Hoping someone can help me with this.
Ive been searching around various forums and such and the level of info is slightly overwhelming. Im kinda at at loss of which
route to go down. However most of what i have tried has not worked.
I have an HTC Desire, it was origanally running on orange. However, i unbranded it and unlocked it then installed a stock
HTC rom. Eventually updated to Froyo. This was done some time ago and i really dont remember what steps i took.
The Phone has been running fine with no issues, reboots or lockups at all. I had been using a "Three" sim and running fine for months.
I was playing "Angry Birds" (damn addictive game) with the charger plugged in an charging when the phone rebooted and got stuck on the HTC
Boot logo screen.
Im totally unable to boot into android and alas cant access the system.
It seems im unable to access adb in anyway but i seem to be able to run fastboot commands somewhat successfully.
I have no real way to access the SD card, i have no micro sd card convertor and i guess i cant access it if i cant boot into
android?
The only real info i can provide is from the Power+Back Screen:
BRAVO PVT1 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-0.93.0001
MICROP-031d
TOUCH PANEL-SYNTH0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2
Aug 10 2010, 17:52:18
Unfortunately i bought this phone on ebay, so i cant send it back to orange (it was someones contract replacement, and uneeded)
Having read around it seems that HBOOT 93 and SHIP S-ON pretty much makes this unrecoverable?
Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks in advance
*Update*
Partly answered my own question. Seems im able to add items to the sd card via fastboot flash /sdcard/ filename
However still not sure what files to add
could you boot into the recovery?
in fastboot mode, use vol down and power button to select.

Yes, however upon pressing recovery it goes back to the HTC Boot Logo.
Bumping this for my sanity.
have you tried flashing a PB99IMG.zip?
Ive tried sending a few PB99IMG files via fastboot flash /sdcard/ PB99IMG.zip
The file seems to send fine and i can see the progress bar on the fastboot interface on the phone. However i always get a message back about the signature being wrong. Perhaps as a result of the wrong PB file?
your phone crashing without you doing anything except gaming could indicate an hardware issue.
anyways, first of all, going to htc boot logo when choosing recovery is pretty normal - it takes about 20 seconds until recovery is started.
if it doesnt start after that time, your internal data is bugged. install one of those RUU roms, to bring back you phone to factory default os. you have to root it again afterwards, but it should restore a working system.
there are a lot of other ways to restore your phone, but try these first
Murdock thanks for the advice. I had previously tried a a few RUU's however it would never let me install a version older than i already had.
I also had a fair few niggles getting the PC to recognise my phone during RUU install.
I got around this by using the older version of HTC sync which worked great (v 2.0.40)
After searching around i managed to find:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.10.405.2_R_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
This worked fine and currently the phone is working. However, it has rebooted itself once. I can only hope it stays stable as ive no idea about persistant boot issues.
If anyone is interested in the older version og HTC Sync or the Froyo RUU i shall be happy to upload them
EDIT: Check post 10 for an update on progress after running the stock RUU
Been reading XDA for awhile, first time posting. I'll try to put as much information on here as possible so please excuse the long drawn out post.
Have been running MIUI 11.16 release on Evo 4g until two days ago. My evo began bootlooping in my pocket, which happens sometimes but usually on the splash screen. This is usually fixed by a battery pull and a ROM reflash in Clockwork Recover. However, on this occasion my phone has been bootlooping on the HTC screen. I booted into bootloader and attempted to then boot into recovery but the loop continued.
I have the original PC361.zip still on my SD card so decided to run the update and see if that would reset things. The update was successful and I attempted to boot recovery . The HTC screen flashes and proceeds to a black screen with 5 vibrates and a blinking LED. This now happens every time I turn on the phone with booting into the bootloader.
I attempted (perhaps incorrectly) to flash clockwork recovery through Fastboot USB through my Mac Terminal, but have been unable to do so as it won't allow a remote flash.
./fastboot flash /recovery /Users/****/Desktop/android-sdk-mac_x86/tools/recovery-clockwork-1.8.1.7-supersonic.zip
sending '/recovery' (808 KB)... OKAY
writing '/recovery'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
So, to recap. Normal boot results in 5 vibrates and a green LED flash that is only reset by a battery pull. Fastboot access is available, but perhaps not usable by remote access. No access to recovery. Cannot mount SD card onto my Mac (not sure if that's a given). Top of bootloader screen says the following:
Supersonic EVT2- 3 ship s-off
HBOOT-0.79.0000

Radio-1.39.00.04.26

I've done a lot of forum hopping and reading and it seems like this is the most relevant information for trying to fix this problem. At this point, my only real goal is to make a phone call or two so I'm not worried about keeping my root since that can be fixed later. Any suggestions would be much appreciated and I can furnish any information you might need.
Thanks
Have you tried flashing a stock ROM RUU updater from www.shipped-roms.com?
This may not get you into your rooted state with your custom rom, but should at least get you into a usable state.
You should still be rooted afterwards, but will need to run UNREVOKED FOREVER, to get your clockwork recovery back.
Just downloaded an executable RUU filed from Shipped ROM's. I'll go find a Windows system and give it a shot. I'll update in a bit.
I think the .exe is finding the android device, but doesn't do anything after update is hit. Is there a way to connect my phone to the computer to run this .exe through bootloader?

Select hboot usb and make sure the drivers install (probably windows only, sorry) then run the ruu. I think the needed drivers are included with the htc sync software (windows only as well I believe)

Just tried with hboot usb plug hooked up and it didn't recognise. I'll try to install HTC Sync and give it another shot. Thank you guys for the help so far.
The RUU successfully installed and booting the phone no longer causes the 5 vibrations and the green LED. The phone is still bootlooping at the HTC screen going to a black screen and then rebooting.
This is the first breakthrough I've made in days. Any ideas on where I should go from here?
I would think maybe flash radio, then they to flash recovery. Maybe wait until someoe else chimes in though

I tried to flash recovery through Fastboot and my Mac terminal, but I'm still being denied remote access.
A quick update on the situation to try to consolidate any progress so far...
I successfully flashed the stock RUU which should have returned everything back to stock. I'm still stuck in a bootloop from the HTC screen to black screen but no longer have the 5 vibrates and the flashing green LED.
My Bootloader heading is as thus...
Supersonic EV2-3 Ship S-off

Booting into recovery from Bootloader still causes the boot cycle meaning that the RUU didn't fix everything. Also, S-OFF still seems to mean that the root appears to be in place (maybe?) so no luck of returning it to sprint. Still cannot remote flash from the command prompt in windows.
I'm not sure what to do next. If I had to wager a guess it would have something to do with the PC36img.zip file, even though I'm not totally sure what this means or which one I should attempt to load. If this is the case, I can go buy an SD card reader today and attempt to load another up if anyone can suggest one.
Again, thanks for all of the help.

did you try to unroot don't know if you used unrevoked but if you did try to flash the s-on tool and then flash the 3.29 ruu that should put you back up to stock and load good but if it doesn't then you may have a corrupted nand. Don't take my word for it cause i know computers more than these phones i know enough to get me by thats about it but if they are anything like computers i would venture that as the problem

I can't get adb to recognize my device with hboot usb plug showing. I tried adb devices and nothing will pop up.
I'm having this same exact issue you did. Did you ever end up finding a solution?
Hi, hoping someone can help me. My phone seems to have bricked itself. A few weeks ago i had CM6 on my phone then i reverted back to the stock rom from HTC. The phone worked fine for a few weeks then about a week ago i started having random data connection issues, yesterday the phone started resetting by itself, after the third or fourth reset the phone stopped booting at all. all i get now is the white HTC EVO 4G screen or the bootloader when i hold the volume down button.
Here are the version numbers on the bootloader screen.
SUPERSONIC EVT2-3 SHIP S-OFF

i can only get windows to recognize the phone through usb by using the HBOOT USB option and installing the android bootloader interface driver. I don't really know how to use ADB and i'm not even sure if it is seeing the phone. All i want to do it get this back to official firmware.
any and all help is appreciated
thanks.
Well, it's not bricked if you get into that menu. Can you get into your recovery? If so, try wiping everything and reflashing the rom.
No i can't get into recovery, i even tried reapplying clockwork recovery trough there and all it does is install it, say it's installed ok then i reboot and try to go to recovery mode and it just goes to the white HTC EVO 4G screen
What version of hboot do you have?
*Nevermind* Apparently I can't read. xD
What root method did you use?
that's if i even installed it right.
i'm not sure if it even is rooted anymore because i had put the official firmware back on, when i had CM6 installed i used clockwork recovery and unrevoked
well if you were able to install a custom rom like cm6 then you are more then likely rooted. you say that you cant get into recovery? you should just try running the ruu.exe and returning to complete stock and then reroot if you want.
the official RUU.exe doesn't see the phone. when i connect hboot in the bootloader, device manager see's the phone as android bootloader interface and it i let the boot normally and let it crash at the evo 4g screen it show's up as "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM" and doesn't have a driver. I am running Windows 7 x64
maybe you should try slashing the stock pc36img.zip maybe that will get you back on track.
Edit: this is the link to the thread with the stock pc36img.zip
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=791019
and just for future reference. it is not that hard to do a search of the information that is needed. while i was here posting these things i found with the search all the info i hae given. just food for thought.
What caguirr4 said. With that file (or since you have s-off you can TRY getting a rom zip and renaming it to pc36img.zip) your phone will read it automatically when you boot using the volume down technique. That should at least get your phone to boot up and you can continue trouble shooting from there if you have more problems.
Remember: Conserve your battery! You don't want the juice to run out while the phone is in the middle of flashing something. THAT is how bricks are made.
i ran the update you gave me, the phone said that all the stages of the update were sucessful and asked me to reboot, i did so and now my phone won't power on and when i plug it into the wall it won't show any charging lights.

sorry for not clarifying,i ran the original stock image that was linked to me by caguirr4 in post #9. According to the update it ran fine but after that the phone died when it had me reboot.

Ok, so you press the power button, and it does nothing? That doesn't sound good at all. Hopefully, your battery is just dead and the drivers for the USB port didn't install right. In which case, you need this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
Do you have any extra batteries you can try to make sure that battery isn't just dead?
I ended up taking it to a sprint service center, they tested the phone with thier own battery and the phone was dead. they are replacing the phone for me now. thanks you everyone for trying to help.
You could of just overwritten the ENG bootloader u had installed...

I had cyanogen 6.1.1 installed on it and it was was working fine. I just felt the thing vibrate and took it out of my pocket to see the "htc EVO 4G" screen and it just keeps rebooting unless I hold the volume button to get into the bootloader.
I REALLY don't want the stock firmware back on here and would like to avoid loosing root if possible.
I tried putting the PC36IMG.zip from here and at first it asked me if I wanted to flash it and after the first thing it restarted and now gives an error Main Version is older!
Update Fail!
Any ideas? I would really like to keep this phone.
Thanks,
Justin
I've tried basically everything I can think of. After attempting to flash the first PC36IMG.zip file I get the main version error for every other one.
Is there somewhere I can get the latest PC36IMG that will be newer and I can try to flash? At this point I don't really care if I lose root (if I haven't already) I just want my phone back.

Just run the ruu.exe and get it back to stock.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I tried that. I even tried flashing the stock PC36IMG.zip (which flashed successfully) but I had the same problem. I finally gave up after like 8 hours of working on it and took it into Sprint. I am going to pick it up at 7. They said if they couldn't fix it they would give me a new one for $35 since I'm out of warranty which doesn't seem bad.
Hi guys.
My EVO keeps rebooting by it self. I try to get to the recovery section but in boot loader when I chose the recovery, after restarting my phone keep rebooting again!! I don't know what should I do and actually I don't have insurance too.
Search the Evo dev forum for shipped roms and download the 3.70(latest update) rom and put it on the root of your sd card and rename it PC36IMG.zip(make sure it is not PC36IMG.zip.zip which is a common error). Then boot into bootloader and it will scan the sdcard for the PC36IMG and ask if you want to update. Select yes and let it do it's thing. It may reboot during the process and rescan the sdcard and then continue updating. This is normal. Do Not turn your phone off or pull the battery during the update. This will get you back to stock. From there you can reflash your recovery and then restore a nandroid backup, or flash any rom you want. Hope this helps.
Here is a megaupload link to the PC36IMG you need to download and place on the root of your sdcard: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MUSAURP7

Well, "s" is on indicated that the phone is back to stock, which means you have no custom recovery on your phone to boot into.
Does your phone boot normally? If so, try unrooting it again.
but when my phone keep rebooting how could I check usb debugging and install recovery? when I turn on my phone the only thing I see is white screen sads evo 4g and after 2 secounds .. reboot again
I have similar problem like this guy has
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUi3NFXSh78
Have you tried re-running an RUU?
no what dose that means? How could I do that?
Basically unroots your phone back to stock, in this case, the 3.70 update stock.
yes I did but its keep rebooting

If your phone cannot boot normally but can get into the bootloader, you can push a recovery onto the phone with ADB. It's more of an advanced method, but it looks like you may not have a choice. The problem is that you already started running an RUU and you unrooted the phone. If you rooted with unrevoked, then it should say "s" off. The fact that it says "s" on means what unrevoked did is gone or partially gone, at least.
Try running the RUU again like teh roxxorz mentioned.

Go to the following site http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715485 and download the EVO_Radio, the WiMAX, PRI and NV "individually". Afterwards, connect your EVO to your computer and boot up. If you're taken to the bootloader screen like you stated in your post, select recovery from the list of options. Hopefully, you're using amon RA v2.3. Anyway, If you can get into recovery, select the MS-USB option. Your computer should detect your SD card shortly afterward. Copy the files you downloaded to your SD card. When complete, eject/unmount the SD card from your computer first and then push the power button on your EVO to unmount from within recovery. Now go to the wipe menu and wipe the cache & dalvik. After that, go to the flash menu and flash the PRI. You should reboot to the radio update screen. Be patient and DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY. When complete, you should reboot back into recovery. If you happen to reboot back to the bootloader, simply select recovery from the available options. Now flash the EVO_Radio. Like before, you will reboot to the radio update screen. Be patient and DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY. After some time, you should reboot back into recovery. If not, get to recovery from within the bootloader screen. Do the same thing for the NV and the WiMAX. You *may* have to reflash the HBOOT. Anyway, after you've updated your radios, reflash the recovery. I HIGHLY recommend RA v2.3 You can download the PC36IMG.zip file for it here: http://files.androidspin.com/downloads.php?dir=amon_ra/RECOVERY/&file=PC36IMG.zip
After that, see if you can boot to your homescreen. If you can, great. If you cannot, try reflashing the rom. Remember, after flashing the radios and preparing to boot to your homescreen, you will appear to hang at the white EVO screen. Be patient and DO NOT PULL THE BATTERY. It will eventually clear. Hopefully, this will help you. Take care.

Great catch!...... I totally missed seeing the "S-ON" in the OP's post and you're right, that usually means he is no longer rooted and need to re-root his device. OP, disregard my last post and RE-ROOT your device.

Rebooted to recovery, and flashed all the zip files, and now i'm STUCK there. Every time the phone restarts it just brings me back to the same old screen that says:
SUPERSONIC EVT2-2 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-2.10.0001
MICROP-041f
TOUCH PANEL-ATMEL224_16ab
RADIO-2.15.00.11.19
Oct 15 2010
HBOOT
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
HBOOT USB
What do I do now? can I flash a new ROM using the USB cable? I don't think i have a micro sd card reader on me...
Anyway to fix this? I'd rather not wipe my device, but I can do it if I have to.
HELP
THANK YOU.

Well, if you can get to the bootloader, it's unlikely that you're bricked. You *should* be able to recover here. The other guy is correct, since you're now S on, you lost root. Do you still have recovery? When you select 'recovery' from the bootloader, what result are you left with? (do you successfully boot to custom recovery, does it bring you back to the bootloader, or does it show you a black screen with a red triangle in it? If you still have recovery (I doubt you do, for some reason), then you should be able to flash the Unrevoked Forever S off tool, to set you back to S off. From that point, you should be able to flash a new rom.
However, I'm guessing that you lost recovery (for whatever reason), and you'll probably need to run an RUU, to try to flash the phone back to stock. From that point, you could re root again.
You can find an RUU here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060&highlight=hboot-0.97+ruu. Download the newest one, i believe it's the first on the page (3.70 software).
Edit: And about wiping your device, it seems as though that's already happened, ha. I don't think your stuff is coming back. Your only hope to get it back would be a nandroid backup, but you said you don't have one. We don't even know if you have recovery or not. Once you find that out, we'll know a lot more. If you're lucky, and still have recovery, it will be quick and easy for you to get back up and running.
Double Edit: OP. What recovery were you using? Did the radio flash seem to be successful, and then you just couldn't boot up afterward? Did you recieve any error messages when flashing it or anything like that?
Bricked means it won't even turn on...you just lost root. Do what the other posters said and please, read and take your time. You don't seem to have a firm grip on the whole rooting process.
You probably upgraded your hboot which is why you lost s-off and your phone won't boot. You can flash a kernel to get it to boot but you will need to get s-off back before you will be able to flash the radios.
