Hello Guys...
I've write about my problem in a thread title...
What can I do? : ((
P.S. RMA is impossible...
Can you Enter Hboot? (press volume down+power on)
A bit more details of your problem would be much helpful.
sorry to use this thread for my problem but I thought it's not necessary to open a second one with the same problem.
I can't enter recovery or boot into OS. It freezes at the splash screen. I tryed to flash a new recovery via fastboot but it didn't help. So I'm going to try to install an official ROM and redo the other stuff to get root again.
My problem is ... is unrevoked able to give me root no matter which hboot comes with the official rom? I have to install the one which is on the o2 homepage. HTC Desire: Version 2.14.207.1
I googled a bit and found answers that it doesn't matter which hboot I have after that but I just want to make sure.

Quoting from CrimzonEyed above, Can you Enter Hboot? (press volume down+power on)
This might work for BOTH of you
WAIT, BEFORE YOU START, CREATE A GOLDCARD. IT IS VERY NECESSARY. THINGS WILL GO WRONG IF YOU DONT.
EDIT: YOU MUST BE ABLE TO BOOT GO TO THE BOOTLOADER MENU.
Firstly, download this file. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13240777/Desire Downgrade.ZIP
Extract the files.
Run the win-down.bat file.
Follow on screen instructions.
After the process is completed, Head to the root of your SD card and check if there is a file named P99***IMG (FORGOT THE EXACT NAME BUT IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE THIS) there should be one.
Secondly, disconnect your phone and turn it off.
After that boot up your phone while pressing the volume down button and the power button.
The bootloader should be checking for files after awhile and once it found the file that is supposed to be in the root of your sd card, press the volume up button (NOT EXACTLY SURE, SHOULD BE THE ONE THAT SAYS YES AND CONTINUE)
It should be writing files to your phone. and replaces everything. E.G: HBOOT, RECOVERY,RADIO and such.
It should be writing files successfully and then it would ask you to reboot. Continue with the reboot and you should be having your Desire back to stock. Perfect.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE ARE RISKS INVOLVED LIKE FAILURE OF WRITING TO THE HBOOT. PLEASE REMEMBER TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS. MAINLY, DO NOT BLAME ME FOR ANYTHING THAT GOES WRONG.
FINALLY, YOU SHOULD BE READING EVERYTHING UP TO HERE AND THAT YOU MUST HAVE A GOLDCARD (A GOLD SD CARD)
Hope this helps you and please ask if you have further questions. PM me if the questions cannot be answered here. Good Luck
Does anyone know what is the stock ROM (RUU) for Vip (Vodafone) branded phones bought in Croatia?
Since i can't get HTC sync to recognize my phone (tried dozen of solutions: different USB drivers, installing PDAnet, older/newer versions of Sync, Android SDK... none worked), is there a way to return it to stock ROM using SD card? I have read that i just need to run the RUU, take out *.zip out of the temp folder in Window and put it on phones SD card.
I want to return my HTC Desire to stock ROM so i can receive official OTA updates.
Phone details:
SLCD screen
PVT 4 SHIP S-ON
Erasesize 20000
HBOOT 0.93.0001
model number A8181
Currently it is rooted (by unrEVOked 3.22) and has ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 installed.
Thank you! / Hvala!
Have you checked shipped-roms.com?
Note: You will need a to find an RUU greater than version 2.0 as you have an SLCD screen. If you flash an RUU lower than this version, you will end up with an SLCD brick.
Thank you for the heads up. I did a lot of google-ing and searching the XDA forum and i am aware of SLCD screen "problems", so that's why i stated it in the phone specs
The latest Vodafone RUU i can see is: "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed.exe" but i am not sure if Vip Croatia is using those Vodafone UK ROMs or some other ones?

Best thing would be to get the latest Generic WWE RUU - RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
EDIT: You will also need to create a Gold Card, use the tool in my sig below to do so.
Just to add, you will still receive OTA updates.
After you download the RUU, do the following to carry out the PB99IMG method:
(1) In order to extract the rom.zip from the RUU, run the RUU to the Welcome screen (do not connect the phone at all). While the RUU is running, go to Start > Run, and type in %Temp%.
(2) Look for the rom.zip, copy it to the Desktop, and then rename it to "PB99IMG.zip" (and not PB99IM.zip.zip, the .zip is the extension and is not part of the actual filename itself)
(3) Mount your SD card and then place the PB99IMG.zip to the root of the SD card.
(4) Unmount the SD card and turn off the phone.
(5) Hold down the volume down key, and press the power button once, release the vol down key when in the Bootloader screen.
(6) You will then be asked to apply the PB99IMG.zip.
As a result, this will erase all your phone data, just like performing a hard/factory reset.
Thank you for the tips and guide MasDroid! I will use the ROM you suggested.
*i've created goldcard before i started to mess with the phone, so i can have it for "worst case" scenarios - better safe than sorry
samo da pozdravim sunarodnjaka
Takodjer
Nadam se da si uspio.
Hope it works.
I have tried this but when It reboots it just loads zip file and I get options:
fastboot
recovery
clear storage
simlock
And When I try to update for exe file I get CID error?
Can you help me to unroot my Desire?
Thanks

Still haveing the same problem. What do i need to do to get back to stock rom?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I'm stuck at a nearly 99% brick I think...
I've got an AMOLED Desire from T-Mobile Germany (still branded), with HBOOT 0.80.0000, rooted via Unrevoked and still S-ON.
The phone gets stuck during the boot process when the provider-splashscreen (or HTC-Logo) is shown at the beginning. Only pulling out the battery will shut the phone down.
The same happens when I try to get into Recovery via HBOOT. The only option is to pull the battery.
If I connect the phone via USB and enter Fastboot it is recognized by the computer with the command "fastboot devices".
I can't use ADB, because I can't access the recovery.
I downloaded the right RUU for my provider/amoled/hboot 0.80.0000 Desire (RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed) and extracted the ROM.zip from the installer. I renamed the file to PB99IMG.zip and manually moved it to the SDcard using my computer.
But, when I enter HBOOT the file is recognized and extracted, but then it fails ...due to an "incorrect CID".
The same happens if I manually execute the RUU....exe under Windows with my phone plugged in via USB. (It's error code 131 in the flash program of the RUU....exe).
A very helpful user (cargo) of a german Android forum (www.android-hilfe.de - link to his posting) assumed that my HBOOT is not correctly displayed and I might have a "newer" one than 0.80.0000
This leaves me quite without any option than to flash HTC RUU 2.29.405.5, which brings HBOOT 0.93.0001...(but I may be able to downgrade again.)
But this flash process is only possible if I have a Goldcard, which I actually don't have at the moment
Is there any way to create a Goldcard for my device in my actual position (only fastboot working, no boot to run the system, no adb working, no recovery access)?
Every howto explaining the goldcard crating process requires either working adb or even a running system for apps like "goldcard helper" or being able to use "terminal emulator"
I would be very very thankful for every bit of help
Maybe there is some way
Thanks in advance guys!
I believe that goldcards are specific to the card and not the phone(read it somewere on here) so it should be possible to make one without using your phone.

As far as I know you need the phone for your goldcard. At least it was said in the tutorial I was following a few months back. You need to connect the phone to get the serial number (through ADB shell) which you will need to hex-reverse and put it on your SD card image.
To be honest, they are more sophisticated methods now (as I read) creating a goldcard, but since unrEVOked, i do not follow that part.
And by the way, why don't you flash the HTC RUU 2.29.405.5? 0.93 HBOOT can be downgraded. But with the latest tools you can S-Off, root & whatever with that HBOOT, too.
I just tried flashing the HTC RUU 2.29.405.5 with the PB99IMG-method.
But I get an error "CID incorrect"
I treid to execute the HTC RUU.exe and I get again error code 131...which means something like "user-ID error"
But I could grab a screenshot of the actual "version" of the RUU...or what is this?
Thanks guys
CID incorrect? Your phone is unbranded or branded? Because I found this:
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDOR ID
Every device contains a short string that identifies the operator who sold it. Because the same device is sold by different operators, this prevents users from flashing a T-Mobile ROM to a device that was sold by Orange, for example. You probably need to Install a HardSPL or CID Unlock your device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I recommend to find a RUU for your device (e.g Vodafone, T-mobile etc.)
Also:
ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the update. The RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the Android phone. Make sure you use the correct RUU to update.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If it's saying wrong CID then it's branded, simple as that
1. Boot your phone in fastboot
2. Run the ruu that matches your phone.
You need a T-mobile branded ruu.
You can look here for one that matches. http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo
I think you can try an UK one, because it is multilingual.
If it is giving you the same errors, then you picked a wrong version.

well it said "incorrect cid" even with a t-mobile branded ruu :/
If you are rooted, then boot into the bootloader and flash a custom rom. Then create a gold card.

Yes, try that too, if you can.
Also use a NOA2SD Rom if you dont have ext partition. Or create one on your PC (if you want to use an A2SD ROM).
How can I flash a Rom using the bootloader?
Simply rename the zipped Image of a custom Rom into "PB99IMG.zip", put in on the SDcard and boot into HBOOT?
Thank you

Yes, if you rooted with unrEVOked. Boot in to recovery (clockworkMOD/AmonRa) wipe all data and flash a CUSTOM rom.
You don't have to rename it, it can be anything as soon as it is .zip

Uhm...flashing a custom rom in general is no problem...but i can't access Recvoery
as described in the initial post of the thread only the bootloader (HBOOT) and fastboot are working.

Yeah, sorry, my bad.
Well you can try to falsh it via PB99IMG.zip, but i won't think it work.
your only hope is finding a working RUU. (at least seems to me, if you can access only fastboot).
Hi all, have same trouble with flashing via PB99IMG, but in my case, the device normally loads the firmware and returned to fastbut. When you try to go to recovery device hangs on the logo. Фfter removing the battery and re-attempt to restart the device, it begins to vibrate 7 times and then freezes on the logo. What do these vibration?
PB99IMG.zip will work as you don't need recovery. Just put it on the root of your SD card and boot into HBOOT. It'll find the file and flash it
did renaming rom to pb99img nd flash via hboot work for you?
i have a similar problem, rather same prob, only fastboot available
To let this thread maintain usefullness for future readers:
The solution was to take a goldcard from a friend and flash the right (matching hboot, provider and version) RUU, by using the PB99IMG method.
By this the phone will be set back to it's delivery state! This will include the Rom, all data in the NAND storage the recovery and everything else, which got modified like getting root access or S-OFF etc.
Troubles were caused by USB-Brick or an error on my old ext3 partition or maybe even corrupt data in my Titanium file-backup I restored a few days before the crash :/
I can't clearly say what is the main cause...maybe it was a combination of all.
If you don't have got any chance of getting another goldcard (yes the goldcard creation does NOT depend on the devices! It can be created with ANY android phone ) you are really screwed.
My advice: Always keep a spare microSD card, equipped with it's goldcard image around!
Because I was not able to find any method to echo the CID (Id of the SDcard) in fastboot.
Greetings
And good luck to all of you having comparable issues
Hi All
Sorry if this has been resolved before but I can't see the solution.
I have just got hold of an HTC Wildfire that's stuck on Fastboot:
BUZZ PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.80.007
MICROP-0622
TOUCH PANEL-ATMELC03_16ac
RADIO-3.35.15.31
Aug 9 2010,22:37:43
Lets assume its never been rooted - what are my options
Currently none of the buttons work in Fastboot.
When I hold the power and volume down it enters HBOOT but as before non of the buttons or touch sensor works, tho if I plug in the usb cable it changes to HBOOT USB PLUG.
Any ideas on how I can bring it back to life?
TiA
I.
I am definitely lost here. I have no idea what you mean by "Stuck at Fastboot". Fastboot is a special mode enabled when you S-OFF the device using AlphaRev / Revolutionary, which allows special Fastboot commands, previously only allowed on engineering sample devices and developer devices. AFAIK, there is no such thing as "Fastboot" on a never rooted HTC Wildfire.
Anyway, it seems everything is in order (Because, I dont know what happens when you are trying to turn on the phone normally). But, note that when in HBOOT mode, you have to wait a while for the phone to scan through the sdcard for PC49IMG files. Once the scan is over, only then you can navigate through it. Also, navigation is achieved using the side volume buttons, and, to select an entity, use the power button. No other button, and the touch will not respond in the HBOOT Mode, and it is normal.
Now, assuming your device is not booting, try installing the Stock ROM over it again, but since installing an RUU will not be possible since the device is not booting, you will have to extract the ROM.zip from one.
- Download the Froyo WWE 2.22.405.1 RUU from here - (It is an EXE File) - http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Buzz
- Extract the ROM.zip file from the RUU. Follow this method (Assuming you have a Windows PC) http://lukasz.szmit.eu/2010/04/extracting-rom-files-from-htc-android.html
- Once you have that file, rename it to PC49IMG.zip, place on your SDCard, then reboot in HBOOT mode. It will attempt to install the ROM itself. Remember again, only use the Power button to select stuff in HBOOT mode, and side volume keys to navigate.
Thanks for the reply: Sorry I failed to report that the device jumps straight to HBOOT from power on. Downloading the required files I'll do an update once the steps have been followed.
UPDATE:
Loading PC49IMG.zip
Checking PC49IMG.zip
CID incorrect!
Update FAIL!
Press <POWER> to reboot.
It's going to need a Goldcard in that case. Create one using this guide:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
Alternately, use this GUI App to that:
http://android.modaco.com/topic/308798-pc-application-goldcardtool/
Thanks but correct me if I am wrong but don't you need to have a working Wildfire to generate a Gold card? (debug mode on)
Got an interesting update,
As I'm getting CID error's I'm guessing its down to the phone being a branded model.
Looking at the Phone, I ruled out Orange and Virgin as they usually plaster their logo all over the the phone.
Did I few keyword searches with keywords from the Part number and other digits on the box.
It started to look like a H3G (Three) Phone.
Using the link above I downloaded:
RUU_Buzz_H3G_UK_1.16.771.2_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_131501_signed.exe (Eclair version)
Followed the steps and above and it gave me the following error:
Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
So success! (well sort off). does anyone have a H3G (Three) UK signed Froyo image (exe) RUU?
Thanks
I.
There is an OTA update.zip available for H3G UK. Look for this file on Shipped ROMs:
OTA_Buzz_Froyo_H3G_UK_2.33.771.1-1.26.771.1_release_163490jq8do89dc3y83p6w.zip
Now, I am not 100% certain on how to install this, since I personally have never tried it, but, try this procedure nevertheless.
- Download that file
- Rename to update.zip
- Then, place it on your SDCard
- Reboot in HBOOT mode
- Navigate to RECOVERY in HBOOT Mode, Press Power button. This will show you a red triangle with an exclamation mark
- Now, Press VOL UP + POWER simultaneously, this should take you to the Stock Recovery
- Here, select apply SD:update.zip. It will again automatically attempt to update the ROM.
Again thanks for your help... I'm so close
Remember none of the keys are responsive even waiting for the timeout of the loading.
Also using a different method I've think I've created a goldcard. (If it works I'll post how I did it.)
What do I do once I have a goldcard?
What file should I be looking to install?
A generic WWE one in that case, (Froyo WWE 2.22.405.1 as I linked earlier, or, Eclair 1.37.405.1, both available as EXE's)
Remember though, Goldcards are device specific. But, the defective keys are indeed a problem. In such a case, I guess the only method that remains is the one I posted in post #2
Good Luck
FECK!
So if my goldcard was working, using the extraction rom.zip process in Step 2 it would override the CID incorrect issue, am I correct?
Currently I am still getting the same error message...
Back to the drawing board...
Yes, that is about correct. Also, some sdcards do not like being made into goldcards, so, if possible, try with another. (If even after retrying, it doesn't work)
Well I'm one step closer...
Created a Goldcard and I was able to install the ROM.zip it reported that it worked, however when I powered the unit back on it went straight back for fastboot....
:/
Are you sure it's an undamaged phone? Now it seems that it's sort of damaged. (Board / button damage). The RUU flash should have solved any software issues, because, as you verified, it did flash successfully.
BTW, can you tell me which RUU you flashed, and what do you get as the first few lines of HBoot? (Which initially was Buzz PVT SHIP S-ON, HBOOT 0.80.0007... etc)?
Checked all the buttons - seem to be ok, I can hear the micro switches clicking:
It has been updated:
HBOOT-1.01.0001
MICROP-0622
RADIO-3.35.20.10
Downloading SUnAaBh v1.1 will see if that will work.
You can't flash Sunaabh / Other ROM's using this method. Official one's only. The buttons may click, but, if they are not doing what they are intended to do, it's obviously damaged,
Hmm, ok can I force a clockworkmod flash?
It's going to need the S-OFF exploit by Revolutionary to push Clockworkmod Recovery, which I guess needs USB Debugging on.
http://revolutionary.io/
Well
Volume down and power button works - otherwise it would not have gone into HBOOT and Volume up button works otherwise I would not have been able to start the flash.
Def a strange one...
See if you can do a "Clear Storage" in HBoot, although it's not going to help, it's worth a shot IMO.
BTW, doesn't the phone automatically enter in HBoot when you turn on just using the Power key?
Hi, yesterday night i try to downgrade my DHD, with aahk-13012012, but I can`t. Then I go to options menu, and select install clockworldmod, with device non rooted, and not s-off ( My DHD still with Orange stock rom 2.3.5 and sense 3).
I boot in recovery mode, and flash IceColdSandwich-7.4. desire hd AOKP-signed.zip
The instalation finished well, but I only can boot device i Hboot.
I select factory reset option in hboot.
Then I can`t start android, I can`t start Hboot.
When I start DHD still white screen with green HTC logo
I dont know what can I do without Hboot.

Phone is plugged, I uninstall all htc drivers and reinstall aahk htc windrivers, but I cant enable USB debugging because I can`t start android.
What can I do with my Desire hd?
thanks for all in advance, and sorry for my english
First off before you continue, STOP. Good news it is fixable, bad news that goes beyond my knowledge. Don't try anything else until you find the correct thread with the same problem, or someone else points you in the right direction.
After I have some lunch and do a few things I'll see if I find what you need or someone else comes in before that.
Apparently I'm in a good mood today
Sent from a dream.
Hold down volume up and power button to boot into HBoot, from there you will need to install CWM and you'll be able to have a custom ROM. You will need SOFF and root access

Jesus, if you have read the WHOLE manual then u wouldn´t be here....STOP trying things because u eventually will end up messing your device.
Are u able to boot in hboot?....if so, just let me know and I will lend u a hand..
hboot run
ok, now I know that my vol- button is damaged, I need to push vey hart to enter in hboot.
Please help, I read the entire manual, I understand that must do downgrade because Im not sOFF and Im not root.
I put the PM98IMG.zip in the main directory of SD and run bootloader, but nothing happen, bootloader dont find image.
I format SD in FAT32 and try
SD checking Loadinf.... PD98DIAG.zip
No image
Loading PD98DIAG..nbh
No image or wrong image
Loadinf PD98IMG.zip
and after a minute it continue with...
Wrong zipped image!
Loading PD98DIAG.nbh
No image or wrong image
what can i do?
You'll need to flash a RUU before continue with rooting and downgrade.

Ok, got it running
So here's the procedure in case someone else has the same problem.
1) Find the RUU you need to go back to what you had before, in my case it was the 3.17 asia
2) Get the rom.zip from this file : start install and when it tells you that it is not possible go to your my documents/user/local files/temp folder, sort the folders by DATE so that you have the latest used on top and open it, in this folder there will be the rom.zip file
3) Rename this rom.zip file to PD98IMG.zip, send it to the root of the SD (best way is to get the SD out of the phone and do it from the computer)
4) Launch the phone in recovery (power and then hold VOL DOWN) the phone will ALWAYS try to check PD98IMG.zip and if it checks it will ask you if you want to install it, just say yes (for me it took all night)
5) when you're back to your latest rom, you can use the aahk, for me I had to run it 2 times but in the end it it S-OFF and then install whatever rom you want.
Thanks to everybody who has helped me on this

I format SD in FAT32 and try
SD checking Loadinf.... PD98DIAG.zip
No image
Loading PD98DIAG..nbh
No image or wrong image
Loadinf PD98IMG.zip
and after a minute it continue with...
Wrong zipped image!
Loading PD98DIAG.nbh
No image or wrong image

If You are not s-off and still in warraty, then You can flash the Ruu in fastboot. Get me the Cid number and i will try to find a working ruu
understanding the trouble and solving!!
Ok, I think you're right, I've been looking for what the CID of Orange Spain
CID Orange Spain -> ORANG309
I will try to find some RRU with this CID
When I can download the RUU
1 install to fet rom.zip
2 rename rom.zip to PD98IMG.zip
3 Format SD to FAT32 put PD98IMG.zip in SD
4 Start bootloader to install
Thats right?
A thousand of thanks everybody for help!
EDIT. I search RUU for orange spain, but cant find anyone, everybody write that dont exist. I found an orange spain backup for recovery, I think that must have the same CID.
I try to download and restore with recovery mode.
Later post the result

ok, there's no RUU for Orange Spain, so I guess you will have to use an unbranded ruu....if your volume rocker is broken and u still are S-ON why don't u take it to service? you might mess it a bit more trying to get it working...
of curse, but Its a 2nd hand phone with original box, headpones, charger, etc, I buy trought ebay and the seller dont give me the bill of sale Im trying to send mail,but he doesn`t answer my mails...
I download unbranded RUU, and rename PD98IMG.zip.
I put PD98IMG.zip in SD, and run Bootloader
Bootloader install PD98IMG.zip correctly but phone continue with white screen and green htc.
I try to restore from recovery an orange spain backup made by zhecloud from htcmania.
Revocery restore the files, but the phone continue with white screen and green htc.
I try to istall wwe RUU, and the program detect the phone, but can`t update it, say that search an RUU version compatible.
