FIXED NOW!
Need help.
I burned the new Kavana ROM. everything was working ok.
placed my microSD and the device didn't recognize it, so i rebooted.
upon reboot the device got stuck on the white HTC screen.
pulled battery
tried again, rebooted, past the HTC screen to the Windows Mobile welcome screen but freeze again. hard reboot didn't respond.
pulled battery, then turned back on. device didn't even turn on!
tried several times with/without battery hooked up to power , and with/without SIM and/or microSD (all possible combinations) and nothing.
had lunch
went back to it and the device magically booted it but after the white HTC screen i got a blue screen asking about error from last reboot. said yes to correct. rebooted went past white HTC and into Windows mobile welcome screen and froze again.
repeated the process several times and finally got to the blue screen again asking about error from last boot, this time said 'no' and device continued boot in a white screen without HTC logo and froze.
all hard reset attempts were unsuccessful (if i'm doing it right: hold two soft keys and then power button).
now the device boots to the white HTC screen and then is stuck.
what to do?
edit: got the hard reset to work and reconfigured my phone. i only noticed the black screen for a split second because my Dash has issue that it thinks that the green send button is being pressed all the time (anyone know how to fix that?).
Thanks
Find your original rom in sticky, go into bootloader and flash original rom, then flash to wm6.1.
have the same issue!!... did you fixed? the main problem is activesync is not running so how do i install another ROM?
Active sync doesnt have to be working aslong as u got ur s621 pluged in and u wait for a few seconds before starting the ROM it will work.
hi i haw such a problem. bricked my desire, and need anny suggestions :/

after i pushed it to my desire i rebooted it and everything seemed to be ok. device loaded but when came the screen to unlock it had some google errors and restarted to load screen and booted again to lock screen and so on and so on.
so i decided to wipe all data and reinstall "Official" Froyo HTC Sense ROM 1.0c. so i did it. everything seemed to be ok, i restarted my device, it started o load, loaded to boot screen, but thats all.
so i tryed to reinstal the same rom and radio :/ when i tryed to install radio device just shuted down.
after that my desire dount even loud up to boot screen, it only turns on to white screen with HTC letters on it, and restarts.
when i turn it with volume down it turns on to recovery. when i pick up recovery and pres power button to select it it turns to that screen with red !, but when i try to turn on recovery menu from my pc with recovery-windows.bat nothing happens :/
so thats my big problem, maybe anyone could help me with it? :/

Hi
Well, my desire rebooted yesterday because of overheating (as usual).
But this time it got stuck at the white screen with green HTC logo. Rebooted it 30 times but no progress.
I can get into Bootloader (0.93) but when i press RECOVERY, it reboots and the bootup screen is there again. Waited for one hour but nothing happened. It´s like i can´t use the RECOVERY function.
Tried to install the original froyo from Windows. Got to the step when the setupprogram reboots the phone into Bootloader, but then connection between my Desire and my PC is lost. The setup program only recognizes my Desire when i´m in FASTBOOT, as soon as i switch to bootloader the program can´t find the Desire.
Should i have the bootloader drivers installed on my PC or the HTC Sync drivers? or both? none of them?
And what´s wrong with my phone?
THANKS FOR YOUR ANSWERS....
got it working anyway, tried 3000 different ruu´s and the last of them worked.
3000 - lol!!
Hi,
I have a problem that when i shutdown my device ( i choose to power off ). after it shuts down it automatically goes into clockworkmod recovery (v3.0.0.6).
When i then choose power off, the device starts up again after about 15 seconds, back into recovery mode.
The device is plugged into the loader.
If i choose reboot system android loads. running latest leedroid 2.2.2
is there away to turn my device off ?
thanks,
regards, mark
It is a "feature" of clockworkmod. There is nothing you can do about it. Unplug your charger and the phone will stay off.
Thanks,
I think i did something stupid though..
i chose boot into recovery, and now my device won't boot anymore, is stuck at a nice white screen with HTC logo.
Do i have to reflash ?

Did you try a battery pull ? , take your battery out put in back in and turn the phone on .
unfortunately that didn't work.
What did work was, pull battery, startup with volume down
then do factory reset... this got me back into CWMod
Then did a restore, and my phone is booting again...
I do wonder though how i got myself into this predicament :S
I sold my old incredible to a kid. It sat for about 7months due to me upgrading to new phone. It had CM7 on it running fine when sold it. When he went to activate it, problems problems problems. I took it back him and told him I would fix it before paying me. I'm having troubles.
- No working recovery. can't get it to boot properly. I had the "5 vibrates of death" couple times.
- I'm trying a couple ruu's but when finished it will get to the lock screen, look normal, then reboot to lock screen then after a couple times will 5 vibrates then black screen.
1. I've tried [HOW-TO] Fix 5 vibrate and black screen (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1110865) I can seem to do the sdcard fix but not sure how to complete the usb fix or if that will even help me along. I can't "run terminal in anroid" because I can't get the Rom to boot up. All I can do is fastboot.... Compouter recognizes device.
2. I've tried multiple RUU's including PvilleComp's at http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=22
3. I'm using hboot .92 and radio is 2.15.10.07.07 s-off
I realize problems like these have been asked before, I've looked through them, uesd the search button, etc.... But I'm still really stuck and would like to fix this before reimbursing kid money.
Thanks

Have you tried reflashing cwm recovery thru hboot? Then wipe everything and flash a rom.
Yes I did try this. Got CMW re-installed, and when I tried to select any option in recovery just goes to picture of hat and hangs there. I press power button and goes back to CMW main menu.
I also tried a fix from your post:

Not sure where you got those instructions or files from, but there not for the incredible.
Heres what you do.
Download this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.06.605.3/PB31IMG.zip, and put it on the root of your sdcard in no folders.
Pull the battery, reinsert, and press vol down +power for 5 secs then wait for 5 mins not touching anything.
Press vol up and then wait for 20 minutes touching nothing. The phone will reboot once during the process, this is normal just let it be.
Press vol up, the phone should reboot and come up being able to see things and boot to the os normally.

This is where I've gotten the furthest. Got thru HTC quietly brilliant. Droid animation (red computerized looking stuff), "Droid" sound, then got to lock screen. Sit there for 5sec or so then would reboot, do the same thing over again and get to lock screen. Reboot again, then usually "5 vibes of death"
The kid does not have a phone other than this one I'm trying to fix, and they would really like it fixed and in their hands by Friday.
I just tried re-installing CMW again, and just hangs on white HTC screen, doesn't even make it to CMW menu. This is kicking my butt.
Fruitcake? Back to stock? That worked on my phone once..not sure if it was sim or not

He would like back to stock. S-off or S-on. Root or no root. Just working properly.

What button are you using to select things in recovery? Pressinh power on the main menu brings up the orange hat, press the trackball to select items power to go back.
I have to admit I was using the power button (used to my Rezound) but now I cannot even get CMW to work. Flashed it with the .zip in hboot/bootloader. Tried both restart and not restart after running recovery update. Both ways, phone will just hang at white HTC screen and not enter CMW anymore. Sometimes screen goes black then back to white screen or just stays on white screen indefinitely.
Could a bad battery be causing this? I'm trying 2 different ones. I'm not sure if either are bad, just trying to troubleshoot. Is there a way to check battery health on a non-bootable phone?
Any other suggestions to try? Thanks everyone for your help. I'm giving this phone just a few more hours of me fussing with before it gets retired.
UPDATE:
after battery sitting on charger all day while at work (10hrs or so), tried to boot up phone. went well. got to OS right away. I let it sit for 1/2hr to see if it would reboot or not. it stayed alive. i tested making a phone call: OK. I browsed the the XDA website for less than 1 minute, it then rebooted on me. white HTC screen then black. white HTC. then black. white HTC then rebooted fine. couple seconds later shuts off again. this time the same white HTC then black 3 times same as before. then instead of rebooting, got the 5 vibes of death.
the phone while working also asked me to update to lastest android 4.08.605.2
i'm not sure which RUU i ran to get this far, but must have been an earlier.
so i guess now i will attempt the 5 vibes fix, that's if i can get the phone booted for long enough to install terminal emulator from market and follow the steps.
any ideas guys? thanks in advance.
i did the sd card fix and attempted 5 vibes fix: http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=33
pulled the battery. put it back in. powered on the phone. once the first white "HTC Droid Incredible" screen came up, I plugged phone into PC. instead of one audible ding from computer saying device connected, i recieved 3 very quick dings from PC and phone shuts off. no charging light indicator. if i single press power button, unresponsive still.
now i unplug device from PC, remove battery, put battery back in, hoping for it to reboot normally. instead i get white HTC then black. white HTC then black screen with no boot up.
I believe so far I've tried the GB RUU from PvilleComp and the RUU provided by cmlusco in my post #3.
I guess now I'll try the Froyo RUU from PvilleComp's site: http://pvillecomp.com/?page_id=22
It could be your battery, but usually the phone will just turn off not reboot. 4.08.605.2 does not have a PB31IMG.zip so you have to use an ruu exe, but that requires you to be able to boot. You could try the froyo PB31IMG and hope it works. My only other sugestion would be to try and upgrade your hboot to the new 1.02, and then use the htcdev site to unlock it. Then fastboot flash cwm recovery and hope you can access it.
i upgraded the hboot. unlocked via htc site. reinstalled CMW and was working fine. flashed ota stock GB. same problems still. i left him long enough without a phone, so the fixer project is ended.
thank you all for your help, greatly appreciated

No problem. Sounds like it may be a hardware issue.
