[Q] Bricked Desire? Could use some help here :P

Hi guys,
Well basically, I've been a massive idiot and somehow my HTC Desire is now non-responsive. I am running the Oxygen rom from a nandroid backup that I had done previously but now i am unable to access recovery at all. The phone does power on. I do the usual power + back button hold to get into the bootloader then recovery and do the usual ./recovery-mac.sh command in terminal but all I get in response is this now:
mac:~ Dan$ ./recovery-mac.sh
Desire Recovery Mode
Pushing required files to device...
Password:
error: device not found
error: device not found
mac:~ Dan$ error: device not found
I can access the MicroSD card through a computer but the phone won't recognize there is one. WiFi works (but can't download anything from market), radio doesn't as no signal and of course 3G is out of the question.
Is there a solution to my problem?!
From a person in dying need.
EDIT:
Since trying to work this out I have reformatted the microSD card and replaced its contents afterwards, still to no avail.

Try to flash stock ROM from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667
Be careful to select the appropriate RUU.
Turn your phone in fastboot (back + power) and run the exe file. You very probably might need a goldcard. Search the forum for that. Good luck !

you're going to have to talk me through this (step by step) like i'm an idiot please paul! i've downloaded the appropriate RUU but i'm not sure how to apply it. help?

Start your phone in fastboot --> Hold Back button + press power
You should get a menu which has as title FASTBOOT.
Connect your phone to your PC and then run the exe file. You must have HTC Sync installed.
If this fails try making a goldcard. You can find a tutorial here: http://theunlockr.com/2010/03/10/how-to-create-a-goldcard/

the computer won't recognise the phone paul. am going to have to try and make a goldcard i guess. :/

okay i am completely stuck. i have previously made a goldcard but this is just ridiculous now. my sdcard contains the clockwork mod folder so why can't i boot into recovery, what is going wrong with it? if i boot up i'm stuck on the oxygen rom, cant install anything as wifi wont download stuff as sd card isnt recognized (tell me why?), have sporadic signal, no 3g whatsoever.
can someone please explain step by step how to get recovery working again.

bumpbumpbump

So whats your current status?
Your Desire boots into ROM, but doesnt work well.
You cannot but into recovery.
You made a gold card.
Flashing a RUU didnt work.
Your SD is not recognized by the phone or by PC? Is it the goldcard you made?
Correct?

i haven't been able to make a goldcard, i have one previously that i cannot find.
the desire boots into the oxygen rom, ver. 2.0.3 but will not recognise the sd card inserted and wont connect to a mac or computer and show up as a device. i cannot boot into recovery at all as i just get device not found.
confused?

yes ^^
Do you only use Mac or have you access to a pc, too?

If you can get your phone into USB Debugging mode, you can try to flash a brand new recovery via fastboot command.
Maybe your rom got corrupted somehow.
If neither of this works, you should try another sd card I guess.

how do you use the fastboot command?
i have used the ./recovery-mac.sh command in terminal but whats this fastboot command and where can i get it?
EDIT:
I now have fastboot but whenever i try the command ./fastboot-mac flash recovery.img it ends up saying permission denied. is this because i am S-ON?

[Q] installing custom roms

hi...
can any1 tell me how to install custom roms using pc...........
i have searched the forum....but couldnt find any answer.................
sorry for starting a new thread........
thanks in advance

General Method:
- find, download and copy a flashable rom called "fullwipe 1.3" to the sd
- copy the zip with the rom you want to load in it to your sd card
- reboot into cwm recovery
- install zip from sd card
- choose the fullwipe 1.3 zip
- install
- then choose the rom's zip
- install
- reboot
wait for it to load. there you go.
For more advanced rom's, you must make directory's on your sd card for them to work properly. Follow instructions posted by the Rom's developer for proper installation.

thanks bro..........4 all ur help..............
1 more question........
what about using it through the fone......
i mean .....after downloading through the rom manager..........should i follow the same procedure ????

question

I can appreciate that, but I need to know what to do. I try to do that & i get an error while attempting to run privileged commands. Flashing sounds all great but I cant seem to get it to do anything in recovery... error issues trying to do that, or anything else, I also have super user update issues that say they put a recovery image on the sd card & to go boot that from within recovery.
Just hoping to find out why i cant do the simple things everyone speaks of.

Well if you can't flash recovery from Rom Manager then there's something wrong with your root privileges or s-offs... Just to make things clear, how did you try to flash the recovery?

AT THE TOP OF THE BOOTLOADER IT MUST SAY "... ENG S-OFF RL" FOR THIS TO WORK
With the device connected, boot into bootloader and select FASTBOOT and press power once.
It will now show FASTBOOT USB, and give you 4 options.
Download the newest 4.x.x.x version of the cwm recovery from the dev section.
Download My Toolkit and Extract to C:\
In the recovery zip that you downloaded from the dev thread, find the "recovery.img" and extract it to the RESOURCE folder of my toolkit. (make sure its only the recovery.img and not the folders it sits in)
open up a command prompt (windows key + R, type "cmd" and hit enter)
type in: cd "C:\HTC ACE TOOLKIT\RESOURCE" and hit enter.
the prompt should now be in that directory.
now type in the following EXACTLY and press enter afterwards:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Let it flash, and badaboom, you have just flash cwm recovery.

well, in that toolkit i told you to download is a command script that does pretty much what I told you do to for the recovery.
Since you and I have the exact same phone I recommend grabbing the radio from the 2.52 korean build (Radio_12.59.60.26U_26.11.04.21_M), and the rill's as well.
Here is the radio and ril (first 2 links, download via the dropbox links): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=996630
make sure you're in bootloader > fastboot and it says FASTBOOT USB on the screen
take a radio.img from within the zip and drop it into the resource folder and then run the shorcut in the toolkit.
It will now flash the radio to your phone and reboot.
Now with the rill's you flash via cwm recovery, from the RIL zip you downloaded, off your sd card in the same way you would flash a rom.

I would Like to thank you for your help & support, I was a the step of having fastboot usb And on my pc I unziped the radio And droped the image in the resource folder, a window pops up (disk burner) only option to choose is DVD R Drive.... do I have to have the SD card unmouted as a disk drive to the computer?

leave disk burner outta this. lol
The phone should be in bootloader under "fastboot" so the highlighted area will say FASTBOOT USB (since your phone is connected to your pc).
If radio.img is in the RESOURCE folder of my toolkit, go back to the main folder (HTC ACE TOOLKIT) and just double click the "Flash Radio" shorcut.

Changed Rom
Changed rom last night & wanted to know weather I should flash the "rill's" & "radio" each time I change roms. I just did the radio now so hope that cures the tinny sound, also it sounded kinda tinny just playing music, is there a patch or something else to do or is all that fixed in the radio?
Any suggestion on roms to try? using Revolution HD right now.

[GUIDE] Noob's Guide #6: I just HTC Unlocked, what now?

First thing you need to know is that no matter what happens, even if your phone is abducted by rabid kittens, I am not responsible for your actions. Second is that you just voided your warranty, no doubt about it. HTC has your serial number with record that you unlocked your bootloader. Thanks to JAS_21 for the idea for making this guide. So, the next things you are going to want to do are to flash clockworkmod recovery, and then su. Then you can flash a ROM. Let's start with clockworkmod.
You want to get the android-sdk working, which you can find a guide to here.. Then you want to go to this thread. Download the file attached to the post. Use winzip if you have windows or just click on it on mac to unzip the file. Plug your phone into your computer and select "charge only" mode. Copy the cwm img file to the tools folder of the android SDK. Now, it's time to open up ADB. Open up a command prompt on windows or a terminal window on Mac/Linux. Follow these commands.
Code:
cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/platform-tools
adb reboot bootloader
You should now see Fastboot USB on your phone. Open a new command or terminal window. Type the following:
Code:
cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/tools
fastboot flash recovery cwm-recovery-vivow.img
fastboot reboot
Congrats, you have now flashed clockworkmod recovery. Now, onto installing root access. Next, grab the su zip attached to the OP of this thread. Plug your phone into your computer and select "disk drive" mode. Copy the su zip file to the root of your sd card. Unmount your sd card and select "charge only" mode on your computer. Reboot into recovery. The easiest way is probably to open up a command window and type:
Code:
cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/platform-tools
adb reboot recovery
When your phone is in recovery, click "install zip from sd card," then "choose zip from sd card," then the su zip file. Hit the back button once. Then select reboot system now. When your phone reboots, download superuser from the market. Now you are ready to use root apps! If you want to flash a ROM, continue on.
Download the ROM of your choice. If you want to, use my guide for choosing a ROM found here. Download the ROM zip file. Plug your phone into your computer and select "disk drive" mode. Copy the rom zip file to the root of your sd card. Don't unmount your sd card yet.Next, make a copy and put it on your desktop. Use winzip on windows or just click on mac/linux to unzip the rom file. In the root of the ROM, you should see a boot.img file. Copy that to your tools folder of your android-sdk folder. Now, unmount your sd card and select "charge only" mode on your computer. Next, follow the following steps.
Before installing the ROM...
1. Download Titanium Backup from the market, allow superuser permissions, then click menu>batch>backup all user apps.
2. Make sure fastboot is off in settings>power.
3. Put the ROM zip on the root of your SD Card
4. Download SMS Backup and Restore, and backup your SMS.
5. Back up your contacts by checking "back up my data" or something like that under settings/privacy.
How to install the ROM...
1. Turn off phone, and hold power and volume down until you get a white screen that says Hboot.
2.Volume down/up is for scrolling; power is for selecting.
3. Scroll down and select RECOVERY.
4. Scroll down and selected BACKUP AND RESTORE.
5. Select BACKUP and wait for it to finish.
6. Hit the back button to go back to the main menu.
7. Scroll down and select WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET.
8. Scroll down and select WIPE CACHE PARTITION.
9.Hit the back button to go back to the main menu.
10. Scroll down and select ADVANCED, then WIPE DALVIK CACHE.
11. Hit the back button to go back to the main menu.
12. Scroll down and select INSTALL ZIP FROM SD CARD, then CHOOSE ZIP FROM SD CARD, then whatever the ROM zip is.
13. Let it do its thing. This may take 5-10 minutes. DON'T PULL THE BATTERY.
Next, it is time to flash your boot image. Follow these commands.
Code:
cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/platform-tools
adb reboot bootloader
You should now see Fastboot USB on your phone. Open a new command or terminal window. Type the following:
Code:
cd [insert location of android-sdk here]/tools
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
You are done with flashing the ROM now, congrats. To get your data back, follow the steps!
1. Run the initial setup. When you're setting up your google account, make sure the "keep data backed up" or whatever box is checked. This will make sure to restore your/keep your contacts backed up.
2. Redownload Titanium Backup. Hit menu/batch/restore missing apps with data.
3. Redownload SMS B+R. Restore your SMS.
4. Enjoy your new ROM!
I hope this guide clears things up for some people. If you have ideas or suggestions for this guide or others, feel free to comment. If I helped you, please hit the thanks button. I would really appreciate it!

Excellent guide!!!

Had the same issue but solved after looking over the instructions for doing this if you were downgrading. Instead of placing the image file on the root of your sd card, place it in the folder that contains fastboot in your android sdk. Do that and you will be able to flash it and continue with the instructions.

Oh wow. You guys are right. That's a typo. I'll fix that.

Excellent post! Easy to follow, worked...what more could you ask for?

Yeh I thought that might have been the problem. But I ended up relocking the bootloader, downgraded using attn1s tool and after that it was all smooth sailing. Running mikrunny v1.01. But this is an excellent guide

no boot.img?
When I try to flash the boot.img at the last step, it says error: Cannot load 'boot.img'. I tried to start the phone and it sticks as the htc splash screen ... any ideas?

Did you put it in the sdk tools folder?

just wondering...am i going to have to flash the su zip everytime i flash a new rom? Just flashed miui and when I superuser was not on the list of apps. I downloaded it, but have this feeling its not going to work until a flash su.zip

Nope, cuz most roms are already rooted.

I was having trouble getting my ADB to function correctly, so I went with the manual "update.zip" method to flash Clockwork. However, when HBOOT recognizes the PG32IMG.zip file, it just says its "Checking.." forever, and I don't know whether it's working or frozen up. How long is that part supposed to take? I'm so close!

Thanks for this post. Helpful and easy to follow!

frick frack and frick. Now my phone isn't recognized by my computer. Had zero issues with this before. I'm running the latest version of miui and cant get the phone recognized.

Noob question. Is it still possible to flash kernels on HTC sec unlock? Will the boot.img flash need to be done each time from now on? Great guide by the way.
Sent from my ADR6350 using XDA App

Every time you want to flash a Rom or kernel you need to flash the boot.img.

That's an issue with the unlock I'm assuming.
Sent from my Mikrunny'd Superphone using Magic (TapaTalk)

It's unlocked via HTC's unlock tool.
Should i relock the phone, forget this guide, and use attn1's guide?
I already installed ClockworkMod 5.5 and CM7.2 nightlies, everything works unless i have to reboot then it loses the boot image. Any thoughts?

edit: It was because of S-ON. I relocked my phone and used attn1's guide to bring the phone back to hboot 0.97 and then s-off. This guide is not useful it seems if you want to go AOSP.

[Q] Image Unzipping Fail!!!

Hello, I have like eight hours of continuous searching for solve this problem.
I installed like two months ago the Android Revolutionary HD 6.1.5 ROM, i did S-off, Radio-off, Root, etc, following the tutorials of XDA. But i installed the actualization of ARHD 6.2.0 and it works very nice but one day later when i was talking by the phone it stopped, then sense was not responding, and it finally restarted alone.
The big problem is it was only showing the HTC logo and then the screen puts black.
I get into HBoot and it searches for PD98IMG.zip
i putted the PD98IMG.zip in the card and it says this:
- Sd checking...
Loading...[PD98DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PD98DIAG.nhb]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PD98img.zip]
I say yes and it shows:
- Image unzipping fail!
Update Fail!
Press <POWER> to reboot
I tried a lot of RUU`s, like 13 and i can´t find one who works, the only who was acepted was ono withe the recovery only. With USB it does not work either.
I sent it to the company who sold me it and they have no idea about...
I hope you can help me, i am a little dissapointed, because i tried all the RUU`s what i founded in the web.

Try to go into recovery mode. What exactly is the problem. If it is not booting in...go to recovery and select fix permissions... this will solve any problems. If not try to install a rom with full wipe and reboot. If you flash a PD98IMG.zip then once again you need to root, S OFF, etc etc....

Stop what you are doing before you brick your phone.
The PD98 error you are getting happens to all rooted DHD's, and is nothing to worry about (delete it from your sd card). RUU's are for stock devices, or for returning to stock.
Check to make sure you haven't screwed up your root access, and flash a ROM .zip file from the developers thread (in recovery, from your sd card). And always check the checksum before flashing.

Well, actualy, i can`t get into Recovery, it reboots and the screen turns black, the only thing what the phone admits is PD98IMG.zip.
Thank you very much for responding!

Delete that file from your SD card, and check if you can get into recovery. If yes, download superWIPE for ARHD, and ARHD rom and install it ( it's different base i think, so you have to superWipe it )

PD98IMG.zip is the radio, if that's what you need they can all be found here:

Might be worth flashing the latest and seeing if your phone behaves enough afterwards to let you get into recovery.

I take it you are trying from bootloader?
Also does your computer recognize the phone on usb?

Sounds to me your Recovery has an error.
Download and extract Android Flasher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=794638
Boot into Bootloader & select fastboot
Use AndroidFlasher to install a new Recovery image.
Link to my copy of of the previous 4ext Touch recovery, so it should work.
Extract the image to wherever you extracted AndroidFlasher and make sure you select 'already in fastboot' prior to flashing.
Then you should be able to get into Recovery. Full wipe, install ROM, etc.
Hope this solves your problem.

I am trying all this and i think it will work, the problem is my phone is "SHIP S-OFF"
But i don`t know hot to change from Ship to ENG...
Thank you very much for the answer, from now in one week i think my DHD will work again

If memory serves, you only need Eng to change the radio.
But don't quote me on that

I have tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396253
The PD98IMG.zip worked, so i am glad my desire is not bricked yet.
I still not having access to recovery, my phone is SHIP S-OFF not ENG S-OFF and i can`t change the Recovery, i can`t install the SDK drivers for bootloader.
I tried too with Android Flasher, and there doesn`t work because my phone is not ENG S-OFF.
My questions are this: how i can change now to ENG S-OFF?
What else i can do for revive the Desire HD?
Thank a lot for responding this post, i don`t know what i`ll do without all of you!

Personally I see no reason to Eng soff. You can still flash radios and recoveries with just regular soff. Just its done in a different way.
In that thread you posted their is a link for cwr in a pd98img. Just follow the directions I wrote.(its the first section)
But if you are set on getting Eng soff in the dev section you can use jkoljo tool.
Your second question confuses me. You said your phone is now working so what do you mean by reviving your phone?

Well, i tried ADB, the problem now is when i installed the drivers, in the command prompt i cant find my phone.
I was trying with this:
C:\adb devices
List of devices attached
In Device Manager it appairs like: Android Phone>Android ADB Interface
What i can do now?
I know I'm a little annoying, but I will really appreciate your help if we make it work!

Anyone can help with ADB with desire hd?

Well to be able to use command prompt on your computers first off would be to add the adb path which is normally C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools or in C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools
Then you'll be able to use adb commands.
if not while in command prompt, just use the cd command to get in that directory so you can use the adb.exe
per exemple;
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools
then you'll be able to use commands has
adb push [the file which should be in the same place] /data/local/tmp
Then if you just want to run command on your cell interface just write
adb shell
if you're in root you should start to write beside a #
it would look
<C:\[path]>adb shell
# [here you'll run command on your cellphone]
because if you run in command prompt right away
<C:\>adb device
without having the file to get the adb.exe
But as for using adb shell, if your device is connected and activated in debugged mode you'll be fine.

Then you'll be able to use adb commands.
if not while in command prompt, just use the cd command to get in that directory so you can use the adb.exe
per exemple;
cd C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\tools
then you'll be able to use commands has
adb push [the file which should be in the same place] /data/local/tmp
Then if you just want to run command on your cell interface just write
adb shell
if you're in root you should start to write beside a #
it would look
<C:\[path]>adb shell
# [here you'll run command on your cellphone]
because if you run in command prompt right away
<C:\>adb device
without having the file to get the adb.exe
But as for using adb shell, if your device is connected and activated in debugged mode you'll be fine.

I did that, it doesn`t work because it says "error: device not found" i tried reinstalling many times the ADB drivers and another few with the path file, no results. With "adb devices" it says "list of devices attached" then, nothing.
I am really gratefull with all your answers, i hope we can made it work
I have a question more, it`s posible to put it in "debugging mode" from HBOOT?
Thanks a lot!

So, nobody can help me? that who help me will be rewarded!

You said only the recovery pd98 works. Reflash it. After it reboot and hangs take out battery and SD card. Reinsert battery and enter boot. Wait for it to scan, then reinsert sdcard and enter recovery. Wipe and reflash a rom or backup
Edit - still confused, from your pm you suggested that your dhd doesn't work? I need a simple yes it boots or doesn't, before we can go anywhere

SOLVED [Q] Please Help! One X Bricked - ADB List Empty

Guys need some help here.
I was previously on 1.28 with ARHD 4.1.
Recently tried to flash to ARHD 5.1 but during flashing, phone was bricked. It's currently stucks at the htc logo homescreen.
I can enter CWM into recovery mode but I do not have any existing ROMS in my SDcard. I believe we can write into the SD card by using the ADB commands in terminal. But my ADB devices list is being shown as empty
I have installed the latest htc drivers. I suspect this could be because one have to manually select the USB debugging mode on the phone upon plugging in. But since my phone is bricked, how do I go about enabling this option? Kind of lost now
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!

If you can enter in recovery then it is not bricked. Try to mount storage in recovery and put zip file and reflash. Sorry cant help much myself but dont worry someone will tell you exactly what to do. I can reassure you, your phone is not bricked.
Cheers

If you can enter recovery, under mounts and storage or something there's an option called Mount USB Storage. Use that to connect your phone like a thumbdrive to your computer and you can flash any zip file from there. Also, did you flash the boot.img for ARHD via fastboot?

Don't worry you can push files thru adb on to the sdcard, i did it few days back to recover from a similar situation.
The way to get adb working is by booting the phone directly from the recovery image rather than using the recovery on your phone.
Firstly, in case you aren't already using it, get the latest CWM recovery so that you may charge your phone in case its low on battery.
Secondly, get into fastboot mode and boot directly into recovery. (Not very sure about the syntax right now so not writing it here, search the forum.. its there somewhere)
Next, make sure sdcard & data are mounted in the recovery under "mounts & storage".
Now you can check if adb is working thru devices (most probably it should). Once that is confirmed, you are ready to push files thru adb & flash them.
Hope this helps...

problem solved. +)
cheers to all!
have a great day ahead!
