If it isn't rooted, then your warranty should be intact, so why don't you send it to HTC Care? They should fix it in no time

Your carrier should provide you a replacement. If you want to fix it yourself, root and follow the guide, but if it turns out to be a hardware fault, you will have to pay for repairs, cause your warranty will be gone when you root it.

You can not root on-device with HBOOT >= 0.7x. And yes, I am ninety nine ****ing percent sure it's NOT usb-brick.

So you could get it repaired at HTC Care in less time you spent trying not to.

If you HAD root before usb bricked, panicked and went back to stock, there is a chance to solve this without servicing the phone.
Just browse my threads, there is a one starting with "Any chance...". I can't seem to grasp how to link with this app
However if usb stopped working on an unrooted stock rom, chances are this is not an usb brick, and you will need to service the phone anyway.
Just be careful, read everything before attempting, and mind that there are different Desire models.
Good luck

Well there is no ready solution, but you can get temp root access without any problems, and hboot has nothing to do with that (just the Linux kernel version).
Contrary to popular belief the exploit needed to get root access just relies on enabled usb debug and not actually having the phone connected to a pc via usb.

I see they got it to boot on their Desires and are freakin out, rightfully so. I wonder if the G2s will get a port..if I knew anything about deving I would be over this like flies on sh*t, but alas..I know nothing..
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App

Thanks for the link. And I bet our devs would love to get it going. I've looked around and the vision seems to be one of the more buzzing forums in terms of development. And I agree, if I could then I would most definitely port it as well. It'll get working on our visions, considering our hardware is more accelterated and powerful than the desire. I know ill be getting the Sensation asap, but the G2 is a great phone and great for flashing roms, etc.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App

The original Desire got it booting? I know the DHD guys got it booting (without a touchscreen though).
If none of our devs take this up, which I doubt, I'll try port the DHD port of the Sensation. Which I'll fail.
Meh.

Dammit, it was the DHD guys :-(

I completely agree. If my old G1 could run windows98, Sense, and even 2.3 without much trouble then the G2 should have NO problem I would think.

Yeah I agree. I think that they just say that to completely knock out any questions people would ask. But we'll see of course.

Thanks, is it the latest version with the latest updates?

It's Android 2.2 with Sense 2.0. But do not upgrade, otherwise it will be harder with rooting later. And press the thanks button, its faster than type "thanks".

Which tutorial did you read? Try the noob one. Flashing custom ROM and custom kernel will help you play games smoothly even without overclocking. Once you have successfuly unlock bootloader and install custom recovery, you can freely install custom ROM which is extremely fun

Tell me about it! When i joined xda (early July) I did not know the r of rooting. And barely one month, my phone is rooted! Read and learn, and you will too, soon root your phone

Thanx all i am now rooted on my one v but still using my optimus as my little tester monkey before I do any thing. Any one with a one v wanting to root HTC. Com has a good method and they give u the code to unlock the boot loader page again thanx for the advice

[Q] Rom?!

Sorry but ive got a pretty nooby question. If you want a rom like the Viper rom, Do you need to root youre device to use that ROM?

Yes. There is no way to flash a rom without unlocking the bootloader rooting the phone and on most devices flashing a custom recovery.

The ROM that comes with the phone. Did you get your phone subsidized through a carrier with a contract? Trying to wrap my head around why you are nervous about rooting.

Welcome to XDA devs. You'll find that most of the development forums have "sticky" posts at the top that will explain not only the rules (you'll see one applies to you already) and standards, but also some helpful "noob" guides to get you started.
From your initial question (and follow-ups) it appears you're brand new to android. That's cool, we all were once. Do yourself a favor and do about an hour of reading--straight reading--before asking any more questions. This is not an insult, it will be much faster than asking, waiting for a response, then asking another question ad infinitum.
Finally, specifically to your question: most of what happens here on XDA devs requires unlocking your bootloader and rooting; if you're not comfortable with doing that, this probably won't be the best forum to you. Again, no offense intended. Your fears are well-founded: you could break your phone if you don't understand what you're doing. That said, I'm pretty much computer illiterate, but have had a great deal of success around here by just reading, reading, reading.... and then following directions in the posts (and there's many posts in which people give fantastic step-by-step directions.
So good luck, search the forums, read the forums, and ask questions once you've tried something and it's not working the way you expected. And have fun!

They're right, you don't need to root to flash a ROM. In fact, most if not all custom ROMs are pre-rooted. I'm suggesting you read first to understand what "root" really means; once you have the basics down, the idea of messing with your phone won't seem nearly as frightening.
BTW- another thing about XDA: click the "thanks" button in addition to saying thanks in your comment.

I ported one Viper rom. It was very laggy due to the overclock default of the rom with Screen off, and bulkyness in size.
You DONT need to root your device to use a rom, but you NEED to unlock the bootloader.
There goes your loophole.

So i have to unlock bootloader and recovery and thats it?
