As the title says I accidentally formatted everything on the phone so now when ever I turn it on it goes straight to boot loader, I can occasionally access the recovery menu.
I have no idea what to do =/
Run your original RUU or PB99IMG.zip
There's many threads about doing this..

Worked for me.
RICK
Not gonna lie, I have no idea what any of them are
Did you take a note of your original rom details?
Was it branded?
Which country etc....
Not really got much to go on at the moment.....

I know it's from England
Network?
Really need more info....
If you can't supply that, create a goldcard and flash the WWE RUU. there's many threads on here to tell you how to do that.

I don't get it???
if you can get to recovery why don't you just flash a rom? unless you don't have a custom recovery.
How did you 'accidentally' erase everything out of curiosity?
This also crossed my mind.
As well as 'is it stolen?'.....

What are you even doing on this forum? This is not a helpdesk for people screwing up who don't read and don't want to read. Yes send it back to Orange, just don't be suprised if they charge you for it.
There has been a lot of information given and I don't think many people will help you if you are to lazy to find out what everything means. One last tip, google.
hey guys, sorry if this has already been answered. are there any recovery files for the G2 so i can flash it to stock out of the box? my friend gave me her phone cuz her ex put all kinds of spyware and i wanted to do a clean install of the OS. im used to moto phones so there are usually .sbf/.fxz files to do this with. idk if these kind of files exist for this phone. any info would help. thanks in advance

Just go into recovery, wipe everything and do a factory reset.

Flashing a recovery won't do what you're wanting; recovery is used to do what you want.

Sorry if I didn't word myself correctly. When I say flash a recovery file I mean an sbf/fxz type of file. Like moto phones have sbf/fxz files if you brick your phone. That's what I'm looking for. Id like to flash the OS so its a clean phone. However if stock recovery will do this then I'll take your word for it.

No need to reflash the OS, just boot into recovery, wipe everything and reset to factory (or however its worded) and it'll be like turning it on for the first time.
Anything that was installed via the Market will get reinstalled once she associates her phone with her account but I'm assuming any spyware he installed wasn't via the Market

sweet. thank you much my friend
After trying several different ROMs (mainly Sense 1.9 up to 3.5) and 3 different memory cards I am still having reliability problems with my Desire. The main problem is now and again I press the wake button and nothing. The power button doesnt even work I have to take the battery out and reset.
I also get a fair bit of lag, especially with incoming calls, even after having a play with Daemon Controller settings.
I can just about live with it but as I am likely to want to sell the phone soon i was wondering if anyone could recommend the most solid ROM. Preferably one that doesn't use an EXT3/4 partition as it could possibly be running apps from this that's causing the problem. I'm not bothered about Sense either.
I am currently running AceSMod007 v42, Recovery 4EXT v2.2.7 RC6, Stock HBoot.
The easier it is to install the better and even if its vanilla android I'm not bothered. I just don't want any comebacks when I sell it as the phone has caused me enough headaches.
ps Is a new battery likely to help or is that clutching at straws?
Put it back to stock like it used to be. That will eliminate or at least lessen the possibility of buyer comebacks caused by buggy custom roms. If the buyer wants it rooted, he/she should do it themselves.
How do you do that exactly?

Reflash the Froyo RUU which you can pick up at www.shippedroms.com, or the Gingerbread RUU which you can find at www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads.
Good luck!

I haven't done it personally but I believe you can flash it over as long as the phone is on stock hboot which I think it is. If you are s-off, you may need to flash a downgrader from alpharev. (Can anyone confirm this is required for stock hboot? I had the impression it's only for cm7r2 and oxygen hboots.)
You'll lose root and s-off (if you s-offed your device before). Make sure you chose the right RUU for your phone.

Only r2 hboots.
I think I might have to give it a try as my phone is very unreliable now as it keeps just switching off and won't reset unless I pull the battery. Happens about once a day.
Do I flash it through recovery as usual?
Also, if you want a solid rom, you can't get much more solid than Cyanogenmod. It's actually more stable than the stock rom for my part. Another option is MIUI, but the iPhone-like interface might be a bother.
Thanks, do you mean CyanogenMod-7 for Desire GSM V7.0.3 rom as the download link was broken when I checked?

You're selling the phone. Stick to your original plan.

Possibly not for another 6-8 weeks so I don't fancy returning to Stock and still having problems and having to mess about getting it S-Off and rooted again.
And to be fair if it wasn't randomly switching itself off I might consider hanging on to it longer as when it works properly its a pretty decent phone, I just cant live with the unreliablility.
So has anyone got a link for the CM Rom?

If this is the way it turns out, I think you should start considering RMA.

Consult Bortak's guide on that, I'm not writing it over again here.
RMA is a warranty claim.

Hi. I asked my friend that is new to android:
to root his android phone n flash his phone so he can become somewhat of a modder:
however he has just told me that he has got into a bootloop after flashing the cyan theme on a stock HTC ONE X bootloader unlocked.(international)
He had not made a backup & wants the least complicated method
Do you have a simple solution so he can boot his phone into his phone?
Edit: I have looked on google but cannot find the right solution for his situation.

Hold the power button down til it turns black and the lights blink then hold volume down to boot into bootloader.
Then select recovery and reflash his Rom. Or push the stock files that got edited using adb.

If recovery doesn't boot tell him to go into bootloader -> fastboot and then use 'fastboot erase cache'.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yes he can get into recovery, i kinda feel responsible cause i told him to flash something.
Anyways I've searched on google n i can't find any clear instructions on erasing fasboot cache
Why did you tell him to flash something he knew nothing about? Surely you advised him to read up on everything first, download the right RUU as backup, etc?

Just grab a Rom and flash it in recovery that will fix it. Don't make it complicated. No need for anything else he only changed a few files like systemui and framework.res, once they get replaced again with the new Rom it will boot as normal.

Hey all,
Is there anyone out there who is on T-Mobile UK and has a stock nandroid backup for the following version (1.29.110.1), I've had no luck with the RUU's and I really need to go back to full stock asap because I'm selling the phone. I
heres the info for my phone:
Currently running a custom rom (Android Revolution HD 7.2.1)
CID: T-MOB005
HBOOT: 0.96.0000
RADIO: 1.1204.103.14
Why don't you reset it?
Open it in bootloader, and to factory reset

Doesn't factory reset just wipe your data and settings? I basically just want to have the default kernel and Rom on my phone that was on there when I purchased the phone..factory reset doesn't do that.
Have you tried searching, I believe there are quite a few available in the forums. Exactly what went wrong with the RUU? I have a stock nandroid backup on my phone, unfortunaly I wont be home until Thursday, and where I'm at the internet is really crap.

I've looked all over the place but can't find a thing, the reason why the RUU's provided in the rom collection forum don't work is because they are of a lower version and my hboot version is higher than those provided in the lower versions, and because s-off hasn't been achieved on the HTC one x yet I can't downgrade my hboot version therefore I can't downgrade my firmware. I'm stuck to either getting a ruu version that's the same as the firmware version I'm running currently or a newer version which match my cid. As of now there's no such ruu available so therefore I'm stuck to going back to stock via the nandroid backup method.
Well, if it's not a hurry I can probably upload my nandroid backup by friday. Are you sure it will work with another ones backup?

Yes it will work but only if firstly were both on the same network (I.e T-Mobile UK) and you haven't changed the name of the folder which contains the backup if that folder name is changed its pretty much useless. Thanks a bunch if you do share it, you've saved me a lot of hassle
Ah, then it probably wont work, my HOX is locked to 3Sweden. It sounds like yours is unlocked, isn't it?
