Try flashing the 2.3 ruu in my sig. All your data will be lost, but at least the phone will be working.
Put the zip on the root of your sd-card, boot in bootloader (vol down+power button) then select yes when prompted.

Silly question may be.. So no need to connect to computer or need to be rooted? I'll try it today.. Thanks

No need.

I did as u said, but it shows radio_v2 failed=PU, AND nd lastly update failed..others like splash etc shows ok.. My hboot changed from 0.93 to 1.02.0001and still problem persist.. Now radio is 5.11.05.27, what happened? Now it's boot looping with HTC logo and 5vibrations every time.. Plz tell me how to solve it..

Ok...now we know why it was bootlooping in the first place. You have a radio brick. A radio brick is a kind a brick that we can't do anything about. Somehow, your radio got corrupted.
You will need to send it to a service.

But it's not boot looping before flashing that ruu.. I can't send it to service as it's bought in USA, he is using it in India.. Is there any alternative?

The only thing you could do is trying to flash the ruu a lot of times, hoping that it will eventually work.

Same ruu or anything else?? Does that ruu work for any radio or is it selective for my radio??

You could try other ruu's, but you'll need a goldcard if your phone is branded. Check out bortaks guide for other ruu's.
The 2.3 ruu is the only one that doesn't need a goldcard, cause it's not branded.

I saw a ruu with same radio number as mine.. And it's in wwe format.. Can I download it and get its ruu? I'll try ur ruu some more times..

[Q] Possible Brick, any help appreciated

Hi
Another stupid noob has bricked his phone.
My situation. Whilst trying to unroot and restore to original state for warranty purposes (earpiece speaker has died)
I have a Desire Z that will boot either into hboot and clockwork recovery but wont boot past HTC screen when I install or restore a backup.
I presume this is because the wrong hboot, radio etc is now installed with S-ON.
I have been trying to do this but get stuck because I have no access to terminal
This
Anyone with some ideas?
Cheers in advance
UPDATE:
Now boots directly into Clockwork recovery but wont boot passed.
Can you tell us what your hboot says.

Did you use gfree method?
Sent from my HTC Desire Z/G2 Using XDA Premium App
Yes I used Gfree originally.
I am trying to flash a PC10IMG.zip via the bootloader but it no loner seems to want to see the file on my sdcard. It did before, which is how I got into this mess in the first place.
I am trying to flash the correct one back over which has a more recent Hboot, radio etc I think.

I wonder why... So it still not reading it? Also does ADB read your phone? I don't know if ADB would work though because you don't have the ent-hboot. It seems like even so you have S-on your still rooted since you can still go to clockwork?
Sent from my HTC Desire Z/G2 Using XDA Premium App
yeah thats whats getting me. I can use adb when booted into the recovery but I am struggling to get anything to work.
Any thoughts on how to proceed, if any?
well my only idea is to try to see if you can flash through ADB

Try looking for a DZ RUU that is specific to your carrier. If you can't find one, you could make a goldcard and install a WWE RUU (see if you're still super CID first).
Format your sdcard and try to unroot your phone again. )

thanks for the replies, got it back up running sort of, got a t-mobile rom installed but still need to flash the correct hboot, recovery and rom for that matter

I Have the only Desire HD in this world that can't be touched.seriously

hello,
I own a DHD which is branded to a French telecom SFR. its already S-Off and running android 2.3.5 with software number 3.13. As i am writing now i have tried so many different methods to root, debrand and flash a custom rom but nothing happens.
I even tried AAHK , which promted me to download and i agreed by pressing "y" in the cmd. it went on to download the firmware for the downgrade. After the download it booted into the bootloader and nothing happend. The sd card wasnt check for anything. So i made some more research and it looks like i had to create a gold card. So i created the gold card ,placed the downloaded downgrade firmware (PD98IMG.zip) to the root of the gold card and booted into HBOOT. when i got into it , this was what happend.
SD Checking...
Loading...[PD98DIAG.ZIP]
No image!
Loading...[PD98DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PD98DIMG.zip]
Wrong image!
Loading...[PD98DIMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
this process took more than 30-40 mins. After, it just went back to HBOOT without doing nothing.i dont know what to do anymore because i have tried everything but its not working. Has anybody ever downgraded and rooted this type of DHD before.?? i am wondering if AAHK suports software no. 3.13.
SOmeone please help me on what to do.
I hope somebody can help you mate. Just out of curiosity, did it come stock with Gingerbread?

Grab a RUU, flash it in windows, once you're on a different firmware, try S-OFF and root and all those things...

I have a problem

Soooo. I've had my HTC desire (gsm) for about a year. I rooted it. Put new roms on it. Flashed it hundreds of times. But I got bored. So I thought is go back to stock HTC 2.3 sense.
Wrong.....
Now no matter what I try I can re-root it.
I've tried alpharevx.
I've tried apps.
I've tried fastboot.
I've tried hboot.
And a few other I can't even remember.
Sooooo. My question is this. How do I root a phone that doesn't want to be rooted and only wants to run stock 2.3
Any help greatly received.

Hmm revolutionary should work, as far as i know its the only 1 that can s-off hboot 1.02.0001
How r u using revolutionary? is ur phone booted up and usb bugging enabled? dont mean to offend u with those silly questions lol its just strange it dont work. Now saying that, maybe revolutionary does'nt work on all devices, i dont know. im only guessing. also i know that theres a few other programs that r supposed to do the job like SuperOneClick and there mite be one or 2 others but i really cant tell u if they work or not or if they cause problems, i really dont know.
Try unrEVOked_3.20…just 3.20!

I tried revolutionary from a clean install with usb debugging enabled. I've tried super one click
Universal androot.

And if I remember one more
Even the Htcdev boot unlocker.
Still nothing works.

Man, keep your advise to yourself... seriously.
via xda app
I did it in the same order as you are trying now. First got stock 2.3 and then wanted root.
I remember it was easy. I just googled for a how to and I don't even think it was on xda, just a random page. I had the same hboot, gsm.
With your hboot ver revolutionary is the only option. Period.
Revolutionary only gives SOFF and allows you to install recovery.
You have to flash the su zip seperately to get root - superuser
One simple thing to try would be to change the computer, install hboot drivers and try revolutionary again.
Hope this helps.

Yes, but keep the bag in the freezer first, or else water may form if there's hot air inside.
