Hey everyone I am having some trouble with my friends HD2.
He installed HSPL3 with 2.08.hspl
Then Magldr 1.10
Then installed android 2.2 ROM
Everything worked fine, made phone calls, texts, all that except 3g didn't work but I am assuming that was because he didn't install a radio?
Now, heres where I am stuck.
He told me he used the phone for awhile without 3g.
Yesterday he turned off the phone before school and turned it on after school.
-The phone started to fail to boot up in multiple ways
-It sat at the stick together screen
-Got to MAGLDR 123456 go go go (would get stuck there sometimes)
-Got fully booted up and would search for a signal and freeze
-Or it would fully boot up and work normally until he had to restart it again
Now he told me this is what he did when he got home from school
-He opened magldr and did a usb flash
-opened bootloader and tried to reinstall android
-got two errors
-could no longer boot passed Magldr
I recommended he switched back to a shipped ROM from t-mobile it was the (3.14 update)
He told me he tried it, got to 8% and failed, and now he gets an error along the lines of:
-software update failed please try again
He gets that whenever the phone started up.
Now I said oh lord that sucks, now I have the phone.
-The phone is still on 2.08 hspl
-magldr 1.10 still installed
-Just did a USB flash
What do I do? I have tried looking at guides to install android but seeing as how there is no ROM on the phone anymore I can't do an SD install.
How do I tell if my phone is 512mb or 1024mb?
Is the phone bricked?
I currently have the Android 2.2 that my friend installed on the phone installed on this computer should I continue to use that?

Hi all, so i have a particularly peculiar situation that happened to me the other day...I tried to root my rogers htc dream and i ended up failing but everything still booted and seemed to be the same..A few weeks later my friend was playing with my locked phone and activated a bug where the phone permanently locks and asks you for your google login information but doesn't accept it..Then when i rebooted my phone into recovery menu it was different then i remember (that is it was running cyanogen mod 1.2 JF)..i tried ot restore my phone but no go...then i tried to install a new mod (the new cyanogen mod) but it failed and now my phone is not booting past the rogers splash screen. I try accessing the recovery menu or the fastboot menu and both do not work/respond. What should i do? I need to get my phone working...the data on it is not important..i just want to get it rooted running android 1.6 donut...Thanks a lot everyone
Anyone? i can't access the recovery menu or the flashboot menu...what should i do?
Try posting in the Dream subforum where the people who specialize in that device hang out. The general forum probably won't yield much help.
Greetings all !!!
I'm a windows mobile user....I'm using an htc p3600 trinity.
I've never had trouble updating my phone's rom, untill yesterday!!!
Usually i just connect the phone thru usb cable and use the Rom Update Utility.
But this time
I copied the 'SSPL-TRIN' file to the device and ran it from the phone.
Sadly it hanged at the red-blue-green screen. No matter how many times i tried resetting the phone(soft reset), it showed the same.
I then ran a working Rom Update Utility(RUU) and it showed the updating process from 1- 100 %.
After completion, it now shows the htc pic ( as it normally does when starting) and then it shows me only a white screen!!!
I've tried using RUU, but no use! The phone doesnt even detect up on the activesync (using win XP)
Plzzzzzz gimme advice bcos i love this phone and dont want to get another one!!!!!
If you can get to htc screen, then you can get into recovery console. Do that, then wipe data/factory reset. That should fix the problem.
Its been a while but it finally worked Alhamdulillah(praise to God)
All i needed was to get to the bootloader screen.
I installed windows mobile device center(previously known as activesync)
on my windows 7 .
I pressed and hold the 3 buttons shown in the pic attached, and it got me to
the bootloader screen( the one with red,green,blue bars).
Then i ran the official rom update for my htc p3600 (downloaded from htc's website).
And to God's grace, it started updating and i got back my phone.
If this post has helped anyone of you, plz click on 'thanks ' on this post!!
Any help on further explainations...contact or pm me!
I have an HTC Touch CDMA and was working on getting android on it today.
I managed to unlock the phone, get the custom boot screen which says something like SPL 0.40. and load a rom onto the phone.
As Linux was booting (screen with penguin) the phone froze at
[4.552314] Rebooting in 3 seconds.._
Can anyone help me out and explain what I need to do to get this phone back up and running?
Just try getting a different version of android. You could even try Gingerbread. Also, check ur default.txt to see if its the correct one for your phone and everything is in place.
Hi Guys,
my HTC Desire GSM is stuck in Fastboot and won't boot into the ROM. The background to this issue is that I installed S-Off and then ClockworkMod and flashed Cyogenmod 7 to see if it would fix a reboot issue on the phone. The damn thing just reboots itself when the CPU is used heavily...
Anywho, after realising that Cyogen wouldn't resolve the issue I flashed the standard Virgin UK rom back over it and upgraded to 2.22.351.2 via the system update feature. The problem was that ClockwordMod was still installed and I had to get rid of it to sent the phone off for repair to Virgin!
So I did further research and found that I could flash HBoot via the AlphaRev.nl downgrader tool. I downloaded it and popped it into the root of my SD card and it flashed the bootloader back to Hboot 0.80.0000. That should have been it, but all of the sudden the phone no longer boots into the Rom. All it does is to power on and then go into Fastboot. That's it! When I try putting the standard Virgin Rom back onto the SD it tries to load it and then says "Main Version is older!" "Update Fail!".
How do I get around this now? The phone doesn't boot, so I can't re-flash S-Off and start again, not am I able to run the stock Virgin Rom within Windows because it complains about the versions.
Is there any ways around this situation? I just want to get the phone back to stock so I can send it to Virgin and get it repaired.
P.S. I *have* used the search function and spent the last 4 hours testing various things but I'm now stuck.
Cheers Guys!

Hello. I Was wondering if someone can help me with a dilemma......... i recently got my mega a month ago. I then decided to root my mega (As i do with all my android devices)The rooting process worked out great. The phone booted.....Everything's all peachy! root was successful! After about 3 weeks i wanted to record my screen. By the way i was running kitkat on my mega. So i installed a screen recording program. i wanted to record the screen so i started the recording..... but it wasnt recording. it kept saying an error message i think it when like gpu is not supported and change to cpu something like that! i thought nothing of it... so i changed the settings to gpu then to cpu (Not knowing what i was doing) after it failed to record again i threw the towel in and quit. i then played one of my mobile games(FNAF2) after i lost the game i went back to the homescreen and the homescreen was acting up... it was in landscape mode when i had the phone upright. it was bugging me to the point where i just rebooted my device. i tried rebooting my device BUT IT WAS IN A BOOTLOOP! i had no idea what was going on. So i tried to restore the backup and it was restored but it was still in a bootloop. at this point i was freaking out! when i went home that day i put the device in download mode and flashed the stock firmware but it failed and didnt work. but when the phone rebooted it booted up and my phone was on activation screen and it was in a different language. then i soon found out that my touchscreen wasnt responding! neither was the home button or back button. i really dont know whats going on. kies does not work i tried emergency firmware initializing and kies didnt read it i tried reinstalling kies and my phones drivers 4 times and it was a no go...... but i finally found a english firmware and i flashed it but it failed and said something like dev_not supported or something so that didnt work either..... i booted up my phone and the language was back to english and my touchscreen wasnt working neither was my home buttons or anything. i also tried installing custom roms but everytime i try to install them it says it completed installing but when i boot up my phone its the same activation screen. i really need help anything that can help will be greatly appreciated. also everytime i boot up it always says set warranty bit:Kernal
