[Q] Black Screen of death - Desire General

i found the solution here "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748498"
but its for the one who downgraded their phone. in my case, i got the black screen after installing a RUU ROM. How should i fix my Desire?
if i should use that instruction, what should i do before doing it? Downgrade without display?.. kinda messed up.

Downgrade using the 0.92 to 0.80 method. Then use this to fix the screen: http://bit.ly/dyVmpm

which method. im kinda confused because in your post you said the method wouldnt work. Does that means i have to downgrade my phone without display? is that possible?

i mean which method of downgrading?

Perform steps 1-6: http://www.tolxdorff.net/projects/android/downgrade.php?step=2
Then perform steps from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=748498
All is done without the LCD working. You should wait about 30 mins for both files to flash.

thanks for replying. Does that mean i need to downgrade it without display?

if that so. How should i know if im choosing "yes" or "No".. on step 3.4

You only do step 1.1-6.

wait wait. 1.1 to 6/1.1 until 1.6 /1.1 until 6.... please. Thanks for helping me, but im kinda confuse.

Do the steps in the red rectangle

You just need to follow step 1, parts 1 to 6. You will not be able to see anything while doing it.
Once you have done this, your phone will have stock unbranded 2.1 with hboot 0.80. You must remove the PB99IMG.zip file before trying to upgrade using update.zip, as otherwise the phone will just try to run the downgrade again.

now its clear. i got two desire here. one is my sisters. at the step 4 is simlock right? if it is. How many minutes should i wait?

After part 4 of step 1 you will have to wait a while for the downgrade to complete. Give it 30 minutes to be safe. Remember that you still won't have a display at this point, but you will now be able to fix the problem with the FroYo update.

was very evry confused. i hope someone create a video about this one using infected phone.

[Q] Restoring/Unrooting back to 2.1 Stock.

Hi.
I'm selling my Desire so I need to restore it back to stock 2.1.
I followed this guide and when I clicked "upgrade" it came back with error "[155]: Unknown Error"
My phone is unbranded, bought sim free. It is running a custom 2.2 rom at the moment. Bootloader is 0.75.
Could someone advise on how I would go about doing this?
Thanks.
this guide help me to restore my phone
Did you read what I wrote?
I said I followed that and after running the HTC RUU and following the steps I eventually get an error and it doesn't go any further.
Which RUU are you trying to flash with?
The one that was linked to in the guide. "Unroot-RUU-Disire-1.15.405.4"
Ok, I wouldn't bother with that. Try this RUU instead:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...1.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe
Since your phone is unbranded you won't need a goldcard.
Hi,
I tired that and I'm still getting the same error.

Thanks.
Are you on Windows 7 64bit? That causes problems with running RUUs for a lot of people.
That RUU itself should otherwise work fine.
Yes, I'm running Windows 7 x64. =/
Is there anyway of getting around this issue? Withouth installing another OS of course.
Thanks.
Yeah. If you have an AMOLED screen you can flash another way.
Download this file:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.zip
Rename it to PB99IMG.zip (ensure the extension is not .zip.zip) and put it at the top level of your sdcard. Start the phone up in hboot mode (vol down + power), wait for it to find the file and then say yes to the flash prompt.
Don't do this on an SLCD phone or it'll break the display.
i have unrooted many times using w7 x64. i just follow the guide with wwe
Thanks I'll give that a shot!
How can I tell which screen I have? I got my Desire back in April if that's any help.
Thanks again.
Anything before July is always an AMOLED screen, so you're ok.
As long as you didn't upgrade to stock froyo that file should flash the phone fine as it doesn't require any communication with a computer.
Much love. <3
Worked a treat.
Now running 2.1-update1. I'll leave that as it is so the buyer can choose to upgrade to OTA 2.2 or root it.
Thanks again <3

[Q] HTC Desire 2.2 (froyo) stock root?

Hi!
I am total new to android, I got my HTC Desire for 2weeks now, I search the internet and on this forums and it seems to be nice to root my desire, now im a bit scared to do it, what can go wrong? Can I lost data? do I need to backup first? after I "rooted" my desire i still have the stock android 2.2 on it? (and with all my settings, messages and contacts)? my desire is an unbranded device. I heard that unrevoked 3.2 can root my device? what are the requirements for this? if I go to system information on my desire it shows that i have kernel version: 2.6.32.15-g6a358a9. So can I root my device? Do I still have warranty if I root? I got my desire for two weeks now so I don't want to brick my phone. I got a PC with windows 7 x64 and a laptop with windows 7 x32 and Ubuntu dualboot.
Can someone help me what I need to do?
(sorry for my bad English I am from Belgium)
Thanks in advance!
What software version are you on (same screen as the kernel version)? You want to make sure you can get an RUU file incase you ever need to go back to stock.
Rooting in itself won't wipe data. You will if you change ROM, though. Why do you want to root?

I took a picture so you can see all that stuff.. what you mean with i can get a RUU file? I want to root because then I can use apps2sd because i almost get always an notification that the phones memory is almost full :s so i need to remove other apps to install an other sometimes. And maybe some theme stuff but im not sure, because you need a custom rom for that right? or you think its not worth to root my desire? are there performance improvements? with stock or rooted ?
Thanks for the fast reply!

You [and all cdma variants (like me even)] will have to wait for kernel development as alquez states in his OP of that thread.
or
Restore your nandroid backup of stock (easiest fix).

Hope it comes soon...I forgot to make a backup before i went to cm7....however I do have a second Wildfire S thats rooted but for some reason i cant get into recovery to back up that ROM....it gets stuck on the white HTC screen....any ideas?
ideas
Can you boot to hboot [on second phone]? If not you are either semi-bricked or bricked. Still assuming you cannot get into hboot, go download the htc sync drivers, set up your environment [Google has a guide that walks you through it], then with the phone connected to your computer [and on] type "adb devices" If you get a return that looks like a short serial, it can be fixed... If no devices found... well, it will take someone smarter than me If you can boot to hboot, it can be fixed no problemo... Hit me back with results [via pm] I can't follow every thread I respond to.
Regards,
Rob
PS it sounds like the 2nd phone has had either a bad recovery or wrong boot.img flashed to it w/o knowing more

Hi i would like to ask is it possible for me to downgreat hboot from 1.08.099 to any other down?? My phone is from T-Mobile Poland. I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952 and do step by step till when is time to run RUU on the PC. In this point i have still problem error 131 or 155. Afster flashing system and boot and open bltools and go to "Superversion" and next to Lock bootloader i see "LOCKED OOW" at the top in hboot 1.08.0099" so all is good. But then is time to RUU and my i cant done this step. I try before RUU flashing oryginal Recovery, set my phone on Locked, Relocked and Unlocked but still doesn't work fine. I create GoldCard but this dont help me.
And another problem any time ago when i run bootloader a saw the green word it was searching PG76IMG and looking for error on sd card (probably) you shoud know what i mean. But now i haven't got this? Why??

if you have your original ruu,downgrading bootloader will be so easy.about flashing with ruu just create goldcard again,and set bootloader only on locked or relocked when you are flashing ruu's..unlocked bootloader may bricked your phone.

Rooting question N910v just purchased. Can I rooting?

I have read countless post and have been to a dozen websites and I guess I am just confused if I can root this device with the current status, software/updates and security patches.

Yes, you can.
It requires unlocking the boot loader and installing a custom recovery. There are a few threads about it which makes it somewhat confusing. What it boils down to is do you want to use LL or MM to unlock it and once that is done do you wish to use the stock TW LL/MM or a custom ROM (TW/AOSP based).
Easiest to follow instructions here, uses LL to root:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...asy-guide-how-to-root-verizon-galaxy-t3454593
The hybrid way (LL/MM software mix, will require working SIM/Data connection to complete rooting), once done will be full MM based:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...t/howto-bootloader-unlock-upgrade-to-t3398144
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/shortcut-to-rooted-n910vvru2cqi2-t3763451
IF you want to run a custom rom, unlock the bootloader as outlined in the links above, install TWRP and then the ROM of your choice (TW/AOSP).
I just did both ways above not too long ago on a new to me 910v, then I ended up using the files from this post on the modified/hybrid way to root:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76813374&postcount=16
Then I upgraded the partial firmware from here to CQL1:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15720#downloads
Yes, that means I wiped and rooted all 3 ways linked/described (BPA1, CPD1 & CQI2/CQL1) trying out the files/software. All 3 tries worked fine. I will say for me, Kingoroot worked and kingroot did not. YMMV

Thx for all the info and the great news! I guess I thought that the phone might have been updated to far. I will give it a shot. Thanks again.

Hello, I just bought a N910V with same build number as yours. Did you have a chance to see if it can be rooted? (it seems all the instructions say cannot, just want to confirm. Thanks)

Yes I was able to follow the links and downgrade and unlock the bootloader and root and install a custom rom.
