Bricked phone / Orange RUU HELP please!

[trancehead]

I have just run AlphaRev S-OFF CD and got to step 3.. it seemed to be taking forever and i disconnected it but now the phone wont boot.

I didn't take a nandroid backup and all the RUUs i try to put on have CID error displayed.

Can anyone tell me how to fix the phone / get the correct RUU please?

You can't get the correct RUU as it doesn't exist.

Either make a goldcard or use the GB 2.3 RUU

There is no orange one.

I hope you made a gold card because as far as I'm aware you need to flash a generic RUU with (not 100% sure on this bit) the same version you were on.

For example if you got the phone on 2.2 (Froyo) that's what you need to get. But like I said I ain't certain on that last piece of info so ideally get someone with more knowledge on the matter to confirm if it's correct.

Hope it helps a little.


Ahh Dan beat me too it.

Thanks guys

Can you link the correct RUU please? I have tried loads but none are working..

Also if i can make a goldcard then what do i need to do?

 

[SUroot]

There is no correct. It's either goldcard (then any RUU works) or gingerbread from htcdev.com - kernel source - view downloads

 

[trancehead]

So if i dont have a goldcard the gingerbread 2.3 upgrade from here (first one) HTCdev - HTC Kernel Source Code and Binaries will work?

 

[SUroot]

Yes

 

[trancehead]

The 2.3 RUU worked but now unrekoved cant root the phone? Any ideas?

 

[SUroot]

You can't use unrevoked on 2.3

Do you know how to downgrade to 2.2 and downgrade the hboot?

 

[SUroot]

Yes, first you need to use revolutionary
