Hi, My problem is as follows:
If i remove battery and put it back and switch on the phone, it will get in a bootloop. I have to wait for around 1 hour so that phone boots normally. I took this opportunity to s-off my phone with revolutionary.
right now, i cannot get to recovery, if i go to recovery and press power button, phone will reboot. I even flashed a stock rom WWE v 2.29
Specs are as follows:
bravo pvt1 ship s-off
hboot 6.93.1002
radio:5.11.05.27
I flashed CW several times through fastboot it says ok but still am stuck in boot loop and cant get recovery.
i went to alpha rev and flashed stock boot image but still not success.
Any help will be highly appreciated
After 1 hour , i can get phone to boot normally. at that time i think i will be able to get an adb shell..if there are any resizing to be done please guide me.

I was trying out a custom rom when my phone suddenly goes into boot loops. I can get to HBOOT but it bootloops when I choose recovery, factory reset, or clear storage. I get the splash image then it reboots after a few seconds.
My phone:
Incredible AMOLED
S-OFF
Hboot v .92
Baseband 7.28
What I did so far in HBOOT only with no success:
-formated my sd to fat32 and
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of radio 7.28 ( I was on 9.01 )
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of 2.2 RUU (got back the HTC splash since I had the Chicago Bears splash on it)
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of Clockwork Mod 2.5.05
-connected the USB and rerun the Unrevoked (see if I can reroot) but it won't connect to the phone. Just wait for device.
I want to S-ON so I can send it back but I can't get past Hboot to get to recovery mode. Is their another way to return S-ON by just flashing PB31IMG? I'm really screwed now and its Thanksgiving.
TIA

That's Qualcomm Diagnostics mode, because you pressed vol up while booting the phone with a USB cable attached. That will only happen when you have S-OFF.
To get out of diag mode, unplug the usb cable, take the battery out, wait a few seconds and then boot as normal.
With respect to the OP..the only way to get S-ON is using the S-ON patch by unrevoked. If your HBOOT is verion .92 then you didn't flash an RUU (maybe the latest RUU has a newer hboot? didn't think so). You should flash an older RUU, like the 2.1 one.

in hboot right now this is what it says...
"INCREDIBLEC XC SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.92.0000
MICROP-0417
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_12ab

so it looks like it flashed back to stock but still odd boot problem
Regardless if you're booting into HBOOT make sure you're holding volume down and not up.
HBOOT is version .92 now for stock? I didnt know that.
Hello,
I was happily using CM7, and while reading through a Diablo III news page (hopefully it comes out soon ), my phone rebooted into a boot loop. Weird, but I figured at worst I would wipe data and reinstall a ROM. Unfortunately, I can't get into recovery any longer.
If I boot the phone normally, I see the white HTC splash screen for a few seconds, then it reboots. I can use HBOOT fine, but as soon as I try to reboot normally / boot into recovery / boot into Restore Factory Defaults, my phone will try to boot accordingly for a second, then reset. Let me clarify...
Pull and replace battery
Boot into HBOOT (volume down + power)
Select Recovery
Phone reboots and reaches CWM Recovery 3 for about 1/2 second, not long enough for me to click anything
Phone reboots into boot loop
I've used HBOOT to flash to CWM Recovery 3.0.0.8, downgraded to the stock radio, run the 2.2 RUU. I'm still running up against the same boot loop problem.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was a hardware problem, but I'm anxious to hear if anyone has ideas to try first. Additionally, is there any way to restore to S-ON through HBOOT in case I need to bring this into a Verizon store?
Thanks!
Right first things first
my desire was having the random reboot problem after updating to 2.2 then it turned off and now wont boot up at all.
it is stuck on the htc logo,and wont enter recovery either
I can go into Boot loader and Fast boot to flash Ruu's and pb99img.zip files
And they complete successfully but the phone still goes back to the Htc logo
I have the Hboot drivers installed,android Sdk installed but cant recognize because cant enable debugging because i can't get into the android os.
The phone is unbranded but i don't have any back ups for it .
Also made a gold card and flashed stock Rom but still back to the Htc logo it goes.
Any help would be very appreciated i have read and read the forums for days but cant seem to find the exact problem and solution.
Also software version is 2.29.405.5
bravo pvt1 ship s-on
Hboot-0.93.0001
Microp-031d
touch panel-synt0101
radio-5.11.05.27

when it reboot does it vibrate 5-7 times sometimes ??
still looking for a solution
No does not vibrate at all just stays on Htc logo, and stays on that the screen goes blank for a second or 2 then back to the Htc logo till i pull the battery ,goes to H-boot with vol - and power button and thats about it,
Did you make sure you had a "gold card" before flashing?
Flash to an unbranded ROM, 2.29 Froyo
Did you wipe your cache memories, including devalc, and user data before flashing?
If you didn't do so before, you will be stuck.
Sorry, but maybe the gold card was not good.
yeah used the Goldcard , i cannot wipe the cache though because cant get into recovery,when i select it it just goes back to Htc logo.
have you given the freezer idea a try..?
it might be because of the cpu/motherboard over heat issue
Yeah tried it in the freezer for about ten mins no luck.
Hello,
I'm in trouble. I have got a HTC Desire with LCD display and the following modifications:
- AlphaRev Oxygen Bravo PVT3 SHIP S-OFF HBOOT-0.93.1000
- ClockworkMod (can't remember which version, but I think it was 2.5.something)
- Oxygen 2.1.1 Custom ROM (Android 2.3.4)
For the last couple of months, everything worked fine, I was quite happy with the Oxygen custom ROM. Since today, my phone gets stuck in the splash screen (vibrates briefly, shows the splash screen, then does not react to anything anymore). When pressing Volume down and Power, I can get into HBOOT and FASTBOOT, but when I want to start recovery, it immediately vibrates, shows splash screen and is stuck again.
I can access it via USB and the fastboot command line utility from PC. I can re-flash the splash screen with "fastboot flash splash1 xyz.img", it works. But I cannot re-flash the recovery. It seem to work first:
Code:
./fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img
sending 'recovery' (4216 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... OKAY
but no effect, when trying to start "recovery" afterwards, it still gets stuck in the splash screen. Taking out the battery for half an hour and re-trying does not help either.
I browsed the internet for the last few hours, with no result. I only found the "fastboot flash recovery xyz.img" trick, which did not help, as said above. What can I do to save my phone? Why can't I boot into recovery? What else could be wrong, what else could I try?
Regards,
Nemaxx
Make a goldcard?
By the way sry for thanks, hit accidently
You could flash a newer hboot. The hboots got updated so go grab it from AlphaRev. If it still doesn't work, I would say to just flash an RUU and start it all again. If you still have issues, maybe looking towards hardware issues.
Have you tried erasing everything with fastboot before trying to flash the new recovery?
Code:
fastboot erase recovery
Code:
fastboot -w erase system

Hi,
thank you for your replies!
Re goldcard: No, I haven't made any when my phone was still "alive", and now I can't anymore...
Re erase recovery: I tried it, and it showed a reaction: After having erased recovery, the behaviour was different: It vibrated, showed the splash screen for about 1, 2 seconds then returned into FASTBOOT. But then, after flashing a recovery image, same behaviour as before: It got stuck in the splash boot screen (at least this proves that it flashes something...). Maybe my recovery image is wrong? I tried two: "bravo-cwm3src.img" and "recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img". I had kind of difficulties finding those... Can you maybe give me a reliable address where I can download a stable one with MD5 checksum?
Re new AlphaRev HBOOT: I'll give it a try this evening and let you know how it goes...
My Desire is back alive! I flashed the new AlphaRev HBOOT... Same behaviour as before, did not get past the boot slpah screen. Then I used a RUU. It didn't work.
Then I figured out that it makes no sense to flash the original HTC Desire ROM onto a HBOOT whose partition table is made for oxygen. So flashed the stock HBOOT, tried the RUU again... And there it was back, with the original software on it! Excellent!!!
First thing I did afterwards was to re-flash AlphaRev Oxygen HBOOT, install clockworkMod and flash the current Oxygen version... I'm still not cured from that...! But everything is fine now!
But I still don't understand what had happened before. How come I was not even able to flash the recovery image via fastboot. Maybe the partition table was broken, and the RUU fixed it somehow. But shouln't have the newer HBOOT fixed the partition table just as well!?
Anyway, thank you for your tips, I'm a happy bunny again!
Hey Guys,
I already searched in the whole forum and tried a lot of different tutorials and stuff but i just can't bring my desire back to life... :crying:
I got it today from a friend and tried to update it and after that it was stuck at the white htc screen and wouldn't boot.
However I wasn't able to get into the recovery mode because the phone would jump back to the white htc screen and freeze (sometimes it would vibrate 7 times)
I then tried to recover it with a ruu but i got an 152 error and now i have the black htc screen with the four /!\ in the edges. I tried different ruus, including some from vodafone (because i wasnt sure if my phone is branded or not) but with the vodafone ruus i get a 131 error (so i guess my phone is not branded). i also tried the 2.3 gingerbread image.
When i try to recover it with the gingerbread image it stops at about 55% at system rewriting (or sth. like that)
When i plug it out after this i get the following stats:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.02.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27

Recovery - ok
System - ok
Userdata - ok
Splash 1 - ok
Splash 2 - ok
Partition update fail!
Update Fail!
I also get the Error 140 from time to time...
I think i might have to downgrade the hboot, but i don't know how, cause i am s-on and can't get any further than the black htc screen (=fastboot)
i also have the adb toolkit, and i tried to force boot it by the command fastboot oem boot... but it froze at the white htc screen and vibrated 7 times
And i dont have a goldcard...
Can anybody help me with this? if you need more information just ask!
this happened to me...try s-off your device with revolutionary...and then get back to stock hboot from alpharev...and then try gingerbread image to install....
good luck...
Thank you for your reply
How can i s-off the device with revolutionary? it doesnt seem to work in the fastboot screen with the /!\ ??? Revolutionary stucks at "Waiting for device..."

You have a radio brick. Few phones are recovered from this state. The only thing you can do is endlessly flash a RUU hoping that sometime it will succeed.
Try the 2.3 RUU in my sig, or the .exe version of it, or some wwe ruu-s.
//Edit: Post 999
Thanks abaaaabbbb63 for your answer, but i think i might found the first part of the solution
I just stumbled across the "fridge/freezer" method and it worked . Simply put your desire into the fridge until its really cold and the ruu will finish the update. (I think its because the radio gets really hot during updating. For example, the more times you try to update it in a row, the hotter it gets and the sooner the ruu stops)
However, now I'm stuck in an Boot circle. Phone vibrates, green htc logo for a few sec, then black screen and the phone boots again.
But i can get into the boot loader with power and volume-.
Hboot is 1.02.0001
i can go into fastboot, but when i try to get into the recovery mode, the phone is stuck in the boot cycle again.
Anyone some suggestions on how to continue this? I think i need to turn s-off to downgrade the hboot if im right but how?
Update: When i try to do fastboot oem boot via adb, the phone vibrates 7 times in is back in the boot cycle
Update 2: Correct me if I'm wrong but I think i have to set up a custom recovery mode like clockwork via pb99.img, right? However dont have time now, will try it tomorrow...
