Hello everyone, I made a mistake (I am a big noob) and I don't know how to fix it.
I wanted to have fresh phone (real factory reset) to back-up and start over, so in recovery mode (interim one from paul) I wiped data, cache partition and I also formated cache,data, sdcard and system.
Now, I am stuck on htc quietly brilliant screen, I have access to hboot, recovery etc. I have been looking for a solution for 2 days without succes, I am sad.
Can someone help please ? thanks guys.
You wiped the system so there is no android on there!

The part you did wrong: It's true that you wipe (dalvik) cache and data before flashing a custom rom. That will perform a factory reset. Wiping system means deleting android itself, as stated before. That's what you did wrong.
Now, we can't know why you wanted to start all over again, but assuming you already flashed a custom recovery, you wanted to install a custom rom. Just go ahaed and do so, your problem will be fixed.
thanks, but I can't because this custom recovery doesn't allow me to mount usb and i have no rom on my sd card

That's not actually a problem. I assume you aleady have the android SDK set up, if you don't, please use the search function or google. try the following command while in the platform-tools folder:
adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
or for linux/mac:
sudo ./adb push path/to/custom/rom /sdcard
This will copy the file to the root of your sdcard, so you can flash it. Good luck!
P.S. there's a thanks button, too

That wont work as ADB does not work on any of the custom recoveries at the moment. Im stuck in the same situtation at the mo and as phone is branded cant get the RUU to reflash so just playing the waiting game until either ADB/USB mount available in recovery or S-Off available.

Same problem here! I unfortunatly erase everything from my one x and i can't restore anything!! How can i solve it?? My device is unlocked but stay in s-on mode! Why? From fastboot i can't flash anything! Help!!
Hello folks, problem solved by following leejames instructions :
flash stock recovery
relock bootloader
use ruu
I'm so happy. Thanks.
Mee too!! Thanks a lot!! I'm very very very very very very very very very very very very very very happy!!
1 flash stock recovery
2 relock bootloader
3 use ruu
It works fine!!
I do exactly the same thing , but half way through the RUU process it gives me an error saying i need the correct RUU. anyone can help ?
All you have to do is grab an RUU, run it. now on your pc search for %temp%in there locate ROM.zip. Extract the boot.img and system.img. and push them thru fastboot
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot_signed.img
Code:
fastboot flash system system.img
Code:
adb reboot
i did that , but i get this error:

I've tried renaming it to PG32IMG.zip, but it throws an error stating "wrong zipped image" or something of that sort.

Both don't work for me, any ideas?
You would be better off getting s-off. Less of a pita.
You gotta pull the kernel and flash it in hboot seperately, you probably missed this step which is why nothing is working. I'm not completely familiar with the process because I am soff but you should be able to find it on here

I tried putting an incredible 2 ROM (Viper) and since then it won't fully boot, it gets stuck forever on the green HTC logo on the white background.
I can get to the bootloader, and tried reflashing the same or other downloaded ROMs (all meant for the HTC incredible 2). Without much luck.
The original flashing process was not interrupted. I did a lot of googling and reading (but missed the S-ON/S-OFF part originally), and have tried many different ways to get out of this without luck.
3rd party ROM will flash and complete the process (but still won't boot), Verizon ROMs will give me an error (cannot open flash, bad). I did check the md5 checksums on ALL the files I used, and tried flashing from adb to no avail.
Before anyone asks, Yes I do clear the data, cache and Dalvik cache before flashing. I am at a loss of what to try next, short of finding someone reputable online to do it for a fee.
Thanks,

1st recommendation: go s-off
2nd recommendation: flash the boot img from the rom in fastboot...I don't know the exact process because I am s-off, but it is discussed in many of the development threads, so now you know what terms to search for at least.

Thank you for your reply.
Going S-OFF: I tired, most guides online will show you how to do by going to the OS first (and enabling USB debug). The only one I found from Revolutionary involved doing it from the adb. When I boot into ClockwrkMod, I can run adb just fine (doing adb devices returns the correct S/N amongst other things), but revolutionary tool complains it can't find the device.
I will google again your second recommendation.

If you are dev unlock, you need to pull the boot.img from the rom zip and fastboot it in hboot
The process will be the same for any rom as long as you are dev unlocked.

I'm glad you got it going. You'll probably want to remember that method since you'll have to do it any time you flash a rom.

Since I posted that message, I had to put back the Verizon stock ROM, so I can SIM unlock the phone (apparently you cannot use the unlock code with a 'cooked' ROM, something I didn't know), and while doing that, HBOOT got downgraded to 0.97, which allowed me to S-OFF the phone with revolutionary. I got the phone SIM unlocked and put back the Viper ROM on it.
In summary, learning from my mistakes, and if I am not mistaken:
1. If you plan to SIM unlock the phone, do it while it is still on stock firmware, it will save you a lot of time and headaches.
2. If you are unlocking the boot loader, S-OFF the phone as well (and put Clockworkmod on it as well), it would make life a lot easier.
3. Then you can go an experiment with ROMs....
gtdtm: Thank you again for your help and patience, and most importantly for keeping me going, as I was about to give up on this phone.

No problem. Next challenge: Put TWRP on it instead of Clockwork.
Hello,
Im having reallly big problem with my Desire HD device and unfortunately,I realize this is only my fault and inadvertence. Im hoping that someone will help me with my problem...
First of all, I've had stock 2.3.5 on my device and every possible blockade. I've used Downgrade_v2 files (with adb and Gingerbreak and 1.32 stock android) but it wasn't working as it supossed to do. I've found nice tool to unblock DHD, called EasyAceRootTool. Everything went OK, new H-Boot was uploaded, unblock process went smoothly, Revovery Touch was uploaded to DHD as well, Superuser was installed too.
And at this level I've hurried too much, because I've installed by recovery new rom on Android 4.0.4 , this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839004
And of course... I know now iVe forgot to make S-OFF, android doesn't start, nothing happens at all....
My Hboot now says :

2)Install RUU, It says that there is a problem with Hboot and i need to wait for upgrade
3)Install PD98IMG.zip (pulled out from stock RUU) by recovery, it says that this image is "bad"
4)Restore backed up adnroid from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920876&highlight=hboot, from section "Install stock Vodafone ROM", but it didn't helped as well, it says MD5 checksum failed...

Wait, no. Flash the ROM from recovery. You can't flash zips like that in fastboot. You can flash ROM images, but it makes more sense for you to get a recovery and flash zips instead.
If you don't have a recovery, first you need to install one. If you have a rooted ROM, you can install a recovery from apps: ROM Manager for ClockworkMod, 4ext Updater apk (from 4ext's website) for 4ext, and GooManager for TWRP. If you don't, download a recovery.img and flash it from fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
.
If you do, just go straight to flashing the zip from recovery. Then,
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

OK, first of all, I'm having recovery, 5.8.7.2 Touch version that was installed with EasyAceRootTool.
I can't install any .apk, because I have now installed 4.0.4 rom, and because of S-ON, it will not start. I was trying to install few roms from recovery of course (Stock versions downloaded from xda, 1.32 versions and 2.3.5.), but every time I am doing this, revovery give me a error "installation aborted (bad)" it's from a PD98IMG zip downloaded from xda and rom.zip pulled out from "RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed"

What are you trying to do?? If you have an unlocked bootloader a RUU will never flash. Besides, being S-ON requires the specific RUU for your device.
If you have CWM and an unlocked bootloader, you can flash any custom rom in recovery but need to flash boot.img after flashing the rom.
You can't flash apks in recovery, only zips. Then fastboot flash the boot.img.

Ok, I was trying to put this device on feet, because it wasn't load any ROM I was flashing. There's a lot of tools and tutorials that I was reading before flashing DHD on xda and other forums. I was convinced, that I need S-OFF to use custom ROM. Few minutes a go I flashed Sabsa-Prime ROM by Recovery, then i searched for boot.img in Sabsa_Prime_v16.0_By_AlirezaB.zip, flashed it in fastboot, anddddd tadaaam...Everythings working perfectly
Thank You gyus, I really appreciate your help !! I was really stuck on this device...
Best Regards !
I need help...NOOB!!!

Hello,
Im having reallly big problem with my Desire HD device and unfortunately,I realize this is only my fault and inadvertence. Im hoping that someone will help me with my problem...
First of all, I've had stock 2.3.5 on my device and every possible blockade. I've used Downgrade_v2 files (with adb and Gingerbreak and 1.32 stock android) but it wasn't working as it supossed to do. I've found nice tool to unblock DHD, called EasyAceRootTool. Everything went OK, new H-Boot was uploaded, unblock process went smoothly, Revovery Touch was uploaded to DHD as well, Superuser was installed too.
And at this level I've hurried too much, because I've installed by recovery new rom on Android 4.0.4 , this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839004
And of course... I know now iVe forgot to make S-OFF, android doesn't start, nothing happens at all....
My Hboot now says :
Hboot :
***Relocked***
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.0020029
RADIO -26.14.04.28_M
Ive tried a lot of soutions
1)Install PD98IMG.zip on sdcard (2 different stock roms) but when Bootlader is checking image, it says, that newer android is already on device
2)Install RUU, It says that there is a problem with Hboot and i need to wait for upgrade
3)Install PD98IMG.zip (pulled out from stock RUU) by recovery, it says that this image is "bad"
4)Restore backed up adnroid from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920876&highlight=hboot, from section "Install stock Vodafone ROM", but it didn't helped as well, it says MD5 checksum failed...
5) When im trying to unlock Hboot in EasyAceRootTool, it communicating with device, but then it says : "Your device is not recognized"
Please guys... what else should I do ??
ps. I know there's a lot of grammatic mistakes, sorry for that. I was trying to check what I was writing

In short, I'm trying to factory reset the phone to it's default settings, but every attempt is met with a failed attempt. Here's the specs
HTC Incredible
Android 2.2
Locked
S-ON
Hboot 1.02.000
Software: 3.26.605.1
Baseband: 2.15.00.07.28
Upgrading using the RUU file, PB3120000_Incredible_C_hboot_1.02.0000_4.08.605.2.exe, does nothing because even when it says it succeeds, the software version is the same. Tried the PB31IMG.zip method doesn't work because I get the error, "Main version is older". Going into recovery mode and resetting from there does nothing either because that fails.
The closest method I've seen which resembles mine is from this thread, but because the phone is deactivated I can't access the market to download and install rom manager to fix what could be a corrupted recovery? On top of that, I spent over an hour working with SDK, and came to the conclusion that I'm out of my depth. If anyone could point me in the right directions.
Edit: Figured out I had the wrong zip file so when I finally got it to update to 4.08.605.2 image, the boot screen is stuck at "HTC Incredible" splash screen, so I'm to assume I bricked it?

If you can get to hboot, its not bricked. Have you tried a factory reset from hboot since doing the update?

Yes, I can get to hboot, and unfortunately doing a factory reset from there didn't work either? What are my options now you think, since I ran out of ideas a while ago.

Try this ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip. If that dosent work i would unlock your bootloader with http://htcdev.com/bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery. Then from recovery try to do a full wipe and a flash of a rom.
How do I get access to the sim card from my computer and install the zip if the phone won't boat? Or is there a way I can still do this through hboot?

Well to put the PB file on the sdcard you would need to remove it from the phone, and then use a pc to put the file on there. You would most likley need an adapter, as most card readers dont do micro sd. However you can use fastboot to flash a pb file. Place the PB file on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Then type the folowing one at a time.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip PB31IMG.zip
Also unlocking the bootloader, and flashing a recovery only requires the use of fastboot.
EDIT: I guess i should have asked first if you have fastboot adb and their drivers setup on your pc? And if you know how to use them?
Sorry bout not mentioning I'm still a noob at this but for the most part I'm pretty tech savvy (just with iphones shhhh), I was in the middle of updating my progress, and I just finished installing SDK and recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img, so now after installing the PB zip udate I got this message, "Failed (remote: 99 unknown fail)". What version of PB is this anyways?

The latest 4.08.605.15. Wait that is not a correct recovery for this phone. So you are unlocked now? If so that is why the fastboot ruu failed, the bootloader must be locked.
Yea I googled it not too long ago and figured that out. So what's the right version then?

I need to do some errands but I"ll be back in 30 minutes, Just letting you know in case you're waiting on me, but irregardless thanks for the help so far and I apologize having to put up with me. Bueno, ttys..
OK, I think I just made things worse. First off, I didn't know I shouldn't of unlocked it because now I instead of getting that error 99 when trying to mount the PB, I get the message saying, "bootloader err command error !!!" after I enter "fastboot oem rebootruu". And trying to mount it while it's unlocked I get the message, "FAILED (remote: not allowed)". Sad face all around. Also, those 2 links you gave me are broken or just aren't working for me, so I'll try to find other links in the mean time. But as far as re-locking the phone, I still get the same messages as above.

You can relock by typing in fastboot
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Or your saying you already tried that and it have an error?
The links should be working again.

Wait, does your hboot still have the same info you posted earlier as far as software version and baseband? In othet words are you still on android 2.2? And do you have a working recovery now?

The RUU has to be capital letters in that first command. (fastboot rebootRUU)
Try with this one http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.2/PB31IMG.zip, i forgot that last one was built and not official.

I got 4.08.605.2 installed, with radio 2.15.10.12.20. And if I understand you correctly regarding the recovery, I got clockwork installed and working.

Well you could try thay ruu in the post above, or go to recovery, do a wipe, and flash a rom.
EDIT: To flash a rom thru recovery you would need to unlock again with the bin file.
---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------
Lol we kind of have two different things going here, and they kind of conflict. So either stay locked and try that othet ruu, or unlock again and wipe and flash a rom with cwm.
Ok, it succesfully mounted that last image you linked to me. Only thing now after it finished on the command prompt, looking at the phone now and it's sitting there with the HTC logo, a black background, and a finished green bar. Should I just reboot it or keep waiting?

Keep waiting, mabey for 10 15 min. It may take awile and reboot a few times.
