DHD bricked? - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I got a Desire HD from a friend yesterday, he asked me to repair it.
I thought I only had to flash the newest RUU, but now I think this device is bricked.
Look at the attached image. There is only that loading-screen.
I can´t get into the bootloader with Vol down + Power.
I can´t do anything with it...
What I have to do?

That happens when you flash a RUU or reset the device. Does the phone stays there and does nothing? How long did you leave it?

Yes, it does nothing on this loading screen.
I tried this solution yesterday - but it didn´t work...
Pull battery -> keep pressing Vol-down -> insert battery -> 45 Sec. Power -> wait for hboot
but it always boots into this loading screen... :-/
so I think this phone needs a JTAG repair, does it?

[Q] HTC Desire blank screen after stock update

Hi guys,
first time poster but long time follower.
Last night i attempted to load the stock 3 UK rom onto my desire so that i could recieve the ota update today of froyo but now my screen is completly blank. It shows nothing at boot up and nothing when on the home screen. I know it's on because i can see the keypad light up when i press the power button. I can't boot it into recovery mode because i can't see the screen. Also i don't have a gold card neither so im pretty stuck. I believe it has something to do with different version of screens but i didn't see anything labelled on the rom to say which is for what screen. My desire has the AMOLED screen. Please can someone help i've tried allsorts but i need to get it fixed or i may try to return it at three but im guessing they'll know i've rooted it. Thanks in advance.

hold the volume key down and power button and hold till phone powers up. if your phone is rooted and has a custom recovery u can boot into that and flash rom.
I bet you have a slcd screen. Look for slcd brick fixed.

I can't because i can't see if it's gone into the recovery menu or not.
I had this problem too, you can fix it tho.
Start the phone as usual, install HTC Sync first, then connect it to your phone via USB.
Download the HTC Bravo stock rom from shipped-roms, and then just run the .exe file, it will reflash the stock android OS and your screen will be fixed.

I am having the same problem guys. i tried to unroot and reflash with a stock virgin mobile ruu... would i use the bravo rom too?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821656
as long as you can get to recovery (even if you can't see it), you should be able to fix it.
i fixed my phone fine when I tried to install a wrong amoled ruu and bricked my screen.
my solution in the thread above
Repaired
You try reflash your HTC Desire this ROM RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.exe. Me helped it.

Start it normally and wait for 5 minutes - are there even no SOUNDS at all ?
If you can here something, than it can mean, that you have a Desire with the SLCD screen, but you flashed something for the AMOLED screen... (just an idea though)
i have the slcd and i flash for the slcd its not the first time i do it !!

Not your first time but u pulled battery at 10th mins. Was it writing to baseband? If you are sure it wasn't then it shouldn't be bricked.
Edit: Have you tried the boot using battery pull plus ish cable method? Where you have it attached to pc pull battery quickly put back in as if you power button is broke? Or tried turning it "on" and running ruu?

I echo the opinion that the ROM couldnt have damaged the phone this way. Usually RUUs do. This seems to be more of a hardware issue and might warrant a return to HTC.
He says he's got a white screen. Bricked SLCDs usually get nothing at all (black screen) on display. And ROMS dont write to the boot, so cant brick an SLCD. If he'd S-OFFd, a boot splash might loop the device I suppose. But I'm not sure about the latter.
yeah even i got the same problem.
i brought my HTC Desire from HongKong... so i tried RRU Official roms... & then after flashi got the bootsound, the 4 buttons & the charging light is working, & phone even vibrates also but the screen is black...
may be i flashed with the Amoled version...
any solutions ???
or can anybody provide me any official roms with SLCD support...

Classic SLCD brick problem..Try this thread for trying out various solutions.
You probably flashed a very old RUU. All newer RUUs (>2.0.x) support SLCDs. So if you have a goldcard, it is only a matter of flashing another RUU, preferably a WWE version.. Check my thread above.
htc desire dead. after rom insatalled. no power. no boot mode. no caharge liğht. exacly dead. ı thing hardware is damaged or boot is die. if anyone know any solution maybe can help.

[Q] |help| desire wont turn on

after a month of using, today, while driving and uding a navigation software (while the desire is plugged into charger) the phone shut down, i turned it on and then again it shut down and when i tried again to turn it on it stucked on the htc logo.
what can i do?
using a stock rom...

you can put your question in the Desire Q&A forum or in the Desire general forum.
some one? please?
Have you tried taking out the battery for a few minutes and putting it back in?
Could be phone battery got too much power from your car charging port. If thats the case, maybe you could exchange the battery.
yes, i have tried, i think the problem is with to rom, but i cant install any new rom coz they all need rooted device and to root the device i need it to be turned on
If it's the stock rom send it back to HTC for repair. Mention that it has a faulty motherboard. If you don't want to send it back boot in to fastboot or recovery and do a factory reset to see if it changes anything.
Don't ask how to do that just search.
why do you think that this is a motherboard problem?
i have tried a hard reset and it stuck on the same place - the htc logo.
and i have searched before i posted my question...
anyone? please?
some one? i need some help please
If you are running a stock rom, it can definately not be something wrong with the rom, as there are no way! Files in the rom(/system) can be changed while you were using the phone. So if a factory reset as mentioned earlier doesn't solve the problem, you will need to send it in for repair. Do a factory reset by:
1. hold down "vol down" and press "power" while keeping the "vol down" pressed
2. Choose recovery by using volume keys and power button
3. when seeing the red triangle and the ! hold "vol up" and press "power"
4. in the menu choose factory reset by using volume keys and power button
if you can't do first step(boot into bootloader), or this doesn't help the problem, you will have to send it in for repair...
and for god's sake do not try to root, as you will just void the warranty.
same thing happend me too yesterday. i search everywhere... found nothing.
phone charge is empty and turned off.. wont came again. stuck on HTC logo screen. i tried Vol (-) + Power button to Recovery, phone restarting and again stuck same screen. i cant install any rom.
i was buy in germany i'm living in turkey and call customer service, they said: "we cant get warranty your device. because you get it out of turkey"
how can i fix this pls help..

Desire: no boot constant vibration

Dear XDA developers,
a few days ago my internet connection started to fail so i decided to normally reboot my HTC desire by using the power button. After the restart it kept rebooting and showing the AlphaRev boot screen. I decided to reflash the phone by using a standard RUU. I tought it all worked out well, untill it crashed at 99%.
When i press the power button, the phone starts a continiuous vibration and shows a black (blanc) screen. I can not enter the bootloader / fastboot / recovery. It seems to react on nothing. I tryed to charge it, in case it was a battery issue, but no luck and no charging led.
I was running Leedroid + root + s-off with H-Boot 0.93.
On the XDA forum i found a way to blindly access the bootloader if there is no screen, this is not working out either.
Can someone help me out? Or is it ready to throw away? Besides that, is it possible to send it for guarantee? Or would there still be rooted/custom rom footsteps on the device?
it sounds like u flashed the wrong ruu. theres 2 types
amoled
or slcd
find out which ur phone is and flash that ruu
I will try but the computer does not recognize the device. Keep you updated.
edit:
Don't think this has anything to do with the screen. On the forum i found a topic with a trick (blind navigating to the recovery screen), but i think nothing happens when i follow this steps.
Maybe the HBOOT got fubar'd. If that's the case, your phone may be bricked. Take it to HTC for a look-see.
alpharev.nl said:
Is there any risk involved?
Yes, there is. Flashing HBOOT will flash a critical part of your phone, if that gets corrupted, your phone WILL be bricked.
[...]
If your phone no longer turns on anymore, please return to HTC for warranty purposes.

Do you think the warrenty will void if i send it for repair? Because there hase been a custom ROM and bootloader installed?

[Q] Desire not turning on at all!

Hey!
I have a PVT1 Desire, running Stock 2.2.2. I was just browsing xda, and put it on my desk. Then, 10 minutes later, i tried to turn it on, and nothing happens! I naturally put it on the charger, nothing happens, no orange light! So i try the battery in another phone, and that phone boots fine! So i try another battery in my desire, and it is not turning on. Can not boot to hboot or anything. Isn't recognized by pc. Anyone have a solution?

The point is, my desire is not just soft-brick. It is a hard-brick. I don't see any mention of hard bricks there.
You have something in my signature (how it works) just go there and see it yourself.

So magically my radio or hboot bricked itself?
Hello friends,
my Desire X was acting very strange, the screen suddenly changed the colors and went on and off for 3 seconds, and after that everything was ok. I decided to turn it off and I did, but now I can't turn it on ... I tried a factory reset. i.e. remove and replace the battery, hold down the volume button and then press the power button, but didn't work. Still when I plug it in my computer, the led turns on but I can't access the phone using the computer since it doesn't turn on. I don't think the power button is broken because it was working just fine before this. I had to send the phone to 3 different gsm services and they all said they can't do it because the model it's to recent and they can't find the software. Does anybody know what's the solution for my problem ? Thanks!
