The vibrations mean that it is in Qualcomm diagnostics mode......there was a thread in this forum about this.

there a way to fix it by creating a goldcard and run the ruu now press ctrl+r and type %temp% once your temp folder loads do a search in the temp folder for rom.zip rename that to to cant remember ill edit this post in a minute with the name you now copy the renamed file to the root of your sdcard and boot the phone as if you were going into hboot leave the phone for half and hour to 45 minutes to be on the safe side you the pull the battery and put it in again now try and boot your phone that worked on my mates wfs lets hope it works for you.
edit: rename it to PG76DIAG.zip its case senseitive.
p.s. most of the custom roms here are for gsm handsents and NOT cdma.

i think i can do it if i could just get into download mode...
none of the methods that i have found are working.
also, i did what the quoted text said and i got "no results match your query" what does it mean by run the ruu... i opened it and just minimized it.
edit: i guess i flashed the wrong ruu... it was probably vm uk, heh heh.

Run the HTC ROM Install
then open "Run"- if with Windows and type %TEMP%
that leads you to the temp dir and then search for a file rom.zip, rename it and put it in you card...

i did exactly that and it still shows no results...
should i redownload the rom and just get the file?

Help A Newbie once A Day with An MDA

Hi All
Have a problem with my latest phone. A so called friend told me to upgarde the ROM so as to remove all the T Mobile poop in it. So he gave me the software I started the upgrade all went well stage 1 then stage 2 and finally stage 3. It said Congrats just hit reset and the power button at the same time and its done. Easy Me thought..... Not Easy....... Its now just booting up and screaming at me. The screen wont lite up and nothing else. I have tries to reset over 10 times now.....Anyone got any ideas, have I shot and killed my new phone...
Ta JG
this is not good. do you know which phone you are having? MDA is all the phoen from t-mobile. First identify your phone. Then, you need to know if you are using the right ROM on the right phone. THEN, you have to know are you using the right phone ROM on the phone (eg G3 or G4).
Its an MDA Copmact 11 does that help....
common.. more info. which rom you've used?
Alpine_Ext-1.11.162_Radio-1.04_stuffstripped_Camera_Fixed.
SORRY i AM NEW TO THIS AND i AINT GOT A CLUE WHAT i AM DOIN...HE HE HE
Oh forgot to mention it all went in ok, stage 1, 2, 3 and even told me on my computer it had worked. It was when I tried the power and reset that it all came tumbling down........

All I would like to do is get the old stuff back then worry about an upgarde later can this be done without me having to do unspeakable things to the phone????
You've just flashed your Charmer phone with an Alpine ROM. If that doesn't kill your phone, I'm not sure what will.
Ok, try this. Hold down all 3 buttons -> power, camera, record buttons, and poke the reset. See if you can get a 3 colours screen.
If you get that, close active sync (stop the process WCESCOMM.EXE), connect your phone to your PC (when it is displaying the 3 colour screen). Then you ought to be able to run the ROM update file (EXE) from t-mobile (check the Charmer Wiki) and that may fix your problem.

I have done what you have said, I think...DUHHHH the screen has not lit up but its now showing USB in the top and V1.02 in th ebottem. I have connected it to my computer but active sync has not cut in yet....... I assume I have done it wrong....
hey
you DONT want activesync to cut in
put it in that 'usb mode' that you managed to get and just run the OFFICIAL T-Mobile rom update utility, but make sure to kill the wcesscomm process in windows' task manager.
good luck!

I have just downloaded the t-mobile update as below
RUU_Compact ll_2060227_20602110_021921_T-MobileUK_Ship
I have switched off the file as you have said in the task manager. The update laods then says cannot find MDA Device connection error 274.
Could a system restart help?????
Sorry for all this, maybe stick to things I do know in the future, like washing my car.......
hey
get your phone back into that screen which had 'usb' written on it.
then do this:
download and install a program called 'winrar', you've probably heard of it and in all likelihood already have it!
once its installed, right click that t-mobile update you just download and select the 'extract to.../' option that will come up in the drop down menu, let it extract to the folder it does, open the folder in there will be a few files: you want the file which is called something along the lines of 'upgrateUT' or RUU Upgrade UT, it'll be an exe,
connect your phone up to the computer (with it in the USB mode and activesync disabled) and run that exe, it should go through as normal
good luck
(if you want any help just post back! best bet is for you to extract the files and report back with the name of the files in the folder!)
duke: I think he did that. He downloaded the EXE from http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/download_manager_mda_com2.html
and it seems not able to detect his Charmer.
JeanGenie: Just to make sure, when you run that EXE, you have the phone connected with it displaying USB?

well, it is amazing that you can go into the bootloader at all. I'm suspecting that the bootloader is not the Chamer bootloader, hence the ROM update EXE is not able to find it. Where did you download the Alpine ROM. Give exact link.
UPDATE: Look at the post here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=269329&highlight=
by 'windowsceportal'. He is able to flash the phone with 'Prophet RUU 2.5.2 noID check' with the DLL RUUResource.dll of Charmer RUU. I'm not very certain, but the noIdCheck may able to help.
UPDATE: As according to this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=280128&highlight=
the bootloader mode that you are having is that of an Alpine (Charmer's bootloader mode is a screen with 3 colours). So, probably the updating program doesn't work. However, as an idea, you may want to try getting alpine upgrading EXE files to load Charmer ROM into the phone. It is an idea, not sure how can this be achieved.

Is there anyway of just deleting the Alpine ROM and reinstalling the correct charmer. I, as you have probably guessed aint got a clue what I am doing never lone saying...he he he
Just a thought.......
Plus my new XDA IIi was delieverd today am I being silly when I say I have been told that I can debrand it with the Alpine rom as listed above, dont want to try anything incase this phone goes belly up also....
Hellllppppp...........
Its me again, can anyone make any other suggestions to my problem please. I have tried in vain to do what has been already suggested but it seems either it wont work or more to the point I have no clue as to what I am doing.

What do you do if the unlocker errors half-way through?

I actually have a new phone coming today because I had no idea what to do and when I called neither did Verizon.
I seen the GPS fix thread, downloaded all the necessary files, ran the first unlocker (.40) and it errored half-way through the process, I figured big deal I'll just run it again..
Well, my USB would show on the phone screen but in the bootload mode the unlocker programs couldnt detect my phone at all and I couldn't get out of bootload mode whether I hit soft reset or took out the battery. So I decided to try going ahead an upgrading, I tried the next step on the list (sprint rom) but the upgrade would error as well, then I tried the verizon one, error, and the just tried jumping back to the NFSFan ROM and it didn't even begin to error it said it wasn't allowed or something.
Anyways, I had no idea what to do... took it in to the store, they looked at it for awhile then told me to call a number, I tried the number and they attempted to wipe it from their side and couldnt do anything so they told me they'd send another one being I was still in my 1-year warranty.
Is this how you brick a phone? Having an error during an unlocker/upgrade? Or could I have fixed this if I asked here before I sent for a new 1? I don't mind because I'm hype for a brand new phone, I just wonder if it can be fixed incase this ever happens again.

to do the gpsfix you have to use coke .40, its not like its some old outdated thing the thread is from august everybodys been using it, all i want to know is if theres no return once an error occurs in the middle of an unlocker?

There is a fix
what is showing on the bootloader screen for the unlocker?
Also you may want to reflash a shipped ROM. I have had this happen on both Titans and Vogues and reflashing from the bootloader screen always solves the problem.
I'm assuming you have to flash via the SD card right? Because I tried doing it through the USB and all the ROMs would error because the unlocker never fully finished, I mean before all this my phone was unlocked by the 2.31 and I had the newest NFSFan running I just decided to go back for the GPSFix..
The bootloader screen wasn't froze, it showed the usual..
Upper right corner says "RUUNBH"
Then to the left top it says..
VOGU100
SPL-0.36.0000
CPLD-3
and Serial at the bottom until I put the USB in and it turns to USB.. but it doesn't get picked up by the unlocker if I try to re-run it
I guess I answered my own question.. to fix it I'd have to run the unlocker again from the SD Card so it finish's without error since the USB won't pick up right?
My problem is I've never ran anything from the SD card.. if anyone can tell me how you go about loading up an unlocker or ROM from bootload on the SD I'd appreciate it, this way when I get my new phone if I run into a similar problem I can fix it

Try installing this driver on your XP computer http://www.4shared.com/file/101893703/a59b72a/WindowsHTCdrivers.html if you have Vista let me know and I'll give you a link fvor that one. It should then allow you to communicate via USB. Also to answer your next question on flashing from the SD. It is simple you copy the NBH file from a ROM to Root directory of a FAT32 card 2 gb or less. Rename the file to VOGUIMG.nbh place the card into PPC and place into bootloader mode. Then follow the instructions.

All you do is put the .nbh file on the root directory of the memory card(use a newly formatted/clean card). It may delete anything else on the card while flashing.
I would take out the battery. Put in the SD card then turn the phone on. If, like you say, you are stuck in bootloader mode then it should start flashing as soon as it powers up.
Thanks everyone, I received my new phone this was mainly incase it happened again, but I also figured out why I ran into my problem..
During the unlocker I thought I knew the process being I'd done it multiple times, I skipped the part where I unplug the phone from USB and plug it back in so it's no longer connected with ActiveSync... thats why my unlocker error'd, so make sure you don't do that lol
What was messed up is my computers been acting like a piece of ****, it wouldnt even read my SD card so that I could put a file on it, but I don't think I'd wanna do it that way I have all my stuff on my SD card if it erased it I'd have been pissed..
ActiveSync does work, for awhile I thought the USB was only charging my phone because my new one wouldnt pick-up ActiveSync.. no idea why.. but if I plug it in and wait around 10 minutes it finally connects.

Stuck/freeze (Hero) while downgrade. Not working now at all!!

Helo dear friends.
Well I just wanted to get some Hebrew in my Hero.
I have the Orange hero in Spain. Upgraded to official rom - 2.73.61.5, worked fine.
Now i am trying to downgrade it, so i can root it, so i can add all the fun stuff (including hebrew).
Did the gold card, since i understood that this hero is CID locked. (and maybe i am wrong). Then failed few times with error 140 when tried the 1.76.405.6 and 1.76.405.1 rom downloads. Then tried to downgrade to 2.73.405.5 rom as someone suggested here... and the process started happily, downloaded Splash1 ok, system ok, userdata ok, boot ok, bootloader ok, then GOT STUCK ON "Radio-V2 - updating" (at about 85%.. froze!)
(I attached a picture).
This happened few times, sometimes never even started to download, was just froze at the beginning of the process with: "zip header checking..."
So every-time this happened i had to disconnect it, pull the battery out or something, and try again. (I also found out that for some-reason things moved forward when restarting windows which by the way, works on parallels, mac ...)
Now the hero is stuck on the white error screen i guess, pictures attached.
Mmmm... hope someone can suggest something... straight and to the point, i feel i am going circles will appreciate allot.
Thanks in advance
Cheers!
First off ... KEEP THE PHONE PLUGGED IN! (So the battery doesn't die... If i remember right... fastboot chews through battery)
Next.. how long has it been stuck?
Well, first time for 30 minutes of no movement, then at the rest of the attempts i kept losing my patient each 20-30 minutes... in a process that might take 10?
yeah the battery ran out once..
thanks.
Trying again, now it's stuck on "system - updating". 20 minutes.
Please help.. someone?
Should i try another rom? any suggestion for Orange Spain?
Someone experienced problems via Parallels ?
Parallels as in your trying this from a VM? I would bet thats your problem! While it techincally shouldn't make a difference... I would try with real PC!
yes, virtual machine...
Ok, and that PC, should it have all the drivers for the phone? i mean now that the hero is stuck, would a different computer recognize it?
I should just download the rom to the computer and try to install it?
thanks.
You'll want to install the USB drivers (The HTC Sync download from htc.com likely has these included...)
If the VM still see's it - any PC with the drivers installed correctly will see it.
If you get the the custom recovery image flahed, you'll be able to do everything from your mac after that...
ho really? can you elaborate a bit on that? start with: " custom recovery image flahed"
Thanks.
Details @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=561124
Thanks. and this i do after i downgrade successfully the rom (with lets say a proper PC?) ?
Do i need to root after downgrading?
As far as I remember - Yes - you will need to root the phone, then:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/recovery.img (If this fails with file not found dont worry about it)
I seem to remember needing those when I rooted my hero ...
Thanks kiall, resolved it at the end, without downgrade, no PC, just pushed the Recovery to the formatted sdcard, flashed it and the modaco rom and then radio and hebrew fonts, all is ok now...
Thanks for you time.

HTC desire 2.2 HELP please

Ok so, this is my first android phone and after being prompted to install the 2.2 update on my European htc desire, i downloaded and started it installing. It gets to about 23% and says process system unavailible and after reading what people said i cleared the phone and tried to install the update manually from the SD card. This didn't work
My phone currently does this
Will boot into what it says is 2.2 but with no wifi, no service, and no SD card showing up
then after about 5 minutes it will reboot.
I have no idea what i can do to fix this? could someone please help me, i'm a noob with android so a clear step by step would be much appreciated

how did you create a blank goldcard, i can't access my SD card on my phone while it's in the phone so how did you do it
Do you have a WIFI connection? I do, and did the OTA 2.2 upgrade over WiFi with no problems, on my Unbranded European HTC Desire.
If youre phone won't boot properly, there are a few answers; 1) Return in to HTC, they're getit working and back to you, 2) Return it to th place of purchase, 3) Root/reflash (but sounds like it might not be an option).

When I got in touch with HTC they wanted £50 to do a reflash, falsely accusing me of rooting my device..
was that 50$ to send it to them? or can they do it without having it there. Because if THEIR update screwed up my phone i don't see why i should have to pay for a fix
maybe a silly question but did you try a factory reset?

Tell me about it, so thankful I managed to fix it myself!
It sounds like you are alll applying an OTA update for the standard ROM to what was a branded device. There are lots of explanations as to how to fix this if this is the case
In summary
Download update from mentioned here
Copy this to root of your goldcard and rename to update.zip
Turn off phone
Turn on holding down vol down
Select Bootloader then Recovery (an image of device should appear with exclamation mark over)
In menu (sorry forgot how you get in, if it does not appear then try power+vol down or power + back). From there choose apply update.zip
Wait while update applied
After update select reboot and wait for device to boot
Video of it here

Should it be in a directory called /sdcard ?

I had to format the card in a card reader in my PC, then use the Gold Card Creator mentioned elsewhere in the thread. You have to install HTC Sync because enough drivers are in there to at least allow the apps to 'see' the card at physical level, even if the bricked Android doesn't. Set the phone to USB debug mode in Settings/Applications - the phone stays 'on' long enough between reboots to do that and get a CID out of it! Then Gold Card Creator works well enough to get the CID from the SD.
I'm trying this again with a 2GB card to see if makes any difference.

Should it be in a directory called /sdcard ?

Flash Firmware to HTC One M9

Hello,
I bought a HTC One M9 and after 1 year, the device hat a bootloop. When I launched the device, it starts until there was a message "Optimizing Apps" (German: "Apps werden optimiert").
I think, the phone made an update and got an error. (I can't say it, because it's not my one.)
Because of this problems i tried to recover the phone and only got an red triangle. I thought, the phone was broken and sent it to HTC in poland. While the phone was sent in, i found out, that i had to push some Buttons to recover the phone.
Now, HTC said, the phone has a water damage and sent it back to me.
Now I have a phone, which only boots into the bootloader menu. I can't start the recover mode (there comes an error message) and also can't start into the download mode.
The phone also starts only into the bootloader mode (bootloop).
I can communicate to the phone by fastboot (not by adb), but some answers are empty.
For Example:
I enter: fastboot oem get_identifier_token and the answer is empty.
Also the answer for the battery Status is empty. (i can't say it exactly, because i made the tests one week ago, but something like: "accu-capazity: "
I think, because of this answer, the RUU tool stops flashing with the error message, that the accu-capazity is not high enough.
What can I do?
Thanks for any help.
Try sync manager or the original ruu if not rooted.
If rooted try flashing a rom from the sdcard.
The "optimising apps" message is an app you've installed that either doesn't have an odex or you've uninstalled an app and it didn't erase the odex. Rogue apps is the answer to the original problem and you didnt need to mess with the phone.

Hello,
thanks for your Reply. I've forgot this post.
I have an original phone, i didn't root it and also changed something on the System.
I've tried the sync Manager but there's no Option to repair my phone.
I also downloaded a RUU File. It's not verificated for Windows but the Setup seems very trustly.
Do you have other ideas to fix the phone?
According to your last answer, you also think, that this error isn't triggerd by an water damage?
There is no way that message can be caused by water damage.

But is there a way to fix the phone?
I can't get to the download mode, the sd-card method didn't work and the RUU tool says, the accu is to low.
