If you have a PD98IMG.zip image in the sdcard erase it. Then flash a recovery....there's no need to have a PD98IMG file in the sdcard....

This morning i just flashed the new froyo rom that the xda guys had made and it said if you was experiencing any led problems to go into adb and delete a file.
I went into adb and mounted the system, but didnt delete a file, when i came out i didnt exit, i just pulled the usb cable,
is it possible that my system is still mounted and is stuck?
when i rebooted i am stuck on a boot loop from the first htc screen and i have no way of getting into recovery...
I dont think this is a usb brick as i didnt flash anything,
im not sure what to do now;(
I cant even flash a new ruu from fastboot;(
Hope you guys can help

Almost the same hapened to med yesterday, but i was able to reflash.
Take out the batery and start into recovery directly, wipe before flash.
Good luck, i hope it works out for ya.

And trying to flash a stock ROM from the built-in recovery (the one accessible with volume-up and power from the HBOOT's red triangle screen)?
Just to be clear, with the device turned off you can't get into HBOOT holding vol. down and turning it on?

Just boot your Desire with volume-down pressed and once in the HBOOT, select RECOVERY; then, as the red triangle screen appears press volume-up and power until you reach a blue recovery console that has a "Flash from sdcard" menu entry.
Copy a stock ROM to your sdcard and flash it.
I've never tried that, but I readed that the console is able to flash HTC signed stuff, so give it a try...

If the RUU isn't detecting the phone, try running it while in fastboot usb. To do that, boot to your bootloader. Select the 'fastboot' option. Then plug your evo in to the USB. It should say 'fastboot usb' now. At this point, try running the RUU. It should detect the phone and run from fastboot usb. When you tried the PC36IMG.zip, and it failed, what happened? Did it give you any errors? Did it not detect the PC36IMG? The more detail you leave here, the better help we'll all be able to give you. What hboot version are you on? We could try using fastboot to erase EVERYTHING in your phone, then try the RUU from a clean slate.
EDIT: Also, for the RUU to work, you do need to have HTC Sync installed on your computer. It contains the required drivers for the RUU to work.

Go to a on recovery thread and download the pc36img.zip to flash recovery. Once done go into your nandroids and restore if hopefully you have some and you did nandroids with A on. If not go to the clockwork thread and look for their recovery and see if there is an boot method to flash it. Then you can try and wipe all or run caulkins wipe all and flash thru recovery
Edit: that Amon and not A on

That is stock recovery. When you ran the RUU, it would have taken your phone back to Stock, out of the box.
Are you still S-Off?? (Check in Bootloader, at the top of the screen)
If you are, search Amon Ra Recovery, get the PC36IMG and put it on the root of your SDCard, and then reboot to Hboot (Vol-Dwn & Pwr at the same time)
It should discover the file, ask you to update, say yes, then it will flash recovery on your phone. Once it's done flashing, it will restart hboot, find the file again, ask you to upgrade, this time say no, then scroll to recovery and hit power button to enter. Now, you're in recovery, you can clear your caches and flash a ROM, IF you didn't screw things up by flashing the ROM from the other phone.
Matter of fact, since you have RUU flashed, you may want to just try to boot up normally before anything else, just to see what happens.
Ok, so I flashed a Shift ROM. It worked perfectly for about 2 hours. I looked over and found my Dinc in a loop.....
starting and making it to htc splash screen
rebooting itself

pulled the battery
i can get into the bootloader, but not recovery
if i select recovery the cycle of rebooting starts all over again
Um, help?
Anyone have a PB recovery image I can flash? Will this work?
You can try the stock RUU, its a PB31IMG.zip and flashed in bootloader. Get it at www.dougpiston.com under stock images I think.

If you out the stock RUU file on your sd card and it is named PB31IMG.zip, bootlader recognizes it and flashed the file. There is no need to get into recovery with that file.

Hi, after attempting to flash a custom ROM to my phone I'm experiencing a big problem, the phone will not boot past the HTC screen. This is obviously very frustrating as the phone is pretty much rendered useless.
I am able to get into the HBOOT menu by holding the Power button and Volume Down and from there am able to select Recovery and enter the ClockWork Mod recovery screens. As you can tell I'm a 100% noob and I really just want to revert my phone to a working state. My network is Vodafone UK. I can't find an RUU above version 3.13 which is apparently what I have (so it tries updating 3.13 to 3.13 and obviously fails).
Any help on getting my phone to work again would be very very appreciated, thanks.

Download a ROM onto your computer, connect to your phone in recovery, mount the sdcard, move the ROM from your computer onto your phone's sdcard, and flash from recovery. No need for RUU.
Dont forget to wipe.
wipe data/factory reset and format all partitions (except sd card) from recovery.
Go to bananagranolas link in her signature, you'll find everything you need there.
Thanks a lot for your help! I was attempting to flash the JellyTime ROM which I understand must have failed to result in my phone not booting properly. Should I flash a stock ROM or will any ROM suffice?

As long as you are S-OFF and have a custom recovery (CMW or 4EXT) you are able to flash any custom rom you like. Just make sure that you make a full wipe before the flashing (wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, format system or in 4ext recovery just choose format all partitions except sdcard).
That should leave you up and running again.
Okay great!
I used the HTCDev tools to unlock my boot loader which I understand is different to S-OFF? Could that be while the ROM flashing failed originally?
EDIT: Upon trying to flash the JellyTime AKOP Rom I get a message saying install from SD card complete but it's still stuck at the HTC screen...

If you have an unlocked bootloder, then you have to flash the rom (previous full wipe of course) then reboot bootloader (from advanced options in CWM) and then in fastboot (you should see fastboot usb in red in the phone when plugged to the pc) you have to flash the boot.img inside the rom zip folder.
Extract that file only (not the whole rom) and from a cmd session or terminal as root (located where the boot.img file is) type:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Once that is done (you will get OKAY. finished near the bottom) you can reboot normally by typing in cmd fastboot reboot or choosing reboot from hboot.

Use the token HTC sent you when u unlocked it. and typing in cmd the fastboot unlock command.

EDIT: well, don't I feel stupid. I knew full well from reading that your phone wasn't working, but posted a link to an app. Just not paying attention. Sorry about that.
VBQ24,
You can go back to stock by flashing a stock RUU from your PC.
(Edit: You should relock your bootloader first. you can do so from Hboot. There's an option that says relock bootloader or something like that)
The version of the RUU should be equal or greater to the version that came with your phone. Try this v3.13
However, if you want to flash a custom ROM:
You need to downgrade your device first, get s-off and root, then flash a custom ROM
You need to use the Advanced Ace Hack Kit (AAHK), get it from here.
Make sure to read the manual (called 'effin manual) word by word. There are instructions on how to downgrade.
Follow the instructions, and if you have any questions, ask here.

You need to flash a new recovery I think,
I think touch is supported with TWRP 2.5 or 2.6, or philz touch recovery.
I believe that if you flash the new TWRP over the old one, your backups are safe and touch is restored.

Best thing to do is to get your recovery working.
Are you sure that after you flashed the recovery you did:
fastboot erase cache
and are you sure your phone is international?

boot.img refers to the actual boot.img you have so you need the correct path to it.
or simple do:
