k im not 100% on this but im pretty sure you cant flash that 2.22.27.08 radio right off the start when you havent had recovery flashed on yet.. i suggest following this method http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DR0HpUVv-BY but read description first because you got to downgradeto 1.5 if your device was on 1.6.. did you try to boot in recovery mode? holding home and power.. what happens when you try that. if i had a lil more info i can help you out..

also were you already rooted before this happened? and if you were do you remember where your device left off before this happened..? radio, hboot, recovery etc...??
what exactly does it say when you power on with camera+power?

sorry for so many posts lol but another suggestion would be trying to un-root and starting from scratch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=491350

Hi,
Thanks for the quick Reply when i press the home+power button i get the .T..Mobile G1 screen and it freezes there when i prees cam+power i get the 3 skating androind on the bottom of the screen and some writing on the top which it is:
DREA100 PVT 32B
HSPL 10.95.3000
CPLD-4
RADIO- 1.22.12.29
Oct 20 2008
and it freezes there also when im not using the SDcard
if i copy some files like the DREAIMG.nbh and few other files on the SDcard and try to reboot again using the cam+power it shows me that it does somthing like loading files which are :
DREAIMG.nbh -
BOOTLOADER -
RECOVERY -
BOOT-
SPLASH1 -
SYSTEM -
USERDATA -
RADIO_V2 -
and then ill have either to proceed by pressing the power button or cancel by pressing the action key(the green key) but nothing works if i press any button
I really dont know if the phone has been rooted before

k well first i would suggest the un-root method in that link i put in last reply.. and if that doesnt work than try loading a different hboot (dreaimg.nbh) try to get one that is 2005 or something.. i have one.. the only problem is mine is in a zip file (meant to flash in recovery after root method i posted in previous comment) so you would need to find a different one in .nbh form
P.S. the action key is the trackball (press it in) lol but that doesn't help because its to cancel..

i tried that too but since it says hit alt+s and since nothing si working even after loading the DREAIMG file i think ill take your suggestion downloading an old version of the .nbh file so can u providfe me with a link for it or can we chat on messnger or somthing ?

Also when you are rooting your device or just doing anything to it you always want a sdcard inside. specialy when your attempting to root

wait so did you get the exlamation point screen at all? its like a triangle with an exclamation point and i think a pic of a phone..

no nothing at all it stopps where it shows the loaded file and nothing after that

i mean when your trying to load the update.zip.... what kind of messenger do you have? would make this a lot easier.. lol

so when you hold home and power it always freezes? or do you get to a screen wit the triangle on it?

this is what im getting after booting using the cam+power button

try this file http://www.4shared.com/file/MnKYPHSr/DREAIMG.html

yeah thats normal you should get that.. the only reason it wouldnt work is if your teying to load the same one thats on already.. try formatting your sd than put it back in your device leaving it empty, than boot up with cam+power and when you get the skateboard guys press and hold green button, red button and menu. that should reboot so you dont have to remove battery... try that than tell me exactly what happens

sorry but its doing the same thing and stopps right where its showing in the picture in my previous post

Vol Down+Power Buttons are not working when trying to flash!!!

Hi,
I've searched alot for this kinda problem but it seems I AM the only one who has this problem.
I had succesfully installed R2AA0010 UK ROM 4 months ago using Micro SD Method, but now when i'm trying to upgrade it to R3A version the Volume Down+Power Button is not working and I can make it to tri color screen. (Just nothing happens)
I've tried SSPL Manual as well but it stops on screen "Loading..." and nothing is happening!
Please help!!!

how to hard reset then?

I think i'm gonna lose it
You can just load the bootloader from the windows directory...
I think it is called botloader.exe
there is only 1 o... try to open that .exe bootloader should show up and you are ready to flash.

Use clear storage to hard reset....and if you are doing sd card method maybe you forgot to rename your file into kovsimg.nbh or whatever it's suppose to be

Yes, I can go to tricolor screen through windows but as i said it will stop at "Loading..." screen. I've read the instructions and I renamed it to kovsimg.nbh as well.
I cannot hard reset using the silver buttons but I did it with clear storage icon! but nothing changed!!!!

HR through settings
another way to hard reset it to go
start > settings > system tab > clear storage
then press 1234 and press yes
maybe your spl is a bit damaged cause you can't hard reset and you can't flash sspl
try flashing hspl again
to hard reset
switch off
press both silver buttons
just press power button briefly, dont hold power button.
keep pressing both silver buttons till reset screen
hope this helps.

Next time you can call this screen the bootloader screen... don't call it volume down and power button because it is very misleading...

U need to copy Rom which U want to upgrade to SD card. If u want cooked room so flash Hard-SPL, and then it will automatically install rom U want. or if stock Rom so flash Hard-SPL back to stocks.

Bricked Rogers HTC Dream

Hi folks,
This is a repost from a wrong forum. Sorry guys
I have a HTC Dream which I guess I tried unsuccessfully to root. I used the method to load the software as described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=130
At step 10, "10.Apply “update.zip”, wait until phone idles, then press the HOME + BACK buttons. It will reboot, finish writing “hboot.img”, then reboot again into Recovery mode by itself. Do not interrupt it at all until it's done."; I think I followed it verbatem only to find my phone is now in a constant boot loop
It shows a Rogers logo and I'm unable to boot into any mode (recovery or otherwise) with any key combo (I've tried Camera+Power, Home + Power/End) but the phone doesn't respond and keeps showing the Rogers screen.
I saw some instructions on what to do when this happens. One suggestion was to copy DREAIMG.nbh to the SD-Card and try booting with the Camera +End Button sequence, but the phone doesn't respond at all).
Any ideas on what can be done? Is it bricked? I can see the logo and I know it boots...perhaps the bootloader is trashed and needs to be reinstalled. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
LOL, ok, I'll bite.....
Unfortunately all the same responses from the other thread you started still apply. Have you taken any of the advice from AdrianK?

Your link to the post you followed is invalid....I don't know much about the rogers process, but it sounds like if you are unable to get any key combos to work then your bricked.

I guess you are right. The phone does boot. It simply stays at the boot screen showing the rogers logo. Taking the battery turns if off. No response any key combos and it doesn't show up anywhere with adb/fastboot when connected to USB. Any ideas or hopes?

What happens when you put the battery back in? Comes on by itself and starts bootlooping or do you have to turn it on? If you have adb setup properly, you can run the ddms.bat file that's in the tools folder of the sdk. With you phone plugged in via usb, run a logcat and follow it for a while....if it starts repeating over and over, then its a definite bootloop. That, combined with you not getting any key combos to work suggests a brick

The phone does not turn on, when the battery is put in. Only hitting the power button, which is when it vibrates slightly and becomes unresponsive. Given what I'm seeing, its doing something...the devices become hot until the battery runs out.
I did setup adb (and java for ddms.bat). Though there is no output in logcat (Simply Failed at the top). I've tried various key (Home+Power Camera+power etc) combinations to see if it burbs, but nothing.
Any ideas on what I can try. I'm fairly good with linux/unix and setting up development environments. Thanks.
If it's looping on the second screen, then you're not bricked. If I was to guess, maybe your SD is not partitioned correctly for the ROM you're flashing...if I was to guess.

Hmm...where is this second screen? I unfortunately have no output (from the time I hit power to any useable/known key combos ) on my mmda.bat java interface. None whatsoever. Is there a way to see the raw data thru USB to see what it does when it boots up? And if so, how?
Same problem here

same problem here, the device comes on when the power button is pressed, a slight vibrate confirms this, then just hangs on "HTC Dream" screen.

Did you flash a custom recovery
sounds like your root didnt work right I tried the unlocker way first and never got it to work right I would RUU and then re-root useing the guide in the sticky in the main forum.

Yes....I followed the steps under #2 on this website
hxxp://theunlockr.com/2009/11/18/how-to-root-your-sprint-hero-in-one-click/
(change x's to t's)
Try the tutorial on this page. Its the one I used and got it right the first time. If not, you can try Fresh's Kitchen. Its pretty much a one click root that actually works.
are you making sure you are not holding down the volume down button when you boot?
Hold down your home key and while holding it down press and let go of the power button. Just to be sure keep holding the home key. You should boot into a recovery console. Let me know if you get to it
If not you can still access it if you can get into fastboot....which is holding the down? volume button and turning it on.
Fresh's kitchen will Root your phone. I wish there was a way to get his on the top of google search's. His is alot easier than all the other methods.
Thank all of you that responded.
My phone was fixed in the weirdest way. I simply hooked it up to my PC with USB and rebooted both my phone and the PC and it worked.
So it seems that I may have simply unplugged the USB from the PC too soon and that is why it did not reboot all the way.
Anyway, that was just weird. A simple reboot to my PC while hooked to the phone through USB and it works fine and damage control Rom is working fine.
Once again thanks.
I noticed you got it to work. But I would like to add for anyone reading this, when you got the android guy on the skateboard its just the normally recovery screen that comes on the phone, its always there even when you flash a new recovery to your phone. Sometimes when im tryin to boot into recovery I will get the same screen, pull the battery and try again, Iv had times where it went to the white screen 5 or more times and then finally boot into my custom recovery.

You will probably have to wipe everything and flash a rom again.
Here is a nexus boot screen that will work. And it wont mess with the rom.

[Q] Noob needing help! Stuck at Boot menu after swaping motherboards

I bought these two heros because one was beat up and was new.
Beat up one:
Had a clean esn but a bad body
New one:
Clean body but had a bad esn
So i had a guy swap the mother board from "the beat one" to the "new one"
and now the screen is stuck at the boot screen. Every once in a while it will restart after about 5-10 minutes.
So my question is what do i do??? where do i go to fix this?
is there anyway to master restart it to be normal?
help please! thank youuu!!!
Anyone with any thoughts or ideas? please help!
Wow, I think you went about this the wrong way - I would have personally pulled the clean esn from the old phone and put it on the new phone with the bad esn....
But either way - can you boot into recovery?
This is interesting
How do you pull a good esn into a bad one?
try and ruu first

i read how a bunch of post about master restarting it by
holding the 'home' and 'back key' then pressing the 'power button' once
then clicking the 'center button' but that didnt work.
With the phone powered off, press and hold the home key and turn the phone on. After a few seconds, you should either see a recovery menu, or a picture of a phone with an exclamation point. If it's the phone with an exclamation point, you don't have custom recovery.

Nothing happens its stuck on the HTC boot screen
Try this..
You need to turn the phone off and while it is off hold the volume up button. While holding it down press the power (end call) button. If a screen comes up we can help fix your phone.

<vol down> Hboot mode

Read everything before downloading anything
RUU-ftp://hero:[email protected]/HTC%20Sprint%20Hero%20MR%202.27.651.6.exe
HTC Sync-http://member.america.htc.com/download/Driver/HTC%20Hero%20(Sprint)/HTC_Sync_2.0.40.exe
Android SDK- http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
This is assuming you are running windows.
Download the RUU on your computer. Run the file and follow the directions.
I am not sure if the RUU will install the drivers needed or not. If not, then download HTC sync and install. If at anytime it asks to connect your phone boot into fastboot (volume up and power). Then run the RUU.
If these fail download the Android sdk and follow the steps from their site. We will have to go a different route
I subscribed to the post so I will be notified immediately if you post something.
It failed to install the Sdk. do i just go ahead and try to run the RUU?
or if not im on the website
im downloading the Sdk right now
okay i downloaded everything and when i go on the andriod SDK it fails to download Android sdk

...you don't "install" the SDK. It's a zip files that contain needed tools for commands such as ADB.
Have you attempted to put the phone in Fastboot Mode and running the RUU? I've always found that to do the trick for picky phones.
Try running the RUU first. If it does not work you will need to unzip the android sdk to your c:\ drive. (c:\android-sdk)
But first I would try running the RUU and try and get the phone working

Stuck in HBOOT screen

Hey guys every time i try to boot my phone i see this screen:
HERC XC SHIPS S-ON
HBOOT-1.47.0000 (HERO20000)
MICROP-0110
TOUCH PANEL-SYN0104
RADIO-2.42.01.04.27

CLEARSTORAGE
Delete all user data?
<ACTION> Yes
<SEND> No
when i press the action button, it just shows:
"clear..."
then it goes back to the same screen
when your on that screen hit the volume down and then hit the home key that should take you to the recovery screen. Tells us what happens.
Nothing happens, i tried volume down then home, and volume down + Home key.. neither of them did anything

Heres some stuff to try.
Just noticed your not on the eng-spl so you don't have fast boot.
reboot your phone while hold down the home key until you hit the recovery screen.
hard reboot your system by taking out the battery and putting it back in (unplugged) and then boot the phone while holding the home key.
Maybe you can give some insight into what you did exactly to get to this... any new roms, kernels, spls, radios etc...
Held down home key and pressed power button, but it immediately goes to that same screen
Bought it off craigslist thinking i could fix it lol.. and if i couldnt i knew i could just ebay it and get my money back + little more
Sounds bricked. Can you bring it up on adb when its in hboot?

To get to that menu u hold power search and menu I thinks its line a factory hard reset to get off that menu I had to just pull my battery and boot into recovery holding the home and power button sounds like ur hitting the search button as well wen ur holding home to boot into recovery make sure u don't hit the search wen holding home might work

I'm Almost Positive If you have
S-On you won't be able to get into Clockwork Recovery... if thats what your using?
But anyways you have to get S-Off somehow? I used the Unrevoked method along with Rom Manager which I used to Flash the Unrevoked.zip from my Sdcard!
Also a Easier way to get into Clockwork Recovery is to Hold the Home Button and then just Tap the Power On Button wait a Second then Let Go of Both Buttons! That Should Direct you Straight to Recovery without All the Volume Down, then Home Steps!
Good-Luck!

Incorrect because to get S-OFF you have to be able to enter recovery mode to flash the Unrevoked zip or whatever method you used. Also flashing through ROM Manager is just an automated method of flashing.

I don't know if he's talking about the manager or just Clockwork Recovery, but you can still have Clockwork recovery without being S-off. When you root your phone with Regaw's or some other one click rooting mods, they usual install a CW recovery (I think Regaw's is 3.0.0.5) which I used to root after my last RUU to get the latest PRI about a month ago (probably when the 1st question was asked anyway).
You know if you hit the action button, menu and the end/power button it will reboot the phone (if your looking for a way when the phone is frozen and you don't want to pull the battery).
Happy Father's Day to all of the fathers (and soon to be fathers). I need to change my signature too. I'm flipping between 3 rom's, so less will be best.
