bricked roger's magic, desp for help.

Well, I finally did it yet still not rooted and stuch at rogers screen have read alln the threads anbd oddly some fastboot cmds work other sdo not very new to all of this and righly nervous now. have the rogers magic which is htc branded yet aftewr reformatting sd card like many times before it says no image file. how exactly maybe dumb question do i get the images to my sd card so they work. any help greatly appreciated and trying to flash the daldroid image for want an htc rom. thx, kevin
the simpler the method the better for right now everything on the phone is completely gone and i have no os.

A bit difficult to understand you.
It seems to me that you're panicking at this point. Unfortunately, that makes it very hard to follow what you're talking about. I just picked up my magic today, I've been experiencing some problems as well. I'd be happy to work with you to find answers to your problems, as well as my own.
I'll be putting a new rom on my phone as soon as I have figured out how to do it properly. In the meantime, calm down and try hard resetting your phone to see if that helps.
What does your phone do when you turn it on? HTC magic screen, then a freeze? If you get that far, try removing your battery, putting it back in, pressing and holding back and home buttons together, and pressing power (end call) button for a moment to turn it on. Remember to hold the home and back buttons until the recovery screen comes up.
It'll ask you if you want to clear memory, you select yes (action), let it finish (only a moment or two), and then restart your phone.
I hope that helps.
Caid.

[edit] go here and follow these steps in every detail. You need to do this to correctly modify your android device.

This means you'll need to download the sdk and a bunch of other things. There are a lot of steps involved in modifying your phone (ie: using custom roms and such) but it's all documented pretty well in many different posts. Don't let it overwhelm you, just do it one step at a time. From what I gather, doing these sorts of things is much easier on a winmo phone, so if you're just looking for an easy method, unfortunately, there is no quick method. But, again, it's all documented in a step by step manner, so take it a step at a time. Another thing to remember is, you're doing these things for your first (or second) time, so it will only get easier in time.
Good luck.

Thanks truly and your right however I have read all of this documentation and others many times but to no avail. Specifically, the main issue I am having is I have literally transferred all of the appropriate files to my device prob 50 plus times, no lie, and every time I get no image file. If I knew how to do this correctly everything should work fine. Yes, I tried your temp fix and am stuck at the roger's screen after boot up with bright red fastboot usb on the top left of the screen. Thanks and hope this helps to help me. Kevin

No, but thanks for trying to help. How exactly is my direct question do you properly place as they said in droid speak the system and image file at the root of your sd card? I know maybe a dumb question yet this is how close I am to flashing correctly and there are no other files on my m.s.d., have reformatted several times, and transferred these 2 files correctly I had thought yet it always says no image file when I press the volume down button??? How can they not be at the root of my storage card when there is nothing else on there? I am very frustrated and right now have a $625.00 htc-rogers magic brick and to me this should be the easiest part. Thanks, Kevin

I don't understand why you are trying to put them on your sd card? You can restore from fastboot if your can a) boot into fastboot and b) have the proper engineering spl installed. Then, it's a matter of going to the command line and
fastboot flash
ing your system and data.
Unless you can't get into fastboot?

Yes, I quess I understand now yet if you read through most of the stuff here it says as mentioned before to place these files/images on your sd card so the directions are not clear to some of us. Anyhow, I greatly appreciate your help and I do have fastboot and adb working properly and thought I had finally successfully flashed my device 30 min ago, yes for the first time and I was in shock I saw the screen in fastboot with all of the options, yet at the last step it failed so I am trying again. i.e. restore complete I think yet when I slected the option to reboot system it was still stuck on the roger's start screen. Any ideas? Kevin

I've come to the conclusion that flashing the magic is a very sketchy process. And I mean sketchy at best. It seems there's a really high failure rate.
there are many guides on how to do it, but it seems the people who wrote them, forgot to add some steps to the whole thing, and these are the kind of steps which make any newcomers more liable to incorectly flash their phones.
Where's the Magic wiki? I'd be happy to help add to it in any way I can, but it seems that this forum is in definite need of tutorials which can hold the hands of newcomers. Something that's written to be understood without a shadow of a doubt.
I will be getting my magic replacement tomorrow, if there're any long time players here who've got the whole root\flash\update process down pat, I'd love to chat with you on msn, to do these processes step by step, and I'll gladly write it all down in very great detail.
I'd like to help others avoid the same confusion so many users (including myself) are experiencing.

[Q] Android NAND ROM need help

Hi, today i tried to install this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620&highlight=android+2.3). I stuck to this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvS4EvS0PAw), but now i have a problem: i came to the step where i must run the ''ROMUpdateUtility.exe''. I followed the steps and when there should be an install of the new ROM file it's gone from 0% to 100% in like 3 seconds (that was wierd because it should take 10 minutes) , but when it rebooted it simply stop by the white screen with the green HTC logo...i cant even factory reset it. Please help me, what should i do to repair my phone

Have you tried the hard reboot? If so try restarting the device by holding down the down volume and the power button. I had this same issue and after many tries and re-installs the device stared to function again.

i have foxed it all...and installed the android, it works perfect. If there wasnt a problem with the Wi-Fi...can somebody help me with it
And where the hell is the ''Folders'' app so i can install applications onto android!?

suggestions
I admit I am a novice and I attempted to do things I shouldn't have done without research, but I read and read as everyone suggests in this forum. I watched video after video to make sure that I was doing things right. I still bricked my phone, as many people do, but I think I was mislead. I FULLY accept my responsibility for what I did. I would just like to elucidate some shortcomings of this forum without any malice.
You guys have a lot of power! You are very knowledgeable, and we as novice developers, who wish to do fun stuff with our phones, rely so much on your expertise.
I was able to successfully flash Android onto my SD card. It was awesome. I was loving it. But I kept reading that NAND would be much better because it would boot straight to Android without having to enter Window's Mobile first. I read that battery power would last much longer too. So I found out the way to flash HSPL3, MAGLDR, and NAND. It was working fine. But I liked the earlier format of the previous ROM running off of the SD card. So I figured out how to switch to another ROM.
It was on this forum" HTC Leo: > HD2 Android > HD2 Android NAND Development>" that I read in step 2 to "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM." I did, and ended up bricking my HD2. A post-bricking search of what happened revealed that it was apparently my fault that I had previously flashed my Radio to something that led to the system failure. I read somewhere else that if my 3G wasn't working to flash the radio. So I did.
What I am upset about is, that there was no mention made nor warning given in the above forum to ensure I hadn't already flashed my radio to something I shouldn't have. Nowhere on the page is there any information warning of ill effects by flashing to earlier ROM if the Radio was flashed too. I did exactly as I was instructed and flashed to stock Windows Mobile. So I have a heavy mirror as a result. I will try and go back to T-mobile and get something under warranty. They actually told me to come here to learn how to get Android on my HD2.
So my bottom line is just what Uncle Ben (Spiderman) told Peter, "With great power comes great responsibility." If you allow your developers to post phrases like "You should flash stock official Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM" you should also be sure there are no ramifications for performing such an action.
That's all. I'm still happy with the forum, it enables us lay folk to do some awesome stuff with our hardware. Please try and be more comprehensive when it comes to potential adverse effects. Have another person or committee edit the process and make sure that nothing is left out. I guess that is why it is in the forum format, but as a novice, you don't allow any comments regarding installation so I couldn't post there. Maybe someone else can save another phone if they come across my situation. Possibly add a new policy to have the administrator run through a checklist of things that could go wrong with each step before publication?
Hopefully with your power, you will get thanks and admiration for disasters averted. Keep up the good work!
Thanks,

[Q] Kyocera Milano, unable to root after OTA

I initially bricked my phone when I took an OTA update by accident while the phone was rooted. When I got the new phone I decided to let it update first and then try to root it but now the Gingerbreak/ZergRush method doesn't seem to work. It never reports that it failed but doesn't say success either, just the "Blue Hellions" thing. The script fails at the "adb remount" saying that the operation isn't permitted.
I've tried a few other methods but have had zero luck with them but most of them used ZR so I didn't expect a lot.
Since they don't seem to have a recovery image for this phone, there's not a lot I can do.
I'll take any ideas and upload logcat, etc.to help out (if I can...it seems to be about 100k which was double the allowed size for the last forum I asked this on)
Any and all help appreciated.

I just got my phone from Ting a couple weeks ago and rooted it yesterday.
Unfortunately I can't directly post Outside links (Not at 10 posts yet, and have no idea what else to post about other than this at the moment, which requires a link (For Credit Due Purposes) and I know it will be helpful to people that were as desperate as me for something that was starting to seem rather impossible and no one was paying that much attention to it.), but this is important enough that I'll try to just chop it up - You'll just have to put it back together to go to that site.
This works:
androidforums
.com/milano-all-things
-root/709963-no
-pc-root-method
.html
Not sure why the guide says "Enable usb debugging in Settings, Applications, Development" since you never use the PC, I enabled it anyway, and also enabled to install third party apps, or else Poot won't install, not sure why that isn't on the guide. (Maybe they got mixed up?)
A few things you might want to know:
After hours I finally found the solution. But the terminal still doesn't work for uninstalling ("pm uninstall com.google.android.books.apk" = Failure), you have to do everything though your phone (I'm using the app "RootAppDelete"). The phone roots itself with a third party app called "Poot" using libraries from "Ministro 2"
Before doing this you're gonna need something like 25MBs of storage or so (Can delete everything afterwards with the exception of SuperUser (Can't delete that) to get the space back (Also, you need a app to actually use root actions). - The "Ministro 2" packages are huge for this phone's tiny internal storage! 11MB around)
Make sure to install anything small first and anything big right before the phone gets over 15MB full, because at that time you can't install anything else, with low memory errors.
Another thing that might have helped me when I did this is - back when I couldn't root I made all apps default install to the phone with the android sdk platform-tools (I didn't want to risk anything so I moved Poot, Ministro 2 and SuperUser back to the phone before running Poot. since they default installed to the SD)
"adb shell"
"pm SetInstallLocation 2"
Know its been said elsewhere, but this works with the Milano. Wanted to say that in case you needed the space to use Poot.
And the last problem is after I did all this, now my headphone jack wants to think it has headphones plugged in all the time, If I move the phone around it starts playing on the phone's speaker. It seems like something is lose. Not sure if that was caused by the root (since it wasn't doing it before, and I've never used the headphone jack before) or because there was lose hardware, not sure. Still working on a solution to that, which I found
something similar here, almost looks like a common problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817872
I would put my proof of doing this have a screen shot of root checker, but alas its an outside link. Understand though.
And as I've read a million times before this, here's a disclaimer: I'm not responsible and use at your own risk.

[Q] need help with UnBrickableResurrectorR40

I need some help. I will set up the scenario first. My Cap has had the unbrickmod performed on it about 8 months ago. I had the battery fall out ib the middle of a flash. I was getting the phone /computer "you screwed up a firmware install" animation. I tried to get it cleared up with Odin and now it is black screen no matter what I try. Can't get download, or recovery, and the usb jig won't even get it into download. I am completely unschooled and self taught with pc and phones and I think I have done pretty well. Now, I have taken another big step and after reading up on what to do next, I installed successfully, Ubuntu in my laptop (xp pro)and I can dual o.s. or boot either o.s. individually and everything seems to work fine. I downloaded UnBrickResrectR40, HIBL.zip, and java jre7.0.5. Ihave no clue about Linux or command lines,but after reading a million different claims on how to install these files i was finally able to get the java installed. But, I can't get the unbrickres file to install. I always get an error saying file not found by regex. Now I have copies in downloads,desktop, home, files, and have changed permissions and types(jar,javaw.exe,zip.gz) and still nothing. No forums or help pages help. They all give directions as if you know what you are doing already. They must figure if you got this far you are a tech or a dev, not a noob electrician who can't even type. I need some seriously slow,detailed,step by step,hand holding through this one, if someone has the patience. Back to the phone. The only thing that shows any life in the phone at all is when it is plugged into my laptop. It doesn't show up anywhere but under device manager. It shows under "universal serial bus devices" as, SEC S5PC 110 Test B/D , location 0,device is working properly,driver provider-libusb.org, driver date-7-13-2009,driver version-6.7.7600.16385, not digitally signed. That is it. I need some direction. What do I do now? Hopefully someone feels adventurous.Thanks

[Q] failing to root

I'm trying to root my tf700, and although I have Unknown Sources checked, and the USB debugging checked, I still get the error that it needs to be turned on. And then I get the daemon is not running message. Is there another way to root my Infinity?
Also, my Build is 9.4.5.21, so I'm thinking of nvflash. The problem is that although I've unlocked the bootloader, I still see I have a firmware update pending. I'm afraid to install the upgrade, lest it moves me to the later build, and thus prevents me from using nvflash.
Can anyone offer some help on my inability to root? And advice on the firmware/nvflash situation? Thanks...

Which root process are you trying to use?
1click root or debugfs?

Sometimes switching usb plugs on the PC works.
I know a lot of folks in the forum have said that trying on a different PC also works.
Are you working with Win7 or XP or something different?

It says Daemon isn't running. And then next screen it says Rooting failed. System partition was not found
I'm using Windows 7.
Please excuse the stupid question.. but should the tablet be on a certain screen while this is going on? Or should it be off?

Hmmm,
The tab should be on and connected as MTP I believe.
Is the tablet seen when clicking on the computer icon or in explorer?
Also check device manager to see if the tab shows up in there.
If the tab is plugged into a front USB (if using a Desktop PC) try a port on the back if available.
Oops edit!
Did you try downloading and installing the PCSuite from the Asus website?

I did the SDK install.... no difference. It is showing up on the PC. But I have not downloaded the PCSuite from Asus, since I've been afraid of going there, and getting tied up with the Sync issue. I had read that if I had the sync on, they can track the tablet along with reading the info, and even doing some extreme things if they felt I deserved it. I didn't know if I was supposed to register it before I unlocked it. or what. The odd thing is that I have unlocked it successfully.

i've also moved the usb connector to different ports but with the same result. I do notice, that now, it says after saying daemon is not running, that daemon started successfully. But then, it says Rooting Failed.... System Partition could not be found.
Is it possible to install nvFlash on an unlocked device, but one that is not rooted?

Lemme see here...
Ur right clicking the .bat file then running as admin then?
http://androidroot.mobi/t3_nvflash/
...on the mobi blog it just says to be unlocked and have nerves of steel.

I had a nightmare getting the Win 7 drivers to install.
I eventually gave up and used Linux...

Nerves of steel is right. I'm about to try the procedure on another computer. Hmmmm. Is the sync app from Asus relatively safe to use? someone said it worked for them after they installed it.
If I'm sweatin' it now,... can you imagine how I'm a tremblin' with the nvFlash install ahead of me?
My ol' gTablet never gave me this much stress. :highfive:

Man I know...I was always afraid to do anything at first.
I was pretty afraid of a 500 dollar lesson gone wrong...then one day I said "what the hell man up"
So here I am today a satisfied customer!
I have PC Suite installed, I had registered and unlocked so Big brother Asus had my number from the beginning.
Seems like PC Suite is the only way in certain cases.

Well, it did not work on the second computer... And now, what I get is, daemon does start, and the cursor moves to a new line, and just blinks back at me ... ouch. Didn't I just feel silly waiting for 30 minutes, and nothing happened? Reminded me of the cat that just sits and watches the curtains move. Ah well. So, I am unlocked, but also unrooted. Does anyone happen to know if the one click app works with our Infinity? I getting desperate enough to pay. :crying:

HTTP://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1824713
Was wondering if you had seen this thread...
I was reading thru the debugfs thread and there it was.
Forgot all about it...there's got 2 be an answer.
We need to get you fixed up!
Coming from the ground up

I'm Rooted!
Whew!... Thanks to all who responded and pointed me in the right direction. It was not pretty. I encountered a number of errors. I'll list them below, in case anyone else is having the same problem/s I had.
1. After you choose "1" from the debugfs menu, it ends up saying "Rooting failed. System partition was not found." Check to see if the device is being seen. How you do this is go to the same directory you unzipped the files you downloaded, and start a command line from this directory. The question was how? Press the Shift key, while right clicking on the directory where adb.exe is, and you will get a window with a prompt. This is a very useful window. type "adb devices", and you should see some datafline" and then a code number followed by "device". Naturally, mine was not there. If this is not there, type " adb kill-server" Then "adb device", and hopefully, if the stars align correctly. You will see your device there with it's code. If not, then you have to check the device manager, and check the drivers. To do this... Go to the start box in lower left of window bar, and type "device manager". The file will be listed, click on it. and you should see your device listed. I found it twice.. once by itself using, and again under Portable Devices. I clicked on these, and updated the drivers to the ones in the same directory with the files you unzipped. Hopefully that will work. If it doesn't you might have to uninstall them, and reinstall them.
2. After all that, you still might not get past option 1 in the menu. Possible error, "more than one device found". So, you have to check if anything else is interfering. [I'm not sure if this was the culprit but as soon as I removed my Zunes, I was good to go].
3. And then option 1 gets a little further along and goes off to never never land. So... I moved to option 2, Manual entry of the partition. It warns you to not go into this section if you are not sure. Naturally, I shook off my cold sweat and plunged ahead. The address I used, from another post was "/dev/block/mmcblk0p1", and that seemed to work.
4. Then.... the app got stuck trying to reboot the device. You can check if it is seeing the tablet by the "adb devices" check. If is not, you have to fiddle with the drivers again.
5. Finally, after a number of tries, and a lot of colorful venting... it went through... and I was rooted.
Whew! It was ugly... But finally. :fingers-crossed:
I relate my story to encourage anyone who might be discouraged by the roadblocks. Hang in there, and as they say... "Never Give Up. Never Surrender!"
Now to tackle installing nvFlash. I have my blankie all ready.

AWESOME!
Way to go slugger!
So was another media device "Zunes" plugged up in another port?
You have done well!
It's pretty fulfilling to wind thru all this and come out with a desired result.
Thanx for the low down.
It will mean a lot to others having trouble.
Thumbs raised kiddo!

nvFlash adventures...
