Develop Bugs

How can I reinstall Android?

Hi,
My phone stopped working after installing an app that might have contained some malicious code. I cannot get the phone into recover mode as when I boot up pressing the down or up volume button I cannot select anything.
When I connect to my computer using USB, I can use the fastbook command from the Android development kit, and reboot the phone normally. When I do this, all I can see on the screen is HTC is big writing. I can never access the SD card directly either.
During a normal boot, the phone says it cannot find a few files and hangs in the boot menu.
Anybody got any advise?
Thanks in advise.

Thanks, tried that and it appears to have upgraded it to 1.02.0000, but the problem is still exactly the same.

can you post here what is your device information: hboot ver., radio, marvel/c/ct and other information which will help?
P.S. you don't need to write thanks, there is a button under my avatar

I had the same thing happen a few days ago... it was a PAIN to get my phone back to life!!
I was installing some fonts when it froze... then no matter what i did, it got stuck on the boot screen.
So... what worked for me was... turn phone off (which for me the only way was to take the battery out), take SD card out, put battery back, restart phone to bootloader (vol down+power). I had previously installed clockworkmod on it, so with that i could revive the phone.... BUT could not put the stock rom back on it, have tried different versions... so i'm using a custom rom (WildChild Sense) now... which BTW is much better!!
Oh and if your phone flashes this screen for a sec or two (see attachment) you don't need to worry about it, it has nothing to do with anything.... mine is working fine now and still get that message.
Good luck!

Oh god.. That's not good.
Does it show a led, or something, when plugged in?
Take your battery out, press the power button for 10 seconds, plug the battery back in, then try to boot.
Or put your phone in the freezer for 5 minutes with the battery taken out, then try to boot.
If none of these work, then say goodbye to your Desire. You'll have to either get a new phone, or replace the motherboard.

I've tried the first one and it didn't work, tried the freezer, nothing worked too, i guess i'd have to go get the board flashed

PLEASE HELP ME TO FIND THE RIGHT RUU or any other method that would work.
bear in mind iam unrooted.
What am i supposed to do to fix my phone? any clue?
via RUU or .... ............

If your aiming for a stock rom, Just create a goldcard and try flashing your stock rom.
You can extract the rom.zip file in ruu by
The process:
- Download a RUU from anywhere (you already have one)
- Open/Run the .exe You'll get something like this
- Click the Start button
- Select the Run command and type in: %temp%
- Search for a folder that has a bunch of characters and looks somewhat like this: {XXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXX} just keep on searching in each folder, if you have patience you'll find it.
- And inside that folder should be another folder that looks the same, and has the format above.
- Find a zip file called rom.zip -
-Rename the rom.zip to PD98IMG.zip
If you already created a goldcard. put the PD98IMG.zip in the root of your sd card
Go to bootloader and pressing -volume and power button.
Rom zip will automatically detected and you will be ask to update.
Hope it helps "newbie here" :fingers-crossed:

Iam not aiming on stock. actually i dont care. i just want my phone back working.
i dont have a goldcard. can i make one with unrooted and locked phone?
i tried with flash from sd card extracted rom and renamed as PD98IMG - it comes to do you want to update? pressed vol.buton up than shows update in progress and stuck for over a hour.
doesent work
thanks for effort

Its easy to create a goldcard, any sd card will do.
Links is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970157
if you cannot get your cid just use the attach file goldcard.img below
i dont know if it would work, but since you haven't find any solution yet, you could at least try.
Hope it helps your phone...:fingers-crossed:

Have you tried with a different sdcard? have you also checked the md5sum or the RUU? maybe you can flash it in fastboot (read the guide in my signature to find out how)

Bricked HTC Desire?

Hello!
I have recieved a "bricked" phone today and I want to try and make it work.
The problem I'm encountering is pretty strange to me so I'd be glad if someone could help me. I've seen a few topics here but they are either outdated or they don't solve my problem.
First, the phone boots into a 4-exclamation mark in corners screen. I've tried to run fastboot oem boot, or fastboot reboot-bootloader but it did not work.
When running fastboot oem boot, the HTC logo on white background appears and the phone vibrates a few times. I've attached the fastboot getvar allbelow.

Can you run the 2.3.3 ruu?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using XDA Free mobile app

I tried to run it but it gave me an error and it reports Radio_V2: Fail-PU which seems to me a radio brick. I'm trying the freezer trick right now.
The freezer trick seemed to work, I succesfully flashed 2.3 update. Now the phone is in a boot loop. Any ideas?

Haven't seen a radio brick in a while.
You either try to flash the 2.3 RUU a billion times hoping that it will eventually flash the radio, or change the motherboard.
I would personally recommend looking for a new phone.

It now says that the 2.3.3 RUU has flashed successfully which seems pretty strange, it's still in bootloop.
This is more like a personal challenge for me, as I am in love with HTC Desire Bravo (I have 2 more) and I really want to make it work.
I can get into bootloader now.

Hehe, the good ol freezer trick. This thread reminds me of the old days. @jmcclue
Yup, overheating of the motherboard . So yeah, as I said, replace the motherboard. I don't think you can find desire motherboards though.

Well, I got the whole phone completely disassembled. I opened out the metal box over the GPU and CPU and cleaned everything with alcohol (99.7%). Still not working. Guess I can't do anything more, though I enjoyed doing this attempt to repair it.

Help me find corrent RUU for my HTC one X

Mine was stucked in boot loop after flashing incorrect ROM (i think)
Right now it can boot into recovery but cannot find any ROM that would install. After searching I think the solution would be flashing the RUU(i think also) but I couldn't find the correct one, here are my details

Your phone is not an HTC One X International. The first line shows EVITA PVT SHP S-ON RL
This HTC One XL or One X (North America)
Do you know which model you have?

If your One x Evita is a AT&T branded phone. Try this RUU.

Hi, thank you for your reply, yes I have an AT&T, hopely this works, its been weeks that my phone is not working, BTW what will be the correct process to install this RUU? Do I need to relock my HTC? or just rebootRUU?
Another info that I like to share , "fastboot get version-main" & "adb devices" doesn't display any information, only in "getvar All' where I got some information
modelid: PJ8310000 - This is what I have when I execute fastboot getvar All

Oh my, what happened?
It was in the middle of installing RUU when i thought it will finally repaired.. It shuts down & no longer charging? I tried to wait by keeping it plugged but still no led light, but everytime i plug & unplug it could here that my computer is detecting it?
What happened?

It is recommended that you do "fastboot oem relock" before running the ruu.
Did you make sure that the phone had 100% charge BEFORE you ran the ruu file?
If the phone died...its bricked
Can you boot the phone to Hboot?

Your device is dead. You can unbrick it if you have access to a Riff Jtag tool. This tool cost £191.66 (ex. VAT) to buy new.

You can either solder you own cables to the pinout or buy this ready-made adapter for the PJ8310000
