Remove the battery put it back hold the volume down button and turn your device on. now you should be in bootloader modus and now flash a shipped rom for your device.

Don't miss HSPL ......

Thanks guys
I can enter bootloader screen with usb at the bottom. But can not flash anything, it just sits at 0%. SPL is 1.54.

Do you have a file called blacimg.nbh on your sd-card? Obviously you can't check, so i would remove the sd-card as well and try again. If successful flash via uspl.

Thanks ATi75
I was already reading USPL and used it and voila. Its alive again. Nothing else worked. Now I will always use USPL.
Thanks again

Glad it worked out! Had a similar experience a few weeks back. Not something i want to experience again for a long while

I know. I wasted around 3 hours and lost lots of my hair.
Thanks again

Can you get to the Recovery by taking out the battery, then holding home+power? If so, put the update on the root of your SD, go to the Recovery, wipe, then update. Let me know what happens.

The only ways to brick a phone is to interupt a flash, or flashing the SPL before the radio. If you can enter recovery or fastboot you can recover the device. But we need more information in order to help you with your specific problem.

Hero stuck on boot screen

My phone was acting crazy today so I rebooted the phone and now it is stuck on the htc boot screen . I am running Fresh Toast v2.1 and haven't made any changes for over a month . I try go into recovery by holding the home key but it does nothing , just hangs . I tried to see if fresh kitchen would see the phone but it doesn't . Any help would be greatly appreciated . I have noticed that the phone will restart after hanging for about 5 mins but of course it still hangs .
I cant get into recovery , however, the only screen that comes up is the screen with 3 droids on skateboards and it says
clearstorage

Do you have a nandroid backup ? If so , try restore . I cant even get into my recovery . If dont work maybe try Turn it off and try to hold the power and home key. IF you get stuck again, hard reboot again (battery), load up, THEN turn it off again. This time, turn it on with the (-) volume button held down.

Have you tried taking the battery out for 30 seconds and putting it back in?

i have no problem getting to the recovery screen its just that i have tried different roms and they all dont work, even ones i have had installed on my hero before. it just stays at the htc boot screen. i have tried reformatting my sd card and partioning it and repartioning it. wiping everything. my nandroid backup didnt work either.

Sounds like its time to ruu

Well, if worst comes to worst, just run the RUU and start over again.

Click on the link above that Dave provided and download that . Put it on your sd card and flash it . This will take you back to stock but you get to start the fun stuff all over again . Last case scenario . It could be worse , I mean , at least you have options . As of now , I have no way of communicating with my phone and no access to recovery . I might be screwed .

i went to usb toggle and put the ruu on the root of the sd card then i went to flash zip from sdcard and it says no zip found. what do i do?

It's a Rom Utility Update. Just download the RUU, install it, then run it. Follow the directions within the RUU. You will have to plug your phone to the PC and let the RUU do its thing. When it's completed, your phone should have a factory stocked ROM.

Just go into recovery and choose flash . Find the ruu that you added to sd card and flash it .

I believe it's an .exe file. I don't think you can flash it through recovery.

well i pluged it in thought the usb during boot and in the recovery usb toggle and when i run the ruu i get a error 170 usb connection error

Try turning the phone off completely, then run the RUU again.

Isn't there another way to boot? I remember something about using the down volume button, the back arrow and booting... that's probably not the actual keys, but I know it was different from home and power. Anybody?

1. When on the solid X, try pressing the power button while holding down the trackball and volume down key. A screen with 3 androids on skates should come up.
2. Wait on this screen for 5 seconds until the RECOVERY option shows up in the list.
3. Use the Volume Down key to scroll down to RECOVERY.
4. Once RECOVERY option is selected, press the Power button to boot into recovery
Are you using Apps2SD with your custom ROM by any chance?

i can enter bootloader and fastboot mode by pressing tackball and power button, but when i select the recovery mode its stuck on x logo and doesnt responds... is my device bricked???

i am on cynogenmod 6.1.1

If you can enter the boot loader and fastboot mode, then try clearing the storage by choosing the CLEAR STORAGE option on that screen. Beware however, this will be as good as resetting your phone and will wipe all data - I mean contacts, SMSs ... everything. Then select REBOOT on that same screen to reboot your phone. Hope this helps
Also, if you haven't installed a radio or HBOOT incorrectly yesterday before switching off your phone, then the possibility of it having bricked is quite low.

i tried clearing the storage and tried rebooting the device from the options but its still stuck on boot logo...

Remove the battery, keep it like that for 5-10 min and then boot it up again. If it still doesn't work PM me your alternate no. I will call you up.

no its still not working... i tried removing battery for 20mins... but still same case...

reflash a working recovery, flash a stock rom, enjoy your phone again.

Seems very much like the issue you have.

i tried flashing a working recovery but still it doeasnt works... all i can see a multicoloured boot logo... please help me out guys...
i tried flashing amonRA recovery image but when i try to enter recovery its stuck on x logo... i've tried other recovery images too but anything doesnt works at all

Try the unroot/restore guide in the wiki, restoring FRG33 with the passimg method. If that doesn't work, you may have to call HTC...

hey i had the same problem before even now what i did was went back to android 2.1 but when i installed some program like advance task killer it showed some ram less not some actually alot before advance task killer used to say 220mb ram available now it says 118mb available since android 2.2 needs more ram it's not loading properly cuz that's what mine did now i am looking for the solution to get my inactive ram.
Advance task killer kills all the app so now way the ram is still there even if it was being used the app would have closed the ram which it did but still it shows android 2.1

Clear the Dalvik cache and reboot

guys i got my nexus one back on track... it was a major hardware issue... it had nothing to deal with firmware...i got it repaired now from a professional device repairperson...
.... its working fine now... thanks for all the support from all the members...

I call shenanigans on the Professional repair persons advice to you.
I'm an Android noob, and i know that if you can get into bootloader, you're not bricked. I've recovered some scary **** from that vantage point in my few weeks here.
I'm glad you got your phone working again. I do hope that repair person didn't charge you Hardware Repair prices to do it though.

Phone does not boot

recently after i flashed a rom, i press reboot, then the screen shows nothing, not even the HTC logo (it might have booted, just not showing anything, i hear it vibrate), i wait for 20 mins but screen still doesn't show anything, tried flashing different roms but still the same! Any idea why?
also the bootloader doesn't show up on the screen, i have to guess whether recovery might be selected and only recovery shows up..
