[Q] White screen after RUU - HTC Desire S

Hi there. I've recently decided to change my desire s software back to its original one, and downloaded the RUU called
RUU_Saga_S_HTC_ARA_2.14.415.3_Radio_20.4801.30.0822U_3822.10.08.04_M_release_226003_signed.exe
and after installing the update the phone showed only white screen with an HTC logo in the center and didn't boot up. Is there any way to bring it back to life?

please write the contents of you boot loader screen

I believe it's hboot loader. Tomorrow after I receive it from HTC (with refused warranty of course) I will write the menu options if necessary.

try to reboot into bootloader and enter recovery, try to perform a full data reset and clear the cache.
What happens on boot?

The bootloader's content is:
SAGA PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-6.98.1002
RADIO-3822.10.08.04_M
eMMC-boot
Mar 10 2011, 14:58:38
HBOOT
-fastboot
-recovery
-factory reset
-simlock
-image crc
when I select recovery it shows a phone with green arrows and after it loads it shows red warning sign. Factory reset doesn't fix it also.

try to flash new recovery with adb

can you give me some guide topic or etc?

I can't find a topic that explains the process in my case. And from where I should get the new recovery from?

I can't access the phone with adb when in the bootloader menu. When I go to recovery it says: E:Can't open /cache/recovery/command and when I try to install an update it says Invalid command and reboots... any ideas?
I forgot to mention that the bootloader is revolutionary.

Moving to Q&A

first, i think that u flashed an arabic RUU (why?...i see you are from Bulgaria)
second, you should first flash an ENG HBOOT (0.98..)
then reflash a RUU - this time check to see which RUU suits your phone

[Q] Bricked, HTC BOOTLOOP, No RECOVERY, Begging You

hi all xda community !
So here is the situation :
HBOOT Screen :
***UNLOCKED***
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********
hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.
Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...
Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too
Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.
Please come on gtalk . My gtalk id is musarraf172
ok i'm on gtalk wait for ya
so i'm still in the BOotLoop mode.
i've tried almost everything who was in the forum.
i'm aware of the noob style problem(Firmware not updated, still got PM58IMG.zip in SDcard, wrong Rom--firmware etc ..) and i'm not in this case !!!!
I think the device is brick but maybe someone with good knowledge, and experience can help me.
For now i got the last Hboot, i can flash recovery from fastboot , the command return OK but recovery wont boot.
Ruu flashing run nice with no problem but don't Boot (.exe and PM58IMG.zip).
when i try to unlock bootloader (who is already mark S-OFF but just for try)
with the HTCDEV method i'm stuck on the Unlock bootloader screen and i can't click YES.

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc
my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.
i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :
RUU_Pyramid_HTC_Europe_1.27.401.3_Radio_10.42.9007.00P_10.11.9007.

[Q] HTC sensation Boot loader stuck

Hi
I update my phone to ICS by RUU and I couldn't open it. The boot animation is stuck in the green HTC logo. "Quietly brilliant" doesn't even come on.
So i tried to flash the RUU again but it said Error 155. So i tried to superwipe. But when I go into the bootloader and into Recovery, the screen just flashed and went black. And showed the phone icon with a red cross. Seems like I can't get into recovery to install zip from card.
My bootloader says -
UNLOCKED
PYRAMID PVT SHIP S-0N RL
HBOOT - 1.27.0000
eMMC - BOOT
Jan 13 2012, 17:33:34
Please help me.
Since you are using RUU I wonder it will been fine even you are on custom ROM.
I guest maybe you are using wrong version of RUU make sure you are using the right ROM.
If would you like to try you may would like to revert back the Recovery if your are using custom recovery with this guide [GUIDE] Get Stock Recovery/Install OTA Updates without losing data.

the error you have represents connection issues
you need to run the RUU from fastboot mode in device (your device should read "fastboot usb")
Also you got stuck after running RUU ?? weird ...did the RUU ran first time completely ?
Also for safe RUN ...relock the boot loader and run the RUU...by keeping the phone in fastboot mode (device reads "fastboot usb")
Ok. So I relock my bootloader and I tried to install it. It said Error 140 - Bootloader version error. It's in fastboot USB mode. The installer get up to the Updating signature stage but then it gave error. I have SUPERcid. help?

as you are S-ON currently ..you cant run RUU having lower bootloader versions....(thats why you are getting bootloader errors)
right now you can only run ICS RUU's...
as you are superCID you can get any ICS RUU..
to RUN the RUU
1.make sure your bootloader is locked/relocked
2.keep the device in fastboot usb (i.e. connect it to pc when in fastboot )
3.run the RUU from PC
(only if RUU runs completely and gives you congats message --then only RUU is successful)
if you got any errors even after doing this...please post the error in this thread

[Q] Stuck on Splash Screen, adb and fastboot not responding

HTC z710a
Unlocked with S-On
hboot 1-27.0000 pyramid
android 4.0.3
ROM version 3.32.666.53
Unknown Radio
rooted with superuser
I tried to install SmartDroidBerserk 2.2 for my htc sensation tonight. After following the instructions on your website http(removeThis://)smartdroidromsDOTcom/berserk.htm I ran into a huge problem; I'm stuck on the HTC splash screen.
I followed the instructions up to where it said to flash the rom. I believe that I misread this part as meaning that you could install the rom from the zip on the sd card, so I tried to do so. I got an installation error with a status 1 message during the installation. I thought that if I tried to reboot my phone that I could try to reinstall the rom or revert back to an old backup through recovery and then try to actually flash the rom the 'proper' way.
I'm now stuck on the HTC splash screen and can't do anything with my smartphone. I tried to connect it to my computer to run adb to get it back into the bootloader. When I try adb devices it doesn't even recognize that my phone is attached. The same goes for fastboot devices - no return. When I go to my computer and try and select my phone as a removable disk, windows asks me to insert a disk into the disk drive because I formatted the phone during your installation process. After I discovered that I can't use adb to get back into the bootloader, I tried to press volume down and power at the same time but I still can't get into the bootloader with that method, it just stalls on the htc splash screen, not even displaying the "quietly brillant" slogan.
If there's anything that anyone can think that would help my situation, I'd be extremely grateful! I've got a 600$ brick!!

I was able to get into the bootloader by holding down Vol + power (guess I wasn't holding it down long enough). When I get into the bootloader and try to go into recovery my phone still gets stuck on the htc splash screen for some odd reason.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yes, I put adb and fastboot in a folder C:\mini-adb and navigated to that folder. adb would print out 'attached devices are' and nothing below it when I would run adb devices. fastboot devices simply returned nothing.
I got to the second step part 9 where it asked me to fastboot reboot after flashing the recovery (which was successfully written) however when I try to reboot it just stays stuck on the htc splash screen still.
Sorry for the double post.. I just removed my battery and was able to go back into the bootloader and could get into recovery. I was able to restore a prior rooted backup but whenever I try to reboot my smartphone it loads into recovery and not into my rom.
I have the added problem of not being able to access the sd card where I would put the Android Revolution .zip file. Whenever I try to access the phone's drive windows ask me to please insert a disk into removable disk F:.
EDIT: I just used the rom in the opening post instead of using the Android Revolution rom and it installed just fine. I can use my phone again! Thanks so much rzr!

Inspire 4g MAJOR Problem !

I am SO Freaking lost..... My problem is my phone will freez at the HTC splash screen, and the only things I can get into is bootloader and 4ext recovery. I can't flash any images they don't want to be flashed with the PD98img.zip I can't do anyting my phone is empty with no android os.. I am stuck. I can't seem to do much with fastboot with images either.

can you give some background as what you did to get the phone into this state?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1208507 I tried this to restore my phone thinking it would fix all my problems instead I must have messed something up, and now i'm pretty sure my phone is a paper weight. I managed to run fastboot oem rebootRUU and installed htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe but it hangs at white screen with HTC logo.

In the link you provided, on the first page, there were two seperate downloads, depending on when the phone was developed. "Download (restores to official Froyo 2.2.2) (315MB)" and also "Download (restores to official Gingerbread 2.3.3) (309MB)". Was just wondering which one you tried if any at all.
The only thing I can boot into is the 4ext Recovery Touch & hboot Can someone send me stock inspire 4g rom 4ext backup files they are *.tar files [email protected] Or [email protected]
Would that restore my system ?
the phone is
*** Unlocked ***
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.00.0030

If this helps
The 4ext Touch Recovery says under info
system ext3 549.2mb 504.9 free
data ext3 1.1gb 1.0 free

4.Reboot to HBOOT: Shutdown completely (disconnect USB if connected and pull battery if necessary) then while holding down the VOL-DOWN key, press the POWER key for about half a second. The phone should boot into HBOOT, check the PD98IMG.zip for consistency, then prompt you to install. Select VOL-UP to install.
5.Once installed, HBOOT will prompt you to reboot by pressing the POWER button. Do this
I can get to step 4 and instead of flashing the PD98IMG.zip is says parsing and just goes back to hboot. I can't flash anything.
I have been making some MAJOR progress on my phone.. after messing around with a lot of fastboot commands, I found this with helped .. fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img if forces some images to boot.
Also the link I posted above only will work if my phone is relocked. I can't even make post in the Inspire 4G Android Development , because i'm "too new " to ask a question. But I managed to get his program to run again and I've noticed something. on step 7
7.Once successfully completed, the phone will automatically reboot to HBOOT and begin the process of installing the RUU. The only thing you have to do at this point is acknowledge the prompt to install by pressing VOL-UP. (Note: the RUU install may skip a couple of images during the install but this is normal.
IT FAILS to copy the RUU to the sdcard. and that's what has left my phone without an OS. I've also got the stock RUU htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe to run and complete But my phone hangs after the HTC logo..
So i'm headed in the right direction. Any ideas ???? ~ T
SO I've made a HUGE step in progress yesterday, I installed JellyTime rom and inspire mod and gapps. and forced the boot.img file to boot using fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot boot.img it made the boot.img to run and start JellyTime. I've got android installed on the phone now. The only problem is I need to S-OFF so I can fastboot flash boot boot.img. It won't do it right now, As of now the phone will bootup and hang on the White HTC logo screen, Every attempt to S-OFF the phone has failed so far. Any Ideas ?
Your phone is bricked?
Try flashing this ROM

You don't need S-Off to fastboot flash boot.img. Just an unlocked bootloader.

This is not at all helpful. He is asking for boot.img or S-Off help. If he can't do that his ROM is irrelevant.
OMG. this is the worst place for help ever. I have Jelly time installed and I can get into it But only AFTER forcing the boot.img to boot. I CANNOT boot into jellytime by it's self normally. BECAUSE I cannot flash the boot.img file I get an error message. Because I need S-OFF to be off. right now it's on. Everything I've tried has failed.

Also, you haven't told us what error message you get when you try to flash the boot.img. And is your bootloader unlocked??

What does forcing the boot.img means? there is no other way to flash a boot.img that in fastboot if you are S-ON. There is no need to be S-OFF to fastboot flash. In fact, having S-OFF is not enough to enable flash commands in fastboot (you actually need ENG S-OFF for that).
I suggest that you give detail information about the errors and what you are doing if you want to get helped.
Hello,
I have htc inspire. My phone was new sept 2011 and worked until july 2012. My phone was set to charge only and usb debug disable and was never rooted. One night I put the phone to charge and the next day it I turned it on but it never made past the white screen. I have tried to put the rom on sd card as PD98IMG. I tried RUU. The phone lists:
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-0.85.0024 MICROP-0438
RADIO-26.10.04.03_M

When I try using RUU it gets stuck on reloading bootloader
When I try the PD98IMG method using a goldcard, it gets stuck:
parsing...[SD ZIP]
[1] BOOTLOADER -UPDATING
[2] BOOT
[3] RECOVERY
etc
Please help
Not sure but What helped me get past the HTC logo screen is just recovering the old Stock of the phone.
The link provided is to return back to old stock AT&T Roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385016
Boot your phone in Bootloader mode (PWR + VOL DOWN).
Run the RUU Installer.
For S-Off, Advanced Hack Kit (AAHK) was quite a big help to me.
My problem is I have s-on. Phone freezes when I try pd98img on sd goldcard. I can connect with fastboot but I am not sure how to use it. The phone was in charge only & usb debug off when it use to work.

Sensation stuck on JuopunutBear screen

Hi, at first i would say sorry for my english
So, i want install on my htc sensation custom rom, so i unlock bootloader on htcdev website, everything gone perfectly
Second step was installing CWM recovery and phone rooting, thats gone good too. Tutorial for CWM and root install i have take from this: theunlockr.com/2012/09/20/how-to-root-the-htc-sensation-on-hboot-version-1-27-0000
In next step i did wire-trick on ControlBear 0.5 beta, but phone don't want to reboot and make JuopunutBear logo, so i try to find 0.6 beta, but i can't found it. I found 0.7 beta, and on this wersion i did wire-trick, i miss a little bit with wire (wait too long) and program send me an error, i must click Enter for exit, and i clicked. From that moment my phone don't want to boot, all time i have JuopunutBear screen. I can go in bootloader, but my recovery don't want to start, so i install recovery and root again and try to restore backup from recovery, but system still don't want to boot.
At this moment i can go to bootloader and i have unlock bootloader with htcdev, recovery and probably root, i haven't s-off. My HBOOT version is 1.27.0000
Please help me, i don't know what i should do. Maybe i still can do wire-trick? I don't know :crying: I tried to find RUU, but two RUU don't want to open, and third send me info that they can't update soft and i should download correct program for update ROM memory.
Please help me!:crying:
Hi.
Run your phone's appropriate RUU, care for the region and the model as well, to be exact. For sensation XE, it has an extra LE in its name.

install 4ext recovery and then enable smartflash then restore the rom backup youve got ..(step #2 and step #3 ..from this guide)
if phone still not booted then do the extra #1 step from the same above guide ...but use the boot.img from the backup you've done (will be available at /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups)
Thanks @ganeshp !!! Phone is booting and android works Thanks a lot :* You're my hero
btw, i used method with flashing my boot.img, becouse restore from 4ext didn't work

Where did u go wrong? Are you s off now?
I'm not on s-off, , becouse controlbear (0.7 beta) send me an error and i must click enter for exit, after exit my sensation don't want to boot. Probably i have waiting too long for second wire "click" on sdcard, and program send error. Now i have unlock bootloader, 4ext recovery and root, i dont know which version of controlbear i need for wire-trick. If you have good version please send me a link to download
Send from my HTC Sensation
22
I got a link for 0.5beta, I'll pm you incase in case you want to try it (I haven't. Just got it yesterday, havent had a chance)
edit:used the one click tool to root, controlbear worked like a boss, took a few tries with a wire trick, phone rebooted once but no harm done
So if my phone don't want to boot system and stuck on JuopunutBear screen i can unplug my phone, plug in again and still try to do wire-trick, for that moment when phone will have s-off?

you can always try the wire trick multiple times ...even when the phone is stuck at juopunutbear screen.
however if you want ..you can revert back the phone to working condition too (except sdcard) ..controlbear has this functionality too
check troubleshoot point #4 from my soff guide for further details ( link in my signature )
This is the answer for 10 points
This is what i need. Thanks a lot. I will try to do wire-trick again in future (now i know what i need to do when phone is stuck on that screen )
Thanks a lot
Edit, If i have rooted phone, i haven't use temproot.bat ?

just remove the temp root with remove bat.file or whatever it is called
Ok, i have used this, but phone still is stuck on joupunut screen.
While i do wire-trick i haven't use temp-root, becouse i had unlock bootloader via htcdev, i had root and recovery - now i havent anything

first: if you are willing to flash a custom rom then there is no need to root your current one
all custom roms comes pre-rooted
second: there is no need to wipe your sdcard.where did you see that?
just make a nandroid backup from recovery just in case
then format all partitions except sdcard from recovery
flash the new rom
done
Ok, i have one backup (i made it about 2 weeks ago, when sensation worked normally), so i think i haven't make second. And my recovery is now in safe-mode, so when i wipe partitions it will be normal, right?
Tomorrow i will download Vipers 5.0.0 JB and install it Thanks a lot

If you changed hboot you should choose to format all partitions (except sdcard)
Afterwards please reboot recovery"

When i go in Power Menu and chose power off, i can see:

Yes or No, i can't power off device, i must take out battery.
