Hi all, I've arranged to have my phone replaced because the trackpad has stopped working so I wanted to unroot the phone before I sent it back. I was on hboot 0.75 and CM6 rom before I tried to unroot. I flashed the RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe file from this forum hoping it would take me back to standard 2.1. When I boot the phone I get the white HTC screen for a while before it reboots and shows again for a while...a boot loop I guess. I can get back into hboot/fastboot but going to recovery gives a boot loop like a normal boot. I've since flashed the official froyo update using a goldcard and that seems to be doing the same thing.
Any help anyone can give me would be great...I've hit my limit on trying to fix it and I'm starting to get a bit worried!
Thanks
i am new to the forum and i am looking for some help i have a htc desire unbranded and it is stuck on the htc splash screen it is on hboot 0.93 and i have tried downgrading but it keeps coming up main version is older i can get into fast boot but not recovery i have been reading a lot of threads but cannot figure it all out as there is so much information i'm chasing my tail tail lol if anybody can help me i will be very grateful.
Why are you trying to downgrade? You could use an RUU as a quick fix but it will wipe everything. You haven't given any details of what you tried to do or are wanting to do.
i believe i have to downgrade to hboot 0.83 to get the phone to work but im not sure i have tried a lot of ruu's but cant seem to find the right one i'm very confused by it all to be honest i'm stuck as to what to do
It would also be helpful, if you used a little bit more correct grammer (putting punctuation between each sentence) as much as possible. Some of us, can't understand what you're talking about. This isn't FB or an sms
Also, it would help. if you said exactly what you did, and how you got into this situation. Ie; flashes, etc.
For example, are you rooted? Were you trying to flash a custom ROM?
htc stuck on boot up
Sorry i am not the greatest writer. I was on 2.1 and upgraded ota to 2.2.then the phone started resetting itself. before not booting altogether.i am currently on rom image 2.29.405 hboot 0.93 .and thats as far as i know.
htc stuck on boot up
The phone just hangs on the white htc screen.and wont go into recovery.
First of all, you have a desire. Before running any update, you need to create a Gold Card. It's not specific to "all" desires. But, better safe than sorry.

To boot into recovery the manual way, turn phone off.
Hold volume down, and press the power button.
This should boot to recovery.
If you get the Triangle, with exclamation mark,
press Vol Up + Power
This will bring you to another recovery menu where you can : Reboot , Flash from sd , Wipe Data/factory ,Wipe Cache
If you can recover the system, I highly suggest creating the Gold Card.
And one more note, if you decide to flash to a stock RUU, I highly recommend wiping all cache memories before flashing. Yeah, I know they will tell you that it's not necessary, but hey, I believe in overkill.
htc stuck on boot up
That's the thing it wont go into recovery, I can go into boot loader and fast boot but when i press up and power it goes back to the htc screen and hangs there again, i have tried a ruu which seemed to be successfull but it still hangs on the htc screen and will go no further.
If you can't get into any type of recovery, just how are you able to flash?
Bear with my stupidity here.
Without a menu system in any type of recovery, I am at a loss.
However, I have heard, that, some people put their phones in the freezer for several minutes. And that the phone would boot. Enogh where they col=uld goto recovery, and fix what they messed up.
Now, I would suspect it;s because the processor was overheating during boot. Probably because cache memories weren't wiped before flashing, and crap got all messed up.
Normally, I would never suggest this. And you do this at your own risk. So if it's messed up beyond repair, please, do not blame me,
htc stuck on boot up
I went into fastboot usb then ran the 2.29.405 ruu which completed successfully,i even extracted the pb99img.zip file and updated that way but still no luck,ill throw it in the freezer for 5 and give it a whirl, who knows might work. and thank you
The freezer thing, is a last ditch effort. And it is only a temporary thing. 15 minutes max. Maybe enough to allow you to clear caches and flash.
I have run out of expertise. So, I have nothing more to offer...
Hi all,
Yesterday I unlocked the boot loader on my htc one x, it worked perfectly first time and I had no problems booting back up. I then tried to follow the instructions to rom the CM11 KitKat 4.4.4 onto the device.
Problem is I have now somehow gotten stuck in recovery, I can get back to the boot loader screen, but then never passed the recovery screen, when I installed the rom.zip file on the device it failed to install correctly. I fear I have now cleared all the rom info on the device and I am in a state of eternal recovery.
I am also working on a Mac, I know it's an android sin, but it's my wife's pc. If I plug the sub cable into the device the Mac doesn't pick it up, although the boot loader changes to fast boot use when plugged in.
Can someone please help me, I am new to this and very frustrated. I just want to get the device back to standard or just back to those screen.
Much appreciated.

Install latest Philz recovery or TWRP or CMW
So yeah the title says it all really, I flashed a ROM on TWRP without factory resetting and now it's stuck on boot screen. Just wondering if there was some way around this or if I just ruined my phone.
EDIT: after searching around a bit I noticed what I am dealing with is a boot loop, anyway I can fix it?
Greetings All,
So I did a very stupid move and kinda soft bricked my M8. I received my Lollipop update, restored my stock recovery, applied the update, rebooted phone, applied TWRP and flashed SuperSU. Once I booted back into phone I saw that I still had Xposed installed and bundled and the idiot that I am, ran the uninstaller. Now the phone boots up and after showing the white boot logo sits at a black screen.I can get into recovery mode so I am pretty sure that if I download a Lollipop custom ROM I can get booting again? Factory reset did not help and I did not do a nandroid either :/. I am still S-ON so I can't flash the RUU file :/.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Problem resolved. Please ignore this thread .
