Can you get to the bootloader?

Do a battery pull, hold volume down+power then see if you can get to the recovery from the bootloader screen.

If you can get there you will be fine. Just wipe everything and restore a backup, or re-flash your rom.

I can get to the bootloader. Unfortuanly when it gets into the bootloader i now get.

Main Version is older!
Update failed!
Press <Power> to reboot.

other widse it just sits there and does nothing.. looks liek i have a new paper weight..

No don't worry. Bear with me as I don't have this device but i do have some htc experience. If you can reach the bootloader you definitely aren't Perma bricked. I just don't have as many resources for this device so unless someone else chimes in, I might take longer to get you there

So you get that error just booting into the bootloader? Or trying to run an ruu or something?

 

[Luis1968]

Correct I get that error just getting into the bootloader..

 

[Luis1968]

Just wondering if any one has any ideas for my above issue.
Thanks..

You don't have a PH98IMG zip on your sd card do you?

If so that needs to be deleted. It sounds like you might and if so that will prevent you from accessing recovery until it's gone.

I'm sorry for the late reply, I really didn't mean to make you wait so long. I fell asleep last night and just saw there was a new post here.

 

[Luis1968]

ok i got it to get past rthe Main Version is Older. and now at the htc screen splash screen(white with the green HTC) and just sits there nothing else happens

 

[Brian706]

Yes that's just trying to boot up normally. We need in the bootloader though. Do you have a file like that on your sd card per my above post?

 

[Luis1968]

there was a file (PH98IMG zip) which i deleted as you suggested..
no change.. just sits at the splash screen

Sounds like you have not flashed your boot image. With s on,a permanent recovery cannot install the boot image for you.

See this thread for info: http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?t=587430

I would try booting amon recovery is it describes.do a full wipe and flash the Rom again. Optionally,you can restore a backup after booting recovery if you want to save the Rom.flash for another day

The important thing is to read the linked thread and boot recovery in that manner. Otherwise,you'll need to manually flash boot images while s on.
