Hello from the newbie.
Ok guys i screwed up big time on my htc desire hd. I bought the phone from ebay and it was already rooted. It had a superuser icon on it and it was a 2.3.5 gingerbread. I downloaded CyanogenMod 10.1 Nightlies and went to recovery mode and fleshed it. But me being a newbie didn't know that S is on. So now my phone is stock on white screen with HTC logo on it. I still can go to recovery mode with no problem. Plese help what to do?
its ok u r good !!not bricked
since you are on s on u cant flash boot.img via recovery on boot partition
simply extract boot.img from rom.zip flash it from fastboot adb
Fastboot flash boot boot.img

Yea i dont know how to do that ha ha. i will try to look up for a video tutorial. Thank you
Did you pull out the battery for a few seconds -->put it back-->hold volume down 3 seconds, then simultaneously hold down power button for 1 sec while keeping vol. down pressed.
Its been awhile since I've had to do that. A menu should pop up after asking your option for fast boot,h boot, recovery etc... From there you can see if you're s on OR s off. (top left corner)
I wish I could say I have done that before, but I have been on s off for a very long time. I'm not sure if you can turn s on or off from there

You can't and he already said that he's S-ON...
As for the OP, do some reading before doing things that you don't know how! Use search on the XDA site! And this is the wrong place for this post!

So you turn it off and it will get stuck in fastboot? Okay so you can't go to your homescreen or anything?

You can't select recovery from the fastboot menu by pushing up or down on the volume bar?
edit: maybe the battery is bad???
Or maybe a defective/stuck volume down button?
And you also said you since got it booting but then said you can't do anything but get into fastboot? Does that mean you didn't actually get it booting? And if you did get it booting at some point, how?
I got it to boot up with ruu but always says error 156 then phone will boot up. I was able to perm root with s off and flash clockwork mod. Then flashed the rooted deodexed ota. But if i turn phone off it goes straight into fastboot and cant choose anything. Buttons dont work. I do have adb.

i'm still confused here..
HOW did you get the rom flashed, CAN YOU BOOT TO RECOVERY?
I can get into clockwork mod recovery

The buttons all work fine when phone is on.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
but i thought you couldnt get the phone on....
okay so, everytime you do WHAT the phone boots into fastboot mode? everytime you reboot from recovery? every time you reboot from a rom? every time you pull out the battery and put it back in.
PLEASE BE AS DETAILED AS POSSIBLE
When are the errors you are seeign showing up? are they in recovery/fastboot? can you flash roms from recovery? what happens when you reboot it from there etc....
When you turn the phone off, pull battery, or phone dies it wont turn on. If i use piwer button It goes into fastboot and no buttons will work. I get it to boot with either adb or when i plug in the charger i dobt press anything and clock work mod will come up and and let me reboot. It reboots fine uf i use reboot. I have cm6 installed on it now.

So a brother of mine is getting rid of his HTC Desire and giving it to me. Here's what's wrong.
It's an Alltel HTC Desire but he has a US Cellular ROM on it. From the looks of it I don't think it's rooted. If I plug it in through usb the phone charges fine but it will not do anything else. That would mean it's usb bricked right?
I really don't know what to do from here. I've been rooting and putting roms on phones since my HTC Touch Pro years ago, but this situation is kinda scary. Please help! :'(
EDIT: And yes I did do some searching, but I'm worried the non-stock ROM will mess this up.....

Okay I'll look into that. When I plug the phone into my computer absolutely nothing happens. No errors or anything and the phone doesn't show up
I cannot boot into recovery. I was attempting to update ROM/Firmware and now I just get the white HTC screen - won't boot up at all. PLEASE HELP!!!
You might want reinstall your recovery, or try a different one. I use ur pc to push the recovery onto your sd card and then put back in your phone. Then, start your phone by holding down the volume down + power button. You'll that should bring you to hboot. Once your recovery installs, just select recovery from the hboot screen and you should be ok.... As long as you rooted it correctly, that is.

Depending on your ROM it might be an option in your power menu. Otherwise use ADB: adb reboot recovery.
Im currently still stock, and I have the same problem. I want to unlock the bootloader but unfortunatly, i cant.

Just detach the volume rocker from the unit. Use some some tweezers or something that can "click" the button of the volume rocker, uhm. Maybe a fork will do. Or a long fingernails. My volume down is broken too, i always do this when my phone is brickes and i want do go into recovery. Hope it helps

In adb fastboot reboot boot loader or fastboot reboot recovery. Remove volume button and use a sharp pen to press.

Hello!
Just unlocket my bootloader with freegee. I have the E975 device with v10d. I have chosen the CWM touch. But i could not enter. It just entered fastboot. Then tried again with freegee but this time i picked the other one. Version 2.5. Still just enters fastboot.
I searched the threads, Only hits i got was some failure about the boot. Not the same problem i have.

I somehow managed to boot into clockwork touch through ROM Manager after a try or two. But i know i flashed TWRP 2.5 last time. There wont be trouble with them interfering?

THANK YOU! I couldn't enter recovery after some nasty bootloop. You helped a lot! It was power+volume_up to get to fastboot, then tap volume_up twice then tap power and done!
