prior to me to start rooting..
I was using the unlocker.com site and got to step 12 of it.
The whole process of rooting goes just fine until I get to the part were I have to put my phone in recovery mode..
im suppose to hit Power and home at the sametime..
Im suppose to get the screen with all the wrinting and it says what choices u have to make.
But my phone shows only the explamation mark with the phone symbal..
I dont know what Im doing wrong... Please help Ive dont this process for 2 days and still nothing. my phone is stuck on
rc29 1.0 and it sucks..
I also tried a diffrent way of rooting and it also failed due to the fact that I coulnt connect to
telnet server from my phone Someone please help. I want to get it running to 2.3 firmware

I think i bricked it...

so i thought it'd be a easy thing to do but i guess not.
first i couldn't get RaphaelHardSPL-Unsigned_1_90_3.zip to work so i used SSPLManual to get it to go, now no matter what i do it gets to 0% and the pocket pc locks up. im using a HTC Touch Pro with Sprint. the device says Upgrade ROM code error please try again. ms activesync says that it cannot recognize the device or something, and the hardspl program says error 262. ive been searching and reading for an hour and a half and cant figure it out. i really need my device to work by like, tomorrow, so please help me out guys :\
Try going to bootloader mode and flashing the stock ROM that came with it.
i held down the power and volume down buttons and reset it but it just goes to the tri colored screen everytime. there has to be something im just completely missing. to reset to stock rom i would just put the rom on a memory card or how ever the website instructions say to do it and put it in the phone and restart or how does that work
Exactly (if you want to flash the memory card way). Or you can simply connect the device through activesync when in bootloader and flash the stock ROM (download it if you don't already have it).

Isn't the Sprint CDMA? The GSM HardSPL won't work. From the bootloader screen flash it with an OEM Sprint ROM. Good luck

stuck at flashing adriod after downgrading to rc29

long story short. i bought a locked g1. did the factory reset. dont have data but have a sim card. i was trying to do the activation over wifi.
when i press enter type reboot and press enter nothing happens.
every time i downgrade to rc29 everything goes smoothly, until its time to reset it after its complete. I restart it and it always get stuck at the screen with the andriod and it says andriod beside it flashing from time to time.
the only way around this is to next install cupcake which brings me back to the activations screen. but i still cant reboot by typing in reboot
its not taking any commands so i cant never get adb to work.
from my searches I'm the only that has this problem right after downgrading to rc29
any info/ help would be greatly appreciated
Do you mean the screen that says "touch the android to continue"? You might want to do what it says.
Oh, and you might want to also do what this FORUM says... post your questions in the QUESTIONS section.
It appears to me that there is nothing wrong except that you aren't willing to follow the instructions.

I only found one other person that was having this problem after loading dreaing.nbh and no solution was posted other than he might need to upgrade to rc33

You mean you found one other person who couldn't follow directions. You won't get anywhere by sassing lbcoder.
Start by posting the question in the right subforum, then follow the directions on the CM wiki.
Ive tried everything. I followed the directions to the T. Its not rocket science. I done everything over 10 times and still hangs at the flashing andriod boot screen. Never goes to the activation screen. I can do the <enter>reboot<enter> and that works. also was able to sucessfully connect to adb for the first. when i tried it at this screen. i get an error when trying to pull up the wifi settings cause my phone itsnt functioning properly.
anybody???
Maybe try something else like RC7. When I was rooting my G1 I followed a tutorial which was recommending RC7 and RC29 to do telnet stuff. RC7 wasn't working for me so I tried RC29 and everything was OK. Maybe it's the same for you, but in reversed order .
i well try it asap. the only reason i havent tried it yet cause im in the u.s. i didnt think i could use it.
got a not allowed. its funny cause when i first tried it i think the image was messed up. it said not found or something. try it a couple times didnt work stopped and let it power up normal and it worked. i was excited. i was able to register it over wifi and everything.. turned it off swiped sim cards ect. then it just got stuck back on the flashing andriod screen. wtf? so im starting all over again it hangs again at that screen as usual
i would try flashing RC33 first...
I would try posting this in the proper forum. It seems to me you asked a question, however you posted in the Android Development forum, see where I'm going with this?

[q] help please! Bricked my device trying to get s-on incredible s

I was trying to put my phone back to S-ON after trying all the roms, i used the method of installing an unroot method i found on the web on my phone through terminal emulator.
Now my phone won't turn on, i've taken out the battery, left it for a bit and put it back in, and still won't work.
It';s definetly bricked, but i was thinking, if carphonewarehouse can't fix it, will someone let me know if they know anyways that i can fix it please.
It still charges just that it wont turn on no matter what i try.
THANKS
can you get in recovery mode?

[Q] Is the phone bricked?????

I tried to upgrade my brothers samsung galaxy gio with a leaked version of it's 2.3.4 upgrade via "Odin".It kinda got stuck in the process and following the guide for it I removed the battery (it said to remove the battery if it stuck at a process for more than 10 minutes). After that when I tried to power it up it got stuck with an image of a phone and a pc connected with dots and a caution mark in between. For extra info recovery mode doesn't open but the download mode does. And I have tried to upgrade it a few times but gets stuck at the process named "ididb download"or something like that.
Is the phone bricked?????? Plz reply quick.
Hi,
Don't worry: as long as you can turn the phone on you should be OK, it's only a soft brick . Have you tried going in download mode again, and reflashed another ROM or even the one you attempted? Got evering right? OPS? Evering you must tick? Re-read the whole tutorial cause generally people mess up because they don't pay enough attention ^^
P.S. At least a million threads exist for this, you obviously haven't looked far before posting..

[Q] Hard bricked phone to the point of no return...Even kies wont recognize...help!!

Hey guys so my phones kernel and stuff was slightly messed up I know this because wifi didn't always work and it wouldn't work at certain places and if I reset the phones settings or factory the wifi would show up. I then thought hey I need wifi so let me put a custom mod on it. I have rooted my phone easy but never put a custom mod.. I still dont know what it does or what a custom recovery is or whatever. I tried odin and it said failed a bunch of times. I then started trying to use apps like goo manager and busy box and such and had no idea what i was doing other than following instructions blindly and I ended up using an app that was glitched I believe and when ever I started the phone it went into recovery mode. Then I stopped using the phone for a quite a while and one of my friends said he could look at it and determined that it is screwed to the point of no return. So I thought why not go for one last swing at it did some more Youtbing and did another tutorial another tarp or md5 file or whatever it is. I now have that screen which says connect to Kies for emergency firmware recovery or something. I can still access download mode and such but the main problem is 1. odin is still not working 2. Kies is now not recognizing my S4 keeps telling me it doesnt recognize it. I have a Samsung S4 verizon build number is 2g6 I believe I know the ending is 6. Its curruntly on 4.4.2 kit kat.
TLDR: The phone says that i need to hook it up to kies for emergency firmare something but kies wont recognize my phone and I cant do a hard reset and When I flash with Odin it always says Fail when it gets to the boot part
Thanks so much guys you dont know how much any help would be. Please respond this is all I will be doing all day so I can give you all extra info asap.
