Tried to do a battery rest as per the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755903
I think i did something wrong.
Phone is currently stuck on a screen with a picture of a phone with a red triangle with an exclamation mark.
What do i do?
You're in recovery, press vol up and power and you get a small menu where you can select to apply the clockwordmod update.zip to reset your battery stats (assuming you're rooted)
Thanks so much. I thought something went horribly wrong.
My phone wasnt rooted, so i guess i shouldnt have even tried to reset the battery stats.
Thanks for the help.

Help please
Hi,
A long time ago, I believe I updated my HTC Hero with a custom ROM.
I currently have
- 2.1-update1
- SW: 3.32.405.2
I just sold the phone and tried to bring it back to factory settings.
But I can't.
It won't re-initialize and I can't even delete my GMAIL account.
In short, I don't care which version is installed, I just want the phone to be updated with an official ROM, so that its new owner can turn it on and configure it as if it was knew.
The phone is NOT rooted.
If anyone has a hint, I will consider it my XMas present.
Thanks a lot!

Either wipe it from recovery or use a RUU http://www.shipped-roms.com/downloa...io_63.18.55.06P_6.35.15.11_release_signed.exe
Look it up, it's easy.

Mine is doing this too,
I tried rooting during the downgrade process (Because I had gingerbread) next thing that happened was when it would start up, it would take a very long time for the white htc screen to show up, and would vibrate (constantly) for 2 full minutes. the white htc screen would then show "quietly brilliant" under the logo and boot. but now it's going to the phone with red exclamation mark in a triangle. Phone is not rooted, hit power and volume up, went to update zip, told me invalid...
what's next?
*edit*
p.s. htc inspire 4g.
also before black screen w/ triangle I ran hack-ACE to put stock ruu back.
restarted again, and now it's usuable, but still does the looooong boot up.
No touch Screen Sensation
Hi forum I am in desperate need of some help. I have an HTC Sensation with a non responsive screen. There was a software update I believe on the forum that claims to resolve this problem. I want to try an upgrade or something hoping my screen issue can be resolved. My problem is how can I upgrade a stock ICS firmware without the use of the touch screen or touch buttons. Or even root the phone from the boot screen.
Second question can I load my external sd card in another Android phone like to load the software on it and then insert it into the Sensation and then linstall it from the boot screen?
Thanks for your help
Sensation HTC with version 2.3.5 locked
OK I just bought an Incredible a few days ago and tried my luck at rooting. I did a lot of research before hand and I am usually pretty good with this kind of stuff but obviously not good enough. I have tried everything I can find online but nothing seems to work properly. My phone came with stock 2.2 and I rooted with unrevoked 3. The rooting actually worked fine, there is s-off and I have the super user app, I have even been able to download the tethering app and use it. The main problem is that the Clockworkmod recovery screen does not pop up. No matter what I do, even right after the rooting process, my incredible goes to the HTC screen that is all white then a black bar or two appear on it, followed by a complete black screen with two white edges going down the sides. No green text nothing and then it just boots up normally. I have tried rooting on a mac, Windows xp (via boot camp), on a windows 7 computer. Nothing changes. I just wanna know is there something simple that I am just not doing properly, maybe some sort of setting that needs to get adjusted, I have selected charge only, remember this, and usb debugging. Please let me know if it is the fact that it is stock 2.2 and I have to wait until a new version of unrevoked comes out or am I doing something wrong. The phone works fine and everything for the time being but I want to be able to overclock, undervolt, remove bloatware, etc. I greatly appreciate any help that someone could give me. I am to the point of trying to find someone local and paying them, but it seems like no one nearby even knows how to do this or just has an iphone and can jailbreak that...lol....
So you ran unrevoked 3.21 first, which roots your phone and also installs clockworkmod. And then you ran unrevoked forever, which enables s-off. Correct?
How are you getting to recovery screen? Since you have superuser access, download the app Quickboot, which can reboot into recovery. If you flash everything right, and unrevoked had no issues, recovery should definitely be on there.
Download rom manager, titanium backup, and setcpu from market. Use TI to do a batch backup, use rom manager to boot into recovery. You will have to flash a different kernel to get anything out of setcpu, you could just pick a rom that has a modified kernel.

To get to the recover screen from a powered off stand point:
1. Phone powered off
2. hold down vol -(volume down) and Power button at the same time until hboot comes up.
3. hit the vol -(volume down) once or until Recovery is selected and press the power button once.
4. Should show splash screen of HTC Incredible and then should be in ClockworkMod Recovery.
To get to recovery while phone is running you can download couple apps that will do it. Rom Manager will which you can reboot into Clockword Recovery and many more things. As mentioned before Quickboot will work also.
You say you just got it, is this one of the new Incredibles with an SLCD screen (instead of AMOLED)? They are the ones with "VW3" at the end of the sku. If so from what I have read in the last few days it seems clockworkmod recovery does not support these yet. There are a few posts on this forum about this, try searching "slcd incredible clockworkmod" or some variations. The general idea seems to be that amon ra recovery is working on these phones and that you gotta use that instead of clockworkmod for now.
I have one of these on order and should be able to mess with it this week ...
So I rooted my phone today. I installed the HBOOT drivers fine, and I do have root permissions. The only problem is that Clockwork is not installed correctly..when I boot into recovery, I get two white lines going down the side, with black in the middle. When I tell ROMManager to boot into recovery, I still just get a black screen.
I have a 2.2 droid incredible, with the SCLD.
It is not yet activated(stupid verizon.) but that should not make a difference.
Stock 2.2 sense UI, with Root (obv.)
Thanks for any help in advance!
I believe that you need the correct drivers for your SLCD, Clockwork thinks you have the AMOLED and not the SLCD.

From what I understand ClockworkMod Recovery (used by defalt by unrevoked) doesn't work with SLCD Incs, search the forum for SLCD recovery.
Edit: This should help.

Guys I'm having serious issues trying to install usb hboot drivers on Windows OS to get my phone rooted
I believe I have a amoled screen phone if that helps
I un-installed HTC sync
But I.get and error windows could not locate the drives for your device
Could anyone help out......
and what OS did you the root your phone ?

Hey, so are you following the steps they give you..exactly? It shouldn't be hard at all. Download the HOOT drivers, and unzipped them to a place where you'll remember (i put mine in my documents). Then if you're running 7, hit start, then just type in device manager. After that, plug your phone in, and hold down volume down and power. In device manager (back on your computer) it should say, unknown device. Android 1.0
Then right click, hit update driver. When it opens, hit broese. Then select the folder that toy extracted. Hit okay, or instAll.

Hi
I have got a problem since this morning and I really need some help. Everything was always working fine, I have a rooted HTC desire, running GingerVillain 1.3.
Yesterday I did an update to GingerVillain 1.4 through gingervillain updater.
The update was ok.This morning I take my phone, and try to reboot it.
And now, it is stuck in a bootloop on the green HTC logo.
I can access to hboot (0.80), but when I try to access to recovery to flash another ROM, I have got the green htc logo, then a black screen.
On this black screen, if I use the power button to wak up the screen, then I can see just one line saying : clockworkmod recovery v2.5.1.0. But I can't see any menu on the recovery.
So I can't boot my desire, I can't flash something else, I am kinda stuck...
I tried removing my SD card, and it is the same thing.
Thanks in advance for your help...
Did you check the feedback about GibgerVillain's update?
Yes I did. It seems that I am the only one with this kind of problem.

That means you did something wrong. Maybe the copy of the download was foul. Do you have S-ON or S-OFF?
Well, I don't know what I could have done wrong, but I have found a solution.
I went into fastboot, plug in to my PC, then launch a flash with an original ROM (RUU).
After that, a little Unrevoked to get root access and install a recovery, and i started again from draft.
Anyway, thanks for your help.
I'm glad you figured it out.
Earlier today, I ran the updated 15/10/11 version of the ace hack kit. Like it was suggested, I read through the manual then I re-read it and re-read it again. As suggested, I disabled / uninstalled all security software on my pc and the other superfluous services. Ran the executable drivers file then I set the phone to charge only and usb debugging was ticked.
I then ran the hack-ace.cmd file as administrator and let the program do it's thing.
It appeared to have completed without any glitches in the suggested 6 minutes.
However, on the phone, all was not well. Since running this, the screen remains blank. When I power on, I get the HTC logo and then it disappears / disintegrates into a blank screen and nothing happens.
The only reason I ran this was to get rid of the irritating apps that I never use but have to Kill every day.
Can anyone help to overcome this problem? This was a replacement handset that I had to fight with my insurance company to get only for this to happen.
I am literaly at my wits end.
Thanks

Yes this is the best thing to do. Something must have corrupted your stock ROM. If AAHK completed properly, then you should have ClockworkMod recovery installed.
The first thing I did was install 4EXT recovery but thats not necessary, that was just a personal choice.
So these are the steps you should take:
1: Download a new ROM and put it on your SD card in a convenient place (I recommend the RCMIX32 Runny 3.1 ROM)
2: Remove the battery and reinsert the battery
3: Hold down the volume down button and then hold down the power button. You will get to a white screen with some green robots on the bottom. This is the bootloader screen. You will have to wait a bit for it to finish scanning the SD card. It will tell you when it is finished
4: Use the volume buttons to select recovery and press the power button to select it
5: After a few seconds the recovery environment will appear
6: Go to the wipe menu. Wipe data, cache and dalvik cache (and system if you have the option. I havent used Clockworkmod in a while so I cant really remember what options you have there)
7: Go a few menu's back and select Install zip from SD card
8: Select the zip file
9: Press yes on the confirmation screen
10: When it is finished, click reboot now. It might be on the menu back
This will install a new ROM and it should work properly. If you have any problems along the way just say and we will help to the best of our ability
Thanks for the responses.
I don't think ClockworkMod is installed as there are no options available when I select recovery. It just reboots the device back to the HTC splash screen which as mentioned then fades / deteriorates to a black screen. I had tried the Android HD Revolution rom but no difference.
One thing I did yesterday in my panic was to select 'Factory reset'. Will this have usb debugging setting?
Finally, when I connect to a pc, it doesn't see it. Is this because it's still set on charge only mode?
I'm probably my own worst enemy
If you finally press "Factory reset" you will reset USB debugging, then you can't root your phone using this tools kit. Try to reinstall the stock rom.
If you didn't root your DHD. Phone may still under warranty.
Hi Guys
I've managed to get this back up and running again.
After a lot of playing about with various file downloads last night, I finally managed to get my pc to see the phone. After that, I just downloaded a stock rom and installed it.
After this fright, I am reluctantly going to stick with this and not bother with rooting / custom roms.
Anyway, many thanks for all your responses, I really appreciate the time you took to helpo me out.
This forum absolutely rocks.
Hi,
I've just downloaded, I read the 'effen' manual and then ran ace-hack, it seems to have worked except I can't see clockwork mod recovery?
I can see superuser and ROMmanager, is it still ok to try and download and flash a custom ROM?
---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------
Well to confirm my noob status I have now found that clockwork mod recovery is indeed installed (I assume you're not meant to be able to see it as an app as it sits at a lower level).
I downloaded the CM7 ROM, so have booted up into recovery mode, have wiped/formatted as instructed but when I choose the zip file from SD card it appears to start then aborts installation...help!!!!

Did you check the MD5 Checksum of the .zip before you copied it to your SD Card? as it might is some way have got corrupted.
Here is a link to what I always use before I copy anything to my SD Card or install on my OS System:- MD5 Check 2.1.
Take Care
TheQuest
Thanks!
I'm all sorted (I think, fingers crossed).
It was principally because of the mac unzipping (Safari preferences not checked), this was the original and prime fault.
That caused me to doubt my partitions on the SD card (google is sometimes your enemy) which I altered.
So what then happened was CM7 installed but upon reboot looped continuously on the android skateboarding screen.
I finally resorted to formatting the SD Card, reapplying the CM7 zip and the google zips and so far it looks good.
Of course I (me and me alone) has stuffed up all the user data I had on the SD card. I might try to recover some photos but stuff like contacts I can regenerate no major loss there.
Thanks for replying!!
CM7 - the experience thus far
Well its 72 hours since I took the plunge!
Initially it looked odd and felt flakey, the Market refused to download 80% of the apps I tried. I resolved this (not sure if it was the right way) by going into recovery and clearing the cache 2-3 times and eventually downloaded all of my old apps.
Some apps cause frequent force-closes, I assume because they've not been updated for Gingerbread? Thats a very minor irritant, I can easily live without these apps anyway.
Battery life hasn't noticeably altered yet but I suppose I have been constantly been tinkering, playing with settings, trying wifi (seems a little less sensitive to signals) and gauging how the radio is working - I seem to get HSPDA a lot less and resort to 3G more than I previously did?
So, done it, like it despite some minor reservations - now what, is there anything else I can do to improve the experience?
I must add one thing this has shown me - I really really know very little about what goes on under the hood. Despite 20+ years experience in CIS this is a very different world and all credit to those who have developed CM7!!
Please help if you can.. please
Hello!!
I am desperately seeking some guidance. Please.
So, I used to have a HTC Inspire 4G and in June I rooted it successfully.. then installed Cyanogenmod 7 etc.. everything worked great. I unfortunately lost the phone and because of insurance got a new one.
When I rooted the first time I used the old school method that was in the XDA forum.. ADB..etc.. but today... with the new replacement..
I downloaded Advance ace hack kit 29102011 (ahhk 29102011.zip) which after reading all the stuff I thought would be just a quicker way to get rooted. I used the same PC that I used before.
This time, unfortunately I am getting a black screen, right after the HTC splash screen shows up.. it fades to black.
I can get to the "Hboot" screen but removing the battery, then restarting by holding the power and the down vol button.
Tried Factory reset.. still fades to back
Tried Recovery .. still fades to back
The device will not be recognized on my laptop when connected to USB..
Am I stuck? Do I have any options?
I should have done what I did before.. but am at a loss right now.. will you please help me.
Please.
Thanks a million in advance for your responses.
