[Q] desire hd not booting after unlocking bootloader - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have spent the last week trying to solve my problem. Basically I tried to unlock the bootloader on my HTC desire HD using the instructions supplied by HTCDEV. Something happened during the unlocking process and now I have an unlocked bootloader and a phone that doesnt boot. The unlocking process didnt go through as I didnt get to the part where I have to work with the token. However, if I boot into bootloader, it shows that it is unlocked and s-on. I can get to the fastboot menu and the phone only boots to the HTC screen.
I have followed the instructions from the many posts in this forum without any luck. I cant seem to be able to flash anything through fastboot. I keep getting errors such signature failed error 132 and error 131. I cant access recovery. It gives out errors whenever i try to access it. ADB doesnt work. The device doesnt get picked up in windows. I tried flashing recovery without any luck. The CID is HTC_612. The firmware version is 1.31.405.6.
I tried to use an RUU but I always get the error that the RUU that i am using is not the one for my rom or that the signature verification is wrong.
Any advice?
Thanks

Damn. If you had S-OFF you could have flashed a recovery and it would have been easier for you. Post in the thread linked in my signature (Ace Think Tank) and you'll hopefully get some help from someone (most likely Glevitan)

Stuck at bootloader, can't access recovery

After flashing cm7r2 hboot in order to flash a new rom I got stuck at bootloader and lost access to recovery... I flashed hboot through fastboot, it got done without obvious errors... So I tried flashing a new recovery but I end up every time in the same situation... It just hangs on why so serious screen after vibrating for more than 5 times... I tried flashing differerent hboots, recoveries but that doesn't solve anything... I'm not sure if this is any clue, I tried flashing radio and I get updating error in fastboot...
In the end I tried flashing a ruu (RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed) but I can't go through with it because I'm not in Android or whatever, it says error 170... Maybe if someone can tell me how to get around that ruu's android check I could finish ruu install...
Any help is welcome
I have the same problem, stuck on the white screen with htc logo in it and can't access recovery, tried creating a gold card and ran a RUU exe file, however I always get a customer id error. Hoping someone here can help us both. :-/
@OP boot into fastboot (turn off, hold back & power) and then use the RUU.
@ericbangug your goldcard evidently doesn't work - try again or try using a different SD-Card
To you both. Try read through my troubleshooting guide maybe you'll find some help there if you're still stuck
Thanks for replies and link to your very extensive thread... I'm not through reading it, so maybe i missed something that can be helpful... In the mean time I had a very busy afternoon trying many RUUs. None of them worked except the latest one, the infamous gingerbread one... But not even that one worked fully... After multiple attempts I'm stuck now again on bootloader, and RUU install is incomplete... It fails at radio flash (it says fail-pu) and partition update fails ergo the whole update fails... Unfortunate thing is that the device is not S-OFF anymore... So if someone has some idea how to finish RUU update in some other way please point me in the right direction...
since it's failed on radio you might be totally screwed. Using gingerbread one was so stupid. Should've just made a goldcard and used a 2.2 WWE RUU
Yeah, well since none of the other RUU (tried many versions both wee and branded) installations didn't complete with goldcards (i tried with multiple sdcards) I tried with the gingerbread one and when that one failed I knew I'd have to send phone to support service... hope they will find some solution... I'm still very confused with situation because I'm not completely sure what went wrong... I presume that partition went to hell... :/
Anyways thanks for feedback

error 130: Bootloader Error

Hi all,
I'm new with the HTC (S-On).
I want to unlock the phone, but get the wrong version of the ROM.
So, here is what I already done:
1. Install the ROM RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.2_Radio_47.23a.35.3035H_7.53.39.03M_release_225747_signed.exe. And when I search the RUU to unlock it, I get the version 401.3.
2. Since I just see the 401.3, I installed this ROM RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe.
3. Well, it's totally wrong, because the last RUU on the HTC Dev is 2.13.401.3. So I install the correct one RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.3_Radio_47.23c.35.3037_7.54.39.28M_release_236989_signed.exe, but I get the error.
:crying:
Error 130: (I forget the error, it said about bootloader error).
Please help.
Thankyou

that's the error. I need to downgrade it. Found a solution here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445867), but it also failed.
I want to try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952&highlight=downgrade, but it says I need to flash the CWM first. How I supposed to be able flash it when my phone still on locked state?

[Q] Stuck at HTC logo...

Tried to go from S-ON to S-OFF but it failed while updating phone with firmware.zip. Cmd said it was done but phone showed no activity. Rebooted phone and its stuck at HTC logo. Found a way to boot to bootloader but instead of going straight to recovery to restore what I had, I first re unlocked bootloader. Now im stuck at HTC logo with no way to get to bootloader (volume down key not working). Im not a complete noob, just new to this phone. Have tried to use adb to boot into bootloader and recovery but it is not being found by my pc. Is there any way of forcing phone into bootloader? I would appreciate any help given
EDIT : FIXED

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2221039 used this manual guide but once I flashed the firmware.zip it did not complete. so i rebooted and then unlocked bootloader hoping that i could carry on with the error. turns out firmware.zip actually didn't get pushed to the phone completely and i'm not at S-OFF and phone wont boot

S-On, Re-Lock, Recovery doesn't work, no ROM HELP Please?!

Hey guys i've checked the similar threads for answers before posting and was wondering if someone can help me with the similar problem.
I was rooted with s-on and tried to revert back to stock, so relocked the bootloader and now i get an error message and can't unlock the booatloader again.
Error message reads this:
"Security checking failed NOT_FIND_SMART IO
FILE /mnt/media_rw/ext_sd/OPJAIMG.zip
File NOT FOUND
I've tried everything that i could think of in FASTBOOT,
I can't get into custom recovery, can't rebootRUU because just sticks at HTC splash screen, every time i try to unlock the bootloader i get as far as the yes or no part but then it fails to unlock in download mode and won't even do it in the normal fastboot mode.
I've tried on both mac and windows and nothing works apart from getvar all and fastboot devices, i have a memory card of 32gb and and a adaptor i can plug into my laptop if that helps?
If there is any more information that i am missing, can you please let me know, i really want to get this phone sorted without having to pay to get it sorted from htc.
Thanks
Travis

If adb is okay then try flashing TWRP and go from there if successful. Have a read of my post here.

Hi I've tried to flash in fastboot as the device won't boot so I could use adb. I've relocked the bootloader as I was about to go back to stock. The only process I haven't done yet that I can think of is running the ruu.exe on my computer, but I'm having trouble finding the ruu for Europe as all the links I try are either broken or they say the file doesn't exist anymore.
Is it possible to flash a ruu through fastboot while on relocked bootloader.
Also I've tried to OEM unlock the bootloader but that doesn't work either.
Thanks for your reply, much appreciated.

M8 stuck in bootloop, adb not detecting phone. Flashing RUU with SD card gets error.

Right, so I wanted to install an OTA update on my rooted EE HTC M8. I followed this guide: "Unbrick/Unroot/Restore HTC One M8 to Stock 4.4.4!" on youtube (won't let me post links yet) and after flashing back to a stock recovery and unrooting the phone through SuperSU I attempted to install the OTA update.
I don't know if I did something wrong or the guide just sucked, but now it gets stuck on the boot screen every time. I can still access the bootloader and get into the stock recovery, but wiping cache/system restore doesn't help, I can't flash anything through adb as it doesn't detect my device and trying any commands just hangs on 'waiting on device'. My only option seems to be flashing an 0P6BIMG.zip from the bootloader by putting it on my SD card, but I can't seem to find a RUU that will work with my ORANG001 CID or 4.19.61.3 OS.
I tried a few when I didn't know RUUs were location/carrier specific and it would load the image fine then reboot but still get stuck on boot screen, and I tried this RUU: "0P6BIMG_M8_UL_L50_SENSE60_MR_HTC_Europe_4.16.401. 10_Radio_1.25.214500021.06G_20.68.4196t.01_F_relea se_417809_signed" but I just get a 'Device halted due to Large Image update fail!' error.
I can't find any advice online specific to my issue, and my tech savvy mate who's also owned an m8 isn't available to help out at the moment, so I thought someone on here might be able to help with my situation. I'm going to take it into an EE store tomorrow but I don't know if they will be able to help.
