[Q] Help, possible softbrick - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
yesterday my desire GSM running CM7.0 (running for many weeks/months) experienced some problems not showing some menu's, empty, no icons etc. So i rebooted, and.. got stuck on HTC/white bootscreen. After this I did the following:
- mount sd to pc, clear catch, factory reset in CWRM.
- put back a backup of android 2.2 (Defrost) works fine!
(but i want to go back to CM7).
- Trough RomManager tried to install CM7 --> stuck at boot
- In CWRM tried to install CM7 --> stuck at boot
- Wipe Davik, system, cach everyting, then installed CM7 --> stuck
- Installed android 2.2 rom --> works
- Installed android 2.3 rom --> stuck
Am I missing something stupid here? Forgot to do something?
Thanks in advance for all your help

(maybe something else:
When i install Rom of defrost this is the log:
Installing update
formatting cache
deleting files
coping files
formatting system
copying files
formatting boot
writting boot
installation complete
when i install CM7 it only tells me:
installing update
installation complete
of course formatting data and cache i did manually, but not formatting boot and system... but if i format boot, and something goes wrong starting up.. will this brick my phone? I Guess yes)

Hello.
Don't try anything else that ain't recommended. It is very hard to brick the phone, but if you bricked it, then he is gone.
Anyway I see that your Radio is not up-to-date. Usualy CM7 recommends any radio that is 2.2+ compatible. It will do you no harm if you try to upgrade your Radio to 5.17.05.08 (it's not the latest but the one before it; most people agreed this one performs better than the latest one, but this differes from phone to phone, also region, sim etc.).
How to flash Radio (CWM Recovery):
Code:
1. Go into recovery
2. Choose install zip from sd
3. Choose zip from sd
4. Confirm
5. Reboot
6. The phone will then reboot a couple of times. This is normal. Do not touch or move the phone during the process.
OR if you are used to fastboot commands:
Code:
fastboot flash radio c:\radio.img
After this Wipe everything again (User Data, Cache, Dalvik-Cache) and install CM7 again.
Hope this helps you.

I doubt it's radio, it would boot just fine even with old radio, do you have any partitions on SD?

Thanks for you reply's.
I managed to fix it, how ... and why everyting happend is not clear to me
I thought about the radio too since there are always warnings everywhere about having the correct one, but since i have no real clue what it precisely does, and my previous CM7.0.0 worked fine I had doubts.
I installed android 2.2 for the night (I needed a alarm in the morning) that worked fine. But next day when I tried to put on CM7 It failed (again). But now going back to android 2.2 failed too! And I got error clearing the extra partition (I didn't receive those before!) I though I wait to fix the ext3 partition till I managed to get CM7 working again.
Thanks you your tip, I paid more attention to the ext partition and got Gparted installed and recreated the partition. Now everything went smooth again, and got CM7 installed! Thanks!
(still couple of questions left:
- how can a rom force the phone on restart to suddenly go into a bootloop
- was this the whole-time related to the extra partition?
- why could Linux access the ext partition when I backedup my data trough CWRM, and later when CW gave me error, Linux did too!?
- Is this common error, or is this something new?
)

[Q] HTC Desire - S-OFF/Root after ROM install with freezing!!!

Hi All,
I hope somebody can help me in case of following issue.
After some months I decided I try to install "not original ROM" to the phone.
After I read many instructions I started S-Off (Software: Alpharevx) root (Software: Unrevoked) - I didn't have any special problem with them based on the instructions.
After that I see following in Hboot menu of the phone:
"BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
MICROP-051d
TOUCHPANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
AUG 10 2010, 17:52:18"
I chose more ROMs to decide which is the best for me. I installed the first one, the phone restarted and it was frozen at the "HTC logo" (with white screen).
I thought the ROM is wrong, so I tried all, but I met same problem.
One time the system (android) loaded and started, but after the first restart it was also frozen at the "HTC logo". I installed back the original ROM, and it works well.
My questions: What did I do wrong or why it freeze always? I forgot one step, etc.?
Thank you for the help!

You probably forgot to partition SD Card, most ROM's requires ext2/3/4 partition usually 512MB+, though some needs 1gb+.
There is loads of partitioning guides, i advice to do it with gParted, if you're not comfortable with linux then try recovery from my signature, you'll do it with few clicks.
If you dont know how to flash recovery, download this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=661317&stc=1&d=1311251519
Put it onto your sdcard (not any folders, just root of the SD), rename it to "PB99IMG.zip" or PB99IMG if you have file extensions disabled in windows, and boot into bootloader. (hold vol- and power)
Will ask if you want to update, accept. Go into recovery and make an 1GB EXT3 partition, now flash the ROM you want.
Ofcourse full wipe/factory reset and dalvik cache wipe before you flash new ROM.
Yeah, I also like to use fastboot commander (requires java JDK) to wipe boot, system, userdata, cache and sd-ext.. it's a more extensive wipe than just wiping userdata/ factory reset and ROM's either always seem to work better or it's maybe just a placebo effect
I think the version of the RADIO is old.
I have a new, but I do not know how to install it.
I would like to ask for help.
What programs do i need and where can I download it.
Thank you very much.
use the links in the post above to get fastboot commander, and a newer radio (from official GB update) is in my signature.
Download fastboot commander, boot into fastboot mode, select radio, browse for the radio.img then flash radio. And you're done, it takes a few seconds and I have to remind you to check the md5 because you can brick your phone if it goes bad. so do not interrupt it.
radio MD5 - 432ED609D76AE57BA493DA875CDC9D2D
Hi All,

Noob with a bricked(possible) htc desire

Hi Folks,
i am a noob and have just started picking up the tricks of the trade.i have an unbranded htc desire. Was using the HiAPk rom till now. Then thought of flashing the INsertcoin 1.1.2. Created EXT4 for the same and recopied all data to my sdcard. Now when i try to flash any rom it just gets caught at the boot screen. Hi dont have a recovery image. But i do have a nandroid backup. Restoring the backup is not helping as well. The phone is s-off,rooted with clockword recovery 2.5.0.7. i do have access to recovery but, whatever i do, the phone gets stuck at the boot screen. Please assist. I guess this occured when i accidentally selected/deselected hboot/fastboot option? can that be a potential cause?
Try and go into recovery then wiping Data/Cache, then go to advanced -> wipe dalvik cache and reboot. If it doesnt work, reflash the rom and do the above steps again and reboot. See if it works

Tried doing the above steps but still caught at the boot screen whenever i reboot. Though the rom got installed but, on rebooting the same boot screen staring at me
What version recovery do you have? Try updating it, although remember that having a nandroid backup from an older recovery wont restore if you are on a newer recovery. So maybe it isn't a good idea to update your recovery if you only have a nandroid from an older recovery.
BEFORE READING ON: What partitions are you using? It could be that the new ROM you want to flash doesn't fit in the current partitions you have flashed. Stock? CM7r2? Oxygen?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Try with Fasboot Commander v1.51 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193915).
Here are steps I used last night when I was in the same situation as you:
1.Once you download Fastboot Commander, make sure you have the latest java downloaded on your PC (java.sun.com).
2.Once you've done that, open up Fastboot Commander on your PC, then boot your phone using Vol Down + Power and choose "FASTBOOT".
3.Then, connect your phone to your PC using a USB cable and go to the "misc" tab in Fastboot Commander and click "Check connection", and if it's successful, then choose "print device info" so you see everything is OKAY.
4.Paste the "Device Info" here too so we can see what's up!
5. On the same "misc" tab in Fastboot Commander, tick the boxes in the "Erase partitions": System, Cache, Boot
6. Click "Erase Chosen Partitions"
7. Choose "BOOTLOADER" on your phone display, and when it's done, disconnect the USB cable.
8. Flash the new ROM as usual, while doing a full wipe right after you flashed it (still in recovery): Dalvik/Data/Cache
9. Reboot when done and hopefully it will work.
If it doesn't work, I think it will be that you are trying to install a ROM which supports a different partition table than what you have flashed, which is causing the bootloops because of the lack of space on the partitions needed.
Good luck

Hi, was using a HiApk ROM till now which needs no partitions at all. Also i agree that it might be the case that the new rom which i want to flash is not supporting the partitions(no reasons why HiAPK shouldnt run coz had been running it without partitions for the past 2months). Before going ahead ,do u think i should i re-format my sdcard to FAT32 and delete the partitions..Just in case this doesnt work out i go ahead with the fastboot commaHer. Whatever you suggest is what i am going to do. Thanks.

Also the new ROM that i was trying to flash requires a 1gb ext2/3/4. So i did a 1 gb Ext4 partition. This one is the stable insertcoin 1.1.2

EDIT: Forgot to mention that in order to use Fastboot Commander you'll need the ADB drivers. Just install HTC Sync to get the drivers for it!
Since you say in the beginning that you are S-Off and have Recovery 2.5.0.7, the only things I can think of that you haven't done are this:
1. Insertcoin 1.1.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016940&highlight=insertcoin) says you need to be S-off (which you are), and have the latest recovery (5.0.1.0). So my first piece of advice would be to update your recovery to 5.0.1.0 from what you have now (2.5.0.7) but remember what I said about nandroid backups and recovery earlier on!!
2. Make sure you have a 1GB Ext2, Ext 3 or Ext4 partition on your SD-card. The way to partition your SD-card is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7279872&postcount=3
Insertcoin says it should work on the stock HBOOT which I'm assuming you have since you said you've never flashed another partition table on your phone.
So basically, update your recovery (best done with Fastboot Commander imo) and make sure the md5 sums match up. Once you've updated your recovery, make sure your SD card is ready, then wipe everything in recovery and reflash the rom, and wipe everything in recovery again before rebooting.
Again, remember that since you made your nandroid backup in CWM 2.5.0.7, it wont be able to restore in CWM 5.0.1.0 so basically once you update your recovery your nandroid from 2.5.0.7 will be useless.

Hey Eddie N,
Just one thing. Now just to get back to the ROM i was running till now, should i just flash HiAPK now after doing all those steps as u suggested? Once i get through with this i can go ahead to flash insertcoin. But , first priority now is to just run the phone out of the boot screen in HiAPK(as it requires no partitioning/no recovery issues).. Thanks for the invaluable help. I am gonna keep u posted
I'd do this now:
Nandroid back to your HiAPK, then get RomManager and in Rom Manager update your CWM from 2.5.0.7 to 5.0.1.0 (the EASIEST way). Do a nandroid backup right away through rom manager after installing the new recovery so you can always go back if something goes wrong!! Reboot to recovery and reflash insertcoin.
After doing that you should have what's needed to run insertcoin (S-Off, latest recovery, Stock hboot, 1gb ext2/3/4). Before you didn't have latest recovery and you changed SD-card but i assume you fixed your SD-card now
If nandroiding back doesn't work, reflash it from scratch. If THAT doesn't work I'm not quite sure how to help you further I'm new myself but managed to fix my bootloop last night with the method i gave you

You are the man!!!yes i changed my sd card now. MAybe my sd card has gone bad. No wonder i couldnt flash any rom..Now back to HiAPK. I am gonna setup my sdcard again using gparted. Dont rely think the partitioning tool i was using till now was wrking(perhaps damaged my sd card) Thanx a lot mate
Just checked.. The phone was loading up even without the sd card(the one suspected of having gone kaput). But, now when restart the phone with that sd card it gets stuck at the boot screen. Any reason why this can be happening?
Seriously.. there should be sticky saying that stuck at htc screen, or bootloop is not a brick.

[Q] Always rebooting

I have CM7 and it's worked well, until yesterday, when I installed SD Maid and I did some delete with Corpse Finder (maybe was not the problem). And few hours later I reboot my phone (had problem with ADW), but after still reboot immediately, when the system is up.
I tried these steps:
- with the recovery mode: wipe data/factory reset, after wipe cache partition, and install .zip (CM7) from SD Card
- wipe davlik cache
- HBOOT menu (like in downgrade): install PC10IMG.zip (in recovery mode was fail)
- try to root again in recovery mode, but cant going thru on this: adb push recovery.... .img file, and after the root_psn file, until the end of the commands.
But did not work nothing.
So please help me, what I have to do?!
you could try superwipe:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044992
afterwards wipe also through recovery (data/cache/dalvik) and then do a fresh install of whatever...
maybe it helps
OK, it is works, but have a problem too.
After used this SuperWipe, I put CM7 also. And it was good.
But I forget the google services, and after I installed this, had a same problem with the rebooting...
...then try different gapps or do a fresh install: flash cm7 and straight afterwards gapps (don´t boot into cm7 before flashing gapps)
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version/Google_Apps
you could google for older ones
EDIT: ok in samsung galaxy 3 forum i have read that people had problems with gapps because of a corrupted sdext partition - as far as i remember from my old htc magic where i used sdext you can fix this through recovery
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Thanks. I solved the problem (avoid the problematic step). But it was another, what I guess in the first time.
So, the gapps was correct, because I started from the superwipe again, and flash CM7 and the gapps too. And it is working properly until, when I has changed the mobile connection to "only 2g" (sometimes I prefer this, because less battery usage). And got the reboot problem again.
Now I leave my mobile in 3G and still working properly.
Thanks for the help!!

[Q] Stuck on bootscreen

Hey, My phone was working fine till yesterday. N when i tried to flash dk froyo .i had to change the kernel and i guess the bootscreen(htc logo) freezed because of that. I tried flashing hcdr and other kernels and even changed rom back to cm 7.But nothing seems to help.Only cwm is working on my phone. CAn someone help me please
btw its a wildfire
Your best bet Is to try run a ruu as that would reset the phone back to stock, bootloader and kernal, but depending on how you s-offed you may lose the ability to root.( untill you s-off again.) Good luck
sent from my steroid powered, cyanogenmod filled wrecking machine! using xda app.
Perform a full wipe (In CWM, Select "Data Wipe / Factory Reset", then, staying in CWM, go to Mounts and Storage, Select "Format /system". After this, flash a ROM (any) and check if it boots.
Tried. Its still not working. Can any1 post a nandroid backup file of any rom for wildfire. Please. I formatted my sd card too by mistake.
and while flashing a ruu. it always shows a error E:Failure at line 65 and something. Its different everytime
Connect your Wildfire to your PC, In CWM, Go to Mounts and Storage, and Select "Mount USB Storage". This will activate Mass Storage Mode and you can access your SDCard on your PC as normal. (I don't think anyone would upload a Nandroid backup of his own, it contains personal stuff like contacts and all. But, if someone does, good for you)
i mount usb storage n then do wat..? i tried flashing every rom possible. But its still not working. Is it the kernel's problem or what??
I am pretty certain performing a full wipe (Following options in CWM - 1: Data Wipe - Factory Reset, along with 2: Wipe Cache Partition, 3: Format /cache, 4: Format /system, 5: Format /data, 6: Wipe cache partition, 7: Wipe Dalvik Cache) in CWM and flashing a fresh ROM will fix your issue, UNLESS your phone is not bricked due to bad flash, but since you already claim that you have done that, I can't help you any further on this.
EDIT - Also one more thing - When you flash the kernel / ROM, do you get a confirmation message "Installation Complete"? What is your CWM version?
Yes i do.it says installation comple and its v3.0.0.6
Sense ROM's like DK will not work on CWM versions above 2.x.x.x. Anyway, since you tried CM7 already, One last suggestion in that case would be to try flashing the RUU via the bootloader.
Steps -
1: Download the RUU you want to install
2: Extract the rom.zip from the RUU. Procedure here
3: Once you have that rom.zip, Rename it to PC49IMG.zip
4: Transfer this to the root of your SDCard (i.e. - Not in any folders / sub-folders)
5: Restart device in HBoot Mode (Press Vol Down + Power simultaneously)
6: It will scan for the file, and ask to install. Follow On-Screen instructions.
Ill give it a try.
owe you big time man..Thanx a lot..

[Q] Total block my wildfire s

Hello.
I have my wildfire that's practically 2 days ago that no
Continuous reboot of the white HTC screen.
All this because I moved some app on sd system
(link2sd, s-on, root, gold card,) having an urgent need for space,
seen that the partition was over 1gb ext. result:
almost 350 apps, many even expensive, its saved data, photos,
videos, notes etc.. all gone, with the joke that is not restarted.
I tried with bootloader, recovery, custom rom, hard reset etc.,
no nothing. What do I do? I throw it in for service since
will realize modding, or someone you know give me some advice?
Thank you for your attention.
Sorry for my English
try wiping dalkiv first, i think that's often problem that causes bootloops...
but if it's because you've lost some system apps, you might need to comoletely re-install system from scratch?
don't worry about your paid apps, once you get the system up and running again, you can re-load your google account and get them all back
Hello and thank you for attention.
The problem is that in recovery mode does not gives me the chance to wipe.
Not even hard reset works. I tried to install custom ROM without any results. I want to reinstall everything from scratch, is it possible?
thanks
as long as you can get to the recovery menu you should be ok.
when you press and hold volume down and power then choose recovery...what screen do you get to? is it a custom recovery like CWM (clockworkmod) or is it the stock htc recovery (which just shows some sort of caution logo i believe).
if you have only thehtc stock recovery, you need to get a PG76IMG.zip for custom recovery and put this on the root of your memory card, then restart the phone with volume down+power and it should start reading the PG76IMG.zip and install custom recovery.....
from here you'll have all the options you need to wipe everything etc...
once you have this up and running, what i tend to do if everything has gone wrong is to wipe EVERYTHING and start from scratch.
I go into mounts and storage and format everything, then coem out, choose wipe data/factory reset, then choose wipe cache, then advanced, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats, fix permissions...
then turn off phone, choose factory reset from the bootloader menu, then bot into reovery again to install custom rom or stock rom.
hope this makes some sort of sense, this is all jsut off the top of my head mind.... :s
thanks now I try and let you know
I tried in bootloader mode with cwm recovery 5.0.2.8, and returns to the bootloader.
I installed the file pg761img. It reads CID incorrect.
Finally factory reset is accessible only in bootloader, because the device always crashes on htc white screen and when I do not restart the time.
What do you think?
if you are getting cid error, i think it means you need to make "goldcard" in order to use pg761img.zip to flash custom recovery
he should install the RUU it is stickied its gonna put your phone back to stock as if you just bought it from the store

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
^^^^^^this
may also still need to make goldcard though, I think I had to when I wanted to use RUU.
if you can't get around some RUU errors though, you can try using the rom.zip from the ruu, extract boot.img and system.img and use fastboot at command prompt to flash them?
no root
Help root permissions that are not forthcoming, now that a friend of mine put it back in place, I can not swirling.
I tried more than once with htc supertool v3 but no dice. I noticed, looking at the phone info
and the bootloader screen, some differences related to the rom and radio than before.
But I think the phone has the unlocked bootloader. Suggestions?

try installing root.zip from cwm recovery
ok now I try. I would explain the process please? I am afraid to make a 'more trouble
just boot into cwm recovery (which i'm presuming you have installed already? if not, just use any of the tutorials, you're s-off so should have no problem insatlling custom recovery using tutorial).
put root.zip on your sd card
boot into recovery by holding volume down and press power, then scroll to "recovery" and press power to select.
once in custom recovery, select to install zip fom sd card, select to choose zip file and choose the root.zip
no need to wipe anything, just install then reboot system and confirm it's working by launching app "superuser" and attempt to update from within the app....if it updates it will say "that was cool, do it again?"....else it will say "update failed, retry".
GAPPS disappeared
Hi, I finally solved the problem, but I have created a 'more. I installed the cwm recovery, followed by recovery I installed the zip file root. Everything perfect, it is installed superuser and then I installed from market to link link2sd 8gb sd (6.40 gb fat32 - 64mb-1gb ext3 linux swap) some apps including GMail, MARKET, MAPS AND SEARCH. The problem is that they are gone after a cleanup of the cache and the data, I also tried to install some packages from the recovery GAPPS do not install them. Some help?
if your apps are missing maybe sounds like the ext partition is bot being mounted?
run link2sd and there is an option to "recreate mont scripts", be sure to choose the correct partition type that you have created e.g. ext2, ext3, or ext4?
