Sd-card bricked?
No superuser in terminal for not being rooted. Search and read instead of expecting others to do everything for you because you ask so nicely, which you don't.

I tried other sd. Same condition.
I just rooted my Desire with unrevoked.
I'm able to turn S-off, but as I've no nand-backup of no-a2sd roms I can't restore. Restoring nand-backups of a2sd-roms via fastboot is doing well, but system can't boot in OS lacking sd-ext.
I used
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
It said Ok. But, I didn't see any benefit.

May help someone.

ok ppl basically fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 fixes sd access in android so you can copy the fix off the sd card to /data
pm me the cid of your phone (not sdcard) and i will make a specific fix for your cid

phew just tried that second fastboot command and it cleared all my problems up in under a second!
That were close
Thanks

you mean the command "fastboot oem rebootRUU" solved the problem??

I have a Bricked Desire seeking help

I was trying to flash a insertcoin ROM the other day and i failed to do so. I then just kept trying to flash the same file and wiping my cache and stuff in recovery. Then i tried another ROM but still didnt work; i formatted my sd card and after that when in recovery my phone says fail to mount sd card dev/......so on so on. I think my problem is that i have a screwed up OS im not too sure. i hope some experts can give me some suggestions to solve this problem thank you

It's one of two possibilities:
1) You've usb bricked your device. To solve try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639&highlight=usb+brick
2) Mis-formatted SD. SD has to have one FAT partition (first) and a second ext3/4 partition. Both have to be primary.

Do you mind to explain how to format it correctly then?

Read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084 at step five. It is on step by step how to format and partition your card. It has a video showing you exactly.

try this put your htc desire in fastboot mode and instal the ruu and voala the phone is back

sometime ruu flash can't fix usb brick if your misc.img is corrupt

final request for help after this if it doesnt work i will go to htc help center
this will be a video of my problem now, and i still cant get things to work....search um "My android problem" and you will see a guy in grey shirt thats me holding my sadly bricked desire.

Did you tried flashing stock RUU?

If your are still usb bricked after flashing RUU/pb99.img then try the steps below i fix mine that way.
after i unlocked my sd card via fastboot command"fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" sd card recognized by phone and i can browse it via file explorer.
note-you can access your sdcard only via file explorer nothing else so after execute the command download a file explorer from android market.
then i copied the visionary+(it gave me temporary root access which is needed to work this whole thing out).
root explorer,terminal emulator apk and those usb bricked update file(image_flash,mtd0.img) to sdcard from pc via card reader and installed them.
before copy those update file on sd card i edited the mtd0.img to put correct cid n rom info via hex editor.
after that i copied those update file in phone memory
/data/data/ and set permission for r/w and execute via root explorer.
after that i simply typed this command in terminal emulator
"su
/data/data/flash_image misc /data/data/mtd0.img"
Rebooted my phone and voila usb brick is gone htc sync,usb tethering,sd card mount,charge everything is working and now i am rooted and s-off again
Note-you don't need the rageagainstthecage file which only need if you try to get root access via terminal emulator which is lengthy n complicated but with visionary+ you can get root access with 1 click and it's much easier than typing command in T.E.

you are S-OFF
to fix usb brick you do:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig
done.
USB-brick fix thread must be updated, lots of S-OFF users struggle with mtd0 method while the fix is just one simple cmd.

It's not that simple if your misc.img is corrupted that fast boot command only enable your sd-card if it's blocked it's not gonna fix your corrupted misc.img so i had to flash the pb99.img to get back to stock rom get through the process i described earlier.

well in order to carry out these tasks ill need my phone to be detected by the computer right? I think this is why i cant get into my phone cuz when every i try adb shell it says devices not detected.

That's why you need to do exactly what i did as you are now stuck on stock rom with usb brick.

Thread how to fix usb brick can be found here on xda.

It seems you didn't get me either.i was usb bricked twice on s-off device first time that command worked but second time it didn't that's why i had to unroot it and go through this long process.there are other people like me who was s-offed but that fastboot command didn't work for them either for some reason.any way lets stop the arguing here it's not gonna help the thread starter.it worked for you fine but it didn't work for me second time

Don't type adb shell, just fastboot enable etc etc. in once, in that way it won't work
ps: you still have to do the cd C:/android-sdk etc.
But if you go into fasboot and if it says fastboot usb after connecting it's no problem just do what i said than

[Q] Think I've bricked my Desire, help needed!

Hello, I was happily using a previous miui build and updated using ROM Manager and it was going fine until the phone stopped being able to recognise the SD card whatsoever, so I tried looking that up, and was finding things about reformatting memory cards, trying different ones etc. I tried all these things to no avail, I am now trying to RUU it back to a stock Sense ROM in the hope that will fix the SD card problem but when I try to connect it via USB to the PC it isn't recognised at all. I've tried installing HTC Sync etc. I've no idea what to do anymore?
ANY ideas much appreciated!
Thanks~

You have a classic USB brick. Don't panic, it's pretty frequent. Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639&highlight=usb+brick

It says on that article ' SD card functionality has to work' at the minute the Desire won't recognise the SD card whatsoever!
When they are giving these instructions, are they assuming that your phone is connected to a computer and in the adb thing?
Thanks so much!

Retarded post: Download a terminal program and: For this, do 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' in fastboot mode. Strike that.
Can you boot in Fastboot ? Back arrow + power.
Is your phone visible to the computer in fastboot ?

Don't jump into restoring an RUU as you will really be in trouble then!
Trust me, I've bricked mine and gone down this road to put it right and it can be done.
Get hold of Android-SDK (Google it), get that installed and prepare to learn. In my case I managed to restore SD card functionality and thought I had won, then discovered that I still had a USB brick. Nevertheless, many hours reading and several vodkas later I had it fully restored.
If you still have clockwork recovery on the phone (I'm assuming you're using that?) then it's a pretty easy fix, don't panic! And above all, don't attempt to go back to stock as then you'll still have a knackered phone but with no root to recover it (although I doubt you can if your phone can't read it, unless you learn the fastboot stuff and flash the RUU before actually fixing the problem).
The thread linked gives some idea, there's also a lengthier one, search 'USB brick'.

And good point by paul.c, that would be far simpler but I've never tried it myself - although esentially that is indeed the command required to get the SD card working again.
Just beware that getting the SD card working may not be the end of your woes, you may then find (as I did) that USB functionality is broken and bluetooth doesn't work, classic 'USB brick' symptoms. Again, pretty easily fixed.

Yes, I can get to fastboot ok and the phone's recognised in it. I've been trying to use the command prompt & do 'adb devices' but that's not working it states 'adb' is not recognized...etc. Should I be doing the 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' in a terminal on the phone or in the SDK on my computer ?

My SDK is working fine for commands such as 'ADB Devices' now but when I go into Fastboot and give the command 'fastboot' it states that it's not recognized! Do you have to have S-Off for this to work?

Well... you start your phone.. by pressing.. Vol down and power.. than connect your phone with usb cable to pc ... open command prompt.. got to your sdk folder "platform-tools' and than enter ADB or Fastboot command..
But when you connect your phone to PC.. check if ADB drivers are installed.. go to device manager and check if your phone is recognised as ADB interface under Android Phone

Ah, I just looked in my platform-tools folder and there was adb etc. but I could not find fastboot. Where can I download that?
In the device manager, it's under 'Android USB Devices' as 'My HTC' is that ok?

OK, I have the SDK working fine, but when I go to this ( http://ks25738.kimsufi.com/misc/index.php ) website to get the .img file I need I can't figure out my kernel/ROM number - in the settings it says:
Android Version
2.3.4
Baseband Version
32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
Kernel Version 2.6.37.6-cyanogenmod-01494-g8dc02ff
[email protected]
Build Number
MIUI.1.6.17
The wesbite states the number should be 10 characters long, anyone know which one the ROM number is?
Thanks

You are once again trying to flash an RUU. Do not do this without first fixing your SD card problems.
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
and also
fastboot oem eraseconfig
Need more details on where you are at. If you don't fix the issues you have then flashing an RUU could leave you in a much worse situation than you are now, and where you are now is easily fixed!

Parva4 is right.. you should 1st try enabling your sd card....
what you need to do is...
first download adb drivers for your device...
power on your phone into fastboot.. by pressing volume down and power.. connect usb cable to pc.. and in device manager.. update driver to adb driver.. while in hboot.. and than run that fastboot command which Parva4 mentioned.

I sorted it out, thanks to all who helped!
I did the fastboot enableqxd 0 command to unlock the SD card then once that was able to be used I flashed back to a nand backup I had made minutes before I did the flash that went wrong and now it's working fine!

[Q] USB BRICK -fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 failed what can I do?

Hi,
Iam trying to un USB Brick my sisters phone. I s-off ed with Revolutionary, installed clockwork recovery, and unzipped Superuser. But now the SD card (I've tried 3) aren't recognised at all.
All the instructions for USB UNbricking start with the command ' 'fastboot oem enableqdm 0' from the cmd (I have the android-sdk-windows/tools folder in the C directory;and just in case downloaded Android SDK - but that doesn't seem to do anything, just hang in cmd window when I launch it).
The thing is when I ever I type 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' I get "FAILED status malformed (1 bytes))". I also tried another fastboot command 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' but again got "FAILED.. status malformed (1 bytes))"
I just can't find a solution to this anywhere - if there is one and you know that'd be great, or a link would be excellent.
I'm going crazy here - what can I do to get the fastboot command to work - and then recoginse an sd card. Any ideas? And, my sister is supposed to gettinga train this evening! Doh, why did I try and root her phone...
Help please!
Chees

this
10chars

Ah, getting there...
So, got the fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 command to work.
Said OKAY.
Tried the fastboot oem eraseconfig
Said OKAY.
Went into Recovery, tried to flash update.zip; no sd card! Ah damn. (file shows up when exploring sd card on laptop)
So,, thought I try the CID version and I get this info:
INFODevice CID is Super CID
INFOCID is Super CID
INFOBackup CID is ORANG001
INFOSetting->cid::ORANG001
So, now I am confused, what the hell is my CID now?
And can I use the CID Gernerator as in that post.
If it helps, I could see the SD Card fine until I partitioned it (with Easeus - then wiped - then tied again with Mini Tool - both times the parition worked, everthing worked fine when exploring with laptop, just the Desire seemed to throw it and alas, no more sd card recognised - have tried a couple of others too.) Blimey, I've rooted, flashed, etc so many times without a glitch, just didn't think this would happen. Sod;s law it happens to my sister's phone when Itrying to help (she has no tech knowledge!)
SO, again, any help would be great.
Cheers

Just remembered you can try something else..
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig
(this has to enable SD.. if it doesn't then I dunno.. I mean 60% of the time it works every time)
Then flash RMD Recovery (link on my guide), and use the built in USB brick function.
If you're S-OFF flash the recovery.img via fastboot
If you're S-ON fakeflash the recovery.zip via recovery
Also in these situations, try to actually give us the errors recovery shows etc.

Alas, tried both of those commands and nothing happened (said OKAY both times, but when booted into Recovery it still did not recognise SD card, and when booted normally still no joy...)
What next, well I'll get a cheap 1Gb SD card straight out of the box and see if recognises it -not holding out much luck though. After that, try flashing the RMD Recovery via fastboot? and trying the USB Brick option (what do reckon?)
Oh well, we'll see. Would it help if I could flash a new ROM? Can this be done without an SD Card being recoginised? If so, which ROM, and how would I do it (from fastboot?) - had run Insert Coin 1.1.14 on another Desire (still running fine) - flash that even though Sd won' be paritioned, would ot work? Out there at the moment...

[Q] USB Brick and can't mount SD in clockworkmod

Hi everybody,
I've been looking on the forum for over a week, and I still haven't been able to resolve my problem.
I tried flashing my HTC Desire with a ROM (on Rom manager), but it didn't work (it always rebooted).
I stupidly deleted all the data on the phone, cache, dalvik cache, etc.... so no Rom is on my phone now.
I now think my phone is USB bricked (it has all the symptoms such as not being properly recognized on the computer).
I can turn on the phone, the buttons work, I can go into clockwork mod BUT I can't mount my SD card in clockwork (so I can't flash anything through that).
I would really appreciate and help you have to offer! Thanks!

I guess you just need to run two fastboot commands:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 (unblock your sd-card)
fastboot oem eraseconfig (fix misc partition)

I already looked at that page and tried what you said and it didn't work, I also tried flashing the PB99IMG.zip but that also didn't work.
I then needed to do the process on the bottom of the page, but it requires me to use a file explorer app, and I don't have any ROM installed

any ideas?

are you sure you ran the fastboot commands correctly?
1) Make sure you have fastboot set up, if you don't, unzip the attached file into c:\
2) turn on your phone in FASTBOOT (either hold BACK and POWER, or select FASTBOOT from the Hboot menu)
3) plug the phone in via usb
4) run cmd and type
Code:
cd\
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig

Do you see your device in fastboot devices? If yes then follow bortak's guide. If not, you might have a problem

Hi,
"fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" works fine, but when I do "fastboot oem eraseconfig" I get the following message:

OKAY
It is written that I'm connected on fastboot USB on my phone, and fastboot detects a device as "SH09XPL05866", that I suppose is my Desire.
Any suggestions?

Yup, I wrote it correctly.
