It seems that your problem is complicated. Stock software and no recovery access makes it difficult to give an appropriate advice. Maybe something wrong was flashed on this phone or the worst case - "fried" eMMC chip. You can try to search across the forum for any similar or try various solutions but I cannot advice how to proceed. Sorry

When i tried using the ruu again it showed the old version which it supposedly upgraded was still in the phone.
Please help am so frustrated

Hint - flash hboot 0.98.2000
After use the latest RUU 2.10.401.8
Sent from my HTC Desire S using Tapatalk
Thanks for the quick reply. I have already tried flashing hboot_0.98.0000_361a7ba6_0310 onto it using android flasher in "fastboot usb plug" but it reboots and gets stuck at the htc logo again until i remove the battery.
Also here is what androidflasher shows me :
sending "hboot" (1024kb)...
OKAY [0.191s]
writing "hboot"...
(bootloader) image update is bypassed!
OKAY [0.030s]
finished.total time:0.221s
rebooting into bootloader...
OKAY [0.248s]
finished.total time:0.248s
rebooting....
finished. total time: 0.244s
**update**
was able to flash 4ext recovery using android flasher onto my device and tried updating with the ruu again. It still gets stuck at the htc logo white background (so i painfully remove battery again) but when i try running the ruu again from my pc it shows that i have the same version as the ruu.
Still stuck at white screen. Help!!!

see the version of the bootloader
if it is still 6.98.xxxx this is you problem. Flash 0.98.2000 with PG88IMG.zip from the SDcard or try 2.00.2002 - you can find this in the forums also
linkin8k
I have the same problem and I have not found the solution up here.
can anybody tell me can i solve this by JAG?i can do jtag my self
thanks for the replies sorry i couldn't post yesterday was trying to be in a festive mood.
**my progress**
I have tried all i can to update the bootloader, from putting the pg88img file in through root of sd to update through 4ext recovery to tryin to use android flasher to put the 0.98.2000 it won't just update.
please what else can i do?? is there a hboot installer for windows for me to try??
please help AmidaBuddha u have done a lot but i still need a little help. thanks
As much as i know would be the last possible solution to replace the bootloader with dd command inside adb shell or try to flash it with fastboot (to make this the htc drivers [if you are using windows] and the android sdk with the given android plattform-tools must be installed, if some parts are not present look at the index thread)
Walkthrough:
fastboot:
reboot your device to bootloader and put it in fastboot mode
open commanline at your pc
attach device to pc
cd to the directory where the hboot.img is ( extract it from the pg88img.zip file)
Code:
fastboot devices
(your device should show up as some letters and digits at the right of it should stand recovery, also the adb daemon is started if it wasn't running before)
fastboot flash hboot hboot.img
this replaces your current hboot with the hboot.img file, don't interrupt the process or pull the usb cable, this can brick your device, i'm not responsible if something goes wrong.
dd:
put the needed .img file of the bootloader at the root of your sd (extract it from the pg88img.zip file) and rename it to hboot.img
reboot to recovery
Open commandline at your pc
attach device to pc
Code:
adb devices
(your device should show up as some letters and digits at the right of it should stand recovery, also the adb daemon is started if it wasn't running before)
adb shell
(this opens the adb command shell, from where you can execute shell commands right at your device)
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 of=/sdcard/backup.img
(this backups your current bootloader partition to the backup.img file)
dd if=/sdcard/hboot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
(this replaces your bootloader partition with the boot.img)
exit
(exits adb shell)
adb reboot bootloader
(reboots your device to bootloader)
this backups your current bootloader to /sdcard/backup.img and replaces it with the boot.img, but beware this is hard stuff and be carefull, don't stop the execution of the any dd command and never pull the usb-cable while it writes your bootloader, this definitly can brick your device, i'm not responsible if something goes wrong, good luck.
Tectas thanks, see what i get using fastboot:
on command line:
c:\users>fastboot devices
SH14HTJ05*** fastboot
c:users> cd c:\temp
c:\temp>fastboot flash hboot hboot.img
sending `hboot` <1024 kb>... OKAY
writing `hboot`... INFOimage update is bypassed!
OKAY
on phone under bootloader menu:
Can not roll back hboot version
........
will try dd option now.
hi all xda community !
So here is the situation :
HBOOT Screen :
***UNLOCKED***
pyramid pvt ship s-off rl
HBOOT-1.27.0000
Radio-11.21.3504.13_2
OpenADSP-v02.6.0.226.00.0104
eMMC-boot
Symptom:
I'm Stuck in a bootloop after i flash the 3.24 firmware and the Elegancia ROM.
First Time the roms boot normaly, then i reboot with the USB Cable attach.
And here come the BootLoop
Try to go to recovery, but bootLoop too.........
So I can go in Hboot, i can do FASTBOOT command and that all.
I try to flash CWM from fastboot -- > Ok for flash but wont go in recovery..
Try to flash 1.17 firmware then flash ROM.zip from 1.35Ruu Europe release --> Bootloop
Try to Flash 3.24 Ruu Same BOOTLOOP..
So what can I do community ?
What Solution i have ?
Why i cant flash a recovery since i Have S-OFF ??
MAYBE :
- Maybe i flash a Ruu who was Corrupt
- Maybe the radio don't match the Ruu i Tried to flash
- Maybe i'm just a simple mind guy
It seems that the 3.24 Firmware from SebastianFM with hBoot unlock have some problem, cause it seems that i'm not the only one who got several problem after flash this Firmware.

I got you. Actually you do not have any custom recovery installed. Actually if you flash any RUU it will wipe your recovery partition and install stock recovery. So first you flash a custom recovery. I know you tried to flash CWM.But you got bootloop. Did you delete the file PG58IMG.zip from sdcard after flashing CWM ???? Please redo the following steps.
STEPS TO FOLLOW:
1. Download recovery v5.0.0.8 for the Sensation here .
2. Copy the PG58IMG file into the Root folder of your SD card (The main Folder of your Memory Card)
3. Turn off your phone.
4. Remove the battery.
5. Wait a minute.
6. Put the battery again.
7. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
8. The phone will boot into bootloader.
9. Press Volume up to Accept when it asks" Do you want to start the update"
10. Press Power Off to Reboot back to android after installation is successful (normal screen with homescreen)
11. It may not boot . Do not worry because you may have wiped out evrything.
12. Power off your phone.
13. Delete PG58IMG from your memory card .
14. Download your favorite custom ICS ROM.
15. Put it on the root of your SDCARD.
16. Remove the battery.
17. Wait a minute.
18. Put the battery again.
19. Press Power + Volume Down key together.
20. The phone will boot into bootloader.
21. Select "Recovery" by pressing Volume Down Key.
22. Press Power button after selecting Recovery.
23. Your phone will reboot into clockworkmod recovery.
24. Wipe system, boot, cache, data , and dalvik cache
24. Install your ROM from SDCARD.
25. Wait at least 7 to 10 minutes for first boot
26. Your phone will be normal now.
NOTE:
******* You must be SuperCID to do the above. Please also note , from your preveous post, I understand that you have V3.24 Firmware. Remember only ICS rom will work with this firmware. So do not flash Gingerbread ROM.**********
hi help is appreciate,
`So i tried to follow your step 3 times . One with 1.17 Firmware 3.12 & 3.24.
every time after flashing the recovery, i reboot and when i go to recovery the phone go into boot loop.

Which ROM you want to flash ??
Why did you try all three firmware ???? You should choose your firmware according to your ROM you want to flash.
You may get boot loop after flashing recovery as there might be no rom installed.
So as I said after flashing recovery you should power off your device. Then boot into bootloader by the preveous method. ( Step 3 to 7 ).Selct recovery by volume down key. Then press power button. You will be in recovery. And flash your ROM. But your ROM should match with the firmware.
Ok but How could i flash a ROm if i can't go to recovery ...
Ok maybe you miss understand, i got boot loop when i want to go to recovery too
Please tell me what ROM you want to flash. Post the link here. And once again you give the details of your boot loader screen. Do you have fastboot/adb set up on your PC?

So, Let fix the recovery first.
Download this attatched recovery (4Ext Touch).
MD5 Checksum : d31d7df8d275f7234416af6a2e8b1c73
Check the md5check sum after download. If it matches , go to the next step else redownload.
Put the downloaded recovery.img in the directory of your fastboot binary.
Connect your phone with pc via usb cable.
Reboot your phone into bootloader.
Open fastboot command from your pc.
Now type the following command in fastboot.
" fastboot flash recovery recovery.img "
After flashing type " fastboot reboot"
Now try to go to recovery. If it is successfull then I will tell you the ROM flashing part.
Please come on gtalk . My gtalk id is musarraf172
ok i'm on gtalk wait for ya
so i'm still in the BOotLoop mode.
i've tried almost everything who was in the forum.
i'm aware of the noob style problem(Firmware not updated, still got PM58IMG.zip in SDcard, wrong Rom--firmware etc ..) and i'm not in this case !!!!
I think the device is brick but maybe someone with good knowledge, and experience can help me.
For now i got the last Hboot, i can flash recovery from fastboot , the command return OK but recovery wont boot.
Ruu flashing run nice with no problem but don't Boot (.exe and PM58IMG.zip).
when i try to unlock bootloader (who is already mark S-OFF but just for try)
with the HTCDEV method i'm stuck on the Unlock bootloader screen and i can't click YES.
it seems that my data partition have disappear ...
I here if you need more information.
Maybe someone can tell me if it's possible to FullWipe from fastboot ?

if yo can go in fastboot your likley not bricked.
you can always flash the original or similar ruu (not a rom) you phone came with in fastboot.
so you will go to stock with your hboot and recovery and to see if it boots.
then do the whole process over. s-off, then root.
then check your mid and cid if its supported.
and only then update to ics.
btw whats the type of phone? branded or og htc
my phone is from vodaphone so branded.
What do you mean by flashing your original or similar Ruu ?
The one coming with the phone out of box ?
i flash via command, .exe or PM58IMG.zip ?
i don't write my original cid is it bad ?

yes the rom the phone came with or close to it (any with recent ota`s).
always flash the ruu.exe because it wil recover the hboot, radio and recovery to stock. (zipfiles can be easily corrupted)
so go in fastboot usb (via power and volume button) and run the ruu.exe
then s-off/root the device
when s-off you should be able to install recovery within the original rom like cwr or ext4 updater tool, backup, then check your mid and cid, get a correct zipfile for the ics firmware update, flash arhd (it includes the lastest ext4 recovery). then change roms if you like.
you then also can check if the phone is working correctly.
if you already changed to supercid, i think its oke.
if not, on the forum there is al list of cid`s from different countrys and brands.
also there is al list of originals ruu the devices came with.
i assume you have done custom roms before ics came out?
so the cupercid was applied correctly?
i never supercid my devices (on a personal note)
and always flashed the testroms (to get the latest firmware) with no probs.
but if your branded its mandatory.
i've already flash 3 Ruu from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074559
and all finish in a bootloop with no stock recovery... almost all Ruu run fine with no alert
ruu i flashed already :

It says locked now because I installed the 3.33.40 ruu, I think that's why. It is s-off. The brick was caused by flashing some roms. it was working quite good but sudenly it stopped working and entered the bootloop. Now after flashing this ruu it keeps in the loop.
Thanks for the fast reply btw

if yes use that pg58img.zip
it doesn't contain firmware only the recovery.img
flash it from bootloader

your device it is not bricked as long as you can enter to the bootloader
so i think it won't help
a bricked device is when it doesn't do anything at all anymore. It won't boot and doesn't respond to anything, even when it's fully charged and wall plugged. the screen will stay permanent black. So there's no point in doing the unbricking project.
Bootloop is generally caused by ROM's that are incomaptible with FW. and as long as you can't enter recovery, the bootloop is not your first concern. once you get recovery up and running you can flash a working ROM
You still can't enter recovery? And where did you download the FW? If you still can't get into recovery I suggest fasboot flashing a 4EXT recovery with the following command in bootloader:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I am SO Freaking lost..... My problem is my phone will freez at the HTC splash screen, and the only things I can get into is bootloader and 4ext recovery. I can't flash any images they don't want to be flashed with the PD98img.zip I can't do anyting my phone is empty with no android os.. I am stuck.

In the link you provided, on the first page, there were two seperate downloads, depending on when the phone was developed. "Download (restores to official Froyo 2.2.2) (315MB)" and also "Download (restores to official Gingerbread 2.3.3) (309MB)". Was just wondering which one you tried if any at all.
The only thing I can boot into is the 4ext Recovery Touch & hboot Can someone send me stock inspire 4g rom 4ext backup files they are *.tar files [email protected] Or [email protected]
Would that restore my system ?
the phone is

If this helps

4.Reboot to HBOOT: Shutdown completely (disconnect USB if connected and pull battery if necessary) then while holding down the VOL-DOWN key, press the POWER key for about half a second. The phone should boot into HBOOT, check the PD98IMG.zip for consistency, then prompt you to install. Select VOL-UP to install.
5.Once installed, HBOOT will prompt you to reboot by pressing the POWER button. Do this
I can get to step 4 and instead of flashing the PD98IMG.zip is says parsing and just goes back to hboot. I can't flash anything.
I have been making some MAJOR progress on my phone.. after messing around with a lot of fastboot commands, I found this with helped .. fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img if forces some images to boot.
Also the link I posted above only will work if my phone is relocked. I can't even make post in the Inspire 4G Android Development , because i'm "too new " to ask a question. But I managed to get his program to run again and I've noticed something. on step 7
7.Once successfully completed, the phone will automatically reboot to HBOOT and begin the process of installing the RUU. The only thing you have to do at this point is acknowledge the prompt to install by pressing VOL-UP. (Note: the RUU install may skip a couple of images during the install but this is normal.
IT FAILS to copy the RUU to the sdcard. and that's what has left my phone without an OS. I've also got the stock RUU htc_inspire4g_att_RUU_3.20.502.52_US.exe to run and complete But my phone hangs after the HTC logo..
So i'm headed in the right direction. Any ideas ???? ~ T
SO I've made a HUGE step in progress yesterday, I installed JellyTime rom and inspire mod and gapps. and forced the boot.img file to boot using fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot boot.img it made the boot.img to run and start JellyTime. I've got android installed on the phone now. The only problem is I need to S-OFF so I can fastboot flash boot boot.img. It won't do it right now, As of now the phone will bootup and hang on the White HTC logo screen, Every attempt to S-OFF the phone has failed so far. Any Ideas ?

You don't need S-Off to fastboot flash boot.img. Just an unlocked bootloader.

This is not at all helpful. He is asking for boot.img or S-Off help. If he can't do that his ROM is irrelevant.
OMG. this is the worst place for help ever. I have Jelly time installed and I can get into it But only AFTER forcing the boot.img to boot. I CANNOT boot into jellytime by it's self normally. BECAUSE I cannot flash the boot.img file I get an error message. Because I need S-OFF to be off. right now it's on. Everything I've tried has failed.

What does forcing the boot.img means? there is no other way to flash a boot.img that in fastboot if you are S-ON. There is no need to be S-OFF to fastboot flash. In fact, having S-OFF is not enough to enable flash commands in fastboot (you actually need ENG S-OFF for that).
I suggest that you give detail information about the errors and what you are doing if you want to get helped.
Hello,
I have htc inspire. My phone was new sept 2011 and worked until july 2012. My phone was set to charge only and usb debug disable and was never rooted. One night I put the phone to charge and the next day it I turned it on but it never made past the white screen. I have tried to put the rom on sd card as PD98IMG. I tried RUU. The phone lists:

When I try using RUU it gets stuck on reloading bootloader
When I try the PD98IMG method using a goldcard, it gets stuck:
parsing...[SD ZIP]
[1] BOOTLOADER -UPDATING
[2] BOOT
[3] RECOVERY
etc
Please help
Not sure but What helped me get past the HTC logo screen is just recovering the old Stock of the phone.
The link provided is to return back to old stock AT&T Roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385016
Boot your phone in Bootloader mode (PWR + VOL DOWN).
Run the RUU Installer.
For S-Off, Advanced Hack Kit (AAHK) was quite a big help to me.
My problem is I have s-on. Phone freezes when I try pd98img on sd goldcard. I can connect with fastboot but I am not sure how to use it. The phone was in charge only & usb debug off when it use to work.

since you are on S-ON you have to flash the boot.img of the rom via fastboot command
or flash 4ext recovery and enable smartflash from it before flashing the rom
as you understand in any case you need sdk tools(adb and fastboot) on your pc

Try following method 2 in this guide( through updating via PG58IMG.zip file) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599816. Be carefule about the md5 checksum of the recovery image. Double check before flashing!!
After this, boot into recovery(from the bootloader menu, select appropriate superuser.zip file(for rooting, search xda ...there are many options) and flash root. You now have a custom recovery and are rooted. Now you can flash any custom rom.
All the above assuming you can somehow transfer files to your SD card through a card reader or any other means...
NOTE: Delete the PG58IMG.zip after flashing recovery.

Still won't work. I have tried flashing stock firmwares, stock and non-stock recoveries, reflashing root.zip, restore from known good backups, nothing has worked. Phone is stuck at first HTC logo screen and will go no further, and with no USB connectivity, it's impossible for me to flash even PG58IMGs' because the phone is S-on.
Maybe this could work for you...just a suggestion

Ok, from your reply i gather that even though you transferred the PG581MG to your SD card, the phone did not update when your got to the bootloader menu. I do not think being S-ON will prevent you from installing from the zip file...but maybe i am wrong. Hey now all i can think is this:
Turn off your phone, remove the battery, wait for some time(~10seconds), then put the battery back in. Now press Power +Vol down switch together. Now at the boot loader menu select Fastboot and press Power button. Connect your phone to your PC now and wait. The check if the next screen shows 'FASTBOOT USB'.
If you get 'FASTBOOT USB' in the next screen, then you have multiple options, but for you i would suggest that you download the latest RUU for the phone depending on your region and cid. Then run the ruu while the device is still in FASTBOOT USB mode. This will restore your phone's firmware recovery and rom back to stock.
But if your phone does not show fastboot usb then i'm stumped dude...maybe the experts here in our sensation community will be able to help out....
All the best ...and report if anything improves...
