[SOLVED] No Boot, no ADB, no Recovery, only fastboot :( How to create a Goldcard now?

I'm stuck at a nearly 99% brick I think...
I've got an AMOLED Desire from T-Mobile Germany (still branded), with HBOOT 0.80.0000, rooted via Unrevoked and still S-ON.
The phone gets stuck during the boot process when the provider-splashscreen (or HTC-Logo) is shown at the beginning. Only pulling out the battery will shut the phone down.
The same happens when I try to get into Recovery via HBOOT. The only option is to pull the battery.
If I connect the phone via USB and enter Fastboot it is recognized by the computer with the command "fastboot devices".
I can't use ADB, because I can't access the recovery.
I downloaded the right RUU for my provider/amoled/hboot 0.80.0000 Desire (RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed) and extracted the ROM.zip from the installer. I renamed the file to PB99IMG.zip and manually moved it to the SDcard using my computer.
But, when I enter HBOOT the file is recognized and extracted, but then it fails ...due to an "incorrect CID".
The same happens if I manually execute the RUU....exe under Windows with my phone plugged in via USB. (It's error code 131 in the flash program of the RUU....exe).
A very helpful user (cargo) of a german Android forum (www.android-hilfe.de - link to his posting) assumed that my HBOOT is not correctly displayed and I might have a "newer" one than 0.80.0000
This leaves me quite without any option than to flash HTC RUU 2.29.405.5, which brings HBOOT 0.93.0001...(but I may be able to downgrade again.)
But this flash process is only possible if I have a Goldcard, which I actually don't have at the moment
Is there any way to create a Goldcard for my device in my actual position (only fastboot working, no boot to run the system, no adb working, no recovery access)?
Every howto explaining the goldcard crating process requires either working adb or even a running system for apps like "goldcard helper" or being able to use "terminal emulator"
I would be very very thankful for every bit of help
Maybe there is some way
Thanks in advance guys!

I believe that goldcards are specific to the card and not the phone(read it somewere on here) so it should be possible to make one without using your phone.

As far as I know you need the phone for your goldcard. At least it was said in the tutorial I was following a few months back. You need to connect the phone to get the serial number (through ADB shell) which you will need to hex-reverse and put it on your SD card image.
To be honest, they are more sophisticated methods now (as I read) creating a goldcard, but since unrEVOked, i do not follow that part.
And by the way, why don't you flash the HTC RUU 2.29.405.5? 0.93 HBOOT can be downgraded. But with the latest tools you can S-Off, root & whatever with that HBOOT, too.

I just tried flashing the HTC RUU 2.29.405.5 with the PB99IMG-method.
But I get an error "CID incorrect"
I treid to execute the HTC RUU.exe and I get again error code 131...which means something like "user-ID error"
But I could grab a screenshot of the actual "version" of the RUU...or what is this?
Thanks guys

CID incorrect? Your phone is unbranded or branded? Because I found this:
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDOR ID
Every device contains a short string that identifies the operator who sold it. Because the same device is sold by different operators, this prevents users from flashing a T-Mobile ROM to a device that was sold by Orange, for example. You probably need to Install a HardSPL or CID Unlock your device.

I recommend to find a RUU for your device (e.g Vodafone, T-mobile etc.)
Also:
ERROR [131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the update. The RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the Android phone. Make sure you use the correct RUU to update.

If it's saying wrong CID then it's branded, simple as that

1. Boot your phone in fastboot
2. Run the ruu that matches your phone.
You need a T-mobile branded ruu.
You can look here for one that matches. http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo
I think you can try an UK one, because it is multilingual.
If it is giving you the same errors, then you picked a wrong version.

well it said "incorrect cid" even with a t-mobile branded ruu :/

If you are rooted, then boot into the bootloader and flash a custom rom. Then create a gold card.

Yes, try that too, if you can.
Also use a NOA2SD Rom if you dont have ext partition. Or create one on your PC (if you want to use an A2SD ROM).

How can I flash a Rom using the bootloader?
Simply rename the zipped Image of a custom Rom into "PB99IMG.zip", put in on the SDcard and boot into HBOOT?
Thank you

Yes, if you rooted with unrEVOked. Boot in to recovery (clockworkMOD/AmonRa) wipe all data and flash a CUSTOM rom.
You don't have to rename it, it can be anything as soon as it is .zip

Uhm...flashing a custom rom in general is no problem...but i can't access Recvoery
as described in the initial post of the thread only the bootloader (HBOOT) and fastboot are working.

Yeah, sorry, my bad.
Well you can try to falsh it via PB99IMG.zip, but i won't think it work.
your only hope is finding a working RUU. (at least seems to me, if you can access only fastboot).

Hi all, have same trouble with flashing via PB99IMG, but in my case, the device normally loads the firmware and returned to fastbut. When you try to go to recovery device hangs on the logo. Фfter removing the battery and re-attempt to restart the device, it begins to vibrate 7 times and then freezes on the logo. What do these vibration?

PB99IMG.zip will work as you don't need recovery. Just put it on the root of your SD card and boot into HBOOT. It'll find the file and flash it

did renaming rom to pb99img nd flash via hboot work for you?
i have a similar problem, rather same prob, only fastboot available

To let this thread maintain usefullness for future readers:
The solution was to take a goldcard from a friend and flash the right (matching hboot, provider and version) RUU, by using the PB99IMG method.
By this the phone will be set back to it's delivery state! This will include the Rom, all data in the NAND storage the recovery and everything else, which got modified like getting root access or S-OFF etc.
Troubles were caused by USB-Brick or an error on my old ext3 partition or maybe even corrupt data in my Titanium file-backup I restored a few days before the crash :/
I can't clearly say what is the main cause...maybe it was a combination of all.
If you don't have got any chance of getting another goldcard (yes the goldcard creation does NOT depend on the devices! It can be created with ANY android phone ) you are really screwed.
My advice: Always keep a spare microSD card, equipped with it's goldcard image around!
Because I was not able to find any method to echo the CID (Id of the SDcard) in fastboot.
Greetings
And good luck to all of you having comparable issues

[Q] Stuck on S-Off Screen

Hi, i've been using LeeDroid for a few months now and all has been well, however yesterday my Desire turned itself off and now won't come back on. Each time i try and power it up it freezes at the Alpharev S-Off screen. I went into the menu's with volume down + power, but i can't get into my recovery - it takes me to the same frozen screen as does trying to reboot etc. And i don't think it's being recognized by usb either. So i really don't know what to do now.. is my phone bricked? I was a complete noob before rooting and flashing a custom rom before, so now that i've hit a problem i'm clueless all over again. Any help would be greatly appreciated

can you use fastboot? If so just flash a new recovery and all should be fine... chill out it can be fixed

What would i need for that? That's going into new territory

Can you access recovery? If no can you access bootloader (vol down + power on)

I can get onto the menu with the options 'fastboot, recovery, clear storage and simlock' if that's what you mean? The recovery option takes me back to my frozen alpharev screen, but i can get onto fastboot and after reading around i can get my pc to recognize it from fastboot usb from my pc using cmd.. Am i going the right direction at all? Eek. What i don't get now is the recovery image i'm supposed to use

Use amon_RA ... Download and flash onto ur phone and ur phone should be fixed
Plenty of guides around man, good way of learning fastboot

to use fastboot you need to download several things. Instead of using fastboot with cmd, I'd just recommend using fastboot commander, which does the job for you. In order to use that however, you will need the adb drivers, and Java SDK.
Once you've got all that, simply boot into fastboot, run "fastboot commander.exe", go into the "misc" tab, wipe Recovery, system, cache, boot, and userdata. Once you've done that download recovery, navigate to the "Hboot, radio & Rec" tab on fastboot commander, select recovery, find the recovery.img you just downloaded, and flash it. Once you've done that just boot into recovery and install any ROM you want.

Thanks for the replies guys. I did what you said to do (using fastboot commander), and when trying to boot into recovery to install my ROM it froze again at the alpharev screen. I'm stuck again now. When the files show up as you turn on into fastboot, i'm getting this..

www.alpharev.nl download a HBOOT and flash it through fastboot. Just make sure to check MD5 (you need a MD5 utility AFAIK)

I'm not sure which one is the right one for my ROM, i'm using LeeDroid.. Sorry for all the questions!

For any sense UI ROMs you would use the Sense HBOOT, remember to nandroid backup before you do so! because you might find that you get a bootloop after flashing the HBOOT.
And don't worry about asking questions! it's what we're all here for.
By the way if you don't know what different HBOOTs do: they change the partition sizes for /system /cache and /data. So by using a different HBOOT instead of the stock one you may get more storage for apps etc. if you choose one with a larger /data partition.... if that makes sense

Ok the sense one it is =)
Ah i see! Thanks for explaining cos underneath the nerd in me would have been wondering what it did lol.
Not sure how to get a nandroid done when i can't get into recovery though

I still havn't got anywhere with my problem, if anyone could advise me further i'd really appreciate it, as this is really stressing me out now.
The only screen i can still ever see is a frozen alpharev screen, and i still can't enter recovery. I've cleared everything using fastboot commander and flashed a new recovery which did nothing. Then i took the next advice and flashed a new hboot. The hboot has changed on my hboot menu (vol down + power) but still goes to the frozen alpharev screen when i try to go to recovery or turn the phone on. I then flashed a LeeDroid rom, which came up with an error at the end of it..
"sending 'zip' (173060 KB)... OKAY [ 23.469s]
writing 'zip'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)"
And that's as far as i've got.
Reading further i've been trying to work out how to flash a stock ruu to see if that works. However my phone was a branded Orange UK phone before so there is no ruu for that. So my question is, bearing in mind i can't get into the phone at all, how can i go about downgrading the hboot and installing a htc stock ruu. Can anyone point me to the right files i would need. I really don't know what i'm doing and i think the amount of searching i've been doing is just confusing me further

Hi.
As I can see the only way to restore is using a RUU to go back to stock then root and S-Off the phone again.
First: Preparation.
1. If you have a custom HBOOT (e.g.: 6.93.0001) you need first to flash the HBOOT Downgrader (found on alpharev site), then flash the RUU.
2. You will gonna need a Gold Card if your phone was branded.
Second: Starting
1. Make your Gold Card using someone's else phone (it has to be running Android) - the Gold Card is unique per SD Card, not per phone.
2. Use this tool to make the Gold Card: HERE
3. Guide how to make a Gold Card in Linux: HERE
4. get the latest RUU WWE 2.29.405.5. Extract the PB99IMG.zip file from the RUU: here it is how: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880268 -2nd post.
5. Reboot in bootloader (Volume-Down + Power)
7. Select fastboot
8. Flash the HBOOT Downgrader (don't forget to check the MD5 of the file you have downloaded from alpharev)
9. Extract the PB99IMG.zip and put it on root of SD Card.
10. Reboot in bootloader (scroll to REBOOT and select)
11. It will automatically load the img and ask you if you want to install
12. Check Yes and follow onscreen progress.
13. Wait untill it finnishes
14. I think it will reboot itself, if not scroll down to the Reboot obtion and press Power button to select.

Whatever you do, DO NOT turn off the device manually unless the software tells you to. If something goes wrong, dont switch off phone. Keep the phone on while trying a solution.

Always start with a battery with >50% power (full recommended).

Think i may be the happiest girl in the world today lol i finally got it all fixed. I had a bit of trouble making the goldcard as at first my sd card kept saying it needed to be reformatted after, but after formatting it with SD Formatter program rather than Vista's own, it worked. All the rest went without a hitch. Now just gotta root, s-off and grab my new ROM and this past week can all get forgotten about =)
Thankyou so much to everyone that helped!
Incase anyone does read this far, is the procedure still the same as when i first used it back in April.. from here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084

Hi. Follow these steps and you will be back stock and no S-OFF or ROOT.
First of all get the latest RUU WWE 2.29.405.5. Extract the PB99IMG.zip file from the RUU: here it is how: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880268 -2nd post.
Also make sure you don't have a custom HBOOT (in bootloader the version of HBOOT should look like this if it is custom: 6.93.0001 and at the top should write Alpharev and something else) or you will need first to flash the HBOOT downgrader prior to running the RUU.
You will need to a Gold Card if your phone was branded.
1. Extract the PB99IMG.zip and put it on root of SD Card.
2. Reboot in bootloader (Volume-Down + Power)
3. It will automatically load the img and ask you if you want to install
4. Check Yes and follow onscreen progress.

6. I think it will reboot itself, if not scroll down to the Reboot obtion and press Power button to select.
Follow this guide for Gold Card:
droidzone said:
4. Do I need a Goldcard?
If you have a recent version of the RUU for your Device, available on Shipped Roms, you dont need a goldcard. This is the usual scenario for people who purchased their Desire in Europe, and so have an unbranded Desire. All Branded Desires need a correct branded version of the RUU, and any other RUU including WWE (Worldwide English, or European) RUU will not work for them. Also if an unbranded Desire user wishes to change RUU to a branded version, he will need a Goldcard. This is because all Desires have a particular software tag in the Rom, called the InfoCID. This dictates the Region code. For Eg. An Indian Desire is branded and has InfoCID of HTC__038. When you change a RUU to different region, what you actually do is reset the InfoCID setting. Changing the InfoCID setting requires a Goldcard.
5. What is a Goldcard?
It is a normal MicroUSB card specially prepared in such a way that its Sector 0 (which normally doesnt hold anything useful) is modified, so that it signals to the HTC RUU that the InfoCID may be changed.
6. How do I create a Goldcard?
Just download this tool (Credits and All Rights by [email protected]), and run it.
7. Can you tell me more about Goldcards?
Sure. I've already posted it for you. Read the FAQs in this thread.

Can you turn phone off? If not take out the battery and reboot into recovery and restore nandroid backup if you made one. No need to revert to stock you can just go back to your previous good ROM.

Well... When I go to the recovery mode i got a red triangle... and cannot install any zip file, just update.zip.

try unrooting with RUU

Where I can find these RUU to unroot my phone?
And how I choose the right RUU to use?

http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo All* RUU's available are here, you should match the RUU as best you can to your network or region. If your phone is unbranded try the latest WWE RUU.
*I think
EDIT: didn't see any Orange RUU's there (Just OTA updates). I'm not really the biggest expert/ fan of unrooting/ using RUU's. Lol someone else get in on this.

Yep! You are right there's no Orange RUU.
And I tried those RUU:
- RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.10.405.2_R_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed
- RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121865
- RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.1_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121684
- RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704
- RUU_Bravo_Vodafone_FR_1.21.163.2_Radio_32.37.00.32U_4.06.00.16_2_release_126985_signed
Until now none of them has worked. I got always the same Error 131, costumer ID error.
I also tried the OTA_Bravrange_CH-FR_2.22.71.2-1.19.72.3_P_release8xcr7nx2a68060l7, rename the file to update.zip and install in recovery mode, but it didn't work.
I will keep trying those RUU... But it doesn't seems to work...
What else can i do??

emm.. you could try extracting the rom.zip and renaming it to PB99IMG.zip and placing it in the root of your sdcard.. but I'd get some more advice first, unrooting & using RUUs isn't exactly my specialty.
Get the latest WWE RUU (you'll need to find out which one this is I don't know)
To get the rom.zip (would post the guide but I can't find it)
1. run the RUU and don't click next, just leave it on the first screen (put it to the side somewhere since it's always on top and will get annoying).
2. Go to start and click "run", or press the windows key and "R". In the dialog box type in "%temp%" (without quote).
3. sort using date (if you hit the little down arror, and select "Today" it makes your job a lot easier), and one of the temp folders will contain all the android stuff, and the file you are looking for is called rom.zip
4. grab the file and put it somewhere where you can remember, rename to PB99IMG.zip (make sure you don't name it PB99IMG.zip.zip since windows does that sometimes for some reason)
5. Put in the root of your sdcard, and boot into bootloader. You will be prompted to install.
But again before you do this get someone elses opinion on this. I don't want to be responsible if something goes wrong.

Thanks for helping bortak!
In the end, i just found my Goldcard, put it in my mobile and used the last WWE RUU.
And everything is fine now!
Thanks again man!

So it's back to normal?
And for your USB connection error I'm guessing you weren't in fastboot.
Turn off the phone, hold BACK and POWER, then run the RUU with the phone plugged in.

No, nothing back to normal, I always was in fastboot, and when it says: reboot to bootloader, then the screen get black and nothing ..then ERROR [171]

look at my guide and using a RUU without usb

I tried and I get a message that passes very quickly, and I can not create GC.
I am in this situation [2]ADVANCED BOOT PROBLEMS S-ON

you don't need to with the 2.3 update, are you sure you're doing this right?

Yes, and with the 2.3 update I juste have a .cab, not a rom.zip
EDIT: Sorry, I haven't seen the good directory

I placed the rom.zip in the root of my SD, and I renamed in PB99IMG.zip, I then placed the SD in the Desire and VOLDOWN + POWER ... and nothing

Okay I have absolutely no idea what on earth you're doing to your phone, so before you break it:
Download this
Extract the rom.zip and rename to PB99IMG.zip
put it on the root of your sd-card (NOT in any folders)
poweroff, hold VOLUME DOWN & POWER
when it asks to update, select yes.

After the bootloader, I have the fast message that the phone did not found a file or a wrong file

Well, this is weird, really don't see why it doesn't work..
You can try one more thing, make a goldcard (use this to get CID [copy without commas, spaces. Just letters/numbers], then follow this tutorial, and skip the part where they get the CID using the phone)
Then download this PB99IMG.zip and try it with that.

....Nothing, always the same quick message.

and you tried running the RUU from the PC in fastboot mode? I dunno, there's nothing else you can really try... if PB99IMG doesn't work and RUU doesn't work there are no other options...
Backup your sd-card, format it, then put the PB99IMG.zip on it, then try it one last time.. otherwise I dunno send it to HTC

Nothing works, so i will try to find a friend who had a Desire to help me doing a GC , now I have a Brick

I just said how to make a goldcard without a phone.. use the program to get the CID and then continue the tutorial without the phone (use an sd adapter)
Don't know whether it'll do you any good though..
By the way are you using the original cable when running the RUU?? sometimes it doesn't work if it's not.
