Here's the situation, I tried to flash a cm9 rom (i like ics ) and i downloaded and copied it over, flashed it and my evo wouldn't even charge or turn on. I didn't realize that the "rom" was 8mb? I didn't even check and now I have a hard brick. It wont even go into bootloader (back screen), BUT somehow when I plug it in to my computer fastboot drivers installed?? Can I still save my poor evo? I feel like an idiot to the max lol. PLEASE HELP!
Can you provide a link to the file you downloaded? Try leaving your phone on the charger for an extended period of time. Does the charging light come on at all?

Unfortunately no, nothing happens. In fastboot i can still flash a recovery and do basic commands. I believe that the boot partition is corrupted. Here's a link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1683384
Btw, I enter fastboot by holding volume up + power. I was wondering if I can use this toolkit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940512
Anyone? Please?
Are you S-off by chance? You say you can flash recovery but can you get into recovery? Also, what is your Hboot version & your radio (baseband) version?

I was S-OFF DirtyRacun. I can't get into recovery because the phone won't do anything except when I hold power + volume up which gets me to fastboot WITH SCREEN OFF. My device comes up as t<3 fastboot. I have ubuntu installed and i know the basics of the terminal. I have no idea what my hboot is again screen off. I think it was 1.19 not sure. I'll try to use the linux toolkit in my previous post unless you recommend another way.
You can try running VipeRUU from the bootloader, but if your screen isn't displaying, I'd be hesitant. Take a look at the link below.

I did run the tool, but since bootloader isnt displaying anything it didn't work. I'll try the linux toolkit and report back.

Here is what fastboot shows when I plug in the evo to my comp.
Mods please close thread. Thanks for helping but only way to fix my evo is through JTAG and I am not going to pay 60$, I'd rather sell it.
PM Zarboz. He'll JTAG it and all it should cost you is shipping to him & back.

What you do is start by downloading RSD If you have that, good, if not, I have attached it to this post.
Secondly, go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202666 and follow the instructions for flashing this SBF file.
Third, whatever you did, don't do it again.
Fourth (Optionally) Flash a ROM of your choice after unlocking the bootloader if you want a full ROM, again, follow the instructions of your chosen ROM.
Those steps should get you back up and running.
Doesn't seem to work. It comes up fail when I try uploading the sbf file.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
It comes up as failed? Did you flash it via RSD? And make sure you were in RSD mode on your phone? Not in fastboot.

I think your battery is too low according to your photo. Try connect charger, take out battery and put it back. It will show battery percentage.

You should be able to charge the battery even with the phone off. Then try to boot it.

Fix
Sorry that I didn't reply any sooner. This is what I did, since when the phone is with that problem won't charge the battery nor with charger nor with USB, so, I ran out of juice... I had to get an universal charger to charge the battery and then I flash it with RSD. I've flashed this file 154_5 sbf, once I got in, I flashed the updated one. It worked pretty good.
You can check the original thread here
Thanks for helping but unfortunately the phone turned out to be dead. After charging the phone, it didn't turn on and I had no choice but to get another one. I must have fried the phone or something.

i have fail to boot 2 too.
i can fix it.
1.put micro usb to phone and charger.
lcd will show "failed to boot 2 " "starting RSD mode"
2.and up sbf from RSD. you can recover phone.
good luck..
can confirm
what you need to do is to open ur cmd and log in ur adb as if you were going to flash CWM.Instead,do this ,moto-fastboot reboot and your phone will show RSD mode and bam your good to go.Thanks ceuticco good work
what if it fails to flash, gets to 100% then says Fail?
What are you trying to flash?Or you trying to unlock it? If your using pudding sbf file then its normal for it to say fail just pull the battery and reboot the phone and it should say unlock in the top left corner.

Since you can't seem to be able to search I'll just re-post the entire first post just for you. Forbid you actually have to look for it. I even enhanced a critical piece of information for those that can't find it for whatever reason.
Hi,
this is a development & collection Thread. The PH85IMG.ZIP files can be flashed through SD-CARD in HBoot Mode. This works only for S-OFF users. If you don't have S-OFF you cannot use the files.
There is no way to get S-OFF on a normal S-ON phone now.
Pulled Hboots:
Eng Hboot 1.90.2005: http://xda.niksie.nl/index.php?option=com_jdownloads&Itemid=0&view=viewcategory&catid=213
MD5:2b4c54a53af0d9f6e314723be3a076b4
If you want to help, check if you have S-ON or S-OFF. Turn off the phone, reboot with the volume button held down, and check at the top of the white screen if it says "SHIP S-ON", "SHIP S-OFF" or "ENG S-OFF". S-ON is stock and not helpful, SHIP S-OFF could be useful, the really helpful ones are ENG S-OFF. Please don't post asking if you can help if you have S-ON.
HOW TO DUMP YOUR HBOOT (please remember this is only interesting if you already have S-OFF)
1. Download ADB: http://www.mediafire.com/?5d0v316g9bg97
2. Extract the contents of the zip to C:\
3. Run the commands below:
Code:
cd c:\adb
adb shell
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p12 of=/sdcard/hboot.img
Note: If your device is not detected, download and install HTC Sync.
4. Connect your phone in USB Mode, copy the hboot.img file from your SD card and upload it to Multiupload.
How To Flash Eng Hboot:
1. Comming soon

Do you have your phone turned on? If I remember correctly you need the phone booted into the rom to push the update.
Well, did you verify that the cable was plugged into your phone? And that the other end was plugged into your computer? Lol, jk.
I haven't followed that guide, but did you try putting your phone in fastboot mode to run the ruu? If not, try that. Just boot to bootloader, then select fastboot. Plug your phone in, and verify that it says fastboot usb on your screen. Then try the ruu again, it should work. Good luck

First I would suggest that you get S-Off. You should be able to complete that using revolutionary.
Once that is done let me know. Go to revolutionary.io and follow the instructions there to obtain s-off.

There is an extra guide for this.

Dunno if there is a difference of rooting cdma version u have.
Maybe u`r hboot is corrupted, but don`t panic yet... with upgrade - downgrade, u should fix it. (in theory)
If u`r screen gets black... ye, it`s bricked
U`r still far away from it? )
revolutionary not work either.
waiting for device...
The good news for you is that you have HBoot 1.40 so you only need to root or to restore via RUU

1. Is your phone anyhow booting into Android OS succesfully?
2. If - YES - which Android: GB or ICS? And what carrier or custom ROM?
3. What fails to work in the current Android ROM? Is everything fully functional and operational in current Android?
4. What else have you done to your handheld - what may relate to the problem?
This t-mobile i do with stock rom and rename PH85IMG put in sd card for update .
any solutio nfc fail - pu ????
thank
Put the back cover on when it's flashing. Maybe the NFC contacts need to be touching.
Generally, Fail-PU errors mean that the internal chip, the eMMC chips, has failed. Since you mentioned that you have tried many different RUUs and they all failed, I'm leaning towards a failed eMMC chip.
Essentially, it means your phone is now borked.
However, if your phone has S-OFF, you can try extracting the ZIP file and then removing the NFC file, then re-zip it. After that, put it in your phone and flash it as normal. If you remove the nfc file, it won't flash the NFC part of the update. I don't know if this would work, but you can try.
thankkkkkkkkk for reply .
