Hi!
Yesterday i managed my Flyer to S-off via revolutionary tool.
Today i wanted to update to Honeycomb with this tutorial:
+
Google search: android.modaco.com Installing Honeycomb on your Flyer
Guide from Paul.
i got now stuck after the htcdev bootloader unlock.
i should transfer the cwm recovery file via fastboot into the flyer
command: fastboot flash recovery revolutionary-cwm-4.0.1.4-flyer.newhboot.img
Code:
< waiting for device >
sending 'recovery' (4682 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.753s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 1.198s
Why this is failed? i tried to do the next step, getting into clockworkmod recovery but nothing happens.
My Flyer shows now:
Code:
*** RELOCKED ***
*** Security Warning ***
FLYER PUT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT-1.11.0006
MICROP-0950

Fastboot 9v AC (because charging)
VOL UP
VOL DOWN
POWER
Bootloader
reboot
reboot bootloader
power down
What can i do now? any idea?
edit: adb don't work, fastboot works.
I'm going crazy tried to reunlock bootloader via htcdev. When i flash the unlock token i get same error

Why in the world would you use the htcdev unlock? Go to flyer development and follow globatron's honeycomb guide. Much better than voiding your warranty.

i did yesterday exactly those steps from globatron for soff and cw recovery.
For getting Honeycomb i used another guide yesterday.. because i found this site today..
I really dont know what to do now
Worst case run ruu of your stock software

made it now with other version of fastboot... this is crazy..
so i unlocked again and now i can go on with the other steps?!
I would return to stock then use globatrons update method. Do you know your stock ruu
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e using xda premium
is going back to stock via ruu possible when i changed hboot, radio and boot file?
the guide from paul says:
Do NOT under any circumstances run the RUU in it’s entirety nor ‘fastboot flash rom.zip’ – this will make irreversible changes that you don’t want!
Be careful if you flash any RUUs or do anything that could revert you to S-ON on a broken system – this could leave you stuck
i think i will recharge and go through the last 4 points..
im afraid
Try to get a new unlock token.
I can not see why running your ruu to stock.would be an issue but I am not 100% certain. I did a revert last week and the only thing I needed to do prior was relock hboot first which you are already locked.
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e using xda premium
first i wanna say thanks for your help!
i did today the last two steps after recharging the battery.
last 2 steps are putting the new image onto sdcard via adb and second step was factory reset und dalvik wipe. All two steps worked fine for me, but after restart the flyer is going to a bootloop.
what should i do now?
Should i get back with the RUU?
Can i setup honeycomb after getting back with ruu with the tutorial from globatron?
best regards
tom
did you flash the zip through recovery
Sent from my HTC Flyer P510e using xda premium
^the tutorial say get into clockwork recovery mode and type into command "adb shell mount /sdcard && adb push stock-hc-flyer-system.zip /sdcard/"
this command finished after 3 minutes and i was also lookin at the sd card the file is on the sd card.. after this i wiped dalvik and made a factory reset in the clockwork recovery mode. Afterwards Reboot -> then bootloop
lool is it possible that i have to " install zip from sdcard" ? if yes i'm the dumbest flyer user on the world *g*
edit: i tried now to install the update via recovery, it says E: Can't open /sdcard/stock-hc-flyer-system.zip (bad)

I don't know if it's possible to really stop it from booting or displaying anything on the screen. Recharge and once it's done hold power button for a long time.

help fully bricked htc flyer p510e
here is what i did step by step:
bought an htc flyer, then upgraded it officially to honeycomb
i did not like honeycomb so i unlocked bootloader with htc dev method
then flashed recovery and rooted....
changed the misc_version and downgrade back to gingerbread with fastboot flash zip rom.zip
it worked........gta 3 and gta vice city worked.......few months later the gta 3 and vice city started crashing( just like honeycomb)
so i got s-off with revolutionary.....and flashed honeycomb PG41IMG.zip
that worked...........few months later i wanted gta back so i could not take i tried flash back down but did not work...it would get stuck in RUU mode ...so i flashed PG41IMG.zip back and that worked ..i was not bricked...so i tried another method
i flashed fastboot express downgrader.nb0 and
flyer downgrader.nb0
then changed gingerbread rom.zip to PG41IMG.zip and placed it on sd card
went into bootloader and let it flash
the bootloader at this moment:
***security warning***
pvt chip s-on
hboot 1.10.000
..................
it does not show whether the bootloader is locked or unlocked......no recovery.......tablet does not boot.....only to bootloader and fastboot.....
i tried to flash the unlock token for bootloader but get
signature failed error....
i tried to flash the honeycomb PG41IMG.zip but get
checking header failed
remote[signature failed]
cant flash anything because of that ...cant flash recover to even turn off the verification signature check.....
plz help ...whether you help me to fix it back to gb or hc to dont care ..just want it to work
plz help me fast
battery charges but phone goes into fastboot .....
plz help
just ask if u need more information on the situation..
plz anyone
Should probably find a good RUU that is compatible, create a gold card and do a clean re-load of compatible ROM.
The issue
If you flash new 3.15.651.16 JellyBean RUU and it only updates hboot to 2.09, phone might end-up in semi-bricked state.
RUU refuses to flash any other partition (even if bootloader is in locked/relocked state) so its impossible to return phone to stock rom.
Error message from fastboot flash zip is;
Code:
fastboot flash zip RUU.zip
sending 'zip' (659905 KB)... OKAY
writing 'zip'... INFOadopting the signature contained in this image...
INFOsignature checking...
INFOrom parsing start ...
INFOrom parsing finish ...
INFOzip header checking...
INFOzip info parsing...
FAILED (remote: 22 loading zip info fail)
What is causing this
Hboot fails to read ruu-info from new encrypted zip after hboot-preupdate and stops flashing process.
Solution
Solution is to flash firmware.zip from JellyBean OTA. Firmware.zip is "old style" zip file, hboot can open this zip and update radio and sbls.
Fix
- Download JB OTA firmware from http://unlimited.io/jewel.htm
- Download fastboot executable (google)
- Put all files in one directory
- Reboot phone into fastboot mode
- Make sure that bootloader is Locked or Relocked. If bootloader is Unlocked, relock it with command fastboot oem lock
- Enter commands
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash zip jewel_jb_ota_firmware.zip
NOTE:
If you see FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately) text after running fastboot flash zip command you have to run fastboot flash zip command again.
After this flash stock RUU again.
Permanent fix
- S-OFF your phone. With S-OFF phone you can always flash decrypted, unsigned and/or older RUU and get phone working again easily. :good:
Please report any success / failures into this thread. Also tell little bit information about your device, like;
- What hboot you had
- Was radio flashed through recovery
- Was hboot downgraded
- CID

I ran this... Worked to a T. Debating whether or not to s-off...
But, this did in fact update my radios..
Phenomenal. Just to be clear with what I did...
Ran Fuses instructions. Then I did the RUU GUI update in Windows... back to stock, Tampered in bootloader removed. Testing the stock radios and what not, but so far it's perfect.
*** Phone has to be RELOCKED****
I am not sure if I am successful or not right now. Phone is showing HTC black screen with green bar below it. The green bar is not ALL the way across, looks like 95% after running the commands. Not sure what to do so I issued "fastboot reboot"
Phone looks to be in bootloop so I got back into HBOOT.
First I relocked the phone. Rebooted. Then Rebooted into fastboot.
Then ran commands, screen shots are attached.
Seeing this message after running commands:
FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately)
Changes noticed in Bootloader:
My RADIO updated from 1.02.12.0427 to 1.12.11.1119
OpenDSP updated from OpenDSP-v25.1.0.32.0405 to OpenDSPv31.1.0.45.0815
Update:
Put the phone into fastboot and then ran the windows Jellybean RUU. Looked like the RUU got about 98% thru and then gave me a USB error. Then the phone rebooted and it looks like everything updated. Phone is booting into JellyBean. Should I retry installing the RUU?

Rerun the ruu. Just hit the up arrow and then enter

Fastest way to get support for DirtyRacun is to join #unlimited channel on freenode.
Lets keep this thread clean, semi-brick on 3.15.651.16 stock RUU stuff only.
Well guys, time to add some info. If you lock and re-flash the RUU file and you get "SBL VERIFY FAILED" errors (but the RUU still completes) and you can't htcdev unlock (signature failed), you should use this fix. Helped me get my friend's phone S-off using Dirty Racun.

if we're running stock JB (newer hboot), then we can downgrade it to stock ICS (older hboot) via RUU

Yes it is true, but always download full stock RUU and use that. There is some problems with repacked firmwares.
After I typed rebootRUU my screen changed to an HTC screen and stayed there for like 30 min, I tried to flash the zip but my phone wasn't recognized. But ever since that exact moment my computer has f***** up. Does anyone know why this happened

Probably windows dropped fastboot-drivers. Try installing drivers again or use Linux, ubuntu live-cd works just fine.
Hello,
I have tried to flash a custom ROM to my htc desire x but unfortunetly I am a almost complete noob. I have been using Desire_X_All-In-One_Kit_v2.0 in order to complete the action. The problem is that i have never rooted the fone nor i have put in the recovery into it. So basically i unlocked the bootloader and thought it would all work.Well you know yourselfs it didn't.I have been looking all over the place for a way to get my phone fixed and i found one(ima Junior member can't post links yet ( Re-flash stock ROM (RUU) after bricking a rooted device)) .I have done all the steps but in step5 i get an error

It will be easy to fix it.

I purchased a EVO 4G LTE for my sister a little while back and recently she had her boyfriend attempt to root it for her, and since I'm here it obviously didn't go over all too well. All he said he did was follow a video (which he gave me) on how to root for the newer software version. "Something happened and it didn't work so I watched another video and tried that" The phone is currently unlocked with S-ON and he flashed a working version of TWRP and cm10 couldn't figure it out and here we are. help please. Rooted using Linux. i did some reading and found out i had to flash the boot.img through fastboot. it just hangs at <waiting for device> in the terminal. Apologies if this has been answered, if so please point me in the right direction.

I'm guessing it's on the latest firmware (3.16)? That update breaks the touch panel on all non-3.16 roms (which would include cm)...the only way to downgrade is to flash the tp.img from the previous firmware (3.15), which requires s-off. I would recommend going that route as it makes things a lot easier. For example, once you're s-off you won't have to fastboot flash kernels anymore. Check out the dirty racun thread in Original Development for more info. If you decide to s-off, you can flash the old tp.img zip from the 3.15 firmware to get the touch panel working for cm:
http://themikmik.com/showthread.php...dio-Collection&p=220556&viewfull=1#post220556
Otherwise, if you don't want to go s-off then you'll need to flash a sense Rom that's using the 3.16 base (which I think most if not all are now). I recommend Viper4g, runs great and has tons of tweaks like cm.

Boot into bootloader and check the radio. If its 1.12.11.1210 then he took the 3.16 OTA and your only choices are what premo15 said.

I don't know if you can just install TWRP again or if you'll have to go through the HTCdev unlock again. You'll need the Unlock_code.bin for the Dirtyracun process anyway so you might as well get it again.

You can try this

But that requires root. You don't have a 2gb card laying around anywhere?
My phone was acting buggy with the radios and had HUGE performance issues. To be frank, i think a SNAIL was faster than this phone at the time... I am S-OFF, unlocked and i cannot flash recovery.
I get this output and error:
Code:
sending 'recovery' (8516 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.087s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image error! (BootMagic check fail))
finished. total time: 1.129s
here is the current HBOOT Config and display:
Code:
FIREBALL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
CID-VZW__001
HBOOT-1.15.0000
OpenDSP-29.1.0.45.622
eMMC-boot
Just for good measure i re-wrote the CID to 11111111 and locked and unlocked the bootloader again to no avail, thinking it was possibly that being unlocked during an RUU. The thing is, while unlocked, the RUU still processed... Oh and the phone boots up fully. i have ZERO issues with actually using the phone, but i cant believe i am stuck on a stock rom and not allowed to flash a custom recovery... >_>
Other thing... just to see if this would help, i used junkmail9's ENG HBOOT with the RegawMOD Customizer to flash the ENG hboot to try my luck. STILL no good. i can flash hboot directly, and whatever else, but is recovery just stuck??
i really want to be free again, so can someone please explain to me why after an RUU even WHILE S-OFF and unlocked, that i cannot flash recovery?

You did not mention either the recovery image you tried to flash, nor the command you used to try and flash it. There's no point in messing with bootloader lock/unlock if you're s-off. Just leave it alone.
my apologies... well basically, i cannot flash any custom recovery for this phone. CWM 6.0.3.1 which i had before the restore, and i just tried the philZ Touch 5 recovery which is basically the same thing as CWM... for some reason, the recovery partition became locked after the restore despite being s-off. i remember this error before while s-on and locked when I used to have the Wildfire S.

alright, i am a dodo-bird... apparently, i really need glasses because i JUST noticed that i was flashing a zip file.... dang it... for whatever reason, it can flash zip files, but i guess i didnt have the right one. anyhow, no help needed now. Mods, you can close the thread... my apologies for the wasted space. If its any consolation, i havent really slept so.... yea. lol. thanks for the help thus far.
i wasnt flashing the IMG file like i should have been.
similiar issue
hello users of the almighty xda!
I have obtained s-off using dirtyracun and flashed between team venoms viper rom and cyanogenmod10.1 multiple times
this last time I tried to flash back to viper2.2.0 from cyanogenmod because of the problems with the m2 snapshot I wiped everything as usual including cache,data, and even a factory reset and installed the viper rom and said everything was good to go and now the phone wont boot past the htc screen
so I figured i'd reflash the viper boot.img to see if that would help and doesn't
not only will it not boot but when I go to the bootloader and try to enter recovery it flashes and I see the clockwork mod symbol and then it boot loops back to the htc logo endlessly
wtf! ugg! any ideas oh great xda users?
p.s im also under the impression that because im s-off I cant RUU back to stock is this the case?

This is not true. You may at any time run the RUU to restore borked programming. Besides, the dirtyracun method of flashing s-off is risky to say the least. I used facepalm s-off and it was stupid easy. Anyhow, run the RUU and then immediately run a factory reset. The RUU formats and repairs all partitions on the device and the factory reset restores the radio and baseband as described by mdmower.

Do the following to prepare for RUU-
Run these commands in order:
fastboot oem resetRUUflag (wait for reload)
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
Fastboot erase cache
Fastboot flash zip name_of_file.zip
Alternatively, you can run the automated HTC RUU utility, but it often fails vs. A manual reflash.

ignore please, came late and didnt notice
gonna try it
thanks for the response. I agree the dirtyracun method is pretty risky, but at the time I think it was the only s-off method I could find
well I will ruu then
thanks for the detailed fastboot commands and such
I don't have to relock the bootloader do I?
