Yes, this is just an idea (i am a noob with Linux / android )

Cool but I can still test.

I'm new to the world of Android but not that new to Unix :P

But why would you think that it flipped to USB OTG mode?

Will reply as soon as I test it.

I found this while trying to port the kernel to a more forward version: #define ULPI_VERIFY_MAX_LOOP_COUNT 3 static int msm_hsusb_phy_verify_access(void __iomem *usb_base) { int temp

Hey thanks for the mentions guys, but I don't really feel I'm contributing a lot. What I found is that the board_bravo.usb_h2w_sw parameter is used in the board_bravo kernel module to load some stuff:

I'm afraid this issue is a real tricky one. It would be good to pack some advice for the lucky ones that still have a working phone. As far as I have understood and with my direct (:rolleyes:) e

Paul, maybe USB port is now in USB OTG mode (driver maybe in the kernel of the test rom)? Don't have the hardware to test it ....

For the sake of it, I've tested but the device can't see the hard disk so it's not on host mode too I believe.

Did you verify this by inspecting the dmesg output?

Hope some of you geniuses find a solution :-).

First thing after I'm back on full speed I'm gonna purchase my Ad-Free MoDaCo subscription and cook myself the perfect ROM (without A2SD LOL)

No new updates i fear, a desire without usb, bt and fm is not mouch fun

I'm seeing all these ROMs that I want to flash but cannot... sigh :)

(don't care about BT or USB data connectivity, FM is a bit of an inconvenience)... really only need USB for flashing recovery, other than that, hardly use it.. :|

Yes, I've checked dmesg and /dev, no joy.

Any other idea? :)

I think we can do a lot when we can get in at command mode.

There are a lot of at commands that can be used.

Only problem is how do we get in that mode.

On other phones it is rtask a

so i tried fastboot oem rtask a

but then i only 3 dots as reponce and everything seems to hang. Grrrrr

Greetings from a vastloper

edit:

When i look in the hboot file i see text like:

AT@CID= %d: Change CID to

AT+HTC_DM=C841746477616F70

%d: Unlock NV with SPC DM000.dat..............

AT@SIMLOCK=1,%x,%s

AT@CID=12345678

ÿÿc AT-Command Interpreter ready

AT@SECURITY=

What we need is a way to security unlock the bootloader or an engeneering spl. Some people think that a simple oem eraseconfig would help

It's a device with an HTC own kernel, too. I don't believe in a real brick or so, it just s***s that HTC have the SPL Security locked

fastboot oem rtask eraseconfig seems to be a valid rtask command also indeed

same 3 dots then phone hanging.

Hmmm

Need differend fastboot program perhaps ?

The command is just fastboot oem eraseconfig, dunno if there's another fastboot app

You can flash via fastboot oem rebootRUU then fastboot flash zip zipfilename (where zipfilename is a signed zip).

I have a question - did any of those having this issue use the 'USB mount' function in recovery?

P

Sorry guys, but this doesn't help me.

I can get into fastboot by holding the 'back' button and turning on. And I can navigate to the androidsdk/tools folder no problem. But when I here type fastboot rebootRUU I get an error.

Which file should be where on my harddrive, and on my SD-card?

The same question goes with the 'fastboot flash zip zipfilename'. Which zip is this, where should I put it, and where do I get it?

I just want to flash a stock ROM - and I can't by just running the .exe file. It says something about having 'too many images' or something. And it gets stuck while 'waiting for bootloader'. This runs to 100, and then gives me an error-message. Annoying!

Thanks guys :-)

Sorry - what it says when I run the .exe file is:

Imageversion: version-main FAILED (status read failed (Too many links))

After trying to update (no bootloader found) I get an Error (171): USB-connection-error

Hmmmm. What does that mean?

For me it worked with the following:

take out sim an sdcard

get in fastboot

plug desire to your pc

wait some seconds

run the exe

Just tried removing both SD and SIM-card - but still no joy. Same error - gets stuck while waiting for Bootloader.

GRRRRRR - really annoying. But can't I use the fastboot commands - how, and with which files where?

Can you unzip the exe? I think there should be the images inside

Nope - I rename the .exe file to .zip - and I'm able to extract the boot.img file - but not the large .zip-file.

What am I doing wrong?

... and suppose I get it all unzipped - where should I place the files?

in the c:\androidsdk\tools folder?

What OS are you using?

If Paul can get hold of an Eng Bootloader, those commands would definitely work - it's all a question about whether we can get one, or are we stuck with no usb/recovery mode forever... :|

I think we just need to find a way to make this rtask function work.

All the functions are allready implemented in the hboot but somehow the phone is crashing when trying to do them now.

I need to remove the battery to make phone work again after trying an implemented rtask command.

Even a batterytest command crashes the phone. Dont think that command is locked.
