Anybody know how to get into Bootloader mode on the Inspire 4G? I have tried holding the Volume Down button while restarting and all the phone does is vibrates and reboots normally. Am I missing something?
You're doing it right (Vol Dwn + Power)
Just make sure to hold volume first before you hold power.
Make sure you have fastboot turned off in sense.
I press volume down, then select "restart". Keep holding power down until you get into bootloader.
I take the battery door off to power off, then slap it on real quick then hold volume - down, then hold power button. It can be a little tricky to do. Then ull be in bootloader and have four options to choose from. Ive only done it manually this way because i was in boot loop. Was scared ****less the first time i got boot loop, cause i wasnt sure if there was a way to get to recovery manually lol.

Are you guys booting into clockworkmod? When I hold down volume and power it goes into that.

If you manually do the volume button and power button trick it should put you in bootloader mode then you can choose to boot into recovery, ive never had my inspire boot right into recovery unless i choose it in rom manager.

i tried doing that but it just goes to fastboot the reason that i want it to go to bootloader im trying to re-flash it back to stock...
Power your phone off. Now that your phone is off hold the volume button down and tap the power button. Now you should be in bootloader mode. If your trying to get into recovery mode download rom manager from the marketplace.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
be sure you have Fastboot turned off in Applications.
Another thing you can do is download Quickboot from the market...then boot into bootloader from there. Quickboot>bootloader
Is it really that difficult??lol, for me when I hold the power button while phone is on, it gives me multiple options to reboot , including bootloader and recovery...
If your phones off , then just holy the vol down and off key .
Oh and I have fastboot on and I have no problems.

That's because your running a ROM with an extended power menu. Other people might not be.
A lot of the people that are having problems are probably running sense roms and have fastboot on. I got confused by this at first because with fastboot on it doesn't actually shut off so the down and power method doesn't work
Sent through the power of Cthulhu.
You can download quick boot from the market. Makes so much easier booting into recovery.
yeah Im trying to do that I am able to boot in where it shows Hboot and then you have other options to choice from but Im not all able to select anything it just scans and then go to the scan mode and ask if i want to update
I was thinking about installing the gingerbeast. Has any installed that?
I did a nanadoid back up went into Rom Manger and clicked flash C/W-R and I made that..and I did that backup current ROM also.

You can delete it either using a file manger app like astro, root explorer etc or you can do it by connecting your phone to your PC.
As to flashing a rom. Place the file in the root of your SD card to make it easier to find. I prefer to do my flashing manually. Boot into recovery either through rom manager or through hboot. Scroll down to wipe data/factory reset. Select with power button ans confirm in the next screen. Next go into advanced and select delete dalvik cache. Confirm. Now select go back and choose install from SD card. Scroll to gingerbeast rom and select and confirm.
And yes you'll be able to reads your wallpaper

Thank you Phateless!
I've just bricked my phone this afternoon, and been looking for some noob way for recovering it.
It is all because I rooted this phone and might delete some critical apks that caused my phone lost its desktop/main screen.
Doesn't PD15img kill WiFi?
If you read the How To Root. . . thread carefully you will see that PD15img is only partially 2.2.1 and more has to be added to get a full install of 2.2.1 with working WiFi.
After waiting more than a week for an automatic update after I got my phone, I tried the PD15img thing without reading all of the posts and only too late discovered that my WiFi didn't work and a lot more had to be done to get it back. And it appears that PD15img can't be undone. I had decided to take the phone back for an exchange but. . .
That very night TMo did an automatic update from my incomplete 2.2.1 to real 2.2.1, which fixed the problem.
I didn't get the phone from TMo directly and I never gave them my IMEI. I wonder if the automatic update was just luck or PD15img had something to do with it.
Thank you.. My phone hasn't been rooted yet, but I'll give that a try. I hope it's a full update.. That'd suck if my wifi didn't work...

You're thinking of the OLD pd15img.zip that was part of the procedure to undo the OTA update. The one I linked to is the NEW one posted by Football that completely restores to 2.2.1 without issue. NEW radio, NEW SPL, NEW software.
I tested it on two different phones and everything worked perfectly.
You were thinking of this method.

If all you did was delete the wrong APK and it can be restored by flashing a stock image, it certainly is not bricked by any means.

Most people don't know what brick even is they do something wrong and think they bricked it lol I remember in HD2 forum someone did BINFS format and didn't flash rom manually thought he bricked it cause he had no rom installed and only stuck on bootloader. So told him to just flash using LeoCustomRRU as he could do task29 and flash.
BTW NRGZ28 thanks for cooking NRG roms bro loved your 6.5.X work specially the whole 29XXX base as it was most stable and fast to bad HD2 is stolen.

I followed the guide you gave me since i was using an obsolete one and it worked perfectly. My phone says its on 2.2.1 but it doesnt feel like i am.... i remember after my update the market app was completely different, it has this half circle kind of look to it where it featured some popular apps. this version of 2.2.1 doesnt have that. is there any specific reason for that or am i missing something?
thanks again for your help!
The market update itself was a separate update "just to the market app" than 2.2.1. I had to force 2.2.1 on my phone early on; market came later. You should be able to find it in the apps/themes section, or just give it time and it should update itself.
Great post but I really need help.
I guess my phone is from some other batch or ... who know these chinese these days.
Anyways my menu is just different from described.
as folllows:
HBOOT screen
FASTBOOT (gets me to FASTBOOT screen)
RECOVERY (just give triangle makeing out with exclamation point)
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
IMAGE CRC
FASTBOOT sreen
BOOTLOADER (gets me back to HBOOT screen)
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
Don't really want to go with pd15img.zip route to preserve data. (So far)
Thanks
btw - I'm on Simple Mobile so no OTA for me

I don't quite understand your issue here? Is it that you get stuck at the recovery screen with a triangle? Did you read step 7 of the previous posts clearly?
7. Use the volume rocker highlight RECOVERY and press power to select. If you see an exclamation point instead of the blue menu, you might have to press volume up or down to get into the blue recovery menu.
Ok, maybe this time it will post.
Thanks for your answer Genocaust
I'm noob so I'm trying everything that comes to my mind several times before bugging good people.
Somehow my menus seems to be different than expected. Anyways, right after hboot my first screen has following options:
* FASTBOOT
* RECOVERY
* FACTORY RESET
* SIMLOCK
* IMAGE CRC
Clicking on recovery gets me triangle/exclamation screen after several tries i managed to get blue menu by pressing VolumeUP and POWER simultaneously (just up or down does nothing at all).
there is apply update.zip but when clicked returns yellow message:
E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command
Invalid operation
and goes black and not responsive.
After waiting for say 20 min decided to pull battery. (phone works, still 2.2)
Tried above few times. Downloaded update file yet another time, even changed file name using file manager on the phone (i know).
I will appreciate any suggestions. I guess next step is pd15img.zip which I wanted to avoid or stay on 2.2
Phone is few days old and all stock
Thanks again
I'm new to Android and had my phone rooted everything seems good with the root but as soon as I go into rom manager and try to go into recovery mode I get the white HTC screen then starts to turn kinda brownish then black and will stay like that until phone is shut off. Please help I can't download any custom roms due to this I'm guessing. Thanks
Open Rom manager again. Press the option at the top to flash the recovery. After its done try to boot into recovery again.
Sent from Desire HD or Inspire 4G or whatever this thing is called via premium XDA app.
Ya I tried that already a few times and still does not work also changed the clockworkmod recoveries and nothing
Have you tried booting into recovery manually by holding volume down and pressing the power button? I find this way is more reliable that ROM manager.
Is there a trick to that I tried it my phone vibrates and get the power off option but no reboot to recovery thanks
Have you turned fastboot off? settings - applications - remove check from fastboot
Make sure fastboot is off, like the poster above me said. Turn your phone off. Hold the volume down and press the power button. You should then be able to scroll down and select recover.
All you guys are awesome the headache is gone it worked thanks very much
actually when i go into recovery i still get that htc screen that turns black and will frezze up
Did you use Bubby323's root method? That is what it sounds like. If you did, then read the FAQ. There is a fix for this graphical error.
So, I decided to try and update to BAMF Remix 1.8 without wiping data (just dalvik) after having done so successfully going from 1.6 - 1.7
Well, once it gets to the Thunderbolt logo it just stops and never moves forward
Is there a way to access recovery with just a key combo similar to HBoot? I have searched and cannot find the mothod, there was a way on my droid X, but this phone has far fewer hard keys and I have tried Vol+ and we all know Vol- does HBoot.
Thanks
With exactly that key combo and select recovery from hboot menu

I have accessed HBoot, it instantly tries doing an update, I hit Down to cancel the update then it says

Maybe I hate PGOIMG.zip or what ever the file name is in the root of my SD card...
Either way I cannot Vol down to Recovery in HBOOT

Hey, first time posting anything here. i have an HTC Inspire 4g and i rooted it and installed the RCmix3d Bliss sense 3.5 ROM. Everything worked perfect until this morning i woke up to a black screen. everything was fine but, the screen wouldnt turn on except the lights on the touch buttons. I took out the battery and restarted but nothing, eventually it showed (Once) and i thought everything was fine but when i put it to sleep and the screen wouldnt turn on anymore.. i came home and did something(i think) very stupid and tried to attempt to re-root it and now the lights on the touch buttons dont light up. i can tell its on because i have 2 text messages and the notification light keeps blinking. I also tried holding the volume buttons and power, it vibrates and the notification lights turns green and just stays that way.
Please if someone can help i would really appreciate it. I love this phone and its not going to be easy to replace...
Thanks,

P.S I read that leaving it without the battery for 12hours will fix it, and im doing that now.
I would boot to recovery and perform a wipe then reinstall the rom.

Np..
1. Turn phone completely off
2. Press and hold volume down and power for a few seconds. You should see the white background with colored text.
3. Select recovery
4. Make sure the rom or any rom you downloaded is present on your sd card..
5. Select install from sd. Card
6. Browse to where the rom is, usually in /download file, unless you moved it to the root directory
7. If the zip file IS there, let's try reinstalling the rom before doing the other fancy stuff
8. Assuming you are still in the directory where the zip file is for the rom you are flashing, select that zip file by pressing the power button when it's highlighted (navigate up and down with volume keys).
9. Select yes you are sure you want to whatever it says..
10. Wait for it to complete, hopefully it says the rom installed correctly.
11. Go back to the first recovery menu _ you should see back arrows at the top.. Select those arrows until you see an option to reboot.
12. Select reboot
13. Profit?
If this works, then you are golden.. You may want to see if the rom you are using is over clocking the cpu - your cpu might not like to be o/c
Let us know how it goes!

Hey, i been trying to research all day and no go :/ ... thanks for the step-by-step but im not sure if im explaining myself very good
my phone is completely black. i used this link here to root it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352
when my black screen was going on for the first time, i went home thinking if maybe i try n re-root it itll fix. well now im not sure if the process got interrupted but now its only black. no lights on the touch buttons and now i feel its getting worse and i really hope im not losing this phone :/ ... nothing shows at all no more. when i take the battery out and put it back in, i can turn it on (it'll vibrate once) but thats it... nothing more. again when i take out the battery and insert it back, if i hold the up volume key and power, the led notification light will flash orange and one vibration pulse will occur and the led will keep flashing.. holding it down, it'll just vibrate.. nothing on the screen shows anymore.. i want to call HTC but im not sure if i will be able to replace it :/ and im not sure if they can tell that its rooted..
Tonight i just pressed the power as if i were turning it on, and i will leave it over night to see if miracles happen..
please if you ANY suggestion, im alllll ears .. i hope to maybe solve this and learn my lesson to just not root it no more lol

so it wont wake up. Well i would pull the battery then put it back in. Now hold the vol button down while pressing the power. Now you are in recovery. Wipe everything (partition, data factory reset, and dalvik located under the advanced menu) now relash the rom or another rom. Make sure you download a rom and place on the sd card first.

Replacing hboot may fix it. But if your board is going bad it will probably happen again. I would just replace it while you can. Refurbs aren't bad, especially if they are in better shape than your current phone.

Pull battery, put it back in, press and hold volume up, volume down, and power button at the same time. Once Samsung splash screen pops up the first time, let go of the power button while still holding volume buttons. Should boot right into recovery.

Do a backup in recovery before factory resetting. This way, you'll still have all your stuff that you can extract.
If all else fails, you'll need to do this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21011261

Question are you using one if the custom recovery like maybe CWM sounds like you are in stock recovery but I'm new to this so I maybe wrong.

No you are absolutely right, those menus are in the UCMC1 stock 4.1.2
Decide if you want to back up or you don't care, if you do wanna backup there is some homework you have to do

you can also go to Samsung's website: http://content.samsung.com/us/contents/aboutn/kiesIntro.do
Download Samsung kies, install it and reboot your computer.
Put your phone in the download mode:
-pull the battery, but it back don't turn on your phone
-lunch Samsung kies on your computer
-hold volume up and volume down (while holding) connect the USB cable to your computer
-use your phone's volume up/down to continue to download mode
-once your phone is detected by Kies (may take a couple of connecting and reconnecting for your drivers to install and initiate)
Click Tools-> Firmware upgrade and initilazation
go that route, have the back up checked too
