I've been gone for a while and want to get everything up to date and run a new Rom based off the 3. 70 ota. I currently am rooted via toast method with hboot. 76 an outdated amon_ra recovery and baked snack 1. 8... should I flash new recovery first or the newer hboot? Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance
Edit* also any suggestions on which Rom and kernel combo I should use? I'm looking at fresh or myns rls 4
you can just go straight to just update the rom and radio, PRI etc...dont really see the point of updating your hboot and or your recovery. i still use the very first eng. boot and the recovery from toastch root method.
Hi All,
I have a dhd unbranded, radio s off and rooted but still running the stock rom but with a custom kernel for overclocking. It was just s off the other day and i asked a question about returning to factory settings and was advised to flash radio s off so if i want to return from factory rom to custom it can be done. I checked bootlander and the cid info which was htc_001 and the bootloader would flash up the recovery img etc but after i've done radio s off it showed cid11111111, so i flashed the android 2.2.1 ruu, unfortunately after having been running it overclocked at 1.4 i found it a little slow and not as smooth so i went into bootloader to reflash the backup of previous rom but says there is no imgs in p something .zip ( on on screen longer enough to see ) also the cid info is now missing. Had to flash the 1.32.405.6 ruu and then root and cwm and revert that way.
Is that normal after using radio s off for the boot recovery img to vanish or am i missing something.
Still new to android so please be gentle
Cheers Simon
not sure but you need to be ENG S-OFF to revert to previous backup not just radio s-off. again not sure cause i just moved from Desire to DHD.

Not sure how he rooted his phone [method], but he flashed the PC10.img.
The phone boots but still has CM7 with root enabled, while bootloader still says that it is S-Off. Also, recovery is still Clockwork Mod. When trying to flash OTA via Recovery it says there's an error from build.prop. Bootloader doesn't let PC10.img flash again.
Again, sorry if its a dumb situation, but this isn't my phone, and flashing the PC10.img could be 'dangerous'.
What are you trying to accomplish? Are you trying to unroot or get to stock 2.2 rooted?
If you're tryin to unroot and go back to stock with S-ON, follow the wiki:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Returning_to_Stock
Tried that, however even after changing the version # , bootloader says that main version is older. Probably because PC10.img has already been flashed, and it didn't change the system files.
Hey XDA-Dudes,
I just got my Desire HDand I wanted to put a custom ROM on it because the stock ROM is pretty crappy.
Now I saw in the recovery that this Phone is alread S-Off and the lazy noob I am I don't want to downgrad and root my phone just to install clockwork recovery (I'm on 2.2.1 Build 1,75,xxxxxx).
So can I use my stock recovery to flash a third party ROM?
And how do I do it?
Edit: I want to flash to CM7 if it's important.
gingerbreak is able to perm root your build. (install it from your sd card, and then run it)
it may error out and say something went wrong, its ok, reboot the device, and you're now probably rooted.
download rom manager from market and if the perm. root succeeded then use it to flash cwm recovery.
Did it but after the reboot I get stuck on this screen...

Edit: Pretty sure I'm S-Off:

you have radio S-Off, not ENG S-Off.
where it says "SHIP" it should say "ENG" instead.
Only then will you be able to flash cwm recovery.
Right now all you can do is flash different stock roms using the RUU via the pc, or PD98IMG off the sd.
Okay thanks,
I'll guess I'll go 1.32 and root afterwards to install crm.
God damn it, I think I messed up here. I got a replacement G2 since mine has gone bananas! So I got Rooted with S-Off but I think I flashed the DesireZ PC10IMG.zip since I wanted to install doubleshot roms and so on. However after I flashed it my phone gets stuck at the HTC screen now?
When I try to boot into Recovery it's still under Recovery v3.0.2.4 so I can't even restore my phone to a previous back up since these back ups were created with the latest Recovery version.
I went ahead and downloaded the stock G2 Rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788489
However, when I renamed it to PC10IMG and put it on the the root of the SD-Card Bootloader will not flash the .zip and I get some sort parsing message and I get right back to the Bootloader screen.
I also can't follow the guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=999796 - to restore the stock H-Boot since I can't even boot the damn thing!
HELP!
Flash a new rom in recovery, or if you have eng hboot, flash latest recovery, restore nandroid.

What does it say when you go into the bootloader? There should be a hboot version towards the top of the screen?
Also, have you tried flashing a rom using recovery? It sounds like it is working- just get a normal rom, nothing that is named PC10IMG.zip. Maybe try one of the CM stable releases.
