[Q] Have I bricked my phone? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was trying to run an RUU to un-root my phone (got tired of the hassle, had a lot of issue) and program said that the files were corrupt AFTER finishing the process, now I am stuck at the black screen with an HTC logo. The screen has !'s inside of triangles on all four corners.
When I try to get to recovery (power + vol down), the screen just says
Code:
SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF

RUU
I can access fastboot through a windows command prompt and runningn "fastboot devices" shows my phone's id, so the device is connecting, I just can't do anything else. Is there something I can flash to get my phone back, and if so, how exactly to I do it?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!
---
UPDATE: Found this solution that allowed me to run the RUU without any errors.
I ended up using RUU_SuperSonic_S_Sprint_WWE_3.29.651.5_Radio_2.15.00.09.01_NV_1.77_CNV_release_150224_signed.exe
I'll gladly mirror it if anyone needs a copy and can't find it.

I'm guessing you used unrevoked forever? Try installing amon_ra using the link in my sig and flashing the S=ON tool from them, after that you should be able to use the RUU tool to completely unroot your phone.
For fastboot to work you need to be using the eng bootloader, ver 0.76

Thanks!
Thanks for the help, mate. I actually ended up using this solution to get the RUU to work without an error 110, so I'm at least back to stock now.

[Q] *Cannot boot any more* Help with my rooted froyo phone.

I am stuck...
My phone won't boot. It simply opens up the initial HTC EVO 4G screen and stalls. I can't attach to it with adb. I DO get the boot menu if I do the lower volume button when I press power on.
It says:

HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
HBOOT USB
Through "FASTBOOT", I can get to a FASTBOOT menu which says,
BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
I can read my SD Card directly on my computer.. and I have tried placing a couple of ROMS stored as PC36IMG.zip, and the ROM DOES read these, but all it says is checking, and then goes back to the HBOOT menu.
HELP!
Can someone tell me what I need to get my phone in working order..
Before this happened I had a rooted .6 2.2 Froyo ROM working well.. All of a sudden, it just stopped working and acted like this.
Thanks,

Have you tried performing a recovery?
Yes, clicking on recovery in the boot menu, just brings up the HTC EVO 4G white screen.
you have the 79 hboot, think you lost root. Should be 76.

Thx for reply,so I find this:
[4]RUU PROBLEMS
"I tried using a RUU, but it failed, and now my phone is stuck on a black HTC Screen with /!\ In every corner!"
Possible Causes:
- You were S-OFF and you flashed a custom bootloader from alpharev
- You didn't check the MD5 Sums before proceeding, and the download may have been corrupted.
- You tried using the wrong RUU
Fixing your problem
Your phone is stuck in RUU mode. RUU mode is like fastboot mode, and can still receive fastboot commands, therefore it can be easily "fixed". It helps to have a goldcard for this problem, so that you can use any RUU you want.
S-OFF
[STEP1]- download "Bravo Stock" from Alpharev
[STEP2]- download Android Flasher
[STEP3]- use android flasher to flash "Bravo Stock"
[STEP4]- run the RUU again and wait for it to finish
S-ON
If you're S-ON it eliminates the possibility of you having a custom bootloader, and the only possibility now is that the RUU was corrupted or you used the wrong RUU for your device. Therefore, for this process you need a goldcard.
[STEP1]- Create the goldcard from the tutorial
[STEP1]- Use the WWE RUU
NOTE: If you are restoring for warranty purposes, unless you bought an unbranded phone, using the WWE RUU will VOID YOUR WARRANTY, and you should use the 2.3.3 RUU (link available from #resources)
Im really beginner ,I dont know how can I do it..Im S-OFF..They say I need to download bravo stock from http://alpharev.nl/ But there are 2 bravo stock:
bravo_alphaspl.img and PB99IMG_stock which should I download and how can I flash it? I cant turn on my desire and I cant turn it with power+vol.down.. what can i do now?
pull the battery out and put back in, hold volume down then hold power, tell me what happens

As I said in the title and there is same,
"I tried using a RUU, but it failed, and now my phone is stuck on a black HTC Screen with triangle In every corner!"
yes i know but in first post u said power and vol down. just thought u did it wrong. did u try hold back button and hold power? that takes u to fastboot and u can get to hboot from there. u need to get to the hboot menu for the PB99IMG to work
Sent from my HTC Desire
Its the same:-/ Always black HTC Screen with triangle In every corner..I think its totally bricked...

Ok, I understand,but I cant get to fastboot :-/ Is there any other way to get there?
lol i dont mean to sound cheeky but when u press volume down then power do u hold them down for bout 4 r 5 seconds? i only ask coz its strange that u cant get to hboot and ur s-off

I want to try this,but I dont understand :
turn it off, plug it in via usb, hold back and power
if you know where your fastboot.exe is then cd into the path in cmd.
if you don't then unzip my attachment and put it in your c:\ and type these commands
Code:
cd\
fastboot devices
if it gives back a serial then it is not bricked and you can flash a RUU
ok download the file and unzip it, click my computer and drop the file into C: then follow the other instructions

Exactly this I understand :

What commands? where should I do it??
click my computer then C: drive find the fastboot file u put there then open it, then in a empty space in the file hold shift then right click and u should see "open command window here" click that to open cmd window then type in those commands that bortak said

Yup. Okay so you're good. Did you get the phone on contract? e.g. You pay monthly to Vodafone, T-Mobile, Orange etc.? Or did you buy it from a shop and it's unbranded?

[Q] Can't gain S-OFF and ADB doesn't detect device

I'm trying to recover the Bravo to stock after getting almost bricked. I downgraded the HBOOT to 0.93.00001 using AlphaRev method and used the RUU executable (at this point it's unclear to me whether I used the right one or not)... but the downside was I lost S-OFF in the process.
So I tried using the Revolutionary method to gain S-OFF, and got stuck on the "waiting for device" screen. It turned out that the ADB doesn't find the device, even after reinstalling the drivers.
Fastboot DOES show the device (via "Fastboot devices" command), but it displays the "12 signature verify fail" when trying to flash a new HBOOT.
Right now, the phone screen is stuck at this:

RUU
It won't let me choose HBOOT/FASTBOOT (apparently it boots in Fastboot mode automatically), or enter recovery.
¿Is there any way to gain S-OFF to install the HBOOT, recovery and ROM?
ADB doesnt work in Hboot AFAIK. And not much help to u.
But thought it would save u playing with drivers.
May be USB bricked? Have a look bortak's guide, it's covered there. As you're still s-on, you can't flash a hboot from fastboot now.
Edit: I see that you're stuck in RUU mode now; if you can't boot the system now you can still use the 2.3.3 RUU (from htcdev). After that you should be able to run revolutionary.

[Q] Problem on HBOOT screen

Hey guys, I have an HTC Wildfire S, and from what I can tell it is CDMA (does not have a SIM card), and apparently it goes by other names as well....marvelc, A510c, PG762. I managed to unlock it, root it, and s-off it, thanks to all the fantastic help here on XDA.
I am ultimately trying to get it so that I can try out different ROM's and such, so I wanted to install ClockworkMod Recovery on it as well. This is where the problem lays.
In the process of "playing" with the phone, I believe I screwed it up somehow....Apparently, in order to install ClockWorkMod Recovery, one of the steps is to press Vol-Down and Power at the same time, it WILL give the screen that says:
***UNLOCKED***
MARVELC PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.10.0001
MICROP-0354
RADIO-0.94.00.1226
Apr 17 2012, 18:21:30 etc.
But underneath, where it says:
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
SIMLOCK
IMAGE CRC
When I plug-in tha usb cable to pc and it SHOULD say "HBOOT USB PLUG".... it does not.
I *should* be able to Vol-Down to RECOVERY and install ClockWorkMod Recovery that way, no? The problem is, I ***CANNOT*** Vol-Down, Vol-Up, Power, or anything...the phone takes over at this point, and the next thing I see is:

The phone flashes a few times and then "Get SW Version"...etc....
In order to use the phone again at all, I need to pull battery out and re-insert, and start normally.
I need to say, OTHER THAN THIS, the phone *does* seem to work normally....
What can I do to fix this? Is it a matter of resetting the hboot? Is this possible? Please help, I have no idea what to do....
Also, if someone can PLEASE give me a detailed step-by-step instruction on how to install ClockWorkMod Recovery, as well as CyanogenMod, I would be eternally grateful. Thank you in advance.
I have also made a video of me attempting to boot the phone and what I just described....but being as I am a noob here, they won't let me post it....msg me and I can PM you the link
PS. I should tell you guys I have tried this with fastboot on as well as off...same results.
Also, I found similar HBOOT problems in the threads, but they were not HTC-Wildfire-S, CDMA-marvelc-A510c-PG762 specific.
Time to feel silly you have left the pg76diag.nbh after you s-offed pal. The bootloader will Always look for this file and others and if it finds them and they are untampered with, and have the correct cid (s*on) then it will execute them. If you are s-off it will always execute no matter what the cid/tampered state. Delete this file and any other pj76 files from your sd card then boot to hboot. The device will look for these pj76 type files and if it finds none it will give you control of the volume buttons and activate the USB plug if it is attached

[Q] How to rescue stuck HTC Desire

with the usual HBOOT menu - FASTBOOT, RECOVERY, CLEAR STORAGE, SIMLOCK.
Trying recovery does similar to boot, i.e.shows the HTC logo for a while, followed by 7 beeps, a reboot, and repeat.
As I understand it, I should first S-OFF it. However, all the methods I have tried do not recognise the device. If I put it into fastboot mode, and type "fastboot devices" in my PC, it is recognised. I can attempt to flash a new recovery, but I get an error "remote: signature verify fail".
I have tried revolution, and the CD method - neither recognise the device.
I tried to make a gold card, but I am stuck on the first bit, because I cannot connect to the phone with adb, only fastboot.
Revolutionary only works with phone booted, u cant flash recovery unless ur s-off or unlocked bootloader but the fact that it vibrates 7 times means hardware problem. Try flashing the 2.3gb upgrade from htcdev or find it in bortaks guide (my sig) and hope it flashes but i doubt ul be able to do anything unless u get a new motherboard.
I had the same problem. i am now on oxygen zm2 rom.
