Hi,
My HTC DESIRE is stuck on black screen with HTC logo and /!\ in the 4 corners after i tried to upgrade to Android 2.3 with the RUU downloaded from HTC web site (htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads). The upgrade looks like it run correctly but at the end I have the following error :
ERROR [152] : IMAGE UPDATE ERROR
The ROM update utility cannot update your Android Phone
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
After recovery when i remove the USB cable i have the following screen on my DESIRE:

I tried to download RUU again and tried on an other PC nothing change. My previous ROM was 2.209.405.8, tried to install it again but still same issue. I did not do any customization on my desire,
I’m novice so really don’t know what do to.
Thanks in advance for any help.

The boot loader was the official 2.3 and that was then S-OFFed with Revolutionary, that then had the Oxygen R2 HBOOT Partion table on it.
Now I ran the 2.3 update on the wrong phone.
The HBOOT Currently says Alpharev Oxygen r2

Then is just says RRU instead of the usual options
When I first turn it on, it shows a black screen with white HTC and 4 ! in triangles in the corner.
I've been told this is bad...
If I try to run the updater, it eventuaklly goes to recover mode and says its fixed but its not.
I get this on the desire screen

Maybe a full wipe helps. And it could be that you derooted your handy. In this case you had to run unrevoked again.
Good luck

U have the oxygen hboot, its too small for the stock gingerbread rom
Flash the downgrader hboot from alpharev.nl (otherwise the ruu CANT overwrite the alpharev oxygen hboot), then run the ruu
How do I go about flashing it? Everything seem pretty broke..
Any surely the RRU should be repartitioning the HBOOT to the correct size?
Bouncer5 said:

Nothing is broken..U have to read again alpharev.nl
Download from alpharev the file PB99IMG_downgrade.zip and following instruction:
http://alpharev.nl/
You can also download the corresponding PB99IMG zipfile, put it on your sdcard, and rename it to PB99IMG.zip. Then start the phone in HBOOT mode (VolDown+POWER) to flash the HBOOT without a PC.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It will ask u to apply the update, then accept it (volume keys to navigate, power button to confirm)
After that ur hboot can be overwritten by the ruu..and the ruu will work fine
The thing is I have already added the file to my SD Card. Now when I boot my phone, the VERY first thing it does is a black screen with HTC in white. and in the corners are 4 ! in triangles, The only way to see the HBOOT Screen from there is to connect a USB cable and unplug, on that screen I have no options to do anything!
I dont even have anything I can record a video on to show you, Arrrgh this is annoying. HTC would like money out of me for a "non-warranty issue"

Did u boot the phone in hboot? remove battery, plug again, press and hold volume down then press and hold also the power button..it should boot soon in the hboot and ask u for an update
Yes im positive, I have done it many many times before.
And what im getting here is not what you would normally get
HTCs customer support is terrible! Seriously do not want to be charged to get it fixed never mind a bloody shipping and handling fee!!
oh..i see..how about flash the hboot img (instead of the zip) with fastboot command?
Sure point me to what I need and where I can find it and I shall give that a try

Download this file http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=630611&d=1308537074
It contain a mininal set of files in order to use fastboot, without installing the android sdk
Then download this http://alpharev.nl/bravo_downgrade.img and put in the same extracted directory above..
Boot ur phone in hboot mode and plug the usb (u said with the usb plugged u see the hboot usb)..then from a command prompt from ur pc, go in the directory above and type: fastboot flash hboot bravo_downgrade.img
If that is successfull..u can run an ruu, and it should restore everything, even the hboot now!
Am I missing a trick I run it and it shows on screen for a split second.
And if it doesn't fix it?!
Nevermind think I remebered how to do it...

Hi, I have just bought a second hand Desire for my wife. The person I bought it off had changed the HBOOT and put Oxygen rom on it. She wanted it back to sense so I tried to flash the official RUU via HTC Synch thinking it would change the HBOOT at the same time. Now all I have is HTC in the middle of the screen with an exclamation mark in each corner.
Anyone give me a step by step guide of how to get it working again??.
Thanks in advance.....
Scotty.
cant u just flash the alphrev stock hboot or zip. or reflash recovery??

Read the adb and Fastboot faq via my signature (ignore all the adb stuff, read just fastboot).
Set up your computer for fastboot (or download Fastboot flash utility - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638)
Download this: http://alpharev.nl/bravo_downgrade.img
Boot into fastboot (from off hold back and press power)
Using the knowledge from the FAQ and / or Fastboot flash utility, Flash the bravo_downgrade.img as a hboot (eg fastboot flash hboot bravo_downgrade.img)
Run RUU again
This may not make sense looking at it now, but read the FAQ and it will.

I cannot install the android flasher as (on one pc) it says I need .net framework which I downloaded but then it says searching for updates and then says an exception has occured and won't do anything else. And on my laptop it says error checking for updates and then get the exception message.
Any ideas??
Easy way- grab PB99IMG.zip containing bravo_downgrade.img from Alpharev, check md5 checksum (if it's not correct- redownload), put it on SD and boot to bootloader. Hboot will be flashed by bootloader itself

Hi all.
Download and unzip unrevoked, the easiest rooting method known to man. This works on any HTC phone, so if you have a different phone than the Incredible 2, just select whatever phone you have.
Thanks.

Dont worry what is already in there, thats nothing to do with what we're doing. Zune is an MS thing so its not implausable that its there.
1 thing though, is it my sdk tools, or googles? If its googles, check in the folder to make sure adb and fastboot are there, as they may actually be in platform-tools instead. Amend the line you are adding if that is the case. Or just add both, ie:
;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools;C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

Remove RUU from sd-card or remove card- bootloader tries to flash it if file is found.
Also in bootloader mode you don't have access to adb- this requires running system or recovery.

Hi,

You have cm7r2 hboot which gives you only 145MB for system partition and RUU requires stock partition table (250MB for system).
Flash alpharev stock hboot via fastboot, it can be obtained here:
alpharev.nl
After that run RUU, it should work perfectly.
Plus:
Reconsider using some other RUU the one you used is history old. Try with 2.3 RUU.

Thanks for that, i'm used to my sensation for flashing ROMs etc, i've just read up on this phone as I didn't realise there is different hboots to make different file tables!

Hi,
Yeah, i've tried installing them but nothing seemed to happen, i've gone in to device manager and changed drivers so instead of "My HTC" it now shows as "Android Bootloader Interface" but it still sits on "Waiting for device." Are there any ROMS that use the CM7 r2 available as a RUU package?
lol i just read the first post, sorry my bad. u r s-off and have CM7r2 hboot. if u dont like CM rom why not just flash another instead of going completely stock and s-on?

I was going to just install the RUU for now but that might have been a better idea before starting lol... Unless I can get either revolution to work so I can reflash a recovery or a RUU..

Thanks for that, downloaded android flasher - which partition do I flash the hboot file to?
with android flasher ur phone has to be in fastboot mode, plug in ur phone so it says fastboot usb, then with android flasher pick bootloader and find the alphrev stock hboot (img) file u downloaded and flash

Problem is when I plug the USB in, even doing the vol down + power press brings me this...
rite so ur stuck in ruu mode. android flasher should still work coz u can still use fastboot commands. try flash the stock hboot img with android flasher. turn off phone then hold back button + power, that brings u to fastboot

I've tried that, and got the following:
C:\Users\Phil\Desktop\Android_AIO_Flasher\tools>fastboot flash boot "C:\Users\Phil\Downloads\bravo_alphaspl.img"
sending 'boot' (512 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.098s]
writing 'boot'...
C:\Users\Phil\Desktop\Android_AIO_Flasher\tools>
FAILED (remote: image error! (BootMagic check fail))
finished. total time: 0.099s
ul have to try with fastboot commands instead, here r the commands - fastboot flash hboot C:\bravo_alphaspl.img
put the bravo_alphaspl.img directly into ur C drive then run command

Thanks for that - took me a second to realise I needed a cmd prompt but its sorted now
My problem: (I'm a total noob)
1. used Unrevoked 3.21 to ROOT - finished
2. used Revolutionary to S-OFF - finished
However, desire went into bootloop. Finally loaded, worked fine. After restart - same bootloop.
3. Decided I would just restore everything by flashing stock RUU as in video (noob proof guide)
used 2.29.405.14 32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27 (same as mine)
Finished installation, but on boot desire gets stuck on white HTC screen.
Details:
Revolutionary
Bravo pvt1 S-OFF
Hboot 6.93.1002
Tried the following methods described in bortak's troubleshooting guide:
[1] didn't work - press "Recovery" --> white HTC screen
[2] Method 1 - Android flasher freezes after: "booting, OKAY, finished." --> white HTC screen. Recovery --> white HTC screen.
[2] Method 2 - "fastboot oem gencheckpt"- phone goes to white HTC screen - cmd freezes after "Info hboot time"
Disconnect phone -> "failed (status read failed (too many links)) finished. total time". Recovery --> white HTC screen.
Could you help me, please?
Should I just try to rerun the same RUU on fastboot? Or flash the same ROM with PB99IMG.zip method? Any other actions necessary or any other suggestions?

Code:
I know I just replied differently on my guide, but try this first.
Get cmd out and type some things! You'll need fastboot for this, you can find a zip file which contains all you need on my guide, attached in one of my posts called fastboot.zip. unzip it into c:\
Download a recovery image (.img file), rename it to recovery.img and place it into c:\ boot your phone into fastboot mode (when it's off, hold back and power), and plug it in via USB.
[code]fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot oem gencheckpt
This should flash and boot your new recovery. If it doesn't work then grab the 2.3 RUU from resources on my guide. You don't need a goldcard, or anything. Just the RUU, boot into fastboot, plug in via usb and run RUU.exe
[PROBLEM SOLVED]
Thanks, bortak. The first method didn't work.
Installed 2.3 RUU - finished installation:
windows - "this program might not have installed correctly"
desire - bootloop.
Removed sd card, booted - everything's fine, inserted sd card - everything's fine. Tried rebooting - fine.
The device seems to be running fine.
[PROBLEM SOLVED]
At last I'm able to enjoy my desire
bortak, thank you very very much for you support )

In my sig, there's an sd-card partitioning guide. In that guide, you will find methods to install 4ext recovery. Try them.
thanks dude, i will try and let you know, :good:
jmcclue said:
Updated to the latest version, 4ext Recovery Touch v1.0.0.5 RC9
EDIT: No need to rename it now, just download and put on sdcard.
Edited because some people could not get it to work because renaming it was the hardest thing in the world :banghead:
All credits to Madmaxx for this great recovery....
Download PB99IMG.zip and put it on ur sdcard and then with ur phone off hold volume down + power. ur bootloader will look for the PB99IMG then ask u if u want to update recovery, volume up for YES, it will then ask you to reboot device, volume down for NO. Once its finished u now have 4ext recovery and just use volume buttons to navigate to recovery then press power button to enter recovery. I have tried it myself and it works, its the exact same method to install as Alpharev's hboots via PB99IMG.
Dont forget u must be S-OFF lol
Dont forget to delete it off sdcard once ur done or u will get asked to update everytime u enter bootloader
MD5 - 79496e1478ea56e33f3f2d90ac88adfe
(Also u can extract the PB99IMG.zip file and flash recovery.img via fastboot commands or android flasher)

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 :
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.02.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNW0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
RUU
[1] BOOT - OK
[2] BOOTLOADER - OK
[3] RADIO_v2 - Fail-PU
[4] RADIO_CUST -OK
[5] RECOVERY - OK
[6] SPLASH1 - OK
[7] SYSTEM - OK
[8] USERDATA - OK
Partition update fail!
Update Fail!
My phone image is the 2.29.405.7 one.
I really donn't k now what to do.
Thank you very much in advance.

I'm experiencing the same problem the difference is that I'm with the latest official version.Before I tried to install any RUU's the phone was booting in normal mode everytime I start it now it boot's on RUU mode with the black logo and the triangles on the all 4 corners. I tried the command fastboot oem boot and it boots but the it turns off and reboots at RUU mode the problem is that when pressing volume down and the power button I can not access the hardware reset menu.

If u have the same problem "RADIO_V2 - Fail-PU" then its hardware fault. The fact that ur phone just reboots to ruu mode u definitly have hardware problem. U can keep trying to flash the 2.3gb upgrade from htcdev and hope it boots but if it does then it wont last long till it starts rebooting itself. Only real fix is new motherboard.
