I would try redownloading the ROM (from PC), place on SD card, go into recovery, full wipe from recovery, flash zip file from recovery.

Did you try and apply an update to a rooted phone????

Well, if you're on bootloader screen it usually doesnt recognize your phone.
Last time I flashed a RUU i used fastboot mode. Start your phone with the "back key" held. Then start the RUU.
If you get something like a Model ID Error then, you will have to create a Goldcard to apply the RUU.
CAUTION: Before you flash any RUU, check if it's compatible with your SLCD or AMOLED Device. SLCD Devices are incompatible with certain RUUs, flashing a wrong one results in a semi-brick (display not working, but ROM functioning).

You must be aware of having the correct RUU.then try to enter fastboot, when it is loaded, plug in your cable, you must see that it turns to 'hboot usb plug'. If it does so, you can flash the original RUU, if it is the right one

Hmm...Somehow the newest post was hidden from me..Glad you solved it.

Glad i could help you, i hate bricked desires, had a similar problem once...

[Q] Bricked Desire plz help

hello everybody...
a friend of mine just gave me his desire, he bought a used one and tried something to update its rom, but now its bricked and its in my hand to be fixed.
the problem is that it doesnt boot at all... i mean when i press power button to make it on, the htc logo appears and starts again and again with a little VIBRATE. so i can say that its in a boot loop.
ok when i press vol down and power button it goes into the boot loader, where it is written that its S-ON with boot loader .93, and when i click on recovery it goes into the boot loop like i wrote above.
i also have a Desire HTC and it is rooted using unrevoked and i m running an HD rom over it. its a complete packaged phone...
i have a knowlege how to root and etc. but in this bricked desire case i dont know what to do. coz it never happened to me... i also searched the forum for a solution, didnt got any.
please help me in this matter... ask me question and please give me a solution,/

i think it is working, but it says while installing that from image 2.33..... to imrage 2.29.... and then it tries to push everyting i mean tryies to run its setup and within 2 min it says Customer ID error, try someother package...
edit 1: i itried your way also by copying that zip file and then pasting it on the sd card... i sucessfully loaded in fastboot but i think the same error as above,,, CID error...
now what can i do?
edit 2: Have also tried unrevoked in fastboot mode... power on fastboot usb and then starting unrevoked, but unrevoked keep saying to connect device and enable usb debugging mode. nothing happens
thanks Hassan

1. Download this:
http://www.multiupload.com/LEJCW182AH
2. Follow this guide to get the ZIP out of the RUU and flash off the SD card:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10509780&postcount=102
Assuming the phone is unbranded it'll work, or at least get the phone booting again. If it fails flashing the ROM for any reason then it's a branded phone and you'll need to speak to the seller to find out where it's from

but going into vol down and menu and then pressing recovery also enables the boot loop with htc white screen and vibrate on everyboot

I think that easier way not loosing the root would be flash once again recovery were you using clockwork recovery? Beside if the phone is branded you will need a goldcard
so i think you should instal adb http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
then you need to recovery image which you can find here http://www.android-hilfe.de/root-ha...a-recovery-ra-desire-v2-0-1-27-11-2010-a.html
put recovery on c drive sdk folder and open cmd on your windows and put a command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

U can try to put ur phone on bootloader, then plug it to ur pc and run the RUU from windows..It should restore all, after that u can root it with unrevoked and do what u want..

U cant flash the recovery on S-ON desire..maybe worth a try to run unrevoked again and see if its work, but i dont believe

i have written clearly that the phone is not going in recovery nor it is booting in to some sort of rom or recovery that i flash new recovery.but if you tell me or direct me to some tutotial to flash recovery in adb mode, may be i can unbrick my device. but c i cant boot into recovery. i can just boot into fastboot.

you dont need recovery to flash recovery fastboot is the only thing you need

ya boot in fastboot, plug it to ur pc and run the ruu from windows.
if ur desire is S-ON there is NO way to flash a recovery...just unrevoked can flash the recovery if u are S-ON, but if ur phone doesn't boot, unrevoked will not work i think

With ur guide he can run the ruu without stay connected to the pc..but he can flash it directly from the pc (if phone usb work), as is more easy (at least in my opinion)..the phone in fastboot mode is not a problem, as the ruu handle that case

Thats kinnda what I did I think....And the problem is that my phone is stuck on htc logo screen. So now I would be happy just to get back to working phone.

Well I need ruu for europe cuz im theere. And yes,I can get into hboot. From there I tryed recovery.

I'm from europe too and the right ruu for mine phone is the RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27
And i think you have to use that one because of the hboot. the ruu you are using have a old hboot version and i dont think the ruu will downgrade hboot..
But if you can enter fasboot use that to flash a recovery and wipe youre phone then install a custome room on it.

Before installing RUU, make sura that you have installed Alpharev stock hboot

Unless the computer/phone has ESP, yes, both adb and fastboot need a cable connection!
If you dont want to do it over cable, find the corresponding PB99IMG and follow the PB99IMG method

Use the attached file.
Put it in the root of your card (not in any folder)
Reboot by pressing Vol- and Power button.
When asked to update, confirm with Vol -
This should give you a working recovery. Then you can flash any rom as you usually do, and at that instance, your bootloops will be solved too.
After this, if you still wish to return Hboot to Stock (without losing S-Off), you can use this PB99IMG. <Make sure you rename it to the same name as the previous file after deleting the former.

Why do you think you need to downgrade your hboot? What benefits do you expect to gain from doing so?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

as rootsu said, theres no benefits
but if you really want to then head over to the alpharev site and download the hboot downgrader, flash that either by fastboot or the pb99img.zip method, then run a froyo ruu

I already tried using the hboot downgrader but it didn't work.
I also tried unrevoked...

you cant do that, but you can go to http://revolutionary.io and flash a custom hboot, then you can decide if you want to:
1) Flash the downgrader.img and run a Froyo RUU to remain stock OR
2) Flash custom recovery (and root or flash custom ROM)

[NEED HELP] Flashing Firmware!!!

Goooood Morning everybody
I have the following Problem: My Desire doesn't boot, so I want to flash a new Firmware (or an older, but an original ). When I use the RUU.exe it works until it says Reboot into Bootloader, because then it turns off, vibrates seven times and thats all. So I get an Error 171 after "Waiting for Bootloader". So i tried to flash it with an PB99IMG.zip but it just works until it says "Checking PB99IMG.zip". After that it goes back into the normal HBOOT menu.
I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP!!!
Thanks in Advance, mrlollog!

First, do you have boitloader drivers installed? If not you need to install htc sync prior to run RUU.
Also, which RUU did you run? Not all af them are compatible with your device.

RUU depends on what model and where you bought it which I can't tell you because you bought it. 2.3 RUU is compatible with all versions so it should work.
And about htc sync it installs drivers depending on state of your phone (powered on, bootloader, fastboot) it has all of them and it will install them when you connect the phone in these states. The ones you don't have are bootloader drivers and they are critical for RUU to complete. Just install htc sync and run 2.3 upgrade, when the phone reboots PC will install proper drivers for bootloader. You have an instalation guide inside 2.3 upgrade pack.

RUU depends on what model and where you bought it which I can't tell you because you bought it. 2.3 RUU is compatible with all versions so it should work.
And about htc sync it installs drivers depending on state of your phone (powered on, bootloader, fastboot) it has all of them and it will install them when you connect the phone in these states. The ones you don't have are bootloader drivers and they are critical for RUU to complete. Just install htc sync and run 2.3 upgrade, when the phone reboots PC will install proper drivers for bootloader. You have an instalation guide inside 2.3 upgrade pack.

Ok, now my Upgrade starts but ends directly after starting with the signature error 132
Do you know anything about how to fix this?

How did you try, .zip on sd method or unpacking and running RUU from the package on your PC?

Running the RUU ends with the Signature Error and when I try to flash it via PB99IMG.zip it stucks at "Checking PB99IMG.zip" or returns to the normal HBOOT menu.
BTW: I have HBOOT 0.80.0000

What did you use for PB99IMG.zip?
Did you extract rom.zip from RUU?
And again which drivers do you have and where have you find 2.3 upgrade?

I extracted the first RUU I listed (Gingerbread) and have installed the Fastboot Drivers and HTCSync.
: ...and android sdk of course...

You don't need both drivers maybe they're making problems.
And again: PB99IMG.zip, what did you use, do you know that you have to extract rom.zip FROM RUU.exe?

yes that's what i did, i extracted the rom.zip from the first gingebread RUU i posted.
The driver aren't in conflict because i tried with both single drivers and with both at the same time.

Then just try again and again with RUU.
But since you have an old hboot (that should be overrun by RUU) try with goldcard and WWE RUU, you may have luck. I don't know what else to say to you .

Now I talked to one mate that had some problems like your, he put his phone in freezer for some time and after that RUU done it's job.
