Hey Geeks,
I need some help and I bet that you could help me!
I ve used the search engine to not post anything someone did before. But there was nothing that could help me.
First I ll describe you what I ve done to brick my Desire HD:
My phone is rooted, S-OFF, ENG S-OFF with CM 7. After installing the new ROM I wasn`t able to install anything from the amrket. So I ve looked up for the reason and tried different things to sovle it. I ve read somewhere that it could help to add a partition to my SD-card. So I ve used the ROM Manager to format my sd card and create a partition.
ROM Manager asked me if I am sure bla bla... you know what I mean. After giving ROM Manager su-permission my phone shuts down. From there on nothing happened. (and still no patition on my sd card).
It`s not reacting to the power button, to the volume-down + power button nor is blinking my LED when I connect it to the USB-Port. Seems like it`s out of energy (but my akku was charged before I ve stzarted with the partition of my sd card).
I ve tried to put out the akku for several minutes. No reaction.
Removing SD-Card before pushing the power button: No reaction
Plug in to charge battery without hitting any button... some hours later: still no reaction
Formating SD-Card: No reaction
Then I ve tried to install the RUU 1.32., saved it on my sd-card, plugged phone in to start... my pc is not detecting my phone.
And now I am helpless
So it doesn't boot at all? Because if it doesn't, you are pretty much screwed...no boot -> no access -> no fix, but I don't believe that you can screw your phone up that badly by partitioning your sd-card.
Unless someone has a fix for this (and the problem doesn't solve itself somehow), your best bet is to send your phone to HTC for a repair, they probably won't charge you anything if it is still covered under warranty, since they can't really check for any modifications if it doesn't boot. It is probably a hardware problem any way.

The fact that it doesn't boot at all is a good thing for send it back for warranty purpose. But if you formated your sd-card, you lost root anyway. You have to make a backup of your SD-Card before you format/partition it, and then copy everything back.
And your initial issue was maybe due to an outdated version of Gapps...
why should he loose root if he formats his sd-card? you have root even without an sd-card.
if nothing helps to get your DHD back to life, you probably have to send it to HTC. but I think it's covered by warranty since it's (probably) a hardware fault.
btw, i think i've seen a thread like this somewhere here yesterday... i'll have a look and post a link if i find something
Edit: found it! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013582&page=2
look at page 2. there are some people with the same problem, but there is no solution yet.
But you do have CWM-Recovery on it don't you?
And if, can you get into Recovery?
Had similar Problems, once...
But my phone only showed the white HTC Logo and that was it....
What i did was the following... flashed Revory via Fasbootload from Computer...
Next, i formatted my sd card via computer and copied a new Rom.zip onto it.
In my Case, leedroid.
Next, i just flashed it and it happened to work again, luckily.
he can't even boot into the bootloader.

Hardware fault or not, rooting voids warranty. Let's hope that they can't inspect the internal memory.
Anyway, is the phone reacting to connecting to a proper charger (try to leave it plugged in for a couple of hours even if the LED doesn't light up)? The other thing you could try is to find a friend with a DHD and swap the batteries just to try if somehow you managed to kill your battery.
hi Sleipnir1985,
go back to your shop,
when did you buy it? they must take it for service, or they give you new one.
it is only best solution in this case
if you take battery out for 5! min, then plug it in and hold volume down then push power button - nothing happened, this is it, the end...
cheers/

yes, but HTC replaces your phone if it's a hardware and not a software fault. a friend of mine got his DHD replaced with eng hboot, radio S-OFF, custom rom and so on. and lots of people here on XDA also.
Here`s another mate with the same problem.
I am going to give my HTC to the shop this evening. Push your thumbs that I ll get a new one

Hi all,
My DHD is bricked (I think).
When I try to access to the recovery the phone vibrate 3 times and nothing on the screen
When I send : "adb devices" it replies HT0xxxxxxxxxxx recovery.
The HBOOT driver is installed and in the peripheral manager my DHD appears : android USB devices
What can I do ??

Hi,
My diamond was water damaged a while ago, I let it dry out for a couple of weeks and it did not work, I bought a new diamond and tried the battery in my old one and to my amazment it started up, well to the touch diamond screen anyway, it didn't display any red writing and the sreen stayed on but went black after that. I though the radio must have been gone so put it in the bootloader and tried to flash the same radio I had before 1.17, the white screen came up and all went fine but still the same problem!
I really need the data on my internal storage and so need to at least be able to read that. I don't care about it working forever thats why I bought another one as a doner!
Could someone please tell me what happened and how to fix it! Why does it not get past this? Also I have hard reset it, reflashed the original ROM successfully, reflashed hardspl and reflashed the Stock SPL but it still does the same!
In case it helps the bootloader says:
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.OliNex
MicroP-Diam (LED) v11
PSOC-Wrong Platform(v0x0)
Does anyone know how to, or if there is any way to read the internal storage from the bootloader? I know the phone can read it to flash a ROM from it so why not to get my files off? I can get it into the bootloader so does anyone know any software that can help me to read the files and get them off?
Thanks.
HardSPL HTC repair
Also I called HTC and they said they could try and repair it but I'm not sure about sending it to them as I do want my data but it has HardSPL installed although they did say due to it being water damaged it is an out of warrenty repair and would cost me. Does it matter then if HardSPL is installed as I'm paying for it? I didn't ask them as I wasn't sure. Is there any way to install the stock SPL from the bootloader? As I did try but it didn't seem to work! I am not willing to destroy it further as some people do as I need the data.

pls, a rescue ? I have the same problem, my HTC worked perfectly, till i broke the display, I've fixed it, it worked, but after a day ot two,...it crashed. And I get the same message when I enter the bootloader.
Infinite restart / reboot loop
What a pity! Any progress in this topic?
I have also this same problem. My Diamond crashed a while ago. It happened suddenly after I activated the WiFi module during normal daily use. The unit restarted itself and stucked in an infinite restart loop since then. I reflashed everything possible with success (also stock ROM), radio ROM etc. No way - the unit is rebooting and rebooting in the very same restart loop.
So I can not access the internal storage and can not save my data. Though there are no pictures of my new-born son, but there are some important files and notes I would love to save, but how?
Is there any possibility to access the internal torage from the bootloader?
Is it maybe possible to open the unit - voiding the warranty - and resolder the internal flash storage on another diamond (a working one)?
I suppose there is some problem with the radio, which causes the reboot. The remaining parts are probably OK. Maybe there is some way to deactivate the radio (WiFi module) from the bootloader (MTTY tool)?
Any hints highly apprechiated!!
Thanks guys!

Hi,
Perhaps you could flash another rom to it. but remember you need to clear the ram with mtty before flashing the new rom. get the diamond unlock tool from olipro (its there in the stickies, i guess) and/or flash new radio series then install the new rom of your choice.
Have a shot, and tell us how it goes.
thanks.
Hi i was wondering if anyone can help me?
I was trying to flash my desire (which is rooted) back to stock rom when my pc crashed, now my desire wont turn back on.
I have tried to put it into recovery with power button and volume down but all it does is vibrate once and thats it.
If i plug in the charger and take the battery out the led flashes orange and green, but when i put the battery back in it goes to a solid green which i persume means its fully charged, then when i try to go into recovery again the led goes out and i am back to where i started e.g a dead Desire
Can i make a Goldcard to fix this problem on my pc without using my phone or is that out of the question?
The phone is out of warranty
Please help if possible
Regards mimic

Based on what you have said, your recovery and backup is TU. Without a recovery menu, I suspect, not a lot of folks can help you.
I suppose that if you connect USB to the PC, it gives you Device not found?
If so..... I would say installing the Android Development Kit/Package,
See if it recognizes and you can use it to do things.
If not..... you're Fubarred...
how do i use the android package?
Yes i tried plugging it into the pc and it doesnt find the phone
Do you think there will be anywhere were i will be able to get it fixed and at what cost?
If the cost is too much i will just bin the phone and save up for another

I do it quite frequently.....
ok i plugged it back into the pc and looked in device manager and android usb devices has come up which is showing my HTC
any ideas?
I really appreciate all the help thankyou
Holy sheepskin, you have a USB connection.
Sorry for the batman cliche.....
If you have a usb connection, I would say to flash an RUU back to stock.
Usually this means, you have to have HTC sync instaled...
Bump to smbdy who can direct this person to a stock RUU file...Too many beers.... running on auto-pilot now
I tried running this stock rom which is the 3 network...RUU_Bravo_H3G_UK_1.20.771.3_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_124822
But it says phone not found???
Below is a screenshot of device manager
Not a problem, no thanks necessary, unless we fix the issue.
Ok, so, we have determined, that your PC, can see the phone, at least through device manager.
Next, can you view the contents of the SD card through Windows Explorer?
If so, make sure HTC is installed correctly., just a precaution, look for any warnings in device manager.
I assume, you have not rooted or installed a custom ROM?
If not, with HTC running, you should be able to double click the ROM...XXXXXXXX.exe, and it should connect with the phone, and install... Unless you have the incorrect ROM.
CRAP, you have a Desire, so you should make a "Gold Card" from your SD.
i cannot see the memory card in windows explorer,
my neighbour says he did root the phone and it had a custom rom on it called djdroid or something like that.
I started HTC Sync and it says no device connected
every time i try and install the rom it starts going through the process lioke erasing data and updating signature then it stops and says ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR??
I have tried the WWE rom and the H3G rom but they both come back with an error
Have i got the right rom?? If not could you please tell me which one to get
ps.. how can i make a gold card if i cant boot my phone and will this be able to get my phone up and running?

Dude, somehow, I think he dumped his problems on you.

And believe me, we will all put our 2 cents in on this one to get you up and running.
So, a challenge to all that would care to enter......
And believe me, I haven't seen the "big guns" yet. You just have to shake them outta their shell....
I really hope someone can help me figure this out as i really dont want to throw the phone away
By the way i think i have come to the right place to get the best help
Do you have a GOLD Card????
I mean your SD.
Looks like a typical gold card error when flashing.
for a gold card, look here..

yes i have an SD card which is in my HTC
But i have no idea what a goldcard is?? lol
well i guess i keeep screwing my self over from one problem to another
but after i found a way to install a root without phone being able to load completely i think i bricked my phone here is why
my phone doesnt want to charge n when i try to power on it doesnt vibrate ... but i do see a dim red light when usb is on when its off it goes away n my laptop makes the noise when i connect it
Can you give us a more thorough explanation please. Don't understand properly.
Sent from a Time Lord, using his TARDIS.
Not much info given so i'll start with the most basic question.....
Have you got HTC Sync installed on your pc? And a battery of about 70%?
If you do try installing the latest RUU posted in a few topics under this page....
likewise im bricked
i tried to update my hboot but it frooze n my phone cut off and has no led light when i try to connect thru usb but i hear the beep on my laptop when i try to power nothing or try to boot into hboot nada is that good enough?

I tried to unlock the bootloader on my device a little over a week ago - bricked it completely.
Had updated HBOOT and everything went fine - 'success' message appeared, etc.... Then my handset died and it wouldn't switch back on; it just flashed on and off repeatedly when powered on and I couldn't stop it, unless I pulled the battery. Couldn't access bootloader, couldn't do anything.
Took it to the local Three shop and they wouldn't touch it. So, I chanced my luck with HTC and was upfront about what had happened, i.e. I'd started the bootloader unlock process using their own HTC Dev software.
I've just got the 'phone back and they had to replace the motherboard. Haven't charged me for picking it up, via UPS, the repair OR sending it back to me, also via UPS.
I had hoped they'd ship back with the bootloader unlocked but they haven't! Doh.
Ah well, can't complain. HTC have definitely earned my gratitude, though, and I'll no doubt stick with them in future. I've just got to remove all the crappy pre-loaded software again.
so i basically have a bricked phone damn i needed it only phone i have n probably will have for awhile i had so much important #'s , notes , ext... im clueless to either tell HTC the truth or just buy another android phone idk :/
any ideas?? is it bricked or not i just need help why isn anyone paying this post any attention .. where is all the pros?

You haven't even given details. Did you root? Custom ROM?
Try flashing an RUU.
My experience
This weekend I bricked my phone almost also.
Just installed a new version of my ROM to test and then it hanged or so.
When trying power on (normally and with volume down), nothing happened and I got the 3 vibrates.
I removed my SD card and then the phone would boot again
I really hope I don't get that anymore
BTW: my SD card is really old, around 2 years or more (so that may be the cause)
Format your SD card, then see if that works

I tried guessing his pattern five time and it didnt work it asked me to sign in to my Google account when the screen came up the phone rebooted and it kept doing it every time i turned it on. So i looked on xda how to restore it tried it and im not sure if it restored or not but it strated boot looping.

My phone is not rooted and i don't think usb debugging is on. Any info you guys want just ask. What can i do? How can i fix it? Please help
I'm going to take a guess, that if the battery connection to the motherboard 'broke off', then it's possible you have other physical issues such as the ribbon cable connecting the screen/digitizer to the rest of the phone.
If it were me I would have sent the phone into HTC for hardware warranty (which you can't do now since you soldered it.).
Can you provide some specific information about the phone, can you get into the boot loader, and if so what exact information do you have there? (USB debugging would be easily turned on under system settings, if you can get into it via the screen).

when you first had the phone it won't boot right? but when you tried fixing the battery connection thingy (sorry I don't know whats it called )

have you tried doing a factory reset?
Power button+volume rocker down (volume down button) to boot into bootloader mode then do a factory reset maybe that would work ?

Would probably have to stick to the original Stock RUU update since you're S-ON (would need S-OFF for any kind of custom recovery, kernel, unsigned packages, etc), so would have to use a signed full package from T-Mobile, I don't know much bout that because I usually have my phones rooted and away from stock as fast as I can.
What stock rom did you find before? links?

Thats is the above link i used and i used all the ones that start with "PC10" I rename them to PC10IMG.zip so the phone can recognize it and it did. The only problem is that after it tries to install is say something along the lines of version is older or newer since i tried multiple packages. One package was going through the process and after that it didn't do anything, it didnt say failed or reboot or anything like that. Ive been trying to fix this for like a week and a half now. Ive even flashed custom PC10IMG.zip to see if it could help but nothing the furthest ive gotten is the phone boots for like 2 seconds the screen is blurry and the shuts off and there is an orange light in top right that wasn't lighting up before. Here are the links for the custom packages

You would have to much it to your exact carrier/phone, Just flashing whatever you get your hands on can be very very risky.
For example for me being on T-Mobile with a T-Mobile branded G2, I would grab PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b_26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971109
(noting the *.15 is the original radio my device was shipped with, though I've upgraded to the newer *.19)
I of course have no intention to returning to complete stock, but it's usually the only course of action for most people stuck with S-ON (and then would look into exploiting/unlocking/rooting again from there).

Though ideally using an actual IRC client will work much nicer than a web chat one.
Same problem, but desire z S-ON
Hey guys.
I have the same problem with the boot loop /semi brick. Expect I never had any problem before, with the phone. I have tried taking out the sd card, starting it agian. I have tried without simcard. I have tried to flash the ROM with RUU_Vision_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.42.405.2_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_199043_signed
via Hboot Fastboot USB PLUG mode (which was the only mode the aplication was progressing in until it want to restart the phone in bootloader), but the phone frezzes and the aplication on the computer just keep working, without progress.
The factory reset just frezzes the phone.
The only thing reali seem to not frezze the phone is the revocery option. Here the phone react with restart showing a image of a phone with two green arrows bent around, over the phone. then it turns off the display and vibrate 4-5 times, og stays turn off not reacting to anything other then taking out the battery and you can start the phone once again.

Have no idea but the version of android. I know that usb debugging is NOT on Any hjelp is a big help. I'm a noob, And I have been searching for 3 days for a solution, so I just hope you can help my, otherwise it is going for a repair at the place I bought it.
Thanks
Hey all,
I have a HTC Desire (PB99200) which won't switch on, recognise a charger/ connection to a PC or enter recovery etc. This was failed update, think I used the wrong RRU as I didn't know about the different versions SLCD/AMOLED.
So as far as I know the device is dead in the water, what I want to know is can it be salvaged?
I'm basically a noob but any help would be greatful
bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A, point [5]
If that RUU doesn't work, I recommend find and flash the 2.3.3 GB RUU from shipped ROMs
Thanks for your reply but point 5 doesn't open as page cannot be displayed.
I'm also not sure if u have read my post but it did say it was not being detected by my PC or anything else which would make reflashing stock rom impossible

The only options i can think of is a phone repair shop that has jtag, maybe they can save it but ud probably get a new motherboard off ebay for bout 15 quid which would be cheaper.

I might be tempted to do just that, its a shame cos I know the hardware is fine.
Not sure what the price would be to take it to a repair shop here in the UK. Thanks anyway

Sorry I read your post too quickly
So nothing comes up on screen at all when you try to get to bootloader?
I'm trying to remember whether bootloader is actually 'there', but just not visible if you flashed an SLCD RUU on an AMOLED desire or vice versa.
If it's actually there, then it may be possible to flash the RUU via PB99IMG.zip method, not tried it this way blind but worth a shot before you take it for repair.
- Try the 2.3.3 RUU from here (thanks to @jmcclue)
- Put the zip as it is on the root of the sdcard (not inside any folder), then attempt to boot to bootloader (vol down + power)
- Wait at least 30 seconds - 1 minute for it to scan and load the file, then press volume up to accept the RUU.
- Wait for it to flash, pray that it works!
Also have a look here, you're following this procedure without the screen basically.

It still comes down to flashing wrong RUU.
Was the device working beforehand ie charging?
Flashing the ruu should not break the usb port so i believe it's still charging even though doesn't look like it.
The software should still turn on, just not the screen.
Therefore the above method has a chance of working as long as you have a card reader to copy the PB99IMG.zip to the root of the sdcard. The video explains what it should look like. Plug it in to ac charger after booting to bootloader to ensure it doesn't die while flashing
Anyway no harm in giving it a go. Nothing to lose by trying it!

The phone was working/charging fine before I screwed up the RUU. I am following the instructions you have me and the YouTube video as well but there is no way of knowing if this will work or what its even doing if anything. all I can do it wait through a process I am unsure is working
Since the problem started, it doesn't charge, switch on, respond to PC connection nothing.

So if it was working fine before, I doubt the RUU has broken the charging capability.
The only way I guess is to try the PB99IMG.zip watching the video at the same time plus waiting a few seconds longer just in case. Think you have to press volume up or power at the end to reboot can't remember, or battery pull and hope it turns on afterwards.
No guarantee it will work, though I've seen many people in these forums recover 'black screen after ruu' issue. Still worth exhausting this method before repair
