[Q] bricked desire with alpharev bootloader - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I'd like to revive my old htc desire witch is stuck in some kind of bricked state.
I tried all the tools like alpharev and RUU but no mater what I try I cant seem to flash anything properly.
Desire used to work very well with s-off and alpharev partitions until I give to my dad that tried to change something about it -_-
When I boot it up I get this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When plug it to my computer then unplug it I get this:
When I try to reflash a sense rom using RUU I get this error:
Thanks in advance guys, I'm almost desperate

Use bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of q&a
This problem has been asked and solved many times
Can't see the picture too clearly from my phone, I believe you are on a custom hboot so have to flash downgrader, then flash stock hboot before you flash ruu. The ruu won't fit inside a small system partition so it fails hence the error message

Thanks a lot. Indeed, I had to flash "Bravo Downgrader" from alpharev then use RUU.

Trying to flash Bravo N1Table to my S-Off'd Desire.

I have managed to S-Off my Desire today, but I am having trouble flashing the Bravo N1Table, I using the CMD command 'fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphaspl.img' and I am getting this error;
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I was mistaken in thinking I got it nailed when I installed S-Off but I see i need this image to enable Apps & Data2SD. Can anyone shed any light on how I am making a mess of this and how to correct it?
It would be greatly appreciated.
Is the bravo_alphaspl.img in the tool folder?

It is indeed, not that it seems to make any difference, lol.
And did you change the name of the N1table? If not, you need to use: bravo_alphaspl-n1table.img in command line.

Did I ever tell you I am stupid and I struggle to read simple instructions?
If you're a noob like me and you're reading this useful thread:
fastboot is part of the android sdk. Install it, browse to it with ms-dos and you're set.
Also, save the .img file to your PC in the same folder as fastboot.
Seriously, download, extract, run. Tick the Hboot box, click begin. Select the bravo_n1table.img file, open it and let it do it's work. Take about 30 seconds to install and then boot into bootloader to verify the Hboot image. You can use this utility for other things like splash, recovery, boot animation and radio.
Saves you having to fart around with typing in commands all the time.

That is just a RUU gone bad.. this happens from time to time.
You can keep trying, or try one more thing which sometimes magically works.. Put your phone in a plastic bag, and stick it in your freezer for 20 minutes, then try the RUU again.

Can anyone Help??? I think my One X is Bricked

Can anyone help? My friend tried flashing, now my screen looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is this soft or hard bricked? is there anyway to revive? Will flashing RUU fix this?
appreciate if anyone can help
My friend actually got it upto this point...
this isn't even bricked... he just unlocked the bootloader and installed a custom recovery, with that HBOOT you can install any ICS rom out there.... i would suggest to upgrade the HBOOT to 1.31 so you can enjoy the latest JB roms
Hi vtrom
Nothing to worry about, you are very close to flashing a custom ROM. I would advise sticking with the ICS ROMs to begin with and become happy with flashing different roms first.
What I would do now is make a backup - that is via the blue screen in the second screenshot.
Then look in the development areas and choose a rom of your choice, follow the instructions from the original poster to the rom.
one thing when doing so, do not rush.
Good Luck
Ok. Ill see if we can succeed. was worried phone is unsalvageable already
can I install custom ROM even if S-ON? or do I need to S-off the One X?
Or how can I at least bring it back to original rom?
Yeahp you can install custom ROMs with S-ON ... All you need is to unlock your bootloader , flash custom recovery and root . And you can't S-Off HTC One X , well for now I guess maybe never too ...
You can return to stock with this video
There's no need to post it twice !!

[Q] Fully bricked usb - how to s-off?

I am trying to resuscitate an old HTC Desire. Here is where it stands now:
Bravo PVT3 Ship S-on
hboot 0.83.0001
Radio 5.17.05.23
CM10.1 VJ Jelly Bean 4.2.2 v6.3 (which works perfectly- I also have adb over network activated, and it says: 192.168.1.111:5555)
USB is fully bricked - I can't charge it anymore via the usb-port (but I have a recharger); and also can't get usb-access - and I've tried everything that has been suggested here and elsewhere to unbrick it, but it really is dead)
Can somebody please tell me how I can get adb-over-network to work and whether I could get S-OFF that way? When I try connecting, I CAN ping the phone, but I seem unable to connect, as shown here

I have tried with 30' inrtervals, but it never connects. If anybody could point me in the right direction, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks!

Just documenting my own process. I created a goldcard and was able to get back to running an official 2.1 Éclair ROM with PB99IMG.zip. So I now have the following:
SO I guess next step would normally be to upgrade the RUU (e.g. to the 2.2 Froyo RUU), but all the instructions I find use usb. So I'm trying to figure this one out now - still VERY open to any suggestions.
I got there too. Following the instructions in the troubleshooting guide, I was able to get completely back to stock and to re-root again (with the help of Visionary and su). But the the guide recommends to also S-OFF. But I see no section on how to s-off without usb (like the section on root without usb). Could somebody please put me on the right track? Much appreciated.

One M9 Europe Bricked?

Hey, I wanted to revert my One M9 to stock but I f#cked up along the way, I did lock the bootloader before installing the stock Rom. I dont know what to do, I've been searching google for hours now and tried everything. ANy tips?
Can't go into recovery, I can't flash STOCK recovery because it's not unlocked anymore, cant flash stock rom via fastboot.
PS: The phone was 100% functional before I relocked the bootloader, but now I can't boot to Android. goes straight to Bootloader.
I Hope somebody can help! Thanks!

flash a RUU. Youre on the european fw so there shouldnt be any issues. Check out flippys thread in the general section and youll be fine
Doesn't work, tried both Zip and Exe, none of them works. the exe starts flashing then quickly aborts. same with the zip.
