Hi all,
I have a big problem with my desire. I was unable to start my desire (S-ON, never rooted) so I have decided to downlod RUU:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed.exe
booted in fastboot with vol- + power and ran the above file but the process has failed so I had to reboot and since that moment I don't have fastboot menu anymore and I just see the 4 triangles screen. I can still connect phone to PC (windows 7) and run RUU file but everytime it fails with 152 error and "Radio_V2 Fail-PU" error (I can see the RUU process when I disconnect the USB cable, when I connect the cable again the RUU disappear and I see again the black screen with HTC and 4 triangles). I have also tried RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread).exe but no lucks.
Any suggestion on how to get my desire working again?
any help is really really appreciated,
many thanks

Thanks for your response. I have followed the guide above, point "[4]RUU PROBLEMS", S-ON solution, but I still cannot flash the RUU. I am stuck on HTC logo with "4" triangles and I get always the same error:

[2] RADIO_V2 - FAIL-PU
[3] RADIO_CUST - OK
[4] BOOT - OK
[5] RECOVERY - OK
[6] SYSTEM - OK
[7] USERDATA - OK
[8] SPLASH1 - OK
[9] SPLASH2 - OK

Here are the information I get if I disconnect the USB cable (it seems to be stuck in RUU mode):

I tried this:

Any suggestion? could I try to use revolutionary in order to have access to the recovery once again? other ideas?
Try 2.3.3 RUU from htcdev.com.
have you been sucessful? i have the same problem, with an originally vodafone branded device.

Is it a complete brick? Is it confirmed that "radio-brick which is currently unfixable."??

I feel like troubleshootin'-Putin already, because I'm on it since 7 hours and there don't seem to be a solution!
Guess what - i have the exact same problem!
However if i go through the recovery procedure, sometimes the Radio image flashes ok, however during boot up, the phone is stuck on the htc white start up screen. If i flash the RUU again, i end up with the radio error.
HELP!!!

Radio-bricks are currently unfixable. Unless one can flash 2.3.3 RUU, which is the last hope.
Tried 2.3.3 RUU but nothing changed...I have tried everything I can think of!
I pulled my old Desire out of a draw yesterday as I need it as a test device - Exactly the same situation with RADIO_V2 - FAIL-PU
I've tried so many different RUUs, but all fail... Stumped after hours and hours of messing and searching.
If anyone manages to resolve this without returning to HTC, please do post!
same here...
alas
also have same problem
tried all...
also posted about it here
no go....
hope someone can fix this..
funny thing is :
was using botrak's troubleshooting guide
and it was there that was suggested to flash android 2.3 gingerbread ruu
i think that should be mentioned to be condemned
because once you flash that you can NOT downgrade again if anything goes wrong
as is obvious from our cases!!
really hope someone cracks this!
fastboot oem boot <- That command boots the phone friends.

You can try flashing an individual standalone radio image from those that rom cookers provide in dev thread

For anyone who is looking for the solution or a similiar one.. just install all the drivers on the net for the htc desire (at least i installed everything i could find). Go to htcdev.com website, register for free, and get a copy of the ruu for desire gingerbread. Attach the phone to the pc, turn it on, wait until the pc recognizes the phone and get the ruu_xxx.exe running. Solved!
Hope I came useful to some one.
Another way: Relock bootloader
PHP:
fastboot oem lock
and then install the corect RUU

Right i'm a bit of a noob at all this and have got myself in a bit too deep!!!
The problems started after applying the CM7 hboot and s-off with aplpharev. (which seemed to go OK)
After applying a new rom i got stuck in a boot loop so tried other roms from recovery and had the same problem, Nandroid also wouldn't restore.
I then decide it would be best to flash an RUU which went tits up and has lead to the black screen with 4 triangles in each corner. I have tried several other RUUs but no luck either. I also cannot boot in to recovery at all now.
When i plug and unplug the device to a pc, it gives the following info:
AlphaRev CM7 r2

Pluging it in returns it to the black screen
I have trawled the forums but nothing seems to work (i have resorted to creating a thread after 2 days of trying things!)
Any chance of an idiots guide from a guru on how to get the device usable again? (bearing in mind my reasonably limited knowledge!)
I know there are many threads on this already but i can't seem to find a fix that works.
Ta Much
Can't look into this too much right now but I'm pretty sure your RUU flash failed because you're using the r2 version of that HBOOT which has something in it that prevents it from being over-written by the RUU. Try flashing the Downgrader HBOOT and then give the RUU a shot. Should get you back to stock.
Also, move this to the Q&A thread.
Boot in to fastboot then
plug in usb
Then run ruu. As administrator if you have windows 7/vista

I have same problem two days ago. Mine stuck at CM7 r2 partition while RUU need 250MB of system partition. After fighting around 4hours then I try to to flash HBOOT downgrader and then flash stock HBOOT then run RUU again.
Once alive I am rooting it again again and flash custom rom since I am not satisfied with original rom hahaha..
Sorry for my bad english.

You just need to flash the downgrader hboot to flash the ruu.. And only if you are using one of the new r2 hboots. The ruu will over write the hboot so no point in flashing the downgrader and then the stock.

How do i boot to fastboot (power and vol down doesn't do anything)?

Just unplugged, plugged back in and re-ran ruu then everything was ok.

Again, may be being stupid, but how do i flash the hboot the only screen i can access is the htc and 4 triangles?
try to cool down your device and flash again...
it sounds stupid, but it works for me.
i put my device without battery in fridge for 5 minutes, then i flash again and it works.
if the device warms up it stop working.
mine have hardware fault.

How are you installing hboot then? I am using alpharev and when i plug the device in it doesn't recognise it and just says searching for device.
open android flasher conect your phone to usb cable verify the phone to be open and then select on android flasher hboot select the stock hboot wait 1 or 2 seconds and then open the Ruuand wait and your phone is back to life

Hello everybody,
I have a huge problem with my Desire : I cannot install any Ruu on it and I have the "error 152 : image update error". I tried and read many things but the probleme is that the phone is S-ON. So I cannot install a recovery image and cannot either access to the fastboot because I don't have one (I only have "RUU" on my screen).
So when I try to install the Ruu.exe I get this message :

Contact HTC. Looks like a radio brick and if it is only they can fix it. You were updating to 2.3.3 so this should be covered by warranty.

Then why do you have the new HBOOT which was in the Official DEVLEOPER 2.3 update ?
You need to use Revolutionary.io (root/s-off), then flash the downgrader from alpharev.nl and you can try an older RUU.
The phone needs to boot to s-off

yup, phones bricked. Call HTC they *should* give you a new one.
Thank you for your replies.
I'm in Tunisia. I've bought it last year from France and my guarrantee is over
I cannot dot it with revolutionary because the pone is not detected but the computer even if my drivers are installed.
Should be a 2 year warranty but not sure if its from another country. You should contact HTC and see what they say

Hey guys, I had a HTC Desire that started working very strange. It was constantly freezing at the HTC logo (booting). After removing the battery for a few minutes, I could turn on the phone again. I tried rooting, it always failed. Then I tried installing 2.3 via HTC Dev official software. Followed all the instructions and had a RADIO_V2 - Fail PU. The RUU enters recovery mode: I unplug, remove battery for 3 seconds, then plug again and it runs the same procedure: RADIO_V2 - Fail PU again. I just tried 4x and nothing. The phone is bricked. If I try to boot holding volume down, it won't go to recovery, it just turns black with ! sign in all corners.
I am just afraid my Desire has some hardware problem, but in any case, now it is bricked. Any suggestions?

Looks like you're not in recovery there, but in Fastboot menu.
You might want to go back to bootloader menu and check if you have the recovery option.
From there maybe you can flash a working rom...
yes i can go to recovery but when i press recovery i get stuck at logo screen!and i have to pull the battery out to turn it off...

You are in stock recovery as you are s-on, if you want custom recovery you need s-off or flash it during rooting process via unrevoked.
Extract Rom.zip from CORRECT RUU and rename it to PB99IMG.zip and put in the root of sd card, if phone is branded and you are unable to find correct ruu, use WWE rui and goldcard, all the additional info you find in bortak's guide

i already tried bortak's guide,i am not that noob and i tried like 10 different roms and nothing,it does load the rom but when it restarts it just hangs again at boot screen

i think it is a hardware issue because when i install drivers it says android bootloader device but it says also that device cannot start (code 10)
anyway i tried yesterday heating the MBO with hot air in my workshop(i am electric technician) i thought some chip on MBO was unsoldered but with no luck so i threw the whole thing away in the garbage!
Hi All,
I have been asked by a friend to have a look at their Desire which isn't booting up, i've tried searching the forums but am at a bit of a dead end.
Basically when powering up the phone it goes to a white screen with the green htc logo and stays like this indefinitely.
I can however boot into HBOOT and it gives me the following info:
BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.02.0001

HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
When I try to boot into RECOVERY it goes back to the white screen with htc logo.
When I try CLEAR STORAGE the problem remains.
I can go into FASTBOOT and this does change to FASTBOOT USB when I plug it into the USB port.
So because it's S-ON this means I can't push a recovery image via command prompt right?
I've tried downloading: RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.14_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_224699_signed.exe from shipped-roms.com, extracting ROM.zip and changing the name to PB99IMG.ZIP and putting it into the root of my sd cards (4GB and 16GB kingstons) but when I boot the phone into HBOOT i get the following:
SD Checking...
Loading...[PB99DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PB99DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.zip]
and a progress bar loads, then
Checking..[PB99IMG.zip]
followed by the following message:
CID incorrect!
Update Fail!
Do you want to reboot device?
<VOL UP> Yes
<VOL DOWN> No
I've tried turning my SD card into a gold card but I presume this has failed if I'm getting that message?
Has anybody got any pointers? Is the phone bricked?
Any help is much appreciated...

OK, I think I've successfully created the goldcard now, was using the wrong CID!
I transferred the same PB99IMG.zip to the root of the goldcard and booted into HBOOT. It loaded again and failed with the following message:
Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
Do you want to reboot device?
<VOL UP> Yes
<VOL DOWN> No
What does this mean? Am I using the wrong PB99IMG.zip or something?
Is there any way to actually check that the creation of the goldcard was successful? Or does the fact that this is a different message mean that it's passed the CID check?
Your Phone is NOT bricked, go to the thread below, I use the ROM in the second thread and have had no trouble with it

Cheers, so how do I get from where I am now to flashing a custom ROM?
I see from the 1st link you posted it says (if phone is S-ON):
S-ON
"I'm S-ON, I can't boot recovery, and my phone doesn't boot "
This is a bit of a worse situation, as you cannot flash system critical parts such as the recovery image and just restore a backup. This unfortunately means that you will lose all of your data when you attempt to fix the phone.
[STEP1]- Make sure that you have a goldcard. If not, create one from the tutorial.
[STEP2]- Battery pull. Hold the BACK button and the POWER button to boot into FASTBOOT mode.
[STEP3]- Download the latest WWE RUU from here
[STEP4]- Run the RUU and wait for completion WARNING: DO NOT, BY ANY CIRCUMSTANCES INTERRUPT THE PROCESS - THIS WILL MORE THAN LIKELY END UP WITH A BRICKED PHONE - NOT EVEN IF GOD HIMSELF TELLS YOU TO DO SO, OR IF THE US PRESIDENT THREATENS YOU WITH THERMO-NUCLEAR WAR
[STEP5]- Once the phone is booted, you are now returned completely to stock. You will need to re-root again, and I'd recommend S-OFF
Not sure about step 4 here?
that ruu is an exe file so with ur phone plugged in via usb just run the file (double click it) on ur computer. just follow all bortaks instructions
and ur goldcard works its fine

I'm still not sure why you're loosing time with those old RUUs, as I always say use 2.3, no CID check, easy install, easy s-off and root, the world goes round...

OK, I ran the 2.3 RUU and it seemed to do the trick. I could then turn the phone on but it seems a lot slower than I'm used to.
I've now rooted it and have S-OFF using revolutionary. Now it boots OK most of the time but as soon as I enter my PIN to unlock the SIM it reboots, and half the time when it reboots it seems to get stuck in a boot loop and gets quite warm.
I have a feeling there may be some underlying hardware issue at the heart of this problem.
Will try a custom ROM next and see if it makes any difference.

Go to htc dev site, kernel source code section, configure filter by device (desire) and check 'other' below. Click find files and the first on the list is 2.3 upgrade, download it, install HTC sync, reboot phone to bootloader (not fastboot) and run .exe file from RUU. Simple, isn't it.
