[Q] Desire HD needs SD Card reboot - Which ROM? - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Up until yesterday I had a great little HTC Desire HD, A9191 with rooted gingerbread 2.3.5, an unlocked bootloader (from htcdev), S-ON - and everything in my garden was rosy... Then I tried to get too clever and pushed a new hosts file to /system/etc while I had su privileges.
This was a big file (540K) which I had been using quite happily on Windows to keep adware at bay. However, I now think it caused the phone to fail because the first time I tried to boot up after the push, it started looping round the boot sequence indefinitely. I am wondering if the IP for localhost, being 127.0.0.1, is incompatible with linux...? Anyway, that's a job for tomorrow because before I can think about draining the swamp there are some "alligators" to deal with...
While this continuous re-booting was going on I found I could still do "adb shell" and run "su" but all my attempts to restore hosts to the original file were futile because at this point the file system was "read-only" even for root. Then I made my biggest error which was to attempt "RECOVERY" from the boot menu...... ( I think my previous attempt to create a recovery file failed and I must have just forgotten to attend to it.)
The boot loader still responds and I am now looking at the boot screen which says:
=============================================

==============================================
Here's what happens with these various options:
1. Normal boot ends with "Sorry! Process system is not responding" and two buttons "Force close" and "Wait" - but in reality the phone is simply hung...
2. FASTBOOT ends with a phone gif and a red triangle / exclamation mark.
3. RECOVERY also ends with a phone gif and a red triangle / exclamation mark.
4. FACTORY RESET runs a black/white barber pole and sd card symbol for 2 minutes, then reboots as far as "quietly brilliant" but this then ends up the same as 1. above.
5. SIMLOCK produces this output:
FAT32 init OK
Open MCCMNC file fail
Open CID file fail
Process done, reboot device?
<VOL UP> Yes
6. IMAGE CRC produces this output:
osbl: 0x3AA5FD29
amss: 0xD791CCA8
hboot: 0xFB10D632
boot: 0x8446CCFD
recovery: 0x0x88F60913
system: 0x898C2200
When I put an sd card in the slot and press and hold the power button with HBOOT highlighted it produces this:

So am I right in thinking that it's not quite dead yet and still recoverable? I have made a few attempts to position ROM files in the root of the sd card, but so far without success.
Could someone please tell me (assuming it's not bricked yet) what file(s) I need to put on the sd card to stand any chance of recovering. Previously I had downloaded the nearest "stock rom" to the phone's original but this came as a .exe which just compounded my confusion as to what needs to be done.
Here's hoping...
Happy New Year to all.

Half-bricked DHD?!? Is it repairable?

Hi XDA-Guys,
first of all, I am a moron because I think that I've bricked my phone.
How did I bricked it? Let me tell you:
I tried several ROMs (MIUI, Cyanogenmod, Android Revolution, ICS Beta ROMs). Everything was fine flashing with Clockwork. I've permrooted it once with Visionary+.
Then I wanted to sell my phone to a friend and forgot to turn off all the rooted options and started the latest RUU (RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_233505_signed.exe). Before that I also flashed the latest Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.
It didn't work. I got this error:
ERROR[131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR.
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone.
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
I bought the DHD from O2 in Germany when it came out in October/November 2010.
I thought: "Okay, no problem. Download the RUU from O2."
I tried the RUU_Ace_O2_DE_1.32.207.1_Radio_12.28a.60.140e_26.03.02.08_M_release_153755_signed.exe and it didn't work. Then I tried another RUU: RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed.exe. I tried alot of RUUs but none of it worked.
Everytime I got the same error. When I got into Fastboot it begins to flash and I can see the silver HTC font with the black background and then the error occurs: ERROR[131]: CUSTOMER ID ERROR.
It doesn't work because I'm on S-ON, right?
I think when I started my first RUU (the latest one) it got S-ON.
I can go into Recovery mode and restore another old backup but when the phone boots it got stuck with the white screen and green HTC font.
I tried several ROMs.
When I boot into HBOOT by pressing VOL DOWN and POWER this occurs:

I also tried creating a Goldcard with booting into Fastboot and starting the latest RUU --> didn't work. :-(
I tried starting the RUU till the first screen and copied the "rom.zip" out of the folder C:\Users\HorstHeinz\AppData\Local\Temp\{CFD2B623-C8F0-49BD-B58A-B660BD3E6320}\{50F2F878-636A-496F-A7CB-544C067E0C4B}, renamed it to PD98IMG.zip and copied it to the root of the SD-Card. And when I booted the phone into HBOOT it recognizes the file. It loads, it checks...and then it failed again: "CID incorrect! Update fail! Press <POWER> to reboot.
Where is the mistake? Can I throw away my smartphone?
Kind regards,
Horschti

First off, you aren't bricked. It turns on. So don't panic. Do you have Google Talk or anything? If you do, PM me that and I'll help you. Thanks!
PS. Do NOT throw your phone away!

[Guide] Stuck in Hboot Read This
You might also want to look at you CID, if you are "Super CID" you may not be able to flash RUU from a provider. You will need to find your providers CID (there are many threads etc) and then write that (using the easy S-off tool) then flash your RUU.
If you Flash an older RUU and then update you will overwrite your Rooted options.
@azrael97c:
I tried a lot of guides, but I haven't tried this one.
I will tell you if it worked. Thx for your help.
@wbbigdave:
Yeah, that was my first idea to make it work. Maybe I find another CID-Change-Tutorial. But SUPER CID_1111111 is the one where I can flash every RUU, right?
yeah your good to go
@azrael97c:
The tutorial you've sent me didn't work either. :-(
I always get the same error when I've copied PD98IMG.zip into the root folder of the SDCard. And I also tried a couple of PD98IMG.zip --> "CID incorrect! Update fail! Press <POWER> to reboot.
@xXkingsromXx:
Yeah, I know! The idea was good, but in reality it of course didn't work. :-(
I'm not able to create the goldcard because I just can get into HBoot and from there to recovery mode. In recovery mode I'm able to read out the CID.
From the tutorial in XDA I've wanted to create it with help of Google a Goldcard. I've found a Goldcardtool.exe-Tool. But it also didn't work. :-(

[Q] No ROM or anything installed on phone [SOLVED]

Dear reader,
Thanks in advance for your time. I have to, yet again, rely on your knowledge. Even though there is an endless amount of knowledge available on these forums, it seems that I keep searching for the wrong keywords since I am not getting the results I need.
I have been running CyanogenMod for a year now, and I decided I was up for a change. I rebooted into recovery and installed MIUI.us. I do have to admit I don't know much when it comes to flashing, installing differents OS's, etc.
Let me describe the situation: I wanted to start all over again, clean the SD-card and internal memory and re-install MIUI but somewhere in the process I got stuck. Now my screen is stuck on the HTC screen, and the only thing I can do is load into -I don't really now what it is called- (I lack the terminology). The screen is as follows:
ACE PVT SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.85.0007

When I press recovery I get the cellphone with the red triangle and exclamation mark on top of it. If I then press vol-up + power I get the Android system recovery <3e> screen. When I select to apply the update.zip I get an error. This is probably because I don't have it no my SD card due to me having formatted it.
So now I don't know which steps to follow. Can any of you tell me how to fix my issue, or refer me to a good tutorial that handles my problem.
My apologies again for having to rely on your time again. Thanks in advance!
Yours sincerely,
Nicolas
If i understood well the reason update is failing is because you dont have a update.zip file on your sd card right?
If this is the case download one of the stock roms listed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1610483
or here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19101263#post19101263
If your not sure which one to download download this RUU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=879375
If you download a update.zip put it in your sdcard on the main directory and boot to bootloader -the screen for which you lacked the terminology-
update should occur automatically.
If you decide to download a RUU instead of a update.zip...
To get update.zip from RUU download and run the RUU on your pc without connecting your device to the pc and follow on screen instructions, once you get to the part when it tells you to connect your phone go to the temp folder on windows and extract rom.zip to desktop, rename to update.zip and do the steps above.
You only need one method for update.zip i posted 2 to give you the option to chose which one you prefer.
Please press the thanks button if I was helpful.
Pm me if that doesn't work
Thank you
Thanks for your clear elaborate explanation. My cellphone is again happily running MIUI without any problems.
For future references: I have followed your second option since I didn't know which stock rom to download. As filefactory constantly didn't have a free download spot, I downloaded the RUU using the link found on post number 334. The link brought everything back in order, and allowed me to use the ace hack kit afterwards.
Thanks again inspiredbyhtc for your time and help. Credit is of course given where credit is due. Much appreciated!

[Q] Flashing 0P6BIMG.zip Bootloop

So I really messed up, trying to follow a guide to S-Off my device I copied a file over with the file name 0P6BIMG.zip . Because my computer was messing up and would not let me copy directly to the folder, so I placed it in a folder within a folder thinking it had to be in the root directory to initiate automaticly when the bootloader is open. Oh how I was wrong.
Now since I have not started the process to convert my HK - Cid_622 device back to stock yet. I was booting into the bootloader to get into TWRP so I could flash my nandroid backup and then it started initiating this update as my jaw dropped.
Now it just constantly boots into bootloader saying loading 0P6BIMG.zip, then Flashing File, then Parsing then Device halted due to large image update fail. Press <Power> to reboot. Which of course puts me back in the boot loader which starts the whole process over again. I tried holding power putting and volume up but I still get the same response.
Is there something I can do? Maybe some magic way to remove the file so I can get into TWRP and flash my backup so I can at least get it working. It doesn't seem to let Fastboot work while it is in this Parsing Device Halted Due to Large Image Fail screen. I really would appreciate any input because I am at a total loss.
Is it in you external SD?
That zip should be removed once it successfully flashes.
HTC One M8
It won't finish it just gets the failed error... Its on the internal sd. I attached some pictures of whst it is doing and the process. Driving me nuts.
It just reboots into boot loader each time and retries the process.
Sent from my HTCONE using XDA Free mobile app
Are you S-OFF now? You can't flash that file s-on.
Either way, removing it from your SD will stop the loop.
---------- Post added at 06:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 PM ----------
Also, you need to be super CID to flash it I believe.
Are u s off ? Are u super cid ? If all these done u can update fw all region
Did you ever find a solution to this? I just did this to myself trying to use an RUU update....
Got the same Problem. Anyone could help?

HTC One M8 stuck in boot/optimizing apps loop

Hi,
I've got HTC One M8 European version running:
- Maximus HD 12 on mm 6.0 and sense 7.0
- TWRP 3.0.2.0-m8
I've had this phone rooted and running this ROM for like 2 months all fine, until recently i've started to get "bluetooth share error" pretty often. Read somewhere that wiping cache helps. So i went into bootloader/TWRP mode and... performed full wipe instead by mistake >.<
When i rebooted phone I saw HTC logo and then "Android is optimizing apps" info and apps being counted up to 173 (like after system update or so). When it's done, phone reboots and starts over again, and again, and again... until battery drains (battery is also pretty hot during that). The only thing that changes from time to time is that app count is sometimes smaller than 173.
I cannot power it off by holding power button. VOL DOWN + PWR combo doesn't work either.
All I can do is to use VOL UP + PWR and, when screen goes black, hold VOL DOWN and put phone in H BOOT mode. I can see following info:
*** Software status: Modified ***
*** UNLOCKED ***

and then blinks sth about no image and i get message "press PWR to reboot"
So i prepared clean SD card, downloaded "0p6bimg_m8_ul_m60_sense70_mr_htc_europe_6.12.401.4_radio_1.29.214500021.12g_20.72.4196t.01_release_464360_signed.zip" RUU file, renamed to "0P6BIMG.zip"​and put on the SD card. When i reboot to H BOOT again i get:
!! Image Update FAIL !!
SD Checking...
No gift file...
Loading... [0P6BIMG.zip]
No image!
Loading... [0P6BIMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading... [0P6BIMG.zip]​
and then on new screen:
!! Image Update FAIL !!
Checking...
Wrong ripped image!
Device halted due to Large Image update fail!
Press <POWER> to reboot.​
When i press PWR phone reboots to H BOOT again and i get the same sequence i just listed above.
What actually happened? Any ideas how can i make my phone work again?
Thanks in advance!
OK, i managed to flash twrp at last and get to recovery mode.
