Hi
I brought a rooted desire a month ago and 2 nights ago it restarted its self and now is stuck on the boot logo. Fastboot and Recovery both go to HTC boot screen and hang there too.
I have tried taking the battery out and leaving it.
I have tried removing the SD card and booting it.
Also from what i can tell usb debugging is disabled in the phone settings...
I Wont try and pretend that i know what i'm doing here i rather out of my depth trying to sort this out so please bear with me,

Not sure if there is an easier solution..But, have you tried unrooting with a RUU?

i haven't tried, can i unroot without a Goldcard?

Only if you have an unbranded Desire.
But..you try the following in Recovery..It may be stuck in a loop and yet communicate with the pc..
Get into recovery (with an sdcard inside), and issue the following command from your PC (You must have the sdk installed and must be the Tools folder:
Code:
adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid>c:\goldcard.txt
start c:\goldcard.txt
A text file opens up with a code. If it does you can make a goldcard now. Use the goldcard tool.
Two options to try solving your problem:
METHOD 1
If goldcard can be created ok, then you may proceed with flashing the RUU. Be careful to use the newest version on shipped-Roms. Older ones can brick your device if it's SLCD. We'll use Method 1 as last resort. Try Method2 first.
Note:
Before you try this out, CREATE A GOLDCARD EVEN IF YOU THINK YOUR DEVICE IS UNBRANDED.
Flashing an RUU always has the potential to softbrick your device. Recovering may be difficult unless you have a goldcard and extensively know some advanced methods to unbrick the device/or willing to research it
METHOD2: FLASHING CLOCKWORKMOD DIRECTLY WITH FASTBOOT (Will work only on rooted ROM. Will need goldcard if branded)
Since your current recovery is corrupted, you can try flashing the Clockworkmod again from Fastboot. In fact, it may be safer to try this option first rather than unrooting.
Download the latest image for Clockworkmod recovery
Rename the ClockworkMod Recovery Image to simply recovery.img.
Boot into the bootloader mode.
Turn the phone off.
Insert goldcard
Press the back button & power at the same, until you are booted into bootloader mode.
Connect the phone to the computer.
On the computer, open the command prompt/terminal & navigate to the Android SDK Tools folder.
Issue the following command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Try Method2 and tell me if it worked for you.

method 2 didnt work
Code:
flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4216 KB)... OKAY [ 0.578s]

Your goldcard must be inside the device. Try again with goldcard? Did you get the CID for goldcard creation. Follow Method 1 till creation of goldcard. Dont run the RUU though

Use the goldcard tool to make it simpler.

Tried Following method 1 but all i get is access denied... Could this be down to USB Debugging not being on?

At what point?
Dont run the RUU. Just issue the code I've written:
adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid>c:\goldcard.txt
start c:\goldcard.txt
Try this from Fastboot and from the stuck recovery screen. What does the textfile display>?

Note that your USB device must get recognized within Windows. After the device is notified as connected in Windows (notification icon and a sound in the PC), To check, type this command and see if it shows a code (the serial of device)"
Code:
adb devices

when i type adb devices it says "list of devices attached" and that's it. Could there be a driver problem or something more sinister?

Your device is not interacting with adb. You could try the following:
Code:
Fastboot devices
If this one works, it's a problem with only adb. More sinister if that is so. Try to boot into Fastboot, Recovery and Simple Boot (See my thread here, and read the part which tells you how to boot into each), and try the adb devices command in each. If it works in any one, get the CID and proceed with goldcard.
If you cant get the CID, you cant get the goldcard. Two solutions exist-1.Use the correct updated RUU and flash to stock. 2.Use Teppic74's guide to downgrade (Search XDA for it) and then flash a lower RUU for your device.
Note that without a goldcard, only the appropriate RUU will work.

fastboot devices gives
Code:
HT05SPL07600 fastboot

Problem with only adb then. See my post and the other thread..

Thank you for your time and help. I sure hope this works

problem fixed unrooted back to stock.

[Q] Cannot access recovery

Guys,
I am lost. I thought I am not stupied, but it seems I am.
Here's the problem:
After flashing a couple of different ROMs somehow I wasn't able to access recovery any more - I always used a batch to load the recovery, I never flashed in permanently. Now I only see the white HTC screen.
So I unrevoked, a new RUU plus rerevoked but both scenarios give the same result: unrevoked it stopping when it should boot in recovery.
Also I used some batch scripts flying around. and the problem should be that it is not possible to write the recovery.
my phone:
BRAVO DVT1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.75.0000
MICORP-031d
TOUCH PANEL SYNT0101
Radio 0-4.05.00.11
Any clue how I can restore recovery???
Thanks in advance.
M

Can you get into fastboot? If you can, go to shipped-roms.com and find your original stock RUU. Connect your phone and place it in Fastboot mode (select Fastboot and wait until it says FASTBOOT USB and run the RUU your phone came with originally). You may need to insert a Gold Card into your phone if you are running a generic one).
I;m just thinking... it could also be a USB brick, see this guide here for a possible fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691187
If i were you, i would steer away from manually accessing recovery using batch scripts/pushfiles, especially when connected via USB, as this can always potentially brick your phone. As you were saying, use unrEVOked with a permanent custom recovery like Amon-Ra, or use ClockworkMod. This will make it virtually impossible to brick your phone.
Hope you get it fixed soon.

You could also try running unroked from a linux live cd. People have less problem running it true linux.

Thank you guys for trying to help.
I installed the RUU from fastboot and still... no recovery in sight. I looked into USB brick as well, but all solutions require a recovery mode - which I don't have. Also I don't this it is a bricked misch partition. But hell, what I know. I just bricked this *****.
After RUU I ran unrevoked again. all fine until booting the recovery: White screen and HTC logo. But at least I have root ;-)
Is it possible that there is something wrong with the rights? I tried:
r5-desire-root/fastboot-mac boot recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
Any clue?
Cheers

Try placing the 'recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img' in the tools folder of the android sdk folder, and then drag the tools folder into terminal and type:
./fastboot-mac boot recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img (to boot the clockwork recovery through fastboot)
or this:
./fastboot-mac flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img (to flash the clockwork recovery through fastboot)
Hope this helps some.

Tried this just now:
./fastboot-mac flash recovery ../recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img

./fastboot-mac boot recovery ../recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img

Does this mean anything to anyone?
Thanks guys...

You are S-on, maybe running alpharev so that you are S-off can help you. But I have no experience with that. If you are S-Off you can use the fastboot commands to push the recovery.

It's possible that the stock RUU you ran earlier may have had an HBOOT update in it forcing s-off to change to s-on, causing the HBOOT to be overwritten.
I s-off'ed not too long ago (i know... i know... it does sound dirty ) and it is a risky procedure as it could end up bricking your phonr entirely if not done correctly. I'm am not certain on what exact procedure to follow on Mac, running Windows 7 here...
If you want to give it a try yourself, you can follow what is suggested in the following guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=805811
This is what i did to security unlock my phone:
I ensured USB Debugging was enabled.
Downloaded this AlphaRev 1.5 HBOOT reflash utility (.iso file)
Important: Before starting this procedure, it is very important that you do not have your phone sync'd to your PC, as you should only connect the phone to the computer when prompted after the .iso is booted.
I burned the .iso to a bootable CD (you can also boot from a DVD disc or USB key).
Note: You may need to change the boot order in your computer BIOS to either boot from a CD/DVD or external device, like a USB key.
I rebooted my computer and booted from the CD I created, and pressed enter at the flashing cursor - you will know that you have successfully booted the .iso as the screen will display some Tiny Core Linux logos. While I waited, I powered on your phone but I made sure that I had not connected it to my PC via USB. After the initial loading, the screen will prompt you to press any key to continue. After this, I was prompted to connect the phone via USB.
Make sure you wait and only connect your phone via USB when prompted on your Mac. When you are ready, connect the phone via USB (while you are doing this, check the status of your phone as you may be prompted to allow super user permissions to continue). During this process, do not interact with your phone and just let it run it's course. Your phone will automatically reboot a few times during the 3 stages, so do not stop the procedure at any cost.
When it is done, go back into the Bootlader and at the top of the screen, it should show the AlphaRev text and s-off.
Next, you will need to flash the custom clockwork recovery here - http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img
Then, simply follow and enter the command I posted above (make sure you place the recovery image in the tools folder of the android sdk folder, and execute the fastboot command via the Terminal) to flash the custom clockwork recovery from fastboot, and it should then hopefully get you back on track.
Let us know how you get on with this. I will keep my fingers crossed for you
Regards,
Mas.

[TUT] Disaster Recovery - How to recover from nearly everything [Updated 28/04/2012]

Due to the lack of time, I cannot update this thread as frequently as I want to, so from now on, please refer to the HTC One X - XDA Developers Wiki
This guide is based on information found in leejames55 HBOOT loop thread and torxx tutorial, I just wanted to make thing clear, simple and consolidate all information in one place for non-dev users. So thanks to them and everyone who contributed.
After seeing alot of people having problem after flashing a rom, restoring RUU, re-locking bootloader, I've decided to make this guide in order to help everyone. If you follow this guide there's a good chance that you will manage to recover your phone
This is for people who have the following problem:
Cannot boot into ROM (e.g Stuck at the HTC Logo)
Boot Loop
Re-locked bootloader while having a non-working ROM
Cannot flash RUU because battery is below 30% - IMPORTANT: You must flash the new version of ClockWorkMod in order to be able to recharge the phone while off and from recovery
The most common problem is being stuck at the HTC Logo after flashing a ROM, try clearing the fastboot cache with these steps:
Power off your phone and hold the power button + volume down
Choose fastboot from bootloader
Connect the phone to your computer
On computer type:
Code:
fastboot erase cache
Choose "Reboot" in fastboot menu
If this doesn't work, try the rest of the guide
If you cannot flash RUU, go into recovery etc. because battery is below 30%
IMPORTANT: You must flash the new version of ClockWorkMod in order to be able to recharge the phone while off and from recovery. So, flash the new recovery and this problem will NOT happen.
ckpv5 said:
I don't think he can do that as more and more people have this problem as stated on OP:
Cannot flash RUU because battery is below 30%
But there is no explanation on how to to solve the problem. All the suggestions are good only when you have at least 20% battery.
So here I want to share on how I solve my problem to get the battery up to at least 20% so that you can fastboot flash anything, but to run RUU you need to have more than 30%. This works for me and hopefully it will work for others too.
Instead of plug in and plug out the usb cable to and from your phone when connected to PC (which actually not working for me), what I did was :
1) connect the phone to PC, your phone will boot into bootloader with red light flashing on and off or all the way red or no light at all.
2) use the vol button to scroll to power down and press power to off.
3) if the phone boot again to bootloader, repeat (2)
4) if the phone not booting, press the power button to on the phone, it will boot to bootloader again. Try the fastboot flash ** (whatever you want to do, either flash unlock.bin to unlock bootloader to flash CWM recovery or relock bootloader and flash stock recovery). If it fails due to low battery, repeat again (2) then (3) and (4). I did this less than ten times to have fastboot flash working.
What I notice is whenever we press power on, it will go to splash screen but unable to pass the bootanimation due to lack of battery, it will go back to bootloader. In the process, the battery get charging but stop when we are in bootloader. So restart again & again (power down in bootloader & power on again) will charge the battery until you have enough juice for fastboot flash.
Note: item (4), I did the fastboot flash ** before power on, it will say "waiting for device", once the phone is on and in fastboot mode, the command will runs. So once the battery reach about 20%, it will runs succesfully.

Well, i discover it because i brick my phone haha now i share it to you.
IF YOU HAVE ANY UNSIGNED RECOVERY:
1.- GO TO RECOVERY
2.- FORMAT SYSTEM
3.- RESTART NORMALLY
4.- YOUR PHONE WILL STOPS IN "HTC QUIETLY BRILLIANT" SCREEN
5.- PUT YOUR PHONE TO CHARGE (no light notification appears)
6.- LET IT CHARGE FOR A COUPLE HOURS (i put mine to charge for a complete night)
7.- Now restore your RUU, Flash, etc...
IF YOU HAVE SIGNED RECOVERY:
1.- GO TO FASTBOOT
2.- HIT "SHUT DOWN"
3.- WITH THE POWER OFF PUT IT TO CHARGE
4.- RED LIGHT NOTIFICATION SHOWS THE CHARGING PROGRESS.
5.- NEXT DAY YOU WILL SEE A SOLID GREEN LIGHT NOTIFICATIONS FOR A COMPLETE CHARGE.

If you re-locked the bootloader
Unlock with the same Unlock_code.bin file provided by HTC and follow this link: http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader/unlock-instructions/page-4/
If you have stock recovery
Download a Custom Recovery (e.g http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1594819)
Then flash it with the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.2.7-endeavoru.img
If you have Custom ROM on or nandroid backup internal SD card
Reboot in recovery (If your still in fastboot, choose "Reboot Bootloader" and then go into recovery)
Restore a Nandroid Backup or flash Custom ROM
Reboot and go into fastboot
Clean cache in fastboot
If you DON'T have custom rom or Nandroid backup on internal SD card
torxx said:
So here a method which always works (many people have issues with flashing RUU's etc. having a bootlop.)
Download a RUU from here, thanks to Football!
Now open the .exe and make sure that it fully started.
Don't click anything, just go to windows icon and search for %temp%.
You will now find some folders, just search through these folders for the ROM.zip.
If you found it, you can copy it to your desktop or somewhere else.
Extract it with WinRar,7-zip or something like that and take the boot_signed.img and system.img.
Now copy the two files into the folder where the fastboot.exe is placed (if you have installed the Android SDK, it should be in platform-tools)
Plug in your One X, go into the bootloader and go into fastboot mode.
Navigate with the cmd in the folder with the fasboot.exe and the two .img's.
Now type in that:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
After that:
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
If everything worked, just reboot:
Code:
adb reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you want to restore to original HTC ROM or have new HBOOT/Radio, you will have to do the step above and then the following:
Flash a ROM and boot image based on 1.26 (e.g ARHD 2.1)
Clear fastboot cache
Code:
fastboot clear cache
Boot your phone
Charge you phone completely
Download stock recovery
Flash stock recovery
Code:
fastboot flash recovery endeavoru_recovery_signed.img
Relock bootloader
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Run 1.26 RUU

If not, what u need to do is flash stock recovery and lock ur device. Then place it on the charger while its off (Fastboot > Power Off). Let it charge (higher than 30%) and download and run RUU for your device.

S-OFF, really?
BTW, your device is not bricked, if you can enter the bootloader..

Bricked HTC One X :( Help please

Ok, so basically, I formatted everything on the phone like a douche, and its stuck on the HTC Quite Brilliant screen.
I tried using fastboot and adb, but it shows "device not found" even though the drivers are saved.
Any clue?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

you need to flash a stock RUU. im not sure what development is like for the one X, id assume not alot yet. you need to either flash a fully stock RUU or someones backup. i feel for you bro, ive never fully bricked a phone but i DID format every partition on my intercept once, and i fixed it through a custom recovery flash of a stock rom, samsung is nothing like htc though....

Thanks for your help though guys, its really appreciated.

Try clearing the cache and then doing that again.
"fastboot erase cache"
then do your recovery.

Just tried that, still no luck.
Same thing happens.

Did that as well bro :/
I'm on a different computer to see if itll work on here.

Have you try flashing RUU when fastboot boot recovery.img seems not working for you ?

Do you have any instructions I can follow?

(Even though some people may not agree with this, but this will bring no harm and it is noob-proof) do this:
1- flash a stock recovery.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
2- flash a stock boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
3- re-lock bootloader
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cache
4- flash RUU
You must have the official RUU for your phone, stock recovery and stock boot.img.
Do you have the RUU ? You need to know which is the right RUU for you. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604 to look for one.

I will try this when I get home
Whether this works or not I would love your PayPal email address please.
Just for your effort in trying to help me so much I just HAVE to pay you back.
Thanks so much again.

Have you manage to solve your problem ?
You don't have to pay me back, I'm always happy when I manage to help others.
And because of some request for my PayPal email address, first time after four years with XDA, I put the "donate to me" box, but you don't have to
EDIT: Are you still on stock ROM before the brick ? If yes, you don't have to do all the step, just flash RUU.

Gotcha, didnt even see the donate box
When I tried RUU'ing, it gave me an error.
Error 131: customer ID error
And I was on a stock rooted ROM before the brick.

Which RUU are you trying to use? And which software version were you on when you bought it?

I was trying to using this one:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_H3G_UK_1.26.771.2_Radio_1.1204.90.13H_release_251403_signed.exe 601.21 MB 1 week, 3 days ago
and see that I dont know, I literally had the phone in my hand for 5 minutes.. Just bought it off of a member here and opened the box to format and wipe data on everything, as I do to every phone, but I didnt know you couldnt mount sd in recovery on this phone yet

Can you go to bootloader and see what is your radio version ? And the hboot too.
Maybe it helps to determine which RUU is the correct one for you

Person I bought it from said he bought it from Expanys USA.
The HBOOT version is 0.43.0000
RADIO: 1.1204.90.13H

BTW, I flashed the stock recovery and relocked the bootloader but i didnt flash the boot.img
I have no idea where to get it from.

hey dude whats your cid for your Phone?
U have to use the correkt ruu matching your cid, or else ruu installation will be abortet!
how to check the cid:
in fastboot whith usb type "fastboot getvar cid"
if this is not working try this:
enter "adb shell"
now enter "getprop ro.cid"
android sdk should be installed to make use of the second option getting the cid.
After that you should search for the correct ruu matching this cid.
If u got it, first thing to do ist installing stock recovery. U cant get the recovery here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24777223&postcount=163
flash it via fastboot typing "fastboot flash recovery stockrecovery.img"
after that u have to relock your phone using the comand "fastboot oem lock"
now leave your phone in fastboot usb mode and try to start the ruu installer from your desktop pc
now it should work if u have the correct matching ruu

[Q] Help rooting Wildfire S please

Hi All
Spent most of yesterday trying to root the good lady's phone, using http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1195275 Much more difficult than I thought! I have got as far as having unlocked the bootloader but when I try Flashing the Custom Recovery UI, I get "CID incorrect" Researched what this meant and have now managed to create a goldcard and have tried again with this card fitted in the phone but nothing seemed to happen so I copied the PG76.IMG file on to the sd card and tried again. This time I get some action the message i get is "Main version is older", please see attached image if anyone can help me out I would be most grateful. Many thanks.

Since you have unlocked it, download the recovery image of CWM and the root.zip. Then, considering you have the fastboot files, type
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
Then boot into recovery and flash the root.zip from there. I'll give you more detailed instructions tomorrow, if you need them, since I'm on my phone now.

Hi Tyr Fifteen thanks for coming back to me. I have the files on the PC I am connected to and when I run the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
the cmd window shows waiting for device and sits at that for ages >10 minutes?
The phone is telling me that it is in HBOOT USB PLUG highlighted in blue and also says FASTBOOT the same with a blue background. If I kill the cmd nothing still happens at the phone screen. Your help is much appreciated thanks.

After it shows HBOOT USB PLUG, it's highlighting FASTBOOT right? Press power and enter Fastboot mode.
The HBOOT USB PLUG should change to FASTBOOT USB. If it remains FASTBOOT, (re)install the drivers. It's waiting for the device to be in fastboot, it wont work in HBOOT mode.

I guess I must have not known that I needed to press the power button, the guides for rooting all assume a lot of knowledge that the new user needs, but does not have. Is there a guide that hand holds you through the whole process. I will try again when I have access to the phone this evening. If I do need to install the drivers, is there a guide I can refer to please?

For the drivers download and install htc sync. Then uninstall htc sync, if you wish. That's all. But since it shows HBOOT usb plug, I think the drivers are already installed.

Hi Tyr Fifteen
I seem to go from one issue to another, on a positive note you were right about the drivers as the phone was waiting to be in fastboot, when I hit the power button it went ahead and pushed the recovery image to the phone, at last! Now I show recovery version 5.0.2.8 and when I select "install zip from sdcard" I just see the CWM bowler hat and nothing happens? In fact CWM recovery does not respond if I select any of the options in the menu. I have to take out the battery before I can restart as normal. Any ideas please? Please see enclosed pictures showing menu and result of selection of any item

Maybe you should try it again I used this utilitie to root my phone a long time ago. It worked great.

I came across this tool before but as there was no info on how to use it, i did not bother. How is the phone connected and what are the prerequisites etc. Do I connect to the phone by usb and then put the phone in fast boot usb and run the batch file in the tool?

Connect your phone with your computer, activate usb-debugging in your setting and than start the "one click.bat". I hope, i could help.

Hi
I have just managed to download the correct Recovery image as suggested and it appears to have installed correctly.
Code:
c:\WFS>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4494 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.700s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 2.200s]
finished. total time: 3.900s
I have then removed the battery for a couple of minutes, restarted while holding down the volume minus.
I get the white screen showing hboot at the top highlighted in blue and fastboot highlighted in blue further down.
The sd card is then checked? and I can then select recovery and press the power button.
I then wait for the recovery options but all I am seeing is a white screen saying HTC followed by a black screen with all the four screen button lights on?
There is no mention of any recovery options at all.
Has something gone horribly wrong?

When did you buy the phone? I guess its 2012... Because that model is nasty. You need to flash a modified recovery for it. Search a topic in general section I think. You can't flash cm ROMs. only stock based ROMs, sadly. However, there are few 2012 lucky guys who can. Try that recovery and try installing cm9 or 10. If it works, good for you, and if it doesn't, oh well.
Good luck.

Just tried One Root for WFS and this is what I got

DO NOT USE THE POWER BUTTON TO SELECT. Please use the Search button instead of the Power button.
Now choose Install Zip from Sdcard then select root.zip. Press yes.
Press any key to continue . . .
You are now ROOTED. Lets grab a beer and get drunk. lol xD
Press any key to continue . . .
Now you can press the power button :)
Press any key to continue . . .
I guess the permission denied is because the sd card already has root.zip on it?
Can you tell me what the boot.img file is?
I guess my phone is not getting to recovery as I do not see any of the options for choosing the root.zip file at all.

Success
