[Q] Dead phone, stuck. - Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I'm a happy user of cyanogenmod and have loved it since the day I got it. But as I updated to CM 7.1.0 Stable mod, I've had problems with my wireless. Whenever I try to turn it on, it responds with "Error" and doesn't turn on. I can't see any wireless networks either.
I tried something from cyanogenmods forum, but with no luck, it said I had to "Format system". As I tried to "Format system", it restarted and it's stuck at the "HTC" White screen. It shows the white screen everytime I try to start it. I'm able to get into HBOOT and recovery, but I'm unsure what to do. Have I really broken my phone?
Anything I can do to get it working again? I'd love if anybody could help me here, thank you.
I'm not very good at this, so I would be nice if somebody could guide me through this.

Ok, In your possition I bet you panic a little bit? Don't worry and stay calm
First of all, i don't know what other requirements you need other than to get the rom back into your phone ie swap partition, ext partition etc, so this help is to ONLY get a rom back into your formatted phone.
You said you can boot in recovery, this is a sure sign phone is not broken, do you have clockwork mod recovery?
If you have clockwork mod still in root folder of your sdcard, your halfway to fixing your issue, if no clockwork mod, search on XDA and get the clockwork mod recovery, it'll probably be called fake-flash and it will be a zip file, might be best to get version 5.0.2.0.
Next you will need a rom, download any one you like, be it cyanogen, Blayo's froyo, ogo's gingerbread etc.
If you've already got clockwork mod on your sdcard then best to take the sdcard out, put it in a card reader attached to the computer, copy the rom zip file to the sdcard, put it back in to the phone, load up clockwork mod via recovery on your phone then flash the rom from sdcard...
if no clockwork mod, then copy both clockwork and the rom to the sdcard clockwork must be named update.zip and in the root of the sdcard, put sdcard back in your phone then follow the same flashing procedure as before. You may need to wipe data and davlik cache before flashing.
I'm pretty new to android rooting & flashing and i've had a few scares myself, the one most important thing i've discovered is to have clockwork mod recovery in the root of the sdcard, and so long as you can boot into that, you pretty much can't go wrong, unless your S-OFF, then an inexperianced user can do damage.
The other thing of importance is to either have backups (done via clockwork mod) or a fresh rom to flash on the sdcard, backups are better though because that keep all your apps and stuff intact
Good Luck

OH F*** YEAH! It started now! ranger4740, I love you!
Thanks a lot for the help!

Clockwork Mod Recovery on Fascinate Fails

I have a SF running on DI01. It is rooted using Z4. I installed Rom Manager and then flashed latest Clockwork Mod Recovery. When I reboot the phone into recovery, and then select update.zip to get into Clockwork, I am met with the following:
E: failed to verify whole-life signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
When I originally got this phone this worked fine. The issues started AFTER I did a factory reset. I did the factory reset because I was unsatisfied how the phoen operated after doing a recovery with Titanium Backup and wanted to start fresh again.
I made sure to delete all traces of every file and folder prior, I even used a brand new formatted SD card and I am still getting this problem. I have been through 2 factory resets trying to get the recovery to work.
Anyone with any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

You cant flash clockwork recovery from the phone it has to be pushed in odin then you can flash it in rom manager
The thread is in the development section
Do a little searching around and you ll find all the info you need
Yet another reason not to use z4 root as you learn nothing about your phone
And really it aint hard to do things the" right" way
Actually it sounds like you did read.
My best guess is you went wrong when you installed the SD card and have the wrong update.zip on it, but it's just as likely you need to prime CWM again in odin. You'll be fine!
I do agree that the guides should give manual roots, not one clicks. The slow way is pretty quick:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9443125
I don't think rooting was your issue in this case though. I think you may have missed how clockwork installs and works. It is persisting but not permanent.
In brief, you pave the way with the cwm odin flash, then use rom manager to place a current version of CWM recovery on your SD card in the form of update.zip, then 'install' that every time you need to run CWM.

Soba - Once I repushed from Odin it came back. Scratching my head a little but hey it's back. I used Z4 on this phone because I got caught by Verizon when I manually rooted the first model which went bellyup after having it for a week. I wanted to make sure I could quickly get rid of the root if I needed to go back into the store.
To the other responder, sorry for not being specifically "clear".
I've been tinkering with 6 different phones from this one to two Motos and 3 different HTC's. All the methods are beginning to run together sometimes.
I appreciate the assist and I thank you both.

So I'm getting stuck at the same place. I'm new, so could you explain how to pave the way with Odin? I think I understand the concept, but I'm looking for a detailed list of flashing things (such as the update.zip from cwm) in Odin to my phone.
Thank you for any input!

I cannot access recovery anymore

Tuesday night I loaded CM7, and then the Market wouldn't update my apps so I decided I would restore BAMF 1.5. After doing so, the Market just gave me "Fails" trying to update, and I could not access recovery, as I was going to do a complete wipe and reflash. Most of Wednesday, an extremely helpful & knowledgable member, Mattgyver83, tried diligently to help me rectify the situation, but to no avail. We tried to Fastboot, tried flash_image, tried fix permissions...shoot, I practically wore out adb..anyway, I ended up reverting back to stock and unrooted. I used jcase's method to revert back to stock, and that was painless, and successful. I decided last night to try rooting again, thinking a fresh root would solve my issue of not being able to access recovery. Root was successful, but I still cannot access recovery, through rom manager, or through bootloader. When I attempt it my Tbolt goes to white HTC screen, and stays there. All functions of my phone now work, and all aspects of root work, except I cannot flash anything. Rom manager shows I have clockwork recovery, but I just can't get to it.
Sorry for the long ramble. If anyone has had this issue, or if anyone knows a fix, I would appreciate it. Otherwise, I wait for Gingerbread.
Thanks
Happened to me with CM7 builds. For some reason they were erasing the recovery. Just have to reflash the recovery in Rom Manager and you'll be all set in the future.
do what i do pull batt leave out for a min, then put the batt back in and connect usb right away.

I'm stabbing in the dark at this, but this did work for me with my Droid...
I had a similar issue with my Droid. Someone recommended that I flash recovery multiple times before trying to reboot. The comments were basically that you need to flash recovery 3-5x until the flashing process is a mere few short seconds. Evidently that is an indication that the flash has occurred correctly.
Ie. Flash recovery and wait until the confirmation pop-up/message only takes a few seconds to pop up. If the message takes longer than 5 seconds or so, re-flash recovery and repeat until the confirmation comes up quickly.
This sounded retarded to me, but I was at the end of my rope so I tried it. It worked like a charm.

Thanks, but that didn't work. I think something in my os got lost when I restored BAMF from CM7.
Yea I spent a good few hours yesterday trying to help Orio out and we attempted a ton of things to try and fix the recovery issue, this post should offer a bit more insight to the methods used, this is running off memory;
adb reboot recovery failed
Reinstall latest Rom Manager apk and Flash CWM
flash latest rom manager via fastboot (CWM only)
(fastboot flash recovery /sdcard/recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.5.img)
**did not do fastboot erase recovery first**
"return to stock safely and properly" XDAthread by jcase
return to stock image [RUU], reroot, try again
try to boot into recovery via hboot
manually installed fix_permissions.sh script and busybox on rooted stock, ran.. didnt fix
tried to see if flash_image method would work, didn't
All of the above have failed and we basically tried almost all combinations. Not once would this phone get back into recovery, even after flashing the appropriate RUUs which include either stock android or CWM recovery. The only thing we have not currently attempted which might be the last thing left is to do is manually install the nandroid.sh script and do an advanced restore of the recovery image only from a nandroid backup on SD. I would rather not go down this method as it could have an undesired result, I have done it to restore a G1 back in the day but not 100% if its gonna work on a tbolt. Thankfully his phone boots, and we can get into hboot, but yea.. pretend recovery just doesnt exist at all...
Curious if anyone has any knowledge above what we have already tried.

I recall the same thing and its a good thought however that was mostly a generic error due to a CWM update and CM6 (I think) but either way flashing an RUU should override this shortcoming and im pretty sure that issue was worked out in CWM as well.
Not to be rude, but I don't think this question belongs in the development section.

do you still have the P zip file for the radio (baseband) on your SD card? if you do....try to delete it...then hold power and volume down button down....then see if you can get into recovery....
probably not going to work...but it is worth a try......

Thanks, but no, I deleted that after loading it. I actually reverted back to stock/unrooted last night and rerooted and the problem still remains. It's quite strange.
maybe i missed it if someone suggested this but what about flashing an older version of CWM?

That is what I was going to suggest. In ROM Manager at the very bottom try and flash an older version.

SUCCESS !!!
I fixed it !
Apparently, when I loaded up cm7, files showed up about the same time on my sdcard in clockworkmod download file. I deleted those files, and reflashed clockworkmod in rom manager, (which this time took like 3 - 4 minutes), and rebooted into recovery and it worked...did it again, just in case it was a fluke and it worked.
All is well now...the planets are realigned !!!
Thanks everyone for your ideas and especially thanks to mattgyver83 who helped me for something like 4 hours yesterday. Exceptional kindness !!
mods...you can close this thread.
GREAT NEWS!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!
THANKS FOR REPORTING BACK!
This may help out other members with the same problem!!
now go ahead and start playing with your T-BOLT again!
That's a very odd solution. My first two things to try would have been:
1) fastboot:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery C:\some\local\path\recovery.img
You can't, well, probably shouldn't, flash a recovery from the /sdcard. When in fastboot mode I don't think the sdcard is even mounted. Either way, I think fastboot needs the img file on the local file system.
2) Create a PG05IMG.zip file with the recovery.img file in it, and flash that through HBOOT. Although this should have been done in some form or fashion when you downgraded or re-rooted, so YMMV.

[Q] Clockworkmod recovery problem...

Hi, stupid question here from a relative noob....
I have a Cincinnati Bell Vibrant, that I recently flashed CM7 on (after using Rom Manager to backup up my stock rom). Liked it, but found it too battery-intensive, so I booted into clockworkmod recovery and attempted to restore the backup of my stock rom. It failed on flashing the boot image, and now my phone is stuck on the Vibrant screen, and won't boot. None of the hardware combinations to get into recovery mode are working, but I can get it into download mode. Before I screw things up further, what is the best way to go from here to get the backup restored, or is it even possible at this point?
Thanks

This doesn't sound too bad. Basically you want to Odin back to stock. Then reflash the rom you were on, then you can reboot back into recovery and restore your backup. If voodoo was enabled on your backup make sure voodoo is enabled again before restoring(it might work either way, but I'm not sure). When I've done this, I restore a prerooted 2.2 stock Rom without changing the bootloaders, but almost any official stock rom will also work. I'm on the go, so I don't have a link handy, but post back if needed and I will point you to the odin package I use. Good luck.
I also am having some issues with Clockworld recovery. The problem i am having is that when doing a nandriod backup this is the error i am recieving
"E:cant mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 (or @)
Cant mount /mnt/sdcard
any suggestions on whats going on?

Are you sure the sdcard is good? If so then I would follow the same steps listed above, that way you know your CWR is good.

yes it is good because i can see all the videos, pics i have saved in it. Also i put the new ROM on my internal sd card and its there so sd card is def good. What could be causing the problem?
To the op, I would use Odin, no real worries there.
To the other guy with sdcard issue, try moving all files to your PC, format your sdcard, reboot, move files back, flash cwr in ROM mgr, backup work? Move critical files back from PC.

Thanks...that's exactly what I did, except the backup would never quite "take." It completely loaded and cycled through the boot process, but I ended up on a boot-restore loop. So now I've Odin-ed back to stock with the closest build I could find to my stock (which I don't think is out there yet - FROYO.UVJL6.ULTIMOBILE - do you know anywhere to find it?), rooted, and am searching for a good, stable, battery-friendly mod once again.

^ what rom are you on, if one?
You could always ODIN, and use my option b cwr in the noob guide. I just tested making a backup using trigger 8/22 and know there are no issues. Not really sure whats up on your end. I will say though, I've emailed koush several times that there is an issue with cwr on the vibrant from rom manager, for some it won't even flash.

[Q] Some out of the way n00b questions.

Hi All,
Just got my S2 last week. Planning to move to CM7 this weekend. I have rooted the device and am on the Codeworkx kernel. I had a few questions:
1. Is there a problem while flashing via Odin if Debugging is not enabled (I think it is more of a OS feature which we haven't entered when in download mode, so shouldn't matter according to me.) ? I tried to disable debugging, and then went to download mode and Odin did detect the phone, but I did not try to flash anything so if anyone has tried that, your input is more than welcome.
2. The reason for above question is: What if I completely brick my phone (with debugging disabled) and no ROM .zip in the sd storage, how do I get the phone up and running ? I understand that I can flash kernels via Odin, but is it true for ROMs as well ?
3. What's the issue with ROM manager ? Is it recommended to stay away from it for S2 ? I have tried to do a Nandroid backup and it always takes me to the Android robot with a exclamation mark screen. Then I have to reboot and the backup magically restarts and completes successfully. Most people have suggested to use CWM recovery directly, so not sure if I should get rid of the ROM manager altogether.
That should be all for now. I have a jig ready by the way, so am not that worried about the process and plan to do a fair bit of reading before proceeding, however, the answers to above queries would be really great !
Thanks in advance,
Ish
I can answer some of your doubts.
I don't know if you can flash via odin in case you don't have the usb debuggin enabled so I'm not going to say anything about it.
Anyway if something happens to your phone and you dont have any ROM on your sd card but you have CWM recovery installed (which is almost everytime the case) then in CWM there is a mount usb stoage option. With it you can easily transfer .zip ROM files to flash, or even a nandroid backup you saved in your PC.
ABout ROM manager, this is what I suggest you. The first time you flash CM7 don't use ROM Manager (I even tried using it with the codeworkx kernel with no luck). Now, once you are in CM7 it works perfectly and it's really helpful to flash nightlies withouth wiping data (I flash half the nightlies as they are realeased). So the first time you flash CM7 wipe everything (do a nandroid backup first), even wipe /system, /data, cache partition, dalvik cache, so you don't have any problems. THen install zip from sd card and when it finish install the zip file again (just two installs in a row no wiping in beween, trust me, the first time I tried I didn't do that and couldn't boot the phone).
Hope it helps.
EDIT: You can flash stock ROM via odin, there is a thread by infratech were this is explained and you have a list of downloable stock ROMS you can flash with Odin, these are region and carrier specific and you probably will get the one for your carrier. I found the stock ROM for my carrier and I'm from chile, you shouldn't have any problems with that. Well, good luck, CM7 is by far the best ROM I've flashed.
Oh another thing, go for the latest nightly since the battery life is incredibly improved over the RC (or was it stable?) version.
Thanks !

Awesome ! This is exactly what I was looking for. I haven't dived into all the options of the CWM, so didn't know that this feature existed.
Also, many thanks for explaining most of the things in a single concise post, it was very helpful. I'll have to check the ROM flash with Odin, so I will search for that thread and have a go through it later today.
Once I get a hang of CM7, I'll go in for the nightlies as well. And yes, I did read about the CM7 guys revert the status to an RC because of the bugs reported, so will give it a try once I definitely know what I'm getting into .
Thanks again,

[Q] Noob Issues

Yes I am new to rooting droids, but I am not illiterate in this subject. However, I am pregnant, and over emotional and possibly losing my mind because I can't get my phone to work. (Sounds like a noob issue right?!)
I have a droid 2, latest update, blahblah.
I rooted it, no problem, got good instructions from here, downloaded ROM manager, and Bootstrap. I downloaded Liquid Dream ROM. Flashed Clockwork, and rebooted. ROM seemed to download onto the device fine, finished rebooting and now it plays the Liquid Dream animation on start up over and over. Currently I am in reboot mode but I am stuck, I don't know where to go from here (because I am a noob, I know). So I'm hope full that someone with a lot more knowledge on this can help me out, so I don't totally lose my mind. Thanks for your time future person who helps me! (I hope)
did you wipe all the data/cache and davlik prior to installing a new rom. When ever changing roms, you need to clear out the old data.
go into fastboot, clear data/cache and under advance clear dalvik.
try that.

Well, something probably didn´t upload ok. So, what you have to do know is: make sure the .zip file in the sdcard is not corrupted. In order to make sure of that, you can try to download it again (you will need an sdcard reader). Then, when you have already the .zip file in the sdcard, boot into recovery. From boot loop the best way is to boot the phone pressing power + volumen down, then choose recovery from the hboot menu. Once you are in the CWM recovery menu, do a wipe data / factory reset. wipe cache partion and format system.
When that is done, you are able to flash the zip file from install .zip from sdcard choice. That should work and get your cell back to life.
It might be Clockwork. There have been some issues with it. If none of the above suggestions work, try getting Amon Ra.
If ClockWorkMod does not work you can try flashing the 4EXT recovery...works smoothly at least in my Inspire 4G.
