Hello everyone!
I have run into problems with my hero since I flashed Drizzy's hero rom.
My sd card reader is no longer functioning and hence I am locked into drizzy's rom without any possibility of any kind of sd card use.
The sd card can't be read from cyanogens recovery even.
Is there any way to put a new rom on the phone without access to the sd card?
(I have root if that helps)
Thanks in advance,
Hampan
Can I use the fastboot update command without an sd-card available to the phone?
you can push (=upload) with adb (command is: adb push [local] [remote]) a file to the sdcard (just connect your phone via usb to computer)
example:
update.zip is here: C:\update.zip
then do:
adb push C:\update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
then it will upload the file (about 5-10 minutes).. ready to flash
Thank you for your reply , no I can't make adb connect to the phone.
Only fastboot works, and even if adb was working I couldn't possibly make it push the update to the sdcard since the phone can't see the sd card at all.
and you are even not able to access the sdcard via cyanogen recovery AND adb shell??
No exactly, the sd card can't be reached from ANYTHING , adb shell won't connect although fastboot does, and i can use fastboot commands.
I tried using the "fastboot update update.zip" with modacos rom but got the message:
archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'
archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'
error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt
I'm thinking maybe one can flash the device without putting anything on sd via "fastboot update" .. can anyone confirm?
simply restore your nandroid backup that im sure you did.
./fastboot flash system system.img
./fastboot flash userdata data.img
./fastboot flash boot boot.img
./fastboot reboot
Thanks for your reply, yes I did make a nandroid backup and copied it to my pc
However, as it stands now I can only reach the phone from the computer with fastboot, usb is not recognized in windows and sd card is not functioning (even in cyanogen fastboot).
So, if I use my old stock nandroid backup and somehow the sd and usb is still not functioning, would there be a possibility that I would be stuck with the old slow rom forever?
Thanks for any help!

Yup, now I tried .. doesn't work
C:\android-sdk-windows-1.5_r3\tools>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (2560 KB)... OKAY
writing 'boot'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
I'm sh*t out of luck aren't I?
maybe the remaining option is to send it to htc... :-( but that will cost money cuz you lost the garanty
Yup, that, sadly -Is my conclusion as well.
Anyway, the phone works as usual , just no SD and no updates.
Since I have no warranty I might just wait until a new android version is released for Hero.
Thank you all for replying and trying to help me.
stupid question, but did you check to see if it is the micro sd that went bad, not the reader? you don't need to embarrass yourself by responding, I just hope it helps if that is what it was.
I have the same problems and follow these threads:

Can't you try to 'update' (restore) it with the htc RUU .exe
?
not totally sure since i dont have a hero myself, but i think this might work...

Long story here. My desire has decided to become sd bricked
Hboot version is 0.93
Software is 2.29.405.5
Phone is not routed and is s-on.
I can use adb and fastboot but I cant do anything that requires the sd card. Can someone please help me in getting the sd card working again please.

did you already triy the "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" command in fastboot mode?
Yes it comes back with
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

You need to have s off to use that command. Follow the root and s off guides in the development forum then try again.
Sent from my Motorola Startac running Atari 2600 software!
I've ran unrevoked and it says I am rooted and titanium backup runs.
I tried alpharev to get s off and it doesn't appear to work, it cant find my phone.
John
no you don't need s-off.
i think you are in the wrong directory. The fastboot.exe is in the folder tools,
so you have to change the directory in cmd and then "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0".
(also fastboot mode on your desire)
You tried reformatting the SD using "SD Formatter"?
Also, which ROM were you running? Some roms dont seem to boot (stuck on HTC logo screen) if theres probs with the SD card format - especially if your sd-ext is ext 4.
Can you boot into recovery? If so and you arent bothered about losing phone data, format your SD (using SDFormatter), stick something like LeeDroid 2.3d on and flash it (with full wipe).
Maybe this'll help:

I had to restore back to stock and I do not use windows. I was looking for threads but all of them needed windows. So, I am making a tutorial on how to go back to stock on Win/Mac/Linux.
Note - I used my netbook which runs arch linux to complete these steps. I have not tried any other os but it should work.
Requirements On all systems -
Usb drivers (HTC sync provides them on windows. They are preinstalled on linux/mac)
Fastboot
RUU for your device
On linux/mac you need wine. Get wine from your distro on linux and for mac you need to build it manually. Afaik there a few programmes to provide prebuilt wine on mac.
If you don't have wine, get the rom.zip for your RUU from someone here or a windows machine.

Some other forum(forgot its name) for telling me about a command (fastboot oem rebootRUU)
Let's start
Download the ruu for your device from ruu.androidfiles.org (gsm one v = primoU, cdma = primoC and dual sim = primoDS)
Extract the rom.zip
Linux - Use elukas' script
Mac - get the rom.zip from somewhere. Sorry.
Windows - Run the ruu. Search for temporary folder and copy the rom.zip to somewhere safe.
Extract the rom.zip. We need to flash recovery and kernel(boot_signed.img) from this folder.
Reboot phone to bootloader. Connect it to your system. Make sure fastboot detects the phone.
For recovery
Code:
sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
For kernel
Code:
sudo fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
Code:
sudo fastboot erase cache
Now we flash the Ruu
Code:
sudo fastboot oem rebootRUU
You may get an error related to hboot. Flash the zip again.
I hope it works for you. If you're on windows, you don't need to type sudo before fastboot.
This worked well, did it in litterally 4 minutes :good:
Is there anything I should add to it?
Umm getting the Ruu was a bit confusing, but i figured it out. Primo....
Thanks, I'll add that the gsm version is primou ,cdma is primoc and primods is dual sim.

The zip varies from device to device, so you need to download the RUU for your device and then extract the rom.zip from it.
Hi.. thank you for the guide..
actually I am still collecting information in case I need to flash back the stock rom,
but the thing that I want to ask is, do you know where I can get the stock kernel?
Is it also extracted from the windows ruu?
thanks in advance for your reply

Not seen that method. Don't know if that works.
You can try to install 4ext recovery (requires s-off), it has a usb unbrick option which I've heard to be good
That recovery is also very good at partitioning your sdcard for more app space

download the recovery.img directly, it's in the first post
flash it through fastboot (read the fastboot bit here)
backup your sd card, then reboot into recovery from bootloader, try usb unbrick. also partition your sd card from there, and copy your backup back to sd

hmm not absolutely sure then
you sure you installed all drivers properly? you may also need to enable usb debugging (not sure)
if that doesn't work, try renaming the recovery img to 'PB99IMG.zip', place it on sd card, and reboot into bootloader. it should find the file and ask if you want to flash it.

It's not that simple to make a PB99IMG.zip. You need to do more stuff. Jmcclue had a zip version of 4ext recovery.
it is actually very easy, all u need is "recovery.img" & "android-info.txt" files (u can get the android-info.txt file from one of the Alpharev PB99IMG hboots) then simply zip the 2 files naming it PB99IMG. Anyway 4ext recovery PB99IMG in my sig.

hah thought one or both of you might come along if i made a mistake
anyway either of you know why EpicSmurf22 is getting a "FAILED (remote: image update error)" ? i've never seen that while using fastboot..
i'm just hoping after all of this, recovery can be flashed and solve the original sd card mount problem..
dunno really, try the PB99IMG works most of the time. if not then extract the zip file and try flash recovery.img via fastboot (the recovery.img u have could be corrupt), if still not then try a different sdcard or could be ur phones memory is screwed up. got corrupt some how.
My DHD will not boot up. I can put it into recovery mode, but am not able to navigate the menu with my volume buttons or select options with the power button.
This occurred after an (apparently failed) attempt to flash the 4ext recovery.img onto my phone.
My phone has an unlocked bootloader, S-ON, and not rooted, if that helps.
I appreciate any help with my issue in either successfully flashing the recovery.img or getting my phone to work in any way. Thanks!

probably the misc partition is fked, or the chip's gone bad.I'd try reflashing HBOOT by putting it manually via the sdcard, naming it PD98IMG.zip and putting the sdcard back.I'd wait out on another opinion though.

Remove it from the phone, insert it into a cardreader of some sort, transfer it to the sdcard renaming it to PD98IMG.zip,putting the file in the root of the sdcard, no folders, putting the card back into the phone, booting to Hboot, pressing the power button just once to start the procedure.If you can't press any of the buttons in HBOOT too, then your phone is effed.
again, don't try this before someone else gives an opinion on this matter.

Hello everyone
So I have a m8 and converted it to the GPE edition. I changed my CID & MID and installed 4.4.4. My phone was rooted and I installed custom recoveries and went back to the stock recovery.. Here is what went wrong.
Today the update 5.0.1 came, when I tried to install it the update was failing and said my Version is not the right one. So I found out, that I flashed an old recovery and because of that it could not install it. Ok, downloaded the original OTA of 4.4.4 extracted the recovery.img and flashed that one. Now the verification check went trough..
It startet installing and after 5 minutes the update failed! Saying something like, it could not create symlinks on the system... I tried again, and now it stops with this error:
fileexist(): check the existence of /system/lib/libgoogle_recognizer_jni_1.so failed, error no such file or directory() installation aborted...
My system partition is broken now and i cannot start any system anymore...
I would like to save my data or install anything that my phone is working again, but I want to keep my data.. My phone is encrypted! :/ I tried with custom recoveries, but they apparently don't support disk encryption on the m8...
I think I cannot flash 4.4.4 with RUU as this would also delete the data... adb backup only works if the system is up, because the shell command tells me that a system dialog will appear and ask me for my password....
Anybody has any suggestion how to save my data?
Thanks!
should be in Q&A mate
I have requiested the mods to move this
So first things first. You are not bricked, you are just stuck. Bricked means your device cannot boot, cannot turn on, cannot access any bootloaders or recovery.
You messed something up and it is failing to boot, it isnt bricked.
Second, running disk encryption on rooted devices is especially dangerous for these scenarios. Disk encryption attempts to prevent many of the things running roms, custom recoveries and such put on the device.
Now, I cannot recall if a full GPE version can do this or not, but from Fastboot you should be able to flash just the system partition. But being you are encrypted it may fail to access your old data. The command for that would be:
Fastboot flash system system.img (if you were able to obtain a system.img)
Again that works on Nexus devices, I cant recall if the GPE fastboot accepts it as well.
Wish you well, but honestly I would expect to lose your data. The reason the update failed the second time was because you are Rooted. 5.0+ has a new OTA system where any changes to the system partition can/will fail the OTA.

First, your phone isnt bricked, its not bricked as long as you can access HBOOT, second, why would you encrypt your phone? uhg... I dont know what to tell you, try RUUing to stock, but dont expect to keep your data...

You can only flash boot and recovery individually, you would have to put system.img and android-info.txt in a zip and flash in ruu mode
UNBELIEVABLE!
I could restore the system with dd... Just copied the system.img from Android 4.4.4 to the block device.. now the phone is booting up and i can see my data... uffff.. :victory:
so now i will do a backup and then go on...
Solution
If someone should encounter the same issue, this is what I have done to fix it:
I didn't want to lose my data, so I did not reinstall the RUU.. I couldn't get my data with ADB backup, because you need a system display to do it. And I also couldn't find any recovery which supported device encryption for the m8.. So I thought to backup my data partition with 'dd' to an external SD card and then if necessary I would reinstall the full system with RUU..
Code:
$ cat /fstab.qcom #to find the needed partitions
$ dd if=</dev/block/DATA-DEVICE> of=/external-sd/backup.bin
Now I knew I had a backup and was on the safe side. So I wanted to try to rewrite the system partition with the system.img from 4.4.4 GPE RUU. But fastboot flash didn't work. I always got this error message:
Code:
$ fastboot flash system system.img
...
erasing 'system'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.010s
So what the hell, I used 'dd' also for this... :
Code:
$ cat /fstab.qcom #again to find the needed partitions
$ dd if=/external-sd/system.img of=</dev/block/SYSTEM-DEVICE>
And this actually worked, my m8 booted up with Android 4.4.4. First thing I did when Android booted was a full Android backup with adb.. To be safe to have my data back, because I didn't really know how to extract my encrypted data from the bin file I've created before... Then I just installed the update to 5.0.1 and this time it worked...
