[Q] HBoot Relocked, S-ON, Root, trying to upload stock ROM - Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Im having reallly big problem with my Desire HD device and unfortunately,I realize this is only my fault and inadvertence. Im hoping that someone will help me with my problem...
First of all, I've had stock 2.3.5 on my device and every possible blockade. I've used Downgrade_v2 files (with adb and Gingerbreak and 1.32 stock android) but it wasn't working as it supossed to do. I've found nice tool to unblock DHD, called EasyAceRootTool. Everything went OK, new H-Boot was uploaded, unblock process went smoothly, Revovery Touch was uploaded to DHD as well, Superuser was installed too.
And at this level I've hurried too much, because I've installed by recovery new rom on Android 4.0.4 , this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1839004
And of course... I know now iVe forgot to make S-OFF, android doesn't start, nothing happens at all....
My Hboot now says :
Hboot :
***Relocked***
ACE PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-2.0020029
RADIO -26.14.04.28_M
Ive tried a lot of soutions
1)Install PD98IMG.zip on sdcard (2 different stock roms) but when Bootlader is checking image, it says, that newer android is already on device
2)Install RUU, It says that there is a problem with Hboot and i need to wait for upgrade
3)Install PD98IMG.zip (pulled out from stock RUU) by recovery, it says that this image is "bad"
4)Restore backed up adnroid from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920876&highlight=hboot, from section "Install stock Vodafone ROM", but it didn't helped as well, it says MD5 checksum failed...
5) When im trying to unlock Hboot in EasyAceRootTool, it communicating with device, but then it says : "Your device is not recognized"
Please guys... what else should I do ??
ps. I know there's a lot of grammatic mistakes, sorry for that. I was trying to check what I was writing

You've relocked your bootloader. You need to re-unlock it. Also, each time after you flash a ROM, you need to extract the boot.img from the ROM zip and
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img

The boot.img isn't the bootloader. You need to flash the ROM (not RUU), then fastboot flash the boot.img.

Wait, no. Flash the ROM from recovery. You can't flash zips like that in fastboot. You can flash ROM images, but it makes more sense for you to get a recovery and flash zips instead.
If you don't have a recovery, first you need to install one. If you have a rooted ROM, you can install a recovery from apps: ROM Manager for ClockworkMod, 4ext Updater apk (from 4ext's website) for 4ext, and GooManager for TWRP. If you don't, download a recovery.img and flash it from fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
.
If you do, just go straight to flashing the zip from recovery. Then,
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
.

What are you trying to do?? If you have an unlocked bootloader a RUU will never flash. Besides, being S-ON requires the specific RUU for your device.
If you have CWM and an unlocked bootloader, you can flash any custom rom in recovery but need to flash boot.img after flashing the rom.

You can't flash apks in recovery, only zips. Then fastboot flash the boot.img.

Ok, I was trying to put this device on feet, because it wasn't load any ROM I was flashing. There's a lot of tools and tutorials that I was reading before flashing DHD on xda and other forums. I was convinced, that I need S-OFF to use custom ROM. Few minutes a go I flashed Sabsa-Prime ROM by Recovery, then i searched for boot.img in Sabsa_Prime_v16.0_By_AlirezaB.zip, flashed it in fastboot, anddddd tadaaam...Everythings working perfectly
Thank You gyus, I really appreciate your help !! I was really stuck on this device...
Best Regards !

I need help...NOOB!!!

[Q] When I flash the latest CWM, it returns to amon-ra after reboot.

Hi Guys,
I have searched everywhere about this with no luck so have been forced to start a new thread...
I am running amon-ra v2.0.0 on my S-ON Desire.
I flashed the latest CWM that rom manager provides and it works... then i flashed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039954
Cool, it worked. But when i reboot it goes back to amon-ra????
I am thoroughly confused..
any suggestions?
Did you use fastboot?
Flashing the .zip is only temporary, to permanently flash recovery you have to use fastboot to flash recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.8-bravo.img
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1039954&page=15
has some details.
Hi sorry, i should have mentioned that when i tried 'fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-3.0.2.8-bravo.img' i got the following error...
sending 'recovery' (3036 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... INFOsignature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
you need to be S-OFF in order to flash recovery through fastboot (S-OFF disables signature checking in fastboot)
if you dont want to go s-off (it is easy, seriously) you can unroot, then while rooting again choose AmonRA in unrevoked.

You need to first flash the 2.17.401 ruu to upgrade hboot to 1.12 and then flash the new hboot firmware. It seems that 0.43 is too old to accept the new hboot update.

It is always a good idea to backup your data. Lock boatload and then run the exe file on your pc with the phone in fastboot mode.

Try
Code:
fastboot erase cache
after flashing recovery.
BtW: After the RUU u´ll need to update HBOOT to 1.28, e.g. with stuarts EasyFlasher in order to run JB/Sense4+
Backing up your SD-Data is important before updating HBOOT too, because SD will be deleted while updating.
LG, Helmut
damm, when i am in fastboot mode, fastboot devices gives nothing wtf... all that after flash zip CWM-SuperSU-v0.97.zip
never had that kind of problem before :'( pls help!!!!!
Why flashing supersu.zip?
supersu afaik is included in all JB/Sense4+ ROms
You installed 2.17.401.2 RUU completely?
Unlocked Bootloader again in order to get fastboot-mode working?
Now try running EasyFlasher in order to get HBOOT 1.28.
Then flash CWM 5.8.4.0 or TWRP 2.3.1.0 (fastboot erase cache after)
Reboot to Recovery, mount USB and copy ROM.zip to SD.
unmount USB, flash ROM.zip
Reboot into bootloader (fastboot usb), flash boot.img out of ROM.zip, fastboot erase cache and reboot, everything should work fine.

[Q] S-off method - Phone rooter by other

I just bought a rooted DInc2. I love it, and am slowly learning about. I don't know the method that the previous owner rooted the phone, but it is currently S-ON.
So, my question is: which method should I use to get it to S-OFF? I was looking at the Comprehensive S-OFF/Root Methods (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751796), and it is not clear to me. Do I use the instructions, "Get S-OFF after using HTCDev Unlock", even if I don't know if the phone was rooted using HTCDev Unlock?
Here is info on my phone:
S-ON
HBoot 0.98.0000
Radio 1.09.01.0312
eMMC-boot
Firmware 6.01.605.05 710RD
Thanks for your help
Only way that I know for it to be still S on is through htcdev.com. Yeah use that guide.

I copied the radio to my sdcard, with the name PG32IMG.zip. When you reboot in bootloader, it prompts you to run that file.
Don't forget to delete or rename that file when you're done so it doesn't prompt you to run that file every time you go into your boot loader.

Dis you lock the bootloader?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

hej guys he's talking about simunlocking....that's not going to work by unlockng the bootloader ! totally different
but.....
you only need to do this :
lock the bootloader (like stated above)
fastboot oem lock
then
fastboot oem rebootRUU
then
Fastboot flash zip firmware.zip (with the firmware.zip in the fastboot folder)
that's all.....
the problem is that i cant flash the firmware, yes i locked it again , at the moment its unlocked and now hen i turn on my phone it gets stuck at the o2 screen, you are simlock free when you change your rom as far as i now:laugh: ps where is my fastboot folder?
The firmware.zip must be in the folder where you have fastboot.
Because if the zip isn't in this folder, fastboot can't flash this.
No you are not simlock free when changing Rom !
I don't know where you left it do a search for fastboot.exe file or adb.exe file it should pop up somewhere

I know because you had a S-OFF device. The HTC oke X is S-ON so you will not get it simunlocked this way !
And yes you put the firmware.zip inside the fastboot folder and then execute the commands i wrote earlier
Did you download the corresponding firmware for your CID ?.

Hi Mate,
02__001 is not the same in anyway as HTC__001. HTC__001 is unbranded uk, 02__001 is then obviously 02 branded, do not confuse the two. Right if you have made a nandroid back up and still have custom recovery installed, have you extracted a copy of your boot image from your nandroid if so, flash the boot image using fasboot command, when phone is connected to PC, then boot in to recovery and restore nandroid.
If this is not the case you need to supply some more info about your phone, what base it was on when you got it, what HBOOT you are currently on, because if your are on a lower HBOOT than a JB firmware then you will not be able to do a JB RUU, you may have to do a ICS RUU.
So for starters
is your bootloader ***unlocked***
are you using international HOX ie ENDEAVORU
what is HBOOT ...
once the community know exactly what you are working with and what you have done people will be best placed to help you. Please bare in mind the HOX is not fully unlocked like previous HTC devices ie no "S-OFF" unless you are very lucky, so it is not as easy as just flash, there are a lot of fastboot commands to be aware of a little reading prior to actioning anything on your phone will go a long way.

We know what he is doing ..... he just got the wrong firmware. And i already gave him the link to the right one so......
And yes flash the right firmware, flash a custom recovery, flash the boot.img from the desired rom, full wipe in recovery and a clean install of the new Rom.

Help: Bricked Htc one M8 GPe

Hello everyone, I started to play around with all the diff things you can do with a rooted phone had plans for getting a custom ROM for my phone. Let me stat by saying that I am very new to all this.
I day ago i was getting ready to install the custom ROM for viper (ViperOneM8_1.7.1) reason being is coming from a htc one m7 with sense i wanted to get back to sense from my stock GPe m8.
I was able to unlock my bootloader and get my phone rooted I fallowed this video (How to Root your HTC One M8 - Full Guide) From Sakitech... or least I think im rooted still... I'll come back to you as to why I say "I think I'm rooted".
I thought it would be very simple just fire up the custom recovery and flash the ROM and sit back while it flashed, well everything went down hill from this point. Let me tell you what i did.
First i got to the custom recovery and I did a wipe I did advanced wipe and checked the boxes this is where I think I deleted the OS(after this I could not get back on the phone to do anything only will boot to recovery and it say no OS installed then asks if I want to get SuperSU installed this is where I already thought I was rooted but maybe on not??? I'm very confused about that
Then I used the sideload method to push the rom zip and try to flash the rom at this point I cant get it to flash. First I was getting the MD5 error I checked that off now it will just fail either saying error executing the binary from the zip or that zip is corrupted. (I tried re-downloading the ROM even from mirror link)
At this point I am very frustrated and feel helpless. I tried my best to keep from posting this and try to research to see if i can find the solution myself but I'm having no luck I have my days off from work to get my phone up and running or ill just have to go but another phone. At this point I really need some help. All I want is a working phone if i can get back to GPe stock that would be fine or make the ViperOne work.
Attempts to solve my problem: I tried flashing GPE4.4.3_m8.zip and other stock GPe ROMs nothing works
Thanks for reading and all your help I will sit nest to my comp and answer anything to try make everything as clear as possible. Thank you again
So I tried ViperOne again and it was starting to install but then fails. I searched around and I found that i need to have s-off to be able to install the ROM.
Can I get s-off from the recovery or bootloader/fastboot?

Try this :
Do a full wipe in the recovery, install viper rom but do not choose to do a full wipe in the aroma installer. Once finished you flash the boot.img via fastboot and then reboot the phone.
You do not need s-off to flash custom roms. But the GPE thingy can be the problem....

fastboot flash img boot.img

try that command, and what model did you have originally and did you convert to gpe or flash a gpe ROM.
gave me an error
Code:
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
Its a stock Google play edition I bought from the Google paly store, I didnt flash any other rom the ViperOne rom was going to be the first flash on the phone
Do you have an SD reader on your laptop? You can buy a big SD that you can put a small SD card inside it, then put the ROM zip file inside the SD card, after that plug it in your M8 and flash it via twrp.
Let me know if you couldn't understand any point cuz my English is not that good.

Correct command is fastboot flash boot boot.img
status 7 means you don't have right recovery for that ROM
Also search about Stock GPE partition layout, is it same as normal non-GPE. I doubt it as I seen somewhere about people do full conversion to GPE, they need to reflash firmware to correct the partition for Sense ROM. This is what I understand from this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708589

I have researched about the partition layout and I think you are right. How do i get the right partition layout? this is all a learning experience for me lol. I just hope i can get my phone working again.
In thats case then i might be worse off then i though my phone is s-on an there is no way for me to get it s-off in its current bricked state... to the the Ruu to install
correct me if im wrong but then what i have to do is just flash the stock rom for gpe beacuse since my phone was already stock GPe the the frieware(partition layout) will apcct it... right?
I want to thank everyone at the this point it looks like i have a lot of learning to do. Thank you

Follow the link in the post you quoted:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708589
You should really read carefully before doing stuff with your phone, especially when you are unexperienced.
If you are unsure about anything, ask before you try messing with something and hope that it will work.
You didnt, and now you have the mess.
But now even now you are not able to follow the instructions people are giving you.
In the post you just quoted there are instructions how to go from GPE to Sense and also back (#1 and #2 post)
