Exactly same problem here... please help

MicroSD card reader!
I almost got into trouble on my phone once after doing this: I'd get stuck in a bootloader loop b/c my phone kept seeing the PD98IMG.zip file on the root folder of my MicroSD card, so bootloader would only ever give me the option to flash it, or reboot...which would keep me from being able to get back into 4EXT Recovery!........so I went out and bought a USB MicroSD card reader for my PC. That way, if I ever get "stuck" again, I can open up my phone, take the MicroSD card out, and look at its' content on my PC if I ever need to remove a pesky PD98IMG.zip file again, so that I can get back into Recovery Mode with no problems.
I highly recommend buying one. It saved my butt and proved to be a wise investment. Hope this helps.

Both of you have messed your bootloader installing either ENG S-OFF or a froyo Hboot....you have to fix that in order to have a normal working phone!

Stuck on boot animation [opendesire FroYo rom]

First of: YES I tried searching but didn't find my answer (prob didn't know how to search good enough ). And sry if this is not the right place to post, if so plz a mod move it. Thnx in advance
After not getting my OTA update today I decided to root my desire with Unrevoked 3 and it worked like but I still wasn't able to update the phone via recovery since it just wouldn't start the update.zip.
Than I decided to go for a rom and dwl OpenDesire FroYo and with Rom Manager installed it, but after it finished installing and the phone rebooted it stuck in boot animation (android with glowing animation) and now it won't go any further. Tried using a stock RUU but it said something "Wrong device". (info: I didn't use a gold card since my phone is supposed to be unbranded and unlocked).
Would be very grateful for any help or idea.

For how long did you wait when the X was flashing? Sometimes it can take up to 20 min so keep waiting. The animation, is it smooth or does it seem like it freezes and then goes around in a loop in which it freezes in the same place? Before using RUU you should try flashing another rom (dont forget to wipe & everything), after that use RUU but I guess you'll need a gold card anyway.
Good luck!
i always do a ADB logcat to see what's going on behind the bootscreen.
but for your case i think you need a ext3 partition on your SD card.

Thnx for your help,
1. I waited for like 10 - 15 minutes and nothing. I guess not enough :S :S
2. Yes it is that loop animation that freezes than re starts.
3. I would have tried to re flash but can't open sd in pc, prob have to wait till tomorrow to get a card reader so I can save roms in there.

ADB logcat ? ext3 partition ?! Give me some time to check what those things are . Thnx for helping
Yep, sounds like you need a EXT partition on your sd-card!
This is something for you

Report back if you still don't get it to work.
I just cleared storage via bootloader and it works. I prob did had to do this but at least now I have a working phone . Thnx again for the help .

[Q] How to unbrick my dead boot Desire HD

Hey Geeks,
I need some help and I bet that you could help me!
I ve used the search engine to not post anything someone did before. But there was nothing that could help me.
First I ll describe you what I ve done to brick my Desire HD:
My phone is rooted, S-OFF, ENG S-OFF with CM 7. After installing the new ROM I wasn`t able to install anything from the amrket. So I ve looked up for the reason and tried different things to sovle it. I ve read somewhere that it could help to add a partition to my SD-card. So I ve used the ROM Manager to format my sd card and create a partition.
ROM Manager asked me if I am sure bla bla... you know what I mean. After giving ROM Manager su-permission my phone shuts down. From there on nothing happened. (and still no patition on my sd card).
It`s not reacting to the power button, to the volume-down + power button nor is blinking my LED when I connect it to the USB-Port. Seems like it`s out of energy (but my akku was charged before I ve stzarted with the partition of my sd card).
I ve tried to put out the akku for several minutes. No reaction.
Removing SD-Card before pushing the power button: No reaction
Plug in to charge battery without hitting any button... some hours later: still no reaction
Formating SD-Card: No reaction
Then I ve tried to install the RUU 1.32., saved it on my sd-card, plugged phone in to start... my pc is not detecting my phone.
And now I am helpless
So it doesn't boot at all? Because if it doesn't, you are pretty much screwed...no boot -> no access -> no fix, but I don't believe that you can screw your phone up that badly by partitioning your sd-card.
Unless someone has a fix for this (and the problem doesn't solve itself somehow), your best bet is to send your phone to HTC for a repair, they probably won't charge you anything if it is still covered under warranty, since they can't really check for any modifications if it doesn't boot. It is probably a hardware problem any way.

The fact that it doesn't boot at all is a good thing for send it back for warranty purpose. But if you formated your sd-card, you lost root anyway. You have to make a backup of your SD-Card before you format/partition it, and then copy everything back.
And your initial issue was maybe due to an outdated version of Gapps...
why should he loose root if he formats his sd-card? you have root even without an sd-card.
if nothing helps to get your DHD back to life, you probably have to send it to HTC. but I think it's covered by warranty since it's (probably) a hardware fault.
btw, i think i've seen a thread like this somewhere here yesterday... i'll have a look and post a link if i find something
Edit: found it! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013582&page=2
look at page 2. there are some people with the same problem, but there is no solution yet.
But you do have CWM-Recovery on it don't you?
And if, can you get into Recovery?
Had similar Problems, once...
But my phone only showed the white HTC Logo and that was it....
What i did was the following... flashed Revory via Fasbootload from Computer...
Next, i formatted my sd card via computer and copied a new Rom.zip onto it.
In my Case, leedroid.
Next, i just flashed it and it happened to work again, luckily.
he can't even boot into the bootloader.

Hardware fault or not, rooting voids warranty. Let's hope that they can't inspect the internal memory.
Anyway, is the phone reacting to connecting to a proper charger (try to leave it plugged in for a couple of hours even if the LED doesn't light up)? The other thing you could try is to find a friend with a DHD and swap the batteries just to try if somehow you managed to kill your battery.
hi Sleipnir1985,
go back to your shop,
when did you buy it? they must take it for service, or they give you new one.
it is only best solution in this case
if you take battery out for 5! min, then plug it in and hold volume down then push power button - nothing happened, this is it, the end...
cheers/

yes, but HTC replaces your phone if it's a hardware and not a software fault. a friend of mine got his DHD replaced with eng hboot, radio S-OFF, custom rom and so on. and lots of people here on XDA also.
Here`s another mate with the same problem.
I am going to give my HTC to the shop this evening. Push your thumbs that I ll get a new one

I tried to unlock the bootloader on my device a little over a week ago - bricked it completely.
Had updated HBOOT and everything went fine - 'success' message appeared, etc.... Then my handset died and it wouldn't switch back on; it just flashed on and off repeatedly when powered on and I couldn't stop it, unless I pulled the battery. Couldn't access bootloader, couldn't do anything.
Took it to the local Three shop and they wouldn't touch it. So, I chanced my luck with HTC and was upfront about what had happened, i.e. I'd started the bootloader unlock process using their own HTC Dev software.
I've just got the 'phone back and they had to replace the motherboard. Haven't charged me for picking it up, via UPS, the repair OR sending it back to me, also via UPS.
I had hoped they'd ship back with the bootloader unlocked but they haven't! Doh.
Ah well, can't complain. HTC have definitely earned my gratitude, though, and I'll no doubt stick with them in future. I've just got to remove all the crappy pre-loaded software again.
so i basically have a bricked phone damn i needed it only phone i have n probably will have for awhile i had so much important #'s , notes , ext... im clueless to either tell HTC the truth or just buy another android phone idk :/
any ideas?? is it bricked or not i just need help why isn anyone paying this post any attention .. where is all the pros?

You haven't even given details. Did you root? Custom ROM?
Try flashing an RUU.
My experience
This weekend I bricked my phone almost also.
Just installed a new version of my ROM to test and then it hanged or so.
When trying power on (normally and with volume down), nothing happened and I got the 3 vibrates.
I removed my SD card and then the phone would boot again
I really hope I don't get that anymore
BTW: my SD card is really old, around 2 years or more (so that may be the cause)
Format your SD card, then see if that works

[q] htc g2 not rooted semi bricked boot looping please help

Long story short my friend gave me a T mobile HTC G2 because it didn't turn on. I opened the phone to find the part where the battery connects to the phone came off the mother board so i solder it back on put the phone back together and turned it on. It booted up normal and came to the lock screen nothing worked the touch wasn't responding so i push power button to turn screen off and then again to turn it back on and the screen worked. I tried guessing his pattern five time and it didnt work it asked me to sign in to my Google account when the screen came up the phone rebooted and it kept doing it every time i turned it on. So i looked on xda how to restore it tried it and im not sure if it restored or not but it strated boot looping. I tried the flashing the pc10img.zip from the root of the sd card it usually says something like version to new or to old or something it didn't work. My phone is not rooted and i don't think usb debugging is on. Any info you guys want just ask. What can i do? How can i fix it? Please help
I'm going to take a guess, that if the battery connection to the motherboard 'broke off', then it's possible you have other physical issues such as the ribbon cable connecting the screen/digitizer to the rest of the phone.
If it were me I would have sent the phone into HTC for hardware warranty (which you can't do now since you soldered it.).
Can you provide some specific information about the phone, can you get into the boot loader, and if so what exact information do you have there? (USB debugging would be easily turned on under system settings, if you can get into it via the screen).

Thanks for replying i don't think anything else is wrong with the phone all the cables were fine. To begin with warranty was already finished. "Yes", i can get into the boot loader/H boot. I can turn on usb debugging because the phone doesn't boot all the way in to android. When you say information what exactly are you looking for?

when you first had the phone it won't boot right? but when you tried fixing the battery connection thingy (sorry I don't know whats it called )
it booted and ran again?
have you tried doing a factory reset?
Power button+volume rocker down (volume down button) to boot into bootloader mode then do a factory reset maybe that would work ?

Would probably have to stick to the original Stock RUU update since you're S-ON (would need S-OFF for any kind of custom recovery, kernel, unsigned packages, etc), so would have to use a signed full package from T-Mobile, I don't know much bout that because I usually have my phones rooted and away from stock as fast as I can.
What stock rom did you find before? links?

Thats is the above link i used and i used all the ones that start with "PC10" I rename them to PC10IMG.zip so the phone can recognize it and it did. The only problem is that after it tries to install is say something along the lines of version is older or newer since i tried multiple packages. One package was going through the process and after that it didn't do anything, it didnt say failed or reboot or anything like that. Ive been trying to fix this for like a week and a half now. Ive even flashed custom PC10IMG.zip to see if it could help but nothing the furthest ive gotten is the phone boots for like 2 seconds the screen is blurry and the shuts off and there is an orange light in top right that wasn't lighting up before. Here are the links for the custom packages

You would have to much it to your exact carrier/phone, Just flashing whatever you get your hands on can be very very risky.
For example for me being on T-Mobile with a T-Mobile branded G2, I would grab PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b_26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971109
(noting the *.15 is the original radio my device was shipped with, though I've upgraded to the newer *.19)
I of course have no intention to returning to complete stock, but it's usually the only course of action for most people stuck with S-ON (and then would look into exploiting/unlocking/rooting again from there).

You would have to much it to your exact carrier/phone, Just flashing whatever you get your hands on can be very very risky.
For example for me being on T-Mobile with a T-Mobile branded G2, I would grab PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b_26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971109
(noting the *.15 is the original radio my device was shipped with, though I've upgraded to the newer *.19)
I of course have no intention to returning to complete stock, but it's usually the only course of action for most people stuck with S-ON (and then would look into exploiting/unlocking/rooting again from there).

Though ideally using an actual IRC client will work much nicer than a web chat one.
Same problem, but desire z S-ON
Hey guys.
I have the same problem with the boot loop /semi brick. Expect I never had any problem before, with the phone. I have tried taking out the sd card, starting it agian. I have tried without simcard. I have tried to flash the ROM with RUU_Vision_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.42.405.2_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_199043_signed
via Hboot Fastboot USB PLUG mode (which was the only mode the aplication was progressing in until it want to restart the phone in bootloader), but the phone frezzes and the aplication on the computer just keep working, without progress.
The factory reset just frezzes the phone.
The only thing reali seem to not frezze the phone is the revocery option. Here the phone react with restart showing a image of a phone with two green arrows bent around, over the phone. then it turns off the display and vibrate 4-5 times, og stays turn off not reacting to anything other then taking out the battery and you can start the phone once again.

[Q] Desire HD root falitrue

Hey! A'm new here (noob) and i have got some problem with my HTC Desire HD.
I tried to root my phone but unfortunately I failed.
I don't know why but it looks like my phone is briked... I cant run system. I tried go to hboot... it worked but i cant recovery and run factory reset.
Its strange but in hboot screen it writes me S-OFF so its look like my phone is rooted.
So when I try to run my phone (normal) HTC logo shows but it slowly turning from white screen with logo into dark. The same effect is when a try schoose recovery or factory reset.
Please help and sorry for my bad english.

So far, you did half of what you did wrong. this subject has been discussed in these forums over and over, so instead of opening a new thread you need to search and read. Factory reset should never be pressed as it deletes the usb debugging drivers, but you probably missed that part.
If you are S-OFF then flash a recovery from fastboot and then a custom rom..or flash a RUU you like. Use the guide in my signature to find out how.
Yes I know this thread is spam but my problem looks diffrent than normal. Bricked android phones got logo showed all the time but my phone after 5 - 7 seconds is turning into black but device is still working.
The problem is that i have really no idea how to do now. When I rooted it how can I install custom ROM?

you don't need root to flash a custom rom. You need S-OFF and a custom recovery. Read the guide.
Fade to black screen means that your PC connectivity failed way through the process and should have been run again from that screen as stated in the manual.
So, what I have to do now? My phone is rooted and what now? But i think I damaged software in my phone because i cant recovery system.
You are not rooted (you need a ROM to be rooted). You are S-OFF with no custom recovery. There is a section in glevitan's guide explicitly for this very issue.
I don't think you're listening the advice above.....
Have you got a recovery installed? Can you boot into it? If you haven't, flash one in hboot.
From recovery, flash a ROM
