i have the same issue , ihope any one help us with the new platform 4.0.4

Hmm... first question: what error did you get when you tried to restore a backup using Zune?
If the original ROM is still intact, you can try removing the phone's battery for a while and then trying to start it up again. That should take it out of update/restore mode if it got stuck for some reason.
If the bootloader is still intact, you can flash a stock ROM instead. The HD7 has many stock ROMs available, and is very easy to flash. I'm going to guess your bootloader is OK since you're able to reach update mode.
Even if your bootloader is messed up, you can probably boot to USB Host Mode and use a GoldCard (USB mass storage device with a device image on it) to repair the bootloader and ROM. In addition, that would let you install an older bootloader, then install HSPL and flash a custom ROM if you so desired.

Massive Problem--Help?

Alright so for some reason my phone would not flash roms fully they would always stop at like 89 percent or somthing...
So i thought maybe i should update my hard spl...
So i flash a new hard spl on my phone and now for some reason a htc pocket bios screen comes up and i cant even attempt to flash anything now...
Someone help?
Go get the official rom for your phone. Make sure your phone is in the bootloader screen (tri color) and it shows USB. Activesync will NOT connect (thats fine). Now run the RUU for the official rom (ignore where it says to make sure activesync is working. As long as the phone shows USB you are fine). Once you flash to the official rom, you should have a working device again.
At that point you need to verify if you have any type of hardspl installed (post what your phone says on the boot loader screen. You can get back to it by holding the camera button and doing a soft reset. Then just do a soft reset again to get the phone to reboot).
Good luck

[Resolved] Help, Sprint Touch pro 2 Bricked.

Hi, i must be the dumbest person in here. I just bricked my used sprint touch pro 2. Well it all started when i did not get any sleep, and did not paying attention. My phone was fully unlocked. So i decided i could not wait to flash my phone. So i started to flash the phone, but after it was done i realized i only flashed the BLEEPING SPLASH SCREEN !!!!!!!!
So when i tried to turn the phone on, it loads to the splash screen only.
So i tried to connect it to my computer, but nothing. So i tried to hard reset, it goes to bootloader screen, then only to Touch pro 2 screen. Is there anything that i could do beside Cry, lol. HELP PLEASE.
Can you enter bootloader on your touch pro2?
If so, then its good news and its not bricked Download an official rom from HTC website (or here from the touch pro 2 forum), connect it to your computer whilst in bootloader (multi coloured screen) - make sure is says usb and not serial on ur devices screen and double click your downloaded rom.
It should flash succesfully and you will have your device back up and running in under 10 minutes.
Good luck.
Maybe i should elaborate more. when i said, when i connect it to the computer nothing. I meant nothing happens. Meaning it does not connect, or recognize the Usb, or computer. Help, THX
Ok, you know how to get ur device into bootloader right? what does it say on the screen (dont bother connecting it to your computer).
It jumps right from bootloader mode to the screen that ask me if i want reset all setting to manufacturer default, or cancel page.
soft reset = hold the power button and the volume button down and softreset
I think you are trying to to a hard reset
If you can stay in bootloader, it is possible to flash official stock rom from your sd card. It isnt too difficult to do so let me know and ill tell you how to do it, but have a look on the touch pro 2 forum, you will find how to do it there
Okay, i did a soft reset. And it is staying at the boot loader screen. So it is possible to fix this sprint phone?
Okay, i think i have an idea what you want me to do. You want me to put the phone in boot loader mode, then down load a .nbh file onto the root of the SD card. And while in boot loader mode it should flash the stock rom.
Is that correct?
Yes exactly that
Make sure you extract the nbh file from the stock rom using winzip or another utility. You must then rename it to something like xxxxx.nbh (you will need to get this from the tp2 forum or when i have time ill find it for u). COpy it to the root as you say, enter bootloader etc etc.
You will find how to do this in the tp2 forum.
Good luck.
Once you get into the bootloader (the tri-coloured screen) it should say "Serial" at the bottom. Then plug the USB cable in from your PC, and that should change to "USB".
If it does say "USB", then you should be able to go ahead and flash a ROM from the PC (no need to do it via SD unless you really want to). You don't need an ActiveSync connection.
Omg. I love you guys. You guys are the best in the whole amm world. I will be donating shortly. Thank you so much. It worked perfectly in boot loader mode to connect it to the usb. Than i was able to download the stock rom.
Now should i hard reset it or just leave it alone. Thanks a million.
Hey, good news.
I guess when you said before that it didn't say usb whilst in bootloader was because you weren't actually in bootloader no matter.
Glad you got it back up and running without having to flash via sd
If you flashed an official stock rom, don't bother hard resetting, no point, if you flashed a custom or cooked rom then normally advisable to HR after a flash but this does depend on the rom.
Cheers.

[Q] Bricked! Can't revert to stock or custom rom

"So here's the problem. Just got my One S the other day and I attempted to install trickDroid on it. I got it rooted and unlocked and tried installing. Something went wrong somewhere along there and it wont boot up, only past the first screen and its all black after, i do hear the start up sound after a while but it stays black screen. So i tried to revert it back to stock and during the process I though I had to erase/reset data, so i did that. Only then did i realize that everything was on internal memory and it did not have an external sd card. So I cant install anything without transfering the files from my PC. I tried different versions of clockwork by fastbooting it because i heard it connect to pc automatically. But i end up with an I drive I cant access(insert disk in to I) or on the phone its says something about "unable to open ums lunfile htc one s" I also tried the all in one tool and the latest version doesnt have stock recovery. So the main problem is I can't transfer files on to the phone to reinstall any ROMs and I cant revert back to stock. I am thankful for any help anyone can provide me." sorry for the double post

[Q] HTC Desire x not booting

Dear Frnds,
This is my 1st post in XDA, Need help,
Using HTC desire x.
Yesterday I selcted to upgrade my OS from ICS to JB, the download was successful, and started to install.
1st the Red triangle symbol appeared and then the HTC boot screen, Nothing further. U left the phone for a long time thinking the new OS is getting booted. Then realised got stuck up in updation. The phone doesnt boot,
I have tried Hard reset- not happening.it again comes back to boot screen and stucks.
Recovery- Not happening.
With addition to above, there is one more prob- I cant switch on when its connected to charger, i need to disconnect charge to switch it on.
Nor when its on if i connect charger it doesnt charge.
Note- When i mentioned device on, it implies only only boot screen.
The device is still under warranty, should i take it to service for flash? Or do i have any other solutions for this.?
This is an unrooted device
Kindly help.
Thanks & regards,

HY,i had this problem ,here is how you can solve it .If you can ,enter the phones stock recovery(volume up+power) and go into bootloader mode ,then open cmd on your computer and tipe this fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.7-endeavoru.img ,this worked for me.This might have happened when you flashed the boot.img that was not installed correctly.if you need more information just tell.
Hi,
Thanks for the reply,
i had been dere and also seen the msg in my device as usb boot mode,
but wen i entered in cmd it says not recognised by internal or external command. operable batch file.

The syn drivers are been installed
Plz suggest m not dat good in softwares.

HY,are you rooted,because this is the only way you can do this what io told you previously.If you just updated the device software trough an official htc update,the thing that might cause this should be the hard reset you did.TRY to power down the device completly,and restart it,if it doesnt boot and works ,it means that you have no recovery installed on your device,i solved that by typing this in cwm fastboot erase cache but again i did this because i am rooted,also if thye first one didnt work you needed to tipe into cmd before that comand fastboot devices,to be sure your device is connected.SO IF YOU did what i told you before adn it didnt work even if you redo it ,try to change the RUU of your device (ROM UPDATE UTILITY),OR you can do this if you are rooted you are now in recovery(red triangle) where you should press volume up + power and you will get a small menu that says clockworkmode update.zip ,and you should press that.

[Q] Is my Lenovo A850+ bricked? If not how can I fix it?

Hello all.
I just received my Lenovo A850+ today that I bought from China (via ebay). After charging it to full I put in my o2 Sim and blank micro-SD card and started having a play with the phone. (It worked fine before I started messing). Noticing there was no google play store I set about finding a way to put it on. The first thing (perhaps wrongly) i did was install some lenovo usb drivers that some site told me to use with the idea I would flash a custom rom (which i never did in the end) and enabled usb debugging.
I tried to root the phone with a program called Xroot, which unsuccessfully rooted the phone, then I downloaded a new version which updated to Xroot 1.7.7 and that supposedly successfully rooted the phone. It also installed a new app with a name similar to xroot which i then opened. It has what looked like an app manager so i started deleting apps that i thought were unnecessary (bloatware). Suddenly the list of apps changed and the phone froze. I took out the battery and attempted to restart the phone. I now have the following problem:
After hitting the power button the phone it vibrates once, plays an animation and then gets stuck on the logo screen:
Left like this it occasionally vibrates once every 20secs or so but doesnt load any further. When plugged into my PC via usb, after a minute or so my pc recognises the device (but not removable storage and CD Drive (D Lenovo Suite (an exe) pops up. after installing a chinese software suite is installed, which does pop up when my phone is plugged in.
The phone only responds when i hold the power button, which turns it off. Basically I want to fix my phone, hopefully without sending it back to china. I assumed I could just get into a recovery menu and factory reset it. I dont think I can. I can get into the following 3 menus:
factory mode: (power+volumeUp) I dont read chinese, the top few seem to be info/component checks, the bottom one restarts the phone and the eMMC option doesn't fix anything.
recovery mode: (power+volumeUp+volumeDown)Has a menu with power off, reboot, wipe user data (didnt fix anything) and install update package (i tried copying an official rom onto root of sd card but it doesnt recognise it (it looks like it specifically wants a zip called update.zip) i even renamed but didnt help.
meta mode: (power+volumeDown) Doesn't appear to do anything and has no options.
Does any1 have suggestions on how I can perform a factory reset/install a rom or fix my phone or is it just bricked? If you want me to try anything just post and I will give it a go.
Thankyou.

You need to install the ADB drivers and the Drivers for your device. If they are both installed you can check if your device is recognised by PC by typing this command: "adb devices". If you don't know how to use ADB I posted a helpful tool.
Then you need to download a ROM on your PC and then flash it via Sideload to your device.

Im trying to fix my GFs phone its stuck on the boot screen when the phone got turned off during an update
I got ADB installed and can see it in the CMD but its not showing my phone as connected,
I suspect this is because I dont have USB debugging enabled but seems the phone cant turn on i cant enable it, ive spent a few hours googling and googling but i cant find any way to get anything to work seems it wont connect to the phone
The phone does show up on my drives list when plugged in but it does not show up as an android device in the device manager. Am i screwed or is there another way to fix this?
Every single thing i try has "Make sure USB Debugging is enabled." ......
is there some way to enable it when i cant get the phone turned on....
