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

Just follow this guide here
If its complaining about CID incorrect, it just means you need a goldcard, which that guide goes through.

There's a CyanogenMod wiki called HTC Desire Z: Rooting. It does help figure out the rooting process in a simple manner. I know there's an excellent post on XDA but I can't find it. Google it.
And follow the process to the T and don't miss out on anything. You're gonna be fine.
On a personal note, I've tried Virtuous Unity and found it to be ridiculously slow and memory-hungry. Otherwise it's quite Sense-ible. I personally can't stand a slow phone. I'm using MIUI 2.3.23 right now from MIUI Andriod. Loving every minute and not missing Sense in the least.
Heh, guys. Didnt work.
After this step "adb reboot bootloader" in manual downgrading, the phone could boot in boot loader and started scaning for images. But after scan it said that image is missing or image is wrong! I dont know what to do... Did all of steps twice...
When tried to downgrade with fastboot, screen shows gray HTC and the phone hanged.
did you make a gold card?
also are you on gingerbread?
Yes I did.
After running this script:
# ./flashgc
There was message that my flash card is a goldcard now. Successful.
Yes, I have GB 2.3.3

No results. The same... Tried downgrade from the link pointed above before rooting the phone.
and had the same "No image or image is wrong"
Change flash card, made goldcard on it too.
I was able to get temp root, but when Im loading into bootloader "..image is wrong ...bla-bla..."
Used two different flash cards for goldcard procedure and in the end of it had the same results. It didnt help. What to do.
What type of card do you use?
I can make video with all things I do to show you that everything I do is strongly by wiki.

it sounds like bootloader isnt picking up the PC10IMG on your sd card.... the CID incorrect error comes after this...
after its failed have you checked to see if the PC10IMG has transferred to your sd?
also just to check after you adb reboot bootloader in 7 you are then selecting bootloader?
Yes, the image is on sdcard, I checked.
Of course, after rebooting into bootloader I m selecting bootloader.
After that Im just waiting for searching. After few seconds of waiting the image loading starts.
SD Checking...
Loading image.....PC10DIAG.zip
No Image!
Loading....PC10DIAG.nbh
No image or wrong image!
Loading image....[PC10IMG.zip]
No image or wrong image!
either a bad download of of what ever ruu your using or your goldcard didnt work. try another method of making a gold card or using a different sd card (fat32)
also redownload the ruu that you need and put this one on your card
In my first post I mentioned that i have australian stock rom whish has 1.85 as earliest version of rom, not 1.34. I already tried to downgrade to 1.85, it works, but grant root is not possible here.
Try to reformat my flash card again...

its not getting to the goldcard stage... it should find the PC10IMG.zip & then ask if you want to upgrade after you choose yes it then checks & either continues or gives you a CID error
i had a good check the other day when i was rooting my second one...
maybe some screenshots of the terminal & the platform-tools folder would help just to check everything is where it should be

UNLOCK - this is an official unlock of device bootloader from HTCdev.com site. As they say, this is an opportunity to install custom roms, but indeed i cant see any difference between locked (state by default) or unlocked.

Hi everyone,
Long story short I bricked my phone. After doing more research after the event, I learned that it probably wasn't a good idea yet since there is no stock recovery image posted as of yet. I looked through the posts on this forum to find some information, however so far it has been insufficient.
My question is, is there any update on a Rogers 1.73.631.1 stock recovery.img or does anyone have any information that can help me? My phone used to be stuck on the HTC splash screen however now my phone will only load to bootloader.
Thanks
Lock the bootloader and flash the RUU
to go short start over
Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately, that list does not have my stock RUU listed as all of those are version 1.26.xxx and my Rogers version is 1.73.xxx. I've tried the disaster recovery thread and I believe because my versions dont match with any RUU listed I can't even load a stock image. Every image I try to load I get a "failed" message, including installing the system.img file from inside of those .exe files.
I desperately need any information anyone has that could help me. I apologize for not posting this in the same thread as the disaster recovery, however I need a minimum of 10 posts to post in that section. Sorry
Am I screwed for a few weeks while I wait and hope someone uploads the proper RUU? I did not get a chance to make a backup as I only got 90% of the way through the rooting process before it crashed and wont load on me. I am using a mac, however I do have access to (and have tried many solutions on) a PC if necessary.
Thanks,
MaidenFan
Hi I am stuck at the same screen
I got the bootloader unlocked and super user installed
I wanted to install Leedroid ROM so downloaded the files and used fasboot to install the version of boot.img that comes with it. Problem is that I forgot to transfer over the rom zip file to the device before doing it so now I'm stuck on this screen. I know, I just got distracted. My fault I know.
(I have successfully rooted my old desire and a wildfire in the past without bother)
I had a nandriod backup done from before flashing boot.img and tried to restore.. It says restore was successful but it it still stuck on this screen. Some help would be mighty appreciated.
EDIT:
The bootloader is now locked again but I think I still have CWM recovery installed however I can't access it anymore. I've tried unlocking the bootloader again but now it says the battery is too low. I keep trying to turn the phone off in fastboot to let it charge but it just starts up again? Any Ideas? Thanks
I've managed to sort out my phone.

ONE S...wrong forum mate, this is the ONE X
Hi, in my impatience to get JB, I knackered things up. I forgot to put the boot img onto my sd card, ran the flasher tool detailed at the start of the big JB update / OTA thread in the general forum and now have a phone with the following:
HBOOT 1.36 / stuck on the splash screen / no access to the sdcard / is/was completely stock & unbranded. The screen I arrive at when pressing the volume don on reboot tells me in highlighted pink at the top of the one ith the three skateboarding robots that it is
***LOCKED***
ENDEAVOURU PVT SHIP S-ON
Booting into recovery gives me 3 or 4 seconds with the green arrow, a reboot and then the HTC one x beats audio splash screen.
Is it going to have to go back to HTC or can someone help me avoid that please?
Sorry for cross posts, I'm trying to get into the right place but am desperate to get this thing back and functioning.
THANKYOU - in advance for any help.
A desperate noob.

Hi Tomascus! A helpful voice in the wilderness, thank you... Most definitely is states *** LOCKED ***. It was never rooted or faffed about with prior to me doing whatever I just did to it this morning. Do you think it can be sorted without going back to HTC?
Think you need to put the Boot.img in the same file as your JBflasher tool (where you put the unlock code from HTC) you cannot flash the boot.img from your SD card.
Did you make a backup? What recovery do you have?
---------- Post added at 02:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 PM ----------
Firstly you will need to register your phone on HTC Dev
Next you will need to get the Unlock_token.bin file from the email you are sent and put it in the JB firmware flasher tool
Next you will need to put the Boot.img in the same file as above
If you can boot your phone into fastboot by pressing on the power button for 10 secs and then holding volume before it reboots you should be good to go,
try what you did again after doing the steps above and then you will be unlocked, with CWM recovery installed. The boot.img of your chosen custom rom will be installed,
then you can mount the phone via usb in recovery, put your rom on there and flash it, it should boot
---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:02 PM ----------
Also have a read of this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1843585
Read through it, the bit you need to do via HTC Dev is below:
Unlock the Bootloader:-
Did you install HTC Sync at the start? As now you're going to need it!
Navigate your web browser to www.htcdev.com/bootloader and click register at the top, complete the registration process, making sure that you use an email address that you have access to.
Once registered make your way back to www.htcdev.com/bootloader and sign-in.
Once signed-in at the supported devices drop down select 'All Other Supported Models' and click on Begin Unlock Bootloader.
Now before we move onto anything else we're going to want the Fastboot Files, which Cursed4Eva is kindly hosting here: Fastboot Files
Once downloaded, on your PC go to the folder C:\Android and inside that folder create a new folder called fastboot, so you'll have
C:\Android\fastboot
Now the fastboot files that I linked to earlier come in a Zip file, unzip it to C:\Android\fastboot, this makes it easier to find it in CMD.
Now back @ htcdev, you've registered and signed in? Good, you've chosen All Other Supported Models and clicked Begin Unlock Bootloader, it'll ask you if you wish to continue, click yes, then the Legal Terms will pop up, just click that you acknowledge both terms and continue with 'Proceed to Unlock Instructions'.
Now click through the instructions until Step 8, ignore everything else.
Now turn off your HOX, now we'll turn on the HOX into the Bootloader, so press and hold down the Volume Down Button and whilst pressing the Power Button, continue to hold this down, the phone may vibrate and bleep a bit but continue to hold it down until you are greeted with a screen that has some options on it, Fastboot, Recovery etc... Now the touch screen wont work so we navigate using the volume buttons & Power Button, press down on the Power Button wile you have Fastboot selected, you'll enter Fastboot Mode with the options HBoot, Reboot, Reboot Bootloader & Power Down. You'll see above these options it'll have Fastboot written and highlighted in Red, leave the phone as it is, just plug it into the PC via USB and that highlighted 'Fastboot' will become 'Fastboot USB'.
Now open CMD, enter
cd \Android\fastboot
This will access the fastboot folder in your C:
Now in CMD once you're in the fastboot folder enter this command:
fastboot oem get_identifier_token
Now it'll bring up the Identifier Token. (see Image)
Now using your mouse, right click in CMD where it says
<<<< Identifier Token Start >>>>
Highlight it to where it says
<<<<< Identifier Token End >>>>>
Now on your keyboard, once you've highlighted the Identifier Token press 'Ctrl + C' to copy the Identifier Token.
Now back at the HTC Dev website, scroll down to after Step 10, where it says My Device Identifier Token:, Click in that field and either press Ctrl + V or right click and paste your Identifier Token into that field.
Now Click Submit.
You'll now be taken to a page where you'll be informed to check your emails.
Open up your emails and you'll have an email from HTC and in that email will be an attachment, this will be called Unlock_code.bin.

Hi and thanks again, I received my unlock token, have tried huge amounts of different things and still can't seem to get this thing working. With regards to which recovery did I have etc, I'm afraid I have no idea as the thing was stock, unbranded, never been rooted or anything. Horrible feeling it's back to HTC for this one... Cheers again though, really appreciate your help and efforts.

Also have you set up the fastboot file on your PC?
OK, I've somehow managed to unlook my bootloader using the HTC tool so assume this is a good thing? Anyone tell me what to do now please?
That is exactly what you wanted to do
have you got a command prompt open which is linked to your fastboot folder?
Bear with me mate i'm at work but can help
You will need to flash the attached file through fastboot commands (make sure the attached file is in your fastboot folder):
use the command
fastboot flash recovery c:\fastboot\CWMrecovery.img
You will need to replace the bit in bold above with the path to your fastboot folder if any different to mine
Hi again, I can't thank you enough for this, I've somehow managed to relock the thing now... I simply tried to re-run the flasher tool, got distracted and ended up re-locked. Arrrgh!

Lol nightmare!!! (concentrate lol!!! )
Can you confirm that under where it says relocked on the fastboot screen it says HBOOT 1.36?
You will need to run the flasher again (send anyone who distracts you packing lol) make sure there's a file called
recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
in the JBFW flasher
Have you downloaded a custom rom? if so which one?
Hi, cheers for your patience, yes indeed 1.36.0000 / S-ON.

Have you downloaded a custom rom to use?
No mate, I haven't. Wouldn't know where to look to be honest, as I mentioned, I was just trying to keep this as stock as possible! I have CID HTC__001. All UK, unbranded if this helps...
Hi, no I haven't, this is as stock as they come, unbranded - all of that... I wouldn't know which one to use or even where to look!

Right ok! gotcha,
it looks like you have updated your firmware without picking a custom JB rom lol! the JBFW tool was meant for anyone who wanted to install a custom rom!
You have two options,
1, Install custom recovery and custom rom or
2, Run the JB RUU which will install stock JB on your phone, This should work as you have the correct HBOOT, you can find the link here;
http://www.filefactory.com/f/7cc7b2fbdd03c031/
You will need to find the file below:
RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_JB_45_S_HTC_Europe_3.14.401.27_Radi o_5.1204.162.29_release_298897_signed.exe
Basically you run it on your PC with the phone connected via usb and it does everything for you, You will need to connect your phone in fastboot mode (as you cant boot normally) and run the exe file, let it do its thing and your phone should boot
I am not 100% sure if is will work as I have always updated via RUU when the phone is connected booted normally, not in fastboot but it should do, if not your best bet is route 1. I will be leaving work in 15 mins, I will link you up later on Gtalk if you wish

Hi again, ok, joined premium the file factory thing as the dl is over 500mb! Just tried running it all and now the battery's at less than 30% so it won't touch it! I've plugged it in and will try again in a minute. Not overly confident as initially I was getting the messages about how A the laptop couldn't identify the last device connected and then the RUU program said the same... Will have to try later. Thanks again, I may try the gtalk route later of you're about . Gonna walk the dog and see if I can calm down now... I've asked HTC for a return envelop which will arrive tomorrow so will give it all a bit of a go tonight and then call it quits! Thanks once more for everything.
This ruu is also on htcruu.com if i'm not mistaken !

Also is a good thing that the ruu seems to recognize the phone in fast boot u may be in business just make sure u have a bit more charge and relocked bootloader
Thanks to exocet1983 on here (and cheers to marcelhofs for looking in to ) I am now sorted, fixed, basking in the glory that is JB and the world has tilted back to it's normal axis. Thanks again for staying the ramblings of the uninitiated, very, very grateful.
