That's just the bootloader so you could try flashing a rom. Do you have a custom recovery installed?

hi,
i don't really know what or how.
can you instruct me step by step?
the thing is that i was trying to install this file : HTC_Aria_for_ATT_Android_2.2_ROM_Update.exe and in the middle of the process my USB cable disconnected, and the phone doesn't boot since.
it just show me a white screen with the text i wrote up there (and it's ruu, not rru, obviously) when i turn it on, and it doesn't go to the hard reset menu even if i hold the down-volume button when i press the power button.

You could just boot into fastboot (choose "fastboot" from the list in that menu) and re-run the RUU (Rom Update Utility).
nurief, you may need to pull out the battery to get out of the RUU screen. After putting the battery back in, hold down the trackpad button (that button below the screen) and press the power button, then release the trackpad button. It will say FASTBOOT if it worked correctly.
The RUU should be able to detect the phone while it's on the FASTBOOT screen.

Make sure you keep holding down the trackpad button until the screen turns on, then let go. Sorry, I should have been more clear about that.
If it still doesn't work, try the same process but this time hold down volume down button instead of the trackpad button. It should say HBOOT in blue near the top of the screen. Then after about 10 seconds, press power button once more. It should say FASTBOOT in red near the top now.
If either way works, then connect the USB cable to your computer then start up the RUU again and it should work fine.

it doesn't work.
i tried everything. turning on when the USB is plugged and unplugged, fastboot by holdin the trackpad and down-volume button...
when i plug the USB and unplug it the phone shows me the white screen with the text in to of this thread, and the "RUU" glows in orange background (like the fastboot) but i cannot choose the option even if i press the I/O button.
any ideas?
thanks.
Go to the IRC channel #liberatedAria on Freenode and ask if someone knows what to do. If no one is around, try again later.
If you don't know how to get on IRC, you can access it via web: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#liberatedAria
Edit: From searching around online it seems like making a gold card might fix your problem.

thanks a lot, they helped me there to bring the device back to life.
but the old problem is still here.
the navigation touch keys (home, menu, back and search) doesn't respont to any human contact.
i figured out that if i touch the top of the screen - the backlight ot the keys turns on, but nothing more than that.
* the chat manager told me that he can't help me with that because they deal with rooted phones only, and i don't think mine is...

Hello,
I woke up this morning, tried to turn on the screen on my Hero, and nothing came up.
Ok, so i thought id take the battery out, put it back in, try again.
The Hero vibrates, shows the 'HERO' logo, then turns off...
I have not flashed any custom roms from here, all that has been done is the phone has been updated to the latest HTC ROM they offered.
As a quick note, when i take the battery out, and put it back in, then plug into the PC or wall socket, the light does come on at the top (green).
Any help as to why this has happened? And how to get it working again.
I have searched on the forums for information, but could not find/understand what to do
Thanks, Adam
EDIT: Ok i found out hoe to put the phone into recovery, then i flashed the HTC ROM again using thier RUU. It flashed fine, then rebooted, and again does not go past the HERO screen, just turns off
any help would be appreciated please? i have tried flashing using the RUU twice and still wont get past the HERO screen, screen just blacks out
EDIT: 79 views and no replies? any help would be appreciated, the amount of talent on here im sure someone could give me a hand? pleeeeease
That's a real shame.
It seems like it's hanging on a internal memory problem (the same reason why somebody has to wipe before flashing)
i got this from an other site maybe it could be of any help for you
According to the official helpdesk of HTC (for me in France), you had to:
1/ Switch off the phone (either removing the battery or shutting down by holding the "end call" button for few seconds
2/ While being switched off, hold the "home" (house) and "back" (the arrow in the lower right corner)
3/ Hit briefly the "end call" button" while still holding the "home" and "back" buttons.
4/ Release the "home" and "back" button, a white screen containing technical information should appear, with a red message asking for hitting the "menu" button.
5/ Hit the "menu button", the Hero will now boot with factory settings.
Factory settings means that every information stored on the ROM (NOT your SD memory card)

ok i have tried that a few times, but this has not worked, it simply just reboots and the HERO logo appears, then goes black
when you installed a new rom did you flash the radio too? i find the radio sometimes gives problems. can you not try another rom to flash?
no, i downloaded the ROM from the HTC website, link below. This ROM has been running fine until this morning when i tried to turn the screen on.

Hi All,
I have flashed EUViewPad 7 based on Stock rom. installed SD Card Booster, CPU Master and etc.
The flash is fine since I managed to boot it and install several apps.
Until I needed to reboot the device since the hacker keyboard always forces to close. I rebooted it and poof I am in infinite boot animation without a way to remove the battery. afraid to fiddle just waited the battery to drain so I can test again(This happened on my O1. just removed the battery, put it back and its ok)
I have drained the battery after almost 8 hours of non stop boot animation. But this device won't turn on anymore. It just vibrates when I press the on button.
Tried opening the back(crap I have scratched the back covering. now it has large scratches ) but the battery is taped . My question folks is what is the possible solution to my problem aside from removing the battery(can't even get to clockword recovery)
Thanks
Not too sure about your device, but doesn't yours have a reset button like the viewpad?
Should be a small hole on the bottom edge right next to the microphone.
Try pressing that with a paperclip if you're having boot problems.
Anyway, if you've drained the battery completely, make sure to leave it charging for a little while. Too low battery voltage will make it unable to start. 15 mins or so should be more then enough.
Try starting with both volume buttons + power pressed. Keep holding it until you see "entering recovery mode."
Let me know if this gives any results.

Ahh I have that reset button beside the microphone hole. Will try this later on. Thanks for your help and for your custom rom
Uh oh... Tried pressing the small hall beside microphone, pressed on button. No luck. tried pressing that hole and on at the same time No luck again.
Is it possible that it will mess up the whole boot process due to boot animation loop??

I'm afraid and it sounded like, from your descriptions, that the boot process has been messed up .... so, what do you got to lose by trying to "wake" it up or at least respond to commands, right ?
Try holding the power button & use a small pin to press RESET - leave it connected to the power supply/charging unit.
Try holding both volume Up & Down key & use a small pin to press RESET
Try holding both volume Up & Down key along with the Power button at the same time, and press RESET (you might want to get someone to help you to this)
Try holding the volume Down (left) key & Power button, and press RESET with a small pin.
Does any of these work in getting the screen to show life, be patient as you might have to hold it for 10 to 30 seconds before it cycle & restart/display the 3 birds ...
Chances are you will need to flash a stock ROM with the SULT3 utility, and then if successful, root it again & start over (carefully) - it might work or it might not even connect via usb at all .... worth a try, got nothing to lose at this point.
As a last resort, contact Cherry Mobile and get it repaired & sending it back to the shop .... check the warranty details in your locale, opening the rear case & exposing the battery, might or might not void your warranty coverage.
Hi Letiride,
I have tried the combinations you have specified but no avail. I can't boot this so my PC with correct drivers cannot even recognize i plugged this.
Is my Tablet already bricked?? I have bought this second hand so no warranty already.
Huhuhu Did I already have one of the "Vibrator" Android phone

Oh mine, no - if it won't power up or boot into Recovery or FTM mode, I'm afraid it's critical if not officially certified "paperweight". Try uninstalling your PC's usb drivers for the device, or use another computer & install SUTL3 utility from Viewsonic, and see if it can at least beep & signal some USB sequence loading the drivers.
Here's a link to Droid Explorer posted elsewhere in XDA (instead of pointing you to "Search" for it) Install it if you can get the yours powered on, but use it with care as it's a very "powerful" tool to explore all the hidden workings of the Android device(s).

My feeling is that the core image & boot file(s) were corrupted, damaged & overwritten, and it need to be reformatted & reflashed from a stock *.nb0 file, someone with adb might be able to - maybe, just maybe - rescue it.
Let's see if one of our fellow developers might have a better solution on where to begin b/c this is about as far as I can offer - well, you can always put on eBay for parts & hoped you didn't spend a lot as 2nd. hand.
Uhhh looks like i have no other choice but to have this repaired at service center and pay
I have been running CM10 on my EVO 4G LTE for a while now and haven't had any problems with it. Today though, out of no where, I was just sending a text, my phone froze and then restarted into the problem i stated in the title. I am on hboot version 1.12.
Like i said in the title, my phone is stuck on the white "HTC quietly brilliant" screen and is constantly vibrating. I can turn it off using the 10 second power button hold method, and if i hold down the volume rocker, it will show the hboot screen. Although it does show this screen, i can't select any of the options or move the cursor around using the volume rockers. I have been researching all afternoon and can't find any other problems like it. I have tried to adb, but i can't connect to the device. I have tried to use fastboot but i can't select it from the hboot menu. I have also tried the RUU and can't run it because it doesn't show my device is connected to the computer.
I also tried to just let it run out of battery and that didn't fix it either, but i am able to charge it.
I really don't know what else to try now. I don't think that I am bricked because I can still reach the hboot menu, but i don't know if there is any way to fix it with my current predicament... any ideas are welcome!
If this has happened to you before, please let me know how/if you fixed it.
So I've had my atrix unlocked for some time and have had Epinter's android 4.2.1 running on it smoothly. One day I tried to turn it on and it would only go to the boot logo screen (Motorola for stock) and i cant enter fastboot by using the volume keys. Further, the status light never lights up. This may have happened about a week after installing winterboard (port from iOS) probably a dumb choice, but.
can anyone advise if this is bricked, or a way i can get into fastboot and wipe the thing? any advice is appreciated
no input?! I just read somewhere i may be get it into AP fastboot by holding down both volume keys and power button. would love to get this phone working again!

So if you read something, why haven't you taken the initiative to try it out?
I have. And no luck. just says unlocked and will not toggle through options (fastboot etc). I included it in the post so it wasnt a lame 'bump' post. but thanks for your lame bump post.

Just so we are sure, you were holding down the 'Vol down' key while simultaneously pressing the 'Power' button and the text 'Fastboot' didn't show up, is that right?
Also, did the phone have CWM installed?
Yes. clockwork is installed. Yes I held volume down and power.
If you notice when you cold boot your phone a status light appears before the splash screen, and then turns off. Mine.. Doesnt ever turn on.
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app
^ Unfortunately, that does not sound good at all. Did you have the 'fastboot' options (and the other menu items) enabled before? Would you happen to know exactly what made it go away? Because without that support, there's very little you can do.
You could try charging the battery separately, but I'm not so sure. We might need to know what was done/flashed to get into this state.
Press power + volume up, does it do something?
yes I previously had the option to go into fastboot and the other options (bypass motoblur etc) neither volume up nor volume down get me to the other options - it only stays at saying 'unlocked'.
Maybe the volume keys are broken?
I did install Winterboard by Saurik and that may have caused this problem.
I have used a different battery/charged the battery separately and still nothing.
Sooo.... HDX 8.9 Saturn... Rooted using Kingroot, and Disabled OTA... and the home launcher... so I'm at the point where windows explorer opens up the kindle, but i don't see anything because I had a password on it, and ADB won't let me install a new launcher to fix my mistake... Does anyone know the fix to this or can point me to the right path?
I guess your one option is hard reset from stock recovery.
You need working adb. I suppose after the hard reset adb access will appear. But no guarantees.
Will that not disable adb anyways?
I said: "no guarantees". but I dont see other option anyway.
Can't get into recovery... What are the buttons to be holding... Vol Up + Power, right?
Just hold vol up immediately after power on.

Right I did that, got in, but it cycled out almost instantly... I tried a few more times, and left it alone.. now it won't respond to anything, not even when I plug it in... argh... Looks like its permanently dead.
i dont think that this is possible
try to leave it in charge or hold power button long, above 3 min.

just clarifying, hold vol up immediately after power on, without holding power button.
I left it on the charger overnight, and now it won't respond...
That is how I got into recovery, then it cycled out... I tried to go into recovery with only the volume up, and it wouldn't let me, and then this happened....
i'm going to hold off until Saturday, and leave it for about 5 hours on the charger... See if that does something
Yeah, so I left it in the charger overnight, and there is no response no matter what button combo I do....
so what the heck happened... I didn't do anything in recovery, unless it did something when it flashed out...
Well, I finally did the factory reset... I have the notification panel and the home buttons panel... Settings doesn't work, neither does wireless, and I have a flickering screen.
Amazon said they will send me a new one...
Search Partially works, except that I can't really turn on wifi to download an apk or turn on ADB using the option... wonder what would happen if I tried ADB now... not much point anyways since I'll get a new one, just loose root.... I can live with the new UI
