Desire un-responsive - Please Help

I've seen a couple of threads such as this with no real solution.
I've been happily using my Desire for months without changing roms or whatever (CM7 and s-off) until last night I opened my Dolphin browser and before it loaded the homepage it froze, totally un-responsive. I took the battery out, and to my horror, it was still totally un-responsive. Wouldn't respond to pressing the power button, pressing volume down+power, charger, or usb.
The battery at the time was about 50%, I've had the battery in and out about 100 times now, trying things like leaving the battery out and then trying again, keeping it on 'charge' for a while and trying to get it booted, with no response at all.
This was until an hour ago, I hopefully tried to boot the phone after the battery, sim and sd card had been out for a while and I got a vibration, and then it hung on the flash screen. I had to remove the battery, then tried to boot again with no response, so I left it a while again, put the battery in and got to the bootloader, thought I'd get into recovery and try a nandroid or something, only when I selected recovery it hung on the slash screen again.
Does anyone have any ideas what this is, or how this could be fixed? Damn I hate not being able to use my previously awesome phone!
I apologise for the long post, I'm just trying to give a good explanation of things. I just couldn't see the problem being my battery, only the day before the problem I was telling my friend how great the battery life on my phone is, and that he should give rooting a go and use CM7, this probably hasn't swayed his decision to root his phone.

did you try rebooting it without sdcard?

If you manage to get it running , try to flash a shipped ROM - it should unroot you and fix any software problems . Try taking it back to your carrier as that sounds more like a hardware problem.

you are stuck on HTC screen are you not? Then this is the exact same situation is it not?

"I'm S-ON, I can't boot recovery, and my phone doesn't boot "
This is a bit of a worse situation, as you cannot flash system critical parts such as the recovery image and just restore a backup. This unfortunately means that you will lose all of your data when you attempt to fix the phone.
[STEP1]- Make sure that you have a goldcard. If not, create one from the tutorial.
[STEP2]- Battery pull. Hold the BACK button and the POWER button to boot into FASTBOOT mode.
[STEP3]- Download the latest WWE RUU from here
[STEP4]- Run the RUU and wait for completion WARNING: DO NOT, BY ANY CIRCUMSTANCES INTERRUPT THE PROCESS - THIS WILL MORE THAN LIKELY END UP WITH A BRICKED PHONE - NOT EVEN IF GOD HIMSELF TELLS YOU TO DO SO, OR IF THE US PRESIDENT THREATENS YOU WITH THERMO-NUCLEAR WAR
[STEP5]- Once the phone is booted, you are now returned completely to stock. You will need to re-root again, and I'd recommend S-OFF

I've changed the HTC screen to a Google one, but yes, formally the HTC screen.
I will try and get to the bootloader/fastbootagain, only I have not been able to get to that today. I'm going to download an RUU, and try and flash it, although I'm not sure how if I can't get into recovery? Any help there?

up to you, doesn't make a difference

Thanks for the help, unfortunately when I got the RUU downloaded and the bootloader downgrader I now can't get the phone into fastboot! Rather gutted, as I could get it there the other day, now I may have to accept defeat!

What happens when you try to get to fastboot mode? How do you do it? Try to boot into hboot, then press power button and you should be in fastboot mode.

I have been onto them. The response from HTC was amazing, after detailing in an email my phone is dead, won't respond and won't turn on.
I was told, 'while the phone is on, remove the battery and sim and perform a soft reset, if this fails, perform a factory reset, through settings'
I replied asking them how much it will be for them to fix it, they haven't replied! Maybe they don't do weekend!
So if I send it off to them, are they going to frown upon me for fiddling with the phone and rooting etc?

[q] semi brick

Hello, I wanted to ask if anyone knows how to resolve a SEMI-BRICK. There is no way to enter recovery mode or fastboot.
Was installing a ROM when I got an error and never could turn on the phone. Only I get the screen with the mobile and pc with an exclamation mark in the middle.
Appreciate your help.
PS: sorry for my English
Javier

If you can't get to download mode you might be screwed. Can you get into download mode? If you can then you can just use odin or fastboot to push the factory rom to the phone and it will work again. Obviously you lose root but you can re-root afterwards. Good luck.

I find no way to enter download mode. in any way that I only try to turn the screen appears to indicate in the query.
There is no way to fix it?
thanks

Hey, in all the time on here I have never heard of a bricked Nexus.
Ok so just to be sure when the phone is off and you hold volume down and the power button it does nothing? Sorry just want to be sure this is the case...

probe all possible combinations and all leading me to the same, the screen with the exclamation mark. and on volume +, volume - and power and volume + and - and on

Ah no dude. That sounds bad. I might be wrong but you may need to go back to your provider and tell them it just switched off and wont work anymore.
Do you see the Google logo and the lock symbol when you turn it on or just this exclamation mark?
Obviously if you go back to your provider don't mention anything about roms or rooting as that voids your warranty but if they can't see the Google logo with the lock then they wont know you were rooting and romming it.
That would drive me crazy so I hope you get sorted soon.

The issue is that here in Argentina is not this phone. I bought online and sent me the U.S.. I have therefore not who wear it.

Yeah, good luck man.

Well folks, with all the pain of the soul I confirm that I have is a full-BRICK. Last night at the JIG probe, and the only thing it does is turn on the phone and see the same screen BRICK. Since I can not think what else to do, only use it as a paperweight as they say

Any chance you try leaving battery out for a while, give it at least a good 10 minutes

Neither. I've left it up all night without battery and nothing.

Bad news Javii! So what are you going to do next?

Today I will try to recognize me either linux, so maybe you can do a fastboot to install the original rom. Because I said if you see the exclamation point is because it is a semi-brick

I used to get that screen with my Galaxy Tab when flashing the wrong ROM.
If the ODIN and original files are available for you to use, just use that and it should fix your phone.

my phone doesn't charge/boot... probably dead

i already searched a lot, but i didn't find anything useful so i post here hoping that someone can help me. i really need my phone so before send it to htc service i have to try to get it back working.
simply yesterday my phone went off because of low battery. when i got back home i try to charge it, but nothing happened. so i tried using pc in order to see if something happen, and led started to blink slow (orange led). so i turned it on, and it worked. then i was using it (connected to the wall charger) and it frozed, at 9% battery. so i tried to restart it (by pressing power and vol down), but nothing happened... it was completely dead, i tried:
-wall-charger;
-pc-usb;
-change different charger/different usb cables);
-i left it the night connected to the charger);
-no adb, and obviously i can't get the phone in recovery/bootloader/fastboot...
i was on hboot 1.3x... don't remember which number cause i updated the hboot a few days ago. i was on viper rom and i was using the tripndroid kernel based on official nvidia sources (really like their works )
hoping that someone can help me
however in the next days i will send it back to htc but i need to try something cause i really need my phone in those days and i have no replacement. will htc repair my phone for free? (remember that i unlocked it)

Crazy thing. U can't put the phone in bootloader mod?

That means your phone is broken. It needs a new motherboard.
Nobody has recovered from that. Some people have managed to get the phone working after APX, but it seems to go back to APX mode.
Sorry. Back to HTC it goes...

ok thanks... it is and hardware fault or it's because of the custom rom/kernel?

[Q] Screen flickering / Bootloop -> Is my Nexus dead? Data recovery possible?

Hello,
just some hours ago my Galaxy Nexus (SC-04D) rebooted while lying on the table next to me. After several sings of vibration I noticed that the phone doesn't boot completely.
When switching on the phone I get the turn-on-vibration, then the google letters are displayed. Most times the word "google" flickers from left to right over the screen (only the line where the word is supposed to be). Sometimes it boots further and I get the colored "X" displayed. This symbol starts flickering, too and if it went so far it reboots.
Here are two pictures I took from the phone failing to boot:
picpaste.com/img_0001_01-Rmm7kDYb.jpg
picpaste.com/img_0001-eoLqVoiM.jpg
The phone is running stock Android from Docomo. The phone is about 14 months old and has never been unlocked, rooted, modded, taken a bath, ... 'til now.
I tried starting with and without SIM-card, with and without charger attached and let it lie around for several minutes without battery between my tries.
Is there any chance to get my data from the phone or even get it fixed? Please give me a hint what I can do.

Well the Red exclamation mark means that there is a problem with the phone reading the build path. Since you have never rooted the phone, this would mean that the files got corrupt on the phone. With a non-rooted phone a Factory Reset is about the only solution, but is probably only a temporary fix. This is most likely caused by too many apps on the phone and it just freaked out on something eventually.
I think these options might work for you, however I cannot confirm since I have rooted my phone from day one and never looked back:
Power button + up volume= recovery

Thanks GPFboy for your fast response,

As far as I understand a factory reset results in a complete loss of data on the phone, right? So without root/unlock there's no chance to get my data from the phone? That would be really bad.

What is "too many"? I think there are about 35 apps installed atm. By the moment the problem arose wifi and 3g-data,BT,GPS were disabled and just a minute before I took a look how late it was. So nothing special.

ok, I tried that several time now, but it didn't work. The only thing when I select recovery and press the power button is that I get the google logo and then the dead android + red exclamation sign, but this screen is scrambled and shows flickering pixels as shown in one of my pictures in the first post. So recovery mode seems not to work for me?
Is there a software or hardware problem with my device?

You can try to unlock your boorloader and flash a custom recovery like cwm or twrp. Maybe that helps. You can always go back and re lock it.

He wants to keep his data... which, at this point, seems rather impossible.
If fastboot doesn't solve it, i would try omapflash, OP. That "flickering" doesn't look good.

Yes exactly this is the point. Since I don't have a current data backup the first thing to try is getting my data from the phone. I already tried temporary loading the clockwork recovery through fastboot - with the galaxy nexus toolkit and by hand(sdk) - but it failed ("Bootloader locked").
What I'm wondering about is the fact that the phone seems to behave normally in odin and fastbood mode but going nuts the moment it's expected to boot. Besides the flickering google logo and the "matrix-modded" dead android it even ended up in a totally green screen one time.
At the moment I don't dare trying to unlock/flash the phone because of being afraid getting stuck and ending up with the phone being in some kind of undefined / totally broken state. Initially I was in hope of being able to rescue my data but now i will try my luck with docomo support first.
As far as I understood omapflash is primary used for recovering bricked phones not even starting to odin/fastboot mode. But thanks to your hint I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016628 "Unlock bootloader on GT-I9250 without wipe and without root" This might bring some chance for data access.
I will try to get through 1 to 4 of the guide first and see how far I get.
If this won't work I might try to unlock, recover and try to "undelete" what's possible. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705)
Does this order make sense?
Btw, having a dead phone is bad, of course, even when I got it new for 2300Yen but loosing some pictures i really liked and having no phone atm currently hurts more. Especially when knowing that I was thinking of copying all photos to my computer only one day before when I pulled only some minor important ones from the phone I needed for work and planned to do a full backup and unlock this weekend when I get back my 'Milestone' currently lent to someone else.
Once again something I learned. Backup! Even you phone.

It will work actually, I read/also replied to that thread! I had forgotten about it, sorry. I must say that if you had already read the stickies that matter, you'd already know about it.
It will unlock your bootloader, bypassing fastboot. Still, it's not for the faint hearted. I refered to omapflash because its a low level tool, it doesn't require the bootloader to be unlocked, and is able to restore the bootloader to working state, and I got there because you mentioned you see graphical glitches/flickering which may indicate bootloader partition failure and/or consequent corruption.
I think that's your best shot at trying to get your data back. After unlock, boot to fastboot and 'fastboot boot custom_recovery.img', and grab your stuff (if you can) from /data/.

Your hint was very helpful for me getting the right direction since I'm just starting to dig into all this stuff.
Unlocking went quite well. Writing back to the phone worked without a problem and after that it's shown as unlocked in fastboot mode.
It even started loading clockwork recovery with fastboot. But the initial cw recovery screen (their logo and the cw recovery footer) was already shown on a scattered screen (google logo + unlocked lock was fine). After that the usb port connected and disconnected several times, then the screen went blank.
May this be because of corrupted fs or defective hw?
From my understanding with omapflash one have raw access to the phones internal memory similar to with dd on Unix/Linux. So currently I'm trying to dump ("upload") the emmc from the phone - actually in smaller chunks since omapflash needs to allocate all the memory in advance for the upload and to prevent interruptions. This will take a while...
After that I want to try to 'cat' the parts together and mount the filesystem - might be possible to do this from linux since it seems to be ext4 filesystems

[Q] DHD is dead? No bootloader anymore

Who think he/she can help me?
I was trying to completely clean my DHD for my girlfriend. So I wiped is all off via all the information on this forum.
Tried to flash ROM, RUU, Bootloader and Kernel. (after some advices)
Now I have a big problem I think....
I cannot get into my bootloader anymore, my DHD is starting with HTC logo and then continues with Android startup and keep hanging in there.
Vol. down + Power is not getting me into bootloader.
Flashing from CMD does not seem to work either because I cannot get the DHD to connect via USB. (cable is connected to DHD and laptop)
If you can help me.... my girlfriend and I would be much gratefull.

what i know is accessed to the phone bootloader it just have two optional way..
first...with pressing and hole volume down+power
second..with adb command while the phone is already booting inside the rom..and off course with already enabling USB debugging too in system settings..
if both way doesn't work to access your bootloader...i think the last change is you must flashing it again the from beginning with RIFF BOX hardware and JTAG software if you have it..or take the phone to services center of HTC..
sorry...can't help more than this..

if both way doesn't work to access your bootloader...i think the last change is you must flashing it again the from beginning with RIFF BOX hardware and JTAG software if you have it..or take the phone to services center of HTC..
sorry...can't help more than this..

I am gonna look where to get this software.
Going to a HTC service centrer wont help I think..... Isnt it like "changing the software yourself will exclude HTC help"??

the problem is you must find a 3rd party phone services placed on your country that are already have a riffbox or jtag hardware to flashing your phone from the beginning..

I cannot try this, because I dont have a RIFF box. This is hardware.

yap..RIFFBOX is a flashing hardware..
yes i know..if you already broken your phone cause of changing software by your self..htc will not recover your phone under they warranty
you already had loosing your phone warranty.. but i think that's not mean they can't help and fix your phone..off course without warranty (if they already know or detected that you already fault your warranty) then they will charge you with some of cost..
if so..with the hope of luck..then you can try brought your phone to the htc service center..then let they're analyst your phone and make decision about your valid warranty..who knows you already lucky then they don't know what are you already do it previously to that phone..
note : this all mean that's if your DHD is still recover under warranty by time..right..
hopefully your DHD will fixed soon..and good luck..
