[Q] i think my Desire HD bricked ! please help !

Hi,
I was trying to root my phone with the guide that is on this forum, but then when i restarted my phone, it was stuck on the white "HTC" boot screen. Then i tried to do a "Factory Reset" in hboot and rebooted, and still stuck on the boot screen. I tried to put a PD98IMG.zip as it was prompted in hboot as "no image or wrong file", so i loaded PD98IMG.zip onto my SD card, and still not working. any suggestions ?
my phone is S-ON.

I guess your phone is branded ? If that's the case, you need to follow the tutorial for a goldcard.
Also, if your rom is 1.7x or 1.8x, you can't root it. You have to follow the downgrade tutorial 1st

Mine took 30 mins to boot once. You could try the ruu look in dev section, you just flash it from Windows, then start again. Was your she branded?

I was in the same situation, downgraded ROM and clockwork mod and did a restore and it works fine now

@Howling Wolf - I cannot get the CID for the SD card, because
in the 'adb shell' command, my command prompt says "error: device not found". But i want to know, can i still get the CID through another HTC desire phone ? and can i still update a stock rom with S-ON ? and how do i know if my phone is branded ?
I got my phone from Taiwan, a friend brought it over for me, and when i last checked it was on software version 1.37.921.1 .
@turbo_d - ill try that thnx

did you try installing the htc sync software then do adb devices

ye i did, i installed HTC sync to get the HTC drivers, but from what i noticed is that your phone needs to be "running" instead of being stuck on the white HTC boot screen or even the hboot doesnt pick up the device aswell >.<

Try going into bootloader, and then run adb from pc..

@SAPPH1RE - i tried that but thanks for the help !
ok i acquired my CID through linux, but now its telling me
main version is older !
update fail.
any suggiestions ? my current software version of the phone is 1.37, which stock RUU should i be using ?

If you are on 1.37 you should be fine to continue with getting s-off and such. You don't need to upgrade or downgrade your ROM until you achieve s-off. And then you should upgrade to a custom ROM such as LeeDroid.

did you get it working ?

I fixed mine a few weeks back by doing a full wipe and then loading a fresh ROM

Thing is, i cant get my phone to start up, so i need to flash a stock rom, so that i can get my phone started and then do S-OFF. But it keeps telling me "Main Version is older!"
ive tried 2 roms already, 1.32 and 1.72 RUU. What could be the problem ?

thnx problem solved, the gold card wasnt done properly, so i re did everything.
thnx for the help guys !

HTC Wildfire original condition

Hello!
I have a question.
Currently I have the phone Rooted and a custom Rom is installed. Now you have my phone for repair. I would like the phone back in the original condition (ie without root privileges and ClockworkMod menu) to bring.
I had then the original image, which I did for the root time, have re-played.
But unfortunately I get the menu ClockworkMod not go away.
The menu is still available.
Next try:
After I had been playing the original image, and I had started the cell phone was offered by T-Mobile is an update.
But unfortunately this update is not installed.
It aborts with an error message.
Now I have read that I should just flash the original RUU, Complete new. So I went to shipped rom on the side and I have the appropriate RUU for my phone charged. (RUU with the Tmobile UK).
But this I do not get installed.
The flash process is interrupted after a few minutes with the error 140 (wrong bootloader version).
Now my question:
How do I bekome out there, I have on my phone without the original T-Mobile software ClockworkMod, or do I uninstall ClockworkMod?)
Did any of you an idea?
Thank you!

Hello!
Thank you for the link, but my Handy is not S-off!
I'm at HBoot 0.80 and I have the Problem, that I can not flash the original RUU for my Wildfire....

Greets Hollux

what is your language?
is your phone branded?
you have breaked your recovery?
Maybe you have installed the bootloader driver from Unrevocked
Is yes,download and install htc syn from its official site and after the installation,unistall ONLY htc sync,not the drivers
my phone is unbranded and i used this
http://shipped-roms.com/download.ph...5.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_signed.exe
it will update your HBOOT to 1.01.00001 so you need s-off to flash recovery and custom rom

Hello!
I have my phone with Rooted Unrevoked3.
Then a Custom Rom installed. (DK ROM).
Original is the phone branded by T-Mobile Germany. It was originally Froyo still on the phone.
HTC Sync I have installed and then uninstalled so I only have the drivers on my computer.
For flash process:
I've taken on shipped-rom RUU following:
RUU_Buzz_TMO_UK_1.14.110.1_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.19_release_130442_signed
If I'm in HBOOT USB plug mode, the mobile is an Android Phone - Android detected bootloader interface.
However, so after the start of the RUU, the phone is not detected!
If I'm in the fast boot mode, the USB phone as a USB device is Android - My HTC detected.
Even after you start the RUU detected the phone and I can start the flash process.
However, it comes out after a minute the error 140 (bootloader error).
If I install the image, which I then made ​​by the original ROMs, will start after the one offered on Air update.
This, however, can not even install.
The flash process will start, but after a short time I see a picture in the phone with an Android males and a triangle. Then I am back in ClockworkMod menu ....
As I've written, I only want to install my phone with the original RUU from T-Mobile Germany and the menu should disappear ClockworkMod ...
Did any of you an idea?
What happens if I flash a non T-Mobile RUU ....?
I can try to flash another RUU and then later, my T-Mobile?
Please Answer, thank you
Greeting Hollux

You will have to downgrade MISC Partition, to allow "Downgrading" your ROM. (DK Custom ROM is based on 2.22.405.1, and you are trying to flash 1.10.114).
The Guide for AlphaRev X to Downgrade HBoot from 1.01.0002 to 1.01.0001 follows this same procedure, but, its for the WWE 2.22.405.1 ROM only.
But, you can follow this procedure, since you are on HBoot 0.80x
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
Obviously, the command version numbers will change in your case, and, you will need the TMO Rom.zip from that RUU.
NB - Disclaimer - It should work, but, it's a sensitive process, and I am not responsible for bricks.

[Q] I cant get nothing other than the black screen with warning triangles. S -on

Just from the day i bought my htc desire ,

thread.(because i cnt access recovery from bootloader).
Bt when rom is flashing it showed an error that this rom is not compatible.
Then phone showed that black screen with 4 warning triangles. From then no other screen apears.
(Flasing 2.3.3 again also didnt work)
Please tel me a way to flash a new shipped rom.??????????????????????

Please use search button or read before posting
Did you make a goldcard? and get a newest RUU from http://htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads

You can't flash anything with s-on. You need s-off before flashing.

Does S-Off void warranty?
Do i can fix this after S-OFF. Does it void warranty?

CAn i fix this issue or does my phone is bricked???

The issue
I tried to install back the 2.2 version as said in the link u mentioned. (From earlier i wasnt able to access recovery mode. i restarts when clicking it.) Taths y i followed those instryctions. Bt while on the update it showed an error. and from there on only the black screen iwth 4 triangles. Now i cant access the boot loader even. Can i fix this. Please help me?

please provide some more information, what hboot it had before you flashed RUU, is fastboot working? is it branded? what RUU did you flash as first? Did you make a goldcard before process?

You could try flashing this recovery file to your phone. I don't know if you can access recovery with S-on though. http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=recovery-RA-desire-v2.0.0.img
I assume your pc recognises your phone so you can flash files?
You could upload a video showing what your phone does so everyone can see.

what error did it give? I'm guessing you didn't bother reading the intro, and that you didn't have a goldcard.. hence you got yourself in this situation? make a goldcard, then run the RUU again.. this is simple business.. or you can try the riskier way of running the 2.3.3 RUU

ROM] Aurora v4.1 [Sense 3.0|Android 2.3.5]
i installed the ROM] Aurora v4.1 [Sense 3.0|Android 2.3.5] ...i am using stock hboot.

[Q] What is the best way to brick my dhd ?

my dhd is a year old and after downgrading for perm-root and s-off i got stuck in a boot loop. i tryed flashing recovery in fastboot but i get remote not allowed tryed installing pd98img.zip but i think my gold card failed because i get cid error damm branded phones. so i tryied running tmobile ruu with no luck stuck in boot loop. i cant find another tmobile ruu or ota's so im stuck.... so basicly phone is still in warranty and i need to brick it so i can send back for warranty repair without them knowing its been downgraded from gingerbread to froyo.... thanks in advance

not to brick but to repair:
have you done eng s-off too? seaech fot a thread in dev section, by jkoljo i think
if eng s-off applied, you should be able to flash recovery via fastboot
when u get that working, from recovery format all partitions except sdcard and flash new rom
edit: eng s-off tool
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=855403

i cant eng s-off because i cant enable usb debugging
ace pvt ship s-0ff rl thats my hboot

Ace_Gingerbread_S_hboot_0.85.0024
i think i need to flash this hboot ?

Did you quick format the sd card?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App

have you tried shipped-roms.com?
for a correct ruu

i thought you can run the s-off tool from hboot. i read the op and it doesnt say anything about that, so dont try. i think it shouldnt do any harm, but still, dont try that!

and there is one thing that doesnt make sense:
you say that you got stuck after downgrade, but later you say your hboot says s-off. did you use hack kit or sth? what happens if you try to go in recovery from hboot? also try wiping data from hboot
edit: wipe data is called factory reset in hbot

ive now lost fastboot and boot loader too all i got now is tmobile bootloop..
would htc's repair centre know that the device has been downgraded ?

probably. you are really not interested in fixing this yourself right?

I would not worry too much about them finding out you downgraded your device.
I sent my first one back (vibration motor failure) loaded with CM7. It came back with CM7.
The second time I sent it back (same issue as first) it had MrGaraks MIUI ROM (best IMO ) that came back factory reset and restored to 2.36.405.6
Unless you "agreed" to waiver your warranty with the Official HTC Bootloaded Unlock, then software modifications do not void your warranty. Search for jkoljo's thread confirming that too.
I'm going to close this, as you could quite easily "brick" your device with a 6 inch nail & a hammer. No need to create a thread.

S-ON Bricked on 2.26.401.3 Main Version is older

Hey guys,
my phone has had a bad update and i am stuck in the official boot loader with s-on and running 2.26.401.3
every zip i try and flash by the sd card is coming back with main version is older, is there any newer version than this i can use or a word around, i cant seem to get adb to work but fastboot does

What's your bootloader version? Have you tried RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed.exe?
If so, I guess you tried to update with OTA. It has an another numbering (19.26.401.3). That's why you get that message.
Try that:
Download:
http://fotadl.htc.com/OTA_Marvel_S_...2.14.401.1_release_261810uuzn2yxubjlshdle.zip
There is a firmware.zip file inside. Unpack it, change the name to PG76IMG.zip and try to flash.
If you will still get problems the only way is to unlock your bootloader with HTCDEV and change some numbers in the misc partition. There is program to that (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530864). But remember: you have to unlock your bootloader and flash the CWM recovery.

Thanks for the reply buddy, that doesn't seem to have worked, it went through and flashed everything fine but now I cant get it on at all, the screen seems to come on but it's just a dim black screen I can't get into hboot or flash from a zip now

2.26.401.3 comes with hboot 1.09.0099 which is unlockable. just go through the htcdev unlocking steps

Sorry for that. After flashing the phone boots in the recovery mode for a while. Check the forum - there is many threads about the black recovery screen. It's a issue of the new Wildfire S. Try to remove battery several times and enter hboot.

"it went through and flashed everything fine but now I cant get it on at all" same here ... did you managed to boot it ???
