So you have the Revolutionary HBOOT 6.13 installed, correct? That is what is preventing the OTA from installing correctly. You need to reinstall CLockworkMod recovery and restore your backup or install a rooted Rom.

Hi!

I have the same problem, az Hiaken_Ace has, after I updated my phone, I get stucked on the green HTC logo screen.

My phone is S-ON, it is non-rooted, it run Sense 3.0 with Android 2.3.5. I have tried factory reset with SD card, and without is. Any ideas, how could I revive my phone?

I have also the same problem, after I updated my phone, I get stucked on the green HTC logo screen.

There are even more Guys in the android-hilfe.de forum reporting this.

Seriously guys, who told you to install this ota? Unless you receive it on your phone, don't install it.

We need more info from the guys who semi-bricked their phones (stucked:rolleyes: on the green HTC logo)

Do you have an unlocked bootloader, do you have HTC drivers and adb / fastboot installed on PC, are you still covered by warranty, did you see any errors when the ota was installing, do you have revolutionary hboot installed, can you or do you know how to enter hboot or recovery, are you rooted and finally do you have stock or custom recovery?

Put it all in one post, maybe we can help.
[HTC Incredible S] kukker:
Ok, I received a notification from the phone, that I can download an update. My phone has/had official ROM, and this was an official update, and I thought, that official updates are secure.

My bootloader is locked. I have adb, and htc drivers, my phone is covered by warranty(but if it is possible, I don't want to use it, because in Hungary I have to pay the post fees, and it takes "a lot of time" to get the phone back).

I was working while my phone was updating, and did not watch the full time my phone, but have not noticed any errors.

My phone was NOT rooted, it has S-ON, and I used official rom, as I said before. And unfortunatelly I do not have any recovery images.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
@kukker: OK, so in your case you were running the official stock 3.08.405.3 (Android 2.3.5/Sense 3.0) ROM and you were notified about the 3.11.405.1 OTA and applied it and now hangs on the HTC screen, right? What I would suggest you try to do is run the official 3.08.405.3 RUU and see if it will bring your phone back to life. There is a 50 - 50 chance this will work. If the OTA has updated the main-version, then the RUU will probably fail because you are attempting to flash an older version.

If the 3.08.405.3 RUU doesn't work, then you will have to try and use the downgrade tool and hope that it will be able to overwrite the main-version so that you can flash an older RUU.
[HTC Incredible S] kingofsurf:
guy who semi-bricked their phone

No, i I received also a notification that there is an update. i downloaded it, than it says Battery is under 30% an to install the update later. So i loaded the battery a little while and started the Install again (still connect to the Power cord). It runs thru the Install normally and then it reboots ...up to the bright HTC Screen. After half an hour i took off the battery to stop this.

I restarted it many times..always the same. I started Power/V-Down and tried all options like factory reset and recovery...

I changed even the SD-Card but it doesnt help. I download the Update manually to the SD Card but i wouldnt recognize it.

As i connect it via USB to the PC and tried to start a RUU.exe it broke up.

The Phone is just 2 Month old and i changed nothing like unlock bootloader, root or anything important

I have HTC drivers and adb / fastboot installed on PC.

Its still covered by warranty and i would like to keep it.

I didnt see any errors when the ota was installing, exept the low battery thing No revolutionary hboot installed, everything stock.
[HTC Incredible S] tpbklake:
In your case I would call HTC and complain that the latest OTA has rendered your phone unusable.
[HTC Incredible S] boytoy:
I read in russian forum 4pda about this problem (phone stuck on HTC logo after latest FOTA update), and solution is to unlock bootloader in htcdev.com,

then your phone will boot normally.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
While this may be a solution, its potentially warranty voiding. For those that still have a warranty on their phone, I wouldn't advise doing this as it is a HTC fault as disappointing as that is. Very poor form from HTC...

If the method that tpbklake has provided has not worked for all of you or its not possible for some reason to download the ruu we need to find another way to get you all back up and running.

This might be able to be fixed from stock recovery depending what options are available to us. I have only booted into that one time for testing the tacoroot exploit, so I need someone to give me a list of functions available.

Boot into hboot the regular way (vol down + power) and select recovery in hboot menu. In recovery, press vol up + power and a menu should appear, I'm hoping for some clear cache option.
[HTC Incredible S] Hiken_Ace:
no no i have downgraded my hboot long ago ... so its the 2.0 hboot
[HTC Incredible S] kukker:
After reading, that I am not the only one, who "bricked" the phone via official OTA update, I contacted the HTC support center. They suggested to make a factory reset - but in vain. Then they suggested to commit a Factory Reset, but this time without SIM, and SD card. After trying this, and knowing, that it won't help, the suggested to contact the shop, where I bought the phone, or contact the official repair center in my country, and they gave me a phone number, an a mail address to contact with.

I have tried the recovery mode. There are 4 options in the phone:

Reboot system now

Apply update from sdcard <- it did not help to me

Wipe data/factory reset <- it sais, that Can't open /cache/recovery/command; Formatting /data...; Can't open /data/cwpkg.zip, /data/cw.prop, /cache/cwpkg.zip, and /cahce/cw.prop; Formatting /chache...; Data wipe complete. After this I restart my phone, but get stuck on HTC screen...

Wipe cache partiton <- have not tried it yet

After getting home, I'll try RUU 3.08.405.3.

P.S.: I have a theory. Is it possible, that the bricking is related to the leap-day? Microsoft had an issue about the febr.29 day, and it was that day I updated my phone.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Try the wipe cache option
[HTC Incredible S] kukker:
Unfortunatelly remained the same: stucked on HTC screen :/ But thanks for the idea!
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Need to get some info about your phone.

You need htc drivers and fastboot on your pc.

With the phone plugged into the pc via usb and in hboot fastboot mode enter the following command in cmd window

fastboot getvar all

delete info such as imei and serial no. and paste here.

[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
It will not work as the version main is already higher than the rom you wish to downgrade to.

Edit: have you tied running the ota again? If you do not have the file on your sdcard, download the one posted at the start of he thread. Extract the contents to your PC and rename the "OTA_VIVO_SENSE30_S_HTC_WWE_3.11.405.1-3.08.405.3.zip" to "update.zip" and copy to sdcard root. Enter recovery mode and bring up the menu with vol up + power and "apply update from sdcard"
[HTC Incredible S] kukker:
I donwloaded the rar, and extracted the content to the sd card root folder. Renamed the OTA_VIVO... file to update.zip.

After entering hboot, I can see 2 progress bar appearing on the top right corner. After entering Recovery menu, I can read 'Can't open /cache/recovery/command' string. After choosing Update from SD card, - Invalid operation - string appears, the phone restarts, ang hangs on the HTC logo screen, just like before :(
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
This is why i explicitly told you to extract the rar on your pc first. It contains a pg32img.zip which is scanned and attempts to install upon starting hboot, but as you are s-on, it fails.

This is normal and can be ignored

Please verify that the file is named update.zip and not update.zip.zip or simply update. If still not working, try formatting your sdcard.

If, after doing all these thing, the update still does not work, I cannot help you as it is beyond the scope of my knowledge. Either unlock your bootloader from htcdev.com, contact HTC to service your phone, or wait for HTC to release a fix.
[HTC Incredible S] kingofsurf:
Same here, didnt work.

After entering hboot it analyses PG32IMG.zip and it says something like" no image or wrong image"(first blue then golden progress bar) but then nothing.

If i go to recovery, first teh green update sign is visible but after some seconds the red Attention sign appears.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
Read above post.

In recovery mode, press vol up + power to bring up the menu.
[HTC Incredible S] kingofsurf:
Oh, okay, but first i start with Vol Down and the the cursor stays om hboot, one down is recovery. Right? If i go there first the green update sign is visible but after some seconds the red Attention sign appears.Then pressing VUp an Power. There are some options and E:cant open/ cache/ recovery/ command. When i go to update.zip its an error something like reboot-oem00
[HTC Incredible S] kukker:
I pressed Volume Up + power keysafter the red atention sign. Then 4 menu will appear, and there You should choose the updte from sd card.

@Nonverbose: Maybe we misunderstood eachother. I downloaded the rar file, and extracted on PC, and only after that I copied it to my SD card. Sorry for that, my bad.

And a few days ago I contacted HTC support, but they suggested to make a Factory Reset with, and without SD, and SIM cards, but in vain. I think on monday I will ship back my phone to the shop where I bought it, after warranty period my first thing will be unlocking, and rooting my phone.
[HTC Incredible S] incrediblealex:
Did you ever find out what the problem was? Could it be a fried emmc chip from removing the battery as it gives the same error in recovery.
[HTC Incredible S] Nonverbose:
I'm reasonably certain the issue came from trying to run ota on an unlocked bootloader, as the solution was to unlock the bootloader from HTC. But as there were users telling me that they were stock I was trying to find another solution because it would be unfair to void a warranty if it turned out to be a fault of HTC.

Turns out it difficult to fault find a phone issue blindly though, especially when people are in a bit of a panic and just want their precious toy up and running again whatever the cost. Understandable though...

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henrylar:
If one could get a digital signal out of the phone one could create an amazing sound quality by linking it with a D/A converter that also contains an amplifier, like Fiio E17, that I have just bought.

Here is a link that claims it to work for CyanogenMod7 nightlies, with an OTG cable, see http://www.head-fi.org/t/571944/ot-digital-out-on-android-phone/15. I think that DHD should be able to do the OTG trick, right?

I do not have an USB OTG cable yet, but I can get one.

Does anyone have experience with OTG on DHD? And have anyone tried to take out a digital sound signal?

The potential for real quality sound will be huge, so I will be very interested in this if it could work, and I assume that I would not be the only HIFI freak here? Which ROM should I try?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samtheman:
Hi henrylar

I have the Fiio E17 and an OTG USB cable. I tried the latest Cyanogen nightly build and Icecreamsandwich roms and no dice with getting a digital signal from my DHD to the E17.

I'm not so sure about your first question, so I'll answer the rest.

2- Yes you can, hold the word and it will show a little mouse (the one you see in Microsoft Word when u point at text. Then you can move that little mouse to where you want it.

3- Yes, you can disable auto correct, simply go.. Settings / Keyboard / typing settings (its a button) .. then tap English (or whatever you have it set to) ... Finally, uncheck 'Correct misspelled words'.

Hope I helped.

By the way, have you ever tried Android? I don't get how they're alike.. They both have 'smartphone' features, thats all.

[HTC EVO 3D] Deltatristar500:
Hi, I have noticed that my little GPS satellite icon stays on and is draining the battery constantly after a hard reboot. Does anyone know why this is? I have not done anything out of the ordinary and its never done this. I know it would come on once in a while and then turn off, but this time its on all the time. Im on the latest OTA update on the HTC EVO 3D unrooted.

UPDATE...I just shut down my phone and turned it back on, and now seems fine, dont know why with a reboot instead of a shutdown the GPS goes crazy.
[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
A lot of the time apps will request gps location and won't shut it off until it finds a fix. If you're in a location where gps signal sucks, that could be the culprit. I discovered Facebook does this for example.

I have been using LBE Privacy Guard to monitor what apps are trying to do so I can deny or allow them to access certain permissions. Of course, by default a lot of them don't prompt so def check through your apps from within LBE. Now, LBE does claim to require root, but I don't think it would hurt to at least try. The active protection service is the only option that i've seen ask for super user permission. Might be worth checking out, but not sure how well it'll work for unrooted phones.

Well, it is in an xml file. You'll first need to decompile the framework-res.apk then open the relevant xml file. Can't remember off hand what it's called, but it's something like horizontal_progress and vertical_progress, most probably in one of the layout folders. You'll then need to find the colour values and changes them to what you want.

use a hex colour chart to help you if you dont have any image editing software, here's an online chart

http://www.colorschemer.com/online.html

When editing the code you need to follow the ARGB layout:

A=Alpha(transparency/Opacity) 00=transparent ff=opaque

R=Red

G=Green

B=Blue

Edit the parts highlighted in red, there are 3 lines this is just one:
