How to fix HTC Desire 826 if its stuck on logo

This tutorial will help you fix HTC Desire 826 dual sim( A52_DTUL) that is soft bricked.

Requirements:

• Micro-SD card : A good quality Micro SD card of at least 2GB capacity (Would recommend 4GB or above)
• A Micro-SD card reader: A good quality MicroSD card reader for transferring the firmware file to the micro SD card.
• A computer.

Procedure:

• Download the appropriate firmware file for your device from here  (please note that some firmware files are exclusive and you may have to purchase a subscription from them to download the file)
• Format the memory card( not compulsory but I would recommend it) and transfer the firmware file to it.
• Rename the firmware file transferred to the Micro SD card to 0PHCIMG.zip 
• Insert the memory card into your HTC Desire 826
• Now assuming that your phone is in off position, press and hold volume down and power buttons for 30 seconds. It should boot the phone into bootloader mode.(If your phone is in reboot loop and you cant turn off your phone, just press and hold volume up and power button together for 30 seconds , as soon as the phone goes off release both buttons and press and hold the volume down button, it should restart in bootloader mode)
• The phone should now start reading the firmware file from the memory card.
• After a while, it will ask you whether you want to start updating our phone. Click yes and wait for the procedure to complete. Once completed , it will ask you to restart the phone and your phone should boot up normally and show you the initial setup screen.

Please Note: Flashing firmware is a risky process. Do it under your own risk. I wont be responsible for any damage to your device caused by following this tutorial. Make sure your phone has at least 50% charge before starting with this process. I would recommend you keep the phone plugged into the charger during the procedure. Also note that all data on your phone will be erased/formatted , so make sure you have a backup of any important data.
