[Q] DHD bricked?

Hi all,
Im having a little trouble with my dhd. It won't boot up !
I can get into HBOOT, but thats it. (ie. no recovery CWM)
When trying to boot normally it hangs at spash screen.
so far i have tried:
- fastboot flashing (system.img dosn't flash (for known reasons))
- this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=841890) (tried with 2 different RUUs)
everything seemed to go according to plan, but still exactly the same problem.
- I've even tried flashing back the stock spash screen via fastboot in preperation to send it back to tmobile/htc to fix BUT, despite fastboot telling me flashing was succsessful, i still have my custom splash!
- pulling my hair out!
ive got eng hboot s-off radio s-off supercid and stuff??
my hboot info screen looks like this:
ACE PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.85.2007 (PD9810000)

Which cw recovery is installed?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

First question, what did you do immediately before you turned you DHD off, hence the reboot?
From the bootloader can you enter fastboot? You should be able to flash recovery from there. You mention "for known reasons" what are these?

Hi pwraggcan,
I'm not too sure? and I'm not sure how I can check either, as I can only enter hboot/fastboot.
AndyHarney,
As far as I can remember I was using my phone as normal. (no risky installs/flashes to speak of). Then overnight it ran out of battery, and now won't boot up .. ?
fastboot flash system system.img returns:
sending 'system' (410134 KB)... FAILED (remote: data length is too large)
finished. total time: 0.006s
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img returns:
sending 'recovery' (8701 KB)... OKAY [ 1.494s]
writing 'recovery'... OKAY [ 0.837s]
finished. total time: 2.331s
but when I choose 'RECOVERY' form hboot menu it still hangs on splash.

So you have recovery, and you're rooted, well I'd say install a ROM as ROMS flash system, boot and cache img files. Sending a 410mb file ofver adb seems a bit risky. Also, if you have no ROMs on the SD Card go into recovery, mounts and storage and at the bottom is usb or something.

MrYuiM,
I don't mean to act the fool, but I don't fully understand you're post.
"well I'd say install a ROM as ROMS flash system, boot and cache img files"
not sure how I can go about doing this? using fastboot?
"Also, if you have no ROMs on the SD Card go into recovery"
which ROMs do you mean? I have on my sdcard "LeeDrOiD_HD_V1.5.1.zip" and others. I also have some nandroid backups.
Currently, I have not found a way to enter recovery..
P.S I apologize for spewing my ignorance all over this thread.

Get PD98IMG.zip from my downgrade guide, put it into your SD card and go to the bootloader. Then tell us what what happens.
By the way, you still have fully warranty despite the fact that your device has S-OFF. There is nothing about software mods in warranty terms. For example mike1986 sent his phone to HTC's service center, it was S-OFF and it even had a custom ROM in it, and they did not complain.

When I asked HTC they were pretty stern on the fact that rooting voids their warranty despite it not being in the guidelines :/

To enter recovery turn your phone off completely and plug it into the charger, recovery will auto open. Also, everyone starts off somewhere.
But go with jkoljo first as he is more experienced

Hi jkoljo,
Downloading now,
It's also a big relief to hear that software modding dosn't effect warrenty *phew*

Good luck mate, report back on how it goes

Might be futile but you could try a different recovery. If you're s off it should work. Try a 2.x.x.x then a 3.x.x.x. flashing from fastboot, it could be that. If the pd98img doesn't work then it might be a faulty motherboard and htc will have to fix it.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

I tried jkoljo advice, but still no dice! ... (hey that rhymes!)
One thing I noticed as it was checking SD card: -
SD Checking...
Loading...[PD98DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PD98DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PD98IMG.zip]
are those errors normal?!
just to clarify, after jkoljo's PD98IMG.zip update, I reboot and it hangs at my custom spash screen, just as before.
It's as if I hadn't tried to update/recover at all!
Anyways, Thankyou all for your help, assistance and advice.
I have to go out now, but ill be back tomorrow to try again.

It seems that you have to format your SD card. Do a full format to FAT32 (no quick format), and try it again.

Ok, formatted and tried again.
But same results as my last post.
I even tried with 2 SD's (4gb + 8gb).
Does this mean my phone is not recoverable..?
....I hope not..

oopes, delete this post please

Could you recommend one?
The only one I've ever known is CWM.
Also I don't have much faith in fastboot right now.
When I flashed my stock splash, it said 'OK' but never changed!
Thanks pwraggcan

Try flashing a different recovery while in fastboot.. Try the stock one first and if you can boot into recovery wipe data/factory reset.
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img
recovery zip attached. good luck.

Thanks for the suggestion pwraggcan,
I tried that recovery.. and it flashed 'OK' but still no change from my previous attempts.
Soo... Shall I call this a write-off and let HTC deal with it..
Or are there any last ditch solutions I could be trying.
Jason9

As a last resort try the attached recovery. If this recovery doesn't work it's gotta be a hardware issue. I'm thinking if you backed up with a 2 series cw recovery then updated the recovery with rom manager to a 3 series cw recovery it won't let restore the backup. So, try the attached and fingers crossed, you're up and running. Probably won't sort it but definitely worth a try.

[Q] Bricked or is there still hope?

I'm messing around since 3 days with a non working Desire.
I was trying to root that Vodafone UK Branded Phone with a goldcard, but it somehow did't really work stable.
So I managed it to install a RUU in order to revert it and begin the Process from the beginning on:
1.This was the RUU, and everything went fine: RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed
2.Then I tried to downgrade my HBOOT from 0.93.0001 to 0.80 using the method in this thread (with goldcard!)
3. During the installation of the PB99IMG.zip something went wrong and (maybe a mismatch with goldcard or the mtd0.img, i still don't know / understand) HBOOT could not be updated and RADIO-V2 also
4. now I cant boot the Phone at all or issue adb commands (I think the phone needs to be fully booted and USB-debbug-enabled for this) so I cant follow any of the solutions wich I found in the last two days. A PB99IMG.zip is also not flashable in HBOOT since it just cancels after "Checking..[PB99IMG.zip]" and returns back to the HBOOT screen.
Here's my phones specs:
CID: VODAP102
PVT4
S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
SLCD
RADIO 5.11.05.27
If someone has an idea where to start, any help would be greatly apreciated. If someone is even willing to assist via instant messaging or skype I would be happy to compensate his time with a donation via paypal! Thank you in advance!
EDIT: SOLVED!!!
cosine83 from the unrevoked IRC channel solved it for me!!
I was able to enter RUU mode and flash the PB99IMG.zip in 2 quick steps!
In fastboot mode:
1.fastboot oem rebootRUU
2.fastboot flash zip PB99IMG.zip
huge thanks!!!

I think it must have something to do with a wrong mtd0.img which was flashed during my first attempt to downgrade (mybe not matching the PB99IMG???) or there is a problem with the goldcard (i am very certain that I did everythin correct with the gc, did it manually and also tith the gc-maker)

well I can select the "recovery" from the Hboot menu and also try flashing an update.zip, but every time I do this I get:

The best way should find a correct hboot P99IMG.zip and put it on the SD

I thought it wasn't possible to change hboot until you s-off? or does a goldcard make it possible when s-on?
if you can access the bootloader menu (vol down + power) then you should be able to fix your phone.

Do you try to install an ruu Rom?
Sent from Desire Bravo with xda App. Leedroid ROM HD port inside.

Boot the phone into bootloader menu.
connect usb cable.
in command prompt load the SDK folder, instead of typing adb.exe type fastboot.exe.
place the hboot you want into the "platform-tools" folder in the SDK directory - if its in the pb99img.zip then extract the .img file from there and place just that file into the folder.
type "fastboot flash hboot *name-of-file.img*"
if this works then type
type "fastboot reboot-bootloader"
type "fastboot erase cache"
Not sure it will work though as you are S-ON.
However you should be able to flash a recovery through the same way, type "fastboot flash recovery *name.img*". Not sure if this will help fix it, but if you can access recovery then its a start! Obviously you'll need to download a recovery first and place it into the platform-tools folder.

[Q] No boot

My dad got a HTC Incredible from ebay and it will not boot. It is stuck in bootloop if I try to just boot it normally. I can get into HBoot, S-on. HBoot version is 1.02.000. Recovery does not work from here. It just goes into bootloop. I've tried flashing various images with hboot as well as using RUU. RUU always gives me a error of 140.
Anyone have any idea of what I need to do?

You need to unlock the bootloader with the htcdev site unless its already unlocked, and then fastboot flash cwm recovery img.

When I go to the HTCdev site and select the phone then "Begin Unlock Bootloader" nothing happens. I'm assuming it will download an exe or something?

I am able to get the token for the phone through fastboot but I can't seem to get the site to progress past the main screen.
Edit - For some reason Chrome would not work on the site. I had to move to IE to get the process to work.

I was able to flash clockwork recovery but now when I choose to boot into recovery I just see the white HTC Incredible screen.

[Q] Idiot With HTC one X stuck in boot loop.

Hello,
I’ve been following guides to root my phone and put a custom ROM onto it. I had no experience in doing this so I thought I would follow an idiots guide and was stupid enough not to back up the original ROM along with not reading up properly on what I was about to do… (yes you can call me names I shall accept it)
The problem I'm having is after putting the custom ROM which was ViperX3.2.0 The phone just stays stuck on the HTC one Tm with beats audio and keeps resetting it self, anyway i can fix it? or have i bricked it.
I'm a complete noobie cause I've been looking around for the past 3 days and still can't find anything (or something I can understand) :angel:
- I've wiped cache, dalvik cache and battery stats
- I go to recovery and click mount sd card nothing happens mount usb storage nothing happens.
- I don't understand next to nothing, need like android for idiots. :good:
- When phones booting up my computer recognises something but has not drivers and fails (But i had drivers and could transfer stuff too and from)
So if you can help i will love you forever
Many Thanks
RIch

I'm going to quote the instructions on the ViperX page. Have you even followed these steps?
Code:
1. Make sure your that your HBOOT is 1.31 or greater
2. Check if you CID is supported, visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376 for updates. Cheers Mike
3. Unlock your bootloader via HTCDev and install a custom recovery.
4. Download the ROM and place it on your virtual SD card.
5. Do a nandroid backup!
6. Extract boot.img from ROM zip and flash it using ‘fastboot flash boot boot.img’.
7. Use 'fastboot erase cache' to avoid boot issues.
8. Go into recovery and install the ROM.
9. Please choose fullwipe if you are asked, highly recommended if you go from one rom from another rom.
10. Reboot the device and enjoy!

Did you flash the boot.img file in fastboot? fastboot flash boot boot.img followed by fastboot erase cache

Just keep trying 'fastboot flash zip (lalala)' until it works.
Afterwards, you need to re-unlock your bootloader with 'fastboot flash unlocktoken unlock_code.bin'
then reflash boot.img 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'
then 'fastboot erase cache'
then reflash recovery 'fastboot flash recovery (lalalaa.img)'

-EDIT-
DONE IT! However i don't have no signal and can't connect to wifi? did i miss a step?
also i would love the opportunity to learn about this stuff starting from the basics, any advice on some reading i should do? i know it's a cheeky question but it's a must I think LOL
But thank you for your time.

Whoopsie, did fastboot flash boot boot.img didn't start up so i thought i would check recovery and earse some caches, theres an error for it to load. (a phone laying down with an exclaimation mark) so i can't do a wipe

Reflash the custom recovery
Fastboot flash recovery recover.img
Fastboot erase cache

Anyway to get the recovery back? so i can try another ROM to see if that could possibly fix the problem, just can't get into recovery D: happy my phone turns on lol however no network or can't connect to wifi
by fashing the boot did nothing but crash it more.
so i had to redo what you taught me, thank you again and i'm back to where i said i was

Flash this one again

Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Rename the downloaded file to recovery.img before you flash !

Many thanks, recovery up and running. now that I know this I'll try to reinstall the ROM.
Are there any reasons why I'm not getting signal or WiFi? along with that from the unlock it seem rather slow,
But I guess it's time for me to experiment, now that i know how to fix it if I mess up

Maybe because of this :
When installing the viper you get a question about the custom kernel ....
Answer with NO !

I am sure I have done that a few times, going to try re downloading and try to reinstall. May not be installing right,

Thanks
Just signed up to say thanks Mr Hofs for the help you've posted in this thread in particular but also in many other threads I've been referring to over the last 4 hours or so. I was well on my way to brickage following a screwed up attempt to root my HOX, but thanks to you I'm now up and running again. Admittedly I'm back at square one with a non-rooted handset, but I never would've believed that would be such a happy place to be, plus I feel a tiny bit less of a noob now.
Anyway, apologies for crashing your thread Richlilrich - as you were!

Okay, in fastboot mode, type 'fastboot getvar cidnum' to get your CID number.
then according to that number, go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957376

then use the following commands:

Hey Guy's,
I know this thread is old and many of you might not see this anymore but I'm sure this is where I need to be.
I have a UK Quad Core HOX and rooted fine a while ago.
I placed Cyanogen on for a while and all was running fine but it doesn't have all the tweaks I'd like so looked around for another ROM.
I came across the ViperROM and thought - Great! Exactly what I wanted, checked the reviews - All good, checked my HBoot etc... All seems fine. Went ahead and installed it through CWM (5.8.4.0) like I have done a thousand times before and went and rewrote the boot.img and got a continuous HTC boot loop. Thought hey no harm no fuss and went back into recovery to restore my most recent back-up only to find that they had all gone - My stock recovery my previous tries at other ROMS and most importantly my most recent Backup!!!!
I followed the steps above over and over again, I can re-lock my HOX, reboot into RUU and flash the 3.16.61.6 firmware (and boot img inside zip) and it still bootloop's over and over....... (I can unlock again too)
I've tried adb pushing Stock and custom ROMS to the SD card which says success in windows cmd but says no files on SDcard.
What am I doing wrong?
P.S hboot details are;

Would like to add that I would prefer Viper to stock but stock would help for now

Before going for RUU and stuff, try any other roms.
I'd say do this :
Flash TWRP - Better than CWM anyday.
Go to recovery. Mount USB. Copy Viper (or any other) rom to phone.
Reboot to bootloader.
Flash boot.img.
Fastboot erase cache.
Go to recovery.
Clean install ROM.
Reboot and wait for it. First boot takes pretty long sometimes.

There is no better recovery, a recovery is personal. I'm using CWM now for 2 years....never had a problem with that.....
Now the issue.
How to copy it is in the post above, however before you install the rom you need to make a real good full wipe
Factory reset
Wipe cache partition
Advanced - wipe dalvik cache
Mounts & storage - format cache, data, system
Then install the rom...and ofcourse flash the boot.img from the rom.zip
The option to mount in CWM is under mounts and storage copy the rom.zip over and unmount.
The way i personally follow is :
Flash the boot.img (fastboot, bootloader mode) then enter the recovery and follow the above....make sure you unplug the usb cable BEFORE installing the rom.zip

Hello,
Recently my htc wildfire S crashed and only boots to Hboot mode..
cannot go to recovery and cannot do factory reset.. when i press these options the phone just reboots to hboot mode
the phone can be detected via usb and i do get hboot usb plug detection as well fastboot usb mode..
I have tried hundreds of possibilities to flash but failed..
Have tried the RUU method via computer whereby i get different errors and also tried different RUU but unsuccessful
The last RUU that i had used to root my phone was
RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed
which worked well for one year but crashed after reseting to factory settings
now..
when my bootloader is unlocked i got error 155 image error
when my bootloader is relocked i get error 140 bootloader version error
both ways it stops during verifying for signature
and on the phone it shows main version older.. update failed
have tried to place PM76IMG.zip on sdcard but the phone reads as wrong or no image
(and this goes for different RUU as well)
have tried to use fastboot via cmd commands but get
FAILED (remote: 12 signature verify fail)
or
FAILED (remote: 43 signature verify fail)
images do load without problem but fail after signature checking
there is no other RUU newer than 2.26
cannot downgrade hboot cause cannot access my phone just hboot mode only
cannot do flash recovery as i have tried many recovery images all failing as well as clockword mode recovery image
PLEASE HELP load the ROM and make the phone usable again

Did you make a Gold card before placing PG76IMG in SD card?

Your recoverys are not flashing as you have relocked your bootloader pal. Try flashing the stock recovery from hboot this should at least have a factory reset option. Failing this, you should try re-unlocking your bootloader and then flashing cwm.
If all of this fails then you will need to gain access to an xtc clip, make the phone s-off and then flash any ruu you want bump this thread if you need anymore help

What errors are you getting when trying to flash cwm via fastboot while the bootloader is unlocked. Be specific please
Also their is no other way to s-off bar the xtc clip. But, once you have s-off trouble shooting bootloader/ruu issues is far easier

Ok while unlocked, take your cwm recovery image and rename it to recovery.img if you have not already.
Then boot into fastboot and use the command
Fastboot boot recovery recovery.img
Hopefully it will boot into the recovery. This is only tempoary, do not reboot until you have wiped everything. Check and see if it boots after full wipes.
If this fails you will need a xtc clip...

tried again all possibilities..
with fastboot boot recovery recovery.img it does download successfully and writes booting.. however after the phone has booted by itself the htc screen shows up (with white background) and directly goes into fastboot menu without other options...
Maybe i am uploading wrong recovery image??
if its loading into bootloader menu that means my phone is soft bricked right?? which can be undone??
my dilemma is that i live in a third world country with no htc service providers or good phone repair shops who would have an xtc clip..

The main issue is that it should still boot into the recovery via fastboot regardless of its working state from what i have read the main nand seems to have some sort of error that it cannot over write so its not letting you boot anything weither that is a fail safe or not i dont know. At this point a xtc clip would be your last hope, but i cannot guarrentee it would work... I have an xtc clip, but i dont want to post it outside of the uk ......

Were you overclocked ? Were you using some sort of memory script ?
I'd say your best option is to have it sent back, smells like a burnt motherboard.

Hi tahaice!.
I just recovered an HTC Wildfire S A510e for a friend with a problem similar to yours!
He entered on HBOOT and wiped & format some partitions: data/factory reset, system, data, sdcard, etc.....
I read quickly your problem and I think that this can help you:
1.- Download the correct RUU from: androidfiles.org/ruu/?developer=Marvel_MarvelC
For instance, I used RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed for Spain (Device was with last update, my friend was sure).
You can check it on HBOOT:

And when you finish restore: go to Settings/About phone/Software info/More. Base band version must match the file you used (you will not restore radio.img, if not needed).
2.- Run the RUU until the wizard comes up. While the RUU wizard is open, find the temporary folder it created. (Open Explorer in Windows and type %temp% in the navigation bar.) There will be folders with long names (C:\Users\lefe\AppData\Local\Temp\{9739F95A-99D7-43BA-8AB6-E4F02264D361}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B} for instance).
Inside one of them you will find the file rom.zip from RUU. Open it with 7zip and extract recovery.img, boot.img and system.img. Put it in the location you preffer (C:\Users\lefe\HTC Wildfire S A510e\ADB in the example).
You also need adb.exe, AdbWinApi.dll and fastboot.exe. Copy from the folder you found the file rom.zip (or from Android SDK tools if you have installed it).
3.- Boot the phone into bootloader (power off, hold down volume and press power) and highlight FASTBOOT using the volume rocker and pressing power. Then connect the USB cable. You should see FASTBOOT USB.
As you say, this is not needed in your case because your phone goes directly. Just plug.
4.- Open a command prompt in Windows and navigate to the folder where you unpacked ADB / installed Android SDK tools. Flash the stock images extracted in step 2 above using the following commands (Remember to turn your firewall off):
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img

Example (what I did):
Code:

OKAY [ 31.535s]
writing 'system'...
OKAY [ 64.846s]
finished. total time: 96.393s
5.- Finally, in your phone go to HBOOT menu and make a FACTORY RESET.
If needed, PowerOff device (remove battery for 3 seconds) and Boot the phone into bootloader (hold down volume and press power).
That's all!!.
I hope you get lucky!
