Endless boot, original T-Mobile rom needed

[Guest kristijan_mk]

first of all, excellent job everybody involved in releasing 2.1. It's a huge job you've done :rolleyes:

back to my problem. Since this morning my Pulse is in endless boot (T-Mobile logo, Android logo, T-Mobile logo, T-Mobile logo, T-Mobile logo... you get the picture)

I was using the original (without December update) T-Mobile ROM. This problem enticed me to install 2.1. (when i'm already going to wipe...) but from what i've seen i first have to install the december update, and i can't do that (as described) since i can't get to settings.

My theory is that i have to install the september ROM first, and than follow the steps till 2.1

So my questions are

-is there any other way to do this?

-if not, can somebody point me where i can find the september T-Mobile ROM? (i searched the forum in the last 1 hour and i couldn't find it)

The November Pulse software is available here:

(2nd item on the page)

Copy the dload folder to the root of your SD card, then power on the phone holding the end call and volume up buttons.

You can use the december update like that too, same steps just different download link.

You could also just flash mcr via recovery.

thank you all

i found out the t-mobile uk link (somewhere in the 3 am :rolleyes:) and now the phone is in its original state. I wasn't aware of end call + volume up function :D

I have the same problem, my phone is an endless booting, I have the 1.7 Vanilla on it, but error messages are coming for flashing zip from sd, and for the "dload style" update as well..

for the 2.1 update while recovery:

E: corrupt file:

system/usr/srec/config/en.us/models/generic8_m.swimd1

for 1.7 Vanilla while recovery:

E: corrupt file:

system/app/gmail.apk

and for nand backup, it writes something like this:

error, please run adb nand-shrestore

the dload updates stops after 2 "pink lines", in the step one, while unpacking, "update failed" message on screen, the boot stops, and the buttons are flashing.

any usable ideas?
