[Q] Problems with RUU - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi sorry if this is the wrong place or has been asked a million times, but I tried installing the 'official' RUU listed below on my HTC Desire and now its buggered
It seems to run along ok until it comes to 80% or so then gives an error 110 after turning the bar red.
- the file I tried was: RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed.exe
And as it is on o2, and not modified in anyway..Now its stuck on a black htc screen with 4 exclamation triangles. Power+vol down are not doing anything and I've tried running a few of the dev tools (adb /fastboot) with no luck, any suggestions please?

Thanks hehe, I have discovered it has a bootloader/hboot corrupted partition and I can actually boot into it with the dev command:
fastboot oem boot
Unfortunately, it does mean I have to do this every time I need to use it but it seems to be sort of resolved as my provider very nicely offered me a replacement (o2 uk were very nice about it)
Thanks again for your answers, but it looks like I have got rescued. I still would have liked how to fix it manually, but I guess some things are not meant to be meddled with

[solved] Radio_V2 failure

Ok, I bought this phone from market in June means that I am not bound to any operator or carrier. I have Hboot 0.92 and radio 5.09.05.30_2
I have rooted this phone long time before, and because of rooting, I couldn't update my phone when phone checks for operating system updates periodically.
Now I tried to update my phone to latest available ROM here (Froyo (2.09.405.8) update - Windows not required). I renamed and copied the zip file in formatted card (only that .zip file in whole card) and tried to update my phone.
Everything seems to go fine but they went down the hill when RADIO_V2 starts to update. I get this error.
RADIO_V2 - Fail-PU
...
...
Partition update fail!
Update fail!
Now since the update is failure so I can't use my phone now. If I normal restart it then phone just hangs on HTC logo with 7 vibrations
Any suggestions?
Ok, now I have new problem:
Now I get either a white screen (as below) where neither of the buttons seem to work or a black screen with HTC logo in the middle with exclamation marks in the four corners of the screen.
**Screenshot is attached in the post because I can't use external URL due to account restrictions for new account.**
Going to have to bite the bullet and run an RUU...get it here:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
Boot into FASTBOOT (hold back button and press power) and once connected via USB (FASTBOOT USB on screen) run the RUU...should get you back to normal, albeit with wiped data
Thanks Eddie for your reply.
I tried this but the green update bar gets an exclaimation sign, and I see Error 110. I have downloaded this file many times in case if I have corrupt download problem.
anyone? or is my phone dead?
Edit: solved the problem..thanks everyone
Hi, can you please detail how you got the phone back to life?
Thanks!
If you've fixed the issue you need to let people know how you did it so future issues can be resolved for other users...
Hi, I have exactly the same issue and am wondering how you managed to fix it! Please let us know

Hi,
I have the same issue , how did you fix it ??
Anyone??? please help ...
i hate it when people just make the questions just to do their job.
as long as you made it work you should post the steps to help others in similar conditions as you were.
think about it cause this is a community. we don't expect from HTC or others to help us but WE do expect from eachother!!!
sorry for my late reply. I wasn't visiting this forum and Internet much due to some problems in life.
Ok, here is what I did:
1. You MUST, MUST and MUST use x86 operating system. If you are using 64-bit then you are screwed.
2. Install HTC Sync but close the sync program from taskbar before you start to use RUU. HTC Sync has drivers which you need so you have no other choice but to install it.
Hopefully it helps
1. Not true, I've got Windows 7 x64 and can run RUUs without issues
I have Windows 2008 RC2 x64 and I had problems with it. The phone wouldn't update. The update progress bar was stopping at 70% or something
Might be an issue with the Server version...
Thanks! I'll try that...
I recently had a problem with a very new Desire on Orange UK - PVT4 - S-ON, hboot 0.93. I didnt have an orange sim and wanted to use my O2 sim. The sim worked when unlocked (my wife paid for an unlock code), but the wifi and data simply wouldnt work (seems to be a common problem)
Basically, I tried to write a new rom but kept digging myself deeper and deeper into a big black hole of bricked phone...
Eventually, after unsuccessfully trying to root, unlock, use a goldcard, use unrevoked 3 and downgrade to android 2.1 I ended up with a black screen with exclamation marks in each corner. I could only use RUU exe files to flash, so I started flashing random ROMS.
Each time it would fail with the green status bar flashing red, the phone vibrating and when it finally failed, I'd unplug the USB and see the screen saying it'd failed at step 2.
I looked for the most recent ROM I could find, and came across this one:
www dot mediafire dot com/?bbb7m2b4t5jejhm (i cant post external links)
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
It worked! I now have a totally unbranded froyo, with newer radio and still have S-ON (which seems to be impossible!) and all my data (wifi + cellular) works fine
I really dont know what I did to get to this point, but everything I did failed. I'm hoping that this post might help someone with a newer Orange UK branded Desire, but since I'm writing it all down a couple of days after I fixed it, i'm not sure how helpful it will be!
At least the wife's happy now she has her new phone working (and i can go back to my simple world of HD2 + wp7 + nandroid)
i did same but no luck
check
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1000385&page=10
please help me.
P.S : Sorry, i know this is old thread.

i've same problem withHTC from Orange UK also but didn't work for me

[Q] HTC Desire Not Booting after update

Hi There, I'm new to the forum so please go easy on me....
Going to try and make this quick with all the info people may need.
Basically updated my phone through HTC RUU through shipped roms (Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe)
The process got to about 65% and then failed with a error 110 FILE OPEN ERROR. The process then quits out and the phone reboots with a silver HTC Logo (black background) and for exclamation points in each corner of the screen.
The phone no longer boots and I can't seem to get into any recovery mode. I was wondering if anyone out there could help?
I have tried downloading it a number of times but it doesn't seem to work...

HTC DESIRE unroot with RUU 2.3.3 failed

Hi guys.
I know there are several posts already opened about this, but I`ve tried all I read there and nothing worked.
I wanted to send my rooted Desire back for repairs(camera LED broken thanks to a Torch app), and wanted to unroot it before I do.
I`ve read on some posts that u can unroot the phone by running the official Gingerbread 2.3.3 RUU found on htcdev.com (the official RUU), so I downloaded the RUU, installed hTC Sync, installed the Desire`s USB drivers(the same one`s that are required when rooting with Revolutionary).
The RUU started installing, the phone rebooted into the HTC splash screen and the "update" of the RUU started going, both PC and phone showed the cursor of the installing process, and at about 90% the PC gave me an error (update error).
I`ve tried again and again to run the RUU but everytime, it failed. And now, my Desire just won`t boot. I`ve taken the battery out, put it back, turned it on, and the only thing that appers on the screen is the white HTC logo on a black background, with 4 icons in each corner of the screen(looks just like the icon that appears when u plug in the usb cable with USB debugging mode ON).
Volume-down+Power and BACK+Power don`t work anymore, even though I press them, the phone just simply ignores the keys and takes me back to the before mentioned hTC splash screen.
I know this is probably something I did wrong, but if there`s any one kind enough to help me out with this, I`d deeply appreciate it.
Thank you!

plug the phone in then turn it on, tell us what it says

It doesn`t say anything.
This is what I do:
1. Take the battery out.
2. Put the battery back in place
3. Try turning phone on using: Volume-down+Power -> the phone doesn`t show anything, it simply takes me to the HTC logo(white HTC logo on black background. It does the same thing if I turn it on using BACK+Power)
If I try running the RUU again, the installer gives me the next message: Error[152]: image update error.
From what I`ve read, this is a radio error which can only be fixed by hTC. Could that be true?
Also, after the RUU gives me the above error, if I unplug the USB cable, the phone shows following:
*************
RUU
Radio_V2 - OK
Splash1 - OK
Recovery - OK
Splash2 - OK
Radio_cust - OK
Bootloader - Bypassed
Userdata - OK
System - Fail-PU
Boot - OK
Partition update fail!
Update fail!
*************
I have the Alpharev CM7 r2 bootloader.
even if it is its covered by htc warranty so don't worry about it
I don`t think it coveres it, as the Alpharev CM7 R2 bootloader still shows.

oh you're still S-OFF?
You're automatically in fastboot when you turn on since your phone is like that so just turn it on, plug it in first flash this and then flash this, Then run the RUU again.
Yes, I`m still S-OFF.
How do I flash them if I can`t access recovery using Volume-down+Power or BACK+Power?
I`ve downloaded the first one, renamed it into PB99IMG.zip, put it on root of SD CARD, turned phone ON and it takes me to the same htc logo screen as before.
LE
Tried with Android Flasher, but it gets stuck when trying to flash the bravo_alphaspl.img that u`ve given me.
So basically, I can`t enter Clockworkmod, I can`t enter the bootloader menu by turning on phone usine Volume-down+Power / Back+Power, and the phone is stuck in the HTC logo, while still S-OFF-ed, also the 2.3.3 official RUU gives me the error at the end of the installing process.
Does anyone have any idea what I could do?
Bortak, one million thanks for the help, patience and the time you`ve wasted.
I managed to pull it off in the end.
My desire lives again
And hey, if ever in Romania, let met know, got a couple of beer cases with your name on them
Thanks again, dude!
Peace.

I have the exact same problem as i_cs_u.
I tried to use an RUU to install 2.3, I have alpharev cm7r2 installed and I get stack on the same step as i_cs_u. I successfully flashed bravo_alphaspl.img with "fastboot boot bravo_alphaspl.img", but which partition do I flash bravo_downgrade.img to?
Flash bravo_downgrade.img and then the RUU.

Did you read the whole thread????

He probably figured out that he has to use the fastboot flash boot *name of img* command or Android Flasher on that screen with the 4 ! At the corner instead of renaming to PB99IMG and attempting to flash it on the phone.

Yeh tried that tutorial before and always got stuck on this part: C:\​Users\​[YourLoginNameHere]\​AppData\​Local\​Temp​\​{82B23FCD-D5D0-45CA-A3A2-5350D3926551}
Anyway finally got round it by using CCleaner and finding the right app an now installing the SDK. Dunno why i didnt think of clearing out the temp folder before doh! Will report back if i have another issue. =)
Nope stuck, this was the issue i was having before. I thought i just fixed it but nope not getting any further.
I am upto fastboot oem get_identifier_token, the issue i had was i would plug in the usb cable get 3 short fast beeps from the computer (not recognized) which i have since fixed so it makes the correct beep. But soon as i do the following:
cmd
cd \
cd android
fastboot oem get_identivier_token
I get "waiting for device".
I will have another shot tomorrow been a good hour now iphone was alot easier to do lol
Guess im staying unrooted then im stuck =(
waiting for device means it's not connecting in fastboot mode.
you need to boot the phone by holding vol- and power, then after it's finished reading the sd card, press power again to select fastboot mode (the writing at the top should say "fatboot usb" in re writing.
is your phone bl-unlocked or s-off? because i think you need one of those first before you can try flashing custom recovery?
::EDIT::
if you're having problems with HTCdev site etc....I think there was a tool floating around somewhere that could unlock bootloader without HTCdev site....
::EDIT2::

try this tool for BL-unlock without htcdev.

[Solved] Phone stuck at HTC logo

I have a htc desire.. was using ICS rom on it.. decided to go back to stock rom.. downloaded stock RUU for India from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
now stuck at black screen with HTC logo in middle and /!\ on all four corners... followed the following steps
I
nstalled HTC sync on PC (windows vista .. tried with windows XP too)
Tried to flash RUU by double clicking on it..
After some time the phone vibrated a few times when the flashing was going on and then there was an error 110 - Bad RUU or something
Downloaded the RUU again in case the earlier one got corrupted... same error..
searched on xda a lot, tried android flasher to flash stock bravo bootloader.. it was stuck at flashing.. used command prompt to flash bootloader in fast boot.. it showed success but a time period of just 0.217 sec
Tried RUU again, didn't work, same error
tried bravo_downgrade hboot and then RUU, same error
tried bravo_downgrade hboot along with stock bravo hboot and then RUU, same error
thought of going back to custom rom so that atleast I can use the device but no recovery is present.. tried flashing recovery using command prompt .. it showed success but doesn't load. all button combos take to the screen mentioned above.
Tried going through other threads.. same thing is mentioned.. its a factory unlocked phone, unbranded and all..
Any help?
Was able to flash recovery in fastboot and reboot in recovery.. flashed custom rom .. success.. but when rebooted it gets stuck at the same htc logo with /!\ at the corners
It seems that downgrading the hboot is not at all possible... tried flashing the official GB RUU downloaded from HTC developers site.. the phone came alive !!
Hey there, I also have the same problem with a htc desire. I got the phone from a guy, so i don't know how exactly he got into this state. He said that he tried to update something on the telephone when the power went of. And since then the phone is stuck with this Htc logo and the "!" in all 4 corners. I am very new into smartphones so i don' really know what u did when u said that you flashed the official GB RUU. Could you guide me trough this process so i can try it, and see if it works for me too please ? Thank you !

Search HTC dev on google and you'll be able to get to their website.. there explore and download the ginger bread RUU which is the stock ROM package
Connect to PC and execute the exe RUU file.. it'll flash your phone
