OK I left my phone and when I went back and got it the touch screen wasn't working. I think the idiot there tried to put the operating system on his desktop because he was asking me if I had a disc with one on it. .......
When I restart while pushing vol down, the screen shows:
***UNLOCKED***
JEWEL PUT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.09.0000
RADIO-1. 13. 11. 0830
OpenDSP-v31. 1. 0. 45. 0015
eMMC-boot

when I try to fastboot
the screen flashs this :
SD CHECKING
NO GIFT FILE.......
LOADING ....[PJ75DIAG.ZIP]
NO IMAGE!
LOADING...[PJ75DIAG.nbh]
NO IMAGE OR WRONG IMAGE!

NO IMAGE OR WRONG IMAGE!
Then goes back to the HBOOT screen with the options
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
FACTORY RESET
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
IMAGE CRC
SHOW BARCODE
I have cleared storage, recovery, factory reset, reload bootloader, reboot,.......[I didn't document what I did or did't do , what order......I didn't keep record of what I did so all I can say LESSON LEARNED] when the phone boots up I have the lock screen but the touch screen doesnt work, just the power, vol +, vol-
I tried using a RUU my pc recognizes the evo , checks the version which is 3. 17. 651. 4 asks if I want to update to 4. 13. 651. 4 goes to screen that says rebooting to bootloader right after that the usb connection is lost and the screen says waiting on bootloader..... the phone screen is black with silver HTC logo in middle, the computer pops up with message that the last USB device you connected to this computer has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize. The RUU shows error 171 no USB connection and exit button. The USB connection is gone, the black screen HTC logo stays until I restart the phone then I have lock screen no touch screen workings and usb connection working and message at top of screen usb file sharing . I did download minimal fastboot adb and when I tried to use it, I could get the phone to show fastboot usb, but it didnt have the usb connection active. It says usb file sharing, is USB debugging On? ADB does't find device.........I am unlocked S-on and can't discern what I did to do and in what order. I am getting that I need to get S-OFF, I tried RUMRUNNER but adb doesnt reconize device so.......If I try to fastboot with out the sd card in it, it doesn't seem to run bootloader, from HBOOT I choose fastboot, goes to screen, I choose bootloader and it just goes back to HBOOT screen. Please advise.
To run a RUU on your phone you will need to relock your bootloader. You need to install HTC Sync on your PC, which will install needed drivers to your computer. You can run a RUU from the bootloader while connected via Fastboot USB mode. For more info on RUU's and how to run one hit the top link in my sig and read the RUU section. That guide also includes a link to an article on how to set up ADB on your PC.

I read the RUU section, well I read all of it, so I understand that I have to relock bootloader to run a RUU so I installed HTC Sync and sdk. When I connect data cable, my pc opens file viewer and I can look at files on phone. When restart to HBOOT, I lose connection to pc with a message saying usb device has malfunctioned. When I fastboot and go down to reboot or reboot bootloader, I get fastboot usb, but when I try to use adb or fastboot they are waiting on device and never does find it.. I downloaded the usb driver didn't help. HTC Sync says to unlock screen and/or accept request which I can do neither since screen is nr. Is usb file sharing on and dev debug off why this is happening? If so what can I do?
USB file sharing and debugging mode won't matter when using Fastboot commands. Are you on Windows 7, 8, 8.1?
Windows 8.1
Windows 8.1
It's a driver issue with 8.1. Google it & you'll find a few guides to help you get your PC set up properly.

Hi
I have got a hero on the cheap currently using an iPhone boot looking to move over.
The hero has a custom rom on it, I would liketo try others. Holding down the home button and powering on just leaves it with the G2 boot screen. Holding down back button and power brings me into fastboot USB. When connected to the mac I am unable to see the device / list it using adb devices. If I boot into the os and connect to the mac not mounting the sdcard I can see the device with adv devices.
I'm trying to install a recovery image, this is proving dificult with not seeing the device in fastboot.
Has anyone any thought/suggestions on to resolve? Or point me in the direction of some threads to read.

use fastboot devices when in fastboot...
HI,
thanks for the reply, when in fastboot on the device I use fastboot which i have downloaded from the andriod site and put in my "tools" folder when trying to lash a recovery image it just comes back with a prompt saying "waiting for device"
thanks
just to make sure: you turn off the phone, then turn it on again while holding down BACK. this brings you to a screen with a white background and fastboot written somewhere. then you plug in the usb cable and execute "fastboot devices". if it still doesn't recognize your device then you got a problem somewhere, no idea where though. not sure if windows needs drivers or anything for fastboot to work correctly...
Yes that's correct.
Phone is recognize in everything other than when connected by fastboot.
Thanks for your input
Hi,
Yesterday my non-rooted (and non recovery-enabled) Hero received an update from HTC which required a reboot. Since then the reboot can't get any further than the HTC welcome screen. I have now exhausted all attempts to revive it. I have tried the following:
1. Reboot into FASTBOOT mode and select <MENU> to reset the device
-didn't do anything but reboot phone to hanging HTC screen
2. Connect USB cable to PC, and run the RUU update
r-recognises the phone is connected but crashes when tries to install image
3. Extract rom.zip from RUU file and load on SDcard as HEROIMG.zip
- booting into HBOOT mode, screen just says that HEROIMG.zip not found
4. Create a different HEROIMG.zip from one of the custom ROMs
-same outcome as in bullet 3
5. Try to connect to the phone using adb
-either when phone is in HBOOT mode or FASTBOOT USB mode, command "adb devices" just returns a blank, even though PC recognises phone is connected- other adb commands also fail with device not found
I'm now struggling for ideas of what to try next. Can't believe this is the death of the phone. Any advice?
Grateful for any ideas! Thanks
Hello,
I have an EVO 3D that was having screen issues.
When I took it to the Sprint store they said my warranty was void for having ViperRom on the device.
The device was HTC unlocked and had ViperRom redline.
I asked them to not note that down and that I would come back tomorrow with the device back to stock settings.
I made a mistake though when I manually flashed a boot.img using adb.
Now I just get a blank screen when the phone starts. I am not able to enable USB debugging or disable fastboot.
Now I can get into the bootloader by using power and the down key.
Since the phone is in Unlocked Mode and S-ON I can't update through ADB without USB debugging or fastboot disabled.
Also any PG86IMG.zip on the SD card doesn't ask for an update when the phone is HTC unlocked
There is no bootloader option to relock the phone either.
If anyone can please help I would greatly appreciate it. I'm supposed to go back there today 9/18/2012 at 4PM PST
Are you able to get into fastboot on your phone? If so what you have to do is relock your bootloader first. Fastboot oem lock is the command. Your phone should pick up the pg86img file and update.

I can't relock the bootloader using any PC tools. I can get into the bootloader menu by pressing Vol- but since the phone give a black screen when I try to booth I cannot enable USB debugging nor disable fastboot. I think this is what is preventing me from being able to connect to the phone via USB... I'm working on that assumption however I could be wrong.

I can see when I turn the phone on it's actually functioning, just with a black screen. It still makes noises for receiving text and so on I just can't enable usb debugging and disable fastboot blind. I wonder if I found my HDMI adapter if an external display would work. That would be weird.

UPDATE: I figured it out that just by selecting fastboot and THEN connecting the USB I could get USB connectivity!
I've had this phone for about a good 4 months now, was getting bored so i decide to unlock the bootloader, root, and install a new rom. Then i heard youwer able to activate the HTC logo button to wake and sleep your device with using a different kernel. tbaldens kernel v3.6. I have TWRP recovery installed with trickdroid as my rom.After i ran threw all the procedures to flash in Aroma installer. My phone won't turn on, when i connect it to my computer it shows up as a MTP device. When I do get it to power on its stuck at the "quietly brilliant" screen. cant get into recovery to restore from back up. PLEASE HELP! SOLDIER DEPLOYED!!!!!!!! dont have the means of sending it in. Any suggestion. Mac is my primary means of rooting. windows 8 drivers are kinda funky:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
If you have access to a Windows 7 PC, then download the RUU for your device. Next, relock your bootloader (fastboot oem lock) Next step, if you have bootloader access to your device, then you can go into fastboot (make sure it says fastboot USB). Open a command prompt, and type in fastboot oem rebootRUU. You're in RUU mode, where you can run the RUU and reset everything back to stock.

can i do this from a mac? and i can't get into fastboot because it wont go past the htc logo screen. it is identified as a MTP device in windows
Ahhhh thankfully i was able to get into my bootloader and flash my recovery! but thanks for the reply bro
Okay, so basically I am a HUGE idiot. My phone has been running the latest version of ParanoidAndroid and I decided that I wanted to try MIUI. I booted into TWRP v2.6.3 and wiped everything a couple of times before installing it, and I forgot to install the boot.img afterwards (it was s-on). So now everytime I turn the phone on, it is just always on the boot animation for an eternity, and my computer won't recognize my phone so I can't use fastboot or use an RUU. I am also unable to flash PH98IMG from the phone itself. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thank you very much in advance.

Take out the battery, put it back together, power on the phone while holding down the volume down key til you get the splash screen, that'll boot you to the bootloader...
No I understand that, but there's nothing I can do from the bootloader. Once I get there, I can either go to TWRP or choose Fastboot. When I choose fastboot, it will say Fastboot USB after connecting to my PC but it will still not show up or be recognized (and I have the drivers). My only other options are Recovery (TWRP), factory reset (also TWRP), clear storage, simlock, and image crc. All I need to do is load the boot.img file, but it appears to me I have no way of doing that now.

Being seen in fastboot has nothing to do with the ROM at all, you need to troubleshoot this from the PC end. When you start fastboot on the phone and connect to your PC you get nothing? Not even a connect sound?

I do get the connect and disconnect sounds. Whenever it makes the connect sound, it doesn't show up under "Devices with Removable Storage." When I heard the connect sound the first time I went to the cmd prompt and typed "fastboot devices" but it showed nothing.

It won't show up as a drive at all in Fastboot mode, to see if it is connected properly go to Device Manager and look for ADB Interface -> My HTC, if it isn't there then your drivers are not installed properly. Drivers come from HTC Sync, which can be downloaded here: http://www.htc.com/us/support/content.aspx?id=6196 once installed and the connections in Fastboot and ADB verified to be working, HTC Sync can be uninstalled (the drivers will stay).
When you run "fastboot devices" you get nothing? Or do you get something like "< waiting for device >" or literally nothing?
What version of Windows are you running, you need to be on Windows 7 or older? Running under Windows 8 is not recommended.

Ah, that may be my problem then, as I am on a Windows 8 computer. I will try all of this on a friends W7 computer in the next few hours and report back with the results. And when I did fastboot devices it literally said nothing and was ready for another command. Thanks for the help!

You can also use a live Linux CD like Ubuntu and boot that and install the Linux version of ADB, it works fine.
