[Help] SLCD Bricked the phone.... - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Here was my situation, I flashed clockwork mod recovery and then got in, I formatted every partition except sd-card which I formatted in windows(1 partition 7.9GB). Now I couldn't get it to recognize, it wasn't mounting. So I took the battery out, took the SD Card out and then connected it with windows using SD Card reader, it was fine. Now I couldn't get into recovery, I was stuck at Bootloader/FastBoot. So I installed the only India_Asia RUU available and got it into a SLCD Brick(It probably downgraded the HBoot). So, I got a Desire in a brand new shape with the SLCD not working. What do I do? I don't have a gold card and I cannot get into the settings for enabling USB Debugging.

hey, have you been able to get this to work? i'm in the exact same position!

Tried a WWE Rom ?

I landed in the same situation. Did you find a solution, Dragooon123. My problem differs in that I cant get into Fastboot either, or even if I can, I cant see anything. Just found out now that the Desires in India are SLCD.

You could create a gold card and flash a generic htc ruu.

Thank you ste1164 for your replies here and in my original thread. I dont have a goldcard and cant create one now. Adb doesnt detect my device. Although fastboot does.

[Q] Installed nexus rom on desire, now its not working

Hello all.
I am stupid I know. But I installed the evil nxsense HD v.0.9 on my HTC desire, didn't know it was for nexus.
So now my phone is *Edit*, I can only enter the Hboot and recovery menu, but cant restore my backup. I can also mount to usb so I can connect it to my computer.
Is there any hope, and what can i do?????
Drmalle
Boot into fastboot and flash an oficial ruu...u will need to re-root after that.
Thanks cris you just gave me hope
How will I know which ruuu rom to use, I google it, and found ALOT.
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667[/url]
found some here, any of them?
Does anyone know where to get the official htc desire ruu rom in zip. I can only find RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed, and that can only work if your phone is alive..
I need the rom you can flash in recovery???
Drmalle
Boot into fastboot on phone. Run ruu on windows (with phone attached to USB)
OR
Download this:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.zip
Rename it PB99IMG and copy it to your sd card. Then just boot the phone into HBOOT (turn on whilst holding volume down) and follow the instructions
I ran the RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE in windows, and now the phone works.
So thank you everybody who helped.
BUT it cant find the sd card now, it says insert sd card. how do i fix that?
Drmalle
Take it out of the phone, format it in Windows (assuming you have a card reader and a micro to SD card adapter), put it back in phone and see if it works.
If not, it may be corrupt
Well i don't have that, can i just buy a new one and insert? or is there and other way.
Buying a new one is the quick way, but then again you could just buy/borrow a micro sd to sd adapter and use a PC with a card reader in it...
Ok thanks, im on my to my Friend
Who has a card reader, so hope it will work

Brick - stop at boot logo, no recovery

Hello!
I have the HTC Desire (Amoled), was taken root, has been installed firmware LeeDrOiD. Checking for updates is disabled. At one point the phone in a shirt pocket reboot, and ... Booting hangs at boot logo. When you start the recovery - the same screen boot logo.
At the same time received:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
Tried to flash all of the available WWE RUU, just tried to flash through PB99IMG.zip. Regardless of the success / failure load firmware, the result does not change - then boot logo is not loading, recovery is not available.
Read many threads about brick, boot loop - everything is solved through firmware RRU. In my case it does not help.
Has anyone encountered similar? Are there any solutions (apart from the service center)?
Related topics:

However, the decision to reflashing does not help me.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Try to flash this:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.zip
or this:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
and root again.
i have same problem
Tried the PB99IMG method in fastboot mode?
Strange how you mentiod after applying the ruu that the firmware does not change..

Yes it is possible. You would need another phone that accepts a MicroSD card or use a USB card reader (if you have one)/Laptop card reader. Upon purchasing your SD card, did you not receive a MicroSD card adaptor? simply place the MicroSD card into that, then insert into your laptop card reader. Then follow the steps for creating the Gold Card tool in my sig below.

You can do a GoldCard using Mac, Linux or Windows with a Card Reader.
But i can't turn on my phone.

As I already said, flashing through the RUU does not change anything.
I tried the same release 159811 - nothing has changed.

Ive encountered the same thing, what i did was using another Desire to create goldcard (same vendor handset) and flash the RUU just fine.

HC Desire bricked?

Hello!
Here is my story. 1 month ago I had install Leed Droid on my phone with partitions on card and everything was fine till I got some errors (like rebooting). So yesterday I had decide to go back to original ROM. Maybe I had done the steps wrong. Here is what I had done. First I had format my SD card in a SD reader to FAT32. And after that it had start my problems. The phone can not see the SD CARD and also the PC can't see the phone... so I can't install original ROM or put it on SD card to flash it from there if that is possible. I can go into bootloader and I had try to add files on SD card but can not see it it say:
can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
I had read abt this but coudn't solved the problems... so is posible to be USB bricked but I had follow the steps for that and didn't work... Any ideea?
P.S. I can boot Le3e Droid if I push recovery. But I can not install anything on card bc it can not see it
Here are the details of h-boot:
I have H-BOOT 0.93 0001
BRAVO PVT 1 SHIP S-OFF
MICROP 031D
TOUCHPANEL- SYNT0101
RADIO-5.17.05.08
Thanks!
It not necessarily bricked. It could just simply be that the format went wrong. Don't know on what OS you formatted it but windows isn't the tidiest in formating. Never experienced it on my phone but it happend to me with my digital camera. Camera wouldn't read it anymore. T
If you have access to an other sd card you could try flashing the rom from that card. I would test that first before you try something else.
Good luck
IT'S NOT BRICKED!
Had same issue before, fixed it easily just cant remember how... wait for some more experienced people.
Can't access SD card and PC doesn't see USB - can you help me?
This happened with me yesterday. To solve it, I partitioned the SD card in recovery, and everything seems to be fine so far
Well it can't see my card not even in recovery... so should I do the partition again? with EXT3 and fat 32? Personally I will like to go back to original ROM.
Yeah I couldn't see my card either, but going to advanced>partition sd card seemed to work.
where in advanced?
in recovery mode
Have you tried shut off the phone, pull of battery, put it back
Then press power + volume down
plug the phone
use RUU.exe ??
Sup dude, i hope this helps,
1st get another SD card, then format the card, full format not quick.
Then follow this guide, UNROOT By DoidZone
And see if that dont work for you.
My Desire stucks on the white htc-screen with the InsertCoin_GB_Sense2.1 A2SD+

The Desire is s-off, CWM3.0.0.5, Hboot CM7, 6,5GB fat32, 1 GB ext3 and 500MB swap.
Before installing I wiped all .
Pls. pls. pls. any ideas?

Hey dude install the newest htc sync on your computer.
Then download the newest RUU for your phone then run it like any other program while your phone is connected to your computer. That should install your phones softwre the way it was when you got it. If tjat doesn't work try to reboot in hboot and then factory reset. Hope that helps.

I belive your desire is fine, and you just need sd card formating.
It happened to me four times.
Easiest way is to remove sd card from phone and put it into reader. My advice is usb reader. But sd reader will do also.
Download HP Usb formatting utility and format card. That will last some time. Now boot Gparted and format as you wish.
Or try with computer management disk and try to delete partitions on sd then format again.
Let me know if working.
Hello again!
I had buy another SD card and still my phone can't see he SD card...is not available... also the PC still don't see my phone... so I'm blocked to use Lee Droid. Of course can't do pics because of no SD card, can't injstal some programs...etc... I still wait for a solution from you... someone who had the same problem and fix it...
The only way my PC see the phone is when i go to bootloader... and if I try to run the RUU is starting... it say
: image version :version-main Failed (status read failed(too many links)) and if I push update
Thanks! is coming another screen it say:
from image version : version main FAILED (command write failed (unknown error) and when I push next it show it start the proces....waiting for bootloader and after that in 1 minute it say: error 171... the cable is not plugged.
Thx
Have you seen this ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6696983&postcount=1
I had close to the same problem as well
Press & hold vol down and power on the phone
Select fastboot by pressing the power button
ADB commands
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot reboot
That should fix your SD card not being detected.
Ok. I had try that but when I press power botton in fastboot it show me:
PB98DIAG.Zip loading...
Image not found
And it continue with other ... not found. So any ideea?
update:
Copied PD98IMG.zip to the SDcard, reobooted into recovery mode and it doesn't work!
On the HBOOT screen, I see:
Loading PD98DIAG.zip
Not found
Loading PD98DIAG.nbh
Not found
Loading PD98IMG.zip
Not found
Loading PD98IMG.nbh
Not found

Even I am struck at the same position as the above post:

No image!
Loading...[PB99DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Except that mine is lookinh got PB99DIAG/img etc.
I have seen those comments about using the terminal emulator, but how to use it when the phone is not booted yet?
Also, adb devices does not show the device. So, not sure if the phone is correctly working.
Any next steps?
Nobody had find a solution?

Hi everyone,
Ive been trying to downgrade my DHD for a while now but it just doesn't work! Im using jkoljo's guide > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
I can make a gold card fine, but when i do this step in cmd

on my phones screen i can see it saying "safe to remove sd card" and then i cant access the disk drive option to place the PD98IMG.zip on there.
If i restart the phone i can see the sd card again.
Just now i tried getting into the bootloader with vol - and power button and it freezes if my sd card is in the phone but works absolutely fine if the sd card is not? if it helps im using a samsung 8gb sd card

Even I had lots of problem with Goldcard. Try different cards for it to work. Also if the PD98IMG.zip from jkoljo's guide gives you wrong image error, then try downloading a 1.32 RUU that almost resembles your system config.
For example I am from India and because I couldnt get my hands on a 1.32 India RUU, I downloaded the Asia RUU and it worked.!!

I read in another post that someone else had problems with the goldcard aswell and the solution to his problem was to use mmc4 instead.
Perhaps you should try that? Otherwise it sounds like you should try another memory card.
Is you're Micro SD is formated in FAT32 ?
hey guys...
if we install PD98IMG.zip rom to desire hd.. can we get ota on it . i mean is it a stock rom.

Bootloop white screen + htc logo (ext4 recovery still working) can't install from sd

Hey everyone,
I got an htc desire from a friend which get's during booting in a withe screen with the htc logo.
The device is S-OFF and running 6.93.1002 HBOOT
I can still access the ext4recovery but when i starts it says "error mounting your sdcard" nevertheless i tried to install from sd card which of course did not work.
I read something about a usb brick in connection with the sdcard error. The solution started with connecting the phone via adb which i cant get to work. I installed the fastboot driver manually but the adb shell still says device not found.
Could someone pleas give an advice how to go on or which tutorial i should read to progress.
thx

4ext recovery has a "USB unbrick" option in the "Advanced" submenu. Try it. If it still doesn't work, try another sd-card.

I tried it but it still dosen't work. I don't have an other sd card at the moment but it works fine with my card reader an my Samsung Galaxy Note.
Could the card still be the problem?
And for some reason the phone gets quite hot when it just stays in ext4 recovery or bootloader.

It gets hot, eh?
Take the battery out, put the phone in the freezer for 10 minutes, then try to boot. If this works, then your phone is overheating, which is caused by a malfunctioning motherboard.
But that still wouldn't explain the sd-card problems. What brand & class is your sd-card?

It's an 2GB Kingston Micro SD.

Get yourself a new sd card with a higher class. Should fix your issues.
