Hi guys,
first time poster but long time follower.
Last night i attempted to load the stock 3 UK rom onto my desire so that i could recieve the ota update today of froyo but now my screen is completly blank. It shows nothing at boot up and nothing when on the home screen. I know it's on because i can see the keypad light up when i press the power button. I can't boot it into recovery mode because i can't see the screen. Also i don't have a gold card neither so im pretty stuck. I believe it has something to do with different version of screens but i didn't see anything labelled on the rom to say which is for what screen. My desire has the AMOLED screen. Please can someone help i've tried allsorts but i need to get it fixed or i may try to return it at three but im guessing they'll know i've rooted it. Thanks in advance.

hold the volume key down and power button and hold till phone powers up. if your phone is rooted and has a custom recovery u can boot into that and flash rom.
I bet you have a slcd screen. Look for slcd brick fixed.

I can't because i can't see if it's gone into the recovery menu or not.
I had this problem too, you can fix it tho.
Start the phone as usual, install HTC Sync first, then connect it to your phone via USB.
Download the HTC Bravo stock rom from shipped-roms, and then just run the .exe file, it will reflash the stock android OS and your screen will be fixed.

I am having the same problem guys. i tried to unroot and reflash with a stock virgin mobile ruu... would i use the bravo rom too?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821656
as long as you can get to recovery (even if you can't see it), you should be able to fix it.
i fixed my phone fine when I tried to install a wrong amoled ruu and bricked my screen.
my solution in the thread above
Repaired
You try reflash your HTC Desire this ROM RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe. Me helped it.
Hello,
I recently got a brand new DHD from T Mobile UK. Naturally, I wanted to get rid of the bloatware that came with it. To cut the long story short, I tried to install the cyanogenmod software and ended up bricking my phone. At first it would not get past the cyanogenmod start up screen (spinning smoke thing). Now it will not boot past the T Mobile logo.
I am desperate and any solution to give me back ANY funstionality of the phone would e great.
Kind Regards.

Can you get into the bootloader? Try turning it off, then holding the power button and volume down - I think the easiest method is to hold volume down, press the power button for a few seconds (still holding volume), then let the power button go and after that the volume button. Seems to get me into the bootloader reliably.
If you can get into the bootloader, you should be able to flash back to the stock rom by placing a file on the SD card - not certain of the exact method there but someone will know
I wouldn't worry too much unless you were flashing the bootloader (hboot) to get s-off - as I understand it, the only real way to brick these devices is if you corrupt the bootloader.
What exactly did you do? I agree with the previous poster that you probably did not brick your phone you just need to get into the bootloader and flash a backup, if you made one. Also what ClockworkMod Recovery are you using. I know that if you flashed with 3.xxx you will need to flash an older version of CWM something like 2.xxx
If you give us more info we could prob help more

Hello Guys....
i have a really bad situation and i think it might get worse, i got my phone few weeks ago and it was running 2.3.3 later i got the OTA update to 2.3.5
then i wanted to root and found that the best tool is AAHK i downloaded and ran it and it asked for downgrade since my version is 3.13.415 and i agreed.. at the end of the process where it should update and i should hit "power to restart" didn't come up, thought there was nothing working and the menu just was still, so i tried to restart it from the menu. so i got the htc logo and it just froze there i tried to restart over and over again, yet no luck and i noticed the s-on thing and googled alot and found that i should flash a stock rom to get it running so i went to site called shipped roms and got one and tried to install it, but the installer said the rom isn't compatible or somethin....and i remmebered getting one from another rooting guied so i tried flashing it and it worked, but it took about 15 minutes for the device to boot up and the first vibe took about 10 minutes to finish but eventually it worked and the version i got on the phone was 2.2 but without arabic language "something i want" but it was okay, now i was a bit curios about the AAHK menu so i started it and it just started working :$ :S that's something i didn't want to happen but i was scared to pull the cable and it restarted to the "black screen with htc logo" and the tool saying "INFOsignature checking"...
sooooo is there any ideas about what can and should i do, how can i make everything back to normal or anythin
please make it fast, i really can't wait any longer
------------------------update-----------------
After about 20 minutes of waiting i had no nerve left for waiting so now i took the usb cable and took the battery out and re installed it and hit power and while i'm writing the update it's viberating and it just stopped and waiting for the "quitly briliant" hope it works
it did (sorry if i nag to much and keep updating with every second)
now guys i really don't want to root or s-off or anythin... i just want to get my DHD fully up and ruunin
will the OTA update fix everything (the boot-up thing ?) and i want to get arabic language installed-how to do that
please help me
thx
hello guys...

Doing a software update on a rooted phone will only revert the ROM to stock one. Key is patience. There is NO WAY at all that AAHK would mess something up on its own. I know this for a fact since I have used it to root 8 other DHD's so far without any issues. If you are not sure how it works then read more. You probably pulled the usb out before AAHK finished proper the first time.

as i said i was applying the update and now i'm stock at the updating screen (black background htc update logo with a phone under it)
i mentioned the progress bar before but it was (i think) about moving the update to the sd card
now after about hour or so i'm still stuck at the same update state, even when i removed the battery and restarted the phone i'm still back to the same screen with nothing more..... hope u can help me with anything that can make my phone boot-up again ( no matter what's the version-in the mean time-)

Looks to me like you bricked your phone. Remove the battery for a few minutes and put it back in. Do NOT turn the phone on but instead hold down Volume down + Power and see if you can boot into Hboot. It should lead you to a white screen with skateboarding androids. Post here everything it says there.

i'll try to get in there, but if i have a bricked phone... is there anyway to fix it(just give me a -yes/no- answer) for now.... i'll rebort as soon as i get into the hboot screen(hopefully)
btw i removed my sd card an out it in a card reader, and i couldn't access it, do u think it got anythin to do with it ??
If you are unable to enter hboot then sadly there is no return and your phone is gone. Hold down power + vol down for as long as it takes until it hopefully takes you into hboot.

and i tried to enter the hboot(but my finger slipet for split second) and i'll try againg
but on the other hand... don't u think that since i'm getting to the update screen that there might be a slice of hope for me ??

Not if its constantly stuck on the update screen without any progress. Do as I said, boot into hboot holding power + vol down keys until it boots. Write what it says there. If you can't get into hboot... Game over.

As I said before, if you can't boot into hboot then sorry but I don't know of any other solution. Maybe someone else can provide better explanation, but as far as I know, if you are constantly stuck on update screen and if you can't get into hboot at all then nothing else can be done.

i found something called hard reset -i'll give it a try- do u think that it might help ? (hope it does)
this is how i found it's done.....
1) Firstly you have to turn off your device and after that hold the volume + and volume – button together.
2) Continue pressing both the buttons and after sometime hold the power button for some time.
3) Once you have pressed the three buttons you will get the message about the change in the factory settings and also to keep a backup of the data.
4) After the message is displayed leave all the buttons then press the volume + button to start with the hard reset operation.
5) After doing this the reset operation will be carried out and all the data will be permanently removed.
do u have any info about it ???

The only option of Factory Reset I know of is through hboot. And if you cant boot there then I really can't help you.
Are you sure you did it properly? Turn the phone off, remove battery for a few minutes, put it back in. Then Press POWER + VOLUME DOWN and hold for about 10-15 seconds. That should take you into hboot and from there you can see if your phone is S-OFF and do a factory reset.
I think that you are to nervous now
just pull out the battery, put it back in..
hold VOL - (minus, down) and press the power for about 3-4 sec, than release only power button.
if that don't get you to white hboot screen than nicely take the phone to your dealer and ask for waranty.. tell them that it got stuck on OTA update
Thanx Lord.

the main problem that stopping me the most is the long time that the phone takes to boot up, i mean that if i try to start the phone it will take about 10 minutes to get to the update screen where it stops there
so holding them for 15 seconds is somethin that i think will do me no good result or actually no result at all ..... do u recommend pluging the usb in/out or anythin like that..... i know that i'm asking to much from you, but please bear with me and should i move the thread to another section in this case so i can get more help.....
please stick with me a little
really thx for your help
no use of plugging/unplugging the phone...
just do what I've posted above

There is no point in connecting usb or anything else to the phone. Do as both Lord and I have said and write down what it says in the hboot once you get in. Booting into hboot is not the same as normal boot. Don't try to act smarter then people that are trying to help you.
Edit: Don't move the thread.

ok i got into recover mode, after millions power + volume down.
had to get the volume buttons out, see this youtube vid ( search for "HTC Desire HD Disassembly Video") at 2:27.
its the hardware thats not working, i cleaned, blowed the dirt away. volume down wont work.
just hope when i use other roms it wont get stuck anymore. i always use rom manager to get back to recovery.
would be nice if theres anoter way to get into recovery without using hardwarebuttons.
here some info to get the volume keys out
asthon-gangrel said:
try these:
open battery lid.
carefully rise the manufacturer sticker and you can gain acces to the volume sensors.
pull from one side carefully here is a coaxila atached to the motherboard
you can see if the volume button is broken or only get loose from the frame
or merelly dirty, blow air from your lounges or compressed air spray
these could work

as per topic, wondering if i can flash a rom if my volume button is spoilt?
my htc suddenly behaved weirdly and screen sporadically seems to keep pressing the back button (or at least it keeps backing when i am in some app) , then freeze. i have to press power button to off, wait a while and on it and it's back to normal, and after some time, reverts to freezing. not sure if it's because i force close apps too much tho. so i thought maybe i could try flashing a new rom. but my volume button isn't working so is it still possible to flash?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA
If you are s-on you would need to first fix your volume botton(s) before trying to root your device. If you don't it would just jam you up. There are several threads on ways to fix your volume buttons.
If you are already rooted and have flashed roms before (which is not stated, thus unlickly), you could flash a touch recovery. However, I am unsure if the volume buttons could be used or are used in the touch version (which I believe it is) and since they are stuck, the button, it could act up on you.
Sent from a dream.
1. Repair your volume button (jam it in there or glue it in)
2. Root using AAHK (I'll post instructions later, out at the moment)
3. Flash 4EXT Touch Recovery
4. Profit??

hmm, i could press the up volume long time ago if i press it hard enough, but it's all unresponsive now. gone as far as unscrewing the 2 screws at the batt area and unsure how to proceed with that volume knocker at the side below the batt compartment. so i stopped at that that time.
It's just that this sudden sporadic backing /screen freeze seems more of a bother so i thought perhaps i should try flashing, or should i try a factory reset?
yes i rooted before and is now at arhd 5+ but hadn't used touch recovery before- you mean ext4 app?

yup, tried prising then so the lower part seems abit jutting out; the most it can do is slide a little up and down lol. there wasn't much info on this vol thingy and i saw one vid on disassembling the htc which kinda skims through this part and made it looked so easy (but i had no freaking idea what he did after unscrewing the screws) so i sorta left it as that and used a volume app instead
so I'm rooted and able to use the 4ext? the only 4ext i found in google play was the one i needed to pay but there was a link to the site where i could grab the free one though. supposedly if i didn't fix the volume button, am i able to use this to flash?

Yeah just grab the free one and flash the 4EXT Recovery. Trust me you'll like it much better. Easier to use, more fluid and doesn't require the volume rocker for use

Do you have ADB? You don't really need the Volume button if you're already rooted and s-off to flash ROMs.
Flash a recovery like 4EXT or even CWM Touch. 4EXT is better though. You can flash 4EXT through the app in the play store and for CWM Touch you can get it here.
If you do decide to go for CWM Touch, you'll have to flash it via fastboot. Read the forums on how to do that or let me know I'll post it later if you can't find anything.
After you flash a recovery and get ADB and HTC Sync on your system. Just use the command "adb reboot recovery" to reboot the device straight to recovery without having to press the volume button.
I've been surviving without the volume down button for a long time now. And I regularly flash stuff so I can say it's not that big a deal. It is kinda living on the edge.. But ADB always helps me out.
tks i should try the ext recovery later.
phone's acting up and the top menu icon keeps interchanging between the icons and date by itself more intermittently.
for the wipe, i just check all of the options? and it'll bring me back to the recovery menu when done?

don't you have the option to reboot into recovery by long pressing power button? Beats adb fastboot recovery. My vol down rocker is broken and this for me its the best option.

Ohh,thanks
Hm nope,my power button doesn't show the boot into recovery option .
My screen was acting up so bad that
I wasn't able to do anything for a while and I thought it was a hardware issue so I went to do a factory reset instead to see if it'll be alright. But it still freezes the screen sometimes, more obvious when typing and it either jumps about /freezes. I guess it's the display issue or digitizer issue then ?
Sent from my Desire HD using xda app-developers app
Happens to me to. Maybe rom related? I just jump to lockscreen by hitting the power button and unlocking gets me out of the freezing or acting up. Try this. Open a command window on your PC. Get to adb devices and prepare an adb reboot recovery command. Don't press enter yet. Remove the battery and reinsert it. Start the phone and quickly connect your phone to PC. You'll hear the connection sound, as you hear this , start executing the command window . The phone will boot into recovery. There you could flash ice cold sandwich which hast the boot into recovery option .
Edit: You could also download this to enter recovery.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.siriusapplications.quickboot
Also suggest you flash 4ext recovery.

I could actually still move around after my factory reset. So can probably reinstall the 4ext to flash but doesn't seem to be Rom related since I had this arhd for more than half a year and this freezing suddenly occured a few days back

Do you have ADB? You don't really need the Volume button if you're already rooted and s-off to flash ROMs.
Flash a recovery like 4EXT or even CWM Touch. 4EXT is better though. You can flash 4EXT through the app in the play store and for CWM Touch you can get it here.
If you do decide to go for CWM Touch, you'll have to flash it via fastboot. Read the forums on how to do that or let me know I'll post it later if you can't find anything.
After you flash a recovery and get ADB and HTC Sync on your system. Just use the command "adb reboot recovery" to reboot the device straight to recovery without having to press the volume button.
I've been surviving without the volume down button for a long time now. And I regularly flash stuff so I can say it's not that big a deal. It is kinda living on the edge.. But ADB always helps me out.

You can do it very simply
On device:
1- Download ROM Manager (ClockWorkMod) OR 4EXT Recovery
2- Download and Flash Recovery for your device.
3- from the application select reboot on recovery
if you already have recovery, simply download ROM Toolbox Lite and browse down to Rerbooter, then root into recovery.
On PC, with USB Development active
1- if you already have download Android SDK
RUN -> cmd -> adb reboot recovery

or Install Android Commander then Device -> Reboot -> Reboot in Recovery
