[Q] Help with Error 140 - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys
I want to try out the stock rom for my htc desire. But I get this error " Error [140] Bootloader version error". I have tried with both European roms which are available at the rom developer section.
About my phone settings right now, I did root my phone for some months ago, with revoked, which replaced my bootloader with another bootloader. In the boatloader menu i can see i have HBOOT version 0.80.0000.
Can someone help me out, so I can get the stock rom on my phone again.
Thanx
/JC

have you got any animation at start up from your network, any apps from your network? etc.. de-branding fixed the problem for me with the bootloader error

No, my phone has never been branded. How can I debrand when my operatør dosnt brand their phones ?

Can I find a stock rom somewhere, which can be installed from the sd-card ?
Don't know if its works, but i can install all the other roms from sd card.

Root and flash Orange branded (but unlocked) Desire

Hi,
I just bought a HTC Desire from Orange FR.
I bought an unlock code on ebay, it worked very well.
My question is : If I root my phone, and flash a generic Europe rom, will my phone still be unlocked or not ?
Do I still need to do the gold card ?
Thank you for your help
Yes your phone will still be unlocked, it doesn't matter what you do to the phone now, it will always be unlocked (unless you change mainboard)
No, you shouldn't need GoldCard now either, but if it's not working, then obviously use a GoldCard
Really good to hear,
Thank you for your answer !
You will still need a goldcard to root.
The sim lock has nothing to do with the goldcard.
You will also find that if you flash a rom with a new radio it will sim lock your phone again. You just need to re enter your unlock code to fix that though.

I flashed the new leaked radio and it didn't sim lock my phone, I got branded Orange UK, had to unroot to unlock it then re-root and now I've flashed a few radios and it's still unlocked
And sorry about the information about the GoldCard, I read it and thought that you only needed it if the carrier was locked, not that it was branded, so yes you will need GoldCard
You may have been lucky with the radio flashes! There have been loads of posts from Orange users who have flashed any radio other than the 405 one and it locked their phones. Either way, once you have the unlock code you are sorted anyway

Yer, it sim locks Orange if you haven't already unlocked it, it used to sim lock mine and even if I entered the unlock code it wouldn't unlock, I had to unroot and everything just to unlock, and now I can flash any radio and it stays unlocked
Do I have to root to do this ? :
How to flash ROM
You need to have HTC Sync and Android SDK installed
Download this
Turn off Desire and then turn it on while holding back button to enter bootloader(white screen)
Once in "white screen" press power button again to enter bootloader
Connect Desire with PC
Press Volume Down and than Power to enter Recovery
Now the red triangle should show up, go to folder you downloaded file and press recovery-windows.bat, recovery-mac.sh or recovery-linux.sh depending on which OS you have
Now you are in recovery mode (green screen), press Wipe and than Wipe data/clear storage, than press optical tracker to confirm it
After that press Volume Down to go back to main menu in recovery
Navigate to Flash zip from sdcard using optical tracker, select .zip confirm it and wait until process finish, after that press Reboot system and unplug you Desire
Enjoy your new ROM
I just want to flash a generic Europe rom.
Thank you
Yes you need root to do that
Hi, Thank you for your help..
A few questions please.
I had to make a goldcard even if phone was SIMUnlocked.
It worked well, my phone is now rooted.
Android says there is an update available, 1.21... it tries to install, phone reboot, green logo appears, and then logo change to red ? and reboot, phone not updated.
What does it mean ?
I had a Orange France branded phone, the rooted generic rom is it "Europe" there is French language in it.
Is it needed to update to 1.21 ?
Do I have to find an Europe ROM ?
When I try to flash any ROM (like Europe official ROM) by renaming it to update.zip with recovery menu, if fails, signature error. Do I need the "ClockworkMod" ?
Thank you for all
If your rooted, you can flash any ROM you want, you don't need to update to 1.21.
But for some ROMs it requires you to install a new radio first, so watch out for that.
Well, not sure how to do it.
On recovery menu ? flash a zip from SDCard and select it ?
The OTA 1.21 update fails do flash with a red "?" is it normal ?
If I update with OTA Update, it will remove root access, right ?
Thank you

Correct!
If you flash an OTA or official update from HTC you will lose root.
In recovery, choose flash a zip from sd card, then select the one you want. It's not always needed, but it's a good idea to do a full wipe before each new rom. If you experience odd behaviour and you haven't wiped, then reflash it after wiping.
Thank you for your help and your patience.
Is there any advantage to find a 1.21 rooted update ?
or rooted 1.15 is enough ?
thank you again.
As far as I know 1.21 has a few minor fixes, and a couple of new icons.
Just out of curiosity, what did you root for? Most people do it for apps2sd or to put a custom rom on. I'm just wondering, that's all
Well, I had a branded orange ROM, I wanted to remove it.
I thought I needed to root to flash the phone, maybe I'm wrong. I had to make a goldcard.
I will probably use apps2sd in the next few days, I just need to know if I can still have (need ?) goldcard and apps2sd..
I did not search but I saw you format SD to install apps2sd, I don't know if I can install goldcard again after. I will search for it.
Now my phone is rooted (and unlocked with code before flash), I don't know if I need to keep goldcard.

You didn't need to root if you just wanted to debrand away from Orange, a goldcard and official wwe rom would have done. As you want to use apps2sd then rooting was the right option though!
I'm not 100% sure on the goldcard, if you need it again, but I do know you will wipe your SD card for apps2sd. You need to partition it which basically reformats it.
Yeah I saw this, I have to check if I can restore Goldcard after.
Is WWE recommanded for me ? I guess rooted image is WWE (there French language is in it, why ?) ... My as I'm in France, I don't know if I need to find a European ROM or not
Thank you

You will need goldcard every time you flash something on your phone. That's why I use 2 sd cards: one as a goldcard when I flash roms, and other one for every day, which I partitioned...

[Q] Please HELP! I cannot access recovery or OS

I flashed my HTC Desire with O Desire. It didn't reboot and now it can't access the recovery. I partitioned my sd card before flashing .. but I forgot to put my files back .. so that may be the problem. Is my recovery messed up now ? How would I be able to fix this without going into recovery !
It's a Telus SLCD one. It goes into the bootloader fine, but it won't go into recovery . I've tried using unrevoked again to put another recovery but I realized that I can't activate USB debugging in the bootloader.
Please help, I'm a university student living away from home, and I have no way to contact my family!
I had a similar problem trying to install a custom rom on my telstra slcd desire, and buggered the OS and recovery. I was able to recover back to stock by going into fastboot on the phone then flashing an official RUU from HTC.

Could you give me a step by step on how to do that?
Also would it matter which RUU I use ? I'm planning to try rooting it again anyway.
I'd hate to double post but I need to fix this problem ASAP. I have no way to contact my family because we only communicate through phone. Is there anyway to fix this problem ?
I also tried using an RUU but it failed, probably because I don't have a goldcard. But how can I make a goldcard without the phone ?!
Try running this official stock RUU that is compatible with SLCD Desires, link is here:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...1.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe
I've tried this rom, it doesn't work :S. It's most likely because it's a Telus desire and I have no goldcard. Any suggestions? I'm really running out of ideas. :S
EDIT: Is it because my current version is 1.29.661.1 and the install shield is trying to "upgrade" it to 1.21.405.2 ?
Can you try the "reset device" option in either h-boot or fastboot. I've had a similar ordeal on a hero and that took care of it, I was able to boot back into recovery.

[Q] i think my Desire HD bricked ! please help !

Hi,
I was trying to root my phone with the guide that is on this forum, but then when i restarted my phone, it was stuck on the white "HTC" boot screen. Then i tried to do a "Factory Reset" in hboot and rebooted, and still stuck on the boot screen. I tried to put a PD98IMG.zip as it was prompted in hboot as "no image or wrong file", so i loaded PD98IMG.zip onto my SD card, and still not working. any suggestions ?
my phone is S-ON.
I guess your phone is branded ? If that's the case, you need to follow the tutorial for a goldcard.
Also, if your rom is 1.7x or 1.8x, you can't root it. You have to follow the downgrade tutorial 1st
Mine took 30 mins to boot once. You could try the ruu look in dev section, you just flash it from Windows, then start again. Was your she branded?

I was in the same situation, downgraded ROM and clockwork mod and did a restore and it works fine now
@Howling Wolf - I cannot get the CID for the SD card, because
in the 'adb shell' command, my command prompt says "error: device not found". But i want to know, can i still get the CID through another HTC desire phone ? and can i still update a stock rom with S-ON ? and how do i know if my phone is branded ?
I got my phone from Taiwan, a friend brought it over for me, and when i last checked it was on software version 1.37.921.1 .
@turbo_d - ill try that thnx
did you try installing the htc sync software then do adb devices
ye i did, i installed HTC sync to get the HTC drivers, but from what i noticed is that your phone needs to be "running" instead of being stuck on the white HTC boot screen or even the hboot doesnt pick up the device aswell >.<

@SAPPH1RE - i tried that but thanks for the help !
ok i acquired my CID through linux, but now its telling me
main version is older !
update fail.
any suggiestions ? my current software version of the phone is 1.37, which stock RUU should i be using ?
If you are on 1.37 you should be fine to continue with getting s-off and such. You don't need to upgrade or downgrade your ROM until you achieve s-off. And then you should upgrade to a custom ROM such as LeeDroid.

did you get it working ?
I fixed mine a few weeks back by doing a full wipe and then loading a fresh ROM
Thing is, i cant get my phone to start up, so i need to flash a stock rom, so that i can get my phone started and then do S-OFF. But it keeps telling me "Main Version is older!"
ive tried 2 roms already, 1.32 and 1.72 RUU. What could be the problem ?
thnx problem solved, the gold card wasnt done properly, so i re did everything.
thnx for the help guys !

HTC M9 won't boot after update - can't flash anything, factory reset or unlock bl..?!

Hey guys
got a HTC M9 with cid "O2___102" which won't boot up after stock update.
Phone was not modified yet.
1. Can't unlock bootloader (says: "(bootloader) [KillSwitch] Last Byte is 0X00, disable unlock") - so no way to install custom recovery + custom rom to revive
2. Can't boot into recovery (shows phone with a red exclamation mark but no menu) so no way to factory rest
3. can't find a matching RUU for the "O2___102" CID ...
PLEASE HELP =(
At the screen with the red triangle and exclamation mark, press and hold the power button. While holding the power button, quickly press and release the volume + button. If this gets you to recovery, try a factory reset.

The UK ones for O2 can be used with the German O2 CID, too. You can find them for example in my Collection of Back-to-Stock Files or on androidRUU. But I'm not sure whether a downgrade from android 5.1 is possible with S-ON. The only confirmed downgrades with S-ON were from 1.32.XXX.15 to 1.32.XXX.8. And from my experiences with Denis Meissner and Amr Nasser I would say that a downgrade isn't possible with S-ON if the first and/or the second number of the actual firmware version differ from the ones of the firmware you want to downgrade to.

Yeah, would have suprised me if it worked. As said before even downgrading from 1.40.XXX.X to 1.32.XXX.X seems to be impossible with S-ON. How long did you actually wait until you thought that you phone doesn't boot? The update to android 5.1 and the first boot took around an hour for me. Maybe you just need to wait a little longer. If your phone was unlocked I would suggest you to flash TWRP and use one of my stock backups but...
The only other option I can see right now is trying to find someone who has a java card. With S-OFF you should be able to downgrade with the RUU. (If I remember correctly there were one or two shops advertising their java card services on Android-Hilfe.) This option may not be for free but it should still be cheaper than sending your phone to HTC's repair service or buying a new phone.

whats that java card you're talkin about? Never heard of that.
An appropiate RUU with the latest version should theoretically also work, right?
Problem ist that I cant flash anything custom because bootloader locked and I cant get inside the system to enable the bootloader unlock... =( and the thing has a visually broken volume up key for dropping down, so the htc support won't fix it (for free) I fear.. otherwise I would just give it to them since it has not been modified yet. (not my phone ..)
P.S:
OS Version is 2.10.206.2 - thats the latest one right?

Yes, 2.10.206.2 is the latest version for now. If there were a RUU with your firmware version then using it would be the easiest way to solve your problems. But as far as I know the only existing ones for O2 are for 1.32.206.6 and 1.32.206.15. But with S-OFF you would be able to use the older RUUs, too.
I never used a java card so my knowledge about this topic isn't that outstanding. I know that it is a small, SIM-Card-like looking thing that allows you to S-OFF your phone. Usually they cost several hundred euros/dollars and the number of times you can use them is limited. Since verizon blocks bootloader unlocking these cards are the only option if a verizon users wants to flash anything on his/her phone. Some German phone shops offered S-OFF by java card, too, before sunshine got updated for the M9. That's why I gave you the link to Android-Hilfe. (And that's actually all I know about that topic.)
i need this rru please any one have to uplode link
thanks
Just as an update, I recently bricked this phone trying to flash lineage to it. To fix it, I went to HTC.com and downloaded the current RUU and put the phone into download mode. I know some people say you don't need to "relock" the device, but I don't get errors during the installation with RUU when relocked. Plus, I am running with S-on.

Bootloader and s status are irrelevant. The phone will flash regardless.

Well, I've pretty much managed to screw up my HTC 10. I'm on the latest 3.16.401.2 WWE, S-ON, with the bootloader relocked and stock recovery. I can access the download mode, the bootloader and the stock recovery, but I can't unlock the bootloader since I can't active the OEM unlock option. The phone doesn't boot, it's stuck in a bootloop at the white HTC logo.
Using the OTA available for WWE gives me the Status 7 fail error. Is there anything else I can do, besides from waiting for the Oreo WWE RUU?
Thanks in advance.

I won't even ask how or why....
But yes you could S-off or wait for an RUU to magically appear.
Those are the two options.

It's pretty complicated, but long story short, I was stupid.
I can't S-Off without being able to boot the phone, so well, I'll probably just wait for a RUU.
HTC 10 boot loop
Hello guys,
my wife yesterday tried to update OTA (our htc 10 are completely stock) to OREO from Nougat 2.41.401.41. Something went wrong and it's stuck in a boot loop. I can get in bootloader and tried to install the ota, which I downloaded, manually from SD card, but after verifying it says "error: partition has unexpected content". Is there a way to get the phone back working even with data loss? Thanks really for the help, the phone has never been modified, I am getting crazy reading the forums but I am a total noob ?
i have seen i need a ruu, possibly zip since I can't boot and activate USB debug. Can someone please share a run.zip link at least equal to 2.41.401.41 (European)? Thank you very much
I have the same issue, HTC 10 in a boot loop after applying the OTA Oreo update. I'm able to get into bootloaders and such, but i need the data thats on the phone... Allready tried taking out the SIM and SD-card. Does anyone know if this can be fixed?
Same problem here!
After Reading what the rest of you lot mentioned here, i have the exact same problems! Installed the update from Nougat to Oreo, and the phone went into bootloader! I was stupid enough to delete most of it through TWRP, and even dumber to RELOCK it so that TWRP is out of the Picture. Download mode appears, but the recovery just brings me back to bootloader. Oh yes, and the OS is missing.
and fastboot / adb wont recognize the HTC Connected to the PC anymore.. Guess this is a total Brick? should i send it back since i have a warranty? Will they be able to fix this?
I too was stupid and relocked it while reverting to stock. At this point I had also flashed the stock recovery and recovered to what turned out to be a non-functional backup. (Stuck in boot-loop)
Thankfully Fastboot did however still work while in download mode, and I was able to unlock it again by flashing the same unlock_token.bin that I have kept since I unlocked it the first time, slapped in twrp again and I was good for another go.
M8 can you help out linking some procedure for a noob like me? Should I use a ruu? I am completely stock
I'm no expert in this my self just FYI, but installing a RUU is usually a straight forward process.
You need to download a ruu for your particular CID (Depens on where the phone was sold and what -if any- carrier the phone is locked to.)
I have an european unlocked one so the RUU I used was this: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634797504
You can find more in this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/how-to/stock-stock-collection-recovery-ruu-ota-t3359297
Download the ruu (just short of 2GB in size) , rename it to 2PS6IMG.zip and put it in the root of an SD-card and insert it into the phone.
Reboot it into download mode by holding power+volume down until the grey HTC logo appears.
It should now detect the zip file in the sd-card and ask you to install it. Press volume up to confirm.
This will re-install everything (System image, recovery, firmware etc) all existing data gets destroyed.
Worked like a charm for me, and was able to do a Oreo OTA right away after the first boot.
Thanks a lot for your help, I'll give you a feedback asap.

Take the OTA. Did you flash a Oreo ROM while on nougat firmware? If so updating to Oreo will fix the problem.
Thanks Alot

I have an Indian HTC 10 (SD 820) full stock, no modifications. One day the phone froze and i restarted it and from that day it hasn't booted up. The htc logo shows up while it vibrates, then again the same screen. Stuck in a bootloop. When i get to bootloader and boot to recovery, the grey htc logo comes for 1 second and then it goes back to the original boot animation and it loops again until the phone dies. Whenever i plug my phone to the charger, it immediately gets stuck into the boot loop. Please help me !! Any fix please !

Hold the power button and the volume down button to reboot to download mode. From there you can flash an RUU.zip to fix it.
What is needed to direct you to the proper RUU.zip to download and flash is for you to boot to download mode and post here what it says next to "OS"
