Hi, I recently upgraded phones and wanted to unroot my desire and return to stock so i could sell it on. I read up about it and it didn't seem to tough. I downloaded an RUU and i ran it through my phone in fast boot rather than HTC sync as my phone was running a none sense ROM. I ran it and it seemed to be working when at around 60% complete it flashed an error on my PC that it couldn't open a file and that i should download a complete RUU and try again. I have since tried several RUU's and every time its the same. Now when i turn on the device its got a fast boot screen but i cannot go any further, when i plug into the PC it goes black with error triangles in each corner.
I didnt downgrade the HBOOT first and it was using the sense one rather than stock, i guessed that this would be done through the RUU.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
At what stage of the process do you receive an error? if you turn the phone on while unplugged from USB it should say FAIL by one of the categories. It is only bricked if the RADIO category says FAIL.
What hboot you are on now?
Did you downgrade to s-on?
What brand did phone had originally and what ruus have you tried?
Swyped from SGS2.
If your desire still reacts, it's not bricked. If your desire is bricked, it would not be nothing more than an expensive paperweight. So please change the thread title.

unplug it from USB then turn it on, it should be in bootloader (RUU mode), and should say what failed.

I'm getting a USB error now so not even getting chance to try it out, its the same for the other RUU's too so its not a bad download.
If when i start my phone and plug it into a USB when i unplug it goes to a bootloader screen and says
Alpharev Sense
Bravo PVT 1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93 1002
MI CROP-031D
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.09.05.30_2

RUU
I cannot open anything and pressing any button does not do anything, when i plug back in it goes back to the black screen
To avoid the usb connection error, flash the ruu directly via the PB99IMG.zip method:

@MatDrOiD - I'm pretty sure you're 99% correct in MOST cases, however this sounds like a RADIO brick.. and AFAIK the only fix is a motherboard replacement.. YES, the phone DOES turn on and responds, however from my experience it is not fixable.

thanks for clarifying... I guess the only thing to do now is to wait for google to announce ice cream sandwich and then wait for devices that will support it and buy one.... been fun with desire, at least I still have it as an mp3 player
I'd suggest you to try use PB99IMG.zip method, too...
To do that, first download the zip version of the RUU file for your phone, you should be able to find it if you do a search. After this, put the zip file to your SDCard's root folder (directly into it) and name it PB99IMG.zip.
After this, plug SDcard back to phone, turn on your phone while holding Volume Down button. HBOOT screen will come, read the zip file and ask you if you want to flash. Press Volume Up to accept and it shall flash itself.
If this one fails either, I'd recommend you to do S-OFF first, and then try again. Maybe you can have more chance with S-OFF HBOOT..
So what DOES your desire actually do atm?

it boots, acts normal. does NOT recognize PC when connected, nor is it recognized the other way around.it drops service as soon as the screen is locked or goes dark (like when you pick up the phone or lock the screen normally). I can't flash radio or S-off, as I am still S-on and usb doesn't work. I tried PB99IMG.zip two or three times, either it does not update when using 2.2 RUU or it does reflash 2.3 RUU, but doesn't fix anything... I tried temproot with rageagainstthecage (doesn't work) and zysploit (doesn't work). I can access the phone via USB when in fastboot via fastboot and adb recognizes the phone only when connected through wi-fi. I don't know if there is anything I can do to make it work. I do not require the USB to work, even if it would be nice, I just need the phone not to drop service and drop calls every time the screen is off...
wait... your phone boots????????? If I missed you saying that then I'm sorry x1000000 it isn't bricked..
in that case it's not bricked.. have you tried the USB brick fix?
and to fix your service you could try:
in the dialpad dial *#*#4636#*#*, phone information, and play around with the preferred network types. It's a deep-sleep issue solver, so could possibly work for you too.
EDIT: oooooooooooooooooooooooh I know why I thought it was a radio brick, there's a post similar to yours, and just got confused

Sorry, I didn't see your post.
First, you are trying to root your phone? Was it successful? Then you tried to instal cm7.2 but got stuck at the boot screen?
Did you read the guide? Take your time, there is no rush. Your phone ain't broken.

Me? Heck no.
It seems that he ran the hack kit, tried to install cm7.2 and ran the hack kit again. Why? Don't know.
But yes, perhaps it could be the drivers but then they should be working from the first time he ran the kit.
Too many assumptions.

He just needs to run the ruu from hboot.
Pull your battery.
Put it back in and press volume down and power for a few seconds
Plug in your phone.
Make sure it says fast boot USB if not select fast boot.
On PC run the ruu. Done
Now for the lecture. Don't EVER flash something to your phone unless you know the basics on how to get out of a jam. The kit clearly states not to do this so don't know what crossed your mind to say screw it I'm going to do it anyways

If unlocked through HTCDev and you relock am sure it will say its been unlocked. I know that was the case with OneX
If you soff then you should easy be able to return to stock and re-do the son and be fine.
If you unlocked the phone via the HTC dev site and after that s-off you can lock it but your phone will always be registered at HTC.

Registered, yes, but they can't tell if you used the token to unlock the phone if it's all reset before sending it back cause of S-OFF
That's true.....

Just look in de android dev sections here, its filled with s-off discussions and guides.
Hello anyone,
Today I had done step by step form this guide. Everything went correct, every MD5 sum were pass, and last was correct with first and second. My DHD was rooted and fully unlocked by AAHK, but I needed to flash radio for new ROM what I want to flash in the future. I have stock ROM 2.3.3
Author of the guide warning "if checksum don't pass do not reboot..", but everything was fine, and my DHD is bricked, it doesn't turns up. If I connet device to the PC, and wait 3-4 min then I see HTC logo and phone start vibrating all the time, that makes them hot after few seconds. I do not want to break it more then I taking battery out.
Is any hope to save my DHD? Year ago with another DHD I used the same guide and everything went correct too, but that one works fine, that one nope.
I can help

The other device in the future will eventually become like your second. One must never mess with the eng boot unless they are tech savvy. You could try an ruu or the dumbass post to fix your device.
---------- Post added at 12:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------
I also need your details...s off....boot loader unlocked??
Yeah, I'm a dumbass :laugh:
Now I see "[...]everything is permitted", I'm just worry about leave the phone vibrating, it makes phone really hot. I think this phone is rescued from another brick, cause before I made superCID I saw Chinese CID. Coincidence? But I'm not sure I had froyo in that one.. hm..
If you asking about it I've made fully unlock by AAHK, in BL was "ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF RL", have a root, busybox, superCID, CWM - everything.
..but S-OFF was done earlier, before I bought it.
Sorry for my english
OK it's done, phone is resurrected by wizzards from xda. You have my thanks :good:
..but still I'm a dumbass
No. Youre not a dumb butt. You managed to fix your device!! How did you manage to fix it? So others can learn...thanks
Is nice what are you said but I saw I need to learn much more. With that people like you I will really, I'm very grateful to you, you have save my phone. I saw many pages but in my country search do not show me that page may some day I help you, I hope

Boot into you bootloader, and post the readout here. I will direct you to the proper firmware and give you instructions on how to flash it.
If you don't know how to get into your bootloader: turn your phone off, then hold down the power button + vol down till your phone boots up..

I see you got it before I posted my last reply.
I can help you here. I'm going to give you 5.0.1 firmware to flash. You'll need it for ViperOne if you don't want wifi problems.
Download this firmware.
Rename it to 0P6BIMG.zip (that's a zero, not the letter) and place it onto the root of your extSD. (by root of I mean just on the card, not in a folder)
Boot into bootloader by turning off your phone, then turning it on by holding down the power button + vol down.
Using you volume keys to navigate, and the power button to select, choose hboot. (it'll be on top and highlighted already, no need to navigate. more for future reference for you)
Follow the prompts (vol up to flash, power button to reboot)
That's it. You now have Lollipop firmware.
Make sure to delete the renamed file from your extSD, otherwise it will try to update again every time you boot into hboot.
It doesn't work.

You'll have to go back to stock and take the OTAs that your carrier offers, or get s-off to use the method I posted.
You could also run the signed RUU. Search the forums for it. I'm not home. I'm on my phone, so it's a hassle to link you.
