Bricked HTC Vivivd

Hello,
After the OTA update, my Vivid doesn't want to turn on at all. When I connect it to USB I get QHSUSB_DLOAD and nothing happens.
Any ideas ? Thank you !

Your phone is done. There is no way to fix the problem beside getting a new phone.

I wouldn't say that. Since the chipset could be written, it is not completely dead. Sensation users have already found a fix for this, but it is a different chipset.

We don't have the files needed to recover. Either you need to get it replaced under warranty or insurance.

Which OTA update? As far as I know AT&T and Telstra are the only two carriers to have released their ICS update OTA. If you're actually on Voda in Romania I don't know what would have possessed you to try installing one of those two OTAs.

..

The phone is from AT&T. It didn't have any sim card in it when I got the update.

yeah man theres no way sorry. at least for now.

to be honest, ur best bet is to call htc service and warranty and see if you can ship it to them
http://www.htc.com/us/support/service-and-repair
i've sent them many phones for repairs under warranty, and all but 1 didn't get fixed for free

Does it vibrate if your try to do the bootloader combo?

No. It doesn't react at any keypress.

Serious Help Needed
Hello everyone. Sorry to even waste your time, but I am in need of help with my HTC Vivid. I am on an unrooted, locked bootloader, and I have been trying to upgrade to the newest ICS OTA update that I missed with the dialer code.
I have downloaded the PH39IMG.zip, and it updated my HBoot to 1.85.0024. This is where I am stuck. The phone will only show HTC on startup, and then goes black. Again I am on an unrooted HTC Vivid. Any help would be hugly appreciated. Please help out a simpleton.
Thanks for your time.

Unlock the bootloader in fastboot.
Flash recovery in fastboot
Flash boot in fastboot
Flash Rom of your choice

Did you run the PH39IMG file twice? it needs to run the file twice to complete updating the HBOOT. In any case, and this goes for all who are not very familiar with Vivid flashing, USE THE RUU!
In your current state, try to boot into bootloader (you probably already know the process, but it is power + vol down from power off state) Once you have booted into bootloader, you can proceed and upgrade to stock ICS. If you decided to run custom roms after, it is easy and much much less likely to brick your phone.

Hallelujah
Thanks so much guys. Those were helpful tips, and I have ICS running now. Thanks again. Have a good one.

[Q] Lost... trying to root or restore raider

I've tried every guide, and every step twice. I can't get past the white HTC screen. I can get into the bootloader, and recovery screens.
Just don't know where to go next.
very frustrated, and not looking forward to an hours drive to the tech area to get it fixed.

hi enter to the bootloader - fastboot and make it lock with this command ( fastboot oem lock ) and then download and run roger ruu stock
(http://hotfile.com/dl/145619873/245....77.551061.02L_release_219561_signed.exe.html)
like that it should be back to the stock.

Well I'm not entirely sure why it worked this time - lord knows i tried every combination of commands at least twice.
I'm back at setup for Rogers - guess I'll have to learn to live with the low volume issue - which is what prompted me to look for a root to begin with.
Thank you for the assistance at least getting me back to square 1

Boot into fastboot, and flash stock kernel. Or flas recovery to install Rom. guess u'r in bootloop. Cmiiw

Hi Guys,
I have a problem where my internal earphone stopped working after flashing the kernel to a different one. still on the stock ICS ROM though.
Would this download put me back to stock as well. I am running a HTC Velocity (Vivid).
I know this is a noobish question just literally plucking straws here now. been trying to get the earphone working for a day now.

Having the same Problem
I am having the same problem with my Phone except I don't think USB debugging is activated somehow got turned off.. Anyone know to tunr it back on because I can only acess HBoot and Recovery. i see alot of tutorials that say oh just do this.. But my phone won't connect...

Go to recovery and plug it in. Run ADB and type adb devices. It should say
"List of devices attached"
*Serial number below*
If your serial number pops up it's connected. If it doesn't then it could be your drivers aren't installed. I had that problem and downloading the drivers again fixed it.

You would need the RUU.exe for the Vivid. Not the Raider.
http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-vivid-att/software-updates
Underneath "HTC Vivid™ for AT&T ROM Update | 03.22.2012" click read more in green. Go to the bottom and click download. That is the ICS stock RUU for AT&T Vivid.

it worked
It worked. It break the screen loop. First I relocked. The RUU install the ICS. Now at hboot show: S-ON RL
Could you please tell me what next? I am terrified to get back to the past loop... haha

hey guys,
thanks for the post and the info. I am hoping I can get some help. I recently upgraded to a new ATT - HTC Vivid. I guess I was impatient in wanting to root and flash ROM so I used the [TOOL] HTC Vivid All-In-One Toolkit V2.2 to "un-lock bootloader" and get root. Afterwards I realized the phone had/has old software/rom (no ICS beats audio etc) - I tried updating the software manually and it would not take - kept getting error messege. Then I got notification that ATT/HTC was trying to "push" the update to my phone but when I tried to install the update it would not work. I keep getting what looks like a dead android with chest open with red exclamation point. I tried a few times and still nothing. so after some research I came across this thread. I am still a "noob" at this I guess so I could really use some help, please. I believe I have to "re-lock bootlaoder" but I am confused as to how to go about this. for example, how do you, "TRY FLASHING THE WCXRECOVERY.IMG USING FASTBOOT FIRST?" - please help! lol like I said - I'm still a noob I guess
I tried the video but it only further confused me

please help!!!! I really need it. I tried using your tutorial to re-lock my Vivid and update ROM to ICS. I got through the first part where I re-locked the phone ut when I got to the part to "unlock" again before flashing recovery I get the "Unlock bootloader" screen and I use volume button to select yes and hit power button but that's it - it's stuck at that scree and will not go further. now my phone won't start normally if I try etc and I even got a red exclamation etc - Please help, I dont know what I did wrong but now I have no phone!!!!!
Thanks a bunch for any and all help

This should probably be in the General forum, not development...
If you pull your battery, then put it back in, then hold VOLDOWN button and the POWER button, do you get into Bootloader mode?
If you can, choose Fastboot mode, and then connect your phone to the PC. (I'm assuming you have the right driver(s) installed so you can issue Fastboot commands to the phone?)
If you've gotten that far, and want to re-lock your bootloader using fastboot, the fastboot command is:
"fastboot oem lock"
Run that in a command prompt window. Make sure you have navigated to the folder that has fastboot.exe, of course. Are you familiar with using command prompt?
Once your bootloader is relocked, you can re-start your phone into bootloader mode, and then flash your stock carrier's RUU using your PC... I hope this helps.

In the meantime, I can get into Bootloader mode but I am already "Relocked" - from what I understand at this point I was supposed to "Unlock" again and flash recovery using "unlock bin" but at the unlock bootloader screen on my phone after I select yes and press power button nothing happens. my phone freezes at that ponit.

I wonder (since you are already re-locked), if you should consider flashing your phones stock RUU (so the phone will be back to stock).
Then unlock your bootloader via HTCDEV again...
Then you can flash a custom recovery, then you can do a nandroid backup of your phone... then you can do your wipes and install a rom?

thanks again for responding, much appreciated. I wish I knew how to flash back to stock. I'm at a loss or stuck right now.I just found the stock RUU and I'm trying to download it but once I get it how do I flash it back to stock? That is actually what Ive been trying to do. You see I recently upgraded to the Vivid and "unlocked bootloader" and "rooted" before I realized I had old software (no ICS - beats audio etc). So after some research I read that I had to "re-lock" so that is what I was trying to do before I got stuck. what do you think I should do fromhere? I'd really like to at least get my phone working again with stock even, just working.
thanks again,
Rafael

OK. So since you are relocked, you should be able to flash your stock RUU.
The RUU is an EXE file. Just run it on your PC (with your phone, in fastboot mode, connected to the PC). It will detect the phone and perform the flashes and when it's finished, your phone will be like stock again.

Yeah...just use ruu like you would any other pc program...it will walk you through the steps in the program...
As for beats...I had beats audio on stock gingerbread? Confused why you don't...I only had gingerbread for a couple days before upgrading but I remember seeing the beats icon in notification...

and when my phone restarted I ended up with the red exclamation point in a triangle again. any more ideas? I hope I did not "brick" my phone.

What is the exact file name of the RUU you are using?
Also, when your phone was working, what was the stock base that it had? Was it Gingerbread? or ICS?
From a quick google search, it seems Error 104 is "wrong hboot version". Interesting... I remember mine said that when I was trying to flash the old GB on my phone which had already been upgraded to ICS.

I tried the old ATT RUU without ICS which is what I had originally and it did not take. I got an error message (error 104). I also did not have beats audio surprisingly enough when I first got the phone which is how I realized I did not have the new/current ATT ROM ICS.

We really need a mod to move this to the "Q&A" section...
Anyways assuming your on completely stock gingerbread you can call this number *#*#682#*#* that will do a force update...vant be root tho, and can't have an unlocked bootloader
Edit...discard this post just read above about the red exclamation mark...can you still get to hboot? If you can...can you verify that it says "re-locked" at the top?

Yeah...next time do not pull the plug, I'm sure its still saveable tho..I've had failed ruu flashes before and it mentions something about exclamation marks in the corners, so Im pretty sure the ruu has a fix for it...if I get time ill see if I can get that info from a ruu...

[Q]Possible brick after failed RUU install?

First of all I experimented with some custom ROMs. But after a while I wanted to go back to stock and tried to install a RUU I already used succesfull. But during the installation it hung up and I had to cancel it. And now it is impossible to use everything. The phone just show me the black background with the HTC log and four triangles in the corners. I can't use the bootloader, go into recovery or use adb, first of all because my PC doesn't recognize my phone anymore. Already tried to use adb and some tools like the AIO bye anders and the XL Multi tool. I also tried the Forum search for bricked stuff, but nothing worked so far. Any idea how to fix it?
And please excuse my bad english. It was a long day. ^^

In pretty sure that's completely bring, idk how yous brick the sxl, ivebdonebso much stuff to mine and I wonder how mines still perfect, you might wanna look into some articles about jtag!

Don't know how, as I said. I did also do a lot of stuff to my phone, custom ROMs, Themes, Kernel etc. Now I just tried to go back to stock, relocked, went into fastboot, everything as prescribed.
And during the installation I've got said that the installation was aborted. The progress bar on the phone didn't react and the software stucked too. Additionaly, my PC is really potent, without any other software problems so far. So, Software forced to close and I had no other joice than to put the battery out of my phone to restart it. And so it happened.
Thanks for the info about jtag. As an Electrician, it is really inviting to buy such a machine. But I think, this time I'll bring it to repair and wait for the results. Let to the experts their job. But thanks for the reply.

So if you turn on phone all you have is a black screen? What if you pull out battery and insert it and hold down volume down and power button? Does it go to bootloader or also just black screen? If black screen try adb devices and fastboot devices. And when connected look in control panel what it calls the phone. Perhaps it says qsusb or something?

I'm not being rude I'm.just stating sxl is very hard to brick if you even try to, I'm not saying its your fault either, a fault USB cable could brick your phone if your half way through an installation if you can't get into bootloader, recovery or pick up your device in adb, I think the only solution is jtag!

When yo flash RUU the phone goes into kind an own bootloader. The black screen with a silver HTC logo. This is the only thing i get into, but with four triangles, in each corner of the display. It doesn't matter what I do, tried to pull the battery, use the key combo, adb/fastboot etc. When the phone starts, it shows directly the screen described above.
Sent in for repair today and just can wait now. But thanks guys for your replies.

How did it go? Did they fix your problem? Also this happened to me, I discovered that the cause was because installing the ruu relocks the bootloader before it wipes the Rom, and mine failed just before wiping the Rom,I had a custom Rom installed so it would not boot into it because the bootloader was locked so I re-unlocked the bootloader then the phone booted up normally!

Newb here.. Unlocked update?

Hello guys. Im having some trouble here. I purchased this htc one used about a yr ago. These last couple of weeks I have been getting update screens and when i hit ok to update it downloads and when it installs it freezes about 30% in and i have to hold the power and vol up under a light to reboot it in which it loads into a screen with a red triangle. I reboot it again and it boots phone normal.
Now i did a little research and i believe my phone is unlocked. I just watched a 15 min video of unlocking bootloader and root. This one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2260376. At the end There was a app called SuperSU. I have always wondered what that was for and i do have that on my phone.
I would like to update my phone but have no clue what needs to be done or where to even start...
Any help would be much appreciated.

Update will not be applied until and unless you have a fully stock rom locked or relocked bootloader.
in this case you will have to run the ruu of your phone.
