Hi,
I got a DHD from my coworker. It hangs on a CM7 bootscreen after his son tried to install CM.
As he said I could keep it I thought I would give the repair a try.
I read on the forums but I am not sure atm on how to proceed.
When I start it while holding VOlume down it I see
Code:
*** UNLOCKED ***
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0029
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.14.04.28_M
eMMC-boot
Dec 22 2011, 14:28:19
ClockworkMod 5.8 is installed but I cant mount anything. E: Can't mount /sdcard/
Could somebody advise me what the easiest way would be to make the DHD usable again?
Thanks,
Kiesel
I don't know what he did to it, but flashing a ROM in recovery without flashing the kernel in fastboot on an S-On device will make it hang on boot. Either flash the CM7 kernel in fastboot or do both steps with a new ROM.
thanks, that was my first thought but I didnt want to make the situation any worse. Will that work even if CWM says it cant mount /sdcard?
I would try flashing the kernel of the existing CM7 ROM in fastboot first. If that doesn't work, figure out the SD card mount. You could try another recovery.
I flashed the boot.img, thats what you meant, isnt it? Thats at least what I saw in other threads I read. Didnt work out though. I will read about over recovery mods and then try those.

This thread maybe help you a little bit if you didn't read it already:

CyanogenMod ROM is just a option. You can install what ever ROM you want.
Did you try: format the cache, data and system partitions, wipe the Dalvik cache?

Yeah, flash the boot.img from fastboot. If that doesn't work try another recovery; maybe another recovery will mount the sdcard properly. (I find that easier than trying to fix a specific problem because I'm lazy.) 4ext and TWRP are good options.
You need to mount the sdcard to flash an entire ROM from the recovery. You could also unzip a ROM and flash the partitions individually from fastboot, but I'd do that as a last resort.
I tried TWRP but it had the same problem. Ext4 is next.
I also heard about using a RUU. would that maybe work?

No, because you will get error 140. You can't use ruu on unlocked phone.
Only thing you can do with ruu is that you can use stock rom.zip from it and flash it from sdcard or via fastboot.
If you flash it from sdcard, you must rename it to PD98IMG.zip
Sory for my bad english.
Ah, ok.
I will try that tomorrow, I am not at a PC atm. Can I otherwise somehow repartition the internal sd?

hi i flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=806321
and now it just will start the boot img and nothing more :S but i started revocery mode and flashed my rom again but same as before, and i tried to wipe everything "and i mean everything" and flashed a rom after but same as before :S what should i do? should i flash a ruu? i tried to download some ruus from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667 but they just come to 1-15%and then they just shut down :S and can someone download http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...io_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe and send it to me? so i can try to reflash with ruu. thanks in advance!
Have you flashing bravo-boot-v1.5.3-CustomMTD.zip AFTER you flashed the new ROM images? If not, could you try that, please?
If that doesn't work.. try following all the instructions in the post again, using a ROM image that you know will work.

i tried to flash boot.. like 10 times :S and now when im trying to flash my rom it comes up an error" error on line system/xbin" or something like that :S
Flash a ruu, it will return your device to normal! Do you have s-off? In future make sure the system partition size u set is big enough for all your /system/ data, i suggest leaving 10mb extra aswell just to be sure

Are you rooted?,are you S-OFF or S-ON on the bootloader?if your rooted you should'nt have a problem installing the rom,you dont have to update your hboot.You might however need to partition your sd card,some roms require it,to work correctly.

I am rooted and I am s-off. I also did partition my sd card before attempting to flash the ROM. the partition I did was swap size 32mb - 1024. And upgraded from ext2 to ext3 if that makes a difference. when I try to flash the ROM it says installation aborted. If it has nothing to do with hboot can it be the zip file than?

Did you check the MD5sum to make sure they match,your file could be corrupted.
How do I check md5sum. And if the file is corrupted is there a fix for it? Sorry I'm new to root and Android coming from Apple which is like two different worlds so I'm still learning somethings

ClockworkMod recovery was installed but due to unknown reason I cannot boot into recovery. When I try to get into recovery the phone gets stuck at HTC boot screen.
Did you try reflashing the recovery?

That's what I would have asked, too.
Look here for files (search, where it says "6: Custom Recoveries"). I've always done it by following method: "3) Via PC49IMG.zip Process (Needs S-OFF) - Download anyone of the PC49IMG ZIP file of the recovery you wish to install, place on your SDcard, and reboot into HBoot Mode ..."
' Well, when I've run ruu's on my phone. It never touched the bootloader because it was newer than the one in the ruu. So after that I just flashed cwm and a superuser zip and carried on as normal
EDIT: Also, can you get into recovery through hboot?

right. But as a hint: if you do it with method 3) and you want to go into recovery with Fastboot after flashing a new one - you have to get the PC49IMG.zip out of the SDCARD's root first (e.g. connect to USB or put the card into a card reader to remove it)
I flashed the shipped ROM and I am glad that it didn't remove S-OFF. After that I rooted my device using SuperOneClick. Thinking of staying with this ROM for a while before reflashing ClockWorkMod. Thanks a lot guys for your help.
I have the new hboot and all, and I want to try out froyo just for the fun of it.Thing is when I flash CM6, I also flash the gapps and everything, but it doesn't move from the HTC screen.I have S-off and I'm unlocked.Any clue?I'd really wanna see what it's it like on this device.

Have you read ANY of the hundreds of posts regarding being stuck after flashing a new Rom?
Obviously not, because if you had, you would have found out by now, like the others that you must manually flash the boot.IMG that is inside the Rom after flashing it.

Also, re-download the rom, check the md5 and flash only the rom, then boot.

The md5 is the same as the one I had downloaded before, I have 4ext and I used the wipe all partitions except sdcard method, and just flashed it.
Is it possible that froyo can't boot from ext4 partitions?As the wipe wipes data,system,cache as ext4.

also upon useing adb sideload i have noticed issues with mounting internal sd, so herefore causing more issues, funny thing is, the phone was actually working before the ota update......
Hmm. Not mounting internal sd... Try this:
Flash stock recovery in fastboot, then hit factory reset in bootloader. This should clean up any corruptions/bad sectors and make the internal sd mountable again. Once that's done, flash your custom recovery, and try installing stock from sideload again. Make sure both the adb on your computer, and the custom recovery is up to date.
