[Q] htc desire wont boot up

i am new to the forum and i am looking for some help i have a htc desire unbranded and it is stuck on the htc splash screen it is on hboot 0.93 and i have tried downgrading but it keeps coming up main version is older i can get into fast boot but not recovery i have been reading a lot of threads but cannot figure it all out as there is so much information i'm chasing my tail tail lol if anybody can help me i will be very grateful.

Why are you trying to downgrade? You could use an RUU as a quick fix but it will wipe everything. You haven't given any details of what you tried to do or are wanting to do.

i believe i have to downgrade to hboot 0.83 to get the phone to work but im not sure i have tried a lot of ruu's but cant seem to find the right one i'm very confused by it all to be honest i'm stuck as to what to do

It would also be helpful, if you used a little bit more correct grammer (putting punctuation between each sentence) as much as possible. Some of us, can't understand what you're talking about. This isn't FB or an sms
Also, it would help. if you said exactly what you did, and how you got into this situation. Ie; flashes, etc.
For example, are you rooted? Were you trying to flash a custom ROM?

htc stuck on boot up
Sorry i am not the greatest writer. I was on 2.1 and upgraded ota to 2.2.then the phone started resetting itself. before not booting altogether.i am currently on rom image 2.29.405 hboot 0.93 .and thats as far as i know.

htc stuck on boot up
The phone just hangs on the white htc screen.and wont go into recovery.

First of all, you have a desire. Before running any update, you need to create a Gold Card. It's not specific to "all" desires. But, better safe than sorry.

To boot into recovery the manual way, turn phone off.
Hold volume down, and press the power button.
This should boot to recovery.
If you get the Triangle, with exclamation mark,
press Vol Up + Power
This will bring you to another recovery menu where you can : Reboot , Flash from sd , Wipe Data/factory ,Wipe Cache
If you can recover the system, I highly suggest creating the Gold Card.
And one more note, if you decide to flash to a stock RUU, I highly recommend wiping all cache memories before flashing. Yeah, I know they will tell you that it's not necessary, but hey, I believe in overkill.

htc stuck on boot up
That's the thing it wont go into recovery, I can go into boot loader and fast boot but when i press up and power it goes back to the htc screen and hangs there again, i have tried a ruu which seemed to be successfull but it still hangs on the htc screen and will go no further.

If you can't get into any type of recovery, just how are you able to flash?
Bear with my stupidity here.
Without a menu system in any type of recovery, I am at a loss.
However, I have heard, that, some people put their phones in the freezer for several minutes. And that the phone would boot. Enogh where they col=uld goto recovery, and fix what they messed up.
Now, I would suspect it;s because the processor was overheating during boot. Probably because cache memories weren't wiped before flashing, and crap got all messed up.
Normally, I would never suggest this. And you do this at your own risk. So if it's messed up beyond repair, please, do not blame me,

htc stuck on boot up
I went into fastboot usb then ran the 2.29.405 ruu which completed successfully,i even extracted the pb99img.zip file and updated that way but still no luck,ill throw it in the freezer for 5 and give it a whirl, who knows might work. and thank you

The freezer thing, is a last ditch effort. And it is only a temporary thing. 15 minutes max. Maybe enough to allow you to clear caches and flash.
I have run out of expertise. So, I have nothing more to offer...

Help! URgent!!!!

I decided to try out the new RcmixHD 6.0 today...I backed up my Rom , wiped data n Cache n Dalvik Cache..The phone rebooted n now I am stuck on the bootscreen with white background n htc...plz someone help!!...I dont know what to do!!!....neone?..plz reply soon..

OK, i'm only new to this, so it might be better to wait and see if someone more experienced can answer you question.
but if its still stuck on the white screen then remove the battery & then put it back in again then hold down the Vol down button and power button until the bootloader loads up. then select 'recovery', it hopefully should take you back into the clockworkmod recovery & you can then flash your rom.
again, i'm only new & thats just my best guess.

first off, when you flash a new rom, it tends to stay on the white htc screen a bit longer. make sure you give it a few minutes (i'd say a good 3-4 minute wait should suffice but lets say 5 just to be safe). if nothing happens by then, you can always follow the method listed above by henipah to restore your backed-up rom.
once you have restored your rom and your heart rate has returned to normal levels, you can try flashing the new rom again. remember to wait it out a bit at the white htc screen.

First boot can take an age, if you issue the command
Code:
adb logcat
it will at least confirm the phone is doing something and hasn't hung, if it has hung issue
Code:
adb reboot recovery
and reflash your chosen rom.

Thank you for the replies...flashed it again n its fixed...it was stuck on Boot screen for about 15 minutes!!!..I thought I bricked by device or something...lolz..neways, all is well now..

Help plzzzz!!!!
I am a newbie here and am facing a problem with the data connection on the phone. I have flashed the new RCMix Rom v6.0.0.1 with partial Sense 3.0.
The problem is that if I leave the phone unattended or even otherwise, the data connection turns off. Is this a bug with the ROM, cause I see that the option for the Mobile Data Connection is still ticked in the Notifications Menu, but for me to be able to connect, I have to untick and then tick it again for the connection to happen again. Would also want to specify that I am not on 3G. Any help would be really appreciated.

hey, i have tried every thing for couple of weeks, but its not working for me, as when my cell phone restarts it stucks on the welcome screen, is there any way to delelete the operating system and install it again?

Sequence for recovery is (don't execute the next step if one gets your device back to life):
Soft Reset (Reboot) - this did not help obviously as you wrote.
Hard-Reset - mind that first boot will take much longer than usual, some minutes (up to 10 - depending on the device) will pass until the device is ready again. This is because all operator and init-specific things must be executed on the device with first boot. Be patient and do not interrupt - it must finish by itself. -You may just be stuck here!
Re-Flash the right shipped ROM - mind that the device can only receive the CID matching original ROM, not just any ROM (yet). You must do that while the device is waiting in bootloader mode, otherwise the RUU may not be able to access the device.
Gold-Card Flash a close-matching ROM (so one with same languages and the right device).
Please describe in detail what you did already and what were the results of your actions.

hey thankz, but i tried everything, all the steps you written above i them them all, nothing happened,, please help me,, my fon is stuck for couple of months.. it just shows the welcome screen, nothing else.. is there is a way that i can flash the operating system and reinstall it??
waiting..

bring the device to go into bootloader mode by Hold the camera button on the right side, press the power button. The phone will enter the " bootloader " mode and you 'll see the tricolor boot screen. after that reflash the device with shipped rom can you get at ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Smartphone/Cavalier/Shipped_Complete_Updates/Dopod/

[Q] HTC desire Boots to HBOOT need some help

HI i have a problem with my desire it boots itself to hboot i have another thread here about it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1445728) where ive had some help but noone has responded for a while so i thought i would start a new one.
well in that thread i was told to flash a RRU HTC_Desire_Android_2.3_Upgrade.rar the HTC devs latest update which went quite well the phone worked for a while then started booting its self back to HBoot during its fully working state that lasted 5 hours max i managed to test all of the buttons that all work perfectly so i know for a fact the voldown button isnt stuck and isnt causing the phone to boot to HBoot. anyway i think i may be a step further to fixing this as when i select recovery the phone boots to a white screen HTC logo which then changes to a black screen with a green arrow pointing downwards and 2 more arrows in a circle shape around that, then that screen changes to the screen with a phone and a red triangle and an red exclamation mark (!). i am able to get into Android system recovery (3e) which gives this list of options:
Reboot system now
Apply update from sdcard
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache partition
but at the bottom of the screen it says in yellow writing
E: Can't open /cache/recovery/command
i thought from this list by applying an update from sd card i could put clockwork mod on here or put a cm7 mod any help

You might wanna try Factory Reset [YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA] and see if that fixes it... Otherwise, take it to a store! Have you rooted it?

Hi and thanks for taking your time to help
i have tried a factory reset with no luck sadly any other ideas?

Chinese M9 bootlooping after OTA

Hi All,
Really hoping someone can suggest a possible solution for this one, only had the phone a few months!
So, Chinese released M9. Unlocked. Stock recovery, not rooted. Gapps installled.
Everything perfect, then today I got the 5.1 update.
Seemed like a slightly iffy install process...looked a little like it failed a couple of times and tried again.
Finally finished, the phone shows the white screen with the one logo, takes a while, opens on the desktop and turns off, back to the white screen with the logo.
I have been able to boot into safe mode, which is stable
I have been able to get to download mode and bootloader. Neither of these offer a cache wipe or a factory reset.
I have not been able to get into recovery mode, it shows a phone with a red triangle and an exclamation point.
So for my (largely uneducated) part I have two theories for the cause:
1) Gapps is somehow proving a problem, either faulting the install or causing a fatal error on startup
2) Since the update was notified and downloaded while on a VPN via Hong Kong, I wonder if I accidentally ended up with the HK version in which case I suspect there may be hardware differences (at least the radio). This seems unlikely, I would hope there were enough checks in place to prevent this happening.
No solid idea where to go from here. I have not yet tried ADB access, but even if I can connect, what will I do? Flash a new ROM? I'd rather not. And surely I'd need to root in order to do that....
At a loss, any potential solutions welcomed whole heartedly!
Thanks...

Booting into safe mode, but not booting otherwise, indicates a problem with some app or rom setting.
You're probably going to need to do a factory reset, but that's odd that it doesn't show up in bootloader or download mode. Have you tried the options in stock recovery (which is that screen with the red triangle)? Use the volume keys to change options.

Hi iElvis - the screen with the red triangle - there's nothing other than the red triangle, no options, no text and nothing happens if I press any of the physical buttons.

Trying a factory reset from safe mode - I'll let you know what happens!

Hmm. It would seem the Chinese models are set up differently, which would not surprise me at all.
