HTC Hero :: Phone Hanged - Removed Battery - 2.1 Update Failed
Jun 28, 2010
I just updated my phone to 2.1. What happened, was this: reboot, then the yellow bar was filling itself. So far so good. After the yellow bar was filled 100%, it took a while, and after that the box icon changed into a white triangle with a yellow exclamation mark. The yellow progress bar disappeared. I waited 10-15 minutes, display didn't change. After that I removed the battery, waited a while, plugged it back in. Pressed power button, and the result was "HERO" nothing more. Waited a long time. Nothing happened. So now I have a broken phone, with nothing working. Does someone have any clues on how to fix this?

I tried the to update software on my X2, and ota all went fine until the last step - installing the updates on my phone, there it failed with massage that it could not install and I should check my battery and then that I should try again after recharge. I tried after recharging and still the same error. Now I cannot even start my phone - after switching on it stops with SonyEricsson symbol and hangs there. I need the phone.

Have tried installing update on my X2 but it wont install onto my phone-but update fails on software install. Keeps telling me to check that my battery is full and retry or contact support? Have followed the update sequence as instructed but still no joy and now my phone will only load up the service mode?

I got the message for the OTA update today. After it downloaded nothing happened. I try looking at Settings>About Phone>System Update, but my phone does not that "System Update". My Firmware is 1.5, and my Software Version reads 1.0.0.A6288. Build Number is 2.73.751.4 146733 CL#61205 release-keys. Why didn't my phone update?

I have tried every trick from every site. But ever since I rooted my wife's phone its battery doesn't last pass 7-8 hours. I done the *#*#4636#*#*, the gps on networks off, auto killer on aggressive, battery defender and still her battery doesn't last. She keeps blue tooth on all the time and has three email accounts set @ every 15 mins. She says that when she was stock 1.5 it lasted all day. But the stock rom would restart by itself all the time. Boy I wish that I never rooted her phone. I've upgraded radio without any change in performance. What 2.1rom is easiest on the battery? Can I flash her back to a 1.5 rooted rom that is not a battery hog. I love my Fresh 2.0d I'm 75% at night before I go to bed. But I don't blue tooth either.

I did a factory reset and this app seems gone from the marketplace? Has it been removed?

I selected in recovery mode: Wipe Data / Factory Reset -> delete all user data
The screen went blank and I had to remove the battery.
Now the phone is jammed and won't start again. The white THL blinks and the screen goes black. Also it won't go to the recovery mode.

right so the bottom buttons were working fine, but the next day, the back button takes me to the home screen :S so if im on facebook, press the back button, instead of going to the previous page. and i also set up the draw thing to unlock it, but as it was raining a little it said i entered it wrong too many times and asked for the google mail thing... but i really have no rememberence of making one, which is so ******* annyoying.
the only way ive found out to solve this problem is doin a phone software update, however as my bottom right button is working properly, everytime i hold it down to plug the phones usb, the phone just starts normally, so basically i cannot do the system update.

I removed the People widget. From the main screen, scroll right. Hold down the People widget and remove it. I was getting 10 hours daily off a full charge. Today I got up to 14. Normally I lose 10% per hour. In the morning, I was losing 5%. I was hoping to double my 10 hours and get to 20 but I did make it to 14.
I was also losing 15-20% in the first hour battery drain. After removing the people widget, I only lost 3%! Previously, I tried everything. Turned off GPS, formatted SD card, hard reset, changed from GSM to CDMA, charging while the phone was off/on repeatedly. I have hardware version 003.

I have to draw list of 30 articles. I tired using list view but there was some problem as I wanted to user alternate colors like first is white and 2nd is blue where as again 3rd is white and 4th is blue and it goes on..
So I decided to have scrollview and table into it. I set the view using setcontentview which shows loading dialog. then in aysnc task's "doInBackground" method i fetch all articles into the object and then in "onPostExecute" I run a for loop on the object and in each loop i make table row insert article and then insert row into table. and then dismiss loading dialog box.
As i have tabular view in my app and If i remove loading dialog box. While the UI is rendered if someone clicks on other tab. UI is hanged up, After loading all table rows It goes to other tab.

I did not realize that we wouldn't be able to use the OTA if we removed bloatware.. I guess I didn't read that section/warning.. What can I do to get the OTA?

After updating my Hero to 2.1 I have noticed that the battery drains much quicker now even after I've done all recommended tweaks (switching off Always On, reducing frequency of updates etc.). Has anyone also experienced the same problem. Some people mentioned that battery life of their phones improved after the update.

After updating my Hero the other day I have noticed a marked decrease in battery life. This started the very next day after updating my hero.
Right now I'm at 41% of battery life left after unplugging from the charger about 9 hours ago. For the past few weeks, I have been around 65%-70% at this time of day, and I'd normally be at about 15%-20% at 10:30 when I go to bed.
Is anyone else experiencing a similar decrease in battery life after the update?

This is very strange but whether i do a simple wipe or rollback to stock rom my downloaded apps don't seem to have been erased? The ROM i was intending to load loaded fine and everything seems to work I'm just baffled how my downloaded apps could survive a wipe and RUU reflash. i don't use apposed btw...

I have a X10 Mini which is an O2 Pay as you go purchased in England. I followed the Sony Erricsson instructions posted on youtube to upgrade my phone. After a fun filled few hours the other evening, and after rebooting the phone for a final time the phone was still at v1.6. The PC companion software downloded and appeared to update the phone correctly. Now if I try to repeat the upgrade process the PC companion says that the phone's software is up to date.

Is this happening to anyone else? sucks man...This is my second handset was flawless until this most recent update. After my phone comes off from a full charge it will die after 4 hours, no exaggeration! I have already tried closing the unwanted "syncing apps" still no good. What the heck should I do?

Just got my hero couple of days ago. I've linked my google contact with facebook, but sometimes it just reset somehow and I've linked it twice now, really annoying, cause it takes loads of times.

Yesterday I clicked the update button on my droid, and now my droid is dead, all that appears is the motorola logo, even after pulling the battery. Of course technical support at Verizon has no clue what is wrong. The phone will not even turn off unless i take the battery out, the motorola logo shows until the phone goes dead.
As this is my second droid, I don't know that I want a 3rd one. My opinion is that the droid would be a neat smartphone-- if it worked. I doubt that anyone could ever consider using the droid as a business phone, since it randomly quits working. I've had many cell phones and blackberries and never had to return any of them.
I have the best buy protection plan, but not sure that entitles me to a new or different phone, since my droid is about 3 months old.

All, I rooted my phone today for 2.1, and it's working great. I removed most of the crap sprint applications I didn't want (including their music player). Only issue I have is I seem to have lost the ability to set an mp3 as the ringtone. I do have some mp3's in the /media/audio/ringtones folder, but they don't show up in the ringtones list.

Last night I did the check updates *#*#2432546#*#* and to my surprise a few minutes later a system update appeared. I was elated and accepted the download and restart. I am still waiting... I have the explanation mark and the little android guy on the front of the screen, but no restart. What do I do next? I am in a slightly weak area, but normally can get 3G and decent downloads. So now I am unsure how to proceed. Was the restart suppose to be automatic? That is what I was led to believe.

I am sitting here trying to get my phone back to the way it came out of the box. Now I rooted it a month or so back and cant remember how I did it. So I am reading along and doing all these methods and not one of them seemed to work for me. I think I am making some progress though. Before I used to have an app called super user. In the midst of all these things I was doing it is now gone. I formatted the sd card and put the factory original backup back on there.
But now I go to update (to 3.29.651.5) and it wont let me. When I click on the update it says it going to restart and then it takes me to the recovery screen saying that It has been aborted. It says.....
Build : RA-evo-v1.7.0.2

Yesterday morning I was happy to see that I had received the 2.2 OTA update. I readily clicked yes to apply, and my (rooted I should probably mention) phone rebooted and and just had the little Android guy next to a triangle with an exclamation point in it. At this point if I pressed any buttons, the Clockwork recovery mod tool popped up. I rebooted the phone and tried again with the same results. Thinking that it might have something to do with my phone being rooted, I followed the steps to unroot it. That went fine, but now when I check it says that my system is up to date and it won't download the OTA. So I even followed the steps to manually apply the 2.2 update, and while in the recovery screen, it fails and says that update.zip has errors or something. I've re downloaded it and have tried everything else that I could think of. Is there any way for me to get my phone to 2.2 now?

I have created a Goldcard using the tool on this Forum. It appears okay when I check the loaded files on the card. When I try and run Test RUU it fails to update my ROM from 1.15.110.11. (T-Mobile UK). I thought HTC Sync might be the problem as I had been using disk drive to connect my phone, so I reinstalled it. HTC Sync causes my Windows Explorer to crash but I managed a workaround and tried running Test RUU again. Once again the update failed. On my phone screen I get the message CID incorrect Update fail which sounds like a Goldcard problem.

Well ive been searching the internet all day for others in my boat. Everywhere I look people who rooted there 2.1 did the Official OTA with no issues. I am not looking to root 2.2. All i want to do is get 2.2 OTA from verizon. I keep getting Failed to Update. I unfroze all the bloatware. what else do i need to do? right now i am trying to unroot using that one click program and that isnt working either.

I have the Super User Root, Wireless Tether and Titanium Backup on my Droid X. I wanted to update to 2.2 and once I download it and try to upload it, it keeps giving me an Update Failed notice. Is there anything I'm missing?
