I did it with aahk tool. it said me that the procedure was done... but then my phone was bricked. I tried to do the procedure to come back still with aahk tool, but in the HBOOT mode it doesn't find my device.
Thanks

When you said that fastboot gave you an error what was the error OP.
Does fastboot hang at all after issuing a command ?
I can help if you want i have unbricked 2 DHD's thus far.

Right OK, So you need to Unlock your bootloader with http://www.htcdev.com/ follow the instructions on that site.
Once you have unlocked it the unlock file keep as you need to lock the bootloader again to flash the rru after.
I have instructions on how to do it S-Off with the files if you PM me i can give you a link!

[Q] Stuck on recovery access mode

Hi I have an HTC Inspire HD, ATT as provider.
I successfully unlocked it thru HTCDEV and installed 4EXT; did a backup successfully and then tried to install Android Revolution HD.
Since then I get stuck on the HTC white screen.
It does not boot. In recovery access, see the following:

Hi, when you say ROM, what do you mean; when I backedup with 4ext it confirmed a successful backup but I have no idea where it is located; can you guide me through? where do I find the boot.img

I have been trying so many things and getting very much confused with Hboot, Fastboot.
Honestly been on both screen and do not see much difference.
If you do not mind suggesting steps and I will try them out and will share what I experience.

Then you're not in fastboot. You get to fastboot by going to hboot (reboot while holding power and volume-down), navigating to "fastboot" with the power buttons, and selecting it with the power button. Also, again, the OP seems to imply that your bootloader isn't unlocked. If it is, hboot would say so at the top.

FASTBOOT USB
the phone is stuck on the green htc logo with a white background
my computer no longer shows a folder for the phone when i plug in usb (im certain that i made a mistake by trying a factory reset using the hboot screen after this occured) which would undoubtedly remove usb debugging. and set to default charge only setting
i can use vol dwn + pwr to go into bootloader screen (obviously)
I tried using 2 different RUU's (both labeled HTC Android Phone ROM Utility 1.0.3.2011) because that seemed to help others
It progresses to install ruu. Phone shows black background and htc logo in grey but goes no further, just hangs like that forever, when i unplug usb at that point the grey logo disappears and it shows that ruu failed! in orange colors
the rom update utility shows error 155:unknown error
then : The ROM Utility cannot update your android phone
Please get the correct ROM update utility and try again
the htcdev site only shows one utility for htc desire hd (RUU_HTC Desire Android 2.3 Upgrade (Gingerbread))
i also tried using (RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_225512_signed)
typing adb devices in cmd prompt shows no devices listed using sdk
the ruu had previously listed image version 2.47.502.7
it updated to image version 2.52.0.0 before i used htcdev to unlock it
now it tries to upgrade from 2.52 to 3.12.405.1 but won't
i followed the steps in this thread
"[how to]unlock inspire build 3.20.502.52 with htcdev in preparation to use AAHK" (you have to google it cus forum wont allow me to post url)
i didnt notice the red warning about this post being outdated OR that its a method for a different build It was 3am! and i was tired
it seemed to work fine just after the unlock in step 2
but i started having issues after i finished step 3
also if flashing an image file onto the SD card is the only route then how is that possible if my pc doesnt have access to the files
it only makes a sound when i plug it in
yes im a noob
please help
i believe that this is fixable since i read a comment that any htcdev unlocked phone is fixable...fingers crossed
is this a soft brick?
how do fix this so i can root this phone
and what method is (safest) best for rooting?
Your bootloader is already unlocked. Flash a custom recovery through fastboot and flash a ROM from there.

Does the phone not go past this screen?
Did you update the phone before this happened? It looks like someone's tampered with the phone and tried to relock it while running a custom operating system, in return the phone will throw a Security Warning.
Head over to www.htcdev.com and sign up, unlock bootloader.

Can't be, the bootloader is still originally locked, the flag on the bootloader should say relocked already if they did that. I think it's a issue with the battery as it seems very low looking at that message a bit down below.
Never advise people to unlock a "locked" bootloader because it could break potentially good warranty !

All very true, knowing how hboot firmware works; Security Warning seems to show up when the /system partitions been altered. But this seems new.
Here Katie, try to install this on your phone: http://androidruu.com/getdownload.p...Radio_5.1204.162.29_release_302015_signed.exe you will not require a bootloader unlock. You're going to have to run this using a computer, if you get "phone not detected" issues, install this: http://www.mediafire.com/?eqrqb44r3ot18g1
Good luck.

You can't mess with a system on a s-on hox without a unlocked bootloader or s-off, so it should say relocked in any way. Even if it was s-off, making an s-off hox back to locked and s-on will proper brick the device !
That ruu will not work. The device is s-on and has a hboot of 1.72 and you can t downgrade a hox that is s-on. That ruu contains a Hboot of 1.39.
@katie1
Save yourself the hassle and don't try the ruu, i already know the outcome. You have 3 choices
1: turn the phone off via the fastboot/bootloader menu, if it doesn't turn off or charge you can try the battery charge script via fastboot. Download the following file and place it in the fastboot folder on the pc and execute it with the phone in fastboot usb mode (bootloader)
https://www.dropbox.com/s/aaah8gqz8j024xz/Batt script.bat
It will continuously reboot the bootloader and charge the battery. It's worth to try......
2: claim your warranty at the seller (at least contact the seller about this issue because it can't be your fault at all)
3: unlock the bootloader via the HTC dev site (which may break your warranty) and flash a custom rom. But you need to get the device charged first, see #1
I would go for option #2 first

You already had an unlocked bootloader so unlock it and flash a custom recovery, from there you follow procedures to install a new rom.

nvm i fixed that problem and now I'm back to square one. maybe someone could point me in the right direction from here.
I'm currently on 4.4.3 kk and am trying to get back to stock from my custom rom. clearly the ruu I used was the incorrect method and the other method I was going to try which involves using hasoon's toolkit appears to not be the answer because when i went to check the cid the version number was not available ( unless im missing something here)
any assistance that someone is willing to offer would be appreciated.
You have to re-lock your bootloader before you run the RUU.
