craig

Pull battery and put back in then hold volume down + power button and tell us what it says in the menu. S-on/off, hboot etc etc. Also read bortak's guide in Desire Q&A/ stickies. If you are on your computer/laptop it will be the first post in Desire Q&A.

well volume down and power i get fastboot recovery clear storage or simlock but i can only do this if the usb is connected soon as i unplug it goes off? when i try using recovery there is no recovery cwm etc i have flashed custom roms etc before on xperia x10 mini and i was hoping id be able to do something similar on this? also on x10 mini if there is a problem on your fone you can use sony erricson update servive to reflash original firmware cant seam to do that with this as fone wont switch on ?

Ok go to desire q&a/stickies and read bortaks guide. Go down to [2]

Running the ruu will revert ur phone to stock and then u can continue with s-off etc etc.
Fastboot is back button + power then run the file

[Q] Desire fails to enter recovery

Hi, sorry in advance if I missed solution somewhere but I have tried searching for answers. Either nothing works or problem is slightly different to other reports.
My problem is that following upgrade to CM7 RC, I believe the wrong Google Apps was installed. In a nutshell, now my phone wont boot into Android. I tried booting into recovery, I get to the first screen, and select recovery, phone vibrates and then I get the HTC logo come up and at that point phone freezes with no response until I remove battery.
I have followed various guides re unbricking but to no avail. Issue seems to be that ADB cant identify my phone or no drivers are present to allow me to unbrick. I am running Windows 7 64bit and understand this could be an issue. Please point me to the latest guide in unbricking as there is heaps out there but some very old.
Thanks P
You could try an ruu then root again. Yes it is a pain but might be a faster fix than actually finding a thread. If you can't then look through the Android Development thread. There are a few guides in there somewhere and also look in the Desire Index thread as well

Make sure HTC sync is uninstalled,but leave the drivers in,and unrevoked driver in device manager

[Q] black HTC screen

mmm how can do
S-OFF your Desire using Revolutionary.
http://revolutionary.io/
Conquered the same problem
Hello there,
I ran into the same problem yesterday. My desire was double bricked haha. At first I had my Desire to the level that I could only get into the Fastbootmode, the Bootloader and the Recovery by using faulty downgrade software. Then I got the great idea to use some RUU's and I managed to brick the phone to the level you're at right now. I managed to solve this problem by using the official 2.3 upgrade RUU from HTC (you can download this at the HTCdev website). Still want to jump in the custom rom pool? Use the Revolutionary root&S-OFF tool.
Hope I helped
i try this but he show me waiting for device"it did n detect my device in this situation"
also the alpharev 1.8 he didnt reconised my device
Do you want to tease us? Why creating two threads about the exact same problem:

That's no reason for creating two threads. If anybody can help you and sees your thread, he will answer you, no matter you created one or two threads. Furthermore, answers might be posted double or even more and you can be confused by that and do something wrong, which in the worst case bricks your phone.

if the hboot is still stock then running the RUU may solve this problem
Can you go into recovery? have you made any backup?

He got the phone like that off a friend. I dont think hes worried about a backup lol. Pull the battery out and put back in then hold volume down + hold power button down for bout 3-4 seconds and a menu will come up then say if your s-on/ s-off etc etc. Bortak's guide covers this anyway, think its numer [4] in the guide.
Sent from my HTC Desire
posting as much info as much you can, post the screen when you unplug usb cable, mostly hboot version, s-on/off etc
running CORRECT RUU or 2.3.3 RUU from htcdev.com(some risk involved) may sort it...

no, nothing happens
what error does 2.29 WWE RUU give you?
No, you need S-OFF only for advanced playing with your device. A normal, so called stock device should work with S-ON.
What does happen, when you try to install the RUU? What king of OS do you use? Is there a error message? Did you ever try to access an android via adb or fastboot?
I had this problem. Use a PB99IMG.zip file, extract it and fastboot flash the hboot, the reboot-bootloader,then flash system.img and boot.img (in that order). Then fastboot oem boot and if it boots execute the android 2.3 upgrade zip from htcdev.com
Let us know if you repair it....

[Q] Urgent help

Hello.
Recently Tried CyanogenMod on my HTC desire.
Found put i had too many issues so i reinstalled a stock RUU Nravo HTC WWE but now my phone is stuck in white screen + logo.
Recovery automaticly bring me to this option too.
Any help :/
Did you change hboot to cm7r2? If yes then you need to flash downgrader it before you run RUU. Check link on my sig. There's a thing for that problem on the troubleshooting guide

I have no idea. I know now that I shouldnt have fiddled with this. I have jailbroken many apple products and I have played with linux operating systems but hell, I have no idea how the android cellphone works.
Ok so here is the issues I have trying to following your guide (thanks for the reply by the way).
My computer cannot detect my phone through USB.
I have no access to my SD, nor do I have an adapter.
I have no ROMs on my SD because I cleared it during reinstallation of SENSE.
The problem accured after I hooked my phone to my PC and reinstalled RUU BRAVO HTC WWE 1.15.405.4
My phone is stuck in White bootscreen no matter what.
Going into recovery simply puts me on white bootscreen too.
Thanks in advance.
Decided to buy a new phone insted.
And this is definitly the last time I fiddle with roms on an android based phone.
Thanks for the help.
Did ya pull the battery out then put back and hold volume down + power? See if can get bootloader
