I hope some clever, kind soul can help me here. I just tried to backup my current rom using rom manager and now my phone can't mount my sd card or read my sim. I think it may have something to do with amonra recovery which I thought I'd failed to install but now appears when I go into recovery. Even when I mount a different sd card the phone can't read it. I think I'm well out of my depth here but am crossing everything hoping for assistance.
Okay I've read and read and read for the last 3 hours and I'm still totally clueless. The phone won't connect to pc either. Any help would be appreciated. Time for 3 hours sleep now
Classic USB Brick. Don't worry, try this: http://android.modaco.com/content/h...com/309939/usb-brick-rickrolled-b0rked-fixed/
Thanks but I'm confused. My hboot is 0.93 and when I follow the next link it seems to suggest I need to downgrade hboot. Is this right or am I being really stupid?
Or is it this I should be following:
2. Enable the SD Card functionality. Boot your phone in FASTBOOT mode (back + power), and enter this command: 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' . This will re-enable your SD card.
If so, I don't understand how to enter any command here. There is no option to enter anything. Once again any replies would be very welcome
You have to install Android SDK in order to issue those commands. http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
Okay thanks for your patience. I'll do that next. Don't leave me

That's windows for you. You do have a 32 bit system, right ? Try rebooting your PC. You have installed it in the default location c:\Program Files\blabla..
Yes it's a 32 bit system and I installed to default location. I've checked java update too and have the latest version. I rebooted but to no avail. I don't think my mum can help with this one....

Try uninstalling SDK and Java, reinstall Java and after that SDK.
will do. As an interesting sidenote my phone won't charge from mains only via usb connection and even that's sporadic
Still the same unfortunately. How frustrating!

Try running it as "administrator".
You can use the ZIP version , unzip it , then dowload the tools using the manager , or download only the tools package
little trick :
If you want to use the installer anyway , hit the "back" button when you get the java error , then next again . The error should vanish. worked for me

Oh wow I think something is happening
It seems to be downloading a whole bunch SDK platforms quite slowly. Does that sound right? Thanks again btw
well... no...
You just need the tools , not the whole developpement platform.
Just select the SDK tool in the package window
Ive tried to s-off my Wildfire like 3 times. The first one i failed cz i chose HBOOT 1.01.0001. The second one it was stucked on Acquiring Root <method 1> then i waited, then it said click anything to exit. after that my third times, it doesnt detect my handset.
Does it mean my WF already s-off or what?
Thanks a lot to who has answered my question
You can check the HBOOT version by pressing Vol - and power when turning it on.
i already know its 1.01.0002
But then when i tried to do it again, the alpharevx doesnt detect my phone. it only said : Android
Then it wanted i put the serial
nvm, it detects now. But it stucks when it says Thank you for participating
hye...
i am rlly new with this forum just rcently bcame a mmber... n of cz vry noob...
i hving this problem when i try to run the alpharev X it says waiting for device..
so?? what had i done wrong i already know that my HBOOT is 1.01.002..
btw sory my english..
Did you set your phone at USB-debug and charge only?
how to enable the USB debug?? i hve set myphone to chrge only still alpharex doesnt detect myphone..
USB debugging is under Settings->Applications->Development
does it take a long time for the alpharev X to dtect the phone cz i follow all ur instructions it still shows waiting for device..

No. It detects it almost immediately. Possible solutions:
- Make sure USB Debugging is On, as already said above
- Redownload the AlphaRev X Executable file
- Make sure Drivers are installed and working properly. There are 2 aspects to this:
1) Install HTC Sync, and, Uninstall it. The ADB Drivers will be installed
2) The HBoot Drivers are next. Guide to install that is here:

Its an example. The actual file will be the one you downloaded. (Theres a link in the first line of that guide called Unrevoked Modified USB Driver)
thanks i just install the hboot driver.. install htc sync and uninstall htc sync.. so now i hope alpharev x can detect my phone... again thank u 4 the help..
now rise another problem.. alpharev x can detect myphone but when i enter the beta key base my serial no it says invalid beta key...
im pretty sure i enter the right serial key and the right beta key..

Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
There are two possible solutions there again. But, before that, make sure you have entered the right details (Right Serial Number (HT0....), Right HBoot Version, Right Device Model).
Once you are sure these are correct:
- Solution 1 - Copy the beta key in your clipboard from the website, then right click the title bar of the AlphaRevX Application, Click Properties, then check mark Quick Edit Mode. Then Right click anywhere inside the window, it will paste the key.
- Solution 2 - Redownload the AlphaRevX Application from the website and retry.
EDIT: Ninja'ed, Oh well.
lol sory mymistake... actually i really put the wrong beta key...
now that i hve S-OFF myphone what should i do now... sorry i really dont know anything..
Two ways again:
1) Follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130044
2) Use Fastboot (Which I used)
- Download Android SDK - http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
- Download ClockworkMod Recovery - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1014498
- Extract the Recovery.img file from the 2nd link, and place it in your SDK Setup Path / Tools (eg: C:/android-sdk-windows/tools)
- Open a Command Window (cmd)
- Browse to the tools folder in this Command Window
- Type the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
- It will install ClockworkMod Recovery, you are done.
Then, simply follow Part 3 of this guide to install Custom ROMs and Stuff, irrespective of what you followed above.

EXE File.
That post simply means, that when you have completed installing your SDK, then, there will be a folder called "Tools" at your install location. Copy Paste the Recovery.img file to the Tools folder.
ok now i hve copy the recovery.img into tools
then open cmd right?? now what??

what PB99IMG did you flash? are you branded?
i used this
PB99IMG_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_r elease_159811_signed.zip
i tried also every other pb99img i could find... but other din't work at all
should i have a goldcard or rooted phone?
i think i am not branded, but i am not shure ://
if you have your phone on contract with e.g.Orange, O2, Vodafone etc then you are branded.
With a branded phone you need a goldcard to flash an unbranded PB99IMG.
To create a goldcard follow this tutorial. Notice however you need to skip the part where they find the CID of the SD-Card using the phone, and use this tool instead, COPY DOWN THE CID WITHOUT ANY SPACES, COMMAS ETC. JUST LETTERS/NUMBERS. Then follow from the tutorial.
Once you have a goldcard try to use the same RUU you used (PB99IMG_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_r elease_159811_signed.zip)
I guess that is why this metod did't wokr ha? :/

Hmm maybe, you could also try using a RUU instead?. What network are you on?
EDIT: By the way I just noticed you posted a 2nd thread, there was really no need.
i tried RUU
I tried milions of RUU's befor, but always the same. it shows me that i need more than 30% battery power. and i always had like... atleast 90%
I don't know what network i am on. its my friends phone.

you mean with the goldcard? yeah I said skip the part where they get the CID (and actually all of the parts where the phone is involved), just use the tool I sent you to get the CID, put your SD in an adapter and follow the tutorial

would be ok if i use my OWN desire, switch the sd cards and try it to go to the recovery (since i my desire doesn't work with his sd card, i tried that) and mount sd card trough recovery...

go to the folder where you installed adb and note the file directory. If you're having problems there's a section on my guide that can help you out
in cmd type
Code:
cd #file directory#
then carry on with the instructions on the tutorial
i found the directory
and yes i go into the folder android sdk and into the map tools...
then i should type adb devices
but it saids that the adb isn't a comand

no... still the same afte installing platform tools
should i install everything??
-android 4.0...
-and so on
perhaps because i have widows 7?
Did you also install USB drivers? Good tutorial for installing sdk can be found in my signature over adb / fastboot guide.

I apologize. I heard that in some cases, not even that could fix it. I meant to say that there is not a fix that works in 100% of scenarios (my three-vibe could not be rectified without the use of JTAG, which I did not want to get into here.)

What you need to do is download ClockWork Mod 5.0.2.8 from http://download.clockorkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.8-marvelc.img and then rename it to recovery.img. If you're on Windows, put it into the same directory as your ADB and fastboot commands. Next, you'll need to put your phone in fast boot mode. Go into HBOOT and choose "Fastboot" by scrolling with the volume keys and selecting with the power key.
Connect your phone to your computer.
Next, depending on the OS of your computer, launch Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Linux/Mac). Navigate to the directory with recovery.img. Now type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img and then power off your phone when it's done.
Now boot into recovery. Go to HBOOT and choose recovery. Now, get on your computer and find a ROM that you like (something fairly stable). Download it. Find Simon's super wipe. Download it.
Connect your phone to your computer (if you removed it earlier).
In recovery, scroll to Mounts and Storage. Go to USB Connect or something similar (it will be near the bottom). Then on your computer, place your desired rom and the super wipe. Remove the phone from your computer and choose "Go back" on your phone. Go back to the main menu.
Backup.
Flash the super wipe. Then flash your ROM.
Go back to the main menu and reboot.

Great!! thanks this seems legit I will try this as soon as I get to my PC uhm I have windows btw and have no clue how to put the cwm into my adb / fastboot directory but I will search more about it when possible thanks for your help
Well, if you're on Windows, you should have a directory like C:\Android\ or something like that.
If you're on a Mac just do:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery /path/to/recovery.img
If you want to have the file anywhere on Windows, you still need to have fastboot somewhere and then do the same command I just typed above.
For more instructions, follow the instructions in the guide under "I can't flash a custom recovery"

Tried unzipping the sdk file again then went to the android tried to launch and same result I'm on (windows 7 64x bit).
I downloaded something when I was searching forums that kind of sounded like the file I'm suppose to be downloading the platform tools but there called android tools instead here's the files in it below
adb
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
fastboot
Do you think this is the same thing? I've flashed roms on the Optimus V before so I am a little familiar with the platform tools but when i downloaded them last time I just have to go into SDK manager.

A thought just occured that I may have overlooked in my many (unsuccessful) attempts of curing a sent-to-me 3 vibe...
Correct me if I'm wrong on this, but sd needs to be made a goldcard; so that PG76IMG.zip will auto-load...
Been a long time since I attempted but I don't remember if I checked the sd to make sure it was goldcard'd. I will go charge it up and test this new theory tomorrow (still sitting in a side-basket at work). Sometimes my mind takes a minute to put ALL the pieces together

Right, a Goldcard (unless one is S-OFF or ENG) will be required. However, achieving a goldcard requires ADB access to your phone. (The Simple GoldCard tool reads a file in /proc/*/*/ I believe to get the CID required for goldcard.) Now, ADB access is quite difficult with a bricked phone as you cannot boot into Android (or recovery) and to get S-OFF you would need to borrow the HTC Wildfire S (it MUST be a Wildfire S) to get the goldcard required.
Even with what I just said, depending on how bad your phone is bricked (Flashing a GSM RUU, for example), you may have a 100% bricked radio, thus resulting in an entirely bricked HBOOT not allowing you flash a PG76IMG.zip.
Another idea I have is that the Marvel is a PG761**** for the model number, and an incorrect RUU is the most common brick for Marvelc. What may be an issue is that the Marvelc is a PG762**** model number. The current files we have for un-bricking are Marvelc, but the android-info.txt for modelid says PG762000, therefore a GSM HBOOT (especially a locked, RUU HBOOT) would not take that file as it is for Marvelc.
What I think would be necessary is: a goldcard + a PG76IMG.zip with a GSM android-info.txt, but Marvelc radio, ROM, HBOOT, etc.
This is my idea on how we may need to do this. However, as the GSM HBOOT cannot get S-OFF without XTC-Clip which we can't use due to a lack of SIM card slot.
To get a 100% working-in-all-methods 3-Vibe Brick Recovery Method, we are waiting for the people in the S-OFF thread to get a full software S-OFF. However, even with that, we may still have issues...
I have spent a lot of time thinking about this, actually. (I'm a planner; not a dev :crying: so I can't be of much help with the dev part.) However, if it ever becomes a Team BlueRidge project to fix this type of brick (or a project by any group) I will be happy to plan (but not test just yet).
Since now we're moving into a very difficult and not-so-noob-friendly as I am intending for this thread to be, it may be a good idea to either start a new brainstorming thread or to PM or IRC or something.
Anyway, those are my thoughts.

c. Copy SuperSU's or SuperUser's flashable zip to your SD card.

Hmm you got to do more reading.
C is the drive in your computer. Flashable zip is the one which can be 'flashed' ( installed) from recovery.

This is the flashable zip:
http://download.chainfire.eu/339/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.41.zip
I downgraded mine in 20 mins, its so simple. Basically u need to -
Unlock bootloader (google)
Flash recovery (google)
Flash superuser (google)
Then on ur pc u do the misc_version bit and in the cmd window u need to type in the ruu number that ur going to run so that when u do run the ruu, it thinks ur software number is 1.xx.xxxx NOT 2.xx.xxxx. Once uv finished misc_version part u need to boot back into fastboot and relock ur bootloader (fastboot oem lock) then run the ruu, if all goes well u can use revolutionary.
