OK so I'm trying to downgrade my phone from Honeycomb to gingerbread. Thus far I've unlocked the bootloader, installed super user, well anyway I'm at the point of installing the RUU. According to globaltrons guide, my flyer which is a 16 gig wifi US only model, should use one of the brightstar firmwares. Well I tried both and I get an UNKNOWN ERROR 1555 telling me I have the wrong RUU. Now my flyer is sitting here draining the battery and I can't get it to turn off. And can someone just tell me what RUU I need? I'm sure all 16 gig us flyers are the same anyway. Its the refirb from buy.com. Anyone else who bought one probably has the same RUU
Alright help just isn't coming fast enough so I finally got it to shut off. I just remembered the 3 button trick from my captivate and waddayaknow it worked on the flyer. Now I'm going to try again and see what RUU i'm supposed to run.
Alright now that I'm out of that mess I checked the CID again and its BS_US001, and according to the guide, I should use a brightstar RUU. Well there are 2 and I tried both and both told me I'm using the wrong one. So what the hell?
i would try following this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358758
If you need to get to fast boot you should be able to do that by holding power and volume down for around 20 seconds
Do you have the Fastboot drivers installed?
I should have fastboot drivers installed. I mean I've connected it fastboot and ran many adb commands...doesn't that mean fastboot drivers are installed? Also the RUU gets to "signature verification" and fails every time!! I actually went back through and changed the version number to the version number of the other brightside ruu and same issue! Globaltron's guide must be wrong.
Anyway my tab is running right now on stock honeycomb, just no progress is being made here and its frustrating the hell out of me! I've been stuck on the same damn step for 2 days now!
the link for the BASE RUU you need is http://hyuh.net/files/flyer/RUU_US_WIFI_B10.zip
This will get the device charging again, howver you will then have to flash a custom ROM,
Globatrons Guide will show you how to use the light version i have linked to.
Any questions just as as i have done the process lots of times
Give me the details of where you started from and what you did. I think you missed a couple steps
Alright cool, but does it turn off security? I still got S-on as I need that RUU installed so I can disable it.

Ok well boot the device into fastboot then put the file i have linked tointo the same folder as your fastboot normall C:/android/Android-skd-windows/Tools
Then run the following commands
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip <downloaded file name>
Flashing will fail with Error 90 first time due to hboot change (this is normal)
fastboot flash zip <downloaded file name>
The on screen indicator on the phone will not reach fully to the right end of the progress bar, this is ok
fastboot reboot

I first unlocked the tablet through HTC developers. Then I followed step by step and installed revolutionary, and then used revolutionary to install super user permissions. I then ran this command:
fastboot getvar cid
To get the CID. The CID came back as BS_US001. So I looked at Globaltrons guide and according to it, the ones that say "Brightstar" are the ones I need. 2 came up, but the numbers that were supposed to match, matched on both, so I just picked one. the download was capped so bad from that file sharing site that I just let it download overnight and went to bed.
So today I resumed my work. I next ran these commands
adb push misc_version /data/local/misc_version
adb shell
$ su
# chmod 777 /data/local/misc_version
# /data/local/misc_version -s (whatever the version number was)
and then I rebooted into fastboot, ran the first RUU and UNKNOWN ERROR
So I repeated the last steps with the other RUU and UNKNOWN ERROR...

Are you S-Off Yet ?
If yes try the file i suggested, its quick and easy and then allow you to flash custom roms
p.s. i will be able to stop up until you get this sorted. So we will try it now
I'm not because if I read correctly I have to be on gingerbread to turn it off. And thats where I'm at now. The tablet has stock Honeycomb 3.2 installed. I'm basically just trying to get from stock honeycomb, to honeycomb with S-off if that helps.
Were you on hc or gb, does your bootloader say soff, what is your end game here
I got my tablet on February 29th and did the ota update to honeycomb as soon as I had it. I've kept it stock till now. My end point is honeycomb with S-off basically. If I can get to honeycomb S-off without going back to gingerbread first than I'm all for it, but if I read correctly, you have to be on gingerbread with s-off to go to honeycomb with s-off.
After all that I figured I might install leedroid.

Ok i understand where you are now , firstly are you still getting the problem where your device isn't charging ?
And the RUU you have downloaded is definitely correct ?
Man do I miss my captivate. It was as simple as #1. Plug in computer. #2. Install super one click, and you could install any rom you wanted... but it didn't have a security lock, nor did it ever have a locked bootloader either.

Oh sorry, no I got my tablet to reboot. Its sitting on my desk idling in stock honeycomb right now. And it charges fine. I just can't get an RUU to run. There are 2 brightstars so I downloaded both, and neither work. Maybe there's a third one , but according the CID the brightstar one SHOULD work, it just doesn't. According the readme with the RUU the error I"m getting means incorrect RUU.
Ex captivate user here as well, yea this is a bit more
Did you relock bootloader prior to attempting ruu

Just tried downloading them to check the RUU and the link seems to be broken, did your deffinately download ok ?
Whats the filesize, GLobatrons guide has been spot on for hundreds of users
no its still unlocked. I just had a thought here. 2 ideas actually. #1. I don't have an sd card currently in, as I never bought one for my flyer. On the steps that required an sd card I just pulled the one from my phone. I dunno maybe the RUU wants to copy itsself to the SD-card but can't because its not there. Also #2. I did reinstall my apps last night so I could use my tablet today, which are all in the internal storage. If I wipe my tablet and put an SD-card in, might that fix the problem?
Gave my Evo 3d to my borother a few months back, but hes come back to me today saying it was stuck in bootloop.
He booted into the bootloader and did a factory reset, but it was still stuck in bootloop.
I tried to get into recovery to flash a new rom, but when i select recovery from the bootloader, that also goes into a bootloop.
Used adb to push the recovery onto the phone again but still just keeps bootlooping.
Not sure if its important but the phone is s-off. Any ideas on whats going on or how to fix?
Apologies, supposed to put this in Q&A forum
While you're at bootloader, connect USB and then flash a stock RUU.

You didn't say what version of the Evo 3D you have (CDMA or GSM) or what bootloader is installed, but if it's a Sprint CDMA model I would recommend flashing the Sprint ICS RUU.exe from Windows after putting the phone into fastboot mode in the bootloader. You may have to relock the bootloader with the "fastboot oem lock" command first if it shows "***UNLOCKED***" at the top of the screen.
That will fix a lot of problems, especially when the phone is in an indeterminate state. After flashing the RUU you can HTC unlock, flash a custom recovery and then root the stock ROM or flash a rooted ROM.

Sorry it is a UK GSM (Europe). I have revolutionary bootloader installed. Got an RUU to try now thanks.

^^^^ He got it first with the short version.
No, you won't lose S-OFF and won't need to relock the bootloader first if that's your current status.
And if it's a GSM model everything still applies, you just need a different RUU, which you already have.

Thanks ramjet. Thought this was going to be straightforward but cant get ruu to install. Error 170. Ill keep plugging away / googling away, hopefully come up with something

Error 170 means that the RUU utility can't find the phone. There's a readme.doc for running the RUU here, and the error codes are towards the end of that.
Are you putting it into "fastboot" mode in the bootloader, which should change to "fastboot usb" when it is connected to a computer? You also need to have the HTC USB drivers active, which can be accomplished by installing HTC Sync.

adb push into a bootlooping phone?
do you have the drivers for the phone? (if not download and install HTC Sync as they come with it)
did you try flashing a custom recovery img through fastboot? (go to bootloader select fastboot, connect USB, type "fastboot flash recovery nameOfYourRecoveryImg.img")
Yeah have tried installing custom recovery through fast boot again, and im in fastboot ok when trying to run the RUU. Also have HTC Sync installed from when i had the phone.. Drivers seemed to be ok as i was able to install the custom recovery with adb, alhough i still got bootloop after that.
Ive a few other things to try when i get home from work. Im sure it shouldnt be too difficult to resolve. Hopefully anyway.
Well this isnt going smoothly at all. Used another PC and was able to get the RUU to run.
However it now comes up with Error 131 Customer ID problem. The RUU was for HTC Europe (non branded). The phone was sim free. When i posted months back my cid was HTC_001. I checked it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22394863&postcount=172
However now when i get my CID it is showing as CID0202. Any way i can get an RUU to install? Any idea how a CID could change?
EDIT: noticed i used a different command last time.
fastboot getvar cid shows CID0202
adb shell getprop ro.cid now shows device not found (previously showed CID_001)
Thats typing both commands in same window, one after the other. One gets CID0202, the other device not found???
There's a change cid command in fastboot, fastboot oem writecid or something along those lines... however i believe the cid check is in the updater scripts of the ruu in which case a fastboot flash of all the img files should avoid it entirely... i don't remember the procedure for extracting the img files from the ruu but i believe ur supposed to run it and then dig through your temp files...

Thanks for this. Ill see if i can find anything else out about it. So saves running the RUU exe and no cid check done then?
Need to bump this as im not getting anywhere. No RUU's will install, error 31 customer error. Have flashed recovery via ADB and through PG86IMG.ZIP, but still cant get in to recovery as it just continually reboots.
S-OFF with revolutionary. Anybody any ideas please?
Got bigger problems than i thought. Finally got an RUU to install after 4 days of trying, by first using fastboot oem writecid 11111111. But when the phone rebooted it was back bootlooping again. Is there any hope for my phone?

You need to stop cross posting in the d3rp Q&A thread and your own thread if you want more help. Cross-posting is stongly discouraged on XDA and it's really confusing when you are asking for help in one thread while getting different advice in another.
It sounds to me like all the CID changes on your phone have left it in an indeterminate state and I'm not sure at this point what is the correct CID and RUU for your model. If you could detemine that, set the CID correctly and flash the right RUU the phone should work, but it might be too late if you have in fact been flashing firmware that doesn't match your phone because the right RUU may not back that out properly.
That's all I can offer at this point, but since I don't know the history of your phone and how it got the various CID's you have reported, you will probably be the one that needs to figure it out.

Any help is much apreciated
Are you doing this to warranty it? It will say "relocked" when you are done. It hasn't been a problem for anyone in the past though, you should still be able to return it to Verizon.
Instructions on how to return to stock are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38244272&postcount=10
You probably should use the latest official RUU (prior to the OTA they just rolled out a couple days ago) which is 3.14.605.12. The link I have is to an .exe file. You just connect your phone to your pc and then double click. It will take you through the steps.
Get it here:
http://androidfiles.org/ruu/?dir=Vigor
That will get you back to stock, unrooted and it will say "relocked".
There was a global leak that wasn't official. If you want to use that, get it here:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/
This is a zip file you put on your external sd card. Follow instructions in the first link I gave you.

Make sure to run this on a stock hboot or it will brick.
I am having a similar issue. I am rooted, I never relocked my bootloader, stock minus a few mods, but the ota update keeps failing. What do I need to do to be able to accept the update so it stops rebooting my phone?
I am currently S-on and I have not been able to successfully flash any new ROM at all. I have tried several times to do a super wipe, flash the new ROM and Gapps but I get stuck in a boot loop and I can't quite figure out the problem. Never had this problem flashing any ROM or even updating my RUU so I am puzzled as to where these issues are coming from. Any insight would be greatly appreciated. I am not complaining about me being there is a very stable rom but I would not mind upgrade to 4.2 or 4.3 and maybe a different ROM. Oh and I'm using TWRP 2.63 I believe is the newest.

lol in response to the attached photo I am still S-On because my phone would not take the dirty raccoon S off flas.
but lately my phone has been completely spazzing out on me it will do random lock ups and start swyping characters, in opening and closing menus without me pressing any buttons I almost feel like it is on its last leg. Not to mention random shut offs with black screens but still powered on if that makes sense. Normally when that happens it'll get stuck in a boot loop and I'll have to restore a previous backup... #itsucks

Do you have ADB & Fastboot set up on your computer? If not, look here. This is a small file and the setup is very easy. You may also want to install HTC Sync on your computer so your drivers are up to date. Once you've done this you need to go to the Facepalm thread that Bigdaddy provided a link to previously. In the first post, there are two files to download, the modified boot.img and signed firmware. Download both of these and place them in your ADB-Fastboot folder (if you downloaded and installed the one I linked above, it should be named android-tools). Once you've done this, connect your computer and phone via USB cable. Use your mouse curser and place it on the android-tools folder, then press Shift+right click on the mouse, then select the option to open a command window. Type the following command:
Code:
adb devices
The serial number of your phone should be output on the line below. If not, you might need to change the device type in the notification pull-down on your phone from sync manager to disk drive. Once you're able to successfully run the adb devices command, you are ready to start.
Type:
Code:
adb shell
press enter, then type:
Code:
su
and hit enter. Once you've done this, you can run the command to gain SuperCID on your device. The easiest thing to do is copy the command from the line below and paste it into the command terminal. The command is:
Code:
echo -ne "22222222" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p5 bs=1 seek=20
Hit enter. Once you've done this, you can begin at step 1, which will reboot your phone to the bootloader. To verify that you've got SuperCID, you should see a line underneath your Hboot version that says something like "CID-22222222". If so, you're ready to move on to step 2, making sure that you're connected via Fastboot USB mode. Just follow the commands in the Facepalm thread and you should be good to go. If after you're done your phone doesn't reboot, simply press the power button to start the phone. You can reboot to the bootloader once the phone powers on to confirm that you're S-off. Also, once you're done gaining S-off, I recommend deleting the two files you downloaded from your android-tools folder to prevent any issues in the future.
Hello Everyone,
I know this probably isn't the best place to post this question. I'm limited to not posting in the dev section.
I'm going to post my question and hope someone can help anyway.
I have an HTC One (M7) that seemed to have reception problems. I always thought I just needed to flash a new radio. So I went ahead and S-OFF'd my phone as well as Super CID. I then flashed a new radio & my reception problem seemed to go away. (or so i thought).
I then went ahead and turned my AT&T One into a Google Edition.
I have noticed that my reception problems never really went away. (When I am at home I have full bars. The conversation starts out fine, but about 10 seconds in, the person at the other end can no longer hear me.)
I now suspect this is a problem with the antenna & I have to get my phone back to stock so that I can hopefully switch out for a new one.
I'm just wondering which step I should do first. S-On again (I used REVONE to S-OFF) , CID back to AT&T, or switch back from the GE rom?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Dan

I have an HTC One (M7) that seemed to have reception problems. I always thought I just needed to flash a new radio. So I went ahead and S-OFF'd my phone as well as Super CID. I then flashed a new radio & my reception problem seemed to go away. (or so i thought).
I then went ahead and turned my AT&T One into a Google Edition.
I have noticed that my reception problems never really went away. (When I am at home I have full bars. The conversation starts out fine, but about 10 seconds in, the person at the other end can no longer hear me.)
I now suspect this is a problem with the antenna & I have to get my phone back to stock so that I can hopefully switch out for a new one.
I'm just wondering which step I should do first. S-On again (I used REVONE to S-OFF) , CID back to AT&T, or switch back from the GE rom?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Dan

If I were returning my phone to Stock, this is the process I would use
Change CID to Stock fastboot oem writecid CWS__001
Run the latest RUU for my phone
then use Revone to lock the bootloader and s-on
I think that's the correct order .. if anyone knows different please chime in

I guess I spoke too soon. After completion, I realized that TWRP was still installed, so I flashed the stock recovery. At this point everything seemed fine, but I noticed that the supersu icon was still there. I also noticed that wifi will no longer turn on. Clearly I've done something wrong.
The first time I had used a nandroid backup to restore to stock, then lock, s-on, remove tampered. That is when I realized TWRP was still installed and SuperSu was still there.
This is when I downloaded an RUU that matched my phone, but it errors saying something like "wrong boot version" (I'm not near my home pc to look)
I tried the process again & somehow SuperSu lost binaries. So I unlocked my bootloader again through HTCDev.com This gave me working SuperSu again. And this is where I am stuck.
I wonder if the GE rom changed something so that this process wont work?

when you run the RUU did you use the exe or Rom.zip /?
I use the rom.zip and flash in fastboot...

here is how you extract rom.zip:
Quote:
the .exe utilities can be finicky,so if you have trouble getting it to run, you can extract "rom.zip" in the following manner:
-start the utility
-check the "i understand" box to move on to the next screen
-hide the utility temporarily out of site
-search your C drive for "rom.zip". you will find it in a temporary location(it will be in a different spot each time you run the utility)
-open the folder location,and transfer rom.zip to a safe location on your PC.
-unhide and cancel the utility,youre done with it.
-rom.zip can be flashed using
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip rom.zip
fastboot flash zip rom.zip (yes do this 2 times)
fastboot reboot

here are some directions to flash "rom.zip"
if youre working with a booted,operational phone,you can flsh the file in the following manner:
-open a cmd window
-change to adb/fastboot directory
cd c:\foldername
(cd c:\mini-adb if youve used any of my guides )
-place the zip file you want to flash into adb/fastboot directory
-enable usb debug,disable fastboot,plug in phone
-check for connectivity
adb devices (should return serial number)
-boot to fastboot
adb reboot bootloader
-check for connectivity again
fastboot devices
-flash the file
fastboot erase cache
fastboto oem rebootRUU (will put you in ruu mode,black screen silver htc letters)
fastboot flash zip zipfilename.zip (will send and flash the file. dont interupt it while the cmd window shows its writinging,and the green status bar is moving on the phone screen)
*sometimes a file will fail with a pre-update error. this is normal,just enter again:
fastboot flash zip zipfilename.zip
and this time it will finish
-when you get "finished" and "OK"
fastboot reboot-bootloader (takes you back to fastboot)
-reboot back to the OS
fastbooot reboot
you can use this if you dont have an operational phone as well. you just need to manually put the phone in fastboot(select from hboot menu) then skip the "adb" commands and start with fastboot devices
to answer your other question,yes,you will need to re-unlock and re-install recovery after running the RUU. an ruu is designed as an "unroot" solution, or emergency fix,if other attempts have not made the phone operational.

Thank you for the help, but still no good. I end up with FAILED (remote: 43 main version check fail) after I try to flash the zip.

change your CID back to 11111111 and try again
Did you change you MID ?
What is the name of the RUU your using ?
My mid is PN0712000. I think that was always my mid. Don't recall changing it.
My cid is currently CW__001
I've tried: RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular_1.26.502.12.exe
also tried: RUU_M7_UL_JB_50_Cingular_US_1.26.502.15_Radio_4A.17.3250.20_10.40.1150.04_release_326691_signed_2.exe
I'm currently S-On (could that be an issue?)
I'm unlocked.

It worked once I set CID to 11111111 !!
So now I just have to change CID back, reverse S-Off again and change the unlocked and tampered flags?
Yep that should do it

It did! I'm completely back to stock. I decided to update to the latest RUU that AT&T has released. Just to avoid AT&T wanting me to update to see if it fixes the problem. I know for a fact that it wouldn't fix the problem anyway.
Oddly, my phone told me I was up to date while on the .12 RUU even though I knew the .15 RUU exists. I downloaded the RUU for .15 and it ran fine once I went back to stock after running the .12 rom.zip.
In summary, you saved me from a huge headache! Thanks so much for all the help & kindness.
