Can anybody help me??
sorry for bad english ! thank you!!

Try putting the pb99.img file on the root of yer sd card and load yer bootloader eh. Yer phone should automatically start updating it then yer off.
To extract the pb99 you need to run the ruu then on yer pc in the run/search bar in the start menu type %temp%. Find the rom zip file and paste it to your sd card then rename it to pb99.img. you'll need to use a card reader or another micro sd phone as at the moment you're usb bricked.

You may as well just run the ruu. It takes next to no time to root again.

thanks!
Thank you!!!! Solved !!!

Did you do it with the pb99.img? Just want to know for others with the same issue. Also, you should change the title of the thread ending it with "SOLVED! " so others can see it's sorted.

Yes, i did pb99.img
Thank you.
Oh !! for ppl who can not install with pb99.img i will suggest rename "rom.zip" as "pb99img.zip" and put it into root folder.
Go to Hboot(Power+Back) and it will automatically start installing your new original firmware (during installing be patien it took little time).
Thank you Pwraggcan.

Big time unrooting problems

Hi, Last night i rooted the phone, partitioned the sd card, installed radio .08 and so on.
Rom were working fine but i just wanted unroot cuz of the warranty issue. Heres to the problem. When i connect the phone it all looks fine. The computer finds it and i can mount the sd card and so on. But when i try to boot with the official ruu it just loses the connection to the computer and stops with the "black" "htc" logo on the screen.
Here's what i've tried: Reformated my SD card with fat32, nandroid back to stock rom (the one you get directly after rooting) and i've tried degrading my radio image to the one .04. have also reinstalled htc sync twice and get same problem...is the phone bricked in any way? im pretty noobish at this so it was foolish of me to try it on my own i know.
I can still flash roms i looks like, just not go back to unrooted
I've done the unrooting process before and it worked like a charm. why not now?
the ROm was Leedroid 1.4 if it helps
Pop onto the #modaco irc channel on chat.freenote.net
This sounds sortable.
Sounds like its just a matter of flashing the stock rom directly from the SD card....Feel free to pm me whilst in the channel
Have you try to boot your phone into Hboot/Fastboot before you execute the RUU?
After you have run the RUU file and it asks you to connect the phone, go to your windows temp folder (start->run->%temp%)
Sort folders by date and open the most recent, inside there you will see a file called rom.zip (about 120 megs) copy that to your SD card and rename it to PB99IMG.zip.
Turn the phone off and reboot holding the vol down key, enter recovery and it should scan the SD card and offer to flash the PB99IMG.zip.
Job done!!
This will also downgrade the radio images, so beware it takes a couple of boots.
I unrooted today and had the same problem, its a simple solution. When you run it the first time it gets stuck on the black screen, dont do anything with the phone, leave it connected, exit the ruu, then run it again and it'll work
I had something like this too. Just close flashing software in windows when it says connection error, unplug usb, plug it back and start firmware flash in windows again.
edit:i was too late.. lol
edit edit: i did unplug, but looks like its not needed
My solution is more elegant though

Bootloader working but can't load recovery mode to restore ROM

Hi all,
Hope someone can help, I have a desire HD that has some issues.
Long story short the phone was acting up and was flashed with a non official ROM. It was working originally but after about a week it started acting up, with apps force closing, phone crashing altogether etc.
I am trying to get the phone back to a state that Vodafone in Australia will be able to warranty the phone in.
The current situation is that when the phone turns on, it'll load straight to the bootloader/hboot. Recovery mode does not work - it dumps you in to fastboot menu and fails to load.
System restore from boot menu does not work either, and there is no rom at all so USB debugging is a no go, and there appears to be no way to flash the ROM.
Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Use adb / fastboot to push a new recovery to the phone (I hope you left USB debugging enabled).

Sadly no USB debugging doesn't seem to work. Makes the sound that it connects to the computer and that bootloader states its connected by usb however it doesn't seem to phone is connected. Any other ideas?

How did you check to see if adb shell can see the device?
Run an pb98.img from the bootlaoder

adb get-state

But this does depend on you having previously ticked USB Debugging option before you had all these problems (no way to check now without being able to boot the phone).
If this fails you may have to try the previous suggestion of putting a PD98IMG on your sdcard then going into fastboot on the phone.

Currently there is no Rom on the Phone. Just put PD98IMG.zip on the SD card which seems to be updating. Does it normally take a while to Update all the Sections?
Can take anything from 5 to 20+ minutes.
Seems to be taking ages to even get past [1]. Is that normal? Hasn't done anything. It says "Updating" yet I'm still yet to see it get past "[1] BOOTLOADER"
Just to confirm...
1. Turn phone off
2. Put PD98IMG file onto ROOT of sd card
3. Use vol- and power button to get to Fastboot
4. Scroll and select Bootloader (HBOOT)
(might automatically do last step when you boot phone)
Phone will show a message to say it is looking for the file then unpack it and install.

Confirmed dude. Doesn't seem to be doing much though. It has been stuck on "updating BOOTLOADER". It has trying to update it for more then 30mins now
It has a big list of 12 things it wants to update however it hasn't moved past the first file "BOOTLOADER" in over 30mins.
Did you confirm the MD5HASH of the file before putting it on the card?
Could you put a link to where you got the file from please?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
Thank you.
Are you still connected to the PC? If so disconnect and try again.
Did you confirm the MD5HASH?
Have you got another SD card you can try? If not, reformat the current one and put the PD98IMG file on it again and try again.
The Device fails to even turn on now dude. Thanks anyway man
!!!???!!!
Damn. Do you just get the orange flashing light when you try to turn the phone on?
Take out SD Card and try.
If nothing works the bright side is you can send it to HTC and say "I woke up, turned it on and it's dead". Chances are they'll never be able to tell how it happened.
Many people did this when the Clockwork recovery bug bricked loads of phones.
Sorry but stay positive. Always a sliver lining.
Thank you
thanks for your great guidance to get back to recovery. I followed your tips and made it.
thanks a lot once again.

HTC Desire Stuck on HTC logo - Recovery not Working - NOT SOLVED!!

Not sure what happened, but my Desire won't get past the logo boot screen any longer, and RECOVERY mode in HBOOT just reboots the phone (regardless whether the SD card is installed or not). I can get into FASTBOOT however. I tried communicating with the Desire via adb console on my Windows XP system (after ensuring that I have the latest version of HTC Sync installed). "adb" commands do not recognize the phone (error: device not found). "Fastboot" commands do recognize the phone. (The command "fastboot devices", gives me this in return: SH09ER801629). So I'm not sure if my USB drivers are okay with adb, but the fastboot success seems to suggest so. (Also, "MyHTC" shows up under "Android Devices" in Device Manager).
The phone was rooted with ClockWork Mod using UnRevoked, and had Teppic stock Froy v.2.10.405.2 initd as the OS. Originally, it had TELUS-branded Eclair. I've downloaded the TELUS Froyo RUU.exe, but don't know how to install it on the phone, if I can't access RECOVERY mode or adb console. I don't think I ever set up a Gold Card, to my recollection. Also, I've been out of the smartphone scene for 6 months, and did no mods, no flashes, no program installs to my phone in that time. So it's a mystery as to why this is happening. But the phone had been acting up lately, rebooting by itself during a call every so often.

if i'm not mistaken you can run the ruu and it should see the device if connected to pc with fastboot loaded.
as for trying to get back without losing data i'm new to all this so no idea
if you had run ruu on the phone and it was wrong type (i.e gsm ruu on cdma phone or other way round) then that explains the lack of capability.
Thanks for the tip. I ran the Froyo TELUS RUU.exe (should be the right type, as I have a Telus phone). It wouldn't work (in both main HBOOT screen and FASTBOOT screen). Gave me an "error 170". It could not connect to the phone, despite that I'm on Windows XP, that it says "Android Bootloader Interface" in Windows Device Manager, that it says "HBOOT USB PLUG" on the HBOOT screen when connected via USB, and that I am able to issue FASTBOOT commands from the PC. But I can't issue adb commands, so it appears I can only "partially" communicate with the phone from the PC.
Should I try CLEAR STORAGE, or could that fully brick my phone?
On the HBOOT screen, these are the status messages that load:
Loading...[PB99DIAG.zip]
No Image!
Loading...[PB99DIAG.nbh]
No Image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.zip]
No Image!
Loading...[PB99DIMG.nbh]
No Image or wrong image!

USB Brick
For me, it sounds like a typical usb brick :/ I hope you still have rooted ROM. Search through this forum for unbricking guide.
Put the ROM.zip from the RUU on your SDCard but name it PB99IMG.zip and then boot with volume down again to enter HBOOT, it should give you the option to flash your phone back to factory default then.

Thanks! I just tried that on the advice of another poster on another forum (before reading your reply), and that's the one and only thing that worked!
Especially when, after the RUU.exe wouldn't install, RECOVERY mode wouldn't work, nor adb, nor HTC Sync. Yes, I've lost my root access, but small consideration, considering I haven't lost my $500 investment! I'm sticking with stock now, as I'd rather not risk having a brick in the future.
As for what went wrong, I can't say for sure. But considering it took months after I had installed a ROM or otherwise modified the phone for problems to show up, I'm guessing it was probably the overclocking heating the chips. Which led to eventual random reboots during phone calls, and the eventual freezing of the boot screen, and subsequent inability of HBOOT to load PB99IMG.ZIP.
xda rocks, thanks to you and all those who took the time to reply.
sorry for delayed responce. I'm sure you had already found a solution by now but in the off chance you didn't.
you have to load fastboot not hboot.
from a power off state hold back button and power on phone. this will load fastboot and ruu will find device when run.

Fastboot will only work in Fastboot. ADB will only work when phone is booted and USB Debugging is on.
I don't know that as fact, I only know it from personal experience.
Use Fastboot to flash a new ROM, or at least a new recovery image. If you can get into Fastboot, you 'should' be able to fix your phone.

+1 There is a good guide to fastboot commands on the android wiki:
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Fastboot
Should be a case of wiping system, data, cache, then flashing recovery image. Then boot into that and restore a backup or flash a rom.

can u plz help me frm with post u solved ur probs....i m stuck too
1st Post, got my htc desire this morning and after researching for a long time already knew i wanted to root my device.I followed the instructions on this site.[HOWTO] Root Your Desire In 1 Click With UnrEVOked! *UPDATED 20/7* - xda-developers I used unrevoked3, and rooted the device. no trouble Ive backed up the device with titanium backup. Placed cyanogen onto the 4gb sd card which came with the phone.Power off the device. Rebooted whilst holding the volume down button. Got the options up. Navigated to recovery and selected it with the power button. The screen goes blank. The o2 screen comes up saying welcome and thats it, it freezes. I have to pull the battery out of the back in order to reset the device and then it starts up perfectly normal. Tried accessing recovery mode using the clockworkmod but i get the same result.All of the points on the link above were followed. Im pretty much right at the bottom! still researching the net for the answer but im now in need of additional
Does your phone get hot and overheated during the htc logo? It did so to me and it turned out to that my CPU had melted and overheated. Take it to your retailer and they will fix it for free because it's not your fault, it's the phone that overheated.
Try this:
-download this with ur pc and rename it a PB99IMG.zip (not PB99IMG.zip.zip ok?)
-then put it on the root of ur sdcard (not in some folder) through an sd card reader
-ensure the battery is charged much than 30%..better more
-with the phone off (remove battery and put again) press and HOLD the volume down key and press (still holding the volume down key) and hold the power button..hold both and wait to enter in the hboot
-there wait a bit, and it will ask to u if u want apply the update, select yes with the volume keys and confirm with power button

[Q] phone bricked? htc incredible

ok so heres the story, its kinda long so i might include cliff notes at bottom.
i have an htc incredible, verizon branded. i was trying to flash it over to boost for my son to use, he has one of those crappy sanyo phones. i did all the reading of the "donor" phone and even installed the NV465,466,1192,1194 files onto the incredible. i was at the stage of changing the meid to the one from the donor phone. it wouldnt take the meid and i went to get up from my chair to take a break. when i stood up the phone fell and unpluged from the usb cable and hit the floor, battery came out. well when i went to plug in the phone in again i couldnt/cant get past the "htc incredible" white screen. it seems to be stuck in an endless cycle, but if i hold the power and optical center key i can get to the boot menu. nothing in the boot menu works. i have tried everything fastboot, bootloader, reboot, reboot bootloader, hboot, recovery, clear storage, simlock, factory reset and even plugging the usb cable in does nothing. i can see the phone in my devise drivers but can not get anything to load via usb. i have tried ruu, nothing special rom(dont know that it would work since its not rooted) on sd card and nothing seems to be working. is there anything i can do? or did i just make a brick?

use the PB31IMG Method without turning s=on, ( i had stock radio and still have 7.28 )
1) download that PB31IMG.zip and drop it on the root of your sd card ( it has to be named ( PB31IMG.zip ) so make use you have file extensions showing on your PC.
2) boot to hboot and and let see the file and install it
3) used unrevoked ( remove sd card ) to aquire root again.

ok, so lets go back to the original method we talked about.
The only way to brick your phone is during flashing a radio, and something goes wrong. which i am hoping you have not done?
Back to pulling the usb cable out, and putting the SD card in and booting to hboot
pushing the down button from the first screen shot, will take you to another screen, where it will pause and then should look something like the second screenshot where it is checking the files, which will then give an opt to install.
( you can toggle the power button to get to the correct screen in first screenshot

try toggling the power button and getting to the hboot screen, then pushing the down volume key, wait a few seconds ( i assume you still have the renamed file PB31IMG..zip on the root of the SD card ? )

[Q] Phone Stuck at SPL Screen

Hi
Today I tried to install Android Cm7 on it from following procedure
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566955
I copied RHODIMG.nbh and CM7***.zip file on the root of the SD and restarted with volume down key which installed successfully but now Im having a black screen after every restart.
Currently the device starts with HTC screen but then goes black. I can also get into boot loader mode by restarting with volume key down but now it does not detect any RHODIMG.nbh file even if its in root of the SD card. Now I cant even install back Energy rom.
Before energy rom, I did installed Hard SPL successfully and its still there too.
Please help
OKay, so I have tried everything I could and I think the boot loader is corrupted?
I tried to load different RHODIMG.NBH files from the root of the SD card, Energy, Deepshining and then Stock ROM too but for all the boot loader says 'No Image File'
Can anybody please guide me here??
Try using the USB installer. So long as you can get to the bootloader screen, you can flash via USB or SD. If SD isn't working, try USB.

Yes, I just did it, I installed WMDC as I was on Win7, when I went in bootloader and connected the phone via USB it was detected as HTC USB Hub, then I Flashed the Energy ROM and its working fine now.
Strange dont know why it was not detected the .nbh file in the sd card..!!
Though for a moment I thought I bricked my mobile but I still want to take another chance to install Android in it
Glad to hear you're back up and running.
