My HTC Desire HD tried to update to 2.3 via OTA and now is stuck at the white HTC screen. Recovery won't do anything, neither with the RUU exe files.
Anything like Odin I can use to fix this? Or some other way to use ADB to push the rom onto the phone?
Thanks
Give it some time first boot always takes some time

ops wrong thread. this is not question & answer thread. btw i will post the answer.
if you want to flash a custom rom , please downgrade back to android 2.2 froyo build 1.32 because you cant root on android 2.3 gingerbread ..
use this link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905003
(no problem if you can't get past to htc screen now, just take out your sd card and put the file on your sdcard, once you downgrade , then you can root and flash clorkworkmod via rom manager (download from market) ).
then you can flash a custom rom ( make sure you s-off first )
all about desire hd, you can find it here.

When you say recovery don't do anything, what exactly do you mean? What are you trying? Recovery fixes just about everything...
As far as ODIN, that's Samsung only. I feel like I've seen some HTC software close to this but it's not widely distributed if there is either due to lack of leaks or lack of usefulness.
And the guy above is right, it does take a while for that first boot so make sure you give it 10 mins before trying something else. Shouldn't take that long but just to be sure.
Use RUU when you are in bootloader.

Fingers crossed!!

i dont know if i wanna root it with supervision or guidance if u would hit me up via an IM that would be great but i owe u man
Basically you're now on a generic 1.21 WWE ROM. The next step is rooting and using a custom recovery to flash a custom ROM. Use unrEVOked (which is currently down due to a few bugs in the latest version) to root the phone and it also flashes a custom recovery so you can flash custom ROMs
Other way is to just get the 2.2 OTA update to be on official FroYo (you'd need a gold card if you have a branded Desire, mind) if you're not bothered about custom ROMs, etc...

Whatever happened to the unrEVOked btw? What went wrong with the latest ver?
Apparently some HTC EVO users reported it bricking their phones so it's been taken down until the bugs are fixed...good thing if you ask me
Hello, first I would like to apologize as I am clearly a noob and have very little idea of what I am talking about.
I'm sure my problem has been asked before and that if I had any idea what the problem was, I could find the exact solution I need here on the forums. Unfortunately I don't even know what to search for. If any one would like to complain go ahead but please..just help me.
So I decided to root my HTC Sensation, which I believe I did without any problem, I followed the guide on this site. Nothing went wrong and as far as I was aware everything was working fine.
I then decided to flash a new ROM onto the phone. I chose the Android Revolution HD as this looked to be the popular choice. I got it from here and I believed I had followed the instructions on how to install it properly.
However, after installing the ROM I came upon a problem, the phone would not start, it would just go to the HTC boot screen and stay there forever. At first I couldn't even get back to the hboot screen, but after inserting a new and better charged battery I was able to get there, but every time I do it attempts to update and says " CID incorrect! Update Fail! Press <POWER> to reboot." and I cant do anything but get stuck in this continuous loop.
If I take the SD card out I can access the HBOOT properly, however trying to do a recovery at this point doesn't seem to work.
I have no idea what to do and would appreciate any help anyone can give me. I would be happy to just have my phone back to the way it was originally.
Thanks
Might wanna try a RUU? not sure but hopefully it should do..

First off your MAJOR issue is that you flashed a rom for the Desire HD section(As soon as I clicked on your link, it said Android Revolution 7.0.2... I was like wtf? There is no 7.0.2 on the sensation forum) ... I think that's the prob... for now! Flash the correct rom and stay in the right section!
Second, I don't see why you can't get into recovery. Remove your sd card, power on the phone by holding vol-down +power to get to bootloader, select recovery and flash the right rom. I would also recommend that you delete the P58IMG.zip off your sd card as well. I'm assuming you have it on there for the ICS firmware but flashed the incorrect rom. You are far from bricking it, but keep this up and it might turn into one!
Thanks, your post is certainly reasuring though I am still not sure how to continue. Also it is possible I gave the wrong link to the rom I used, though it definitely was the same name.
Anyway what Im thinking I have to do now is 1st delete p58img.zip file from my SDcard and put the right rom on there, could you link to one?
So by removing that file I should be able to access the SDcard again and flash the new rom?

Here's the right link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1098849
This is an ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) Rom
So you need:
1) SuperCID (so that you can flash any firmware)
Instructions
2) Flash the ICS firmware (otherwise you can't use the ICS roms)
http://goo.gl/RcbMy (and make SURE that there aren't any errors - errors such as not doing the SuperCID process correctly, therefore it can't flash - I say this because it seems like many users think the firmware is flashed and then find out their rom won't start, so don't be stupid and check whether or not an error has occurred just incase!)
3) Pick a rom
Revolution
Elegancia
Insert Coin
4) Flash the 4EXT recovery, I'm sure you already have clockwork mod on there but I think that's a bit buggier... so if I were you, I'd go for the 4EXT touch recovery
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377759
5) If you wish, you can also flash for example: tweaks and addons by awsm devs which make our phone much better if you wish!
6) you're good to go! It's that easy.
Yeah, all you have to do is remove that P58IMG.zip from your sd card and your bootloader won't force you to update or w/e. You'll be fine.
And don't forget to md5 check for roms you download !
Sent from my HTC-Z710a using xda premium
Thank you very much. It seems I hadn't performed the SuperCID part. Once I had done that I installed Elegancia and it is working perfectly.
Thanks again for your help, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain that to me.
Hi
Im new here I had read the all similar threads that the forum found but no one could help me to solve my problem.
Time ago I rooted and get S-off my HTC Incredible S s710e using Unrevoke, I decided to use my stock rom instead a cooked one so I lost root but stil have S-off.
Im using Android 2.3.3 and
Sense 2.1,
My baseband version is 20.2805.30.0805.04.03.27_M and
Kernel: 2.6.35.9-g529446e
I recived an OTA update with Android 3.5 and Sense 3.0 and I proceeded with it, everything goes well until the phone restarts and stay freeze in the green HTC logo. Nothing else happens. I had to search for my RUU file ( I use this one ---> RUU_Vivo_Gingerbread_S_hTC_Asia_HK_2.12.708.4_Radio_20.2805.30.085AU_3805.04.03.27_M_release_189979_signed.exe ) I extracted the rom.zip changed the name to PG32IMG and restored my phone like before.
I need help figuring out how I can do to upgrade via OTA without that brick (I want the official update to 3.5 so then I can get official ICS update). I tried to extract the official RUU rom with sense 3.0 and android 3.5 and install it but its the same problem.
Someone could help me solve my problem? Please. :crying:
I attached a .jpg of my Bootloader.
Thanks for your time and understanding​
BTW...........sorry for putting my post in the wrong section. I would have posted in the right one but I dont have enough posts.
You are s off, you better not run the ruu just how it is
It would probably be better/easier to flash a custom ROM

So I just spent ages installing Pacman Rom onto my phone, only to realise I've come to the end of my contract and will get an upgrade instead!
I'd like to take it back to a decent HTC stock rom, with an updated Sense and so on, and give that handset to my Mum.
My phone is currently rooted and s-off. As I understand it, I need to:
Create a backup using CWM or similar
Follow this video and use Android Flasher to remove Revolutionary while in Bootloader
Copy an appropriate RUU file to the SD card and install from wthin the Bootloader
Does this sound legit? I've ran into Errors 131 and 140 before while trying to run an RUU off my desktop. Also is it possible just to get an HTC RUU with Android 2.3.5 on it rather than factory 2.3.3?

Hey, I've spent the past few hours searching the forum and googling. Not been able to find the answers so far... Can I just place an RUU.exe and run it off my SD card? It seems removing root using Android Flasher will leave me with Pacman rom... Surely having s-on and a custom rom will mess up my phone?

Just uninstall whichever root app is present on the ROM (Superuser or SuperSU), voila, you're 100% stock.

thankx
thanks for your help but I guess I won't be able to installed ota anymore? though I don't think there be any coming to the phone anymore
Why do you think that? If the phone has an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery (which you'd need to flash a nand) you shouldn't take an OTA anyway. If you want to go completely back to stock you need to get s-off so you can run the last Telstra RUU (1.89 I think), lock your bootloader, and take every OTA to get back up to date.

Hang on...
Firstly, you tried to downgrade the phone to Froyo? This device has never had Froyo on it, the earliest version of Android that it came with was Ice Cream Sandwich. So what on earth did you try to flash to your device??
Secondly, the other thread that you link to isn't for this phone, it's for the HTC Droid Incredible.
Mate, it seems as if you've been attempting to flash firmwares and exploits from other devices onto this phone, it's a wonder you haven't bricked the thing! ROMs, kernels, radios, firmwares, exploits, etc, are only compatible for the device that they were developed for, they're not interchangeable. This is our device section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-x-att
Do not, under any circumstances, wander outside of that section and its sub-forums for anything or it's only a matter of time before you have an expensive paperweight.
Now, what recovery do you have on the phone?
PS. You should edit that image asap, it shows your IMEI, that's something you should never post publicly.
Ty for help and your time first.
I edited photo in paint but you need to edit your post too because picture is still there.
My phone is HTC One XL, xda wont accept this when I enter my device.
Well it's a wonder I didn't throw my phone into the wall.
So everything was fine on this phone until battery started to dry out fast, it's started to lag and everything was slow, clean master, battery doctor didn't help, factory reset few times didn't help.
Then I tried to install CM with this instructions ( I can't link it but when you enter in Google how to install CM on HTC One XL it will pop out wiki ) but my phone wouldn't boot any CM for my phone known as "evita", it would stuck at boot looping.
I have access to recovery. bootloader, fastboot and everything so still it isn't a brick.
I have this recovery img TWRP 2.7.0.8. but if needed I can change it into ClockworkMod 6.0.4.8.
I don't have many experiences in rooting android but I learned some basic commands in cmd with fastboot and adb.

I've edited the image out of my post. Your phone probably boot looped after installing CM because you didn't flash the boot.img via fastboot afterwards, am I right? Because you're s-on and have firmware equal to or higher than 1.14 your phone can't flash the boot.img during a ROM flash in recovery, this means you need to do it manually with fastboot after flashing the ROM. I have detailed instructions in my guide thread (link in my signature).
You need to run an RUU which will take the device back to stock and hopefully clear up the issues you've been facing. In order to run an RUU you first need to get s-off (and SuperCID if you don't already have it). In order to get s-off you need to first flash the Kickdroid 5.0 ROM (Rumrunner s-off has the highest success rate on this ROM).
1. Flash Kickdroid (don't forget to flag the boot.img afterwards too).
2. Go to the Rumrunner site and get s-off.
3. Check your CID:
Code:
fastboot oem readcid
3b. If it's anything other than 11111111 you need to change it:
Code:
fastboot oem writecid 11111111
4. You can now run whatever Evita RUU you want, and leave the device stock for a couple of days to see if your problems persist. What variant is the phone? At&t? Rogers? Telstra? Hong Kong?
Transmitted via Bacon
I did everything what it's says on rumrunner s-off page before I tried to install CM
well I would link to you what steps I was following but I am junior member so I can't, as I said write in google how to install cm on htc one xl and you will get wiki page and there will be steps which I followed.
How could I install then telestra if I didn't was s-off?
I am very tired now but I will answer to you some basic question you asked.
I am on vodafone variant or in my country (Croatia) it's vip, so when I get some sleep I need to install Kickdroid (well in the morning I guess I would figure out what flag the boot.img mean), and after Kickdroid I can install any RUU I want but need one for vodafone am I right? something like this? RUU_EVITA_UL_ICS_40_S_Vodafone_CH-DE_2.41.166.1_Radio_0.20os.32.09.10_2_10.113.32.28L_release_280222_signed
I found that on this page AndroidRUU, and when I bought my phone it was on German lang.
And if I manage to install Kickdroid and then RUU I will try to give a chance and see if it work normally but if not I can install again Kickdroid and have that rom? And I can install some kernel but for now I don't know what kernel is and I don't understand do I need to install kernel or not? Oh man ty for your time and explanation I need to take some time and to figure all of this and to install properly .
Forget about whatever you did or didn't do in the past, it didn't work and there's no point wondering why right now because I've laid out a plan for you to move forward. Install Kickdroid, get s-off with Rumrunner, and run an RUU. You don't necessarily have to run a Vodafone RUU, you can run any Evita RUU, but yes the one you mentioned is compatible. You absolutely must get s-off before running any RUU though or you will brick the phone. Follow the steps I mentioned before exactly and you should be ok.
Just realised I missed some of your questions. If you want use Kickdroid as your ROM you definitely can, it's a very good ROM. It's a bit hard to describe what a kernel is briefly, but put simply it's a separate level of firmware that controls how the software or OS (and you) interacts with with hardware. You don't need to flash a kernel, every ROM zip contains a kernel already, otherwise the phone wouldn't operate, it wouldn't even boot up. There are custom kernels available that allow a bit of extra tweaking, like overclocking (or underclocking) the CPU, undervolting, sound tweaks, and various other much more complicated tweaks.
