[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joekp:
Ok this is a long story so hear me out I will try to be as detailed as possible. I have a htc desire cdma and my carrier is nex-tech wireless.

So it started with wanting to root my phone and I downloaded revoked and ran it with no problem then ran revolutionary with no problem. I then installed cyanogen and it worked fine. I then wanted to install ics and I needed to have a stock hboot so I found this (link) (shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=android&model=Bravo_C) and ran it all went fine until it finished. I turned on my phone it vibrated but screen doesn’t turn on. So then I knew that I soft bricked my phone. So then I search vigorously all over the forums looking for a solution. I realized I needed a gold card. so I took my sd and my dad's phone (same model) and did the steps needed to make a gold card. Was successful and I then I found this(link) (goo-inside.me/bravoc/ruu/RUU_Bravo_C_Froyo_USCC_WWE_2.11.573.5_Radio_2.15.00.11.16_release_168495_signed.exe) and downloaded it. it worked until it stopped and had a black screen. I removed the usb and screen turned white and said this:

BRAVOC DVT2 SHIP S-ON
HBOOT-1.06.0000
MICROP-051e
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-2.15.00.11.16
Dec 22 2010, 16:16:39

RUU (in an orange box)

It has two triangles in the bottom corner

And I though well it downgraded to stock hboort

I was wrong.

So I ran fastbootcommander and it printed off

SPL/hboot version: 1.06.0000.
Radio version: 2.15.00.11.16.
Main software version: 2.13.557.0.
cid: utsi_015.
cpld: none.
product: bravoc.
mid: pb9940000.
security: on.
build-mode: ship.

so I thought I needed to run the ruu again and all good and it said 131 wrong cid
