Hi, I'm still Locked S-ON.
I was having some issues post-update so I did a reset and it didn't help.
I attached to my laptop and use the HTC Sync Manager. That brings up the Verizon software tool.
It downloaded a 2.3 GB RUU and sent my phone through a series of flashes and re-boots.
It hangs at 19% and leaves my phone with the White on black HTC with the red security warning text.
I tried deleting the RUU and re-downloading but same result.
Any advice?
Nevermind, I got it to complete after another settings reset. Possibly related to my phone being encrypted?

So last night, i reboot my desire and it freezes just after displaying the lock screen. I eventually remove the battery and power it back on only to find out it's stuck at the htc logo screen.
I can get into the bootloader and fastboot, but if i try to start clockwork recovery it just goes back to the htc logo.
I tried just flashing with an official RUU but it says i have less than 30% battery remaining even if it's full.
Rooted with Unrevoked and running Defrost 5.8, radio 5.09.05.30.2, unbranded desire on Vodafone Romania.
Any ideas? And think i could take it back to Vodafone and ask them to just reflash it to stock?
It seems i'm also unable to use ADB as the phone is detected by windows but it doesnt show up when i do a "adb devices".
Anyone, please?
Just following this up in case it helps someone else.
I was able to fix it myself eventually. The 30% battery issue only happened my Windows 7 64-bit machine. I tried an official HTC RUU on a 32-bit Windows XP and it worked fine, i'm now back to the stock froyo for Desire.
The RUU i used was:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.10.405.2_R_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed
Can't post a link, but just google that and you should be fine.
Hey I'm having same problem I have telus htc desire. His did have fixed it can u help me. I'll donate
Well from what i can tell, it's almost impossible to find an original Telus rom to flash, and since i don't know anything about the network or it's practices i'm not sure what would happen if you just flash a generic WWE rom.
I'm sorry i can't be of more help on this but i won't make the problem potentially worse by giving you instructions that might not work for you.
Hopefully someone else around here knows more.
I have serious problems with my phone that I could really use some help with as at the moment I'm completely screwed - I've already spent hours reading forums but have yet to find advice that will help. Here's whats happened:
I have an A8181 HTC Desire, and I took an OTA update yesterday that bricked my wifi. At this point I thought it would be easiest to root my phone, and after checking that my hboot version was 0.93, I read advice that said to downgrade this to 0.83, which I duly did.
Now, my phone is stuck in a bootloader loop - I get the 3 androids on skatebooards with FASTBOOT in red, and I can choose from:
BOOTLOADER
REBOOT
REBOOT BOOTLOADER
POWER DOWN
If I select bootloader I then get:
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
I can access recovery and apply update.zip roms successfully (I've only tried official HTC 2.2 roms as the phone isnt rooted), but after doing so it just goes back to the bootloader loop.
If I select FASTBOOT then I'm just back at the first screen.
I've tried clearing cache and factory reset aswell, but I still can't get past this 2 screen loop.
It's like the bootloader just can't load whatever rom is installed.
Because the phone isn't booting up, I can't use adb or any other pc tools as the device is not detected on my pc - although it does show up in device manager on windows.
I'm close to sending this back to try a warrantly claim, although I'm worried that by trying to fix this I may have invalidated this.
I'd really appreciate any help or advice as to how I can get out of this and get my stock 2.2 back.
Cheers
If your computer using windows, have you installed hboot drivers?
If you have those installed your pc should detect the phone.

You shouldn't have had to downgrade your bootloader. If you can, go back to the newer.
The wifi issue, was widespread on desires, I had it also after a "pushed" update from HTC (european model, unlocked). I downloaded a stock 2.29 froyo. Had to make a gold card also. Took several tries, wipe cache, but eventually successful.
Then, I rooted, and went to CyanogenMod7 rom with clockwork recovery.
Hi!
I have a DHD with the FroYo Stock ROM. The device crashes quite often for a few weeks now, and I decided to upgrade the ROM using the regular HTC Software update in-device function as the device already reminded me of it for some time now.
It downloads the new rom without any problems, asks me to install it, reboots - and stucks at the "HTC" Logo (not already showing the "quite brilliant", just "HTC"). I tried this several times - no changes at all.
I tried to do a factory reset then, first using the "rest" menu in the system settings, then using the bootloader (should be the bootloader, the thing that opens when starting the device while pressing the vol-down button). The same behaviour here - the device reboots and stucks at the HTC Logo. I need to remove the battery - and nothing has changed. Therefore it isn't even possible to reset it any more but in general it's still usable (sending txt messages, calling, using apps).
At last I tried to do a manual ROM Update, and therefore installed Visionary. Unfortunately it crashes when trying to click on "temp root".
Do you have any idea what the problem might be and what I can do (except of sending it back to HTC, it's my only phone).
Thank you in advance!
How did you try to update it? With OTA update? If that's the case then try to update with the appropriate RUU instead.
How do I do that? I updated using the update procedure of the phone itself (Software Info -> Check for Updates).
Search is your friend Here's a link (md5: 74B9CE337AFC58EEB83966A4D9D79990) to the WWE (the generic one) Gingerbread RUU. Download it to your computer, start the HTC Sync application on your computer, connect your phone with the USB cable in HTC Sync mode and run the exe-file you just downloaded.
If your phone is branded or from a region that uses a specific rom you need to download the corresponding RUU for it.
doesn't work either.. might there be a general problem with maybe the boot loader? any other way of resetting the device?
How did it fail?

The RUU exe runs problemless, the progress is shown on the device and I get an confirmation message that the rom has been updated successfully.
The device restarts again and I see the "HTC" logo where it stucks again. After removing the battery and restarting everything is just as before - the updated didn't complete.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
If your bootloader is still stock and all official updates fail, its possible that you have a defect device. The froyo crashes are also an indicator. Do you have warranty for it?
yes, but it's my only device and the delay of sending it to HTC and getting it back after some time would therefore be very annoying...
Is there anything else that I might try?
Hello friends,
My HTC M9 is acting weird.It reboots endlessly whenever I connect to any Wi-Fi.There is no problem when
Wi-Fi is off.
Recently this problem has stretched to the mobile data connection also.Therefore now I can't use Wi-Fi and data so that the phone won't start rebooting.
Please help.
Is the phone rooted etc, we need more info. Do you remember when it started doing it?.
If the phone is running a stock rom and firmware you can try factory test mode by calling *#*#3424#*#*.

The phone is not rooted.Running stock Android 6.0
The problem started when I rebooted the device because the playstore updates where failing.
On that reboot,the phone was stuck on HTC One splash screen.So I pressed power,vol up & down to restart.Then it booted up.
When my Wi-Fi connection came up the phone started rebooting which is where the problem started.I tried a factory reset and it doubled the problem affecting data connection also.
Most times when I factory reset or reboot it will be stuck at HTC One splash screen and I will have to restart again.
The device model is OPJA100

Tried to install ruu.The Update utility proceeded until final step where it tells "It may take 10 mins to update your device".
The small window came up and phone rebooted to bootloader...deleted user data...and then a window came up saying update failed.The phone rebooted and now freezes at HTC One splash screen(Tried another reset but nothing).
What maybe the problem..is it because i'm having wrong ruu?
I am from India and here we don't use carrier devices.(The phones are not locked to any carrier.)
Note : I did not install HTC Sync Manager.Just enabled usb debugging in device settings.
what does it say in the update fail pop up? any error #?

The error code is 132 signarure error.
Update : I left the phone which was freezed showing HTC One splash screen and it turned off after the battery run out.
Now I plugged it in and powered on and the phone completed the boot and came to homescreen.
The problem is still there though.
So tried unlocking the bootloader and installing a custom rom and voila...the problem is now solved.
So I guess it was a software issue after all.
Didn't get as many replies as I expected but thanks everyone.
Tried to remove cynagenmod from my htc and return to stock android settings and messed up somewhere along the line, on powering on my phone it loads straight into the boot loader, navigating to >HBOOT then pressing >RECOVERY makes the HTC logo appear for a moment before returning to the first bootloader screen.
[software status modified, re locked, security warning, M8-UL PVT SHIP S-ON]
The rom has been deleted along with recovery, I am not an expert in using fastboot tried using it for a bit and had no success also tried installing htc sync manager to see if it would help but the installer for the sync manager would crash my computer every time (windows 10). Looking for some help as what to do not sure if it can be fixed or should I bin it thanks.
I would RUU if it was me in your position.

To properly troubleshoot where you went wrong, and how to solve it, you will need to describe the exact steps of how you tried to return to stock.
It seems you wiped things in recovery, expecting that to return you to stock? If so, that isn't the case as you now know, without flashing a ROM, TWRP backup, etc.
Similarly, relocking the bootloader renders the phone unable to boot, and wipes the phone; as it expects RUU to be run. But you haven't explained if you were trying to run an RUU, which one, details of your phone version, etc.
