Hello folks
As per this photo, I think my Desire is dead. I have tried to reboot it in numerous ways, but without succes.
Is there any way to fix it?
Bortak's troubleshooting guide, stickied to the top of q&a, deals with this exact problem
Many thanks. I will se what I can do about it

I think there is a use case for the four triangles in Bortaks thread. Check it.
If I am not wrong this is a RUU problem. Case No 4. Did this happen after you used the RUU?
no, you can reflash the GB RUU again and it will be fine again.

It was after trying to install an RUU. Bortaks method (no 4) did not work. Android flasher tells me that there is no connection to the phone. How do I flash anything when I can´t get in contact with the phone?

Are the htcsync drivers installed onboard the computer? Theres a guide in my signature which will set it up for you in case its not installed. I guess Android flasher must be OK but I personally use the commandline. I always use the command
Code:
fastboot devices
to verify connectivity.

Yes, the drivers are installed, but as with the android flasher, I am tiold that there is no device connected. I have also installed the SDK kit as you have described, but the adb shell command tells me no device connected.
it cant be setup properly i guess. try the adb & fastboot guide in my sig, and make sure uv done it correctly.

Thank you. But I have tried this one too. I installed the G2 driver, but when I run adb on cmd, it gives me no device found.

Have you checked the guide I linked to above ? Use the drivers from HTC Sync, as in the guide, that should work fine.

Did you take the adb.exe and adbwinapi.dll and copy or move them to the \windows\system32 directory so you can run adb from any dos directory prompt.
You know what? I didn't even think about that. Ill give it a shot as soon as I go home. Thanks

dont know how adb still doesnt find my semi-bricked tmobile g2 phone. Once im in fastboot and hook up through usb it installs the adb android interface drivers, but once i go into adb and put in adb shell or adb devices its stil saying device not found. im using the usb wire that came with the htc evo shift which is the same exact usb as the g2 from what i know.
Are there ways to root using fastboot? Have usb brick but working fastboot, and guide using android emulatro doesnt work. Have latest RUU with 0.93 hboot
Have you tried running an RUU from HTC? They completely restore your phone to how it was, and your device only needs to be turned on on the bootloader screen for it to work. (power up with volume down pressed)
Note that this wil completely wipe the phone's internal memory. (though not the sd card)
You can find the RUUs here. If you have an unbranded device (meaning it wasn't customized by the carrier), this is probably the one you're looking for.
Remember: if the device powers on, it isn't bricked!
That post of RUUs is VERY old, here's the site which has them all...
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo
It was rooted originally with oxygen. When brick, I used downgrade tool, pimg.img zip from sdcard in hope for it to fix itself. Installed upgrades from htc to froyo. No luck
but if possible to push ruu using fastboot I will try it. Strange thing, it will only charge if rebooting via fastboot, and its then detected as in need of qualcomm drivers.. no luck finding working drivers to that.. Haven't found similar case in any forums. ideas?

For drivers you should install htc sync.
I know, but it doesn't take.. Thanks for hint though
Update. When I tried to run RUU in windows I only get 170 connection error, also in fastboot mode. Found it as PB99IMG file and ran it through SDcard, but it didnt fix usb problem.. Is there a difference between those two methods when i comes to degree of restoring? Dont think so, anyway..
I'm not entirely sure, but you can try this: when the device's powered on and connected in bootloader mode, go into the Device Manager, and find your phone in the list. Right click and choose the option to install a new driver (I don't know the exact function name in English, my system's locale is Dutch). Then, go to the screen where you can select a driver. Select HTC in the vendor list and install the driver. That should fix your 170 error.
If that doesn't work, try this, and optionally the above again.

Big thanks, but I´ve sent it in for repair. Hope to get in on garantee, but if not, I will just get it returned and try it out..
You need root for that though which he (and me) probably has not.
No, you don't. You can flash update.zip through the stock recovery.
Do you have access to that?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I've never had to do a usb-brick fix, but from what I understand, you should have root to flash that particular "update.zip", because otherwise you'll end up with a sig ver error or some sort of that.
As said in the first step "1. Follow this r5 rooting guide to do Step 1 of the rooting.That will give you a basic ROM to work with, with root capability."
The reason I think you need to flash it as an "update.zip" file is because the r5 method in itself does not flash a custom recovery (from which you can flash files without regard to the name).

did you install htc sync?
I know how to manually flash from the RUU, but I'm not sure that it would fix the problem and could break something. (especially since this RUU modifies hboot)
I'm also not sure if this fix works on phones that are capable of s-off. Which carrier do you have?

Does somebody know which official RUU can I install to my phone, if I have a CID: HTC___032 ?
I am asking it, because I have screwed up my phone a bit, and a want to return to stock. I do this PD98IMG.zip stuff, but after the blue and the the yellow bar have filled in the top right side of the bootloader, i says an error: Main version is older. I am trying the European WWE 3.12.405.1 rom, but I know that mine says I am on 3.13.0.0 in the RUU installer. What should I do?

I have read that thread (search for Ace advance hack kit AAHK link is removed form xda)
Then choose the option root.
A goldcard (goldcard creation process is completely integrated in this procedure)
Temproot
To downgrade the mainver on the device
A HTC signed firmware package from a suitable OTA update.
If he said fail try it again (me did it the 3 time)
When jou phone complete s- off is choose the options back the stock. You must have a ruu for that.
[ READ CARFULL THE MANUAL !!! You are not the first with a corrupt boot loader.]
Your problem is that you have it unlock with HTC dev. If you use that method you are not able to flash radio and kernels. Whitout the kernel he won't boot. Hope that that your helps

Running the hack kit is easier than setting up adb.
You could try uninstalling the htc drivers and installing them again, reboot the pc. And yeah, you might as well set up adb while you are at it if you really want to learn stuff over here at xda.

I have white screen pain....
I've tried to root my Desire HD on 3 different computers, just won't work. I've isntalled all the drivers etc to unlock the bootloader and the fastboot bit just won't work what so ever, any help?
First off all, how do you do it? You following a guide ?
Yeah. I've tried every guide on the forum.
I think the driver that never installs is the simple "android" driver. everything else seems ok. Also when I install the android sdk the folder for it don't show up anywhere.
But its definitely the phone. I'm also using Windows 8.
How are you putting your phone in fastboot?
Pressing fastboot on the bootloader menu... it's more driver/phone related i think

Assuming you installed your drivers correctly with HTC Sync, I'm betting it's a Windows 8 problem.

Linux maybe? LiveCD? If that doesn't work your phone is probably just broken.
Linux won't change anything, and the phone is working fine.

Specifically, your phone's fastboot would be broken, not the entire thing. Have you run a RUU? Has it ever been unlocked or flashed with a custom ROM?
If the drivers are fine and the phone is fine, they would work, wouldn't they? Between those two something isn't fine. So either the computer's drivers aren't working or the phone's fastboot isn't working. If drivers are not working, you either installed them incorrectly (which you said you haven't) or you need to use a supported OS (like Linux as a last resort). If fastboot isn't working, you either aren't going into it correctly (which you said you have) or your phone's fastboot is broken (in which case I guess you could try a RUU).
Note: do not flash a Froyo RUU on a phone running GB.
Another note: I strongly advise that if you ask for help in the future, you put details on all the things you've tried in your OP all at once. Then you get a faster answer because there is less back-and-forth.
Never ran an RUU. Might try that. And no it Hasn't

It's a 2.0 HBOOT.
There is no 2.0 hboot. It could be 2.00.0029, in which case you can unlock it, or 2.00.0027, in which case you need to make a goldcard and update the hboot with a newer RUU (unless there is a newer RUU made for your phone, in which case you don't need a goldcard). There are more specific instructions around here somewhere, but you will need to search for them.
