Problem G1 logo freeze on Update

I have JF 1.1 Holidey version (I think it says: Model no.: Android dev Phone 1; Firmware Version 1.1; Baseband Version: 62.33.20.08H_1.22.12.29 ; Kernel version: 2.6.25-01843-gfea26b0 [email protected] #1 ; Build number: holiday_devphone-userdebug 1.1 UNLOCKED 130444 test-keys) and when I try to update it to jf1.5 it gets stuck on the G1 logo, I tried using differnet updates to and differnt sd cards
and even tried the JF updater and it dosent work (Both the radio update and the update itself), I'm a bit frustrated, my brother rooted the phone for and installed the RC29 rom and the JF rom,
it offered me a system holiday update awaile ago and when I updated it froze on the G1 logo after I waited a long time (about 45 min) I removed the battery and started the phone again.. then I saw about 35MB free space (before I had only 10MB) and I think that from that point it added the holiday but I'm not sure if it wasn't already before that.. I realy need your halp with this.. I can't find a way to boot my phone and start a bootloader..
I search in many threads and couldn't find an answer..
p.s. I was able to get to the fast boot when I press the power + Camera but I don't know how to use it..

Please Search and post in the correct thread/forum. Thank you.

shutdown
home+power
alt-w
system should auto reboot.
if no joy, grab your favorite ROm (I suggest Cyans) and through it on your SDcard's root as update.zip. then
shutdown
home+power
alt+l
alt+w
alt+s
home+back
system will reboot. let it hang for a few minutes, it takes a little bit to restructure the file system and boot for the "first" time. much in the same way as booting up a comp with a fresh install of windows.

you have to hold home for a few it does'nt pop up right away

I held it for over 2 min.. still stuck..

I'm in the same boat. Stuck on G1 logo screen.

As the mod indicated this Topic is discussed many times already.

I'm having the same issue, i just called tmobile and getting it replaced.

ya, your recovery.img file is probably screwed up in the flash. download the dreaimg.sbh file or whatever for the RC29/RC7 and start over from scratch, it should fix your recovery menu. you are able to get into your camera+power menu, so your are not bricked. just be careful next time.

Help!
I think I effed up. I finally was able to install the JF 1.5. I was messing around with themes and then i rebooted it. I hit alt W and now it's stuck on the new android logo. It seems to be freezing and it wont get passed that screen. What can I do, if anything??

[Q] HTC Wildfire bricked? need help /will give reward

hello i just wanted to see if i still could get help with my useless device
Ok so yesterday ive rooted the phone and today i tried to install cyanogen mod 7 rom
i used rom utility which i ve downlaoded from android marketplace
now sometimes my phone boots and gets to the logo loop
ive heard that clearing cache and settings would work but i cant access these menus as my hboot is not reacting to my key presses , i tried to reflash the phone but nothing came with success.
I used android sdk and RUU but nothing with success .
maybe anyone would teamview me or give me step by step tutorial how to get this phone alive again would be appreciated
You will be rewarded

You rooted the Phone with a App from the Market?
You need if your HBoot is lower then 1.* the unrEVOked Tool.
If its 1.* there is no way to flash it.
Okay, maybe it worked with yout root app from the market, dunno, but i dont think so.
So you cant access while pressing volume down (keep holding) and switching on the phone the bootmanager? oO thats no good.
The Logo will stay up to "15minutes (<-?)" after flashing a new Rom. In this time its possible, that you Phone restarts automaticly. its normal. Switch it on an wait up to an half hour. If it keep staying in the boot sequence while showing the logo you got a problem .
I think there isnt a more unsave way than a "Flash by teamviewer". You have also pay attention to the phone while flashing. on TV you cant keep an eye on it.
But how can you reflash your phone without getting access to the bootmanager/ HBoot? I think you habe to access the clockwork to flash cm7 *thinking*.

If u nowhow to use adb try n get a adb logcat if possible
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Hi borris and daddyspud thanks for your reply ,i cant move around in hboot ,my hboot version i 0.80.0003
Ive rooted it using unrevoked with clockwork mod on it.
now even when i get it to boot it just loops in cyanogen animation,should i leave it for 15 minutes to do its thing?
also im new to this so i dont know anything about sdk and adb,all i did is saw the tutorials using it ,so i thought i would use it just to give it a go

HBoot 0.8 is rootable, so its okay.
If there is still an animation while you see the CM Logo everything is fine.
If it freeze for some minutes is there a problem. The Animation shows you "i am working / installing".
Yes, let him do his thing for some Minutes.
I think everting should be okay and after some minutes it will work like normal.
It reboots sometimes it self, but this is also okay.
I dont know... does the new CM7 also install a new HBoot? So its possible why you cant move around in it.
Do you wait about 10 seconds before you try to move around in it? Because in the first seconds it looks like it freezed an then it start a test or something. this takes about 10seconds then you can use it.

Its not bricked if its turning on.
Can you get into recovery? If you can try flashing the 4.1 kernel.
If that doesnt help, go into recovery and do a full wipe. Clear cache and dalvik, and under partitions menu format everything except SD card. Then flash CM7, then the 4.1 kernel
Remember first boot will take 10-15 minutes. Be patient. If youve done everything right you shouldnt have any problems

Hi and thanks for cooperation ,i left my phone on cyanogen animation for an hour and nothing is happening just animation loop constantly.
I've just tried hboot and it searches for the PC 49 DIAG and says not found after that it freezes and i cant use any menu navigation buttons . in hbot and fastboot.
I dont even know what to do next
Much help appreciated guys

oO
thats weird.
the PC49DIAG is a part of the rom it self. So i think you have to try to re-flash it. Did you try it with or without a goldcard?
before you flash your phone whipe ALL datas on it!!!
If i start in bootloader mode i get also all the "missing" errors but i can still use the vol up/down buttons to navigate around.
That should help.
I think you did something wrong while flashing.
the root failed?
you got an error while flashing?
goldcard?
Try to flash a RUU from shipped roms. DONT flash a Froyo rom, you will get the HBoot 1.* if you do this.
Recoverymode doesnt work in the hboot?
If you try recoverymode you will get a blackscreen with an triangle.
most say "press the power button" to enter the recovery mode. if this doesnt work press the "volum up button (hold it) then the power button" this should enter recovery mode.
**EDIT**
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz use a www-rom its without a branding. and use a RUU rom.. and pls dont use a froyo rom. after flashing this your root is gone i think but your phone will be alive again.
dont try the cm7 this time. use a stock rom.

is it alive again?
i talked today to someone who hat exactly the same problem like you.
it was simple to fix the problem... he (you also?) didnt
whipe the phone before he flashed the cm7. thats why it wont stop looping
in the cm7 animation.
after whiping and reflashing everything was fine.
... did you whipe it b4 flashing?

After trying to install the latest GB, my Droid X is caught in a reboot loop

I rooted my phone this morning and tried to install the latest Gingerbread using this guide: https://droidmodderx.wordpress.com/latest-build-gingerbread-2-3-3-4-5-588-with-root/
Of course, my phone for whatever reason restarted after installing the first zip. After restarting, I couldn't get back to recovery or reboot the phone. I tried performing a factory reset, but that won't work either.
Is the phone bricked?

You will have to SBF
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

Thank you, after SBFing my phone and charging, I was able to re-root and install Gingerbread. Thank you so much.

Okay ... I'm having the same issue ... installed GB ... booted the phone up goes through the Moto Logo and the "Droid" & Red Eye then the short vibrate ... then it goes back to the "Droid" & Red Eye and starts all over again ... every once in awhile I catch just a glimpse of the home screen before it cycles all over again and twice I've seen a forceclose screen for Swype ...
I've tried "Safe" Mode (holding the menu key while booting) ... that gets me nothing ...
I've tried to boot into recovery (holding "Home" Key until Triangle Exclaimation), but when I get the triangle and go to hit the "Search" key nothing happens ...
I can't get the phone to stop log enough to get RSD to recognize it so I can flash it ...
Unless it "works" itself out of whatever issue it has with Swype (based on the forceclose error) I can't think of any other way to get it to stop long enough to flash it ...
ANY help would be greatly appreciated ...
Thanks

SBF. To SBF, you need to enter the bootloader. Follow these instructions (they're a little ways down the post):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11118819&postcount=2

Don't forget to wipe data and cache AT LEAST THREE TIMES EACH whenever SBF'ing, or installing a new version of Android or a ROM.

I have flashed almost every rom since the first update to froyo when I got this phone. That's with a 30.01 bootloader. That being said, I never wiped data or cache more than once. I have never had a problem. Wiping multiple times is only necessary if you have problems with it not wiping all the way

If you turn it on while holding "dolume down" do you get the android+! screen? Some go into recovery if you touch the bottom right corner of the screen, but on some you have to hold volume up + down together. I had this problem today!
If you actually can't get to the screen with the android+! then I don't know what else you could do :-(

can it be hardware problem?

1) Did you use the correct flasher? rsd4.9 with motorola driver installed properly.
2) If (1) not working, you could use motorola own service update from their site.

but no results!

don't worry about it, dude.
maybe you can try the way followed:
1.power off your defy;
2.remove the battery from the phone;
3.plug the usb cable into the phone without battery;
4.open RSD and chose one of the roms your listed, but 3.4.2-177-005 NORDIC prefered,
5.take the battery into your phone, now your can see the "connected" on RSD;
6.click the "start" button to flash;
7.wait the phone reboot completely, usually it'll reboot.
if not reboot, remove and on your battery, power on your phone, then press the "volume - and power" botton together, you can enter the robot screen, press volume up and down botton together, usually you can enter the recovery, then chose wipe 3 and 4, totally you can save your defy~~

Be sure to have enough battery while flashing..

Get the phone into bootloader (hold volume down when switch on) and flash an SBF like one from the list you've attached using RSD lite. Surely you have used RSD Lite before?

It seems you have the same issue I have on my Defy as per this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095444
I’m also unable to get into recovery or get to the Android Robot screen using “Power + Volume Down”. Hopefully we will be able to figure it out and get this issue fixed.

This same friend, I have the same problem, is this a hardware problem? I move the roms but not normal
Vol I login recovery - + Power key

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537
Try flashing nordic, if fails arabic, if fails, 2.3.3, if fails probably corrupt nand broken hardware.
Before and after every flash always try to access recovery (volume down) and WIPE. reboot and wait crossing fingers, if it fails to boot flash next sbf, try to go recovery + wipe; reboot, cross more fingers; if fails to boot try next sbf and repeat.
The reason for this is that you can flash a lower version but it wont boot, so you have to flash a higher and higher version until you get one that works.

I tried to help someone with this problem before to no avail!
Everyone who is saying just wipe in recovery, or just flash with RSD blah blah blah, need to understand that he CAN NOT access recovery and HE HAS flashed multiple roms using RSD 4.9, read the OP. Im convinced this is physical hardware failure or similar. We all know the drill to recover our precious defy's in the event of semi-brick ie: bootloop or corrupt code. However this is more than a semi-brick. We are talking about successful flashing and still no access to recovery and infinite M logo!
I walked more than one person with this problem through every known procedure to bring these phones back. Even using sbf_flash for linux doesn't work as this is the only way I flash anymore I don't bother with RSD anymore. The thing is it DOES FLASH SUCCESSFULLY just no recovery or boot!

OMG Exactly!!!! i have same problem and nobody seems to be able to tell me what to do, they keep saying same thing about trying various SBF's and Vol down + power method. No matter what SBF file I successfully flash with, i cannot get into boot recovery mode.

I have heard before from desperate users that they were able to revive their phone by flashing a full 2.3.4 sbf. This however comes with downsides of not being able to downgrade to froyo by flashing ANY froyo sbf's. There is a way to downgrade back to froyo but its a dirty method. Even after downgrade you can't just flash a sbf, you will always need to restore nandroid and flash fixed sbf

[Q] Phone stuck on HTC screen?

My phone is stuck on the start-up HTC screen, the one with the green "HTC" logo non a white background.
I was just changing my font to "Cees Hand Regular" using Font Changer and it was not my first time using this application. Every font change requires a reboot, and when I did so my phone got stuck on the start-up screen.
I'm currently running the latest stable version of Cyangonmod if I'm not wrong, and my phone is still able to enter bootloader mode.
I've already tried Googling around for answers and there were some saying to reflash a new rom. But how can I do so if my phone is in such a state? I also tried pulling out the battery to cool and even cleared my memory.
Can someone help me with my problem? Any help or replies is very much appreciated!

If you can enter bootloader mode, you can enter recovery (Clockworkmod) and can flash a ROM again from there.
Enter bootloader, wait for the file scan to get over, then use the volume keys to navigate to RECOVERY, and press the Power Key. Phone will restart in Clockworkmod. Here, perform a wipe data / factory reset, format /system under Advanced, and re-flash the ROM again.
