Fido HTC Desire 510 (32 bit). Stock everything, S-On, bootloader locked.
After about a day's worth of searching followed by experimentation and trial and error, I am resorting to creating a new thread. Although the issues I'm facing aren't completely unique, I feel like the combination of issues I'm having makes my situation unique if you can wrap your head around that, which I think justifies a new thread decently enough.
Some while ago, Google Play Services kept stopping every minute seemingly at random. It made navigating the phone near-impossible. I factory reset the phone from Settings to no avail, as the problem actually became worse after the reset. Now the phone simply refuse to go past the HTC splash screen (soft brick), although I still have access to Fastboot and Stock Recovery. Despite having these tools on hand, I can't seem to do anything with them. My first hope was to use an RUU to completely wipe the phone clean, but unfortunately it's a Fido/Rogers variant which doesn't have an accessible RUU posted anywhere. I then tried the Telus and Cricket RUUs, but they didn't work because of mismatching CIDs. For the record, I tried installing the Telus RUU though HBoot as a 0PCVIMG.zip and the Cricket RUU as an .exe program, and neither worked. After these failures, I decided I'd try unlocking the bootloader to install a custom rom or even restore someone else's Nandroid. I also can't do this though, because every time I reach the final step of the HTCDev process, the phone just boots into Recovery mode and goes no further than that. To elaborate, it gets stuck on the red triangle screen where it just sits there and does nothing. This also happens when I try to factory reset the phone from the HBoot menu. For the record, I can still access recovery options and whatnot by holding down volume up and pressing the power button. I've tried factory resetting from the recovery, but I'm still stuck in the same bootloop.
My apologies for the lengthy post, but I felt I needed to be well-detailed in the off-chance someone actually responds to this old forum.
Thanks in advanced.
