[Solved]-I Think I bricked my phone RUU- Image Update Failed.

Hello,
I was above to send my phone to HTC,
for that i was going back to RUU, i have downloaded desired RUU for it.
i started the Ruu Installation but i forgot to downgrade my HBOOT(currently i was on cm7 r2).
and now i tried almost 5 times, no sucess, also im unable to goto bootloader so tht i can dongrade HBOOT.
It shows my HBOOT as 6.93.1002
Please help :-(

Can you access fastboot?

ahh thnx mate,
i used Fastboot Commander,
i have unloacked the HBOOT,
now running the RUU again

ruu root

hi peeps
i updated to gingerbread using the ruu and so i used revolutionary to s -off my device
but know when i rebooted the phone i cant get passed the htc splash screen
help

Use irc channel of revolutionary.

re-run ruu maybe?

hi have already ran the ruu 3 times .. and the ppl on the irc were no help at all
revolutionary downgrades the ruu hboot and s-offs the device but then the phone wont go pass the splash screen

Is this all you have done?
There are tons of things to try!
Go into the recovery and delete all cache, try boot
Re-run the Revolutionary tool, try boot.
Try the alpharev 1.8 flasher http://alpharev.nl/ to try to downgrade with the bravo_downgrade.img
If this hboot-flash succeeds you may be able to run any ruu again, try Froyo.
This was just a couple of thing that crossed my mind, search this and other forums.

what rom u have? did u do something in the recovery? like wiping something or flash an other rom?

ok all i did was run the htc desire RUU gingerbread which unrooted my phone . then i ran revolutionary to get s-off when revolutionary finishes i reboot the phone and it doesnt get pass splash screen
i have s-off so im guessing revolutionary worked back with the old hboo (6.93.00)

Can you get into recovery? If so, download Cyanogenmod (or another rom) and flash that

[TUT] Downgrade your Desire/Bravo HBOOT from 1.02.0001 to 0.93.0001

Hi,
This is how you downgrade a Desire/Bravo with the HBOOT 1.02.0001 already installed, - this method is appropriate for people who need to downgrade the HBOOT for unlock purposes. I struggled for ages on this and once I found the method thought i'd post it around the internet as I couldn't find this info anywhere.
-Summary of steps-
1)Turn S-Off + Update HBOOT
2)Downgrade HBOOT to 0.93.0001 (Turns S-ON)
I have personally tested this and it worked perfectly without any problems. However flashing anything to your phone is done at your own risk, & I accept no responsability for your device.
--Step 1--
Download and run the Revolutionary tool here http://revolutionary.io/ to turn S-Off - Follow the steps on their website for how to do this if you get stuck.
Once you have run the Revolutionary tool, when it asks if you want to install the Clockworkmod recovery press no.
You will now have an S-Off phone running HBOOT 6.93.1002
--Step 2--
Format a microSD card, download the following zip file and save it to your memory card.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/dyyn35zm07x2x7a/PB99IMG.zip LINK UPDATED 2 JAN 2013
You should now have a single file on your memory card named PB99IMG.zip
--Step 3--
Put the microSD card back in your phone and hold 'VOL+DOWN + ACTION' and press the power button to get to the HBOOT menu. Wait around 10 seconds (give or take) and the phone will detect the update and ask you to install it, Select yes to install then reboot your phone back into the HBOOT menu.
You will now have an S-On phone with the 0.93.0001 HBOOT
--Step4-- IF THIS STEP APPLIES TO YOU FOR UNLOCKING
Unlock with XTC-Clip as you normally would - Creating goldcard with 0.93.X001 HBOOT.
Your phone will now be unlocked.[/QUOTE]
NOTE: You can do the official updates through the phone as normal without loosing your unlock
Hope you find this info useful

what ruu (PB99IMG) is it?
what if someone has an orange branded phone, coz there is no ruu for it and they would need a goldcard.
what about people from different regions coz theres different ruu's for different regions aswell and they would need a gold card.
edit: its a hboot.img, thought it was an ruu.
did u try this yet? does it work?
normaly when u change hboots u have to format partitions. if u go to the trouble of getting s-off then why not just run the correct ruu for ur device, just to be safe.

Hi,
It souldn't matter what network the phone is on - The HBoot was taken from a WWE RUU & I tested it with a UK Vodaphone branded desire which worked. I used this method to unlock a 1.02.0001 phone which isnt supported by xtc hence the downgrade needed. You shouldn't need a goldcard for the downgrade part as running the revolutionary tool will switch s-off, after applying the downgraded hboot it will turn s-on but as you will be on the old 0.93.0001 hboot you can just create the goldcard with xtc and complete the unlock if this step applies to you - it probably does as I dont know another reason for downgrading to this HBOOT.
Running the downgrade will wipe the phone - it did atleast with mine.
The reason I couldnt run an RUU to downgrade the hboot after turning s-off is because revolutionarys tool adds some protection to prevent hboot flashing via RUU & fastboot. The only way I could find to do it was to flash it directly from the SD card.
As for the other regions you may be right and need a local hboot - I'm not able to test this as I only ever get UK phones to unlock. If it is the case the HBOOT which you want to downgrade to can always be extracted from a local RUU and added to your own update.zip (named correctly of course) - The network branded phones on the other hand should make no difference - as s is off, so a UK orange, vodafone etc will take the hboot from WWE RUU aslong as s is off. (This is why its neccessary to run revolutionary first)
Hope this info helps.

cool. just so u know to unlock the hboot 6.93.1002 u have to flash the Alpharev downgrader img, that way it can be overwritten by an ruu

Hi,
Thanks for mensioning that, I did actually run the Alpharev downgrader as part of the process but completely forgot to add that step ( I wrote the tutorial after doing it not during ) With me though after running the alpharev downgrade the hboot still wouldnt downgrade from the ruu - also tried manually flashing with fastboot but got various errors (something to do with usb something or other - maby it was just my usb's playing up again as they occasionaly do) so for me I still had to do the sd card way but if you find it works for you with the ruu then even better.
For anyone getting stuck, do this step after running revolutionary - Just download the Bravo Downgrader from here http://alpharev.nl/ and run it before continuing with the rest of the steps.

i always use PB99IMG awsell, my laptop dont like my phone haha

yeh its always the usb's that let me down - 7 workstations n all of them are failing on the usb's overuse i think

desire with broken volume keys
hi friends, I found a HTC Desire bravo at the flee market and bought it thinking it is actually a nexus-one... a nice phone with lots of nice futures in it after a charging session the phone boot up and it was alive back again. with one problem the volume keys was not working.. ı dismantled it and cleaned up as it is described in xda forums and didn't worked so i made a little check and found the thin foil attaching the volume keys to the main board was broken since there is no way to fix it without changing the main board and i had no intention to pay lots of money on it i left it like that with one problem; no way to boot in to recovery from start... after couple of days i found i didn't liked the rom on it i decided to change it, there was no problem since i could boot it to recovery using the restart menu which the ROM had since it was rooted but i made a mistake and fell in to a boot lope the only way to boot it back was the adb commands but phone couldn't start up so no debugging mode only fast boot so i tried many fast boot commands to boot in to recovery with no success after searching forums i found lots of desire bravos around with the same problem.. so i used ruu to reboot it properly the only ruu worked for me was the official 2.3.3 update ruu ''RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread).exe'' the phone booted and working now but no s off and no root and there was no way to root it without the volume up and down keys i was stuck with the useless unrooted rom so here how i rooted the phone without the volume keys first you have to download ''DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.zip'' and run it in USB debugging mode after that you have a working recovery partition to install a recovery bin using fastboot or what ever( the problem was after the update i lost the phones recovery partition and couldn't get the state s-off even i am s-off there was no recovery partition... since i am not good at commands to re format the boot loader this could be a life saver so i decided to share my experience... afterwards you can boot into recovery since you have a recovery partition you can push any recovery to your phone i think zergrush tool is not intended to use with bravo that why no body mentioned it in the bravo forums ops i forgot the say i used alphadevs methods and software to gain s-off on my phone before using zergrush i hope this will hwlp people like me stucked with non fonctioning volume keys

Help requested for bootloop with no recovery, hboot/fastboot only...

I have a Dinc that bootloops at the splash screen. I can get into Hboot/Fastboot but cannot get into Recovery (bootloops again). I was able to flash the latest(?) 4.08.605.15 PB31IMG but no change. The device is S-on with the 1.07 hboot. There are several possible ways to recover the device but only if I can flash the .77 ENG Hboot (or get S-off somehow). I have the Hboot img but it will not flash. If i try to flash in hboot it just reads the file then skips it. If I try to flash through fastboot it gives me a signature verify error. I have tried flashing it with the HTCdev unlock and with it relocked but no dice. I believe my only hope is to try and repartition the device or flash a nv image that I have for the Dinc but I am gonna need an ENG bootloader/S-Off for that.
Anyone know any tricks I may have missed or know of a way to get S-off with only hboot/fastboot?
Thanks for any assistance as I have been working on this on and off for a week now, I appreciate any help

[Q] Htc desire structs at bootscreen....need Ruu to make it bootable

Hello all,
I'm new to android and this forum.
My HTC Desire seems to be stuck in a
bootloop. Every recovery method i have found seems
to require that I enable USB debugging in order to do
the recovery.Since my phone cannot be bootable.i can not turn debug on via phone setting.
Is there a way that I can enable USB debugging
without booting into the phone.
If not, can you please outline a procedure that i can
follow to do a recovery from this state.
or kindly suggests me a suitable stock RUU that can make my phone bootable.
My desire bootloader details.....
"BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.001
MICROP-051d

I recommend you find and flash the 2.3.3. GB RUU
Use bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A for guidance on how to flash the RUU.

hii. as u mentioned to try 2.3 Gb RUU......i flashed it with 2.3GB RUU update.everything went ok till 90% then RUU says that Update fail. Now my htc desire stucts at black HTC logo screen with four exclamation marks on its corner. Even i cannot go to bootloader by holding vol down + power key..
..please help me to sorts out this problem.
BootLoader screenshot is attached below....

Unfortunately the Radio_V2 fail is the worst kind of fail you can find.
Means you have a radio brick, hardware problem
You can keep trying to flash the RUU until it works, or try putting the phone in a bag in a freezer for a few minutes (yes seriously) and try running the RUU again.
Even if you make the phone bootable, it's likely to fail in the long run.
