Some one briked the phone - HTC Desire S

Hello! On my work whe have a lots of Desire S phones. One of my colegues manage to unlock one. The phone was working fine. The phone was passed to another colegue (the first went to retirement) and whe he tried to update something (wireless and with less than 25% of batery) the phone got stuck... I been doing everything that I saw here on XDA... So what can I do? Thank´s...

Phone got stuck, as in stuck at htc logo?
Have u tried to enter into recovery/fastboot?
If able to enter into fastboot, give us the details u see there, or a screenshot would be good as well if you are unsure what detail is to give.
What was your friend updating? firmware? if you are on a custom rom and tried to update the official firmware then it is a no no no no bad boy no u shouldnt have done that.

So on the phone :
Saga PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOO-6.98.200 (PG8810000)
RADIO-3831.19.00.110
eMMC-boot
Feb 24 2001, 21:19:05
Press the on button, apears the htc logo and desapers... And nothing happens...
So what can i do now?

No one??? Come on guys...

Press the on and volume down button. What happens?

Try a full wipe and see if it helps.
If it doesnt help i would suggest u to flash a new rom. either way u will loss ur datas.
* make a nandroid backup before proceeding.

But I cant acess to the SD card. In fact I cant acess to the recovery mode! Do there and the only thing that shows is the red triangle... I all ready did a golden card but nothing....

Not sure if it's you posting or some one with the same issue, but check this out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920636
read the 2nd post and try it out. if it is indeed a fried emmc chip there are a few way(not sure 1 or 2 out there) to salvage ur phone, or u could just replace the chip, there is a post some where in general section.

I think I guessed the problem.
Someone wanted to update ENG S-Off Desire S (with old ENG bootloader) to official ICS RUU. The update "completed successfully", but since the bootloader didn't let the update overwrite itself - the official update can't work, because it expects /system/lib partition that doesn't exist on old ENG bootloader.
The solution is to flash new ENG bootloader (7.xxxx), found in Development section, and then run official RUU again. It'll work and the phone will work again too.
By the way, the solution can be easily found if searching - I already remember such a thread. "Red triangle" is a stock recovery, search could have easily told you that. And goldcard is useless by itself, it's needed for flashing RUU.
And if the above doesn't work, because RUU gets stuck updating - address the "fried eMMC" post.

You cant go wrong with seniors like Jack_R1 watching over desire s forum. :fly away:

I am stuck for 2 days Need help PLZ

Hi guys
I have really strange problem, could you please help me out.
I am was using insert coin rom 4.4.1 and every thing was good so far,
Then i have realized that i have s- off and rooted my phone but i didn't super cid it
So i want to do that, i have supercid it by following the steps listed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300.
After i reboot the phone, it stayed in the flash screen (HTC screen)
I have reinstalled the rom and even other roms, but nothing was done.
I have tried to reflash it using firmwire 3.24 but samething.
FYI: i have already supercid it i have checked it by adb and it is 11111111
There is small problem, i didn't remember my proper cid, all i know it is a europe version of sensation.
i have this written in recovery session:
REVOLUTIONARY
pyramid PUT ship s off RL
boot 1.27.1110
Radio 11.21.3504.13.2
Open ADSP V02-6-0.2226.00.0104
EMMC-boot

Please help me i am lost here, DONT TELL ME THAT I HAVE DAMAGED THE PHONE!!
Thanks
Not sure if this will help
Hey I am not sure about your problem not heard of this. Maybe you need to super cid before flashing new firmware. Maybe if you can remember what your cid was before, you can change back and see if it makes any difference. maybe once returned to the stock cid you can revert firmware and then super cid. I am not sure though! I am just taking a stab at it since no one else has answered. here is a link with some firmware and it also tells stock cid's for different carriers/countries. Also maybe try flashing different firmware.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1459767
maybe that will refresh your memory to what yours was.
Good Luck
P.S. I think that since you still have access to recovery you will be able to resolve the issue (not hard bricked yet), just need to figure out what the problem is exactly.
Given that you still have access to your SDcard, trying flashing a new rom and firmware (go for Virtuous Inquisition).

I have already tried other roms:
Android rev-hd 3-16-13: negative result
RCMix_ICS_v311_STbase: negative result
The problem is all roms stuck in the splash screen, i have looked in some threads that some people have 30 min for the first boot, for me i kept it for 1 hour or more but it seems that it is stuck, i have checked the temp it isn't hot so may be when i have supercid it , did i make something wrong to supercid it after installing the rom??

If you wanna use ARHD 3.6.13 you need to downgrade your firmware to 3.12 or 1.17 it won't run on 3.24
I would downgrade your firmware, go to a GB rom, get it so your phone boots, then go through the process of going back to ICS.

Last time when I had major issue with my phone, I flashed couple different firmwares and different ICS and GB ROM. And somehow it worked for me. I'm just saying there's always hope. Dont give up! And good luck!
flash the latest official eu RUU, if nothing works.
You can always s-off/root then afterwards.

Nothing, most do not use fastboot commands, so don't worry about it. You are still s-off and able to flash any rom you desire.

I have downgraded my firmwire to 3.12 and i have used hd 3.16.13 GB rom.
The bad news is that nothing done yet, stucking in HTC splash screen.
But there is something i want to add, may be is the clue to this problem .
I have realized that when i remove my SD card from the phone and i want to read it in my PC, it appears protected each time and this is strange (virus effect).
may be my SD card was damaged and it is the only problem of stucking???
What do you think guys??

Perhaps you accidentally set some sort of sharing protection on the SD card, which doesn't let the phone access the adequate files? If so, try reformatting your card on fat32. And then copy back the firmware/rom and attempt flashing again.
i have already formatted the SD card, coping Rom and firmwire PG58IMG reflash the rom .
Still stuck in HTC S screen.
What about RUU?
Any suggestion ?

If your bootloader says LOCKED like you previously indicated then you can not use fastboot commands as kpjimmy already said. Because you never supercid your phone you probably have some partial firmware update.
If I were you I would flash an older RUU to get to a known stable config and then start over.
No i have changed the firmwire and it is written revolutionary in purple.

You have to remove the firmware from the card after flashing it. But to bypass it, does your phone boot once you flash the rom and then remove the sd card?
kpjimmy
when i updated the firmware hboot then the phone wrote push the power button to reboot, the problem is the phone will try to run the rom already installed in the phone, so i am forced to remove the battery and then remove the firmware from my PC.
in order to install the new rom.

[Q] Can some one please anwsered my question freakin out lol

ok i just got finished rooting my sensation 4g and everything geting it s-off and i was on my way to flashing a firmware but i think i may of messed up ive searched everwhere when i start my phone it dous HTC then dous the HTC and the little words underneith it then it restarts is my phone messed or is this something stupidly simple please help freaking out and oh btw i was flashing the firm where from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468683 i think the problem is i tryed to flash it in clock work mod recovery dunno if i was supose to do it there or not i tryed the how to fix radio bootloop but it didnt do anything should i try to flash to stock rom? im a noob but quick learner can some one help plz
Not to sound harsh but if you didn't read up on fixing issues should they occur then you should not have even attempted to flash anything.
It's starting to get really annoying having to constantly bail out n00bs who haven't a clue what they're doing. ALL the information is available to you so you have no excuses not to know what to do
i no im a big noob and a complete idiot ive flashed other phones but im new to the sensation any help would be appreciated
come on some one please i love this phone i just want a little help.... if its bricked tell me please some one help......
Dude, as the other guy said the information is out there and not even hard to find. But I'm in a good mood ....
Firstly, you don't flash firmware in recovery, you boot into bootloader. Secondly, once flashed you MUST delete it from your SD card. Otherwise your phone is going to go into a big fat boot loop. Thirdly, if you are flashing custom ROMs, make sure you read the first few posts of the dev's thread and understand what firmware you need to be running. Otherwise your phone is going to go into a big fat boot loop.
Do yourself a huge favour and make sure you read, read, read before you try anything else on your phone
Also, when creating a thread to ask a question, please give it a meaningful title. I thoroughly detest "Pleeeeeease help me LOL" thread titles and don't normally even view them.

Remember firmware can not be flashed using recovery.
You have to put it on the root of your sdcard and boot into bootloader.
Read this thread . Read very carefully before doing anything.

Ok to be very specific, answer me the following questions with very clear words.
A. Can you boot into bootloader??
To boot into bootloader do the following.
1. Power off your sensation.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Wait a minute.
4. Put the battery again.
5. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
6. The phone will boot into bootloader.
B. If you can boot into bootloader, then give us the full details of the screen message. If possible upload a photo of your bootloader screen.
C. What ROM did you tried to flash ???? Is it GB or ICS ??
D. What do you mean by "but it cant find the phone cause its stuck in the loop" . Even if you are in bootloop adb will be able to detect you phone .
yes i can get into bootloader and it says this

So you have actually flashed the firmware then. Have you then removed the firmware from your SD card? You MUST remove the firmware file from the SD card. Take the SD card out of the phone and use a card reader or another phone to do this. If you don't have anything else, there is a trick I've used.
Connect up the phone and open a command prompt. Type:
Code:
adb reboot recovery
If you get 'error: no device found' just hit the up arrow and enter. Keep doing this until you get no response on the command line. Then the phone will boot into recovery and you can 'toggle USB storage' from there and delete PG58IMG.zip using your computer.
yes i have deleted it then i restarted the phone and it still continuously loops the same thing over and over agian

Everything looks fine. Can you try someother ROM? Some users reported that firmware v3.24 didn't work but v3.12 worked fine. So I will suggest to try some other rom. If the problem persist then try v3.12 firmware.

YOUR PHONE IS NOT BRICKED. The term bricked means that your phone is a useful as a brick, i.e. if you can get into HBOOT, it's not bricked.
Gotta ask though, why did you not use the Hack Kit as its the only reliable method to root, my advice to you sir is when this gets cleared up READ AND EDUCATE YOURSELF before you really do brick your phone.
If you have a SDcard reader, pop out the SDcard and place one of the PD98IMG stock ROMs on your SDcard. From here you can reboot into HBOOT with the sdcard in your phone and HBOOT should pick up the PD98IMG and flash a working stock ROM. From here, you can root with the Hack Kit...
This will help you, read it and do what the stock ROM option...if you can get into HBOOT
I have tried doing that, it says loading image, then parsing, then goes back to the hboot screen, it doesn't say press volume up to update or anything else as I have read in many other posts. Am I doing something wrong? As far as not using the hack kit, I didn't really stumble on that until after it was to late, sure wish I had found it in the first place. Guess if I could just get it back to factory, I would accept that doing this isn't for me and not mess with it again. I am good at following directions, but nothing I have tried seems to work.

is the file named exactly "PD98IMG.zip"..you may also want to check the hide extension option to be sure its not hiding the .zip because if it is and you renamed it to "PD98IMG.zip" with the hide extension on, the phone will read it as "PD98IMG.zip.zip" and you would get that error.
haha and yeah man, we've all been there...I don't want to discourage you man, rooting is such an awesome experience and the hack kit is a pretty straight forward process, if you do the research and take the time to understand what you're doing, but lets see if we can help you out here first. I had the same issue you're having when I tried to flash a radio (same PD98IMG method you're trying to use) and it turned out to be the hide extension issue.
I had also verified that as well, I went under tools, folder options, view tab, scrolled down to hide extensions for known file types and unchecked... And, everything was correct, just verified to be on the safe side.

hmm, so its named PD98IMG.zip caps and everything? If its not working you m ay have to get a stock RUU and run it through fastboot..
This is why you should educate yourself first. You do not need to unlock the bootloader from the HTC dev site. Now you could flash the the stock ruu from the PC and then use the hack kit. Check the stickies in the Inspire general section for more help.

I understand that I should have been a little more educated first now, but I thought I had everything in order, thats what thinking gets me... I have tried running the stock ruu, but it gives the following error.

Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again.
I did notice the Image version the program shows is on the phone is 3.13.0.0, and it is trying to put 2.47.502.7 on the phone... Is this the problem? If so, whats the solution, I am so lost now its not even funny.... I apologize everyone.

Dalton, lock your bootloader again. Boot into fastboot and plug the phone. You will see fastboot usb at the top. Then plug your phone and open cmd session. Once there type fastboot oem relock. Once that is done, try flashing the .exe file in the HTC site (original GB update), making sure that you have HTC Sync installed.
If that fails, then I would try using the HACK Kit to gain S-OFF and root. You will then be able to revert to stock or flash a custom rom...
Had a similar problem when using aahk my own fault and I took care of it. Long winded, so short of it, are you trying to install through
1. hboot or 2. on the computer using HTC rom update?
I ended up trying 2. But ended up using aahk to finish.
HTC update errored out and the recovery portion would not work, just in a boot loop on HTC logo
This was good news as aahk could take over on USB during that HTC green letters white background.
I'd suggest reading the effen manual run the tool to get it up and going, figure out what you want to do. I've used it to return to stock with s off before go back into roms.
So look at those options know what you want and then power on the phone USB connected and during HTC screen enter your number the kit should take over and give you what you asked it.
That should give you a working rom image.

Glad you have it back....yeah you'd better read and make sure what are about to do it and of course what risks are involved before making a move....
Dalton,
I would suggest following glevitan's and willm's assertion of getting s-off and root to use custom roms. Custom roms are WAY better than anything HTC has to offer, and much easier to install, if you have an issue warranty wise, you can always return to stock. Just make sure you know how to flash correctly, search for it and you will find easy instructions, and if memory serves, a youtube video which helped me greatly.

If you are using AT&T branded cell then go to the htc.com site and in the support section of the inspire you will find it. Otherwise, you will find stock roms in the general section of this forum

DId you use SuperCID? you should just try different ruu until one of them works. Did you try to get into recovery aka holding down the vol button when you power on?

i dont know what is SuperCID so i guess i didn't use it.
recovery is the only thing that i can get into right now.
i tried factory reset. didn't work.
im quite new to android so i dont know too many things.
thx for reading and replying.

Well if you didnt that means you can only use an ruu for the image you currently have or any ruu after after that. im not to familiar with rogers ruu version numbers but like i said equal or great. I would go into recovery and and go into fastboot and try the ruu then. that should do the trick and you still need to be relocked but you said you did that already so good luck!

yeah it seems like you did take all steps. with changing your CID im not really sure what to do. illl be back if i find anything but right now im stuck. sorry man.
drklazarus26 said:
Yeah I was just looking around and I noticed there but only one ruu. this is a link to the ruu ROGER RUU. its an exe so basically hold the vol down button while you turn the power on. you should have a screen that says "fastboot", recovery and so on. select fastboot and connect to your computer. when it finishes installing the drivers and the phone says fastboot usb in red then run the ruu.
actually its not an exe. sorry i need to look it up myself

yeah, that is not an exe file. it's a zip file that should replace the rom.zip when u do the ruu (according to the posts online).
that's what i did. the thing is that when i did the ruu thing, my phone version is greater then the one u can find online. so it's not working this way. or maybe im not doing it right.
this phone is killing me right now.
thank u.
no one seems to have a good solution to this???
i just solved it.
it's quiet simple actually.
for ppl who may have the same problem as i did , this is what u need to do :
flash recovery, then go in to recovery mode, wipe everything, except the external storage, then install a new rom
simple...
yea , first of all , unlock ur device.
thx/.
Should change the title of post from [Q] to [solved] so that people know your all set and others that may find the info useful.

[Q] Black Screen / Red triangle after RUU ICS Update

I tried to update my HTC Desire S with ICS update downloaded from HTC and although it appeared to install fine the phone won't boot. It just sits on a black screen, and if I try to enter recovery it shown the red triangle with the exclamation mark! I've tried Factory Reset but that does not work.
I have read that I should NOT have install an official ROM through the RUU while being on S-OFF and that I should have used PG88IMG.zip instead
There was nothing I need on the phone so I did not make a backup and I’m not sure how to access the SD card while in volume down and power mode.
What can I do to fix this issue?
If i press volume down and power:

Your hboot version is not ringing any bells?
Hint: you do not have a custom recovery anymore

Don't worry, you didn't brick your phone yet. But your HBOOT (v6.98.1002) doesn't support the /system/lib partition necessary for the ICS RUU. That's why the installation didn't succeed and why your phone can't boot. You should be able to flash a custom recovery again and from this recovery a custom ROM. You also upgraded your radio when you tried to flash the RUU.

How do I do this? please explain in a simple step-by-step guide as I don’t want to do any more damage.
can anyone help with this issue?
The silence is a small hint for you. It's called "Google it".
People are tired of answering the same questions 3 times a day.
Look at the General section, there's another one like you.

Thanks for nothing Jack
I manage to fixed it by following this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1679338
I used a second sd card, I formatted it first and only put the file I need at that time on it. I
In step 5 Reboot into bootloade, select recovery wait till you see the screen with the red triangle exclamation mark and press the volume up and power button at the same time.
You will enter the Android system recovery <3e> and see the following options:
reboot system now
apply update from SD card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
wipe the cache partition and wipe data/factory reset
Now following step B from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1858508
When update is finished - reboot, then configure ICS and delete PG88IMG.zip from sd card.
Congratulations - you actually did what Jack suggested and SEARCHED. We do not exist here as free tech-support for people who are too lazy to bother searching or reading - especially when the same damn question is asked time after time after time.
On another note - insulting very knowledgeable and respected members of the forum is a very, very stupid thing to do. Firstly because it will get his back, and many other peoples' backs, right up. Secondly, because if he was so minded then you could easily find the next response you get to a question is either total silence or advice that would end up bricking your phone totally.
When you rely on people, do not pi$$ them off - that is one of the first things you learn as a soldier and is is equally applicable in everyday life.
