Tried vol down and power? Will boot into bootloader.

Your phone isn't bricked. Its in debug mode. Pull battery and do volume down + power to see if you can get into the bootloader, if you can you aren't bricked, load up an RUU and you should be good.

Not sure as i cant see the screen... I press it and it vibrates... did some more digging and found this-http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8960978&posted=1#post8960978
would this fix it? would it hurt to try?

Did you try a battery pull? Try that and then volume down and power.

Yes if you have an SLCD this is your problem. When you downgrade to 2.1 you have no drivers for your screen. Pull the battery, hold down and then hit power. Set your phone down for 10 minutes or until hboot loads. Make sure that you have this PB31IMG.zip in the root of your sd and then upgrade it. It took a while for my hboot to load. So give it some time. If that doesn't work try booting with trackball and power.

How do I know what kind of screen I have?

and where do i get an ruu?

Good luck with this one guys... lol. I commend you!

This is the ruu EXE. I dont know quite whether it works for SLCD, but its a resource.

If you recover by loading the PB31IMG in hboot, you'll need to also format your SD card to FAT32 if it isn't already. Might be a slight point of contention if you don't have a USB card reader or another device which can interface the card with a PC.
Might be easiest to run the RUU on a Windows computer. Link above looks perfect, it's the latest.
Download to PC, hook up phone via USB cable and lanuch the RUU program then follow instructs. I despise HTC Sync but in this case, might be easiest to go ahead and load it to your PC before you run the RUU. It'll allow the RUU to function properly (all this all assumes Windows). I'd delete HTC Sync when done if it were me. It can be problematic in other regards.

I am 99% sure that the phone dosent boot past hboot... so the above method wont work correct?

The 2 ways to do it are:
1.) go into hboot and have the PB31IMG already on your SD card. Once in hboot, it should recognize the PB31IMG and you press volume up to load. However, as mentioned it'll likely fail if you have not formatted your card to FAT32 at some point.
2.) Forget about hboot. Pull your batt, replace it and start the phone even though you can't see what's up. You should feel it vibe and in reality it's working, you just can't see anything on the screen due to the lack of drivers as previously mentioned. So hook up phone to USB port on PC and with HTC Sync installed, launch the RUU you downloaded from 3 posts up. It runs on Windows and loads the software to the phone via the USB charging cable.

I have grown tired of these downgrade posts on multiple forums. Instead of writing a "how to" in 50 posts I have made one
You downgraded, welcome to the land of suck.
And OP you phone does boot and works quite well minus the screen. To prove the point boot it up and call it.

OP,
Go with Doug's link. Great description and is using the same files already posted here. Just much better instructs to follow.

Alright thanks trying that now

Follow my earlier post. I posted a link to the zip you need. If you need more help e-mail me at [email protected].

the ruu didnt work error 117... would it help if i uses xp?

Do you have SLCD or Amoled screen? Also, if you used 3.22 you might have to get your own recovery. Download ROM manager from the market and install Clockwork Mod.

[Q] Desire bricked for good?

Hi all,
I think I killed my desire. It was on three network and I managed to root it and installed Oxygen. I used the phone for about one week before I started having withdrawal symptoms in hot having the sense UI. Okay call me whatever you like but I like that UI.
Now for the problem…. I wanted to put a stock rom on it again and read a lot before doing that.
Downloaded an unbranded RUU that didn’t want to load because of the Customer ID being wrong. Read a bit more and found that I had to go back to the three ROM instead. Okay downloaded that and all seemed fine the phone was being flashed. After a minute or so the process stopped with an error message that something wasn’t right with the bootloader.
Not being able to find anything related to this kind of problem I ended up taking the battery of the phone and now all is black. I cannot get anything to work on it. Nothing happens when I hold down the volume – key plus power.
My PC still sees the phone as My Android in the device manager.
When removing the battery and putting it back in and pressing the power button the phone vibrates but nothing else. Not even the LED is lit when connected to the PC via USB cable.
Is this a lost case?
Please help
Regards
PS I have tried all mentioned on this post but I cannot the adb command to find my device

Hi yes it was S-off as I had to put it in that state otherwise I couldn't flash Oxygen it would let me.
About different Hboot I have no idea, The problem is that I cannot get anything out of the phone. maybe I'm doing something wrong? The phone now as I left the battery out the whole night it started charging again. well... the orange light comes on when connecting it to the PC, but screen still all dark, but as soon as I press the power-on button it's gone and stays off.

Hi that's good news but how did you flash the phone in that state? everytime I try the RUU exe doesn't find the phone. And yes I still have a goldcard for this phone if that's of any help?

If you've got a goldcard, try flashing the WWE RUU in fastboot mode.
The RUU you want is 2.29.405.2 or 2.29.405.5.
To get into fastboot - power and back key.
EDIT - which RUU have you tried? Sounds like it was a very old one.

Hi thanks for your reply
RUU_Bravo_H3G_UK_1.20.771.3_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_124822.exe
RUU_Bravo_H3G_UK_1.22.771.1_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.0 6.00.02_2_release_127568_signed.exe
one of these two. But my fear is that it hasn't finished to flash it till the end or if it did I had that error message.
Ho do I know that it is in that mode? is there anything or the PC I can through at it to acknowledge that mode?
Or is it only when I trying to flash the RUU?

When you are in fastboot mode, you have a white screen with three androids at the bottom. Beside some other informations you should see the word "FASTBOOT" in red highlighted letters.
Why did you posted these two old ruus? Is h3g your provider? The latest ruu by htc can be downloaded here:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
Download this ruu, boot your phone into fastboot mode and connect your phone to your computer. Instead of "FASTBOOT" you should see "FASTBOOT USB". Then run the downloaded ruu on your computer and follow the instrucions.

yep just tried it again.
I start the RUU exe the later of the two you recommended and it doesn't find the phone error 170.
Still no joy. nevertheless the PC does do the usual sound when a USB device is connected as soon as I press the power and back button.

Installed all drivers correctly:
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
Is htc sync installed?
If yes, uninstall ONLY htc sync software (NOT the drivers).
Now reboot your computer.
If not, install it. Then follow the steps for "if yes,...".
After rebooting is finished, try to flash the ruu again.

thanks again trying it now....

hummm still nothing this is what I do
- remove the battery
- unplug the SUB cable
- I already had those drivers installed. My device manager shows under the Android Phone: Android bootloader interface (is this what I should have?)
- put the battery back in and plug the cable
- press the back button and whilst that press the power-on until windows goes ding-dong....
- run the RUU and tick the boxes and hit next twice and the RUU launches adb.exe (I can see this in the windows task manager...
- the RUU exe eventually gives up
any mistakes?
EDIT I uninstalled HTC sync as recommended but not HTC BMP USB Driver and not HTC Driver Installer

if I do fastboot devices from the command line it odesn't find my desire. on the other hand if I put my wife's in fastboot the fastboot command does find it. I guess there is everything fine with the drivers and software on my PC. it must be the phone that has been left in a state that is unrecoverable. Any further tips or tricks or should I just for get about and and sell it as for spares?

if I follow the fastboot screen on my wife's Desire and press the volume rocker to go to recovery and press the power button the phone vibrates and the PC shows it as My HTC instead of the Android Bootloader interface. it looks like in the back ground is all there but why isn't the phone recognised?

Not sure if this means anything or can help but as I put the phone into recovery mode ADB can now see it. doing adb devices I can see an alphanumerical value followed by recovery
what can I do from here?running the RUU rom does still not do anything in this mode.

Sounds to me like you may have SLCD brick, is your desire slcd?

As above. It seems like you've flashed an old ruu for an amoled phone.
Try flashing the WWE RUU using the PB99IMG.zip method perhaps. A quick search should find some posts about what to do

Hi Chaps
I'm still confused. okay I extracted the rom and renamed it. I did this from the RUU that wasn't my original one. I guess this is still wrong right? But having the PB99IMG.zip file on the goldcard root should do the trick or does this only work with the original RUU ROM? I have downloaded RUU_Bravo_Froyo_H3G_UK_2.25.771.1_Radio_32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14_release_149217_signed
should I use this ROM instead?
and how to I flash the phone now? Please remember that I cannot see anything on screen.
Do I hold down vol down and press power? do I need to do anything else?
what is the exact sequence of buttons as I cannot see what I'm doing.
Does the battery also need to be above a certain charge for this to work? again I wouldn't see any error messages!
thanks

[Q] Help: My DHD doesn't boot

Hi all.
First of all I'm french so sorry if my English goes wrong.
Good reading.
I'm posting there because my DHD doesn't want to boot anymore: impossible to get something on the screen...
=> No boot, no bootloader, nothing.
The whole story: I bought my Desire 1 year ago, simlocked by my carrier (SFR).
Everything was going good: root, unsimlock and all this kind of stuff.
My Repair Warranty (the one from the store, not from HTC) was ending on February 5th, so I decided to bring my Phone there because the Volume button was unstuck.
Back from the repair center (HTC SFR FRANCE), they changed the whole body of the device but also the battery
Why: I don't know.
But the whole point is that they updated the device to Android 2.3.5 (3.13), which is the last update from my carrier with Sense 3.0... Bye bye Virtuous Quattro!
It was simlocked again and it was impossible to use my phone.
I decided to make all the stuff again to get it work: root, unsimlock, S-OFF...
It was impossible to Downgrade to 1.32.
After creating the GoldCard and put the image on the SD, while trying to "install" it, the bootloader was displaying Incorrect CID and fail...
I tried again 2 times, thinking that I did a wrong manipulation: same result.
At the third fail, I turned off the phone (Press "Power" to power off in the BootLoader). And then impossible to turn it back on.
At the beginning the LED was blinking when it was connected into an USB port or while charging it.
But then nothing. At all.
Sad to say it but my DHD seems to be bricked now...
I tried to get to the bootloader, to make a Soft Reset ( Volume Down + Volume Up + Power ), to take out the battery for a long time, to charge it up with differents adaptators/cables (but not with an other battery).
I think that this is a battery problem. Shoul I order an other one to test?
What do you think?
Thanks,
Arnaud.
PS: I noticed something weird in the battery "case". Like if the bottom of the hole wasn't replaced. We can see the internal wires an components inside the device...
Is it normal? Is it the same on your phone?

First of all, stop pushing all the buttons as it will most likely do nothing. To enter hboot is Vol down + Power and nothing else before, in between, or after.
Check this thread out CAREFULLY and follow the steps. This is a no fail tool, and unless you do something wrong in the process, the result will by default be success.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1259821

i would try another battery.. they arent that expensive
and no its not normal to see wires and stuff so you should assemble it correct..
this video might give you an idea on how to..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfatoeWbMRk
and no need to unlock the bootloader with tools any more
htc har released unlocked bootloader for desire hd
http://htcdev.com/
then you only have to set s and r off

Thanks for the answers.
I ordered a battery. I will let you know!
I will try the AAHK tommorow!
Thanks a lot,
Arnaud.

But I don't think you really understood my problem.
I can't boot! So how do you want me to use AAHK?
EDIT: by the way I managed to get the LED blinking 4 or 5 times while connecting the phone to my pc. But that's all.

Totally bricked?

Okay, I tought i just could RUU my phone using RUU file. So I downloaded RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe and booted to fastbood mode -> connected USB -> ran RUU. Anyways, all wen fine and the gray HTC logo appeared on my screen but after few seconds the RUU gave me "Bootloader version error [140]". After that my phone is just dead. It wont turn on or anything, I cant get ADB to my phone. Screen is totally black. The phone just randomly vibrates when i plug it in the charger or press the power button after taking the battery out. But its just random. The charging led indicator wont even turn on.
I Had few weeks old XJ's MIUI installed, CWM 4.X.X.X and hboot 6.93.9999 (if i remember right, 6.93.XXXX it was anyways). After failing the RUU, I googled and found out that i shuold have downgraded hboot first? I recently bought a new phone so actually just didnt give s*** Im having proximity sensor problem in my old Desire, so I would like to return it to the shop after flashing the default rom.
So folks, how do I proceed? Totally bricked?
Thanks!

Thanks, but as I already said, the phone cant be detected by PC. The phone wont even turn on. I tried again starting the phone to fastboot mode, but the phone wont even vibrate or show any signs of life. The only thing is that when i randomly plug the phone to the charger, it might vibrate and start warming up.
And yes, I've tried charging the phone over night assuming the battery would be empty.

droidzone's slcd brick guide is more comprehensive, if that doesn't work then i dunno unfortunately...

Whoa, got some life to my phone! Started it somehow with usb plugged and vol down and i got it to recoverymode! ADB Devices gives me following:
List of devices attached

Dont want to boot the phone again, what do i do now? tried running a RUU for SLCD spotted in the sticky thread here, but it gives me 170 USB error.
EDIT:
So I'm in this situation now? (taken from droidzone's guide)
"IF YOU SOFT BRICKED AN SLCD BRANDED DESIRE WHICH HAD AN UPDATED VERSION OF HBOOT BY FLASHING AN INCOMPATIBLE RUU, AND IF THE DISPLAY WONT TURN ON NOW, YOU CANNOT RESTORE THE PHONE TO WORKING CONDITION UNLESS YOU HAVE A CORRECT RUU FOR THE UPDATED HBOOT, OR A GOLDCARD. "

Bricked HTC Desire

Hi guys,
My bro has been flashing roms quite oftenly, I dont know how he does it. I dont use a HTC Desire.
Today he came to me and told me to help him fix up because he couldnt boot to anything.
The phone stay on the White HTC Screen only.
After reading up XDA, I booted into fastboot (Back Button + Power) and tried to Flash HTC Bravo RUU for WEE_Asia.
I used to flash WinMo devices so I thought it should be any problem.
When flashing, everything was fine until towards the end an error saying the package is lost or incomplete. and the RUU updater just leaves me without any choice to revert or what. I didnt not get a screenshot as well.
Now the device is bricked. Power button, anything doesnt work at all, blank screen. yeah..
So any suggestions or tricks to unbrick it?
ADD: Is it this first case of a REAL BRICK HTC Desire? (because I see alot people posting about 'brick' devices but its just merely some software problem)
because as far as I know its quite impossible to brick a device, well and error during RUU update can brick the device, but the error appears in the end of the RUU so Im still kinda unsure what problem is it.

pull the battery out for a min then put back in and hold volume down + power. what happens? does it vibrate or anything?
Sent from my HTC Desire

nope. no vibration at all.
Could it be a battery problem?
because I always see him charging daily and his battery always goes down till 40% or so even in airplane mode!
would it have been the battery problem that caused the RUU error?

Sent from my HTC Desire

Yes the device was S-off when I ran RUU.
Unfortunately, warranty was over last month..
So is this the case of broken bootloader?

I saw some relevant questions in this thread and decided this is the right place for my question. Here are the symptoms of what looks like my bricked HTC Desire It happened to me after I ran (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783) RUU on my S-OFF phone:
- Take the battery in/out, press power button, just a quick vibrate and nothing happens
- Tried to boot in fastbood (Power button + Volume -) nothing happens
- Plug in the charger - LED is ON (orange)
- The msg on the PC app for RUU was that there was an err during the "upgrade", which was a downgrade attempt, caused by the fact that my phone software was not the right one for that RRU.. or smth like that. Suggesting I go and download the right version.
My question is... is my HTC Desire officially bricked or are we talking about some of those "soft bricks" you guys are referring to with hope for a restore.
Thx outfront, guys.

Thx for the reply! Doesn't budge.
I kept the battery out for a few mins and held down the buttons for a while as well. Screen doesn't turn on. I'm guessing the vibration and LED are good signs?
I've been at it for a while. As far as I got looking for answers throughout the forum... I used ADB app on windows to run command "adb devices" and got a
HT-some-code/serial....................recovery.
So I'm guessing the phone is stuck in recovery. Wonder if I can turn S-ON and try to re-run RUU from this adb thingy.

Ok, I unbricked it For all people that will land here, my (USB) brick occured after running the wrong RUU on a S-OFF Desire.
I started down the list of HTC Desire shipped RUUs from the list of shipped RUU (can't post link) and the phone got back to its out-of-the box state after I hit the right one. Worked for me.

I tried running the command "adb devices" when my bricked Desire is connected on my PC (pressed down the two buttons as well before connecting it) but it says "List of devices attached" without any serial you said that there was.
I don't know how does the "recovery" on bricked phone works. I did my test: remove and reinsert battery and connect phone. LED comes out. (means it isn't permanently bricked) press down "volume down" and "power" buttons and LED switched off. Tells me that recovery must have been booted.
Any suggestions? :crying:
EDIT:
Okay I followed the RUU method (post just above this). I remembered which RUU I am supposed to install (technically RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_TR_1.30.184.3_Radio_32.41.00.32U_4.08.00.09_release_139001_signed.exe). Unfortunately I received the ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR, which is sad. hurr
Before this bricking incident happened, I did an update to get android v. 2.3.4. Then I want to revert back its hboot from 1.02 to 0.9x using this method. Somehow, after the third step I still have S-OFF, HBOOT 6.93.1002, which is frustrating. That's where I went to alpharev and tried my luck. Nothing gets the advantage. I found another topic which then I found this rooting topic. That's where I began dumb and installing the RUU I want to install (which is the asia version, since my phone's RUU should be from Asia).
And that's how I got my phone bricked.
ugh

I tried running the command "adb devices" when my bricked Desire is connected on my PC (pressed down the two buttons as well before connecting it) but it says "List of devices attached" without any serial you said that there was.
I don't know how does the "recovery" on bricked phone works. I did my test: remove and reinsert battery and connect phone. LED comes out. (means it isn't permanently bricked) press down "volume down" and "power" buttons and LED switched off. Tells me that recovery must have been booted.
Any suggestions? :crying:

I still have the customer ID error.
I fear that it's already "permanently" bricked.

Try asking in the Desire HD section. This is the HTC Desire (Bravo) section.
