I have bricked my phone due to problems with adb.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8269629#post8269629
For description of the problem. 3rd post.. Please help me since i need to have a working phone before weekend when i'm moving abroad..
Best regards

your device isnt bricked, people use that term far too indiscriminately!! you just have no rom installed! you cant flash a rom using the standard htc recovery. you have two choices, either put your device in fastboot and flash an ruu or put your device in recovery with the red triangle, and push a custom recovery ........

Hmm okej, well i need to look an RUU file then to see if that works.. I've tried to push files with adb, but since the adb goes haywire when commanding it to push files to the phone and kills itself it seems like I won't be lucky on that front.
I'll try the fastboot method, but if that doesn't work what to do next?
My fault, i have a nonworking desire at the moment and need help to get it working
try this, put your device into recovery and connect your device to your pc, download and unzip the archive below, use a command prompt to navigate to the folder you just unrared, then use the command recovery-windows.bat. that should push a temp recovery to your device, you can now flash a rom

it didn't work. My ADB is not working properly i'm afraid.. It says ADB server didn't ACK and something about runningerror So i can't push the temp recovery to the phone .

use taskmanager to kill all instances of adb.exe or reboot your pc and try again ..... do you have htc sync installed?

i dont know what else to suggest apart from if you have access to another pc, try on that one with the pushfiles.zip i gave you....also if you have a hboot below 0.85, try flashing an ruu from fastboot like i said before

I will do that in just a few minutes . Or else i thought about installing ubuntu on a separate partition and do the adb through there, might help, might not. Thank you for the help..
Fastboot update didn't work, it told me it couldn't update my phone. Don't know if that depends on that i ran image 1.21 and tried to install a 1.15 RUU?
It seems to work now with fastboot and the latest RUU WWE 1.21.405.2
It's flashing at the moment i'm writing this, so thank you and now the thread can be closed.. Looks like i need to root my phone again to get the fully potential out of it.
Thank you for the tips about fastboot and RUU

root and then go to http://unrevoked.com/recovery/ download the reflash tool and flash a custom recovery, then you wont get in this pickle again, cuz you can always flash a rom from recovery i hope your move goes well

hello everybody...
a friend of mine just gave me his desire, he bought a used one and tried something to update its rom, but now its bricked and its in my hand to be fixed.
the problem is that it doesnt boot at all... i mean when i press power button to make it on, the htc logo appears and starts again and again with a little VIBRATE. so i can say that its in a boot loop.
ok when i press vol down and power button it goes into the boot loader, where it is written that its S-ON with boot loader .93, and when i click on recovery it goes into the boot loop like i wrote above.
i also have a Desire HTC and it is rooted using unrevoked and i m running an HD rom over it. its a complete packaged phone...
i have a knowlege how to root and etc. but in this bricked desire case i dont know what to do. coz it never happened to me... i also searched the forum for a solution, didnt got any.
please help me in this matter... ask me question and please give me a solution,/

i think it is working, but it says while installing that from image 2.33..... to imrage 2.29.... and then it tries to push everyting i mean tryies to run its setup and within 2 min it says Customer ID error, try someother package...
edit 1: i itried your way also by copying that zip file and then pasting it on the sd card... i sucessfully loaded in fastboot but i think the same error as above,,, CID error...
now what can i do?
edit 2: Have also tried unrevoked in fastboot mode... power on fastboot usb and then starting unrevoked, but unrevoked keep saying to connect device and enable usb debugging mode. nothing happens
thanks Hassan
1. Download this:
http://www.multiupload.com/LEJCW182AH
2. Follow this guide to get the ZIP out of the RUU and flash off the SD card:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10509780&postcount=102
Assuming the phone is unbranded it'll work, or at least get the phone booting again. If it fails flashing the ROM for any reason then it's a branded phone and you'll need to speak to the seller to find out where it's from

but going into vol down and menu and then pressing recovery also enables the boot loop with htc white screen and vibrate on everyboot
I think that easier way not loosing the root would be flash once again recovery were you using clockwork recovery? Beside if the phone is branded you will need a goldcard
so i think you should instal adb http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
then you need to recovery image which you can find here http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...a-recovery-ra-desire-v2-0-1-27-11-2010-a.html
put recovery on c drive sdk folder and open cmd on your windows and put a command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
U can try to put ur phone on bootloader, then plug it to ur pc and run the RUU from windows..It should restore all, after that u can root it with unrevoked and do what u want..

U cant flash the recovery on S-ON desire..maybe worth a try to run unrevoked again and see if its work, but i dont believe
i have written clearly that the phone is not going in recovery nor it is booting in to some sort of rom or recovery that i flash new recovery.but if you tell me or direct me to some tutotial to flash recovery in adb mode, may be i can unbrick my device. but c i cant boot into recovery. i can just boot into fastboot.
you dont need recovery to flash recovery fastboot is the only thing you need

if ur desire is S-ON there is NO way to flash a recovery...just unrevoked can flash the recovery if u are S-ON, but if ur phone doesn't boot, unrevoked will not work i think

With ur guide he can run the ruu without stay connected to the pc..but he can flash it directly from the pc (if phone usb work), as is more easy (at least in my opinion)..the phone in fastboot mode is not a problem, as the ruu handle that case
If anyone would help me urgently I would really appreciate it
This is what happened, I was trying to installed the 3 dot mod from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582506
I initially got these errors when trying to install it
I tried to use adb remount as it said in the guide but it said
remount failed: operation not permitted
I also tried adb shell sysrw and it gives me the following error
/system/bin/sd: sysrw: not found
I have directed the CMD to the platform-tools directory using CD C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
The phone is switched on and USB debugging is enabled, can anybody tell me what I am missing?
P.S. I am rooted and have got SuperSU installed.
Thanks anyone who helps me!

ADB still isn't recognized but Fastboot drivers are working, mods could you please close this thread.
P.S. To anyone reading this, I would highly recommend you don't make the same mistake as me and always leave a ClockWorkRecovery Mod backup in your HTC One X (it's only around 900MB) as it's a very annoying process to get it fixed due to lack of external memory and USB mode in recovery.

Hello I have rooted, installed recovery and unlocked bootloader. But now I just need to get S-Off. Can someone help me and say what exactly I have to do?
With the retirement of AAHK, you now need quite a bit of skill to get S-Off. If you really want to try, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2184953.

That has nothing to do with S-OFF. That is because you are not flashing the CM boot.img in fastboot after flashing the rom in CWM. With an unlocked bootloader you need to do that everytime you flash a rom.
You can acquire eng S-OFF quite easily if you use a mirror to get AAHK. Simply download the PD98IMG files manually when the script needs them. Worked for me today.

Phone: DHD, 3.20.502.52, ATT
I have successfully unlocked the phone (via HTCDev)
And have successfully rooted the phone.
I installed the ROM Manager and Titanium Backup.
I have the ADB drivers successfully installed on my computer.
I also have HTC Quick Root running on my computer.
I am NOT able to get the CWM Recovery installed on the phone. I always get a " /cache/data..." error.
I've searched and read a number of threads that have indicated the DHD Gingerbread is particularly difficult to get ROM Manager fully working. I tried the process outlined here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39016279), using the easyunlock tool. the script appears to run fine, i've even gone through the redundant step of putting the unlockcode received from htcdev into the tools directory and allowing the script to complete, which it appears to do fine. However, the script indicates the phone should execute some commands as a final step, at which point my phone is already sitting in the bootloader menu and does nothing.
I'm reasonably comfortable with ADB commands and the terminal emulator on the phone.
Can anyone help me understand why I'm failing and what I might do to get the CWM Recovery installed and get ROM Manager working?

If the Easy Ace Root Tool worked fine, then you should have CWM recovery installed....Rom manager needs you to be rooted to work, but an unlocked bootloader allows you to flash a custom recovery.

This thread contains all the information you need, for drivers and twrp. Its very simple to follow.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2800727
If you haven't upgraded your firmware to the latest 2.22.x base you won't be able to flash the latest arhd rom. That thread will walk you through that as well. If your not sure what firmware your on that thread shows you how to check.
You don't NEED s-off for any of this, but it makes upgrading firmware easier. If you don't have s-off you need to relock your bootloader before upgrading firmware.

Skype won't help if you don't want to give enough info. Seems like you're just giving the least amount detail possible when responding.
Get adb and fastboot setup on your computer. There's a ton of tutorials about this. Just use the internet.
After you've installed those run in terminal (command prompt) "adb devices" to check to make sure it's working. Then in terminal run "adb reboot bootloader". This will boot your device into bootloader (fastboot mode).
Then that's where you type fastboot flash recovery <insert recovovery.img here>
Once that's done type in terminal "fastboot reboot" and you're device will reboot.
Done. You'll have whatever recovery you chose.

Hey pal first off, this is the wrong forum. This is the old wildfire forums not the wildfire s. But I shall help you out none the less
Since your phone is hboot unlocked but not s-off you need to flash your custom roms boot.img via fastboot just after you flash the rom via recovery. When you download the rom it comes in a zip file, unzip a copy of it and place the boot.img in your fastboot folder, then copy the zip to your sd card and then flash via recovery. Once it's flashed boot into hboot by using advanced reboot options I think its called. Then flash the boot.img using the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where boot.img is the name of the .img you took from the zip file (just in case you have renamed it and don't know why the command is not working)
Then do fastboot reboot and the phone should boot up okay. You need to flash the boot.img for every rom change that you do. Also should you decide you want to run a RUU you must relock you hboot or it won't run.

HI.
firste off i would like to thank you for taking the time to responde to my question and im sorry about posting in the wrong forum.
i watched the XDA DEV noob video on youtube about being a noob so before i posted my question i looked through each and every post i could find about my phone s problem but NO LUCK so i decided to ask the experts
*i did relock my bootloader before i ran the Ruu and it didnt work it said main version too old and since my costume rom is based on andoird 2.3.7 and my htc can only go as far as 2.3.5 and ruu wont let you downgrade so i figured it might not work.
*now you suggested that i flash the costume rom via recovery and thats the problem i cant even get in to my recovery it just gets stuck on the white htc screen and i tried flashing the recovery Again (twrp) and nothing. even other recoveries wouldnt work.
*i flashed about 4 roms and they all worked just fine even this last one and i didnt flash the boot.img and i was able to reboot normally
THANK YOU.

Okay so, let's recap.
You are on a custom android rom.
You have a custom recovery installed.
Your cannot flash the RUU as your run version is higher than the RUU.
Lastly you cannot boot into your custom Rom, or your recovery?
Do you want to return to stick it get a custom Rom flashed?

Lastly you cannot boot into your custom Rom, or your recovery?
Do you want to return to stick it get a custom Rom flashed?

at this point i just want to get pass that white htc screen i am sick of it
Q: if i flash a system via fastboot successfully will it automaticly erase the old one because i tried to erase it but it said remot controle not allowed (S-on)
ok, ive requested this thread be moved to its correct forum.
before proceeding can you tell me when your htc wildfire marvel was made? after 2012?
can you flash clockworkmod recovery and then try flashing a custom htc sense rom
Then reboot back into cwm recovery (by selecting advanced/ reboot-recovery in the menus) and plug the phone into your computer via usb cable. open up your command prompt and move to your adb folder. type the following commands ( a # denotes instructions and should not be typed into the command window)
Code:
adb devices
#this should show your device up, maybe saying its in recovery mode
adb shell
# the command prompt should change to a # symbol
Now make sure you have a sdcard in the phone and then run the following command
Code:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
This should leave you with a file called misc.img on your sdcard. Lastly
Code:
exit
exit
exit
your command window should have closed. now upload this file to a online storage system like dropbox and send me a pm with a link to it. I will edit it and you can flash it back, this will relock your hboot and downgrade your software version so that RUU's will work. then we will run a RUU, returning your phone to stock and functional state

Hmm.... Okay reflash twrp and see if it boots up. Without a recovery your options are limited. You need to be careful as your device uses a different kernel from older versions of the wildfire s. If you flash a older RUU version it will kill your phone.
Do you have any phone unlock shops near you?

Make sure when you go to the unlock shop you make sure they use an XTC clip http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/xtc_clip.htm
If they don't have it then do not pay for an unlock. You need s-off not SIM unlocked. Make sure to ask for it. Once your S-off you can run any RUU and fix the phone but check in here first so I can ensure that its compatible with your 2012 edition of the phone ( as I said flashing one that is too old will kill the phone!)
