[Q] Wildfire s stuck on HTC logo - HTC Wildfire S

I'm having real trouble with my Wildfire S.
I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it last week. Installed the wildchild custom ROM and the jellybelly wifi only rom, as I only want the phone to run one app. Started to remove some of the bloatware. Everything seemed to be going okay, until I then tried to instal XBMC on it aswell (was bored at work and wanted to watch the football!) but that was a big mistake as straight after trying to reboot in just got stuck in the white screen with green HTC logo.
Now I've searched and search this forum, following various tutorials on repairing bootloop, unbricking re-flashing... everything, but nothing seems to be working.
I had installed cwm and backed up, created a nandroid. But it all seems to have disappeared from the sd card, so now can't get into recovery to install the back up. A lot of the guides I've looked at require the phone to be on to enable usb debugging etc but the phone won't start up. Which also means I can't create a goldcard.
The only thing that seems to be doing anything is running the RUU, but it gets so far and comes up error 155, and says to find the correct RUU. So, I found my RUU on HTCDEV, its the UK O2 ROM, but when I un-zipped the file, it comes as a bunch of files and folders, not the .exe as the other one was. So how do I run it, is there another programme I need?
I'm really stuck, and can't find the answer anywhere on this forum.

No, as soon as I select recovery using the volume buttons then press power, it goes to the white screen green logo again and hangs there.

Ah do u have USB debugging enabled

Okay, so I have no idea what has just happened, but, I tried to get into recovery again and cwm was working, so I've reflashed Wildchild and its all working again. So I guess something from the countless tutorials/guides I've been following has worked.
So, I'm going to start from the begining, as I've relocked the bootloader and unrooted at some stage.

You could make wipe from hboot and see if it take something.. and you can install cwm using one package "PG76IMG.zip" in the root of the phone, but remember you will need to delete it

[Q] Semi -bricked desire hd

The phone gets stuck at the logo and i cannot access it.It has recovery installed but on the bootloader is says s-on.
The stats are :
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
Is it possible to recover the phone?
PS. i have already made a gold card for my htc magic,can it be used on the dhd or a new one is required?
Well, can you describe what you did for it to get stuck there?
Try a search, your issue has been covered several times. Unfortunately my knowledge doesn't reach to that extent.
Sent from a dream.
I agree with @Teichopsia what did you do to get it to that state? Last ROM used? Which recovery are you using? Expand the OP please then we can help you out!

The phone is not mine, so i don't know the exact things that were done on the phone but here is some info.
My friend had 2.3.5 gingebread with sense 3.0 and downgraded to 2.3.3 with sense 2.1 .He used the advanced ace hack tool for all this.it said root , s-off and then rebooted and then it stayed at the htc logo from then.
Reboot the phone into recovery (battery pull, hold volume up + power). Then mount the sd card from CWM & copy a ROM over. Do a full wipe (data, cache, Dalvik) and install the ROM, you should be able to get it working again

A small correction, its volume down
Unless you are holding it upside down
Remember, it's showing s-on. Reboot in recovery to check if it says s-off, if not I'm not sure

Lol thanks @Teichopsia for correcting me I always got confused (always took the wimps way out and used RomManager to get to recovery. Also the guy posted it said S-OFF so he should be able to flash a ROM.

Np mate.
But if you look at the op he wrote down the stats and it says s-on. Unless Im mistaken it should be s-off. However, the hboot version seems to be right.
That part has me somewhat confused and I'm not quite sure.

That is why u are stuck...you are still S-ON...now you know that it is always better to check before doing something.
Anyway, you are not bricked, half bricked, soft bricked or anything bricked at all..you are just stuck.
You have two choices:
If you didn't factory reset the phone (that will erase the usb drivers from it) you can just plug the phone from the splash screen and run the hack kit to have the job done
Find a RUU for your phone, flash it and when the device is fully functional then re run the Hack Kit
Both will let you with a fully working phone. I would choose the second one just to make sure that everything is working...hope it helps.
i wasn't the one that used the tool so no drivers are installed on my computer...it was also factory reset.
Where can i find a RUU for the dhd?

but to Run the RUU ur computer should be able to recognise ur device/phone which i think it wont.
You can flash the ruu from the boat loader screen.
i couldn't connect the phone with the ruu because i dont have any drivers on the pc..i connected it also when it was on the bootloader but nothing changed...
Not quite sure, but download the drivers from the htc website?

Thank you all for your help, the phone is now functional again.I used the PD98IMG to get to 2.2 and then used the aahk to get s-off.

bootloop after flashing cm7

Hey guys
After flashing cm7 ,(during the process i got an error which said "no space left on device"), every time that I try to start my device It'ill just stuck at boot screen.what can I do ?
ps:can't get to recovery.
Before flash while you're at CWM do wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache and reflash cm.
I cannot Access recovery mode.!
ps:When ever I press sound down key + power It turns on(but not lcd)and charge led gets green(sth like falsh mode)
If you still can't get to Recovery after many tries, I'd advice you flash RUU... If you are S-OFF great, if not, no problem. When you are done, you can get your Root back with SimpleOneClick (My fav).

I hope i'm wrong but looks like you have bricked your mobile if you can't go to CWM. If you can't go to CWM by holding volume down+Power button then its like you have corrupted CWM.

I mean software bricked, the device can end up in loop which is unrecoverable.

Your mobile is stuck in boot loop always without entering Recovery.
It is rooted but you cannot enter Recovery.
I hope somebody has a solution to your problem since you had rooted it and it has CWM Recovery earlier.
I am not sure if somebody got out of this problem, will reply if I get to know a method.
If the phone gets past the splash screen and gets to the bootanimation, you can use ADB to go into the Recovery.
Use the command
"adb reboot recovery"

I tried rebooting the phone, factory reset, installed custom rom, RUU and i did all kinds of wipe and format in cwm and still the same. I have searched a lot about this i found some people with the same situation but i didnt find any solution installing other roms and kernels does not fix the problem......

Switch the power off and hold the power and volume down button for a few seconds until the soft touch keys (bottom three) flash a few times. I had this once and couldn't get it to work until i simulated a 'battery pull', which the above action imitates.
Hope it fixes this issue.

No, it doesn't help. If reboot helped it'd be stupid treat, but it's not. I can't send my phone for warranty repair, because hboot 1.31, even it's relocked. If I wait for RUU that matches the hboot and CID HTC_032 may be it will solve my problem or at least my warranty will not be void.
Doc_j is right rebooting doesnt help..... But my situation is a little diferrent i did not install any hboot . The phone was untouched when it got stuck in airplane mode.... Everything was stock i tried factory reset b4 changing anything but it didnt work. Doc_j did u try a stock kernel ? Or RUU ? Anyway if u find a solution plz let me know.... GL

[Q] Desire hd 2.3.5

My desire hd is 2.3.5, Sense 3.0
I have done nothing about root/ s-off. It's like a new phone.
i want to upgrade to android 4.0+.
What should i do?? (i guess root and s-off, but not sure)i searched in xda and Google, but still no idea.
Can anyone can help? Hope u can give me the link as well.
Hi.
YOU NEED 100% Battery for this!
Fist off you will need to download AAHK (Advance Ace Hack Kit) http://tau.shadowchild.nl/aahk
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER I can not stress that enough. This WILL wipe your phone so if you want to keep SMS's use this download http://tinyurl.com/csl5qx7 (linked to play store)
Do the SMS Backup first if you want to. Then do the AAHK. This will downgrade your phone (wiping) and then root it for you with one button (Easy Right?!)
Now, you need to turn your phone off compleatly, so take the battery out and back in again. Then you need to press the power button and the volume down at the same time. This will take you to the Bootloader screen, There should be some little android guys at the bottom of a white screen. Now you need to navigate using the volume rocker to something called recovery screen and press the power button to select it. In there you will need to find the backup and restore menu using the volume rocker to navigate again. And then you need to make a backup of your current ROM. This WILL take a while.
while that is happening you need to find a ROM. Its personal preference really but one that I use that is JellyBean is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1778202 (JellyTime) Very good ROM. Store that somewhere one your computer where it is easy to find.
When the backup is complete reboot your phone by the option in recovery.
You now need to transfer your ROM's zip file over to the phones SD card and rename it update. With the JB ROM you will also need to transfer the Gapps zip that should be on the same page as the ROM that I linked. When that has done then you need to reboot and go back into the recovery screen the same way as before.
When in recovery,you need to "wipe Data/Factory reset" and then just to be on the safe side "wipe cache partition" you then need to find the "apply update from SD card option and select it. This will now update to the JB ROM. When that has done navigate to the "install zip from SD card" option and install the Gapps zip. When that has done reboot and enjoy your shiny new ROM!
Enjoy!

You can use the guide in my signature to learn the basics, if you are not used to it. The rest is reading the manual and the Hack Kit site...:good:
If you need a backup of your current rom, you can unlock the bootloader, flash recovery, make a backup, relock and run the hack kit.

Is the driver installing succesfully? after installing and plugging the phone, you will see the device manager install the driver and will prompt "device is ready to be used".
If that is happening, then make sure that you are using the oem cable and that the usb port is 2.0 and not 3.0. Use a different usb port...that is merely a connectivity issue. Have you checked connectivity per le effen manual?
Yes, I did everything, but its still don't work. I don't know why.

HTC ONE X [Please Help]

I'll prequel all of this by stating that I am a complete noob to the Android. After reading the stickies to this forum (correct me if I'm wrong), flashing the device sounds promising, but I don't know if that solution is even applicable to my problem. I'm worried I've completely bricked my HTC One X. Any help would be greatly appreciated and here's everything I can tell you about the situation.
The phone is an HTC One X Endeavor. When turned on, it shows the boot screen (HTC-quietly brilliant). Holding the power and the down volume buttons reveals the bootloader menu. The phone is unlocked and the problem occurred after an attempt to root the device. When I plug it into my computer I hear the sound that signals I've connected a new device, but under My Computer it brings up a CD drive, which can't be browsed.
If I pull up the bootloader menu while it is plugged into my laptop, this text comes up on the screen briefly:
checking sd card update
sd checking
failed to open usb master mode
loading pj46img.zip
failed to open usb master mode
please plug off usb
After running through that it just goes to HBOOT. I can still access FASTBOOT and all that, but nothing seems to work. Is there any way to revive my HTC?
Sorry for the noobishness, I've been on an iPhone for the last few years and have only had my HTC for a couple of weeks (love, love Android and never looking back). So I'm really hoping there's a way to recovery my beloved HTC.

Always the case, eh? Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I'll give this a try and come back with the (hopefully successful) results.
When I try to install the HTCDriver.exe nothing happens when I click on the .exe and I have tried this on two separate laptops, one on Windows XP and the other running Windows 7. I also sought out and tried installing HTCDriver_4.2.0.001.exe to the same results. When I click on it, the hourglass appears for a moment then disappears. I've tried running both as Administrator and still nothing. Any suggestions?

Thanks! I've done this. HTC Sync Manager was already installed so I tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it. This solved the problem. I was able to flash over TWRP and now I am on the screen that lists Install, Backup, Wipe, Restore, etc. BUT my touch screen isn't working and I can't select any of the options. Also tried the volume buttons on the off chance, but that doesn't work either. Grr! Seems to be one problem after another.
~edit~ I tried flashing clockwork over and it says that it can't load /Recoveries/CWM.img and I also should have mentioned sooner that the three buttons at the bottom of my screen do not work. Hoping this doesn't effect the process.

I've flashed Philz Touch Recovery using this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634786
Now when I boot my phone it goes to Philz Touch Recovery. I made a back up just in case. I tried recovering and it just boots back to Philz after turning it off and back on so I'm assuming I'm missing a step here. Using Automated Fastboot I selected "install boot.img" to flash over Philz and then I installed CWM also using the same program. I can access CWM by launching RECOVERY in HBOOT, but uh I am kind of at a loss for what to do next. I think the next step would be to get a stock rom and flash that over, but before I do that I would like to be certain it isn't going to fudge up the phone even more.
Also, thank you all for your assistance and patience! :victory:
~edit~ I was able to install SuperSU.zip if that makes any difference, but again when I turn on the phone it goes straight to Philz and I can access CWM in recovery.
Should I Wipe Data/Factory Reset?

I flashed over Philz Touch Recovery and replaced my boot.img. Then installed CWM so basically I am booting up a recovery and there's a recovery in recovery... Yeah. Brilliant thinking (not).
You only have one recovery, when you flash a recovery it replaces the old one automatically. Follow the link and download the latest Odexed stock Rom and boot.img>>>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1546970
reflash philz recovery then mount usb storage from recovery and copy over the stock Rom you downloaded from the link above.
Go into fastboot and flash the boot.img you just downloaded from the link then back to recovery and install the rom

Could I do the same thing with the ROM found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23993171? Thanks for the help!
~edit~ VIOLA! Flashing stock fixed the phone. Thank you so much for all of your support and patience. Cheers mate!
