Hi
I have an HTC Desire running oxygen. I tried downloading the RUU for the stock rom and running it. It partially completed buy then it could no longer be recognised. Is there anyway I can get this back to a stock rom. My SD card broke and I dont have the original backup.
Please help if you can.
Kind Regards
Adam
Bootloader info please as usually.
What RUU did you try flash?
What was the eroor message?
Is the phone branded? etc, etc etc...
I just about managed to instal oxygen and am quite new to all this so apologies if I sound like a noob.
I dont know how to check the bootloader.
I tried RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704
It says "Updating Signature" and then comes up with "ERROR [131]:CUSTOM ER ID ERROR".
The phone is unbranded and came unlocked.
Thanks so much for the reply
Bootloader is 0.93.0001
use a recent ruu and not a jurassic one
try with wwe 2.29.405.5
even if CID error mean probably ur phone is branded..but worth a try with the above ruu
ensure the phone is full charged, and when running the ruu dont pull battery or unplug the cable
if ur phone is working with oxygen now, then there is no need to run the ruu
Hi
Thanks for the reply. The phone is definitely unbranded and unlocked.
Tried that RUU and it doesnt even recognise the phone as an Android device. Tried unplugging an plugging back in and it still doesnt recognise it.

well its not the ruu that doesn't recognize ur phone..
its ur pc that doesn't recognize it..is it? u can still access the sdcard content from ur computer?
if ur pc does not recognize it (even with the right drivers up and running), then u have an USB brick..search for a guide (if that the case)
My phone shows up as an Android Device and once i have opened that it says My HTC. I dont have an sd card in my phone. When I connect the phone nothing comes up on the device. However it does show on the pc. The other RUU recognised the phone. This one just doesnt seem to want to.

thats strange..reboot the phone..reboot the pc..already tried? ensure is not a corrupted ruu download..
I have downloaded the most recent RUU again and it made no difference. I have rebooted each device many times. I know. I worry that I have screwed the phone. I dont understand why the first one fails at the signature stage. If i could at least make that work I could do the OTA updates
Do you have the drivers installed (worth a shot).
Also boot into fastboot mode -
1. Power off device
2. Boot into bootloader (holding Power + Vol Down)
3. Choose fastboot
If your USB is ok, then the fastboot line should change to fastboot usb.
Then run the RUU.
Just tried the rom before (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed). Recognised the phone, started running and failed again on the Updating signature part.

CID error? then ur phone is branded i think
Tried your steps and the phone did change to fastboot USB. It started running fine and then failed on the updating signature part. I also do have the drivers installed.
Also I dont know if clockword is affecting it either. Absolutely nothing when I tried and dind similar situations to me.
What was the exact error(With Number)? CID? As andQlimax says?
Wait, you have clockworkmod working and running?
The exact error i have is "ERROR [131]:CUSTOMER ID ERROR".
Also I can go into recovery and it takes me to clockworkmod recovery v2.5.0.7
Well CID error definitely states you have a branded phone and you need a different RUU.
However, if you have a working clockworkmod recovery why don't you flash a custom ROM?

if ur clockworkmod works, and ur oxygen rom works too..why u need an ruu?
I have got oxygen working well again. Thing is I am selling it as have just got a SGS2. I thought it would be better to sell it with the stock rom. Now it working again on oxygen how should I go about getting it back to stock. As though I was trying for the first time. Thanks for all your helps guys.
PS I have used this phone on O2, Orange and Vodafone. Also there is no branding on the device. The packaging is also unbranded. Its an SLCD version. Dont know if that makes a difference

someone realls should update the tutorial. There is no need to downgrad to older hboot with the newest unrevoked.
EDIT: Is your phone branded? Did you write down you exact version number before you flashed anything?
Have you tried to run the new unrevoked in the state its in now?
Branded?version number?
What you mean....
I try to run the new unrevoked3 but program just say "waiting for device"
I check in device manager and can see that Android bootloader iinterface appear.
But nothing happend....
What to to??HELP ME
I need to get my phone back to life...
There must be away to fixx it??
was you phone network branded? as in did a network logo appear when you turned your phone on

Did you enable USB Debugging? Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging.
There probably is a way to recover your phone, but it isn't helping that you didnt write down you version numbers and/or read in the forum before you started the root process.
Is your phone branded?: Is it a provider-phone i.e. t-mobile, vodafone etc? To give a definite answer on that you need to know the exact version number (like 2.29.405.5). Without this number you can afaik just guess - did you see a logo other than htc's on bootup? Where there any provider-specific apps preinstalled on your phone? Where did you buy it?
My first guess is to boot into fastboot (power on while holding "back"-key) and flash the correct ruu ( Download here)
If its unbranded, the correct RUU is RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe.
After that your phone is completely back to stock and you can retry the rooting-prodedure but with the newest unrevoked and without downgrading hboot
EDIT: Am I correct in thinking that you can't boot up your phone and a stuck on the first htc-logo (before the annoying sound)? If no, forget all the above.
Can you boot into recovery? (power on while hitting vol-, then wait 10 seconds, then highlight "recovery" with vol-/vol+, select with power, wait another 5 seconds, hit vol+ + power (I think ^^)
Hi
I check before I do the downgrade procedure that its hads this number:2.29.405.5
And I try to get unrevoked now and no communication.
I also had USB debugging on before it crash.
Now its just freeze on HTC logo and after that a red triangle with a phone symbol.

That means your phone is not branded ('405' is the important part).
The get unrevoked working you need your phone to be booted up. So you probably need to run the ruu first.
How can I start ruu?
What is the step to install that RUU?
Do I need to install something on the SDcard?
Do I need a PC to do this?

As I said, you download the RUU[...].exe I posted earlier. Then you boot your phone into fastboot (power+back-Key ) and run the downloaded ruu.exe on your PC. Piece of cake.
But wait for someone else to confirm.
I try to start the RUU but got an Error....on the PC
What to do?
I run Windows7 on PC.
Why can`t I run the RUU file??any clue....
Are you using 32 or 64 Bit? Sometimes 64 bit cause problems. What did the error say?
Just right click and and run as administrator.. run your RUU that way
Well, I use 32bit Enterprise version and right click as administrator, still fail to open....
Help......
This is the error message below:

What RUU is for me????

There must be some expert out there....can someone help me please...
I run this

Its start but get an error "170" USB connection...well
I am confused now....seems that I cant connect to phone..

Is the phone dead now????do I need to send it back to vendor for repair???
Hey guys I'm really desperate right now...
I don't know what to to, I can't boot my Desire, I can't get into recovery, just fastboot is working. I'm always stuck on the splashscreen.
To begin with the story, I rooted my Desire months ago, flashed a new rom from time to time and everything worked fine. So yesterday I wanted to try out RCMix S CM7 where the FAQ said i need S-OFF.
So this also worked quite fine. But then I got problems partitioning my SDCard (dont know what why or so, my Desire didnt recognize it anymore)
Today I tried again but I made it even worse, now I can't boot my Rom anymore and I can't get into Recovery. So what should I do? I searched the internet for hours now and tried nearly everything.
I tried to flash an official RUU, in fact this one: RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
Becaus the others were too "old". But when I tried starting this one it couldnt detect my desire. USB connecion error.
But still it seems it flashed a new hboot because now I am S-ON again.
Then I tried to flash a Stock ROM via fastboot, which first failed because it wasn't signed and the second one failed because android-info.txt and android-product.txt were missing.
I tried to flash the recovery again but it's still stuck on the splashcreen.
I don't know what to do anymore... could you PLS help me? Or is my Desire now bricked??
What can I do, or try...?
greets patrick

If fastboot is working you should be pretty much safe. It seems like you got an usb brick. Try this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691187
My Suggestion ... Create a Goldcard beofre doing anything.. once done you can put PB99IMG.zip into ur SD card and it will flash automatic once you goto fastboot... but Goldcard is a must for this.. if you dont knw search how to create goldcard.
For Goldcard
http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile...gold-card-for-htc-desire-without-hex-editing/
or
http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/
Pat, is your phone branded ?
Flash the correct RUU for your phone (one that came with your phone originally), it does not really matter how old it is. after you done that your should get back to stock you can re-root it and then load the firmware you want.
if you don't know what your phone came with originally. then you will need a goldcard to get back to stock
@paul.c: nope it isn't branded
@dennis.l: I can't! I tried some of this list: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
The old ones with 1.15 and 1.21 started, but didn't work because it said they are too old or something like that.
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe
Then I tried the newer one with FroYo, but this one throw and error saying it can't even find or connect to my phone.
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
So what I've read so far I definitely need a goldcard right?
But all those manuals say I have to boot up and activate USB Debugging Mode... but I cant boot up a rom. The only thing that is working right now is fastboot.
Is it possible to make a goldcard without booting up? Or do I have to get a working Desire to make the goldcard?
I haven't got a cardreader either but seems I've got to get one.
Right now I'm not at home so can just try it in the evening.

You don't need goldcard for unbranded phones.
Even Unbranded phone requires goldcard to be able to flash any RUU...
So I prefer you create goldcard.. and yehs you can create goldcard without booting..
If you have anyone with android mobile.. goto market and search for goldcard helper.. and insert you memory card in that phone.. and run the goldcard helper.. it will give you the reverse CID .. whcih you can use to create goldcard... but you will require a card reader for sure..... just try your luck with your current phone.. just plug in the phone and run the Goldcard tool.. and check if your phone is detecting
THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!
You saved my life! xD
I made a goldcard as you said with the help of a friend and his desire. Then I put it my phone and suddenly I could flash the newest Stock ROM
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
So everything went great, I've got root again, a working stock rom and I'm able to start recovery mode again.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Anytime Bro
I recently experienced a similar problem. And all the stuff you described wrong with your phone is the same on mine.
What I want to know is how to get back to stock and all that? A step by step guide would be very much apreciated..
I tried following this guide:http: //forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639
but as I try to enable my sdcard it get an error:
"The program can't start because AdbWinApi.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem".
I recently installed the JDK and just downloaded the newest android SDK to work with.
Besides I'm considering whether I'm doing this right. I do have to use the CMDprompt right? and direct it to my androidsdk/tools directory?
I'm pretty much new to messing around with my phone through the CMD though. Please be gentle when you describe any methods that might work..?

Me

Adbwinapi.dll was moved to the platform-tools dir in the android sdk and the sdk path in Windows hasn't be updated. In win xp right click my computer, go to system then click the system variables button. Find "path" and change it to point in to the "platform-tools" folder... Note I'm not at my pc so I can't remember 100% what tab the system variables button is on

hi,
rage is right, better declare environnement variable, right click comupter - select properties - windows select advanced and you should see variable environnement. just add the path where adb is installed... mine is the following defaut path(C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\tools) + (C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools) should add the in the user environ... name = path variable= the 2 path separated by a ;
Well I got desperate and I think that I've totally bricked my phone. I was going to a family arrangement and I didn't know the way so I was hoping that flashing the original RUU, would make me able to use the phone and the navigation in it, while starting the phone in fastboot would help. Seems it didn't. The RUU I tried to install seems it was a wrong one (here to say that I tried flashing it through the installer on my pc), but this was stated pretty late in the installation process.. where the guide told me to install a proper one.
My phone is now totally unresponsive. It won't even charge. When I hold the power button it just vibrates once and then nothing else happens.
Is it bricked? If so, does anyone know what my chances are with my warranty? Now that I've had it rooted and stuff, does my warrenty then expire and can they "track" the rooting part if I hand in it to their support?
Best of regards,
Me.

only guessing but if NOTHING turns on or boots, as in you just see a black screen then there is not going to be a way for any one to know the phone was rooted
try taking it back on warranty
I thought the same thing myself. Since it's unable to boot into the "recovery" menu by holding down "power + volume down" I guess it's not rooted anymore anyhow. During the RUU installation I noticed that it was installing a new "image-something" which I'm guessing means that it was writing over the root and recovery after which the installation failed.
Anyhow I'll try that and hope for the best. Thanks

Are you able to recognise the phone in adb at all?
From what I know it's very rare to completely brick unless you are flashing hboots or radios.
Hi, Im trying to fix my Desire after getting water damaged, I have spent some time disassembling and drying out, so know that all is dry, when I turn it on My O2 screen flashes on then dies out and restarts, staying in this loop. I can get into the hboot menu. so Im looking for help restoring my stock hboot?? I think?
The phone hasnt had any custom images loaded to my knowledge, so i dont think it will be rooted or ready to load custom images.
Anyway my phone details are:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
will it be as easy as finding the hboot and copying to my sd?
much appreciated.
EDIT: NOW SOLVED - Thread Summary:
Alot of useless information in this thread regarding my ACTUAL problem but still some good info on creating Goldcards. After completely drying phone out after getting wet, I reassembled and tried it out, and it just flicked the O2 screen up and restarted, after trying everything below I then found out I needed a new battery, thats all! lol, so this is incase someone else has a phone that acts like mine did after water damage, I have a link to a youtube vid of what my phone was doing.
Thanks to all who helped me get problem resolved, my phone is back!
Can you get to the fastboot?
If so try running "fastboot devices" is your phone recognized?
Edit:
Ah you're S-ON, then go to fastboot, try downloading appropriate RUU for your device and run it.
See what happens. (you might need gold card if you are branded)
I guess you cant get to the recovery?
You could have not changed your hboot if you are s-on. So there is not hboot which needs to be restored. If you are would be really damaged, you would not be able to power on your desire at all. The hboot is the absolute basis of an android phone (like bios for computer). If this gets damaged, your phone is totally bricked and not more than an expensive paperweight.
When you are able to access fastboot (start phone with pressed back and power button or boot into hboot>choose fastboot with volume buttons>enter with power button), you could flash a ruu. To find out which is the right one, you need to tell us wether your phone was branded or not and when it was branded, which provider you have.
Hi thanks for replies, I understand I dont need to replace my hboot as i can get into thue menu and i can get into fastboot menu aswell. Its branded O2 so where can I find an RUU thats suitable?
If you cant get into fastboot menu, you are pretty much screwed because RUU wont detect your phone.

ok i have downloaded that ruu, but its not detecting my phone. when i first turn phone on with vol- held i get hboot menu. one of the options is fastboot (already selected) i select that by pressing power button, then my menu changes to fast boot. then my options are: bootloader, reboot, reboot bootloader, power down. i left it at this menu while i ran the RUU, is this correct? also do I need to install any other software on pc? I have installed the HBOOT USB driver earlier while I was looking about, does this need removing? also my hboot menu when first run looks through files on my sd card, should i copy the ruu file to sd?

Yes, not touching the menu is correct.
No, you do not need to install any other software on your pc.
No, you do not need to remove the hboot usb driver.
No, don't copy the ruu to sd. I recommend to save important data on sd card (just in case). Just run the ruu on your computer.
I get USB Connection Error while phone displays fastboot usb, any ideas?
Shall I try a GoldCard?

Installed hboot drivers correctly:
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
Furthermore, check if you have only htc sync drivers installed.
The goldcard can only avoid the cid error, and has nothing to do with the usb connection.
When u use Unrevoked remove HTC connectivity from ur computer...
And u can use FastbootCommanderV.1.5 to patch HBOOT...
ok getting somewhere USb drivers must be screwed on my lappy, i installed on another machine and using fastboot commander I could connect in fastboot mode and got my phone details up, I then tried the RUU that you gave me a link to earlier and it successfully connected and attempted the update, although after about 2 mins it says that its the wrong version ruu. current version is: 2.14.207.3, one contained in RUU is 2.14.207.1 So what should I do now?
wow what crappy luck, you seem to have a new version so it won't let you downgrade.. bump from my end :/
eek didnt really wanna hear owt like that lol, will a gold card not help me here? lol

No it will not. A goldcard can only help you, if you want to flash a stock ruu although you have a branded phone. When you do not have a goldcard in this situation, you get a cid error.

yeah so if he had a goldcard, he'd be able to flash a WWE RUU and be out of this sticky situation..
so will it be safe to flash a wwe over my stock o2?

Yes and no. For the case, he wants the stock ruu, you are right. But he wants to use his warranty, so needs the ruu of this provider. But the ruu he wants flash is older than the one he is running now. So he cannot flash the the ruu. And this problem cannot be avoided by using a goldcard, because the hboot version has nothing to do with the cid number.
On this way I at least understand the matter. Correct me, if I am wrong.
my htc is broken when i turn it on it dont start it show that secure off screen and it start flash green points.
I also can get to recovery but i cannot connect it to my computer and it cannot find my sd card or anything any1 can help how i can unroot it if i can at all since it cannot find sd card or plug to computer.
Thanks already for answers.
when i go to recyvery it say:
RMD Recovery v.1.0.3.4
o.modevision=oxygen_COS-16042012
***WARNING: No sdcard present!
Battery 0%

You don't need htc sync. All you need is your phone, a pc, a usb cable and the RUU.
Fastboot. USB. RUU. 3 steps you need.
If that doesn't work download fastboot drivers.

Because when i press power + volume down it goes to hboot and there top read alpharev is it normally alpharev or how i get removed it if its not normally

And can you give link or tell which RUU is same as stock i live in finland if it tell
EDIT:

BRAVO UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.75.0000
is those right now
and what is that date: Mar 5 2010,21:12:15
what that date mean?
Ohh if you're returning for warranty then this changes things slightly.
If the phone was branded i.e. you got it on contract with a network, you need to use the RUU for that network. (except for orange)
If the phone was unbranded i.e. bought from a store such as amazon.com then you're okay.
If you're unsure, you can use the official 2.3 RUU, which will definitely cover your warranty.
If you're not returning for warranty purposes - don't worry about it.
So, I have this Droid Incredible 2 from a Co-worker that I said I would try and fix for him. He knew I was a little better at trying to fix stuff like this since I've done all this stuff before on my Droid Incredible and Motorola Xoom Wifi.
The Problem:
When starting the phone like normal it gets stuck at the HTC screen.
What I've tried so far:
- PG32IMG.zip (Stock 2.3.4) Starts going through the process and then sticks at "Updating Recovery"
- Recovery will start and continues to say "Updating software from Verizon Wireless," but then turns to the red warning sign with the android guy.
Other Important Info:
- S-ON
- HBOOT-0.98.0000
- Android Version 2.3.4
- Can't get the phone to show up in "ADB Devices" on PC, but I can get my Droid Incredible and Xoom too.
I looked for hours on multiple sites and always came up short with the solution being to either have S-Off or turn on USB debugging. Both of which wont work because I cant get that far.
Anyone have any ideas? (I've been a lurker on these forums for a while now and I've usually found what I needed here)

See if you can downgrade the phone. That will reset it to bootloader .97.
Check your software version first. Are you on the 6.x software?

Tried it again, but it just sticks @ device not found. I tried it on another computer with all new software and it still wouldn't find it.

OK, the only thing is I couldnt tell you because the phone wont even get past the white HTC boot screen so I can't even get into that option or anything else like it for that matter. The only thing I have to work with is the bootloader menu (HBOOT, FASTBOOT, RECOVERY (Doesnt work), etc.)
I guess just one day it just stopped when he tried loading a random rom on it.
sorry, I can't read. delete this.

Are you using the stock usb cord? Sometimes using a different one will work.

I've tried my droid incredible cord, my xoom cord, my lumia 900 cord, and the stock one he gave me. They work on all my other devices, so it's down to this incredible 2 being a pain.
I somehow got my computer to notice the device as "My HTC" under device manager by putting it in "fastboot usb." Doing so and running the downgrade hack I get the following in the cmd window and it looks to be stalled:
C:\vwhk-12102011-c>fastboot oem rebootRUU
...
If I'm right doesn't the device have to be in debugging mode before the computer will show the device under "adb devices?" (Which as I said wont happen because I can only work with the bootloader menu)
take the sdcard out of the phone put it in an adapter, plug it into the sd slot on computer and transfer the ruu to the card that way, then put back in phone

Tried it both ways for kicks (Main Version is Older through HBOOT and C:\vwhk-12102011-c>fastboot oem rebootRUU ... again).
And yes I put both a copy of the RUU changed too PG32IMG and another one with RUU_Vivo_W_Gingerbread_S_VERIZON_WWE_2.18.605.3_Radio_1.09.01.0622_NV_VZW1.92_release_199487_signed on the sd card, once again just for kicks.
what ruu are you trying to put in? it has to be the latest or the 2.3.4 with .98 hboot, then you can run the downgrade tool. also the bootloader has to be locked, if it is unlocked, you must relock, ( i don;t know all your circumstances so i'm just trying to narrow it down)
you can get that ruu from jellybellies or condemned soul on here somewhere

Well now I'm trying to use the newest from jellybellies (2.3.4 w/ .98 HBOOT), but the downgrade tool stops in the same place and when trying to run the update through the bootloader it stalls and freezes at "[2] RECOVERY - Updating."
The bootloader is locked as it's highlighted in pink on the very top as well.
I do appreciate all the help from everyone so far.
Well buddy i don't know if your running the downgrade tool you must have gotten the ruu installed, here's another thing i found out, it's better to run the downgrade on a 32bit system, i had trouble on a 64bit, then tried on my other computer and it went. you could try a different computer, sometimes it works.
also, you must run as administrator, remove any sync stuff like htc sync or itunes, and disable virus program, friggin itunes will mess you up
So, I gave up on the other methods for now and decided to try the HTC Unlocker Utility for the hell of it. I get all the way to the end and I cant select "YES." I can only select "NO"

Yea, the power button(Select) only works when no is highlighted. When yes is highlighted and I press the power button to select it, it just sits there.
your not coping and pasting the stuff in there right then, read and follow directions exactly, just the numbers in the square, nothing else
