no way.....its not working showing


C:\sdk\tools>chmod 755 /data/flash_image
'chmod' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\sdk\tools>cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/flash_image
The system cannot find the path specified.
Did you tried from a terminal emulator on your Legend or via adb instead of Windows? (chmod and cat are Unix's binaries and they can't work with Windows directly)

use a sdcard reader ( if you have one ) and put connectbot.apk ( that you can find here http://code.google.com/p/connectbot/downloads/list ) on your sd...

mount your SD card before trying to unbrick your USB like that :

type :

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

in fastboot mode

after reboot, your phone will see your SD.

If you have a file manager already installed, look for connectbot and install it.

After that , follow unbrink process.

EDIT: Found it in the Market.

Hope they put a link to [How To] Unbrick your Legend in the first post in android development since its a common ailment for Legend and Desire.

First use a adapter and check if u can read your card on the computer, if it does backup your content, and format. (If u have HTC Synk installed, close it)

*insert the card in your phone.
*press volume down + power
*chose fastboot
*connect your phone (make sure it say fastboot usb before u continue)
*open cmd, go to AndroidSDK -> Tools
*Type "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"

Reboot, and your card should be up and running. If needed continue with the steps from the Unbrick guide in dev

Below are what I did before I kept getting the error "Removed SD card"...
Eclair 2.1 with update 1.
1. Create goldcard. Success.
2. Then i went on with the rooting guide, without applying RUU.1.31.
3. Failed in step1-windows.bat, step2-windows.bat. Thus kept creating goldcard.(obviously i am so newbie)
4. Then after sometimes of retrying I get the error after a reboot.

After i got the error, I created a goldcard based on the previous CID i got.
The goldcard enables me to downgrade to RUU.1.31.
But still the error is still there.
Tried the unbrick guide.
But even after I execute "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0",
then follow the guide with "fastboot oem boot", my USB still didn't work.
Ignoring the fact that the guide needs SD capability I did all the steps in the guide(i use softroot, since i never rooted my legend yet!),
all commands went through without error, even retried.
Till now my phone stilll shows the error, "Removed SD card".
Can anyone help me? Paul? anyone?

Card i used: 1. Sandisk 2GB card that comes with the phone(my goldcard), 512MB old microSD card.
Guides used: modaco rooting guide and unbrick guide

Both cards are working well, can be detected in windows and no error when checked with h2testw in windows.
Windows can detect Legend when connected. Drivers all good.

So guys, is this really USB bricked or what it is?

If u guys need any information bout the phone please let me know, i'll try to provide.
