Hiya i wanted to root and CWM my new desire HD so i followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076
Everything went fine and i got CWM up and running and installed MIUI but didnt like it so i wanted to go CM7 but i accidently went to the first sort of recovery mode (the one with the android on skateboards =)
http://www.nexus-lab.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/desire-hboot.jpg )
So it automatically started to install the HTC android 2.2 Ver 1.32.405.6
that went all fine but now all the apps keep automatically crashing but the worst bit is i cant seem to be able to access the recovery mode or CWM no matter how i press the volume buttons during start up i know the volume buttons work fine as they change volume etc but when i press them at start up its as if the phone ignores them and just countines to turn the phone on normally...
Im new to the desire hd but i do have experience from CWM from Dell Streak days...
Any help appreciated...
Power off phone.
HOLD vol dn, & then press Pwr On button once (Don't release vol dn until have Bootloader menu (HBOOT).
Use vol key to go to highlight Recovery, press pwr button once
Should boot into CWM Recovery (mine shows the HTC logo for a few secs first), if it's installed properly
Edit: If you still have the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard, it will ask if you want to install/update. NO.

Ive tried this but no matter how i press the vol dwn button it refuses to go into recovery mode and just boots up into normal sense...
You say all apps keep crashing,..........
If ROM Manager doesn't crash, you can "Reboot into Recovery" from there.
Hold on im getting something...
i can access the recovery bit but when i highlight the recovery button it gives me a red esclamation mark
so i ran a factory reset and the apps seem to be working for the moment
but still the red esclamation mark
i assume CWM didnt install properly then? but the rom manager says its installed fine but when i click on the boot into CWM it gives me the same symbol?

Hi there,
I think your phone might not be totally powering off, hence that's why you are not able to get into the bootloader [ the one with Android on skateboards ]
Try this: Make sure your phone is powering off completely before you try to boot into the bootloader. Go to go into Settings > Applications and uncheck the "FastBoot" option in order for it to power down completely.
Then try the same sequence again. Holding down the Volume Down button while starting up.
See if it works.
What happens when your in that ! screen, HOLD vol up & press power button once?
Also
You can also try to boot into Bootloader or Recovery via ADB commands.
Enusre USB debugging enabled and fastboot option disabled.
Check adb connection to phone first in CMD (Command prompt) type:
"adb devices"
you should get a serial number of the phone HTxxxxxxxxxx, meaning it can communicate ok
Then try either;
1. "adb reboot recovery"
2. "adb reboot fastboot"
Ive managed to fix it by going to rom manager and installing a previous version of CWM
Thanks all the guys for the help! XDA FTW
OH just a quick side note if i did every want to just say return everything to normal like how i got the Desire HD you know no CWM or custom roms just with the sense v1.7 how would i do that?
Make a CWM recovery of your Setup now, and also keep it on you pc for safe keeping. Never know if the sdcard becomes corrupted or not. Also make a note of which recovery version was made to produce the backup. Some are incompatable when trying to restore you backup with a different version.
If you mean normal, there are a few links around to revert to stock (if that's what you mean), and tools to help make s-on again. By flashing the stock RUU, you will lose root, and it will overwrite the recovery with stock recovery. If you had to made a goldcard prior to rooting, you may require this.
Added info from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
To go back to S-ON:
•Flash stock ROM (RUU)
•Temproot using Visionary
•Use my tool, do Stock CID and S-ON (enter brand CID if you had a branded device, see second post)
•Enjoy your factory-state phone

Adding on to what UpInTheAir said, "If you still have the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard, it will ask if you want to install/update."
Note:
If u have finished the Downgrading process and u r done with the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip, remove it from the SDcard, safekeep it on your PC somewhere (in case your might need it again, maybe).
If you do not remove it, each time that you startup into the bootloader [yes, the one with the Android on skateboards.. Hehe.. ], it would automatically scan and if it finds that PD98IMG.zip file, it would begin loading the image to install the 1.32 stock ROM.

I have a really huge problem. I think my Desire bricked completely.
I don't really know if it was SLCD or a normal Desire, while unrooting due flashing PB99IMG.zip the phone turned black, stopped, done nothing and vibrated once.
Now it doesn't do anything anymore. When I plug it in and boot the phone, windows says 'Android 1.0' ... And nothing more.
Is there any solution out there or is it fully bricked?
Go for warranty.
Rubbish!
Read and follow this thread

In order to help you more you need to give a full account of what you were trying to do and how as well as relevant device info such as were you already rooted, did you try to s-off and anything else that maybe relevant.
Sent with Desire.
Wrong section!
Also as windows recognizer it, it's not bricked(probably wrong ruu and you are slcd bricked so it boots in fastboot, you just cant see it)
Just run the correct ruu through usb.
Also would you like to share which ruu you flashed?
I also don't know why people are running those pb99img.zip things for unrooting =.=
So, um, urm, I forgot to check for SLCD, I know.
I tried this one: RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe
I think this one was the wrong one.
After trying a lot out:
When I hit 'BACK'+'POWER' the windows device-manager says 'Android 1.0' - and then I have three options, I tried, with vol-down and hitting power.
1.) dunno
2.) reboot
3.) reboot to the bootloader
It is still black. I tried with the alpha-rev-pb99img - booting via VOL DOWN and POWER and hitting constantly POWER UP - it seems to do nothing.
fastboot doesn't respond, adb list also no devices...

That RUU is way too old. You should have ran the 2.29.405.5 one.

Android 1.0 is ADB driver, download Android SDK from here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
This will also install ADB driver.
Nope it's the fastboot driver(not the same as adb)
To solve this just boot using vol-down and connect it to usb. Then run the newest ruu(would be 2.29.405 something) This should flash the newer bootloader with slcd support, and you are back up and running in no time.
Thanks for you help, but anyways, the phone isn't responding, normally.
It only says 'Android 1.0' - and nothing more.
ADB DEVICES doesn't list the phone and FASTBOOT DEVICES neither.

Have you tried using a card reader to put the correct 2.29.405.5 PB99IMG.zip on teh root of SD then boot to Hboot (Down+power)?
man in teh device manager on your computer the drivers of your phone are instaled??
Have you now downloaded the latest RUU as suggedyed?
Have you removed the previous PB99IMG.ZIP file from your SDCARD?
Have you gone in to HBOOT and then after some time -VOL once then POWER key to get the phone in to FASTBOOT then run the new RUU?
the thread that I linked you to advises on the very first post how to extract the ROM.ZIP file if you are unable to flash the RUU conventionally.

theoretically phone when you open or even see it , enter fastboot automatically ,you can revive it , is simply just have the drivers installed
happened to me and I could restore it to life , no panic

So now download this PB99IMG.ZIP from this link, copy to your sdcard and -vol + power button, holding both for about 6 seconds.
Once you have overcome this little learning curve........
1. Make your sdcard in to a GOLD CARD.
2. Go to www.unrevoked.com and follow the Desire how to Root.
3. Go to www.alpharev.nl and download the .iso to get S-OFF.
then you will ask be done within a matter of 30 minutes

Hi!
I recently rooted my Desire with unrevoked 3 and I installed the ReflexS rom. Everything worked perfectly!
I was curious for Cyanogenmod and I downloaded version 7.0.3 directly through Rom Manager. When the download was completed it suggested to install which I agreed. I think clear Dalvik cache was marked, but clear data cache was not. I agreed... maybe my first mistake.
After this Cyanogenmod was installed, but my Desire stayed on the boot screen (sakteboarding android with running arrow) for over 30min so I took out the battery. I restarted and it goes well until the android setup screen "tap the android to begin". I can tap and it gets glowing, but it does not continue! I can not go any further than this. The only thing I can do is choose a language or shutdown.
To overcome this issue I thought of recovering/reinstalling my previous ROM. I also have a Titanium backup.
Now here's the problem: when start up into recovery, my volume buttons won't work so I can not enter into the recovery menu.
What should I do?
I'm getting desperate, because my phone is down at the moment!
Thanks for your help!
you mean volume buttons dont work in recovery or in bootloader ?
in recovery you can navigate using trackpad, in bootloader you must wait around 10-15 seconds until you can use volume buttons to navigate.
and yes it was a BIG mistake not to make a wipe before the flashing of cyanogenmod....
you should have done a full wipe
Ok will firstly, go to the Cyanogenmod stable topic to read how to install out. Secondly, avoid rom manager. Thirdly, to boot into recovery, boot your phone like normal and plug your phone into your pc. After about 20 second the usb will kick in. This is where you use the adb reboot recovery command in command prompt or terminal. Enjoy.

Not need todeassemble or using adb.Just do this and you will be fine.
Hello!
I have a HTC One X (EU-version), and it's unlocked.
I used to have Android Revolution HD ROM installed, and would try a new kernel. So I downloaded the new faux kernel (faux_004b5_arhd_7.0.0_modified.img)
Somehow it didn't work, and my phone keep restarting. So I go to the recovery mode, and tried to reinstall the ROM, without whip.
After that I made a reboot, my phone keep reboot. Now I can't go to the recovery mode, either can I flash my device.
I really don't know what to do now.
I hope someone can help, and I posted in the right section.

I had that problem before too. If the "hold power button for 10 seconds then press volume down and power buttons simultaneously" doesn't work, download Quick Boot from playstore and it would allow you to choose to either Reboot, boot to recovery, or the bootloader
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
trick is to run 'adb reboot bootloader' or 'adb reboot recovery'.

When I hold the power button and volume down for 10 secounds, I come to the fastboot menu.
How can I download Quick Boot, when I don't have acces to my memory. I can't see what I have on my memorycard (obs. because I can't go to the recovery part), either can't connect to the computer, since I'm in a bootloop.
I'm afraid while I was doing this stuff, my battery was low. But it didn't die under the process.

EDIT: I followed my friends advise, and tried to erase fastboot cache, which seems not able do to. I just getting the message: < waiting for device >.
Dear God, what have I done with my phone!
Dear OP, I believe there is a solution. This situation has occurred with my device more than once. I too believed I had lost it until it resolved itself. There are several things you can do to ensure it works again. I wiped the ROM on my phone before the problem began, so I was stuck with a dead phone until I found a way to get recovery to work again. If it's possible, enter Fastboot and install a new kernel onto it, and THEN use fastboot erase cache. If that is not a viable option, make sure the USB wire is not plugged in when the device boots. By this I mean holding down the lower volume button and initializing the menu that allows you to select Fastboot, Recovery, Factory Reset and other command options. Once the device boots into the menu, you may then plug in the cable and enter Fastboot mode. If none of the above work, let the battery deplete itself until device turns off. Once you have done that, plug it into the wall charger, and then volume down and power up. If the device says something like "reading SD card", disconnect the USB and the menu will fully load. That is when you select Fastboot. Keep the device on, plug it into the pc and send your kernel commands to your device. Ensure that you also erase the cache via Fastboot. Your device should now be fully operational. I hope I was able to help.
Have found myself in a similar position, all the following assumes you're using windows as you desktop OS...
To double check your recovery is broken, get into fastboot mode (power on while holding volume down), use volume down to highlight "hboot" then press the power button to select. Then press volume down to highlight "recovery" and press power button to select. If that works, then recovery is fine, just go ahead as you normally would to recover the system.
If you can't get into recovery then you have a slight problem.
Since you can get the device into fastboot mode, the priority is to get it to talk to your PC. Get the device into fastboot (power on while holding the volume down button). Once you're into fastboot, plug in the USB cable and verify the connection to your device using the following command :
Code:
fastboot devices
This should show you a single entry for your device. If it doesn't show anything, then unplug the device, download the naked driver pack (available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769) and unpack it into a sensible location. Plug the device back in, if it can't install software automatically or nothing appears you may have to use device manager to update the driver for the device. Find its entry in the device tree (it will probably be listed as an unknown device), RMB on its entry in device tree then select "Update Driver Software..." from the menu that appears, tell it to search automatically then point it at the location where you unpacked the naked driver pack. That should sort out any misconceptions windows has about not being able to talk to the phone.
Once you have fastboot access, you can reflash clockworkmod. You can obtain the latest version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
flash from fastboot using the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
Once flashed, unplug the usb cable.
Use the volume up and down to highlight "hboot" on the fastboot menu, then press the power button to select. Once in the hboot menu, scroll to the "recovery" menu item and press power again to select. You should find yourself in familiar territory at this point.
hth
EDIT : Sorry, it's nearly 2am here, I'm very tired and I've just re-read your initial post. If you've flashed a custom kernel then you MUST have fastboot access (or it's subsequently broken). Download your ROM (if you haven't already got a copy on your PC) and extract boot.img from it. Get into fastboot mode (vol down + power on) and plug into your PC. Do the following :
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Unplug USB cable, use vol up/ down to highlight "REBOOT" then press power to select.If you get stuck in a bootloop, you can try going into recovery via fastboot (select "hboot" from the fastboot menu then "recovery" from the hboot menu), then select "erase cache", then go to "advanced" and "wipe dalvik cache". Then go back and reboot the device. See if that helps. If not, then go back to recovery using the aforementioned method and re-install your rom, then erase cache and wipe dalvik cache.
Thanks for replies.

Yes, I was dumb, started at low battery level, even tho, everywhere says: Make sure you have more than 70 %.
I can't wipe, or install anything, since it's recovery mode that doesn't work
Atm., I charge my phone, because I need to have 10 %, I use "Stuck in fastboot with low battery. Use this BATCH file!" guide. So far it works.

If it doesn't show anything, then unplug the device, download the naked driver pack (available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769) and unpack it into a sensible location. Plug the device back in, if it can't install software automatically or nothing appears you may have to use device manager to update the driver for the device. Find its entry in the device tree (it will probably be listed as an unknown device), RMB on its entry in device tree then select "Update Driver Software..." from the menu that appears, tell it to search automatically then point it at the location where you unpacked the naked driver pack. That should sort out any misconceptions windows has about not being able to talk to the phone.
Once you have fastboot access, you can reflash clockworkmod. You can obtain the latest version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
flash from fastboot using the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
Once flashed, unplug the usb cable.
Use the volume up and down to highlight "hboot" on the fastboot menu, then press the power button to select. Once in the hboot menu, scroll to the "recovery" menu item and press power again to select. You should find yourself in familiar territory at this point.

EDIT : Sorry, it's nearly 2am here, I'm very tired and I've just re-read your initial post. If you've flashed a custom kernel then you MUST have fastboot access (or it's subsequently broken). Download your ROM (if you haven't already got a copy on your PC) and extract boot.img from it. Get into fastboot mode (vol down + power on) and plug into your PC. Do the following :
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Unplug USB cable, use vol up/ down to highlight "REBOOT" then press power to select.If you get stuck in a bootloop, you can try going into recovery via fastboot (select "hboot" from the fastboot menu then "recovery" from the hboot menu), then select "erase cache", then go to "advanced" and "wipe dalvik cache". Then go back and reboot the device. See if that helps. If not, then go back to recovery using the aforementioned method and re-install your rom, then erase cache and wipe dalvik cache.

Hey, I am having similar problem with my htc one x here. I did some stupid stuff, tried to install jelly bean and now my device is broken.,
So the thing is, phone is stuck at HTC logo, I cant access recovery mode. And my phone now says tempered and relocked at the top so I cant get it fixed with my carrier which is rogers.
I tried installing RUU for rogers but it says image error and wrong ruu. I can't find the right one and trust me i've searched everywhere.
I can connect my phone to computer and see fastboot usb. But other than that I can't do anything with it.
I tried flashing cwm but it says failed. I'll attach image here with it.
If there is any way to fix it, please help, I just bought this device and I love it, dont wanna lose it.
Also, I read that I can add custom recovery to the phone but without recovery menu I can't do that either.
Thanks!

I have been charging my device with the wall charger, eventhough I cant see the battery level I'm pretty sure it's around 80. Cuz before I go into fastboot usb when I attach my phone to computer I charge the phone first.

I was trying to install http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1757323 Cynogen 9 beta on my htc one v..
I did following:
1. Rooted with HTC Bootloader
2. Flashed kernel with BOOT.IMG Linked in above mentioned thread
3. Phone doesnt boot up.
4. It doesnt respond.
I have just did above mentioned steps and it doesnt boot up... PLEASE HELP
while its booting and it gets stuck on boot animation boot into recovery do a format clean cache dalvik cache then restore the nandroid backup.....
Also the cause of this is because you didn't do a full wipe for data system cache dalcik cache.......reply what happens
So the next time you wanna flash it follow the steps carefully cz I did it and it worked normally
Also you should be careful if you are primoC or primoU
Never tell anybody outside the family what you're thinking again.

But I dont have nandroid backup because it was after that step...I was to take backup...i just flashed it as step 1 says...And i just did it the way tutorials told me to.... And when I press power button..phone wont respond at all...I will have to take it to HTC service center??
Please help me dude!!
**** if Lloir is saying that your phone is bricked then your doomed.I don't know if there is a way,you should ask Lloir cz he's a dev
Never tell anybody outside the family what you're thinking again.
if you plug in your phone to your computer:
1. do you have LED on? as in charging.
2. it is recognized by PC?
don't worry it is not bricked. the thing is, you flashed the kernel and the phone does a reboot after that automatically.
do you have a custom recovery installed? cwm, twrp... it was one of the steps from the tutorial.
if you do, head over to the developer section, take Hasoon all in one tool. connect your phone to your pc, open the tool, at the bottom 2nd box, you should see "Reboot in Recovery". select that and press the button.
now your phone will reboot in recovery.
here, you should wipe:
cache
dalvik-cache
system
factory settings
now select to flash a rom (in twrp recovery it is called install in cwm i guess is flash a custom rom or something like that).
select the cm9 rom that is sitting on your sdcard.
after this is finished, reboot.
you must do these steps after you did the first two questions above. if your phone gets led, it is not bricked.
Dude tell us what you have exactly done.step by step from when you unlocked bootloader till it didn't boot
Never tell anybody outside the family what you're thinking again.
yeah, steps... did you even install clockwork mod recovery, or flash the ROM? how did you root after you unlocked bootloader?

Let me tell you step by step what I did...
Step 1. Unlocked bootloader with the help of www.htcdev.com
Step 2. Boot into recovery mode. Status now say *Unlocked*
Step 3. Flashed by putting the boot.img in one folder with fastboot.exe. Ran following commands in command prompt after navigating to that particular folder:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Step 4. Now, my phone loads up saying . "This build is for htc use and blah blah" on booting screen below HTC logo... it stucks up on HTC ONE V screen. after sometime I tried restarting by connecting it to PC and Clicking on boot into recovery from HTC ONE V ALL IN ONE TOOL I got from this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676686)
Step 5. Boom. Its wont reboot. No response at all.

I don't know whether you really bricked your phone. What I can see here is your phone is out of battery. Plug it to a wall charger and leave it there for atleast 4 hours or the best 8 hours.
Now back to step you taken:
1. Correct
2. Correct (but that is not recovery mode, that is bootloader/hboot mode).
3. Wrong... you should flash a recovery first.
4. Correct ... now your device run out of battery
5. No battery.
So the correct way... after you fully charge your device.
1. Download the rom.zip
2. Take out the sdcard, connect PC and put the rom.zip onto sdcard, put back the sdcard to your device.
3. Download a recovery (either CWM or TWRP).
4. Press Power On (assuming your device is fully charge and not bricked).
5. It will get stuck at ""This build is for htc use and blah blah", press power button and hold it and you will see the three button blinking and your device shutdown.
6. Release the power button, hold the volume button, the device will boot to hboot. Press power once, it go to fastboot
7. connect to PC, flash the recovery. Same way like you flash boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
8. once done, press power once, it will go to hboot, select recovery
9. do a nandroid backup as you still have a stock rom as I don't see anywhere you said you already flash a ROM (or am I missing that?)
10. Select the rom.zip and install your desired rom.
11. Once complete, reboot run setup and you are done.

DUDE!
Your phone has nothing. It is not bricked. It is in perfect shape. Its just, that you need to do some steps in order to make it work. I'm sorry that no one was able to answer you but it was an easy one.
What you need to do is following:
SEE HERE FOR DOWNLOAD THE CWM RECOVERY
Steps:
download the zip file and extract (From the link above) (you will get recovery.img file)
Download and install the Android Standard Developer Kit, I placed the folder at C://
I think fastboot.exe have to be downloaded seperately because it is not available in the latest android SDK Link
Place the recovery.img where the fastboot.exe is located (bundled with the SDK)
Now open command prompt and navigate to your Android SDK folder by pressing cd
Now type:
fastboot flash recovery name_of_the_recovery.img (the name will be recovery with the extension .img)
after that just boot into bootloader and from that menu, using your up and down volume buttons, use RECOVERY.
Now assuming that you've installed only the kernel, what you need to do is, find the menu for mounting your SDCARD under the CWM recovery (it should be in advance menu or something)..
Mount the sd card and place the CM9 rom on the sdcard.
after it is finished loading your rom onto the sdcard, unmount it.
now:
Wipe everything! This include: Cache, Dalvik Cache, and most importantly System.
Now go ahead and install CM9 after and ONLY after you've wiped those. You can double wipe if you are in doubts. After you install the rom, reboot.
Now it should boot ok!
Keep me posted if you managed to do it!
