Tried so many things and read a lot of threads..
Battery just died and when I tried to start it up, just goes in boot loop.
Only place I can get into is the bootloader (white screen). Unlocked and S-on.
Have TWRP and rooted rom..
Won't go into download mode or recovery..
Anyone any ideas?
Possible to kinda make it 'stock' anyway to give it back into warranty?
Thank you..

Hi all, I've arranged to have my phone replaced because the trackpad has stopped working so I wanted to unroot the phone before I sent it back. I was on hboot 0.75 and CM6 rom before I tried to unroot. I flashed the RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe file from this forum hoping it would take me back to standard 2.1. When I boot the phone I get the white HTC screen for a while before it reboots and shows again for a while...a boot loop I guess. I can get back into hboot/fastboot but going to recovery gives a boot loop like a normal boot. I've since flashed the official froyo update using a goldcard and that seems to be doing the same thing.
Any help anyone can give me would be great...I've hit my limit on trying to fix it and I'm starting to get a bit worried!
Thanks
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.
http://www.droid-den.com/android-guides/android-guide-how-to-create-a-gold-card
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...
Hi,
I've attempted the JB update
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737899..
fastboot flash boot boot.img etc.. which said all was well..
But now find that my phone will not boot up, doesn't get past the Google and unlock screen.
I've tried all combinations of volume buttons, I can get to the fasboot menu where I can choose either Recovery Mode, Power Off, Start or Restart bootloader.
None of these appear to do anything, recovery goes to the google a screen followed by an Android on it's back with an exclamation mark over it.. then goes to the Google and unlocked icon screen and stays there...
I fear my phone is bricked... Please help..

1.) Your phone is far from bricked at all. You have access to the boot loader (i.e. the screen with the options). The recovery you're seeing is stock recovery. All you need to do is go into boot loader and fastboot flash recovername (CWM) and you will have your custom recovery back to wipe data and reinstall a rom or restore a nandroid backup
Mine is doing the same thing, weird thing is, it was working since yesterday on jellybean, it just randomly froze this morning and and now won't boot..
im currently at work so i don't have admin rights to do a fastboot flash..
any idea why it would randomly stop working when i havn't flashed anything on it besides the jb rom?
Sorted..
Thanks for the comments.. yeah i was over-reacting a bit there..
I downloaded the Galaxy Nexus Toolkit, got a stock rom form gopogle, flashed it.. back to normal, well, it will be after i restore the CWM backup i took.. phew..
Thanks again
Ian.
Still stuck
I'm also stuck in the same situation(google with the unlock screen). I fear I'm a little more stuck. I also can see the recovery/restartbootloader screen. However, everything I try still comes back to that same google screen and gets hung up. Need some help!
this has happened twice today and i think it from using volume+

Boot into recovery, wipe cache, Reboot
I made a series of follies trying to root my phone. Using Hasoon 2000's all in one HTC one X kit I tried to install CWM recovery before I rooted the phone. When I tried to go into recovery mode after that it would just give me that red script with the legal warning underneath the HTC boot screen and stay there. In my attempt to fix the problem I tried to flash the stock kernal which resulted in me getting stuck in a boot loop to the HTC screen with the red warning. Factory reset did not do anything. So I had the brilliant idea of re-locking the boot loader.
So now my phone boots up to the bootloader screen, no matter what I do. Factory reset, boot into recovery mode, reboot, all lead me back to the same place.
Fastboot does seem to be working which leaves some hope I can un-brick this thing. I tried several times throughout the process to clear the fastboot cache through the ADB shell which seems to have executed successfully, but made to no difference.
Can someone walk me through the steps to get back to a working phone with a working recovery mode? Help would be much appreciated!
Search XDA for "red triangle", there are quite a few posts about how to fix that.
Please use search.
There is a tread in which it is describe how to fix your phone " from disaster "
I think it is in One X Android ROM section.
Search for tutorial and disaster pr something like this.
Hope this will help you.
Regards.

{UPDATE} : I was able to unlock my bootloader again which now results in a bootloop to that HTC screen with the red legal notice. I can get into the bootloader if I power on with volume down.

now I have to see if I can get this thing rooted finally.
Just got my HTC One M9 (Canadian on Bell today).
I go home to start getting all my apps and data back on and the phone reboots itself, half way through the reboot, it reboots all over again. This just keeps going on creating a massive bootloop.
I can get into flashboot mode. But none of the options in there seem to help.
I've tried flashing the RUU but am S-ON so that was no good.
I've tried everything I can think of and got nowhere.
Any help is greatly appreacited
Have you tried going into recovery and doing a factory reset?

The phone won't even boot into recovery. Just keeps boot looping when selecting that too.

if you have a costume recovery hold Volume UP and DOWN and POWER button at the same time, it should take you to the boot loader there boot to recovery
No custom recovery.
Phone is completely stock.

maybe the power button is stuck or something any updates?
Thought about that idea.
Brought it back to bell and traded it for another. No issues yet...
