Help please - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, just got a dhd from a friend, he was on stock Rom and his phone recently refused to boot up, when he turns it on it goes to operator splash screen and then to HTC logo but then restarts, it never gets any further, its just a constant cycle, I thought I may have been able to root and install a new Rom , I can get into recovery using volume and power but because I can't enable USB debugging I'm stuck, can anyone help me, I don't know what I can do with it, thanks guys

Are you S-OFF? Do you have a custom recovery installed? If so, since you can get into recovery, just flash a new ROM.

No, its not s off and its just the HTC recovery I can get into, I have tried recovery and factory reset and its still the same problem

Can you boot into bootloader?
Do you got htc drivers installed?
Do you got adb installed?
Can your computer find your phone while in bootloader?

I have HTC drivers, don't have adb, sorry but I don't know what you mean by bootloader ?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Bootloader is the same as HBoot. It's the interference you boot into when you boot with power + Volume down.

Yes, sorry, I can get into bootloader but its the stock HTC one ?

Have you tried running a RUU?

It's branded and I can't find a ruu with my operator that's more up to date, is there any way I can root it without turning the phone on and getting into settings ?

No. If you want to get some help, then start providing information...what carrier is your DHD branded for? Do you remember what Version of android you had?
I guess you will have to make a goldcard and then flash an unbranded RUU.

What rom are you using? Did you take the details before attempting to root?
You may need to flash an RUU as it sounds like something has gone wrong while rooting.
The more details the better, carrier/branded etc....

Do you have your rom version eg. 2.29.405......?
Does it have any provider branding/apps in the software?

my phone was unbranded, but my problem is not the rom, it is that my phone can't reboot from fastboot
I'm aware of that, but unless you are S-OFF, there is no way to flash a recovery image apart from using unrevoked as far as I know.
Personally, I would look at running the WWE RUU although this would wipe your phone (not sdcard though).
Your call I suppose. There maybe someone else around with other ideas.....

Alltel HTC Desire USB bricked and not rooted! HELP!

So a brother of mine is getting rid of his HTC Desire and giving it to me. Here's what's wrong.
It's an Alltel HTC Desire but he has a US Cellular ROM on it. From the looks of it I don't think it's rooted. If I plug it in through usb the phone charges fine but it will not do anything else. That would mean it's usb bricked right?
I really don't know what to do from here. I've been rooting and putting roms on phones since my HTC Touch Pro years ago, but this situation is kinda scary. Please help! :'(
EDIT: And yes I did do some searching, but I'm worried the non-stock ROM will mess this up.....

Make sure that you have v5.8.4.0 cwm recovery.
In recovery go to mounts and storage, then mount usb storage and connect usb cable to computer.

If it is all stock and you do not want to root or install custom recovery/ROM then your recourse is to contact HTC for advice/repair.
There is little to nothing that YOU as a user can do without custom recovery and ROM installation to correct flashing issues.

Is there anything i can do about it?
I don't mind rooting it or installing a custom recovery or ROM, but i don't remember unlocking the bootloader so my guess is i'm ****ed..

there is nothing you can do, send it to htc
Okay this is strange... Connected my phone to my laptop in a last resort to see if it would make any connection, started it up again and left it to be. After a minute or 1 my laptop said it saw a MTP USB-device connected so my hope was up.
I let it do it's thing for a minute or 5 and it continued to the quietly brilliant screen! After that it started up like normal and i'm up and running again:laugh: .
Thanks for the support guys!

And your bootloader is unlocked? Also, you're flashing the ROM zip from recovery first, then flashing the boot.img from fastboot, right?
Yeah bootloader is unlocked, and I might have done it the other way round I'll try that.

In that case I would suggest that you flash a RUU and see if that works. You will need to relock the bootloader for that.
Well going to give it another shot before I do your suggestion on the RUU, I'll let you no how it goes

When switching ROMs it is pretty much always necessary to clear the /data partition before booting the new ROM. I didn't see you mention that you'd done this anywhere (sorry if I missed it).
Yeah sorry I always wipe factory,cache ,dalvik I have a HTC one so I knew how to do it but i have it working now guys flashed zip before flashed boot.img funny enough I can do it either way on my HOX :? thanks for all your help guys much love (no homo) !
