So today I had a little problem with my phone. First off it was working fine all day and at night I tried to look at my phone but the screen would not get off a blank black screen. And it would only turn on once in a while but clearly didn't function correctly. So I was told to try rooting it to downgrade it to make it run better. So when I followed the step in, http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod , the installation keeps failing and I can't get out of the boot setup. I've tried everything and it's driving me crazy. I've tried so many searches and read everything I could but there hasn't been any solutions for this problem. Does anyone know how to exit the Red green blue white screen? The Call+Menu+End key doesn't work at all when I was told it should. Can anyone help me with this?
Sorry I have a T-Mobile HTC G1
Welcome to forums

I have been searching google and every forum I know for hours trying to find a solution. Maybe I am just too frantic to realize the answer but I ran elf-uspl and when it failed on the second step like the walkthrough said it might, it rebooted, but instead of rebooting it froze at the windows mobile logo screen. the walkthrough said it would just reboot and I could try again but its dead. I cant hard reset or even get to the boot loader screen. i really hope I just overlooked something.
If you saying that the device is getting stuck on Win logo that means it not dead yet
Try to get into bootloader mode once again and flash back a shipped ROM for your device
unfortunately I have tried everything I can find online to get to a boot loader or even just a hard reset and nothing works. I have held the volume down button and restarted, volume up, camera button, send and end, nothing seems to do anything. anyone have an idea?
ok, I think I found the problem. I don't have a genuine htc touch, its a clone. hopefully that will help find a solution. I can't really find any real info on fixing any clones.
I have the same problem.
Have a clone htc and there is nothing on the web about it. Did you find anything?
I have this phone. Hard reset is done by holding the camera button and the green (answer call) button down while sticking the stylus into the soft reset hole.
Ive done a quick search but cant really find answer or i cant use search properly lol. Ive found threads about changing splash screen which im thinking is the Windows screen, But what im after is a way to change the brand boot screen like my tmobile for example?
I previously did this on my HTC Touch and bricked it so i had to use a recovery rom and that then gave me a "smart mobility for testing only" boot screen. Can i safely do this with by Uni and add a new one?
Somebody please point me in right direction.
Regards.
try this:
http://buzzdev.net/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=9819
p.s. the threads that you found on xda, they are for the first screen too ( to change the T-mobile,Vodafone, etc. logo)
just can't find it right now.
i repeat they are NOT for the second (windows logo) screen
nice1 thanx, just done it and it works perfectly
I cant have read the threads properly, probably too tired at time. Gunna create my own and have another go.
i'm glad that it worked
Having strange probs flashing these screens, When changing from one to other sometimes they dont seem to change properly and instead overlap old one half way down or something.
Managed to get a decent looking screen but with black bar at bottom, will settle for that for now and try again tomorrow.

Hi,
I've flashed my phone (HTC Touch Pro) with Hardspl and then the latest Energy ROM.
Everything went perfectly and I was impressesd with how simple and easy it was and how much difference the ROM made to the phone.
Today, while using the camera, the screen went blank.
I tryed turning the phone off, pulling battery and a hard reset but its still the same.
Even after hard reset, the screen is blank but if i press the power button, on the second press, I get a flash of whats on the screen and then it goes blank again.
Should I try to reflash the phone again?
I've searched but not found the same issue
Thanks
The touch screen is still working and sometimes i can see the display, but its very dark and hard to read. Is the flex cable that needs changing?
Why would it stop working so suddenly?
Should i take it apart to reseat it?
Ok, I've found the same issue in a few other peoples phones but they seem to have beeen resolved by sendin the phone back under warantee.
I dont have that option unfortunatly so need to find a fix.
The only thing wrong with the phone is the screen backlight that suddenly failed
Can anyone help me or point me in the right direction please? I cant find a definite diagnosis anywhere
New Flex cable?
New Screen?
Pray?
Thanks
Back to stock SPL and stock ROM
Still no luck
Hi there,
I just bought the newest version of the Nexus 7 the other day, and decided I'd like to root it since I never bothered to with my old one. Big mistake. I followed what seemed like really simple instructions online, but after doing everything it said, my tablet is stuck in reboot mode. At first, it would show the Google symbol when I turned it on, with the little unlocked padlock at the bottom. Then it would show the circular colour symbol that would just keep moving -- no matter how long I left my tablet on it would just stay in this mode. Most things I've researched online so far just say "easy fix, go into fastboot mode and it will go back to normal". My problem is that sometimes it doesn't even let me see that screen, so I have to hold the power and volume button down several times in a row to see anything. Sometimes it will go straight to the Google symbol. When it finally did work, I pressed 'Recovery Mode' and the Google symbol appeared, this time without the padlock underneath it. Now it has switched from the circular colour symbol to the X colour symbol, but it still won't go past this. Also when I first reboot it, it shows the dead Android after the Google symbol, then a minute or so later the coloured X will appear.
Anyone know how to help? I've also read about restoring to factory settings and downloading all of these mirror images, but frankly I haven't found a solid 'how-to' yet. I am a Mac user so please only reply with someone I can fix with compatible software.
If anyone could help me this I would really appreciate it. I am stubborn and this will drive me nuts until I find a solution.
I've gone to many of threads looking for help to try to get my phone back on and working but nothing has helped so far. I can get to the fastboot screen and thats about it. Every choice on there either gets me stuck back on the black screen or it stays on the motorola screen until the battery runs out. When i plug it into my computer it installs the drivers but there isnt a way for me to get into the files on my phone and treats it like an unrecognized device, any help?
