Good morning,
yesterday I received a notification about an update to my phone. I downloaded it as per the instructions (1.84.61.2) and set about installing it.
The phone restarts, the HTC screen comes on and then a black screen with the Installing Icon on (red triangle with ! in it). For a short period there is a status bar showing the progression but that then disappears (half way through), leaving the installing icon on its own. The phone then sits this way for hours before I have to remove the battery and restart.
History:
Previously, I had clockworkmod recovery (CWM) installed. When a previous update came OTA I screwed up the phone and had to reinstall the Orange stock rom from the beginning to get it working. This seems to have removed CWM. I had also set Radio to S-OFF and have changed that back to S-ON now. Furthermore, I have UNrooted the phone to leave it in what should be the original start state.
I HAVE removed some of the orange apps that came with the phone (Peep, Stocks, Twitter and some others)
Does anyone know why the phone is hanging and not installing the new Firmware?
many thanks in advance,
AC

Hello, i have a new P3300. The first time i opened it it started installing some basic stuff/programs and then worked quite good. Then i turned it off and when i turned it on again it shows the first splash screen with the htc logo, shows IPL and SPL versions on the left top side (like it should do) and then it instantly turns off. I have tried installing the official WM6 ROM again and again but after the installation finishes the problem remains. Also, when in confirmation dialog for the ROM to be installed or not when it shows the old and the new version, the old is completely blanc.
P.S.: Something else, when i connect it to charger (or USB cable) the orange light keeps going on and off about every 30 seconds.
Any help would be highly appreciated guys.
Send it back to your vendor for warranty...
Cheers
After many tries i managed to install some older official ROM but again after the initial screen calibration and the other stuff some customizations started installing and when PDA rebooted the problem appeared again. But tomorrow I'm getting it to service (and getting my Qtek 8310 back which by the way got a repair although unlocked ).
I was originally running the rooted sense 2.2 rom and I attempted to switch to Leedroid using Rom Manager's "Install from SD Card". That went fine until it crashed at the end of the install process in recovery... Then it wouldn't boot (stuck at white background with green HTC). I attempted to redo the r5 root flash as it was the only other rom I had and I could still get into fastboot, but now (I'm assuming) it's stuck on the radio update part of the flash in step1... The fastboot flash zip command completed with an OKAY, but it hasn't yet rebooted - all I have is a black screen with the HTC logo and a full green progress bar.
I know unplugging it while doing a radio update is a big no-no, so what should I do? It's been sitting there like that for the last 20 minutes.
Edit: Well, after waiting for a while I bit the bullet and just unplugged it... And it works fine. No idea why it froze, though...
NOOB here. Looking for some serious help.
OK. back for round 2. Tried to install the froyo rom, followed instructions and when using system recovery,it said installing; stood that way for 2 1/2 hrs than battery died ( when started battery was full ) when I tried to restart ( had a backup battery full power ready ) it'll show me the M sign for motorola, it'll show the blur right next to it, than goes to the next screen showing the tmobile stuff, when the pink box becomes a full pink square, it reboots and doesitall over again. Tried doing a soft and hard reset, when I say ok apply update.zip, it says can't pass verification.
Also, when I plug the phone to charge, shows me a black battery with a question mark inside of it.
Is there an update.zip that I can use? As far as I know I'm still stock.
What to do, this is already my second phone, first one died when doing a backup. Don't know if I'm still good on warranty anymore. So, can I fix it or am i screwed???
Which rom you are trying to flash？ In this case, you should flash a "boot only" sbf.
its update-cm-6.3.5.3-MilestoneXT720-KANG-signed
but i think its not for this phon !!

Hi all,
Desperately need some help to stop me geting a whack off the wife
First off the phone is an O2 branded desire with an SLCD screen.
I rooted it using the unrevoked method and installed leedroid. That all went ok
Now sometimes the phone switches itself off and the wife wants it put back to stock, no problem i said.
So i dont need a goldcard ( i think) as the phone is stll O2 branded.
I downloaded the stock O2 RUU:
RUU_Brav2_UK_1.20.207.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.0
2_2_release_124865.exe...
Connected the phone to the computer via usb cable and clicked on the RUU exe and followed the onscreen instructions.
PC said everything was successful and i clicked on "finish"
Now, the screen remained black so i left it for 5 mins, still black.
I removed and re-inserted the battery and switched on, i get the vibration and tje screen still remains black
Can anyone help me out as if you knew my wife you wouldn't want to get her angry

Try the FroYo one:

Are you able to boot into the recovery menu? (volume up/down (don't remember which) + powerkey when phone is off).
If so, grab clockwordmod recovery as an update.zip, then you can launch update.zip (which will load clockworkmod) from which point you can of course flash new roms, etc etc.
If not, I think there are other threads in this forum about gaining USB/ADB access, from which you can then load clockworkmod and do the same.
Hi Sparksalot,
I cannot get into anything as the screen is just black.
When i press the power button after reinserting the battery i get the initial vibration so i presume it is doing something just that i cannot see it as the screen stays black.
I will continue to read threads but i suppose if i cannot see what the phone is doing i wil not be able to fix it

Bernie

In need of help!
I have a rooted Galaxy Nexus. I have been having many problems since it was rooted (will not connect to Google I think...? WiFi signal grey), but if possible I'd like to keep it rooted. I used Nexus root toolkit and SuperSU seemed to mess everything up. For a while after I uninstalled SuperSU it worked OK. Then later they WiFi signal went gray again so I factory reset this morning. Internet seemed to work (even though it was still gray) so I went about finding replacements for Google apps online because my Google apps didn't work(Google play, YouTube, etc). About an hour later suddenly my screen froze then my phone crashed. When I attempted to restart it stayed on the blue, green, red, yellow, X for 2hrs. I decided to pull the battery and put it in boot loader. Instead of what boot loader normally says it instead said "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!" When I tried to use the volume keys to change the "Start" sign it did nothing. My only option (I think) was to press the power/sleep button to try to turn it on. Just like before though, it stayed in boot loop.
I'm sorry if this was too long... I'm new to XDA, could somebody please help me?
Thank you
Oh and this whole time I didn't have any form of superuser installed...
Can anyone help?
Does anybody know what to do? Please help me!
