SO I've basically tried everything here,
it all went wrong when I stupidly forgot that I was in the wrong section and was trying to flash a international rom...
anyways now the phone only goes up to the HTC white screen and is stuck there.
BAsically i did the fastboot clearing and erything.
I also locked my bootloader and then tried to write the ruu again.
However while im doing that about after 4% , it gives me the error code 171, saying that my phone ahs been disconnected. I installed the HTC sync and everything what am i doing wrong....thanks
im using the ruu 1.85
you are lucky to have white screen

If you updated to 4.0.4 (2.20) before you killed your phone, then use the 2.20 RUU found on HTC's website. You can't be updated and use a downgraded RUU. If that doesn't work, and your bootloader is locked and everything, then idk what to say. Try taking it to ATT if you're stillin your 30 day period. If try even if you're not.

It means your lucky your phone still turns on. A brick means the phone won't turn on at all, or anything. You're lucky to be seeing the white HTC Screen. You really are.
EDIT: Download the HTC Drivers again, and reinstall them. That might help the connectivity issues. Or, try using a different USB port on your computer. When you plug the phone in, do you hear a resounding "beep", meaning the computer has recognized the device being plugged in?

I believe so, maybe not I'm currently doing work right now so I will check later.
However, the computer seems to recognize my phone when I'm applying the RUU, it stops at about 7% then shows the ERRor message 171
Thanks for the help.
can anyone please help
Where can I get stock recovery, stock boot for the phone?
First to Relock your device, you will want to boot into your bootloader and select fastboot. After you've selected fastboot plug your device into your pc and open a command prompt. You'll want to type 'cd C:\Android' and then 'fastboot oem lock' and your phone will restart with a locked bootloader. Now you can upgrade to the RUU without any issues.
Now find your ruu here http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1671237 under STOCK RUUs AND RELATED.
Once you've finished upgrading your ruu you will want to boot into your bootloader again, with your device unplugged, and select fastboot. THEN plug your device in and run your command prompt again on your PC. Again, cd to C:\Android and type in the following command to unlock your bootloader again: 'fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin'
Hope this helps ^____^
thanks for the reply, however ur link is broken.
And if possible can someone list all the programs I need for this task...
the Htc sync, android sdk,.. etc

I did the same. :silly: I've allways used CM recovery. couldn't get to flash. TWRP worked great!
If you have fastboot hopfully this works. May not get back to stock without RUU. However who cares.
Flashing custom ROMs is fun. :victory:

I don't think I can use that because my bootloader is locked.
Did you try SUPERCID? How did you do all that without SUPERUSER# ?
correct me if I'm wrong but you should still be able to unlock the bootloader if you have fastboot?

i relocked my bootloader to run the RUU, however when I run it the eroor code 170 comes up
I tried 3 diff. RUU's none of them worked. I'm on AT&T.
You should be able to Unlock bootloader again though.
HTC devs would have email you the unlock_code.bin file
Maybe you deleted from desktop? IT might still be in your email?
IF your windows you can hit (Shift+rightclick) in folder run CMD.
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin make sure your fastboot files are in there also.
THis thread might also help. I take no credit. But I hope we can help you get your phone up and running to some degree.

Alright I got it working. If anybody ever gets the same problem as me, disable your antivirus, take out your internet connection from the computer, run as administrator for the RUU, and close all programs except for the RUU.
I BELIEVE THE MOST IMPORTANT WAS TO OPEN A NEW ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT ON THE COMPUTER.
I don't know which of these factors are definite but follow these steps and hopefully you will solve your problem too.
Hi guys, yesterday i tried to root my desire hd and flash a rom called icecoldsandwich 8.5, i started my phone and it got stuck at the bootlogo from ics. Then i think i deleted it from my sd card and now i can't do anything with my phone. i can enter the boot menu but nothing more.. if i select recovery, i get a red exclamation mark. I hope it can be fixed
thanx
Moved to General Q&A.
just download a ruu that is only for your device but be careful ( branded ones and unbranded)
then just put it in fastboot via bootloader and flash it and it will boot up

If you read what they posted, they cannot get to the boot menu. I have a RUU program designed to run remotely from my computer over USB that works wonders if I ever have a problem. I could find the stock .img for your phone and send you the program where you would just plug your phone in over USB, run the program, locate your RUU file (which would be included) and your done. Should be back to normal, worked for me when I accidentally bootlooped. PM me for more info. This will require you to re-root your phone.

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?

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!

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
Click to expand...

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/.

Okay so if you are like me and have installed the OTA Update or ran the 3.18 ruu with an S-On Device chances are You are currently hard bricked which in most cases leaves 4 options, Option 1. Try to get a replacement through the carrier or Manufacturer Option 2. Send it off for a repair or Option 3 try and fix it yourself. Option 4 Toss the device and look elsewhere.
I Personally am going with Option 3 and am attempting to figure out a working Unbrick Method that does not require a RIFF box so with that said i will be working in this thread in an effort to get an unbrick project working. Feel free to add your knowledge, input, and advice in the proceeding posts below.
Please Note if you are using Windows 8 you will need to disable driver signature enforcement, while there are many ways to do this by far the easiest way is to open an Elevated Command Prompt and enter
Code:
bcdedit /set {globalsettings} advancedoptions true
when you restart your Computer choose option 7. To Disable Advanced Boot Options Enter
Code:
bcdedit /set {globalsettings} advancedoptions false
I suggest that you try reading here. I hard bricked my device before while trying to downgrade my HBOOT version from 1.14 to 1.09.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2156231
To sum it up, he could still access his bootloader, but couldn't flash anything. By accessing rebootRUU, he managed to place his phone into a brick mode which allowed Linux to recognize and write to the boot partition. To enter that sort of brick mode, he flashed an UNSIGNED HBOOT file, which would have been fine since he was S-ON. BUT, once he sent in the command for S-ON, the device saw the UNSIGNED HBOOT and rebricked. He was then able to re-write the P4 file, which contains all your device information (IMEI, CID etc.). Then flash in the recovery, access the recovery, and flash your ROM.
I don't know how different that hard brick is from yours, but it worked for me. Can you access your bootloader btw?

I'm not sure it will really help. The first part is to run brickdetect.sh. That script appears to try to enumerate the partitions. I tried to enumerate my partitions using the manual steps in mirgantrophy's unbrick evita thread to no success before I sent my device off for JTAG. You could always try to run the brickdetect.sh script and see though. It doesn't do anything to your phone. It just searches dmesg (a Linux log) for the partitions being detected when you attach the bricked phone via USB. Don't run the rest of it though. ;-P
I'd like see a method to fix emmc of an htc inspire 4g(htc ace). Can any of our methods be transposed for other htc devices?

You can either get a jtag repair or send it to HTC to have the motherboard replaced. Jtag is the cheaper option. When you get it back, make sure you stay within our forum and only flash software intended for our device.

Hi guys,
I have an HTC Explorer and I unlocked and rooted it few days back, later I got a strange problem that everytime I receive or make an outgoing call, my phone goes on loudspeaker automatically and anything I do, I can't make it stop. I factory reset it several times, reflashed stock ROM but nothing. Finally I decided to take it back to service center but since it's rooted, I tried to unroot it first and then relock the bootloader. I flashed back the stock recovery and then locked the bootloader but got some warnings while locking it.
Now it shows bootloader relocked but with some warnings in red color. I can't start my phone now as it goes in bootloader mode always, unlocking it again makes it work again so I am sure I am not doing something right.
Can you suggest me what I should do to make it lock properly and also if some suggestions related to loudspeaker problem, I will be really thankful.
Thanks.

Flashing an RUU is the only definitive way of *relocking* your device. And, as of why it shows *relocked* and not *locked*, I quote Rohan Pruthi (dunno if he's on XDA).

Reboot to bootloader and connect your phone to PC, and type
Code:
fastboot getvar all
and paste the output here... It will be easier for me to tell which RUU you'd need then...
Else, you can search for one yourself... Only thing that the Radio version and hboot should match...
