Only thing you can do is download the ruu and try to restore to stock
But I tried that, the ruu didn't detect my phone .
Try flashing this in recovery https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8zKSD2j-kHdVVI2WkNSNjRabTg/view?usp=docslist_api

Download and flash twrp recovery first. It allows u to mount USB storage from there
My phone doesn't support twrp
Cwm doesn't allow u to switch to external memory? Sorry haven't used cwm recovery in years. Not too sure about the features

clockworkmod recovery.
cwm was the main recovery for android devices up til a couple yrs ago when twrp also got into the recovery game.. you'll notice some devs base their install instructions off a certain recovery.. that way they know the full string of possible culprits when they have to diagnose an error or problem.

people really need to use their eyes and look at things a little bit more and quit being so lazy.. the whole 626 forum isnt that big. you can scroll a few pages to find what you need. we have 1 post with more then 30 pages. most are less then 7. don't quote this as a group mentality. it's possible I just suffer from the ability in how to deal with lazy/impatient people..
this phone sucks you know why..
its cheap, so we bought it." maybe.. just maybe well get a cool ROM.."
it's not a flagship device, so the dev side is going to be extremely nill
now we own the phone and dev is still nill, minor progress if anything..
I'm OK with waiting. it's the people that can't wait that are irritating...
read the boards.. it's not a huge sprawling community you can t find the answear.

My apologies if someone has already posted this, but i couldn'f find a post that was able to help me.
I had my HTC vivid rooted before updating to ics.
I relocked the bootloader and updated using the ruu.
After the update i unlocked the bootloader and needed some help rooting again.
I tired using the vivid all in one kit(thinking that would be the fastest) from the forum but that just made my phone freeze on the white htc screen.
i just "reinstalled" ics because that was the only way to get my phone to work again (phone works fine now)
So the question- How do i properly root my phone running ics
Someone correct if wrong. I dont think that tool will be compatible with ics. I to have updated to ics and I havent seen a post yet for an easy way to root or re root after upgrading to ics. I hope someone can find a flaw and bring back the one click root, like way back on the incredible with unrevoked.com. plug n click your phone boom all automated.

You have to register first for the Vivid section to show up.
just got cwm on the phone hope this is helpful to someone else
dl recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img (got mine from the vivid all in one)
do the same you would if you were unlocking bootloader
instead of typing the "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin)
type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img"
obviously files have to be in the correct area mine are all under c:\
hopefully that helps someone

It is basically the same idea but it is called touch recovery. It also works with gb and ics. Just like poster above said, you have to register to see the vivid section. Just read everything on the process and you will have recovery in no time!

I think it installs root when you install the recovery. You should see superuser when you boot back up after installation.
No go, no superuser and no root either. tried using titan backup as a tester it says i dont have permissions
I guess I had perm root. Did you look in the dev section and try the root file there?
It's in the superguide.

Glad I could help you! Just be careful with updating apps from tb. Try to avoid bringing data from gb to ics because it can cause problems. I would just install apps, you can try apps + data but sometimes it messes with things.
RESOLVED!!!!!
here's how i re-rooted my phone after ics ruu update
Unlock the bootloader following htcdev
dl recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img got mine from the vivid all in one tool (located inside the data folder, im sure you can find the file on this forum but i happened to have the all in one tool)
do the same steps you would if you were unlocking bootloader
instead of typing in cmd "fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"
type "fastboot flash recovery recovery-cwm-vivid-5.5.0.4b2.img"
that will get cwm onto your phone
Next follow this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416836
skip down to step 2
follow the steps but IGNORE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PH39IMG.ZIP
just boot into recovery with cwm and install from external sd the vivid_cwm_root ver.2
and voila fin!
this is probably not the most efficient way to do this but this is how i did it
hopefully this is helpful to someone
Okay i have waited about 2 weeks and scoured the ends of the internet, and maybe i missed something along my search if i did please let me know what post i missed. i would really love to figure this out. So i wanted to root my Cricket paygo desire c, i am not new to rooting (new to rooting htc though) i have rooted about every android device i have ever owned. i had downloaded HTC Desire C All-In-One Toolkit V2.0 [1-1-2013] [PERM ROOT]
if you havent already pls read the directions on this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2004198&highlight=all+in+one
Unlocked the boot-loader got all the way through clicked on install CWM it said it had done it. i clicked on the button to push SU through to the phone. went to go to the recovery screen to install su and red lettering appeared. i let it sit like that for about 2 hours trying to be hopeful about it going into recovery. i am too new to post in the all in one toolkit forum and every time i try to message the author it says there was an error. my phone still goes into boot-loader and still boots up just fine but i don't have full root access. so any help would be appreciated. greatly.

isn't cricket cdma?
not sure... as far as i know the toolkit doesn't work with cdma anyway
Yes i believe it is CDMA.
this is strange as i have a cdma desire c and mine rooted fine :L all customs roms have installed no hitch
it might be becasue i have a old gsm sim card? i dunno :L
I have the exact same problem ended up bricking my one desire trying to figure it out now im not even bothering trying to do anything with my new desire great thing is I can still go to my bootloader for the bricked cdma but thats it I need to find a way to take my image from my new phone and flash it with adb to bring that phone back alive

i have ran across and tried this method too i run the . bat and it opens up recovery mode and sticks on the white htc screen with red lettering again.. i am starting to feel that this phone isnt even worth the brain power lol.
It IS because the cricket phone is cdma, I did the exact same thing and am just as frustrated because I have also rooted and moved every android I've owned, this issue just never crossed my mind. What we need is custom recovery for the cdma version. If you come across it please post it here, I'll do the same. Thanks

Ok so I recently rooted my HTC One and I think I might've bricked my phone. I tried out the Renovate ROM (I think it was the latest version) and it didn't work somehow, and my phone was stuck in boot, so I went into recovery, and factory reset but I accidently checked the button for system and then my OS was deleted. To fix that, I adb pushed Insert Coin ROM and flashed that, but when I booted my phone, it started up fine, but then after 10 seconds or so, the phone would just freeze and then reboot. I went back into recovery adb pushed the stock Sprint HTC One ROM and flashed that and the same thing is happening, but this time, when the phone turns on, it just shows a black screen with the notification bar at the top, and I can't use it in any way. It also freezes and reboots after like 10 second.
TL: DR
My Sprint HTC One keeps on freezing then rebooting after ten seconds, no matter what ROM I try.
Thanks in advance.

You need to follow the dev instructions. If I were you though, I wouldn't do anything more until you understand some of the risks involved. A phone is a really, really inconvenient thing to have incapacitated when you're learning how to flash. For one, your device wasn't bricked (completely nonresponsive to input); for another, dev instructions are going to tell you to use fastboot (or a toolkit that runs fastboot for you).
Before you start again, you should learn how to use fastboot at the very least, and if you can, adb install/sideload (although it seems you tried that based on the OP). fastboot is often the only thing working if a flash goes awry.
A ROM is a ROM, no matter what device it's for. GSM/CDMA are separate network technologies that power your phone. In the U.S., Sprint and Verizon are the major CDMA carriers, while AT&T, T-Mobile, and essentially the rest of the world use GSM. The easiest way to tell the difference between the two is to remember if you needed a SIM card to activate the phone or not.
However, GSM and CDMA devices are set up differently on the software (and hardware, in terms of radios) side, and if you flash a ROM built for a GSM phone onto a CDMA equivalent, you'll probably break the device. For all intents and purposes, you should consider GSM phones to be wholly distinct devices. Also make sure you're only flashing ROMs built for Sprint, as there are often differences between Sprint and Verizon phones as well.

Thank you for all your information I really do appreciate it. I believe I understand fastboot alot better than when I started. I am starting to understand what I did wrong. I just have a few questions and I think I will be fine to just flash ROMs which is all I really want to do.
1. does it matter if s is off or not?
2. when I do flash a ROM should I flash just the IMG file or the whole ZIP?

1) If all you are doing is flashing Roms right now you don't need to s-off.
2) You flash the zip.
and I will second the notion that you should do a lot of reading before you do too much. This is an easy process to screw up if you don't know what you are doing and taking your phone out of commission can be a real pain in the ass.
Good Luck!

We all have to start somewhere. There are some good guides in the forums if you search though that will be a lot more comprehensive than the answers we can give in each individual thread.
1. S-OFF matters if you want to make changes to /system during runtime. For example, if you used a root tool like Titanium Backup to move an app into /system with S-ON, the phone would crash because it detected a security violation (improper programic access to a secured location). S-OFF disables that check. You can still flash ROMs with S-ON though since the protection isn't active to the same extent in recovery, although I think it will block writing to the radio. Don't monkey with it more than you have to though, because it's easy to really screw yourself over with the wrong combination of software (unsigned boot software and S-ON will really brick your phone).
2. Read the thread. Almost all ROMs though are distributed in a flashable .zip, meaning you copy it over to the phone's storage and install through recovery (or use sideload). You shouldn't have to use the .imgs ever, although it's a good trick to know (use fastboot flash <> <>.img) in case something goes wrong. I had to do this recently when my fubared my /system but didn't feel like reflashing the whole ROM, so I extracted system.img from the ROM I used and just pushed that to device.

There was a really good one in one of the threads in the development section, but I can't for the life of me remember what ROM had it posted. I'll take another look for it later, but in the meantime I would try reading on XDA's wiki.

You can flash over it (which is often called a dirty flash) but you are much better off wiping first. I usually use This tool. Just put it on your sd card and flash it before you flash your new ROM.

bugger, that's not good man.. First post to XDA and a dead phone..
I did that once and killed my phone, there was no fix.
Not to say that your is not recoverable, you will however need to provide much more details about what what have in terms of your phone (firmware etc) and the steps you took that lead to a non functional phone.
Without doing so people will not know how to assist you.
Do to the ease of having issues with this phone when rooting etc I am not playing around with my current One, its not worth it, stock works perfectly fine. I sometimes wonder why there are so many users who want to go back to stock, asking for support in doing so..
Good luck

I did that once and killed my phone, there was no fix.
Not to say that your is not recoverable, you will however need to provide much more details about what what have in terms of your phone (firmware etc) and the steps you took that lead to a non functional phone.
Without doing so people will not know how to assist you.
Do to the ease of having issues with this phone when rooting etc I am not playing around with my current One, its not worth it, stock works perfectly fine. I sometimes wonder why there are so many users who want to go back to stock, asking for support in doing so..
Good luck

Ok.. My Problem is i want to make the RUU on it but my pc doesnt found my htc.. but in my htc says FASTBOOT USB.. Any solutions that the pc get my phone?
ah, that's what I wanted to use to fix my One a while ago but would not have helped, there is not one available for my firmware so I was well out of luck.
As such, I have not use RUUs on the One, someone should be able to help you.
Please provide details on what firmware you have. I believe there are guides on flashing RUUs here on XDA too, and plenty of post of people getting stuck, read LOTS before doing anything always

What os are you using on your computer?
What is your hboot version?
is fastboot still working?
if yes copy/paste output of this command except imei and sn
Code:
fastboot getvar all
and then we'll be able to help you
If you cant use fastboot take a picture of your bootloader screen or write down all info here.

alray beat me to it
It is bricked, unless you could flash a recovery.

If fastboot commands work for your PC, then you will need to flash a custom recovery (TWRP 2.6.3.3), then from there, you can ADB Sideload a ROM and attempt to flash it.

Truly hope someone can come up with an answer for this one, or you have insurance of some form.
Ok i had luck
My provider gave me a new phone thx for you anserws!
hey guys, Just trying to get my bearings on where to start. A friend game me a HTC Desire 510 that was not loading for him. Just sticking on the HTC loading screen.
He managed to "unlock" it. Not sure if it has root access.
In anycase it will not loal anymore, stuck on HTC load screen. I followed a few threads and tried to reset/restore things but now it looks like i need to just reinstall the OS.
Where I am lost is where/can i get the stock OS for this phone?
If not , do i need to get root access, load in a bootloader and then load in a custom ROM?
last time I did all this before was 2 years ago on a Samsung so I am a little rusty on the steps.
details
HTC Desire 510 - europe (Irish)
HBOOT - 3.19.0.0000
Radio 01.02.012
When I load up the bootloader I have "Sofrware status: Officaial *** at the tope and UNLOCKED under that.
Cheers
check the htc website for the latest rom(update) also this thread is sprint/virgin/boost
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-510/development/virgin-sprint-htc-desire-510-stock-t2961521
cricket stock rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-510/help/stock-rom-cricket-htc-desire-510-t3161697
id see if the htc site works first but thats just me.
hope i was of help to you with your issues if not wait for more experanced members to assist.

Are you in Europe? If you are that's most likely a 64 bit phone and you'll need Philz Touch Recovery unless you have one installed. You'll also need to find a 64 bit stock HTC desire 510 rom.. It should work after installing them.
Edit: The HTC websites rom updater will not work since the phones boot is unlocked.. Just try what I said above.
Yes I am in Europe.
Will give what suggested a go and let you know..
cheers
here is your man for the job

Ok guys , getting around to trying this now but running into some small problems.
Question 1
I have installed adb.exe and it does work with my main phone (HTC m8) but when i plug in the broken phone it does not pick up that phone (when i do a ">adb.exe devices") I saw some comments saying that I need to enable debug mode but how can I do that when i cannot even load the phone up ?
Question 2
I would like to install this Philz Touch Recovery , so i can installed the new RUU but I see on some sites that I need to install ClockworkMod first. Now I am not sure if this is needed or not but i still have the problem of being unable to install it from the bootloader screen. There is no option to install from zip? So this might sound like a real n00b question but how can install anything to my phone when all i have it the bootloader screen. My options when i boot up are . . .
Fastboot
-->HBOOT
-->RAMDUMP
-->REBOOT
-->REBOOT fastboot
-->power down
recovery
factory reset
simlock
check smartSD
image CRC show barcode.
Review. . .
I would think my issue is with the broken phones connecting to my laptop and the use of adb.exe. If I could get that working i can use adb.exe to installl clockworkmod and from that I can boot up the phone and install Philz Touch Recovery, and then using phils installer I can install the original 64bit Rom and be in business?
does that seem right?
Cheers

Well now that you say that. I am having a strange issue. The phone will boot but only when I select "recovery" mode from the bootloader?
I presume what I have done is flashed the wrong image to the wrong section. I think i need to to flash something to boot and not to recovery when I was running the "fastboot flash recovery image.img!"
ideas?

I don't get what you're trying to do. If you wanna get back up and running, all you have to do is relock the bootloader and run the RUU... That's it. Your recovery doesn't matter. You don't need a custom recovery for that. Any custom recovery you have will be replaced by the stock one when you run the RUU.
I haven't been on this forum much lately, (so please correct me if I'm wrong, somebody) but from what I remember, the only custom recovery available for the 64-bit variant 510 is Philz. If that's the case then you shouldn't be flashing CWM

Yes you seem to be correct . I locked the bootloader and then used the command "fastboot flash boot <htc_orginal_ruu>" and it started working again.
I had lots of issues trying to get the CWM installed . It was someone else on this thread that suggested that but I think that info was wrong.
And just to conform for others that may read this someday you do not need Phils recover if you want to get the original system running. if you want to install custom ROMs then you need it then.
Thanks for the input. Half the time its just good to write out your problem so you can understand.

I did say you needed philz touch recovery if you have a 64 bit phone and you never really answered the 64 bit question and I asked because you said you are in Europe (Irish) and if you do have a 64 bit phone then you do need philz if you want to use other roms like the rest (most) of us on here do.

Yeah it was a 64bit phone.
I wanted the original OS back on the phone so that is why i did not need phils tool.

I kinda figured all that out on my own already but why do you just want stock? Why don't you want a rooted phone so you can do a lot more with it?

I've read through this entire thread more than 3 times and I never once seen anyone in this thread tell you to run CWM(ClockWorkMod).. or to even use that so where did get that idea from... The only thing I suggested was Philz Touch Recovery as did @Surj138 for a good reason cause it's the only one that's 64 bit for your phone!

It was from other threads that I read to install Phils recovery I would need install CWM but I think now that is for other phones. I said it was in this thread by mistake.
As for going for the original ROM as opposed to a custom ROM my reasoning is three fold. . . .
1. This phone will not be staying with me. Will be giving it back to my friend who is giving it to his daughter. She is would have no use for a root phone.
2. The last time I was using custom ROM was with my Samsung S2 about 3 years ago. I did like all the extra features, free apps and full customization that you can do with it but I did find that no matter what custom ROM I found there would be little problems with each one. Performance would slowly drop the more i switched around the custom ROMS.
3. Custom ROMs are great and all but we cannot be 100% sure there is not hidden male-ware in some of them that is robbing my data. It was going to be a spare phone for playing games then i would not mind but to give to someone as there main phone is not the best option.
