[Q] Big Problems - Cannot get the phone to work - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all
I have tried to install a new ROM but was not successful, and now when I try to get back to the ROM I had before (restore) I am not getting anything in the menu and no reception.
So at the moment I have this in the BootLoader
BRAVO UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.75.0000
MICROP-031D
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2
Mar 5 2010,21:12:15
Now this is not the first time I am flashing a new ROM, and normally I had no problems but I tried the Sensation with my Pays FROYO ROM and after booting, it gets stuck on the with screen.
I tried to follow some tutorials but cannot manage to get any to work.
This is what I am doing
1) Recovery
2) (after the black screen with red arrow, I press the vol up button and power)
3) I go into the green screen
4) wipe data/factory reset
5) nandroid
6) restore
7) i choose the latest restored rom
but this does not load properly, after restoring, I get no options when clicking the menu button, and no reception.
Any help will be very much appreciated since I ran out of ideas what to do.
Thanks a lot

Are you able to get into recovery? Use the volume down key while in hboot to highlight recovery and the power button to select it.

this might not be the best answer, but if it doesn't get past the mytouch screen.. even if you hit recovery.. send it to tmobile for defective phone. I think..

i never did a nand backup... but i did find a a stock nand backup from another thread on here, but have no clue how to go about doing it.. especially since every solution i find here requires the phone too be rooted previously or able too be rooted.

Try copying ESPRIMG.zip, available in the rooting guides, to your root of your sd card and booting into hboot. It should ask you if you want to flash it and select yes and see if it boots then

Hey all, sorry to revive a pretty old thread, but I'm in the same predicament. I went ahead and tried to copy ESPRIMG.zip back into the slide, but after using HBOOT, I get the attached screenshot, or the following text:

Your trying to flash the eng rom, what you want to flash is the champion build, and most likley, its water damage, I had this issue when my phone fell in the pool, it took 2 weeks, but it finally started to work again ;-)

No dice on an unrooted phone. I guess my 3G Slide is bricked... anybody want a 3G Slide?

I too am stuck at a cyanogen (mod 7) screen. Using 'Rom manager' i attempted to go from cm 6.1.1 to the latest CM 4 but failed to wipe memory. Now i cannot even get into recovery or bootloader... nothing i try will get me out of the cyanogen start screen (blue skateboarding android dude with circling arrow). I've copied esprimg.zip to the sd card but still no luck. Is there anyway to enter the phone prior to the cyanogen start up screen and wipe the memory. If I could get to bootloader or recovery then I can fix this thing... HTC slide... anyone with an idea? Thank you

Pull battery, and then hold Volume Down + Power doesn't get you into bootloader? If not try Back Button + Power, should get you to fastboot. From there you can get into the bootloader.
Thank you
finally after letting the phone sit for about 45 min in its hung mode i did as you suggested, removed batt, inserted and quickly held pwr and vol down. the phone went into bootloader. I was able to clear all mem and go into recovery. I loaded cm 6.1.1 from my backup and can now sleep tonight all while I kick myself for not clearing mem before attempting a ROM upgrade. Thank you for the quick assist. Best Rgs

Glad that you got your phone back and functioning again!
BTW CM7 nightly is running smooth and fine here. I guess either you didn't wipe before flashing CM7 or you didn't update the radio to the latest one?

[Q] bootloop and stuck at htc logo

Hello everybody,
I hope some one can help me to unroot my phone.
The problem with my desire is that the volume down button is broke even as the trackpad button and the menu botton. Strange is that, when my phone is working, the worked in any menu but not in the home menu.
Because my phone is rooted i decided to unroot it to send it back to htc. And thats where the BIG problems begin.
i followed the unroot method by the fastboot method. Did worked i see the progress bu after that nothing happens. its stays hanging at the htc logo and after a while it reboot.
the ruu i used is RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed
Now i can go to Fastboot menu with back en power button, but is not possible anymore to go to recovery. If i choice recovery, its boots and stays again on the htc logo for a while and reboots again.
So conclusion, when i push the power button= i see the htc logo and it reboots
in fastboot menu the only choice is bootloader and then fastboot. recovery is not possible ( unroot is succesful?)
what is see is:

[Q] Can't root and can't recovey

Hy,
I have a problem with my Desire.
A few week's ago the phone just start restarting when i use the internet browser, and get stuck when try to restart. I have to get out the battery and restart it.
I was to the place from where i bought and they told make me an HW reset. I make it right there, and surprise after 2 days it has the same problem without installing any software.
I try to make an root with unrevoked but on the second reboot the phone stuck in the boot screen. The unrevoked app "wait for reboot". I had to get out the battery.
I try a few more times but without success. In one of the times when i tried i got from app "Internal error: failed to unlock NAND flash".
My phone is still S-ON. After all of this I tried an recovery but i got a black screen with a red triangle and an exclamation icon.
What a should do?
Thank you!

To get to the alternate recovery;
First go to Normal recovery (Red Triangle) by maintaining Vol Down + Power
and then press Vol Up + Power
This will bring you to another recovery menu where you can : Reboot , Flash from sd , Wipe Data/factory ,Wipe Cache
This will allow you to recover/flash.
When I pressed Vol Up + Power I got
"E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command" It's normal?
and a menu with:
Reboot system now
Applay sdcard:update.zip
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
If I press "Wipe data/factory reset" I get the following:
7 x No
1 x Yes -- delete all user data
3 x No
It's normal?
Thank you!
yes, it's a normal menu. Exactly like I told you.
The apply SDcard Update.zip, is assumed to be the flash update you downloaded recently.
Thank you!
Can you told me why I can't root my phone.
In the first post I attached a print screen with the feedback from the method flash with AlphaRev.
Thank you!
That's S-Off not rooting

The print screen what you have post in the first post is the procedure of S-OFF your phone...
S-OFF is used to resize nand partitions, not for flashing a room... For roms like DATA2SD, DATA2EXT, DATA2WE you don't need to be S-OFF!
READ THIS BEFORE POST:
ROOT TUT here you will find all the information - how to root and flash a rom!
I will retake this post for not starting another one.
Like I said in the first post:
"A few week's ago the phone just start restarting when i use the internet browser, and get stuck when try to restart. I have to get out the battery and restart it.
I was to the place from where i bought and they told make me an HW reset. I make it right there, and surprise after 2 days it has the same problem without installing any software."
I finally root my phone an I installed GingerVillain 2.0, and I have the same problem. .
Another thing that I observed it's that when the phone restarts it tries to boot, it restarts again (not all the time makes a second restart).
Thank you!

Wildchild v3.3 ROM issues

Alright guys,
I've recently changed from Cyanogenmod 7 to Wildchild v3.3 and am having substantial issues trying to remove it. When booting without being plugged in, the boot animation plays non-stop (not quite a bootloop). When plugged in it boots normally but when unlocked it will not display the home screen and will remain black with the status bar at the top. This is accessible and so are basic functions.
I cannot use the keyboard as it does not display, all apps wont load and force quit and personalisation in the settings menu is borked too.
I understand I've loaded a dodgy ROM so lets steer clear of that. but now I cannot boot to bootloader or recovery mode, even with fast boot turned off. I can however boot the safe mode. If anyone can point me in a direction of how to flash a new ROM remotely or find a back door to recovery mode. That would be just swell
Cheers boys.

I think u need to reflash recovery. Also format the system, data partition manually after u flashed recovery. Wipe data, dalvik, battery stats and install again. Are u s on or s off u, need to post these specifications when posting problem.
The plugin boot thing only happens if u flashed wrong ruu. Anyways first do the above thing and also let us know ur specifications.

Dont panic. You can flash via adb. You are s-on and nothing can go wrong. You should not have entered into the safe mood. Because it by definition would try to restore original htc recovery that is it has already killed the custom recovery. Its no big problem. If u flash recovery it will be ok.
Just install android sdk tool and flash custom recovery. I guess its already installed if u have rooted ur phone yourself. If not wait a little. I gotta search for the post with which i enabled adb. Wait OK? Did U apply any RUU?
Edit: Are U sure that u cant enter into hboot mode means after turning phone off if u press vol down+ power nothing happens???
Edit: See this video and follow the instructions And flash recovery with help from here no.4 read the full post to be safe.

Well do I need a RUU to get cyanogenmod?
Nope.... When removed battery and power and vol+ pressed, It just boots to the boot animation. Ill try flashing another recovery and get back?

I've tried both now and it just boots to safe mode, there are no additional details on start up, only the boot animation. Which runs for AGESSS. Still can only access settings and phone, keyboard doesn't work and cant access apps or home screen.
What should i do now?
Edit: If I just start from scratch with unlocking the bootloader, would that work?

1. Download the attched file. Put it in your memorycard.
2. Press and hold Power with volume down pressed for 5 seconds
3. Wait while it completes loading, it will ask in the screen, press volume up.
4. Remove the PG76IMG.zip from memorycard.
5. Now again Press and hold Power with volume down pressed for 5 seconds and select recovery from the screen (select using vol up & down, select using power.) You should be in the recovery.
If it does, its fixed. U can flash new roms, instructions should be in the rom posts. Look in development section.
Edit: If U see ***LOCKED*** above MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL in your HBOOT screen, means U need to unlock ur bootloader. In that case I'm pretty sure U had applied wrong RUU. Anyways that can also be fixed with some extensive research....
im pretty sure if your s-on it will not allow you to flash the wrong ruu. but sounds like you had a borked recovery, reflashing recovery than your chosen ROM should fix it.

[Q] Stuck on HTC Boot Screen

Hi everyone...
Complete ageing newbie here so please be gentle.
I've just been given a HTC Desire that can't seem to get past the boot screen.
By doing a bit of research, here's what I know about the phone. The bootloader has been unlocked and it's been rooted. It also has a ROM called MildWild installed I believe.
I have manged to access recovery mode and it says it is running ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0
If I attempt to activate any of the options in recovery, i.e. 'wipe cache partition', I get taken to a screen showing half an orange circle wearing a top hat if that means anything to anyone.
It doesn't actually do anything else from this point and if I press the power button it just takes me back to the list of options to reboot, apply update from sdcard etc.
That's about as much as I can tell you I'm afraid and was wondering if anyone could help me to get the phone working again.
Many thanks in advance.
I
When using that recovery, press the middle button to select options not the power button.
If you are s-off, I recommend you flash 4EXT recovery touch via fastboot, it's better overall.
Use bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of q&a to get it booting again. You may simply need to full wipe and flash a new ROM. Check hboot and sdcard partition requirements foot each ROM first.
