Hiya i wanted to root and CWM my new desire HD so i followed this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841076
Everything went fine and i got CWM up and running and installed MIUI but didnt like it so i wanted to go CM7 but i accidently went to the first sort of recovery mode (the one with the android on skateboards =)
http://www.nexus-lab.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/desire-hboot.jpg )
So it automatically started to install the HTC android 2.2 Ver 1.32.405.6
that went all fine but now all the apps keep automatically crashing but the worst bit is i cant seem to be able to access the recovery mode or CWM no matter how i press the volume buttons during start up i know the volume buttons work fine as they change volume etc but when i press them at start up its as if the phone ignores them and just countines to turn the phone on normally...
Im new to the desire hd but i do have experience from CWM from Dell Streak days...
Any help appreciated...
Power off phone.
HOLD vol dn, & then press Pwr On button once (Don't release vol dn until have Bootloader menu (HBOOT).
Use vol key to go to highlight Recovery, press pwr button once
Should boot into CWM Recovery (mine shows the HTC logo for a few secs first), if it's installed properly
Edit: If you still have the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard, it will ask if you want to install/update. NO.

Ive tried this but no matter how i press the vol dwn button it refuses to go into recovery mode and just boots up into normal sense...
You say all apps keep crashing,..........
If ROM Manager doesn't crash, you can "Reboot into Recovery" from there.
Hold on im getting something...
i can access the recovery bit but when i highlight the recovery button it gives me a red esclamation mark
so i ran a factory reset and the apps seem to be working for the moment
but still the red esclamation mark
i assume CWM didnt install properly then? but the rom manager says its installed fine but when i click on the boot into CWM it gives me the same symbol?

Hi there,
I think your phone might not be totally powering off, hence that's why you are not able to get into the bootloader [ the one with Android on skateboards ]
Try this: Make sure your phone is powering off completely before you try to boot into the bootloader. Go to go into Settings > Applications and uncheck the "FastBoot" option in order for it to power down completely.
Then try the same sequence again. Holding down the Volume Down button while starting up.
See if it works.
What happens when your in that ! screen, HOLD vol up & press power button once?
Also
You can also try to boot into Bootloader or Recovery via ADB commands.
Enusre USB debugging enabled and fastboot option disabled.
Check adb connection to phone first in CMD (Command prompt) type:
"adb devices"
you should get a serial number of the phone HTxxxxxxxxxx, meaning it can communicate ok
Then try either;
1. "adb reboot recovery"
2. "adb reboot fastboot"
Ive managed to fix it by going to rom manager and installing a previous version of CWM
Thanks all the guys for the help! XDA FTW
OH just a quick side note if i did every want to just say return everything to normal like how i got the Desire HD you know no CWM or custom roms just with the sense v1.7 how would i do that?
Make a CWM recovery of your Setup now, and also keep it on you pc for safe keeping. Never know if the sdcard becomes corrupted or not. Also make a note of which recovery version was made to produce the backup. Some are incompatable when trying to restore you backup with a different version.
If you mean normal, there are a few links around to revert to stock (if that's what you mean), and tools to help make s-on again. By flashing the stock RUU, you will lose root, and it will overwrite the recovery with stock recovery. If you had to made a goldcard prior to rooting, you may require this.
Added info from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537
To go back to S-ON:
•Flash stock ROM (RUU)
•Temproot using Visionary
•Use my tool, do Stock CID and S-ON (enter brand CID if you had a branded device, see second post)
•Enjoy your factory-state phone

Adding on to what UpInTheAir said, "If you still have the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip on the sdcard, it will ask if you want to install/update."
Note:
If u have finished the Downgrading process and u r done with the 1.32 PD98IMG.zip, remove it from the SDcard, safekeep it on your PC somewhere (in case your might need it again, maybe).
If you do not remove it, each time that you startup into the bootloader [yes, the one with the Android on skateboards.. Hehe.. ], it would automatically scan and if it finds that PD98IMG.zip file, it would begin loading the image to install the 1.32 stock ROM.

I have a really huge problem. I think my Desire bricked completely.
I don't really know if it was SLCD or a normal Desire, while unrooting due flashing PB99IMG.zip the phone turned black, stopped, done nothing and vibrated once.
Now it doesn't do anything anymore. When I plug it in and boot the phone, windows says 'Android 1.0' ... And nothing more.
Is there any solution out there or is it fully bricked?
Go for warranty.
Rubbish!
Read and follow this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831734
In order to help you more you need to give a full account of what you were trying to do and how as well as relevant device info such as were you already rooted, did you try to s-off and anything else that maybe relevant.
Sent with Desire.
Wrong section!
Also as windows recognizer it, it's not bricked(probably wrong ruu and you are slcd bricked so it boots in fastboot, you just cant see it)
Just run the correct ruu through usb.
Also would you like to share which ruu you flashed?
I also don't know why people are running those pb99img.zip things for unrooting =.=
So, um, urm, I forgot to check for SLCD, I know.
I tried this one: RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe
I think this one was the wrong one.
After trying a lot out:
When I hit 'BACK'+'POWER' the windows device-manager says 'Android 1.0' - and then I have three options, I tried, with vol-down and hitting power.
1.) dunno
2.) reboot
3.) reboot to the bootloader
It is still black. I tried with the alpha-rev-pb99img - booting via VOL DOWN and POWER and hitting constantly POWER UP - it seems to do nothing.
fastboot doesn't respond, adb list also no devices...

That RUU is way too old. You should have ran the 2.29.405.5 one.

Android 1.0 is ADB driver, download Android SDK from here:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
This will also install ADB driver.
Nope it's the fastboot driver(not the same as adb)
To solve this just boot using vol-down and connect it to usb. Then run the newest ruu(would be 2.29.405 something) This should flash the newer bootloader with slcd support, and you are back up and running in no time.
Thanks for you help, but anyways, the phone isn't responding, normally.
It only says 'Android 1.0' - and nothing more.
ADB DEVICES doesn't list the phone and FASTBOOT DEVICES neither.

Have you tried using a card reader to put the correct 2.29.405.5 PB99IMG.zip on teh root of SD then boot to Hboot (Down+power)?
man in teh device manager on your computer the drivers of your phone are instaled??
Have you now downloaded the latest RUU as suggedyed?
Have you removed the previous PB99IMG.ZIP file from your SDCARD?
Have you gone in to HBOOT and then after some time -VOL once then POWER key to get the phone in to FASTBOOT then run the new RUU?
the thread that I linked you to advises on the very first post how to extract the ROM.ZIP file if you are unable to flash the RUU conventionally.

theoretically phone when you open or even see it , enter fastboot automatically ,you can revive it , is simply just have the drivers installed
happened to me and I could restore it to life , no panic

So now download this PB99IMG.ZIP from this link, copy to your sdcard and -vol + power button, holding both for about 6 seconds.
Once you have overcome this little learning curve........
1. Make your sdcard in to a GOLD CARD.
2. Go to www.unrevoked.com and follow the Desire how to Root.
3. Go to www.alpharev.nl and download the .iso to get S-OFF.
then you will ask be done within a matter of 30 minutes

okay, well i've done my share of research on these forums and others, and attempted recovery of this phone a few different ways, and nothing is working. i'll tell you everything i know and have tried, and unless i forget something, i'm at a loss for what else to try.
booting the phone regularly, it sticks on the HTC Incredible boot screen.
pressing power and volume down, i can get to hboot. hboot says:

i have flashed a PB31IMG with the stock gingerbread on it from hbbot, that goes through the upgrade procedure, and asks me to reboot when its done, but it still sticks at the white screen.
ive tried installing CWM's and the stock recovery from pvillecomp*com
phone reads zip, then returns to hboot menu with no action taken
card is formatted fat 32, yes.
Well you wont be able to flash CWM because of it being S-On. If you were stuck at the HTC screen prior to you trying all of this, it may be a hardware related issue.
U havto reroot (s-off) in order to flash a rom. Try rerooting.

Yup. I've seen a few Inc that randomly started rebooting and then it stays stuck at the HTC screen. They all turned out to have hardware issues and they are were AMOLED Inc as well. I hope this isn't the case with yours.

sounds like the partitions are mess up. try flashing hboot again to get them to set right. then RUU.exe to get the stock GB back on then try to boot. you will loose any data on the phone with RUU.exe but it might get you a working phone again.

the hboot reflash reads the PB31IMG.zip and returns to hboot screen without offer to reflash. the hboot is .92, as is the version i'm trying to flash. and again, sd card IS fat32.
i used the ruu sucessfully, got all excited to see the new HTC screen in black with the loading bar, but when the flash finished, rebooted the phone, it's still stuck at the white screen. major downer.
no other ideas? paperweight? parts?
Hmmm I am having the exact same issues you are describing and nothing has worked on my phone so far. My phone is currently s-off though. This all started to occur after I did a backup through Rom manager and then also a backup through MIUI rom. A few hours later while it was charging it randomly started the reboot cycle flashing the htc incredible screen. I'll let you know if I am able to fix mine but at the moment it seems were both SOL.
Did you ever find a solution to this problem?
This is a guide I posted in androidforums about a month ago after i went though a bunch of crap to root my phone, hopefully it can be helpful
So, This is the second time I’ve tried to make this post and I feel like I should have known better than to make a giant post like this and then hit submit before copying it to word or something but anyway…..
I thought that I have been through so much to finally get this rooted and have my ROM installed that I thought I am certainly not the only person to have had this problem and I would organize a full instruction guide to Downgrade, root and flash when you have troubles with unrevoked for people who have had similar troubles.
NOTE: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE, THIS GUIDE IS DESIGNED TO HELP DROID INCREDIBLE USERS WHO ARE HAVING TROUBLE ROOTING THEIR PHONES AND I DO NOT KNOW THE EFFECTS A SIMILAR PROCEEDURE WOULD CAUSE TO OTHER PHONES.
First things first, I want to give credit where credit is due. Scotty85 of these forums wrote a large portion of what I am about to tell you and I am simply copying it and I will give you links to his original posts so he gets credit.
Step 1: Downgrade your phone
If your phone already has Android 2.2 on it then you can skip to Step 2
The HTC Incredible cannot be rooted unless it is running android 2.2 froyo, so the first thing you must do is downgrade your phone: I will copy the instructions to here so they are all in one place but here is a link to the original post by Scotty85
http://androidforums.com/incredible...ot-2-3-4-downgrade-get-s-off.html#post3308718
I will provide you with new links because a lot of the ones on Scotty85’s post are dead
First Download These Files:
Hboot Drivers for The droid incredible – from unrevoked
Mini-adb_inc.zip from mediafire
PB31IMG.zip from mediafire
Now, follow the following instructions:
Scotty85 said:
3)prepare to downgrade
-extract the mini-adb_inc .zip. place the extracted folder on the root of your c\ drive. it comtains mtd0,flash_image,and some adb tools.
-extract zergRush.zip. take the image inside,and either copy/paste or drag it into your mini-adb_inc folder
-place the PB31IMG of 2.2 on the root of your sd card. rename PB31IMG. now is a good time to verify that your SD card is formatted "FAT32" by right clicking on the drive that is your phones sd card,then click "properties". if you find your card is formated anything else,youll have to re-format it. start by backing up all files to your PC as reformatting WILL wipe it clean. using your PC,do a full format to FAT32. you can then transfer the files back. *this is important-as your phone will not find the downgrade PB31IMG unless your card is formatted to FAT 32,and the file is correctly named.
4)downgrade with adb. make sure your phone is charged to 100% before starting.
-on windows 7,click the start bubble and type "command" in the search box. this should open a small black command window. from this point forward,all code will be in bold so you know what lines to copy and paste(or type,if you really want to type them all in). additional comments will be blue,and should not be copy/pasted. please note that each line is one command. copy/paste it into the prompt in your command window,and push enter. one line at a time.
at the end of the post,is a copy of my session,to show what the outputs of the entered lines should look like. hopefully,its a little less scary when you know that youre getting the right responses to the things you enter.
-make sure phone is plugged in and usb debugging checked on in charge only mode
-at the promt in your command window:
cd c:\mini-adb_inc this should change your command promt to "mini-adb_inc",indicating youre using that directory.
adb devices this should output your phones serial number,indicating its recognized
md5sums mtd0.img it should output a few things.at the end you should see this number 34307be744275f1db1dd16af04c37839
md5sums flash_image again,it will output some things,then you should see this number: 0098a7dd6600b55fac34fc6645be5d7a
md5sums zergRush again,output stuff, then this number:4a32187446c284c2b975845f3ab9ffc4
*all those numbers must match exactly. if they do then you can procede.
adb push zergRush /data/local/
adb shell this will change your promt to a $
chmod 755 /data/local/zergRush
/data/local/zergRush
this will cause zergRush to start,and it shoudl say "found a gingerbread!" followed by a bunch of other funny stuff.
last thing it says will be: Killing ADB and restarting as root... enjoy!
you should then be returned to your "mini-adb_inc>" prompt
adb push flash_image /data/local/
adb push mtd0.img /sdcard/
adb shell your prompt should change to a #
cd /data/local
chmod 0755 /data/local/flash_image
cd /data/local
./flash_image misc /sdcard/mtd0.img
you can now downgrade back to 2.2,so you can run "unrevoked forever" to regain s-off
exit to get out of your adb shell,and back to the "mini-adb_inc" prompt
adb reboot bootloader this will boot your phone to "fastboot" select "bootloader" with the power button.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now what you need to do is place PB31IMG.zip onto the root of your sd card and run hboot by when turning on your phone holding down the power and volume-down buttons at the same time. It should automatically find the file and ask if you wish to update and you just need to select “yes”.
Step 2: Flash Clockwork Recovery to your phone
You now need to download a few more files and place them somewhere that will be easy to find.
Unrevoked 3.22 from Mediafire – NOTE: if this link ever becomes broken, you must use version 3.22, 3.32 will NOT work.
Clockwork 5.0.2.0 from PvilleComp.com – make sure you use clockwork 5.0.2.0 with md5: e8ac35ddc1c37000bb0852d1f380b5bb
Next, run unrevoked 3.22, as an administrator if you can. And click file>Custom Recovery… and select the .img file which is inside the Clockwork 5.0.2.0 .zip that you downloaded, you may need to extract the folder first.
Next you can plug in your phone and select charge only and then go to Settings>Applications>development> and enable debugging.
Unrevoked should now recognize your phone and bring up a warning dialogue. Click ok and Unrevoked will run and flash Clockwork 5.0.2.0 to your phone. Do not touch your phone until you see a terminal-like screen on your phone in all blue text on a black background.
At this point just click “reboot system now”- you can navigate clockwork using the up and down volume keys and use the power button for “enter” or you can use the scroll button at the bottom of your droid incredible to navigate and center-click for “enter”.
Step 3: Rooting your phone
You will now need to download a few more files and place them on the root of your sd-card
Superuser.zip – found on androidsu.com – simply select the version of superuser.zip that matches your OS, 2.2 Froyo.
Unrevoked forever – from unrevoked.com – look for the unrevokedforever.zip file download
Like I said, place these files on to the root of your SD card at this time using the mass storage feature of your phone when it is booted into android.
Now, boot your phone into clockwork recovery mode. Simply turn off your phone and hold power + volume-down and it will start the hboot and then select “recovery” using the volume keys to navigate and the power button for “enter”
When booted into clockwork navigate to the “install zip from sd card” option and then find the superuser.zip file that you put onto your sd card. Select yes to install and clockwork will install superuser and root your phone.
At this time your phone is rooted, and if this is all you wanted then congratulations, you’re done! Simply click on “reboot system now” and enjoy your superuser powers responsibly
However, if you want to someday in the future flash a ROM to your phone go ahead and use the same procedure you used to install superuser.zip to install unrevokedforever.zip, this is simple to switch the phone from s-on to s-off, which means that the security is off and it will allow you to install unsigned ROMs to the phone (one’s not signed by HTC)
You may now click “reboot system now” to reboot into android.
Step 4: Installing a ROM
Find a ROM from Cyanogenmod or your favorite developer such as and put it onto the root of your sd card.
At this time you have two options for installing a ROM to your phone: you can either manually go into clockworkmod recovery and wipe the cache, data, and system of your phone and then use the “install zip from sd card” and install the ROM
OR you can install ROM manager to your phone (can be found on Google Play, formally Android Market) and install from there. All you need to do is use the app to reflash Clockwork and then select “Install ROM from SD card” and it will do all of the work for you. You can choose to backup your old ROM or to wipe the cache, but after this runs and completes you will boot into your new ROM.
Note: if you format your sd card before this process and have only the ROM on the card it will run much faster.
You’re done! Congratulations! You may have a ROM that does not have google apps pre-installed but there are many guides online for installing the android market and google apps. For example, for cyanogenmod you can just flash a gapps.zip specific for your version using clockwork and it will push all of the apps for you.
Enjoy your now rooted and flashed phone, and as always, root responsibly.

That is incorrect. Using unrevoked 2.3 you can root 2.3.4. And you do not need s-off to flash roms! I can flash roms left and right with no problem,and i can even flash kernels. S-off protects flashing radios.
As far as the stuck in hboot and splash screen,you may be stuck with the bootmode stuck to bootloader.
Google is your friend.

Hello!
I have a HTC One X (EU-version), and it's unlocked.
I used to have Android Revolution HD ROM installed, and would try a new kernel. So I downloaded the new faux kernel (faux_004b5_arhd_7.0.0_modified.img)
Somehow it didn't work, and my phone keep restarting. So I go to the recovery mode, and tried to reinstall the ROM, without whip.
After that I made a reboot, my phone keep reboot. Now I can't go to the recovery mode, either can I flash my device.
I really don't know what to do now.
I hope someone can help, and I posted in the right section.

I had that problem before too. If the "hold power button for 10 seconds then press volume down and power buttons simultaneously" doesn't work, download Quick Boot from playstore and it would allow you to choose to either Reboot, boot to recovery, or the bootloader
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
trick is to run 'adb reboot bootloader' or 'adb reboot recovery'.

I had that problem before too. If the "hold power button for 10 seconds then press volume down and power buttons simultaneously" doesn't work, download Quick Boot from playstore and it would allow you to choose to either Reboot, boot to recovery, or the bootloader

When I hold the power button and volume down for 10 secounds, I come to the fastboot menu.
How can I download Quick Boot, when I don't have acces to my memory. I can't see what I have on my memorycard (obs. because I can't go to the recovery part), either can't connect to the computer, since I'm in a bootloop.
I'm afraid while I was doing this stuff, my battery was low. But it didn't die under the process.
Tyvm for the reply, but I can't install the quick boot.

Can you please explain more?
My Skype is: Dichatz, if a awesome soul could help me there, it would be the greatest thing ever. I'm afraid of that my HTC One X has seen the daylight for the last time
Ty both for the reply.
EDIT: I followed my friends advise, and tried to erase fastboot cache, which seems not able do to. I just getting the message: < waiting for device >.
Dear God, what have I done with my phone!
Dear OP, I believe there is a solution. This situation has occurred with my device more than once. I too believed I had lost it until it resolved itself. There are several things you can do to ensure it works again. I wiped the ROM on my phone before the problem began, so I was stuck with a dead phone until I found a way to get recovery to work again. If it's possible, enter Fastboot and install a new kernel onto it, and THEN use fastboot erase cache. If that is not a viable option, make sure the USB wire is not plugged in when the device boots. By this I mean holding down the lower volume button and initializing the menu that allows you to select Fastboot, Recovery, Factory Reset and other command options. Once the device boots into the menu, you may then plug in the cable and enter Fastboot mode. If none of the above work, let the battery deplete itself until device turns off. Once you have done that, plug it into the wall charger, and then volume down and power up. If the device says something like "reading SD card", disconnect the USB and the menu will fully load. That is when you select Fastboot. Keep the device on, plug it into the pc and send your kernel commands to your device. Ensure that you also erase the cache via Fastboot. Your device should now be fully operational. I hope I was able to help.
Have found myself in a similar position, all the following assumes you're using windows as you desktop OS...
To double check your recovery is broken, get into fastboot mode (power on while holding volume down), use volume down to highlight "hboot" then press the power button to select. Then press volume down to highlight "recovery" and press power button to select. If that works, then recovery is fine, just go ahead as you normally would to recover the system.
If you can't get into recovery then you have a slight problem.
Since you can get the device into fastboot mode, the priority is to get it to talk to your PC. Get the device into fastboot (power on while holding the volume down button). Once you're into fastboot, plug in the USB cable and verify the connection to your device using the following command :
Code:
fastboot devices
This should show you a single entry for your device. If it doesn't show anything, then unplug the device, download the naked driver pack (available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161769) and unpack it into a sensible location. Plug the device back in, if it can't install software automatically or nothing appears you may have to use device manager to update the driver for the device. Find its entry in the device tree (it will probably be listed as an unknown device), RMB on its entry in device tree then select "Update Driver Software..." from the menu that appears, tell it to search automatically then point it at the location where you unpacked the naked driver pack. That should sort out any misconceptions windows has about not being able to talk to the phone.
Once you have fastboot access, you can reflash clockworkmod. You can obtain the latest version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819
flash from fastboot using the command
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
Once flashed, unplug the usb cable.
Use the volume up and down to highlight "hboot" on the fastboot menu, then press the power button to select. Once in the hboot menu, scroll to the "recovery" menu item and press power again to select. You should find yourself in familiar territory at this point.

EDIT : Sorry, it's nearly 2am here, I'm very tired and I've just re-read your initial post. If you've flashed a custom kernel then you MUST have fastboot access (or it's subsequently broken). Download your ROM (if you haven't already got a copy on your PC) and extract boot.img from it. Get into fastboot mode (vol down + power on) and plug into your PC. Do the following :
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot erase cache
Unplug USB cable, use vol up/ down to highlight "REBOOT" then press power to select.If you get stuck in a bootloop, you can try going into recovery via fastboot (select "hboot" from the fastboot menu then "recovery" from the hboot menu), then select "erase cache", then go to "advanced" and "wipe dalvik cache". Then go back and reboot the device. See if that helps. If not, then go back to recovery using the aforementioned method and re-install your rom, then erase cache and wipe dalvik cache.
Thanks for replies.

Yes, I was dumb, started at low battery level, even tho, everywhere says: Make sure you have more than 70 %.
I can't wipe, or install anything, since it's recovery mode that doesn't work
Atm., I charge my phone, because I need to have 10 %, I use "Stuck in fastboot with low battery. Use this BATCH file!" guide. So far it works.

Thank you very much for your answer!!! I read this this guide: 9/6 Mandatory Update Official Clockworkmod Touch Recovery 5.8.4.0.
If that doesn't work, I will take closer look at your reply. No matter what, thank you very very very very much. I'm sure that reply will help some soul outthere (if not me, if it fail).
Thank you guys. You are the best. I will be right back here if I find a solution!
Tip: try 'Quick Boot' available on Google Playstore, it's a payed app but
it let you go straight into recovery mode.

Anyway, after 6 hours work, I finally got it.
I use that guide ^, so I could charge my phone to 10%, and installed new Kernel.

Hey, I am having similar problem with my htc one x here. I did some stupid stuff, tried to install jelly bean and now my device is broken.,
So the thing is, phone is stuck at HTC logo, I cant access recovery mode. And my phone now says tempered and relocked at the top so I cant get it fixed with my carrier which is rogers.
I tried installing RUU for rogers but it says image error and wrong ruu. I can't find the right one and trust me i've searched everywhere.
I can connect my phone to computer and see fastboot usb. But other than that I can't do anything with it.
I tried flashing cwm but it says failed. I'll attach image here with it.
If there is any way to fix it, please help, I just bought this device and I love it, dont wanna lose it.
Also, I read that I can add custom recovery to the phone but without recovery menu I can't do that either.
Thanks!

Hi greet to all,
I bought HTC Wildfire before 3 days it was working perfect just i installed a theme changer application named "SPD Shell" then i restarted my wildfire it came to boot screen and volume keys and power button are not working and i am unable to select any of the option " BOOTLOADER , REBOOT, REBOOT BOOTLOADER, POWER DOWN ". I removed battery then put it back and hold the down volume key and power button it came to HBOOT screen but there too i am unable to select any of the options. My all keys are perfect and not defected. I have so many times flashed roms which upgraded my HBOOT to different version i.e 1.01.0001, 1.01.0002, 0.08.0008 and some thing like this but after all my htc not loaded its OS. I tried to install revolutionary & unrevoked but these software demand to connect phone in charge only mode with pc but i can't load OS so how can i connect my phone in charge only mode. Following are the important details.
Kindly Help me.

What exactly does that mean? You can't select "Recovery" from the Fastboot menu? Can't move between the options with Vol up/down keys? - Bear in mind: from the Fastboot menu you *select* an option by pressing the power button while in Recovery (Clockworkmod) you do it with the trackball...

No i downloaded SPB Shell from another site and it may be incompatible with my HTC Wildfire but i installed it. Yeah i can't select any option from the Fastboot menu, Power and both volume key do not work in fastboot and hboot menu. Recovery option is not available because i have not installed (Clockworkmod Recovery Application) and i can't install it because to install clockworkmod recovery software the mobile is to be attached with pc in charging mod only but my OS is not booting so i cant connect my phone with pc in charg only mode. Please have a look in the bootlader details ganied by fastboot getvar command, there may be some clue about my problem. thnx
I'm pretty sure spb shell didn't cause this, at the end of the day its just a launcher which is very much incompatible with a wildfire. In my eyes the only damage installing an incompatible launcher can cause would be if you have ticked the default setting and rebooted because obviously after the restart it won't work and you would be unable to change the default. It cannot harm your devices hardware buttons especially when the system isn't loaded.
Why you don't have a recovery loaded I just don't understand, you can still use fast boot to flash cwm and then adb command "adb reboot recovery" to enter recovery and try to flash it if the buttons still don't work try an ruu.

3. I have tried to connect phone with pc. I turned on phone so it stuck on the Fastboot screen then i plugged usb cable in the phone and run the exe file from computer "RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTCCN_CHS_2.10.1400.3_Radio_13.53.55.24H_3.35.19.25_release_151119_signed.exe" then installation process started in the computer as well as on the screen of the phone after completion my phone reboots and HTC logo with white background comes and sticks on this screen, I waited about 15 mins but OS didnt start. Then i removed and placed battery so my phone came again on the fastboot screen. I tried to install revolutionary & unrevoked & clockworkmod recovery but these all application required phone to connect with PC in CHARGE ONLY mode but my OS is not starting so i cant connect phone in charge only mode. Only fastboot command is working with the following options " getvar & reboot & devices ". I tried to send file to phone using fastboot command it gave me error [ melformed 1 ]. and adb command is also giving me same response. one more this when i place some files in my SD CARD and place it in my phone and start the phone and comes to hboot menu where my phone scans SD Card for the files " PC49IMG.ZIP PC49IMG.NBH PC49DIAG.ZIP PC49DIAG.NB ". I placed recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.zip file after changing its name to PC49IMG.ZIP in SD Card the booted my phone. My phone scanned PC49IMG.ZIP file but didn't install it.
I hope now everything is clear, and you can help me.........
Try with this PC49IMG.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/?398dklf1uzss5f6
Hopefully that'll work to get recovery, if not I'd try a different ruu next.
In fact you may as well give this a shot too, on your PC click start or the windows orb and type %temp% to open your temp folder, run the ruu and look for some new files appearing in the temp folder. Look through the new folders for a file named rom.zip and drag it to your desktop, this basically contains the whole phones os, bootloader and all. Here you can either rename that zip to PC49IMG.zip and drop it on your SD although it does ask to press volume up to install so that may not work still. You could also try extracting the rom.zip and fastboot flash the files to your phone.
Thanx for your effort. My phone updated from this PC49IMG uploaded by you but after rebooting nothing changed, still same condition. i tried your second advice of rom.zip from temp. I placed rom.zip in my SD CARD after changing its name to PC49IMG.zip then rebooted and installed it but after installation nothing happened my phone came to FASTBOOT screen after reboot.
Did you try adb reboot recovery command?
I'm all out of ideas it seems your boot loader has somehow corrupted I'm pretty sure if you could somehow flash the bootloader or get an ruu to successfully flash it may fix the problem. Only other thing I can think of is a different ruu (eclair ones always seemed to work best for me) if you haven't tried one already.
If you have then maybe its a good excuse for an upgrade....
...
Yes i have tried adb command but it does not work, it says " device not found " because my phone is connected in fastboot screen condition not properly. I think adb required charge only mode from the OS but my OS is not starting. I have installed the following RUU successfully because it's a EXE file so when i run this setup from my computer it identifies my wildfire and install the RUU and it reboots my wildfire after rebooting HTC logo comes with white background but doesn't go ahead and stick on that screen. then i remove battery and place back and turn on again so it comes to fastboot screen.
" RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe "
I don't know how to flash boot loader, waiting for your lead.

I have installed the following RUU successfully because it's a EXE file so when i run this setup from my computer it identifies my wildfire and install the RUU and it reboots my wildfire after rebooting HTC logo comes with white background but doesn't go ahead and stick on that screen. then i remove battery and place back and turn on again so it comes to fastboot screen.
" RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe "
I don't know how to flash boot loader, waiting for your lead.

Try using fastboot to reboot into the the recovery.
I think the command is just "fastboot reboot recovery"

This command is not working giving no any response.
OK try boot the device without the SD card in. Then test and see if the volume buttons work. I have seen an issue similar to this where the SD card was defective and hboot got stuck in a loop when trying to scan it resulting in the buttons appearing not to work.

I have tried without SD card but volume keys not working in fastboot and hboot menu. My Volume key are fine mechanically because i can go hboot menu by holding down volume key + power button.

That is very strange indeed...
Are you running the stock hboot or the revolutionary one?

yeah - very unlikely hardware nor any useful error messages - if flashing PC49IMG.zip files does work there might be hope, though
I am using Stock Hboot not revolutionary. and i have tried PC49IMG.ZIP, my phone updates from this file but after restarting mobile nothing changes. I have only used my phone only one day it's very painful for me.

hm, but as scratch mentioned (if I'm correct I remember that, too) you have to confirm the installation of the PC49IMG.zip (with vol up? - not sure) - so if your volume keys don't work: how do you know the update did work?
My volume keys are perfect but not only working in fastboot n hboot menu. When i place PC49IMG.zip in my SD Card and start the phone by holding down volume key + power button it brings me to HBOOT menu where it stays for a while then starts reading for PC49IMG.zip. After reading it give me the option to " Press Volume up key for update & power button to reboot " then i press VOLUME UP button and it starts updating, after updating it says OK and it tells me to press power button to reboot. After reboot nothing hapens it comes to fastboot screen and still volume keys not working on this screen.
Same here
Hi. I just signed up to post here that SAME ISSUE is happening to me.
I can use volume keys to enter boot screen; but then I am not able to use them to move between the options.
I have an HTC DESIRE device.
Before happening that to me I DIDN'T:
- Upgraded Android OS
- Installed new programs
UPDATED: After sending this post; my device, suddenly, started to shake!!
I had to remove battery to make it stop!

Hi guys again,
This worked for me like charm. Check in Google:
Restarting or factory resetting your phone
I can't put HTML link because of stupid 'no link before 10 posts' policy. Sorry guys, one thing is to fight spam; but this is too much.
Check this section; where it explains how to perform reboot without the need of getting into boot screen:
If you cannot turn on your phone or access the phone settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the buttons on the phone.
Press and hold the VOLUME UP, VOLUME DOWN and END CALL/POWER buttons.
When you see a warning message on screen, press the VOLUME DOWN button to perform the factory reset, or press any other button to cancel the reset.
After factory reset is complete, press the VOLUME DOWN button to restart your phone.
