Tried that too, still dead
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] if4ct0r:
Try connecting you DHD to the PC.

Download one of these Stock RUU's : http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Ace

Run the installer from PC. See if it detects the device.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedeon:
I understand I should not be worried that all of these RUU's are listed as for model: ACE?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] if4ct0r:
Not at all. 'Ace' is the codename HTC gave to Desire HD/Inspire. Just choose the RUU that fits your location(i.e. WWE stands for WorldWide Edition).
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedeon:
:eek: OMG! I was previously looking for stock roms and everytime I ended up on that site from your link I was annoyed that someone is giving a wrong link to roms for wrong phone. Silly me! :rolleyes:

I am downloading right now.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedeon:
No :( it says phone not connected (error[170])
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whiperhack:
My idea is to double check again the battery position in the socket and if it is ok try to leave it 5 minutes alone on the AC adapter. If this will not give good results, go to the appropriate HTC representative.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JSLEnterprises:
when you connected it to your computer... did it ask you to install qload drivers?

if not, go into device manager on your computer, then plug in your phone. If you see an unknown device that shows as qload something or other, then sorry to say, its bricked. :(

The only way to recover it now is via jtagging or replacing the mainboard (which generally is what they do when you send it in for warranty repair)
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedeon:
Yes, I thought about it as phone behave like it has no power at all. But this is not the case, as I have been flipping that and another battery in every possible position. And I know which one is correct as I can see where pins are in battery pocket. I left it alone under charging and other time with no battery at all hoping that will hard reset phone. No effect at all . :mad:

I had drivers previously installed. But I am not entirely sure are we talking about same thing as I don't know what QLOAD is. Anyway comp doesn't see any recognised or unrecognised device that could be my phone...

I am not worrying about damn phone as if it is hard bricked tech guys in service will not probably spot that it was rooted. So they will replace, or if not I will go to insurance company. Problem is it takes to much time, I wont make it b4 Christmas.

Thank you guys,

anyone has some other ideas? Please...

desperation bump
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] if4ct0r:
Sorry.. It really seems to be beyond software-repair, If it cannot boot in the bootloader or be recognized by PC there's really not much we can do. We need the device to start in some way.

Although one last thing that we haven't tried and can try is to see if it can be accessed via adb or fastboot. (Although I highly doubt it since the RUU also wasn't working).

I've attached the adb and fastboot files required to test that. Extract it, double-click on StartHere.bat and type "fastboot reboot" or "adb reboot". If it returns an error citing device not found then this too has failed.

(This probably wont work.. desperate action)

Another silly thing that might be tried is to try to put your phone on charging via a charger(not USB via PC) and then try to switch it on. Try normal switching, switching on to bootloader(volume down press)...

If these don't work then you really should give it to the repair center.. you're right that they wont probably realise that it was rooted and would probably change the main board.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedeon:
Sigh... I got "waiting for device" forever in CMD... As you said, it's dead. Gonna send it to HTC in Monday...

Thank you all, appreciate your time
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taticneb:
Hello hedeon,

I have the same experience today, as you state in the first post in this thread.

Did you, and how solve the problem?

Is there people with the same problem? This morning I receive notification about system update for my HTC Desire HD. The rest is exactly same problem from the top of this story = death + death + death.....
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyInTheCorner:
The problem is that you PULLED THE BATTERY WHILE UPDATING! Have some paitience. I switched on my DHD after 3 months and it needed updating. Takes around 20 mins to complete update
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taticneb:
May be, but updating started with downloading, then resetting, and then green line was growing up to 1/3 of total size, and at that size stay more then 20 min. Then I try to to push every button, and every combination of buttons, and after 10 minutes more I had pull battery out.

Was it too impatient ?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djolebih:
What was the Android version before you rooted if you can remember and which tool did you use to root?

From what you wrote earlier, it asked you for a 2.3 update which means you probably flashed a Froyo RUU as stock, to bring the phone back to stock ofc.

However, if your DHD came with stock Gingerbread, flashing a Froyo RUU will most definitely screw the phone. I'm not sure if it's beyond repair atm or not, but if that was the case, even if you didn't mess with the battery, chances are the phone would never boot anyway.

Look into AAHK thread, I think there is a good how to there.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hedeon:
I have sent it to HTC and they have fixed this no problem. Probably replaced main plate

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Blackberrynomore:
First my apologies for posting in DEV but my question was ignored in the Q&A section and I really need to know the answer. I plan to pickup a 8.9 4G LTE today after work at the AT&T store and need to know if this current crop of custom roms is usable on this particular 8.9 model tablet? I was looking at it at the store and it said it was i99x or something and I don't see any of those numbers mentioned here in the forum for this device. Thanks in advance for your patience with the post here and for any info provided. Very cool device and much different than my Samsung InFuse phone running GB.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Silverexp:
All I’ve seen is WiFi roms, no roms for 3G/LTE roms for GSM. It’s a SGH-I957 model. I’m still playing with the idea of getting one, since you get the Galaxy Skyrocket free too with a purchase. No root either yet for this thing …
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] shansmi:
I picked up a SR on launch day. 2 days ago I piked up this tab. They credited me the price of the SR towards the tab! sweet deal!.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Blackberrynomore:
That is why I decided to get the 8.9 Tab. I wanted a Skyrocket but I just got an Infuse a couple months back so I couldn't upgrade for the Skyrocket. So I figured I would get the Tab and Skyrocket and replace my Infuse with the SR. I have a client who is footing the bill and we are going to use one of the inactive corporate phones to do the swap with my phone or else it couldn't be done. I guess I will just get it anyway and wait till some development comes down the pike. It is a sweet form factor and I think I will enjoy it.

Infused with Android DNA
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Blackberrynomore:
I would really love to be able to get root on my new 8.9 4g LTE Tablet. Is there any devs out there willing to take a look at it for me or am I left out in the cold?

This thing is ridiculously slow and laggy i sure hope someone develops for it or i am going to ditch it quick. My Skyrocket is so much more speedy than this tablet. I like it but it needs help bad.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] orlandoxpolice:
Not sure what lag you are talking about
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Blackberrynomore:
I have experienced serious lagging scrolling screens changing apps etc. I also have had it completely lock up on me several times and had to hold the power button until it rebooted this thing is really a disappointment so far. Hopefully there will be some updates coming down the road soon.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Kellindinda:
I'm having the same issues. I just picked this up yesterday with the skyrocket deal. Coming from using a Motorola Xoom which has very little bloatware, I'm terribly disappointed with this tablet. I love the form factor, but it's slow as molasses. Hopefully someone with knowledge will take the time to find a solution and share it with those of us who have no idea what to do :-)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] poisike:
Does it have lag/stuttering when scrolling homescreens in portrait?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] Kellindinda:
It pretty much lags doing anything from opening apps to Widgets or sliding through the screens. I've also has it completely freeze several times and I've only had it over the weekend. The LTE version from AT&T has tons of bloatware.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
When this morning when I unplugged my phone from my USB charger, the "lightning bold" charging icon stayed on. Reboot, still stays. Any ideas?

Edit: After battery pull, same problem. Also, immediately after boot, it flickers back and forth between the charging/not charging battery icons. Again, this is with NO charger connected. WTF.

Edit 2: Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkGrcumdyEg (sorry the 360p version is upside down, please watch the 480p version).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Bump, anyone have any ideas?

Every time the icon turns on, it wakes my phone up and turns the screen on. It's really killing my battery. This is bad :/
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radi0chik:
was it just this morning? every morning? what happens if you plug a different cable in? a car charger or something? If it still persists after all that, I'd say take it back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
This happens when it's not plugged in.

I ordered from UK, not sure how "just take it back" works in this situation :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radi0chik:
ok it sounded like it started this morning AFTER you unplugged it. Thats why I suggested plugging it into another cord and see if that changes anything.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Yeah, it started this morning, but I've plugged it in and unplugged it and tried everything a thousand times since then. I've factory reset, I flashed stock images with fastboot, etc.

I've made a video of the problem and I'll post the link after it finishes uploading.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
I've added a video to the OP.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] radi0chik:
wow so the whole screen does that too not just the tiny battery icon on the top bar? It's blurry what the charging screen says. I don't know what to tell you :( and you said you'd done battery pulls. maybe leave the batt out a half hour see what happens? :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Yes, the phone is behaving as if a charging cable is being plugged in and then removed, over and over and over.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
Basically you have 2 simple options:

1) Do a factory reset wiping the whole phone

2) exchange it for a new one

If 1 doesn't work, then your problem is hardware related which means you should just exchange it - even if it is a PITA sending it back to the UK.

edit: looks like you may have already tried factory resetting it as it looks like the initial setup screen is popping up in your video. If that's the case, I'd return if for either a new one, or deal with the RMA process...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Yup, did a factory reset, re-flashed stock images, nada.

Currently, I just finished charging the phone to 100% while powered off, then removed the battery, and I'm letting it sit for a while. I'll pop it back in in a few and see what happens.

What a pain. :mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
Well that didn't work either. Now the charging icon and "USB connected" indicators just stay on all the time.

I can only assume this is a faulty USB female port. Any DIY tricks? Or should I just send it back to England and wait it out?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Luxferro:
Maybe it's got some metal bits shorting out some contacts in the port or something. Other then blowing out the usb port on it with some compressed air, I wouldn't do much else.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] matt2053:
I thought I would try one more time to erase everything and flash stock images from Google.

When I do this:

fastboot erase data

I get this;

erasing 'data'... FAILED (remote: Unknown Partition)

Also if I try to format /data in ClockworkMod recovery, I get:

OK well I'm bumping this one last time in case anyone has any other ideas this morning.

You should link up RaidZero's awesome recovery have been using it for a while now, its great. He also has a NS4G

http://rootzwiki.com/topic/7309-recovery-rzrecovery-many-devices/
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
oh, i think i know what you're saying. sometimes, depending on when you flash a new recovery, rom manager won't see it as being compatible. the solution in my experience has been to flash cwm via rom manager first and then update to j_r0dd's version via recovery. should be good to go after that. (just double checked for you too...twice.)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Wow that recovery looks robust. So many features I thought it was a rom Lol. :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
Added to the OP. Thanks for the recommendation. Didn't even know it existed. And...he's a NS4G guy too apparently. I guess he just would prefer to manage all support through a single "Many Devices" thread.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Hey snandlal is this flashable? Or should I use flash_image_by GUI.?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
i updated the OP with this updated recovery. thanks snandlal. however, there was an issue with the way it was packaged (you nested a folder within another folder). i fixed it in the OP though. works as expected.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
Question... can I use rom manager to backup and restore with this recovery?

sent from my amazing nexus s 4g
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
nope. it's not cwm compatible as it creates a separate directory for backups at:

/sdcard/nandroid

because of this, it seemed like it might be amon ra compatible, but the structure is different since in amon ra, backups are stored as follows:

/sdcard/nandroid/DEVICE_SERIAL_NUMBER/

raidzero's doesn't store them in a serial numbered folder.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Thanks....
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
So by going into SD/nandroid I could rename them right? Noobie so bare with me

sent from my amazing nexus s 4g
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
yeah, you should be able to as you can with any recovery i've ever tried, but i haven't yet tried this with raidzero's recovery.

Good. I've been slackin lately

Kind of tricky CWM use a folder self named with the back up folder inside of that. Tricky but not impossible. GL
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] cheapskate88:
I've been looking for alternative recoveries for the NS4g. Appreciate the compilation :)
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
I choose cwm 5.0.2.7 and it works great.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
I chose RAZR recovery and I love it

sent from my amazing nexus s 4g
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
To be honest I was a little nervous haha on choosing razr cause it seemed too advanced for my DOS system I call a brain.

I might flash it in the middle of the night and get acquainted.

But right on man...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
i might take another look, but yes... a little intimidating. i also tested the backup compression option. took FOREVER but cut down on the size of my backup by almost 40%. so, if that's important to you, it's worth a try.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
40% that pretty good.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
looks like rzrecovery is getting updated soon
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] info[]box1:
Yup 2.1.4 I'm going for it...
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] fergie716:
I like it alot.. Compression works well, just a little slow but worth it

Attached is a zip to be flashed for RZRecovery only! It will add a fix_permissions menu under /Extras Menu/plugins/Fix Permissions

Flash in RZRecovey. Tested on 2.1.3
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
Cool. Thanks for the heads up. I've updated the OP. I'll also add this plugin to the 2nd post.

EDIT:

Actually... is the plugin really necessary? The changelog states that Fix Permissions was added in version 2.1.3. I'll flash and take a look.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] paul96:
U should add the twrp recovery
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
twrp recovery added to the op. i hadn't included it because i hadn't tried it myself and thought it was still very much a beta project. looks pretty good though. thanks for the suggestion.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
OP updated with the latest TWRP. Also, while I've been removing prior recoveries, let me know if you'd like any re-upped (like RaidZero's previous version for example...since he's yet to officially release the one in the OP).
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
Updated the OP with the latest RZR Recovery version 2.1.4. Please note that it has not been officially released, though the images are still available/hosted on RaidZero's site. So, you can treat 2.1.4 as a beta release. ClockworkMod backup restore has been added and so personally, I'm using 2.1.4. Version 2.1.3 is still listed on the OP.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] solesonfire:
So now I can restore my cwm backups thru RZR?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
That's the idea. I just tried it and it didn't work for me. It froze while unpacking the tar file. Never wiped the phone, thankfully, and so I was still able to boot up into my current ROM. Post back with your results if you decide to give it a shot.
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Tahde:
Was running TWRP 2.0 for a while and just yesterday it would not let me do any backups. Tried some of the recoveries above and was still not able to backup anything.

E: failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory)

E: unable to stat '/sd-ext/.'

Some of the other recoveries didnt get specific (as I probably didnt look where I should have) on the error. So I'm assuming it would be the same type of error that I was getting with TWRP. Everything else works fine. Its just doing a backup.

From what I can gather, recoveries work on GB with no issues at all now. But once I flash over a ICS rom (been really using Ahgomez) and try to do a backup. It fails on me. Only recovery that is working for me right now is CWM 5.0.2.3. It does backups with no issues at all. Got everything setup how I like it. Want to try again, but I have a feeling that I'm going to get the same outcome.

I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas?
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
I reported a bug with raidzero via the rootzwiki forum a few days ago. Looks like if a rom's build.prop file was created within windows, his recovery gets hung up during backup. I too am running Gomez's rom, and his is one where the build.prop file has windows / dos carriage returns in the file rather than unix / Linux carriage returns. If you'd like, I can post my build.prop from gomez 1.3.1 which I saved as unix format using WinMerge (there's an option to do that in the file menu).
[Nexus S 4G Android Development] Tahde:
Ok. Not sure if I'm inclined enough to make the right changes, but I sure can take a look and see if its something doable. lol.

If I can get away with using the recovery (CWM 5.0.2.3) that I'm using now, I dont mind sticking with it. I honestly was just using the TWRP for its "cool" factor, but knowing it did the job well also.

Whats weird is my wife is running the exact same thing (ROM/Kernel) and I have TWRP on hers. She's having 0 issues as I was when I had it. Only difference between it is that she's running Nova Launcher.

Thanks for your help!

[Nexus S 4G Android Development] mercado79:
I just added some info to the OP, but figured I'd share here too. As of earlier this month, TeamWin announced that TWRP was being "abandoned" and that they hoped some of their work would be incorporated into ClockworkMod Recovery.

http://www.teamw.in/blog/15

I'm not sure how long Koush has been working on a touch-based recovery, but it does seem like work developed for TWRP wasn't a complete loss if it made Koush's latest release possible (or at least quickened its development/release).
