Hi had all different roms on my DHD and settled on Ice cold sandwich which it has been running for a few months now, earlier on today I noticed that it had gone off and only the backlight was on, So I restarted it and it started loading the screen up but then just went into a loop.
So i pulled the battery and went into recovery and reloaded the ICS rom, but know it just vibrates 5 times and shows the splash screen and goes off with just the backlight on again.
I can get into fastboot but when i press the button for recovery it does the same I've tried every pd98img I could find and it says wrong image after I try and load them.
And when I connect it to the pc it can't be recognised by htcsync or thru any adb commands, and windows tried to load a driver called Q_USB-DLOAD or something similar then loads a qualcom usb driver but adb commands still won't recognise it, been looking all bnight for an answer getting desperate.
Thanx in advance Michael
Put it in fast boot and plug into PC. Run your stock ruu from PC. It will install the stock ROM. Then when you can get into ROM enable USB debugging and use aahk option menu to install recovery. You should be able to enter recovery and wipe everything except SD and install whatever ROM.

Hi, thanks for the reply the link for that ruu is dead,and i can't get the device recognised in windows to run anything tried every driver going,
If anyone can point me in the direction of the right pd98.img I will try to load that again the one i found had the modelid: PD9812000 where as my device says modelid: PD9810000 so thats prob be the reason that it said wrong image and wouldn't load it.
Thanks.Michael
Ruu will run with boot loader in any state so no need to re lock it. It seems a peice of hardware failure is the issue here. Try removing SD card and see if it will enter recovery. If not it may just have died.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe if you are S-ON you need a locked bootloader in order to flash a stock RUU.

First try a different usb cable.
If that doesn't work try a different PC (Install htc sync)
Your drivers may be messed up somehow.
Here's a working link for the RUU : Link
If you tried all the above and still can't connect to PC, try this:
-Relock Bootloader
-Download the above RUU.
-Run the EXE in windows (as administrator).
-Tick the "I agree box" and click next (just once). Don't continue with any steps.
-Go the temp folder on your PC (you can find it by navigating to: C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Local\Temp )
-search for ROM.ZIP
-Copy it to your desktop. Rename it to PD98IMG.zip and place it in the index of your sdcard (format your card first using fat32. Don't quick format)
-Place your card back into your phone and reboot into bootloader.
-Let it flash automatically.
No makes no difference with sd card removed just shows splash screen vibrates pauses then vibrates 7 times and goes blank
Check the my post above. I've just edited it.
I use to think you had to be s on too to flash an ruu but it makes no difference. I have flashed them both s on and s off. Attn1 has tried to clear this up, but is a common misconception.

I hope it doesn't turn out to be a hardware issue, and that the method above works out for you.

well I followed the instructions and renamed rom.zip to PD98IMG, fast boot ran it and was successful but on reboot it just vibrates 7 times again and sticks on the splash screen, so looks like I'll have to take it into a repair shop down the town, see if they have any luck.

Michael,
If you haven't sent your phone yet, try flashing CWM recovery using this guide..
Then reflash the PD98IMG you created in the previous instructions.
I'm not sure if this will work 100%, but there's no harm in trying!

I think there is a way to flash CWM from SDCard using update.zip but I can't seem to find it anywhere
If you can do it, try that.
Also I have read here that some folks are experiencing the same 7 vibrations. But they haven't found a solution yet. Maybe you can follow that thread and hope someone will come up with something.
Sorry buddy for not being able to help. Good luck :fingers-crossed:
Well thanks again for your help, took it into a local repair shop and he said it was a hardware failure

Was it the board? I searched around for the 7 vibrations and many have said it was a faulty motherboard.

They didn't say what was the fault just that it was hardware related, Only charged me £15 for having a look at it,

Hi guys!
Today I tried to get the rooted desire with Android 2.2 with unrevoked 3.21
Previosly I updated to 2.29.405.2 SW
When I run the unrevoked it (desire) freezed on "waiting for root" step. Desire freezed in boot progress (white screen with HTC logo on it)
I removed battery and inserted it again. But I cant boot it, desire freezes on the same white screen with HTC logo.
I can HBOOT, but when I go to recovery menu my device goes to reboot and freez.
So it seems that unrevoked spoiled my recovery and I do not know hot to fix it.
Please guide me, the working solution will be donated $20
--------------
Radio version: 5.11.05.27.
SPL/hboot version: 0.93.0001.
product: bravo.
mid: pb9920000.
security: on.
build-mode: ship.
Device model is not SAPPHIRE - flash old/new disabled.
This device does not have s-off nor eng hboot.

Thanks!
Flash a stock RUU and try again, you can get 2.29.405.2 from my signature. Remember to use a gold card if you had to in the past
How can I flash the RUU without access to recovery?
You should flash it via fastboot.
Hold the back button and turn on your phone to enter FASTBOOT, then connect your phone to the pc with the usb cable and then run the ruu.

Did it as you said, result is the same
After the successful flash procedure thru RUU device went to reboot and freezed at the same white screen state.
Recovery is still unavailable to get into.
Now I will try to get the logged data thru Android SDK.
This thing is really mess me up =( I'm phoneless.
You, guys, are the one and only hope.
I have installed SDK, but I cant see anything in adb logcat but "waiting for device", thogh my device is conneted via fastboot usb.
Any clue?
I had that same issue, and it turns out it was a problem with the earlier version of clockworkmod (2.5.0.1) that had that issue, where freezing occurred at the HTC splash screen.
Try unrevoked again, with the 2.5.0.7 image here:
http://koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.0.7-bravo.img
Make sure you select the image when you start unrevoked.
It might fail a few times (freezing at splash), but if it does, just pull the battery and keep trying....eventually it'll manage to go through.
Good luck =)

Latty, how can I run unrevoked with a desired image if I cant boot the phone to get it recognized by unrevoked?
you have to start the flasher without the phone being connected, then you should be able to select the image (top left of window).

It still is a driver issue.
Start from scratch..
Remove all HTC Drivers
Reboot
DC from internet
Connect phone in two modes-Android, Fastboot
It should get recognized but drivers shouldnt be installed and you should be prompted for driver location. If you arent prompted, get Device Manager, uninstall the driver which recognized the device.
Now install Unrevoked drivers as per guide.
Phone should be recognized..

Ok, thanks will do it now.
But one more question, should it be recognized from hboot usb mode with "Android Bootloader interface" driver, or from fastboot mode?
Cant confirm that without my phone..
But, I believe drivers would recognize it in both..And seperate drivers too..
A small tip..If you have dual boot, try Unrevoked in another OS in which you havent installed HTC. Should work

Faced with problems
1) I uninstalled HTC Drivers.
2) plugged phone and deleted Bootloader interface device then Boot Interface device.
3) rebooted
4) disconnected from internet
5) plugged and powered device and got Bootloader Interface driver installed without a single promt!!! And Boot interface as well.
So I had no chance to manually set the path to the drivers. And unrevoked still doesnt see the device =(
It turns out that I should try another OS???
PS and the key point, should it be recognized in hboot mode or unrevoked only works with booted to OS devices only?
Not really..But that's the easy way out..
Difficult to show you what exactly to delete..
Mostly these are driver clashes..When you uninstall the driver you should tick the option to delete the driver from system.
Try again and you know you've succeeded when it doesnt find any driver installed, and asks you for the location, when you can choose the unrevoked drivers..
Hm, I cant find any options prompting to delete driver from the system... But I will look into more carefully.
ADDED
Found it, trying now.
Tried, was promted to specify the path to the drivers, installed again and with no luck =( Unrevoked doesnt see the device.
I will try it tomorrow on another PC and with another OS.
Thanks for help, I really appreciate this, and I hope we will find a solution.
PS. Is this problem called USB brick?
Hi, today a have tried to root my htc desire using revoked 2 method. I was unable to install usb drivers. And now i cant even mount desire as hard drive. Computer still reports that device is unknown. I tried different usb ports, 2 different cabels, windows xp and seven. Before everything worked fine. Do you thing it is possible, that i damaged phone, when i plug it out just disconnecting cable?
Which version of unrEVOked did you try? I seems like a driver issue as you have to install the modified Hboot drivers for unrEVOked in a certain way before unrEVOked will work. If you attempted root with unrEVOked 3.21, did you follow the steps mentioned in thi thread?:

I used this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788044
and I stuck at 3. point... On your phone, you will have to select HBOOT USB at that menu by pressing volume down four times, then power. Wait until the screen flashes through an “SD Checking” message before pressing buttons; otherwise, the phone will ignore keypresses.
and after that i am unable to connect desire to pc... no way...seems like something happend with usb driver in phone or i dont know...just i ve tried 3 computers for now and every reports same when I connect usb, that device is unknown

To tell you the truth, with unrEVOked 3.21, you must install the modified HBOOT drivers for it to work, otherwise it will not work at all.
Please try following this guide as it is definately requied. I asked you above if you had tried going through it, you mentioned that you had only tried using the guide in the first link, but you definately need to have the modified HBOOT drivers installed to proceed.

Hmm... yes i see what you mean. Unrevoked is fussy regarding drivers. Try the following:
1) Uninstall HTC Sync completely, the HTC Driver Setup, and HTC BMP Driver if present.
2) Reboot and reinstall the HTC Sync software (latest version).
3) Now uninstall HTC Sync Alone. Keep other two (HTC Driver Setup and HTC BMP Driver) installed.
4) Reboot your PC again.
Note: do not connect phone to PC at all and make sure the phone is switched off.
5) Switch your phone to the Bootloader screen. Connect the phone via USB and it should show Fastboot USB.
6) Windows will show the device detection dialog box - at this point, stop Windows from getting the driver from Windows Update, and manually choose the location of the driver as the folder where Unrevoked driver is present.
7) After this is done, diconnect phone again.
8) Go through the unrEVOked guide and connect the phone when advised to.
If this fails, then try unrEVOked 3.22 (in my sig below) and see how that goes and although you have mentioned that you have tried 3 different PC's, you may have to consider trying it on a different OS platform, such as Linux.

Try downloading the Android SDK: installer_r08-windows.exe
Follow the steps in this video to hopefully get the appropriate USB drivers - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N66J6UiN5Pg&feature=player_embedded
EDIT:
With the phone connected, try the following afterwards:
Check to make sure that you have USB Debugging enabled on your phone.
In Device Manager, right-click your Unknown Android device and select 'Update Driver Software'. Browse to the folder (extract the zip to the Desktop) i have attached below and see if it installs them.

I agree... it is clearly an HBOOT driver issue or the phone... Windows (PC host) drivers are seperate. I was just running out of ideas really
The only definate way of knowing if it is the device that is causing this issue is if you were to try it on a non-Windows related OS, like Linux and maybe it would work for you using an Ubuntu Live CD.

Yes, because it is not as fussy with drivers as Windows is - with Windows, they have to be properly removed from its cache. With Linux, the phone should be detected ok (unless the phone is at fault).
Here is a simple guide that you can follow:

So, linux didnt work either, system didnt even recognize that anything was plug in. Even crossed fingers dident help Well only last thing I have to ask, if there is any possibility to recover hboot, restore it somehow. Forexample through recovery menu in hboot loader and some kind of .zip file, that i will put to SD card. If not, well I will have to step out to that freezing weather and walk to orange store for reclamation, which I hope would be positive for me, but something telling me it surely will.
I found something about usb unbrick here on xda forum, but is only for root phones
well i found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9056719&postcount=15 i think it could work, just i dont know a way how to discover my CID number..to modify mtd0.img file
ok, i did everything step by step using rageagainstthecage tutorial, but nothing happend at all.
If anyone could help...
Are you able to get into Fastboot?
I suppose running your stock RUU in Hboot won't make a difference then... how about trying the PB99IMG method, which involves renaming the extracted rom.zip file to PB99IMG.zip from your stock RUU, placing this to the root of your SD card and then letting it run from Fastboot mode. This would restore your stock Hboot. You could also try AlphaRev's modified 0.93 HBOOT with S-OFF?
All,
I have a big problem. When I try to start my phone I get the black screen with google and the unlocked padloack, after which the screen goes dark and nothing happens anymore.
What I did before this are two things. I had been mukking around with the screen resolution (I had it set at 240 and 280, as some apps did not show up in the market) also downloaded LCD density to solve the market issue.
I then rebooted the device and entered CWM to do a backup which as far as I knew succeeded. unfortunately after rebooting, see the above.
I have tried a couple of reboots, tried restoring the nandroid (the above was the only one I had). that didn't work, so tried to connect to the PC to load a new ICS rom (original 4.0.4 by google), unfortunately my device can not go into USB mode in CMW (it comes up with UMS lunfile missing....)
so I am woring in circles. can't start the device to download a rom, can't open USM to load a ROM to start the device again.....
any help would be appriciated
thanks
Patrick
hey
flash a new ROM via fastboot then, there are enough guides
-Syn
Edit: Alternatively, flash the stock Google ROM via GNex toolkit and go from scratch.
as mentioned, I can't get a rom on the phone so that I can flash it.
I can't start the phone to donwload one, and can't connect it to usb to get one on the storage....
sorry, you mentioned fastboot.... not USB.
so connect it to usb cable. I then entered fastboot devices, no number came up, as was also the case with ADB. thinkin I might not have the correct USB drivers for my windows machine. any idea where to get teh correct one?

To flash stock images the files are on your PC, not the phone.
If you can get the phone to boot into fastboot (via vol up + vol dn + power) and get your PC to recognize it you're good to go.
thats the issue. pc cannot recognize the phone, so cannot get any files from the PC to the phone (ie. cannot get a rom file to the phone...)

Either directly from Samsung or download the GNex Toolkit (You might want to use it anyways to flash the stock image), the drivers come with it.
After you installed the drivers and have you phone plugged in, go to the device manager to check if it is connected properly.

For the drivers, I would recommend you remove all old drivers and install these. If you don't know how to install them, or are having issues, look here.

I had a similar issue with regard to my PC recognizing the drivers. I googled around and found that people were having success with installing the PdaNet drivers, so maybe you can try that too. I had installed the Android SDK as well as the PdaNet drivers, and I eventually got mine to work.
I would probably follow Efrant's links first though - if that doesn't work for you, then maybe you can try PdaNet drivers and/or installing the SDK.
Good luck.
Why not just do a factory reset from within recovery?
¢ £®0π π€XU$ |||
the factory reset didn't help, the phone just wouldn't go past the black lockscreen. So in the end I used the galaxy nexus toolkit. installed the drivers for the PC, was able to go through fastboot and push files and flash a new rom.
Al is now solved, just need to do a lot of work to bring the phone back to where it was and make a backup asap.
thansk all for the help!

Good to hear you got it.
Anyone got any idea why this might be happening?
One remark in the Revolution HD ROM thread suggested starting again from scratch (re-locking) - I hope that's excessive...
Do you think it's because of the amount of data on my SD? or perhaps I should remove a file it's getting caught up on?
[Fixed]
Either by unplugging the AC charger, or deleting a bundle of large, non-flashable .zip files on my SD card.
just had the same prob and thought i had bricked it...did a google and found your post unplugged it from the wall charger and it carried on loading...phew!

USB Powered problem?
Looks like the problem is not FIXED for me. I'm still stuck at the HBOOT checking SD card update screen while attempting to root the device. I just got the phone today and followed all instructions to successfully unlock the bootloader. Now this thing is driving me crazy. I read on another thread that the USB charging might contribute to this problem, but I really don't know how to fix this. The SD storage is at default state. I only copied the SuperSU zip file while following the instructions. Please help.
PS: I noticed that the phone is not fully charged. It is somewhere below 50% power. Could this be the case?
Do you flash the custom recovery after successfully unlock the bootloader ?
I couldn't even get into FASTBOOT to type in the necessary commands. It's just stuck there at HBOOT Checking SD Update...Unplugging and replugging the USB cable got me in with FASTBOOT USB, but then the FLASH RECOVERY IMG command prompt execution just got stuck at waiting for device. So no recovery whatsoever at this stage.

Try reinstall HTC Sync for the drivers perhaps!?

Yes. I used those to unlock the bootloader. And if HTC Sync is the problem, I wouldn't be surprised. It doesn't detect the phone when it is plugged in . Even the installation was troublesome. I had to set to Windows XP compatibility to install it on Win8 CP 64bit
LordGMLP said:

So you do have "My Htc" under Android USB Devices when checking the Device Manager in your PC, maybe uninstall and reinstall HTC Sync will help ?
Uhm no. I don't have anything that's called My HTC or Android and the like in my device manager . Don't know why but I got through the bootloader unlocking process by following the HTCDev instructions
Then download the Htc Sync and install it as it will install the required driver. You can uninstall the htc sync but leave the driver.
Give it a try and see how it goes.
Uninstalled and reinstalled HTC Sync a dozen times, still no luck. I highly suspect the drivers are incompatible with Windows 8 x64 at the moment. Like I said, the installation requires WinXP compatibility mode, otherwise the installer gave me the 'administration privileges' error, even though it was 'run as administrator' already . HTC Sync itself didn't detect my phone at all when it was plugged in. Better wait for HTC Sync Manager then
I just updated the HTC sync from the link above and the installation went smoothly. The different is I'm on Windows 8 32 bit. I remember that Htc Sync is working fine for my other laptop which was on windows 8 x64 but unable to test it now as I reverted to windows 7.
Strange. The link you provided clearly said the latest version was 3.2.20. But when I pressed download, the exe file said 3.2.10? Perhaps they forgot to update their download server? Damn. I had high hope with the One X. But looks like I'll stick with the iPhone a bit longer, until HTC sorts things out.
Hello my dear xda community,
today my zenfone 2 ze551ml 2,3ghz 4gb WW just died.
heres the story:
i plugged it in to charge, then i unplugged it for about 10 minutes and plugged it in again but it didnt charge.
so i tried to reboot and then strange bootloops occured. after a few tries i managed to boot again. after the next reboot it got stuck in bootloop completely.
next i tried to boot into fastboot. sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt. when i want to boot into recovery a dead blinking bot appears and i cannot enter the options.
also sometimes my fastboot shows the serialnumber "0123456789abcdef" and sometimes it shows it correct. another thing is that when im in fastboot mode my pc does not recognize my phone.. no connection sound nothing. not on windows (yes drivers are installed) and not on linux.
only thing i managed was to establish a connection when i restored my bootloader with xfstk downloader. (did not change a thing)
so now when i boot there are 3 things that can happen:
1. dead bot blinking
2. asus boot screen (stuck)
3. bootloop
im having this problem for about 6 hours now and i have no further ideas how to possibly reflash stock firmware without being able to use fastboot (i can enter it but pc wont recognize) and without being able to properly start recovery mode (dead bot BLINKING)
yes my phone was rooted
and no i did not do any updates it just happened
EDIT: forgot to tell you.. when all this started i was able to boot a few times into my os (stock os just debloated) but was not able to charge or connect to pc. also when my phone is turned off and i connect it via usb to the charger or pc, the phone all of a sudden tries to boot
thanks in advance
cheers

hard bricked my phone recently and have the same 123456etc serial. This happened when I flashed boot.img without doing Androidboot.img first. It was a long recovery process,but I did get it recovered; however, I don't think I can fast boot from the bootloader anymore. If you want details for that route I can give them. Basically just search for hard brick. I wouldn't recommend it unless you're desperate. My phone is up and rooted again tho, so I'm happy.

i tried flashing an os image via xfstk downloader but it failed probably due to the lack of proper files.

What I did was found a raw image that was supposed to flash the whole phone. With Asus flash tool. You need the x.14 version. I couldn't get it to flash my phone but I could see it repartitioning . I pulled the cable after that. Don't reboot. Then flash all the .IMG files from the temp folder. After that, it was stock and took some work getting it unlocked then rooted. After that and having twrp I just reloaded my last saved image.

i can only find die x.15 version but i think it should be enough. the problem is that ze2 is not reacting to pc commands when in bootloader.. so i can not operate in with fastboot commands and asus flash tool requires fastboot mode
maybe my last option is to flash my phone via intel phone flash tool which operates via the soc. but i dont have the necessary files. as i remember i would need some flash.xml and image
maybe there is someone who is able to provide files i would need for the intel phone flash tool. i searched but i only could find the flash.xml file for other zenfone models then zenfone 2

When using xfstk did it confirm it was able to write the bootloader? Also, what version of Windows? I have 10 and it took booting the Os into a recovery mode and accepting the drivers even though they weren't signed. In the offset or write settings in xfstk I had five zeroes. I heard someone use 4, but the majority said 5. I used 5. Are you able to see the boot screen as a 4 color box?

OK, I think I've figured it out. Realized my phone was crashing when I went to make a call. RessurectionRemix formatted my SD card and wasn't readable anymore, so frustrated I said f**k it, let's start over.
1) it's 4 zeros, not 5.
You'll notice when you're flashing with xFSTK Downloader it attempts to flash twice. It appears the first flash is for the bootloader, and the second is for OS. It needs to flash both. I could not get it to flash both until I updated the GP Flag Override Value to 0x80000807. Then it went without a hitch.
2) install fastboot and adb with the driver package.
It's on the site here. Once I did that the ASUS Flash tool did its thing. For those wondering if it's doing something or not - the answer is, if the phone looks like it's not doing anything - it's not doing anything. After I installed adb and fastboot, along with the drivers, it took about 5 minutes to flash end to end without a hitch.
So the takeaway is - if it's flashing the first portion, you have connectivity to the phone - but that does NOT mean adb/fastboot will have connectivity like it should. That takes the special google drivers. Also, it needs to flash TWICE for xFSTK. If it doesn't do both, things will be broken.
I found a raw image that was quite old 2.15.40.13 on asus-zenfone.com. password for zip is asus-zenfone.com. I've flashed that, and about to update to 2.19.40.20 to do the unlock. Rooting with one click root worked fine, but unlock I don't know did. So I'm getting the specific version it says it works for. I'll post an update when that's done.
Cheers

This did it for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118
After installing that, Asus flash tool worked for me
Also I found it will sometimes stall during flash. After partition and before flashing. If it doesn't show anything changing on the phone for 2-3 minutes, (except when it's flashing system), cose the app, make sure fastboot, fastboot2, and adb are all closed, and try again. Make sure to launch AFT as administrator.
Don't forget to catch the first boot before it loads the OS - AFT reboots once complete - and run unlock tool right then. if you miss it you have to start over.

5. loaded fw + os with xfstk downloader (successful)

6. while in bootloader i connected my phone to the pc and tried to use asus flash tool (as admin) - not listing devices
i tried every usb port i have and several different cables, nothing helps
im slowly giving up... in the attachments you have snapshots how it looks like when im connected and in fastboot mode. to make sure no dead drivers are in my way im on a freshly installed win10
EDIT: now something happened. i flashed bootloader via xfstk, then i powered off my phone and connected it again. then for a second AFT showed my serial number, but the state was a red X
after i restore my bootloader via xfstk. what do i have to do so AFT can see my phone? what you can see in the attachments is all i get from AFT.. but i dont know how to stay connected

You can leave flash tool and xfstk open same time. I flashed with xfstk, waited some time and moves between the bootloader options. Make sure no residual adb or fastboot exes are running. Then unplug the phone and plug it back in. Then it will show up. Select the option you have and click start. See if the bootloader shows any life or incoming partitioning happening . If that doesn't work reboot to bootloader scroll around in it to make sure it's loaded , it brings in the correct serial intermittently. But I don't think it's necessary.

So xfstk reboots
Xfstk round two no reboot scroll around
AFT
Unplug USB from phone and reconnect
Should show up .
Then click start. Did it give an error with that X?
Look at processes and see if it's launched adb or fastboot

I think you're close - it's flashing what's needed, and recognized the phone, although it did for me also but fastboot didn't work until the drivers with adb and fastboot. The last things I would think is reinstall the Google adb fastboot drivers with the phone connected to the USB port that got you this far, and if there is some serial no verification, look for .14 version of AFT.
