I select factory reset option in hboot.
Then I can`t start android, I can`t start Hboot.
When I start DHD still white screen with green HTC logo
I dont know what can I do without Hboot.
AAHK don't recognice my DHD, appear:
***ERROR ERROR ERROR***
phone not pluged in
OR
Driver not installed
OR
USB Debugging not enabled.
***ERROR ERROR ERROR***
Phone is plugged, I uninstall all htc drivers and reinstall aahk htc windrivers, but I cant enable USB debugging because I can`t start android.
What can I do with my Desire hd?
thanks for all in advance, and sorry for my english

First off before you continue, STOP. Good news it is fixable, bad news that goes beyond my knowledge. Don't try anything else until you find the correct thread with the same problem, or someone else points you in the right direction.
After I have some lunch and do a few things I'll see if I find what you need or someone else comes in before that.
Apparently I'm in a good mood today

Hold down volume up and power button to boot into HBoot, from there you will need to install CWM and you'll be able to have a custom ROM. You will need SOFF and root access

Jesus, if you have read the WHOLE manual then u wouldn´t be here....STOP trying things because u eventually will end up messing your device.
Are u able to boot in hboot?....if so, just let me know and I will lend u a hand..

hboot run
ok, now I know that my vol- button is damaged, I need to push vey hart to enter in hboot.
Please help, I read the entire manual, I understand that must do downgrade because Im not sOFF and Im not root.
I put the PM98IMG.zip in the main directory of SD and run bootloader, but nothing happen, bootloader dont find image.
I format SD in FAT32 and try
SD checking Loadinf.... PD98DIAG.zip
No image
Loading PD98DIAG..nbh
No image or wrong image
Loadinf PD98IMG.zip
and after a minute it continue with...
Wrong zipped image!
Loading PD98DIAG.nbh
No image or wrong image
what can i do?

You'll need to flash a RUU before continue with rooting and downgrade.

Ok, got it running
So here's the procedure in case someone else has the same problem.
1) Find the RUU you need to go back to what you had before, in my case it was the 3.17 asia
2) Get the rom.zip from this file : start install and when it tells you that it is not possible go to your my documents/user/local files/temp folder, sort the folders by DATE so that you have the latest used on top and open it, in this folder there will be the rom.zip file
3) Rename this rom.zip file to PD98IMG.zip, send it to the root of the SD (best way is to get the SD out of the phone and do it from the computer)
4) Launch the phone in recovery (power and then hold VOL DOWN) the phone will ALWAYS try to check PD98IMG.zip and if it checks it will ask you if you want to install it, just say yes (for me it took all night)
5) when you're back to your latest rom, you can use the aahk, for me I had to run it 2 times but in the end it it S-OFF and then install whatever rom you want.
Thanks to everybody who has helped me on this

If You are not s-off and still in warraty, then You can flash the Ruu in fastboot. Get me the Cid number and i will try to find a working ruu

understanding the trouble and solving!!
Ok, I think you're right, I've been looking for what the CID of Orange Spain
CID Orange Spain -> ORANG309
I will try to find some RRU with this CID
When I can download the RUU
1 install to fet rom.zip
2 rename rom.zip to PD98IMG.zip
3 Format SD to FAT32 put PD98IMG.zip in SD
4 Start bootloader to install
Thats right?
A thousand of thanks everybody for help!
EDIT. I search RUU for orange spain, but cant find anyone, everybody write that dont exist. I found an orange spain backup for recovery, I think that must have the same CID.
I try to download and restore with recovery mode.

ok, there's no RUU for Orange Spain, so I guess you will have to use an unbranded ruu....if your volume rocker is broken and u still are S-ON why don't u take it to service? you might mess it a bit more trying to get it working...

of curse, but Its a 2nd hand phone with original box, headpones, charger, etc, I buy trought ebay and the seller dont give me the bill of sale Im trying to send mail,but he doesn`t answer my mails...
I download unbranded RUU, and rename PD98IMG.zip.
I put PD98IMG.zip in SD, and run Bootloader
Bootloader install PD98IMG.zip correctly but phone continue with white screen and green htc.
I try to restore from recovery an orange spain backup made by zhecloud from htcmania.
Revocery restore the files, but the phone continue with white screen and green htc.
I try to istall wwe RUU, and the program detect the phone, but can`t update it, say that search an RUU version compatible.

The CID was actually to try to see if there was a RUU for your phone. Unfortunately it is not. So, now you have to create a goldcard. For it you will need another android working phone and an sdcard that works as a goldcard.

I have a question
I have created goldcard to the best of my knowledge via process mentioned beneath.
But still I have S-on on HBOOT of desire hd
Process:
Have 2 GB Sd card & 8 GB Sd card. Tried both.
1. Format SD card by placing it in card reader. (tried with both FAT & FAT32)
2. calculate CID i.e. 1b534d303030303010073d25b400a9b2 for 2GB card
3. reversed it i.e. b2a900b4253d071030303030304d531b
4. replaced first 2 digits i.e. b2 with 00. gives CID reversed 00a900b4253d071030303030304d531b
5. Copied it to http://psas.revskills.de/?q=goldcard and generated goldcard.img file
6. Putting card into card reader and connecting it with computer via USB slot.
7. Open Hxd editor. Open Removable drive under Physical Disk with unchecked Open as Read only.
8. Open goldcard.img file from Open Disk image.
9. Copied all offsets of goldcard.img window and paste write it on Removable Drive Image by selecting offset 00000000 to 00000170,
10. Saved edited Removable drive image.
11. Removing and checking whether card is still readable.
12. Putting it back into mobile slot of SD Card.
13. Entering in HBoot and still getting ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
If I am missing something kindly help.

Goldcard won't make the phone S-OFF. Just will let you flash any RUU and avoid the CID signature failed. But you haven't flashed a RUU, so nothing changed.

So how do I know that Goldcard process is successful or not. Should I have to flash RUU to confirm whether it is successful or there is another way.

When you finished patching the sdcard, you should enter that drive with no errors at all...but that is not insurance of anything..just a good sign.

you need to take out the sdcard. the bootloader is failing because the stuff on it is too large or its a dud card.
using a different sdcard go to the "how to downgrade from hboot 1.02.0000 to hboot 1.01.0001" thread in the general section and download the package. open it and rename the 1.01.zip to pc49img.zip (making sure its not.zip.zip) and then put it onto the sdcard. put that into the phone and reboot to bootloader. assuming all is well it will find the "update" and ask you to flash it. select volume up to flash. wait for complete install and full reboot into stock rom. job done

nop didnt work, any other idea??????
i rename the 1.01.zip to pc49img.zip and then i put it into the sdcard
i start the phone holding the "down volume" boot into bootloader mode after 3 sec started
searching image.. image not found..image not found..image not found..
and back to bootloader without can move any button.
i'm 6 hours trying to find a solution even adb i tried but this not founding device cause i cannot debug usb.
plz HHhhheeeeelp

Your sdcard is incompatible (make sure its a genuine card, like sandisk ect and is preferably under 4gb) or you have renamed it to pc49img.zip.zip, if you are using windows search on Google for how to enable file extensions and see if its named zip.zip
Sent from my HTC Sensation using Tapatalk

im not that rookie
the file extension is correct.
and the sd card is 2gb from my other mobile(st15i)

Also, just because your card came from another phone and is 2gb does not mean a htc bootloader will like it. Sometimes they just reject reading from some cards. Nothing wrong with them other than the hboot simply not liking them. Try a different card if possible.

Please do not post private correspondence in public. Especially in the manner that it did. Please be patient when asking quesitons, as others do have personal lives and cannot respond instantaneously.

Hi,
I just have the exact same pb (except my HBOOT is 1.01.0002 and it is branded Bouygues). I had no SD card in my phone. At first I thought it was hardware because I found some other thread saying that this could be a short circuit resulting in power + vol down behing hold at all time, hence the bootloader and kesy not responding but it turns ou it was not it... So hope for you I guess.
* I download a RUU : RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe
* plugged the phone without battery
* put battery in (which resulted once again in bootloader screen)
* waited for the device to be installed on my computer
* after that I run the RUU.exe which wipped user data, did some other stuff... (meanwhile the screen went from bootloader to HTC) and at some point the instalation failed with a error 131 id client (because the version was older than the one installed on the phone)
* after that the phone restarted normally and everything is fine now

well, nevermind..
It works as long as I don't turn off the phone.... This is driving me nuts. I managed to downgrade the HBOOT to 1.01.1001, gained S-OFF with revolutionnary (couldn't install clockwork recovery though). I even run the RUU successfully but if I turn off the phone, next time I power it on, I end up on the bootloader screen and power and volume buttons are not working.
[Edit] I found more info in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354199#post58713960.
Instead of running the RUU, I can skip the bootloader by simply running the command :
fastboot reboot
I don't want have to do this every time I turn off my phone to make it work again. So, I'm still looking for a more definitive fix.

Actually I managed to solve this 2 days ago (I am pretty sure I already posted to say that, can't find the reply though) by copying a CMW 5.0.2.8 PC49IMG.zip (http://www25.zippyshare.com/v/70647552/file.html) file in my sdcard and inserting it in the phone.
I could boot the phone in normal mode without going through bootloader screen (even without flashing anything...).
After I restarted to bootloader (willingly this time) keys were working, it prompted for the update, so I could install CMW and after CM 7.
So everything is fine now thank you.

well, nevermind..
It works as long as I don't turn off the phone.... This is driving me nuts. I managed to downgrade the HBOOT to 1.01.1001, gained S-OFF with revolutionnary (couldn't install clockwork recovery though). I even run the RUU successfully but if I turn off the phone, next time I power it on, I end up on the bootloader screen and power and volume buttons are not working.
[Edit] I found more info in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354199#post58713960.
Instead of running the RUU, I can skip the bootloader by simply running the command :
fastboot reboot
I don't want have to do this every time I turn off my phone to make it work again. So, I'm still looking for a more definitive fix.

Hmm. When your in your stock rom does the volume buttons work?
You can install clockworkmod recovery by using fastboot commands pal. If your on your stock rom and dont have advanced reboot you can download an app called quick reboot and use that to reboot. We need to work out if its your volune buttons that are broken or not. If they are we may be able to replace them, or worst case senario we can disable them.

boot loop for no reason, unmodified phone

Hello,
I am no expert but i usually fix problems, however this one keeps puzzling me for a long time now.
I own a wildfire, not modded, not modified in any way. One day I open a qr code app, it decides to freeze, so i reboot. (i think i had to remove the battery) It takes about 15min to boot, doesn't respond to any input and then reboots and the cycle continues.
I have looked into several solutions for the problem, but all require me to turn S-off. But to do that I need to turn on usb-debug, but to do that I need a bootable image!!!!
At first i wanted to mod, tried revolutionary to turn off S, but doesn't work because i can't turn on usb-debug.
Then i wanted to turn off S the HTC way, where they send me the code needed to unlock it, but it said i had to first update the RUU and guess what:
"To install the RUU, simply follow these instructions: On your phone, enable USB debugging. (..)"
I do not understand what i should choose from the RUU download page, but if it helps i am from Italy. I tried the program and this is the output:
C:\Users\*user*>fastboot oem get_identifier_token
...
(bootloader) [ERR] Command error !!!
OKAY [ 0.007s]
finished. total time: 0.007s
I did all possible options the bootloader gives me: deleted all user data (losing most of my stuff i guess), I tried recovery too but it doesn't like the image. (which i have not touched or modified in any way)
specs:
BUZZ PVT SHIP S-ON
HBOOT - 1 . 01 . 0001
MICROP - 0622
TOUCH PANEL - ATMELC03_16ac
RADIO - 3 . 35 . 20 . 10

Hmmm. First off, have you tried to factory reset from recovery? If you boot into the recovery and then hold both volume buttons and power a usable menu should appear. Factory reset from there and reboot. See if that helps.
If not we turn our attention to your hboot. The error is because it is not updated enough to have that command. So we have two choices here. You can either upgrade the hboot, unlock your bootloader via htcdev and flash a custom rom. Or you could create a Goldcard, flash a ruu that has the same hboot as the one you have. This should fix your rom and enable the phone to boot again.
In any event you will need to extract the rom.zip from whichever ruu you choose. To do that have a quick google search for a guide but its easy enough. After that rename the rom.zip to PC49img.zip and place it onto your sdcard, boot into hboot and allow it to flash it. The golcard process should be covered in one of my downgrade threads or one of the others from this forum.
Post back here if your having and trouble or need a hand

Yes, i forgot to mention: i have tried all options in the recovery (red triangle thing) too (clear cache, factory reset) nothing worked, it says: E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command

To do this, i would need usb-debug enabled, so I think i cannot, but if there is a way please tell me!

To do this i will need a micro-sd adapter to put my card into my computer, i will find one and try it out.
I also read that i need the correct RUU for my carrier. I am not understanding very well what i'm doing, also no idea what a RUU is or where to get the appropriate one for my Hboot and carrier, any advice ?

All usb debugging is for is so that adb can reboot the device to hboot. If you google for how to extract the rom.zip from the ruu and then put it on the sdcard (after renaming it to PC49IMG.zip) and boot to hboot it is the same thing. Just without usb debugging needed.
You will need a micro sdcard adapter pal.

alright, after using the HTC dev method, i unlocked the phone, it still says S-ON but *** UNLOCKED *** on top, the HBOOT is now 1.02.000
after that i obtained the ClockWorkMod recovery img (i used version 5.0.2.0) and did in the terminal:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-buzz.img

good stuff pal.
when you are in clockworkmod recovery the controls are different. use the trackball to scroll and select. power button is now the back button.
I would recommend this custom rom as it is stable and has a stock vibe to it. just follow its install instructions and you should be good to go

Thanks, after many trial and error i ended up asking my hacker friend and managed to install cyanide mod.
However the same problem which i originally had persists ( it is very slow to boot (when it boots) and it doesn't react to any input, at this point it must be a hardware problem. This makes me very sad, i thought i saved it..

That suck man.
Hmmm. Slow boot times are normal on this phone to a certain degree. Usually 20secs to 3 minutes at first boot aftet rom flash.
Once the phone has booted up does the trackball still work? Could just be a damaged digitizer. They are fairly cheap these days. Look here http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/281644653982 and here http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/281644653982 fairly straight forward to install, but you could buy a used version of the phone for £30 minimum so its up to you
Edit: although, on reflection 15 boot time and constant reboots are not a good sign. I was hoping it was a software issue. If the trackball is functional you could go into settings, enable usb debugging and then get a logcat. That would at least give us somewhere to work from :-/

the trackball is functional because i can use it in clockwork recovery! but the phone doesn't react to it after boot, it's like it's stuck, i don't think the issue is the touchscreen, it used to work fine, it must be something else.
boot time is about 5-6minutes now, but after that it's like frozen, and after a couple more minutes it reboots. A big improvement, now the bootloop period is at least 70% shorter! xD

Lol! Well at least thats a plus :-/ theres not much else we can do here. We could try to enable usb debugging fron within clockworkmod by editing the build.prop and see if we can get a logcat but if the phones just locking up we might not even get one :-/

HTC One M8s propably bricked HELP GUYS

Hi,
i just got an HTC One M8s and i think its propably bricked. I don't know whats owner of that phone done here. Its Software status : Modified, Bootloader: Locked, and S-ON.
I can't turn on the phone, i just can go to bootloader option and cant access recovery bc its popably didn't exist anymore.
I was trying to flash RUU for my CID T-MOB009 but htc_fastboot says "data length is too large" and sometimes "remote:signature verify fail", and i was trying to unlock this bootloader with HTCDev, but when i clicked yes it looks like that(means 1st photo) and just reboot to fastboot in bootloader and it's still locked
Is there's a way to unbrick this phone ? I just spend like 4 hours of trying some tips but it doesn't work for it.

Yeah maybe there's a problem with the "Security warning" it shouldn't be there. What you can do is to reflash the RUU. But not with fastboot but from your sdcard.
Probably this is the firmware that you should use. I'm not sure though you can go one directory back and search for another one if that doesn't suit to you.
Now to flash it follow the steps
1) Download it and if you can check the md5sum so as to ensure it has downloaded correctly.
2) Rename it to 0PKVIMG.zip (note the first character is a zero and not a O
3) Take out the sdcard of your phone.
4) Insert it on your pc and format it to Fat32 or exfat.
5) Copy the above file into your sdcard.
6) Power off your phone and insert the sdcard
7) Go into the bootloader mode. It should automatically detect the firmware
8) When it asks you if you want to install choose "Yes"
9) Wait until it is done. It will flash multiple times the system partion. WAIT patiently
10) Hope that fixed it!
PS: When you enter fastboot you probably see some green letters. This means the hboot is searching for the software file i said above. If it finds it's ok. I had problems copying the file with windows though.

Yeah thanks for that great advice man! Unfortunately i was trying to copy this on Windows and when i try to Hboot that it just skip process (but stops for sec on a 0PKVIMG.zip) and going back to bootloader. Any advice how to do that properly on windows ? I checked md5 on sd card and its the same as on my computer disk and same as on this site what youre sent to me . Thanks for replies

I couldn't get it that done on windows. Dunno what's going wrong. Hopefully i had a linux distro installed and i copied the file from there. Maybe you can do that.
If you haven't installed any linux then create a live cd and boot it up.

Okay so now its the trick. I have done copied that properly, bc it start to loading when i put sd card. I click yes for update, and its start to flashing. Some of first steps failed so it wasn't look good. It called ROM failed to flashed click POWER to restart, and when i clicked it phone goes off and now its propably close to hardbricked cause i cant turn on bootloader. When i take it to charger there is no battery on screen informating its already charging. Only LED is working when charging and sound on windows when plug it on and off. Any suggestions guys? I'am scared now

Similar situation
Hi,
I appear to be in a similar situation with my M8 that I tried to convert to GPE. Something went wrong and although the ROM booted, I kept getting told my data was corrupt or encrypted... Tried a few reboots, and refreshed but still got the same...
A thread on here suggested formatting one of the partitions from TWRP which just returned an error, since then the phone appears to be 'hard bricked'.
No display, no charging indication, not recognised in ADB, and I can't force boot into recovery or fast boot.
However, I do still get the notification sound when I plug it into my PC...
It appears in the Device Manager as Qualcomm Mass Storage Device, and Windows shows ~20 drives most of which are unformatted, a few of which seem to contain system info...
I was wondering, would it be possible to re-image the Device? Given that the PC recognises the partitions, would anyway know what -should- be on them?
Alternatively, can anyone provide an image of a stock drive, partitions etc which I could apply?
Apologies if this is nonsense, but I'd imagine the reason it can't boot is the Bootloader partition is 'missing' or corrupted.
The same may be true for your device Mikkal.
Thanks in advance,

What is your CID , software version

No idea mate.. I can't turn on the phone so I can't check that..

For those who can't flash a RUU, unlock the bootloader install TWRP recovery, and install a custom ROM. Voila!
