When you said it got stuck do you mean it wouldn't power on at all or was it stuck on the splash screen? Was you doing anything special to your phone like rooting, installing a custom rom or anything of that nature?
Sent from my HTC Incredible S using XDA Premium App

It got stuck last night while installing an app from market.Then I left it on table so hoping it will finish it by morning.But in the morning it wouldnt powerup at all not even recovery mode and when i plug in to charge charging light wont come up..
It had few reboots and remove battery to fix kinda problems(stuck on some apps) few days back.Since its my first droid I thought Its normal for a droid...
I only installed apps from market.And have not rooted it..

Return it to wherever you bought it... Something is clearly wrong with it... and if you didn't S-OFF, root, or flash it then your warranty will still be in tact.

Thanx. Will do that.Bought it on ebay.\With the shipping costs I would have been better off buying from a local shop

HELPPPPPP! My HTC IS does not pass hboot screen.
The white hboot screen reads:
Alpharev
Vivo PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.09.1000
RADIO-3805.05.03.22_M
eMMC-boot
I do have the HBOOT menu. The key work.
When I fastboot/bootloder it just returns to fastboot.
When I choose Recovery or factory reset the phone blinks black and white with the HTC logo in center, and vibrates.
I haven't tried the other options of HBOOT menu.
How this happened?
I flashed the radio with this radio 3805.04.03.22. After the flash no voice for all in/out calls.
Then I thought to reflash the radio with a froyo radio: 38.02.01.17, which created the problem.
This a a big call for help! Any idea how to have my phone back to work, even at factory settings.

Please be patience and stop posting your problem on multiple threads!
I have now responded to 2 different posts you made with suggestions to try.

I have a full backup of my phone, at state when it worked (data.img, radio.img, ...).
It is possible to install this backup to my phone, which presently does not go past hboot menu?

I must assume that you made this backup using ClockworkMod recovery so you can only install these backup files if you can get into ClockworkMod recovery from the hboot menu when you select RECOVERY.

Hey, hows your IS going? you've tried flashing an original RUU using goldcard?

Vibrate 7 times and no boot
Hello,
I've got the "vibrate 7 times and no boot" issue on my Incredible s. Last time I was playing the "Plants VS Zombies", then the phone froze and my phone is not very hot actually. I took off my battery and reboot it, but it froze again on the HTC screen, then I took off the battery again, and then... never boot but only vibrating 7 times.
I've also read many about this issue, But more seriously than the other ones, I cant even go to the recovery(vol minus + power) mode.
The phone is S-ON and I've updated it to 2.3 with HTC OTA.
Would anyone help about this? or should I just send it to repair? that's cost much...

My IS is still "sick" - never beyond hboot menu. The radio flash was a really bad thing, and even the gb flash. A good lesson for anyone - think well before any update!
I played a lot with my IS during these days.
I tryed to install RUU_xxx.exe. The only one which went to the end was a sasktel one. As a result the phone lost S-OFF, which may be a good thig as now eventually the warranty may not considered as void.
I have tried a lot of combinations with PG32IMG.zip. I pou int oit even the files made with clockworkmod. No result so far.
At this point I have lost any hope to fix it. I plan to send it to service.

As I know about goldcard technique, I cannot create a goldcard without the phone running properly.

[Q] HTC White Screen - Bricked?

I have searched here and Google but can't seem to find the exact problem that I am having. Most similar issues are with different phones and I haven't found any solutions for the HTC Hero. I have been rooted for a couple of months and using CM6 (stable and nightlys) without any problems whatsoever. I have (had?) Clockwork recovery. My phone was running perfectly this morning and the battery was pretty low (down to 10%) so I pulled it and put in a fully charged battery. Now my phone won't boot past the HTC white screen. I can boot into HBoot ONLY (three skateboarding androids) and the screen shows:
HERC XC SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.47.0000 (HERO20000)
TOUCH PANEL-SYN0104
RADIO-2.42.01.04.27
Mar 1 2010, 16:02:39
I have tried all the options on HBOOT and can get into FASTBOOT but am unable to reset device, go into recovery, etc. It just goes back to the white HTC Screen after choosing one of these options and never boots up. I've tried with the SD card in and with it out. I even tried to RUU with the .5 Sprint official release but when I run it, the program said my phone was not found and told me to make sure it was plugged into the computer which of course it was. I also tried to run the RUU in FASTBOOT USB mode but still receive the same error.
When I run adb shell on my PC it says the device was not found. When I'm stuck on the white HTC screen if the phone is plugged in to the computer and I unplug the usb from the phone it vibrates 5 times quickly and the screen goes off, but the green notification light is blinking. From this state I am unable to power up the phone at all without a battery pull.
I just don't understand how my phone can go from being PERFECT to FUBAR when the only thing I did was replace the battery. I'm hoping someone can help me. I am eligible for an upgrade but really don't want to spend the $$ right now for an EVO or Epic when my area will never see 4g and the extra $10 is ridiculous.
My setup prior to this morning when I pulled the battery:
Clockworkmod Recovery
CM 6 nightly (Full-73)
BFS #11 kernel
FireRat custom data partitions
And I was rooted with Universal Androot
Have you tried booting into recovery by holding Home and pressing Power? From there you could try wiping everything then reflashing the ROM of your choice.
Have you tried putting the original battery back in and just recharging it fully, then trying to boot?

When I hold home and press power, I just get the white HTC screen of death. When I hold volume down and press power, I get the HBOOT screen and when I try to boot into recovery from that screen it again gives me the HTC screen of death. There is no way past the HTC Screen other than HBOOT and Fastboot. I also charged the phone with the original battery as you suggested and it still did not boot up beyond the HTC screen.
This afternoon I was in the FastBoot screen and plugged my phone into the USB that was connected to my computer. It changed to FastBootUSB and I was able to run the RUU. The program said that the ROM was successfully updated but I sat there for an hour with another white HTC screen before I unplugged the USB and then the phone shut off and I got the 5 quick vibrates. I really think it's toast. RIP, it was such a good phone!

Dang, that sucks. I was torn between getting an upgrade or buying a used Hero on Ebay until I find a phone I want. Turns out my phone was only 11 months and 10 days old so I'm still under warranty. My new Hero will be here Tuesday. I'm hoping it doesn't come with the .7 update but if so, I'm hoping I can RUU back to the .5 and re-root. Anyone know if this is possible? Thanks.

Yep, I was finally able to RUU while the phone was in FASTBOOTUSB mode and the program on the PC said the ROM was updated successfully but it still never got past the HTC white screen. When I boot into HBoot by holding the volume down/power button the screen flashes a bunch of things so fast I can't read them but it seems like it says something about HCERMG Image Not Found.
The Sprint tech(?) hooked it up and tried to diagnose, install the software but couldn't either. Anyway, since it is under warranty I get a new Hero on Tuesday. I am just baffled at how this happened when all I did was change the battery. You don't realize how much you love something until it's gone. I'm currently using my old Instinct and I find myself constantly turning the screen sideways and wondering why the display won't turn.
Same issue here, (2nd time actually). Last time I was able to put the HERCIMG.zip on the root of my SD Card and then load it with HBOOT, and then I was back to stock and all was good. However since then my HBOOT was updated to 1.47 and now the HERCIMG.zip doesn't work, it says "Main Version is older!" Update Fail!
I haven't figured anything else out yet. Is there an updated HERCIMG.zip for 1.47?

Do you mind telling me what you did (twice lol) that put your phone in this unusable state? Like I said I'm not sure how this happened and don't want to repeat it with a replacement phone!
Ok, I put the HERCIMG.zip on the root of my SD Card (found it through Google and had updated 1.47 HBOOT). I booted up holding the volume down and power and the blue progress bar filled up on the right side and when it was finished it went back to the HBOOT screen. I rebooted the system and still have the white screen of death. I'm convinced there's really nothing else I can do to get it running again and must painfully wait until my new phone comes in on Tuesday.
Couldn't tell you how it happened, may have to do with the battery completely dying, but not sure. I tried what you did but got the same results. I think what we need as an updated HERCIMG.zip that works with HBOOT 1.47
While in fastboot, did you try
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash data data.img

What about when you power on the phone normally. You should be able to get into adb shell when it is booting up.
I am going to try fastboot flash boot.img right now on mine and see if I can't get something.
Edit:Haven't tried. Working on a multiboot and now I only have one more obstacle.

If I was not in the FastbootUSB mode, there was only the white HTC screen and adb showed "no devices". I appreciate your help but I can't troubleshoot any longer as I had to turn my phone in to get the new one via warranty replacement. Your efforts might help someone else though with the same problem.
ps, I've been following the multiboot thread very closely and can't wait until this becomes a reality!! That will be so awesome!

Did you pay the extra for warranty or are all heros on warranty for 12 months? Who did you sent the phone to or did you just go to the sprint store?

All Heros have a 12 month warranty, I didn't pay extra. I first called Sprint Customer service and since it wouldn't boot for them to troubleshoot on the phone she gave me an Eticket number and the location of the nearest Sprint store with a repair center. I took it in and the tech (?) hooked it up to his computer and could not fix it either so he said he would order me another and it would be here on Tuesday. This was Saturday evening. I received a call today (Monday) from the Sprint Store that my replacement phone was in. Picked it up and rooted it in 5 minutes with Universal Androot, installed Clockwork Mod Recovery, Nandroid restored a backup from the old phone's SD card and I was back in business in 1/2 an hour! Probably TMI, I realize you only asked how I got a new phone but I'm thrilled to have my Froyo back!
Awesome! Makes me feel better trying different ROMs
Funny thing I found this thread, this exact same thing happened to me today.. Hero is completely done.. Getting a replacement tomorrow... I was running firerats also which I can't blame but I'm not running firerats on my new device... Since I installed firerats I've lost 2 8gb sd cards and a phone...
Weird thing is, I had applied the unrevoked-forever and eng spl mod/hack, now when I boot into bootloader it says s-on like what the hell happened? How did I lose s-off and root all together after restarting my phone.

[Q] No Recovery + Bootloop + hboot 1.47.000 + S-ON

Ok... I'm having quite an issue here and i'm not sure what to do next. I've been looking over the forums and I cant seem to find anything that helps.
I have a Sprint HTC Hero CDMA. The device just hangs at the white HTC screen when booted normally.
When booting into recovery, the only option is to delete user data.
I've tried flashing with hboot, I've tried using RUU's.. I cant seem to get anything to get this phone to boot.
Fastboot info:
HERC XC SHIP S-ON

**Additional Notes**
This phone does not boot. So anything required to be done from within android will not work.
ADB does not connect.
Fastboot - REMOTE NOT ALLOW.
I'm about ready to pull my hair out. Anyone able to offer any help?
I'm assuming you've tried deleting user data?
You've tried ruuing with a HERCIMG.zip? (http://www.mediafire.com/?m6x4sr682ruk027)
And after all that it's just looping?
So since ADB isn't connecting, you can't run a logcat to see where it might be hanging?
I probably can't offer much help and late Friday night is a quite time here.
Yes.. have tried deleting user data.. and have flashed several of those packages. I'll try the one you posted and see.

Installed that manually from hboot by moving it to sd, renaming it, and updating. It went through the whole update, said it completed, rebooted.. and same as always.. sitting at a white screen with HTC in green.

Sounds like it's bricked to me. I don't know what else to tell you, sorry.
are u sure not pressing home+back instead of home+power because thatll go to clear storage and it drives me crazy because i always do it by accident due to big thumbs lol
Me agrees with Bierce,you also can try volume down+power then press home to get to recovery that way. Alternative install htc sync and D/l an ruu from htc site connect phone and start the process all over .I know it's long but the eng-spl is reversible when you unroot but the unrevoked s-off, isn't it's at a different level,and they haven't created an s-on for the Hero that I know of. Good Luck we are here to help
EDIT: If you are s-on you can't use the HERCIMG.zip's. AFAIK but I might be mistakin.

Cannot get to recovery from hboot. Option is selected, but it just hangs at white screen with HTC in green.
I took your advice, about the fat fingers lol and used a screw driver to press the power button to make sure I wasn't hitting the back. It just displays the same white screen.. I'm beginning to think this phone does not have a valid recovery partition.
I've tried running multiple RUU's. It take me into bootloader, uploads, flashes, says it completes, but then just hangs at the same white screen after reboot.
if it dosnt have a recovery itll just go to the bootloader just try an ruu thats probably your best option at this point.
Yeah make sure you very gingerly and accurately press the proper buttons.

ICS upgrade made Incr S unresponsive

Hi All,
Need help. I installed the ICS ROM upgrade using the RUU from HTC dev on my wife's Incredible S and while the install process seemed to go well, when the phone booted up, the touchscreen and screen buttons were completely unresponsive (not laggy, it is completely frozen).
I have tried a factory reset from the hboot menu. The result is the same; the phone gets to the android home screen and connects to the cell network, but no touch screen or screen buttons working.
To make matters worse, it no longer connects to the PC via USB. The PC sees a device; calls it an "Android 1.0", but I can't interact with it. I have tried to force update the correct drivers, but no luck. HTC sync says there is no device connected; have uninstalled and reinstalled it several times. Have also tried a second computer.
I also tried to reinstall the ICS ROM from an SD card using fastboot with the PG32IMG.zip file. Again the install process seemed to go smoothly, but at the end no touchscreen.
I was going to try the stock gingerbread ROM using the SD card fastboot, but from what I've read, going backwards is not an option.
Both the cell provider (Virgin Canada) and HTC customer support were not able to help. The phone is past warranty and they want us to send it in for repairs.
Device is currently showing:
Locked
vivo pvt ship s-on rl
Hboot-2.03.0000
Radio-3831.19.00.19_M
emmc-boot
I've done a bunch of searching, but haven't been able to find anything quite like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was going to try the stock gingerbread ROM using the SD card fastboot, but from what I've read, going backwards is not an option.
Both the cell provider (Virgin Canada) and HTC customer support were not able to help. The phone is past warranty and they want us to send it in for repairs.
Device is currently showing:
Locked
vivo pvt ship s-on rl
Hboot-2.03.0000
Radio-3831.19.00.19_M
emmc-boot
I've done a bunch of searching, but haven't been able to find anything quite like this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The filename was:
RUU_VIVO_ICS_35_S_HTC_WWE_4.14.405.2_Radio_20.76.30.0835U_3831.19.00.19_M_release_281519_signed.exe
I also tried the Gingerbread ROM via SD card, but it gave me an error saying it was an older version.

You won't be able to run GB ruu without hboot downgrade, but that will require bootloader unlocking via htcdev site.

Yes, but the problem in doing that is that I cannot get a useful connection to the PC. The bootloader unlocking method on the htcdev site seems to require a PC connection.
Try uninstalling HTC Sync and installing drivers provided on revolutionary installation instructions page.
With no connection to pc you will find it very difficult, if not impossible to rectify. is it a problem with your phone micro USB or your pc USB. I faced the same issue and found it was my micro connection (which also led to charging issues) got it replaced at phone repair shop cost me $80 au. Now everything works great.

You might have more luck with the Canadian variant. Run the ruu utility until it gets to the first screen, the phone doesn't need to be connected at this point. Open start menu on pc and type %temp% in the run/search bar. A temp window should appear. In this window search for rom.zip and copy the file to your desktop.
Rename rom.zip to PG32IMG.zip, place it on the root of your sdcard somehow (another phone or sdcard reader) insert back in phone and start phone into hboot (power + vol down) phone will scan and find the file and prompt install, accept and wait. After installation check your touchscreen and let us know how it went.
if this doesn't fix it, I think you might be looking at a hardware fault.
facing similar issue, just want to ask anyone having issue with ICS/JB, no matter what rom i flash, its still nt smooth

[Q] HTC ONE bricked

A friend of mine has a T-Mobile HTC One and he bricked it, he asked me for help, knowing I'm very good with tech and android. But the thing is that I know everything but from Samsung, I always try to read a lot and learn from new devices to fix them or even try something because I'm always asked for help from my family, sure you guys know about that, but sadly I'm in finals and I'm barely sleeping and I've read a little but not enough but need I to help him so that's why I ask you guys for help urgently. Here are the things I know:
The phone is trapped in a bootloop after the Cyanogenmod logo and restarts itself after a minute
It is S-ON but unlocked
It is the M7_UL T-Mobile model
It is on HBOOT 1.56
The Radio is on 4A.24.32.63.09
The OS 4.19.531.10
It can still enter recovery and is recognized by my PC
From what I've read that has been a little bit, I can restore it completely with a RUU (kind of like a .tar in ODIN for Samsung), but it has to be Relocked and in other sites it says that it has to be S-OFF, needless to say that I don't know what tools to use and then I've seen that that Hboot 1.65 is not supported and well right now I have to create my SQL project, sorry to ask you guys as I hate when other do it just to not read but I swear this is not the case.
Help to fix this will be very appreciated

First thing, try this
Force reboot: press and hold POWER + VOLDOWN (under a bright light, not kidding!!), after about 5 seconds or so buttons should start blinking, and after 30 seconds or so, the phone will reboot, let go of POWER, but keep holding VOLDOWN to get back to bootloader.
Then reboot.
(you may need to try 2 or 3 times to get it right)
What recovery do you have?
CWM has problems with 4.4.2.
The rom bootloops
Install twrp 2.6.3.3
Make sure it's for your phone.
If that doesn't work, do you know how to post a fastboot getvar all.

Yeah I've tried that. The thing that I forgot to tell is that when I go into Recovery mode it shows all partitions in 0mb including Internal Storage and says it doesn't have any OS installed although the Cyanogenmod Logo appears at startup
Find stock recovery for Tmobile. Flash it. Factory reset from bootloader menu and reflahs custom recovery. You should be ok to proceed

[Q] HTC One m7_ul doesn't start

Good morning XDA participants.
I have a very big problem and I think that I converted my phone is just a paperweight.
After a lot of tries of change s-on to s-off, I was not able to do it. For some reason, I think that was a little tired and boring, I did something and now my phone doesn't load OS. Just turn on and stay on the HTC screen logo, I can enter to recovery but after try factory reset the problem continues.
Could be possible recover the phone? Or I have to forget that Will work again...it's just have 3 weeks
