HELP (Am I bricked?)

klaberte · May 10, 2012

I was using Kevin's multi-tool and managed to screw something up (my fault, not the tools). Basically, I formatted the /system partition, and it seems my recovery is gone as well.

My current status is EXPRESS PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.13.0000

It seems that if I could find the right RUU file, I could flash it using fastboot. The problem seems that I formatted /system, so there is no way to enable USB Debugging, thus adb doesn't work from fastboot mode.

Could someone tell me which RUU I should try?

GB and HC and HC to GB both here. Just plug your tablet into your computer and run the one you want.

Both were?

If you can get into Fastboot , you can flash recovery

How did you manage to format system while still S-ON and locked?

I had S-OFF and CWM, then formatted /System. Then went back to Fastboot, did something stupid, and was stuck. Sadly I was also near an empty battery. Fortunately I also have a Flyer, so last night, did battery transplant surgery. Now I am good!

Due respect (and I do appreciate your work here!), but I totally disagree. The dev sub-forum is filled with people asking questions and help from the software downloaded from here, as well as countless threads about S-Off, downgrading, recovery from brick, etc. The multi-tool is downloaded in this sub-forum. Plus I suspect the people that know about kev's multi-tool that don't read this sub-forum is very small.

I could have posted in General or Q/A, but I doubt I would have had much response.

There are only 3 pages worth of threads and none of which are about troubleshooting a specific issue. You're not going to get much help if you going to be annoying about getting attention. As you said yourself, the problem isn't the tool's fault so it's not even relevant where you downloaded it. You seem to have a problem following directions. I don't think devs can help you with that. As for the proper RUU, common sense searching will find that.

Thanks for the snarky response, Mr./Ms. Joined 3 Weeks Ago with 0 Thanks. You certainly should consider yourself qualified to determine what and how things go on around here.

Anyway, I don't want this thread to create any more distractions.

MODS please move or remove at your pleasure.

as for you.... remember to read the rules, be considerate man. Both of you are new here. Give him the link or help requested then scold him but not so rough. Send the developer a thing saying hey this guy needs help. K?

No I have a evo view 4G. I happen to have a flyer as well. I mentioned the flyer just because I pulled a battery from the flyer to deal with my battery bricked view. And I've been around xda for 5 yrs, not so new...

But like Kev said (and I said in post 7), I'm good now, and the thread can get nuked.
