Hi all,
I'll give a quick outline here then go into more detail below if you need it. i've tried things suggested in the other bricked htc threads but none seem to work.
I've basically follwed the root guide at droiden, made a gold card and rooted my htc desire phone which went ok. problem was i then installed the suggested rom in the tutorial which was for an amoled screen but i 've got an slcd screen (i'm thick).
The upshot is my htc desire will only start up sometimes and when it does just goes to a loading screen with a bright colourful x then switches off. holding volume down and power or back and power doesn't bring up the boot menu or fast boot. i've tried to flash from one of the ruu.exe files but it just keeps saying my phone has less than 30% charge (it doesn't) and quits the ruu. Is there any way to recover my phone via another method? I've got the coldcard used to root the phone.
Many thanks
Detailed description
i've basically followed the guide to root here at droiden
and installed the rom here de frost rom it suggests.
rooted fine then i flashed the rom (the de_frost one suggested in the tutorial) - got stuck on a colourful X screen and now won't turn on. it'll only turn on if i connect to a pc and open unrevoked but then it just boots to the colourful x screen until it goes off and then i'm back to the begining.
going off that other thread it sounds like i've used the amoled rom when i've not got an amoled screen.
to make matters worse i've followed these two steps here in other threads on here which suggested a new ota or ruu. ota wais a broken link and with ruu.exe i get an error saying my battery is below 30% (it's not) and so it won't go any further.
are there any other options available to me to restore my phone bearing in mind that volume down and power doesn't bring up the boot screen (just white htc screen then colourful X screen) so i can't even do a hard reset that way. Not bothered about wiping the phone's memory just want to get it back so i can start from scratch with the right rom. i have the gold card used to root the phone.
any help appreciated - thanks.

Needs to be a gold card if your phone is network branded
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
ok i did it and it worked first time - it let me get to the boot screen but then after it rebooted it just won't switch on at all now.
any ideas?
Did you let it run till the phone booted?
Take the batt out for a min and pop back in and try. And also make sure you got a good charge
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
yeah it said it was rebooting but then never came back on. i'll give it a good charge and try again.
right it will now turn on everytime but won't go to the boot screen. Volume down power and back power just start it up and it sticks on the loading screen with the x for hours.

i'm not too sure. i bought the desire from ebay. it's an orange branded htc about 2/3 months old. i followed the root guide here (can't post full links as i'm a new member- just stick a www dot infront of)

if it would just go to the boot menu i'd even wipe the thing and start again!

can someone advise me of a good stable rom which will work with a slcd screen?
many thanks
Best Rom I find is MIUI takes a bit to get used to but you will love it if you miss the clock just download fancy widget .. for the HTC clock and weather. just Google it and get the.apk
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
hmmm. can't download anything from the android marketplace. just says download unsuccessful.
for any who has the same problem - think it was a schoolboy error. when it sticks on the x screen the options must be in the background. press volume down then press power and it boots.
Hi, ive been lurking on the xda forums for months, and have succesfully roooted and run darky rom on my galaxy s. then i got a wildfire s second hand.
Now i decided to try for s-off and a custom cwm rom. downloaded all the files read everything i could, and have managed to brick it i think.
Result if i press power or volume down + power i get a flickering screen, it flashes grey for 2 sec, black 2 sec. there is a faint red glow to the right of the front htc logo...where i thought the camera was lol.
i was trying to use the htcdev.com route. downloaded :
PG7610000_Marvel_hboot_1.09.0099_2.13.401.3_0210_R .exe
and tried but it said i needed an earlier rom before i could update.
2.13.401.3 to be exact so i downloaded:
RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.3_Radio_47.23c.35 .3037_7.54.39.28M_release_236989_signed.exe
which was hard to find and a pain to download...i ran this, it found my phone, gave me the usaul warnings, check battery etc, everything set so i told it go ahead, it ran for bout 7 or 8 minutes my phone went to a black screen with htc, did a progress bar then it said finished on the pc. left it for a few more minutes to be sure, then powered on my htc. screen starts flicking grey and white...
ive tried removing the battery, cant get into hboot, get no logos, no vibration, nothing.
sdcard has been removed and sim card.
usb cable inserted charges then goes to flickering screen. pc does not detect any android device connected...
this was last night. searched all the forums i know, googled, found one post similiar but no1 really helped him just told him to take back for warranty...
i live in south africa, dont know of any cellphone shops that can help me, please say its not a lost cause...
before attempting this my hboot was:
0.90.000
radio 7.46.35.08
s-on
.........anything else you need to know just ask....oh was running the htc sync drivers with sync not running on a windows xp sp3 32bit...
any help HUGELY appreciated, sorry for the long post....
clean data storage
dont get tensed ...
as u r s -on so u
can go to htc gallery and tell the people to have u a help....
or reinstall ur rom//...

Hello I'm no expert but I hope to try and help OK so you can turn the phone on, and it flickers and then the screen goes black? Does the phone remain on after the black screen? If so what is the longest you have left it?
Also when you tried to connect it to your PC did you try in *rom mode* or *hboot * mode?
If rom mode try in hboot mode and see if your PC can connect to it. If it can try to re-run the ruu and see if it brings it back to life.
It sounds to me like either the bootloader or your radio is ****ed. And neither are easy to fix. But report back with your findings and we'll take it from there good luck.

I had it running from the rom and running the ruu says device not connected now. Can't load into hboot anymore either...it flickers grey and black continuously and the longest is bout 7min I left it...I'm nt in a panic bt want to get it running for my gf and thanks for taking the time to try help

OK hold down the volume down + power for 10 seconds and then connect to the PC by USB and see if it shows up. And its cool man, always happy to help
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
Holding volume and pressing power causes the flickering to start again...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA
And does the PC connect to it? Because our only real hope, since your s-on is that by holding down power +volume down you can get the PC to connect to it and the see if fastboot is still functional, then run a ruu. If it cannot, you could try to take the ruu, remove the rom.zip from it, (run it on the PC with a process moniter, wait until it moves the file to the temporary folder and take it) rename to pg76img.zip put it on the sdcard, boot into hboot and wait for a bit, then push volume up and hope that it runs the update and fixes your screen. If that doesn't work then you have indeed bricked it.

Hiya Fantastic7,
The same happened to me exactly! I got the ROM from the web (the filename was OK, but the content wasn't.) I went ahead with the flash, now I have a Wildfire S which upon power on produces the following symptoms:
a.) flashes the red LED and a white line at the bottom of the screen blinks, then turnes the screen off, and starts the process in a cycle until the battery is removed
b.) does NOT vibrate or allows me to enter the HBOOT menu (POWER and VOL Down button).
The phone is S-ON (I checked it in the HBOOT before updating the RUU Rom on the phone) but SIM free.
So far the solution I found is to send it off and it'll be taken apart and RE-ROMmed. (Search for fonefunshop - bloody forum doesn't allow me to insert link)
There's a video of the procedure (with a HTC Desire) here: youtu.be /-awHNhxG480
Keep me posted if you find anyhting else helpful.
Why don't you claim your warranty?

yeah..... well mine is back on s-on and when i boot it does a boot loop ( htc logo then turns off then htc logo again)
can some one tell me how to turn on usb debugging mode using pc....:crying:
What happens if you plug the USB into the PC and then quickly boot to hboot?
Also, since you have access to the Bootloader you should download a good copy of the rom. Remove the rom.zip from the ruu and then rename it to pg76img.zip and put it on your sdcard. Reboot to BootLoader and let it run the update.

Long story short my friend gave me a T mobile HTC G2 because it didn't turn on. I opened the phone to find the part where the battery connects to the phone came off the mother board so i solder it back on put the phone back together and turned it on. It booted up normal and came to the lock screen nothing worked the touch wasn't responding so i push power button to turn screen off and then again to turn it back on and the screen worked. I tried guessing his pattern five time and it didnt work it asked me to sign in to my Google account when the screen came up the phone rebooted and it kept doing it every time i turned it on. So i looked on xda how to restore it tried it and im not sure if it restored or not but it strated boot looping. I tried the flashing the pc10img.zip from the root of the sd card it usually says something like version to new or to old or something it didn't work. My phone is not rooted and i don't think usb debugging is on. Any info you guys want just ask. What can i do? How can i fix it? Please help
I'm going to take a guess, that if the battery connection to the motherboard 'broke off', then it's possible you have other physical issues such as the ribbon cable connecting the screen/digitizer to the rest of the phone.
If it were me I would have sent the phone into HTC for hardware warranty (which you can't do now since you soldered it.).
Can you provide some specific information about the phone, can you get into the boot loader, and if so what exact information do you have there? (USB debugging would be easily turned on under system settings, if you can get into it via the screen).

Thanks for replying i don't think anything else is wrong with the phone all the cables were fine. To begin with warranty was already finished. "Yes", i can get into the boot loader/H boot. I can turn on usb debugging because the phone doesn't boot all the way in to android. When you say information what exactly are you looking for?

when you first had the phone it won't boot right? but when you tried fixing the battery connection thingy (sorry I don't know whats it called )

have you tried doing a factory reset?
Power button+volume rocker down (volume down button) to boot into bootloader mode then do a factory reset maybe that would work ?

Would probably have to stick to the original Stock RUU update since you're S-ON (would need S-OFF for any kind of custom recovery, kernel, unsigned packages, etc), so would have to use a signed full package from T-Mobile, I don't know much bout that because I usually have my phones rooted and away from stock as fast as I can.
What stock rom did you find before? links?

Thats is the above link i used and i used all the ones that start with "PC10" I rename them to PC10IMG.zip so the phone can recognize it and it did. The only problem is that after it tries to install is say something along the lines of version is older or newer since i tried multiple packages. One package was going through the process and after that it didn't do anything, it didnt say failed or reboot or anything like that. Ive been trying to fix this for like a week and a half now. Ive even flashed custom PC10IMG.zip to see if it could help but nothing the furthest ive gotten is the phone boots for like 2 seconds the screen is blurry and the shuts off and there is an orange light in top right that wasn't lighting up before. Here are the links for the custom packages

You would have to much it to your exact carrier/phone, Just flashing whatever you get your hands on can be very very risky.
For example for me being on T-Mobile with a T-Mobile branded G2, I would grab PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b_26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971109
(noting the *.15 is the original radio my device was shipped with, though I've upgraded to the newer *.19)
I of course have no intention to returning to complete stock, but it's usually the only course of action for most people stuck with S-ON (and then would look into exploiting/unlocking/rooting again from there).

You would have to much it to your exact carrier/phone, Just flashing whatever you get your hands on can be very very risky.
For example for me being on T-Mobile with a T-Mobile branded G2, I would grab PC10IMG_Vision_TMOUS_1.19.531.1_Radio_12.21.60.09b_26.02.01.15_M2_release_149459_signed.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971109
(noting the *.15 is the original radio my device was shipped with, though I've upgraded to the newer *.19)
I of course have no intention to returning to complete stock, but it's usually the only course of action for most people stuck with S-ON (and then would look into exploiting/unlocking/rooting again from there).

Though ideally using an actual IRC client will work much nicer than a web chat one.
Same problem, but desire z S-ON
Hey guys.
I have the same problem with the boot loop /semi brick. Expect I never had any problem before, with the phone. I have tried taking out the sd card, starting it agian. I have tried without simcard. I have tried to flash the ROM with RUU_Vision_Gingerbread_S_HTC_WWE_2.42.405.2_Radio_12.56.60.25_26.10.04.03_M_release_199043_signed
via Hboot Fastboot USB PLUG mode (which was the only mode the aplication was progressing in until it want to restart the phone in bootloader), but the phone frezzes and the aplication on the computer just keep working, without progress.
The factory reset just frezzes the phone.
The only thing reali seem to not frezze the phone is the revocery option. Here the phone react with restart showing a image of a phone with two green arrows bent around, over the phone. then it turns off the display and vibrate 4-5 times, og stays turn off not reacting to anything other then taking out the battery and you can start the phone once again.

Hi Guys,
I turned my One X off on Saturday morning and put it in the sock drawer. Turned it back on this morning and it wont go past the lock screen before restarting. I can set it in to recovery mode no problem, just can't get any further than lockscreen.
It's Vodafone locked, running stock Voda rom, locked Boootloader. Haven't messed around with this one! Any way to get this working without losing all the content on it? It's all backed up to the cloud except my movies and music and I don't want to lose them!
If not, how can I get it working again?
Many thanks,
Dan

Really? Is this a common fault?

its a common fault for any device that runs off a battery, if there is only a little charge it will start up and get so far then switch off again. try and charge it, if it isn't the problem then at least that is ruled out. but really, if all you did was put it in a drawer there can't be much else wrong with it, unless the the sock monster jumped up and down on it then ran it under the tap when you wern't looking
Ahh, it wasn't turning off, it was continuously rebooting. Its been on charge for quite a while now and its still doing the same.
What's the next step?

If it wont stay off try this :- boot into bootloader then press power button until you see fastboot usb screen then use volume keys to move down to "power down".
Once it is off you need to plug it into a wall charger, not pc, and leave it for at least Two hours, preferably Three or Four hours. if it wont stay off just leave it looping and plugged into the wall charger
No no, the first issue wasn't that it wouldn't turn on due to low battery, it was that it continuously rebooted. Its off and charging now, has been for a good 4 hours. Still not staying on when it gets to lock screen, just continuously rebooting!

You have two option unlock bootlader and flash custom recovery and after this you can mount the sd card from the custom recovery and backup your sd card. After this flash again stock recovery and do factory reset or try from stock recovery factory reset and cross finger don't lose any information on sd card! For stock when you are in bootlader choice RECOVERY and when you are in stock recovery push volume up + power button. That is the way!!!
Can you give me the link to a programme to do this? Absolute novice! Thank you

Novice and can't read either. your problem is not unique and can be found in many threads if you search. in your picture there is a line in red "factory reset" use the volume key to move down to it then press the power button to start the process, then plug the phone in to the wall like I told you earlier and leave it for hours
I'm just looking for some help mate, no need to be like that. You haven't given that advice at all, and without having the correct programme on my computer to do this, I can't really just factory reset.

What program do you need this is just factory reset? Program for what do you need explain me like I am an IDIOT.
Just try it with FACTORY RESET! You dont need any program for this!
you are correct in saying I didn't give that advice, but @Thant did, which is why I said you couldn't read. This is a developers site, by developers for developers, you are a guest, nobody is under any obligation to help you but they do because they are nice but when it comes to trying to help someone who is not taking a blind bit of notice it gets a little annoying. You have all of the answers you need in the previous posts, pay attention to them and look at the picture that YOU provided. in red it says factory reset, use it.
And judging by the state of the screen I wouldn't be surprised if it is a hardware fault.
Thanks for your advice guys. I now have a one x which is working but all the data has been wiped.
I'm sure you two would have started out as novices. The way you spoke to me was unnecessary.

you try repeating yourself about 20 times a day and see if you get annoyed. there is a search button for a reason, all the information you needed was already there, and even when we repeated it you still took no notice so we think it was necessary. thats the end of it!!
Help
Please, I beg the experts for help!
I read all this stuff but I can´t solve my problem. I started used my HTC One X yesterday (it´s a brand new one). After installing some programs from Google Play, the system asked me if I want to make an upgrade from Android (I don´t remember wich version). I agreed with it, the system made a huge download and restarted the equipment. After this, the cell phone keeps in a loop, it starts in the white inicial frame (HTC - quietly brilliant) and boot, all day long...
I tried to make a reboot, factory reset, all the things in the root menu (power + vol down), but the problem remains.
My cell phone´s menu show these informations:

Similar problem!!
Hi,
I bought my One X 1 yr ago. Everything was fine until i updated to sense 5. After about a 3-4 weeks after the update my One X started to continuously reboot. This was the first time. The looping lasted for about 5 min and i felt relieved. After about a month later, same thing repeated and it lasted for abt 2 hrs. Yesterday again it started crazily restarting and it has not stopped until the battery ran out. When i plug in the charger, it again goes to restarting. It is not stopping at all. Also when it restarts it lasts only for 2 secs and i dont get the oppurtunity to simulate battery removal or reset the phone. I'm fed up. !!!PLZ HELP!!!
