[Q] HTC Legend Downgrade Issues. - Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! I haven't wanted to post on the forums, but it seems I'm left with nothing else.
I need help downgrading my Legend! It's running Android 2.2 and build 3.15.
I get stuck getting permissions.
I'm given back
"c---rw---- 1 1001 2002 90, 0 Aug 28 20:03 /dev/mtd/mtd0"

I've done a factory reset (many times) and I've uninstalled/reinstalled everything and followed guides to the point.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Could someone help me out?
Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem back when I tried to root my legend, I think it has to do with your hboot being 1.01.. Go read that guide instead and try it that way.. and make sure you do everything exactly like they say!
Here's the link to the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223950
Hope that helps .

Thanks primo, I'm just trying it now.
My internet's the worst, having to download r4-legend-root will take some time!
I'll post back when it's done, thanks again!
EDIT: I've done it all up to step 18. I run step2-windows.bat, but it says my device is offline.
Did you experience this at all?

helppp...!!! pls
im too on h boot 1.01 ive on trmproot by visinory+ run commands as givenn in chirags guide but im stuck now!! .everytime i run ruu legend htc wwe 1.31 it shows error (131)

Very good.
if i'm on stock rooted and need to unroot, would i need to flash the eng build first then this image or just this? or is it also possible by just a factory reset?

No need to go to the eng build. As to go to the eng build you would use another img file.

Factory Ship Espresso Rom​
Ive Decided to Post the Factory Rom due to Request & I've already saw one or two Problems from the Phone so far, and thought it would be a good idea to give everyone the Option to go back to Stock!!
Just Rename > ESPRIMG(2).zip
to ESPRIMG.zip & place on the Root of your Sdcard..
1.
Power Off the Phone either by Power Down / Battery Pull..
2.
Hold Volume Down + Power Button..
3.
Walk away, get a soda / Give the Better half a Kiss or two
4.
Hit the Volume Up key to Confirm to Flash.
Once Done you will have a Stock Espresso Phone again..

I however got mine from my HTC buddy at the Same Time I got the Eng-Build I posted for everyone.. Mine was Designed for the OTA Update that bring you into 1.27.531.1,
The one you Posted is already 1.27.531.1! lmao!!!
They are not the Same Version.. Please Look at the android-info.txt

Thanks Bro I was stuck on the T-mobile boot screen and this image worked. The one from eugene373 does not work it says something like newer or older version and it fails
Thanks wesgarner I would start a new thread and make it a sticky
also thanks eugene373 for all of the roms without you I would have never got my mt3g but for some reason wesgarners worked and yours didnt.
It might be cause I took out my sim card when I used wesgarners i never removed my sim card when using yours, it my need to be a added step.
Thanks

OP Updated !! Now has the Correct info need if people want to flash this build
To use my Image, you will need to flash the mtd0.img I have posted in the eng-build thread.. So you can Downgrade if needed..
But you need a Rooted Phone First..
Wes Rom is Pure Stock though that comes with the Factory Release Phones
so is this a rom or what?
im confused whats special about im curious

wes do we follow the same instructions as eugene listed?
Ok I'm a little confused. So in order to use this esprimg we need to repeat the same steps again that we did for the eng build or can we simply just put this in the root of the sd card and go into bootloader?
This is the Rom that was On all the TMO employee before Launch!
If you need or have to ask, then likely this wont be much good for you, it's just another Alt. Factory image we have if you want to play with it.. Nothing more
I know it just takes you back to factory but I'd like to know exactly how to do it if ever need be...
Use Wes Rom he Posted..
Regarding the Instructions, I posted them in the OP

I understand what you mean and how to use this rom but when I was stuck on the Mytouch boot screen I am unable to use adb to push.
With wes image i just had to place it in the sdcard and load into Fastboot mode with Volume Down button and Power and it loaded all of the images and took me back to stock.
Either way thanks eugene373 I think that you are so knowledgeable with these device that's its harder for average person like me to follow thanks again

Oh, then I clearly didn't understand what you mean, & for that I'm sorry
Yeah for something like that, you will have to use Wes Factory restore..
I am new to the whole rooting of android phones so please don't haze me too badly for potentially asking a stupid question;
I was successful in rooting my mytouch 3g slide and installed slidemr5 rom onto it. I did not like how light the rom was and some other general things i wasn't expecting so i found this thread and used this rom to revert back to the factory settings and it worked great (thanks eugene and wes). I was under the impression i would be using my stock rom and the phone would still be rooted but when I go to install apps that require root it says that I am not on a rooted phone. Is this normal or did I do something incorrectly? If it's normal than is there a way for me to have this build/rom and the phone still be rooted? Again I apologize for asking a dumb question, I've made it pretty far in this entire process w/o having to post on a forum yet..

members help

afrer many hrs upon hrs of trying to fix my htc one x +
i need some help.
i dont no if its out there but i need a standard ruu for a htc one x + on vodaphone uk with a hboot 1.40
it may not even be out there but if it is and u can help be much appreciated
bought this hox + for my sons birthday was fine till i got home re-set it
im unable to return it to vodafone as i bought it from gumtree classifieds so im left with a brick
i have no idea what to try next any help be much appreciated ty.
You've been told how to fix it already
Sent from my HTC One X+ using Tapatalk 2
my dumbass freind relocked the device and tried to return to stock with ruu
now i carnt even adb sideload cause ive lost recovery
when he tried to re flash the ruu he downloaded it failed on hboot because its 1.40
i need a europe vodafone rom with hboot 1.40
so yes im stuck totally now.
lol friend or you?
regardless, a little bit of searching by yourself would have found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066390
its ok i give up ill send it to htc pay the repair cost or find a repair shop local see if they can do anything
rang htc on phone told me it would need a new motherboard cost £150
to say im more than pissed of is putting it mild.
just been to a vodafone store they have taken the phone and are going to update the firmware on there pc
i think with latest jelly bean.
will this work even though its stuck on the screen with recovery bootload etc ?
Why don't you listen to other members like Lloir? He gave you what you searched for and now you are ignoring his answer and just doing what you want. What they are doing now at the store is run the proper RUU file of vodafone and then you will have a stock device again. You have to be in bootloader to run a RUU setup, so no worry's there.
Do a proper backup when you have another try at flashing custom software m8!
cmon dude Lloir and i have told you several times what to do and that you can't use the ruu if you have 1.40 hboot. i also tried to stay in contact hand take you literally by the hand on going back to stock and i must admit, the fact that you are just ignoring the help and efforts of other users just pisses me off.
but good, waste your money and our time
im not ignoring your help i have given my phone to a guy who knows a little more about getting it work than me
i have pointed him to the other thread and your pm`s
i just needed to walk away for a while take a deep breath and start again if this guy carnt do it i will give it another go
this time doing it step by step.
and i thank you for all your help and i will need your help again if the other guy has no luck.
the thing im finding hard is were to unzip the files what programs need to go were
and the cmd commands because non of the ones i ran worked.
i appreciate all your help very much.
the other guy said its software issue not motherboard so what ever happens im not spending £150 at htc service centre if it takes
me a week ill get it working myself.

Hey people.
I rooted my ANDROID HTC ONE from T mobile, using a guide I found on here and the all in one toolkit.
I am using TWRP newest 2.5.0.0, I can access the bootloader and recovery, and have been sat here now looking for answers for about 5 hours.
It freezes on the HTC quietly brilliant screen.
Also says that there is no OS installed.
I am looking for help via TEAMVIEWER, or someway to get my phone working.
If you need more information please let me now ASAP so I can give it you.
UPDATE: Okay people I successfully installed the XenonHD ROM and it is now stuck in bootloop i have tried clearing the cache and it doesn't do anything, this is the only ROM that is currently working.
I have searched the net searched the post and still nothing.
I am almost got my phone back guys and am willing to DONATE or repay the favour via modding something through XBOX or whatever I can.

There have been a lot of posts on similar issues. You can "sideload" a ROM via ADB commands from your computer. If you can get into recovery, your phone can be fixed. I haven't done this myself (still stock), but do a search on google or xda on sideloading a ROM from ADB.

Did you clear the cache? Also, I've seen some people have to format the partitions.
EDIT: But formatting does not seem to be needed if you sideloaded successfully.

You have to be careful with No o.s installed .
Normally if u reboot when u see that you'll brick.
Without a o.s you have no bootloader..
I bricked my s3 and had to jtag it when it said no o.s I rebooted and black blank screen nothing.
I've had this happen also when choosing format system and format data /media some reason it botches the boot up .
My only fix was to sideload a rom or wipe factory and restore a nandroid .

my recomendation is that you get s -off and supercid asap so next time you run into a similar problem you can just install any ruu(note only do this if your phone has no official ruu) and work it out from there.

What you need to do is this exactly .
Dload a rom on pc reboot recovery on phone first .IMORTANT FIRST FORMAT SYSTEM.
Then when that's done choose factory reset.
Rename the rom to Rom.zip or anything you want but make sure it says.zip
Sometimes sideload won't work if roms not renamed , that's mentioned in another thread about sideloading.
Then sideload the rom
Let it load and install .
When it reboots itl take a while .
I just did this to my HTC one the other day after I got stuck after formating data media .

Yeah my phone is currently working now, but I have no play store nor do I now if my phone is rooted.
I have a custom ROM on it XenonHD. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2290785
That one.
Just currently trying to get to grips on how to work it and that.
I can't download the playstore because it says it is currently installed but it is nowhere to be seen.

[q] decrypt message on evo 4g lte running meanbeam

Hi guys DEVs and NOOBs. Here's the issue: Son's unlockecd phone started restarting by itself. 2 weeks ago he said he looked at it and it was in safe mode. Since then it was restarting. Now it's asking for decrypt password. Never put one on so I don't know what it is. Phone is running Mikey's MeanBean (who no longer supports this) and is S-Offed. I've done all kind of restarts (hot, normal, boot loader) and it starts up normally but when it comes to the screen unlock BOOM...Decrypt password. And it restarts in airplane mode. The only thing I can do when doing screen unlock is make emer. calls. I'm hoping that I don't have to completely wipe the phone (but copied files on SD just in case). HELP!!!
I would suggest running an RUU. Possibly the latest that will update you to android 4.3 and sense 5. It will wipe internal storage so back up if you can.

For info how to install the RUU, click the top link in my sig and scroll down to the section on RUU's.
I've downloaded the RUU file to my pc but there weren't any instructions on how to install. What are the next steps? It's my first time having to do this in like forever and I don't want to brick the phone.
I have TWRP. Could I take the phone back to stock from there and then just download Sense 5?
UPDATE: So sorry. Didn't read your response correctly. Off I go to try this! Thanks! I'll thank you again once it works!
UPDATE
So I've managed to relock the bootloader thanks to QbKing77. However, I need to proceed with throwing on the RUU given to me but QbKing77 suggests that downloading the HTC drivers. The link on his website for the drivers is dead. Does anyone else know where I can get them?
Just install HTC Sync.
Success!!

I just wanted to say thanks for the help. I fixed it and my son is loving the new look! Now I don't have to put him out of the house for saying he wanted an iPhone! Told him "Look, you wouldn't be able to do all this with that fruit fly phone!" Thanks again! :good:
Glad to help:thumbup:

[help ] i need htc one s9 firmware or custom rom

Hi Guys
device's software crashed and remaind on the logo screen.
and device's rooted and unlocked. TWRP installed
I need custom rom or orjinal rom help
CID:HTC__621
LK: 1.01.0000
OS: 2.30.709.2
If you already took S-Off, I have the RUU for 2.32.401.1 version that I can send you. But you will need to change CID and MID (hence the S-off...). Otherwise I will have to download 2.30.709.2 and upload it but I reached my data limit today, I can do that tomorrow. Let me know.
I uploaded the RUU for 2.30.709.2. Here it is

If I helped feel free to donate

If you wouldn't mind uploading the RUU for 2.32.401.1 I would greatly appreciate it. What CID and MID would be necessary for 2.32.401.1 ?

The RUU I posted above is for One S9 ! Not for One M9s, nor for One M9 prime camera edition.
I'll check if I have a RUU for HTC One M9s but I don't know if you will be able to flash it now.
Can you still access to the booloader ?
edit : check this thread
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the RUU
I tried to instal it, but I have 'Zip file is corrupt'
An idea ?

what method did you use for flashing?
Did you check file size / try to download file again ?

I did this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/one-s9/how-to/root-twrp-s-off-how-to-root-htc-one-s9-t3459595
Yep I tried re-downloading it, not better: s
OK... That's a Root method. That's not how you flash a RUU. You can't flash an RUU from recovery.
You need to flash from fastboot (computer) or rename and place on root of your SD card and start in download mode.
I suggest you search and read tutorials on how to do that

8.0 Android ROM for the HTC One S9?
Please help me !
Sorry to bump this but for unknown reasons my S9 stopped booting. It is same as OP (Asia 621, OS 2.30.709.2, LK-1.01.000), but completely stock, never unlocked, and unfortunately I hadn't even enabled the "unlock bootloader" in developer options, so now I can't even unlock it (unless there is a way I don't now about).
The story is that for over a year now, I have been using my SD as internal. This morning I thought I'd reboot my phone (after several days) because it was getting hot (and battery draining) and laggy. It got (many times) stuck on "optimizing app X of Y" on SD. So I turned it off (through reset button combination and bootloader), removed the SD and succesfully booted it. However, as I tried to insert the SD, as the only way to recover some files I needed, it got to 'optimizing apps' again, exactly the same, from where it never progresses. So I (a posteriori foolishly) thought I'd clean the cache to get rid of that. It never booted again, neither with SD, no SD, factory reset, etc.
I have tried factory resets via recovery (have removed sd and even SIM), I have done integrity checks in recovery (no problems, every time), yet I won't get past the htc logo.*
Now I tried to (adb sideload) the RUU provided by nuts77 (the asia 2.30.709.2) but it aborts every time at about 40% of loading, no other message. In the logs I find the (quite expected) "signature verification failed"
*When I try to boot it (after wipe etc.), after about 20 minutes of htc-logo, it just goes to bootloader.
Any ideas? I have quickly gone through recovery's kernel logs, but I don't have any good idea what I should be looking for, since the output is quite verbose, and I can't easily figure out what is relevant or not, (I have been an embedded dev, so I am not afraid to go technical if needed), because I haven't worked with an android device before
Any help would be deeply appreciated as I am stuck with a bricked phone on a foreign country
Thanks!
hi pls help me

Tamam... Bu bir Kök yöntemidir. Bir RUU'yu bu şekilde yakmazsınız. Kurtarma işleminden bir RUU'yu flash edemezsiniz.
Fastboot'tan (bilgisayar) flash'lamanız veya yeniden adlandırıp SD kartınızın kök dizinine yerleştirmeniz ve indirme modunda başlamanız gerekir.
Bunun nasıl yapılacağına dair eğitimleri araştırmanızı ve okumanızı öneririm.
