[Q] HTC Desire hang - Desire General

I tried to update it OTA and now my phone is hanging on HTC logo .
When I enter boot I get :
HBOOT-0.93.0001
RADIO-5.11.05.27
How can I revive it ?
Thanks !

Thanks to the great description i would say boot in to bootloader to see if you can do a factory reset, if you can't or it doesn't change anything run a RUU. You will lose all the data on the phone when doing so, sd is not affected as is all the stuff that is synced with google.

I tried factory reset . It doesn't change anything .
How can I run a RUU ? How to put it in RUU ?
PS : I don't care about tha data .

Ok i searched for 13 hours straight and finally found the solution...
You will have to make a gold card for it. Search on internet and you will get the procedure.
Then download the same RUU that you had in your mobile... like i had 2.29.405.5 and i could only restore on the same version.
Thats the only way in the world to solve it...
But it will happen again, because its basically edge that causes the problem. So you will either have to sale it or stop using 3G or edge :s

You dont need a gold card when you flash the original ruu, i.e. the Rom, that was installed out of the box. (branded/unbranded).
Try to boot your phone without sd-card. Did you flash a new rom? A A2SD rom without creating an ext-partition beforehand?

I don't know what version was before ...
Thank you for your patience !

Before you did the ota, did you flash a custom rom?
If yes, did you need a goldcard for that? If no, your phone is unbranded and you need to flash a wwe-ruu.

No , I didn't .
Can you link me , please , to that flash ?
Thanks !

[Q] Desire keeps crashing, Rollback to stock condition.

Hi,
I have tried several ROMs on my desire but none of them is working perfectly.
The only rom that somehow makes it possible to work is dj-droid
Leedroid and Chinese rom kept on crashing
The phone keeps crashing if I use it to much. (run a demanding app like waze or o game)
It even crashed when I use the internet for too long.
All of this made me come to a conclusion that there is something wrong with the hardware (feel free to correct me if I’m wrong)
Now I want to get my phone to his stock condition.
I know that I need to download something called a RUU file.
I found this thread, but I can’t figure which ROM should I D\L.
I suppose it should be something marked as WWE and the numbers are the radio version.
From what I can see my radio version is 32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2 (found in setting-> about phone -> Software information Baseband version) is it really the radio or I’m looking at the wrong place?
Can I use any RUU file is there a specific RUU should I D\L because in the thread I found the highs radio version is 32.30.00. If I need a specific ROM can some please point to the right direction.
Also I’ll be happy is some will explain to me what are the steps to install the RUU file, or is it same thing as installing a custom ROM ?
Please feel free to throw any other suggestions that might help to set my desire to it’s proper condition.
Thank in advance
Mark
P.S
I had froyo 2.2 and my HBOOT is 0.93.001
In order to return to stock, just connect the phone to the pc and run the RUU (it's just an exe file). The latest OFFICIAL European rom is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=828519
That will upgrade HBOOT and Radio, you really need that. In case you'll need to get root access, just download unrevoked (google it), but remember to uninstall HTC Sync in case you have it installed before running it.
After rooting, just reflash the rom of your choice and keep the new radio, just don't change it, it's superb.
Hint: before flashing any rom on top of each other, remember to wipe cache, dalvik cache, and user data, so you won't get any crash.
To restore data I suggest MyBackup Pro, gives less issues than Titanium Backup.
You need a gold card to flash anything other than the one that originally came with the phone. Radio is irrelevent

Radio is responsible of many crashes: an old radio not compatible with the camera app gives FCs.
Why would he need a goldcard if he already rooted?? To go back to stock just enter in the bootloader, select fastboot, connect via usb, start the RUU and you're done.
Thanks,
I'll try the attched RUU and update with the result.
BTW
is the there posibility i'll brik my phone during this procedure ?
Oh and i anderstand that i need a goldcard only if my phone is/was branded.
Ok, I managed to restore the phone but after the installation it entered to a boot loop.
I let the phone rest for 2 or 3 minutes and it started up perfectly.
I suspect that if I'll stress my it's get too hot and crushes.
Any suggestion how can I confirm this theory ?
How did you get it out that boot loop? Resting? Did you take out the battery or smth?
Yes,
I had to to that several time before the phone started to work.

If the OP has a branded phone and wants to flash a stock unbranded RUU you need a gold card. Radio is irrelevent in the flashing of an RUU as you get the correct radio for the ROM included in it
I am just asking because I am trying to flash the Rooted , A2SD+ version of this ROM and after flash it just keeps looping (when the little green android logo appears and the phone vibrates) and does that on and on and on. Maybe I have to wait more.
Which ROM have you come from? IF it wasn't a Sense-based ROM you'll have to do a full wipe before booting

I came from exactly this one (latest OTA). It was rooted and as clockwork recovery did not work , I flashed Amonra. I did a full wipe, I formatted the SD card and then partitioned it, I did everything from scrap. I am almost certain I am missing astep or smth. Phone shows S-ON, maybe amonra doesnt get read of Security...?? I am not very good at this stuff, but any other ROM I flash works, except for the latest OTA (rooted and with A2SD- there is a post here on the forum containing it).
OR you mean a full wipe AFTER flashing, and before the first boot??
Chapter 2 – Return of the Desire
Hi again
First of all I want to thank you all for your assistance I had no problem to activate the warranty.
It seems that the constant reboot issue was a know issue of the A8181 series so my original phone was sent to HTC.
Finely I got the phone back and according to what I've been told it's a new device.
When I tried to use the phone I noticed that the APN settings were not transformed from the SIM card to the phone
(did not had that problem before I shipped the phone).
I tried to ran the RUU I used before and It seemed like I'm also going to gain an upgrade from 2.10.405.2 to 2.29.405.2 .
With a heart full of joy I'm pressing the next button and when the status bar reaches the "updating signature" I get the " Error [131] customer ID" error.
Noting I do seems to help fixing the problem.
I managed to root the phone, I flashed the LeeDroid rom, but i still can't run the RUU.
Any suggestions how do I fix the problem ?
I don't think my phone is branded as I bought an online store and from my provider.
Thanks in advance
You need a goldcard.

Can you access your sdcard on your phone?

I think that's your problem then.

The phone keeps telling me that it's sage to remove it
I dont have this problem when i insert my ap2sd card

[Q] HTC desire T-Mobile wont boot

Hi guys,
I'm stuck with an HTC desire that doesn't want to boot.
I used to restart by itself once in a while and sometimes it would loop the loading screen a couple of times.
I managed to recover it before by using the recovery option on the bootloader but not this time...
What I've been trying to do is to install a clean ROM to see if that will make it boot, but it's proving difficult since I don't have a Gold card and the phone is Branded (T-Mobile UK) and not rooted.
Would you please advise some steps that I can try?
I read some threads in multiple forums but usually people cant even access boot menus properly, I can access both Bootloader and fastboot it's just that I'm not having any success in re-flashing / solving the problem.
PS: current ROM seems to be 2.12.110.2
Thanks in advance!
Update
I have found this thread which is a very similar problem to mine.
The differences are:
- I can actually run HBOOT;
- The phone is not rooted;
But i think the most important is:
- I can't seem to find the PB99IMG image of my current ROM so I could try and load via Gold card as suggested on the thread: "...flash the right (matching hboot, provider and version) RUU, by using the PB99IMG method..."
Any ideas how I can try to fix this? Thanks.
this is the TMO that you reported. http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...00.32U_5.10.05.17_2_release_143754_signed.exe
good luck
Hi mariosraptor, txs for the reply.
From the other thread I think I need the PB99IMG.zip file. Is there any way to convert one to another?
I've tried the RUU before but it fails since I'm not really upgrading to a newer version...
i will upload the file for you in a few minutes.

Thanks a lot mariosraptor!
I will try this today by uploading it to the SD card, hope it works!
Tried it just now. It does find the PB99IMG.zip file and loads it, then it says [CHECKING] but it reverts back to HBOOT screen
Any ideas why this may be? I'm not using a Gold Card, can that be a problem? I thought it was okay since this ROM is signed...
It should not be needing a goldcard as long as it is your original rom. But if you can create a goldcard it shouldn't do any harm.

How do I bring back my Desire to work?

Hi
I´m in trouble with my Desire and need professional help.
It´s a (was a?) 093.0001 with root and s-off
I´ve installed Leedroid V3.07 (Gingerbread) incl. Custom HBoot for data++ and the Radio 32.56.00.32U_5.17.05.08
I´ve tried to flash it back to original by using the orig. 2.2 Stock Rom from HTC. As far as I know should this be enough to bring it back to original.
Now there is the following problem:
The update breaks with the message, I´ve got to use an other RUU. The phone hangs with a black screen and triangles in it.
I can not start it in BL mode. It hangs with a partition failure.
Is this a fullbrick or is there a way to fix it? Does the radio make this problems? How can i create a higher radio number to overflash it?
What woulda real specialist do now?
Thanks for help...

Hi Patrick,
This happens usually with branded phones. In this thread you'll have to find the appropriate RUU, the RUU designed for your phone's original carrier. Did you make a goldcard ?
No, I did not make a goldcard.
I thought, Goldcard is not longer needed, so I dind´t make one...
But I´m a step closer (or did I make a sep back?)
I had acces via fastboot and tried to flash an other stock ROM via fastbootcommander...
Now I have the old HBOOT 0.93.0001 and my old radio. I´n not root anymore, and s-on is now printed in the display - but the flash stops with an partition failure again...
Is the partition failure the point to search for branded roms?

Do you have any idea if your phone is branded ?
No, I have no idea... bevore I start rooting i did not have seen any signs for a branding.
Mostly the desire shows an own startlogo from the carrier, isn´t it?
My problem is, the update is starting, but it aborts at ~50% with this failure...
All other updates won´t start, just this one RUU goes up to 50 percent...

You need HTC Sync. Start your phone in fastboot (back button + power), connect you phone and run RUU.
I´ve tried it a serval times, as admin, without admin rights, various combinations of rights and versions and have everytime the same problem...
I cann not see the phone starting in fastboot, even if I try to boot, the phone hangs with this black pic...
If I disconnect the cable from the phone I see the white page, but the last Entry is ruu, nothing more... there is nothing I can navigate to.

Hey [email protected] . . 1st check if your pc is recognising your phone.
Connect to pc and check in device manager what is it showing.. should be adb or bootloader interface.. if not try to install adb driver...
than once its done.
try to run this RUU
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe
basically error 131 is for CID.. so you will require a goldcard for that.. just try your luck .. remove both memory card and simcard.. and run the RUU..
Let us know the results
Allright everybody - It works! Feels like birthday @ christmas together, including a final blowjob and a cold beer togeter
What did I do? I´ve created a new goldcard on a second desire, used this card and started the final RUU again - That was all... Little think, big Impression
I thought all the time, the goldcard was specific for the telephone, but it was specially for the memory card.
Thanks a lot for all of your help! I know, there were many help for this stupid guy
But you all have saved the live of my desire... Thanks

[Q] Update bootloader from 0.75 to 0.93+

Hey!
My Phone: Desire GSM with up to date Aurora Rom and 0.75 Bootloader.
2.5.0.7 ClockworkMod Recovery. S-ON!
Newest Radio.
I got some memory issues and want to flash the HBoot with AlphaRev.
So first i need to "update" my bootloader to 0.93. I couldnt find a way to do so!
I tried to install the latest WWE and the latest HTC_European RUU once normal and via fastboot... both fail with Error 131.
I dont know how to get away from the old bootloader... i'm frustrated #
The RUU always says i'm on 1.15.x. I dont know what this means...
Another question: a the moment i'm also not able to update the ClockworkMod via RomManager or Droid Explorer. Is this because my security is still ON?
Thanks!
go to my guide, create a goldcard first (link to tutorial there too) and then flash the latest WWE RUU from the link on my guide
Also it's best to change recovery via fastboot, and to completely cut out 3rd party apps like rom manager because they just cause issues. Flash roms and backup through recovery manually and everything else from fastboot
It's a Goldcard and already tried the RUU from your guide...
Maybe my SD Card isnt able to act as goldcard... going to try another one
report in a few minutes
Didn't someone say alpharev works on .75? No need to change bootloader? Try that instead of revolutionary
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
tried alpharev...
booted from CD. Everything fine... on step 3 of 3, 5 errors or something like appeared and a command line with somethink like "te:box$" appeared and nothing more happend. After ten minutes i just restartet my phone (very risky i know ) and it was still S-ON.
i thought i have to update my bootloader... but if anyone knows this failure pls tell me a solution! because creating a new goldcard with one android phone isnt that easy if you cant restore with an unrooted RUU
*edit*
seems also to be a goldcard failure :/
none of my sd cards is able to be a goldcard... sucks!
