Hi
Today I tried to install Android Cm7 on it from following procedure
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566955
I copied RHODIMG.nbh and CM7***.zip file on the root of the SD and restarted with volume down key which installed successfully but now Im having a black screen after every restart.
Currently the device starts with HTC screen but then goes black. I can also get into boot loader mode by restarting with volume key down but now it does not detect any RHODIMG.nbh file even if its in root of the SD card. Now I cant even install back Energy rom.
Before energy rom, I did installed Hard SPL successfully and its still there too.
Please help
OKay, so I have tried everything I could and I think the boot loader is corrupted?
I tried to load different RHODIMG.NBH files from the root of the SD card, Energy, Deepshining and then Stock ROM too but for all the boot loader says 'No Image File'
Can anybody please guide me here??
Try using the USB installer. So long as you can get to the bootloader screen, you can flash via USB or SD. If SD isn't working, try USB.

Yes, I just did it, I installed WMDC as I was on Win7, when I went in bootloader and connected the phone via USB it was detected as HTC USB Hub, then I Flashed the Energy ROM and its working fine now.
Strange dont know why it was not detected the .nbh file in the sd card..!!
Though for a moment I thought I bricked my mobile but I still want to take another chance to install Android in it
Glad to hear you're back up and running.

I was rooted and running a 2.2 rom and wanted to install the damagecontrol 3.2 rom, which, as I understand it, requires NAND to be unlocked. I downloaded Simple Root and tried to unlock NAND.
When I turn on the phone I get stuck in a boot loop.
I try the recovery console. It takes a few minutes to load PC36diag.zip, the update for NAND which I already installed.
When I say no to the update and no to restarting I get into the menu, but if I try RECOVERY it loads the phone with the exclamation point, but I am unable to connect using the adb batch file I have always used before.
Also, when I try HBOOT USB the drivers aren't able to be installed. The device is read as "Android 1.0".
Can someone please help me?

Bootloop means you need to do a full wipe.
First thing's first, delete the PC36IMG.zip file from your SD. Then when you get the image of a phone with an exclamation mark, hold down the power and volume up key to get into recovery.
As for the last bit, I'm sorta' confused what you're problem is.
Part of my problem is that I can't delete the file from the SD card. Can't get into the OS and can't turn on USB.
Something similar happened to me. For me, instead of booting Damage Control, I switched it to Fresh and booted Fresh v3.0 and it worked and booted. Then I unlocked the Nand and made a nandroid. Then whipped everything 2 times and booted DC and it worked fine after that.

You can get in to usb and put fresh on there by going to recovery mode and selecting one of the options that says USB, i can't remember the exact wording.
Added: I just checked it's called "USB-MS toggle"

When you get the exclamation mark screen, hold down the Power and Volume Down key. Once in recovery mode, select the USB-MS Toggle feature, this mounts your SD card yto your PC. You should then be able to access the root of your SD card via the Removable Disk icon on your computer.
It wouldn't let me load USB from the console/whatever either... Another weird driver issue.
But after several more hard battery pulls I let it try again to boot and it showed me the "HTC, quietly brilliant" boot screen, which was different that what it had before.. I let it load and now I'm in android, but it says my SD card is removed.
Is this a part of the process necessary to unlock NAND?... Do I have NAND?

Check and see if your USB connection is in Charge Only or Disk Drive mode.

no. You make your nand back up when you are in recovery mode and you select nand back up and it backs up everything. You'll need to follow through with the rest of the Nand unlocking instructions.
Did you download and follow the steps of the flash_image and mtg-eng.img etc etc...? Then the rest of the steps?
That's the first thing I tried to do when android loaded. It's not even an option. It says I removed my SD card.
I restarted, denied the update to get through to recovery, and I still can't connect with adb -it shows "Unknown Device" in the device manager.

are you connected with charge only? try hot sync (you need to install the program, which include drivers. this is on the htc website)
Mine worked for hot sync but not charge only
Looks like you may need to run through this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
I've been reading that post.
When I select fastboot, it gives me other options.
bootloader
reboot
reboot bootloader
powerdown
If I select bootloader it takes me back to the main menu, if I select reboot, I get back to android and still do not have access to my SD card, so I can't get out of the debugging rom, or whatever it is.
I put another SD card in, so I don't have to wait on the update.zip to be read every single reboot, but that's all it did.
Am I doing something wrong?
Don't know then... sorry. You can try starting over from the beginning?
Best of luck.
FML.
Someone? I'm totally stuck.
And my phone says the the charger isn't delivering sufficient voltage... and I'm down to 8%.
HEEELLLPPP
its always an good idea to have a micro sd to sd adapter
After 3 locations, I found a Sprint store that actually existed... had them copy an update.zip that I brought on a flash drive onto my micro sd card. I tried booting into recovery and it didn't do the update. They suggested another store that does repairs, so I went to my 5th store, where I just dropped off my phone, hoping they'll reflash it fore me. I'm expecting a call back.
What a wonderful birthday this is turning out to be... lol. FML
UPDATE: I called them and they said the phone needs to be exchanged... but I don't know how they're going to react to it having the recovery/debug version of android on it.
Does anyone have ANY advice?
Just tell them to put in a fully charged battery for you. Then when you get it home try the Simple Root Guide you tried at first. This time post your issue (if you have any others) in that thread and myself or Jiqqa will help. Make sure before starting that guide that you have .NET framework and HTC sync installed on your computer. But you should be able to root phone and then be able to flash custom ROM after that.
Hi, Last night i rooted the phone, partitioned the sd card, installed radio .08 and so on.
Rom were working fine but i just wanted unroot cuz of the warranty issue. Heres to the problem. When i connect the phone it all looks fine. The computer finds it and i can mount the sd card and so on. But when i try to boot with the official ruu it just loses the connection to the computer and stops with the "black" "htc" logo on the screen.
Here's what i've tried: Reformated my SD card with fat32, nandroid back to stock rom (the one you get directly after rooting) and i've tried degrading my radio image to the one .04. have also reinstalled htc sync twice and get same problem...is the phone bricked in any way? im pretty noobish at this so it was foolish of me to try it on my own i know.
I can still flash roms i looks like, just not go back to unrooted
I've done the unrooting process before and it worked like a charm. why not now?
the ROm was Leedroid 1.4 if it helps
Pop onto the #modaco irc channel on chat.freenote.net
This sounds sortable.
Sounds like its just a matter of flashing the stock rom directly from the SD card....Feel free to pm me whilst in the channel
Have you try to boot your phone into Hboot/Fastboot before you execute the RUU?
After you have run the RUU file and it asks you to connect the phone, go to your windows temp folder (start->run->%temp%)
Sort folders by date and open the most recent, inside there you will see a file called rom.zip (about 120 megs) copy that to your SD card and rename it to PB99IMG.zip.
Turn the phone off and reboot holding the vol down key, enter recovery and it should scan the SD card and offer to flash the PB99IMG.zip.
Job done!!
This will also downgrade the radio images, so beware it takes a couple of boots.
I unrooted today and had the same problem, its a simple solution. When you run it the first time it gets stuck on the black screen, dont do anything with the phone, leave it connected, exit the ruu, then run it again and it'll work
I had something like this too. Just close flashing software in windows when it says connection error, unplug usb, plug it back and start firmware flash in windows again.
edit:i was too late.. lol
edit edit: i did unplug, but looks like its not needed
My solution is more elegant though

Chances are you've already gotten an answer, but I need to get my 10 noob posts so here goes.
Always start with a good backup. At least apps you want to get back. Backups usually are stored online or somewhere the ROMwipe can't get to it so just run the backup however you want.
If you don't have CWM flashed already, do so.
Connect your phone to your computer and enable USB transfer mode.
Make sure you have the USB driver for your phone installed on your computer.
Access your phone's primary SD card (usually the first one that shows up in My Computer).
Move the rebelrom .zip file directly onto that drive (the root) without extracting it or renaming it.
Properly deactivate USB mode and disconnect from computer.
Restart the phone in CWM recovery mode (hold the volume up and power key to turn on, then continue holding volume up until the splash screen comes up).
Start with "ROMwipe". Don't worry, your backup will be fine, and you will remain in recovery the whole time.
"Install .zip from SD card" next.
See where I'm going with this?

Problem is:
Few months ago i rooted my unbranded DHD, installed CyanogenMod 7.1, it worked perfectly fine for a couple of months, but a few days ago, my phone was on but did not respond anymore. I tried to reboot it, but it got stuck at the white screen with the HTC logo (sometimes it bootloops, other times it freezes)
I rebooted the phone with the volume down key pressed, so it would give me that menu,
scrolled down to "Recovery", i get the recovery menu from ClockworkMod (5.0.2.0), but then my volume key does not work ! i can not do whipe or anything else, the phone freezes.
I mounted the SD card in my PC, cleared it, put a rom in root of SD card and call the rom "PD98IMG.zip" and put the SD card back in my phone. I start the phone with the volume key down pressed, i get that
white screen with the menu and it then finds the .zip file.
It then reads the image, parses the image and then tries to load "NV.img" on which my phone freezes again.
I tried CyanogenMod and LeeDroid, and a stock rom. They all do the same thing, as written above.
When i connect my phone to my PC, my pc tries to install the driver, but gives me an error, saying the device is not known. I have installed both HTC Sync and the SDK. Tried it when i had only HTC Sync
installed, did not work either.
I also tried a RUU (.exe file) but this program tells me there is no device connected...
My phone is over a year old, so i have no warenty anymore, that's why i rooted it.
Phone is in S-Off Mode
HBoot-0.85.2007
Radio-26.03.02.26_M
OS version 1.72.405.3
Tried to boot with SIM and SD, just the SIM, just the SD and with none of them. Outcome is still the same.
i've read a few things about abd and such, never used it before, so please, speak noob
ok...
got it sorta running, but, whatever rom i install, it comes back like its chinese, it wont see my SIM and im in some sort of set up. I can do the setup, but when i come at the Wifi menu where i have to choose my wifi, it freezes..
Tried stock rom, CyanogenMod 7.1 (on which it ran perfectly before it crashed) and LeeDroid.. they all come to this..
Now when i try to load a rom (cyanogenmod 7.1 again) and go into hboot then choose recovery, the phone shows an image of a phone with a red triangle with a ! in it.. and wont install..
Delete PD98IMG from sd card. Reboot the phone as you did before (volume down + power button) plug the usb to pc (It should now read fastboot usb) and try to run an official RUU.exe
Just to see if it works with the stock rom.
The red triangle could be the stock recovery. From stock recovery you cannot flash any custom rom. From red triangle screen push volume up and power button. It should go through a menu where you can try to do a factory reset, just in case...
Ignore the wifi setting, if this is causing freeze. You can set it later.
Here is a list of official RUUs. Download the appropriate and run (colud be the 12 from the top). I know you tried already but just an idea.
Also, you may need the driver. Uninstall HtcSync and download and install this Driver. Better to reboot pc after you installed the right driver.
Good luck!
Thank you vey much !
Downloading a RUU at the moment. I also wanted to download that driver, but that is not a correct link. (the link says http:/ /htcdriver.3.00.700.exe which ofcourse wont let me download anything.
Could you please give the correct link ? For now i'll try the SDK one, downloading that RUU is going to take another hour, i'll be trying this RUU when its downloaded.
Thnx again !

So after accidently wiping everything I had on both SD and Internal memory trying to make a custom rom work, I was stuck with a phone that only has TWRP on it, basically. Now after I've been through this guide TO THE LETTER: http://www.droidviews.com/install-stock-android-marshmallow-lg-g3-d855-using-twrp-recovery/ I can see it installed an OS but I cant seem to get my phone to load it! SO then I tried entering recovery mode and getting back to default, it didn't change anything, so I tried installing Zoe rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/zoe-rom-v1-0-mm-6-0-stock-v30a-d855-t3402087) and It STILL ONLY LOADS TWRP even though the installation seemed to be successful!
So what do I need to do? Just flat out delete TWRP? or what? Pleas advise as I'm desperate. If needs be, redirect me to how to just completely reinstall everything from scratch to 6.0 or 7.0 (preferably). I was on 4.x.x for ages and I just wanted to update, instead destroyed my phone. Sigh.
UPDATE: Another thing I've tried is to flash it with KDZ file from the PC. I can see the phone, I can transfer files to it, but windows DOES NOT recognize in the device manage so when I tried to use the flash tool, after clicking "Start" it pops a new window which gets to 60% and then stops saying the phone is not connected to the pc.

I just got over something like this this morning. First, you need to ensure you have the LG Universal drivers installed for your phone. Get them here.
Next, reboot your machine.
After this, I made sure the PC recognized all 3 modes of my phone, TWRP mode (boot to TWRP, connect), Download Mode (boot to download mode with cable) and, at least in my case, the flashing lights mode (shows up as QHUD Bulk or something).
After that, I ran the KDZ restore program successfully.
Good luck and let me know how it goes.
