[Q] Phone won't update - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I've been wanting to root my phone but I'm having some problems. I tried following the guide here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1219246
But it didn't work seeing as how my DInc2 is still in froyo 2.2.1, and revolutionary only works now with 2.3.3.
So now the problem is updating. Apparently Verizon thinks I have a defective unit, because when I got to the software update in the settings and hit check new, it says service unavailable (my service is just fine). It's been doing this since I got the phone, and I got it about right after it was released. Verizon tech support had no solution to this problem at all.
I've researched online and can't find any solution, and tried resetting my phone and that didn't help either. Anyone have any ideas or a link to a thread I didn't see? I just want to root my phone, whether I install gingerbread first or find a way to root it in 2.2.1 I don't really care. I found a link to revolutionary that worked on froyo but that was on megaupload so that's gone now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should be able to download a stock 2.3.3 ROM and flash it.
This has directions and a link for 2.3.4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599767
The important thing is the rom file must be named PG32IMG.zip and on the root of your sd card. To boot into the boot loader, turn the phone off, turn it on holding the volume down and power buttons down until the bootloader menu comes up. You may need to pull the battery out when the phone is off to get it to boot to the boot loader. I've had to on my phone.
You shold be able to find a 2.3.3 rom on your own.

You could put this file on your sdcard (not in a folder)
Then boot to bootloader by powering off, then hold volume down+power
Once it asks if you want to do then update select yes and dont interupt it.
MAKE SURE ITS NAMED: PG32IMG.zip
Heres the link below.

Tmobile Broken Update to Froyo

HI there - I have got myself in a pickle and would appreciate some help...
I have a TMobile branded Desire. I wanted to get Froyo so did the following:
1. Got a new mem card and created a Gold Card
2. Installed RUU_Bravo_HTC _WWE_1.21.405.2 _Radio_32.36.00.28U _4.06.00.02_2 _release_126984_signed
3. Replaced the Gold Card with my normal mem card (which has all my pics etc; on)
4. Ran OTA Froyo update.
I think the FROYO install didnt complete fully as it now randomly reboots by iteslf (every 2 or 3 mins) I have no signal, cant connect via USB to my pc (to downgrade) - all in all it's not exactly bricked but I cant really use it all.
Please help Anyone any ideas?

Will your phone boot up completely before rebooting? Can you get into recovery mode (vol down + power)?
Yes it will completely boot up. And yes I can get into recovery mode. Do you have a cunning plan?
The easiest thing to do would be to do a factory reset (somewhere in settings or from quickboot menu), although if indeed the flash didn't complete successfully this is unlikely to work, it would be the quickest if it did.
Failing that you will probably need to re-flash the device. You will need your goldcard and a rooted update file (zip format as I don't think you can install RUU from recovery).
It is likely that you will need to re-root your device first though..
What is your HBOOT version?
Thanks for the replies so far...
I've already tried a Factory Reset and that made no difference...
Yes I think a zip file is the way forward but I am struggling to work out which one and how I think install it.
My HBOOT is 0.80.0000
Also you mention I will need to re-root my device but I didnt root it in the first place.
Thanks again for help so far. Fingers crossed you can point me in the right direction...
I had this problem. Go download:
http://liveimage.htc.com/OTA_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8-1.21.405.2_release4dua3bcrut4wrv30.zip
Then rename the file to update.zip and copy onto your goldcard - then insert into phone. Now go to recovery mode, select recovery, then when the red triangle thing comes up hold the volume down button when pressing the power button. You should be able to update now.
Oh and I didn't have my phone rooted.

Sorry, was assuming it was rooted and that the update un-rooted it. Since your un-rooted I think the link that er_yeah posted is the official zip update from HTC, that should do the trick.
Thanks er_yeah. Tried as you said. Went into recovery but cant get rid the red triangle thingy. Vol down and power doesnt do anything... Maybe I didn't put the update.zip file in the right place. I just copied it to the root of the sd card. There weren't any other files there - jsut folders (Rosie something was one of them).
Please stick with me
The problem is you tried to run an update without your goldcard.
You will be able to restore the phone by inserting your goldcard, booting into fastboot mode (back + power) and running this RUU:
http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Bra...3.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe
Do not try to run any OTA updates without your goldcard.
thanks mikey242. Hopefully er_yeah can help me out.

After a few confused minutes working out Fastboot things are looking promising. New ROM has now updated and will try in a sec with OTA Froyo (with goldcard). Thanks a lot so far all 3 of you...
Will update in a minute!

That RUU takes you directly to Froyo.
I used the original RUU as someone on Tmobile has updated to Froyo using it...
Anyway the phone is now debranded and on Froyo and working! So thank you everyone for helping out. I think my key mistake was trying to update OTA without the Goldcard. I have learned my lesson and wont repeat it.
OK I had a slight issue that I had lost all my text messages and Notes I had created in ColourNotes - but this seems like a small price to pay for what was at one point an unusable phone!
Thanks again guys!
Sorry for disappearing, glad that you got it sorted out!

Reset DINC without Screen?

Hi all- I just replaced my phone with Asurion because the screen is dead. I have it rooted s-off with Virtuous 3.2 ROM and stock kernel (my sig is not up to date). I want to reset it before I return it. My problem is I cannot do it because I have no screen. I think I pushed it to S-Off in recover when I still could see a little of it using my good phone as a good guide. Not sure it worked though and don't know how to verify.
Is there a way for me to do this with my PC using ADB? I will need detailed instructions because I am not familiar with ADB or the syntax.
Thanks..........mm
How about putting the stock 2.2 PB31IMG, on your sd card, booting into fastboot. All you should have to do is wait a minute out two to let it load the file then just press volume up to have it start updating. After it's done you will have a stock unrooted 2.2.

Wouldn't I need to navigate the screen to get into fastboot and load the update.zip?
I also thought that would not change the s-off. I am not too concerned about that though because this was not a warranty replacement. Mostly want to wipe the phone.

If you can, take the SD card out and use a micro SD adapter to put the image on the card, then boot into HBOOT. It will automatically find the image and ask you if you want to update. Select yes and you should be back to stock with S-ON.
ETA:
Oh... wait, you don't have a screen at all, even in HBOOT or recovery?

Yup, no screen even in hboot. However if it loads the update.zip automatically (I don't recall this. As I recall you have to enter recovery from hboot, choose install update.zip, and then confirm.) Then all I would need is to know a couple key presses.
Best would be something in ADB on the PC so I see and confirm what happens.

Connect the dead screen Inc to your computer and boot into recovery (hopefully you remember how to do it in the blind or you have another phone to look at what you have to press).
Google the adb commands, navigate to the phone memory and zero format the crap out of it
I went through the same thing, just an idea that could help you out.
Get yourself a giant magnet and rub it all over the phone. Stick it to the battery while it's in too, so everything gets a some magnetic wipe love.
I'm a romwhore, and I'm damn proud of it.
Lol magnets.
Just shake the phone vigorously to scramble your phone's data, render it useless.

Part 2: 2.2 stock using OTA RUU
1. Make sure you're rooted with clockworkmod recovery.
1A. If you're s-off, download http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/sto...orever-son.zip
(NOTE: the unrevoked s-on tool does *not* support the 2.15.00.09.01 radio. If you're running that radio, download this, and flash that PB31IMG.zip in HBOOT before continuing.)
1B. Push that to your SDCard and flash it via clockworkmod recovery.
2. Download this zip file: http://www.fourty.net/~berzerker/sto....605.1_RUU.zip
3. Push PB31IMG-3.21.605.1_RUU.zip to your SDCard, renaming it to "PB31IMG.zip" (no quotes)(delete any other PB31IMG.zip you might have on there before pushing).
4. Boot into HBOOT, and it should recognize the PB31IMG.zip. Start the update and go get a drink (it might reboot once or twice, don't worry about it).
5. When that's done, reboot and you're at 2.2 stock!
That's it! These steps should bring you back to either 2.1 stock or 2.2 stock for a send-in!

sorry I don't have the exact key presses...
Here are the button presses you need for the PB31IMG flash way.
From phone being off
1. Hold vol - and power button
2. Wait about 2 minutes and let it load the PB31IMG file
3. Press vol + after 2 mintues
4. It should reboot kind of quickly
5. After about another 3-4 minutes (after it vibrates letting you know it rebooted) press vol + again.
6. Let it run through the rest and it should reboot again and that should bring it back to the regular stock setup screen that would come up if you just bought the phone.
These are as accurate as I can remember.

Push the update image to the sd card manually (take it out and use a micro sd adapter), boot up to hboot, wait about one minute, push the volume up key (that says yes you want it to find and update the inage) and it should start. Wait a good 15 minutes and press the volume up key to reboot.
I will get the link I got this from in a sec when I get on my laptop.

[Q] Evo Sprint can't boot in, how to install recovery?

My Evo can't boot in android, it just turn on and restart after the Evo logo appear. And when I press power + volume down button I go in hboot mode, click on recovery and after that it's freeze with a picture of a phone , an "!" in a triangle.
I wonder If I can install recovery in this case or not? and how?
I've download PC36IMG.ZIP and supersonic recovery with sdk tool, so how anyone please help me, I need to try to install another ROM to sure it's hardware problem or ROM problem.
If you give me ten minutes I will attach it for you when I get to lappy.
Edit: Tada. Boot into the bootloader, select yes to update and then reboot.

The PC36IMG is the system file the bootloader recognizes as like a system updater. And did you select update and then to reboot, once prompted?

sorry but I don't see the "update" to choose.
I press power + volume down button => it take me to the hboot interface.
The menu there are : fastboot - recovery - clear storage - simlock - hboot usb.
5s later it start to run the PC36IMG file with no notification and log, very fast and disappear.
So, what would I do now?

Two things to double check, to be sure that that the bootloader will recognize PC36IMG. 1) the PC36IMG must be named exactly that. It has to be capital letters, and you do not want it to say PC36IMG.zip, just PC36IMG. The phone automatically recognizes and labels it as a zip file. So if you named it PC36IMG.zip, it will ultimately be named PC36IMG.zip.zip, and will not be recognized.
2) Be sure that the PC36IMG is on the root (main directory) of your SD card, and not within any folders. It won't be recognized if it is in a folder.
If you make sure of those two things, then the bootloader should scan and find the PC36IMG, and instead of seeing it searching and the green lettering pop up, then disappear, you will see it ask you if you want to update, use volume up to select yes. Hope that helps you out.
Edit: And yes, I went to download the PC36IMG attatched above in this thread, and it is indeed labeled PC36IMG.zip. Rename it to PC36IMG (just remove the .zip) That should take care of it.
Also, I never saw this confirmed in the thread, but you were previously rooted and had a custom recovery prior to this problem, correct? And you are indeed s off at the bootloader?

If you're s on and not rooted yet, I dont think you'll just be able to flash recovery. You need to root it first, then flash recovery. You should download an RUU or a PC36IMG of a factory rom. That will get you back to stock. From there, you can run Unrevoked to root it first though (you need to be rooted to flash roms). I will attatch a link with all of the PC36IMG's (you run from bootloader) and RUU's (you run from computer). You can use either method to get the phone back to stock condition (what I recommend). You will at least be able to boot then. From there you can decide if you want to root it and flash a ROM. Read up a bit more also, it will benefit you.

It's not a hardware problem, well, most likely not. Download a PC36IMG from the link I provided for you. It's hard to say which one you need, but try this one first. http://db.tt/gqTAPS1. That is a factory, unrooted ROM for the Evo. It is the latest software, 3.70. It may or may not work for you (you may need an older one, but not sure) What you need to do is download that file, rename it exactly PC36IMG. Put it on the main directory of your SD card. Shut the phone off completely. Hold Volume down and Power simultaneously until you reach the bootloader. At this point, the bootloader should scan the sd card, find the pc36img and ask you to update. You would then press volume up to select yes. Once it starts, let it run through its course. It should take a few minutes to complete, and you will see a couple different screens. whateveer you do, dont pull the battery while it's updating, and be sure you're battery has some charge on it, so it doesnt die in the process. I hope that helps. If that update successfully completes, the phone should be exactly how it came out of the box. Factory Rom. Good luck.

thank you k2, I'm downloading and will flash it A.S.A.P, I'll tell you the result.
Bit off topic but not really...
My EVO was rooted running cm7 with the latest clockwork gotten from and installed from rom manager.
Ran fine for about a week. Then right after pressing send on a replied email, reboot!
Crap I thought I was gonna have to retype the whole thing again...
Nope, it turns out the email had enough time to send but the phone never did reboot.
Just got itself in a loop. White HTC logo, vibrate, white htc logo,vibrate...
Could get to boot loader but when trying to access recovery I would go back into the same loop.
Kinda gave me the impression that the recovery partition was corrupted.
I was already out so I thought "what the hell" and took it to the sprint store. The tech was looking and working on the thing for literally over an hour on my phone (took about 3 hours from when I brought it in). Then finally the tech came out and asked for me. I was positive he had finally figured out it was rooted and was gonna tell me to screw off. Well, instead he said "honestly, I can't figure out what the heck is wrong with this thing, I'm just going to replace it for you,I'll be right back".
OK so now I'm expecting a refurbed phone with my battery and ad card shoved in it. He came back with a new EVO box...
Then he handed me the new one with the 8gb (I only had a 2 in mine) card and the original battery (I have the extended one). Then he said "your card battery charger and everything else is in the box".
SCORE! Haha sometime I actually like sprint...
Moral of the story: if all else fails take it to the store.s

Desire HD stuck on welcome screen after 2.3 update

Hello everyone,
im in urge need of help. I somehow failed while updating to 2.3 :/
I thought that the update was done since the loading bar went to the right and stood there for a good couple of minutes. So i took the battery out. Now as i turn the phone on i only get to see the htc sign on a white background.
I tried holding the volume down key and the power button at once. I get into the recovery menu or whatever it is called. There i've chosen factory reset: i can see a update screen again. The bar doesnt move from left to right though. After 15 sec the phone resets itself and i can see the htc logo again
Recovery only shows me a phone image with a exclamation mark
I never installed anything custom on the phone. It is as i bought it from the shop. I initially had 2.2 on it.
Anyone help please
I will guess you need to put a ROM file on your SD card and select install file from sd card in recovery. If something went wrong during update you proberly dont have a Android system installed right now.
But if your on stock rom I'm not sure if that will be possibl, but hopefully somebody with more knowledge could answear that...
Good luck
If you pulled the battery while it was updating something like the radio, then you have messed it up.
I'd suggest downloading the Gingerbread RUU and trying it again. Sadly you may now lose all the data on you phone.

If anyone could hit me up with the details how Im supposed to bring back my desire hd to live id be forever grateful!!!
Click the link in my sig, head to RUUs and download the Gingerbread RUU. Once downloaded, plug you handset into your computer, run the RUU~.exe .
If that fails to work, with the RUU~.exe still running open a search window on your computer and search for "rom.zip", I will be in a hidden temp folder somewhere in your userdata.
Rename this rom.zip to "PD98IMG.zip" and copy to your SDcard. Now turn off your phone, and power on while holding volume down. The bootloader should see the PD98IMG.zip and flash it for you.

I will guess you need to put a ROM file on your SD card and select install file from sd card in recovery. If something went wrong during update you proberly dont have a Android system installed right now.
But if your on stock rom I'm not sure if that will be possibl, but hopefully somebody with more knowledge could answear that...
Good luck

dont think that this is possible, as he never had a custom revovery à la ClockworkMod installed. So he cant choose which zip to flash.
but i think that andyharney got the solution for this

Damn! I can't find the option to make a e-blowjob but rest assured that if such an option would be there, you'd be the first one to receive it
Thanks a lot! It works. I had my doubts as during the whole instalation my phone showed the htc logo on the white background several times(i thought that it got worse), but in the end i got it back runing!
So happy! Thanks 1.000.000 times and once again: THANKS!
Which method worked the RUU~.exe or the PD98IMG.zip?

[Q] (Q) help! DHD unable to load~!

Help, my DHD unable to load now.. Now stuck in white boot screen and now i cannot even go in to recovery. Who can assist me?
Alright, tell me everything that you did to get it where it is now. The phone boots, which is a good sign.

Thanks for your replies, i wanted to revert back to stock. So i use the ace toolkit to revert back to the version that can flash to stock. After that it re oot but jam at white boot screen. I tried
restore factory settings also no use, wanted to go in recovery also cannot. Hope you guys can help me.
Thanks!
Are you back to son? If so I would just flash a pd98img or ruu.
try take out the battery and then repeat the process it worked for me many times
initially i was afraid that all info will lose or worse the phone will go to brick but at the end everything went well

They are flashed in hboot not in recovery. Its the white screen that says soff etc on top and little androids on bottom.
Place the pd98img file in the root of your SD card.(not in folder ). Pull battery and reinsert. Press volume down and power to enter hboot. It will ask to install the file and press up to accept.
If you don't have a way to transfer the file. Download the ruu. Boot phone into hboot and select fastboot. Then plug in phone to PC and run the ruu
Here is a guide I made a while back. The pd98 I have posted is the sense 2.1 version. In the ruu section the newer on is posted in case you wanted that one. I'm planning on adding a direct link to the sense 3.0 pd98 later today
