HTC Desire won't boot past HTC screen

Hi everyone
Apologies if this is in the wrong place.
I've had my desire for about 4 months, rooted it using unrEVOked sucessfully and have played around with a few different roms.
i had leedroid on it maybe 3 weeks ago and it kept going in reboot cycles, which sucked so i changed Roms. last week it started to freeze occasioanlly with my current rom (i'm using MIUI 11.26). now it is just frozen solid basically.
It is stuck on the HTC screen at bootup. If i use the volume down key and power to boot, it will go into bootloader, but when i go and click recovery, it just reboots and does the same thing, freezes at HTC. So i'm unable to get into clockwork.
Any ideas? I've been able to follow instructions and am pretty good with swapping roms around etc, but i'm really stuck with this one
Any help would be appreciated. I'm also wondering if it is not software related.

mine just did that today, i tried to open a Gtalk message but it kept force closing, so i rebooted, now it wont go past the white HTC screen. i also removed the battery, same thing happens...not too sure what to do next
BTW im using the CM6

Is there any solution to this? Mine is stuck at the HTC logo too. Can't get into recovery and clear storage didn't work.
Anybody?

i had something like it i endet up whit download this Ruu update
.shipped-roms.com/download.php?category=android&model=Bravo&file=RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe

2. now in Hboot and Bootloader should be maked whit blue then push powere butten one time and wait around 10 sek. ore to is say Hboot USB Plug

[Q] htc desire vibrates and strucked on htc logo

hi.
my device was working perfctly until one day it suddenly vibrated and the screen turned off. i tried turning it on but it vibrates and hangs on the htc green logo. then the only possible way to switch it off is to take the batry out. some times it works normaly but not more than 15-20 mins . i think i was upgrading to froyo and wifi went off. not sure if that is the reason or not. really need an expert advice.
thanks

you have to give phone informations. radio, hboot, branded-undranded etc.

hboot: 0.83.0001
radio: 4.08.00.09
m in pakistan . dun really know wheather is branded or unbranded

anyway i figured it out. it is an unbranded phone. i tried flashing it with unrevoked. problem arises when the phone is rebooted it vibrates and hangs . so the process stops

Do you know if your phone has an AMOLED or SLCD screen?
Many phones with Hboot 0.83 and 0.92 are SLCD. Do you have the original box? if so, take a look on the back, and see if it mentions AMOLED for the Display under the specifications.
Tip: You will know if your phone is SLCD if it displays a black background in low light, at certain angles, and it will have a slight grey sheen to the screen. On an AMOLED screen it will remain the same black. If you purchased your phone before July 2010, then it will be AMOLED.

on the back of the box it says 3.7 inches amoled screen. is it a software issue or hardware?

it;s ok. if it is unbranded this http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...9.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe is the last 2.2 froyo official.
download it be aware that it is fully downloaded. put your phone in fastboot by turning it off and then press back button+power on.
After it finishes let it reboot(about 5 minutes) after that you can use unrevoked to obtain root and flash a custom recovery (i suggest AmonRa's). then if you want you can flash custom roms.

can we flash with this official rom even if our phone is s-on mode.if not how can we turn s-off the phone like this(which is not opening)

If the phone won't boot, download the ruu, extract zip from ruu, rename to PB99IMG.zip and then put on SD card. Boot into recovery and it should do its thing. Works regardless of s off or s on ( s off or on doesn't matter at all in ruus. Not related whatsoever.)

This is a step-by-step guide for Newbies..
One tiny bit of advice..
Though you bought the phone from a store, it is likely that it might be branded to HTC. Boot up your phone by holding the back key+Power button. You should do a "fastboot oem gencheckpt" command from the folder where fastboot.exe is installed. This will show your CID number, which can confirm whether branded or not. If you're absolutely sure that it's unbranded, proceed with the WWE RUU based Pb99img.zip

the problem is that on white menu there is no fastboot or boot section the only written thing is ruu

Do you have your original RUU file? Are you branded (if branded, you will need a Gold Card to proceed with the method suggested below) or unbranded?
You could try extracting the rom.zip from the RUU, and copy it to your Desktop, then rename the rom.zip to PB99IMG.zip. After renaming it, you mount your SD card and place it to the root of your SD card using a card reader or another phone that accepts micro sd cards, unmount your sd card and then turn off your phone. Finally, enter bootloader and let the phone run the PB99IMG file.
Also try getting into Fastboot by holding the back button whilst turning on the phone, it should work for you then.

[Q] Stuck at bootloader

Hy everybody,
I ve got a weird trouble.
What i wanted to do was to flash hboot so i went to bootloader and then i had to go and leave the phone on bootloader screen
without turning it off and with no power connected to it. When i came home again i noticed that the phone was off and now i got this trouble.
I m stuck at bootloader. If i try to get to recovery it fails and then the phone just reboot constantly
When i try to flash a new recovery over cmd fastboot flash recovery rec.img i get this message failed battery low.
When i adb oem rebootRUU i get to the black htc screen but when i try charging it turns also off after a while and if i try sending
the updated firmware it also tells me low battery.
Ok so i need to charge my battery but thats the trouble, when i plug the cable (over pc or power) the phone begins to charge (red light turn on)
and then it turn on my phone to bootloader and then after a few minutes it turns off because i think the battery is dead again.
Any good advice that could help? I m sure i could recover my phone again but as long as i can t charge it i think i m stuck.
Is it possible over fastboot or maybe adb to tell the phone to just simply charge my battery?
If im not wrong my cid is htc_102, if a RUU could help me it would be good but i don t really now which one to download for my
device. I used to have cyanogen mod 10 and i wanted to change to try some sense roms but i need needed to flash hboot
in order to get things working and now ..... u already know.
Thanxxx in advance.

Okay i fixed it.

Bricked Desire after wrong bootloader flash + stuck on hboot

Long story short, I flashed under the recovery console a wrong bootloader image(only the bootloader, nothing else). Now the phone doesn`t turn on, charging led dead, screen dead, everything dead, usb connection dead. Fastboot devices won`t give me anything, adb also nothing, in computer`s device manager also nothing detected. Any ideeas? Thanks!

I am afraid its a hard brick!

I kinda thought the same way. Now I`m hoping for that miracle with..pulling the battery out and waiting a few hours to "heal" to happen, if not it`s just another brick in the wall?

What "bootloader.img" did u flash?

You only flashed the bootloader? Not the entire ruu?
Unless you get to boot somehow, your phone is a genuine brick.

Yes, only the bootloader. Any ideea how to get it to boot?

Maybe a buspirate can revive a hard brick?

Alive again
So, I made it boot again, using jtag, reflashed the right bootloader. But when I go to hboot and try to flash the rom from the micro-sd, it vibrates a few times and that`s it, doesn`t do anything, buttons stop working. Tried to flash it with fastboot via usb, same thing, tried the RUU utility, and when it says rebooting into bootloader, it also vibrates and dies. In hboot it gets stuck at checking the zip and parsing. So, last night I decided to give up, but then I remembered I saw on the internet some heat related problems, although my htc didn`t got hot or anything, so I put it in the freezer at -18 degrees celsius for half an hour, without the battery and micro-sd. After about 30 min, I put the battery and micro-sd, and for my surprise, it flashed it from the micro-sd, no errors, it booted, got it working. Ok, I removed the battery and let it dry a few hours. Put the battery back, turned it on, it gets stuck in bootloop. Put it back to freezer for 30 mins, works flawless. So, I believe there is a hardware problem, more likely electrical contacts on the board, since i don`t feel any heat coming out from the phone.

[Q] Bricked? Stuck in HBOOT

Trying my hardest to flash my HTC One X back to stock in order to sell it, but am hitting brick walls (pun not intended) all over the place. I tried to install the RUU earlier, but it failed as the version I have is newer than the version it was installing, and with S-On seeminlgy it won't ignore that fact.
After this process failed, the phone has been stuck in a Hboot loop, no matter what i choose it reboots constantly to hboot. The phone is hardy gaining charge even powered by mains, and as such i have been unable to unlock the phone again as yet, is that something i need to do before i can get any further?
My current plan as explained by someone on here is to flash a nandroid backup of my CID at stock, but to do that i need to somehow get the display to turn off and let the phone charge, and hopefully escape this boot loop.
Any help appreciated, as soon as i plug the usb cable in, the phone turns on into hboot with the BRIGHT white background and all the options, so uses quite a lot of power / gets quite hot

Bootloader unlocked, flash this recovery asap !

Enter it and put the phone on charge. Leave it alone, it will charge the battery while the phone sits in the recovery.
If the bootloader is relocked you unlock it by flashing the unlock code.bin file which you got from the HTC dev site the first time (maybe it's still in your email)
