[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 !

RUU Stock

Hi
I have accidentaly wiped system and sd card in CWM and cant mount via usb. I cannot find a stock HTC One X RUU and I had downloaded o2 RUU (would prefer carrier branded as want to return!!! although doesn't matter) but that was corrupted and downloaded off a chiness site that has stopped hosting it!
Please help me!
Doesnt matter if all you can find is a recovery that you can mount USB!! That would be great!!
Thank you very much guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you very much for all of your help! I have solved my issue.
I needed to download the stock o2 uk RUU and relock the bootloader and run the program in fast boot. I have just made my nandroid backup and planning to upload it so anyone else can use it! (it wont have my details on, just as if the os has been installed from scratch)
Steven

Please read before posting/flashing/wiping.
What is the CID of your device. You can only flash a stock RUU with matching CID.
So you need to download the correct RUU for your device.
All stock RUUs available are here

.
Keep thread on topic please

How do I find my CID?

If you would have spent 10 seconds looking in the Dev thread you would have found a list of all the available RUU's to download.
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543604)
Download your required RUU, boot into Fastboot-USB and run.
Next time be more careful and fully understand what you are doing before doing it otherwise you will end up with a £600 paperweight.

That is why I started this thread!!! I don't know which is the correct one!!! I started on o2 uk rom and then flashed android revolution!!!

Flash the one that says o2 UK then?
Though I also wonder. How do you match CID to the firmware package? When I try to get my CID in fastboot or w/e, it says no CID like i've read around here. Any thoughts?

i unlocked the bootloader so if the op did the same their CID will be "none" and therefore the RUU wont flash.

Okay, I guess i will have to wait until the clockwork recovery gets USB mount!

Sorry but if you just want to return to stock you can do
1. Restore you nandroid backup, flash stock recovery and then relock the bootloader.
OR
2. You can flash stock recovery, relock bootloader and then run the RUU that corresponds to your CID/region.

I am probably answering my own question my CID is H3G_001. There doesnt appear to a 3 mobile ruu at all. Any help here? Fortunately its not urgent but may be handy if/when they release the upgrade

how are you guys checking CID?
Using terminal emulator? do you need root?
I tried ADB shell command since the fastboot command doesn't work, and I get error:device not detected

CID getter from the market.

I dont know, sorry. I do know though that mine came originally with 02 uk rom and that CID will only work with the one rom that came originally with your phone. It may be different for unlocked devices.

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

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.

Cannot access recover mode

So I've been trying to root my dads old Desire for a while now, with no success - it is locked to o2 and I'm on Orange. I didn't really want to pay to unlock it, and rooting it would have been nice. I've done two phones before, so I figured it shouldn't be too bad. Eventually I discovered it was HBOOT 1.03, and this was the problem, so the solution was to backdate the software to an earlier version (the phone is still S-ON and I cannot get this thing to take ANYTHING)
I was trying to roll back from Froyo to 2.1.
The current problem is that now the phone will not boot. With a simple turn-on it just sits at the white HTC screen, or if you go into Hboot it tries (what I assume is) 'fastboot' and checks the PB99IMG.zip file on the SD card. If I say I don't want to update and go to 'recovery' it loads the screen with the exclamation mark in a triangle in it. The problem here is that pressing up+power does nothing. I've tried a quick press, and a long hold multiple times, and with no result except the first time. Unfortunately I didn't go through the proceedure the first time, assuming it'd work again. Damn!
If I start the update it says 'can not roll back the hboot version'. It also fails on the radio_v2.
Any help will be much appreciated, and if you need any details (I've probably missed something) please ask!
Thanks

If it fails with Radio_v2, then it's a radio brick, and that's the reason it won't boot. I'm afraid you can't do much, due to the hboot version.

The one step here I'm halted by is producing a Goldcard - the link to the website on the tool doesn't work any more (I've scoured t'internet, and that's the general consensus). Any idea where else I can input the CID to get a Goldcard Image?
Also how do I run the RUU on my computer? What file is it in the HTC Desire Android Upgrade folder I need to run? Afterall, there's no file titled 'RUU.exe'

Just realized that it wouldn't work, because you have to boot your phone for the downgrader tool.
You could try something else. Unlock your bootloader using the HTC Dev site :http://www.htcdev.com/bootloader, and then try installing a custom recovery.

So, that's on and working, but it's still locked to the carrier, o2. I've just tried 'HTC Desire unlock v0.9.5' but that didn't work (despite the program telling me it went flawlessly).
Any more suggestions?

HTC Desire (Bravo) help to S-Off!!!!

Hi everybody! I would like to start saying that i remember did this long time ago and now i really dont know how to proceed. hahahahaha
I was looking to change my MildWild Rom to the Beanstalk for HTC Desire (Bravo), however i found the threat where it explains how to do it, but im not able to pass the first step since i need to install a Jmcclue Hboot 250/5/182, but when i use the BP99IMG method for that Hboot, my phone does not take it since it is S-On right now...
My problem is that i really dont remember how to S-Off my phone based on the current Boot information:
*** UNLOCKED ***
BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.03.0003
MICROP-051d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
DEC 21 2011
If someone could help me with this or give me a Threat where i can have more detailed instructions i would really appreciate it! :good:

First you'll need to downgrade your HBOOT to a version compatible with Revolutionary.
Download and install the PB99IMG 2.3 RUU by following the instructions here. Once thats done your phone will be back to stock HTC Sense, and in the bootloader, the HBOOT version should have changed to 0.93.0001 or 1.02.0001.
Let me know once thats done, and I'll give you further instructions.

Ok so i downloaded the BP99IMG zip file and put it on the SD card root, but when i go into the bootloade the file is not installed, i dont get any prompt or anything like that, if i access the option fastboot it seems to be loading the BP99IMG file but once loaded it does nothing at all, just goes back to the bootloader screen with no further option, am i doing something wrong?

Sometimes you have to wait a while. Turn off the phone, then go back into the bootloader by holding volume down + power. Once its there, leave it for a couple of minutes and wait for a prompt to install the file.

Yes the name is ok, but I actually let the phone for some time and still not able to install the ZIP file i really dont understand what happens cause i reset my phone on bootlader and when i access it, shows that is searching the files on the Sd card, but it recognized the PB99IMG, a little vertical progress bar shows on the top right corner and when it finishes nothing else happens, just goes back to the bootloader screen...
Maybe i will need to actually S-off the phone before try anything else, am i right?

He already has unlocked bootloader, read first post, his bootloader details. So he'll need to relock his bootloader via fastboot command
fastboot oem lock
Then follow @Chromium instructions.

Thanks for taking your time to answer, sorry that i reply so late but had issues with my PC, so my question at this point is that you tell me to relock the bootloader... How do i do that, any other post reference for guidance?

Im guessing u have adb & fastboot set up on ur pc. So boot ur phone into fastboot (back button + power) plug in ur phone to pc then open fastboot command window and type
fastboot oem lock
That will relock ur bootloader and then the ruu should work.
