when switch on the power button or power+vol down
it goes like this.
send to HTC service???

These are the details we need:
1) Rooted / s-off?
2) What was the last thing that happened before it stopped working?
3) What android version / ROM is being used?
4) Does Hboot (Vol down+power) or fastboot (Back+power) Work when your phone is off?

-Hboot and fastboot can't!

Did you actually flash a radio? If so, which one? How did you do it? Fastboot?
Can you hboot / fastboot after battery pull? Remove battery 5 minutes then try again?

Does it go straight to the HTC screen when you try to get into fastboot?
If so, when you try to get into fastboot and HTC screen comes up, please connect to PC and run
Code:
fastboot devices
And let me know if your device is picked up...

now if i plug the usb it shows the same black screen with HTC logo
but if i unplug it shows

read the adb and fastboot FAQ in my signature. It will tell you how to set up. Download my files from there and do what it says in the read me file to set up.
Do not bother reading adb stuff, not relevant

after i downgrade so can i flash this rom? (sebastian15)
i don't know what's RUU?
ps. when i run fastboot my phone isn't in fastboot screen it's on black screen with HTC logo.

hey, yesterday i had same problem. just wanted to go to stock rom and i stucked on same screen. and windows didn't see my sd card. so what i did:
booted to linux ubuntu, somehow linux saw my sd card, with gparted i deleted all partitions and reformated sd card. when i downloaded android flasher 2.2 i gues and flashed original bootloader from alpharev.nl, and flashed rocovery img. when i started official ruu 2.3 and everything went fine. now i am on original rom and have working phone . but i think that main problem was cm7r2 hboot. so i think you just need to flash original hboot and run ruu rom. ruu rom you can get from second or third thread in development section. good luck.

try using RUU manually:
extract rom.zip from the RUU* and stick it in your C:\
boot into fastboot mode, plug your phone in and open command prompt and type
Code:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flashzip C:\rom.zip
fastboot reboot
*to extract the rom.zip run the RUU (but do not proceed with the process, just open it, do NOT click next, don't even plug in your phone for that matter lol), select "run" from the start menu, then type in %temp%, This will opened a folder with a bunch of files and folders, use the "sort by date" feature, and select "today". there should only be 2 folders left, search inside them and the rom.zip should be in one of them, amongst many other androidy files

don't use yahoo.. or msn lol...
alright I'll try walk you through it.
0. download the file I attached, and unzip it into your c:\
1. Run the RUU (do not click next)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. go to start menu and click "run" (or press the WINDOWS key and R as a shortcut)
3. type %temp% This opens up a window with a bunch of files/ folders
4. Use the sort by date function, and select today, there should only be about 2 folders, for me, the first one contains another folder, which contains the contents of the RUU
5. Select rom.zip and put it in your c:\
Once you've done that, turn your phone off, boot into fastboot (press the RETURN button and POWER simultaneously)
Plug the phone in via USB, your Phone should show FASTBOOT USB
Then start Command prompt (start menu, accessories, command prompt)
Type the following commands
Code:
cd\
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flashzip C:\rom.zip
fastboot reboot
***************************************************

Hello all,
a quick update,
as i could get into cwm I flashed CM7 (and the required radio first) and i seem to be up and running, albeit without sense (ui or common ).
does anyone think i got stuck in the loop because i was s-on with leedroid?

--UPDATE--
After much faffing around, i used the revolution beta one click s-off, and have now managed to get back too Standard Tmobile RUU.
Being the sucker that I am, I retried the Leedroid HD rom with no luck (hang on logo)
Using correct recommended radio, ext3 partitioned sd. cwm 2.7.0.5 (or is it 2.5.0.7?) rooted s-off.
Its a shame, I really wanted Sense 3

[Stuck] in CWM Recovery while rooting

Hi everyone, yes i have a DHD, and i tried to root it with AAHK tool. I know that many have success, but i failed.
Now i got stuck in CWM Recovery and can't get out. Although i tried all the options in the list, but it always returns the CWM screen.
I also tried to install a Rom cook, it said that Success, but then i return again in the CWM screen.
Here it's some pic

Here it's Hboot menu
This is when i try to run AAHK tool once more.
P/S: i've read the instruction of AAHK tool before action, my phone was pure, S-On, and run Android ver 2.3.5.
P/S 2: i think in the process, my usb cable wasn't properly connected (not my fault, DHD is a old device), cos i heard the sound of something plug in and out my pc many many times

Is your volume rocker flaw? That seems to be a hardware issue and not software. Maybe it got stuck and that is why it boots to recovery..

I don't rly know much of rooting a phone, but when i use AAHK tool, it asked me if i want to load some "RUU" file and install it, i said Yes.
If that is not what u're talking, please give some construction.

Are you able to boot in hboot? You don't need recovery to flash a RUU..paste the information displayed in your hboot here...
Ok, first download the zip I've attached to this post. Extract the contents, run 'Start here.bat'. Now, on your phone, go back to the hboot screen, connect your phone to your computer, and press 'power'. Verify that the phone shows 'FASTBOOT USB' in red. Now go to the cmd window that opened with 'Start here.bat', and type (or copy-paste) from here -
Code:
fastboot flash recovery openrecovery-twrp-2.4.1.0-ace.img
When it finishes and displays a 'success' message, exit cmd, disconnect your phone, use 'volume down' to highlight 'recovery' and press power to select it. Your phone will boot into this new recovery which is called TWRP. TWRP and 4ext are the best recoveries for this device. CWM is outdated, especially the version you're using. Now using this recovery, wipe your device properly by running wiping 'system' and 'factory reset/data' in the wipe menu, and then flash whatever ROM you want. It should work fine.
Note: If it fails, then you've done something and you don't have an S-OFF bootloader anymore. As long as your bootloader has the same top line as in the picture you posted, you're good. If you have run an RUU either on your own or using AAHK, and you have an S-ON bootloader now, connect your phone back in hboot mode, enable 'FASTBOOT USB' and run AAHK again. You'll end up with an S-OFF bootloader, and you can follow the above step.
Also, the sound of your phone disconnecting and connecting repeatedly to your computer was not a problem with the USB cable. It happens everytime AAHK reboots the phone, because the phone disconnects while turning off and connects back when turning on. AAHK failed the second time you ran it because it you already got a fully unlocked S-OFF bootloader in the first try. It only works if the bootloader is locked.

you can not use flash commands in fasboot as you don't have ENG S-OFF (do not flash the tradicional but the modified one in the Hack Kit)
Or flash the zip file in fastboot this way:
Boot in fastboot usb (check that in the phone is display that)
Put this zip file somewhere you can find it: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B2d8xxQzn5owMkpCQlBibkU2amM/edit?usp=sharing.
Open a cmd as admin in the PC
Go to where the recovery zip folder is located (in cmd)
And then type:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip cwm-5.0.2.7-ace.zip (when you get the OKAY in the cmd session you are done)
fastboot reboot-bootloader
When finished, you should have CWM recovery installed

Thank you, all steps has worked, but it seems that nothing has changed. The phone reboot and still stuck at the famous CWM screen.

Then maybe you have another solution ?
I'm still waiting for you guys :hopefully:
Yeah. If you still have S-OFF, connect your phone in fast boot and run AAHK. Choose the option to flash ENG hboot and flash the 0.85.2425 version. Once it's done, you'll see 'ACE PVT ENG S-OFF' at the top. Now you can do again what I said in the previous post.

Because you are trying to open he Hack Kit normally, but your phone does not boot so adb can't be used. Boot in fastboot usb and then open a cmd as admin and navigate to where the hack kit is located, then type:

That should bring the menu to flash ENG S-OFF...

[Q] Stuck..but where? Showing HBOOT, S-OFF information, etc.

Hi everybody,
a friend of mine asked me to have a closer look on an HTC Desire having a really strange behavior:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Direktlink
This is where it get's stuck but:
It still reacts on USB connects changing from 'HBOOT' to 'HBOOT_USB_PLUG' but navigating or selecting an option is not possible.
Another thing, making me wonder, is that this screen appears, after just hitting the power button - it's not necessarry to kepp VOL Down pressed...
Hopefully someone can help me out of this,
Thanks in advance,
Dominik
Setup adb/fastboot.
Download the 4ext recovery img:
http://www.4ext.net/ddl/bravo/recovery.zip (extract the zip), and put it in the platform-tools folder of where your android sdk is.
Boot the phone into fastboot (hold power and back), then use this command:
Code:
fastboot boot recovery.img
Once your in recovery do a full wipe and flash a ROM.

It needs to be recognized by fastboot not adb. Download and install HTC sync then uninstall it leaving only the drivers behind. Also install these: http://downloads.unrevoked.com/HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe
Then boot the phone into fastboot mode (power and back) and run "fastboot devices" to see if it's recognized. If it is follow the instructions in my first post.

Yeah, it's working, thanks a lot!
I tried to boot with "back + Power" several times.... but without USB connected...
EDIT: No, it wasn't regarding USB...
This only works from time to time, more less then more.. (hopefully you know what I mean)
Okay, now I have a way to get into the recovery, a big step forward!!
What now?
I'd like to "install" this recovery now, as I did before on my HD2 in the past but this is far long ago, so sorry for this stupid question:
How to replace the actual existing Recovery with the booted 4ext one?
On 4ext.net I found a way with a booted rom, but without...
Later on, I'd like to flash CyanogenMod 7, so I already downloaded the suggested PB99img_cm7r2.zip.
I remember this has s.th. to do regarding partitioning, right? What do I have to do with this file?
Can I flash this with fastboot ?
During usual bootloader startup it says "No image or wrong size"
AS you may see, I know a little, but it's damned long ago...
Sorry for my worse english, but I don't know how to describe this better
Hopefully you can help me anyway,
Thanks a lot in advance!!

Yeah, it's working, thanks a lot!
I tried to boot with "back + Power" several times.... but without USB connected...
EDIT: No, it wasn't regarding USB...
This only works from time to time, more less then more.. (hopefully you know what I mean)
Okay, now I have a way to get into the recovery, a big step forward!!

Use "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" to fully install the recovery. Rename the hboot(partition) file you downloaded to "PB99IMG.zip" and put it on the root of your SD card. Boot the phone into hboot and it will search for the file. When it finds it select yes to install it then reboot.
Go into recovery and wipe everything except the SD card then flash the ROM.

Hi,
thanks a lot for these great hints, but sadly I'm unable since yesterday to enter fastboot mode
System always starts into HBOOT - and dies, weather I press any additional keys to the power button or not...
Any alternative way to enter fastboot mode?

Today I never had access..

[Q] [q] Failed RUU - black screen with /!\ issue

Dear All,
I am digging through the forum for couple of hours but after reading number of tutorials and threads I stuck with no answer to my problem.
Here is the issue:
I have HTC Desire (Bravo) PVT3 with S-Off and Alpha Rev CM7 r2.
I Tried to Flash original ROM RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed. The process failed and I have ended up with black screen and /!\ in every corner. I tried to solve the problem with with THIS tutorial (POINT 4) but I did not succeed.
I cannot flash Bravo Stock with Android Flasher (version 2.0.0) as it freezes. Links to newer version of the flasher seems to be dead - so are links to number of other utilities on the forum .
Could anyone help me bring the phone to life, please? I probably (!) even have got a goldcard (it was created long time ago, never used even not sure if it was ever working). I want to flash any rom to make the phone usable, not necessarily stock one.
After unplugging usb from the PC, the phone is in ruu mode and displays following info:
Alpha Rev CM7 r2
Bravo PVT3 Ship S-OFF
HBOOT-6. 93. 1002
Microp-051d
Touch Panel -SYNW0101
Radio-4. 06. 00. 02_2
Date, time
Many thanks for any ideas....

I assume that you're after reading HTC Desire (Bravo) Troubleshooting Guide, Chapter [4]: RUU PROBLEMS.
Try another flasher, e.g. Universal Android Flasher v1.40 b.
Just use fastboot commands to flash stock hboot then run the ruu.
The command is -
fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img
The reason the ruu failed is because the system partition in the cm7r2 hboot is too small for the ruu.

In the same way that you read in bortak's quide.
First you need to be sure that you have the IMG for hboot and that through adb you have connection to the device.

OK, I have downloaded "Bravo Stock" from Alpharev but I cannot boot to fastbood mode (back and power don't work).
How to check adb connection or how to establish it? While trying to flash with adb flasher from the tool you have provided there is error: phone not found

Pull the battery out then put back in, then press and hold back + power Or vol down + power. /!\ in each corner is the same as fastboot mode. So when u get that screen, plug in ur phone and type the fastboot command
fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img
Then type
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Then run the ruu.

It seems I don't have adb connection.
I installed new Android SDk Tools as is in here [Tutorial] How to install Android SDK tool & HTC's drivers [BEGINNERS FRIENDLY], new HTC drivers "HTCDriver_4.2.0.001.exe" from [DRIVERS] Latest HTC Drivers [4.2.0.001] and Java.
When I type in command line adb devices there is none listed. When I try adb reboot command it says no device connected. Phone is in fastboot mode (black htc screen with /!\ in corners)

what can i do to solve this problem???
help me step by step
LOL I did this too.
If your desire loads an OS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1460035
Connect to your PC with debugging
Run nexus blackrose on your PC
run from command prompt with command 'blackrose skip'
you should get menu
select disable hboot protection
- You should get message about be careful and phone restarts to fastboot
Flash alpharevs bravo_alphaspl.img and you should be good to go
You MAY be able to flash bravo_alphaspl.img over the blackrose hboot without running the PC end of blackrose - but I ended up disabling blackrose hboot protection using the nexus PC blackrose frontend
You MAY find its partly trashed your recovery - so you may need to re-install whatever you have for recovery.
I believe to run ruu you need to have full htc sync installed (and probably goldcard) the opposite of everything else.
no os installed!

"Run nexus blackrose on your PC" where is link download blackrose files???
Then i doubt you can do anything about changing your hboot until you have
Just concentrate on getting a working rom installed, i would suggest cm-7.2.0.1-bravo
To do that you may need to get a working recovery I couldn't get fastboot to install pretty much anything in that state.
See my recent posts on this including an older 'working' but faulty 4ext via PB99IMG.zip (dont clear any sd partitions with this - just use it to load a rom then update via 4ext app)
First step try the 'clear storage' (with no sd-card in) option from bootloader
If after that still nothing, and you have no recovery,
try the following which ended up the omly way I could get a working recovery installed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29427407&postcount=17
to get a working recoverr installed but DONT clear the ext partitions using this, just use it to load a rom then update the 4ext version using the 4ext updater apk

I couldn't do anything. So i research in xda and learn some fastboot command. I used this command to go to the recovery:
"fastboot boot recovery.img"
And then i flashed cm-7.2.0.1-bravo. After flashed, i rebooted to system but i faced ruu mode stuck again!!!!
So i type this command:
"fastboot boot boot.img"
Device Loads system and now:
When i try to open blackrose.exe, i face with this error: (Attached screenshot)
"Failed to check device model"
What should i do now????
