i followed the instructions to the letter and after it was done
i was presented with a picture of an IC microchip and an arrow pointing down.
i restarted the phone and now it wont start.
i cant get into bootloader mode or recovery mode...
Please help me get my phone back!!!!
did you let it finish? the ic microchip and arrow pointing thing? or did you yank out the battery?
i panicked and yanked out the battery...i killed it, didnt i?
I think he didn't let the phone finish and restarted the phone cause it wasa taking too long if that's the case 99.0% the phone is bricked. It happend to somebody else here already. Jy
He just call tmobile and told them the wasn't turning on and they send him a replacement.
I think this is something that needs to be added to the flashing roominstructions.

i agree 100% please add that to the instruction for noobs like me
oh well, i just hope i get a replacement quickly
that happened to me so i called t-mo and told them that my g1 wont turned on at all and tried the other battery so they send me a replacement. of course i was a noob back then. i learned my lesson in a hard way so i suffer a week without my precious g1 lol.

also once you called t-mo do not let them know that youre modifying your phone otherwise they will not send you another handset.

how about take out the sdcard and connect it to the computer, put the jfr33 in it, and flash your phone again. It works
also he could try getting into recovery mode using adb or sumthin...i am not too sure about it...but i think it can be done..!!!

If the phone can't reach the bootloader or recovery console I don't think ADB is going to work but I could be wrong.
patience is a virtue
your topic title is misleading and could lead users who haven't tried yet to be too wary about flashing over to Haykuro's builds...
Ultimately...your phone didn't mess up after flashing 4.X..YOU messed up.
if you cant turn on youre g1 then it is dead, even if you connect it to pc or what if it cant be turned be on, it is dead cuz thats what happened to me so just call t-mo and tell them youre phone wont turn on and you tried another battery still wont turn and DO NOT tell them you modify or even saying you attemped to modify your g1's rom.
the best thing for him to do would be flash rc29 nbh and start from scratch...the phone is more than likely not bricked.

To my opinion, i do not think the phone is bricked since there is no hardware issue is involving, it's the software itself, if he can access to the root of the sd card, problem is solved.
but oh well, i would call Tmobile and request a new shinny phone . wait... they will send a refurbished one won't they? oh noo...
I have a similar problem, i was attempting to move apps to the sd card, partitioned it, installed the lucidrem rom and then started using his code and the flashing android loop started, turned it off and back on and still the flashing android, i used the fastboot method to restore my nandroid backup, and the phone is back to working, my problem is that i cant access recovery mode.
everything else is fine, just when i try to load the recovery mode it just stays on the boot screen, can anybody help a newbie out?
the bootloader works, and the phone can load normally, but the recovery mode wont start.

That happened to me also. When I installed lucidrem's rom the recovery would work. What it actually was that when you first rooted your g1 do you rmr installing the recovery img? Well its pretty much the same thing lucidrems rom didn't have a recovery img command line attatched to it. I just installed recovery again from the terminal emulator just like it said in the root your g1 thread.
Atleast that is my side of the story. I don't anything about coding. So I could be wrong but that was just my experience.

wow, thanks alot for your help, reflashed the recovery.img and it worked a treat, thought id bricked it good and proper, but your advice worked, thanks again.
I'm a noob and I wiped my phone before trying recovery! DERP. Not sure what to do next.
So... I need a little help. I've been looking around and havent been able to find a situation like mine. I've got a completely wiped/factory reset HTC Inspire 4g. SD card is good and reformatted to fat32. Heres the basics. When I press the power button I get 3 vibrate and orange light, when I press volume down and power I get 5 vibrates and green light. When I plug phone in with usb (to computer or charger) I get clockworkmod recovery v5.0.2.7. I am able to toggle through options, all works fine.
This is where I need help and I get easily confused. What do I do to get this phone back to stock settings? I've tried putting the stock pd98img.zip file onto the sd card, then installing via clockwork recovery. When I do this, I get failed installation EVERY time. I've also tried connecting through ace hack kit on my lap top and running the stock settings flash. Whenever it resets the phone it does the 3 vibrates/orange light and stops.
I would really appreciate someone with a little more experience to walk me through what I need to do to recover.
Update: When I try to download the zip from the sd card via clockworkmod I get the error E:Signature Verification Failed. I'm not sure what this means.
If someone can solve my problem I'll buy them lunch or coffee! Some kind of gift card to your favorite place? I'd really like my android back!

You only flash pd98 files from fast boot not from CWM recovery. Boot in bootloader and it will find it
I am going to come off as the biggest noob here, but its got to be done. How do you boot in bootloader?
EDIT: Alright. So Bootloader is Volume down and power. My phone won't boot into bootloader. Phone vibrate 5 times and green led comes on. Screen stays black the whole time.

Ok i dont use CWM but there maybe an option in there to reboot into bootloader. Try holding volume up and power. Could be confusing devices on that though

Nah, no other combo's work for getting into bootloader or rebooting it. From what I've read on other forums, if I can't get into bootloader, I'm bricked. Do you think since the phone is wiped back to factory settings that HTC would replace it under the warranty?
Since you can boot into recovery, adb should still work. Enter recovery then plug in your phone to PC and run adb reboot bootloader
Have you tried reflashing a rom in recovery aswell?

If you are booting into CWM your not back to factory. As stated above you can use adb to boot into bootloader
Just making sure I'm doing this right as its the first time I've ever use adb commands to me phone. Do I need to downloand Android SDK to write commands to the phone?
Okay. I've learned how to use the adb commands. That was cool. haha. So I popped the battery out, then back in to get to CWM. With phone connected to computer I tried adb reboot bootloader. My phone rebooted itself, but it did the 3 vibrates with a flashing orange LED. Adb reboot recovery does the same thing.
For being in recovery. Are you guys talking about the volume down power combination, when I do this and connect the phone to the pc, the pc doesn't detect the phone. So there is no abd commands/flashing roms to it in recovery.

OK looks like your bootloader is messed up. Go to the ace hack kit thread. There you will find a link foe the IRC chat room. Go there and tell them what you did. They maybe able to help you.
Hey everyone. So everything was good for the last couple of days as I was on JellyBAM 6.6.0 evita. This morning after charging my phone I go to open it, view some websites etc. Phone reboots by itself, goes to lockscreen. I try unlocking my lockscreen everything good for about 10 seconds. Try to open facebook up, and boom phone goes black and will not turn on. I know for a fact that is 100% charged as when I woke up I checked the battery as I usually do to see if it charged or not.
I am pretty sure I am on Hboot 1.09 or less as I bought the phone close to the release date. Any thoughts because its weird how I cant turn even turn it on or have a LED light show up when it charges.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Ok somehow my phone just turned on by itself and I took the opportunity to go into TWRP. Tried restoring but to a previous backup. Became stuck in boot screen. Went back into twrp tried to wipe the system and factory reset but somehow it says failed and that its not able to mount storage or anything. All of my data is gone now for some reason and it says no OS is installed. Do I have to RUU back again?
have you tried getting into bootloader by holding volume down and power? or a hard reset by holding power button for like 30 seconds

Yeah I forgot to mention I have tried getting into bootloader using the volume down + power process along with holding the power button. Nothing is working.
This phone has well-known power management issues. Sometimes the battery stats get corrupted and the phone thinks the battery is dead when it isn't. Unfortunately, this sometimes results in a brick.
Plug into your PC and see what pops up in Device Manager. If you get QHUSB_DLOAD, you've been bricked. However, this may be fixable since you're on 1.09.

Additionally, under device manager it comes up as unknown. I am going to install the ADB drivers for Windows 8 and see if that does anything

Well, wiping /system and factory reset means the OS is erased. Could be the sdcard got corrupted. You'll need to reformat it.
Good news is you're not bricked; its just a matter of getting the software in order.

Ok so should I follow like this.
Download HTC drivers
Download 1.71 RUU
Done?
Because right now my computer does not recognize my phone. Installing the htc sync and the drivers hasnt made my computer (windows 8) to recognize my phone.

Did you try formatting in twrp? Ruu'ing might be overkill here. Can adb see the phone even if windows can't?

I had a similar problem last night with a "missing" SDcard in TWRP. Thankfully, I found a utility that you can run through fastboot that will restore the SDcard without ruu.
HOWEVER...that utility and website link that I found it on are on my computer at home...and I'm not at home
Although, I did find the utility through a google search.
Let me know if you find it. If not - I'll find the link when I get home.

I dont know if this matters but I factory resetted from bootloader in the beginning after I was able to turn on my phone. Maybe everything got wiped because I did that?
Does anyone know how I can get windows to recognize my phone because I have looked at several guides on google and nothing is working for me.

Ok, im pretty sure you can recover from that, especially since when i bricked mine it made an abnormal sound when i connected the usb and not the normal boobooop. Try ADB rebooting into bootloader mode or plug it into the USB Cable and Hold the Power + UP + DOWN at the same time and it should still push you into recovery mode. Also download the stock RUU, some of them have a bat you can run and itll do most of the work all you need to do is get into bootloader mode.

I didnt mean download mode since im still thinking about the S3, but i mean bootloader. But first off i assume you already have ADB and the Android SDK. So go into your android folder -> platform tools -> hold shift and right click in while your in platform tools and click Open Command Window here and once the window is open type in ADB Reboot Bootloader and see what it does. (i assume that while flashing a rom you had debugging enabled." BUT, also go here and download a RUU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2119610 , (id use AT&T USA and the 1.85.502.3 RUU, just click right under OTA and to the right you'll see "DOWNLOAD" and run that EXE to see if it works)

You would be incorrect. QHSUSB_DLOAD mode after flashing IceColdJelly meant fo the ENDEAVORU is a death sentence. The device is in fact hard bricked, meaning the only fix is sending the phone for JTAG. The exception, is if the phone was originally on hboot 1.09 (somewhat unlikely at this point, unless the phone was pretty old).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1974101
Couple mistakes were made here that led to this fatal condition:
1) Can't say this enough: DO NOT install mods from random websites. As clearly demonstrated here, these other random websites don't clearly delineate between the EVITA and ENDEAVORU, and this can brick your phone. Stick to the proper device forum on XDA.
2) Why did the person try to install a version of ICJ from 8 months ago? Unless you are doing it for a specific reason, installing obsolete firmware is kinda asking for problems, as well.

If you originally rooted (or later RUUed) to 2.20 firmware or later, than no. If you were on 1.85 or 1.73 firmware, you can try the unbricking thread and/or JET tool. Unbricking thread is linked in the ICJ "warning" thread I posted above. JET tool can be found in the Development forum.
Ok I finally got this tablet rooted using some chinese oneclick root tool worked great do to it was the only kit that was able to root it and i installed supersu apk to replace to chinese version worked and i went to update supersu and hit the twrp (not knowing what it was at the tim stupid right i know lol) and now it is stuck in the twrp/cwm bootloop and i cant get into recovery mode when i try it says updating img blah blah and restarts back into the bootloop. It is running 4.1.1 JB and has a micro sd card slot.There is a pic in the atachment because i dont know how to upload it to this post but it is just a pic no "extras" are included no viruses maleware ect just a pic

What happened = A few years ago 2013 i think a got this tablet then i learned about rooting, roms, and such so i spent the next year or two trying to root the tablet. I finally got it rooted with a chinese root program and all was well (i don't remember the name of the program) then there was a update for su and i pressed the twrp/cwm mode on accident (I think I was talking to someone at the time) and now it does what is shown in the image 1 it is on some boot loop. When I try to access the hboot menu it does what is shown in these images 2&3. Also my tablet has a MicroSD card slot and the battery can not be taken out. the regular bootloop picture is image file 1 that is what it looks like when it does its continuous bootloop and P.S. the tablet turns off and on automatically during the bootloop. To try and fix it i have let it do its bootloop for hours on end turn it on and off tried looking for a compatible rom (to no avail) and let the battery completely die that is about it.

Okay. Just a few more questions.
Does your tablet boot into recovery (picture 1) even if you try to boot normally? (fastboot maybe)
Can you boot into anything else other than recovery? (try different button combinations)
Does ADB recognise your tablet when it's in recovery mode? (if you don't know about this, just post your computer OS and if you have ADB/Fastboot drivers installed on your PC)
If the anwser the the first question is no:
Does ADB recognise the device while it's in the bootloop.

sorry, i forgot to clarify the hboot. it pops up the "words" or whatever then automatically reboots there is no way to select options or keep the device on so i cant use fastboot unless there is a way i dont know of. P.S. the tablet restarts automatically so it is on for like 25 maybe 30 seconds then shuts off then turns back on and repeats till the battery is dead. My thought originally to fix it was to get a rom put it on the sdcard and see if that works but the manufacture does not supply the rom for my model only the p771a. and the only physical buttons are the home, power, the pinhole reset button, the volume and such buttons are virtual on the screen when it is fully on. And picture 1 i dont fully know what that screen symbol is the hboot one is similar but not that but yes it does but to picture 1 nomadder what i do even if i try to get to hboot menu. Sorry if this is a "little" scattered having explaining it. If it would help i can make a video and rar it and upload it here.

1. Download fixcache.bat.zip on your computer. Extract cachefix.bat from the file.
2. Run it. It should say just "Waiting for device..."
3. Now reset your tablet with the reset button and QUICKLY plug it into the computer and wait a few minutes.
Now try to get to that text in picture 1 and tell me what happends.
Also post the text you see on the computer from the file I sent you.
Tell me if

Umm, you said there is a reset button on the tablet so pressing that would probably reset it.
The error you are getting is because adb is not installed on your PC. Use this simple adb installer to instal adb. When installing just press yes to everything. MAKE SURE THE PHONE IS PLUGGED IN THE COMPUTER WHILE INSTALLING AND THAT IT'S ON!
Now run the file again.

If you want to know what is happening:
You are in what's called a recovery bootloop. It's when you can't get out of the recovery. What is happening in this case is that Superuser app tried to install it's binaries via recovery. Because some people don't know how to install binaries manually, the app puts a file on the cache partition so the recovery automaticly installs the zip upon booting. Now, this would be good so you don't mess up your device, but the zip file it's trying to install is faulty so it just breaks the device.
My attept at fixing this is to delete the /cache/recovery folder so it doesn't just install the file, and instead boots into a working recovery.

30 seconds is more than enough. Especally with an automated script like the one I sent you.
The first thing we have to do to fix your tablet is to establish a working ADB connection. Use the ADB installer i sent you. And look up on how to install Google USB driver for ADB.
