Hello,
I am new to this things, so please excuse me if my question is just stupid.
I am trying to do a root first time on my HTC desire HD. I think I have done it succesfully. Then I have installed clockwork mode, succesfully too. But then, when I install custom ROM my phone is unable to boot it. It stuck with HTC logo on display. I have tried few ROMs but unseccesfully.
I done it by combination of few different manuals. First UNLOCK through hcdev.com, then root and install clockwork mod through AAHK. When I turn on my phone to recovery menu, it says: UNLOCKED and S-ON. I think this is is the problem. I am trying to gogle it, for 3 days now, but I can't fix it. I can't find any manual how to do S-OFF without bootable phone.
I am trying for 3 days, and it's really bad idea to be without phone... Please HELP me!
Sorry for my mistakes.
You need to extract the boot.img from the ROM and fastboot flash it. The Ace Think Tank thread's guide (in DHD General forums) has instructions.

Hi, sorry in advance if I missed solution somewhere but I have tried searching for answers. Either nothing works or problem is slightly different to other reports.
My problem is that following upgrade to CM7 RC, I believe the wrong Google Apps was installed. In a nutshell, now my phone wont boot into Android. I tried booting into recovery, I get to the first screen, and select recovery, phone vibrates and then I get the HTC logo come up and at that point phone freezes with no response until I remove battery.
I have followed various guides re unbricking but to no avail. Issue seems to be that ADB cant identify my phone or no drivers are present to allow me to unbrick. I am running Windows 7 64bit and understand this could be an issue. Please point me to the latest guide in unbricking as there is heaps out there but some very old.
Thanks P
You could try an ruu then root again. Yes it is a pain but might be a faster fix than actually finding a thread. If you can't then look through the Android Development thread. There are a few guides in there somewhere and also look in the Desire Index thread as well

You have a newer Desire HD, there is an issue with your downgraded HBOOT (ENG S-OFF) & your newer hardware.
Follow the instructions from here --> http://paste.pocoo.org/show/495273/
This will solve your boot up times.
Credit for that information & fix is due to attn1

hey, if you have used htcdev tool to unlock your bootloader , you need to LOCK again the bootloader in the same way, and then use Advanced ACE Hack Kit (12062012) w/ENG Support, after using this program use the clockworkmod recovery to flash a custom rom (android revolution hd, miui, ics. etc)

Very little information to go on, but when people say unlocked boot loader. The issue is that flashing of roms is different and people fail to realize that.
After flashing a rom you have to flash the boot.img separately. Take the boot.img from what ever rom you want, put it in your fast boot folder. Boot phone into hboot. And run
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Can't stress enough to everyone to please research before you attempt anything on a phone. Heck I spent a month reading the threads learning about roms/flashing/troubleshooting before I attempted to root.(this was my first android device)
Have another problem;
why my device turned off by it self when usb/charger is unpluged?
its there any problem at my mini usb socket?
or its is like that when got problem with software?

Being new does not excuse you from using the search engine. That is part of what you agreed when you signed to XDA.
From today, the only way to root the device is to unlock the bootloader with HTCDEV and then flash CWM and SU. Hack Kit was retired 10 minutes ago.
I also tried to free my Desire HD with 2.3.5 last minute, but came too late.
Every thing sat up fine but downgrade ruu download failed naturally.
Can I also use UMT to simplify the process?
Can you give us more detail glevitan on the other method?
I've been trying to get the acekit to work by trying to source a PD98IMG-GB2 ROM but I am hitting a brick wall. I can't seem find the downgrade file anywhere.
Thanks
Look in his signature. There's a guide linked.
If I use HTC Dev/HTC Easy Unlock Tool to unlock (set S-OFF)...
Can I then follow the steps describes under 14 d) S-OFF no custom recovery?
Can I then flash an ROM out of CWM or do I need to get root first?
Sorry if I'm a bit stubborn.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31211732&postcount=396
I think this hits my request, but leaves me with an half locked bootloader, so I have to flash boot.img each time I flash an custom ROM. Meh.
Is that correct?

You can't get S-Off with HTCDEV. You can only unlock the bootloader. Then, you still need to flash a recovery. You don't need to root if you're installing a custom ROM from recovery. You will need to fastboot flash a boot.img if you flash a custom ROM.
more a self-note:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1528925
I think that will do it for me. But I would do a nandroid backup in recovery, then flash the boot.img and then install the rom.zip.
Is it possible to directly flash CWM with touch?
If u bought it before that guy said it retired 10 mins ago use AAHK

AAHK was never sold. It was free and freely supported until it was retired this morning.
Yes. Download the image file from www.clockworkmod.com and flash it in fastboot

When did you do this? AAHK is retired and therefore no longer supported as of this morning. What happened? What state was your phone in before you started? What did you do? What did AAHK say? What does the bootloader say now? How long does it take to get into the bootloader?

You were supposed to run it twice, once to downgrade and once to S-Off, not try to flash a ROM after just the downgrade...anyway. If your phone still works find just unlock the bootloader, since AAHK is retired.
