[Q] Why is my clockworkmod reverting to 2.5?

Everytime I flash the the new zip version (3.0.0.5) and then reboot, it reverts back to the old version.
Thanks!
Device: HTC Desire (S-On)
ROM: Gingervillain 2.1
Radio: 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
RIL: HTC-RIL 2.2.0131HM

How are you flashing?

Off thou flash it through recovery your just fake flashing it. You need to actually flash it through fastboot but you need S-Off. There is a way to do it without fastboot. Just Google it. You use the terminals emulator instead. No idea if it works though
Sent from CM7

as meaple has said, its only a fake flash, so it doesnt actually flash it.
i couldnt get it to work through the terminal method either due to protections (s-on) but i have now s-off, so it let me flash via fastboot first time

Can I do it with unrevoked or do I have to s-off? (assuming i won't make it with the terminal)

I've never been s-off and I flashed it successfully during rooting with unrevoked.

yes you can do it with unrevoked, but you would have to unroot first, and then go unrevoked with custom recovery

hi, i have the same problem, but i am s-off
i tryed to flash via android flasher, fastboot, an via recovery with the .zip file.
everytime the same Oo

Are you sure your S-OFF?
Because then it should work!

Zip is not what you need. You need to get an img file of the recovery you want to flash. You can then do that via Fastboot or Android Flasher etc. Flashing the zip from wherever is still just fake flashing.

No. you don't have to un root. You can flash unrevoked on a rooted device
If you are s on, use unrevoked. Else use the following from fast boot:
fastboot flash recovery cwm_.img

Messed up cant htcdev to unlock boot

Hi All
I tried the ace hack kit again to get s-off and really messed up
It went through the process until it said radio flashed please wait....
Phone rebooted and stuck on the white htc screen
Managed to recover with a pd98.img but this has wiped my root and 4ext and the phone boots into 2.33 sense 2.1
hboot has changed from 2.0xxxxxxx to 0.85.0024
Problem is when i do the htcdev procedure to unlock the bootloader i get an error when running fastboot oem get_identifier_token
It just says bootloader command error
Help!!

My DHD was originally branded Virgin from the UK the cid is VIRGI001

Which one can I use?

Then you will need to make a Goldcard then download the WWE Version then run the .exe and get the rom.zip file copied some where then with goldcard inplace run fastboot with the following commands
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip rom.zip
That will then flash it. make sure before running fastboot your in the same place as fastboot and the rom.zip file though

Ok made the goldcard (hopefully)
My image build is 2.50.405.2
There isnt a build higher than this on the list but there is a wwe build with the same number

All the other builds are lower
Will this work?
Stu

ps
On Windows 7 any idea where the rom zip is extracted to when the exe is run?

Rom.zip will be any one of the folders in temp just type %temp% in run box. As for the Rom if that's the latest then it's the latest.
Also 3.x.405 is latest

All looks like it worked
The fastboot sent a load of files to the phone
And it completed ok
But phone is still on the black htc screen with the green progress bar appx 95% across
What do i do now?

If fastboot says completed just type.fastboot reboot

Have you installed the HTC dev boot yet if not then do the same with that
As you did with the ruu via fast boot

Hi Hacktrix
You're being really helpful and I appreciate it.
Sorry for being a bit thick but what do you mean by installing the HTC dev boot?
Have i missed something?
I cant get the token still as it still says bootloader error
Flashing the rom.zip seems to go without error but nothing changes on the phone
Cheers
Stu

Not a problem. Right have you gone to the HTC dev site and registered
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda app-developers app
If so i can do everything for you including S-Off'ing your device if you want that done too.

Yes im reg on htcdev
I already htcdev unlocked this phone prior to me messing it up with the ace hack kit
yes id like it s-off as well
Just easier flashing roms as before had to flash rom and fast boot the boot.img

Send me a PM and i will help you ok mate

Help, can't flash any KitKat ROMs! [How to update recovery]

This seems to keep coming up so for those of you who can't find the fix, please don't create new threads or post all over the developers forum
The most likely reason you can not flash 4.4.x and newer ROMs:
You have an old recovery
why would this matter?
Basically the way permissions are handled in the updater-script (what tells your device how to flash the ROM) have changed
and thus if you flash a newer ROM with an older recovery you will more than likely see a similar error to this:
set_metadata_recursive: some changes failed
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So how do I change recoveries?
you need grab a flashable.zip of the new recovery and then flash it in current recovery
or
a better and safer way is to use fastboot to flash the new recovery
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
*note, change 'recovery.img' accordingly if this is not how the image is named
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
two other quick notes:
*you can just fix the updater-script yourself to be able to flash a new ROM in an old recovery, but really this is time consuming and poitless
*another method to flash the recovery is to create a PC10IMG.zip and place on SDcard then boot to bootloader to flash, but more work than needed

Pick one of these recoveries

md5sum for 4ext: 689db0675c068f3513d3551940581ec0

md5sum for TWRP: 1F300E620CD78829D440E52C291F909F
Which recovery to use? 4ext is problem free, the other two have slight issues but all should be fine for the most part

Silly mistake led to softbrick..
Could you please help me with this problem?
I had CWM 6.0.4.5 flashed in order to install Flinny's CM11 Alpha 5, FC were very common so I was really excited for PureKat ROM
but then I didn't read the instructions carefully enough and switched the phone off instead of rebooting the system after leaving Aroma installer...
Now I'm stuck in a bootloop which constantly shows me the HTC splash, sometimes 2 seconds of CWM and then HTC logo again. I can get into Hboot menu but Factory Reset and Recovery lead back to bootloop, and my laptop (Windows 7 Professional) won't access the sdcard. Silly me also disabled USB debugging but that shouldn't be a problem because I did a full wipe before installing PureKat, right?
Anyways, I can't seem to establish any connection between PC and my DZ in Hboot, otherwise I would have tried to flash a new recovery just as you said
Any help is welcome, thanks in advance!

First thing to do would be to boot into bootloader and write down everything from that screen here, actually here

Is it safe to install ClockworkModRecovery 6.0.4.5 on HTC Desire Z (HTC Vision / G2)? On ClockworkMod site I found only 5.0.2.7 for HTC G2.

Yes it is safe, but not 100% perfect. The reason its not on the cwm site is that it isn't official and hasn't been submitted to become official, maybe some day.

For fastboot commend we need : eng hboot OR unlocked hboot from the htc website (limited commend, but enough for flash a recovery).
So , if some DZ user were too lazy like me , and didn't flash the eng Hboot, but did all the other steps from the wiki to get the root (including s-off), and won't to go through the wiki again, just use the demkantor PC10IMG file from post #30 here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728208&page=3
It work for me. Downside : current rom will bootloop. Can't do restore CWM from 4ext. only fresh install.

Good point @overdose
I do highly recommend an engineering hboot and radio s-off for many reasons, but yes simply unlocking your bootloader will allow you to flash a recovery, but most fastboot commands will still be unavailable

I'm getting 'not allowed' error when trying to use fastboot flash command. I think I did made all steps when rooting and unlocking my phone, but is it maybe connected with 'wrong' hboot?

You probably have a shipped bootloader, boot into your hboot and write down everything from that screen here

1.> Put the "PC10IMG.zip" into "C:\" drive..(u can put it into any other directory)...
2.> Now restart your phone into fastboot mode...
3.> Plug your USB from PC to Mobile..(now it should say "FASTBOOT USB" in red text in Mobile)..
4.> Now open CMD...and type "fastboot oem rebootRUU"
5.> You should now be on the black screen with the HTC logo so now type "fastboot flash zip c:\PC10IMG.zip"...
(NOTE:If you get a message saying 'Failed, repeat immediately'.......just re-run "fastboot flash zip PC10IMG.zip")
Now you should see a green status bar on the black screen
And You are done!.....

Wait, your instruction is for ZIP files and you did put link to IMG file. Will it work for IMG file, or I should just use zip file from here for example: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ucdfd91qn7h1dbm/kTTY8yOJLN/PC10IMG ?

Actually I planed to do so. I'm curious if your instructions applies to IMG files to (directly or with small modifications)?

Until you have an engineering bootloader most fastboot commands are unavailable. Grab the .zip from post 30 in that link and follow the directions there.
Alex was having a similar issue to yours earlier but he couldn't get the PC10IMG.zip to work on his SD card so he used the rebootRUU method, which could also work for you. I would advise to understand both methods as they can be helpful to learn down the road
To answer your question directly, you must use the .zip, .imgs will not work with either method

I was sure method with sd card would work fine so tried rebootRUU and it worked. Below is method that worked for me. It is simply whole instruction for getting new recovery when starting without eng HBOOT. This is just 'compilation' of instructions from Alex Mitter and demkantor.
Download DZ_PC10IMG.zip from demkantor dropbox
Connect phone to PC (adb devices to be sure it is recognized properly)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
to switch to HBOOT. I didn't need to switch to fastboot as it was already in fastboot mode. You might want to use fastboot devices to be sure it is recognized properly again
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Code:
fastboot flash zip DZ_PC10IMG.zip
to flash eng HBOOT
Code:
fastboot reboot-boootloader
to get back to HBOOT and validate it.
Download CWM recovery from 1st post in thread
Code:
fastboot flash recovery CWMrecovery.img
to flash freshly downloaded recovery
switch to recovery from HBOOT to verify version and proceed with PureKat instalation from there

Hey pal first off, this is the wrong forum. This is the old wildfire forums not the wildfire s. But I shall help you out none the less
Since your phone is hboot unlocked but not s-off you need to flash your custom roms boot.img via fastboot just after you flash the rom via recovery. When you download the rom it comes in a zip file, unzip a copy of it and place the boot.img in your fastboot folder, then copy the zip to your sd card and then flash via recovery. Once it's flashed boot into hboot by using advanced reboot options I think its called. Then flash the boot.img using the command
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Where boot.img is the name of the .img you took from the zip file (just in case you have renamed it and don't know why the command is not working)
Then do fastboot reboot and the phone should boot up okay. You need to flash the boot.img for every rom change that you do. Also should you decide you want to run a RUU you must relock you hboot or it won't run.

HI.
firste off i would like to thank you for taking the time to responde to my question and im sorry about posting in the wrong forum.
i watched the XDA DEV noob video on youtube about being a noob so before i posted my question i looked through each and every post i could find about my phone s problem but NO LUCK so i decided to ask the experts
*i did relock my bootloader before i ran the Ruu and it didnt work it said main version too old and since my costume rom is based on andoird 2.3.7 and my htc can only go as far as 2.3.5 and ruu wont let you downgrade so i figured it might not work.
*now you suggested that i flash the costume rom via recovery and thats the problem i cant even get in to my recovery it just gets stuck on the white htc screen and i tried flashing the recovery Again (twrp) and nothing. even other recoveries wouldnt work.
*i flashed about 4 roms and they all worked just fine even this last one and i didnt flash the boot.img and i was able to reboot normally
THANK YOU.

Okay so, let's recap.
You are on a custom android rom.
You have a custom recovery installed.
Your cannot flash the RUU as your run version is higher than the RUU.
Lastly you cannot boot into your custom Rom, or your recovery?
Do you want to return to stick it get a custom Rom flashed?

Q: if i flash a system via fastboot successfully will it automaticly erase the old one because i tried to erase it but it said remot controle not allowed (S-on)

ok, ive requested this thread be moved to its correct forum.
before proceeding can you tell me when your htc wildfire marvel was made? after 2012?
can you flash clockworkmod recovery and then try flashing a custom htc sense rom
Then reboot back into cwm recovery (by selecting advanced/ reboot-recovery in the menus) and plug the phone into your computer via usb cable. open up your command prompt and move to your adb folder. type the following commands ( a # denotes instructions and should not be typed into the command window)
Code:
adb devices
#this should show your device up, maybe saying its in recovery mode
adb shell
# the command prompt should change to a # symbol
Now make sure you have a sdcard in the phone and then run the following command
Code:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
This should leave you with a file called misc.img on your sdcard. Lastly
Code:
exit
exit
exit
your command window should have closed. now upload this file to a online storage system like dropbox and send me a pm with a link to it. I will edit it and you can flash it back, this will relock your hboot and downgrade your software version so that RUU's will work. then we will run a RUU, returning your phone to stock and functional state

Hmm.... Okay reflash twrp and see if it boots up. Without a recovery your options are limited. You need to be careful as your device uses a different kernel from older versions of the wildfire s. If you flash a older RUU version it will kill your phone.
Do you have any phone unlock shops near you?

Make sure when you go to the unlock shop you make sure they use an XTC clip http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/Unlocking/xtc_clip.htm
If they don't have it then do not pay for an unlock. You need s-off not SIM unlocked. Make sure to ask for it. Once your S-off you can run any RUU and fix the phone but check in here first so I can ensure that its compatible with your 2012 edition of the phone ( as I said flashing one that is too old will kill the phone!)

HTC wildfire Rooted but still S-On..cannot flash CWM recovery and CM 7

Please help..
I've been planning to install a CM7 my old HtC Wildfire A3333 to give it a new life.I have successfully unlocked the bootloader through HTCDEV and gained root by using WinDroid..Also have SuperSU installed already and used ROM
Manager to flash CWM recovery/TWRP..But when I reboot to access Recovery it goes back to stock Android recovery and it says INSTALLATION ABORTED when installing Zip from SD card..I know I cannot use REVOLUTIONARY because my HROOT is 1.02.000 and I find it hard to downgrade to HBOOT 1.01.000..Did I mess up on something???
Thanks XDA..

you need to flash clockworkmod Via fastboot commands buddy. Download clockworkmod as a recovery.img and then flash it using the command fastboot flash recovery recovery.img, its similar to when you flashed the unlock_token.bin to unlock your hboot so the recovery.img needs to be in the fastboot folder.

Thanks HMM..Still cannot flash I'm sorry for being stupid this is my first time rooting..do i need to s-off first? ..please check my screenshots
ALSO tried your suggestion on PC49img.Zip..Also not working

Follow this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484124 do the s-off commands after you have downloaded the .img place it within your adb/ fastboot folder.

Flashing a custom recovery from a stock recovery wont work. It checks that the stuff its about to flash is from htc and a custom recovery is not made by htc. You must use fastboot. What errors if any is the fastboot command giving you?

In the fastboot commands is (Waiting for Device)....I've waited for 15 mins but I think the PC is not recognizing the phone..It also says ONE OF THE Usb is not working something like that.....
I've read in one of XDA treads that Its possible to DISABLE Signature VERIFICATION
Will that work??one more thing, what is the easiest and PROVEN way to S-off HTC WILDFIRE with HBoot 1.02.000...much like revolutionary..Many Thanks..

Use windows 7
Windows 8 didn't work with fastboot only adb with my HTC WILDFIRE A3333, Windows 7 works install driver from windows
IF you are only looking forward for CWM recovery you don't need fastboot

Copy in a zip named PC49IMG.zip not extracted, use bootloader in HBOOT it should flash if not found try goldcard

Thanks..Yeah thats what Im really thinking because I unlocked it using windows 7..but I dont have access to window 7 right now..I'll try tomorrow..Hopefully I'll RESURRECT the worst ANDROID PHONE EVER! According to a recent Top Ten..

Done! CyanogenMod 7 installed on my Wildfire....Thanks heavy_metal_man and bluecub1st.. Really Appreciated It....Now i'm planning to
root my wife's Nexus 7 (2012).. Battery and Lagging problems when I updated it to Lollipop....
