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

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.

Also stuck on White HTC Screen
**Fixed** I used the method I found in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1639542
Thanks to everyone the helps on this forum, it's an awesome help for people like me!**
Today I attempted to root my HTC Velocity, I'm with Telstra and my phone was running an original Telstra version of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Now when I try to start my phone it gets stuck at the white HTC screen. I am able to get into HBoot (I also wasn't able to disable the NAND security) and Recovery. Unfortunatley I didn't make any sort of backup in the recovery program.
I know there are plenty of warnings and its my stupid noob mistake for messing around with my phone when I didn't know what I was doing but at the moment I'd really appreciate if someone is able to help me.

You can go to the HTCDEV.com site and download the last official ICS RUU for the IncS and see if you can execute and run that to bring your phone back to life.

Can you post a screen shot of your bootloader (HBOOT) screen? Do you have the original box the phone came in? If so, can you post the Model ID?

Help fix a soft bricked HTC One Mini

Hello,
So my phone is unlocked, S-ON, and now it is stuck on the green HTC logo. I am using a HTC One Mini from the EE network in the UK. If anyone can help me out that would be great, perhaps a list of things to check or to do to step back and reset. I'm not sure ~what~ the problem is although I've tried to install a couple of ROMs and all have the same conclusion. Currently the phone has been left on for 16 hours on the green HTC logo so I know it's not just a slow boot. I'm also able to get into the bootloader and CWMR.
I don't care about going all the way back to the original ROM, I'd just like my phone to be working.
Is it possible to flash stock firmware and then a stock ROM to reset the phone? htc1guru is down which would be the source for the original rom, does anyone know an alternative?

Htc one (m7) blur camera

Hi, I hope I'm posting this question in the right place because I'm new here and I need assistance, I bought a fairly used HTC one m7 with a faulty camera that doesn't work but I got it fixed at a local repairer, after the fix, I updated my os from android 4.3 to the latest available 5.0.2 RUU from HTC website, immediately after the update, I noticed my camera focus doesn't work, all images in the camera looks blur except if brought to just few centimetres away from it, the icon for the front camera is missing, it told me to swipe the screen to swap cameras which technically did nothing, I tried downloading a third party selfie app and it goes to the back camera by default, I managed to downgrade the phone's OS even below the one it came with to 4.1.2 but still no avail, I'm pretty sure it's no hardware problem because I used the camera perfectly few hours before the update, the preloaded OS was a customized version I guess because I could unlock the phone just by swiping the HTC logo and it came with this "soul tweaks" preinstalled.

I had the same problem...I think It has Something to do with the Stock ROM...Try Installing a Custom ROM...***Worked for me***

Sorry it took me so long to reply although faced some serious flashing issues, ur suggestion worked like charm bro, after flashing viperone one rom, I got my camera working 100% , unfortunately I had to go back to stock because I faced a lot of bug issues on viper one. I downgraded my phone too low (4.3) and also faced some Chinese character issues from my network provider so I wanted upgrading it back to (5.0.2 or 4.4.3) but I got error 155 using RUU or failed using fastboot, but any ways, thanks for your help, I appreciate

Hi everyone, i had the same problem with camera as u
And now i want to install a viper 9.0 rom but my phone is relocked and when i run the command
Fastboot OEM get_identifier_token
The result window appear and disappear immediately so i can't copy the code to get unlock.bin file
So do u know the method to stop the window for me to copy the code. So many thanks.
