Hi,
2 days ago I flashed Pinky Desire 0.7 ROM on my Desire, worked fine so long.
But an hour ago, I wanted to wake up my phone out of Standby but there wasn't any reaction... so I took off the battery and rebooted - 10 minutes later it was still in the HTC Bootscreen (white background, green HTC logo)... so I went into the Recovery menu and wiped data (factory reset) and Cache partition...
Rebooted again - now it's stuck in the android bootscreen (black background, silver android logo...) and I don't know what to do...
Any help!?
Have you tried to flash the ROM and the wipe and reboot phone?

How do I flash the ROM? I don't got it on my sd-card anymore and in the recovery there's only the option to apply an update.zip... :/
I did a full wipe... after that, there was the android bootscreen and not anymore the one by HTC.
Hmmm. Download the ROM. Get a memory card reader and put it in the root of the card. Put the card back into the phone. Boot into recovery and flash it?

Not sure if this is any help but if you look for a post by dnlgee he has some links in his signature and, although I haven't used it, his link to adb for windows may be of help to you. I think it will allow you to push a Rom onto your SD card if you connect your desire to your pc via usb.

I rooted the phone again with unrevoked3 to get clockworkmod recovery...
I tried to format the SDCard - couldn't mount... mount SDCard - couldn't mount.
Does this mean that the SDCard isn't working anymore? I found a microSD-Adapter 10 Minutes ago and the microSD couldn't be mounted by windows too...
So I gotta buy a new one, right?
/edit: @iain: well, thank you, I read this few minutes before you posted - too high for me, sorry. but thanks
Would it fix the issue if I would buy a new SD-Card tomorrow? I wanted a bigger one anyway, so that would be the easiest way, wouldn't it?
I've got the same problem. After i used te unrevoked en flashed the opendesire 4.04 rom, it hangs in the silver android boot screen. I flashed, recoverd again with the opendesire rom but still the same. Could it be the radio rom i have?
Thanks for the help.
Have you checked with adb logcat what your phone is actually doing. Usually when I flash a new ROM (i.e. with full wipe) the 1st boot takes "a long time" (5-10 minutes).
Hi all,
I'll give a quick outline here then go into more detail below if you need it. i've tried things suggested in the other bricked htc threads but none seem to work.
I've basically follwed the root guide at droiden, made a gold card and rooted my htc desire phone which went ok. problem was i then installed the suggested rom in the tutorial which was for an amoled screen but i 've got an slcd screen (i'm thick).
The upshot is my htc desire will only start up sometimes and when it does just goes to a loading screen with a bright colourful x then switches off. holding volume down and power or back and power doesn't bring up the boot menu or fast boot. i've tried to flash from one of the ruu.exe files but it just keeps saying my phone has less than 30% charge (it doesn't) and quits the ruu. Is there any way to recover my phone via another method? I've got the coldcard used to root the phone.
Many thanks
Detailed description
i've basically followed the guide to root here at droiden
and installed the rom here de frost rom it suggests.
rooted fine then i flashed the rom (the de_frost one suggested in the tutorial) - got stuck on a colourful X screen and now won't turn on. it'll only turn on if i connect to a pc and open unrevoked but then it just boots to the colourful x screen until it goes off and then i'm back to the begining.
going off that other thread it sounds like i've used the amoled rom when i've not got an amoled screen.
to make matters worse i've followed these two steps here in other threads on here which suggested a new ota or ruu. ota wais a broken link and with ruu.exe i get an error saying my battery is below 30% (it's not) and so it won't go any further.
are there any other options available to me to restore my phone bearing in mind that volume down and power doesn't bring up the boot screen (just white htc screen then colourful X screen) so i can't even do a hard reset that way. Not bothered about wiping the phone's memory just want to get it back so i can start from scratch with the right rom. i have the gold card used to root the phone.
any help appreciated - thanks.

ok i did it and it worked first time - it let me get to the boot screen but then after it rebooted it just won't switch on at all now.
any ideas?
Did you let it run till the phone booted?
Take the batt out for a min and pop back in and try. And also make sure you got a good charge
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
yeah it said it was rebooting but then never came back on. i'll give it a good charge and try again.
right it will now turn on everytime but won't go to the boot screen. Volume down power and back power just start it up and it sticks on the loading screen with the x for hours.

ok for some reason after 24 hours of trying it will now let me go into the boot screen
for some reason i left the room and came back and it's working.
i've no idea what has happened.
it's completely debranded and rooted with a basic rom.
can someone advise me of a good stable rom which will work with a slcd screen?
many thanks
Best Rom I find is MIUI takes a bit to get used to but you will love it if you miss the clock just download fancy widget .. for the HTC clock and weather. just Google it and get the.apk

hmmm. can't download anything from the android marketplace. just says download unsuccessful.
for any who has the same problem - think it was a schoolboy error. when it sticks on the x screen the options must be in the background. press volume down then press power and it boots.
Good day everyone!
Explanation fell free to skip...
So I have my HTC Desire HD, fully rooted, with Eng-S OFF, Radio OFF, the 1.1.1.1 and all that.
After 2 days running coredroid v.8 phone went crazy and started rebooting (I suspect it was the launchpro app).
I did a full wipe and went to reflash the room but it was not working.
So I tried downgrading again but here's the problem:
Real Problem
Everytime I try to enter the bootloader the
"SD Checking Screen" comes up "Loading...[PD98IMG.zip]"
But my my PD98IMG.zip for some reason is corrupt.
If I choose yes to update SD Zip it fails on step "[4]- Fail-UZ". The rest is ok and in the end syas "Update Fail" Press power to reboot.
The damn thing is that when I reboot this cycle starts again and again! (sd checking....loading...)
If I choose not to update I Still have to reboot which leads me back to the cycle!
Please might community! Tell me how to solve this!
I dont have anywhere else where I could mount my SD Card..
Is there any way to cancel the commands that pushes the HTC to update the zip?
Problem is that the phone is not found on command prompt when this booting begins.
Any ideas??
Best regards everyone,
Joao LUiz
I had the same problem with coredroid v7.1,phone booting,enter my pin and the restart after restart.....but taking out the battery solved my problem

1. Take out your battery.
2. Take out memory card.
3. Put back battery and boot into bootloader. And choose recovery.
4. Put back your memory card.
5. You can do whatever you need to do.
Some advice, move your PD98IMG file to other directory when not used. Don't put at root folder.
Edit: Why are you putting PD98IMG.zip for?

Update 10/09/2011
Went and bought an Microsd usb adapter. Plugged the MicroSD, formated, changed the PD98IMG. zip for a new one.
Plugged in the phone the update went through fine. However when I rebooted only got HTC white screen.
I removed the battery to make it reboot again, now in bootloader. And guess?
The freakin thing is asking for the update again!!! God damn it!
As I see it my phone is with a command that keeps telling it to boot the image. Any ideais on how do I cancel this command?

Thanks for the reply darren.
I was trying to run PD98img just to see if it would stop asking for updates.
I did as you suggested but now when I click Recovery I get a black screen with an HTC on it and a red exclamation point inside a triangle.
Before I was getting a SYNC sign like it was looking for my SD card. The sd is running fine on the adapter...oh well...
So, You restored your DHD using a PD98IMG and now after restoration your stuck either at the bootloader or at the white screen with the green HTC logo?
Firstly what PD98IMG did you flash? 1.32.405.6, 1.72.405.6, 2.32.405.6 or other?
Secondly, can you access the stock recovery menu and attempt a factory reset from there? - Remove & reinsert battery, hold Vol Down + Power. You should get a plain menu in blue if I recall with 2-3 options. One should be factory reset/restore. Use volume to navigate & power to enter.

Andy,
Yep my phone updated on PD98IMG and now I'm stuck at bootloader or the white with green logo!
The PD98IMG was 1.32 from this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
I did as you suggested. Clicked factory wipe, it took me to a black screen with the htc phone on it + a big green syncing symbol and at the bottom a meter bar with a MicroSD card logo to the right of it.
It went black after a short time , then the device rebooted back to HTC white screen.
Does it mean it worked? Could it be my SD card ?
Again thank you all for the replies,
I'm going crazy over here!
Plus
Now on bootloader screen it says Hboot USB Plug.
But when I go cmd and type adb shell it says error device not found.
If I try to go into recovery I get the Black screen with red triangle and exclamation point.
Is your phone still eng s-off? By right, flashing PD98IMG will revert it to s-on..

Oh great! Now how will I be able to make it S-OFF?
At the bootloader screen it says Ship S-Off.
I was reading at ohter places, apparently I have reverted my recovery to the original.
I need to be able to flash a custom recovery onto the phone. I saw some people used Unrevoked but I pretty sure the software only works on some mobiles and HTC Desire HD is not on the list. Unless HTC Desire CDMA means the Desire HD
http://unrevoked.com/rootwiki/doku.php/public/unrevoked3
What happens when you leave the device to boot normally? Usually the first boot can take upto 5 minutes.
I'm guessing you have already waited that long and that will not be a solution.
IF, and that's a big if, please mind the pun, you still have ENG S-OFF you attempt a fastboot restore. But you do need ENG S-OFF.
EDIT: Ah SHIP S-OFF does no have access to fastboot commands.

Darren,
Thank you!
Update 11/09/2011
I'm able to go to recovery mod. Have wiped both data and cache.
If I run cmd "adb devices" it shows my phone serial number + offline. Also on recovery mod the phone drivers are recognized on windows device manager.
However if I stay on the initial bootloader screen and run "adb devices" it shows no device and the drivers dont recognize my phone.
On the usb devices only shows Android 1.0.
I'm trying to get my phone online so I can run the temp root cmd commands. But it's either offline on recovery or not recognized at all on Bootloader screen. ¬¬"
Since you have cwm recovery, just full wipe and flash a custom ROM on it.
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk
I've tried everytyhing. Flashing Clowork Mod Recovery, updating from update.zip as well clicking on the bat file.
Everywhere I get permission denied, seems like my phone is not letting me do anything. Maybe my goldcard got corrupted in the mess. I'll make a new goldcard and see how it goes.
Ah as well I've noticed this
The reason this all started was because my HTC was in a bootloop. It would load Coredroid, the initial screen would appear then it would reboot and so on.
Now even with no rooms, no sd card etc. If I leave it to boot normally, the HTC White screen will stay on then it will reboot (goes black, phone vibrates) to the same HTC white screen.
So I think it's got something hardware related, I mean it's rebooting even with no rooms.
Oh geez....
Again, thank you all very much for the support! It's been really helpful, thank you for the ideas guys!
How do you full wipe?
Manually or using script?
If using manual method, what are the steps you did?

Darren,
I went to Bootloader > Recovery > Wipe Data. Then I wiped cache as well. Note that my Recovery access is limited. It says Android system recovery 3e. And in yellow at the bottom E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command.
I also did Factory Reset from the Bootloader Screen.
I can't do any script stuff except for Fastboot commands. Even on that I get "failed" status due to my permission denied.
I really cant understand why I cannot seem to flash a new Recovery.
If I use update.zip I get a failed installation at the end.
If I use clockword mod double click on the bat file the process runs, phone reboots like it should and then nothing, still on 3e...
Did you do what this post suggested?
Download the PD98IMG_cwmrecovery.zip file and rename it to PD98IMG.zip. Put it at root and boot in hboot and update.

Fingers crossed!
i have absolutely gone thru every post about this and couldnt find an answer
this is what happened
i was messing with "rom toolbox" app and installed a boot animation which kept going in a loop, i waited like an hour and got tired so i booted in hboot menu and and just started wiping every thing "format boot" wiped everything "data" "cache" then i read somewhere on xda to install PB31IMG.zip from sd card and i waited pressed reboot and now it wont turn on. other thread/posts talk about unrooting it but how can i do that when i cant get into the hboot/recovery menu. please point me in the right direction if this is fixed already
i have and htc incredible 2.2 rooted s-off led light turns on and and the buttons turn on, sometimes it vibrates 1 or 5 times
please help i just want my phone back, im tired of using my blackberry
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110865
try that and get back to us
Though the 5 Vibrate never happened to me, I hope this can be of some assistance http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110865
actually ive already read it and well i cant seem to use it because it requires my phone to turn on. and on the link one of the process is to flash that PB31IMG.zip file which i have already done. Now im trying to do that again but by loading recovery using adb but im stuck there any help
Just to make sure, the battery has a charge right? Have you tried to do everything with the phone plugged in? Also, try pulling the battery just in case it needs a hard reset or something, put it back in, then hold down the volume - and the power button and see if you can get into hboot.
That's what I would do.
yeah when i connect to the wall charger the led light turns on and when i connect to the computer it shows the both removable disk (internal memory & sd card) but i cant access them cause i would still have to mount it as a disk drive
Just a thought, can you get another SD Card, load a PB31IMG.zip on it, make sure it's FAT32 (use a card reader or something) and reboot?

Wait, when you plug it into the computer - the computer shows it as a disk drive? Doesn't that mean that the phone is actually on?
Hold up...
First: The PB31IMG.zip file would have been used for a splash screen, not a boot animation. Correct? Second: That is just a generic file name so that the bootloader will read the file, did you know what was actually in that file? I ask because you could have had something like a radio trying to update under the PB31IMG.zip file, and as far as I understand it that's a pretty good way to brick a phone with the quickness
You are not bricked. You most likely installed an old stock image for 2.1 that does not contain drivers for your SLCD screen. Easiest way to fix this is to download the newest RUU and use that utility. Should have you back up and running in no time. If that doesn't work, you can do it through the PB31IMG method too, but it's a pain in the ass.
I'm curious to see if that worked, update when you can please

Awesome, really glad to hear that you don't just have a very expensive paper-weight. And don't fear rom toolbox, I use it for everything that it does besides the rom manager part of it and it's an great all-in-one tool. If you learned anything it's that boot animations are placed in your system files and splash screens are changed by updating in hboot with the PB31IMG.zip file name, just check and double check before you do stuff like that. You learned the hard way, but now you know. Have fun with your new(old) phone
---------- Post added at 07:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 PM ----------
What rom are you running anyway, depending on the rom you will have a different file path to get to where your bootanimation.zip should be placed. Sense roms are usually under data/local, and cyanogenmod is under system/media. Just look until you find the file name bootanimation.zip, change that file to bootanimation.bak and leave it in the folder where you found it. Then copy/move your new boot animation to the folder where you found the boot animation that you changed from .zip to .bak, reboot and you should be good to go. The reason for leaving the old boot animation in there is a just in case sort of thing, like if something goes weird with the new boot animation you can just change the extension from .bak back to .zip. Hope that helps (or at least makes sense, ha)

Hi, ive been lurking on the xda forums for months, and have succesfully roooted and run darky rom on my galaxy s. then i got a wildfire s second hand.
Now i decided to try for s-off and a custom cwm rom. downloaded all the files read everything i could, and have managed to brick it i think.
Result if i press power or volume down + power i get a flickering screen, it flashes grey for 2 sec, black 2 sec. there is a faint red glow to the right of the front htc logo...where i thought the camera was lol.
i was trying to use the htcdev.com route. downloaded :

RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.3_Radio_47.23c.35 .3037_7.54.39.28M_release_236989_signed.exe
which was hard to find and a pain to download...i ran this, it found my phone, gave me the usaul warnings, check battery etc, everything set so i told it go ahead, it ran for bout 7 or 8 minutes my phone went to a black screen with htc, did a progress bar then it said finished on the pc. left it for a few more minutes to be sure, then powered on my htc. screen starts flicking grey and white...
ive tried removing the battery, cant get into hboot, get no logos, no vibration, nothing.
sdcard has been removed and sim card.
usb cable inserted charges then goes to flickering screen. pc does not detect any android device connected...
this was last night. searched all the forums i know, googled, found one post similiar but no1 really helped him just told him to take back for warranty...

Hello I'm no expert but I hope to try and help OK so you can turn the phone on, and it flickers and then the screen goes black? Does the phone remain on after the black screen? If so what is the longest you have left it?
Also when you tried to connect it to your PC did you try in *rom mode* or *hboot * mode?
If rom mode try in hboot mode and see if your PC can connect to it. If it can try to re-run the ruu and see if it brings it back to life.
It sounds to me like either the bootloader or your radio is ****ed. And neither are easy to fix. But report back with your findings and we'll take it from there good luck.

OK hold down the volume down + power for 10 seconds and then connect to the PC by USB and see if it shows up. And its cool man, always happy to help

Holding volume and pressing power causes the flickering to start again...

And does the PC connect to it? Because our only real hope, since your s-on is that by holding down power +volume down you can get the PC to connect to it and the see if fastboot is still functional, then run a ruu. If it cannot, you could try to take the ruu, remove the rom.zip from it, (run it on the PC with a process moniter, wait until it moves the file to the temporary folder and take it) rename to pg76img.zip put it on the sdcard, boot into hboot and wait for a bit, then push volume up and hope that it runs the update and fixes your screen. If that doesn't work then you have indeed bricked it.

Nothing I do seems to get me into hboot or a rom...pc doesn't pick up usb either...so I think my bootloader kicked the bucket....is there any way to save this phone now? Thx for the help everyone who has replied, and those with the same problem.good luck...

You could try to use a j-tag but it would end up costing you more than the phone tbh. Sorry bud.

Try going to where you bought it and saying you had it charging all night and it happed then demand a refund (hopefully you get someone who says ok)
