RUU
and when I plug it in with cable to my pc my screen changes to a white htc sign with for triangles on the corners of screen!!!
what can I do???:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:

Relax you're not stuck. You got s-off which is the most important thing when rooting for the first time.
you can now flash a custom.
I recommend 4ext recovery
recovery trough adb/adb.
Superwipe and install a custom rom.
Will provide some links and such when I get to a computer

I cannot do anything! volume down and power doesn't work either!
when I plug in to pc and type adb reboot bootloader
it says: device not found!
how can I flash recovery?

Boot into bootloader and try to select RUU and se what happens. You could try to flash a ruu using the bootloader method. I'm still not home so try to read and see what you can get from this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396229 there is says how you can install recovery and rom through bootloader. Ask if you have any questions or if anything is unclear.

RUU cannot be selected. only place that I can boot to is this screen! in the guide you mentioned I am trying to do Reinstalling Recovery but I dont know if I can do it from this screen!
can I download another recovery? because I cannot download the one that they linked in the guide.

where can I find & download a custom recovery?

Download recovery here:
https://dl.dropbox.com/s/xvpefd1yccx81lu/4EXT_Recovery_Touch_v1.0.0.5_RC8.zip?dl=1
It's the latest 4ext recovery.
Rename the zip to PD98IMG and put into the root of the sdcard (not any folder ) and boot into bootloader. This is also covered in the guide i think.

I formated the sd card and put the recovery file in it but it didn't work!!
I still have the same screen
nothing works please help!!!
my phone boot to a screen with a white htc sign with for triangles on the corners of the screen!!!
snd thrn switch to the screen that i said in my first post

Did you rename the zip file to PD98IMG?

- Run the RUU as Administrator.
- Tick the 'I understand the caution indicated above...' box, and click next.
- At this point do not go any further!
- Navigate to C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\Temp (xxxxx is your user name , and ... AppData is a hidden folder)
- You should see one or two folders like this example: {E328FA5C-81C2-4B70-96AE-D5418A9A5B75}
- Go into the folder with "dotnetinstaller.exe".
- Open the next folder. (like this example: {50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}
- Copy "rom.zip" into another folder (outside of temp).
- At this point just Cancel and quit the ROM Update Utility.
- Rename the "rom.zip" to "PD98IMG.zip" and put it on to the root directory of your MicroSD card in your phone.
- Shut down the phone.
- Press the Power button + Volume down button at the same time and hold them untill you get to HBOOT (white screen with skateboarding android).
- Wait for the HBOOT to parse the zip file.
- Follow the on-screen instructions and boot into newly flashed device.

can I flash the recovery with android flasher?

Did you try the tutorial i posted?

Try what muikkuman said.
When you tried to flash the recovery, did you place the pd98img.zip and then tried to get into hboot? Were you able to get into hboot?
If not you can use the hack kit to flash a ruu/return to stock.

Hmm...

Uninstall the antivirus program, uninstall the drivers and then reinstall the drivers...some people have had this issue and its something i advise a good bit of the time and it resolves the issue.....

Or you could simply disable your anti virus program before unzipping ace hack kit and use the htc drivers contained in the hack kit.

[Q] Desire S-ON bootloop, RUU img help if u please :)

Hi.
I have a problem with my DHD, and have been browsing these forums for a solution. Im new to this so i need some confirmation, a url, and some explanation.
This happend:
I tried to root my desire HD with visionary+ r14. I did temproot, got back into the app just fine, checked for "set system r/w after root", and clicked attemt permroot. The phone booted, and got stuck in a bootloop. My Hboot menu sais S-ON on top. Tried reseting factory settings nothing helps. Since i didnt get the phone rooted, no clockword recovery installed...
Phone details:
The phone had the factory 1.32 build on it.
other info that might be valid:
Hboot: 0.85.0007
microp-0438
radio-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
oct 11. 2010
1. From searching and reading, it seems i need a RUU stock image build 1.32, can anyone provide me with an URL for the correct image?
2. Can i use the bootloader on the phone to do this? ..and how?
Hope u have some time to spare, and help this niblet :=)
Thnx for reading
PS:
Before i did this, the phone was rooted, with the same visionary pluss file. I tried to install clockword recovery mod, but it wouldnt "take". I then factory reset the phone in the android recovery menu, and the rest is listed above.
Download your RUU from here: http://xdafil.es/index.php?path=DesireHD/RUU/
How do i know i have the right drivers on the pc? Do i get those drivers from installing the HTC sync program?

If you install HTC sync (download it from their website or it is also in your sdcard unless you have not removed it ), you get all the necessary drivers...
Hm, i have installed HTC sync, but as my phone is stuck on the blackscreen and red triangle, HTC sync does not detect my phone.
When i try to run the exe file "RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed", it gives me an error [170], USB connection error.
Is there a way to run this file from the bootloader?
Try to push a PD98IMG.zip (this is stock HTC 1.32 rom from this thread unrooted, hboot s-on) to the sd card, boot into bootloader and flash "new" rom
with adb:
Code:
adb push directory/to/your/PD98IMG.zip /sdcard/
adb reboot bootloader
or if adb doesn't work, put the stock rom into the top of your sdcard, reboot the phone while holding the vol-down button.
follow the instructions on the device(normally it search for the PD98IMG.zip and ask you to install it)
How importanat is the last part of the filename of the RUU file "_2 6.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed". As the phone is not bootable i cant check find that info on the phone anymore.
"Radio_12.28b.60.140e_2 6.03.02.26_M" it's the radio version.
At the bottom of this site is the USB Driver try it.
Thnx to both of u. Everything now working like a charm.
Good that you got it sorted. Can you edit the tag and put [solved]?

with an unbranded device it should be easy, download the driver and the image in the posts above, install the driver and run the exe.
On linux/unix you can download the sdk (intructions to install on the site) and then you are able to use the adb commands with the PD98IMG.img also in the posts above.
with a branded device it can be more complicated take a look at this but i don't know how far your system is online and if you are able to use adb.
As the guy above me mentioned, it's quite easy to recover your phone if it's unbranded.
Download a WWE RUU from the link someone postet before. Then boot into the bootloader and connect your DHD to your pc. If you have htc sync installed, it should recognise your phone. Then run the RUU on you pc and everything should be fine now.

[Q] Unrooting, gone t!ts up, now bricked.

Im massively confused.
I would like to return my desire to stock, I've had nothing but signal problems since rooting and flashing another rom.
My phone was originally an o2 branded phone, so I have downloaded the RUU for the o2 (i'm guessing this includes the radio?) I've tried running the RUU and its gives me an error about my bootloader, I've just checked and the bootloader is 0.80.
Now this is where i'm getting confused, I can't wholeley remember what SDcard I made my goldcard. So do I need to make a new goldcard in order to compelte the Unroot or do I need to downgrade 2.2 to 2.1 using this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256 and then start again...
Or am I miles out?
Which ruu did you try?
This is the most recent one on shipped roms:

You don't need a goldcard if you flash the ruu which was installed on your phone when you bought it.
So if you phone was o2 branded and you flash a o2 ruu , you don't need a goldcard. If you want to flash a wwe ruu (unbranded) you do.
Did you write down the exact firmware version before rooting?

Right so its just about finding the correct RUU to get the phone working again?
Unfortunately I did'nt write any information down

cant do nothing with any of the buttons, the only time the screen changes is when i unplug the phone from the usb (connected to computer) then i get a white screen that gives me some hboot information and under that ( normally where you would expect to see the bootloader etc it just says RUU, but again none of the buttons function.

Download the ruu again from the link eddy gave you.
Then use EddyOS his instructions about extracting the .zip file from the .exe you just downloaded.
You can extract the ROM.zip from any RUU to install via ZIP
Start the RUU and once at the first main screen click Start>Run and type
%temp%
now, find the newest folder and in there will be a ZIP file called Rom - copy this to your desktop and rename it PB99IMG. (Don't extract the file) Now copy this to your SD card and start the phone in HBOOT (turn it on whilst holding volume down). It will find the file and start the update. Just follow the instructions...
Do all this while not plugged into your computer. Not sure if it will work, but it's worth a shot.

[Q] Help with HBOOT

Hi, I have just bought a second hand Desire for my wife. The person I bought it off had changed the HBOOT and put Oxygen rom on it. She wanted it back to sense so I tried to flash the official RUU via HTC Synch thinking it would change the HBOOT at the same time. Now all I have is HTC in the middle of the screen with an exclamation mark in each corner.
Anyone give me a step by step guide of how to get it working again??.
Thanks in advance.....
Scotty.
cant u just flash the alphrev stock hboot or zip. or reflash recovery??

Read the adb and Fastboot faq via my signature (ignore all the adb stuff, read just fastboot).
Set up your computer for fastboot (or download Fastboot flash utility - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638)
Download this: http://alpharev.nl/bravo_downgrade.img
Boot into fastboot (from off hold back and press power)
Using the knowledge from the FAQ and / or Fastboot flash utility, Flash the bravo_downgrade.img as a hboot (eg fastboot flash hboot bravo_downgrade.img)
Run RUU again
This may not make sense looking at it now, but read the FAQ and it will.

Easy way- grab PB99IMG.zip containing bravo_downgrade.img from Alpharev, check md5 checksum (if it's not correct- redownload), put it on SD and boot to bootloader. Hboot will be flashed by bootloader itself

Dont worry what is already in there, thats nothing to do with what we're doing. Zune is an MS thing so its not implausable that its there.
1 thing though, is it my sdk tools, or googles? If its googles, check in the folder to make sure adb and fastboot are there, as they may actually be in platform-tools instead. Amend the line you are adding if that is the case. Or just add both, ie:
;C:\android-sdk-windows\tools;C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools

Remove RUU from sd-card or remove card- bootloader tries to flash it if file is found.
Also in bootloader mode you don't have access to adb- this requires running system or recovery.

Can't Flash a custom recovery (Rooted with HTCDev) 2.3.5

Hello
I recently started the root process by unlocking my bootloader utilizing the HTCDev Method with S-On (HBOOT- 2.18.0001). Now I'm unlocked! The next step (I guess) is to flash a custom recovery which I'm having difficulty doing. Granted, there are several ways to install a custom recovery. I utilized two of those ways, 1) Through Bootloader and 2) via ROM Manager; both have proved unsuccessful for me.
The Bootloader way - -
I placed PC36IMG.zip on the root of my sd card.
Selected FastBoot
Got a response, "Main Version is older! Update Fail!" Do you want to reboot device?"
Via Rom Manager - -
Download "Rom Manager" from the Android market
Select "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery"
Result, An error occurred while attempting to run privileged commands!
Not sure what I'm doing wrong, can anyone help me install a custom recovery?

You don't have to select fastboot.
Just put the recovery on your sd card, not in any folders.
make sure it's named pc36img.zip
Boot to recovery (Hold Volume down and power until hboot shows up)
It'll scan, find the file and ask you to update, hit yes
I advise this recovery: PC36IMG_ra-supersonic-4.3-smelkus-tmdirt2.zip
http://d-h.st/tbF
Don't use ROM Manager for flashing alternate recoveries, btw. It's based on Clockwork Mod, which isn't a good recovery for the EVO
Ok. Will try later tonight and will let you know the outcome.

First off I'm a noob...Im working on a metro flashed evo 4g on 2.2froyo and metrodroid 2.2 rom.It has some sort of hboot recovery and green clockworkmod recovery 2.?.? which both seem to work horribly...I'm trying to 1. Install latest 3g compatible android os Gb or Ics? 2.Flash a better recovery...one that works. 3. Flash a nice metro rom cyanogen or like that.
Ive read so many posts in different forums and couldn't find a case quite like mine or a up to date link.If someone could help me with recovery I think I can make due. Any other help is greatly appreciated

I put the img file on my sd card (no folders) and renamed it (pc36img.zip).
Here are my specs as they read on HBOOT Screen
****UNLOCKED****
SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-2.18.001
MICROP-041f
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab
RADIO-2.15.00.12.19

Is there anything else I can do? As I mentioned before I used the HTCDev Method to Unlock my phone.

You have to get the .img of your recovery and place it where you have your android sdk aka adb and fast boot and place them in the same directory. Then power down to the boot loader on your phone then using the volume keys select fast boot. Plug your phone into your PC. In a command prompt navigate to where your fastboot file is and type fast boot flash recovery (name of recovery image).img

You don't have to select fastboot.
Just put the recovery on your sd card, not in any folders.
make sure it's named pc36img.zip
Boot to recovery (Hold Volume down and power until hboot shows up)
It'll scan, find the file and ask you to update, hit yes
I advise this recovery: PC36IMG_ra-supersonic-4.3-smelkus-tmdirt2.zip

Don't use ROM Manager for flashing alternate recoveries, btw. It's based on Clockwork Mod, which isn't a good recovery for the EVO

I attached some files to give you a visual of what I did exactly. I did just as you said and I received an error message in the cmd stating, "cannot load 'pc36img.zip.
I'm not up on rooting newer Hboot's, but I also didn't realize you were S-On.

You can flash the recovery like I posted above

Thanks, but here's the thing... 1. I've tried flashing other roms/recoveries on this phone via the recovery thats there now and the zip file is never in the folder where it should be (downloads) when I go to choose the file to flash its never there just some other unrelated zip. 2. The root or metrodroid v2.2/kernel that's there now took away all file managing apps (think free/stock files app) I can't even use appsaver to l load it...because theres no way to manage the files...yay! And 3. Theres no data/mms...I plan on flashing the fix along with a custom rom/kernel...it's the recovery! Please help thanks in advance.

You have to extract the recovery image out of the pc36img.zip file

Windows hides file extensions for known file types. What this means is that there is a hidden .zip at the end of your pc36img.zip so windows actually sees the file as pc36img.zip.zip
take the .zip you can see off of the file and try again - or I suppose you could change the command to reflect the extra .zip, but thats not really the "right" way to do it.
And if you are tyring to flash it directly with the phone that wont work either for two reasons 1) your phone does not recognize a file named.zip.zip also 2) if you are unlocked but s-on you cant flash that way, it needs to be done with fastboot. My phone is unlocked s-on and flashing the recovery was the hardest step to figure out because most guys decide to go full s-off and dont realize what the issue is...
It looks like you already got fastboot working so try this. Rename the recovery to "recovery.img" then the fastboot command would be
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
or if you dont rename the recovery file:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery (whatever the filename is)
you may also have to tell window to show file extensions for known file types, not sure how to do that in win 7, but im sure google does.
Same way you do it in every version of Windows.
Control Panel/Folder Options
OP, what software version are you on? If you're on version 5.07, the custom recoveries written for the older version (4.56, I think) won't work. Captain Throwback actually wrote two newer recoveries for the newer software version. I had the same problem with the error "Main Version is Older", until I flashed the new recovery. Also, I was UNLOCKED S-ON Hboot 2.18 and flashed the recovery through the bootloader without any issues. The new recoveries should be in the guide for rooting with Hboot 2.18. Just place the recovery file on the root of your SD card, make sure it's named PC36IMG.zip, then enter the bootloader. When it asks if you want to update, press the corresponding key for 'yes', and the new recovery will be installed.

7 vibrations but I can get to hboot and green htc splach screen

Hi there
I have an HTC inspire 4G and I'm trying to install a rom on it just to get to work :/
And I've already fixed hboot problem thanks to chrisb906 and I tried several RUUs and it doesn't seem to work even if they are successfully installed!
If I boot it normally I get : 1 vibration > htc green splach screen > 2~3 secs later > 7 vibrations > black screen > nothing!
here is what I get in HBOOT

Do you have a custom recovery?
If you dont, you can find one here 4ext recovery
Download it and extract the .img file to ur adb/fastboot directory.
Rename the .img file to recovery.img
Boot your device into bootloader.
Connect your device to your PC and enter...
Code:
fastboot devices
(just to be sure.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Once its done flashing, reboot your device into recovery.
Transfer a rom to ur sd card.
Flash it and flash inpiremod if not added to rom already.

Wait i think i am beginning to get you. Pls answer these questions
1. When you boot into bootloader and then select recovery, does it vibrate and gives you a black screen?
2. When you turn it off and connect it to a computer via usb, does the charging light come on and shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD on your computer?
3. When you try flashing ruu, via placing the ***IMG.zip on your sdcard and boot to bootloader, does it detect the ruu, asks you weather you want to flash. And after pressing volume up for yes, its looks as if its flashing but after rebooting stays the same?
4. Or when you try to flash the system.img via fastboot, does it gets stuck flashing?
1) yes, it vibrates and then 7 vibrations (after 2~3 secs) and then a black screen, and hitting the power button wont reboot the phone
2) yes, and even when it is on and on black screen it gives it to me
3) yes
3) no, never tried it

Lol..you are in serious trouble.
You might be wondering how i knew all that.
Cause it happened to my old Desire HD(Still didnt know weather it was a DHD or Inspire 4G.
It turned out it was emmc problem.
You should think of getting a new device or getting a new motherboard as that was what i did.
I followed an unbrick thread here.
It never worked for me. But you could try.
I remember i installed a wrong QHSUSB_DLOAD drivers which kind of corrupted the bootloader.
So watch out what drivers you use. There might be a possiblity, your might work.
