Hi guys.
i've just bought a HTC Desire HD from eBay but the phone is in a boot loop.
it turn on then after 10 sec it restart ir selft.
I asked to the seller if he had ever rooted or mount a custom rom and he said no.
i didn't do anything to the phone. i watched some guide over the internet to try to root and installa a rom like this video
w w w.youtube.com/watch?v=zY8TFZ2Owk0
but can't turn on the USB Debugging so don't know how to proceed.
Any idea how i can fix this problem?? Help me please
All the info you need is on here and in the manual for AAHK.
E-bays caveat emptor isnt just there to look pretty [everybody lies] when selling/buying.
Does it not work if you take the battery out then put it back, hold the volume down + power to get to recovery?
select fastboot and flash the original RUU
theres plenty of info re. this and solutions
ok thanks for the answer, i've tried as you said.
i can go in to the boot loader then i had these 5 options
Fastboot,recovery,factory reset,simlock ang image crc
i went in the fast boot and had these 4 options
Bootloader,reboot,reboor bootloader and power down
once i go into fast boot i dont know hot to flash and install the original ruu
can you link me a guide that could work for my issue??
thanks again for the answer
try recovery/ fact reset, may solve it -- failing that get AAHK and try a root and install a new rom
you will need to do your own research as my post count dont allow links and AAHK links are bannable on here - gooogle is your friend
as an aside there is a sdcard in is there ??????

What u need is to flash a RUU...however the cases I have seen of that is due to a corrupted emmc chip...which means that u have to send it to service centre to have the MOBO replaced....look for the official RUU for your phone.
Factory reset won´t do anything if the software is defective....

Hi there !
I would like to S-OFF or unlock bootloader of my Orange FR branded WFS. HTCdevs method does note seem to work, ROM or bootloader is too wreid and not supported by official orange hboot updater from htcdevs. After some tricks (goldcard I guess), I succeed in installing "Europe hboot" from htcdevs, but it doesn't help in any way : fastboot oem command returns an error 1, command error . Hboot might be too old to know these commands.
By searching on XDA, I found a tool called temproot that allows me to root the phone until I reboot it.
my HBoot version is 0.90.0000 and radio 7.53.39.03M.
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL.
HTC drivers, andro SDK, Java, debuging mode,... are probably ok. I use Windows 7x64 and Linux Mint.
I think I said everything. If you want more details or explainations, I'll do my best to answer preciselly, even if I'm a noob .
Thanks !

The unlockable European HBOOT is version 1.08.0099, so I take this to mean that you successfully updated to a generic EU HBOOT (0.90.0000) which is not unlockable, but can be updated to 1.08.0099. Thus,

So you need to go back to htcdev and update your HBOOT to the unlockable one. When you do, HBOOT will show:

Thanks for (very) fast answer and making me realize that I successfuly downgraded my HBoot (that's what I was searching to do).
I believed that it should allow me to upgrade with unlockable HBoot too, but I forgot to say that when I try to update HBOOT the way htcdev tells using their HTC_EU-1.09.0099 / ORANGE_FR-1.09.0099 / Any 1.08.0099 HBoot, I get an error 191, my ROM is NOT up to date. I have no ROM update possible with my f****** provider custom ROM. Is it possible to change this ROM to the official HTC ROM (using my temp rooting and adb shell or I don't know what), so that I can get last updates, flash HBoot with HTC_EU-1.09.0099 and get custom ROM (such as CM7.2) ?
Or I am thinking wrong on the way it works (probably the case : I learned everything alone) ?
Edit : I believe that this would have worked, if the given link weren't dead.......... Uploading website are all closed. That's a shame.
Thank you,
KennyG9
Try this:
1. Run the RUU...exe for updating the HBOOT again but don't try to update. Instead, find the temporary folder it created to extract the files needed for the install. It will look something like C:\Users\[LoginName]\AppData\Local\Temp\{82B23FCD-D5D0-45CA-A3A2-5350D3926551}.
2. In one of the subfolders, find rom_02.zip from and copy it to another location on your hard drive. Rename it PG76IMG.zip. You can close the RUU wizard now.
3. Move PG76IMG.zip to the root folder of your Goldcard.
4. Boot the phone into HBOOT (turn it off, pull the battery for 5 sec. and replace it, hold down volume and press the power button). Once in HBOOT, the phone will find PG76IMG.zip and try to install it. Follow the directions on the screen.
5. Do a factory reset and reboot.

It worked finally . You're so beautiful !
For interested people, you can get rom_01.zip and rom_02.zip. It corresponds to PG7610000_Marvel_hboot_1.09.0099_0209_R.exe file. (Orange FR 2.14.73.1 PG7610000)

software s-off????
After spending 3 days trying to upgrade my hboot so i could unlock my bootloader, i somehow ended up with s-off! here are the steps i followed.
1) try updates from htcdev - didnt work
2) made goldcard, tried updates - didnt work
3) gained temp root using adb and zergrush, worked
4) hex edited the rom version number - didnt work
5) placed rom_2 on sd card - worked, sort of, updated the radio, but not the bootloader, "cannot rollback hboot"
6) placed rom_1 on sd card -worked, updated the radio
7) went into hboot to try to flash rom_2 again, voila! s-off!!!!
dont ask me if this is a way to s-off devices without xtc clip, all i know is it is what has worked for me, so i thought i would share.

No matter what I try to do, I can't get past this menu.
WHAT I DID
Plugged phone into computer, typed the command, "fastboot oem lock". I haven't done anything else, but I can't get it unlocked no matter what I try. If I try to fastboot a rom it won't allow me
. I've tried two different RUU's to get back to stock, but everytime it says
Code:
Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
Press <POWER> to reboot
My phone was previously rooted to this, I still have Paranoid Android and Clockwork on it, I just can't access them. I can't access anything but the HBOOT/FASTBOOT menu. I've been trying for days to fix this, but I'm really at a standstill. I have no idea how I can fix this and I just want to use my phone again. Can someone please try to help me :crying:
search for the link for a stock ruu. follow the instructions for installing it. I think you'll end up pulling the boot image from the stock ruu, renaming it pg32img.zip and putting it on your sd card in the main area not a folder. let the boot loader pick it up and you're back in business.
You locked it, so it isnt going to boot anything not signed by HTC. Try running "fastboot oem unlock" to unlock it again. If that works, you should be able to boot whatever you have installed. Flashing an RUU wont work, unless you can find one for the 6.xx update, the bootloader wont let you flash anything with a lower main version than your current one, which can only be 6.xx because of your radio version.

I've tried fastbook oem unlock a bunch of times. It says it worked on my computer but the phone will still say relocked. And alright, at least you narrowed down what version I have to look for.
EDIT:
I've tried using this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=27463473
All it does is load the PG32IMG.zip, checks it, then goes back to the HBOOT screen.
Did you get the HTC token again that you used to unlock the first time? If not, not go back into htcdev.com and follow all of directions. After you have it all in fastboot type in
Fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin

yes I tried that I even tried factory reset and all it comes up with is a phone and a red triangle with a exclamation point and then it goes back to the the boot menu what should I do...Is there any files I can download to make it start up again
I have the same problem, its Locked with S-on, stuck in the bootloader, and my pc won't recognize it when its plugged in, only "unknown device". But when plugged in, it does say "fastboot usb" or "hboot usb plug", so it does recognize when its plugged in. I've tried 2 RUU signed and flashed files, the phone reads it but just goes back to hboot. Any ideas?

I mean back to stock without facing issues with bootloader unlocked
Or if I can upgrade my bootloader
My concern is to flash Rom
The mistake u made causing all this mess is I choose relocked option from ahkit
But it does not shows any on screen message to select relock
However my observation is its only a single thing I am missing
After relock I tried to unlock but err failed message
Can fastboot flash recovery either
And additionally can't proceed with anything other then receiving error signature failed
Some one please direct me towards right direction.....

I appreciate the support!
I have been trying so many things and getting very much confused with Hboot, Fastboot.
Honestly been on both screen and do not see much difference.
If you do not mind suggesting steps and I will try them out and will share what I experience.
Tks

Then you're not in fastboot. You get to fastboot by going to hboot (reboot while holding power and volume-down), navigating to "fastboot" with the power buttons, and selecting it with the power button. Also, again, the OP seems to imply that your bootloader isn't unlocked. If it is, hboot would say so at the top.

FASTBOOT USB
the phone is stuck on the green htc logo with a white background
my computer no longer shows a folder for the phone when i plug in usb (im certain that i made a mistake by trying a factory reset using the hboot screen after this occured) which would undoubtedly remove usb debugging. and set to default charge only setting
i can use vol dwn + pwr to go into bootloader screen (obviously)
I tried using 2 different RUU's (both labeled HTC Android Phone ROM Utility 1.0.3.2011) because that seemed to help others
It progresses to install ruu. Phone shows black background and htc logo in grey but goes no further, just hangs like that forever, when i unplug usb at that point the grey logo disappears and it shows that ruu failed! in orange colors
the rom update utility shows error 155:unknown error
then : The ROM Utility cannot update your android phone
Please get the correct ROM update utility and try again
the htcdev site only shows one utility for htc desire hd (RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread))
i also tried using (RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed)
typing adb devices in cmd prompt shows no devices listed using sdk
the ruu had previously listed image version 2.47.502.7
it updated to image version 2.52.0.0 before i used htcdev to unlock it
now it tries to upgrade from 2.52 to 3.12.405.1 but won't
i followed the steps in this thread
"[how to]unlock inspire build 3.20.502.52 with htcdev in preparation to use AAHK" (you have to google it cus forum wont allow me to post url)
i didnt notice the red warning about this post being outdated OR that its a method for a different build It was 3am! and i was tired
it seemed to work fine just after the unlock in step 2
but i started having issues after i finished step 3
also if flashing an image file onto the SD card is the only route then how is that possible if my pc doesnt have access to the files
it only makes a sound when i plug it in
yes im a noob
please help
i believe that this is fixable since i read a comment that any htcdev unlocked phone is fixable...fingers crossed
is this a soft brick?
how do fix this so i can root this phone
and what method is (safest) best for rooting?
Your bootloader is already unlocked. Flash a custom recovery through fastboot and flash a ROM from there.

I have looked around on here and on other forums but am unable to find anything with the OS-6.12.401.4 to help solve the problem all i can tell it has probably tried/has been updated to Android Marshmallow. other then that i am stuck as to where to go from there.
Any help much appreciated
What is wrong with the phone?
"Locked" in bootloader simply means the bootloader is locked, which is the normal stock condition. It doesn't indicate a problem in itself.

Well that information is remarkably vague, to the point of not being useful!

What recovery? How did you try to load it?
If you tried to flash a custom recovery like TWRP, you can't do that with a locked bootloader, by definitions (the very purpose of locking the bootloader).
But don't unlock the bootloader. You can install a complete factory image (RUU) using the following process and files: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64926626&postcount=6
by upgrade i ment do an update sorry.
by recovery i mean recovery as in im guessing the bootloader screen where it says software status modified. i just used the volume keys to go down to it and pressed the power button but the screen just reloaded back onto the software statuts modified screen.
i will have a go at the complete factory image install and post back with what happens although hopefully the phone will be working again.

I see, you mean "boot to recovery" (and in your case, stock recovery). I took "load" to mean you were trying to flash or install something.

So it either sounds like you know what RUU to use (needs to match your CID and version number), or you don't and you are guessing you will find it. Not clear which is the case.
Did you find a solution to this? I have exactly the same issue with my wife's old HTC One M8, which had been left to go flat for over two years. After recharging, it came back on with exactly the same message (I didn't even have to switch it on). It's never been modified in any way, apart from scheduled OTA updates

I gave a solution. But the RUU may not be for the M8 version you have. You have to provide specific device info, for anyone to be able to help you. Lots of versions of the M8, each with different (or no) RUU.
I have not used my HTC one M8 phone for nearly 2 years.

Cool story, bro. But seriously, you didn't ask a question or tell us what you need help with.
I'm guessing it is stuck on the bootloader screen (that you typed out and posted)?
i have the same problem. My HTC One m8 wont boot into android and its stuck in the bootloader. Even if i restart the phone it wont go to android. I have a 6.12.111.4 OS version. Could someone put a 6.12.111.4 os version here, because i want to install it! THANKS
