i was trying to root rogers htc dream.. i changed the SPL to 1.33.2005. the upload a rom and recovery and radio to the sdcard. i pressed the home button and the power button and did a update through that.. now my phone is stuck on rogers. i can go in too bootloader mode. can any1 help? this is for my dads phone. i'll donate to any1 that can help!
Wrong forum, ask in the Q's and A's. Also that's not how you root :/.
Can you tell us what order did you do those things?
if you flash spl before radio, it's over.
but he says he can get into bootloader so its not totaled... YET... guessing soon he'll make it though...

I'll help... find the original image for your phone and flash it through bootloader. This will get you a functioning phone.
You need to root BEFORE you flash to a new SPL, recovery, etc. Start from scratch.
PM me for my Paypal details.
Wow, i would never mess with someones fone when i dont even know what to do. Can you boot into recovery? You need root first,update radio,update spl,flash a rom,update recovery.

I think I may be completely screwed but hopefully someone here can help me.
I tried running the shelltool program to flash to faria's wm6 rom and now my phone is completley bricked. It is stuck on the first screen when you power the device on, the screen that says T-Mobile and tells you what rom and radio version are installed on the phone.
I have tried running the RUU provided by T-Mobile and that didnt work and I have also tried re-flashing the rom using the shelltool program using the original rom. Nothing is working and I am desperate for help.
If anyone has any ideas, please help me as this is my only cell phone and I do not have the money to replace it.
Please, please help if you can.

Did you put the phone into bootloader mode? Turn it off (pull the battery if you have to). Then hold the camera button while you turn the phone on. You'll get the bootloader screen. From there you should be able to flash a rom. (I assume Shell Tools works here, but I don't know). Is your phone a G4 or a G3?. Safest thing is to flash the Wizard Love rom I'd assume. See the stickie at the top of the forum about how to flash as it has links and all...
Thank you so much man... You seriously save my A$$.
If you are not doing it already, I recommend to back-flash first to the latest vendor provided ROM, flash your radio ROM of choice if you want (optional), then finally flash the latest ROM. This ensures that you have a solid base to start out with.
ok I have completely rebooted the phone to the base rom provided by t-mobile but I am having trouble finding shelltool so that i can still flash the rom i really want.
right now it is the standard tmobile rom.
If you know where I can download shelltool so I can flash the custom rom i want then that would be great.
A little searching or looking at the topics would have gave you your answer.

thank you thank you thank you.
PPCKitchen's BuildOS bricked my phone, and I had to do this to save it. I certainly won't muck with that app again.
Ok, please read the stickies before reflashing. Or you'll kill your device again.
Many people complain that they have "bricked" their phones when they really haven't. This thread will hopefully help reduce the questions on all of our useful threads.
How to tell if your phone is bricked:
1.) When you try to turn it on, nothing happens?
2.) Camera+Power does nothing.
3.) Home+Power does nothing.
4.) You flashed the SPL BEFORE the radio
If you answered yes to any of the above 4, you are bricked. You probably need a new board in the phone. Read more here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=516440 It has been confirmed that you WILL brick your phone if you attempt to downgrade your radio after flashing the new SPL. Not sure why you would want to anyways...
How to tell if you just need to re-flash:
1.) Your phone is stuck on the g1 logo
2.) Your phone is stuck in a boot loop
3.) Home+Power boots into recovery
If you answered yes to the above then you are NOT bricked. You have the G1 Night Light. This is (usually) a very easy fix.
The usual scenario is: You just upgraded your radio and/or the SPL on your phone and now you are trying to turn it on with no luck.
How to fix: After you upgrade your radio and/or SPL, you need to wipe a rom on the phone. For a plain almost stock feeling rom, checkout http://jf.andblogs.net/2009/05/24/jfv151-images-are-out/ if you are looking for hero, checkout the tutorial at g1upgrade.com.
I have also noticed when you flash hero, it will stay on the g1 logo for 5 or 6 minutes and then it'll finally start loading. Make sure your not being impatient and give it several minutes if you have just flashed a rom.
Last step:
If you have installed a new radio, then spl, then a new rom and you STILL get the g1 screen. Try it all over again. You probably didn't do something right. You don't need to ask questions in 30 different threads, your issue is not unique. You just need to search for some answers.
*Saved for future posts*
Edit:
Thanks! Updated.
I flashed the SPL before the radio whenever Haykuro released the Hero ROM and I didn't brick my device. Guess that I just got lucky. Thank goodness I know better now. haha
it's possible you flashed the radio prior to the SPL, only a loooong ways back.
Another thing to try if you are having issues is:
su
rm -r /system/sd/*
I was stuck in a boot loop and a quick ext3 wipe did the trick. The command should be able to be ran from console or terminal. You may need to mount /system with:
mount -t -rw,remount -o yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
You would need to type that in between the commands above . I ran across this in another post but i think this is a good spot for it too .
Duplicate post...
thanx
At least I know now how to tell if I bricked my phone or just flashed it badly thanks for this.

many people who flashed the new SPL before the radio are stuck at the G1 splash logo, but cannot get to recovery or spl bootloader / fastboot mode regardless of what they do, so this bit might be misleading...
they aren't technically "bricked" b/c it's loading the radio rom, but it never hands off to the SPL, so there is currently no way of reloading either of those to make the device do anything useful -- essentially a brick

This is exactly what happened to me, it was a brick, sent for repair and they replaced the mainboard.
I have fixed 2 phones that had no recovery and stuck at the g1 screen. If someone has this problem message me and I'll help you fix.
Good Job
Sorry this is off topic. But...
Thank you for this thread!
Ok,
By the way, has anyone figured out what The difference in the baseband is?? I have a U in mine...

really? if it can't get to recovery / fastboot mode nobody has published a fix w/o a hardware swap.
what's your method?
I will buy a bricked one off ebay and post the steps I do to get it back. I can only fix the "Night Light", I can't fix a truly bricked phone (yet).

You aren't going to get any help with sentences that atrocious. Can you be more clear?
My brother bricked his BRAND NEW Fender mytouch3g.. apparently, he tried the Sapphire hack and it will start up and go to the HTC MAGIC screen.. but doesnt go anywhere else...
He tried to boot into recovery mode.. and its the same..
i would look for the sappimg and boot into hboot holding volume down and power at same time....place file root of sdcard
will that put it back to its normal state?? and where do i find the 'sappimg' ?

NOO. lol.. Dont send him there. Because if he already has no idea what hes doing then I have to listen to it.
Try to get into fastboot or recovery. If you dont know how to do this STOP MESSING WITH IT.
I cannot understand how people can buy things without any research for what they want to do with it.
If you didnt make a goldcard, then right there you didnt get anywhere on the phone. If you didnt use the FIXed spl rom I said to use on the goldcard you didnt make, then you really didnt get anywhere.
But if you see an HTC magic screen rather then the Fender mytouch screen I assume you got at least that far.
Hold volume down and power and ses if you get a white screen with 3 androids on bottom. From there we can fix it.
but you didnt read my thread on the fact that ONLY the stock everything wil
I Have the same problem!
Am I covered by guarantee if i will not solve the problem?
Ok, so I am stuck at the white HTC spash screen, in the bottom left corner it says:
B 04
R 2.35.00WV
P DSDCANPZM-6125
D 4.01.93615
I had EnergyROM GTX, and I was flashing to this stock MR2 release and it flashed, and on first boot it is now stuck on the screen.
EDIT: Fixed! Check my 6th post, it was the steps I took to fix it.
You need to re-lock your phone to flash that update:
http: //forum. xda-developers. com/showpost. php?p=6838067&postcount=3
You'll see in the HSPL notes that there's a protection built in to prevent re-locking:
NOTE 2: this is unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs (except of course some Radio roms). also, this has overwrite protection against HTC RUU's overwriting HSPL with a stock one, so if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package is posted here below. use this relocker *only* if you need to return the phone for warranty, and only use it as last step - after reflashing stock OS and radio. see steps at the end of this post about how to reflash stock SPL.

Since I can't post links outside of the forums, take out the spaces here to get the link to relock your device - scroll down to the bottom to where it says "how to reflash Stock":
http :// rhodiumw. htc-unlocks. com/hard-spl. php
well, i cant get it synced with active sync so how do i get it to talk with the computer?
Bootloader
Ok, i got into bootloader.
then what, run the bootloader relocker on post 2 of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=578660
im confused the order in what to do things...anyone have a little more in depth info?
still get the white HTC screen after running the relocker...am i now supposed to flash the MR2 ROM update??
Ok I got it!
If stuck on the white HTC screen, get into bootloader on power (volume down + power button). I had to be holding them as I put the battery back in to get it to restart into it.
Once in bootloader, run this relocker
After that, get into bootloader again because you will still have the white HTC screen. Once in bootloader, run the MR2 update
It takes some time, I thought at first it was stuck again at the same screen, but be patient. It will load...
hope this helps!
You dont need to relock. Just put in boot loader and flash...

to flash to this particular official update you MUST relock as stated on the posts above if you have been using a custom ROM.
without it you will always get a stuck htc screen.
Attempting to relock
I know this is an old thread, but I have been having trouble with a device for several weeks. I decided to give this relock and reflash stock ROM suggestion a try, but the relock sits at 0% and doesn't move. Any ideas what the problem may be?
Thank you!

I'm a noob sorry for explanation I cant load any roms or install from sd card. The last thing i did was update recovery it went to 2.5.I booted into recovery and my sdcard was empty now im stuck. I can get into recovery but when i apply update and reboot phone it stays on white evo screen. I dont know what to put on my sd card to fix. I have portable adapter for sdcard because my pc is not reading phone. I have been down three days now i dont know what to do. id like to stay rooted but i just want my phone to work please help.
Do i have a broken evo please help?
unfortunatley the only way (besides sending your phone in) is to do a sbf of the phone. it will wipe everything including your root. search around on the forums on how to do an sbf. to initially do it you need to get to your bootloader screen by using a combination of the power button and something else (idk i use the droid x) then use a program to flash the sbf. hope this helped.
and your phone isnt really "bricked" because you can get to the bootloader/recovery. completely bricked is not being able to do anything at all. Im sorry if this info is incorrect in any way since im basing it off of my dx knowledge.
oh i forgot to say its not allowing me flash anything through recovery. is there anyway i could install to my sdcard then put sd card in my evo?
thanks im about to try now!
