had tried the de la vega 2x. Every time it rebooted it tossed the AT&T message up and I was screwed. COuldn't even adb to the phone.
I'm hoping i can find a way to get a custom service to load on this stupid phone. Any ideas? That's actually what I was trying to do with the boot.img originally was load a custom init.rc
UPDATE: No longer locked out. The one click fixed. THANKS!!! Stupid me...
Thanks again.

no big deal though. Hopefully someone will unlock the bootloader so I can flash my custom kernel and all will be well. In time I guess.

Sounds like a great ROM hope to try it soon.
Very excited to try this. You have a way with words. I thought I was the only one who wanted performance over number of features. And this is GPE based, not AOSP, so you've already impressed me. Will flash in the next half hour and report back. Thank you, OP, for your hard work.

This seemed to be a problem earlier on with BETA testing for this ROM. I thought I had fixed it with an updated kernel installation method. I'm going to wait from reports from other users who have downloaded the ROM.
If it helps at all i am currently running :
2.22.401.5 baseband
S-OFF
and twrp-2.8.0.1
hopefully i can get on this rom fast looks too pretty
same problem, getting stuck at htc one logo
in twrp i wiped before installing
Should I convert to the GPE before flashing this or can I flash over 4.4.2 or 4.4.3 stock?

It shouldn't matter, but you should wait until I resolve the current problem.
Damn, stuck at HTC logo. S-OFF using Philz. Got all excited too...
Sorry about that guys. Please redownload from OP and make sure to wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache, and System.

No homescreen after root.

1.st off thanks for the extremely helpful guides and taking the time to root this device because the copious amount of OE bloatware is horrible.
2.nd I rooted my 510 and now i have no "home" screen. I can view apps and settings and if i recieve a text i can view it by clicking the notification but if i hit home it goes straight to the google search menu?
I tried a factory reset and nothing.
Thanks in advance.

Are you running a stock rom or something else? It sounds like Sense isn't installed.
well i was on the stock ROM. but now i think i made the problem worse by trying to fix it. now it wont boot passed the HTC screen. SO i guess i need to try to load a factory boot image?

Yeah, if you've got TWRP installed I would flash a stock rom. CM11 is also usable minus the cameras.

How are you getting the zip over to the phone? Use adb push or an external sd card. You might need to wipe (factory reset) in TWRP before you try and install.
Ok it opened the zip and says flashed successful. now its just sitting on the htc boot screen hmm

Sounds like a problem with boot. Do a factory reset in TWRP, flash http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=57174863&postcount=1 and then afterwards flash that ROM.
Download the zip in this post and adb push that file to your TWRP/BACKUPS/ folder and restore like that. I forgot the other ROM I had you flash required a previous backup to have been made.

Regarding http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-510/development/virgin-sprint-htc-desire-510-stock-t2961521 , are you going about it this way?
There's not really a rom that you can flash without already having a backup. If all else fails you can fastboot oem lock and then run the Sprint 510 RUU from http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads
dipspit that last link did it! Thank you so much for your help. Ive learned my lesson about not making backups haha.

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]
