Stuck at Screen with /!\ - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
I already searched in the whole forum and tried a lot of different tutorials and stuff but i just can't bring my desire back to life... :crying:
I got it today from a friend and tried to update it and after that it was stuck at the white htc screen and wouldn't boot.
However I wasn't able to get into the recovery mode because the phone would jump back to the white htc screen and freeze (sometimes it would vibrate 7 times)
I then tried to recover it with a ruu but i got an 152 error and now i have the black htc screen with the four /!\ in the edges. I tried different ruus, including some from vodafone (because i wasnt sure if my phone is branded or not) but with the vodafone ruus i get a 131 error (so i guess my phone is not branded). i also tried the 2.3 gingerbread image.
When i try to recover it with the gingerbread image it stops at about 55% at system rewriting (or sth. like that)
When i plug it out after this i get the following stats:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.02.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27

I also get the Error 140 from time to time...
I think i might have to downgrade the hboot, but i don't know how, cause i am s-on and can't get any further than the black htc screen (=fastboot)
i also have the adb toolkit, and i tried to force boot it by the command fastboot oem boot... but it froze at the white htc screen and vibrated 7 times
And i dont have a goldcard...
Can anybody help me with this? if you need more information just ask!

this happened to me...try s-off your device with revolutionary...and then get back to stock hboot from alpharev...and then try gingerbread image to install....
good luck...

Thank you for your reply
How can i s-off the device with revolutionary? it doesnt seem to work in the fastboot screen with the /!\ ??? Revolutionary stucks at "Waiting for device..."

You have a radio brick. Few phones are recovered from this state. The only thing you can do is endlessly flash a RUU hoping that sometime it will succeed.
Try the 2.3 RUU in my sig, or the .exe version of it, or some wwe ruu-s.
//Edit: Post 999

Thanks abaaaabbbb63 for your answer, but i think i might found the first part of the solution
I just stumbled across the "fridge/freezer" method and it worked . Simply put your desire into the fridge until its really cold and the ruu will finish the update. (I think its because the radio gets really hot during updating. For example, the more times you try to update it in a row, the hotter it gets and the sooner the ruu stops)
However, now I'm stuck in an Boot circle. Phone vibrates, green htc logo for a few sec, then black screen and the phone boots again.
But i can get into the boot loader with power and volume-.
Hboot is 1.02.0001
i can go into fastboot, but when i try to get into the recovery mode, the phone is stuck in the boot cycle again.
Anyone some suggestions on how to continue this? I think i need to turn s-off to downgrade the hboot if im right but how?
Update: When i try to do fastboot oem boot via adb, the phone vibrates 7 times in is back in the boot cycle
Update 2: Correct me if I'm wrong but I think i have to set up a custom recovery mode like clockwork via pb99.img, right? However dont have time now, will try it tomorrow...

Boot Loops and cant get into Recovery/Factory Reset in HBOOT

I was trying out a custom rom when my phone suddenly goes into boot loops. I can get to HBOOT but it bootloops when I choose recovery, factory reset, or clear storage. I get the splash image then it reboots after a few seconds.
My phone:
Incredible AMOLED
S-OFF
Hboot v .92
Baseband 7.28
What I did so far in HBOOT only with no success:
-formated my sd to fat32 and
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of radio 7.28 ( I was on 9.01 )
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of 2.2 RUU (got back the HTC splash since I had the Chicago Bears splash on it)
-flash the PB31IMG.zip of Clockwork Mod 2.5.05
-connected the USB and rerun the Unrevoked (see if I can reroot) but it won't connect to the phone. Just wait for device.
I want to S-ON so I can send it back but I can't get past Hboot to get to recovery mode. Is their another way to return S-ON by just flashing PB31IMG? I'm really screwed now and its Thanksgiving.
TIA

That's Qualcomm Diagnostics mode, because you pressed vol up while booting the phone with a USB cable attached. That will only happen when you have S-OFF.
To get out of diag mode, unplug the usb cable, take the battery out, wait a few seconds and then boot as normal.
With respect to the OP..the only way to get S-ON is using the S-ON patch by unrevoked. If your HBOOT is verion .92 then you didn't flash an RUU (maybe the latest RUU has a newer hboot? didn't think so). You should flash an older RUU, like the 2.1 one.

and ive now tried to flash stock img from hboot... and still does the same ..wont allow me into recovery
in hboot right now this is what it says...
"INCREDIBLEC XC SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.92.0000

so it looks like it flashed back to stock but still odd boot problem
Regardless if you're booting into HBOOT make sure you're holding volume down and not up.
HBOOT is version .92 now for stock? I didnt know that.

[Q] Still looking for a solution

Right first things first
my desire was having the random reboot problem after updating to 2.2 then it turned off and now wont boot up at all.
it is stuck on the htc logo,and wont enter recovery either
I can go into Boot loader and Fast boot to flash Ruu's and pb99img.zip files
And they complete successfully but the phone still goes back to the Htc logo
I have the Hboot drivers installed,android Sdk installed but cant recognize because cant enable debugging because i can't get into the android os.
The phone is unbranded but i don't have any back ups for it .
Also made a gold card and flashed stock Rom but still back to the Htc logo it goes.
Any help would be very appreciated i have read and read the forums for days but cant seem to find the exact problem and solution.
Also software version is 2.29.405.5

when it reboot does it vibrate 5-7 times sometimes ??
still looking for a solution
No does not vibrate at all just stays on Htc logo, and stays on that the screen goes blank for a second or 2 then back to the Htc logo till i pull the battery ,goes to H-boot with vol - and power button and thats about it,
Did you make sure you had a "gold card" before flashing?
Flash to an unbranded ROM, 2.29 Froyo
Did you wipe your cache memories, including devalc, and user data before flashing?
If you didn't do so before, you will be stuck.
Sorry, but maybe the gold card was not good.
yeah used the Goldcard , i cannot wipe the cache though because cant get into recovery,when i select it it just goes back to Htc logo.
have you given the freezer idea a try..?
it might be because of the cpu/motherboard over heat issue
Yeah tried it in the freezer for about ten mins no luck.

Stuck in bootloop/Cant get to recovery

Hi, My problem is as follows:
If i remove battery and put it back and switch on the phone, it will get in a bootloop. I have to wait for around 1 hour so that phone boots normally. I took this opportunity to s-off my phone with revolutionary.
right now, i cannot get to recovery, if i go to recovery and press power button, phone will reboot. I even flashed a stock rom WWE v 2.29
Specs are as follows:
bravo pvt1 ship s-off
hboot 6.93.1002
radio:5.11.05.27
I flashed CW several times through fastboot it says ok but still am stuck in boot loop and cant get recovery.
i went to alpha rev and flashed stock boot image but still not success.
Any help will be highly appreciated
After 1 hour , i can get phone to boot normally. at that time i think i will be able to get an adb shell..if there are any resizing to be done please guide me.

Stuck at HTC Boot

I'm sure you have heard about this before but searching for 18hrs now and nothing is working.
Issue: Phone is f.....kd and stuck on the HTC BOOT SCREEN.
It was running Clockworks newest version and Tried the Unrevoked 3 for the last 5 days without a problem. Then all of the sudden the phone rebooted and I was left with " Hopefully not a dead phone. "

I don't know if the usb Debugging mode is on or off . I'm thinking off cause before the phone rebooted I was looking at settings and might of turned it off . Is there a way I can turn it back on from adb ?? or see if its atleast off ?
I can't get into the recovery as it just skips back to the HTC screen. I have tried erasing etc. with no go..
Help.. Please..
Thanks..

[Q] After Successful RUU install phone stuck on white splash screen

For the past few weeks I had been running ViperOne rom. I liked it very much and it was for the most part stable, but I decided to try out UnsenseOne-KitKat. I tried installing the zip file using TWRP, just as I had done with ViperOne but when I tried rebooting, my phone only went to the bootloader and wouldn't even try booting to system.
I had a problem similar to this before when I was trying to unlock and root my One, so I thought I was fix it the same way I did then. I downloaded the vzw m7 RUU from here and installed it using fastboot. The RUU installs just fine and everything in the command prompt says that it was successful. But when I try to boot my phone now, it hangs on the white htc splash screen.
It also hangs on the white htc splash screen when I try to enter recovery. I'm at a loss, and I am now thinking I may have gained a new paperweight today. Has this ever happened to anyone? Or does anyone know how to fix this?
If it helps, this is what I see on my bootloader:
relocked
m7_wlv pvt ship s-off rh
cid-vzw__001
hboot-1.44.0000
radio-1.12.41.1112_2
opendsp-v33.120.274.0913
emmc-boot
UPDATE: Okay, so I tried installing instead the 2.10.605.1 RUU (I had been using the 1.10 version before) and now instead of hanging at the white htc splash screen, it shows the slpash screen for a few seconds and then goes back to the bootloader saying "Active cmdline overflow! (1073 Bytes)" This is new... any ideas?
UPDATE2: I googled the Active cmdline overflow problem and saw that for some it worked to downgrade hboot to 1.44. I got the hboot zip from here. And now no more Active cmdline problem! YAY! Only now my phone is once again hanging on the white htc slpash screen.
UPDATE3: Haven't done anything else since the last update, but I did just notice that when I try to boot into recovery, I get a black screen with a picture of an phone with a red triangle on it. I get a similar screen when I try to boot into "Factory Reset" but instead of a red triangle there are two green arrows making a circle. Also when my phone is plugged in my phone now once again shows the charging animation (phone turned off). This was not the case before.

That sceeen is the stock recovery. Flash this in ruu mode. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RECOVERIES/twrp/Twrp_2.6.3.4_RUU_Mode.zip. That should get you twrp recovery. From there do a factory reset and then flash a rom, and see if it boots. If it does use firewater to unlock the bootloader again.

So I did what you suggested, and the .zip file flashed just fine, no errors, but I'm still stuck at the "Entering Recovery . . ." screen.
