Bricked? Don’t worry, I too thought that I bricked my phone during the installation process. It was so simple solution. Actually it happened of the same mistake that you performed and I had done. The problem is due to the the boot image not loaded on the booting system. And your phone has just stuck at the White background with a logo of HTC.
So you just need two steps from my old post that step that you might have forgotten. Old Post
You must have forgotten step number 23-25. You must perform these steps during the Power ON + Volume Down and the Fast boot mode. I will repeat those steps here too:
- Open the update.zip on your PC and extract the boot.img file to C:\Android\ directory
- On the CMD again with base dir C:\Android\>:(Note fastboot is already copied on your C:\Android\ directory)
fastboot flash boot boot.img - Now reboot your phone and all set to go.
When the boot.img is installed, you are set to go and enjoy the upgraded of your Smartphone because your might be more smarter than you 😉
