I by mistake flashed Rom 1.94.710.2 using SD Card, The SPL got overwritten and I am stuck with the boot loader and unable to flash any rom, Error 294.
Also not able to flash using SD card.
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you and best regards
how did the hardSPL get overwritten? I'm new to HTC hacking but isnt that supposed to be impossible?
Try to go into SPL and flash using USB. May be that works. Not sure even

EXT4 recovery
Unlocked Hboot 1.5 s-on
I was running ZR3Dv2.4b smoothly and tried to use boot manager to boot MIUI. MIUI ran fine, but I could not boot back. I tried to flash a new rom and it would still only boot MIUI. It said data, system, and boot are all unmounted? But said image flashed succesfully. I can remount system and data, but no option for boot. Now I cant even boot back to even MIUI. All I get is the HTC screen.
I also tried to download the first posted link for a 2.17 ruu from this thread; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24268786&postcount=209
Bootloader finished checking it and quickly says wrong zip and brings me back to main bootloader screen.
Please help me us my phone again!
Did you try fastbooting into your recovery. 4ext leaves a copy of the boot.img on your sd card. If you have a sd card reader you should try to extract it, place it on your pc and fastboot into it.
Coming from sense to aosp and back and forth can cause all kinds of headaches.
I tried to get fastboot usb to pop up when i plug the cord in, but it does not. i have htc sync installed so i should have the drivers. i also have not done anything with phones using my pc, always just from the phone. is there a thread that could help me with this? i searched, i always search, first time i couldnt find an answer!

Have you tried a nandroid restore? I believe I've ram across the problem before and my fix was mounting USB I'm recovery and deleting the boot manager folder, hope one of these options helps

I cant seem to connect my phone to my pc with fastboot usb or with usb storage in ext4 touch recovery. What software and device drivers do i need?
install htc sync and uninstall it I believe...
tried that, still says "windows does not recognize usb device"
I've had this happen on my 4g before. Your boot.IMG is borked. A nandroid restore will fix it.
Next time, click the create phone Rom button several times to ensure it took.

have you installed boot manager in MIUI from play store? You should boot phone ROM from it.
If you get stuck , all you need to do is flash update.zip located in bootmanger/phonerom folder from recovery, if you are s-on you can't flash the update.zip without booting recovery from fastboot or without using 4ext recovery.....
Next time do a little search outside xda too. The boot manager's site has a guide and faqs and solutions too.
if you had setup the zr3d rom with bootmanager, flash the same rom again and flash the update.zip.....see if that works
i cannot boot back into any rom. I tried everything in recovery. no matter what my device hangs on the htc screen.
Why not just reformat your sd after backing it up. Then reflash your recovery. Then do a full wipe and flash a rom.

I can get into recovery, I can flash images and use it just fine, why would i reflash it? also i flashed it from android so i wouldnt know where to begin to do so.
I have been searching for instructions (with download) on how to relock my bootloader via fastboot connected to a pc. But unable to find what I am looking for. If I can just relock the bootloader sprint will give me a new one.
So now my new problem is please direct me to the files, instructions and commands to relock my bootloader, and of course all the other good stuff.
Thank you all very much for your time spent helping me sort out this issue.
EDIT: I can get my phone to connect via the bootloader in "fastboot usb" mode, Its the PC end where I am lost.
what version of the phone do you have? gsm? cdma? what software version do you have and what hboot and recovery?

here... take this file im sending you and download it and save it in the same folder as your fastboot and adb files and once its saved there start your phone into the bootloader... the part where you get it to say fasyboot usb... then go to your computer and PM me from three ill give you further instructions to fix it and then relock it if you choose to
You don't flash an exe you run it from your pc while your phone is plugged in and on charge mode only. Also make sure usb debugging is checked. Also the reason why I suggest to flash a new recovery or reflash your current recovery is that sometimes recoveries can become corrupt. Just because you can flash doesn't mean your recovery is functioning the way it should. So rather than try to figure out if your recovery is corrupt it takes like 5min to reflash it. That way you rule out your recovery as being the culprit.

Well I am sitting here in fastboot usb via the bootloader with no knowledge of how to flash, unlock/lock, or what to do now for anything via fastboot usb.
EDIT: To rule out that its not my recovery, how do I flash ext4 or cwm from recovery or fastboot?
Windows 7
I got it now.
Finally found the sdk.
fastboot oem lock.
Bootloader took my 2.17 Ruu
My phone is HTC EVO 3D, and it's bricking after the ICS update from provider. It hangs on the HTC logo. I read numerous post about flashing it with update or rom, but it's now S-ON and when I try to flash from SD card in recovery it gives me :
Invalid Operation
Rebooting Reasonem-00
As far as I know I have to get it to S-OFF before I can use recovery to flash it, but I tried revolutionary and seems like it require the phone in a working state to function. Currently when I run revolutionary with usb connected on HBOOT-1.49.0008 menu revolutionary won't connect. I don't have CWM either and I don't know how to get it onto the phone without Market Place and S-ON.
Is there anyway to get it to S-OFF so I can move forward to fix my phone with any working rom? Fastboot is connecting no problem (at HBOOT menu) but I don't know if it allows me to flash or turn it to S-OFF.
Thanks in advance.

I don't have your phone but I know that if u search it you might be able to get the official ics update for your device and the put it on your sd card and update from the boot loader and your phone would probably boot up and be fine but like i said Google it bc you probably have to rename the file something special. I'm kinda a noob so sorry if this didn't help

the RUU from Rogers wouldn't update either.
I'm not able to flash the Clockwork Mod to the recovery using fastboot.
I tried flashing King Cobra but after the flash the phone still doesn't boot. I'm still on S-ON. Revolutionary still won't connect...
I read this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560279&page=21
that says I can flash the rom with S-ON with 4Ext recovery. But I can't do anything with the downloaded apk file as my phone doesn't boot up properly to the system. Where can I find the recovery img to flash it manually with fastboot?
Thanks.
Fixed this by:
1) Getting the official RUU on ICS.
2) Connect USB in HBOOT
3) Use fastboot to relock the bootloader
4) Run RUU on Windows and successfully flashed everything
So seems like S-ON pluse unlocked bootloader means no no to both official rom and custom rom.
First of all i've been searching for a way to fix this for hours now without a solution.
My problem is as follows:
i installed official miui beta and got stuck with a boot loop, i was running 4text recovery but i wanted to try something different so i flashed twrp recovery in fastboot. however whenever i try to go into recovery now it just reboots and goes into boot loop again, so i cannot access recovery or boot into my rom.
I have tried flashing several recoverys via fastboot but each time it just reboots and does not enter recovery.
i have also tried rebooting into recovery using fastboot reboot recovery and adb reboot recovery but still it didn't work.
i have flashed another boot.img but now it just gets stuck on miui screen instead of boot loop
is there any way i can get any recoverys to work? i have tried looking for a 4text recovery.img as 4text was the last recovery to work but i can only seem to find the app that flashes it.
i have also tried flashing a rom through fastboot by typing fasboot flash zip rom.zip but it just says failure.
i am now downloading RUU_SHOOTER_U_ICS_35_S_HTC_Europe_3.28.401.1_radio_11.77.3504.00U_11.25.3504. and am going to try rename it to PG86IMG and update through bootloader after relocking it and then unlocking it again but i am not sure that will work.
in short i flashed a new recovery but it just reboots device when i try and enter it and the rom i am on happens to be stuck on boot loop so i cannot get in rom or recovery and flashing a new recovery does not work.
BTW i am S-ON HBOOT-1.49.0018
sorry for the lengthy post and also any grammatical errors as i am tired

The whole problem, which is always the problem is you are S-ON. The MIUI rom will NOT run unless you install the newest firmware. You cannot install the newest firmware with S-ON because it is locked up in a partition that you cannot access unless you go s-off.
Has nothing to do with the recovery. I've been using 4ext recovery pretty much the whole time I've owned my EVO 3d and never had one single problem with it.
There are roms you can run with s-on but not the MIUI one.

cool, didn't know that, my problem now then is how can i reflash a different rom, bearing in mind that i cannot access recovery? do you think putting the pg86img stock ruu thingy on my sd and letting bootloader install that will work?

I do believe that if you are s-on, you should be able to relock the phone and then run the rru from your computer.

My next step was to relock it and run the ruu through bootloader, can you do it through computer/fastboot?
Sorry, I haven't been on the forum for a while.
Read the following link,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194053&highlight=relock
It should help you with the process.
The rru file you have should be an executable file that the name ends with "signed.exe" if memory serves. I do believe you can run this from your windows desktop if you are using windows. The link above has the adb command to use to relock the phone.
Once you are up and running again, you can install an ics rom even if you have s-on. I am running one but there are a few steps you need to do in the correct order so you don't end up where you are.
Good luck and have a great weekend!

Hey guys. Recently I installed a new rom all went well and I rebooted for the second time after the set up. Now my phone just shows the white hero on black background. Vibrates once or twice and then just stays there.. the sd card is completely inaccessible. I can get to fastboot and have the following info there:
Hero cvt ship s-on
HBoot-1.76.007 (hero1000)
Mirop-010f
Touchpanel-syn0104
Radio-6.35.17.03

I can boot to recovery:
CWM - based recovery v5.0.2.8
In recovery nothing works and the phone will try to boot if u don't move up and down
It won't mount the ad card for external storage, it won't wipe or do anything related to the sd.
When I connect to the pc I can hear windows doing the "ding" but nothing pops up and the device doesn't show.
Any help would be appreciated.
Rip out your SD from your phone, plug it into your PC and put a ROM on it, flash it, if you cant wipe or anything flash it without wiping, if it works then do the wipe and reflash. I would recommend you to use CM7 stock unmodded. If that doesnt work get the RUU for your device and flash it ...
Thanx but it doesn't work. When I go to fastboot it says "No image or wrong image".
I can not extract the .IMG from a RUU as the pc doesnt detect the phone.
Fastboot probably doesnt work since your phone is S-ON, you need to S-OFF it to flash custom .img's. When your phone goes to HERO on boot, in left top corner does it show FASTBOOT USB ?
Nope it doesn't. Shouldn't my phone be S-Off when its rooted?
No, when it's rooted that just allows you to use flash_image to flash recovery to recovery partition. S-OFF is needed to flash .img's to partitions directly. If you want to flash an image then you need S-OFF. If you want to flash a .zip via CMW you dont need S-OFF
OK so firstly how do I get it to S-Off and secondly how do I get a Img that I can flash?
To get S-OFF go to http://www.htcdev.com/ or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1471460
I HAVE NOT TESTED EITHER, SINCE I DONT USE IT, YOU ARE FLASHING THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK. Just to say . If this goes wrong you can just use your phone to wipe your ass
Lol Thanx man! As it is, its pretty damn useless so anything is worth a try!
If you manage to S-OFF i think it will be solvable
I hope so, although its still a struggle to do.
I have no os on my phone anymore, i have no idea where to even start. Ive been searching and searching forever now.
S-On
Hboot- 2.28
No Backup and Non-Root as well
Bootloader Unlocked
Is there anything i can do? I know the Hboot 2.28 RUU hasnt came out yet that i know of and researched of as well....Thanks in advance!
Your fine, did you just wipe everything or re-did the ruu?
If your did the ruu than you need to get your recovery back in your phone
If you just wiped everything in recovery than you need to download the ROM you want to use than install the zip in recovery but don't boot into it yet. Pull the battery and boot into bootloader and go into fastboot. Than on your PC take the boot.img file out of the ROM zip you just installed and flash it over ADB.
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
If you need any more help or questions I can continue to help or others will pop in
Edit: IF your trying to get back to just stock than you need to ruu again http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
You need to have a locked bootloader when flashing the ruu,
After downloading the file, rename it to "PH98IMG.zip" (no quotes)
Place the renamed file onto the root of the SD Card
Than boot into bootloader and it should load it up and install it, make sure to just leave it be. The phone might turn off than back on by itself once during the installation and that's normal, it'll continue installing and it will let you know when its finished

Add a rom zip file to your external sd card via your computer. And install it via yiur custom recovery. If for some reason you don't have a custom recovery, use Odin to go back to stock.

Ok ive got a ROM installed but every time i try to flash the Boot.img it says "Failed (data transfer failure)"
