I dont think you have broken your phone but
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel
(the section is called How to upgrade to the lastest ROM (currently 1.42))
but you can read more
1. Do a hard reset to bring it to the original state.
2. Unlock it
3. Upgrade your ROM to what ever version you want.
Here is how you do a hard reset.
--------------------------------
Hold down the Power button (Top Right corner) and at the same time put your Stylus pen in the hole where it says “Reset” (Lower Left corner).
Hi everyone,
I have an hw6515a I bought on eBay, it was sold as "Unlocked", but when I received it, it was locked.
The problem is that I have the unlock code but cannot put it in. The phone has 7 tries on the SIMLOCK.
Does anyone know or can explain how to reset the SIMLOCK counter?
Ive hard reset the phone. I loaded Spanish ROM v1.29, downloaded to 1.1 and the SIMLOCK is still on 7 tries.
Thanks

Simlock counter solution...
Hi all again,
After messing around very much with my iPAQ, downgrading the rom to version 1.06(English), back up to 1.29 (spanish), down to 1.24(English), and vice versa. I was not able to make the simlock counter reset (go back to 0).
I was very blue, because I bought 3 iPaq (two hw6515 and one 6315), the others were for my cousin and his brother-in-law.
The solution was very simple:
1.- I bought a sim unlock code on eBay ($us 15), and just in case bought from another seller (Both sellers gave me the exact unlock code). Anyway my phone company wanted to charge me $us 110 for each phone.
2.- Without the sim card in the phone I deactivated the auto power off and made the LCD light turn off after 5 mins when plugged to AC.
3.- I left my sim hard in the iPaq overnight and plugged to the charger.
4.- Left the phone on all night.
When I woke up early in the morning, the OK/Accept button was activated.
I put in the unlock code and.... walaaaa
Now will do the same to the other.
I hope this can help others with the same problem.
Cheerssss

A little confusion
Hi Kelas,
I bugged Cingular/ATT to the point where they have issued me an unlock code. I, at some point, had gotten a warranty replacement unit from cingular. So when I put a t-mobile card in, it right away said, tried 5 times, wait for timeout.
Anyways, my question is regarding your method. Between steps 2 & 3, you let the phone die, right?

put a foreign sim card in your phone and turn on the phone. when the it power all the way up with the screen where it ask for enter code but you can't click on OK button. JUST leave it overnight with charger plug in just in case yur battery goes down and the ok button should be appear again.

Thanks a lot for the info. I will try it out as soon as I can get hold of a non-ATT SIM card.
Asked "SUPER EASY" .. To see who knows something
(From Spain) I have a 6915 (in Spanish) Movistar company, recently released, and they want to send to a business partner in France.
I wanted to do two things, unlock, and change the ROM to the French.
I asked the unlock code for about € 25, and took to get there, I proceed with the ROM and flasee, with a French Orange ROM.
The result was a perfect change of the French language.
I have reached the code. And now they have sold the code is not valid. Get the message (in french) code rejected.
Questions:
Could it be that by changing the ROM now is not the same code that unlocked when it was in Spanish?
How many attempts have before lock? (I stopped and took 2)
How flash, it resets the number of attempts to unlock?
That's it ... To see if there is any expert to help
And pardon my English ...
I live in Australia, and have a Telstra branded Diamond, although it is unlocked ( i use Optus Sim card) anyways i was hoping to install unbranded cooked rom found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422417
I didn't know I needed to install HardSPL, i tried but it failed so i continued on (i know I'm retarded) so i tried using the Diamond Unlocker.
I hit Next, Next, Next until it got to progress bar it stayed on 0% then jumped to 100% and said that my device wasn't compatible or something like that, at that point the image on the diamond faded to black screen. I This happened when i tried Hardspl but i just hit reset and it turned back on alright.....this time it didn't, it doesn't react to the power button at all, iv tried hitting the reset button, booting into boot loader even though I'm pretty sure it doesn't have one, and tried MTTY which I'm pretty sure it pointless because my diamond doesn't turn on.
Please share any knowledge or ideas you have on how i can fix my Diamond, or where i can send it to be repaired (I have no warranty with Telstra by the way)
Is my diamond bricked for life?
EDIT: In the hope that my Diamond will return to life by holding the power button, i have noticed i can still feel the vibration it usually makes when turning it on although NO DISPLAY

Why you don't search the repair centre address from the HTC Australia pages?
I found this: http://www.htc.com/au/supportcontent.aspx?id=22104
Fonebiz Repair Centre
Address: 370 Whitehorse Road,
Nunawading,
VIC 3131
Tel: +613 98777688 (Australia Wide & International)
Fax: +613 98787988 (Australia Wide & International)
Business Hours: Monday to Friday 9am - 5:30pm (Australian EST)
Weekend and Public Holiday – Closed
Please ensure that you bring your Proof of Purchase and
all fault related accessories when you come into Fonebiz.
Thats the only problem, i have already thought of this, although i don't have proof of purchase anymore, can i still get it repaired without proof of purchase?
ANY Replies or ideas are appreciated, please HELP
I would contact them without a receipt you may have to pay for the repair
but I don't see why they should not make money of you repairing your broken device
Thanks for the reply, my question is, i bought this phone off a friend and knowing him he got it from someone else who probably has stolen it, so if i take it in for repairs and it is stolen I'm screwed....right?.....are they able to I.D a stolen device?
Thats what you get when you buy a stolen device. You'll pay it back one way another.
I guess but for $250 who wouldnt take it. I guess i should have read ALOT more instead of rushing a flash. So last question, does anyone know if its physically possible to fix the phone, if it be replacing a bit or get a technician to hardwire or something......is it possible? or am i stuck with a nice new paperweight?

I think its a case of what goes around, comes around.
Hey
I have a similar problem. But mine is bought and original and I have a receipt. Anyways, there's no way around the sending, is there? Because, I think, it'll take a lot of time and regarding the fact, that the mistake is on my side, the warranty is void, isn't it?
Hey everyone!
My sister got a Motorola like 2 or 3 years ago, which model I can't Identify, but looking at photos, it seems like a Moto X.
Problem is, I can't remove the back cover, the phone is stuck in the bootloader unlocked screen, and the phone has TWRP installed, and that's everything I have Access too (and fastboot of course 30.B7).
Is there a way to get the model from an ADB command or something like that?
The phone is the one on the link below
http://www.gsmarena.com/motorola_moto_x-5601.php
I would like to know if there's a way to recover the phone with a ZIP (if ADB transfer is possible), or if there's another way to flash the phone, without losing the recovery (of if it's easier to install later).
Any help will be appreciated.
UPDATE: I didn't find a way to identify the model, I just took a flashable ZIP around the forums, took the XT1052 GB and uploaded via adb sideload, and it just worked, now I need to ask for the nano sim and check if it's working
To find the model number, turn the phone over and look on the back cover at the bottom around the mic hole. Embossed very lightly is the model number, FCC ID, and it says "DESIGNED & ASSEMBLED IN THE USA." You'll have to hold it at an angle so that light reflects off of it or else it doesn't appear to be there. It's much harder to see on phones with a white back, but it's always there.
Hello everyone, I am from India and My HTC One is rooted, unlocked and international version.
I am in an urgent need of help as I am not able to figure out what has happened to my HTC One M7 and due to that don't know what to do next.
So all this happened last night, that is, 20th of February.
I have Insertcoin-7.1.3-REPACK-M7_UL_L50_SENSE70_MR_HTC_Europe_7.19.401.2 ROM with Elementalx kernel, installed on my device.
I was uninstalling few apps from my device, during the procedure it started to hang so I had to restart it then again I continued uninstalling another app or the same app if it didn't uninstalled due to hang. This hanging thing happened for about 5 or 6 times as I was removing so many apps! So I restarted it for about 5-6 times and after uninstalling all the apps that I didn't needed, I opened avast antivirus cleanup app to free up the space covered by junk files. and during its procedure, again my htc got hang and I again tried to restart it and since then I am not able to switch it on, the only response that I can get it after pressing the power button, it boots upto the HTC logo then nothing happens! and when I tried to go into recovery and install a fresh rom, I easily get into bootloader menu and the volume key works fine as navigation but as soon as I tried to go into recovery by pressing power button, it hangs, I also tried to do a factory reset from the bootloader but same thing, its hanging. And when I plug it in charger, the led keeps blinking. I don't know what's wrong and what to do next. I have learned a lot from XDA, I hope you guys can help me out! thank you in advance.

is your phone detected by your computer when its booted in bootloader / fastboot usb mode (check in your Windows device manager).
If you can , post a screenshot of your device manager with the phone connected and booted in bootloader / fastboot menu)

Yes I know what it means, unfortunately. That basically mean you can throw it in a garbage can
QHSUSB_DLOAD can happen for known 2 reasons
You flashed an incompatible firmware and right after that it went it this mode - recoverable
It randomly went in this mode = hardware failure - unrecoverable/must replace the motherboard.
Since you were experiencing hangs when playing with files, I guess this is confirming an hardware issue, maybe with the EMMC.

Damn! That's sad to hear, I think that the reason is the second one only because it's been few months since I have been using that ROM and KERNEL, and It was working smoothly, not even a single error occurred ever. any idea about how much does that motherboard cost? I bought my HTC for 43,000 INR in August 2014, that too the single sim version and currently dual sim version is coming for 24,000 INR so I am not in favor of investing a huge amount into it.
Don't Change the motherboard

Hey there,
Even I had the exact same issue(out of country device-stuck at boot screen-unable to enter boot loader mode-no solutions give above works)[/B] from the last one and half week. I gave the mobile to the HTC service center and today I got a call telling that the mobile's motherboard has to be replaced and since it is a out of country device, the change will cost INR.16,500
And so I told them to return my mobile.
So don't go for changing the motherboard and best is to try some alternatives like selling or repairing by ourselves.
Some one if you feel that there is way for this issue PLEASE post it. It will help us a lot........
Please guys IT IS URGENT......IT IS HELL WITHOUT A MOBILE U LOVE

Hey! Thanks a lot for sharing your issue with me. I am thinking to first get it checked by the service center and let's see what they say and how much amount they ask for, I am in a favor of only investing 2-3k, not more than that. If they asked for more than 5k. I'll order motherboard directly or manage it from somewhere and will get it fixed from some local shop.
I love my phone but don't wanna invest much as I already have purple tint issue and I was thinking to get it repaired and now I've an another issue which should be fixed first.

Ive seen some MB replaced for around USD 150-200$ so I wouldn't expect to get it repaired under 5000 INR
You can find a motherboard for the international variant around 95$ (6500 INR). Cheaper MB (around USD 60$) like the Sprint and Verizon variant won't fit in your phone. If ordering a motherboard online also make sure it was not salvaged from a blacklisted phone as the IMEI# is tied to the motherboard so if you change your MB you'll get a new IMEI and you don't want it to be blacklisted. If you never repaired a phone before then expect some more fees cause you will most likely broke something when disassembling it, like a lot of ppl did.
