G2 Touch Stock RUU? - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been trying to root my G2 Touch and have used the goldcard method.
I can only find the latest tmobile RUU (2.73) which can't be rooted!
Is there anywhere the stock (1.73) tmobile RUU is?
Regards

Signed update zip is here>> http://www.4shared.com/file/133081624/c5e35fa0/update-hero-t-mobile-1761106-s.html if any good.

Is there a reason for you to use goldcard on your G2? On mine (got at end of last month), it was the original unlocked 1.73 version, and it had an unlocked bootloader, allowing me to use fastboot to boot a custom recovery image (AmonRA) and then do a nandroid backup before flashing an update.zip
Presuming you need to use goldcard, I would have thought that a generic HTC version would have done. So long as it is 1.73, I think it would work fine, since the purpose of the goldcard (IIRC) is to ignore the carrier id and let you install the stock HTC ROM onto the device. From there you could root and flash the recovery partition to allow installation of custom roms.
So in conclusion-
-You might not actually need to use a goldcard, but if you do,
-Give the generic HTC 1.73 ROM a shot
BTW, I haven't personally tried this, so hopefully someone who knows a bit more about this can confirm if this would work, but I reckon it should. If possible, take a nandroid backup first, but this might be a bit difficult if fastboot doesn't work for you.

Yea I needed the goldcard because I did the 2.73 RUU lag update which I didn't know could not be rooted :/

worked perfectly for me

You're using a tmobile G2 Touch right? I'm sure I tried this and it brought up the [131] customer ID error lol.. I'll try again though Thanks

yep i am, long story short i had a problem with and i had to apply the official so i could send it back to tmob for repair and once i got it back, i started to follow the video done by lockr and i got the [131] customer ID error when trying to use stock (1.73) ruu, saw the forum post use that ruu worked perfectly

I still got [131] error...
Where did you find the stock (1.73) RUU? The only one I can find is the 2.73, which is my current one.

i didn't use the 1.73 ruu, i used the 2.73 and i used that ruu i'm sorry that i can't help you :-(

Arr okay no worries I'll just wait until the 2.1 rom is released and hope that has some holes in! Thanks for trying

How about one of the first 2 RRUs from this page?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559622

None of the WWE RUU's seem to work... Only the tmobile one :/

Sounds like the goldcard isn't working properly
It is what makes any old RRU work, as it disables the Carried ID check which means only T-Mobile RRUs work for you. Seems strange...
Personally, I'd try making the goldcard again.

Yea I made the Goldcard twice on the same SD, so maybe its the SD card thats the problem... I try using some others I have somewhere

Iirc, the default micro SD card (2gn) that came with the phone works correctly. I've had a think and I reckon the goldcard is definitely the problem, as a working goldcard will accept any try file, such as the one I referenced before.
Give that a shot and if you have trouble, just try other cards until it works, but I reckon the stock card is your best bet for now. The HTC 1.73 rru should work after that.

I never recieved the stock 2gb card as I bought off an eBay seller...
But lucikily I had one lying about and created the goldcard and loaded the WWE RUU sucessfully, Thanks for your advice!

Downgraded G2 Touch, need help! :)

So
My problem is i cant use RUU because it gaves me Device ID Fail error. i have downgraded my G2 Touch from 2.73.116.61 (special hungarian t-mobile rom ) to 2.73.405.5 with Goldcard & RUU. Then, i've put a rooted rom(2.73.405.38), and the newest radio rom (*.09.26) with Cyanogen's recovery image. I'd like to know how could i put back the 2.73.405.5 rom with RUU, or any other rom with RUU, to make it stock HTC Hero? My T-Mobile havent came out with any update for the phone, so i cant try out that RUU
My point is when the Android 2.1 will come out for HTC Hero, then i'd like to upgrade too. Thanks for help!
btw: i've been searching for solutions for lot of days, so dont say "use google" if u cant give me specific solution, thanks
Alrighty,
If it was me, I would use the goldcard to RUU back to the earliest ROM possible (1.73). Then install a custom recovery like AmonRA, and use an update.zip to give you the stock Hero rom. (once you downgrade the ROM to 1.73, you can use fastboot to load the recovery image, so you don't even have to flash the recovery. This is as close to stock as you'll get.)
For the update.zip file for the stock hero, see http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/291942/gsm-24-11-hero-roms-radios-in-update-zip-format/. The one you are after is the second one down under 'shipping ROMs'
An alternative way to do this is to use the goldcard to install the exe (RUU) for the version you want. It's up to you.
So in short, use the goldcard again to RUU to what you want.
Goldcard is in the phone all the time, im using the stock memory card. If i do the goldcard it will be goldcard forever, atleast others said that. I've tried formatting the card, no luck
people have said that gold card method wont work on stock memory card so you have to go buy like a 4gb or 8gb card then put gold card on there and it should work fine.
I have stock memory card, and successfully made the goldcard, and downgraded my g2 touch, as the topic's name states it. i checked my goldcard stock memorycard with HxD, with i previously made my goldcard, and realised the first 17 line is zero, as the stock values were i think. i checked if i put the goldcard values back there, its different, so, is it possible the RUU made the goldcard stock? When the new android 2.1 ruu come out for hero i'll make the memorycard goldcard again, and check if its workin.
IIRC, it should NOT all be zeroes for the first 17 lines. I would make the goldcard again (you could even do it now so you have it working and ready for use). It shouldn't take too long since you've done it before, and will possibly have the tools needed downloaded to your PC already.
HTH
solved
at last i've done the goldcard procedure again, and it stood the same, i put the newest rom, working like a charm

help in rooting 3 mobile hero

i bought my phone unlocked from the 3 mobile network UK. i
it had build 2.73.771.62 CL#80033 release-keys
first question, can i root this as is? many guides say to downgrade but none of the ruus seem to be compatible. cid errors.
second, which ruus can i downgrade to anyway? it has to be an original 3 mobile rom right?
third, which was the first available 3 mobile build.
last, im i screwed wrt rooting?
EDIT:
adb devices lists my hero, however, fastboot doesnt. this means it cant be rooted as is right?
does the CID error mean i didnt do the goldcard method correctly? i was worried when i had a letter in my cid generation after cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid
H3G released their first Rom this week. Prior to this were pre installed.
To root yours follow Goldcard method or this one>>>
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=559613
Treat it as though you have flashed rom currently running in your Hero.
im more comfortable doing the goldcard method.
using goldcard, is it ok to have a letter in the cid? cos i have one and fear thats the reason mine isnt working. we're working with hex so alphabets are ok, ignore.
also, which ruu do you recommend i use to downgrade.
btw, what do you mean by "treat it as though you have flashed rom currently in you hero" you mean like i have upgraded it already?
thanks.
Yes if you are following second option. But ignore what I stated. Personally I am more comfortable with non goldcard therory simply because you could be near complition and getting frustrated only to find that your cd card is at fault.
There have been several cases of sd card let down.
mine seems to be letting me down too. ive used the stock and some other samsung card. cid errors still. btw, what allocation size im i to use to format? or is formatting with the phone ok.
ended up trying flashrec .. backup failed.
installing the patched recovery image didnt work either, new hboot.
---------------
so i cant install the patched recovery image because of the new hboot
which is because of the build im running on, so my only option is installing a previous build to get the old hboot
but 3 mobiles earliest build is 2.73.771.62 ... which is what im using
so i have to install a build from another network, hence need to goldcard ... which seems to be failing
---------------
^^ correct above if im wrong ^^
i think im going to cry. i cant use my phone until i do this cos i cant imagine setting everything up again.
what do you advise?
I think according to post #23 it is possible to root.
Anybody successfully rooted his/her Hero from 3 network? How did you manage to do it? Possible to give some guides to member arimozuki??
Thanks.
OMG! finally done ... thanks for all your help!
i was randomly looking at my friends 5800, asked for his 8gb card, plugged in, goldcarded and downgrade worked!!! w00t. but this was a week ago; needless to say, my phone is not a virgin anymore ... alot of rape
thanks much.
I know the thread is old but I would just like to add the Hero on 3 can now be rooted using Androot, which allows you to avoid the goldcard method. Was able to root, flash a recovery image, backup and put a new rom on with minimal fuss

How to put back original HTC 2.1 software?

Hello,
I have G2 Touch and few months ago I successfully restored is as HTC Hero with HTC 2.1 firmware (official).
Eventually, I rooted the device and put custom ROM.
Now I am selling the phone and would like to return to HTC 2.1 firmware. What is the easiest way?
Thanks
I suppose this guide is okay for me, but please someone confirm?

flash the original RUU off the htc website
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=283&cat=2&dl_id=775 That isn't 2.1, but once you have rolled back to that I guess you may be able to get the 2.1 update OTA or something
Edit or just flash a generic rom via the recovery image.
I cannot download from there "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
Can I use tutorial I mentioned above? The Generic HTC 2.1 RUU
yeah download that and give it a shot - should work fine, wouldn't have thought you would have to do anything apart from flash the RUU via your PC.
Try to go to your T-mobile-site (in whichever country you are from) Find Support -> Downloads, and search for your phones manufacturer (T-mobile) and find G2. I think you will be able to install original updates from there
Ok, I will use this file I linked already.
Just one more questions, do I need to do any wipes from Recovery Mode?
No, you don't. RUU recoveres everything (Radio, SPL, ROM, etc.), so there's no need to wipe. And remember, before flashing your phone bring original Recovery back.

Unlocked Amaze couldn't obtain OTA upgrade

I am using US tmobile amaze overseas so the only convenient solution for me was to buy an unlock code online. Now it has been unlocked. Ok, I was aware of the OTA upgrade since december time, but everytime I checked for upgrade in About Phone it turned out to say no update for me. And I am also aware the upgrade was planned to stop delivering in mid Jan, so I would have missed it forever.
Now the question: Are unlocked phone not eligible for pushed updates?
I am aware of the stock roms compiled by xboarders especially the deodex 1.43.531.5 version, but it must need custom recovery to install. Any other way for me to install the said version without wipeout?

Not Development related.
this is a question and not a development for the amaze. please post in correct section next time (General). Being that the phone is unlocked does not matter since you have not modified any system files. You also need to post more information like what carrier and what version are you on and trying to update to?
Binary, Would you please move this where it belongs. Thnx

Right. The phone has not been modified. I have tried the phone on Vodafone and Three UK during the update, but couldn't receive the OTA update, not even via wifi. My version is 1.36.531.5 TMOUS, wanting 1.43.531.5 TMOUS.
Thank you
It will not update because of the custom recovery.

OP didn't say he has installed custom recovery so that has nothing to do with it. Sounds like his phone is stock. I'm not sure how OTA updates work when you're on another network other than Tmobile. I know that my Telus phone will never see an OTA update.

It will not upgrade bc the update is carrier related. According to HTC when I called, but I remember hearing a menu for support in europe. I had called in for something else. Although you can try contacting them. Also if you dont care about your warranty being voided then I suggest you unlock bootloader, root and flash the update manually or flash a custom rom. For non us customers your update should be 1.46 i think.

other than flashing a custom rom, only other way i can think of is this, it'll keep your bootloader locked, stock recovery, just like a brand new amaze with the ota update, but it will wipe absolutely everything...

Exactly.
Just backup your data to your external sdcard, backup your internal sdcard to your computer, download the PH85IMG.zip file for 1.43 rom, relock your bootloader if you haven't done so already (or have done it at all), place the PH85IMG.zip (named as such) onto the root of your external sdcard, boot into bootloader and flash the file.
Afterwards restore your backups.
hmmm makes me wonder now.. what kind of unlocked did the op mean? network unlock to use overseas or bootloader unlocked

He said he he's overseas and bought an unlock coded online. That can only mean network unlock.

My phone is on stock rom, stock bootloader, stock recovery, everything is stock. Perhaps I didn't put it right in the root. Can you guys specify the root location? I mean /what?

Did you relock your bootloader?
mine was doing that too for awhile, so what i did was make sure the ONLY thing on my external sdcard was the PH85IMG.zip file, after that the phone recognized it without any problems
Are you sure it's not named as PH85IMG.zip.zip? When you downloaded the file, did you add the .zip extension? If so, remove the 2nd .zip extension, and you should be golden.

It's incorrect. I got that update straightway in December - in fact my Amaze is being used overseas and therefore certainly unlocked from T-Mobile..

[Q] cant unlock bootloader or flash stock rom htc legend help

HI hope someone can help me with this, i have tried without success to unlock my bootloader, i have updated to hboot 1.02 but when i try to do the fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin it sits at 0percent and doesn't move and no errors, i've tried this with my goldcard in and out of the phone and with cyanogen and b08 roms, also for some reason i can't flash the stock rom so i can get the required update from htc(thinking that's y the unlock code won't go), i've tried getting numerous ruu's and i was getting signature verification fails every time, i tried with windows the exe and also exracted the rom.zip and still no luck, i prefer using linux and adb though and tried numerous ways to get this to work with no success, i've also tried signing a rom.zip and the phone just says no signature, also tried renaming to LEGEIMG.zip and update.zip and just can't flash stock rom, also made a new goldcard thinking the other was bad and did the htcdev for the unlock code with a goldcard and without, also tried the ruu.exe in windows with new said goldcard and i think the other was bad because i get a different error now for reason it can't update my rom(was using the rom i originally rooted with which has sense). it says wrong bootloader version when i try and update, anyone know what i can do, i'm running outta ideas, thanks in advance
I Unlocked my bootloader with HTCdev. You said you tried. What went wrong?
If you have updated your phone to one of the ruus HTC gives you ( execute the exe ), there shouldn't be any problem : the HTC guide is clear and easy. If you have successuffly unlocked the bootloader, now you have to flash the clockwork recovery.
when i go to fastboot it stays on copying at 0 percent with the unlock_code.bin....My phone has root access before i ran the hboot update and still does but i can't flash the new ruu, it won't allow me to, i tried running the htc ruu and it fails with can't update, bootloader version incorrect, i tried with the b-08 rom, i can't get back to stock
Have you tried flashing this? ----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497357
If you don't install one of the updates given by HTC, bootloader unlock won't work. If you have the same problems that I had ( my Legend also wasn't rooted ) the RUUs won't install, right? I flashed first this one and then one of the HTC RUUs and after this everything worked perfectly.
nope, i didn't try that one yet, but the thing is my legend was rooted before i tried flashing these htc ruus, i just want my bootloader unlocked, i had cyanogen on it then flashed a rooted one with sense (b08) thinking that would let me update but it didn't, so i'm downloading that one you pointed me to now, i'll try and flash it and let you know how it goes.
When i flash that rom i get a main version is older error when i rename it to LEGEIMG and flash it via fastboot, what can i do now?
I followed Blayo's guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22613990&postcount=62 with my already rooted Legend. Try to follow exactly. You said using a gold card - don't think this is even necessary. At least I did not use one, and it is working perfectly.
After flashing the new bootloader, did you really unlock?
(last step of guide above: follow the instructions on HTCdev from Step 8 to unlock)
Wait, all the RUUs you have to flash before unlocking are HTC's executable files ( .exe ). You have updated your phone executing them, haven't you? After that I just rebooted my phone to fastboot and connected it. I found the unlock code, sent it to HTCdev, received an e-mail with the file to complete unlock and then unlocked. I never used anything like UPDATE.zip or LEGEIMG. I tried following the BlaYo's instructions but they didn't work for me. I just did what HTC said ( easyer and safer ).

i solved my problem, i sold the phone and bought another legend.

I have a similar problem with my Legend i had already rooted my legend following this guide http://chrg.zxq.net/htc-legend-root.html. I decided to unlock the bootloader folowing the guide on HTC dev to the letter and it worked fine bootloader unlocked. Only prolem is after rooting the phone again and flashing cm7 the bootloader is now locked again. What to do any ideas id be very greatfull.

What do you mean with 'rooting again'? Once you have unlocked bootloader, you are able to flash a recovery, and then CM, which is rooted. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24102979 for latest Recovery and latest CM7.2 builds
Ok just to update i flashed the HTC dev bin file again and had restore cm7 backup and bootloader is unlocked once again.
got her goin good now, unlocked bootloader with htcdev, fastboot flashed cwm, then i was able to flash cm7.2 and gapps no problem at all, now if we could only s-off the legend???

After unlocking boot loader:
1. Use htcsupertoolv3 to root
2. Install rom manager and titanium backup
3. Run titanium backup. It will ask you to update su. accept (i'm not sure if this step is required, but this is how i done it)
4. Copy recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-legend to your Android folder created during bootloader unlock
5. With your phone on fastboot mode open terminal in your PC android folder and type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-legend.img
Your phone will go to recovery mode.
6. Reboot your phone in normal mode
7. From now on, each time you want to go into recovery, use rom manager
Done

So for what I have understood from HTCdev, you can do everything similar to S-OFF, with one exception: you cannot unlock a SIM lock.
