[Q] Not rooted, won't boot, no recovery - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Although this is my first post, I am not a n00b. I've rooted and unrooted several phones. Now, I'm trying to help a friend out of a jam but his device is seriously hosed.
Here's the current state of the device:
Hardware version - 0001
S-ON
Stock ROM version 3.30.651.2
HBOOT 2.02
Here's what it's doing:
It will not boot into the ROM or into a recovery.
It WILL boot into the bootloader and fastboot.
Fastboot USB works fine. ADB Shell does NOT work.
It will attempt to load PC36IMG.zip files from the SD, but not being rooted, they don't process correctly.
Here's what I have done so far:
I have all the shipped ROM RUUs going all the way back to 1.32. All of them except the two most recent (3.30.651.3 and 3.70.651.1) fail with error code 140 - bootloader version error. The last two fail with error code 170 - USB comm error.
It appears he was trying to root the device himself and botched it. I have not seen a scenario like this one before (not rooted with no recovery and RUUs fail).
Anyone out there with more experience who can offer me some guidance?

Can you do a 'fastboot getvar all' and see what it says? Just don't post the SN

Is there a way to do that other than from within the ADB shell? ADB shell is does not connect to the device.

You'll want to hide the IMEI number too.
Everything looks normal, you should be able to run the 3.30 ruu with your phone in the same place you got that info from. You may want to turn it off and let it charge for a half hour or so first though.

Yeah thought so too. That RUU craps out with EC 170 - USB comm error. However, I know there are tons of threads on that topic so I will go review those (again). I've done lots of RUU re-loads for folks with the system config I am using for this phone too. The most critical thing seems to be having HTC Sync 2.0.33 installed, which is the case. I'll try some other versions. and report back.

Make sure your ruu version is not older by a revision or any thing like that and letting it charge for awhile with the phone off would be a very good idea. The battery is pretty low

Good news and bad news...
Good new is that that with HTC Sync 2.0.31, I was able to reload the phone successfully to 3.30.651.3. Or more specifically, the RUU update process completed successfully.
Bad news is that now the phone will not turn on. Pulling the battery and waiting a few hours has not helped.

[Q] Bricked Desire / 4 triangles / fastboot usb access only

Heres the situation. Was happily running a rooted s-offed desire using Oxygen 2.3.2.
I needed to flash on a stock O2 rom as its got to go back to HTC tomorrow because of the reboot on charge issue.
Anyone I've run into a problem.
Downloaded and ran this:
RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed.exe
Then this happened:
Right crew downloaded the O2 Froyo RUU.
Go to install and get this screen:
(ruu.jpg)
I start to worry a bit. But none the less I Wait for it to do its thing...
then I get this:
(ruu2.jpg)
Im now stuck with a warning logo and a small traiangle in each corner of the screen.
When I unplug the desire I get a white screen with the following:
Code:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.80.0000
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-4.06.00.02_2
Mar 29 2010,21:34:33
RUU
Main Version is Older!
Update Fail!
I cant get into recovery anymore
adb doesnt see the phone.
The only access I have to it is via fastboot.exe.
Any ideas? As I gotta get it back to stock - its being picked up in the morning to go back for warenty repairs!
Cheers!
*Edit*
My CID is O2__001
installing RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed fails with:
ERROR[131]:CUSTOMER ID ERROR
Totally stuck here I think...
Yes sir. I had an RUU file that did the exact same thing to my phone (bricked it). The RUU was an incomplete file and would only show the triangles in the 4 corners or boot loader with ruu as the only option. I had to look for a froto ruu of 2.2 and run it. As I'm sending this to you from that very same phone which was rooted again with unrevoked since I was back to froyo, you can see there is hope. I'm trying to remember the link to the ruu. I'm at work right now or I would attach the direct link to the working ruu for you. I'm looking into it for ya as we speak though.

Thank you kind sir, you could just possibly save my life!
Please pardon by botched spelling for I'm not the greatest of scholars. Unfortunately at this time, I'm not about to look for the correct RUU file. But I do kbow this much. Your lokking for an RUU that will downgrade the software to the oldest software that was released to the device. Now, I too must advise you, you will not turn S-on and if you rooted with revolutionary, the water-mark will still be there on your home screen. Those are other "issues" you will also have to "work the kinks out of" before warranty will replace it. Let me know if that doesn't help.

Tried a few RUU's but keep getting a "Customer ID error" on anyversion the same or > what im trying to install.
I've tried this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275632
S-ON
"I'm S-ON, I can't boot recovery, and my phone doesn't boot "
This is a bit of a worse situation, as you cannot flash system critical parts such as the recovery image and just restore a backup. This unfortunately means that you will lose all of your data when you attempt to fix the phone.
[STEP1]- Make sure that you have a goldcard. If not, create one from the tutorial.
[STEP2]- Battery pull. Hold the BACK button and the POWER button to boot into FASTBOOT mode.
[STEP3]- Download the latest WWE RUU from here
[STEP4]- Run the RUU and wait for completion WARNING: DO NOT, BY ANY CIRCUMSTANCES INTERRUPT THE PROCESS - THIS WILL MORE THAN LIKELY END UP WITH A BRICKED PHONE - NOT EVEN IF GOD HIMSELF TELLS YOU TO DO SO, OR IF THE US PRESIDENT THREATENS YOU WITH THERMO-NUCLEAR WAR
[STEP5]- Once the phone is booted, you are now returned completely to stock. You will need to re-root again, and I'd recommend S-OFF

How the hell can I create a goldcard (need to read sd serial) when I cant use adb to connect to the phone (although fastboot.exe does).

Well thats me properly ****ed.
Can find any way of reading the CID of a card. The app someone linked to doesnt work on a laptop with inbuilt on pci card reader - no in a PC with a hub.
I wonder how much these HTC bastards will want to charge me to have the motherboard replaced (rebooting under charging) and reflashing the device.
You would've thought someone would have come up with a better solution for finding a SD cards CID.
What exactly do you mean by this:

Sadly not. I work with nothing but iPhone users.
The courier has picked it up now to send back to HTC for the rebooting issue. Lets see how much they try and rape me for this...
Had a result!
Checked the HTC repair tracking site to see my phones on its way back to me today! I thought I'd give them a call to get more details.
I was told the mainboard was indeed faulty so was replaced, phone now fully functional - and all under warrenty!
Can't wait to get it back to root it again...

HTC Desire HD 3HG_UK Stock ROM

Hello,
Yesterday I attempted to root my HTC Desire HD. It did work, however, I could not run apps as root. I was then told to run the hack kit again, but that just broke my phone. Now it is stuck on a screen which reads "HTC" in the middle, with warning triangles in the corner, I am also unable to boot my phone into HBOOT, however I am able to use fastboot to flash my device.
The ROM I have tried to flash to the device does not work, and gets stuck (forever) at a certain point every time I try to flash it, which leads me to believe that it is incompatible with the device.
I am no longer interested in rooting my phone, but instead to turn it back into a phone instead of having a brick sitting on my desk. I have tried to search for 3HG_UK branded stock ROMs. However, I have not been able to find any.
Does it matter if it's branded, or not? If not, where can I find a stock ROM which is compatible with my device?

Ok, two things:
Who told u to run the Hack Kit when already S-OFF and rooted? anyway, the manual says not to do so
There´s no need to flash a RUU if u are S-OFF and have CWM recovery
If you are S-OFF (check in hboot) then check that u have CWM recovery and then u can easily flash a custom rom...if not you will need a ruu to have a working phone, but if you are S-OFF you will be able to flash an unbranded one...

I went to a support IRC and the person told me to do it again. I did read the manual, I guess I didn't see that part. My phone is still S-ON, so I need a working RUU, I guess. Thanks for the help.

If you are S-ON then you CAN run the Hack Kit...you can re run the kit from the white splash as stated in the manual, unless you have factory reseted....

adb won´t work...he needs a working phone for that....and from fastboot, fastboot recovery does not work.

constant bootloop untill i factory reset.

im having a weird problem with my incredible 2. i downgraded the software/system version/radio so i could achieve s-off and root. finally got root and s-off, but now whenever i reboot my phone it wants to bootloop at the home page when its loading everything. it will never get past that point until i factory reset (data/cache wipe). then it will finally boot up normally. but the next time i go to reboot, it bootloops at the same spot. its a never ending cycle.
ive tried several radios. stock and custom roms. nothing seems to work.
the only thing i can honestly think of is when i used the revolutionary program to get s-off. i didnt use the incredible 2 version, i used the incredible S version with the different HBOOT number (i had i think 1.02 or something, and it said 0.82). it still worked regardless. if your wondering why i used a different file, it was because i had a brain fart and thought i had a incredible S. could that be the issue?

true, but its really the only logical explanation really lol. so ive been following this thread http://rootzwiki.com/topic/1579-how-to-restore-to-stock-from-alpharevx-incredible-2-vivow-only/
okay, im back to 2.2.1. im looking EVERYWHERE for something to upgrade me to 2.3.3 so i can get s-off and root again. but i cannot find it ANYWHERE.
sigh* nvm. found the file for 2.3.3. been tinkering with this phone all day, cant help but to get a tad frustrated.
this is driving me crazy. i downgraded back to s-on and 2.2.1. when i go to use revolutionary, everything works, but its doing that same bootlooping nonsense as before. idk if its my phone or revolutionary.
*update*
figured it out. managed to get s-off and push cwm recovery, flashed superuser, installed a rom. updated superuser. everything seems fine for the moment.

Have you tried going back to your old hboot and original factory settings then doing it the right way? Also did you flash the 320 radio and wipe cache? Try that first then try the original hboot and that'll just put you back with your original phone

As your main version has not been lowered, you will need a goldcard and to flash a RUU that works for your phone.

ok, thank you so much, but one more question, as long as i cant use adb commands only fastboots, ill have to create the gold card using another phone, so the question is, it must be a htc, or can be any other android phone ?

A HTC device is recommended, if not try using another Android device. It is worth the try.

final update.... i managed to create a gold card using another android phone, sony ericsson xperia pro , the card did his job, i managed also to rewrite a new rom to the phone. but the old problems camed back, the phone still freezes , so now for sure its a hardware issue. Ill send it to a service to figure the problems out and if the reparing cost are ok, then ill do it, if not..... i belive the phone will be sold for spare parts... so sad... it was a good phone.. Big thanks for your help.... and for the moderator..i guess topic closed:crying::crying:
Desire HD hangs on startup after update
Hi all,
My DHD stock phone offered an update tonight. After installing the update it rebooted but never came past de startup screen with green HTC. At the end, I pulled out the battery and restarted, but it still gets stuck on the start screen.
Using the volume down button I did a factory reset, with no effect.
Any ideas how I get fix this? I have no idea how to make a gold card (or what it is to be completely honest)
Thanks so much!

here in a few steps what i did to fix the logo screen stuck thing... maybe it guides u in a direction.... first of all i figured it out what rom was in my phone, than with the gold card ( its a card that grants u acces to write rom to your phone if this has a protection activated on it) i simply rewrite the rom, using RUU file ( RUU = rom update utility ) but finally for me its a hardware issue

I guess I need some more detailed steps. rom version would be the latest HTC Sense?
So what exactly is a gold card, is it an sd card specially formatted? In hboot it does say S-on...
Where do I get the RUU file I need?
Thanks!

[Q] can i get some luck? Going back to stock

Hello everybody,
I tried to install jellytime on my Desire HD, so i used Easy Ace Root Tool.
I used fastboot command to flash the boot.img to the phone and since then, the only menu available is the one of the bootloader.
As far as i tried the ruu packages fail to restore things.
Is there a way (preferably a guide) to return my phone to stock ?
Loading to fastboot now shows:

I found the rom.zip from the second file, renamed it to PD98IMG.zip and inserted it to my sd, but it say CID error.
I saw that everyone says about a goldcard but i don't seem to get it. The goldcard generator i downloaded say they could not locate the CID. Can i download a CID image?
Where should i put it, if i find one?
Thanks!

Try the AAHK2 Script. Make sure you follow all the instructions before using the script.. It will automatically do things for you and just follow the on screen instructions... At the end you will have your Stock Rom perfectly running... :good:

Do not use the AAHK2 if you are trying to return to stock for warranty purposes, thou I highly doubt that you still have warranty on this device .
In order to bypass the CID error you need to use a goldcard. Otherwise, you will need the exact ruu for your device.

After trying the 4.3 beta versions, i tried again to install the original firmware.
As before, the ruu setup did not work. It should, since my cid is HTC__001, and i was trying with every WWE version available.
Anyway, during setup, i found in the temp folder the rom.zip, and within it the necessary boot.img, system.img and recovery.img.
I flashed them through cmd using fastboot.
Everything worked out, now i am back to stock, but i guess that my phone is something like Frankenstein, using the radio and libraries from the last jellytime image i installed...
It works, but i don't recommend it. I think that i finally got lucky, and didn't brick my Desire HD.
Thanks for all your help and interest.

i think you misunderstood him mate, he flashrd only specific img files from ruu not the whole thing. in this case, radio doesnt get flashed, but that shouldnt be to big of a problem.
to op: custom roms dont contain radios. so radio that is on your device is the same as before you flashed jellytime

Well, RILs are not compatible then, and many AOSP partitions can not work fine with Sense Roms. If he did that then his cell might explode....
forgot about rils and didnt know about partitions.
but expoding cells are not to be taken lightly, especially when put in trouser pocket
