USB Brick and brick sdcard, please help
Hi
Maybe giving a bit more detail about what happened to get the usb/sd bricked would help people to reply you
My device is connected to the PC does not recognize the Android and the recovery. currently no driver error: "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM"
(Sorry for my English which should not be used goolge translate)
Do you have ROOT??
I unbricked my Desire yesterday so I know how to do it (only with ROOT).
Just download the correct RUU for your region from one of the post in this forum. Connect the USB cable, run the RUU exe and it flash your phone back to the OTA ROM.
I was put on the original room and then proceed boot, successfully run the STEP1, STEP2, but to the error can not enter the recovery

it's very strange, I have exactly the same problem since yesterday!
SD Card brick is resolved by this command in fastboot mode :
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
But USB Brick is not resolved and my phone no longer root how can I do? I tried unsuccessfully Z4 root, is there another software to root without USB?
My capital is very little English, I did follow the instructions at the link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639. But it is not possible, please provide detailed guidance and may include images is very good.
(Each charge to just plug the cable and reboot the machine to receive a new charger)
Hi, I had the Same Problems some Minutes ago. (I was using the new AmonRA Recovery to flash a new ROM).
Here are the Steps what I have done to solve my problem (Rooted ROM is required):
1.) Download Android SDK -> Then open a comand Line and change into the Tools Directory:
cd path\to\AndroidSDK\tools
2.) You need to know your CID.
Turn your Phone into fastboot mode (Pressing Back and Power On). Then in your Comand Line do:
fastboot oem boot
The log will say something like the following:
CODE
.
.
.
#INFOCID is T-Mob101
In this specific case, the CID is T-Mob101.
3.) Get and extract the the attached Rescue.zip File.
Open the File "misc.img" in a hex Editor of your Choice and change "T-MOB101" to your CID
3.) Turn your Phone again into fastboot mode (Pressing Back and Power On) then go to your Command Line and do:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 (This will enable your SD Card to be seen in your favorite explorer on your phone)
then "Reboot"
4.) Then get the two files to your SD-Card (email them or dropbox them or what ever).
5.) Open a Terminal Emulator (http://www.appbrain.com/app/android-terminal-emulator/jackpal.androidterm) on our Phone
enter:
su (Enter to get Superuser Rights)
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image (this will copy the file to /data, therefore you need root!)
cat /sdcard/misc.img > /data/misc.img (this will copy the file to /data, therefore you need root!)
chmod 755 /data/flash_image (this makes the file "flash_image" executable)
/data/flash_image misc /data/misc.img (this will execute flash_image the result will be that you overwrite your misc section)
Reboot.
Everything should be ok
Ok this is a bit weird cos my usb got bricked yesterday too but a lot of searching i have managed to get it sorted. i lost root too so used this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9056719&postcount=15 its similar to the above but for people who have lost root.
I've already re rooted and back on my leedroid2.2b
Guys can i just ask if your usb got bricked after you s-offed your desire and upgraded to the new amon ra recovery
I "S-OFF'ed" my Device some Time ago without any Problems. Today I flashed the new AmonRA via Unrevoked. Everthing went fine. After Flashing a new ROM (Oxygen) i had the mentioned USB/SD-Card Problem.
I was able to access my Device via Fastboot and get into Recovery but my SD Card was not able to be mounted anymore. (Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)).
Also i was stuck in a Bootloop after the "S-OFF Bootlogo".
After "fixing" the SD Card Problem, i was able to Boot the new Rom, access the SD Card via FIle Explorer, but my Device was not recognized properly while connected via USB. Something like "unrecognized Quallcom Device" Driver not found.
Yeah i had similar experience i had i flashed new amon ra via fastboot then backed up my leedroid2.2b rom via rom manager just cos i could rename it easily then booted into amon ra wiped and flashed latest leedroid. On the reboot it decided to reboot on the spalsh screen a few times and then the boot animation started when i booted i realised i had sd problem but wasn't aware of usb so ended up going the long way around
Right, basically I think I have pretty much messed up my phone, yeah yeah I know what your all thinking, seen this before.. you most likely have, I have read all the pages and tried to search for people with similar problems to me to save asking the same thing again, however I keep finding answer's that take me back to another problem on my phone.
anyway long story short, my phone wont get past bootloader. i can still get to recovery, but that does not help much as i get about 1 minute before it restarts if i plug it into my pc when in this mode, unless i format the system.
Phone spec:
Bravo PT3 SHIP S-On
Hboot-0.93.0001
Microp-051d
Touch Panel-Synt0101
Radio-5.17.05.08
Aug 10 2010, 17:52:18
Running ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1
am able to format Boot, System, Data and Cache.
However when i try format SDcard i get the message
"E: Can't Mount /dev/block/mmcblk (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1)
(no such file or directory)
Error Mounting / SDcard/! "
I thought maybe trying to re-root my desire using unrevoked, if that would have been an option, with the latest Clockwork recovery, but it will not find my phone in fastboot. However after a few attempts of plugging in my phone ,AMDesire Recovery finds my phone and can get it to wipe the dalvic cache, sd:ext partition, create a partition, try to wipe sd:ext partition and it says "error : run 'wipe ext' via adb.
I thought at looking at the DeBricking page on here, but that seems a lot of code, and when trying to find the right downloads i to even enter all that code i have got myself a bit lost.
any help whatssoever, would be greatful,
also i apologise for this if it is in the wrong forum but as i am pretty much a new user, i am unable to post in many places.

only just noticed with the adb tools that i don't need to install java SE and about 200 more apps being uploaded from adk server... but still, now i cant get past this bit!
Fastboot
Like what the other replies said, this is, most likely, a USB brick.
Try this command in fastboot mode: "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"
Search in the forums to set up ADB/fastboot properly in your PC.

In order to install Android SDK you need JRE. You do not have to install all the software available in SDK you have only to download the tools.

This reads to me like you have a corrupt Ext...did you attempt to flash any alignment.zip before this happened?? Every time I try to flash an alignment, I also get this error message...hence I don't bother anymore...
My suggestion is to remove your SD and place in a card reader, then format your Ext using GParted. When you boot to recovery again, all should be sweet.
Just a thought.
dont use any EXT partition at this stage.. format ur sd card with single FAT32 partition and then try
Thanks to all of you trying to help me, I think i may need to mention that my phone does not seem to be able to read any sd card, not just the one i was using, tried my 16 gb, 8 gb, and 4gb. same message comes up.
going to try gparted later, and also have another go at creating gold card (what driver should be on set for this to work, Androidbootloader or MY HTC ? )
hopefully by the end of tonight i will have a working phone .
Once again thanks for everybody's help, I will click all the Thanks bit later

this is an usb brick, you should install android sdk, go into cmd
1. type in cd C:/android-sdk-windows/tools atleast if you have it there
go into hboot, press fastboot and connect your phone to your pc, it should say fastboot usb. then enter fastboot enable etc..(this enables the sd card read ability) after that go to the link i gave you, flash the update.zip and ur usb brick is gone,
easy as that
this sounds too simple and i still am having problems, do i not need a gold card?
Command prompt and typing in the commands you say, i continue to get an error message saying deice not found, seriously, i bet i am doing one thing wrong.. that's too simple to notice?!?!
i've never heard that you need a goldcard for a usb brick, it may sound dumb but have you installed htc sync? if so uninstall it and i you haven't install and uninstall for the drivers, usually a usb brick is solved in 4-5min, so maybe you missed out something, because when i had my first usb-brick i entered adb shell-.- you just have to type the command in once
just tried same on my notebook, no htc sync installed , Still Says error : device not found. am guessing i am pretty much screwed.
not got my hopes up too high just yet, but i think it's actually looking up a bit now, conected to phone, typed in the commands given, it can read sd card, installed update.zip. now i dunno if i should go back to backup, or try install everything again,
Thanks so much guys
Hi,
I needed to flash a ROM onto my phone (prev using leedroid), however as I was going about this process (after I had backed everything up using clockworkmod recovery, and begun wiping), the phone stopped detecting my SD card
this card had been working fine for well over a year before. now error in recovery is something like E: unable to mount xxxx
it is detected using SD card reader on computer, and I have tried re-partitioning it to no avail
now the phone can boot into recovery and also the rom, but the SD card isnt detected in either, and neither now is the SIM card.
normally I would search extensively for a solution myself before posting, but I have done as much as I can, in my current situation I have no WIFI, only an internet dongle with very slow connection.
currently I assume that there is a problem with the radio but I have not had experience flashing this without using SD card in recovery
also, due to the risks involved with flashing radio, I would prefer to try to flash a new rom first, but again I have no experience flashing a new rom without SD card in recovery.
I have adb installed on my computer but not much experience using it.
Sorry for all this, but I am not the kind of guy who flashes roms regularly, the last time I did it was a while ago, and cant really remember how I rooted in the first place (I think I used unrevoked) - therefore uncertain of S-off status - although not sure what the significance of this is
please help i dont know what to do
thanks
This is what you need to do (instructions I wrote for myself in case I ever broke it again) :-
To gain access to SD card:
Put phone into fastboot mode (back button + power)
In CMD, go to dir C:\Android\android-sdk\Tools
Type: path C:\Android\android-sdk\Platform-tools)
Input "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"
You'll need the Android SDK and once installed (along with the updated USB drivers that are available in the updates it finds) I discovered that 'Fastboot' was in a different directory to ADB so attempting to run Fastboot failed as it couldn't find ADB. My cure was to create a path to the ADB directory (as listed above). Be sure to change the path and directories to wherever you install them.
Alternatively (and far easier) search for 'Android Flasher' which is available on these forums. This has fastboot and adb installed in the same directory and is a much, much smaller download and run the above command from a CMD prompt from the directory that fastboot and adb reside in wherever you install Android Flasher to. I've never tried it this way but no reason why it shouldn't work and far easier than getting the whole SDK thing!
Yep confirmed, Android Flasher will do it. A quick search should find the program, it's a very small download compared to downloading the Android-SDK (and the Java runtime module it requires). Simply change directory in CMD to c:\your android flasher dir\data directory and run that command from there with the phone plugged in and running fastboot, fixed.
Here you go :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638&highlight=android+flasher
Ignore the S-Off bit, that's to do with the functions of the flasher itself, we're not actually using that.
thanks so much guys, that sorted the problem right out (used AndroidFlasher)
after reflashing the ROM, the problems with the SIM went away, so no need to flash new radio!
Guys same problem here
I backed up, I changed my sd card to an 32gb, restored but then i had the "Can’t mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1" problem
I solved the problem with your solution (fastboot oem enableqxdm 0) then full wipe then reinstall rom
But now windows can't see my device. On my phone there is no popup menu to ask me what do i want to do when i connect the usb plug
Also, in recovery, i choose mount USB storage but windows dont see my ds card (4gb or 32gb cards)
What is the problem?
ps
when i connect to windows, device driver installation says: device driver software was not successfully installed.
It also listes "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM No driver found" 3 times
Check if it's working with another sd card.

I'm afraid you have what is known as a USB brick, the fact that it asks for the Qualcomm drivers confirms it. Do a search on the forum, there is a fix for it.

I've given you a 'thanks' also for replying to mine. It's a bad road to go down with the USB brick but it's something that everyone playing with rom's should experience as it educates you so much when things go wrong!
Glad you sorted it m8.

I've been running CM7 on my phone for quite some time along with SOS and recently the latest CM7 from here. Somehow my phone appears to be bricked. Perhaps from a faulty nandroid that I restored? It goes into bootloader but I can't do much there. When I select recovery I get the 5 vibes of death and black screen. I can get to CWM with USB connected, but CWM can't mount the sdcard. And somehow I noticed I have S-ON. I originally rooted with unrevoked. Can anyone offer any advice on how to proceed?
Flash Amon Ra. CWM is just not a good recovery with the Evo, but even so, with AR, I've had my recovery get corrupted twice with the same error you're having (Both times were after the only 2 times I ran a superwipe) and had to reflash my recovery, which fixed it.
And I can do that by getting a copy of Amon Ra in the PC36IMG.zip format, like here?

not bricked
Your recovery is corrupted. Just place the PM36IMG in the root of the SD Card and as soon as you PWR+Vol- your phone will rub the update package and you will then be able to enter recovery. If you phone turns on, it's not bricked. There is always a way to fix it. Message me at any step you get to and if your phone won't go any farther I will message you back with the solution.
Ok, so I've copied that file to my sdcard and booted. hboot sees the file and it appears to load with a vertical blue indicator to the right. But I never get any prompts to install. Once the indicator completes, it goes back to the hboot menu. Will this not install because I have S-ON?
Ahh, well, yeah, I didn't know you were S-on. You have to be S-off to flash a custom recovery
Ok. I'm not sure how I got S-ON. I'm pretty sure it was off so I could flash CM7 and CWM, etc. Anyway, can I easily turn it off?
I've got hboot 2.10.0001
Radio 2.15.00.11.19
I can get it to boot into CM7 but it won't recognize the sdcard.
I can't seem to get my phone working with adb. I have adb enabled and when I connect my usb cable to my phone and laptop, the phone says debugging enabled but my laptop can't talk to it via adb. I also tried to ensure hboot drivers are installed and I still show android bootloader interface in device manager. When I boot into bootloader and select hboot usb and then connect my usb cable, it shows hboot usb plug but adb devices still shows nothing connected. So my sdcard and usb seem to not be working properly.
What can I load via hboot with S-ON? I've tried to update the radio as well as loading a rooted stock rom by loading the files on my sdcard as PC36IMG.zip. hboot sees them and loads/checks them, but I never get the option to install. I even tried stock 1.32.651.1 and it loads and checks but I still don't get the option to install.
Nothing. You need to run the RUU, either via pc36img or by the exe on your computer, re-root, and then flash recovery
Could there be something wrong with my bootloader? I tried to run this RUU and it definitely gets loaded and checked, but I never get the option to install. It just goes back to the bootloader menu. Any ideas why I don't get the option to install? Is the RUU version too old for my phone/bootloader version? I don't think I can run the .exe since I'm having a difficult time getting my phone to talk to my pc via USB.
So I was able to get it to show up in adb by booting into bootloader and selecting hboot usb and then going into recovery. When I try to run unrevoked3 I get the error Device "/sbin/sh: getprop: not found" is not supported at this time.
I think you'll need to run Revolutionary, although it's been so long since I rooted, or follwed rooting processes, I'm not sure, based on your Hboot version, but that determines which root process you'll need to use.
Sorry this is dragging on so long.
Also, jump on IRC, Freenode #htc-evo.
Those guys are great at helping people out
My phone is still rooted, it just has S-ON for some reason. I looked at Revolutionary but wasn't sure that applied since my hboot version, 2.10.0001, isn't listed in the options and I'm having trouble talking to my phone via usb/adb.

First, you have the wrong drivers installed to run any RUU (not PC36IMG). You need Fastboot drivers, not Hboot drivers from here. (INSTALL IT TO YOUR COMPUTER).
http://www.4shared.com/get/InLGg_UI/HTCDriver300007.html
Second, you have the wrong PC36IMG file (not RUU) for your Hboot 2.10.
Either one of these files should work for you to unroot since they each have the same Hboot 2.10.
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.exe
http://goo-inside.me/stock/superson...15.00.11.19_NV_1.90_release_161482_signed.zip
Third, you will need those Hboot USB drivers you installed in Hboot USB to run unrevoked (the reflash program) from your computer, not recovery. Make sure when you go to Hboot USB (by clicking on Hboot in the bootloader and observing "Hboot USB" highlighted in blue, not just "Hboot" highlighted) with your phone connected to your computer, that your device manager still reads "Android Bootloader Interface", or you will have to reinstall them (in "Hboot USB").
The unrevoked reflash program (not unrevoked-forever) can be found from this link.
http://downloads.unrevoked.com/recovery/3.32/reflash_package.exe
Reboot back into your phone's operating system, then run the unrevoked program, and you should be OK.
Thanks!
I was able to flash the stock .zip and get back to stock. hboot usb shows Android Bootloader Interface. I boot into stock I enable usb debugging. My computer then tries to load drivers for new hardware "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM" and the screen goes black and the phone vibrate 5 times. Any ideas?

Try pulling the battery. Can you get into the bootloader, and also, can your computer still read the phone after a battery pull and trying to boot into the bootloader or trying to boot into the operating system?

Boot Loader Loop, Unlocked, S-Off, Rooted HTC M8 Tmobile
A year ago I believe I used HBoot and or Firewater to root my M8. I recently removed some applications that seemed to make my phone act funny, and now the phone is stuck in a boot loop, or rather just a boot and stop at the second HTC "One" screen. Not exactly a loop.
I've download ADB tool and tried the fastboot method to install TWRP but have no success because the computer does not recognize the phone while running ADB or Fastboot, therefore I cant install TWRP and am stuck in the bootloader menu. I have tried various different cables and restarted the pc several times, and installed htc sync and other drivers necessary for that process. Also uninstalled and installed different drivers later as well. Now im not sure what i have installed but I have access to the phones internal drive via explorer.
Using Hboot.

Recovery leads to nothing and eventually returns to the HTC One menu stop.
Reset does nothing, acts like fast boot actually.
Ramdump under fastboot seems to works, and does produce log files.
While the phone was still active, I managed to create a full "manual" backup of the device by plugging it in and backing up/copying the entire internal memory. After screwing with the phone and every option for several hours I managed to access the files of the internal memory by switching to recovery mode via the boot menu and then plugging in the phone via usb to comp while deleting the drivers at the same time. I tried a full restoration of the internal backup i made, by copy and replace if the same method, but still nothing.
Ive attached an image of the Hboot menu with the details and options of that Hboot for those of you familiar with hboot.
The ideal situation, or what i'd like to do is restore the phone without flashing the rom and loosing the information, then id like to upgrade to lollipop or a new custom rom I found here actually, but the first step is getting back into the phone which i would be very grateful for in general.
also, not great with cmd and all that stuff, I do have sdk tools downloaded and installed but not great with that either. If there was a more simple way to replace existing files in the phone via the file manager (because im able to access the internal drive via the file manager, that would be the most ideal and easiest situation. But knowing the path and the boot files and which files are necessary for boot is what im looking for as well.
Also i know how to flash a sd and htc has a sdcard slot as well. Also i should mention that prior to the phone being screwed up I did want to delete some internal certificates because i believe someone installed a spy application on the phone, hence the reason for all of this checkup and removal anyway. In the process of trying to do that, i followed a tutorial on this forum which suggested I create a security lock pin, which I did. This could also be the cause of the problem not being recognized by the adb or fastboot script.
Who ever helps me do that gets a tip.
Please help.
It's not easy to find a nandroid backup with such old version no.
You already backup your internal memory data/files.
Why don't just run RUU to start fresh at lollipop level.
Run this RUU - RUU_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_4.16.401.10_Radio_1.25.214500021.06G_20.68.4196t.01_F_release_417003_signed.exe
Download here : http://androidruu.com/?developer=M8
What you need :
Put the device in bootloader/fastboot mode
A windows PC with USB2.0
Right click the exe and select run as administrator and follow the instructions ..
Won't that delete all my current contacts/logs/texts, etc?

By the way, Your rom was the was one i already downloaded and wanted to install for M8. The skydragon for M8. SO it's cool that you're helping.
Yeah .. the RUU will wipes everything .. that's why I said start fresh.
SD ROM/any lollipop based ROM won't work on your current hboot, too old/outdated version.
Good luck .. it's 4 am here, good night
