Hi, I recently upgraded phones and wanted to unroot my desire and return to stock so i could sell it on. I read up about it and it didn't seem to tough. I downloaded an RUU and i ran it through my phone in fast boot rather than HTC sync as my phone was running a none sense ROM. I ran it and it seemed to be working when at around 60% complete it flashed an error on my PC that it couldn't open a file and that i should download a complete RUU and try again. I have since tried several RUU's and every time its the same. Now when i turn on the device its got a fast boot screen but i cannot go any further, when i plug into the PC it goes black with error triangles in each corner.
I didnt downgrade the HBOOT first and it was using the sense one rather than stock, i guessed that this would be done through the RUU.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
At what stage of the process do you receive an error? if you turn the phone on while unplugged from USB it should say FAIL by one of the categories. It is only bricked if the RADIO category says FAIL.
What hboot you are on now?
Did you downgrade to s-on?
What brand did phone had originally and what ruus have you tried?
Swyped from SGS2.
If your desire still reacts, it's not bricked. If your desire is bricked, it would not be nothing more than an expensive paperweight. So please change the thread title.

unplug it from USB then turn it on, it should be in bootloader (RUU mode), and should say what failed.

I'm getting a USB error now so not even getting chance to try it out, its the same for the other RUU's too so its not a bad download.
If when i start my phone and plug it into a USB when i unplug it goes to a bootloader screen and says
Alpharev Sense

RUU
I cannot open anything and pressing any button does not do anything, when i plug back in it goes back to the black screen
To avoid the usb connection error, flash the ruu directly via the PB99IMG.zip method:

@MatDrOiD - I'm pretty sure you're 99% correct in MOST cases, however this sounds like a RADIO brick.. and AFAIK the only fix is a motherboard replacement.. YES, the phone DOES turn on and responds, however from my experience it is not fixable.

thanks for clarifying... I guess the only thing to do now is to wait for google to announce ice cream sandwich and then wait for devices that will support it and buy one.... been fun with desire, at least I still have it as an mp3 player
I'd suggest you to try use PB99IMG.zip method, too...
To do that, first download the zip version of the RUU file for your phone, you should be able to find it if you do a search. After this, put the zip file to your SDCard's root folder (directly into it) and name it PB99IMG.zip.
After this, plug SDcard back to phone, turn on your phone while holding Volume Down button. HBOOT screen will come, read the zip file and ask you if you want to flash. Press Volume Up to accept and it shall flash itself.
If this one fails either, I'd recommend you to do S-OFF first, and then try again. Maybe you can have more chance with S-OFF HBOOT..
So what DOES your desire actually do atm?

it boots, acts normal. does NOT recognize PC when connected, nor is it recognized the other way around.it drops service as soon as the screen is locked or goes dark (like when you pick up the phone or lock the screen normally). I can't flash radio or S-off, as I am still S-on and usb doesn't work. I tried PB99IMG.zip two or three times, either it does not update when using 2.2 RUU or it does reflash 2.3 RUU, but doesn't fix anything... I tried temproot with rageagainstthecage (doesn't work) and zysploit (doesn't work). I can access the phone via USB when in fastboot via fastboot and adb recognizes the phone only when connected through wi-fi. I don't know if there is anything I can do to make it work. I do not require the USB to work, even if it would be nice, I just need the phone not to drop service and drop calls every time the screen is off...
wait... your phone boots????????? If I missed you saying that then I'm sorry x1000000 it isn't bricked..
in that case it's not bricked.. have you tried the USB brick fix?
and to fix your service you could try:
in the dialpad dial *#*#4636#*#*, phone information, and play around with the preferred network types. It's a deep-sleep issue solver, so could possibly work for you too.
EDIT: oooooooooooooooooooooooh I know why I thought it was a radio brick, there's a post similar to yours, and just got confused

Do you know how to use fastboot?
Ok so I already have ARHD 6.1.2 installed with ENG S-Off
But I was going to flash the new recommended radio,
(As is started with 5.1.x) so it was a different radio.....
Anyway, it recommends having Radio S-Off as well as ENG S-Off
But I don't have Radio S-Off,
Is it safe for me to run the radio S-Off tool even though I have already
installed a custom ROM? And then flash the new radio afterwards?
yes bro just go ahead it will be fine
Just tried the tool and I keep getting the "Unknown error, probably connection"
And I have tried the solutions listed in the thread to the s-off tool but it still
gives me that error, any idea's? Is it because I already have the custom rom installed?
if its suggesting connection then you must check everything properly
so if you have arhd 6.1.2 then you are rooted so thats ok next check that you have usb debugging mode enabled and that you are connecting to pc using "charge only mode" then use the tool by running it as adminstrator and make sure you are looking at the phone as you will have to give superuser rights you may be missing this part
also make sure htc sync is on your pc and that you phone is fully recognised by your pc and all drivers are installed
let us know how you get on

Yep, connecting in charge only, with debugging enabled. I am running with administrator rights.....And superuser does pop-up but it doesn't ask permission it just says it has automatically granted superuser permissions to the tool.
So it all goes well but then says its failed, which it has as I have checked the CID in the bootloader just incase it was giving a false negative! Also tried the suggestion of opening a cmd in the background and cd'ing into the tools folder and doing an adb shell before running the tool, that also didn't work!
hmmm....if you go into device manager on your pc does it show up as my htc under android devices? is all ok under device manager just to rule out and conflictions there
---------- Post added at 02:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------
i think i found your solution try it out and see what you have to do when you downgraded you must flash that rom first once you are on that rom then you can s off after that s off remains forever unless you use the tool to remove it . then you can flash anything you want after that wether it be a kernel radio or rom
I'm at work now, but I will check when I get home, and let you know!

I flashed the rom mentioned so I was on a downgraded version, I ran the tool and it said done, but on the bootloader I still only have eng s-off and the cid is still my branded cid. Apparently this is because I have the wrong radio, As I must of flashed a new 1 the first time I flashed ARHD 5.1.X
Anyway the only reason I was trying to get Radio S-OFF was to flash a new radio, but as I seem to have already done it in the past, I guess it would be safe for me to flash a new one now?
Ok, here's the gist. Went to root a friends phone. Used AAHK as I had on mine. It needed to downgrade (as it had done previously with mine). After downgrading it wouldn't boot. Just hung on HTC boot screen. Waited 10+ mins...nothing. Tried a few times...nothing. I can get into Hboot using power/volume but have no idea what to do from here as I can't boot into a ROM so the laptop/aahk can see it. I've tried bootloader....nothing happens. Tried Factory reset...nothing happens...just goes back to HTC boot screen. Can any kind person help out a noob in distress here. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.:good:

You don't need to boot into a ROM to do stuff. You're fine as long as you can reach the bootloader. Read the Noob Starter Guide by Glevitan for more info. Find it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30007264&postcount=2
---------- Post added at 11:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:43 PM ----------
If you need to know what you need to read.. You already have a downgraded hboot.. you need to S-OFF it and flash a custom recovery now. You can read on how to do that from the guide I mentioned.

Thanks for the response. I have quickly read through the guide but am slightly confused to say the least. I can't find how to get S-Off from here, other than through aahk. Bootloader does nothing when selected, and recovery just takes me back to the htc boot screen. I'm stuck here. Could you please point me to the right (next) step (S-off). I have read the guide, but it doesn't say how to do it from Hboot.
For example, the guide states this :-
Unlocking the bootloader with HTCDEV tool will allow you to flash CWM recovery and install
custom roms for ACE models and not ported roms, meaning that roms ported from other devices
such as Sensation or Sensation XL will not be successfully be flashed.
..which is all well and good. Ok, I have an unlocked bootloader so I can install CWM, but HOW?
Can you post the text appearing on top of your bootloader here?
Depending on that you might need to either flash a recovery or fix your bootloader.

Alright. You used AAHK right? Did you read the guide and follow all the steps? I'll suggest to use the "Fixing your messed bootloader" section of the guide I mentioned previously and then run the AAHK again.

Ok this is what it says.....
Hboot fix
md5sum hboot.nb0
adb push hboot.nb0 /data/local/tmp/
adb push gfree /data/local/tmp/
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/gfree
adb shell chmod 0755 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell /data/local/tmp/gfree -f
adb shell
dd if=/data/local/tmp/hboot.nb0 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/data/local/tmp/hboot.test
sync
exit
adb pull /data/local/tmp/hboot.test
md5sum hboot.test
All md5sums should be 2a28dcd53ea26504be9a86572a348aa1
adb reboot
I did the first few steps, (I've removed the links as it won't let me post them here) and got the file into C ok with the files from the hack kit. When I start ADB (via the Start Here command) and I type in the commands above, it says "Device not found". I have tried to follow the link that it states to read for people new to ADB, but it takes me to a massive page of links and I have no idea where to start. Thanks for your help up to now, it really is appreciated, and I fear I'm in above my neck here, and am now a walking advert for why people like me shouldn't go down this route. When I did my phone, it really wasn't a problem and the whole AADK process went fine. I have been flashing custom roms on my phone for months without a single problem, and it's only when my friend/colleague saw me running JellyTime 17.2 that he wanted it too. Now I fear I'm stuck!

Calm down. It's all solvable. And we can get it back working.
For adb to work you need to connect your device and let it go into bootloop (switch it on and let it stay as it is).
Once it goes into that state, try typing "adb devices" it should show a list of devices attached, you should see your phone in there. Once your phone is recognized, the adb commands should work.
Also, do you have HTC Sync installed?

Kicking myself for realising that HTC sync WAS installed. Have uninstalled, wiped drivers, and reinstalled drivers from here. Rebooted laptop. Still the same. Ok, my ADB console I type in adb devices and it says List of devices attached and just shows the same command prompt line underneath (i.e C:\Windows\system32> so I don't think it's seeing the device.
When you say "Let it go into bootloop", all I have have done is turned it on and it goes to the HTC screen, I hope this is right. Windows see's the phone ok. When I plug it in it sees it as "USB mass device installed". Is this the problem?

Did you enable USB Debugging on the stock ROM before you started AAHK? If not then thats the reason probably why ADB is not working right now.
Anyway, what I'll suggest you to do right now is to boot into the bootloader and run an RUU.
Get an appropriate RUU from here : http://www.filefactory.com/f/efa28fefafc4af9c/
Appropriate means your region, WWE is the worldwide edition and mostly safe for all devices. Download the RUU, connect your phone(in the bootloader mode) and run the .exe from the computer. Follow the on-screen instructions then. The phone should return to stock after the complete setup has run and you can try the AAHK again.
The other method is to unlock your bootloader via the HTCDEV method and flash a recovery and then flash a rooted ROM. The HTCDEV method is not good one for various reasons but it might prove easier.
Go to www.htcdev.com for using that method for bootloader unlock.

No worries.
There might be also a way to S-OFF from the bootloader and fastboot and I think Glevitan might help you with that. But since he's not around at the moment and you're kinda worried I'll say the RUU way is the best option as of now.

I downloaded the RUU overnight as it took a few hours. I've just ran it and even though I selected the Orange UK one from that list, it started the process and then said it was the wrong RUU and to please download the correct one. I'm now downloading a WWE one to try. There's a few different ones so here's hoping!

It worked. Success! Installed that, ran AAHK again, and it ran through no problem this time. Installed JB (randomblames Jellytime), flashed the GAPPS and all is good. He now has a working phone. If I could buy you a drink then I would! Many many many thanks for your help and patience!

I'm glad I could help. And I appreciate the gesture but really.. no need to buy me a drink.. We're all here to help each other.

I have a HTC One M8 converted to GPE. I want to revert back to Stock so I downloaded the RUU from HTC's website, but the RUU.exe closes after I accept the License Agreement. I've installed all redistributeables and Adobe Air but the program continues to close itself. Any help?
I had the same, similar, issue when running an ruu with windows 7.
Basically the HTC drivers won't install properly.
If you put your phone into fastboot then connect to pc, if the phone doesn't show "fastboot usb" then the drivers aren't installed properly.
My issue was, windows 7 wouldn't install UNSIGNED drivers.
Solution..... Constantly press f8 on pc reboot, a list of options will show on pc screen, about 6 or so. The bottom one is worded, can't remember exact wording, in a way that lets you install UNSIGNED drivers. Select that option then connect phone to pc, while it's in fastboot, it should then install the phone drivers and "fastboot usb" will show on phone screen.
When the pc is rebooted it will revert back to not installing unsigned drivers but the ones you've just installed will "stay installed".
Worked for me, hope it helps.

When the pc is rebooted it will revert back to not installing unsigned drivers but the ones you've just installed will "stay installed".
Worked for me, hope it helps.

I did, pretty much, the same thing last night. Went from sense to gpe and back to sense, didn't like gpe.
You need to change cid to 11111111, flash firmware to suit the sense ruu you're going to run, then run ruu.

Mind you, you won't be able to do much, or anything, if your phone isn't detected in fastboot mode.

I think the, main, issue you have is that you need to flash sense firmware FIRST that suits the ruu you intend running.
Best place to get instructions for that is from the thread that I sent a link for. "Going back to sense from gpe" by grentuu.
You will also need adb installed on your pc and a basic knowledge of how to use it and it's fastboot commands.
adb, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
For basic adb the link above should help. I've got the full adb on my pc but the minimal one will work, I've used it too.
Edit.... I had a problem getting firmware to flash last night but after changing cid to 11111111 it flashed. Don't know if that was the problem or not but it flashed after changing cid.
Dude, you can't go back like that, it's a partition issue. There is a faster way to do this, but please learn the correct way first...

u need C++ 2008 32bit INSTALLED ,
if you havent figured it out just download this https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26368
holy crap! thanks for the fix. i have been trying to figure out why the HTC RUUs were not working any more.
A Word of advice for those of you Running Windows 7 64 bit, install the C++ 2008 32bit drivers. I installed the 64 bit thinking it's what I need since I'm running 7 in 64-bit mode. I was getting the side by side error (In Windows Application event log). Once I installed the 32bit c++ drivers, the RUU ran no issues. Thanks to all above.
My problem is weird , I am not a noob , On XDA Since long time but this time im stunned what's wrong after the OTA update phone keep rebooting goes to red triangle screen stays and reboots All ok , All i need is Fastboot then i can fix in 2mints , But when i try to go to bootloader it stays there for 2seconds before i select anything it restarts I am not able to select Fastboot and when i select fastboot in hurry then after going to fastboot it restarts , im Locked Bootloader was fully stocked , All i need is bootloader or Fastboot , Or a option to flash rom ... Can anyone help?

only the ruu section! they are exe Files that do for you the flash process..

This is a tough one. As you know, it keeps trying to install the update file (before you can pick any bootloader options), causing it to reboot. The only way to stop this would be to delete the file, but you have no way of doing that, if its constantly rebooting to bootloader with no fastboot access (and no OS).
Is the bootloader currently unlocked, locked or relocked?
S-on or s-off?

Hello dear all,
I have a problem with my cellphone i think you can help me or give an advice how to repair it. Let me tell you a little what happened, after the last update my cell phone only loads Android Recovery through that screen i can move on to bootloader. HTC Sync is not able to detect my cell phone connected to my PC through USB port.
I am newbie into this world of cell phones but i have knowledge of computers, i hope you can give any suggestion or guidance.
thank you
did you know what your firmware is, or was? did nothing happen in DeviceManager in Windows? a unknown device or something?
