Exactly having some experience I started as I always do :

first I need some info, therefor I gave him the commands

the next step will be based on that info

Obviously you have some knowledge, but this process is not straight forward. There are various reasons for a such brick as well as various resolutions

I just pissed me off with the deffinite conclusion of yours about the corrupted bootloader. This is definately not the right approach. And you are definately not right about the region specific RUUs

Every action has the proportional reaction - my frustration came from your post. If cannot help better restrain from posting negative stuff. The Desire S forum here is known with a helpfull and friendly attitude but recently a lot of "know-it-all" guys started to hang around spoiling the community.

I hope you understood me right

[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
I think it's worth trying other ways, but in any case, just to share knowledge:

There have been a few cases till now in MT4G forum with the phone showing all signs of eMMC corruption that couldn't be taken care of with formatting partitions in recovery (which is half the way to bad eMMC diagnosis), and when trying to flash RUU - instead of the standard "Fail-PU", the update just got stuck on certain partition (not always bootloader - also /boot, /system, /userdata, and once I remember even /recovery). There was absolutely no way to flash or format this specific partition using any means - all got stuck, so in fact, while not showing the "classic" (Fail-PU) symptops of dead eMMC, it was just as good as dead. Which, I'm afraid, might be the case here.

Though it definitely won't hurt the phone owner to try additional ways of reviving the phone. In the worst case my diagnosis will be confirmed, and in the best case he'll get his phone to function again and I'll learn something new.

Got exactly same problem as |=>AmuzZ<=| -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1716790 will try after work and post results :)

PS.

GoldCard wont help - same situation in post #22
[HTC Desire S] Jack_R1:
GoldCard either already helped you or wasn't necessary. You wouldn't get to "updating" part if the PG88IMG.ZIP was with incompatible RUU and without goldcard.

Also, please try "fastboot oem rebootruu" way of flashing RUU:

[HTC Desire S] kenkitt:
I've been facing issues trying to install roms for desire s, unfortunately most of the roms I download don't work, I only see htc logo then phones screen goes off, am sure the phone is not off since power button does not respond at this time.

I am S-OFF and on 7.0.... hboot with TWRP recovery, and have use revolutionary hboot too.

The only two roms that have worked so far are official ics which am currently using and cm-7.2.0-saga.zip.

Unfortunately the official ics has no usb debugging mass storage and all usb related stuff, I have tried activating them manually with no luck.

While the working cynogenmod 7.2 works perfectly only it's too old.

I am even considering looking for the official ICS kernel sources and compile them myself to solve the usb issues.

Anyway I happen to come across a this problem "error mounting cache" in recovery, I almost thought am done for, anyway a TWRP restore fixed it so I think it has something to do with partition related problem.

Anyway I was just wondering which rom to download next.

I have tried.

cm-10.1-20131110-UNOFFICIAL-saga.zip <-------------black screen after htc logo

cm-10-20121116-EXPERIMENTAL-saga-NK111.zip<------same as above

cm-7.2.0-saga.zip. <-----------Wow atleast the updater script are similar so it couldn't be a TWRP issue since this one works.

Official RUU ICS <----Via the PB89..... zip thing works, I almost thought I might be stuck on 2.3.7 or lesser.

EDIT:

I always do a full wipe, data, dalvik cache,asec and cache.

Gallery 3D app keep losing response and crashes a lot.. even after several reboots. And there is RAM hog but cannot find what it is.

Thanks for keeping up Captivate development.
[Captivate Android Development] DimSumGuy83:
Decided to take a stab at this rom and I'm loving the look. I did notice a weird glitch; I charged my battery to 100% before flashing this and once I got the rom up and running, the battery icon changed to half full every time I plugged it via USB on my computer.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Several KJ2 and KJ3 ROMs have Gallery issues. Some phones don't (like GPS issues) but some do. I tried QuickPic from the market and have had no problems since.

Also TRusselo reported this would fix the black screen when opening Gallery.

i found after theming frameworkres the gallery goes black, to fix:

menu> Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Gallery 3D > clear data (user data/ wipe data in tibu)
[Captivate Android Development] chappatti:
Need to recalibrate battery. This is a common symptom when flashing a new ROM. Please also wipe data and cache before flash. See here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765656&highlight=recalibrate+battery

Also, I noticed that you need to recalibrate stats just after flashing ROM. In my case flashing a kernel and then recalibrating throws the battery stats off again........

---------- Post added at 01:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 PM ----------

On the KJ3 ROMs I do find RAM used at 230 or so.....I think that may be the base usage......Correct me if I am wrong? KH3 ROM runs around 170 or so...

And live wallpapers eat up even more...
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Not sure why there are problems with gallery and the browser. I still haven't had a problem with either. I just don't get it??????????

Might be a rare data corruption issue due to flashing. At least that's what it's sounding like to me.
[Captivate Android Development] immortalm:
This looks like a great ROM! Can't wait to try it out...DL'ing now!
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
It also could be glitch in the deodexing process. I've had to deodex a couple times before. Especially if I'm using Java allot. Reboot the puter and clear memory and stacks, always seems to solve the issue.

While I'm on odexed stock rather then Illuminance, I just bought Voodoo Control Plus. I do tend to have issues with the new market when having to redownload my apps though. Some refusing to goto the "Accept & Download" screen and just sit on the loading screen until I clear the data.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
I did clear the data and even market cache and dalvik cache still the same :(. i will try to get another modem maybe its the modem since my data seems to turning off sometimes by it self and be back on at moment my phone is dead on my last calibrate if this still persist ill try to do a wipe clean install again hopefully it solves it and redo my calibration again oh my what a pain for me anyways still loving the rom audience chip is really the best plus voodoo nothing beats it

Where is the link for v1.1? Currently charging my phone right now..
[Captivate Android Development] Lobizon:
Holy IlluminatedOne :)

Quick question... I'm actually on Pinnacle, and one thing that I like and use a lot is the ability to switch between 2g/3g networks. Does your ROM have such feature? If not, would you consider adding that in the future?

Please, excuse my english... and thank you for your awesome work ...

Amen :p
[Captivate Android Development] getinlost:
Yes, I tried that as well.
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Currently testing, will release in public in 2-3 days. :)

Is it through 'Device Customization' option?

Hmmm.. I will try flashing Corn Kernel and see. As of now my phone decided not to behave properly. No matter what, I am not able to flash Modem and current baseband version is unknown. :mad:
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I just flash KI2. What modem are you trying to flash?
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
I flashed my latest ROM build without wiping the data/cache/dalvik (God knows what I was thinking that I changed the script too), it deleted the old modem but didn't flashed the new one. And then I try to flash only modems, no matter which one, it does not appear in baseband version (in about phone).

EDIT: Flashed Stock KJ3 OneClick, got it back. Flashed Illuminance 1.1, working fine now. :)
[Captivate Android Development] ralphreyes:
IlluminatedOne,

Will you be adding the music player from SGS2?

I tried the one from Pinnacle and it works pretty good. Looks nice on the stock glass lock screen too. It shows a certain glow on the controls I hadn't seen before.

[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Will add in 1.1!
[Captivate Android Development] Jammn:
I hardly ever use the extended character set do is not really a bother to me. Whether you include, or not is not a deal breaker, you are the boss.
[Captivate Android Development] d_gritza:
anyway of getting the sms app from sgs2?
[Captivate Android Development] Jammn:
Ok. I deleted the Swype files from system/app and system/lib and installed Swype beta 3.26 and the black/black problem is gone. So deleting from ROM may be a good idea.
[Captivate Android Development] Lobizon:
Hey Illu ... No, it's not .. In Pinnacle, one should go to SETTINGS -> WIRELESS AND NETWORK -> MOBILE NETWORKS -> NETWORK MODE

There, you have 3 options:

a) GSM/WCDMA (auto mode)

b) GSM only

c) WCDMA only

I think I read in Pinnacle's thread, that watsa had to put phone.apk an callsetting.apk from a I9000 ROM.

EDIT: There you go

Thanks again for reading, Illu...
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Alright. As of now, my ROM doesn't have it. Will try to look into it.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
Hmm this will loose the noise supression option i think its better to be just an add on for users who want it
[Captivate Android Development] AnarchoXen:
Latest (update) Build should read 1.0.1 yeah?

Might want to try flashing stock KF1 w/bootloaders with the proper pit file and repartirion checked. Let the phone boot fully. Then flash a kernel with CWM -- I suggest boog's kernel -- then flash Illu 3.0 followed by 3.0.1
[Captivate Android Development] FreddieP:
Thanks for your help. I switched computers and Odin saw my phone... both Dell win 7 64 laptops w/ same drivers installed.

I've only attempted factory reset from Android settings (which doesn't touch SD card unless told to do so) not from recovery so i'm not sure.

Thanks all for your helpfull suggestions! I finally got my phone back after installing the KF1 leak with .pit from samfirmware (the KH3 package didn't look like it contained the right files). Then a kernel w/ CWM. I am also reinstalling everything from the market as a precaution. I'd think app only from TiBu would be the same but I'm hoping to keep this go-round as clean as possible.

Illuminance is running great!
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:
Would you peeps recommend Supercharger or Thunderbolt tweaks? Which one works better for you?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
All the builds after KF1 have only been updates so they don't have all the files.
[Captivate Android Development] Stevenrogers_420:
My last effort included

1) Blow it flat to KF1 reboot

2) Install KJ3 as stated on Ills Install page, reboot

3) Install Boogs KJ3 CWM Kernel,reboot

4) Wipe data, cache, dalvik. reboot

5) set up accounts, dump Illuminance 3.0 on sdcard, reboot

6) Wipe data, cache, dalvik. Install Illuminance .zip from sdcard. reboot

7) set up accounts, Install all 29 user apps directly from market. reboot

8) install Corn Kernel 6.03. reboot

9) cry like a little girl when it force closes in the first 5 minutes of using.

not running EXT4.

Never had a FC on any other rom or factory flash...
[Captivate Android Development] jsfLip:
Hmm, my phone just froze/rebooted while using the music player at 50% battery life. Then when it booted back up, it was at 4%. It just went up to 5% as I've been using it. I'm calibrated.

R either of u using tweaks other than the way the Rom was built ??

I have been running the 3.0 since it was released and haven't had any issues. It runs great. Currently have the latest Corn Kernel, but it ran fine for me with Samurai as well. Only restored some missing apps and am not using any extra tweaks.

[Captivate Android Development] noma_pride:
Is this true? I have usually just flashed KJ3 right on top of Eclair/Froyo, but haven't run into any problems.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
If you look and compare the KF1 tar.md5 to all the ones that came after you'll see that the param.rfs and dbdata.rfs files are missing. param.rfs doesn't really affect much so it's not a big deal if you don't flash it and a factory reset should take care of anything dbdata.rfs would have taken care of.
[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
Have you maybe tried running samurai kernel for a while?
