I am the stupid guy that got it!
The phone is bricked and in a boot loop of some kind.
here is a video of another phone with the same problem (identical):
YouTube - Hero bricked after radio update!
and here is a story that fits the profile but in my case didn't work :
A few days ago I bricked my phone. I performed a SPL flash which seemed to go ok, the phone rebooted and then just stuck at the first splash screen. I waited for 30 minutes and it was still there.
I then removed the battery, reinserted it, and tried booting into recovery mode. Nothing happened, it just stuck at the first splash screen.
So I removed the battery again, reinserted it, and tried booting into fastboot mode. Nothing happened, it just stuck at the first splash screen.
I repeated these steps a few times with the same result.
I tried booting it with the USB cable attached, the result was the same, and Windows showed the phone as an 'unrecognized device'.
At this point, I was nearly crying, my phone was a brick.
Then, for some reason I tried the following:
-On the PC, i ran the command 'fastboot boot recoveryimage.img'.
-At this point the command says 'waiting for device' (or something like that).
-I removed the battery.
-I Connected USB.
-I inserted the battery.
-I booted the phone while holding the HOME key.
-The phone still froze at the first splash screen, but then suddenly, the waiting fastboot command detected the phone and booted the recovery image! Yay!
mine is like the youtobe video so it doesn't respond to any of the following commands : fastboot, fast recovery, turn on with home, or any other stuff.
I see it as unknown device, and if I press the volume "up" key and then I put the battery back on it vibrates 3 times and the light switches to green.
so? any help in this matter? or any conclusion of it all?
TY
