[Q] I dunno what is the situation here.. BRICKED maybe..

I have a special situation here.. I rooted my phone then S-OFF.. Then i want to return to stock so i downloaded RUU_Bravo_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.19.707.7_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126179_signed.exe to flash back... Now i think my phone is dead.. When i press the Power Button, it only vibrate and the phone wont turn on.. Anyone can help with this situation? T.T It's an Asia Desire..

You probably SLCD bricked it. Do you hear the annoying boot sound that the phone makes? If so you SLCD bricked it for sure. Did you make a goldcard?

Ya. Mine is SLCD. I didn't hear anything.. It just vibrate once.. Do i need goldcard for generic Desire?

Is it a generic unbranded desire? If so, take the battery out to completely turn it off. Put the battery back in and boot into fastboot by holding back + Power for a few seconds. It probably won't react or vibrate but you probably will be there. Connect it to your PC. Now download 1.21 WWE RUU(See the sticky in android development section) and run it on a windows PC.

You probably want to flash the newer 2.13.707.1 RUU. That's the stock Froyo ROM for hTC_Asia_WWE. Shipped-roms.com has a copy.

Can you get to the fastboot screen?
If so, you should be able to flash a stock RUU on your device?
What HBOOT does it have?

0.83 ya i can go there but doesnt do anything

If you can find a stock RUU for Telus you could boot to fastboot, connect your device to your computer and run the RUU from your computer.
In theory this should flash your device back to how it was before you rooted.

wow i cant believe no1 in desire forum is helpful. i shouldnt of sold me x10

You have just gotten all the help you need? Go get a ruu from here and install through usb with phone in fastboot.

Sorry mate. I have tried to help as much as I can but I am not familiar with the telus procedure or any branding at all actually.

Here download this RUU. http://shipped-roms.com/download.php?category=android&model=Bravo&file=RUU_Bravo_Telstra_WWE_1.15.841.14_R4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_123851.exe
Put your phone into fastboot mode and run the RUU see if that sorts you out.

im with telus though with slcd

Oh right didn't know. I don't know how to tell between. Looks like your phone could be dead :/

[URGENT] Need to unroot dead Desire without USB Cable!

Hi all, first post here!
Anyway, I have a hell of a sticky situation. My HTC Desire charger port has broken so I cant charge it, meaning it's dead and need to send it away asap because it has a week or so of warranty left. The problem is- it's rooted. I don't have a clue what it's rooted with as it's a second hand phone and I'm not zavvy on rooting at all so I'm completely stuck! Can anyone please help me?

To unroot it you need an RUU and for that you need a cable. If it doesn't turn on then fair enough. If it does turn on, boot into recovery and format the boot partition. It will then force it to just boot into the bootloader and sort of stall HTC while they fix the port. As long as you get the port fixed, I don't see much of a problem.

Well... all HTC have to do is get another battery. Pretty sure they're not out of stock lol. But seriously, send it in and see what they say. Like I said, if at least they fix the USB and don't touch the software, it'll be fine. But no doubt they will at least check the software at some point. Just give them some bull**** excuse to get it fixed.

Does the SD card still work? If so, you can use the PB99IMG method to reflash a stock RUU

Great idea. Run the RUU on your computer and get the ROM.zip out of the temp folder. Then rename it PB99IMG.zip and put it on the root of the SD card. Boot to bootloader, and let it flash.

As long as there is enough charge to run it..

No my firend it dosent turn on and i cant go to recovery nor hboot. I mistakenly flashed the Desire z hboot on it.all i can do is charge it and it...and the orange light come on..
PS: whos jtag

jtag is a way to force the os, bootloader etc onto your phone. to do this you need to have the proper adapter to go to your computer and your phone, which you would also need to know the points on your motherboard to connect the jtag adapter (these have to be temporaraly soldered in place. then you need a program to communicate between pc and phone and of course the software.
usualy only a select few places have the ability to jtag a phone, rarley is this done by the doityourselfer. you can look for some one to do this for you but the cost probably will outway the cost of selling your phone for parts and buying a new one
sorry for the bad news, good luck!

I'm going to try the JTAG person on Ebay in the USA.
I will send 2 HTC Desire Z, one that doesn't even load and one that can only start up in recovery and has probably a broken emmc chip.

OK let's figure this out. Gonna need specific information from you.
Is the phone s-on or s-off? If s-off how was this done?
What procedure was used to flash the ROM?
What state is the phone in now? Won't turn on at all, or sits on the HTC screen, or only vibrates?
And has your friend done this before?

Hmmmm. If it was s-on then HTC safeguards would have prevented a hard brick. Is it possible the hardware has been damaged?

My advice is to flash an RUU and revert back to stock.
This is only because it's hard bricked, plus it happened to me before. I thought to give it a go, and it worked.
After that I just re root my phone, and install CWM recovery, and then flash a new ROM. It's simple
Just follow my leads and it'll work.
P.S Your hardware hasn't damaged at all. Why do users say these things?
1. Download an RUU from the buzz forums
2. Install and revert back to stock with RUU
3. After the process is done, enable adb in settings [Applications]
4. re root your device, and install CWM
5. Flash any custom ROM and follow the instructions 'fully'.
I had to rush this, I hope you understand what i'm saying.
Users if you think i'm wrong then correct me as you wish.
But this all managed to work for me, when my device was hard bricked xD

Hey @Stone Cold, the confusion people are having here is between hard bricked and soft bricked. A "hard brick" can only occur in 2 situations which are
1: the bootloader is corrupted/damaged/deleted and the device cannot boot. This can Only be fixed by using a JTAG. A ruu will not work as the ruu is flashed by the hboot(bootloader) and if it won't function then its dead.
2: that hardware has been damaged so much that the device cannot physically boot.
Depending on the damage this can sometimes be fixed.
All other forms of "bricking" are "soft bricks" or software bricks. These include bootlooping, trapped at the splash screen etc. These can be fixed as the bootloader and or custom recovery still function. If either of these still function you are not hard bricked. If a ruu worked then you were soft bricked.
Now this user states that his device was s-on so bootloader corruption is massively unlikely as nand protection is still active. This coupled with the owner stating that the device will not boot and shows no signs of life a hardware failure is the most likely option.

That's no problem pal it's good to keep these terms clear, so many people have misinterpreted them in the past. That being said thank you for reminding me of the black screen hboot issue. It's been ages since I've heard of that happening. Its good to keep notes
But back on topic, OP do you or your friend have a working fastboot path? If so try to boot into hboot with volume down and power, wait 30 seconds then push power. Then on the PC issue the command
Fastboot devices
If nothing happens its toast :/
