and when I plug it in with cable to my pc my screen changes to a white htc sign with for triangles on the corners of screen!!!
what can I do???:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Relax you're not stuck. You got s-off which is the most important thing when rooting for the first time.
you can now flash a custom.
I recommend 4ext recovery
recovery trough adb/adb.
Superwipe and install a custom rom.
Will provide some links and such when I get to a computer

I cannot do anything! volume down and power doesn't work either!
when I plug in to pc and type adb reboot bootloader
it says: device not found!
how can I flash recovery?

Boot into bootloader and try to select RUU and se what happens. You could try to flash a ruu using the bootloader method. I'm still not home so try to read and see what you can get from this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396229 there is says how you can install recovery and rom through bootloader. Ask if you have any questions or if anything is unclear.

RUU cannot be selected. only place that I can boot to is this screen! in the guide you mentioned I am trying to do Reinstalling Recovery but I dont know if I can do it from this screen!
can I download another recovery? because I cannot download the one that they linked in the guide.

where can I find & download a custom recovery?

Download recovery here:
https://dl.dropbox.com/s/xvpefd1yccx81lu/4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC8.zip?dl=1
It's the latest 4ext recovery.
Rename the zip to PD98IMG and put into the root of the sdcard (not any folder ) and boot into bootloader. This is also covered in the guide i think.

I formated the sd card and put the recovery file in it but it didn't work!!
I still have the same screen
nothing works please help!!!
my phone boot to a screen with a white htc sign with for triangles on the corners of the screen!!!
snd thrn switch to the screen that i said in my first post

- Go into the folder with "dotnetinstaller.exe".
- Open the next folder. (like this example: {50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}
- Copy "rom.zip" into another folder (outside of temp).
- At this point just Cancel and quit the ROM Update Utility.
- Rename the "rom.zip" to "PD98IMG.zip" and put it on to the root directory of your MicroSD card in your phone.
- Shut down the phone.
- Press the Power button + Volume down button at the same time and hold them untill you get to HBOOT (white screen with skateboarding android).
- Wait for the HBOOT to parse the zip file.
- Follow the on-screen instructions and boot into newly flashed device.

can I flash the recovery with android flasher?

Did you try the tutorial i posted?

Try what muikkuman said.
When you tried to flash the recovery, did you place the pd98img.zip and then tried to get into hboot? Were you able to get into hboot?
If not you can use the hack kit to flash a ruu/return to stock.

I am not able to get into hboot! and the hack kit says:
Phone not plugged in
OR
Driver not installed
OR

but my drivers are installed

Hmm...

Uninstall the antivirus program, uninstall the drivers and then reinstall the drivers...some people have had this issue and its something i advise a good bit of the time and it resolves the issue.....

Or you could simply disable your anti virus program before unzipping ace hack kit and use the htc drivers contained in the hack kit.

TELUS HTC DESIRE - Boot Loop Problem - Help! :D

Hello!
I have an HTC Desire that is stuck in bootloop. Anytime i boot the phone up it only reaches the HTC Logo then either gets stuck at the logo or cycles through the boot to logo.
It is through Telus and is no longer under warrenty. What options have worked in order to fix this? Telus support was less then supportive.
I have seen quite a bit of information on this forum and i am unsure which method might be best for my scenario. Any help would pointing me in a direction would be greatly appreciated
Im not sure what information i should post, so if there is something that is needed please ask and i will provide!

Boot into hboot (turn the phone off, then turn it back on using volume down and power). Then post everything that it shows there here.
Have you done anything to the phone like flashing a custom recovery, root, roms, etc, or is everything stock?

Download the 2.3 RUU here. Then copy it to the root (not inside any folder) of your sd card. Also DONT rename it (leave it as PB99IMG.zip)
Boot the phone into hboot and it will search for the file. When it finds it, it will ask if you want to install. Press volume up to say yes, then after its finished press volume up again to reboot.

Also if eveything goes well with flashing the ruu, i would recommend s-offing the phone. It will be useful later if you run into other issues.

S-off allows you to write onto partitions that you normally are unable to. This could be useful for example if u needed to flash a recovery or upgrade radio. Its also quite easy to do with revolutionary so I don't any reason not to do it.

You don't have to do anything to load it. when you boot into hboot it will automatically look for it and tell you if it finds it. All u need to do is press volume up after it finds it.

Weird, it should at least look for it. Are u 100% sure that it doesn't search for it? Try rebooting into hboot again.
If you're sure that its not working then you can try running the exe ruu.

No Image or wrong image!
Plus a few more lines, but it goes so fast its hard to read it.
I dont think i can manually execute the .exe because i cant reach the phone through usb via my computer.
Also hope your dry wherever you are!

Ok well since this way isnt working you should try running the windows exe version of the ruu (a bit more of a pain)
First download these drivers and install them.
Then download the ruu. Boot the phone into hboot then go into fastboot, and once in fastboot connect the phone to your pc. Once its connected and the phone is recognized run the ruu. Make sure you have enough battery and dont interrupt the process or bad things will happen.
lol im dry, but my power looks like its going to go out soon

Ok, i downloaded the HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe and ran it. It installed the drivers. I booted into hboot, selected Fastboot and connected the USB. At the top of Fastboot, it how has Fastboot USB. The Andriod 1.0 driver said it installed, however i cant see the device in My Computer.
Does this sound ok so far?
Q 2) Once the RUU downloads, do i execute the .exe on my computer, or do i move it to the sd card and execute it from there?
Sorry, just want to make sure i do this correct haha.
Man its raining crazy out there

Sounds good. If you really want to make sure that the drivers are installed correctly and its recognized you can setup adb/fastboot. Then plug the phone in while in fastboot mode and type "fastboot devices" from a command prompt on your pc. If your phones serial number shows up then everything is good to go.
You run the exe from your computer, you dont move it to the sdcard.

Ran the RUU and i cant seem to get it to recognize the connection from usb to phone.

Was there an error? Did you try setting up fastboot and running "fastboot devices" while in fastboot mode to see if it is recognized?
Also i forgot to ask, but what caused this problem in the first place?

[Q] Impossible to install new radio

I have literally tried everything, tried to flash it via the recovery and tried to install it via adb/fastboot.
I can't seem to install the drivers, it always fails and the device never gets recognized.
I have tried installing the drivers via HTCSync, via PDAnet, some found on this forum, none worked...

Not quite.. for that method the zip has to be named PB99IMG.zip and also has to have only radio.img & android-info.txt inside the zip file, and has to be on the root off ur sdcard (not in a folder)

How does it not install? Be more specific.
Also you should setup adb, and put the phone into fastboot mode (power off, then boot back up using back + power). Then run the command "fastboot devices"

Just tried this whole procedure in windows 7, worked like a charm, It reminds me again how bad Windows 8 is for development....
Thanks for the info anyway!

It appears to not install under windows 8, in windows 7 there were no errors, but there was no movement of the progress bar either.
After some time the window just closed.
I then plugged in the phone and windows started installing drivers, flashing the radio went without a problem, but I have no idea if the driver installed or the drivers windows installed did the trick.

[Q] Will I save my htc Desire?

Dear all,
I have been looking around the forums and downloaded a few things and looked at various solutions, but I am stuck at the first hurdle.
I have been given an htc Desire Bravo that just will not boot. I do not know how it failed originally but I can only get it into the boot screens, either the fastboot/hboot logon ot the 5 buzzes and the htc logo lock. Also it takes about 30 minutes with the battery out after every failed boot attempt to restart the boot screen.
I have run adb but it cannot tell me a cid number, I have a micro sd card in it but it does not have the pb99diag.zip on it. When I put such a file on the sd card it does not find it. Communication via adb and the phone has varied success. I suspect it is drivers and what I read is an old adb bug where server is out of date.
I have never done this before this weekend so please be gentle with me!
If I can get it to work, even to use it like a wifi tablet without phone I would be happy. I am in the UK and if we have real success I would get it on tesco PAYG
I get the "cannot find pb99diag.zip etc" dialogue when going into hboot.

If u phone does not boot then u can NOT s-off, ur phone needs to be booted.. also if ur s-on and not rooted then all u can do is flash a ruu.
Did u try factory reset from bootloader menu? Try that first, u never know but chances r ul prob need to ruu a ruu.

Hi jmcclue,
Thanks for the comments. I can boot to the HBoot and Fastboot screens, thats how I could find the S-ON and version data. If I get it to reboot, I get either a white screen with just "htc" on it, or 5 buzzes and a screen with no life at all. I am hopeful to get it to S-OFF as I have had some communication through the usb to pc connection. I am not sure if I can do an RUU update as I don't seem to have a CID. I do not have a factory reset option on the HBOOT screen. I have tried clear storage but that has no effect. Perhaps I need the S-OFF first.
Cheers again,
A

Use the 2.3gb update ruu its wwe (world wide english) so dont worry bout cid. U can find it in bortaks troubleshooting guide in resources section and its naned 2.3.3 ruu. U will find it easy enough in google aswell. Search for "htc desire 2.3gb update" its a exe file so just boot ur phone into fastboot, plug in ur phone and run the ruu, hopefully it willvwork. Im a bit worried tho about the 5 vibrations u get, maybe a sign of hardware failure. But try that ruu anyway. And again u can not get s-off unless ur phone is fully working/booted.

Well that was a bit wierd
If anyone can see where I went wrong, feel free to say.
I could not seem to get the link between the phone and the pc so I removed the htc sync and restarted the pc. I could then connect to the phone in some way as abd gave a command error when I sent a fastboot oem readcid which it normally does. So leaving it in fastboot with usb I ran the wwe~.exe file and it all seemed to be doing installing. There were tens of installations going to the phone I guess each reaching 100%. Suddenly I had a web page popup in my browser s.rev2pub.com/ul_cb/player.html?a=19471543&context=c23573548&size=800x600&rt=popunder&ci=10&cb=[CACHEBUSTER] recommending I download latest drivers. The wwe ruu vanished and I have no continuing processes in Task manager that I can see.
So, should I have installed in hboot? Thankfully I can still get the phone to power on. What should happen after the exe file installs?
I am able to get some response from the phone as adb devices returns the phone device number. So I hope I can try again.
Any thoughts?
Many thanks

Hey Adrian, I had the same problem as you did, hopefully I can be of help.
First, like everyone else is saying you will need S-OFF.
To do this head to this site on your PC revolutionary.io hit download for windows or Linux or whatever your pc is running, then you will need to fill out information about your device (see attached screenshot). Device, HBoot number, and serial number, (the serial number can be found behind the battery of your device). Once you have done that, click "Generate Key". it will give you a key, remember it or write it down.
Then, open the file that was downloaded, and extract the contents to your documents and Run the revolutionary( should look like the screenshot attached). Plug your device in (assuming you have the drivers) and it should ask you to enter the beta key we had before. Enter that and hit enter. it will then S-off your Desire and soon ask if you would like to install a custom recovery. hit Y and then enter, once that is finished, unplug your device and in HBoot go to "Recovery". Now you can flash a ROM of your choice.
Hopefully I made sense!
Best of luck

Thank you Neibaf97
Can I confirm that I can do this from the HBOOT screen or the fastboot screen? Also where jmmclue said if I can't boot then I can't S-Off, does that mean boot to the HBOOT screen or into Android? Then if I want to load say WWE, do I put that on a microSD to get it to recover?
thanks again

Thanks lilsafbig, that was a little too ambiguous to understand, but I have a few developments.
I am able to communicate to some degree with adb between phone and pc. Before I was unable to get anything back but now with the right syntax I have got back the CID as HTC_001 and the device number. But when I run revolutionary from the fastboot USB screen the revolutionary continues to wait for the device to show. Is it likely that USB degugging was off prior to the failure, is there a way to get it on. I suggest this as when I connect it to my pc it recognizes the device and shows in the device manager as an htc unspecified device (this is progress). As I cannot boot android it does not show as an additional drive in file manger. when I try some of the fastboot oem commands I get bad command errors, whilst fastboot getvars is ok. Could this be why I cannot get revolutionary to S-OFF!
Thanks

additional info, when usb is in an in fastboot usb, the device manager sees it as android 1.0

If you can still get to bootloader / fastboot screen, then you are rarely ever bricked.
1. Ignore anything and everything to do with revolutionary and fastboot for now. I'm afraid the first few posts while trying to be helpful have been misleading. Get your phone booting up into Android OS first, i.e. into a stock ROM using an RUU
2. Use the 2.3.3. GB RUU, nothing else, it doesn't need a goldcard or care about CID etc.
3. Download it from the bottom here, then use Bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A, Point [7] to run it as a PB99IMG.zip from the root of your sdcard. That way you don't need to run it through USB or care about what drivers are installed.

Thank you Eddie, I will try that. I did try flash a PB99IMG.zip before with no success but I will try again.
I found it here Official Stock Sense Gingerbread_v1.2 GB-2.3.3_A2SD – http://androidba.se/J7 for desire (neophyte)
I hope it can work out ok. I guess I format the sd card to fat32 not ext4
Will let you know how it goes.
Thanks,
A

That's a custom rom.
Here's the link for the 2.3.3 ruu.

That did not work because the file is not an RUU...it is a stock rooted custom ROM with A2SD (the clue is in the name). It is designed to flashed in recovery like any other ROM. Renaming it to PB99IMG.zip won't do anything.
Use the actual shipped roms RUU link provided.
Reformat your sdcard to a single FAT32 partition if necessary, then follow Method [7] of the guide, place only the PB99IMG.zip on the root of the sdcard (not in any folder)

[Q] How To Change HTC Desire Splash Screen

After countless of hours trying I gave up and decided to seek help.
I want to change the Alpha Rev splash back to the stock HTC splash.
Tried countless methods from Android Flasher, HTC Sync, ADB Universal Drivers, flashing from bootloader (but he doesn't even recognize the zip on the SD card), trying to install from Google USB Drivers, changing USB ports...but my PC just doesn't recognize my phone.
I have no issues otherwise sending and receiving files when I plug it in and it mounts the SD card like a normal partition but ADB just won't see my device. Commands like "adb devices" or "fastboot devices" didn't work.
I got the response from adb once when the phone's SD card was mounted in Windows 8.
Code:
C:\android-sdk\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
SH0CDPL00216 device
Here are some more details from the bootloader about the phone:
Code:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
Aug 10 2010, 17:52:18
I'm using CarbonROM and 4EXT Recovery.
I consider myself teksavvy but phones I don't know nothing about.
It was a long time ago when I rooted this phone using Alpha Rev 1.8.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

So you need to install hboot drivers.
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/windows_hboot_driver_install
The file link doesn't work anymore. Use this one:
http://androidrooting.wikispaces.com/HBOOT+drivers+(from+Unrevoked+team)
And then, after you install them, select "fastboot", and use the command:
fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img
From your command prompt.

Also look at bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A
Step [12]

Thanks for responding!
I downloaded the android-usb-driver.zip from the link and followed instructions but it didn't work.
I've attached the image of my Device Manager since I can't post external links.
I've tried the ones with the yellow exclamation mark, first one said it couldn't find any drivers the other one said it's already up to date.
If you're wondering, I've uninstalled all previous drivers like the HTC Sync ones. Purged it with fire.

I've read that guide. It's great but it didn't help.

Your issue is to do with drivers.
People have had a lot of issues on Windows 8. Do you have another machine with Windows 7 to try it? Should be easier.
Get 'fastboot devices' working first, then you can flash things using fastboot.

- You do need to select fastboot from bootloader screen
- Then connect the phone, it should say 'Fastboot USB' or similar on the screen
- Test 'fastboot devices' as above
- You do not flash a zip file, it should be a converted splash1.img file as per the guide
- The .img file should not be on your sdcard, it should be on your PC, easier from the \sdk folder where fastboot.exe is located.

Unfortunately this is my only PC and it has Windows 8.1.
I did everything as said so far, FASTBOOT and HBOOT display the USB message but it disappears after Windows doesn't recognize the phone. I did reboot my phone countless times and rebooted Windows.
The flashing the zip file was some other method from another post, nothing to do with this.
I just mentioned it with the other methods I tried.
I do indeed have the original HTC splash file, downloaded from Alpha Rev website.

Never had to connect phone with Windows 8, so no real experience
I found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1961823
Someone else with Windows 8 would probably have got the drivers working somewhere if you keep looking.

Since ur s-off u can try PB99IMG method, i tried it on my desire s ages ago and it worked. Just nandroid back up first then post ur splash1.img here and il make it

I tried the same method with a similar zip file name structure, can't remember what it was exactly but the bootloader didn't read it.
Maybe this one is different. I've attached the splash image. Thanks!

Here ya go bud, download the PB99IMG and put it on the root of ur sdcard (not in a folder) boot into bootloader, it will ask to update, vol up for yes and thats it dont forget to delete the file off ur sdcard or everytime u boot into bootloader it will ask to update. i also made a black htc splash screen with green htc, just rename that file to PB99IMG
