Develop Bugs

[Resolved] I know there's a lot threads about bricked desires but...

More information added in my 3rd post below...
I've searched the forums, googled and tried praying to the smartphone gods and I can't find an answer. Maybe you guys can help.
I downloaded a ruu that got half way through the process when it said I was using the wrong ruu and to instigate the recovery procedure - which I did. Unfortunately the phone didn't go into the white startup screen (the one you get if you hold the return key while turning on) with the recovery option, when rebooted, therefore preventing it's recovery.
The phone has the green charging light when pluged into usb but there is no 'HTC' screen or anything when trying to boot it. Just a black screen. I removed the battery and all I get is a vibration when turning it on and that's it, although on a few occasions the buttons on the bottom of the unit have lit up but to no avail.
Forgive me if the details are vague but it's all I have. I hope someone can help...

Do you have slcd desire and did you use the correct ruu?
Do you have custom recovery ?

I think I used the incorrect ruu; that's why it sent me to recovery mode. I think it's AMOLED which is why I picked the ruu I did but it is a 2.1 phone and I was trying to get to 2.2. I think I used the wrong ruu...
No, I don't have custom recovery.
Thankyou for helping so quickly.

Anyone have any idea? I get the feeling this phone is truely bricked...

Which ruu did you use to begin with? Was it previously branded?
A generally safe way to recover any phone is to flash the froyo ruu, but you may need a goldcard for that. Start the phone in fastboot mode to get the ruu to work.

The issue is it won't go into fastboot. Just a black screen when I try to turn on the power. The ruu failed and said it couldn't see the phone and to remove the battery and then power on to recover the original rom - that's when it started not working.
I know how to get the fastboot screen but with this phone the screen will not come on.
The ruu i used was: RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe
It was branded to t-mobile and was trying to debrand it. I created a goldcard as well. I have all the drivers needed on my PC but my PC can't see the Desire via USB. USB bricked solutions won't work because I can't get the phone to power up - well the buttons on the bottom light up and the phone vibrates but that's it.
Perhaps my first bricked phone?
Al

don't worry. because of the feedback you are getting (buttons lighting up, green charge light and vibrate on startup), it is not a true brick. it should be recoverable.
edit: try this (edited from here)
(Remember to remove PB99IMG.zip from your GoldCard before copying update.zip)
1. Make sure the update.zip (NOT update.zip.zip!) file is on your goldcard and correctly named.
2. Take the battery out first to ensure the phone is powered off. Then hold vol down and press the power button, and hold vol down for about 5 seconds. That will get you into the bootloader even though you can't see it.
3. Press vol down once. This will select recovery.fastboot is already selected
4. Press the power button once. This will start the recovery.this will start fastboot The phone will vibrate briefly.
4a. plug in your desire into your computer. there should be a *ding* sound from the computer recognising it.
4b. Run the .exe you have downloaded. wait for it to finish. TBH I havent installed an ruu from an .exe before. I presume it is pretty straightforward. after this installs you should be able to reboot your device and be away.
5. Wait 20 seconds or so. Then press vol up and the power button and wait a few seconds. You'll now be in system recovery.
6. Press vol down once to select 'apply sdcard:update.zip'.
7. Press the power button once to start the recovery.
8. After a few seconds press the power button once again.

if you don't trust the ruu you have got, I recommend you download a fresh one that suits the screen you have (whether it be slcd or amoled).

Yeah I have tried that but I am downloading another ruu as I type.
The hboot on this phone was 0.75. Can you (or anyone else) recommend a ruu to suit?
Thanks for the input. I'll keep plugging away...

Just make sure you know which screen version you have and find a ruu file that has a higher build number then the one that you have installed, if its lower you will get a bootloader error

Ok. The phone isn't bricked but I still have the black screen.
The update.zip didn't work as per here but I have successfully installed ruu:
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed
I still get the BSOD (Black Screen Of Death), though.
Anyone have any thoughts on a ruu I should install or do I need to try a different process? Also, how do I find my screen version? I can't see the screen - is there a prog I can use???
Thanks for the help.

I dont think there is a program to identify them, I read elsewhere that even HTC doesn't have systems to show which IMEIs were shipped with SLCD or AMOLED displays at this time.
ala the SLCD Brick page, have you tried the ruu they provide? http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...1.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_137222_signed.exe

You, Sir, are my new idol. That ruu did the trick. The desire is now running super fast and is everything I ever hoped for.
A big thankyou to you and to everyone else who helped guide me through this process.

Now you've got that ROM the next step is to go to 2.2 (which you can do now or wait for the OTA updates to start again). Just make sure you leave your gold card in (if you had to use one in the first place)

I have saved the gold card for just this thing - the phone had a 4Gb card (my gold card) but I use a 32Gb for my music. <n00b>How do I get the phone to 2.2 (do I use another ruu?) and is it worth it?</n00b>
Al

Click on the version number in my signature (it's a link to the full RUU)

Yay!
Nevermind. The phone is updating automatically. How cool is that?
Thanks Eddy.
I have been having 'successful phone upgrading celebratory' drinks so bear with me...
Is it worth going 2.1 -> 2.2?? I seem to recall reading some where that 2.2 ain't all that it's cracked up to be - or am I mistaken?

It's better than 2.1 IMO

I have been given a Htc Desire without a sim card and a memory card, this Htc desire was working previously and was unlocked to any network? The problem im having is the desire will only display the white htc logo at the beginning .

I have purchased a new micro sd 8gb card and a new 02 sim card, Does this mean the mobile is bricked or can someone help with instruction on how to recover? Im a newbie to all this and would very much appreciate any of you chaps helping thank you.

What is your recovery image? What is the current rom? Does the phone boot with the other sd?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App

I think you know that it might take several minutes for the htc desire to boot. If not, please be patient
Also ask the previous owner if he installed any custom rom or recovery or whatsoever. If yes, post the details here and someone might be able to help. If your desire is still a stock phone, i would suggest using your warranty.

I'm guessing the desire was stock and when u did wipe data u got it stuck in a boot loop my advice is to get a ruu n try update the device then go threw the process of rooting n s off sorry I can't link post as on my phone but look in development for WWE ruu n use ur pc to update ur device
Also go to htc.com n install HTC sync so ur pc will recognise ur device when u turn it on
To check if u have a custom recovery power n volume then use the volume button to go recovery n press power n c if it loads into a page
Hope this helps

Thanks for this i tried it but no luck the software said it couldnt find the device (desire)

To check if u have a custom recovery power n volume then use the volume button to go recovery n press power n c if it loads into a page ???
Tried install HTC Sync it failed to find device also? how do i root the phone is their an instruction pdf?...ps thanks for your help.

as mentioned by other users try run recovery. if you get image of phone with exclamation then it is stock recovery you can from that screen hold vol up and press power. a few seconds will give a menu in blue text. try clearing the cache and data from there and reboot.
if that fails load to fastboot and connect to pc and run ruu file for gsm phone. this will flash complete stock image to phone and restore factory settings. you will lose all your data either way to get back to working order.

Never heard of this issue. If i got u correctly, screen goes black with soft keys flashing means screen displays as if opened a black picture. Hboot options inaccessible. Was the os getting booted or not. Check it by making a call to wildfire from other phone. Is ur phone s-off by xtc clip.
Anyway cannot tell u the solution. But coming to the possible ways, u have RUU method and PC49IMG method. And warning, donot upgrade to the official froyo if u r not on it.

sir im using cm7 and my phone is rooted i remember the last time i used my phone is i download some apps in the market then somebody calls me when i pick up my phone its already a black screen and the 4 buttons on the bottom are just flashing so try to pull out the battery it doest open anymore...

and sometimes i can access on hboot but my phone usually hangs...pls help

Just to be clear: your phone gives the same symptoms (black screen, flashing input buttons) in hboot mode?

sometimes i cant access on hboot i should try so many time if some i got luck i got an access it usually hang help....

I suppose you have preformd a nandroid backup somewere in the proces of you installing CM7 and you have Clockworkmod recovery due to the rooting process by unrEVOked.
Try as many times as you need to boot into hboot, and once there, navigate to recovery. In there you can put back a nandroid backup. In my oppinion, that should fix it.
If you no longer have a nandroid backup, just "reinstall" CM7 trough this recovery as you did the first time.
Erwin

I guess if his phone was s-off, then something error might have happened to the partitions which might be causing the issue. Because problem with access to hboot menu is not related to operating system.
And maybe if what I thought is correct, then an eclair RUU might be the solution (some solution which overwrites all the partitions). But nothing sure.

Very true, but shouldn't the problem (inaccessable bootloader) manifest itself every time, and not most of the time?
Just brainstorming here, not saying right or wrong ;-) in contrary, I think its a good thing to try!

dare i say could it be a hardware issue?

last night i got luck to wipe all the data and my phone went back to a stock cm7 2.3 but after several min my phone turns blank again now i cant boot on hboot if i got lucky to enter hboot it hangs again

what do u mean by stock cm7.
As im not using custom roms, this seems something strange and confusing to me.
AFAIK, wiping the data clears the.custom rom.
And u forgot to tell ur hboot version and secure flag (see those in hboot menu). Whats ur hboot version now, and have u used xtc clip to make s-off.
[anyway i think there will be no harm on flashing merely the RUU. So, i think u can make a try of eclair RUU of ur region which has the Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25 might be a hope]

bro i didnt used xtc clip my phone is already rooted im in cm7 nightly build how can i use ruu?and how to use it?i cant even boot on bootloader.....

and when i press now on volume down+ power nothing happening i cant go to the hboot....

Not sure of anything now. As u said u havent used xtc clip, ur phone will be s-on.
U said that when u faced the issue for the first time, ur phone screen went black on incoming call. That means there os is booted. If it is still the case, I think u can go with RUU, but not sure whether it works or not.
And RUU is an exe file to be run on windows pc connecting the wildfire in charge only mode. It is used for flashing the os. If u want to make a try with the ruu, u can download it from
www.shipped-roms.org/shipped/Buzz/
There u should download ur region eclair ruu which has radio version (u can see radio version in the file name of ruu) same as I mentioned in above post. And pls donot download froyo ruu.

do i still need to install htc sync????

Htc sync is not necessary if u have installed htc usb driver which will be 13 MB size. Anyone from those two will be needed.
And as there is no phillipenes ruu, that wwe ruu might be the option for u.

[Tutorial] Unbrick your softbricked HTC Wildfire S

Your phone is said to be bricked when you screw up with your radio partition of your phone. This contains the bootloader which loads the operating system. This is a hard brick and needs expensive hardware to fix. I can only help you with a soft brick.
benjamingwynn said:
Most people seen to not know the difference between a soft brick, a boot failure and a total brick.
Boot failure: commonly referred to as 'the HTC screen', 'the white screen' and of cause the 'help me my phone is stuck - problem'. This problem can be caused by many things, including the kernel, library's and ramdisk (think of a ramdisk like a map of your phones internal hardware). This can easily be resolved by flashing a new ROM.
Soft brick: Is where your phone gives out no screen output, but does give out some vibrations or you can access the bootloader utility/hboot, this can be fixed by flashing an RUU
Brick: your phone is as useless as a brick. It does not turn on nor make any vibrations, and you can not access the bootloader utility. There is no way to fix this.
Here's some ways to avoid soft bricking/bricking:
- Don't flash unofficial radio firmware
- Don't flash unofficial hboot software
- Don't throw your phone
- Don't flash anything suspicious in hboot
- Don't flash an RUU not designed for your phone
Here's some common misunderstandings:
- Roms, on there own will never brick your phone
- Kernels will never brick your phone
- The bootloader is not the radio
- Too many flashes will not brick your phone (however, you may make the internal memory smaller by KB because of bad sectors, but that story is for another time )

It is a good practice to keep at least 3 nandroid backups on your sd card or computer. Also, making a goldcard is also necessary to run an RUU and to flash a PG76IMG.zip these things make it easier to unbrick your phone

You have to use a PG76IMG.zip extracted from your RUU, and not the file given in that post.
kalaker said:
To extract from the RUU,
Launch RUU (For this to be easiest, close all other running applications)
At the screen for the README, launch Windows Explorer
In the navigation/address bar type "%TEMP%" without the quotes.
Choose the first long-named folder (actually, the most recent) and open it.

HI I have a 3 vibe brick on my CDMA VM USA HTC Wildfire S. It started with phone restarting and so I tried to recover though CWMod recovery, as I had backed it up when I first rooted my phone. During recovery it failed. I rebooted my phone then was stuck on the splash screen, after that I tried a battery pull and wound up with the 3 vibe brick. I have tried this method 4 times now, nothing seems to change, 3 vibes on power + vol down, wait 5 min, press vol up, wait 5 min again press vol up, no vibe, no nothing. screen stays black, no other vibes, do a battery pull, start over, same thing again. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated cause I have no backup phone at the moment.

I'm sorry that's my mistake you have to do that with a PG76IMG.zip, not pb31img. Extract it from the ruu of your carrier and then follow the procedure

Hi, really good tutorial bud, mine is stuck on 7 or five vibe seems random at the moment...transffered zip to sd but I think my battery is dead and does not seem to charge on charger and laptop not recognising usb connection (though red led comes on....do I need to find alternative way to charge battery ? Also if in diagnostics mode would this show in device manager... as I am guessing if it does not that means I aint so phone is truly bricked...

hard brick?
Hey all.
I recently purchased a Wildfire S(no simlock, no branding) from ebay. The touchscreen was responding very randomly so (without giving it too much thought, sigh) I decided to flash it. I'm in Germany so I used "RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.3_Radio_47.23c.35.3037_7.54.39.28M_release_236989_signed.exe"
I don't know what I did wrong but now I seem to have a bricked phone. When powered on it displays nothing, it doesn't vibrate and it is not recognizes by Windows when connected via USB, it doesn't even show up in the Device Manager as some sort of device. The display keeps turning on and off every 2,3 seconds regardless if I turn the phone on or i just plug in the battery so now it sits with no battery waiting to be salvaged.
Can you confirm that I have a hard bricked phone? I've read that it is possible to unbrick the HTC Sensation by putting it in QDL mode.
Can this be done with the Wildfire S? I saw two little holes near the upper right corner of the battery.
If it is absolutely impossible for the Wildfire S, can you recommend a place in Munich where I could get my phone fixed? What's a reasonable price so I don't get ripped off?
Thank you all! I hope I've posted in the right forum. Should I open a new thread for this?
Ciao.

I can't boot into the bootloader. As I said, nothing is displayed when I turn the phone on nor does it vibrate, it just turns the backlight on and off every two seconds.
P.S. I tried VolumeDown+Power button after removing the battery, didn't work!

My friend, you have a marvel, not marvelc. ( if it was a marvelc, then the 1st line would be MARVELC EVT1 S-OFF RL & O2 doesn't sell the marvelc). When did you check this?Which PG76IMG is that? It should have a higher s/w number than yours ( you can do it if it is lower also, but that is a much longer procedure). You can make a goldcard by putting your sd card in another htc phone also.

Help me

[Q] HTC Desire RUU Help!!

I all, my friend recently gave me an HTC Desire, which fails to boot at the HTC logo on a white background. I thought it would be a case of simply reflashing the firmware but I can't get any of them to work what-so-ever, here are the details of my attempts so far-
RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_UK_1.19.161.5_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126338_signed - Fails at 140 Error
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed - Fails at 170 Error
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed - Fails at 170 Error
i'm not sure what I am doing wrong - here are the phone details--
Vodafone UK Branded - Sim Lock
Bravo PVT3 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MIRCOP-051D
TOUCH PANEL- SYNW0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
AUG 10 2010, 17:52:18
CURRENT IMAGE 2.33.161.6
Any help would be great, I have no idea of what other RUU I could use.
**Update**, I have also tried copying the rom.zip from each RUU and renaming the file to PB99IMG.zip and then copying it to the SD Card, booting into recovery and selecting BOOTLOADER / FASTBOOT, which then changes to FASTBOOT / HBOOT which then says it the wrong image!!

try 2.3 gb upgrade in my sig (PB99IMG)

Thanks, downloading now, what is the best way to install this and can it be downgraded?

install it the same way u did the others, put on sdcard then with phone off hold vol down + power.
why would u want to downgrade it?

I read online that the GB version wasn't very good and its best to stay with Froyo unless that statement is wrong
**update**
I managed to get this RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed.exe onto the phone, I had tried this already until I started repeatedly pressing the power key in the recovery menu and it started to install and was successful. its just rebooted but is it normal for it to stay on the white HTC screen for a while, it's been a few mins so far.
**update 2** I reflashed it and it now says Radio_V2 Failed-PU, not sure what this means
**update 3** the phone rebooted after the failed update and it now appears to have diesda death, not sure what has happened or how to fix it. it won't switch on, responed when connected to a computer, nor can i get it into recovery, any idea's on a fix?

radio fail is the worste fail u could get. the only way iv seen it being fixed is running the 2.3 gb upgrade from HTCDev over and over again till it works (if it works) good luck

How do you install it, it's a .tar.gz file and how do you install it onto a phone that won't boot up, gonna need help with this one if.

u flash it from bootloader. phone off then hold volume down + power. then plug it into ur computer and run the file.
if u want, check my sig, the PB99IMG of it is there, just put it on ur sdcard then vol down + power then bootloader will find it and ask to update, volume up for yes. make sure uv plenty power on ur battery. all u can do is keep trying, hopefully it will work.

As I have said it's not coming on even when I do the volume down + power, I left it connected to it's charger last night but i'm not sure it even did that as there was no led indication it was charging,
also each other time I put the file named PB99IMG it never asked to update it only ever said there was a file missing, that's when I came across the little trick of repeatedly pressing the power button while in the bootloader which seemed to force it as there was an status indicator in the top right corner which filled up, then it asked to update, the first flash went ok, but it hanged on the white HTC boot screen and did nothing for 20 mins so I started again and that's when I got a failure.

Any help would be good

Does the phone boot anymore? No led flash, anything? You may have bricked your phone for good. Try following bortak's giude, or ask there about your problem.

its a brick.. ruu gone wrong (radio-fail), dont turn on, dont charge, no led nothing. Thats a pure balls but running ruu's is a risk unfortunitly and thats what happens sometimes.

absolutely nothing what-so-ever, it has become a paperweight for now, because its out of warranty HTC are wanting £100 to fix it, but a local repair shop it wanting £40 to look at it but they might not be able to fix the issue

mine is still under warranty, but...is there any way they could detect the phone is s-off (maybe not, i don´t know) after ruu fails and phone is absolutely not responding to anything?
