Sorry to hear that. But for anyone to be able to help u, u need to list what steps u did to return to HC. explain everything that happened in detail.

link.
i used this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544486

ok sorry should have said that different. now explain what steps u did up until u bricked ur tablet. be as specific as possible. also there are a few good threads in this section that pertain to ur problem.

step i took.
i had the ics leak but i dident want it anymore so i wanted to go back to hc
first i download this link to external sdhttp://vache-android.com/v1/download.php?fileID=109 they said 2 download.
then i renamed it 2 update.zip
next i turned it back on holding the up volume button and power
after that they said turn off during reboot ask they said
next i hard reset
then they give you this link http://fileshost.fr.mu/download/84/S...l_user.7z.html which i downloaded.
then i deleted the other thing (from the first link) so i could name the new one update.zip
i turned it back on holding the up volume button and power
it said tablet configuring.
it restarted.
wen i loaded up it stayed on the andriod load and it just stays there.
so i tried putting ics back on from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510706
that dident work. so now im stuck on andriod loading screen.

You need to do a hard reset after going from the ICS leak to HC. I believe someone already posted the thread link for how to do a hard reset. If not, do a quick search of the A100 forums, and you'll find it.

omg
i did that already.

Did u unlock ur boot loader prior to downgrading to the first update of hc? And the second zip is a 7z, when I downloaded it I had to rename to _______.7z Has to be file type 7z then I had to use 7zip on my PC to extract the update.zip inside that file. Then u can flash it from ur external sdcard

How do I enter command when in fastboot mode (Desire)?

Hello.
I'm pretty sure i bricked my HTC desire yesterday when trying to flash LeeDroids Mod. My phone hangs at the three green HTC letters and it has been like this the whole night. I've tried taking out the battery and things like that but it still hangs. Even when triyng to do a recovery. So i searched the forum to find out how to unbrick the phone and i found a nice thread that explains how to get acces to the SD again and then how to unbrick the USB connection. But I havent been able to try this out yet since i cannot find out how to enter commands when in fastboot. I know I need to be connected with a USB-cable to the PC, but what else do I have to do?
Hope someone can help 'cause I would really love to have my HTC Desire working again so that i can try out more cool FroYo mods from this lovely forum.

you have to use adb, google the android sdk and start there
All you need to do is boot into FASTBOOT, plug in your USB and run an RUU to get back to stock (assumg one is available for your phone) and then root again, had to do it myself the other day
you do not have to do ANY of this
if you are using clockworkmod or any custom recovery then there is the option to mount USB storage in which you can put on a backup or any other rom onto your sd card, unmount usb storage, and flash it, all in one.

How do I do that when my phone doesnt boot? As i wrote in the first post it is stock at the 3 green HTC letters. I was using clockworkmod to flash, but as I wrote i cannot boot into andoid atm.
@AndroHero: Can you please give me a link or something? I have tried a lot of things, but i doesnt seem to work, so I would like to be certain that the link and guide im using is right.

Have you booted the phone while holding the volume down and then selecting recovery, then when recovery boots, press volume up and power then select "apply update.zip" ?
The problem is that when i choose recovery it freezes aswell. The screen with the phone and the little red triangle freezes, so i cannot choose recovery.

What is RUU?
Edit: Maybe I need someone to make a step by step noob guide? Im totally lost. Ive flashed my Desire lots of times before and ive never had a single problem, but right now i really dont know what to do and how to do?
If you're asking questions about RUU's then maybe rooting wasn't for you. It's basic stuff. You need a grasp of the basics before trying something advanced!
Basically it's the official ROM file from HTC/your phone vendor...
Okay. Thanks. I thought that RUU was something like that but I just couldnt see how i should be able to acces any files right now. As i wrote before the phone freezes at the picture of a phone with the red triangle, and i am not able to get any further that that. I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me how and what to do next?
I had the same problem a few days ago. For me it worked to just go through the rooting process again, you can find the steps on modaco (just step 1 of r6), I can't link them at the moment I'm at work and it seems I can't open modaco from here.
Anyways if you follow step 1 you can access the recovery again and the phone will boot past the HTC logo screen.
Also these steps are well documented on modaco.
Try this first since it will save you the step of running the RUU, which I wasn't able to (somehow the software complained my battery was below 30%, which it wasn't)
Good luck hope this solves it for you.

You don't need to go into recovery! boot into FASTBOOT and then leave it at that. Plug the phone in and it will then say FASTBOOT USB. Then run the RUU your phone came with originally. You don't need to go anywhere near Recovery
I am pretty certain that ive found a solution now. I deserve a fist in the nuts for being so stupid not to press volume up + power when trying to get into recovery mode. But fortunately dnlgee asked if i had remembered this. Now that ive gotten this far i should be able to solve the rest. I will however return if im still unable to solve it.

Ah I missed that part, I couldn't access recovery either. Only thing left working was fastboot for me. All other options would hang on the HTC logo screen.

Frozen Epic after CWM 3.0.0.5 Installation! HELP

I just installed CWM 3.0.0.5 and now my Epic is frozen upon reboot! It keeps going to the SAMSUNG black screen and wont move from that.
I reboot in recovery mode and get to the CWM menu but cant do anything from there, cant wipe device, cant remove anything, etc.
Help me fix this!
Im a college student that needs his phone working ASAP!
Thank you!
I warned you in your other thread about not just jumping in head first into an empty swimming pool.
Ok lets see if I can help, so after you rooted with cwm3 and booted into cwm3. It converted all your files correct? If so you probably missed the most important step. After its done converting you need to flash an ext4 compatible rom(cwm3 compatible rom) then you reboot and should be good to go.
Now if you don't have the proper rom on your sd card, you need to go download one and then put it on your sd card, then boot into cwm holding volume down, camera button and power. After it boots into cwm3 use the volume buttons to navigate and the camera button to select, navigate to 'apply zip from sdcard' find your rom you just put on the sdcard and flash it. Its going to be a long day for you, but on the bright side your name is cheech and its 420 sonny. Good luck.
How will you ever get through college if you don't read?

How can I access the SD card if I cant even get past the SAMSUNG screen? I have my phone plugged in and I cant get it to recognize on my computer.
And I go to kent, our motto is "Kent read, Kent write, Kent remember last night, Kent state"

I dont even want CWM on here anymore, I just want my phone working. Is there no way that I can just remove CWM and go back to factory?

Lol... your motto says it all. You will need a card reader and put the rom on the sdcard not in any folder(easier to find and it will be at the bottom).
You can still reboot into cwm by holding volume up, camera, and power and while still holding power and camera slide your thumb to volume down and that should get you into cwm. If it doesn't then pull the battery and boot into cwm.
You can return to stock via odin, but I've only used it twice and it was for flashing a modem both times. I've never flashed a rom with odin so I can't really give any quality advice.

Only way I know of is to use odin here is the threadhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773032
If you have a card reader tho you can still save this by doing what I mentioned in my above post, if you have no card reader, its odin and odin only as far as I know.

I wont lie to you.. Im not sure what the difference is, or which one to chose out of the ones you sent me. But Im gonna wing it. Hopefully it works as long as I follow the directions.
Thanks a lot man, Ill keep you posted
Download the stock eb13 cwm2.5 package if you do everything right it will work and if you get stuck refer to that thread and/or the first one I posted.....good luck, just follow the instructions and you'll be cool.
Trying not to sound rude, I really am...
Read man! Check threads in the development forum about flashing and Odin.
You have 2 options like Epic4GEE stated:
1. From a computer, download an EXT4 compatible ROM to your SD card and boot back into ClockWorkMod to wipe caches and flash.
2. Boot into download mode (1 key + power button to boot) and use Odin to put DI18, EB13 or EC05 back on your device.
There are even video tutorials stickied in the General section to assist people. People are here to assist if you have problems, but you have to help yourself by reading the material first. ;-)

No problem.
Answers can be extremely difficult to locate when **** hits the fan or for someone new. The wiki doesn't appear to be kept all that up to date by us, the community, but then again I haven't checked it in like 2 months.
I'll even go one step further and upload my copy of the EB13 Samsung upgrade tool for you. Here
It's a one stop shop to rescue your phone in its current condition if you just want stock again. It is Odin, but wrapped within a Windows installer-like UI. This will erase all your data. Once installed, the phone will upgrade to EC05 via over-the-air update.
Stickies! Right on top of Development...how to fix "bricked" Epic....even though they mean sponged.

Thank you to everyone who helped me out in this thread. My phone is now fixed. Turns out the .tar / PDA file that I was using in Odin was corrupt and wouldnt work fully.
I used a different version which seemed to work fine, then it upgraded once I turned my phone on.

Thanks again everyone!

Please Help me! Stuck in fastboot!

Hey guys, earlier I managed to sucessfully unlock the bootloaders and thought i might try to install one of DoomLords Kernals, the Kernal initially loaded and I went to install the wifi module zip. Afer I did that, I tried to reboot but the phone was not rebooting so I thought instead I would try to relock the bootloader anyway. I happened to have installed one img file from a video on Youtube regarding the Xperia S.
I think I might have installed the wrong img file and now I and now I can only enter the fastboot. Whatever I do i cannot get back into the system. I flashed a generic stock rom 2.3.4 just incase I had lost the system files, once I connect the phone to the computer the PC Companion seems to recognise the phone but I do not see anything?
What have I done wrong here and how do I fix this problem!!?!
Help will be well appriciated! Thanks!
PS: Sony Update Service says " The phone has modified software that cannot be updated ".
"What have I done wrong"??
U CAN'T randomly pick IMG files and flash like this buddy...you're lucky u don't have a brick.
Now I suggest you download the update manager from Sony and connect your phone go back to stock. Forget root, forget unlocked boot loaders..
Sent from my RaZr NeXus.
Flash an ftf file, tutorials are everywere, and to relock the bootloader for our device you have to flash another ftf file somewere.
The method hasnt worked.... the phone still does not switch on.... here is the log data from flashtool...
Have u tried Sony's update manager??

[Q] Samsung t989 Galaxy S II - Bootloop HELP please :(

I downloaded the Jedi Mind Trick JB 2 ROM and installed it via clocwork mod recovery .. That went fine but it took me a few days to realize I didnt have a working video camera anymore on my phone.. so I thought to flash a stock ROOTed rom instead...
Then I found this threat about an updated version of Jedi Mind Trick's ROM labled JB 3.. So I wiped as much as I could in recovery and chose to format all the options it gave me in recover , Format system , data , cache , emms(or something) .. and now when I boot the phone , it shows the first flash screen , and the samsung logo starts to shimmer then it reboots back to the splash screen and repeats this process everal times before just going black and sitting there..
So I've successfully bootlooped my phone doing this..
MY PROBLEM -- I don't know how to charge my phone or connect to it to install anything else..
Is this a serious problem? How can I charge my phone to continue troubleshooting it? It still has some battery to try some things but I don't know how to hook it up to transfer any other roms to it via USB cable and PC in it's current state..
I'm very computer savvy but I'm trying to learn this phone modding stuff and I realy hope I didn't brick my phone in this process.
Can someone please help me out here? I'll be on the forums religiously until I figure this out.
What should I start doing first??
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!
still working at it
I think I'm at the point of having to use ODIN to flash a new rom since i cannot simply copy this rom to the sdcard to use clockwork to flash it .. Am I correct on this ?
For some reason this rom I found (should be stock rooted tmobile gSII rom) does not want to open from ODIN's PDA button cause its in .zip and not .tar or anything... I'm not sure how to flash this rom with ODIN ( I'm not even 100% sure this is how its supposed to go) Any suggestions ?
phew
UPDATE - So I managed to research enough to find out that there is no way to flash a CUSTOM rom with ODIN.. SO I had to download a stock (presumably rooted) t-mobile rom and flash THAT ...
Now I'm back up with a rooted rom and will begin re-installing clockwork and then my custom deodexed rooted rom afterward.
Thanks for all who almost kinda tried to care to reply in this past 2 hours =) -- As previously mentioned.. I am a nerd.. I just suck at phone modding. Haha
So , looks like I'm in the clear now and don't need any more support on this particular topic yet.

Is this true? Through a recommendation (haven't done anything to my phone from rooting/flashing KANGSJUGGERNAUT2 years ago), I tried to flash CM10 and ended up with a bootloop myself. Tried flashing through ODIN but it kept crashing; does anyone know why?
Afterward, I tried to reflash it through CWM and from then on bootloops into a installation process that never completes.
For some reason my CWM turned super slow, freezes/hangs and reboots after a few minutes.
I gave the phone to a friend who does this stuff on the regular but he said my initial flash wasn't complete cause in download mode says I'm still running official? No clue.
I was told this via email/chat: "No luck, it won't even boot anymore, I think I'll just bring it back tmrw morn
10:43 PM
Sorry I'm at a wedding (yea I know random) I left my phone with coat check
OK I've narrowed down the reason but not the solution, you had an AOKP based ROM which fundamentally is based on CyanogenMod, but it wasn't correctly flashed as the phone still thought it has factory ROMs still running
11:10 PM
Clockworkmod(even though it was working before) wasn't accessing the partitions of the phone correctly so it wasn't properly wiping or flashing properly.
11:12 PM
So basically from the first time you flashed cwm it didn't flash properly then the next time you flashed using the new recovery it didn't flash anything it was supposed to do itself properly , so basically it was a chain of events in addition to a bad boot loader, that's why it never went to recovery or download mode correctly
11:13 PM
That's something that had to do with the way the phone was built meaning you may of had a bad bootloader from the very begin and are now feeling the synptoms
Basically, and I would hate to be the reason or partially the reason you have a dead phone, basically it was a matter of coincedencr that it happened as this could of happened at anytime, once you have a bad boot loader its pretty much down hill from there"
Any helpful insight as how I can rectify this? is my phone truly dead? Sorry about the quoted format, it was copied and pasted.
If I were in your boat, I'd use Odin and flash the stock 4.1.2 ROM.

sorry but i have to assume that you are not doing the 3 button recovery or download mode right.
Pull battery, put battery back in, hold power button & Vol +/- untill you see SAMSUNG on the screen ---> let go off power button(keep holding
Vol +/- button) .....u will see recovery. (assuming you did flash cwm before).
Let me know.

And sorry, no, I've tried many times, many methods and my phone is confirmed as entirely hard bricked.
SUPAR SAD, but thank you!

you can try using adb and put the phone in dl mode.
sometimes its as easy as pull battery and wait awhile (20 min or more) and try again.
if you've exhausted all possibilities, you can use a jig to force a dl mode.
let me know

I don't know what adb is, or how to use it; I have, however seen my friend RDP to my desktop and do something and used the term 'adb' in his attempt to code through the phone.
I've done that battery waiting period, for nearly an hour and still no result.
After doing some researching, I have found that many people have stated a USB JIG would not be applicable to a 'hard bricked' phone. I really wanted to try as it looked like the most, simple and inexpensive solution.
