Device bricked after adb failure.

I have bricked my phone due to problems with adb.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=8269629#post8269629
For description of the problem. 3rd post.. Please help me since i need to have a working phone before weekend when i'm moving abroad..
Best regards

your device isnt bricked, people use that term far too indiscriminately!! you just have no rom installed! you cant flash a rom using the standard htc recovery. you have two choices, either put your device in fastboot and flash an ruu or put your device in recovery with the red triangle, and push a custom recovery ........

Hmm okej, well i need to look an RUU file then to see if that works.. I've tried to push files with adb, but since the adb goes haywire when commanding it to push files to the phone and kills itself it seems like I won't be lucky on that front.
I'll try the fastboot method, but if that doesn't work what to do next?
My fault, i have a nonworking desire at the moment and need help to get it working

try this, put your device into recovery and connect your device to your pc, download and unzip the archive below, use a command prompt to navigate to the folder you just unrared, then use the command recovery-windows.bat. that should push a temp recovery to your device, you can now flash a rom

it didn't work. My ADB is not working properly i'm afraid.. It says ADB server didn't ACK and something about runningerror So i can't push the temp recovery to the phone .

use taskmanager to kill all instances of adb.exe or reboot your pc and try again ..... do you have htc sync installed?

i dont know what else to suggest apart from if you have access to another pc, try on that one with the pushfiles.zip i gave you....also if you have a hboot below 0.85, try flashing an ruu from fastboot like i said before

I will do that in just a few minutes . Or else i thought about installing ubuntu on a separate partition and do the adb through there, might help, might not. Thank you for the help..
Fastboot update didn't work, it told me it couldn't update my phone. Don't know if that depends on that i ran image 1.21 and tried to install a 1.15 RUU?

It seems to work now with fastboot and the latest RUU WWE 1.21.405.2
It's flashing at the moment i'm writing this, so thank you and now the thread can be closed.. Looks like i need to root my phone again to get the fully potential out of it.
Thank you for the tips about fastboot and RUU

root and then go to http://unrevoked.com/recovery/ download the reflash tool and flash a custom recovery, then you wont get in this pickle again, cuz you can always flash a rom from recovery i hope your move goes well

[Q] Bootloop, bricked

Hey, i unlocked the bootloader, flashed a CWM (That does not allow me to mount my phone storage to the PC), tried to flash 2 .zips (the Remove menu thingy, and the SuperSU V.0.87) and when i tried to do that it went in a bootloop(or bootstuck? gets to the "HTC One X - Beats Audio screen, and never gets any further) WHAT DO I DO? Help me please!

Hi, i did exactly the same thing and...i got the same result ....Please, anyone knows how to solve it???????

I am guessing you didnt take a backup in CWM prior to flashing the mods? If not, unfortunately, your only solution would be to bring it back to complete stock and flash the RUU that originally came loaded on your phone.
1) Flash stock recovery:
Grab it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1579797
Then Boot in bootloader >> Fastboot and issue the following command (assuming that the offical recovery is named recovery.img): fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2) Relock Bootloader:
Boot in bootloader >> Fastboot and issue the following command: fastboot oem lock
3) Find and run/flash the RUU for your device, find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604

Thanks!!!!! thank to you I managed to unlock my mobile

Can't really tell you what worked, i flashed my RUU but it failed, i tried flashing stock and all that (which i put on there beforehand as CWM can't mount the drive), but in the end it was just persistence that got it, so just keep trying!

I think the Menu removal caused bootloop. I don't have my PC with me if someone can upload the stock Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk you could replace that to boot it back again. If nothing works then download one of the Custom ROM (ARHD or LeeDroid) then wipe everything and flash that it should work for you.

End to unlock again?

How can it be unlocked again? Is there a simple command also or it is htcdev all over again?

You should have received a code from HTC when you unlocked, check your email for it. Then you place it in file with fastboot on computer, open cmd prompt, type in fastboot oem unlock and it should unlock.

[Q] Cant get out of Bootloader anymore. Bootloader relocked - Security warning

Hello,
I have now completely made my PrimoU useless.
For weeks I try to get the CM10 from Lloir working but it never got over the booting screen. So I tried several things, but never came further. Flashing back to my first rom always worked. I tried to unlock bootloader again (thought, maybe it isn't) but it was unlocked. Therefore I tried to lock it to maybe start from scratch.
That was a big mistake, because since then, I am stuck on bootloader. On the top in pink is written "Relocked" "Security warning". No recovery, no starting to the software. I gave it up.
Can anyone help me? I only have a Mac. Is there ANY possibility to just set the whole phone back to Factory form? So no bootloader unlocking, no custom rom, no recovery? I am really thinking about changing it back to this and maybe sell it afterwards. I used HTC Desire for two years with several custom roms and everything. Always could work with it. This device is unfortunately not the same.
But at first I hope anyone can help me to get this back booting with Mac?
Thanks to you all in advance

Moved to Q&A. Please ask all questions there.

Try this ./fastboot-mac flash unlock Unlock_code.bin
You have unlocked it again
You should have it in your email...
Then download the latest boot.img and zip file from cm10 and transfer the Rom zip to your sdcard....
Check development section for cwm recovery 6...download and rename it to recovery.img
Flash it by
./fastboot-mac flash recovery recovery.img
Flash boot.img by renaming it and
./fastboot flash boot boot.img
Go to recovery and flash the cm10 zip file....

Thank you all, I used this way:
I installed Virtualbox to use a xp system to unlock bootloader again.
After that I still wasn''t able to install CM10. Whatever I do, it always sticks at the bootscreen.
I then tried the new Modaco Vanilla Rom, and it worked without ANY problems. Now I use this for start... It seems as Jelly Bean is not possible for me...

Your problem with CM10
The problem was probably you didn't flash the kernel because if you did then you would have to flash a stock kernel to return to your original rom. Just some advice for future reference

This thread contains all the information you need, for drivers and twrp. Its very simple to follow.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2800727
If you haven't upgraded your firmware to the latest 2.22.x base you won't be able to flash the latest arhd rom. That thread will walk you through that as well. If your not sure what firmware your on that thread shows you how to check.
You don't NEED s-off for any of this, but it makes upgrading firmware easier. If you don't have s-off you need to relock your bootloader before upgrading firmware.

it doesnt work -.-

Provide more information then someone might be able to help, saying it doesn't work is of no use, as it does work, it has for many people.

No idea why it didnt.. i installed the adb think downloaded the recovery went to cmd typed the fastboot flash recovery c:adb\filename.img and it said :"error cant load"

Skype won't help if you don't want to give enough info. Seems like you're just giving the least amount detail possible when responding.
Get adb and fastboot setup on your computer. There's a ton of tutorials about this. Just use the internet.
After you've installed those run in terminal (command prompt) "adb devices" to check to make sure it's working. Then in terminal run "adb reboot bootloader". This will boot your device into bootloader (fastboot mode).
Then that's where you type fastboot flash recovery <insert recovovery.img here>
Once that's done type in terminal "fastboot reboot" and you're device will reboot.
Done. You'll have whatever recovery you chose.

Hey pal first off, this is the wrong forum. This is the old wildfire forums not the wildfire s. But I shall help you out none the less
Since your phone is hboot unlocked but not s-off you need to flash your custom roms boot.img via fastboot just after you flash the rom via recovery. When you download the rom it comes in a zip file, unzip a copy of it and place the boot.img in your fastboot folder, then copy the zip to your sd card and then flash via recovery. Once it's flashed boot into hboot by using advanced reboot options I think its called. Then flash the boot.img using the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where boot.img is the name of the .img you took from the zip file (just in case you have renamed it and don't know why the command is not working)
Then do fastboot reboot and the phone should boot up okay. You need to flash the boot.img for every rom change that you do. Also should you decide you want to run a RUU you must relock you hboot or it won't run.

HI.
firste off i would like to thank you for taking the time to responde to my question and im sorry about posting in the wrong forum.
i watched the XDA DEV noob video on youtube about being a noob so before i posted my question i looked through each and every post i could find about my phone s problem but NO LUCK so i decided to ask the experts
*i did relock my bootloader before i ran the Ruu and it didnt work it said main version too old and since my costume rom is based on andoird 2.3.7 and my htc can only go as far as 2.3.5 and ruu wont let you downgrade so i figured it might not work.
*now you suggested that i flash the costume rom via recovery and thats the problem i cant even get in to my recovery it just gets stuck on the white htc screen and i tried flashing the recovery Again (twrp) and nothing. even other recoveries wouldnt work.
*i flashed about 4 roms and they all worked just fine even this last one and i didnt flash the boot.img and i was able to reboot normally
THANK YOU.

Okay so, let's recap.
You are on a custom android rom.
You have a custom recovery installed.
Your cannot flash the RUU as your run version is higher than the RUU.
Lastly you cannot boot into your custom Rom, or your recovery?
Do you want to return to stick it get a custom Rom flashed?

Q: if i flash a system via fastboot successfully will it automaticly erase the old one because i tried to erase it but it said remot controle not allowed (S-on)

ok, ive requested this thread be moved to its correct forum.
before proceeding can you tell me when your htc wildfire marvel was made? after 2012?
can you flash clockworkmod recovery and then try flashing a custom htc sense rom
Then reboot back into cwm recovery (by selecting advanced/ reboot-recovery in the menus) and plug the phone into your computer via usb cable. open up your command prompt and move to your adb folder. type the following commands ( a # denotes instructions and should not be typed into the command window)
Code:
adb devices
#this should show your device up, maybe saying its in recovery mode
adb shell
# the command prompt should change to a # symbol
Now make sure you have a sdcard in the phone and then run the following command
Code:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
This should leave you with a file called misc.img on your sdcard. Lastly
Code:
exit
exit
exit
your command window should have closed. now upload this file to a online storage system like dropbox and send me a pm with a link to it. I will edit it and you can flash it back, this will relock your hboot and downgrade your software version so that RUU's will work. then we will run a RUU, returning your phone to stock and functional state

Hmm.... Okay reflash twrp and see if it boots up. Without a recovery your options are limited. You need to be careful as your device uses a different kernel from older versions of the wildfire s. If you flash a older RUU version it will kill your phone.
Do you have any phone unlock shops near you?

Make sure when you go to the unlock shop you make sure they use an XTC clip http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/xtc_clip.htm
If they don't have it then do not pay for an unlock. You need s-off not SIM unlocked. Make sure to ask for it. Once your S-off you can run any RUU and fix the phone but check in here first so I can ensure that its compatible with your 2012 edition of the phone ( as I said flashing one that is too old will kill the phone!)
