HTC Desire is Bricked

Hi,
I know there are a lot of other Threads about Bricked Phones but I swear, I've tried everything.
My Phone is S-Off and I had the CM7 Rom on my device.
For a Friend, who wants to buy my phone, I tried the "RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release"
and know i got the black htc screen with the 4 exclamation marks in each corner.
My Phone was original from o2 so I tried the o2 Ruu but that didn't work either.
Also My Device is with the SLCD-Screen.
I also have a Goldcard but the Goldcard seems not very helpful to me.
When I try to flash a Rom with Ruu it tells me the Error 110 on the PC and on my phone appears that

Can Somebody help me?
I tried everything for 2 days know but nothing worked.

Jesus Feckin Christ!
I can either answer this like I do every single day of my life, or I can tell you to use search....
Hmmmm. What to do?
Maybe we can play a little game? Yes thats it.
Clue 1. Alpharev / Revolutionary hboots have write protection.......

OMG Thank you so so much for this brilliant idea.
What do you think have I done the last 2 days?
2 Days of writing this post?
I've tried everything which I could FIND by using Search but nothing helped.
When you can help me, thank you.
Please don't waste my time with upolished posts.

I can help you. I know the answer. I post the answer every day. Did clue 1 not help?
Give a man a fish and he can feed himself for a day. Give a man a logical and methodical approach to resolving problems and he can fix his desire for life.
Now play along
I'm sorry for taking it out on you, but this really is asked EVERY day and its so obvious why it doesnt work...

Command back.
Ok, its early in the morning for me so sorry.
I'm not so experienced like you with the whole development-stuff.
When I change something on my device I read something in threads and try it step by step but i don't really understand what I'm doing like most people.
I understand its annoying to answer the same problems so often but i would appreciate it if you could help me one more time.

Aww you're being so nice. I wanted to give you another clue, but ok...
You have the CM7 R2 hboot. This is too small for a sense rom, the /system partition will not accomodate the /system of a sense rom. Which is why you see the [fail]
Because the hboot is write protected, the RUU couldn't over write it with the stock hboot first.
What you need to do is download the downgrade.img from alpharev and fastboot flash it as a hboot.
Then you can simply run the RUU again.

Thank you so much.
one last question. Do i have to put the downgrade.img on my sd card and start normal or how can i flash is a hboot?

follow the red link in my signature for my guides. There is an adb and fastboot faq. Ignore the adb part as its irrelevant.
This will tell you how to use fastboot. Most people tend to go for using the windows application that is linked in there.

One of those déjà vu threads.

Is the bravo_downgrade.img only 512kb small?
i tried it with the android flasher.
When i plug my phone off the usb its shows my device is know s-on (so good for that).
But the Ruu.exe don't work.
Still stuck on the exclamationmark screen.
Now I still got a Goldcard. To use it, do i have to put the goldcard only in my device and run the ruu.exe again or do I have to do something different?
I got the failure 131 in the Ruu Update-Window

Does anybody know what else i can do?

You just put the goldcard in and RUU. Or use the 2.3.3 from the HTCdev.com as it doesn't need a goldcard
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium

How can i use the 2.3.3 from htcdev.com
Should I run the Unlock Bootloader?
What does I have to do?

You have to fastboot flash the downgrade.img and in fastboot still, run RUU

Has Somebody the Link for the right RUU?
I've treid everything i could find but non of them worked.
I bought my desire in Germany with an O2-Contract. Originally is was a froyo rom.

Still hanging on the exclamation mark screen.
After i plug the usb off it shows:
Braveo PVt4 Ship S-On
HBoot-0.93.001
Micro-051d
Touch Panel-Synt0101
Radio-5-11-05-27

RUU
does this mean the falsh of the downgrad.img didn't work?

Well the fact that you're S-ON would in fact suggest that it has worked (kinda a d'uuh moment there).. tried different RUU? tried 2.3.3 RUU?
all the advice that one can give to you has already been given. put it into practise.

try different RUU to see which fits to your phone

Just trying is not a good idea here!
Nevertheless, I totally agree with bortak.

can you give me the link of this legendary RUU 2.3.3 ?

[Q] How to Unroot my HTC Desire HD?

Hey,
is it possible to unroot my device, to reverse when I had nothing root(stock settings). Sorry for my bad English.
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA App on ICS 1.4.0

Why do you wanna go back to stock?
For warranty?
How did you root/hack your device? I guess AAHK? You can use that to get back to stock as well.
Otherwise get a fitting RUU for your device and run it.

Yes, for warranty (If my device have an problem).
I root it with AAHK.
Is this really safe and stock or are they files on the device with an root info?

It's safe and there are no traces left.
But trust me You could give your phone back to warranty with all those stuff installed
Had once an issue with my HD2, the guy at the story did not even know how to get into bootloader...he just said: okay, its defective, get your DHD and you'll be fine

Sometimes the store sent devices to the service and than they check these things in the bootloader.
That's why i'm asking.

Sure, its always good to get it back to stock

Is there a stockrom as a zipfile instead of a RUU?
I'd like to revert via SDcard.
(because of an USBbrick / hardwarefailure)

Download the RUU.exe, open it via WinZip or something similar and get the rom.zip out of it.
(Or simply run it till it shows the manual, then get into your temp folder and you'll find the rom.zip there).
Rename it to PD98IMG.zip, push it to the root of your SD and your good to go
DN41

Hi. Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunatly it didn't help me very well yet.
Winzip doesn't seem to be able to open my downloaded RUU files. (neither does winrar)
And if i just execute the exe file i don't see any option to copy it to a temporary folder.

Ok, so do this:
Open explorer here: C:\Users\"YOUR USERNAME"\Appdata\Local\Temp\
Then Run the RUU, it will extract the files to some folder in here, you will see it pop up when opening the RUU (or you run it and simply use search).

download a rom from here http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace
Depends on witch rom you had from the start ,the first 6 are WWE.
This will revert your DHD to stock .
LE:do what DN41 said, i didn't read that you want to unroot from SD !

Thank you very much DN41. (and mitzap) It worked.
When i decide to return my phone for repair i shall unroot it with this (renamed) rom.
First i'm going to look futher for some kind of softwarefix for my usb problem.

You're welcome
DN41

I have been reading on here quite a bit to work out how to unroot the DHD. I realise that running the correct RUU is likely to be the way to go... what about S-Off? As far as I have read, running the RUU does not put your phone back to S-On.
Please could you let me know if this is the right order to do things in:
Downgrade to 1.32 (by running the 1.32 WWE ruu) - Would it be possible to run 1.32 WWE ruu regardless of what my CID currently is? Also, would this give me WWE/unbranded CID?
Temp root with visionary.
Use the S-Off tool to get to S-On. If wanting to return to carrier branded, then you would also be able to change the CID to whichever Carrier ID wanted.
Install RUU of choice, be that branded or non-branded.
I think that's it... if someone could confirm if I've got this right or let me know if I've gone for overkill?
Cheers!!

well done.
since hboot 1.09.0099 is included I have the strong feeling this is the last update for the wildfire s

Will post on a faster download site once it eventually gets here. No issues with losing S-OFF?

I'm assuming too that we'll lose bootloader unlock and have to go through the whole update/unlock process again. Am I wrong?

can u plz check if it contains arabic language ?

Nope, I've updated and still s-off.
Although in the bootloader it says locked, it still says ship S-off.
Radio seems to give me better signal.
I can't get this rom rooted though. Apps requiring superuser are denied.

So I've got:

HBOOT-1.08.0099

How do I update? Do I just install the RUU, and then follow the HTCDev bootloader unlock and then root the phone again or do I need to take any other steps?

ERROR 140 while updating
Hello guys,
i want to update my wfs to get the latest hboot and radio.
i have an unlocked bootloader and hboot 1.08.099 and i'm running the latest cm7.2 version by alquez.
my procedure was to relock my bootloader via fastboot oem lock (to avoid the 155 error) and then i run the ruu.exe (my mobile was in fastboot usb mode all the time and yes i cleared cache etc)
at first everything seems to be fine but when the exe update the signature (or sth like that) the setup aborted with the message "RUU Fehler 140 Bootloader Version" (i'm german.. so fehler <> error)
Does anyone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks
NQNH

I updated to last ruu and loader says now locked but i have installed super user(rezo provided) and everything is working so i will leave as it is now(even if it says bootlader locked)

Hi NQNH
I had the exact same error. This is what you need:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21408713#post21408713
It seems that the "PG7610000_Marvel_hboot_1.08.0099_20111216.exe" you probably had to install to unlock your phone made a change to a version number in your misc.img.
Mine was something like 2.17.0.0 instead of 1.08.0099.
After the RUU failed you will be able to see something like "Main version is older" on the phone's screen (if you get rid of the HTC logo)

can someone extract the radio from that ruu?

Don't worry, that is your stock recovery, but to be able to access it and reboot the device, press POWER button and volume up, try it at the same time, that combination will open your stock recovery.
If it doesn't work, press volume up, keep it pressed and then POWER button, if not keep POWER button pressed and press volume up, one of this combinations will do the trick

You are not really telling us where it gives you the triangle phone screen, is it when you enter the recovery, is it when you full reboot the phone, is it when you enter the bootloader.

Locked and new, stop tinkering because it should fall under 100% warranty !
If it's out of warranty you can unlock the bootloader and flash another rom or re-install the current stock one (if it's available)

Did you get the phone in a locked, or unlocked state?
If locked, did you use Sunshine or a HTC unlock (the former option costs $$ and I would't recommend fabricated keys as they can break the device).
T-Mobile DE - a german version of the phone, or US version with German settings?
To reboot in RUU, you'll need to do so through ADB, while connected to a computer.
In order to run RUU, you actually have to re-lock the bootloader if it's unlocked. You also need to disable SuperCID, if it is enabled.
Do you have any more details? I was going to suggest a website that @graffixnyc used to keep updates on, but I don't see the list of files there anymore.
I bought mine three years ago and I feel bad that your outcome is like this.
