Who think he/she can help me?
I was trying to completely clean my DHD for my girlfriend. So I wiped is all off via all the information on this forum.
Tried to flash ROM, RUU, Bootloader and Kernel. (after some advices)
Now I have a big problem I think....
I cannot get into my bootloader anymore, my DHD is starting with HTC logo and then continues with Android startup and keep hanging in there.
Vol. down + Power is not getting me into bootloader.
Flashing from CMD does not seem to work either because I cannot get the DHD to connect via USB. (cable is connected to DHD and laptop)
If you can help me.... my girlfriend and I would be much gratefull.
Greetings,
Remco

I pulled my battery for about 8 hours, so the length of pulling does not seem to be issue.
But again thanks for helping to find a solution.

what i know is accessed to the phone bootloader it just have two optional way..
first...with pressing and hole volume down+power
second..with adb command while the phone is already booting inside the rom..and off course with already enabling USB debugging too in system settings..
if both way doesn't work to access your bootloader...i think the last change is you must flashing it again the from beginning with RIFF BOX hardware and JTAG software if you have it..or take the phone to services center of HTC..
sorry...can't help more than this..

Does your phone vibrate (4x or 7x) when you turn it on?
It vibrates ones when showing the HTC startup logo.

yap..RIFFBOX is a flashing hardware..
yes i know..if you already broken your phone cause of changing software by your self..htc will not recover your phone under they warranty
you already had loosing your phone warranty.. but i think that's not mean they can't help and fix your phone..off course without warranty (if they already know or detected that you already fault your warranty) then they will charge you with some of cost..
if so..with the hope of luck..then you can try brought your phone to the htc service center..then let they're analyst your phone and make decision about your valid warranty..who knows you already lucky then they don't know what are you already do it previously to that phone..
note : this all mean that's if your DHD is still recover under warranty by time..right..
hopefully your DHD will fixed soon..and good luck..

HI all! It will be more then great if anybody can help me.
The story is simple one guy decide to unlock his Diamond throw some free way ( I don't know how exectly ) he end with error 260 and DEAD Diamond.
The device does not get into bootloader when pressing Vol_- + reset.
Now this Diamond in my hands.
Can anyone please advice what can I do? can I flash ROM?
P.S. this phone are new and Orange UK branded.
Please help and sorry for my poor English.
something? PLEASE!
You mention you can not get into boot loader by pressing
Vol_- + reset.

On the Diamond you can access bootloader by jsut reseting and holding down the "Vol Down" Key only...
Try this and report back.
Where is this error 260 indicated ? If the ROM starts up and shows some error, the bootloader will work for sure.

Have you tried another battery?

2. with a fully charged battery, reset your device (hard reset) press Volume down + centre round button + soft reset(behind battery cover) all at the same time, release soft reset but keep holding volume down + centre button. You should now have a white screen advising you what to do to complete the hard reset.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Only to make a bit easy this step cause in this way one would be an octopus , soft reset your device with stylus and then, within 3 seconds, hold Vol down + centre round button until you see the tricolour screen. Release the buttons and follow the instructions (Press Vol Up to restore to manufactured settings).
This is the typical case when someone didnt do his homework. Im sure you didnt read the stickies. Poeple be warned, flashing your device can kill it if you dont have a clue on what you are doing. Ive seen a bunch of n00bs bricking their devices just because the didnt read the forum. This question has been ansewred a lot.

sorry friend to hear but i have one solution may be it can work u just flash hard spl v 1.93 olinex from here:http://ficca.bounceme.net/download/HARDSpl_Diamond_OliNex_1.93_Unsigned.zip just flash this hspl and after flashing this u can flash any rom but now u just flash this hspl if u got 100% then ur prob is solve so pls tell me what happen after that hope every thing will be alright good luck
Error 260 is a USB communication error. Did this happen during sim unlock or during hardspl install because the thread title says one thing and your post says another.

a did some measurements, the battery was 2.8V, i put it on the phone, put the phone in ccharger, and it did charge the batery to 3.7V(even the baterry led is not working).. i measured the phone also it gives 4.15V to the battery... i dont know is he charging correctly.. but it's charging the battery for sure.. ..... any clues ppl?
Further to my last thread about a possible bricked DHD, I've come to realise that my volume down key seems to be stuck. Now every time I boot I go into HBOOT and cant toggle between the options once I'm in there. So to boot up I have to use ADB but because the volume down is stuck in, this automatically boots in SAFE MODE. I can install fresh Roms, restore/backup etc in recovery (again via ADB), but ultimately, when I boot up, it goes into SAFE. This is highly annoying as I cant download or use any 3rd party apps. Is there any way to disable this? Even using ADB somehow? If any of you clever dudescan help, it'll be worth numerous cyber pints!! Thanks in hope, Greg

Hi, try this to get fastboot
You can hold back and power to get fastboot, from there you can hit power to get bootloader, vol up to cycle round to recovery, power to select.

Thanks, but I can get into fastboot no problem, due to my volume key being jammed down. Every time I power up I go into fastboot. The problem I have is booting from fastboot/recovery/off results in safe mode due to the key being stuck. What I need to be able to do is disable safe mode using command prompt somehow.

Ok, sorry misundestood post.Thats annoying. I have rooted many a phone and normally a reboot should take it out of safe mode. And removing battery for a few minutes does a soft reset which clears a number of items. I am not aware of an adb shell command to remove from SM sorry..
I do recall some time ago seeing a youtube video that showed how to fix the stuck key (from memory I think it may have originated from HTC).
If this does't work then may be time to seek harwdare repairer or replacement if under warranty :-(

Sorry for late response bit of a family emergency. Its hard to say, some say you should put it back others so don't worry. Personally I think rectifying a stuck button will not be due to which rom you have on your phone.

Hi,
I have the same problem as you just described (also a rooted dhd, with broken volume key, stuck in safe mode).
Did HTC fix it for you? Or has anybody a different solution, because I have dropped my phone a couple of times and are wondering if it still is within the warranty because of that.
Thanx

If you have stuck key then it will no doubt be a repair job. If you have dropped your phone then it is highly unlikely it will covered under STD phone warranty
So you could be stuck paying for the repair
i already searched a lot, but i didn't find anything useful so i post here hoping that someone can help me. i really need my phone so before send it to htc service i have to try to get it back working.
simply yesterday my phone went off because of low battery. when i got back home i try to charge it, but nothing happened. so i tried using pc in order to see if something happen, and led started to blink slow (orange led). so i turned it on, and it worked. then i was using it (connected to the wall charger) and it frozed, at 9% battery. so i tried to restart it (by pressing power and vol down), but nothing happened... it was completely dead, i tried:
-wall-charger;
-pc-usb;
-change different charger/different usb cables);
-i left it the night connected to the charger);
-no adb, and obviously i can't get the phone in recovery/bootloader/fastboot...
i was on hboot 1.3x... don't remember which number cause i updated the hboot a few days ago. i was on viper rom and i was using the tripndroid kernel based on official nvidia sources (really like their works )
hoping that someone can help me
however in the next days i will send it back to htc but i need to try something cause i really need my phone in those days and i have no replacement. will htc repair my phone for free? (remember that i unlocked it)
Crazy thing. U can't put the phone in bootloader mod?

That means your phone is broken. It needs a new motherboard.
Nobody has recovered from that. Some people have managed to get the phone working after APX, but it seems to go back to APX mode.
Sorry. Back to HTC it goes...
ok thanks... it is and hardware fault or it's because of the custom rom/kernel?

Hi I,m hoping someone can help me on here , I tried to root my phone a couple of weeks ago I successfully unlocked the bootloader but could not root for some reason, then i recieved a settings update from orange UK in the middle of the night , next morning the phone won't turn on at all not even to the boot screen , I sent it off to orange to be repaired and because I unlocked it they won;t repair it however they did manage to get to the boot screen but won't tell me how , they have returned the phone to me and its still the same, so any ideas what I can do now , thanks in advance
Try factory reset and see whether the phone boots up or not! if not then post the result of the following command here:
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
You can do two things now: Go full stock or flash a custom ROM...

Hold down the power button + vol down button together until you get to the bootloader...(white screen with 3 android figures at the bottom)...
Keep it pressed together and make sure you didn't release any of the button...
If it still doesn't show up then connect it to your wall charger and let it charge for an hour or so and then try to do it!

If you are still under warranty, try sending it to HTC or your carrier...

That's great news! If your phone can get into bootloader, you can might be able to go to fastboot USB.. which means you can flash a recovery and hence flash a custom rom or go full stock!

Your in the stock recovery pal. Hold down the power and volume keys and you will eventually get some options on the screen. Once they come up use the volume buttons to scroll and power to select. Btw, i suspect you have a htc wildfire S not the htc wildfire. So this would be the wrong forum for you if your phone does not have a trackpad at the bottom of the screen (looks like a circle with a dot in it) then you have the S model.

Okay, pull the battery out. Then put it back in after 5 seconds. Hold down volume down, then power and keep both pressed down until a wite screen with some writing comes up. There it should say hboot, a version number and s-on or s-off. What does yours say?

Ah ha! Fantastic whoever else had this phone before you has done most of the hard work and security unlocked the bootloader already. http://dl-1.va.us.xda-developers.c...zip?key=kzoSRLwAaSgJsyXiuKJS4A&ts=1431506306 download this and place it onto your sdcard. Reboot into hboot and your hboot should request you to update the recovery. Select yes with volume up. After this you should reboot back into hboot without the sdcard in. Then select recovery from hboot and boot into it.
Once your in recovery you could either:
1. Wipe the data, cache and dalvik cache and then reboot the phone. This will reset the phone and hopefully fix and voot related issues.
2. Wipe the phone entirely and install a new rom. Cyanogenmod 7 is a good lightweight rom. Please look at the development section for all the roms available.
Just one question though, that screen damage looks like bad. Do you know what happened?

As I have said I recommend Cyanogenmod 7. Read the thread here Its a custom version but its more recent.
Now your screen, I suspect that those marks are from heat damage. Most likely from whoever else had the phone overclocking it. This could be a telltale sign of hardware damage through excessive use and it may never boot properly. I thought I should mention that.
Well i thats case would like to ask one more thing we will be able to fix it or not or its not worth it.

Depends, this phone is an old model as far as mobile phones are concerned. the cost of a motherboard and new lcd + digitizer could be the same cost as the phone in a used condition.
I work it out as £23.13 as the cheapest you could get the parts but then you would need to do a full tear down of the device in order to replace most of it. I mean basically your only keeping the frame, trackball, camera and some rubber bits.
Cheapest I can find to buy it in the uk is £25 ( with you needing to sim unlock it).
But I would add that you might as well try get cm7 on the device. The only thing it will cost you is time and you never know, the phone might be usable with CM7 on it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
OK bro let me first give a try with the cm7 rom and see if its work and hoping for the best

Sorry, i forgot to mention, the controls for the recovery are different from hboot. Push trackball to select items, power is now the back button.

I tried to install stock rom that i have downloaded from HTC Website and that is not getting installed lets hope CM7 will work i can see the ultrabeam revolutionary Logo on the screen right now its still thinking up
