[Q] No ROM, No Backup, but can boot into CWM Recovery. - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.
Hoping you can help me.
I rooted my DHD some time ago, with help from this forum, and was running the RCmix3D rom.
Well I have upgraded to an HTC One X, and a friend would like to buy my DHD, so. I thought I’d factory reset the phone.
Before I did that though I did a nandroid backup through CWM recovery.
After the nandroid backup, I rebooted into the ROM, factory reset the phone, however it then just booted through the White HTC screen into a black screen with the word ‘android’ in the middle.
Now, I didn’t panic, and I left the black screen for a while, but it didn’t change for ages.
So I pulled the battery, went back into CWM Recovery, and tried to restore, however, the restore didn’t take!
So I thought I’d just download another ROM, and flash that, but THAT hasn’t worked!!!
So I’m stuck without a backup and without a ROM,
I got the DHD on day of release so I guess it had Froyo on it!
Can I just download an RUU for this device and run that or are there additional steps that I would need to perform before that?
Thank you in advance.
Greg.

Greg, Factory reset only works when you are stock. As you were running a custom rom, you have just deleted the rom from your phone. You will need to flash a RUU to revert it to stock.
I don't actually know why you couldm´t flash a custom rom, but it should work as long as you are S-OFF.

Doh!
Cheers Brother.
The reason is that I'm not sure the new user would be ok with teh extra finctionality, and I'd worry they much it up (Much like I have done)
I still con't quite understand why it wouldnt flash a new ROM though
Ok.
When flashing an RUU, can I do that from the boot loader?
cheers for yor help.

Yes, you have two choices, or do it in the PD98IMG.zip way or flash it in fastboot. If you are S-OFF, you can flash any RUU, but I suggest and unbranded one. Don't flash a Froyo RUU or you will be in troubles.
On how to flash a RUU from fastboot, check the guide in my signature....:good:

Ok dude. I hear you.
Could you give a brief explanation on why the Froyo RUU would be bad?
Cheers brother.
Love your Avi.

If you are using a Gingerbread hboot and flash a froyo RUU then your hboot will work in super slow motion and might take half an hour to boot. And belive me fixing that is not easy nor fun...
Were you able to flash a ruu??

Hey dude.
Not tried yet, munching dinner and watching some Sons of Anarchy at the moment.
Will let you know ow how it goes though.

Hey dude.
Another few questions,
1) How do I know if I am using a GB hboot? Would a new hboot have been written when the GB OTA update came?
2) How can I tell whuch RUU is a GB RUU without the name being in the title of the RUU?
I.e. RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed.zip​
Thank you again.
Greg.

Oh, and I think I have found out why I can't flash a different ROM like ARHD, I'm using CWM recovery, the instructions for ARHD state that you are only to use EXT4 recovery.
Bum!

That shouldn't be the issue. Anyway, try flashing a Ruu And see what happens. I will find an unbranded one one that works for You. Try this one And report back.

Cheers dude.
Just downloaded it.
Do I need to rename the file to just "PD98IMG.zip" and drop the "-GB2" ?
Cheers.
Greg.

Yep.
I needed to rename it.
Flashing it now.
Cheers.
Greg.

Dude.
Thank you for all your help.
It's all up and running Stock, just running the OTA update.

I really don't understand in all of that, but I just went through a very long process of rooting my phone etc.
and one of the million things I stumbled upon was this time I flashed a rom using CWM and the rom was corrupted..
I was thankful that CWM had the option to connect the phone via usb storage, [hard drive thing, so you could transfer files from comp to dhd]
So I just downloaded the rom again and placed it on the phone and flashed it using CWM.
I guess it might help you since you have CWM [and if you have CWM I guess you're rooted?] so you might try flashing a non-stock rom.
But I'm not deep into this stuff and don't really know, so you can try but I'm not sure it'll work.

Help a brother out? :)

Basically, my memory card failed on me and it had my Nandroid backup saved to it. Now I don't have one .
Could anybody supply me with a stock Orange UK backup?
I would be eternally grateful.
Just in case my phone decides to give up on me.
Thanks guys.
Modaco has this along with many other stock ROMs and radios
You don't really need it if it is just the stock orange ROM.
If you phone goes wrong and you wanted to send it back under warranty, if it worked well enough to Nandroid restore chances are you can run the RUU which would also replace the recovery image.
If that doesn't work for you, Modaco has a whole heap of "stock" ROMs in update.zip format (see here).

Dave
Oh sweet, didn't realise that. I assumed the AmonRa recovery thing would stay on the phone. Am I right in thinking this would just be overwritten by the HTC one?

Yes when you run the stock RUU from the HTC website it completely wipes everything on your phone (including radio and recovery)

[Q] HTC Desire Rooting Problems,

Hi,
Firstly my stock rom is:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_H3G_UK_2.25.771.1_Radio_32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14_release_149217_signed.exe
locked to 3 in the UK
I tried to Root my phone yesterday using this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084
After completing step 3 rooting phone using unrevoked everything seemed fine but when i tried step 4: S-Off Procedure With Alpharev
it tells me my device is undetectable or doesnt exist. And in the recovery menu of the phone it tells me that misc and cache could not be found or mounted.
I tried to reflash the stock RUU but when i click next it tells me the battery is below 30% (its 100%) and wont let me flash. I did enable install from unkown sources and enabled USB Debugging.
Does anyone know what my next step is cause my goal is to unroot my phone and install a rom like Redux.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
If you need any additional info just ask.
Thanks,
I had trouble at that stage too, it just took my PC a few attempts to connect.
It might be worth just giving it a few more goes.
I also found it useful to install AmonRas recovery as a custom recovery with the unrevoked tool, and to also not install the recovery in alpharev.
Have you tried wiping the battery userdata in recovery before running the RUU?
Thank you so much, AmonRas recovery showed no dam errors like clockwork did, im about to attempt to s-off it now, il update this in a while about how it goes.
Hopefully it should be smooth sailing from here.
Thanks!
I found that alpharev refused to recognise my device while I remained on stock sense rom after rooting. Only when I flashed custom rom if choice (oxygen at the time) did it work.
You have to avoid roms using data2sd etc though, instructions at http://www.alpharev.com

So OP are things working? Which ROM did you decide on?

[Q] URGENT!!! Reverting back to 3UK Rom

I'm very sorry this is such a noobish question but i was wondering if i could get some help by the people who know what they're doing.
So far what i've done is the following
1- Unlock the bootloader
2- Install Clockwork mod recovery
3- Flash 1.28 firmware
4- Install custom rom (leedroid) + flash boot.img
5- Root phone
Now i've descovered my phone has a few issues and i am entitled to send it back for a replacement.
Could someone tell me the order of how i can undo all the above. I have a nandroid of the original rom. Do i flash that first and then go from there? I need it to be exactly the same as when i first bought it.
Links to guides would be great. Thank you for your help

Once i've got the nandroid backup done do i flash the stock recovery, then relock the bootloader?
So once thats done no one will be able to know anything has been done to it, correct?

They can still tell that you have unlocked the bootloader because it will say "RELOCKED" and not even flashing the RUU for the carrier of your phone will do anything because it will still say "RELOCKED"
Would that stop a UK company from exchanging my phone for hardware defects?

I am not sure. HTC reckons we void the warranty by unlocking the bootloader. But if you have bought it from a shop they tend to just turn the phone ON and look at the problem and they should swap it for another handset or give you a refund. Sales person normally don't get into the bootloader to check out anything. They more than likely have a look at the problem with the software or hardware defects. But if they decide to send it back to HTC then you might not get it replaced.
Ok,
Thanks for your help mate
Hope it gets replaced with one with no issues!
Also forgot to mention once you have restored your nandroid backup, flash the stock recovery and then relock the bootloader.
If you have a nandroid backup when you flashed custom recovery then restore the backup and relock the bootloader.
And if one happens to be the sort of complete fool that forgets the nandroid backup because they were too interested/ wrapped up in all the adb stuff to have remembered this what does one do with a 3 phone? Are there no 3 ruus in the wild at all? None listed on the file forum place.

I have to admit I am such a fool. But lucky for me my phone is unbranded and has the HK 1.26.708.2 ROM which is in the list so that saved my ass. But for 3UK you might have to wait a bit until someone uploads it. I'm pretty sure it will appear sometime just don't know when.
im in a similar situation apart from i installed ARHD rom and i do have a backup of stock rom from when i installed cwm but my problem is, i flash backup and then flashed stock recovery but when i lock the bootloader and reboot i get greeted by the 1st htc logo then the screen flashes and the same logo appears but under it is some red writing that says something about being a development build and then it boots its self into fastboot but then if i unlock bootloader again the phone boots backed up stock rom fine!?
mines getting picked up on tuesday but i suppose on a plus side a courier is dropping me a replacement and taking my old one away at the same time, so unless the courier starts booting into hboot i should be ok lol
Give me half an hour and I can upload it for you.

What's it supposed to be?
Ok guys, so today i flashed the nandroid backup but now i'm just stuck at the white HTC boot screen.
No idea what to do next?
Is it because i was on 1.28 firmware and restored down to a nandroid with 1.26? Is it because i haven't flashed stock recovery yet?
Really need help as i need this done before tomorrow UK time.
Thank You
bump.
I really need help now.
I have nothing on the root of SD card so i can't even flash a custom rom. What do i need to do to get my phone working?

Have a look at my video. You need to have stock recovery, locked bootloader before you can run the RUU. One more thing is you have to make sure that you are using the right RUU.

as you have mention above the link of root.zip,its of HTC One XL(non-tegra device)
if you have htc one xl then you are in wrong place..
He has the quad-core. The XL variant has no 1.73 hboot and 4.19.720 software number. So he is in the right place
Easiest way now is to restore the nandroid backup you probably didn't make before messing around with the superuser.zip !

You need to flash the boot.img via fastboot, make a full wipe in the recovery and install the CM.zip and the appropriate GAPPS......

Well you need a stock nandroid backup that has the same main version number 4.19.720 and restore it. As long as you don't have that you can't go back to stock. But there are custom roms based on pure stock looks. You can install that too.

You can't install anything like that via fastboot if phone is locked...you need to be unlocked and for the latest cm roms like cm 11 that recovery is too old... He can unlock too, flash a recovery make a nandroid backup without flashing another Rom and there is your backup

Other roms installs the same way as CM. Flash the boot.img make a full wipe and install the rom.zip....done
Here is the nandroid backup for HTC 038 4.19 - https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B3ipMMzpaJW4bGpMVTRNRHFpOUk/edit
But they're seperate files and you need to download them all and place them in the right folder.

i have flashed the android revolution hd rom. this rom is the perfect one, just the same as htc stock rom.you guys were really helpful.i would like to know many things about kernel and kernel flasher. what kernels actually does? i tried search the forum but couldn't find a simple post about it.
i like using android, and i wanna know most of it if i can.......thanks
Simple explanation, the kernel and hboot function sort of as a bios of a pc. It interacts with the software.
A kernel flasher....you don't need that if you flash the boot.img (kernel) straight from fastboot. The flasher does the same.
