Hi sir,
Can anyone please help me recover my HTC Desire? It has been stuck on the startup screen. It can enter boot but when i press recovery, it goes back to the startup screen . I have tried flashing from the sd card but it will not flash, sometimes saying cid error. tried several shipped roms using the ruu but it always says the rom is not compatible with my device . This phone apparently came from Chunghwa Telecom since it has a Senao sticker on the screws and battery. On the hboot, these are written on my device :
Bravo PVT3 Ship S-OFF
HBOOT - 0.93 0001
MICROP-051d
Touch Panel - SYNT0101
Radio - 5.14.05.17

I bought this desire from someone else who have apparently flashed different roms . Tried to call him several times but he won't answer my call anymore.
Tried flashing it via fastboot:
Here is the cmd procedure that i did :
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7600]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\JEFFRY>cd /d "C:\platform-tools"
C:\platform-tools>fastboot devices
HT09SPL00780 fastboot
C:\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.1.img
sending 'recovery' (3936 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... OKAY
After this procedure, i still cannot enter recovery .
can anyone please help me as to how i can recover my desire?
Thanks in advance.
Press power button and the return button, you will go in fastboot then go in recovery and install update.zip.
I hope I can help you

Did you wipe everything before trying to flash the recovery?
Code:
fastboot erase system -w
That will wipe everything so use with discretion!

Thanks sir, was not able to use this anymore since my phone was restored by way of using the goldcard. For all who helped me and viewed this thread, Thank you very much
Any time Buddy
H, i am having a similar error.
Background, While loading new rom for the first time the battery fell out and stopped first boot. (i should have been more careful). Now it boots into Android but dont get anything, no buttons work, no touchscreen. Just background and taskbar.
I can not get back into recovery and have tried flashing new RUU but it says Mail is older.
Not sure what to do, please help.

I'm messing around since 3 days with a non working Desire.
I was trying to root that Vodafone UK Branded Phone with a goldcard, but it somehow did't really work stable.
So I managed it to install a RUU in order to revert it and begin the Process from the beginning on:
1.This was the RUU, and everything went fine: RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed
2.Then I tried to downgrade my HBOOT from 0.93.0001 to 0.80 using the method in this thread (with goldcard!)
3. During the installation of the PB99IMG.zip something went wrong and (maybe a mismatch with goldcard or the mtd0.img, i still don't know / understand) HBOOT could not be updated and RADIO-V2 also
4. now I cant boot the Phone at all or issue adb commands (I think the phone needs to be fully booted and USB-debbug-enabled for this) so I cant follow any of the solutions wich I found in the last two days. A PB99IMG.zip is also not flashable in HBOOT since it just cancels after "Checking..[PB99IMG.zip]" and returns back to the HBOOT screen.
Here's my phones specs:
CID: VODAP102
PVT4
S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
SLCD
RADIO 5.11.05.27
If someone has an idea where to start, any help would be greatly apreciated. If someone is even willing to assist via instant messaging or skype I would be happy to compensate his time with a donation via paypal! Thank you in advance!
EDIT: SOLVED!!!
cosine83 from the unrevoked IRC channel solved it for me!!
I was able to enter RUU mode and flash the PB99IMG.zip in 2 quick steps!
In fastboot mode:
1.fastboot oem rebootRUU
2.fastboot flash zip PB99IMG.zip
huge thanks!!!

for unrevoked I need my phone booted up and have debugging enabled as far as i know, but I cant boot it...
EDIT: I followed your guide from HERE but the result is still the same. I am not able to flash the PB99IMG.zip HBOOT reads it (the blue bar on the right top goes all the way up but then comes "Checking..[PB99IMG.zip]" and the procedure just aborts.
I think it must have something to do with a wrong mtd0.img which was flashed during my first attempt to downgrade (mybe not matching the PB99IMG???) or there is a problem with the goldcard (i am very certain that I did everythin correct with the gc, did it manually and also tith the gc-maker)

well I can select the "recovery" from the Hboot menu and also try flashing an update.zip, but every time I do this I get:
E:failed to verify whole-file signature
E:signature verifivation failed
Installation aborted
The best way should find a correct hboot P99IMG.zip and put it on the SD
Should ask to unrevoked team by the irc channel.

EDIT - hboot 0.93 ?
Sent from Desire Bravo with xda App. Leedroid ROM HD port inside.
I thought it wasn't possible to change hboot until you s-off? or does a goldcard make it possible when s-on?
if you can access the bootloader menu (vol down + power) then you should be able to fix your phone.
Do you try to install an ruu Rom?
Sent from Desire Bravo with xda App. Leedroid ROM HD port inside.
Boot the phone into bootloader menu.
connect usb cable.
in command prompt load the SDK folder, instead of typing adb.exe type fastboot.exe.
place the hboot you want into the "platform-tools" folder in the SDK directory - if its in the pb99img.zip then extract the .img file from there and place just that file into the folder.
type "fastboot flash hboot *name-of-file.img*"
if this works then type
type "fastboot reboot-bootloader"
type "fastboot erase cache"
Not sure it will work though as you are S-ON.
However you should be able to flash a recovery through the same way, type "fastboot flash recovery *name.img*". Not sure if this will help fix it, but if you can access recovery then its a start! Obviously you'll need to download a recovery first and place it into the platform-tools folder.

You can if you are able to access recovery.. or try to just turn the phone on and see.

I'm talking to some of the guys from the IRC, so far no solution in sight. Maybe tomorrow there are some ppl online who are familiar with the HTC Bravo GSM...
HI Guys... this is my first post here so thanks for the great forum
Here is my issue, I've installed The All-in-one tool kit to unlock my phone, all went ok for unlocking,
then i tried to flash a rom and i think i messed up pretty bad.
Just had my One X 2 weeks ago fist time flashing a One X (Did it several times with my Galaxy Ace)
Now my phone keeps on rebooting and eventually gets stuck on boot animation with the red message from CMW saying That this build is for development purposes only ect....
I cant even get in the bootloader, what are my option here?
Thanks in advance
Miamijice
it's strange that you can't go into bootloader, but anyway, can you go to recovery? if so, try to reflash. but anyway you'll need bootloader to flash boot.img ("fastboot flash boot boot.img" on cmd).
or, try to go into recovery, connect to pc, and type in cmd: "adb reboot bootloader", and you should go into bootloader, then flash boot.img

Ok... so i got into bootloader now (kinda tricky when phone reboots on it own.)
Once in bootloader i choose fastboot, then pc connects to phone, then i did fastboot flash boot boot.img in cmd in my c:/android folder (i have the ziped rom file in there too)
C:\Android>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (4302 KB)... OKAY [ 0.953s]
writing 'boot'... OKAY [ 1.210s]
finished. total time: 2.165s
This is the result. My guess from there is to go in recovery from the bootloader. But i get stuck again rebooting and nothing happends.
I guess im missing something here... Thanks for your patience!
Reflash the recovery again and erase cache with fastboot commands, maybe it helps

hi
i have the same problem with my SE neo ,, i dont know what is this starnge thing happening
i will try the tool and kindly suggest me what i can do now?
Enter bootloader by holding power + volm down for 10 seconds, check if your phone says ***LOCKED*** or ***UNLOCKED at the top and also check if it says 'endeavoru' or 'evita'.
Hello,
I’ve been following guides to root my phone and put a custom ROM onto it. I had no experience in doing this so I thought I would follow an idiots guide and was stupid enough not to back up the original ROM along with not reading up properly on what I was about to do… (yes you can call me names I shall accept it)
The problem I'm having is after putting the custom ROM which was ViperX3.2.0 The phone just stays stuck on the HTC one Tm with beats audio and keeps resetting it self, anyway i can fix it? or have i bricked it.
I'm a complete noobie cause I've been looking around for the past 3 days and still can't find anything (or something I can understand) :angel:
- I've wiped cache, dalvik cache and battery stats
- I go to recovery and click mount sd card nothing happens mount usb storage nothing happens.
- I don't understand next to nothing, need like android for idiots. :good:
- When phones booting up my computer recognises something but has not drivers and fails (But i had drivers and could transfer stuff too and from)
So if you can help i will love you forever
Many Thanks
RIch
I'm going to quote the instructions on the ViperX page. Have you even followed these steps?
Code:
1. Make sure your that your HBOOT is 1.31 or greater
2. Check if you CID is supported, visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 for updates. Cheers Mike
3. Unlock your bootloader via HTCDev and install a custom recovery.
4. Download the ROM and place it on your virtual SD card.
5. Do a nandroid backup!
6. Extract boot.img from ROM zip and flash it using ‘fastboot flash boot boot.img’.
7. Use 'fastboot erase cache' to avoid boot issues.
8. Go into recovery and install the ROM.
9. Please choose fullwipe if you are asked, highly recommended if you go from one rom from another rom.
10. Reboot the device and enjoy!
Did you flash the boot.img file in fastboot? fastboot flash boot boot.img followed by fastboot erase cache

Just keep trying 'fastboot flash zip (lalala)' until it works.
Afterwards, you need to re-unlock your bootloader with 'fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin'
then reflash boot.img 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'
then 'fastboot erase cache'
then reflash recovery 'fastboot flash recovery (lalalaa.img)'

Whoopsie, did fastboot flash boot boot.img didn't start up so i thought i would check recovery and earse some caches, theres an error for it to load. (a phone laying down with an exclaimation mark) so i can't do a wipe
Reflash the custom recovery
Fastboot flash recovery recover.img
Fastboot erase cache
Anyway to get the recovery back? so i can try another ROM to see if that could possibly fix the problem, just can't get into recovery D: happy my phone turns on lol however no network or can't connect to wifi
by fashing the boot did nothing but crash it more.
so i had to redo what you taught me, thank you again and i'm back to where i said i was

Are there any reasons why I'm not getting signal or WiFi? along with that from the unlock it seem rather slow,
But I guess it's time for me to experiment, now that i know how to fix it if I mess up
Maybe because of this :
When installing the viper you get a question about the custom kernel ....

Just signed up to say thanks Mr Hofs for the help you've posted in this thread in particular but also in many other threads I've been referring to over the last 4 hours or so. I was well on my way to brickage following a screwed up attempt to root my HOX, but thanks to you I'm now up and running again. Admittedly I'm back at square one with a non-rooted handset, but I never would've believed that would be such a happy place to be, plus I feel a tiny bit less of a noob now.

Hey Guy's,
I know this thread is old and many of you might not see this anymore but I'm sure this is where I need to be.
I have a UK Quad Core HOX and rooted fine a while ago.
I placed Cyanogen on for a while and all was running fine but it doesn't have all the tweaks I'd like so looked around for another ROM.
I came across the ViperROM and thought - Great! Exactly what I wanted, checked the reviews - All good, checked my HBoot etc... All seems fine. Went ahead and installed it through CWM (5.8.4.0) like I have done a thousand times before and went and rewrote the boot.img and got a continuous HTC boot loop. Thought hey no harm no fuss and went back into recovery to restore my most recent back-up only to find that they had all gone - My stock recovery my previous tries at other ROMS and most importantly my most recent Backup!!!!
I followed the steps above over and over again, I can re-lock my HOX, reboot into RUU and flash the 3.16.61.6 firmware (and boot img inside zip) and it still bootloop's over and over....... (I can unlock again too)
I've tried adb pushing Stock and custom ROMS to the SD card which says success in windows cmd but says no files on SDcard.
What am I doing wrong?
P.S hboot details are;
Endeveavoru PVT Ship S-ON RL

Would like to add that I would prefer Viper to stock but stock would help for now
Before going for RUU and stuff, try any other roms.
I'd say do this :
Flash TWRP - Better than CWM anyday.
Go to recovery. Mount USB. Copy Viper (or any other) rom to phone.
Reboot to bootloader.
Flash boot.img.
Fastboot erase cache.
Go to recovery.
Clean install ROM.
Reboot and wait for it. First boot takes pretty long sometimes.
There is no better recovery, a recovery is personal. I'm using CWM now for 2 years....never had a problem with that.....
Now the issue.
How to copy it is in the post above, however before you install the rom you need to make a real good full wipe
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage - format cache, data, system
Then install the rom...and ofcourse flash the boot.img from the rom.zip
The option to mount in CWM is under mounts and storage copy the rom.zip over and unmount.
The way i personally follow is :
Flash the boot.img (fastboot, bootloader mode) then enter the recovery and follow the above....make sure you unplug the usb cable BEFORE installing the rom.zip

Hello,
Recently my htc wildfire S crashed and only boots to Hboot mode..
cannot go to recovery and cannot do factory reset.. when i press these options the phone just reboots to hboot mode
the phone can be detected via usb and i do get hboot usb plug detection as well fastboot usb mode..
I have tried hundreds of possibilities to flash but failed..
Have tried the RUU method via computer whereby i get different errors and also tried different RUU but unsuccessful
The last RUU that i had used to root my phone was
RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed
which worked well for one year but crashed after reseting to factory settings
now..
when my bootloader is unlocked i got error 155 image error
when my bootloader is relocked i get error 140 bootloader version error
both ways it stops during verifying for signature
and on the phone it shows main version older.. update failed
have tried to place PM76IMG.zip on sdcard but the phone reads as wrong or no image
(and this goes for different RUU as well)
have tried to use fastboot via cmd commands but get
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
or
FAILED (remote: 43 signature verify fail)
images do load without problem but fail after signature checking
there is no other RUU newer than 2.26
cannot downgrade hboot cause cannot access my phone just hboot mode only
cannot do flash recovery as i have tried many recovery images all failing as well as clockword mode recovery image
PLEASE HELP load the ROM and make the phone usable again
Did you make a Gold card before placing PG76IMG in SD card?

Your recoverys are not flashing as you have relocked your bootloader pal. Try flashing the stock recovery from hboot this should at least have a factory reset option. Failing this, you should try re-unlocking your bootloader and then flashing cwm.
If all of this fails then you will need to gain access to an xtc clip, make the phone s-off and then flash any ruu you want bump this thread if you need anymore help

What errors are you getting when trying to flash cwm via fastboot while the bootloader is unlocked. Be specific please
Also their is no other way to s-off bar the xtc clip. But, once you have s-off trouble shooting bootloader/ruu issues is far easier

Ok while unlocked, take your cwm recovery image and rename it to recovery.img if you have not already.
Then boot into fastboot and use the command
Fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
Hopefully it will boot into the recovery. This is only tempoary, do not reboot until you have wiped everything. Check and see if it boots after full wipes.
If this fails you will need a xtc clip...

tried again all possibilities..
with fastboot boot recovery recovery.img it does download successfully and writes booting.. however after the phone has booted by itself the htc screen shows up (with white background) and directly goes into fastboot menu without other options...
Maybe i am uploading wrong recovery image??
if its loading into bootloader menu that means my phone is soft bricked right?? which can be undone??
my dilemma is that i live in a third world country with no htc service providers or good phone repair shops who would have an xtc clip..

The main issue is that it should still boot into the recovery via fastboot regardless of its working state from what i have read the main nand seems to have some sort of error that it cannot over write so its not letting you boot anything weither that is a fail safe or not i dont know. At this point a xtc clip would be your last hope, but i cannot guarrentee it would work... I have an xtc clip, but i dont want to post it outside of the uk ......

Were you overclocked ? Were you using some sort of memory script ?
I'd say your best option is to have it sent back, smells like a burnt motherboard.

Hi tahaice!.
I just recovered an HTC Wildfire S A510e for a friend with a problem similar to yours!
He entered on HBOOT and wiped & format some partitions: data/factory reset, system, data, sdcard, etc.....
I read quickly your problem and I think that this can help you:
1.- Download the correct RUU from: androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Marvel_MarvelC
For instance, I used RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed for Spain (Device was with last update, my friend was sure).
You can check it on HBOOT:

And when you finish restore: go to Settings/About phone/Software info/More. Base band version must match the file you used (you will not restore radio.img, if not needed).
2.- Run the RUU until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, find the temporary folder it created. (Open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar.) There will be folders with long names (C:\Users\lefe\AppData\Local\Temp\{9739F95A-99D7-43BA-8AB6-E4F02264D361}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B} for instance).
Inside one of them you will find the file rom.zip from RUU. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img, boot.img and system.img. Put it in the location you preffer (C:\Users\lefe\HTC Wildfire S A510e\ADB in the example).
You also need adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll and fastboot.exe. Copy from the folder you found the file rom.zip (or from Android SDK tools if you have installed it).
3.- Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.
As you say, this is not needed in your case because your phone goes directly. Just plug.
4.- Open a command prompt in Windows and navigate to the folder where you unpacked ADB / installed Android SDK tools. Flash the stock images extracted in step 2 above using the following commands (Remember to turn your firewall off):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Example (what I did):
Code:
C:\Users\lefe\HTC Wildfire S A510e\ADB>fastboot flash boot boot.img
sending 'boot' (2870 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.336s]
writing 'boot'...
OKAY [ 1.650s]
finished. total time: 2.994s
C:\Users\lefe\HTC Wildfire S A510e\ADB>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (3494 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.572s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.970s]
finished. total time: 3.554s
C:\Users\lefe\HTC Wildfire S A510e\ADB>fastboot flash system system.img
sending 'system' (259862 KB)...
OKAY [ 31.535s]
writing 'system'...
OKAY [ 64.846s]
finished. total time: 96.393s
5.- Finally, in your phone go to HBOOT menu and make a FACTORY RESET.
If needed, PowerOff device (remove battery for 3 seconds) and Boot the phone into bootloader (hold down volume and press power).
That's all!!.
I hope you get lucky!

Ops!?!?..., Can you detail these errors?.
I'm also reading your message bellow about erasing Userdata...:$, detail also this scenario so we can think about your concret issues.
Keep fighting till you're sure there's nothing to do...
Hello
My sister was thinking she could crack my pattern lock, she didn't now the fone is stuck on the sign in screen (3g / wifi disabled)
Wanted to wipe the phone completely, but my volume up button is broke so i can't confirm it
Booting into fastboot mode and doing a fastboot -w
results in a erasing 'userdata'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
I found something about a 0.77 engineering hboot, but could not find it
So how can i wipe the phone?

Kind regards
1. Boot into fastboot (back + power), and flash a custom recovery (4ext recommended) using "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
2. Boot into recovery, perform a full wipe, copy rom to sdcard, flash it.
Aint there a factory reset option in bootloader? Cant remember on the desire, been a while lol.
