[Vibrant General] lazi punk:
did you ever figure out? im in the same boat...

i think i can get what you are saying, cleaning the usb port on the phone right??

BUT how does this affect turning the phone on?? if usb port is rusty, it will only affect charging, not turning the power on? :confused:
[Vibrant General] Rahhstah:
I experienced this identical issue last fall -- the USB would always say it was connected, wouldn't startup unless connected to actual USB, but otherwise worked fine.

Take your phone apart and look at the solder joints on your microUSB port... mine all had cracks in them or had broken free. I re-flowed the solder while holding the port down and it resolved my issues. (put on some flux, and run a hot soldering iron across the joints, clean up... it's not very difficult. just be sure you don't short out any of the pins.) I also added additional solder to the four points that just hold the mircoUSB to the circuit board. It's been rock solid since :)
[Vibrant General] lazi punk:
that sounds very difficult actually.. as I dont own any of the tools :(

anywhere cheap to recommend?
[Vibrant General] EvilNCarnate:
See if there is a TV or electronic repair place still in business in your area. Or post an ad on CL asking someone with knowledge and skill to do it. Be careful they aren't an idiot just wanting 20 bucks and happen to own a soldering iron.
[Vibrant General] Rahhstah:
you could see if Cell Phone Repair/ is near you and describe to them what you want to do.
[Vibrant General] Xdogg:
I would go through these guys they are top notch helped me when i soft bricked my wife's phone. He even convinced me that i could fix it myself when i was ready to send it to them for a jtag.

They can replace the usb plug if thats the issue.

[Vibrant General] ferhanmm:
I would test to see if my battery is bad first before i went about resoldering, it could easily be a bad battery.
[Vibrant General] lazi punk:
thank you for the response. I definitely think the usb port is an issue. what is a jtag? haha

No my stock battery is charging and i did buy a separate battery. same issue.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
Hi Guys.

I have watched your Noob video and it's very funny. :-)

However,I am going to have to risk being a "noob" due to the fact that im unable to post in the dev thread for downgrading.

I have decided to root my DHD and everyone says this is the place to go to learn how to do it.

I have read the instructions throughly and decided to take the plunge, however I'm having some problems

with the method described in the first post!

Please let me tell you what I have done so far.

1) I have read the posts at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=879525 (doesn't seem to apply to me.)

2) I am running Build version 2.50.405.2 (So I need to downgrade.)

3) I have the latest version of HTC Sync installed.

4) I have created a gold card as directed in the "How to downgrade" post and also placed PD98IMG.zip in the root of the gold card

inserted in the phone.

5) My DHD is running Gingerbread 2.3.3, Software number 2.50.405.2 so I followed section b2 of the downgrade thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=905003

However at the end of the cmd process I see a "$" symbol, not the "#" as per the screenshot.

Any ideas anyone?

Cheers.

Greg.

Update: I just tried the method here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1152233

for "TEMP-ROOT ANY Gingerbread build and downgrade to 1.32.405.6"

I manage to temproot using the alternative method of typing the adb commands under the Temp Root heading.

I finally get the "#"

I still have the gold card with PD98IMG.zip in the DHD.

I go to Downgrade step 4 and again use the alternative method and type in the commands only for cmd to say

"adb: not found"

AAAGGGGHHHHHHH!

I have been trying this all day.

I'm going to curl up in a corner and cry now.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Greg.

Hey dude.

Tried this, didn't work.

I successfully manage to get temproot using the code you gave, but then on reboot the below happens.

Always, when I get to the boot loader it recognises PD98IMG.zip and looks like it's loading it. After loading it I get a "Checking PD98IMG.zip" message then the bootloader just returns to the main screen, I am never asked if I want to update!

Getting totally flumoxed with this! :-(

So I have made a youtube video of the problem.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MichDHD:
You can't just flash PD98IMG.zip when this is an older base then your current.

When your phone is finished checking, it decide not to flash it cause it's older.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
Apologies, I should have said I manage to get temproot using the code supplied. I have updated the post now.

Cheers.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
I wonder if my PD98IMG.zip file is corrupt.

I just did an MD5 check but it's tough to tell as the original PD98IMG.zip file I downloaded from here didn't have an MD5 Checksum with it
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeamDraven:
Hi guys.

Quick update. I have successfully downgraded my DHD.

The issue was a corrupt PD98IMG.zip

I downloaded MD5 Check 2.1 from here and tested the checksum of the PD98IMG.zip against the MD5 Checksup posted at the top of the page here, post 261,

Quick Ref - (C3D244A9F056E48EE3851A14FF52204C)

When MD5 Check 2.1 showed it as not matching, I downloaded a new PD98IMG.zip from here.

I used MD5 Check 2.1 to the checksum this new PD98IMG.zip. Success, it matched.

I transferred the new PD98IMG.zip to the goldcard I made using these instructions (I don't know if I actually needed a goldcard).

I put the Goldcard in my DHD, used cmd to run the below code as given by rohithksaj, thanks bud, which echoed the instructions here.

adb push fre3vo /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/fre3vo
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/fre3vo -debug -start F0000000 -end FFFFFFFF

adb shell
after this # type:
/data/local/tmp/misc_version -s 1.31.405.3
exit
adb reboot bootloader

When the DHD rebooted into bootloader, I selected "bootloader", then waited about 5 seconds for the bootloader to recognise the PD98IMG.zip.

the DHD then goes through a process of loading the PD98IMG.zip then it checks the PD98IMG.zip.

Finally the screen that eluded me appeared, the "Do you wish to start update?" screen.

I chose yes, 5 mins later I had a downgraded phone.

Thank you all for your help on this issue.

Props to you all.

Greg.

[7 Mozart General] ZeeShh:
Any news when Orange UK HTC Mozart will get the Mango update?

cheers...
[7 Mozart General] manishabanzadeh:
they said "fall"
[7 Mozart General] andrew-in-woking:
Autumn?

Hi manishabanzadeh

I don't think Orange UK would have said "Fall", Autumn maybe but not fall.

In reality, Orange UK are quite often one of the slower operators to push any sort of software update, and I can remember as far back as the Nokia 6310i

Cheers

andrew-in-woking
[7 Mozart General] feygor:
I have to agree with andrew-in-woking, Orange UK were one of the very last to roll out Nodo, though Microsoft have been putting pressure on operators to release Mango very soon. The problem with Orange is that within the company everything is a 'need-to-know' basis. Most of the workers at Orange didn't even know that Nodo had been released until after the rollout. I've asked customer service and in store and either they have no idea what Mango is or they just can't get an answer from above on the release date. It's quite disappointing really, makes O2 start to shine a little more. Oh well, at least we got wp7 first

U can use the nodo forced update trick to force the update through - I've been running Mango since yesterday on my Orange branded HTC Mozart :)

I think they're not over advertising because supplies/distribution are really low right now.

The Best Buy across the parking lot only got in 2 for Friday, and no accessories at all.

Not sure about other devices, but on HTC devices, as long as you can boot into the bootloader, you are ok. You just use the fastboot command and reflash all the partitions.

Yes, you are right, as we are able to get into bootloader we can use fastboot to flash partitions. What if we failed to get into bootloader, ie volume down + power on. Is it possible to fix the device.? If we erase recovery partition volume down + power on won't work.

unless things have changed in the last 2 days, you shouldnt be flashing any other kernels yet on CM7. you havent specified which kernel you were trying to flash, but you should be using the one that came with CM7 for now.

Actually, fluax has a 1.3 kernal for the cm7 rom. another thing, the rom comes with his 1.1oc kernal. so yes you can flash it, i can give you a link to the kernal if you want, and to flash a kernal you need to be sure its meant for that rom or it wont boot, if it is then just clear catch, some say dalvec or something in advanced but i didnt do that when i flashed the 1.3 for alien.

From two years experience with HTC, that's what I thought was the issue too. That is, their servers that host this either suck or are low-priority (to HTC).

On the other hand, I'm almost positive that a week or two ago, it did NOT work on either my wife's T-Bolt or mine (both running Sky Raider) but it DID work on my old Eris. Others have suggested they query your phone model before serving pages (??).
