uh oh. what did I do ? - Hero, G2 Touch Android Development

hey everyone, troubles.....
went from a modaco custom rom 3.1 to kagudroid 1.1. it didn't take for some reason and it shows the "kagudroid" boot logo, then the lock screen, then kagudroid, and repeat. like an infinite loop. I used NANDroid and wiped it before I applied kagudroid. what did i do wrong ?

Just try it again?

should i shut down, wipe, and reapply update ?
or shut down, reapply update ?
or ?

do a full wipe & re-flash custom rom

is there a difference between a "full wipe" and the "wipe" function on the boot screen ?

Wipe ext on your sd and reflash.

Not just those wipe data/dalvik cache.

Tried wiping dalvik cache. Wouldn't let me. Told me to use ad b

wouldn't let me wipe ext /SD either. told me to use adb.
what is adb >?

try "normal" wipe (the first option) and then reinstall the rom.

if the above method unable to solve your problem, backup all your wanted data to your pc. re create a new ext & do a fresh install.

INstall villain rom but don't initializing the phone.

sorry for my bad english i'm brazilan. i need help.
I'm install the rom Villain 3.3 in my htc hero but my phone stopped in android logo and don't pass for the htc sense. i'm waiting for several minutes and not happening.
i wipe after the flash rom. i don't know what happening.
please i'm new with this phone its my first flashing rom.
Thx for all!!
sd card
Sounds like its most likely your SD card. Backup everything off it onto computer, then format it, get rid of all partitions for eg. App2sd just to be safe, then put update file on SD card again, full phone wipe, dalvik cache wipe, and you should be ok. Mess about with app2sd once your bit more experienced.

Are you new to flashing custom roms? the first boot can take a while fyi
do a full wipe and wipe the dalvik cache before you flash the 3.3 rom
it must be that you didnt flash it properly, the 3.3 rom boots without problems on the hero
wipe/factory reset
wipe dalvik
wipe/factory rest
off
boot recovery
flash
reboot
setup
reboot
done!

Nope... I'm not new to flashing ROM. Almost flash to the level where I need to in an Anonymous Flash-oholics group.
I did do a full wipe and wipe the dalvik cache before I flashed the 3.3 rom.
I also re-flashed, tryed wipeing before and after, wiped the dalvik cache before and after...
The reason I do not have a ext part on my SD is, that I do not install so many applications, that I run out of space. And the speed of the internal mem is alot faster.
For keeping my apps between flashs, I find titanium back to be the best solution.
Is a ext part need to run the 3.3? I ran almost all the other villain rom version, without a ext part.

Hey,
I also have problems installing 3.3 ROM. I have a running 3.2 VillainROM but 3.3 will just not install! I did factory/ rest wipe + Davlik wipe but stuck @ bootscreen again! I do have a ext3 (or 2) partition which I did not flash, but the installing of 3.2 worked fine so I guess its a problem with 3.3...

Weird problem after unlocking NAND...

Followed it step by step (it worked!), but now when I restore the Nandroid backup I made my phone just cycles through the Sprint/4G boot screen continuously. I've wiped data, cache, and Dalvik/cache, and nothing. I restored to an earlier Nadroid backup (from like a month ago) and that one boots fine. Any ideas? Is my newest Nandroid backup just corrupt or something?
If this doesn't work I think I'll just flash to a brand new ROM, but gosh I'd like to backup my SMS messages lol
Thanks!
did you wipe?
I wiped:
Data/Factory Reset
Cache
Dalvik-cache
I didn't do SD:ext partition though...
Am I supposed to? Will it erase my SD card?

Don't wipe that, that's just for using Apps2sd
You need to wipe the user data. I dont remember how get there off the top of my head but it is where nandroid is.
I found it. I am using clockworkmod recovery, but you go to "wipe data factory reset" and you will see a bunch of no's and then a "yes -- delete all user data" select that and reboot. This should fix your problem.

I also had this problem once, I rebooted into recovery and flashed the newest radio and no more boot. Not sure if it was a fluke but you might try it if you cant get anything esle to work.

Did you Wipe userdata before flashing?
hi,
gives few details more plz
Yes, i did wipe factory data, ext cache and dalvik cache. Then i installed Radio_32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08 and then the ROM. And before all that i created the ext3 partition with rom manager, and installed the alignment-ext3.

I would partition your sd-card again following this guide:
http://leedroid.com/bravo-wiki/partitioning-your-sd-card-ready-for-a2sd
After this is finished, wipe all userdata (full wipe) and flash leedroid rom again.
No warranty for any damage!
Only install the alignment ext3 if you HAVE problems, it's painfully mis-documented in the official thread. Same thing happened to me. Do the following:
Format SD card, create correct partitions using gparted or Partition Manager.
Reboot into recovery by pushing Vol Down + Power, Recovery.
Wipe Cache, Data, D-cache.
Flash rom, reboot.
Don't flash the alignment patch.
Should be fine
ya..exactly..repartition the card.then just flash the rom..dont flash ext3 alignment..same prob happenend with me too..don worry!!

Do you know if you have the updated radio (v1.00.00.0928)? If so, then you need to know that there are only a select few ROMs and kernels that will work with the updated radio. If you also have the updated hboot (v1.57, I believe), then you're kinda stuck (like me). If it's older than that, then you can try to do the RUU process to revert back to the old radio.
Good luck!

This problem generally comes due to mismatch of kernel(boot.img or bootloader) and ROM. Check weather you are using correct kernel image or not.
U said u are wiping everything that's fine. But are you flashing a boot.img before installing custom ROM.??

Also, you can try twrp 2.8.0.1 (the one that I use).
Head up to recovery -> Wipe -> Advanced wipe
From there you can chose what to wipe (except boot, this s**t cannot be wiped).
And if this doesnt help you, just remove your SD card, go to recovery -> wipe -> factory reset (wipes everything, not sure if wiping SD card data, but it's better to remove it first) and this should do your work.
It's always working for me, even when the ROM developer says "use the recommended recovery"
