Tbolt wont write p05IMG.. - Thunderbolt General

Hey guys, recently upgrade from the D1 to the Tbolt. Rooted and everything was working great. I have to change numbers and need to take the phone back.. :/ I've read the How To and tried it. My phone checks the .zip but does nothing with it and returns to the recovery main menu. I have tried 3 different downloads and had no luck. Im not new to ADB or rooting (came into it around CM4)..
Any ideas?
Im using this method.

Checks it how? You dont have it named .zip.zip do you?

Couldn't you just change numbers through your provider's website? I was able to through Verizon's, free of charge.

When you first reboot the device, it runs an initial check it seems before asking you to write it... It does that, never asks and returns to the main menu. On a reboot nothing has changed, still the same Liquid Thundersense..

you have it named incorrectly or your sd card isnt fat32. my guess is you have it named incorrectly and the phone is seeing it as .zip.zip

Actually, I'm guessing you might have it named wrong, too, since you put p05IMG in the name of your thread. It should be PG05IMG.
I'm running one right now to uninstall for a warranty issue myself.

I did the zip zip thing myself one time...about drove me nuts until I figured it out. Using windows 7 it showed as .zip, but when I finally clicked on properties I noticed it was actually named zip.zip

You, don't flash, in recovery you flash in hboot.

I'm thinking you hit the nail on the head, and if I'm not mistaken it's case sensitive as well.

Linux is case sensitive, but the bootloader probably isn't Linux, and the OP also said it did the initial check - if it went that far, at least that part of the bootloader is recognizing the file.

Seeing how this particular hboot is written for android (linux) you should consider it as a linux hboot bootloader and treat everything as if it were case sensitive. If you don't problems like this can occur.

Everything they said about case sensitivity, no double .zip but also make sure there are no spaces in there. When I was rooting and upgrading back to release firmware I accidently got a space before the .zip and it took me a minute to see it.
Sent from my HTC Thunderbolt

The file I believe is case sensitive and needs to say PG05img

PG05IMG.zip is how mine is. Just put it on your SD card, turn off phone. Hold down volume down and power button at same time and the rest should be automatic. At least that is how I did it.

Is my Thunderbolt bricked?

Hey, everyone. How's it going? I have been running Gingervitis 1.1 (?) and last night I went to uninstall an app that I had installed from the market. My phone froze up and is worthless at the moment. I can boot up, but I cant do anything. I see my wallpaper and the taskbar (even it is a little off), but that is it. If I hold power and volume down while booting it goes to the menu, but it automatically chooses to update the radio. I can't choose to do anything else. Wtf? Can I fix this?
Also, the phone will ring, but I can't do anything about that either.
I appreciate any help.
Hmm not sure I can be much help but you could try and get into recovery from there, rename a file say maybe a Rom to PG05IMG so when in hboot it tries to load it? hey just trying to help here and not sure it gonna work but could try a couple more ideas until someone smarter pops in. Sure your not bricked though.
If you can get into hboot you're not bricked. It sounds like you have a PG5... file still on your sd card. Take it out of the phone and load into your computer to delete that file. Put the card back in and you should now be able to select recovery in the hboot menu.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App
last i checked, a brick just sat there. so if your phone does more than set there, no it's not. it can probably be fixed. good luck.
power down your phone, take out your sd card and insert it into a computer. delete the pg#### file from the root of your sdcard. insert card in to phone, power back up.
try taking out your SD card and connecting it to computer, rename the PG05img to something else. then you should be able to hboot and get into recovery
Awesome. I'll go buy a card reader and see what I can do. I will post back in a bit.
Thanks to everyone so far.

After your able to get back into recovery. Try to run logcat from adb and see where it errors out after you reboot. If you can determine the broken app, you can uninstall it from adb. If not just reinstall the Rom from recovery. If all fails wipe and install clean. Good luck

They saved me once too. Glad you're up and running. Patience is key and so many people around here seem to be so quick to send the phone back, blame the developer and post how the rom bricked their phone, then start a thread about "Rumor Verizon is tracing all phones that spontaneously combusted to rooting. Am I getting Busted?"
Again, nice job on the save

your a noob mate seriously... these board are full of people like you... 1.. download the stock images from
http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/MZ604_HWI69.zip/
if your device is a wifi only and then push the files with fastboot...
ie.. unzip the folder into where the adb fastboot exe are
1. fastboot flash system system.img
2. fastboot flash boot boot.img
3. fastboot flash user user.img
4. fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (as you obviously cant handle root..)
Dont have to be an ass about it. But yeah already tried that when i try to push the files it tells me there is no such directory found. So i made sure in cwmr the system was mounted then it tries to transfer but tells me the directory is read only. So i tried the unlock procedure to make sure the tablet was unlocked. everything goes smoothly till i try to transfer the files again.

Not talking mounting in cwm here bud
Get to fastboot mode not android recovery same process power plus vol down
Then flash the files not push as mounting in cwm only put the files on sd card not flashing it outright from what your reply was
I was a noob once and soft bricked everything and yet i read and read and fixed stuff myself through searching.. Cuz ultimately if its bricked what do u have to lose then ey lol just find and try everything cant make a worse paperweight than one u may already have eh
But get to fastboot not cwm then flash the files like i said and it will almost certainly work

Thats my other problem my sd card slot isnt wrkn that was my initial instinct. If i try to flash to the sd card it says no directory found. Ive used 3 different sd cards and get the same message. Im really thinkin i got a bad sd slot even when it was rooted and running i had issues with the sd card not wrking. I had several back ups on it when it did wrk and those dissappeared as well. I bought the xoom soley because of the sd card slot was pretty much going to be my saving grace when doing back ups if i ever messed up. I tried wrking it in fastboot as well if i try to flash to the system its read only. If i flash to the sd card directory not found. I know these questions are irritating to more savy individuals and i looked around trust me the last thing i like to do is say der i dun broke it i need an adult. Im just makin sure i didnt over look something more savy ppl know about. I honestly think its bricked at this point. Ive tried what you said and any other way i can think of but i alway get some kind of error.

Ok thats a very helpful link. Did not know they had a special recovry for the xoom or realize that it wiped out all media if i didnt have this recovery. Lesson learned however i think its bricked solid now cuz it wont charge or come on at all may very well be a bad unit but i c where i went wrong with su as well i flashed 3.0 with out the chmod 4577 during the su update from cwm. Well im going to grab another one from bb and c what happens the unit is non responsive at this point. Thanks to everyone that posted here for the help.

you needed to flash the recovery with FASTBOOT.. not adb push chmod stuff; much easier and the process works
read the top post again.. get the recovery.img file (the v3 one the other fellow told you to grab)
1. hold the volume down button and the power button... some text will come on up the top about fasboot protocol and then
2. leave it plugged in to your computer and DONT TOUCH THE XOOM...
3. get your cmd.exe prompt window out and navigate to where your adb.exe AND fastboot.exe files are (should be tools or platform-tools...)
4. Place the recovery.img file into the explorer window where the adb.exe and fastboot.exe both are.... (this should be there as u keep trying to use adb commands but do it again to make sure)
5. type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
thats the recovery.img flashed...
Got my xoom replaced the other day works fine have root flashed the above mention cwm and everything worked fine. Funny thing tho when they checked to see if the original device had been unlocked they said it was still locked and they gave me a replacement. Other wise id have had to use the warranty i bought. Just thought that was odd.

There was no reason for you to root without first reading everything. Also there was no reason to root if your not good with phones or computers....just sayin. Please search.
I got your 10 char right here
Wow man best advice is the one given above. I searched for weeks for all issues before I tempted to root. Then days for the issues on custom ROMs. As well as radios. I dont bother with anything else but those. I would say get the rooted ATT ROM (PD98IMG) file, pull battery out of phone then put back, then boot into bootloader by holding volume down and power button at same time. If phone goes to bootloader it will recognize the PD98IMG zip and load it. it will ask if you want to install, just hit volume up for yes and it will do its thing. I couldn't find the page for the ROM so I loaded mine to megaupload it includes the radio -26.10.04.03_M. If you find it in Development Section dont forget to THANK the developer, I TAKE NO CREDIT FO IT. Just place zip file in root of phone micro sd card (not in a folder). (I always use the gold card I made to root the phone). You may have to take card out of phone and use adapter to place zip in itthen put back into phone. AS ALWAYS ON HERE FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK.
AGAIN AS ADVICED ABOVE " RESEARCH" before anything.

[Q] Is there a way to completely wipe HTC One XL?

Ok... so, I'll admit it, I messed up my One X. Was trying to put CM10 on it, got stuck on the blue, circular boot screen. Tried several fixes from the forums, but nothing worked. One attempted fix even ended up writing over TWRP. Now all I can get is HTC boot screen (complete with red wording beneath) and occasionally the CM10 screen. The fastboot screen says "tampered" and "unlocked".
Here's my situation. AT&T is sending another phone. I have to send this one back to them, and I just want to make sure that they can't figure out I was trying to install a third-party ROM. Is there a way to completely wipe the device altogether so that I just won't even try to boot?
If not, I'll just take my chances that they don't know what to look for besides water/physical damage and won't charge me full price for the replacement.
Any help is appreciated.
Your device is in a completely fixable state but ok...if u want to make it so your device doesn't turn on at all flash a Rom called ice cold jelly ...if youother wise the best you can do is have it say relocked and they would know you unlocked the bootloader...
don't flash ICJ, just relock bootloader and ruu.
if you have no physical damage why are you getting a replacement phone?
Did you flash boot.img?
And how about you not ask how to defraud att because you don't know how to flash and fix a botched flash.

You can't BC its an app.. Download tarp off the official site, a quick Google search brings it up first shot... Once downloaded, drop the recovery img into your adb and fastboot folder.. Enter fastboot USB on your phone. Now right click on your adb/fastboot folder and choose "open command prompt here"
Once cmd is running, type fastboot flash recovery <---- type in the name of the twrp img you dropped in

Exactly right! If you screw up your phone, take responsibility for it! Don't make somebody else pay for your failure.
Do you even read before you flash rom's? clear red letters. This could brick your phone or even worst if you dont know what you're doing
Research very much before doing anything, that's how I started

Completely agreed. The notion astounds me (and disappoints me also) that the OP was going to send the phone in for a warranty replacement simply because they didn't do the proper research and learning before modding the phone. And when the condition was completely and easily reversible. If the screen comes on with this phone, it can be recovered.

Phone not working!!!

I'm not sure if this is the right section or not, sorry if it's not, but my phone is really screwed up. I have the htc one S on T mobile that is running the viper one s rom on cwm 10 and will just go to a black screen after displaying the htc screen. I don't have any nandroid backups or copies of working roms either, so I can't boot from those. I did not have USB debugging checked before my phone became corrupt, so I'm pretty sure that ABD will not work, and whenever I try and plug my phone into the computer and access the flash boot menu, it will say that the USB is corrupt and it will not work. The cause of this is because I was messing with the build.prop, I accidentally deleted it, although I have a backup, there is no way if installing it in my phone's current state. It's getting to the point where I honestly don't care if I lose al of my stuff just as long as my phone will work again. Any knowledge shared on this subject would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

So... that's miserable. You may put a ROM in your phone SD card and install it using ClockworkMod Recovery.

Recovery and fastboot and that's about it.
Get a micro sdcard or if you have one already, get a micro sdcard reader, open case from back of your phone and take out the microsdcard.
Put it in the card reader. Copy the rom/image... put the card back in... boot in recovery... use the rom from sdcard to flash that rom.
Have fun..

Well... the only suggestions I can give you now are:
1. Go to this forum to ask for more help.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1528
2. Visit HTC's official websites to find some solutions.
3. Search for other tutorials about flashing recovery via fastboot.

Ok,I'll upload a screenshot, but as for a different pc, I only have my laptop. Different usb ports don't seem to have any effect though...
