If theres power its not bricked. meaning theres hope for you yet. Follow the link at your own risk but what else do you have to lose right? keep us posted.
Btw... Wrong *cough* section *cough* *cough*
sorry about the wrong section guys!!! i really am.
I have tried RUU and every time i run it, it gets to the end and says no phone connected even though it shows the ADB and a bunch of letters and what not after it showing it saw a phone.
I can boot into bootloader and or fastboot but not recovery. and i cant get anything to push over via adb when i get to those screens.

Grab the latest pc36100.zip and put it in the root of your sd card.
Hold volume down +power till it loads bootloader. It'll load the stock rom back automatically and youll be fine. And dont root friends devices cuz as soon as they screw it up they'll blame you...trust me

Thats where im at, but im actually on the 3.70 n hboot 2.10 when i used to be on hboot 0.76.2
Ull need to download the drivers from the unrevoked section and itll let u use adb better.. dunno if this helps but im in the same boat as u bro.. im at work right now so i cant really try to root my phone but when i get home ima have to jump on it and see where to go lol. Im lost myself on this situation.

If you're not comfortable, don't do it. In this case, I wouldn't even do it even if I felt comfortable. Quit while you're ahead.

Sent from my rooted evo using the xda app
If you had an issue trying to root the first time it might be a good idea to let him root his own phone. If you root a phone you understand the process he doesn't. What if you break it for good you have an extra $450 laying around?
I used YouTube and just dl the exe and that was that. Rooted and happy .my two cents

wondering if anyone could help me out and turn this image into a splash screen. Ive tried 4 times to do it following everything Ive found on here but cant get it to load right. Would also love a Vols boot animation if anyone has time or any ideas for one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

no problem, .
what rom you running i think i have an idea for a tenn vols bootanimation for you
you want the fight song to play too?
this is going to sound very noobish, but i dont know. i rooted today for the first time ever with revolutionary. i created the clockwork recovery when prompted during the root. how do i find out what rom it is? maybe stock rom from OTA update 9, software number 4.24.651.1
and yes, having rocky top play would be awesome
go to settings then about phone and the software then more should have the rom name in the build number. mostly likely you have sprintlovers if you havent changed roms yet. but anyway give me a little while and i'll make you a flash zip
it says build number 4.24.651.1 CL61076 release-keys
thanks a lot for the help
i hook you up in a little bit. you'll just have to flash it in recovery
ok give this a try put on sdcard reboot in to recovery,scroll to flash from zip press power, scroll to the zip press power and after its done reboot,enjoy

Hi guys,
I've tried searching but can't seem to find something that exactly matches my issue and I'm scared I'm gunna muck this up!
Just got a One X and unlocked, rooted and flashed android revolution 9.4.1 with CWM and all was working great.
Tonight I decided to flash a camera mod, worked well. I also flashed a beats mod, brightness mod and quick settings.
Now all I get is the phone stuck in a bootloop, no access to the bootloader via power on and vol down.
I'm new to HTC devices like this and I'm kinda new to all of this including fastboot etc
I would really appreciate some help here and if someone could point me in the right direction and help me get this sorted then a pint is on me sir.
If you could keep it simple like step by step
Really sorry if this is in the wrong forum
James
Mods are specific to the base on the ROM, sounds like you flashed an incompatible mod.
You should still be able to get into bootloader, though. Try again, then drop into recovery and reflash ARHD.
thanks for getting back to me,
Yeh i think it must be an incompatability.
Nope sorry cant access bootloader or fastboot, the phones charge has now died too.

Is it going back to displaying the white HTC screen when it bootloops? If so, keep the volume down key held before it loops and it should go into bootloader.
I'm at work now so I can't test this but I will do when I get home, thanks for the suggestion.
If this works, what do I need to do next?
PS: The phone has NO charge, any way I can charge it?
Thank you
So, i tried changing my roms from Paranoid Android to myonev 9.5
And i knew i had to flash boot.img but then i thought I'd do it after flashing the rom (sorry im a noob) which happened to be a graaaaaave mistake
Now my phone doesnt switch on to bootloader nor does it show the charging LED!'
I have a primoU device. Ive googled aroud and found out that it could be a hard brick and the only way is to give it to a service centre..
But the problem there is i live in INDIA and we dont have much service centres here, the closest one is around 400kms from my home :/
So i wanna really make sure that is it worth travelling all those miles..
PLUS, My warranty expired 2 months back :crying:
I wish somebody helps me here, i will do ANYTHINGGG

Try reverting to stock with a stock backup you'll find that on xda ... of your phones not booting into bootloader manually try using the all in one kit..it should have such an option although i didn't try this... If u can boot in bootloader then there's 99.9% chance that ur phone will come back to live
hold your power button until the screen goes off
then hold down your volume down button until u boot into bootloader
if it doesnt boot, try and try again
if u can boot into bootloader, the rest is easy

hmmm then im sorry to say but i think u have bricked your phone :crying:
no choice but to send to hTC
is it this easy to brick?
one small error?
arent there any drivers for this qhsusb thing? so that it can detect my phone and then i can adb it to bootloader?
Sorry mate then I'm afraid it's bricked but still you should keep trying put the phone in charging even if its not showing led signal.. Then try again to boot into bootloader...maybe it helps..coz it should not brick so easily:fingers-crossed:

Isi it possible that i allow it to drain the battery and then it boots by itself?
The phone is off, it will take years to drain the battery

Actually it is a very good idea i myself did it once .. but the difference was that screen was struck on white bright HTC screen taking a lot of battery so it got discharged in 10 hrs but just now it will take a lot of time .. so i don't think you have that much patience...
That happened to me too, but that's not a brick, that's just stuck. This dude's phone is badly bricked, only way would be to find a driver for QHSUBS_DLOAD but I don't think it will be easy to find as all htc devices have this problem, someone would have already found it by now
hi frnds.. plz help me out.. i have htc desire hd.. i was trying to instal older version (1.32.405.3) of RUU on (3.13.468.2).. in the process an error apear n my phone was off.. now im not able to on my cell .. when i press power button nothing happend.. cant go fast boot or recovery mod .. after something cell htc screen appears it self.. n remain that screen..

Does your phone vibrate for about 7 seconds and gets stuck on the white screen?? leave it for about 20-30 minutes and it will turn on. You seemed to messed the bootloader.

i dont think theres an easy way just follow the instructions. i think we are lucky enough to have that guide
learn to use cmd prompt on windows...search on google its not that hard n will make things alot more easier
as you were flashing a RUU i guess u know about adb if not theres a guide for that...search in xda
thats all i can help u with..

There is no easy way for that unfortunately. You messed your bootloader for flashing something you shouldn't have and being warned all around didn't stop your from doing it.
So, my piece of advice is that you take time to do some research and learn how to do it. There is no other way, unless you find someone willing to do it for you.
TIP: Make sure that your phone fully boots even if it takes 30 minutes to and you also are able to get to hboot. Otherwise the fix is useless.
