Hi guys,
Got a serious problem with my HTC ON SV. It is stuck in a boot loop where I cannot go into recovery or do a factory reset.
I have never modded this phone from new so it is LOCKED and has no custom recovery install.
I cannot install customer recovery as it is still locked, can't unlock due to boot loop.
I have downloaded RUU_K2_UL_ICS_40_HTC_Europe_1.17.401.5_R_Radio_0.12.40.00.14_2_10.49.40.11L_release_301902_signed.exe and tried to run that but it always says phone is under 30% battery when it isn't. I've copied the rom.zip while this installation is running and renamed to PL80IMG.ZIP, copied to root of SD and booted to bootloader where it scanns the file and seems to bomb out when it gets to parsing...
I have tried to follow many guides but most assume that you have either rooted or unlocked the phone, i have neither.
Someone please help point me in the right direction...
Nothing can be done for you then. You are better to just send it in for repair and/or possibly replacing it if they cannot fix it.

You are locked and S-On. So, you are currently helpless at the moment. You will need to rely on HTC for support.

Thanks for that. I'm stuck then as I've already had to open the phone up to replace the screen so its not going to be touched under warrenty :crying::crying:
So you did a screen replacement?
Did your phone ever boot fine after replacement or did the problem appear straight after?
It was fine after changing screen, been fine for a good month of 2.
It's my son's, he said it came up saying the SIM wasn't recognised so he pulled the battery out and reinserted the SIM and when he went to turn it back on that's when he got the boot loader loop. It looks like it's trying to load, sticks on the htc splash screen for about a minute and then goes to the bootloader.

I believe my question should have went here instead of a previous post. But i was in a rush to work and it happened at the last minute. So again here is wat happened.
Im currently running coredroid 8.1. It was working fine. Then I flashed Unity V9 kernel update. That caused the phone to get stuck at the logo screen. I have been at work and just now getting home.
My question at this point is how to get to recovery or where i can flash Coredroid 8.1 again. I do know about the volume + power to get me to recovery. But once im at the screen i cant move up or down or hit power for the phone to go into recovery state. I had this problem once b4 wit getting into recovery but i cant remember what I had to do to get it work where i could use recovery again.
If i have too reformat a sd card or anything so i can get my phone up and running thats fine too. Im hoping I can recieve help with that. The only thing i would need to know if i could some how pull TB from the old sd card so i can put everything back that i lost.
But i figured everything is on the SD Card anyways so i should be able to get almost anything.

OK, if you take the pd98img file off the root of your sd card, you will be able to use recovery again.
The img file is why you can't move around, after you remove or rename it, reboot using the power + volume down, give it a second to run, you will see some writing and you will be able to select recovery.

i did get the pd98img file i was talking about. Once started to run the file. It automatically gave me the chance to be able to move the volume up and down button and power. So i was able to go into recovery. Which is wat i needed to do so i could reflash the whole thing. Thats what i was kinda of looking to do instead of starting completly over.
But thx for your help.
So have you fixed the problem? Are you still stuck at clockwork mod?

My phone was unrooted one.
One fine day i think it got heated up too much and went into a reboot loop.
After that when i turn on the phone It gets stuck at HTC logo and vibrates for like 7-8 times and stays that way.I think dats what is called being bricked.
i did go through the post already posted here.But i have downloaded the gold card tool ( exe file)
But i dont know how to generate the PB99IMG.zip file.
Basically which RUU to use to generate the PB99IMG.zip and where would i get it.How to run it.
PLease if possible also guide me step by step.
I ensure i have read all the post here but I am making a new one just because i havent been able to solve my problem.
Would be really thankful if anyone helps.
I am a newbie so i think i am facing a lot of problems.
PLease help me out asap.

Hey checked out the post tried installin ADB and FASTBOOT
But it is written it works only for devices having S-OFF.
Unfortunately mine is S-ON.
Please help put guys...
Dont have another phone....
Very old thread but it might help someone else. 7 vibrates usually means motherboard failure. This is unrecoverable and can only be fixed by a motherboard replacement
Hey guys. I'm in a tough spot so any help will be appreciated. So here it goes.
I'm rooted and was running LeeDroid v. 5.1.1. Everything had been fine, my phone was acting completely normal for the past months. and even that day (this past friday)
After I got off the phone a couple days ago, I wanted to charge it a little bit. I tried to plug it in to multiple outlets and chargers, and it wouldn't charge. I decided to restart my phone just to see if that would help. Well then it got stuck in a boot loop. When trying to get into recovery from the bootloader, it just went back to the HTC splash screen and continued to boot-loop. I really have no idea what went wrong.
Is there anyway I can get into recovery again? I want to at least try to re install a ROM but that seems inpossible right now. Also, would loading an RUU via pd98img method work? I have no idea. I would minimally like to unroot so I can send it in for warranty. I guess if all else fails I could try my insurance, but that's a 125 dollar deductible =\
Any sort of help is appreciated. Thanks guys.

Sounds like a hardware problem. Maybe volume rocker is messed. If you can't boot into hboot, then there's not much that you can do...
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA
Actually I can get into hboot. But the problem is I can't get into recovery at all. I can select it from the menu, but it goes back to the HTC splash screen and does a boot loop. I tried installing a recovery via the pd98img method and still does the same thing.

You don't have to install a recovery from a PD98IMG.zip file. You have to do it from command prompt in cmd...

Hi GUys,
flashed my note using the CWM method successfully (well..) and after it randomly reboots at different stages, sometime at samsung logo, somtimes ater its fully loaded and running, sometimes on the galaxy note load up screen.
\ive tried wiping, reset, caches, re-rooting
also tried downloading stock and installing with odin, it removes root and same thing.
tried kies, but it says no updates available, on current firmware
it never reboots when in download mode, but dos sometimes when in recovery modes if that helps?
someone please help!!
Maybe its a hardware issue... if you've tweaked around with the software and symptoms don't seem to change, then you might wanna think about sending it in for repair or replacement.

yeh i was thinking that, just hoping it wouldnt be the case
just flashing a custom rom now to see if maybe the stock i installed was corrupt
anywhere i can get previous stock roms from?
ok finally flashed stock 4.0.4 with odin and it seems stable.
Although one problem now -
There is no lockscreen and no boot options while pressing and holding the power button with addition to this while holding power button it directly switches off it slef without any prompt.
i found a thread for a 7000 with a fix but im not rooted and a bit scared to do it again so the command doesnt work in teminal

Any help please guys?
Seems like your device is in factory mode.
That often happens when your EFS partition screwd up.
Check your Imei number.

returned it for another one - turned out the power btto was faulty, hence the rebooting.

I was going to start a New Topic but a search brought me to this post.....
Okay, I have an N8010 Wifi only model.
Where exactly does it list the IMEI number of the N8010?
Next, as the Wifi only N8010 does not have a Phone App how do you insert the *# Codes as in *#272 IMEI NUMBER*
Any post talking about an IMEI for the wifi only version is wrong... IMEI's are only for devices that have a phone modem, essentially 3G model only...

GT-N8010 stuck in bootloop, can't flash
Hey guys,
Today I was playing world at arms, and all of a sudden my tablet shut down and restarted.
Since then it is in a reboot loop, and doesn't respond to anything.
I run the latest official 4.4.2, which I rooted using the CF-Root method. It worked just fine for over a week, until this morning.
I tried to reflash the stock firware (from sammobile) without any luck. I tried to reflash the CF-Root without any luck.
It fails every time. I tried several versions of Odin (1.85, 3.07, and 3.09), but all of them failed.
I tried to reboot in recovery, but it doesn't work, the android robot appears, but then it restarts in the bootloop.
It goes up to the Samsung logo, before crasking again.
Sometimes I hear the music of World at arms playing before it crashes.
It seems real stuck, and I cannot think of anything else to do...
At the moment, I leave it in the loop until the battery dies off... And then I'll try charging it a bit and restart...
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
J

I got water on my phone, it leaked out of a bottle while i was listening to pandora and got my phone wet, Screen stayed black when i pressed a button, I immediately took the battery out, I even put it in a bowl of rice. Now today, I put my battery in, and it tries to boot but only shows the my touch 4g slide screen, I can get into my bootloader and go to fastboot, I have tried reflashing my kernel, from the bootloader I can only access Fastboot everything else will leave me stuck at the Mytouch4G slide screen. Maybe i need to install a rom via adb but I only know how to do it from the clockwork recovery screen.
any help would be appriciated. Thanks.

Yes, Im S-On, sry forgot to mention that in my post.
Anyone know how to install a rom via pc from bootloader? Think that may work but i dont know how. Must be able to do with s on.
Sent from my LG-P769 using xda premium
with s-on your phone runs security checks if your try to flash through bootloader, so unless you have a signed rom by htc it wont work. you can however flash an ruu through fastboot still, this will essentially bring you back to stock, unfortunately being you are s-on and do not have super cid then it will check to see what version you are running, this means that you will get an error say version older or something.
but htc is to release a new update at some point soon (fcc lawsuit deal) and if released as an ruu (as opposed to ota) you can flash this.
there are ways to flash nandroid backups via fastboot as well but they would need to be in yaffs2 as i dont believe fastboot supports tar balls or really any other format. but being you dont have an engineering bootloader that wouldnt matter as you are limited to what fastboot commands you can flash anyway.
i hate to say it but i think your screwed... thats not to say stop trying as you may get a fix somehow, just saying i would consider looking for a new phone while your trying to fix it
Thx. I actually have a new phone got it after the rice trick cause i thought it may be a bit before i get it to work...
Though i did just soak my phone in a bowl of purified water let it sit in rice again for 6 hourse. And then put it in a towel for 1-2 n tried to boot n it worked. Gonna let it dry more and then charge it all the way.n see if it will continue to work
Sent from my LG-P769 using xda premium
I've had the same exact thing happen to me. Phone was soaked. Same exact symptoms. Ended up buying another phone. Few days later an idea struck me, and I took the new phone battery and put it in the wet (now dried up) one. Worked!!!
Flashing a stock PG59IMG.zip to the phone will probably work for you. Doing that reflashes EVERYTHING, the way HTC wants it to be. You simply put it onto your microSD card, boot into bootloader, it will ask you if you want to update, & it will take over from there. Make sure the battery is charged though.
---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------
Oh, another thing. I've repaired many water damaged devices, mostly HTC, & there's one thing I remember regarding the myTouch 4G & 4G Slide. When you turn the phone on, try holding down all 4 of the bottom buttons, & the optical trackpad button as well. Do not let go of them. If the system successfully loads up from you holding all of the buttons down, then that means that the ribbon cable for the buttons, & possibly the trackpad as well, got damaged, & that's what's causing the system to hang. If that's the case, replace the ribbon cable for the buttons, & replace the optical trackpad button as well. That will solve the problem. Hope this helps.

Thanks, If I flash this, will it still be unlocked or will I have to unlock my bootloader again?
If you can flash a stock PG59IMG.zip on your phone, it will automatically reflash everything back to HTC factory specs. That includes the bootloader as well. So it will not be S-OFF anymore. It will be locked, S-ON once again.
Search around here for some of those files. There are old ones, & newer ones. Just make sure you get one that people already figured out how to unlock. Many times, the newest version doesn't get figured out for whatever reason.

Actually if you have true radio s-off you won't loose that, you will have to flash bootloader/recovery/and rom again though
