[Q] Tried to Unroot my phone, now stuck at white HTC screen.

Tried to unroot my HTC EVO now its stuck at htc screen. Even if i go into recovery mode it will just get stuck at screen. Im getting frustrated and i dont have warranty on phone. is the phone pretty much done for??

Try running an official RUU to unroot or if you can get into bootloader, you can download a stock PC36IMG file and load it that way.
Links found in this post

i did the pc36 file. it updated my phone, but still stuck at the evo screen. i go to press recovery then goes straight back to htc screen

What PC36IMG file did you use? The one for build 3.70?
The links I posted are for RUUs which are exe files. Connect the phone to the comp and run the RUU.exe file and it should do its thing if the phone can be recognized.

thanks ill try when i get my windows computer running. do you think my phone is bricked??

I'll be honest and say...I'm not an expert and I don't really know if your phone really is bricked or not but I sure hope it isn't! I've seen many threads where people post situations similar to yours and other XDA users say...as long as you can get into bootloader, then no it is not bricked. Just have to find a way to get a stock ROM loaded back on your phone and generally that's through running an RUU.

ok so just install RUU and let it do itz job? just wanna get the s-on somehow so i can take to sprint store.

so im trying to flash it to get the s-on right, but when i click on fastboot it says bootloader then when i press it it goes back to fAstboot. any ideas??

i cant get into bootloader!!

Can you try to download this PC36IMG file HERE. Says you need NAND unlock which you have, hopefully it can installed the rooted ROM with ClockworkMOD recovery, and once that's working try to unroot again. Otherwise...sorry, I'm not sure what else to tell you.
EDIT: How did you install the previous PC36IMG? When you hold VOL DOWN and POWER, do you get to the screen with the Android on skateboards at the bottom?

ok im gonna try it again. I just dont understand when i press fastboot then bootloader why it doesnt go to the black screen. so i can get on my sd card, thats what im not getting... so frustrating!!!

Ok, do you have a microSD card reader of some kind? As long as you can get the file onto the SDcard and once you restart holding VOL DOWN and POWER, it should automatically try to look for the PC36IMG.zip file if you wait for a quick minute or so.

yeah i do. slow computer its still downloading. the first time i did this. it updated and everything. It says do you want to reebot now i said yes. Comes back on and loads to HTC evo 4g screen and just stays there. No sprint boot up or nothing. I might have to use that RUU file if i find someone with a windows computer. I tried that RUU thing at home and it just said USB connection error. oh yeah if i press recovery it just goes to htc screen and thats it!!!

so i updated it. rebooted to htc evo 4g screen and stays there

try this and see if its your same issue forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831915&highlight=bricked
and do a search in development with bricked as the header....
I think if you can get the zip on your sd card you should be ok. Not quite sure by what I have read if you have actually done that part as of yet

Good Luck

i did the RUU thing. updated, but phone still goes to htc evo 4g white screen and nothgin more

[Q] HELP: Flashing with S-ON

Hello
First off: I'm not an D Inc user myself (i'm an x10) but I am trying to fix a friends verizon dInc
Second: I have tried searching for hours(plus yesterday) and have not come up with a solution.
My problem: The phone was in a bootloop that was stuck in the HTC Incredible splash screen.
Research/Tried Methods:
- I have tried hboot: it is version .92 and radio is 2.0.15 S-ON
- I have used doug piston's original BP31IMG stock rom on hboot
- Have tried RUU but won't recognize the device at all because i can't really turn the phone on
- Have tried to flash CWM recovery 2.5 and 3.0 but its just stuck on "Checking BP31IMG.zip" using hboot and still nada ( Could i be using the wrong files? )
-hboot problem: Phone finds the BP31IMG.zip checks, parses, and asks me to "Update" --> i press vol+ to yes...
I then see a blue dot on [1]Bootloader then quickly after BLACKSCREEN
The phone doesnt boot after that. I've tried it multiple times but to no avail.
Can anyone please point me to the proper steps.
Thank you very much!

From past experience, I know that you can use the RUU in hboot. If you haven't yet, give that a whirl.

just attempted your pointer
But now that i boot into hboot, the setup from where it left off is continuing.
EXCEPT: Radio_V2 FAILED...this doesn't sound good but scared to stop the setup
EDIT: Said Partition Update Failed

Perhaps try pulling the battery and retrying. After just throwing my own phone into hboot, I realized that it was actually fastboot that I meant to say works (first option in hboot). But if not that, I'd say something is fried. Did your friend mess up a radio update because thats a sure way to brick a phone.
Edit: After a little googling, here is something a person with a desire said fixed it for them.

That won't work fastboot option only allow you to reboot on the Dinc...Make sure that the Pb31Img is @176mb and it should ask you to update after it reads the file

yup im sure its @176MB from doug pistons site
it did ask me to update..everything worked except radio_v2 which failed
rendering the whole update a fail
and now it wont even boot hboot :'(

HELP!!!!

I think my Dinc is soft bricked. Whenever I turn it on it stays in boot screen and starts over every minute or so. unrEVOked rooted with S-OFF. ROM is SkyRaiders 4.0 (which I just tryed to flash over my 3.5 to work around this brick but it didnt work). Anyone have any idea's on if it is bricked or not? Please help, I don't want to go by a iFAIL. But I probably will switch to Dinc 2

can you get into recovery by way of hboot?

Yes it seems to have corrected itself. I'm going to see what the problem was.

[Q] 4gEvo Bootloop

ok i have a box full of evos left over, my 3d i just broke the screen so i was gonna use a extra but there stuck in bootloops theis one has
hboot 2.16.0001
supersonic evt2-3 shis-on
radio 2.15.00.05.02
mar 08 2011
its stuck in loop[ and i cant get to recovery, i can go to the bootloader but nothing past that either way... is there a update.zip i can use or something??? its not rooted and dont remember what this one was in the box for but i do know a rom was tryed to be installed with s-on

Doesn't sound very good.
If it doesn't bootloop inside the bootloader, the best you can do is to download and put this file on the root of your SD card, then try to install it through the bootloader to see if it fixes the problem. If not, there is not very much you can do to solve a bootloop with the phone S-ON.

You can use htcdev.com to unlock the bootloader but you need hboot 2.18 and you have to select all other supported models on the htcdev tool as your device
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA

ok then i didnt do the htc unlock, well i tried the img u said and when it started the update it failed the radio, the first one, but finish the rest fine but said update failed.... i think maybe batterys low so im charging it now to try again, but i have a few bricked evos if anyone wants to see if they can unbrick em'
well i did the update about six times and differnt everytime, but the last time i had no errors an all complete but when it turns off to reboot it never comes on..... once i pull the battery and reinstall the battery if i turn the phone one it just bootloops still. anytime in a menu it says reboot divice and i do hit the button the divice never comes back on??? ivew tryed a few batterys, could this still be the problem?

well i got two bricked evo now if anyone wants them i can send the motherboard out

[Q] Phone Freezing At Droid Eye And AThen Bootloops

So i was running a miui rom and did a clean wipe to try and a new rom. I couldn't get past the boot screen of the rom so i figured it was just a bad download. so i went and unrooted the phone. i have Hboot .92 thew radio is 2.15.10.07.07. i have the phone to s-on. i downloaded and installed the stock verizon gingerbread rom by renaming it to th P whatever lol. the reboots gets to the incredible screen then goes the htc quetly brilliant screen then it does the droid sound and i get the red snapdragon logos. but when it get's to the droid eye after it circle goes back and forth once then freezes on the second one. it sits there for like 3 or 4 minutes and then it just reboots to the droid sound and snapdrogon screen then the droid eye and stops and just keeps repeating this. i am hoping someone on might have a cure for this. the only thing i can get into iss hboot. hoping it's not fried. thanks for your time. and sorry for the long post, just trying to be very detailed to get the right help.

Have you tried doing a factory reset from hboot, and then reflashing the ruu (PB31IMG.zip file) thru hboot again. Also why did you go s-on, just makes it way harder to reroot or fix issues like these? The only reason anyone should ever go s-on is if you need to return it to verizon under warranty.

the reason for s-on is because i was selling it and the new owner just wanted it stock. they know nothing about rooting or any of this kinda stuff. i do believe i tried the factory reset but i will give it a go again.

so i believe i have found the problem. and doing some research it's my own fault. i am still on the .07.07 radio baseband and i found out that i should have downgraded before getting s-on. now i don't know if i can fix this problem or did i just ruin my phone. hoping for some good news. thanks

Im pretty sure you have to downgrade the radio to get s-on. As in it wont work to get you s-on if your not on the right radio. Are you sure you didnt downgrade and doing the ruu just upgraded it again?
I would try doing the latest ruu.exe with a pc, instead of PB31IMG.zip.

i would love to but the pc will not read the phone because it just boot loops.

Try flashing the PB31IMG.zip ruu with fastboot. androidforums.com/incredible-all-things-root/487280-easier-way-flash-pb31img-files.html

do you happen to have a workable link for the adb and fastboot. the link on android forums is through megauploiad and is not a workable link.

Have you installed the phone drivers on your pc?

i have installed everything that i can to try and get this phone working. hboot comes comes up on the phone just fine and i can get to fastboot on the phone. when i go to recovery from fastboot it goes to the green triangle then it turns red. i do the volume and power to get to recovery but when it comes up i get a bunch of error messages. and am at a lost with this. all i know is i don't think it is bricked because i can get to hboot. when i try to install another pB file from hboot it either does not do anything or it tells me it failed because it was an older version. i am pretty sure it is a software problem i just can't figure it out.
