Trying to rescue my friends Desire....

Hello,
since Saturday I'm trying to unbrick?! my friend's phone.
It doens't boot up into the rom and neither in the clockworkmod...
Booting into the bootloader is fine.
When starting the phone sometimes vibrites 7 times and then stuck at the htc logo. It's really rare to see a full boot.
I can't push a new cwm because it is S-on
Trying to get S-off seems impossible because I never get 2 complete restarts in a row.
Here some technical info:
Clockworkmod 2.5
Cyanogemod
Rooted
S-on
HBOOT 0.92.0001
Radio 5.09.00.20
Should I install a RUU to stabilisize the phone?
Please help me

yes try an RUU - make sure you have the right one though

How do I know it's the right one? It is unbranded, so which should I choose?
RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.1_Radio_32.30.00.28U _4.05.00.11_release_121684.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.3_Radio_32.30.00.28U _4.05.00.11_release_121865.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4. 06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed.exe

Thx! I'll try it.
Stay tuned XD
Edit: Error 132...
"Signatur Error" and now?
Edit 2: Installed HTC Sync and now it flashes the RUU. Let's wait
Edit 3: Stoppt by 35% Funk..... Restartet phone... now I get a HTC logo with Warnsigns in every corner... Can't boot into the bootloader
Edit 4: found the RIGHt RUU and endet up with the error 152...
Here is a screenshot after the error
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I got a complete RUU flash now but nothing changed. So I flashed it once more... it got stucked... I pulled out the battery and now the phone seems dead...
No charging light, no vibrations, nothing.
RIP?

Quite probably. I'd get HTC involved at this point.

I will.
But the Email Support doesn't work and the chat is offline.
So I call them tomorrow with my phone.
Thank you all, now I know much more about troubleshooting than before XD
Edit: After one hour the E-Mail has been sent. *Hope*

no i can't

You're not supposed to flash those onto your phone...It's official. Head over to #g2root in the freenode irc and ask for help. You may be able to fix your phone.e
Sent from my DZ.

i went there and no one is answering, any way i found this, while RUU started updating my desire z from my computer, i disconnected the USB, the black htc logo turned in to white, and i saw a parsing process, everything is ok, but it stuck in updating USERDATA. this is the problem
maybe this helps

after executing this line in cmd with fastboot
fastboot.exe flash zip PC10IMG.zip
i got this

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

The experts are in freenode IRC channel #G2ROOT.
When you just tried once then try again, and again.
You can find awesome people there, but they also work and have a life and provide help for free. So there is not always help available.

[SOLVED]HTCDev unlock? Error 191

Hi.
I'm having trouble unlocking the bootloader.
The first attempt:
I follow this guide, HTC Dev exe "works". After reboot the HBOOT is still 2.00.0027. At this point the firmware is 3.12.405.1.
I try the HTC exe again and get error 191. I run the Telus WWE 3.13.661.4 RUU exe, works fine. Try the HBOOT exe for that, and get error 191 here too.
I create a goldcard and put Telus WWE 3.13.661.4 on SD as PD98DIAG. The file keeps loading while saying "no image". Then i get the option to press vol up to flash and vol down to cancel. The phone freezes and it doesn't care what i press.
EDIT: Just tried choosing any option in fastboot while idle and it seems bootloader doesn't react to the volume keys eitherway...
Then I remember reading that the RUU zip is supposed to be newer than the current and try H3G UK 3.13.771.2, this time ONLY as a zip on sdcard. It fails and says that my current sw (telus wwe 3.13.661.4) is newer or "Main Image is older"..
Can you guys help me? After playing around with Samsung Galaxies and Sony Xperias this seems all too complicated lol
EDIT: Read below for solution.

first you have to upgarde your hboot to 2.00.0029
try one of these :

Miillaaad, your first link was great!
I did manage to get as far as above photo shows.
But I tested the volume buttons in android and they seem to be fully dead!!
Is there another way to get past that screen, or a "silent" way of flashing the unlockcode?
EDIT: Ok, so after i punched the volume buttons really hard and fast for a minute, they started to work. Bootloader unlocked, woohoo!!!!
Thank you very much Miillaaad!!!

Bootloader starts always after restart

I have a problem with any updates or even factory reset. When I start an updaete, after restart the phone the bootloader appears and it make to stop the process of the update or factory reset. The phone HTC ONE M8 was rooted with s-off before, but I did return it to the stock (problem with camera and I need to take it back to the store on guarantee) the only thing what I forget to do was to change "software status: Modified" to "Software status: Official". Can anyone help me? The screen from bootloader attached.

Try install 4.16.401.10 RUU.exe - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56140330&postcount=1
Maybe it will change the software status to official.

Thx for quick reply. Is it possible to make the install with S-ON? I found one more thing. When I tried to make an update, Bootloader appears with one more line of text on pink background - *** Security Warning *** - it appears between *** LOCKED *** and "M8_UL PVT SHIP S-ON. "

Yeah.. you can install RUU on S-On device when the bootloader is LOCKED or RELOCKED.
Security Warning I guess due to Modified Status.
Give the RUU a try and see how it goes. As long as there is no hardware problem like corrupted partitions, RUU will run fine.

I have installed 4.16.401.10 RUU.exe from the previous post and everything works great. In bootloader The Software status have changed to Official. So now the HTC m8 looks like it just came out from the box . I can send it to the service to fix the back camera. Thank you ckpv5!

M9 boot loop

Hello there! Apologies for the vague thread name, I'm actually unsure what is wrong with the phone -long story short, I've bought it in CashConverters, thinking I could earn some (M9 for thirdy quid? bloody hell).
The phone does turn on, so I don't think it's hard-bricked. When the phone is turned on, it goes to this menu
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
REBOOT and REBOOT TO BOOTLOADER result in the same, as does turning it on after POWER DOWN.
After pressing BOOT TO DOWNLOAD MODE, this menu pops up, and pretty much goes back to the first one upon VOL UP or VOL DOWN.
BOOT TO RECOVERY MODE does work, and results in this menu
I have once attempted to "apply an update from SD card", it resulted in this, and decided not to test my luck.
Couple things to note, I do IT for a living, started working on it yesterday, 2pm - 2am, mostly reading through XDA and android pages, didn't manage to find a solution yet, and I'll stab myself with a spoon if I failed at searching.
My question is: can I fix it? Is it worth it?

You could flash a RUU.exe if its a tmobile, verizon, sprint etc. Other than that i dont know... You cant even see what firmware number you got

I assume it's O2 because it says himauhl_o2_uk, plus an O2 sticker. Other than that, I don't know, as I can only access recovery, and literally got it in that state.
Edit: I assume it's caused by someone disconnecting the phone while updating through HTC Sync, but I am unsure.

I am having this same exact issue with my Sprint M9. I have tried installing the 0PJAIMG from the SD Card and no love. Get error E:footer is wrong signature verification failed.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.
