My htc desire has boot loop. It starts and after htc logo appears , phone is rebooted and all the time. only thing which works is remove battery.

is this possible to copy (backup) my contacts from my phone??

I tried using revolutionary , and unrevoked3 but they don't work. I have connection using adb but when i try to use unrevoked3 i get error "failed to push flasher . terminating "

when i use revolutionary i get error "Zerging Root... this might take a minute or so.. Communications with phone unexpectedly interrupted. Try again.Press (almost) any key to exit." I also tried android flasher but also without success.

Can anybody help me? How can i backup my contacts

Flash the downgrader first, then flash stock hboot.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scaper777:
Since you recommended me to look at this topic according my problem, I still can't find my solution so i might need a little bit of help.

Currently I am using Cyanogenmod on my phone but i want to flash it to the original rom (android).

When i run the RUU (android 2.3 upgrade) everything seems to go fine untill it reboots and it's waiting for the bootloader. On my phone i see a black screen with the letters htc in it and after a while my phone just boots up. After the bootup the RUU installation comes with an USB connection error.

Some info that might be helpfull

I also noticed something new. When I open my ROM manager it says current Clockworkmod 5.0.2.0. But when I reboot into recovery it's still Clockworkmod recovery v2.5.0.7. I came to this cause i wanted to partition my SD card for trying out some ROMS that help me to go stock again, but with no luck.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Try an alternate method of using the RUU, since you get a connection error try using PB99IMG. Everything explained in 2nd post.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bigdrago:
I had the same problem.

First I rooted the phone with www.unrevoked.com

Then I s-off'd the phone using revolutionary.io

Then u can update to the newest recovery with ROM manager clockworkmod.

I use amon-ra as recovery boot. Also used amon-ra to make a ext4 partition to save apps on.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scaper777:
I am stuck @ the part going to s-off because I stille have HBoot 083.0001 and revolutionary.io asks for a HBoot that is a higher version to get the beta key.

I am stuck @ the part creating a gold card. Everything works fine untill i get till step7 and have to send my reversed ID (at an alternate site) there is no way to send my ID at this site.

is there any other possibilty ?

I have tried some new thing. When i just run the latest RUU in your guide it gives me a new error. When I run the update it says: customer-id error. Get the right ROM update tool and try again.

I have read the things for alpharev but it's just not clear to me what do to exactly...

I downloaded the .img file but i have no clue where to go with that.

Using a RUU to upgrade my bootloader is not an option since it fails all the time when it's in progress.

Battery Problem

Hi Guys. My first post here I think. Anyway, just read through the whole thread as well as whole bunch of other threads here and other sites and I can't seem to find an answer to my problem. Here's my story - I have a 15-month old HTC Desire which I've recently rooted. I'm now currently running Oxygen 2.3.2. Recently, I've been experiencing very rapid battery drain ( make that 1 to 2 hours from full charge). I've tried resetting the battery stats but it doesn't help. I also tried going back to my old rooted Froyo rom but no change. I transferred my sim to my old phone and right now I'm just using the Desire to read ebooks.

How do I check if this problem is related to root, or the rom, or simply a a battery gone bad? I can always buy a new battery but I'd like to pinpoint the cause of the problem first so I don't waste any money.

Hope somebody can help.:)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Li-ion battery's usually have a shelf time of about 12 months or so, so it could only be the battery (if you're not experiencing any other issues that is!), if you're phone isn't getting hot, restarting etc. then it has to be the battery.. if you have a friend or relative who has a HTC Desire try to swap batteries for a few hours and see how it goes... or you can just call HTC and send it to them, warranty is 2 years so they'd "fix" it for you for free either by giving you a new battery, or replacing components in the phone, or if you;re lucky a Desire S
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipster7:
Ok sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you, thanks for a start, but when ever I try to apply new bootloader, it says signature varfication failed. How do I fix this?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
skip the part of flashing the hboot, just run the RUU that rootSU gave you and you should be good
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hausteam:
Thanks Bortak. I don't think the warranty route would work (not here anyway) since I already rooted my phone. Everything else is working fine (no heat build up or reboots). Oh well, time to get a new battery I guess.

Thanks for the advice.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
doesn't matter if it's rooted. All you gotta do is run a RUU for your network provider (or the 2.3.3 RUU) and HTC will honour your warranty, since they'll never be able to tell whether you've rooted or not (yay) so you're fine for warranty. Seriously instead of forking out like £35 quid for a battery just call HTC and be without a phone for like a week or two and get some peace and quite from all the *****es (well that's what it is for me anyway)

btw sorry for any spelling mistakes (if there are any) I'm a bit drunk and I just got home lol
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hausteam:
This is an unbranded unit bought in the open market. I think they only gave me one year warranty. I'll try the RUU route and see if it solves the problem. Thanks again.:)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scaper777:
Sorry to kept you waiting. But i have good and bad news. The RUU was finally fully loaded and the ROM was installed BUT, when i come to the introduction screen from android and following the steps i get stuck. He comes with an error Activitie configuration (close now). and when i close it, it just starts from the begin.

I dont know if it's necessary but i'm not from the UK as it's mentioned in the RUU.

I am from holland. Even when i use a rom from htcdev I still got the same problem with the introduction screen.

p.s. My hboot is finally 0.93.001 so this might open new doors for me :D

The solution which worked for me was to flash Android 2.3. SLCD Working !!

I tried to make goldcard and even then I failed to flash 2.1 ROM. I hope gold card was not correctly made.

Then I tried to root phone with UnRevoked. It failed and created boot-loop. So, I tried to flash 2.3 ROM again. And now my phone won't start. Their are no LED also.

BTW, I'll like to inform that during RUU test, once it said that I've below 30% battery and it will not flash ROM. I went to bootloader and flashed somehow. And the experiment went on till I recovered SLCD. So, I hope my battery is totally drained. I'm going to charge for at least 24 hours and will try to power on it.

If you have any idea why my phone doesn't boot and why there is no LED while charging, please inform me.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
You need to flash the stock downgrader hboot before you can run an RUU. The RUU is failing while installing the system because you have data++ which doesnt have enough space for the sense system to extract onto. First get fastboot drivers installed and then setup adb. After that boot your phone into fastboot by holding power + back, and run the "fastboot devices" command from your computer. It should show your devices serial number if it is detecting it correctly. Next download the bravo_downgrade.img from alpharev, and verify that the md5 sum is correct (optional but recommended). Place the image on your desktop then open command prompt and run the following to flash the hboot image (make sure that the phone is still in fastboot mode while you do this):

cd Desktop
fastboot flash hboot bravo_downgrader.img

These commands should only take a few seconds. Once they have completed reboot, then try the RUU again.

Do this:

Download the stock hboot from alpharev.nl , and flash it.

Then flash the 2.3 RUU.

I downloaded v1.8 stock and put the zip as PB99IMG.zip in the uSD card.

Once I booted it to the bootloader I think I read "wrong file" (the text flushed away qick).

May I flash it with fastboot?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
Are you sure you named it correctly? Make sure that its PB99IMG.zip , not PB99IMG.zip.zip (this may occur if file extensions are hidden).

Alse ensure that you've placed the file on the root of your sdcard, not inside of any folders.

Is there a direct boot to recovery from power off?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chromium:
First try just flashing the RUU (using the PB99IMG method). After that boot up the phone to see if it works.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Uqbar:
So RUU is a complete ROM, if I understand correctly. It should bring the RADIO modem along.

If your ideas are correct, the problem arises from that part... I strongly hope you two are definitely right. :)
