Tired of scouring through help videos and google searches... I hope someone on here can help me.
Rooted my HTC Desire via the unrevoked 3.2 method and used for a few days before deciding to S-OFF. Well i made a mistake and got stuck in a boot loop. Reflashed the RUU and i am back in business.
The issue is that i had to reinstall HTC Sync to reflash the RUU and then uninstall again so i could re-root, leaving the drivers in of course. I noticed that when i connect phone to PC via the same method as before, it should have had 'ANDROID 1.0' in device manager but this time it says MY HTC.
Can anyone explain what to do?
1) I can go ahead and root as before, this is just the new version of HTC Sync drivers.
2) Stay clear, the new drivers mean the bootloader is locked.
Which is it?????
I am a noob and although some members on here instructed me to use adb, i am out of my depth with that, even the guides available aren't simple enough for me.
Surely there must be an easy way out of this?
Any help would be much appreciated!
u can try uninstall the drivers and reinstall them back to be safe. also install the modified hboot drivers from unrevoked.
Thanks for your reply. Already tried to uninstall then reinstall the drivers. The issue is happening when I try to install the modified hboot driver, it says the driver is up to date but doesn't show as 'Android Bootloader Interface'.

When your Mobile is fully booted it will show My HTC.. and when you will boot into fastboot.. by volume down and power.. you will see 'Android Bootloader Interface'.
So that mean, YES you can root with unrevoked while you have 'MY HTC' in device manager with USB Debugging On.

Important correction: IS(!!!!), not was.
I'm trying to root my evo with the new release today of Revolutionary method. I've asked over and over and even sent PM to others who had the same problem but found a solution. And again NO HELP! so I wanted to ask here and see if anyone has a solution. Everything goes good until it gets to "waiting for fastboot". The phone reboots into recovery and fastboot usb is shown and it stays there. HELP PLEASE!!!!
Just a guess, but make sure to have the htc drivers installed. If you have the full htc sync installed you have to uninstall it. Hope this helps..
I do not have HTC sync installed I tried again and stuck on fastboot. I get a error message saying Android 1.0 not installed.

tried that just now with the phone off and plugged in (constant orange light) and with the phone on and plugged in(white screen only, no LEDs) and the hack kit just shows the message :
***ERROR ERROR ERROR***
Phone not plugged in
OR
Driver not installed
OR
USB Debugging not enabled.
***ERROR ERROR ERROR***
the pressing vol up button+power button also doesnt do anything, and the screen sticks to the white part for hours :/
I can't help much since my phone is "away" in the insurance company.
But have tried reflash of RUU

ok...if you press power + volume up you will never get to hboot...it's volume + power down.
To get the cid number, just boot in hboot, choose fastboot and plug the phone until you see fastboot usb in red. Then open a cmd in the pc and type fastboot getvar all. INFOcidnum is the information u need to get the ruu,

I have exactly the same problem.
I cannot run a RUU as my computer won't detect the phone is connected via USB.
Any ideas? I've literally spent the past 4 hours trying to fix it.

Done, but with no luck. The computer recognizes that the phone has been connected (it beeps and shows "Android Phone - Android Bootloader Interface") but I can't access it like a disk drive.
When I try to run the RUU I get an error saying it can't connect to the USB port...
** I un-installed, then re-installed HTC Sync and it picked the phone up and installed the drivers. So i'm doing the RUU at the moment and all seems to be running sweet. Its just finished and re-starting for the first time in a couple of hours! **
I'll try this rooting thing again eh!
Dont install HTC sync and disconnect ur computer from interner

While using the ace hack dont install HTC sync use the drivers given in "*\tools\windrivers" folder
Most importantly Do not connect your computer to the internet As the driver manager checks for the latest drivers in microsoft website.. I was stuck there for a long time but nothing happened..
when ur not connected to internet it will take the drivers of "Android 1" which is already installed by installing "HTCDriver3.0.0.007.exe" from "*\tools\windrivers" folder.
Comin back the boot screen. Only HTC was visible on the screen after rooting but started the Ace hack again which removed this problem
You'll have a more successful ROOT if you use Ubuntu or a Ubuntu Live CD as I assume your using Windows right ? I used Ubuntu and rooted first time with no problems.
Thanks very

i was in the exact same situation. All you have to do is connect your phone to your pc while its stuck on ''HTC'' boot screen. Wait for like a minute then use cmd and write 'adb reboot bootloader'. You should be able to fix it yourself from there
EDIT: doesnt work once bootloader is unlocked T_T im stuck on the white screen again...

I would but there is no way of me getting to bootloader or recovery unless I force it into them, which I cant because I unlocked bootloader...
So by the heading you guys must know I have messed up pretty badly.
Let me tell you first, I have done my research. Tried each and every thing possible (AFAIK) but it just wont boot into recovery.
FLASHBACK: ( I have Sff) (Volume button is broken).
1) Did a clean wipe ( Cache, Dalvik, System),
2) Installed Ignorance V4, ( I thought the kernel must be in the zip, so didnt flash the kernel)
3) Phone booted and stuck in splashscreen. ( Ignorance)
4) Connected it to Laptop via USB. Checked ADB. Device not found.
5) Switched off device, connected to laptop, checked ADB, Device not found.
6) Checked through device manager, and device manager recognizes the phone. All drivers are installed and updated. Windows Vista.
Now, what to do? Is there any way I can get into recovery or even Hboot so that I can flash kernel?.
Need help

Which recovery u have ??
If you have Cwm...Let ua battery drain completely and then put in on charge, it will boot into cwm directly. That's the only option.
If you have TWRP, lol..I'd Suggest you torepair your Vol Buttons

:good: what if i try that with mine?
Downloading HTC Sync Manager. Hope the updated drivers work. Called up my IT guy. He is giving me a quote on repairs tomorrow. Come to think of it, my one v was bound to end like this. Screen broken and shattered at 2 places, headphone jack socket gone, volume buttons gone.
Now upgrading to...........................wait for it............................ Nokia 1100.

Recently I have seen one interesting issue that might appear like solution to your problem. According to the description you may try turning off your phone and plugging in a charger. If you will have the same behaviour your phone should start into recovery mode. =)
Edited: Doh! TWRP...
You may try All-In-One-Kit as well. It has high level interface to run adb commands (including Boot into Recovery). Yeah yeah, I've seen your note that adb does not recognize your device, anyway...
Stupid answer from me....... Op are both your volume buttons broken?

Yes.
I have given it for repairs.I have decided not to sell or dispose it.
Its only sometime before I buy a moto g or xperia device. Waiting for my new credit card :fingers-crossed:
which phone would you suggest?
Vickrant.
If you are good with 16gb storage better buy Moto G if not there are a few options like Xperia M , Canvas series and all..
Sorry to be so late to the party, but in case other people get this issue. ADB will often work just after the kernel finishes loading, before it gets shut off. So between the htc boot screen and when the boot anim starts you have a window to commit abd commands. I often use this to save time when flashing kernels etc, notably because my WIP roms rarely make it past bootanim!

You sure about this?i am stuck there and i have cwm recovery installed,will it switch itself straight to recovery after the battery is dried up?i am using sony xperia c
Hi, I am new to custom ROMs install , recently got a Poco F3 and When installing I run into a problem, the pc doesnt recognize the device after I run the batch install for the device, when running the console, it gets stuck here (Ill add a picture), its been one hour like this, whta can I do? I am using the lastest version of Pixel Extended.
Also I can no longer get back into normal MIUI so IDK what to do.
Thanks for any help and sorry if this sounds like such a noob mistake but I am really lost right now
Edit:
SOLVED! IDK how, but It was a drivers issue, had to install It and uninstall it multiple times, sometimes the device manager would recognize it but the console script wouldn't, don't know really why it happened but hey I fixed it and managed to install custom ROMs, thanks for the help.
looks like a driver issue when its rebooting fastboot mode,check device manager,might just need to unplug cable and then plug back in to get it working again.
if that doesnt help try a different driver on the pc.

And which kind of driver should I get because in the MIUI unlock app, it says that the latest drivers are installed. Where could I get other drivers?

are u able to boot to recovery? at this step, your phone should boot to recovery, and enter fastboot from there
if able to enter recovery, select advanced > enter fastboot
the installation should continue. dont seem a like a driver issue to me

It DID get into recovery mode with the pixel experience logo in it but the script wouldn't move past after waiting for device(one time for like 2 hours)
