[Q] Im at my wits end.. Please help. - HTC Droid DNA

So last week a friend asked me to s-off his phone for him.. The phone ended up bricking (recovery gone, no os, etc...)..
Where I am at:
1. The phone is S-ON (Actually says "Monarudo PVT Ship S-ON"
2. The phone has an unlocked boot loader
3. The phone has TWRP 2.4 installed
4. HBoot 1.33
5. Radio 1.01.01.0110
6. OpenDSP v6.120.274.0114
7. eMMC-boot
8. The phone has a 4.1.1 based rom installed (Tried carbon 4.3 based, same issue and CM 4.2 based, same issue)
I have tried moonshine and face's s-off with no luck. I get about half way through with moonshine and it just sits there counting, adding periods.
I have tried :
1. Flashing a stock hboot 1.15
2. Flashing the stock splash
3. Flashing the stock RUU
Issues :
1. The phone gets NO reception Just the X with empty bars. I don't know if its the radio or something. Every once and a while I get 2 bars for a second but it goes away.
PLEASE HELP! I feel horrible that my buddy has to borrow my bionic until this is fixed.

when I tried the stock RUU from HTC it gets to a point and fails telling me incorrect image or seomthing like that.. Should have written it down, I can run it again if the error helps.

Every one learn everyday.
Download 1.15 stock hboot. Rename to PL83IMG.zip. when u renamed it make sure is not zip.zip cause this file is already zip so u try only to rename it to PL83IMG (right click the file in your pc and check properties to make sure windows got it already as a zip extension) and place in the folder that contains ( in ur pc) your android-adb folder*
there is where any zip should go, with the exception of user preferences location. (or different folder named by the user)
Step 1) adb reboot bootloader
Step 2) fastboot oem rebootRUU
Step 3) Command to directory containing your renamed hboot zip (i.e. C:\android-adb\)
Step 4) fastboot flash zip PL83IMG.zip
*** When it says it is done in the terminal/cmdprompt execute step 5 )
[The green bar only fills up about 75% of the way]
Step 5) fastboot reboot-bootloader
Profit. Put the RUU Folder in same directory. right click and run it as administrator

W00t! S-Off is done.. HBoot time....

yes u need Hboot, but you did before unlock, s-off with moonshine method or revone?
you can try RUU now but If you get an Image 158 error during RUU, try flashing the stock hboot again.

All sorted out.. Thanks everyone. I s offed, unlocked, and flashed new radio. All is well

[Q] HELP! Can't get to bootloader (S-on)

Hello!
I installed Munjeni's special hboot partition (to increase usable space) and wanted to update the phone back to stock (to take back to att).
The RUU utility failed with code of 152.
The partition failed.
Now the phone is "stuck" at the black HTC screen with four warning triangles in each corner.
Any ideas?
I can fastboot and issue some commands...
I am s-on, hboot 1.02.
Thanks in advance!

If the bootloader is accessible, you can try grabbing the rom.zip out of the RUU (run it & let it load, then search in Windows' temporary folder for "rom.zip". If not there's probably a download somewhere), and rename it to "LIBEIMG.zip" on the root of the SD card.
Then boot into the bootloader (vol down) and it should pick it up and start flashing (might be a confirmation before it does)
Edit: Well I looked at the title again... does this mean its not accessible?
It should be if fastboot is, but I've never had the bad triangles so not completely sure..
If not, alternate option that may work: extract the hboot image from rom.zip and flash it with fastboot (if its allowed)

Thank you for the link. I'm downloading it now.
I can fastboot, but I'm S-on (from one of my flashes).
What's the fastboot command for flashing the hboot? Will this even let me?
I'll give this a try. Thanks again!

More info:
ERROR [152]: IMAGE ERROR
One of these error messages will appear when you use the incorrect RUU to update and the image file size is larger than the Flash ROM size. In this case, download the correct RUU version and try again.
I have also tried RUU_Puccini_LTE_Rogers_WWE_1.26.631.4_Radio_1.05.550I.09v2_30.68.550I.12_release_219377_signed and received the same error
Well I know you cannot flash a boot.img through fastboot unless your bootloader is unlocked or you are S-OFF, so that explains why that fails.
As for the RUU failing to run, try running it while in fastboot. Also, try re-downloading either of these Roger's RUUs:

[Q] Re-unlock issues

I am having issues with re-unlocking my dna. I tried using the RUU to flash it back to stock but I had some problems with the RUU (error 170). I tried rerunning rumrunner (which work fine the first time) and at the end it had an error and still read a relocked with s-off in fastboot. I need to know how to complete the RUU and start from scratch, or how to re-unlock it from where I am. Thanks for the help.
RUU is failing because of hboot.
But, you're s-off. So change your CID and unlock at HTC DEV

Boot into bootloader
fastboot oem writecid 22222222
Fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot getvar cid (should be 2s)
If so, go to htcdev and unlock
Okay so the dev unlock worked but, when it rebooted it got stuck onthe boot image and never fully booted. I left it on for a whole night. now when I try to flash/erase anything twrp is unable to mount anything. I tried wiping it with fastboot -w but is doesn't allow it. Is there any way to remount everything?
Run the RUU. You won't lose s-off. Then flash recovery, then rom.

Note: this RUU.exe worked like butter when the Bootloader is locked. no tested with unlocked bootloader.
It worked
Thanks for all the help,
I my phone is now working. I used the firmware links that finanandroid linked to and flash them. I then tried flashing the rom.zip through RUU but is was blocked (failed remote 24 parsing ). I then reflashed recovery (CWM) and tried wiping the cache to check and see if everything was mounting. It was. So I adb sideloaded cm 10.2 and everything is working great!

[Q] RUU Back To Stock Fail

Hi All,
Sometime ago I was able to install android 4.3 using the moonshine method. After sometime, I decided to go back to stock. I followed a tutorial on how to get back to stock RUU.
-Entered Boot loader, typed in cmd prompt "fastboot oem lock" received the word that lock was successful.
-Proceeded to run the RUU executable file 1.15 but received the "158 error"
Now my phone has been wiped of any OS since I relocked the phone, but it still says "moonshine s-off".
I tried to use TWRP recovery adb sideload the proper hboot file to match the RUU but get this message
Failed

Can anyone walk me through the steps of pushing the hboot zip via adb sideload?
Will adb sideload not work if my fastboot is locked?

There use to be a command you could enter to lock it. I would message phaded and ask him for the command sense the zip isn't working.

I am not a dev but it looks like your bootloader is locked. your cid should be all 11111 or all 222222
I goofed up, You will need to go to the bottom of my COLLECTION thread and follow the instructions posted at the bottom under the RUU LINKS section
not the .exe files

[Q] Help! Stuck in HBOOT, can't run recovery

I've got a friend's HTC One M8 that's stuck in HBOOT. I can't flash a new recovery, I've tried both TWRP and CWM. Either time I get an error message "FAILED (remote: image update error)"
I'm at the end of my thread here with things I can try to fix it. I've searched almost all topics to no avail.
Here's the getvar dump:
C:\Users\Adrian>fastboot getvar all

Device says *** UNLOCKED *** on screen, doesn't say TAMPERED (not sure what this is).
Anything fastboot commands usually result in a failed message but the device is recognized if I type "fastboot devices".
Here's a sample when trying to use Squabbi's toolkit:
target reported max download size of 1830727680 bytes
sending 'recovery' (24576 KB)...
OKAY [ 1.607s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: image update error)
finished. total time: 1.678s
I've tried using an ATT RUU, various recovery files, etc. The phone boots straight into HBOOT. Any other commands apart from fastboot on the device result in a quick flash of another screen and returns to the fastboot USB screen.
What can I do to get this device back up and running? For some reason I just can't get the recovery file to flash so I can move forward already. Am I missing something? I just got the device from a friend. He mentioned he was watching YT when all of a sudden the device went into this boot loop.
Thanks in advance!

Hello
I'm no expert but it sounds like a radio issue
Have you tried a new RUU
Also what is your (bootloader) version-main:
Thanks

Admittedly, I've got an iOS device myself so I'm going to have to defer to your expertise. I believe I've tried a new RUU (an ATT .exe file? It was a full blown installer, told me what version i was on, what version it would be updating to.. does this sound right?).
How can I get you the bootloader version?

Unfortunately, it seems with any of these RUU installers I get a USB connection error. I have to think it has something to do with me being unable to enable the USB Debugging mode of the phone.
Any other ideas?

Can you get into fastboot mode ?
IF you can get into fastboot mode we are fine .. we don't need adb
Think of fastboot as the bios and adb as the software
IF your usb is jacked you need to try another computer
EDIT: If fastboot works go to This Thread
The first download link is the firmware that you need
1. Download the firmware
2. Put your phone in fastboot mode
3. fastboot erase cache
4. fastboot oem rebootRUU
5. fastboot flash zip thefirmwareyoudownload.zip < -- if it fails you might have to do this 2x
6. fastboot reboot-bootloader
7. Tell us what you see after words

Download it
.. once you download it you will see it says firmware.zip
Then you put it on your desktop or your Downloads folder
Then
1. fastboot erase cache
2. fastboot oem rebootRUU
3. fastboot flash zip firmware.zip < -- if it fails you might have to do this 2x (remember you flash it to where its at .. so if its in windows on your desktop it would be fastboot flash zip ~/Desktop/firmware.zip or in Downloads it would be fastboot flash zip ~/Downloads/firmware.zip
4. fastboot reboot-bootloader
5. Tell us what you see after words

Can you rename the firmware.zip to 0p6bimg.zip
Once you do that put the file onto the root of your sdcard (meaning not in a folder)
Credits for the Below Method (an0ther Post# 1)
2. Simply move the "0p6bimg.zip" to the ROOT of your EXT micro sd card.
3. Boot to your boot loader. There are many ways to get to your boot loader. A lot of custom roms have it built into the restart menu. If you have usb debugging enabled its just "adb reboot bootloader" If you can't get there with one of these methods, simply make sure phone is on, hold vol up and power for 11 seconds until screen shuts off, let go and hold vol down and power until boot loader comes up. "about 4 seconds"
4. Click HBOOT in your boot loader. Your phone will automatically scan the file and ask if you want to update. Hit vol up for yes or vol down for no.
5. Phone will begin RUU restore. You can watch what it does on the screen as it will go through a list and bypasses are normal. It will reboot boot loader and you can watch progress bars in the top right corner. It goes through a TON of them so do NOT turn off phone for any reason and let it finish. The process takes about 15 minutes give or take. Once it is done, it will say complete, press power to reboot. Again do not power off phone or even touch it for that matter during this process.

Yep, I renamed it to the 0P6BIMG.zip and when it began to load the file it agave me that error. I'll try that thread now.

Still getting the "Wrong Zipped Image!" error. I did this previously with a different firmware and it got through some of the process but bombed out after something and put me back in HBOOT. Couldn't launch recovery, couldn't launch anything. Fastboot USB shows up fine.

You Possibly have a bricked device
You can try chatting on freenode via irc
irc.freenode.net #sunshine-support or #htc-dev or #venomroms .. all these channels have htc devices m7 or m8
Thanks

I was coming to that conclusion quickly.
Thanks for your help though. I appreciate it.

Since you are s-in and bootloader unlocked, you need to relock the bootloader to run an RUU. This shouldn't give you a USB connection error, but its at least worth a try to relock.
Also, try to connect the phone to PC, go into Window Device Manager, and see if you can format the internal memory to FAT32. Some folks have had issues with internal memory corrupted, and cannot install recovery; and this fix worked for them.

I doubt it. So far, I've only seen on these forums one M8 where the screen still comes on, and extensive help from several folks couldn't get it back up and running. Being able to get into hboot means we can recover, 99.99% of the time.
Still a lot of things left to try.
