I was trying to Hboot different table and some radio and I accidently brick my phone.
When I try to turn it on it just vibrates for a second and nothing shows up just blank black screen. Help ME Please !
I have managed to show the info in the fastboot commander. I can flash radio h-boot spl and recovery here. I can shut down phone from this software and it shows charging light as well.
But still blank on boot. Can any body help me to make it usable
Sorry to say, but I think you bricked it. You can't flash GSM radios and partition tables to the CDMA Desire.
Is there any way that I can unbrick it ?

Hmm... i dont know when its CDMA.but i think this may fix it. Okay you need to download fastboot commander from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193915
then you need to download official htc desire RUU it may work for CDMA too (i think) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193915 download the "HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade"
Allright now you got the downloads. You also need Java and the HTC driver if you dont got that. Pull battery out of your phone and set it back again. Connect your phone to your pc (dont turn it on you shold just hear that sound when windows found your device) open fastboot commander program on your pc and go to the tab "boot, sys and userdata" mark all the stuff you can and press remove or something like that
Your phone is only a black screen when you turn it on, dont worry. Open the RUU program now and follow the instructions to revert to android 2.3. I hope that helpe if not let me know what didnt worked and i may help you a little more.

Not if its really bricked, such as a radio brick, which you more than likely have.
You can try flashign a CDMA RUU like suggested above, but keep your fingers crossed.
I'm pretty sure even flashing a different SPL from alpharev would've done a great job of bricking it...
Yes it probably would

Before doing anything that u guyz have suggested would this thing help that i got? This is RUU_Bravo_C_Froyo_USCC_WWE_2.11.573.5_Radio_2.15.00.11.16_release_168495_signed.exe which is sized 171mb. I dounloaded it. What is this thing anyway. Could anyone explain ?
I got it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947961
its an RUU (Rom Upgrade Utility) to upgrade the rom.
What was a guy who doesnt know what an RUU is, doing flashing Hboots?
will u tell me if it has to do anything to make my phone work ?
Like we said earlier, you can try. We can't tell you if it will work o not as your phone may be bricked. However, it should give you failure codes, which may give us more information.
Theres no harm in trying. It probably is bricked anyway.
Good thing about Alpharev hboot is that they lock it so that one doesnt accidentally flash a wrong hboot.. See if you can get into hboot mode (Vol- Power)...If it's still black, use the PB99IMG.zip method of flashing RUUs.. I wont elaborate. They are a dozen threads on it do/
Don't flash an ruu now.
I'm not sure how to fix your problem but I don't believe it's bricked. It is sooo hard to brick these things. I have thought a million times that mine was bricked, just be patient search forums (not just xda) and read a lot. That's the beautiful thing about the internet. You are bound to find many people that have gone through what you are and have fixed it. I will look a little for you but i'm not on that much so I don't know how much help that can be. If your search doesn't provide useful information try changing your keywords. I'll post again later tonight with what I have found if you haven't figured it out already. Good luck.
This RUU is giving me error 110 Cant open file when it is on 60-70 %. I downloaded it forn HTC support the other time and againg the same error. Then I tried to do another RUU from alltel but this gave me error that this was not supported. Help !
Did you flash RUU via computer or via SD card?

S-OFF your Desire using Revolutionary.

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

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.

Hi guys,
This is my first thread here in XDA, so, forgive me by a possible mistake.
I recently bought a HOX, the seller said that is the international version.
I'm in 4.0.3, with software version 1.29.707.11 (already checked for updates, but phone says its up to date)
So, sometimes when i turn my wifi on, he doesn't connect in my network (already saved), i go to wifi settings, put to scan, and, aparently, the phone don't scan the networks and doesn't found my network too.
Obviously, im on the range of the network, and don't have that factory problem with bad wifi signal.
And, sometimes too, phone takes a lot of time to get carrier signal, so i turn on plane mode, then turn off, and finally get carrier signal.
My question is: is this normal? What can i try to fix it? (Thinked on a factory reset)
I don't tried anything yet.
If anyone could help, i'll appreciate and if the thread is on the wrong place, please move it

I am VERY noob in HTC tools, can you say me what exactly is this "RUU", and where i can get it?
Its basically, a factory reset right? What is the difference from normal FR to this RUU tool?

The difference is that it will reflash the ROM from scratch, it's the first thing HTC do when you take your phone for repair. It's very safe (when flashed with decent remaining battery) and very thorough.
Check the Shipped ROM sticky in the development section.
I am searching about the Rom Update Utility, but i'm not finding a good tutorial to follow, explaining the whole process.
If anyone could help me in the process :laugh:
Edit:
Thanks again Pope! I'll look in dev section
You just have to charge the phone, put the phone in fastboot mode (hold down the volume down key when switching on the phone, then navigate from there), plug phone into Windows PC and double click RUU.
You may want to do an "adb backup" (you'll have search for this) beforehand, flash RUU, test and then restore.

I'm not finding the correct RUU file for the One X, can you help me? Or just show me a place to search... (Some links here at job are blocked --') Basically finding the correct RUU file i'll do the rest without problem...
This "restore" you mean in the end, its the factory reset in the phone? Or another restore?
Don't need a backup, i got the phone 2 days ago hehehe
My HOX is totally clean.
No unlocked bootloader, no root.
This will not be a problem doing the flash with the stock RUU right?

No, that's perfect, you don't need anything other than stock, and it will remain stock.

Ben sorry for tons of questions hehe
I'm reading a tutorial, and on it said that i need my CID number, in order to download the correct RUU file for the correct region of my HOX. How can i know if this RUU you posted is the correct for my HOX?
I've tried to get my CID number (downloaded the fastboot flasher tool) but when i put the cid command he returns: CID > None lol
I Know that my HOX is from Shangai (has a SH in serial number) and got my MID number.
So, i just need to know which file i need to download, the right one of course hehehe
If i will need the CID to know, i'll ask for the files for fastboot commands (i don't found them)
If not, just confirm the link you posted ealier if its the correct RUU for my case.
PS.: This link posted is only for premium users, and i don't have a premium acc, can you provide in another mirror?
You can't flash the wrong RUU, the phone won't let you.
You don't need your CID as you are not unlocked, knowing that you are 1.29.707.x is enough. It's the right RUU.
I'm sure you don't need me to hold your hand whilst you use google to find that file somewhere else. The sticky dev thread I previously mentioned will likely have a ton of mirrors for the file.
So.. i'll look fot the file in other places.
Today, i've connected in my wifi network, and the phone says there's an update...
It's the same update announced days ago, but in my case with a different update number...
Phone has been upgraded to ICS 4.0.4 and Sense 4.1.
If the problems persist, i will flash the RUU anyway, but, because of this update, nothing changes right? The RUU file you posted still valid for my HOX?
Not any more, you've updated your hboot, so you'll need an updated RUU (you can't install on older hboot, packaged with an older RUU).
You're lucky:

DHD A9191 - lovely piece of alu cast
I searched this forum to get me into rooting, then running for 2 weeks Blackout 4.0.4.
Since I couldn't use Skype, and people did not understand me (voice meteallic), decided to switch back.

Then I was able to run those RUU...
RUU finalised but with errors, red triangle, again reverted to 2.1
another RUU... apparently 2.3.5 went ok. boot. and...
I CANNOT USE TOUCHSCREEN ANYMORE
sorry, im close to tears.
I can boot to HBOOT 2.00.0027
System boot to this Sense3.0 Andro 2.3.5
but I cannot swing unlock ring.
please help.
What to load up now to make my touch screen work again?
It was old phone no guaranty.
I've got another Desire S, two other unformated sd cards... if this helps.
And you guys.

If you're still S-OFF, I believe you just need to flash a custom recovery and then flash a stock ROM. You didn't need to unroot to go back to the stock ROM. Instructions on how to flash a custom recovery are in the "need help" link in my signature. Look in the PDF linked from post #7 there.

Now I see I ve found this PDF before but, there is not much about unrooting.
i understand you are trying to tell me to use this guide to flash stock rom with adb (or custom recovery)?
Will I be able to get OTA back. and get the original 2.3.5?
Im worring that touchsreen stopped working because some drivers (digitizer) had been wrong. How to make sure which rom is stock? WWE? but...
Oh.. got chest pain again.
I feel small and alone here, in this phone rooting bushiness I let myself in.

No, flash a custom recovery. Instructions for that start at the bottom of page 9 of the guide. Then download the stock 2.3.5 rooted and flash it normally from recovery.
RUUs are all stock. Digitizer is hardware. Don't worry about the drivers.
No i'm not that guy.
but im scared as sh**.
"before i mess up my phone" ...thats what Im afraid of.
...just noted Teichopsia had deleted his reply. Do not know why?
I hate to ask this, but do you now good original unbranded rom for DHD A9191?
driphter and shipped roms are down.
so first step is to get custom recovery
then upload stock img-zip
then install it with custom recovery?
what if this will not help on the touch screen problem?
I was trying to get help at similar forum, on a similar problem, but this ROM that fixed them did not helped me. Still no touch. Either from phone or that forum..

Fastboot is not the same as ADB. Instructions for flashing something with Fastboot are very clearly documented in the PDF that glevitan and I both told you to read. Unfortunately, I believe you lost S-OFF when you ran that RUU (since your HBOOT version changed), which means you lost Fastboot ability. You're now beyond my understanding; you're going to need to wait for glevitan to show up with his wisdom and hope that he can help you.

Hi,
after i have bought my new HTC One mini 2 i would like to go with my Desire back to the beginning.
I searched here and also on other sites for the best and simplest way. Most sites say to use the RUU.exe but i couldn't find it here http://www.htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads.
But than i found this post here on XDA that tells me not to use RUUs.
So what is the best way for me??
I want the stock ROM with no tweaks no a2sd, just the way it was when i bought it. I don't care weather there is root/s-off or not. I wanted to use my nandroid backup but it was made with an other Recovery and i don't know how to get back to it.
So in the best case i have my desire just the way it was after i rooted it. (with the stock rom from HTC but with recovery and root permission

I want the stock ROM with no tweaks no a2sd, just the way it was when i bought it. I don't care weather there is root/s-off or not. I wanted to use my nandroid backup but it was made with an other Recovery and i don't know how to get back to it.
So in the best case i have my desire just the way it was after i rooted it. (with the stock rom from HTC but with recovery and root permission

To get complete stock then u need to use an ruu. So if ur s-on, relock ur bootloader
fastboot oem lock
Then run the ruu.
S-off, then make sure ur on stock hboot then flash the Alpharev downgrade.img then run the ruu. To get the correct ruu, google "shipped roms" then find ur device (bravo).
Or if u want it stock but rooted then look at development thread for stock roms and flash it in recovery.
If u want to restore ur old nandroid then id say u cant because u made the nandroid with different recovery. So im guessing that ur using 4ext recovery now? And im guessing when u rooted for the first time u used CWM recovery? So if thats the case, flash CWM recovery then restore nandroid.

Your descriptions are conflicting.
If you want it the way you bought it (fully stock, S-ON etc), then RUU is the proper, easiest way.
If you restore any kind of nandroid backup, then it will be rooted with whatever A2SD it had at the time, i.e. this is the way you bought it...

I thought these commands only work on Nexus devices? I've never needed to use them on the Desire anyway.
Even if the desire is S-ON, the 2.3.3 GB RUU should run without issue.
@HandyBesitzer
There's a whole troubleshooting guide stickied the top of Q&A dedicated to all of this. Follow it to the letter for your particular situation. Find and flash the 2.3.3 GB RUU
I always thought that when ur htc dev unlocked bootloader, then u need to relock the bootloader. I always had s-off so never tried it with the desire but with s-on with htc desire s and sensation u need to relock the bootloader first or ruu wont run, just thought it would be the same with the desire.

Guess so, depends on how / if OP unlocked the bootloader
- If it's dev unlocked, then those commands will likely apply then
- If he's S-ON, he could still have rooted with original unrevoked method for instance. I don't believe those fastboot commands wouldn't apply, RUU would work straight over the top
- If it's revoluationary / alpharev S-OFF, downgrader instructions as you said

Forgot bout the old unrevoked method
Black screen
Hi, I have a Desire. I used Alpharev to get S-On to install a RUU. The RUU has been installed, when it restarted the screen remained black. The phone starts,the buttons are lighted but the screen is black.
It seems to be a software problem.
Can anyone help me?

You flashed the wrong RUU
You flashed an SLCD RUU which is meant for an AMOLED device, or the other way around. In other words, it's incompatible with your screen type, which is why your screen remains black.
Look at bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A, it covers this. You will need to use the 2.3.3 GB RUU as outlined above.

wasn't 2.2.2 the latest Version for Desire??
first to clear what i did to get the s-off, root,...
I used unrevoke to get s-off, so HTC does not know what i did to my phone
I also installed a new hboot a while ago, but i think i went back to the old. SO do i need the downgrade there??
About my first recovery it was Amonra, because cwm did not work for me first. Now i have the 4ext. It's simply the best
Also it is possible i updated my radio i don't know but i think i did it. Is that a problem??
I'm in my fastboot now and see this:
--- AlphaRev ---
Bravo PVT4 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
Microp-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNW0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
http://alpharev.nl/
Do i download bravo_stock or bravo_downgrade??

So the RUU flashed successfully, it boots into the stock ROM, but you can't navigate the screen? Do the hardware buttons work? Does it react at all?
Still recommend to use the 2.3.3 GB RUU. Even guy above with one post managed to follow the given instructions first time, find it and flash it successfully

No, neither of those. I believe those are Froyo RUUs...try / start here instead
Forget about the radio, should flash with the RUU.
Are you actually following the instructions here and the troubleshooting guide as advised to flash the RUU...?
Thanks for the link. But the download does not start for me. I only get the License and i cannot confirme it.
About the trouble shotting. it starts with problems when the smartphone has this black screen with !, but i even did not get this screen. I'll read the whole thread here again, and try to get the download working.
The disclaimer tell me that i cannot send sms or mms and you recomment this version to me????

Try another browser.
Or try other links in the rest of the internet, it's a big place. That's not the only place to download it from.

The troubleshooting thread does not start with black screen problems.
The whole thread goes through every possibility, you find the one which applies to your situation.
The black screen is not your situation, so read the rest of the thread...

No, the disclaimer says you may not be able to send sms or mms....nowhere does it say cannot....It is just a terms and conditions disclaimer, that's it, so you can't sue HTC in the small chance that some things don't work...
I recommend it every time yes, as I have recommended it 100s of times here...just like to the guy above. It worked straight away. Evidence right here in this very thread, and has worked virutally every time for many other people if you look in Q&A...somewhere you are not looking hard enough, and / or not following instructions.
