my lads desire is stuck on black screen with white htc and white exclamation marks in each 4 corners , could anyone please help has he has come to me , but i have very little expereince in these matters so would like a tuturial if could be fixed
thanks in advance
I'd be looking at a fault attempt to root or flash a new ROM. I assume you don't know the software version that was originally on the handset by chance?
he was running neo latest vol 8 and s-off.......think he was trying to return to stock ....latest hboot..93
just tried rnning fastboo commander and it says he is s-on and non eng hboot, if that helps
So you don't know the original HTC ROM version he was on?
it was ....2.10 before he rooted and flashed custom rom
If it was 2.10.405.2 then you can get the RUU and get back to stock. Download it from here:
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
To use this, turn the phone on holding the back button and it should boot to FASTBOOT. Connect to your PC and once the screen says FASTBOOT USB (and once Windows has installed the drivers) run the file. It will get your Desire back to stock
*** There is a chance you were on the Vodafone version, 2.10.161.2, if you got the Desire from them. If so, you currently can't get that ROM ***

cheers Eddy OS ...all back and working now
big thanks to you.

No Probs! Just keep that RUU to hand in case it happens again
Hello,
I'm posting here in desperation, I really hope someone could help me.
I've recently bought a HTC Desire from O2. It was running Android 2.2 but I flashed cyanogenmod to it along with the latest radio.
Cyanogenmod worked fine but the radio stopped my 3G internet from working. In the end I decided to simply revert back to original setup using a RUU.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, the first RUU I tried ALMOST worked but then failed claiming a file was missing and that I needed to try a complete RUU.
From that point onwards I have been unable to find an RUU that will work - I constantly receive error code 140, bootloader version error.
Can anyone please tell me how to circumvent this error OR provide me with an O2 RUU that will work?
Here's the spec from my startup screen:
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP - 051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2
Please note that the only option I have available to me from the boot-menu is RUU - Any option to enter recovery mode is not visible.
Please please help me, thank you so much in advance.
I wish I could give helpful advice...
I'm gonna try though.
Download one of the latest RUU's from here.
Perhaps your RUU was a bit old?
I've only ever done RUU once, when sending my phone back for repair. I encountered another issue.
To the OP, which RUU are u trying to use?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
Make sure you've got a goldcard then do the downgrade. After that you should be able to do any RUU you like.
Lol just try a different radio. Have you manually set your APN?

Hi dehaani. In order to run the downgrade utility I surely need to be able to access my device (to enable usb debugging ) I currently can't get further than a grey HTC logo with exclamation marks in the corners? Is there a way to downgrade without the need to boot in to a ROM?
I've tried running almost all RUU I can find online, most of them result in Error 140: Bootloader version error.
I can't flash another radio because the only option I have available to me in bootloader is "RUU", no option to restore etc. How do I manually set my APN?! Would this involve access to the phone too?
Thank you all so much for your responses so far, please keep helping.
try again hope good luck
This might have been pot luck on my part getting through to someone who knew their stuff, but I had a problem when flashing Oxygen RC7 to my desire.
I had to ring o2 about another contract I have, used by a family member, and they asked if there was anything else they could help with so I jokingly replied "not unless you know about flashing replacement ROMs..." would you Adam & Eve it, the clever little badger only went and talked me through the issue I had come across on my Desire.
Might be worth giving them a bell if you cant find a solution online, I've always found them very helpful.

If you answer my question we might be able to help a bit more. this is the latest o2 UK RUU
http://www.multiupload.com/7YMY6RLCKY
I rooted my phone 6 months ago and 1 month ago it started restarting out of a sudden. Another problem was that it did not turn on the first time, so i had to get the battery out and try again to turn on the phone. When i saw that i decided to upgrade with the official Gingerbread Rom for the Desire. Now the problems started getting more and more serious. My phone remains stuck in the htc logo screen...it does not go into recovery and when i tried installing the initial ruu, to try to take it back to warranty it said that the bootloader version is not good. Any ideas how to solve this problem? I would really appreciate some help...
Maybe providing some info, like bootloader information, phone information....
Current Hboot is 1.02.0001, radio 5.17.05.23 and i wish to install RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed. I have tried to install the ROM by puting the rom file from the ruu on the memory card and renaming it as PB99IMG.zip. Once i turn on the phone in hboot, it loads the image and after 3 minutes is says "Main Version is older! Update Fail!". I have also tried to install the ruu by connecting it to the computer and booting the phone in fastboot. It said the current image version is 3.14.405.1 and the version I will install will be 2.14.207.1. After about 5 minutes in the install process it gets stuck in "Updating Signature" and after that the process stops and the following message is shown:
"ERROR[140]:BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again."
I am currently quite desperate..
Your HBOOT is newer than the one you want to flash.
You nned to downgrade it, which means you have to S-Off your device with revolutionary.io AFAIK.
Then flash one of the HBOOTs from alpharev.nl (downgrader) - then you can flash the RUU.

Can you please give me a more detailed instruction of how to do that? Where can i get revolutionary.io AFAIK from and how do i use it? Thanks in advance
Revolutionary (aka alpharev), from here
http://revolutionary.io/
Not sure where you would get an AFAIK, but As Far As I Know, it doesn't actually exist

Can you please tell me how to s-off the phone if the phone cannot start?i tried in fastboot but the software on the computer didn't detect the phone...
You need to be running fastboot in the CMD.exe...
You need to follow the guide for ADB first, then you can use fastboot to flash a new image!

Enable USB debugging and connect your phone to PC. Then start revolutionary.

How can I enable USB debugging if my phone gets stuck at the HTC logo? sorry for being such a pain guys but i am not very experienced in this stuff..
Did you manage to solve it ? I have the same problem , stuck with the boot loop issue after flashing Official RUU 2.3 upgrade. Only have access to fastboot, can't use adb to downgrade.

Yes, I had s-off with alpharev. The problem started with boot loop on alpharev screen. I flashed amoled RUU by mistake and had slcd brick.
Now I have installed the correct RUU but still either get stuck on boot loop or on HTC screen. Wonder if the system partitions are screwed up or if they can be restored without adb or s-off.
i did not manage to do anything. all i want to do is to put back the initial ruu so i can take the phone back to warranty. But i don't know how to downgrade hboot.
can anyone please tell me how can i downgrade my hboot? The biggest problem is that i cannot enable usb debugging because my phone is stuck with the bootloop.

Boot into Fastboot and then run RUU. Setup should see it.
I managed to reinstall the official Android 2.3 RUU but the problem is that i want to install the RUU_Bravo_Froy2_UK_2.14.207.1_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_144166_signed RUU. From what i have been told, i firstly have to downgrade hboot. Can anyone give me some detailed steps of how to do this?
If I were you, I'd S-OFF with revolutionary, flash recovery and flash a ROM.. when you're S-OFF, there is a way to downgrade... I just haven't got time to search now sorry
That's from my understanding that you re-did the 2.3 RUU and your phone now works.. right?
Unfortunately the phone doesn't start now either
but did it work before? have you tried leaving it for about half an hour and tried turning it on again? (I've seen faults like that). If not try the RUU again, then S-OFF - which makes life SOOOOOOO much easier
First off I've browsed the forums and cannot find an answer to my question. I know there are similar posts but not entirely answering my question.
Originally my HTC desire was running on official firmware on orange UK. Then I decided to root. I installed LeeDroid and then recently switched to MIUI. All I want to know is if I can revert back to how it originally was when I first got the phone. I cannot find anywhere an orange UK ruu. Is there a different one I can safely use and how do I do it?
All I want is all the rooting stuff removed not necessarily meaning I want all of the orange branding and everything back how it was
I want to know this because soon I am selling my phone and want it to be pretty much how it should be.
I am getting the phone unlocked to work on any network as the recipient of the phone is using a different network hence me not being bothered about the orange branding
Any help would be absolutely brill.
Thanks in advance
Well If you want the Orange Branded stuff back, then you need an Orange Official RUU. But I can't help you where to find it.
The HTCdev.com 2.3.3 RUU still comes with warranty so flash that to unroot. There are no Orange RUU's
Do i just flash as i would a custom rom hence going into recovery and 'install zip from SD card'? Is it really that simple? Does that completely make it like it was never rooted?
No its an .exe you run from windows. Connectng the phone via USB. If you are not s-off with a hboot version of 6.x, it re-writes everything. if you HAVE got the custom hboot, you need to flash the alpharev downgare.img hboot first.
Thank you, I will try this in the afternoon, if I fail be expecting to hear back from me cheers again mate
I am currently running AlphaRev
Bravo PVT1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
Radio - 5.17.05.23
However, when I try to enter recovery, I get a black screen with a picture of a phone with a red cross over it.
I am trying to revert to the stock bootloader to cure the recovery problem as I have already tried re-flashing CM7 but still get the same problem.
I tried to flash downgrade.img followed by the stock.img using Android Flasher but I can't get it to work.
Any suggestions?
You just need to fastboot flash the recovery.img
Have a read of my adb and fastboot faq in my signature. You dont need to read the adb stuff as it is not relevant

Awesome!
Android Flasher kept becoming non-responsive so I followed your instructions to flash via CMD. Now got CWM installed and working
cool. I prefer command line over the GUI myself anyway. Its more resiliant / less to go wrong.
To get rid of root simply install the latest, official RUU which can be found in the Dev Forums

I'm dead confused. If i'm honest I don't really understand what you have told me to do. ATM my Desire is running the MIUI rom (Latest version).
When I turn on my phone with the volume buttom held down this is the information shown.
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.17.05.08
As stated before all I want to do is remove the 'rooted' stuff and put an offical version of android on (preferably the latest version - if not, doesn't matter) I really don't understand the steps to undertake to enable this to happen?
I tried downloading and installing 'HTC_Desire_Android_2.3_Upgrade' from the website you gave to me but had no success. the program just keeps saying connection error. I've tried everything but can only get the phone to connect to my PC in data storage mode?? seems to be a common problem with the MIUI rom.
If somebody could please help me step by step I will be so grateful. Getting kinda desperate now. Cheers

Have you tried this method?
This is a pretty good step-by-step guide to installing the HTC standard 2.3.3 Click me.
You can download the RUU for this here: Click me. It is the download at the top of the page.
Simply put your phone into fastboot (power on whilst holding the "back" button), plug your phone in, run the RUU programme and done!
Hope that helps.

You'd need to find the original RUU for whatever CID your phone is and flash that onto the handset and then relock it.
There's a thread around here somewhere, try the search bar

I'm actually curious on this too, mainly for the sake of getting the OTA update and making sure it updates everything that fastboot flashing cannot, such as the HBOOT.
So it's not possible to simply install a stock ROM and just reflash the original recovery to have the OTA install?
You mean this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660807 ?
Could someone tell me a easy way to unroot and flash ruu on it?
On the tread i post above, I can´t download the ruu. It says its more than 500 mb and I need a premium account.
So is there a other way to unlock and unroot en put the original software on the one x?
Try this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZuAjz4PIjU
It did work for me, i guess i downloaded the ruu a couple of monthes ago.

just download, connect your phone to your computer with a USB cord, set it to "debugging mode" and "charge only" and run the .exe file

Hi! i am also having problems with my HOX im running the Cyanogenmod10 Endeavoru with Android 4.2.1 on my one X and it has caused me nothing but trouble. i tried to do the RUU thing and flash everything back to stock but i keep getting the ERROR 171 USB Connection Error. and i tried to do some research here more on the forums and i got confused if i can flash back to stock rom with 4.2.1 or not? because i saw some threads saying that it was very impossible and i don't want to go to the Service Centers to void my warranty and such. Can someone please help me on this please? i really want to get everything working back on my HOX and get the OTA Jellybean.
