Hi Guys,
my HTC Desire GSM is stuck in Fastboot and won't boot into the ROM. The background to this issue is that I installed S-Off and then ClockworkMod and flashed Cyogenmod 7 to see if it would fix a reboot issue on the phone. The damn thing just reboots itself when the CPU is used heavily...
Anywho, after realising that Cyogen wouldn't resolve the issue I flashed the standard Virgin UK rom back over it and upgraded to 2.22.351.2 via the system update feature. The problem was that ClockwordMod was still installed and I had to get rid of it to sent the phone off for repair to Virgin!
So I did further research and found that I could flash HBoot via the AlphaRev.nl downgrader tool. I downloaded it and popped it into the root of my SD card and it flashed the bootloader back to Hboot 0.80.0000. That should have been it, but all of the sudden the phone no longer boots into the Rom. All it does is to power on and then go into Fastboot. That's it! When I try putting the standard Virgin Rom back onto the SD it tries to load it and then says "Main Version is older!" "Update Fail!".
How do I get around this now? The phone doesn't boot, so I can't re-flash S-Off and start again, not am I able to run the stock Virgin Rom within Windows because it complains about the versions.
Is there any ways around this situation? I just want to get the phone back to stock so I can send it to Virgin and get it repaired.
P.S. I *have* used the search function and spent the last 4 hours testing various things but I'm now stuck.
Cheers Guys!

Hi,
I have s-off and install cwm phone.
I found new ruu version for middle east (need arabic support), installed it, it doesn't boot, only till white htc screen. The phone was bought in Singapore (asia). So I made some battery pull outs since I was confused whats going on. Then I install back ruu for asia, it works again.
After trying some custom roms, I found out there are some issues with the the android, eg. Cannot sync gmail account for market to work, once after I entered my username & password, the phone restarted itself. Now, suddenly I cannot boot to android anymore, my cwm will say cannot read logs from e:/cache or something like that. I still can format and install roms, but It won't finish boot, either it stuck on white htc logo, or sometimes when I install zip again, it will get pass that but got stuck on after htc logo, eg. Coredroid startup screen.
Is my emmc fried? How much does it cost to fix it? Can I s-on before sending for warranty?

Hi All,
The last few days my phone rebooted it self numerous times. Later on it had more hard cures cause it rebooted but the screen stayed black.
I then let the battery drain and I could luckily boot it up again. I then thought I should flash an update of the Rom I was running which was Candykat.
I did that but my wifi was not working . So I flashed it two more times. But after the third time that I wanted to do it I tried to get into recovery but the screen stayed black....
And now I am unable to boot it , unable to get in to bootloader. When I plug it in to my laptop it says QHSUSB_DLOAD.
I am S-OFF and on HBOOT 2.15 and my Rom was CandyKat v1.6
I already tried going through it by Ubuntu but ubuntu doesnt recognze my phone......
Hopefully some one can help me out ?
Also tried disconnecting the battery but that didnt help either :crying::crying:
Any one ..... ?
I tried to upgrade my phone to 4.4.2 TwistedKat, but after a while i decided i didnt like it and deleted the zip file from the phone completely and attempted to reboot my phone. I tried to relock it but when i did the phone never turned back on. When i unlocked it again it would go back to TwistedKat and i really just want my old JellyBean back. Now when i turn the phone on it stays on the logo screen with the red writing saying this build is for development purposes. I could not really find any RUU to use and im still searching but having no luck. Please help
EDIT: Its a T-Mobile HTC One S. I can also still go to the hboot screen and
clockworkMod Recovery
Ok i ended up being able to bring back the TwistedKat 4.4.2 version, but i would still like help in returning my phone back to the OS it was. Can anyone help?
if you are s-on, did you flash boot.img ?
