HELPPPPPP i got to the stage where it says press power button once to enter HBoot then press enter on your keyboard. It did that and then i pressed enter twice on the keyboard. then what was supposed to come up was the part where it is supposed to say your phone should now search for the PD98IMG.zip. but it never did. then the computer said that it could not recognize the android driver. now the command prompt box is stuck at *daemon started successfully* and is not doing anything and has not for the past 10 min. should i turn off the phone and start all over?

Got it! Now i have to figure out which custom rom to install.Any suggestions??Guess it wasn't that hard after all. Thank god i have a son that knows how to do it!!

You still have a PD98IMG.zip file on your SD card. As long as this is there, bootloader will always try to automatically update with this file through HBoot. You need to remove this file from the SD card and you'll be able to boot to recovery

[Q] Please Help! Inspire will not turn on, stuck on HTC screen

Can someone please help! My HTC Inspire 4g wont go past the HTC screen, and I would be able to fix it but my down volume button does not work anymore and so now i cant get into recovery. Someone please help i need the phone to work and i dont know how to
EDIT: Need this fixed now if you help and want a reward for helping than i will reward you most likely in $$$

Remove your SD Card and reboot in to bootloader (Vol Down + Power) From there choose recovery and reflash ROM.

It seems that the phone was not running the stock rom and doing a factory reset erases all the data. Can you boot in hboot (power + volume down)? Then if are able paste the first two line at the top left of that screen (white with 3 androids at the bottom)

Are you s off or s on. Also are you able to select fastboot and enter fastboot screen or does it just fade to black from that option too. Have you tried selecting recovery option as well?

you can connect your HTC phone to your computer via USB cable, and use the command below, before that you need to install adb shell on Windows.
adb reboot bootloader

Also, you could enter Recovery mode through ROM Toolbox and if you're using TWRP, its touch, so you dont need hardware keys.

So you're stuck on booting and your hardware buttons dont work?
There is a way to get into the recovery in such a situation but that usually relies on the hardware buttons. What device do you have? What recovery?

Try this
Remove battery n reinsert it
Now connect the phone to charger.
Don't do anything keep the phone as it is for 5 -10 min.
It will automatically go to recovery

Hey cool. I used to own an Inspire for couple of years.
Im not sure if understood the condition of your phone and whats working or not but:
take out your battery and reinsert. hold the power button and volume down button for a couple of seconds and it will boot into recovery

Im assuming you have android sdk installed
Connect your phone, locate adb using cmd prompt (change directory) (RUN AS ADMIN), type 'adb reboot recovery' (no quotes)

I will try this in the morning. What screen do I use the command at? Anytime?

Follow these fool-proof steps:
Locate your android sdk folders-> navigate to the folder where adb is located ->hold shift + right click on the folder containing adb and select ''open command window here'' ( this will automatically take care of pointing the directory to that location) -> 'adb reboot recovery' ENTER
This will automatically enter recovery. I suggest you restore your old backup .
As for your volume buttons, you should be able to fix it easily if you know a little bit of soldering and know-how.

ADB *may* work on the boot logo, but it certainly won't work as the phone is booting.

Like MacHackz said. As far as i know also this may be the only way you maybe able to boot into recovery so might as well give it a shot.
MacHackz, your banner made me think i have a bug behind my screen and I spent a while trying figure it out. LOL

HTC Desire HD hard reset without volume buttons
I have htc desire hd and my volume buttons is broken ,my phone is much dispute and have lots of bugs i want to HARD RESET no factory reset only hard reset with rebote. Please help me how to reset my HTC DHD without volume buttons!!
!!sorry for my english!!

SOLVED! (At least for me)
To whom may still be interested, I found a way to get into recovery and subsequently wipe data/factory reset the HTC Inspire 4G/Desire HD without using the volume buttons.
Phone background: the phone that I used had the internal volume buttons broken. It was rooted and unlocked using the effen hack kit, then I flashed a custom ROM on it and I forgot to do a factory reset before I firstly boot up the phone with the new ROM. So it was stuck on the boot animation forever.
Steps for getting into recovery mode without volume buttons:
1. Take the battery off
2. Plug the phone to a wall charger for at least one or two minutes.
3. Put the battery back on along with the battery door and don't touch any buttons.
- The orange led on the front will light up and stay on for a few seconds before the phone automattically gets into recovery
Note: use the touch capacitive buttons to manipulate recovery:
- Home/Menu buttons to navigate up/down
- Back button to go back
- Search button to select
That's pretty much it. At this point you can do anything!
I hope this can help someone out there... If it helped you please hit the thanks button!

You can use adb commands to enter in recovery mode. Connect your android to PC. Enable adb debugging and open command prompt in PC.
Type "adb devices" without qoutes and enter then type "adb reboot recovery" and enter. These commands boot your android in recovery mode.
