Help HTC Desire HD Vodafone (stuck): flashing custom rom after unlocking bootloader

Hi,
I need your kind advice in fixing my issue. I have DHD Vodafone 3.13.161.3 GB 2.3.5.
I unlocked the phone using HTC official method, phone got restored to factory default and I tried to flash a custom rom without knowing that I need to change the CID.
The phone starts but get stuck on HTC logo, I have EXT4 recovery installed already.
Tried wiping and factory reset but it seems that its of no use. I can boot to hboot, it says unlocked (highlighted) and s-on.
I did try to make a goldcard, put the sdcard in another phone and used the goldcard helper app then went to the site and submitted the CID and downloaded the image and followed the steps.
(got mmc0 and mmc1, I took mmc1 by manually writting it)
I copied another official rom PD98IMG.ZIP downloaded from the net for WWE and ARA versions copied them to SDcard and got into hboot but after loading it says wrong image and goes back to hboot.
I deseparate to get it fixed, would you plz provide some guidance on how to fix it since I was not able to get Vodafone RUU or any other mechanism to fix!
Appreciate your assistance and efforts..

If you unlocked from HTCdev you have to flash kernel in fast boot rename boot.IMG to pd98img.zip and accept update. Then remove or rename to pd98img.zip.bak so it doesn't keep updating. It's because of s-on you should be able to downgrade hboot and s-off.

Thanks for your response Sammael,
Just some background info about my case:
I have DHD from Vodafone UK which was on the latest rom from Vodafone 2.3.5, I did bootloader unlock using HTCDev then flashed Ext4 recovery.
I tried flashing a custom rooted rom based on WWE version using the recovery mode (install zip from sdcard) after which I got the phone stuck on HTC logo screen everytime I try to power it on.
I tried using WWE RUUs with fastboot usb but got err155, I downloaded Vodafone PD98IMG.zip from that was uploaded by a guy in another forum but copying it to the sdcard and loading it using hboot gave me wrong image/rom message. I tried running WWE RUU then copying the PD98IMG.zip to the temp folder and renaming it to rom.zip after deleting the original rom.zip but again I got err155.
I need at least to get back on Vodafone stock rom and fix the problem, I am not sure if I need to relock the bootloader and if I must flash back the stock recovery.
Can anyone help with this as I have been trying different options for the last 4 days and all the tools that were mentioned need to have a functional phone to do usb debugging and charge only mode!

First will cover the obvious you should have unlocked via HTC dev. The hack kit is the way to go about things
Now for the fix.
Download a custom rom on PC, have androidsdk setup
Boot into recovery and reinstall your custom from.(remember to full wipe).
Once complete plug phone into PC and run adb reboot bootloader.
Once in boot loader select fast boot if its not already selected.(should read fast boot USB)
Now in the custom rom you download open it and take out the boot.img and put it wherever you have adb/fast boot folders
Then type the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot reboot
You will have to do this every time you flash a new rom, since you HTC dev unlocked. I would search into relocking boot loader and using the hack kit

Hi marsdta,
I sort of worried about doing what you suggested as my device still show the CID as VODAP001. Its on Ship S-On and the problem I got into was by flashing a custom rom through CWM.
Just to provide more info, I got the below details by running fastboot command getvar all. I also tried to run a WWE RUU with the goldcard plugged into my DHD but got this error message version-main failed status malformed 1 bytes!!

I had some progress, relocked the bootloader and copied the PD98IMG.ZIP to sdcard. The phone starts loading the PD98IMG and then running the check, it fails on some point which I think might be the PD98IMG I got is older than the software raido/hboot installed on my phone. Below are the details.
Checking PD98IMG.zip
Main version older!
update failed
Press <Power> to reboot
The PD98IMG.zip has an android-info.txt that contains the following:

I think I may need the latest PD98IMG.zip to reflash the phone back to Vodafone stock software, plz correct me if I am wrong?
The PD98IMG.zip which was provided a vodafone uk phone owner seems to check the version of my phone's current state hboot/radio.
Is there any place where I can get the latest PD98IMG.zip even if I have to pay for it?

I haven't been able to find the newest ruu for your branded device. Best I can say is keep looking. But if you can't find it your going to have to flash a from how I suggested to get a working phone.
Or maybe wait and see if anyone has other ideas to try

Hi marsdta,
Thanks for your contribution..
I have relocked my bootloader, tried flashing the PD98IMG.zip but I got main version is older message.

Did you try getting S-OFF via the Advanced Ace Hack Kit? I got a Vodafone DHD on release in Aus and was prompted to make a gold card, eventually managed S-OFF without one.

You get the main version older because your son. And you get the failed remote because your relocked the bootloader. Personally at this point I would unlock the boat loader again, flash cwr then a from and then its boot.img to get a working phone. Then if the pd98img/ruu that you need comes available go back and root properly. But for now I would say to at least get it in a useable state

Hi marsdta,
Thanks again. Just a quick clarification, which boot.img do you suggest I should flash after unlocking the bootloader and flashing cwm?

Depends on what rom you want to install.
So let's say you want to flash cm. Download the rom on your pc. Place a copy of it on your SD card as well. Boot into cwr and flash as usual. Once complete boot into the boot loader.(using adb reboot boatlader is convenient, but you could do it manually by pulley battery and powering up with volume down+power button)
Then take out the boot.img of cm zip and flash as you tried earlier(fastboot flash boot boot.img)
Then reboot phone

Hi.
I have the same problem as described here. But my desire HD is the spanish vodafone version.
I found the original RUU here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B7S5vzd6Qvh9SDR4cmRwTGZWaXc/edit?usp=sharing
- I will start renaming the file to PD98IMG.zip in the SD card
- Start in bootloader mode
- Push vol+ to start the flashing

Humano, did it work?
Sent from my ATRIX HD

[Q] Any recovery from this brick?

Hi All,
I'm hoping an expert will be able to help me. I have a Desire HD that a friend has asked me to have a look at knowing that I have tinkered around with my android phones. She said it "just happened" while she was out riding her bike one day.
Basically, all I'm getting is the green on white HTC logo regardless of what I try. I can get into HBOOT & fastboot and have tried to flash recovery.img, run RUU, flash boot.img and flash PD98IMG.zip (both via fastboot & direct from root of SD card). I obviously couldn't root the device using AAHK as I can't boot into the phone to enable USB debugging and adb obviously won't work for the same reason.
I've tried flashing both 4ext & CWM recoveries neither of which work. When I try to boot into recovery using by selecting that option in HBOOT it just goes straight back to the green on white HTC logo.
In a vein attempt to get anywhere with it I managed to "unlock" the bootloader using htcdev instructions but it hasn't succeeded in helping with the problem.
HBOOT details are as follows:

The RUU I have tried works to a point and then fails but I'm guessing it's because I need the Vodafone UK RUU which doesn't seem to be anywhere. I tried this one to no avail
Code:

If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

ok, are you sure that you actually flashed recovery successfully? unless you have a messed motherboard, you should be able to flash recovery image and then a custom rom.
A RUU won´t work as you have unlocked the bootloader. Make sure that you are flashing the recovery from fastboot and you get the OKAY. Finished in the cmd / terminal session.
If you need further help, just let me know. :good:

Stuck on bootloader.

Hi !
I have a problem with my HTC DHD device. I unlocked it and rooted it a long time ago, using goldcard, installed Rom Manager, flashed the recovery, install CM...and all of a sudden, my phone shutted down, and couldn't stop rebooting, got the green HTC logo, and he reboot.
I had this problem a few month ago, i tried several things, that put my phone back in S-ON.

I can't access to recovery, and i can't boot on anything else than the HBOOT or FASTBOOT mode.
I tried to unlock from htc dev, but it says that i need to upgrade my HBOOT before using htcdev tool.
As i was back in S-ON mode, i tried severals RUU Roms.
As the getvar all says i'm actually running 2.50.405.2, so i tried to install a clean RUU using

( Got a french HTC DESIRE HD )
I'd like to flash a new recovery to make everything ok again. But i'm stuck, there is no ruu working, and i can't unlock bootloader, nor reinstall a recovery
everytime i try to flash something into any directory, i got this signature failed error.
Code:

I tried different RUU versions, all above the actual one or at least the same version.
The thing is that i can't actually put it back on its original configuration. CID is normal though, i can't find the original recovery, i'd like to flash it, i think it's the only thing that remains modified on the phone.

I had the exact same problem as you have when i bought the phone. AAHK was working back then and even with aahk the phone could not be fixed and the with the help of the devs on irc chat i managed to fix it
They told me that my phone was previously rooted and s-off but a strange RUU was flashed so they told me to flash cwm through fasboot and flash a custom rom.
Wich i did and it worked.
P.S. you might wanna try another sd card, this one might be fried ( faulty mem blocks)

Thanks for your answer, your previous problem exactly matches with mine. I'll try what you've said, the thing is that i'm actually not rooted, and S-ON, i can't use htcdev/unlockbootloader, because de version of my bootloader is too old ( i haven't used the phone for a while ) -
In fact :
- To solve my problem, like u said i have to flash CWM and a custom rom
- To flash a recovery, i need to unlock bootloader
- To unlock bootloader, i need to upgrade my bootloader
- To flash a ruu and upgrade my bootloader i need to have an original recovery
- Got a recovery problem i need another one, so let's flash CWM ( repeat everything )

1) conect phone to pc, run instalation ruu
2) during instalation process find in win/temp folder file named rom.zip
3) copy this file into folder with adb and fastboot files
4) cancel instalation
5) in phone run bootloader than fastboot
6) run command prompt in folder with adb, fastboot and rom files, than type "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
7) wait a few minute until phone goes in ruu install mode
8) than from command prompt type "fastboot flash zip room.zip", if you get error repeat once again without exiting ruu install mode (some times is needed to do it twice)
9) when install finish type "fastboot reboot" and now phone should be repaired
You can do factory reset before and after.

HTC One - stuck in bootloader/fastboot and no recovery

As you can see in the picture the phone boots up to this screen. A friend of mine bought an HTC One on ebay and he found out it was rooted/unlocked so he went to put it back to stock and may have bricked the device while doing so.
EDIT: so I am able to use fastboot, but not adb because I can't get into Windows. Flashing the stock Verizon RUU I found still doesn't get me anywhere though.
Is there any hope for this device? Thanks in advance!

You have to select bootloader to get to the recovery option. What kind of computer are you using and whats it running?

Yea I saw that after messing around with it some more. It is Windows 7 x64.
I tried the one at the bottom of the page as I can't find one anywhere else. I also used the commands at the bottom to try and flash it.
http://www.htc1guru.com/downloads/ruu-zip-downloads/

When you go to device manager on your pc with the phone pluged in and in fastboot mode, does it show android phone or unknown device? Try using these drivers http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/ADB/ADB_Drivers.zip
You need a signed ruu which you can get here http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RUUs/2....2_NV_VZW_3.71_002_release_341019_signed_2.zip
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip file.zip
May fail with flush error do above command again.

OK cool I will try that once it downloads. It shows "My HTC" in the device manager. Also with the fastboot devices command it does give me the device ID.
EDIT: That worked! Thanks a lot for the RUU file, as I could not find that anywhere.

Hello. A friend of mine has the same problem. She tried to flash this RUU: "RUU Zip M7_WL_JB_50_VZW_1.10.605.10_decrypted" but the phone doesn't boot. Here is more info about the problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2688936
Can she flash the RUU posted here?
This is what the hboot says:

Thank you very much.

She can, but since she is s-off, its better to flash the decrypted one. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RUUs/2.10.605.1/PN07IMG_M7_WL_JB_50_VZW_2.10.605.1_DECRYPT.zip

First, thank you very much. She changed the CID to VZW__001. That's not a problem, right?
Does the CID and MID have to be compatible with the RUU? She has this MID: PN0731000.
Downloading this RUU, will report back.
Again, thank you.

Yes the cid and mid need to match the ruu. What you have now are the correct ones. However 11111111 is super cid, which would have also worked.

Hello again. Before we try to flash the RUU, I would like to ask you the steps to do it. This is what we gonna do:
1. Download RUU
2. Rename to "ruu.zip" (Optional)
3. Enter fastboot mode
4. enter "fastboot oem rebootRUU" - You should not see a silver HTC logo on your device.
5. enter "fastboot flash zip ruu.zip" - The first time you execute this command, it only prepares the flash
6. As soon as the flash is done preparing, enter the same exact command again "fastboot flash zip ruu.zip"
7. Now you'll see a little green progress bar on your phone. This does not need to reach 100%. As soon as your command window is finished, you can just "fastboot reboot".
8. You should be set back to fully stock HTC One.
And that's it? Nothing else is needed, right?
EDIT: we flashed the RUU. Now the phone boots always in fastboot. No matter what option we choose, the phone does nothing and goes back to fastboot. On the bottom of hboot there is a new line in red: "Active cmdline overflow! (1073 Bytes)"

Ok try changing the cid back to 11111111 super cid, then run the ruu again and see what happens. Before doing both, use the cmd
fastboot erase cache

Hello. We just did it, and still the same problem. We were reading that some people solved this by doing a downgrade to hboot 1.44. But I don't want to make this problem worse.

You can try it, its worth a shot. Just flash an older ruu. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RUUs/. Dont remember which one goes with 1.44

You can't be more kind. We made a downgrade, and now we can use CWM again. (We did the downgrade before reading your post, so we didn't use an older RUU) Now thinking hwat should be the next step: flashing a ROM (custom or stock, mounting a pendrive) or flashing an older RUU or anything else. Again, dude, you're awesome.

I'm stuck in a similar situation and any help would be appreciated so I don't screw this up. I can get into the bootloader but not into recovery (gets to the first TWRP screen then reboots). Safe mode works fine too.

I can get into ADB. Would just like to know if I need to flash a new RUU or should I flash updated TWRP first? And the proper commands so I don't botch this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I would try reflashing twrp first. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RECOVERIES/twrp/openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.4-m7vzw.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Didn't work. Got to the TWRP splash screen and back into the bootloop again.

Ok then i would do an ruu. http://vzw1files.dyndns.org/RUUs/
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip nameoffile.zip (may fail with flush error, just do the cmd again)
fastboot reboot

Hi,
Similar problem here.
This is my situation:
*** TAMPERED ***
*** LOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***
M7_WLV PVT SHIP S-ON RH
HBOOT-1.56.0000
RADIO-1.13.41.0109_2
OpenDSP-v32.120.274.0909
OS-3.11.605.1
CID: VZW__001
MID: PN0731000
Only fastboot. Can't access to recovey (CWM). Can't access to OS, so no adb.
Every time I try to RUU it gives the "Signature verify fail" message.
So, I tried encrypted ROMs (those at vzw1files. dyndns. org), and I could go a step forward; but the flashing hungs up after giving this messages:
(bootloader) adopting the signature contained in this image...
(bootloader) signature checking...
(bootloader) rom parsing start ...
(bootloader) rom parsing finish ...
(bootloader) zip header checking...
(bootloader) zip info parsing...
(bootloader) Read zipped android_info fail
Thanks in advance, I hope I didn't screw it up.

The problem is nicouy that you are s-on, and on the newest kk firmware. An s-on phone will not allow you to "downgrade" firmware, and we do not yet have the latest ruu available, at least to my knowledge. So your kind of screwed right now untill we get our hands on a kk ruu.

Im not 100% sure if this will work for you, but this is how i unbricked my DZ.
I can see you already have fastboot running in your pc, good.
Boot into bootloader and go into fastboot there.
Then in cmd use fastboot oem rebootRUU
when your phone is in RUU, type:
fastboot -w
fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip it will propably give some error message and says to flush image immediately, so type fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip again.
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now you should have engineering hboot running.
PC10IMG.zip file mentioned can be downloaded here : http://files.virtuousrom.com/vision/misc/PC10IMG.zip
