Hi all.
I've just got the unbranded Desire [EUROPE-Poland], after Hero i needd root etc. so did everything that You "say".
After tutorials i've rooted and flashed via (green) recovery a new DJDroid rom.
But it keeps playing boot anim all the time.
Tried few defferent roms, same thing.
Did SD partitioning and a full wipe.
Any idea?
pls, help.
Only thing thay i can do is reflash via generic RUU one on fastboot now. =/

EDIT

already searched the formu - nothing similar didnt found
Have you wiped cache and dalvik cache, and done a data/factory reset ?
Yes, yes, yes
As is said: "Did SD partitioning and a full wipe."
[inc.Cache,Dalvik,EXT,Factory]
Dont know the problem...
Can you put up a logcat for us?
And what method of rooting did you use ?

decompress android sdk (check on google for the sdk package, is quite small), then go inside the "tools" folder (I assume you have already your drivers installed).
then go on command prompt, and
Code:
adb logcat
will show the logcat.
Code:
adb logcat > bootlog.txt
will create the boot log (you won't actually see anything on screen since the output is redirected on the txt file.
You can:
start your phone
type adb logcat
CTRL+C when the phone is booted.
It will automatically stop if a reset occurs.

Silly question, but you did use the right one for your bootloader didn't you ?
How did you wipe your ext partition?
I've had to use my computer as wiping it in recovery didn't work.

If he just partitioned it then this shouldn't matter because it should be blank anyway

Any ideas...?
Looking at the logcat, everything fails to initiate so you could possibly have USB Brick, check out this thread and report back

Done step by step.
No errors while updating.zip
Flashed new rom (DJ...)
Same thing
Any idas what should i do?
log attached - seems to be quailtly the same...
I don't think you have the usb brick as you would have no access to SD card, and the phone would still boot. You would also see qualcomm devices listed when you connect usb.
Have you tried booting without the sim and SD card?

socktug,
Without SIM & SD phone started fine
... but after reinsert abowe its all the same. =/
I can lunch it with SIM only.
So i cant lunch it with SD inserted.
Can You verify what is the problem?
Or how can i?
Maby should i try with goldcard?
if it boots with SIM and no SD then its the SD thats the issue.
You can try to format the SD again and reparition it, if that dont work then it must be a faulty SD card.

But SD with stock ROM works great, with Hero it works also fine.
There was no problems at all...
What tool shoud I use to do repart.SD for Desire?
I recently rooted my phone via unrevoked3 and unrevokedforever and tried to flash a custom splash screen as instructed by their website under the unrevokedforever info page (I would post the link, but as a new user I cannot :/ )
After placing the .zip on the root of my sd card and booting it in hboot, the phone proceeds to attempt to load the file but continues to say the following:
"Loading... [insert file name here]
No image!"
or
"Loading... [insert file name here]
No image or wrong image!"
I'm at a loss as to why this might continue to happen. I assume its not the location of the file, otherwise the bootloader probably wouldn't have recognized it. I'm simply confused as to why it won't recognize any images.
For further help, I've attatched the .zip I'm attempting to use.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Try redownloading the zip and make sure it's named correctly
Edit: typo and thanked you on accident lol
Just gave it a try, and still no luck... really confused at this point. :/

Make sure your SD Card is formatted to FAT32
Ah, that's interesting! Looks like my sd card is coming up as MS-DOS (FAT16).
Now, I know that formatting it would delete all the files on the card, but if I copy them onto my computer, reformat the drive, and then put everything back exactly the way it was, would that have any effect on my phone whatsoever?
Nope I do it all the time. Just put the on the comp somewhere format then put them back... Just dont boot the phone in between... Then things may get wonky
Just formatted the sd card with no issues, time to see if it will actually let me use a new splash screen... will update once I run hboot.
[UPDATE: Great success! I guess the sd card simply had to be reformatted to put in a new splash screen. Thanks everyone!]
I noticed that I had a ton of garbage on my SD card so I used the menu on the phone to erase it. It wasn't working after the erase so I plugged it into my PC. It said I needed to format the card. I formatted it as FAT32. Now my phone will boot for about 5 seconds and then reboots.
Any ideas as to what I broke?

First, try booting phone without SD card to verify the problem only happens when the SD card is inserted.
Second, I'd use SD Formatter to format the card properly. Windows doesn't always do it correctly on its own. Default settings are fine.

Had the same problem yesterday. Had to flash back to stock using LG flash tool. Not saying it's the best method but so far it fixed my issue.
I just had the same problem.
I'm now doing the unbricking flash procedure.

Has anyone else found other options? Mine boot loops regardless what SD card or even no SD card is in it. I guess I am going to have to unbrick flash, but not really sure where to start that process.

Follow the guide on the sticky, I had a lot of problems doing, tried 2 different computers but my phone is back.
Same thing happened to me. If you wipe the sd card from the phone you will most likely have to unbrick it.

So I never got the 4.3 OTA BUT I did install the UCUEMJB Bootloader, but not the modem to use the 4.3 Dandroid Rom, about all month before that I was happily on CM11, and loved it. I try Dandroid because I hate Touchwiz so much, but thought this might cure my want to switch ROMs all the time.
I tried to port the Moto X 4.2.2 Rom, and decided to flash it. The phone came on once with the Samsung logo, Went off, and usually it would vibrate and vibrate meaning something is wrong, this time it just went off and didn't vibrate at all.
It is hard bricked from my understanding, but I have no way of getting a JTAG Done, and I'm waiting on a JIG I ordered, but this is becoming too long without a phone. I bought 3 100K Ohm resistors, and tried the method here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=889128 and I can't seem to get it to work.
I tried the USB Debrick img for the JB Bootloader, but that didn't work neither. The battery is good, and works and everything, Just trying to rule out everything so many you can help me a little better.
Does anyone have any idea what to do? I can't afford a Riff box neither.. if I can get it fixed I'll just stick with one Rom this time, lol.
is there any way to JTAG without the Riff Box, or anything I can do? I'm willing to try anything at my power.
Thanks in Advance.

Thanks for the reply!
I have been looking at that all morning, so even if I flashed the Moto X Rom that was ported, I shouldn't need JTAG?
Also, let me get this straight.. I use WinDiskImager to put the img file on the SD card, via my SD card reader, and then Pull the battery, put in the SD card, put in the battery, and turn on the phone? because I've tried that and it doesn't work at all for me.. unless I'm missing something here, I'd love to know!
You are using a 16GB or larger card right?
You aren't trying to get the phone to power on just yet. Only trying to get to recovery mode so you can flash stock 4.3 stuff and get going again.
With that said...
It appears it is only about 70 percent successful. I have had reports from folks that said they had to write the .Img file several times in a row in their SD card slot in the computer to get it to work.
You may have to get a debrick file from someone running the same rom you were trying to flash.

When you plug your phone into your PC, do you get a box that pops up and reads something like "can't load drivers QHSUSB DLOAD"?? If so, this is what I did. I followed the instructions in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2581166
I used the AT&T image from this thread (I was on Paranoid Android 4.3, FYI):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2345860
Worked just fine.
Now, the link in the post above me mentions Odin'ing back to 4.1 so you don't have to boot from your SD card anymore. I didn't do that. When mine booted, it booted into Recovery and I flashed my Paranoid Android 4.3 ROM and GApps. That worked fine and all my data was intact, but yeah, it meant That I'd have to boot from SD card every time. To get past that, I plugged my phone in, copied the AT&T .img file from my PC (note, I copied...I didn't image it. When you image it, it pulls files from the .img file and writes a partition containing them. You don't want to do that in this case) to a random internal SD card file folder on my phone. I had to do it that way cause that AT&T .img was too big to fit on my SD card imaged with the debrick boot files. I then I opened my file manager app on my phone and moved the .img file to the /SDCARD folder. From there I used the terminal emulator and followed the instructions from the link I posted first, typing
su
dd if=/sdcard/debrick.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0
Took my SD card out. Restarted. It booted into recovery again, I flashed my PA 4.3 ROM and at that point I was able to boot without the SD card and didn't have to Odin back to an older version. Finally, I used the SD formatter here:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/
And formatted my SD card back to allow full usage. Copied all my old files and pics back on it and I was straight!

Its an 8GB Sandisk D: Is there a difference in the way it performs? I'm flat broke atm, but if someone can point me in direction of a cheap 16GB or bigger card, I'll go after it for sure.

is your SD card bigger than 8GB? That's what I have, and I'll try all of this and report back
My phone doesn't turn on at all, So You mean to copy the IMG file to the SD Card? or the files from the IMG File to the SD card? I am not able to get into any file managers and ADB can't read my phone at all :/
First off, you need a card larger than 8gb. It has to be at least 16gb. Mine was 32gb.
Second, to get it to turn on at all, you need to use the disk imager listed in the thread I posted. WinDiskManager or whatever it's called. Grab the AT&T .img file from the second link (that's the one that worked for me...not sure it will for you) and save it somewhere on your PC. Open the disk imager and choose the AT&T .img file, then use the drop down and select your SD card (whatever letter your PC assigned it) and finally, click "write". That will image the files contained in the .img file to your SD card and partition it as bootable. Put the SD card in your phone, turn it on, and it should turn on to recovery at least. Once we get there, we can tackle moving the .img file to where it needs to be on your phone so you don't have to boot from the SD card anymore.
Yes exactly it is mandatory that your card MUST be 16 gb or bigger. What we are doing is mimicking the internal storage on the phone and tricking the phone into booting into recovery to fix what we messed up. Walmart has fairly cheap SD cards. They're cheaper than $50 to get a jtag and faster too.

Oh okay I get it now. Thanks for the explanation. I'll be on the look out for a 16GB.
Oh okay I get it now. Thanks for the explanation. I'll be on the look out for a 16GB. I found some cheap on Ebay for $10 when I get paid I'll get one! (Living check to check... lol) I also went ahead and bought a jig for $1.89, I'm asking around if any of my friends have an extra 16GB SD, most likely not though. Thanks for the replies!
BTW, My phone is like. Dead. Doesnt even power on or anything, but I do get the QHSUSB DLOAD thing, and if I plug it in without a battery I get a Red LED indicator, is that how you guys have explained previous phone states?
I never had it plugged in without the battery, but yes, when I plugged it into my PC, I got what you're getting. We should be able to get you back in business. Hurry up and get an SD card. Hell, go buy one, use it, then return it.

Its a Class 10 Samsung 16GB Micro SD card, Currently keep trying to write the Debrick-SGH-i747U-CUEMJB3.img, and trying it out, still not working. Is that the OTA Bootloader? JB3? Or just JB? Or maybe its the J2 Bootloader I have with a JB3 Modem... forgive me lol.
Dead phone still.. I think I wanna cry lol
Edit:
In addition this is what I'm getting..
qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008 (COM4)
No idea what that means, but it shows up in Device Manager.
I've been trying and trying to flash this img and get it to come on, still not working
Did you image the SD card with this program?:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
After you image it, check your SD card in Windows Explorer and verify there are files on it. There should be quite a few.
If you did and the image you tried to flash didn't work, did you try the AT&T image that I linked to in my first post? This one?

Yes...that's correct. My SD card had numerous files in a folder named "Image", so it seems you're doing that portion correctly.
Did you try the AT&T image that I linked to? That one was named different from the one you referred to in your previous post.
Just to cover your bases, try both AT&T images that were linked to in this thread. If it's still not working...don't know what to tell you.

No tricks to it? I even tried using dd in linux, still nothing. If all fails I hope the jig works that I ordered. I was porting that Moto X rom from a Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 Base, but had swapped out mostly permissions and framework, I didn't touch the boot.img or anything like that.. I did kind of touch up on the updater-script, but still I don't see how that'd brick it, usually it'd give me a status7 or something if it didnt work, or even vibrate, turn on, then vibrate twice and restart, till I'd put it back into recovery, but with that 4.3 Rom I was throwing root issues, and every time I re-flashed it, I had to re isntall CWM
Yeah, just uncovered a new chapter of the story.. lol Hopefully we can work with this at all.
I tried to downgrade to a 4.2.2 Version from 4.3, and had a 4.3 Bootloader,
before all of this I was happily on the CM11 Rom, and should have stuck with it.. Curiosity killed the kitkat.
