I installed a neondroid theme from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=554028 from the SD card through recovery mode, rebooted my phone, and it won't boot to the wallpaper.
It's supposed to show the joker with s-off on it for a few seconds then go off then my network provider shows then my wallpaper.
It just stays at the joker then a black line appears on screen.
Any ideas how I can get my phone functioning again??
img flashing won't work as i get a CID error, just in case anyone suggests anything. I don't know how to overcome this cid error.

Reboot into recovery, go to mounts and storage and ersae everything apart from sdcard, then restore backup. Should fix it.
I have no recovery file. Is there a copy somewhere i could use?
You should always work with backup in the recovery, before flashing anything.
One thing you might try: Get the zip of your current ROM (not the Theme) and flash it right over...
And be patient: first boot always takes some time.
To get rid of of the cid error, you need either create goldcard with ubuntu or use the appropriate ruu from your provider (make sure this one is not too old).
Which rom are you running? As far as I understand, this theme is for only cyanogenmod 4.0.4.

A few days ago a mate of mine employed me to help him root his new toy. After doing mine multiple times (for various reasons) it was supposed to a piece of cake.
My method (I may have missed a point or two but you get the main idea):
1. Unrevoked
2. Install Titanium Backup, full backup
3. Copy entire SD contents
4. Install Rom Manager / Partition SD Card
5. Copy rom over to SD Card and install
6. Upgrade radio
7. From rom restore stuffs and go nuts
(optional but wanted to do)
8. S-OFF via bootable USB stick
Anyway turns out almost every step of the way was hampered because of new hardware. Here's the HBoot screen details:

For anyone else that has a desire with these specs please save yourself a lot of time and "oh ****" moments and know the following:
- Clockwork recovery will not work, you need to flash ArmonRa via the SDK with fastboot.exe OR via Unrevoked, before plugging in your phone go File > Choose alternate recovery and link it to AmonRa which you downloaded.
- Rom manager will not work (as it relies on ClockworkRecovery)
- SD Card partitioning and Upgrading to EXT3 needs to be done in AmonRa Recovery.
- Current S-OFF methods will not work and will send black lines across your HTC Boot splash screen. S-OFF tool reports failure at step 3. Ripping the battery and then restoring via recovery is the only fix.
Cheers.

Sounds bad...But it should not take much time till there is a working solution for this
i have that type of desire.
and i have encounter no problem on rooting unrevoked /s-off with alphaville 1.5
i have used various roms (auraXsense and hd roms Rcmix, ownhere dhd)
used amonra and clockmodwork....at least 30 times
i have used 3,4 radio versions and upgraded to the latest 5.11.05.27
everything works and stable with richard v5f kernel and rcmix 14 + set cpu....
and they are working.
it is exactly your specification
except that now mine is S-off.
spec seems the same except
Bravo Pvt3 ship S-off but maybe is from the s-off procedure

really i do not know if it was before pvt4 or what pvt3/4 means...
anyway i want to know considering maybe i will encounter future desire and maybe you are right... and it is possible that they are not working.
you cold try a Ruu update and try again the all process maybe something went wrong somewhere
You not seen the rather LARGE thread in General about this??
I have the same specs on my Desire and the latest clockwork(2.5.1.2) works. I'm not S-Off.
I flashed 6-7 roms with no problems.
I didn't use RomManager,so I don't know, but partitioned the sd card from recovery, under advanced options with no problems.
Only happens on some PVT4 devices (two different types), and there is already a thread about this.
My PVT4 has clockwork, S-OFF, root, custom splash1, etc.

Yea there is definitely a new model i have the same problems. Clockwork Recovery dont work only Amon Ra and Alpharev dont work either. Stops at step 3 everytime saying:
"Could not push the initial files during step 1. this is most likely a permissions error on your data partition.
We have tried our best to circumvent this, but most likely your ROM is either not rooted properly, causing failure.
Your best option is to backup everything, and flash a custom ROM that is properly rooted and has ADB root.
Remember: your HBOOT is NOT S-OFF, and it is not bricked."
I am having to create a goldcard to revert my Desire back to factory rom due to a munted update of 2.29.
The phone is locked in the boot cycle but gets no further. Trying to go into recovery brings up the red triangle then pwr + vol up brings the message: E: Can't Open /cache/recovery/command
So....
Im trying to build a goldcard to restore to factory ROM but I cant boot into the phone to read the CID of the SD card!
Im using OSX 10.6.5 and cannot find anything that tells me how I can do this.
Can anyone help or maybe even tell me another way to recover my phone?

Can i try to downgrade HBOOT and flash Stock Froyo RUU?
Update on this issue
Hi,
I tried to S-OFF using revolutionary 0.4pre4 windows, but the phone is not recognised in fastboot usb mode and i get the message "waiting for device...."
Is this phone bricked?
Thanks and regards,
Aravindan
depends on rom. maybe you have to partion your sd 1. partiton fat32 and 2. partition ext3 or ext4 (ca 1,5 GB; min 1GB max 2GB) for dalvik cache to sd
Check this guide if you haven't seen this yet.

Thanks stankyou.
Yes, i tried my options based on that post.
My Phone had stock rom Gingerbread 2.3.3 with S-ON.
I tried flashing the Stock ROM and it went through fine no errors throughout the process.
But once the phone rebooted after flashing, it was still boot looping.
My phone is recognized on my laptop at HBOOT menu but when it goes into fastboot it is not recognized.
Refridgerator trick?

Update: It did not work :-(
Having trouble with my DHD at the moment.
Tried updating my 4EXT Recovery and now for some reason the phone boots the stock recovery screen. This is the black screen with a picture of a phone and a red triangle with an exclamation mark on it.
So I thought the best thing to do would be flash a whole new recovery onto the phone.
I can get in to H-Boot and BootLoader, but am having problems flashing a recovery.
Not the most knowledgeable with this sort of thing tbh, so this is where i need help.
I have tried downloading a version of 4EXT Recovery (not sure if i'm using the right one or not) and a ClockwordMod Recovery, placing on the root of the SD card and renamed to PB99IMG.zip (is this correct?) But the H-boot doesn't install it.
Here are the details i can provide:

If anyone could tell me what i'm doing wrong or what to use instead it would be a great help!
Try renaming that file to pd98img.zip, reboot into bootloader, and when it asks you if you would like to update with the pd98img file select yes, and see if it works.
