[Procedure]No HTC unlock HC-GB downgrade for official HC OTA

This procedure applies to both flyers and view
Required downloads
First download the Gingerbread RUU for your device from this thread.
If you don't have adb and fastboot on your PC
Get fastboot and adb tool for windows here
Get Fastboot and adb for linux here
I don't have a simple bundde for Mac, would welcome a link if anyone has one.
Download my universal misc_version and unzip to obtain the misc_version file.
Download tacoroot
Place both the misc_version and tacoroot.bin files in the same directory as adb
Procedure
Check the version number for your gingerbread RUU
In my example I am using this RUU: RUU_Flyer_HTC_WWE_2.00.405.3_R_Radio_20.3501.30.08 9BU_3809.05.04.10_M_release_194964_signed.exe
The version is the part highlighted in red.
Boot your flyer up to android if it's not already on, with usb debugging enabled and connect it to the PC.
Run the following adb commands
Code:
adb push tacoroot.bin /data/local/
adb push misc_version /data/local/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tacoroot.bin
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --setup
At this point your device will reboot to recovery
Simultaneously press Volume Up, Volume Down and Power
Reboot your device
Run the following command
Code:
adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --root
Your device will reboot, do not worry if it does not boot fully, it doesn't matter for this procedure, and it is a side effect of this root exploit.
Run the following command:
Code:
adb shell /data/local/misc_version -s [COLOR="Red"]2.00.405.3[/COLOR]
Note that the number in RED is the version number retrieved in step 1.
Reboot to fastboot:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Relock the bootloader:
Code:
fastboot oem lock
Go back to fastboot mode ( lock causes the device to reboot )
Run your RUU ( if on linux or mac, see other similar threads from me on how to RUU on those OSes )
Special Thanks
jcase for the tacoroot.
s*** too late!!!!
Yesterday I unlocked my Tab via HTC Unlock, hopefully I'll never need the warranty ...
But thanks for your detailed and very helpful instructions in this forum, don't know where I would be without you.

I think there is a mistake, it should be:

But: it doesn't work. The device hangs in the boot process after flashing the RUU.

The typo correction is correct but that it doesn't work is not. I've done this multiple times with both my own and other peoples devices and it works just fine. Make sure you used a gingerbread RUU and the it flashed completely. AND that you not doing this on an S-OFF device.

Thats the fault. My Flyer is S-OFF. Is there a possibility to get back to GB anyway?
Edit: Found a Solution. It cost me the whole day, but now it works.
The bad note: I don't know the Link with the solution. But it was in this Forum.
I got to it by Flashing a 3.2.1 ROM, and after that a 2.3.4 ROM via Goldcard-Method. (Via the SD-Card.)
During the process the Bootloader creates a message, that the installed hboot version isn't downgradeable or something like that. I hacked that into Google and it throws out a Thread in this Forum with the Solution.
Might be a little off topic, but the title:

What you say does not make sense to me. This thread specifically says this is for official HC upgrade which implies you have to be S-ON and locked.
If you are S-OFF you need to follow Globatron's other thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19607833&postcount=3

Hi
I followed the instruction and at this point:

I have a message: error opening input file.
I assume it is for the RUU.. where do I need to copy the RUU file to my SD or to the same folder where ADB is?
That is not the ruu. It is the misc file and all files should not be on your ad unless you are trying to flash the zip through hboot. They should be in your adv folder

Special Thanks
jcase for providing the tacoroot.
Nice release globatron! I was actually looking at Tacoroot for this last night but didn't really want to go into it too much and decided against using it. Glad to see I wasn't the only one with the idea for it though.
heh, Gave jcase the updated misc_version so he has it on the github radme for tacoroot already but didn't want to release the procedure until I has actually tested misc_version to run on at least a few HTC emmc devices and with multiple version string lengths.
Even if you didn't release this today, I probably would have started on it tonight, I'm a bored teenager with too much time. Still, keep up the good work. If you want me to make a script for you or anything, let me know and I'll get to work on it. (also, you know you can actually have adb from the recovery so you dont need to hit the buttons on it, just have it wait then adb reboot (or even adb shell reboot))
Of course I know that but that's not the what the buttons is about here.
What are the points of the button?
Sent by breaking the sound barrier
To ensure with absolute certainty that a log will be created.
Ah, you want the button presses to be logged to ensure it's done the job. Alright, fair enough.
Glad to TacoRoot in use!
Thanks for the spice jcase, just realized I had a typo in the procedure....jcase *provided*, not tested (well that too), tacoroot.

is the typo msc_version being misc_version
thanks Kevin, fixed that.
yep, didnt notice it until someone tried to do my procedure today lol... copy and paste my friend lol. Plus I just need to know one thing. This brings you down to GB but still keeps you locked right? You still technically have to use HTC unlock to bring it back to 1.13.000 correct?
Part1: correct, you've never unlocked if you do this.
Part2: No, you don't have to unlock at all during this procedure.
so to go from the 1.14 hboot to 1.13 u dont need to htc unlock?

That one is fine. Express is the board name or the view so an RUU with express (not expresskt) in the name is what you need.
Hello, thanks for the downgrade help. Upgraded to honeycomb and hated it so I followed your instructions and everything went exactly as described until the middle of the RUU upgrade itself where it stopped and gave me an
ERROR[140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
The ROM Update utility cannot update your android phone
Please get the correct ROM update utility and try again.
It won't successfully reboot now. When I go back to bootloader mode the recover screen shows

used RUU_Express_Sprint_WWE_1.22.651.1
Its completely stock, was notified of the new update by htc and installed it over wifi. Thanks in advance for any help
What appears to have happened here is that somewhere along the way something didn't work fully and you failed to set the version to the same as or lower than the RUU you used.
I would need to see the output of :
Code:
fastboot getvar version-main
to be absolutely certain of this. If that is the case then becasue you are completely stock the best course of action would be for you to return it for repair. Tell the technical support people that this happened when you tried to take the OTA update to HoneyComb. The alternative will require you to use the HTC unlock.

So you want to downgrade (HC to GB)

The hope of this thread is to centralize downgrade questions and also make the resources more accessible.
It is important to know your status.
-are you stock ota
-are you htc dev unlock hc
-are you s off hc
If you can not figure this out, god help you. To figure this out get into hboot the top will say
-s on
-unlocked
-s off
Don't know how to get into hboot? Wow! Novice. Hold power and volume down until flyer boots into white screen with androids on skateboards. Ta da!
Now that we know our status how do you downgrade? I take no credit for any of these methods.
Ota stock hboot

If you have a question ask here or downgrade thread, do not start your own thread. Read the other questions asked first, the hope is that after a little while most scenarios will be covered. If a question is repeated multiple times it will be ignored.
Why bother doing this? I have an odd compulsion to help. I remember when I got my first android device and I rooted it and deleted gtalk. My market stopped working. I went into newbie panic and others helped me even though my issue was pathetic. I remember what that felt like and how cool it was that someone helped me. So, I hope this helps
Need help
Hello,
After a few weeks trying I still have problems downgrading to GB.
My Flyer is Relocked and S-on.
HTC__001
Softwareno. 3.55.1114.31
S-on
HBoot 1.11.0011
Radio-3822.10.08.07_M
I have the following RUU: RUU_Flyer_HTC_WWE_Wifi_2.27.1114.31_Radio_20.3504.30.089BU_3809.07.04.06_M_release_204727_signed
I have used Globatrons guide.
The problem appears when I type the command:
adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.bin --root
I get the following message:
cannot create /data/local.prop: permission denied
And after this i cannot go on.
Can someone tell me what to do, I think I have tried everything now.
thx Driesman
*EDIT: globatron has already mentioned this, but just to confirm, it does not work if you have already unlocked your bootloader through htcdev.com. it does not work if you have obtained CWM recovery through htc unlock. it does not work if you have root through htc unlock. it will only work if you have unmodified stock HC. at least this was my experience.
Have you unlocked before?
I have unlocked and relocked the flyer.
Globatron has to guides; one with unlocked and one with locked flyer.
Is there another way to go back to GB?
I think you should unlock your hboot again. Flash a recovery and super user. Then follow the thread I linked in the op for htc dev unlock
Okay I will try.
Can you tell me step by step how to do: "I think you should unlock your hboot again. Flash a recovery and super user"
Maybe I am doing something wrong.
Follow this site to unlock bootloader
http://htcdev.com/bootloader/
Then get into fastboot mode, I assume you have adb and fastboot commands on your PC. Place this in same folder as command
https://www.box.com/shared/9bb9ba944ea6f301afe8
Open commands on PC then enter command
Fastboot flash recovery "name of file you downloaded"
Place this on your external SD
https://www.box.com/shared/b51a527355d7fba5dca3
Get into recovery and select install zip from Sd. Select this file
Flyer
Everything seems to work ok until I type the following command:
adb shell
$ su
# chmod 777 /data/local/misc_version
# /data/local/misc_version -s 2.27.1114.31
Then I get the error below:
D:\Adb>adb shell
$ su
# chmod 777 /data/local/misc_version
# /data/local/misc_version -s 2.27.1114.31$ $ su
$: permission denied
$ # chmod 777 /data/local/misc_version
$
See also uploaded screenshot
Am I doing something wrong?
What to do now?
You flashed super user in recovery
Flyer
Is that a question?
Yes.
Yes I did.
Can I copy, paste the command below or do I have to run each line seperately?
adb shell
$ su
# chmod 777 /data/local/misc_version
# /data/local/misc_version -s 2.27.1114.31
Each line seperate
Make sure when you enter in su to have your flyers screen on and to allow sufficient access when prompted
Flyer
Yes, I think it is working now??
See attachment
Now I will try to finish it....
The next step is to Reboot to fastboot.
Do I have to enter the command (adb reboot bootloader) into the dos screen or do I choose the option on the Flyer (REBOOT BOOTLOADER)?
However you want
Flyer
YES........It worked!
After all these hours trying.
How can I thank you?
There is a button for that. Glad to hear it worked. Enjoy
Where is the THANKS button?
Have searched for it before but cannot find it.
Depends if you are using app. Or Web page. no worries

[Q] Rooted but not unlocked?

I used ODIN to root my device... followed instructions from the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207
I'm rooted, that's for sure. However, I can't get a custom recovery to stick (using ODIN). Have tried both of the custom recovery versions, CWM/TWRP. The ODIN flash fails right as it starts.
When I boot my device...there isn't a picture of an open lock... So am I rooted but not unlocked?
Any help would be appreciated.
This is a consistent message I get trying to unlock my bootloader. Again, I am rooted, but cannot seem to flash a custom recovery.
Gosh...i can't even post an image yet....basically, my screenshot is at http:slashslashminus.com/lbyMxyQ6o5ZS06
The error in ODIN is NAND Write Start, then Fail!
I did a start for NANDWrite issues, and umm...is this bad?
I believe you need to be unlocked to have custom recovery
you can find out how to unlock bootloader here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2043636

Unique DNA issue (also trying to S-OFF)

Short story is, I got a DNA off of Craigslist for cheap that was stuck in fastboot mode and would not RUU. Its S-ON/Relocked/Tampered. After trying many things, I flashed a 2.06 update zip, and now it boots into a custom ROM that already has working root access. Looks like someone tried to put it back to a stock state but relocked it preamturely.
Now that I am back into a bootable state, neither Revone or Moonshine will work to get S-OFF so I can clean up the mess. Moonshine fails at 'launching temproot -> waiting 10 seconds -> Error; run distiller again' , and Revone auto-reboots after running ./revone.dna -P, and I've tried all the tricks in that thread here. I've factory reset/powered down and tried ad nauseum, with no luck.
My next line of thinking is, since it already has a working root, is it possible to have Moonshine bypass the temproot process? Or is it somehow possible to reflash a stock 2.06 system image? (I know there is no RUU yet.)
Since I did successfully flash the 2.06 update, which would restore the kernel and all that, Any suggestions on what to try next?
[EDIT] SOLVED!! I had to manually supercid and then unlock the bootloader via htcdev (most folks in a similar situation as I was would likely need temproot first.). After, I was able to S-OFF via facepalm.
Big thanks to Zanzibar in freenode #moonshiners for the tip!!

fastboot oem writecid xxxxxxxxx if you have issues with revone, try typing "su" before ./revone -p in shell so it runs as root (if you have root obviously)
Also omitting the "-p" switch might help.
