I received an Incredible 2,
*****RELOCKED*******
VIVO_W XB SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT -0.98.0000
Radio- 1.09.01.0312
eMMC-boot
Jul 18 2011
All that it does is get stuck at the HTC screen.
Things that I have tried.
New Ruus
PG32IMG
The phone is recognized in fastboot,
ADB does not recognize the phone.
I have been going through the forum, and websites for the last 4 hours.
Factory Reset reboots the phone and gives me a security warning.
Recovery does the same.
I also get the USB Not recognized error once the phone comes on. I have installed the HTC drivers, I have also installed HTC Sync and have removed it.
Am I stressing and overlooking something simple? Or, do I need to take this phone out back and lay it to rest.
Thank you in advance

I don't own this phone but how did this happen? I'm assuming your rooted and unlocked if you got s recovery and stuff. And if your recovery works.. just Mount your SD card and transfer a ROM from your PC and flash one.. make sure you flash the kernel too. That or run the ruu

Thank for replying xxLemonxx
I was given this phone because because it is stuck in the bootloop. Phones come with their own recovery, this isn't a custom recovery. I have tried to run ruus, the error I get is Main version is older. I have also downloaded official stock roms with no luck.
When I hit recovery, the phone reboots back to the bootloader, the recovery never comes up.

Ohh so someone messed it up and just gave it to you for free? Or for you to repair? Either way I don't follow the droid inc2 but maybe im sure its rooted if its in a boot loop so try going into fast boot and go into cmd prompt and try to install a recovery. Look up how to install a recovery through CmD Prompt on the Pc. On my phone can't explain all of it. And then just transfer over a ROM probably cm9 and follow the instructions
Unless you want to go back to stock? Not sure if you know about ROMs and kernels?

Thats exactly what happened, it was given to me to me in this condition, and if I can fix it I will get paid for doing so.
Yes, I am familiar with roms, and kernels, I currently use an Evo 4g with Swagged out Stock X 2.0.9.8
Ive also rooted and flash cm7 on plenty of phones, I even have cm7 on my HP Touchpad.
I can't for the life of me figure this out. It has me highly intrigued. I am known for stressing out and overlooking minor small steps, so I wanted get some input from the community.
I currently have fastboot open, I am not entirely familiar with the Incredible 2, but normal case S-on = none rooted from my experience.
it was devunlocked then relocked i believe, from the error message i believe you are not flashing the right ruu, you are trying to flash an older one, you need the newest one, it was released a few months ago if i recall correctly and it was no big update but thats the one you need, search for it and try it it should work. if you are s on you cant flash a older ruu than whats already on it

Your radio is .0312, so you won't be able to flash an RUU, they're all older. Can you recognize it in fastboot mode? Try unlocking again with HTCdev, then flashing a custom recovery and ROM.

Hboot .98 isn't compatible with revolutionary, only .97 is, but that doesn't make a difference anyways because you can't run revolutionary if you can't boot the phone.

Agreed! With the bootlaoder now unlocked, what are the steps to rooting this beast? Do we still need to downgrade? Please pardon my noobness.
You wouldn't need to downgrade, I do know that. But as far as the rest, Idk. I did mine with revolutionary a while back before the 2.3.4 update, so I've been kicking ever since.

I would see if you can install superuser from the market.
EDIT: I would also see if you can install CWM and ROM manager. If all those install ok you should be able to load a custom ROM.

You do not have to downgrade if you unlocked. You should be able to install a new recovery image like Clockwork.

When you flash a custom ROM from CWM on an unlocked HBOOT, you then need to manually extract the boot.img from the custom ROM zip file and manually flash it in Fastboot mode using the command
Fastboot flash boot [path to the boot.img file]
This has been documented multiple times in this forum.

Yes in your case you will need to relock the bootloader in order to flash the RUU/PG32IMG.zip file. You cannot flash a RUU on an unlocked bootloader.
I'm guessing you guys have something other than .98 hboot? I'll find out soon when my wifes replacement comes in but I was not intending to use the HTC unlocker if I didn't have to. I was planning to try the tool attn1 has posted in the dev section unless the hboot changed with the ota.

Good to hear kinda thought it was. I'll be using the method attn1 has posted then. I don't trust the unlock method through HTC for one main reason which is this... Unlocking bootloader and rooting voids warranty as we all know. So what happens when HTC knows your bootloader was unlocked because you used their tool and they have the serial number?

The phone gets stuck at the logo and i cannot access it.It has recovery installed but on the bootloader is says s-on.
The stats are :
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
Is it possible to recover the phone?
PS. i have already made a gold card for my htc magic,can it be used on the dhd or a new one is required?
Well, can you describe what you did for it to get stuck there?

The phone is not mine, so i don't know the exact things that were done on the phone but here is some info.
My friend had 2.3.5 gingebread with sense 3.0 and downgraded to 2.3.3 with sense 2.1 .He used the advanced ace hack tool for all this.it said root , s-off and then rebooted and then it stayed at the htc logo from then.
Reboot the phone into recovery (battery pull, hold volume up + power). Then mount the sd card from CWM & copy a ROM over. Do a full wipe (data, cache, Dalvik) and install the ROM, you should be able to get it working again

Np mate.
But if you look at the op he wrote down the stats and it says s-on. Unless Im mistaken it should be s-off. However, the hboot version seems to be right.

That is why u are stuck...you are still S-ON...now you know that it is always better to check before doing something.
Anyway, you are not bricked, half bricked, soft bricked or anything bricked at all..you are just stuck.
You have two choices:
If you didn't factory reset the phone (that will erase the usb drivers from it) you can just plug the phone from the splash screen and run the hack kit to have the job done
Find a RUU for your phone, flash it and when the device is fully functional then re run the Hack Kit
Both will let you with a fully working phone. I would choose the second one just to make sure that everything is working...hope it helps.
i wasn't the one that used the tool so no drivers are installed on my computer...it was also factory reset.
Where can i find a RUU for the dhd?

Hi let me start off saying ive been on forum for a while so im not a noob with research or reading.
my problem is im now one of the group who are having infinite bootloop (htc white splash screen to black blankness back to splash screen. my phone was rooted by unrevoked method, soff hboot 2.18 radio 2.15.00.12.19.
steps I've tried:
taking out battery and replacing
hboot into recovery. usually takes me out of bootloop.
redoing smelkus recovery which allowed me to get to recovery for 5 seconds then back to bootloop.
then i tried 4.67 RUU for my radio version. 1st time i ran it the only thing changed was my phone is locked however its still s-off? I've tried RUU 3x each time program says successful but still bootloop and still soff.
does anyone see a step i missed? have any suggestions? I've read on this forum and a few others about the bootloop headache. would returning to soff then unrooting work? or flashing to different radio and RUU version?
thanks in advance

*Steps into the fray*
You said in the op that you tried flashing an ruu based on your radio; the RUU you need to flash needs to correspond to you hboot version. I think you should re-examine that step and make sure you flashed the correct ruu to begin with.

I would strongly recommend you NOT update to the 2.18 bootloader...re-rooting after that is a pain, and not worth the headache. 2.10 is nice and simple.
ok but i did upgrade to 2.18 months ago after rooting and getting s-off. unfortunately my sd card got wiped so im having worst time finding 2.18 thru my searching. will redo recovery cuz pushing or trying to push thru adb didn't work last night.

I ran a zip file that was supposed to set super user, and now I am stuck at the main screen. I am using revolutionmod and it won't get past this screen. Any and all help is appreciated. Thanks.
Need some info. Are you s-off or htcdev unlock or just stock? What did you flash it in? Adb or recovery?

If you are using revolutionary to root it does everything for you so there would be no need to run an extra su zip. From what you are saying it sounds like you are trying to root.
What is your hboot and what Rom are you running? If you are on stock android unrooted 2.3.4 then you will need to downgrade so you will be able to use revolutionary correctly.
Also do NOT use the HTC unlock for the bootloader. You will not be s-off and will regret it.

Thanks for the replies guys. I was gone all day yesterday and figured what the issue was. I forgot to put the updated radio on my SD and then update it. It fixed it and now I'm running Liquid Gingerbread 3.2
Thanks again for the help guys!

Stuck on HTC screen
First I would like to apologize if this is the wrong way to do this as this is my first post as a new member. Please let me know the correct protocal if this is wrong.
I unlocked using HTC bootloader unlock
I rooted Android 2.3.4 using Superoneclick
Deleted Verizon bloatware
I have/had CWM v5.0.2.0-vivow and ROM Manager
Tried to flash custom ROM directly from Rom Manager
Everything seemed like it went well but froze on white HTC screen in reboot
Tried to flash MIUI with CWM and it successfully flashed but stuck on same HTC screen
Tried to restore
Tried to do Factory Data Reset (wiped everything)
Tried the IMG.zip trick and bootloader doesn't read it. (not sure if I have the right ones I need for 2.3.4)
Boots into bootloader and CWM fine but can't get past the HTC screen
Please help or direct me to someone that can so I can SIM unlock for my GF. She has to use a crap phone right now.
I appreciate your time and any effort
1. Htcdev unlock isn't full s off so flashing stuff is more complicated.
2. Name it to PG32IMG.zip
3. You'll get faster replies of you make your own question thread

It's htcdev unlocked
I used ROM manager to download and flash
Then when it froze I tried using CWM to flash MIUI
It said it was successful but still stuck on HTC screen
Try downloading a stock RUU and name it to PG32IMG.zip and put it in the root of your SD card and boot into hboot. Then I would personally suggest going for full s off because flashing ROMs is 10 times easier. But if not, after reverting to stock re flash any ROM you want through whatever process you have to for htcdev unlock
