Does anyone know how to update the Droid DNA while on GSM? I don't have a verizon sim and chose not to root. Anyway of a manual update to the latest OS? Thanks.
Download the latest HTC Sync program. Hook up pho e to computer. Once PC recognizes the phone, the app will prompt if there is an update available. Update it. Does not need Verizon network. It will install via ruu mode automagically

Nah, no Windows 8.1 fastboot drivers

It downloaded fine and booted into the fastboot to update but because I'm using Windows 8.1 which has no drivers for the DNA fastboot as far as I know and tried.

Hello,
I am new to android.
I was wondering about the order of action regarding root CWN and unlock.
I know Root is first, but the other two?
I'm pretty sure that the unlock process installs CWM on the phone as well...so you'll only need to do that

First be rooted already.
Second be unlocked already.
Third download and copy Zip to Sdcard.
Finally boot into recovery and flash the zip.
Do Not Wipe Any Partitions During Install!

UPDATE: TOOL HAS BECAME THE ANDROID TOOL KIT
HTC NOOB PROOF FLASH TOOL
For Windows ONLY
Want to flash roms , .zips or kernels but too lazy to do it all yourself? Well now with the HTC Flash Help Tool (HTCFHT) you don't have to! HTCFHT automates all of the commands for flashing .zips and kernels. All you have to do is have your HTC phone on and unlocked with ADB debugging on.Soon it'll even unlock your bootloader! This only works on windows (tested on 7 and 8).This program is bug free! This even works on any HTC device that is unlocked or has s-off!
How to:
Before starting make sure that
-ADB debugging is on
-Phone is unlocked
Download v1
Planned:
Browser to .zip or boot.img
auto rename
Do you need help or have you found a bug?
Let me know!
Thanks to elkay for his awesome kernel!

Just did alot of work on this ... maybe a actually 1.0 release today...
What does this do exactly? If it installs the kernel without having to flash it from recovery, might be useful. Save 30 seconds or so of install time.

Keep it up-to-date with latest popular kernels/roms and I wouldn't mind downloading it.
I have no problem doing the commands manually, but if it can auto download and install kernels for me I'd love it just because I'm lazy
Re: FLASH HELP TOOL |fully automated| N00b Proof!|
Auto downloads? Hm I like that idea...(;

Tried using it to flash a kernel and it fails. When it asks to type ready or not yet, I type in "ready" and it says that "then" is not a recognized command. Must be a typo or error in the command scripting.
EDIT: Actually even the Read me option doesn't work. It just closes the command prompt. What OS did you test this on? XP? I'm using Windows 7 and there are likely some command syntax differences that make it incompatible.

So I am stupid, and after rooting my phone, I forgot to back up my stock rom before flashing a custom rom. Is there anything I can do but be depressed?
You dont need to be depressed, if the flash was successful then what are you worried about?

Get one of the RUU's for the phone. Either 1.26.502.12 or 1.26.502.15. There isn't any for 1.26.502.10 (original shipped AT&T rom).

I actually just did a clean install of Windows on my computer, and re-downloaded the RUU (1.26.502.15) and ran it, and it said "Installscript Setup Launcher has stopped working. Windows can check online for a solution to the problem." (Which we all know is bull, Windows sucks at that,..) So, is this stopping working because I don't have my phone locked and on fastboot RIGHT NOW? Because I don't want to lock it just to have it say the same thing.
It will fail of you don't have a locked bootloader that's for sure and will also not work of you're not in fastboot mode afaik but I don't know if you should be getting that.

can I use flashify, or any other app, to install a new radio? i have a file called dlx_baseband_1.01.01.1112.zip.
is this flashable using recovery? is there a version that is flashable in recovery or flashify?
are there recovery/flashify versions of the newest hboot?
i'm having trouble doing it the "regular" way

Fastboot straight up doesn't work on many Windows 8 computers. It's a Windows driver problem, but it still affects a lot of us in the custom dev community.
To answer the OP's question...the Flashify software DOES support flashing radios, but not for the DNA, unfortunately.
I posted a recovery flashable radio in my stock Rom thread.
It's also linked to in my sense 6 Rom threads OP.

I recently rooted my HTC Droid DNA and without thinking flashed a kernel while using the stock Android KitKat. I can no longer turn on my phone. When I try it just gets stuck at the HTC screen. Since the DNA doesn't have an SD card I can't plug that straight into my computer to put a rom on it and then flash it through the recovery. I am using TWRP and have tried to use ADB sideload but my computer keeps saying device not found. I am using windows 8 by the way. I just want to either flash the stock kernel or flash a custom rom so that I can actually use my phone again.
Edit: I can also use windows 7 if needed.
