Your battery could be dead find a way to charger.

Its not a battery issue....it seems if you do a factory reset the drivers are deleted from the phone itself....rendering the device useless.

I actually did the same thing, had to take my phone back and get a new one. I followed the steps pretty precise but i somehow got mixed up at the end.

The easiest way ( for me at least) to flash a boot.IMG (kernel) is with Flashimagegui. It's available in the market.......ahem, google play for a buck. Or the creator of the SW has a dl link in his thread for free.

Go into HBOOT (if you don't know how, go look for it! Not handholding you all the way through this), and re-unlock your bootloader. It should boot back into whatever custom ROM you had before.
If you weren't on a custom ROM, download the ICS RUU (or an old GB one) and pray that it works.
If it doesn't work, congratulations, you're the proud owner of a brick! Learn your lesson, and READ next time!

where can i get the download the ICS RUU

did you get ICS up n runnin? Or did you have to roll w/ GB?

Got the ics running! The Ruu helped a lot

For future reference, its not a brick if you can still power on. If you can get it even to power on, most of the time you can fix it. If you do something and it wont power on, youre done. Soft Brick v. Hard Brick.

Thanks for the info!

Thanks for the help! I actually flashed the kernel without even knowing it and the rom flashed just fine.

Yes if you had a GB radio/ROM combination and you tried to flash a Froyo RUU then you have a radio bricked IncS.

Just a question, have you taken battery out and put it back in to let the phone boot back up itself?
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium

First of all, can your phone correctly boot into bootloader mode? If yes, you may have a chance to make it back to alive!!

i am so sad . if i send the phone to htc they can fix it or not ??? and if anyone know any place here in turkey please tell me.

This is the last chance. But they can refuse to repair or you have to pay for the new hardware. Give it a try. Good Luck!

[Q] shows only charging symbol-- Soft Bricked?

hello all the professionals there, i ve encountered a problem with the htc desire c in my collection.
i ve been playing games on this and all of a sudden the device gets switched off and doesnt turn on whatever i try to do.
but when i connect it to the power its showing the charging symbol and nothing else.
Tried connecting to pc
tried to enter Hboot mode
tried hard resetting
tried everything i could possibly do.
but no use on this, any suggestions to revive it back??
PS: all hopes are on that the device isnt hard bricked as it still shows the charging notification when the power cable is connected.
help me :\

I don't think there's a possible way till now by which one can Hardbrick their Desire C....I assume your phone has default Htc recovery installed on it

if youre still on stock rom flash a custom kernel and rom
