[Q] Semi-bricked Desire.

Greetings all.
I just recently semi-bricked my Desire, I was uing 'Oxygen 2 RC2' and tried to partition my sdcard through 'AmonRA Recovery' and something went wrong and I ended up with a semi-bricked phone. I couldn't establish any connection with my SIM or SD-card.
I was tipped to install a original RUU which after a few tries worked and I recived a phone with the latest official Sense rom, HBOOT-0.93.0001 and S-ON of course.
After 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' is fastboot mode I atleast had connection with my SIM and SD-card and now a I have a semiworking but not rooted phone.
Now I want to root my phone and take back my USB-connectitvity but after reading this I understand that I need root for the USB-brick fix, to work but how do a get root with 'HBOOT-0.93'? Paul O'Brians root method only works for 'HBOOT 0.80' and lower and 'UnrEVOked' only works when having USB connection.
So how do I go about getting root and fixing my USB-Brick on my phone?
Thanks /ZeD

I have found a couple of "downgrade" tools but they haven't helped me much since everyone workd from within a fully booted system with a working USB-link which I have not.
Can a downgrade be done with a simple but old RUU file?

An old RUU file will not work.. I have the same problem, and got the same guide on how to fix it. But I sent it in for repair just hourse before, so I didnt have the chance to try it out. I unrooted my Desire as well with no luck. But as I read the guide, a rootet phone is not necessary?

For me it was, I had a another kind of fault at first my USB-brick happend when installing the ariginal RUU. What I should have done was to install a old RUU with 'HBOOT 0.80', root that and do the USB-brick fix, but I didn't know that I would get one ^^.

From the first step in that guide .
1. Follow this r5 rooting guide to do Step 1 of the rooting.
That will give you a basic ROM to work with, with root capability.

Well, I installed RUU with Hboot 0.80.. And then innstalled updates.... How noob is that?! Just asking..

I don't fully understand what you mean but when you have that kind of USB-brick that I have you need a rooted phone to fix it and the old way of rooting a Desire where you don't need it plugged to the computer can only root phones with 'HBOOT 0.80' or lower, the 'unrEVOked' way of rooting a Desire can be used on phones with newer bootloaders but need 'USB Debugging' which can't be used when a USB-brick is in play.
This is what you call a catch22 .
I have now seen a thread where a dude fixed a USB-brick on a non-rooted phone but the exploit that was needed is nowhere to be found. Well, well the hunt is on.

This might come of as being rude but thats not my intention but I have several thread on diffrent forums out about my issue and most of the answers I recieve is from people that doesn't read my first post.
I cant use that downgrade tool since I don't have any contact with my phone through the usb cable.

if you use a card reader to put the PB99 file on the root of your sd card? boot into hboot it will recognize the PB file and prompt for doangrade.
no need to be rude as no intention were to make you feel offended.
if it is of no help no hard feelings,
cheer up and have nice holidays and a Happy New Year!!!

I'm just a bit tired of working with this **** all weekend and answering in my ' cry for help threads' with I don't have root so I cant do that or I don't have a usb connection so I cant do that.
For the USB-brick fix to work I need root and for the downgrade to work I need a connection, it's just one way around my problem which seem to work but I only get 'permission denied' or 'that location is nonexistent'.
If anyone with more knowhow than me wants to take a look, the only thing that would actually fix my issue is here.

My meaning was to say that I think i have the same usb-brick as you (phone is now sent in for repair). It was rooted, but I unrooted it to hboot 0.80 and innstalled updates, wich resulted in hboot 0.93 in hope for it to fix itself. It didnt. As you say, you need root to fix brick. The only solution wich seems to work is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=879068.. It seems to work for some people, not for me... And not for you as well, if i understand your latest reply correctly..

Yeah that's one of the fix I have tried.
It's kind of strange that that doesn't work, cause we should be able to write to that folder but for me it's like it isn't there at all. I checked my spelling and checked with 'androlib' that the working folder for 'Android Terminal Emulator' was in fact 'jackpal.androterm.

SUCCESS!!!!
I finally found a terminal that could give me enough "root" to use the exploit that gave me enough "root" to flash the fix. My phone is fully working now. Time to root the sucker again .

I used 'Better Terminal Emulator' never could get 'Android Terminal Emulator' to work.
I then used the commands given in the link I posted but instead of using 'data/data/jackpal.androidterm/*', I used '/data/data/*.
and then I did what the other thread said, made them executableand ran the exploit and then flashed my modified USB-brick fix.

Omg omg omg this could really be it i will try it asap, will post how it went...and does your bt, radio and usb all work?
Edit: where did you get this "Better Terminal Emulator" and how did you install it? I tried looking in market but didnt found tthis app

Ok I give up
Tried to download Better Terminal Emulator Magic, but it has been removed from market, looked for Pro version, cant download because there is no paid app support in Slovenia, so I can not download any paid app...
Is there any way for me to get this Better Terminal Emulator or will I just have to send the phone to repairs?

[Q] USB brick - Pulling my hair out - Please help!

Hi all
For the last few weeks I have been trying to fix my HTC Desire back to some sort of working state. After awhile, I managed to get back to stock (from CM7), but soon realised I had the USB brick and SD Card issue. For info I used the stock HTC 2.3 Gingerbread RUU and used Alpharev PB99IMG_downgrade.zip for HBOOT (I was using Alpharev S-OFF with CM7).
So, I followed this guide, http://android.modaco.com/topic/309939-usb-brickrickrolledb0rked-fixed/ and managed to mount the SD Card. However, I could not get the update.zip file to apply because I was no longer rooted.
So I followed the guide linked in the USB brick article, http://android.modaco.com/topic/307...ide-now-with-hboot-080-and-os-to-121-support/ and soon realised that I did not have the HBOOT version required. Either 0.75 and below, or, 0.80 and below. I have 1.02.0001.
Not a problem, I thought. I will follow this guide to downgrade, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256 as it specifically says that "...the downgrade does not depend on any version of HBOOT" which is what I need. However, first step is to get a working Goldcard. This is where I start to get into trouble and I'm already losing track of what I'm doing, but I soldier on...
How do I create a Goldcard? I followed this guide, http://android.modaco.com/topic/305672-creating-a-goldcard/ and got stuck at running the ADB command as because my USB is broken, Windows 7 (x64) refuses to see the Phone. Luckily, my father has the same phone, so I put my SD Card into his Desire and managed to create a Goldcard (he is running CM7 on his Desire too).
So Goldcard in hand, I go back to the downgrade guide and then spot my next issue. I can't get Windows to see the phone to use ADB commands and I also can't get Windows to see the phone when it is booted up (the charge light won't even come on now), meaning I can't run the downloaded application.
Not to be outdone I went back to the Rooting Guide and tried both of the downloads with the "step1-windows.bat" command just in case they did work, but both give an error, which on searching, is to do with the HBOOT version being incompatible.
I tried putting on the PB99IMG_downgrade.zip file from Alpharev again, then re-running the HTC 2.3 Gingerbread stock RRU and taking the ROM.zip folder and re-loading it on to the phone, but it hasn't changed the HBOOT version. So my cry for help is.... how can I downgrade HBOOT without using ADB commands or having to have Windows detect my phone? I'm basically stuck with Fastboot and my SD Card.
Even though my phone looks stock, I can't call people as it disconnects straight away, the USB is broken and the battery drains stupidly quickly.
Thanks for any help!

now this IS a sticky situation.. well done on what you've done so far by the way.
On my guide there's a section on how to temproot and flash recovery without USB connection, then flash a recovery that restores usb functionality, but it's only been tested on 2.2 and S-OFF... could be worth a try though

Hi bortak,
Thanks for the reply. It is a bit of a strange situation I agree. I've been putting off signing up and posting for help as I feel quite dumb for breaking my own phone, but I have to admit defeat on this one.
I saw your reply also in this similar topic, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290391, so I will definitely try your suggestion and report back.
Appreciate you taking the time to post.
Thanks.

well this sucks, it's also strange how there is so many people at once with exactly same problem as well!
you could call HTC and ask if they'd fix it for you, and say that this happened after you did the update.

I´ll have a try

just fixed my desire 1 hour ago and it works.
look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1296916
What I did:
I was able to connect my pc and phone through wi-fi and adb worked (adb connect phones-IP-address ) and then pushed, chmod'd 755 and executed zergrush. Gained root via cmd with adb shell in windows and after that I just pushed flash_image and mtd0.img to phone and ran it like you supposed to in the guides (chmod 755 and execute). Rebooted and voila! USB connection is working and now my phone signal isn't dropping anymore - phone fixed!

I fixed my unrootet Phone (official GB 2.3.3, HBoot 1.02, S-ON, USB Brick)!!!!
I wifi connected with adb and got temp root with zergRush!
Then from cmd in adb shell I flashed the misc with mtd0.img!
Rebooting and everything was fine ))
Many thanks to all of you!!!

I can't do both of this, because my phone is not recognized by PC in any way, i must root it without PC.

If you have 2.3 connect to same wifi as your pc and adb connect to your phone's IP. Then run zergrush and you will have temproot over adb from your pc. Then you can flash your mtd0.img and your brick will be resolved

[Q] Root Evo 4.53 With Mac ??

I Know You Can Root The evo 4g With The Revolutionary IO Website .. But Thats On A Windows. I Would Like To Know If There is A Way To Root With A Mac ? 0.o Please , I Hate Running On Stock Running All Those Stock Apps I Dont Even Use. Id Like To Really Test Out That New Sense. Please , Id Hate To Pay $250 Dollars For A Damn Brand new Phone Too , Have A Good Day ;D

I would suggest finding a friend's Windows computer. You can root Gingerbread with Revolutionary.io on a Mac, but you have to do it via a Linux virtual machine.
jd567890 said:
I finally got it!! Here's what I did if anyone else has problems on a mac:
Was able to get it to work using Ubuntu through VMWare Fusion
1) Make sure phone is connected to Linux by going to "Virtual Machine" --> "USB" --> "Connect High Android 1.0"
2) Ran revolutionary through terminal using "sudo ./revolutionary"
3) Copy and pasted serial/beta key as described on this thread many times
4) Program froze on "zerging root..."
5) Letting terminal sit there for a few minutes, I checked the "Virtual Machine"-->"USB" and noticed the phone had disconnected. Clicked on "Connect High Android 1.0" again
6) It completed root and rebooted to fastboot twice and gave me s-off.

If you are lucky enough to still have Froyo 2.2
Since it is not compatible with Gingerbread 2.3, revolutionary would be your only choice IF you have gingerbread. Go to Settings - About Phone - Software Information and see which one you have.

I Cant Downgrade Cause My Main Version Update Always fails.

You have to get s-off before before you can run a ruu to downgrade gingerbread on EVO....so that won't help you. I recommend installing virtualbox and run Ubuntu. It will take about 30 minutes to download and install all necessary files, and plus, you learn some new stuff. Revolutionary works very fast after you have Ubuntu running.
I'm an avid Mac user at home but when I am away from home I use Ubuntu on my clevo p150hm. Both are great platforms and have their plus and minuses.
And also, a "ruu" is technically an exe file that runs for Windows environment. Rom Upgrade Utility.
If.you need help with any if this feel free to contact me via pm.

[Q] flashing and rooting android with android?

Hi all!
I was just wondering...
Can i root, or use some adb commands, fastboot, etc from like an asus transformer to flashor root some other phones or other tablets?
If this is made posible i don't have drag my netbook to my friends or work to flash&root their phones.
And if android is allready there i suppose adb fastboot ps neuter drivers are allready available?
My asus tf300t rooted hydro rom
My htc desire hd rooted cm7 rom
Both have an command prompt app.
So if i wanna root like an htc sensation, can i connect it to my phone&tablet and use the commandprompt fastboot to push the recovery and root to the sensation?... And why not? Lol
Thanks

Wrong forum....this is for Desire HD and not sensation. Anyway, the guide in my signature will help you as an insight for flashing and rooting HTC phones. Make sure that you check Sensation forums before applying something. The tools for the Inspire / Desire HD might brick your device if it is not an ACE...:good:

I have absolutely no idea how you would do that; if you figure it out, you're significantly smarter than I am. AAHK is so easy to use (as long as you read the manual carefully) that doing what you're proposing just seems unnecessary.

Lol i have no clue either...
But why do we still need windows, linux to crack, hack, modify our android devices?
It would be so much easier for me to use my dhd as an device that is able to root,modify other phones, instead of a windows laptop
I think that android is an full OS, so why not use that.
It would be fun to open the commandprompt on my dhd and connect another phone to my dhd and root it, install recovery etc.
I know it cant work..but why not?
When i connect my dhd with the usb cable to my asus transformer they wont pair either. Its to bad i really would like that to work. So i can copy my music from tf300 2 dhd or dhd 2 tf300 without windows or wifi.

Help with root/s-off

Hey guys,
So my ultimate goal was to basically have my phone be like the Google play edition or the nexus 5. I want just pure android without bloatware or HTC.
I'm a newb to android but I tried regular rooting then realized couldn't with Verizon. I then tried the s-off method with rumrunner on linux and the problem is that it keeps telling me I need to be rooted for it to work.
Don't quite understand what's going on here. Guidance would be much appreciated.
