Hi there,
i did a terrible mistake and don't know what to do right now. I was using a CustomROM and updated the wrong file, so the phone hangs while booting. Sadly, i didn't realized that a custom recovery wasn't installed properly earlier. Are there some ADB/Fastboot commands i can work with to "relife" my phone!?
Any king of help would be much appreciated!
This might help... go to recovery then partitions menu then mount /sdcard then connect your phone to your pc should give you access to the sd card so you can load a new rom on to it
I had a very similar problem this evening, which had a happy ending!
What worked for me was Unrevoked 3, (If youre using win 7 x64, and it fails you might want to try a different computer)
Oh and Lee815, unfortunately if he can't access the recovery menu, the option isn't available.

i thought you could always access the recovery menu no matter what you have done to your phone... i had the same issue once where i lost the nandriod recovery & the rom i was installing froze, i had no choice but to do it the way i said
It sounds like the wrong radio for the ROM. Boot to recovery and reflash the correct radio.

Shouldn't be a problem. Do you have a permanent recovery on your phone, like Clockworkmod or Amonra?
Is so, try the following:
-Turn on the phone while holding the back button
-Select "bootloader"
-Select "recovery"
Then just active USB Mass Storage mode, pull over the ROM you really want and flash it. No problem
If the phone is powering on then there is around a 90% chance you can use recovery. And if it powers on at all, your not bricked.

Hello.
I'm pretty sure i bricked my HTC desire yesterday when trying to flash LeeDroids Mod. My phone hangs at the three green HTC letters and it has been like this the whole night. I've tried taking out the battery and things like that but it still hangs. Even when triyng to do a recovery. So i searched the forum to find out how to unbrick the phone and i found a nice thread that explains how to get acces to the SD again and then how to unbrick the USB connection. But I havent been able to try this out yet since i cannot find out how to enter commands when in fastboot. I know I need to be connected with a USB-cable to the PC, but what else do I have to do?
Hope someone can help 'cause I would really love to have my HTC Desire working again so that i can try out more cool FroYo mods from this lovely forum.

you have to use adb, google the android sdk and start there
All you need to do is boot into FASTBOOT, plug in your USB and run an RUU to get back to stock (assumg one is available for your phone) and then root again, had to do it myself the other day
you do not have to do ANY of this
if you are using clockworkmod or any custom recovery then there is the option to mount USB storage in which you can put on a backup or any other rom onto your sd card, unmount usb storage, and flash it, all in one.

How do I do that when my phone doesnt boot? As i wrote in the first post it is stock at the 3 green HTC letters. I was using clockworkmod to flash, but as I wrote i cannot boot into andoid atm.
@AndroHero: Can you please give me a link or something? I have tried a lot of things, but i doesnt seem to work, so I would like to be certain that the link and guide im using is right.

Have you booted the phone while holding the volume down and then selecting recovery, then when recovery boots, press volume up and power then select "apply update.zip" ?
The problem is that when i choose recovery it freezes aswell. The screen with the phone and the little red triangle freezes, so i cannot choose recovery.

What is RUU?
Edit: Maybe I need someone to make a step by step noob guide? Im totally lost. Ive flashed my Desire lots of times before and ive never had a single problem, but right now i really dont know what to do and how to do?
If you're asking questions about RUU's then maybe rooting wasn't for you. It's basic stuff. You need a grasp of the basics before trying something advanced!
Basically it's the official ROM file from HTC/your phone vendor...
Okay. Thanks. I thought that RUU was something like that but I just couldnt see how i should be able to acces any files right now. As i wrote before the phone freezes at the picture of a phone with the red triangle, and i am not able to get any further that that. I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me how and what to do next?
I had the same problem a few days ago. For me it worked to just go through the rooting process again, you can find the steps on modaco (just step 1 of r6), I can't link them at the moment I'm at work and it seems I can't open modaco from here.
Anyways if you follow step 1 you can access the recovery again and the phone will boot past the HTC logo screen.
Also these steps are well documented on modaco.
Try this first since it will save you the step of running the RUU, which I wasn't able to (somehow the software complained my battery was below 30%, which it wasn't)
Good luck hope this solves it for you.

You don't need to go into recovery! boot into FASTBOOT and then leave it at that. Plug the phone in and it will then say FASTBOOT USB. Then run the RUU your phone came with originally. You don't need to go anywhere near Recovery
I am pretty certain that ive found a solution now. I deserve a fist in the nuts for being so stupid not to press volume up + power when trying to get into recovery mode. But fortunately dnlgee asked if i had remembered this. Now that ive gotten this far i should be able to solve the rest. I will however return if im still unable to solve it.

Ah I missed that part, I couldn't access recovery either. Only thing left working was fastboot for me. All other options would hang on the HTC logo screen.

Stuck in a bootloop? Remove the battery. Go into the recovery, perform a full-wipe and flash again. If that not helps then boot youre phone again in the recovery and .....then:
Format youre sdcard from the recovery into swap=0, ext=512, remainder=fat32. You will loose all there is on youre sdcard.
Then after formatting. Turn off the phone. Take out the sdcard and copy the rom to youre sdcard. Put it back in the phone. Start youre phone in the recovery and flash the rom.
Thanks for the quick reply.!
The problem is i am unable to login to my phone. So how will i be able to flash the phone? only if i log in can i use rom manager isnt it? I am a total newbie at this. I would really appreciate it if you could explain this in detail to me!
thanks!
as I know power button with volume down together then wait then use volume down
to highlight recovery then power to enter.
It is explained in the first post of thus forum.
Hold down the back key while pushing the power button.
You will get a menu
Select Bootloader (by pressing power button)
Then wait for 10 seconds on the next menu
Scrol to Recovery with the volume-down button
Then you'll wait ten seconds and get a black screen with red traingle
now connect your phone to the pc with usb
start a adb recovery on the pc (for this you must have a recovery on the pc installed as well as Android SDK) in my case I just run the file recovery-windows.bat
Then you'll get a menu on your phone wit a lot of options, you can even select Ms-usb toggle after wich you can acces your sd card.
I am not a developer but think this is quite it. Download links are all in teh first thread of this forum.
Could you tell me if this would work?
I'll first wipe the phone, including the cache.
Then I'll copy paste the zip file of the Nextsense rom onto an sd card from my PC, insert into my phone, go to recovery mode, go to the sdcard-update.zip menu, and select the nextsense zip file.
Will that work?
Please help me out. and cheers to all u guys who took the trouble to reply so quickly. thanks..
I finally got it to work. All i did was I went into the recovery console, selected factory reset. and it got alright. Only problem is that i think my sd card got busted in the process. No idea what happened to it. It is not even getting detected by my laptop. I guess i ll have to get a new one. Thanks a ton to all the xda guys for helping me out. this forum is really kickass! I shall definitely return to xda to get help on further issues!
reformat your SD card , that should fix it !
Thanks! yeah, formatting the sdcard fixed it. Finally working properly now..
HTC desire stuck in bootscreen
I have the same problem with my desire. While loading a ROM with ROM manager the phone rebooted and started to install the ROM. But while it was installing it i error message came up and the phone froze. And after that it get stuck at the bootscreen. I've read the posts written earlier about this problem, but nothing works.
When I push volume down + power on the phone should think for a second and then show green texts about the SD card etc, but when this message shows it says it can't find anything on the SD card. And when I enter fastboot -> bootloader, it just throws me back to the home menu.. any ideas what to do?
you have to use recovery option in the bootloader
Unless you pushed the NewSense ROM via ADB you're most likely going to get a bootloop. After reading statements in the flashable versions of that ROM, that's what I've gathered: Bootloops.
Either wipe everything and install another ROM or install it the 'old school' way, using ADB.
hi i'm new here,
Currently my Desire totally can't boot up..it stuck on the HTC Welcome screen..
I already remove the battery and restart it..
Also done with the Hard Reset method.
Fyi, my Desire still in stock condition (Android 2.1)
Need some advise regarding this issue.
Thanks in advance guy's =)
Hi I've the same issue as biskut here. The only deference is that have 2.2.

Similar problem
Hey.
I tried to s-off my phone using alpharev and I had the "waiting for flashing to complete". I tried to check if the proces was running with some commands and it seem as if I managed to restart the proces. I finally gave up and removed the phone. Probably too early because now I can only get bootscreen and Clockwordmod recovery. I'm unable to get further than that and therefore I'm not able to start the s-off proces again.
Can anybody help me?

just solved it today,after about 20 full wipes,and upload about 30 times diferent custom rooms at least my phone woked up at CM10_VJ_4.1.2_v3.0 ROOM
dunno why my phone stucked on boot screen but now all is ok and I will never install chainfire on this phone
I've bricked my desire, after I installed uvoc 2.6.32 for Sense Roms everything was ok. THEN I want to instal some mod that changes the battery indicator to some circle with % show inside. My desire started to loop after "quietly brilliant" In attack
of panic I've formatted system and boot. now I can onl get in recovery mode. My m8 is going to give it to my operator's for warranty sayin something like "I don't know what happened i get it off the charger and it was like this"
Or maybe any chance to repair at home ?
Sorry for my bad english.
Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so just install another rom!
If not just run an RUU and return it to stock and start again.
I don't think you need to return it to HTC until you have tried a few things.
I am pretty sure this could be fixed yourself!!

1. Do you have a custom recovery installed (Amon-Ra or Clockworkmod)? If so, it is possible to access the SD card over USB from Windows. The option will be "Mount USB Storage" or something similar. If you have a custom recovery I think you *should* just be able to flash a rom from there!
2. An RUU is a software update from HTC (found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667). Where did you get your Desire? Was it unbranded or did you get it from a network (O2, Vodafone etc)? Also what HBOOT do you have? To find this, power off your device, press (and hold) BACK and press power. It should say HBOOT at the top and have a number beside.
Also, I don't suppose you have an old Nandroid backup or anything?
Stu
same thing happenend to me once, first off all, dont panic
what the guy above me says, do that, plug it in via usb and you'll be able to mount it, then just throw a new rom on there: MIUI, LEEDROID, OPENDESIRE.
whatever you want.
install that zip via the recovery menu and lead a long and happy life

The phone was bought from a network "play" (poland) it was sim free from stock and no sighn of any branding on it.
I will be able to check the hboot version today evening.
I have an "Mount USB Storage" option in recovery. clockworld.zip is on sd too.
I will try to get to sd and install a stock rom (i tried to reinstal the kernal ive dowloaded from xda) but nothhing happens.
It doesnt even try to boot when I press the power key (without the volume down arrow) it acts like I would use the power + v. down)
before I use format boot and format system it was looped as I said before.
First, download this RUU file:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
Then, turn your phone on whilst holding the back button and you should get into FASTBOOT. Connect your phone to your PC and then run that RUU. If it works it will reset the phone back to stock

If you can get into Clockwork mod then you can put any ROM you like (Defrost, Cyanogen, MIUI etc) on the SD card and flash that and you should have a fully working device.
Or you can do what Eddy posted above and get back to complete stock (like it was when you bought it)!
stu
I will try that, currently if i choose "fastboot" when turn it on, it just blinks and get me to the same place I was a second before.
Stay tuned for more question in about 4,5h form now :]
It will look the same BUT it'll say FASTBOOT instead of HBOOT at the top...
It boot up ! Thank you all for your help and patience. It was a good lesson for me.
Now I will try to be more mature and careful user.

Today I was flashing a new Rom (the GingerSense Leak to be specific) and when I was in Rom Manager I decided to update my recover from 2.5.0.7 to 3.0.0.5 (not sure if either of these numbers are right). When I finally rebooted into what I thought was recovery my phone sent me to the bootloader menu. Which normally isn't a big deal and it means that the recovery version didn't take. This time when I selected reboot it rebooted back into the bootloader menu. Now I can't get anywhere, no recovery and no way to reboot the phone.
Am I F$%#ed?
I did do a search and no one has quite had the same problem I am having.
Thank you for the help in advance.

Try running an RUU.
Not sure how advanced of a user you are, but you can try and check if your phone is recognized via USB while in the bootloader and try pushing the recovery on via ADB. That way, you can just restore a good NAND instead of having to start over.

Does your bootloader show Ship S On or Ship S off? If it's S off still, you can probably just flash a PC36IMG of a recovery, using the bootloader. That looks like what teh roxxor attatched, based on the file size of the PC36IMG he attatched. If you're not S off anymore, I'd suggest running an RUU to flash you back to stock, and then start over from that point.

So where are you at exactly? Did you get the recovery flashed earlier, and your phone is back up and running? And now you're just trying to get ADB to work, and you're having trouble..? OR, are you still stuck, and never got the phone back online earlier?
Do you get an error when you try to use adb, or is it just not seeing the device?

Haha, I was confused on what you were trying to use adb for. Were you just trying to push the .zip to your sd card? The reason it wasn't working is because you were in the bootloader. ADB only recognizes if the phone is in recovery, or booted into the OS. That's why it wouldn't see adb for ya. And yes, now that you have the PC36IMG on your sd card, you should just be able to apply that using the bootloader, and then you should be able to get up and running again.
I think I bricked my HOX.
I have custom recovery installed and lots of battery left. I tried to install a new rom (android revolution) and it worked fine, then I noticed that I had lots of left overs on my sd card from earlier installations. So I decided to format it and cleaned /data /system and /cache. The result is that the phone is stuck at "HTC - Quietly brilliant".
Is there anyway possible for me to connect the phone to the usb and transfer the rom files again to flash them?
Or what should I do to have my phone working again.
I have read the guide and I am currently downloading a RUU file, but I prefer not to lock the bootloader > revert to stock > flash rom again.
Please advice,

When you boot into recovery do you not have an option to toggle USB storage when you plug the phone in via usb?

There is an option under Mounts and storage menu in CWM that allows me to "mount UBS storage" However it is not working and returning an error, "Unable to open ums lunfile (No such file or directory)"
I guess boot into bootloader and then push your desired .zip over...

Oh, well in that case the only reasonable thing would be to also disable the "erase sd-card" feature also, to prevent issues like this
Woaahh just saw your signature, you got a 4s over the SGS II? (I'm guessing) ohh dearrr
why did you format /system? ROFL thats ur problem right there.
Your only options are
a.) wait till recovery is released w/ USB mounting currently there is none.
b.) obtain the correct official HTC RUU (HTC vendor tool) and flash in fastboot. This WILL WORK but you need the exact correct RUU for your specific build
c) use adb push commands
And btw bricked means the phone is completely dead, you can boot but not in rom

Ok, i got this baby running again. Have to say it was real dead at one time too. No battery left and no possibility to charge. Promised myself not to play anymore with it if I bring it back to life again.
However, I read somewere that I could use the iphone charger to get some batterylife to boot it and it sure worked. Left it on and the next day the light was green on the phone. My face went from to
With full battery I downloaded the 1.29 RUU but it still didnt work. Read somewere else agian that I had to relock the phone again to be able to use the RUU. So I did and it sure worked. Brought it back to stock and here I am again with a working phone in my hand.
I couldnt stay away from ARHD so I unlocked the bootload again, flashed it and customized
Must be real real hard to brick this phone completely!
