Please Help

Right I am kinda at my wits end, I am trying to put my wifes Desire back to stock. I have tried installing the IMG file from the boot loader, I have tried using android flasher, and I have tried using the RUU programs. And I either get one of two responses, either The phone starts up with the usuall sounds but its a black screen the phone seems to have started up as the USB light comes on and when you press the screen on button the buttons at the bottom of the phone light up. OR I get stuck in a bootloop on the white HTC screen. where am I going wrong all I need is the desire back to some form of stock.
when I go into the bootloader it shows
BRAVO PVT3 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
RADIO-5.11.01.27
I do have a goldcard installed in the phone.

Recovery, wipe/factory reset, wipe eveything and flash stock rom. Im sure you will be able to download stock rom from xda.

Thank you for pointing it out, I was just trying to get help putting this phone back to standard and added as much information so I could get quick assistance. Apart from to point out a mistake on my part do you have anything to add to this thread? such as a solution??
All sorted, HBoot downgraded, Stock RUU installed but turning it into a PB99IMG file, happy day. Thanks JMCCLUE for your suggestions.

[Q] Stuck DesireHD, can still get HBOOT, OrangeUK, help! (Noobishness within)

Hi all,
After scouring the intertubes for 2 days, I've had to give in and beg for wisdom on this one.
Recently inherited a Desire HD from my wife, factory-reset but loaded with Orange crapware, so I thought I'd crack on and root straight away.
Went for it with the AAHK kit, however it hung at the white screen after restarting, and have had no life out of it ever since. I can still access the HBOOT screen and Bootloader, from which I managed to query the device infor, CID etc, see attached file. HBOOT info is:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024
MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.09.04.11_M2
eMMC-boot
Apr 12 2011,00:55:45
I've tried to get the firmware up and running again with various RUU's, with and without the goldcard I've made, and am now at a loss! The RUU will initially look to be working, get some way into the progress bar before returning the error message - 'The ROM Update Utility cannot update your android phone. Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.'
As the device can switch on, it's clearly not a brick, just incredibly stuck!
Can anyone help me get this going again, ideally unbranded and rooted?
Thanks in advance!

Ok, the phone is still s-on.
Did you try to run aahk again on the phone?
What system did you use to run aahk on? Maybe try the method with the ubuntu boot cd to rule out any problems with the host computer.
Since the phone is still S-ON you can only install signed images. But the RUU ones should work.
Did you also try to copy the RUU to the SD-Card (adb push "RUU-File" /sdcard/PD98IMG.zip) and boot into hboot?

I did try to rerun AAHK, all it did was give me a connection error message.
I presume pushing the RUU to the SD card is the same as copying it and renaming the file? I've literally zero experience of the terminal ocmmands involved.

it seems that your goldcard might not be working. However not sure without knowing exactly what your error is.
What is your cid and main version number?

CID is ORANG001.
Version no. is 1.31.405.6
Re. creation of the goldcard - I put the sd in my wife's phone and ran the Goldcard helper app, then put the code into the website, then used the image file it created. Seemed straightforward, not sure what could be the problem there? It was a brand new 32GB card.

It's linked in his signature (which you can't see from the XDA app). If you're using the app, it's the PDF in post #7 in the Ace Think Tank thread.

Hi glevitan,
I tried that RUU, it failed on a 'remote: 42 custom id check fail' error. I've attached an image of the terminal window. No idea what this means.

An RUU is a .exe, run it in windows like any other software

Ok. Try the following. Rename that file PD98IMG.zip, put it into the sdcard and boot in hboot. When prompted to update, choose yes if that error still occurs, then your goldcard is failing.

Wrong. A ruu can be in a .zip file and be flashed in fastboot or in hboot. The .exe format is how carriers pack it.

Cracked it.
I stopped trying to use the 32GB microSD and bought a cheap 8GB one. Glevitan's firmware then flashed no problem, aahk did it's stuff, and all is well in the world! So small-capacity microSD's make better goldcards.
Thanks for all your help!

My friend said he didn't rom it, but another friend of him broke his screen and did let him repair it by someone who I not know. And I think he did something wrong with it perhaps.
I am now in the android system recovery but moving down isn't really an option the hardware key is stuck (I think))

You could try to find a compatible RUU and run it. Aside from that I can't really help because I have no idea what's been done.

Can I do a RUU with a phone that isn't working correctly? via fastboot then?

If the volume down key is stuck, then when you turn it on you're really pressing power and volume down, which is how you get into hboot. Open the battery compartment and see if you can unstick the button.

With the RUU I get error 120 battery less than 30% but when I stick it in it is 100% (I believe otherwise the battery is broken too)

Adb/fastboot are programs used for interacting with android devices for development by unlocking the bootloader you have these items.
Judging by what you have said you are stuck in a bootloop. I suggest flashing a custom recovery for the 2012 wildfire s and then flashing a custom rom. The ruu may not have worked for a few reasons but mainly because your bootloader is unlocked.

Hello,
thanks for the link (so that we talked about the same procedure). I have followed the steps and installed CWM.
But basically the original problem persists. After starting the phone after selecting the start and Recovery, CWM menu displayed only for a few seconds and the phone will reset again.
I also noticed unusual features:
After connecting the phone USB cable to power supply (charger or PC), the phone automatically turns on.
Again thanks in advance for further advice

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:

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?

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.
