But now my phone dont want to boot and i have forgotten to put the rom on my phone either XD i did a restore already and cleaned the cache but it isn working.. who can help me ?

At wich point you are?
For put the rom into sd you can use the mount sd from recovery

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

What is the error?

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.

[Q] HBoot Relocked, S-ON, Root, trying to upload stock ROM

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

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!!!

Factory reset is impossible

In short, I'm trying to factory reset the phone to it's default settings, but every attempt is met with a failed attempt. Here's the specs
HTC Incredible
Android 2.2
Locked
S-ON
Hboot 1.02.000
Software: 3.26.605.1
Baseband: 2.15.00.07.28
Upgrading using the RUU file, PB3120000_Incredible_C_hboot_1.02.0000_4.08.605.2.exe, does nothing because even when it says it succeeds, the software version is the same. Tried the PB31IMG.zip method doesn't work because I get the error, "Main version is older". Going into recovery mode and resetting from there does nothing either because that fails.
The closest method I've seen which resembles mine is from this thread, but because the phone is deactivated I can't access the market to download and install rom manager to fix what could be a corrupted recovery? On top of that, I spent over an hour working with SDK, and came to the conclusion that I'm out of my depth. If anyone could point me in the right directions.
Edit: Figured out I had the wrong zip file so when I finally got it to update to 4.08.605.2 image, the boot screen is stuck at "HTC Incredible" splash screen, so I'm to assume I bricked it?

Try this ruu thru hboot http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip. If that dosent work i would unlock your bootloader with http://htcdev.com/bootloader. Then flash a custom recovery. Then from recovery try to do a full wipe and a flash of a rom.

How do I get access to the sim card from my computer and install the zip if the phone won't boat? Or is there a way I can still do this through hboot?

Well to put the PB file on the sdcard you would need to remove it from the phone, and then use a pc to put the file on there. You would most likley need an adapter, as most card readers dont do micro sd. However you can use fastboot to flash a pb file. Place the PB file on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Then type the folowing one at a time.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip PB31IMG.zip
Also unlocking the bootloader, and flashing a recovery only requires the use of fastboot.
EDIT: I guess i should have asked first if you have fastboot adb and their drivers setup on your pc? And if you know how to use them?

Sorry bout not mentioning I'm still a noob at this but for the most part I'm pretty tech savvy (just with iphones shhhh), I was in the middle of updating my progress, and I just finished installing SDK and recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-vivo.img, so now after installing the PB zip udate I got this message, "Failed (remote: 99 unknown fail)". What version of PB is this anyways?

The latest 4.08.605.15. Wait that is not a correct recovery for this phone. So you are unlocked now? If so that is why the fastboot ruu failed, the bootloader must be locked.

Yea I googled it not too long ago and figured that out. So what's the right version then?

I need to do some errands but I"ll be back in 30 minutes, Just letting you know in case you're waiting on me, but irregardless thanks for the help so far and I apologize having to put up with me. Bueno, ttys..

OK, I think I just made things worse. First off, I didn't know I shouldn't of unlocked it because now I instead of getting that error 99 when trying to mount the PB, I get the message saying, "bootloader err command error !!!" after I enter "fastboot oem rebootruu". And trying to mount it while it's unlocked I get the message, "FAILED (remote: not allowed)". Sad face all around. Also, those 2 links you gave me are broken or just aren't working for me, so I'll try to find other links in the mean time. But as far as re-locking the phone, I still get the same messages as above.

You can relock by typing in fastboot
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Or your saying you already tried that and it have an error?
The links should be working again.

Well you could try thay ruu in the post above, or go to recovery, do a wipe, and flash a rom.
EDIT: To flash a rom thru recovery you would need to unlock again with the bin file.
---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------
Lol we kind of have two different things going here, and they kind of conflict. So either stay locked and try that othet ruu, or unlock again and wipe and flash a rom with cwm.

Ok, it succesfully mounted that last image you linked to me. Only thing now after it finished on the command prompt, looking at the phone now and it's sitting there with the HTC logo, a black background, and a finished green bar. Should I just reboot it or keep waiting?

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....

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

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)

[Q] [Solved] unrooting?

I've read around on the forums here and other places but some of it doesn't make any sense to me and I watched a YouTube video about unlocking the bootloader then rooting the phone unfortunately i didn't do a nandroid back up before rooting (using supersu) and i am wondering if it is possible to flash to a stock rom so that in the future i can ota update in the future.
here is what i have at the moment
international phone (im on o2 in the uk anyway)
android version: 5.0.2
Software number: 1.32.401.15
unlocked bootloader
rooted
s-off
SuperCID
Also if someone can guide me through this i would be extremely thankful.
Thanks for your help guys.

You would need to either get a nandroid of your particular carriers ROM, or download the correct RUU from HTC.

it's also easy to rename the RUU.zip to 0PJAIMG.ZIP, place it on a ext sd card formatted in FAT32 (a 16 or 32gig one should work), reboot into DOWNLOAD_MODE, agree and it should flash.

ok managed to flash it back successfully couple of things though:
i couldnt copy the file when it was named 0JAIMPG.ZIP to the sd card (was in the phone not sure if i had to take it out and put it on)
it still says "software status modified" "unlocked" "s-off" afaik you can't get software status back to normal, to get unlocked back to locked would mean me relocking the bootloader and s-off shouldnt matter with ota update?
if i was to now re-install twrp but before rooting i took a nandroid backup would this allow me to get ota updates if i then restore to that after rooting or would one of the things above prevent me?
if not is there anyway i can get ota updates again?

If you used the htc_fastboot to flash it will not reset the modified tag
you have to do it yourself >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/how-to-restore-software-status-original-t3092882
To set unlocked to locked you have to do this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/general/how-to-lock-unlock-bootloader-htcdevs-t3092036
and yes, you can get OTA update with unlocked and s-off

Just leave it as htc_fastboot. They can coexist.
Dude, what's it tell you after you get the error 90? Flash again immediately, right? EVERYONE gets error 90 when flashing firmware. It's a pre-check before actually doing anything. If you're phone reboots to OS after getting 90, then just leave your command/terminal window open and put your phone back in download mode and re-run the exact same command to start the flash again.

you need htc_fastboot >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=96039337900114016
it's also easy to rename the RUU.zip to 0PJAIMG.ZIP, place it on a ext sd card formatted in FAT32 (a 16 or 32gig one should work), reboot into DOWNLOAD_MODE, agree and it should flash.

I'm sorry to tell you but if you updated to 5.1 and did not go into developer options and check to allow bootloader unlock, and then locked your bootloader theirs is nothing you can do but flash a RUU. Are you s-off ? If no your most likely stuck.
I have no idea what the file name you posted above is for... Edit: This may be the help you need >> https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347810886

Sir I am S-On. I am trying to flash a RUU but getting error everytime. Tried from SD card. tried via fastboot.
Also my M9 is HTC Asia (Hongkong). So I have tried flashing below one. Can I try flashing TW version given by you??

With S-ON it's not possible to downgrade or to flash RUUs that were made for other SKUs (Taiwan is 709 and Hongkong is 708). Since you can't use the RUU in my AFH folder because it's older than your actual firmware and there is no other RUU for the SKU 708 (or at least none I know) than that one you linked your only hope might be the RUU service on llabtoofer's website.
Edit @clsA: That file amit_coolcampus mentioned earlier is one of the OTAs for the Hongkong version of the M9.

Honestly, I don't know. I've always been able to recover my phones without the help of the HTC service center or the RUU service. My guess is that the RUU service might be cheaper but that's only a guess. Maybe someone else here had to use one or both of these services and can share his/her experience...
