jkhunea recommended that I post here regarding a "failed" radio update that I performed. The thread that I followed is Droid Incredible Froyo 2.2 Leaked OTA version here. I just performed the radio (non-rooted) update and stopped prior to the unrevoked3 rooting procedure.
My device is not rooted and was recently factory reset (internal reset in the Android OS). Nothing special on the device, just trying to upgrade the radio so I could tether.
I followed everything to the letter and everything with the update appeared normal. It took approx 15 minutes prior to the last reboot when no further progress was made.
I waited nearly two hours before pulling the plug as the device would not boot past the "htc Incredible" splash screen (after applying update) and booting at least twice on its own.
I cannot get to the bootloader/recovery screen any longer and I am only presented with the "htc" screen as mentioned. I tried the power/vol down buttons (and the vol up just to be sure) and get nothing but the splash screen.
I plugged the device into a Windows computer and the hardware wizard saw it as a qualcomm device and could not load a driver. I was considering the use of the unrevoked3 software as a way around but cannot get to debugging portion of the device.
If the device is off, I get the re-charge led (amber), if turned on, I get the screen mentioned.
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am very frustrated.
