Hi all,
My wife has a desire HD and earlier in the year I did the root so she could have a different rom on. Everything went fine, and then last month we tried MIUI. She loves the phone and the ability to change roms, but here's the problem.....the volume down button has stopped working
First I thought it could just be dirt, but after carefully removing the silver rocker switch and cleaning it, it's definately a fault button on the circuit board. It's under warranty, but obviously we will need to return it to factory stock condition.
To make matters worse, we don't have any backups
I have tried the RUU files but they don't work. Even if I download a stock rom and try the clockworkrecovery it keeps saying BAD IMAGE
Without being able to get into the recovery (holding the volume down button) do we basically have an expenive door stop now
Thanks for any help you can give!
I never flashed a stock rom before, but it's surely not through clockworkrecovery.
Download the latest rom for example, from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1382928
Install HTC Sync from the htc website and install the rom from the pc, while phone is synced.
Can you connected to HTC Sync with non-Sense based ROM?
may be,u can use rom manager to boot to cwm recovery.

Every single ROM since we installed MIUI keeps saying BAD IMAGE
the problem is complicated but the solution is quite simple head here http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Ace:_Support_Downloads and download the stock images then follow this steps:-
1. place it at the root of your sdcard as "PD98iMG.zip"
2. use any app you like to boot in bootloader not the recovery
3. it will automatically serach and ask for update press vol up to confirm
4. after reboot you will have stock and NO ROOT
5. then install HTC SYNC on your pc and then try the RUU of your choice it will work

I've just installed the TB and also BusyBox but when i try to uninstall an app (ex. Amazon) the phone reboot and go in a strange situation.
On the screen appears a triangle with exlamation point within and a "Android man".
I can't do nothing and the only way to put the cell "on" is removing the battery.
Like this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pba-OdrwnYQ
That's the stock recovery screen. Press volume up and power at the same time to get recovery choices and using the volume buttons to toggle, highlight restart/reboot then press power to select. Sounds like you need clockwork recovery installed. If you're rooted s-off you can download rom manager from the market and install clockwork from there.

I already flashed the last recovery 2.5.1.3 but not installed with rom manager, is the issues ?
Theoretically, i'd say that the best way to remove "bloatware" would be to install a custom rom, preferably an Android Revolution HD Rom (I'd suggest the latest one). If you feel comfortable, that is. I remember when I first got the Desire HD, I thought it was perfect as it was. Believe me, I was wrong :O
Anyways, flash that rom, it'll all be removed, but HTC Sense and core components will remain. To find out how to do that, head over to the Android Development section and all will be revealed. Follow instructions carefully at all times! Good day sir
I don't knwo where to post this exactly so here it goes.
I installed revolution 2.09 on my rooted HTC HD without any problems.
Run perfectly. Then today I installed a ROM of a theme from this forum as well called media 1.3 with rom manager.
After the reboot my phone only shows a the text android with a slight moving glow over it. It does not repsond to anything any more. I removed the battery but the same thing is happening.
Did I brick it? What can I do?

thats just the default android boot screen, looks like the theme messed up your framework... hold on i'll make a .zip you can flash from recovery to fix it
Thanks, but how do I get the zip on the phone? It does not react to anything anymore. I attahced it to my PC but nothing....

im just downloading the rom for you now so i can extract the framework, if you pull your battery out, you can either plug in your charger while its off, this will bring up recovery, or while its off, hold vol down and press power, that will take you to bootloader, and just pick recovery from the list, now when in recovery, if you navigate to the mounts and storage menu, choose the option mount usb storage, you can now connect to a pc as a disk drive and copy stuff to your sd card
im having trouble uploading attachments to xda at the min dya want me to upload it to megaupload for you?
AndroHero,
Thank you for helping me out. I didn't know about the vol down press power option which allows you to acces the sd card and intall a new rom. I had the revolution rom 2.0.9 already. It's installing as we speak. Much thanks for the tips!
To early hooray. I choose the option with the revolution zip for a complete install. After the install I selected rebouut system now. Now it stays on the white HTC screen with the text HTC quitely brilliant. Flashing every 3 seconds or so....
What to do now?
Everything is resolved. revolution is up and running again. I had to un the fullwipe.zip and that did it!
THANKS a lot for all the tips....again

Did you do a full wipe before re-flashing your ROM? even if you did just repeat the process , full wipe /cache, /dalvik-cache, /system and then re-flash the rom fingers crossed it should work
Hi,
I am having a similar problem. I tried flashing the cyanogen mod and after installing it the phone doesnt boot up. Its stuck on the t-mobile boot up logo. Ive tried restoring my back up but I get the same problem.
Any help would be great!
Thanks

Could it be possible that you installed cwm 3005 and tried a restore with that. I had the same problem. Went back to cwm 2.5.x and then restore worked.
Sent from my Desire HD
I think there will be a lot of scare because of this CWM 3x...
Same happened to me the other day, stupidly accecpted the update prompt from Rom Manager, did my backup and went to install Cyanogen 6... Got stuck at HTC logo next boot.
Thankfuly, had Leedroid 2.0 on the SD, too, and that one flashed properly
Thing is that when I try to downgrade the Recovery to 2.5x I get an error and really can't be bothered with ADB pushing stuff around, so using Cyanogen 7 for the time beeing
Anyhow, CWM 3.x is likely your problem, easy to fix ^^
Wanting to change my theme on the Samsung spica I had theexact problem on cyanogen mod. Had to redo the whole rooting and installing the Rom again to get to work.

yes, is some script...back to recovery 2.x
i was using android build but last night,when i tried to install htc stock rom it installed successfully but after wards it cant boot.when ever i boot my phone..htc green logo appears but NO system info(at down left corner red coloured).it stucks at that screen only.i tried hard reset.but it successfully reset the phone.but the problem remains same..please help.
Sound like you got a bad flash, down load the rom and reinstall it
Try restarting the phone holding volume down + power. Then when in bootloader, reinstall stock rom.
Finally, reinstall the rom you wanted.

i tried this but ...it installs complete rom but still getting same problem..even it installs the magldr..but stucks at that at that screen only...is it a harware problem.?
I don't think it's an hardware problem.
Can you try a task29 before flashing the Rom?
sent from my HD2 using XDA App
actually I have heard that middle battery pin creats problem. ...btw I have tried task 29 too,but no luck.
Well, this happened to me once. For some reason stock roms don't play well when you come from android install. What you have to do is, get a custom wm6.5 rom from development forum (nrg roms seem to work well for me) and then install it. It should boot fine, install stock HTC rom now if you like.
Hope this helps

i tried this with omega custom rom and radio 2.15.50.14.but still the same ;'(.no luck
Nothing works
How is flashing done? I'm looking all over the place to fix a boot error and everyone says flash stock rom, but i don't know how to do that. Can anyone help?
I have a tmous hd2 and I've tried
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50_22_2_Ship
and
RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.48.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.28.50.07U_2.05.51.05_2_Ship
Don't know what I'm doing wrong.
i think ..you are not using correct rom for your phone.download 3.14 stock roms ..hope that would work.installing stock rom is nothing..but just connect your device in bootloader mode and run the exe rom file you have downloaded.thats it!
is there any one who can solve my problem..plese.
Try installing the stock rom specific to your phone (the correct region, TMOUS,Euro,etc)
by using the sd card method.
1. Download the rom
2. Rename the ruu.exe file's extention to .zip
3. Extract the file with the extention .nbh
4. Rename that file to LEOIMG.nbh and place it at the root of a 4Gb or smaller sd card
5. Put the card in your HD2 and boot into bootloader by holding the Volume-down button while booting up
6. Follow any on-screen prompts to flash the rom.
7. Reboot when finished
Hopefully by flashing this way, your problem with hanging at the splash screen will be solved.
You will have to re-install HSPL though, flashing from sd card removes it.
i tried stock rom europe for my hd2 but still same problem.it installs rom correctly..but hangs at boot..no system information..
my friend told me that you will have to replace your motherboard.is it true??or should i send this device for jtag unbrick.
hi guys .. i have HTC Desire HD it was working very well on version 2.3.3 then i decide to downgrade it to 2.2 so i can get root + recovery by following this guide :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1152233&highlight=downgrade
i followed the instruction EXACTLY as it was posted after i get to bootloader and i made the update the phone restart and died for almost 5 mints then it switched on HTC logo and keeps vibrating for 2 mints then it works normally .
each time i switch it off it needs 5 mints to turn on after that it keep vibrating as i have said even i cant go to bootloader mode (by pressing volume down + power ) but only with terminal command or by using Ultimate Multi Tool .
by the way :- my phone is 2.2 + S-Off + recovery .
Install rom manager and flash recovery again. Then try and flash a new rom.

I think the problem is that you are using stupid fonts on the forum haha
Erm, try and use a full wipe script, look in the Android Revolution thread.
Probably a corrupt bootloader, maybe try flashing it again?

no need to use those words man ,,, i tried full wipe by using this FULL_WIPE_1.5_EXT4_.zip
wipe it, Reflash and maybe re-root!
re
Just the bootloader...
I had a similar problem when I tried to root and flash ROM's on to mine.
In the end I started the whole process again. I went right back to the beginning as if my phone wasn't rooted. It seemed to work, I don't know but maybe first time round I made a stupid mistake and was a little more careful on my second run.
Anyway, I would suggest re-rooting your phone, then flashing a ROM again. I know it's long but sometimes it's the only way!
Good luck!
To op.
I would recomend using ROM Manager from market, and from there, flash Clockwork Recovery (CWM).
I don't know what recovery or what rom you have tried, but i could point you in the direction of a CM7 rom (Cyanogenmod) or something like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840040 . That might do the trick..

Assume your phone is rooted? I have had my inspre 4g (same phone as HD) hang a few times and by just removing the battery, waiting a few minutes and then restarting (while holding the down volumn button) got me back to recovery, From there you can either restore from previous backup or load another rom from your sd card. Some more info would help,

thanks bro
iam newbie
but i don't know how to load another rom?and which rom will work?
can you give just hint please?
If you don't have a clue I'd say download an RUU exe from the development forum and run that. It will reinstall a stock copy of android on it.

so which rom will be need?
and guide me.
Search for oxygen rom on xda (I know this rom works since I'm using it) and then put it on an SD card and put that into your phone. Take the battery out and put it back in after a couple of mins, hold volume down and power till it boots into cwm then use the volume buttons to go up and down
And power button to select and first do a wipe and factory reset then install zip for SD card, back up if you want but not sure if there is any point keeping a back up of something that doesn't work. Hope this helps we were all newbies at one point lol

First of all, you need to research before you go and try rooting and installing custom roms. Its essential to be prepared for hiccups along the way. You said you did a factory reset,that's not good. By doing that you have deleted your clockworkmod recovery. So you have two options reinstall cwr and flash a custom rom or simply reinstall an ruu.
I actually wrote a guide for this issue, as it happens alot. Its called "stuck in hboot read this" its in the general section. Their it has steps on how to reflash cwr or an ruu
