Hi everyone. I would really appreciate some help with my HTC Desire.
I recently rooted my phone using unrevoked3 and flashed Leedroid's froyo rom v2.3d using rom manager. Everything worked fine for about a week until the phone hung up and would not respond to any button, even when I tried turning it off. I took out the battery and now it won't boot up at all, not even to the HTC screen and does not vibrate when I press the power button either.
I can't boot into recovery mode either so I can't reset/flash to a previous image.
The amber light turns on when I connect the charger, however. And when I press the power button when connected, the amber light goes off. Other than that, there is no response.
Please help! Thanks in advance.
PS - I am using the unbranded (WWE) version from UK. Using with T-mobile in US.
usually when this happens you get no charge light, no charge light is an indication of complete brick/hardware/hboot problem
yours is different, im wondering if your battery circuit is fried
has this ever been in contact with fluids?
no, no water contact. thanks for replying

Hi guys, first sorry for my bad english, I'm italian
So... i've an 11 days old HTC desire, i'ven't flashed it with unoffial roms, never done strange things with it but now, it doesn't want to works.
The only operations i made with my htc are:
1 official firmware update (yesterday),
2 apps download from market...
the phone was on before i found it off without any reason...
Never dropped, never beaten, i don't know why it doesn't works
Please can you help me?
now i've leaved battery from phone,
could be the protection for overheating on?
Take out the battery and plug the mains charger in, see if the LED shows.
Yes led shows without battery, orange and green...
So the phone works, what exactly is the problem?
i can't turn on the phone, if i try to press power on button it doesn't works...the screen doesn't turn on... if i put battery in and i try to charge the phone no leds are shown... leds appairs only with removed battery...
Try turning on the phone while the battery is out but it's plugged in at the mains. The phone seems fine as it has already shown that the LED's turn on.
Try wiping the plates on the side of the battery with a fabric of some sort and see if that helps.
i've yet tried the first options, doesn't works...
i'll try the second now...
cannot be an overheating protection problem?
Ok guys, my htc has started, but now it stays stucked on HTC green boot logo...
Edit: HTC doesn't start again, ill try to leave battery for a while again than restart...
If its stuck on the green HTC logo then your phone is stuck in a boot loop. Are you sure you haven't done anything with your phone?

only the official update and installed some apps.... i've read that an hard reset maybe help me... hoe to perform it? I've to wait about 2 hours to restart the phone...
Please anyone can help me to make an hard reset on desire?
Try turning on the Desire with the volume down button pressed and then press the power at the same time. Should load the bootloader menu, give it a second or two and scroll down to clear storage by pressing volume down, then to select it, press the power button.

I need to hold power button? or press and release it?
With the 'volume down' button held, press and release the power button.

Hi there
I updated my phone to jellybean yesterday i am with tmobile uk , the phone worked fine after this everything seemed to install ok.
until a hour ago, i got a phone call answered it, then hung up, i put my phone in my pocket, next time i took it out the phone was locked on the boot page the white screen with htc logo on, i tried to power it off and the the 3 buttons on the bottom of phone started to flash white for 10 seconds then phone swithed off. the phone wont turn back on, it wont charge, tried usb to computer no lights nothing. the phone was fully charged when it switched off. my phones a standard one never touched bootloader etc
i spoke to htc they think its software problem, they say when i downloaded jellybean i used 3g not wifi (my fault) this could have caused the problem as there could of been a drop in signal they tell me.
the problem i have they want 210 pound to fix and they say its not under warranty as i have had the screen replaced, but not by htc voiding the warranty.
Can anyone here give me some advice or help to fix my phone please.
thanks

Can you enter the bootloader by holding the power button and the volume - button together, keep them pressed until it enters the bootloader.

Hi,
My HTC Desire Wont boot up any more. It's not the typical suck on HTC screen or anything. It neither does it responds to the on/off button by booting up or vibrating nor does the screen go on.
The orange charging LED lights up If stuck on a charger and even turns green after a couple of hours indicating it's fully charged. The LED turns off after pressing the on/off button but it still plays dead. The charging LED wont turn on if you try it plug in the charger again only after you pull the battery out.
I don't know what to do anymore. Can you please help me?
It's S-Off with a custom ROM on it and custom recovery.

Hey guys,
a while ago, the HTC One V of a friend of mine just shut down and now it doesn't start anymore I tried to reset it by pressing the power button and the vol down button for about 10 seconds, but it just does nothing. If i connect it to the charger, the led is blinking orange, also if I connect it to the PC it's blinking, but the PC doesn't recognize it and the screen stays black. I also tried to restart it while holding it under a bright light, but that also doesn't work.
It wasn't rooted and the bootloader was locked and stuff, he just used it normally.
I hope you can help me, the things I found in the forums didnt work

No
try leave it charging for a day and then try to turn it on
I'm in a similar situation. got the phone from a friend, who has not used it in almost a year. i charged it for a long-long time, but it still doesnt turn on. tried hard reset, still nothing. when i connect it to the pc it installed the correct drivers, etc. but i tried to connect it via the all in one toolkit and it did not recognize the phone. utorrent recognized it as a usb disk. really strange. is there any chance of recovering it or send it to htc? (which would not be a cheap solution without the warranty)

Orange light blinking and phone won't turn on?
Hi guys give this a try next time you're phone has a orange blinking light. Especially for those phones that have a non removable Battery in there phones like htc 820 or an iPhone. Ok so unplug your phone press the power button 10 times at 1 second intervals to discharge it, then hold the power button for 16-30 seconds until it turns on. Then plug it up to the charger to properly charge even if it says it's charged. Hope that helps you guys out.

WOW... my phone is alive!! All i did now was:
I tried charger from my galaxy core (same amperage like htc 820 = 1A) but i used original cable from my htc charger. The led was still blinking so i decided to "knock" the back panel (around the place where connector from batterry is), then i pressed vol and vol- and power button for around 20-30s, then i pressed vol- and power button for around 30s then i released everything, then i pressed power button for 10sec and my phone turned on!!! im so happy! my phone is still on warranty but i live abroad now so i need to send it to my country to start warranty procedure but no im free of this!
Thank You guys for pushing me to try once more the magical tricks with cables, chargers and buttons
Btw.
My batterry is now 100% = that means it was charging all the time?
i don't know what was that but i am happy that it work now.
Hii...I'm facing exactly same problem...Did you fix it?
My phone goes to bootloop everytime I start it. HBOOT and Fastboot are working fine although!
