Hello.

I tried to root my friends phone using Strawmetals guide found here: http ://minus.com/mu9vZ3P38

But after trying to get permanent root it's stuck on the HTC logo during boot.
I managed to downgrade it, using the ROM in the guide and after I tried to get it rooted it got stuck.

Output from bootloader:
VISION PVT ENG S-OFF
HBOOT-0.76.2000 (PC1011000)
MICROP-0425
RADIO-26.03.02.26_M
eMMC-boot
Aug 20 2010, 16:51:01

also, it seems that adb cant find(?) the phone, but fastboot works just fine.

Here is the output from fastboot getvar all:
