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
Bravo PVT 1 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93 1002

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10509780&postcount=102
@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?
Any ideas guys?
Out of the blue my phone stopped receiving any reception. Zero bars and a cross.
I tried flashing a different rom to it just incase it was a buggy rom, no luck.
I've tried my sim in another phone it works fine, tried a different sim in the one x no reception.
I took it to tmobile and they said I need to send it off, it's broke. It's rooted, will they still send it for repairs? If all else fails can I get a link to flash stock firmware please?
Thanks in advance for any help

You could do a full reset back to stock or you can try other roms first since you are rooted already.
Btw you should ask questions in the Q&A section not general.
oops sorry, I was linked to this section by another (gaming) forum I frequent.
How do I do a full reset to stock? (I'm currently on insertCoin rom)

You can get a link to the ruu in the development forums.
Lock the bootloader and run the ruu to restore the phone to factory stock. Hopefully this removes the security warning, but if not then you will have to cross your fingers and hope that when T-Mobile sends it to HTC, that either you just get a refurb/new phone and they get to deal with what is most likely a crushed antenna contact (just like wifi antenna, but on 3G...), but there is a chance that they will simply claim your warranty is voided due to "illegal software", which is really just repair-center speak for "HTC will not pay us to repair this phone because it was unlocked at some point".
So the steps are (I'm a complete noob)
Connect phone via usb
Open One X AIO kit
Command > Relock bootloader
Run RUU.exe
What screen should my one x be showing when I will run RUU on my pc?
Any other steps I'm missing?
Do *#*#4636#*#* in the dailer, go to phone information and make sure that its set to WCDMA prefered.
Well I tried these steps;
Connect phone via usb
Open One X AIO kit
Command > Relock bootloader
Run RUU.exe
I get error message;
"ERROR [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR"

I got the same problem sometimes. Do you see network when you try to set manually the network carrier. If it's the case you need probably to set in automatic mode. For me, it s work.

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.
Are you sure it says locked or re locked?

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.

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

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.
Hi guys,
I have HTC One M8 Google Play Edition. My device was rooted but without any custom ROM. It was on the stock one. I have received the 4.4.3 updated but after I have updated my device, WiFi stopped working!! What is even more puzzling that debugging stopped working too! I factory reset my phone but the problem persists.
Any idea how to resolve the issue? Is flashing the full stock ROM going to resolve the issue? And how to do it if it does so.
Your help is highly appreciated.

Run the full RUU restore, it is widely available and should fix your problem. A lot of people have had issues with the update messing up certain features. This will obviously wipe your phone so backup if needed. You can get full ruu here rooted or stock.

Thank you for the fast response. But there is another problem that when I connect my device to the computer USB debugging is not working so I will not be able to send commands from my computer. I am not sure what the problem with it.

It should work from your bootloader. "hboot" I edited my other post too, you can grab ruu directly from htc website for gpe.

correct, you will be using fastboot commands. If you download it from htc, it has instructions. The first guide I linked you too says you need soff, but I wouldn't think that matters since you have a true gpe. I would think it would just error out anyway if it wouldn't work with the "fastboot oem rebootRUU" since you are still s-on.

You must choose fastboot in boot loader, not hboot. if you are soff, you should have no problem
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip googleplay.zip
"do it again"
fastboot flash zip googleplay.zip
fastboot reboot

I am not sure what is not working here. When I write the command in the terminal this is what I get or "device not found"

You need to get fastboot working. There are plenty of guides on this.

Hello Ladies and gentlemen, please I need help here.... My HTC 10 is brick and I'm trying to unbrick it but can't for these reasons:-
1-locked bootloader, S-ON
2-stock recovery is not there... Can't open it
3-downloading mode is not working too, doesn't open
4-bootloader opens fine , I tried using fast boot to flash the stock RUU but it's saying "can't while S-ON)
5- tried the official RUU exe , not working because it keeps on saying (battery less than 30%) , now plz don't tell me to charge it cause İTS CHARGED!! But the problem is that there is a bug where fast boot can't read the battery ... Getvar command will give you (nothing) (empty)... That's why RUU still says "battery less than 30%"
I tried EVERY thread on the internet , nothing works unfortunately!
Please people help :crying:
I don’t know this battery problem. But try resetting or recalibrating battery .
1) Connect the phone to wall charger for 10 mins.
2) with the switch turned off and phone power off
Press and hold volume up and down button ( both volume button ) and power button for 2 min and leave all the button .
3) charge it full / or for long period , probably 3-4 hrs
4) try flashing ruu now.

Unlock bootloader
Find your stock recovery.img version
Put your HTC on bootloader mode (dont need download mode)
Flash Stock recovery via ADB (command: fastboot flash recovery name_of_recovery.img)
Flash RUU via MicroSD card
Relock bootloader

I can't, because debugging mode is off and "unlock bootloader" in settings is off too... And I can't boot up to system as it's brick :'(... But thanks for the reply anyway, anymore ideas?

Once unlocked your bootloader please NEVER relock it....it has no purpose. All you do is lock yourself out of your device once in trouble. Worst advice ever.

Many people don't know that relocking the BL doesnt do any good. If your device is not completely stock and you relock the BL you are screwed!!!
You can flash ruu files with an unlocked BL, you can update officially with an unlocked BL, it has no value what so ever to relock it. Believe me, I know this stuff !

And why so many unnecessary steps, no need to flash a stock recovery before a ruu, the ruu does it for you.

1: shame it's locked.
2: stock recovery is probably there but you need a button combo to enter it, you probably see some kind of exclamation sign ?
3: you say it doesn't open....means what ? Does the device start bootlooping, does it reboot to the bootloader ?
4: did you try to flash a ruu.zip in "ruu mode" ? (google for the exact fastboot command to enter ruu mode)
5: nothing to say about that.
