sounds like your gold card failed. Try with another micro sd card. Also make sure your using MMC2 and not MMC1 when you make it.

what do u mean MMC2?
when i am writing adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid
it wont work then i am writing
adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid
or
adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:*/cid
mmc1 not found
mmc0 CID incorup
mmc2 bootloader stuck
I must downgrade!
please help
skype?

plz help me

have you found a solution? i ve the same problem than you

Use the tool for creating the gold card and select mmc2 in the tool.
My link in sig will help you with everything.

First thing you need to do is reading the WIKI

I would just a) verfiy you have adb setup and working, and then follow that wiki here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision
Just to verify, you are holding the T-mobile G2? If so you're fine even if you updated to 1.22 (for the tmob g2) ...just do an about phone in settings and scroll down to see what update you're on.
You'll read about possibly needing to do some hex editing to revert to 1.19 (if indeed you updated to 1.22), but steviewevie might correct me but I don't think that is the case any longer with the gfree method.
yes i have the 1.22 thanks for correcting me, so after i have adb up and working what are my next steps to root and s-off?

Follow that wiki guide Really that's the best advice I can give, first you'll adb push some files to the phone to do a quick temp root. Then, you'll adb push some more files over and do the deed.
edit: right about here once adb is g2g http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...sion#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD
Follow the Requirements part, do not pass go until you have it all including the terminal emulator app installed off the market (free is fine)

I assumed you have desire z because you said you got the 1.72 update!!!
sorry for the confusion guys im really sorry, i feel like a n00b but yea i have g2 not desire z so i have 1.22 so i can just root, im looking at the guide on the wiki and it says Make sure your phone's sdcard is mounted by your phone and not your computer when following these instructions so basically is saying make sure your sd card is in your phone not in the computer, right?

Right, just make sure you're not turned on to usb disk mode (not enabled) so the phone has use of it and not your pc.

You should be ok. On the G2 you have to select "USB sharing" to mount the SD card on your PC, so by default your phone should be mounting it.

NO.... these are the options you can run as part of the Gfree command, for example:
Code:
su
cd /data/local
chmod 777 gfree
./gfree[COLOR="Red"] -f[/COLOR]
sync
If you ran the -f option it would free everything, meaning it would "Radio S-Off, Sim Unlock and it would SuperCID(CarrierID) your phone.
OR
Code:
su
cd /data/local
chmod 777 gfree
./gfree [COLOR="red"]-S[/COLOR]
sync
If you ran the -S option it would only unlock your SIM to use other carrier SIM cards.
And so on.....
Its all clearly there in the wiki...

There were lots of reports of unlock codes causing the phone to not find networks. You need to follow the gfree method explained in the wiki. This will fix the no network issue (if it is the same as everyone else's anyway).

[Q] Need help quickly

Hey
ive been trying to get goldcard for my brothers HTC Desire HD but for some reason it just aint working, ive tried mmc2 and mmc1 ye everytime i execute the code in cmd it says the same thing please help
http://tinypic.com/r/qn01e0/7
^^thats whats i need help on^^
Have you formatted the SD card to FAT32?
yup formatted to fat32
Your missing a forward slash.
You entered
Code:
cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*cid
The guide says
Code:
cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*[B]/[/B]cid
Try that.

according to the instructions here the command you should be issuing is adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid you appear to be issuing adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*cid that would appear to be your problem, also the thread here suggests you should be using mmc2 not mmc1, try again copying the commands verbatim (personally I use copy and paste to make sure there is no transposition of characters)
Edit: Realise I was to slow to reply and Andy had already said the above, but hey it bears repeating
lol thanks
btw this line here for flashing the hboot
dd if=/data/local/hboot-eng.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p18
is the block meant to be block or blck??
You probably already figured it out, it's block. But I guess the command will just give an error if you spell it wrong.

[Q] HTC Desire Z Rooting Problems

Hello together
First of all i searched to solve my problem already. But after spending several hours by searching and trying I thought i better ask the community.
Well my problem is, that I can't root my phone. I tried diffrent ways and there was always the same result. If I use Visionary+ r14 and press temp root now (usb debugging activatet) it loads for a while and then it hangs on a black screen. Seems to freez always.
If I try it with the terminal emulator and the manual found http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD here, it hangs in the terminal emulator. I don't know the reason but i couldn't find another possibility to root my device.
sorry for my bad english and thank you
Which version of the stock rom are you on? 1.34 or 1.72 or 1.85?? If its 1.72 you need to downgrade your version number to 1.34 in order to root using the Psneuter Method found Here. If its the new 1.85 update, im not sure if that version is rootable or if the psneuter method works on it also.
I've got the 1.72 version of the rom. Well this exactly is my next problem. I tried to downgrade using your method some time before. When i enter the bootloader and it checks the sdcard it just prints CID incorrect.
I know that I have to create a goldcard to make the downgrade possible. To create a goldcard I fallowed also different manuals.
here are two i've tried:
http://android.modaco.com/content/general-discussion/305672/creating-a-goldcard/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683
there are always the same steps. I tried different manuals and tools. But in the end i got always the same cid which looks something similar to this: 1501004d344732444503ad020c67ade0 then i need the reverse string and the hexeditor and overwrite the first sector of the sdcard. but no matter which method i try, in the end I get always CID incorrect.
anybody already had a similar problem?
nobody had a similar problem?
well solution found... in all the manuals there was written about the "adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid" command.
because this method didnt work for me i searched and found the solution to change the command to "adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:*/cid". With this command i got a CID.
The problem was that I didnt search further in this direction because I had a CID. with the command "adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:*/cid" everything worked and i got another CID.
im hving th same problem....im on 1.72 rom and get stuck at wrong cid part like u.. ive tried everything...no joy
You tried all the mmc methods?
with mmc1 i got no cid, with mmc0 i got the wrong cid and with mmc2 it worked.
I will try again tomoz ..actually im gona try everything again...and then wait foor my hair to grow back so i can pull it out again

Fix USB Brick No Root

Hi Guys, sorry if this has been posted before but i have just spent 14 hours trying to un usb-brick my desire. Each method seemed to need root which i had lost.
Eventually i found these instructions, they are not mine, i only found them so total kudos to the author. to keep it simple (and remember this is for unrooted desires:
Requirements:
Fastboot (part of Android SDK) installed. For instructions on setting up fastboot, search guide on how to install ADB & Android SDK.
HTC Desire USB Unbrick Files .
Android Terminal Emulator app (Install from Android Market)
Procedure:
Reboot your device into its bootloader (fastboot) mode and connect it to your computer via USB.
Launch a Command Prompt window on your computer and enter this command:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
On your phone, Go to Menu > Settings > About phone > Software information and note down the Kernel version that you see there. If you see more than just numbers, only note down the numbers e.g. 2.6.32.15.
In the Command Prompt window on your computer, enter this command:
fastboot getvar cid
Note down the CID that you get. It should be something similar to ‘HTC__022’.
Visit this site, enter the CID from step 4 and the kernel version from step 3 as the ROM version, and click ‘OK’. This will generate an mtd0.img file and prompt you to download it. Save it somewhere you will remember.
Now connect your SD card to your computer using a card reader device or another phone, and transfer the extracted HTC Desire USB Unbrick files as well as this mtd0.img to it. Make sure the files are in the root of the SD card and not in any folder.
Insert the SD card back into your phone.
Launch Terminal Emulator on your phone and enter these commands:
cat /sdcard/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin > /data/data/jackpal.androidterm/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
cat /sdcard/flash_image > /data/data/jackpal.androidterm/flash_image
cat /sdcard/mtd0.img > /data/data/jackpal.androidterm/mtd0.img
cd /data/data/jackpal.androidterm/
chmod 755 rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin flash_image
/data/data/jackpal.androidterm/rageagainstthecage-arm5.bin
In case your phone seems to crash or shows erratic behavior, ignore it for now.
Completely quit Terminal Emulator: First press the ‘Home’ button and then go to Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All, find ‘Terminal Emulator’ there and tap ‘Force Stop’.
Launch Terminal Emulator again. This time, you should see a # prompt instead of $, indicating you have achieved temporary root access necessary for the next step.
Enter these commands in Terminal Emulator:
cd /data/data/jackpal.androidterm/
./flash_image misc mtd0.img
Finally, reboot your phone and you’re done.
That’s all there is to it – your USB brick issue should now be fixed.
If Mods believe this is easily accessible elsewhere on XDA, please delete the post but it took me 14 hours of trawling the net to get my desire un-bricked
regards
Whilst the info is good it's quite useless without the actual links. I'm sure I've seen similar info within these forums before though. Fortunately I've not managed to brick mine (yet).

Sorry about that, files now added to first post

Try to get visionary+ I don't think you can get it from the market but there are other places, this will give you temporary root as I couldn't get root using the rageagainstthecage, then extract the flash image and paste it with the mtd file in data, then carry on with the commands in as above after the root (so dnt enter commands for rageagainstthecage as that is a process for getting root)
If you need more details let me know as I know how it feels to almost have a very expensive paperweight

[Q] Downgrade Problems

Hi guys. I have a brand new Desire HD, T-mobile (uk) branded.
Running Android 2.2.1
Build number 1.84.110.3 CL334589 Release-Keys
I am trying to downgrade to 1.32 so that i can root. I have made a goldcard, using various methods (HxD, goldcard helper, and goldcard tool)...Following the guides, everything seems to go to plan, no error messages or anything.
I then go through the process of....
adb push psneuter /data/local/tmp
adb push misc_version /data/local/tmp
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell chmod 777 /data/local/tmp/misc_version
adb shell /data/local/tmp/psneuter
adb shell
cd /data/local/tmp
./misc_version -s 1.31.405.6
Again no problems there.....When phone is rebooted into bootloader, it loads the PD98IMG.zip file, and after checking it, I always get the error "update failed, incorrect cid" I don't know where I'm going wrong, the goldcard tools are reversing the CIDs for me.....Any tips ?
Thanks

I have tried the goldcard tool a few times now, with various micro SD cards (8GB samsung that was bundled with phone. 2gb sandisk. and 2gb kingston)
when I run it, selecting "mmc0" I get CID value as....
45010053454D3034479022CD0AA93E10
and it reverses it to...
003EA90ACD22904734304D4553000145 ...
Is that correct ? Then i fill in the details on PSAS and get my image emailed and load/patch the card with goldcard tool. If I try and get cid using "mmc1" I get messgae...
* daemon started successfully *
/sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid: No such file or directory
------------------------
Could not locate CID in output
And with gold card created, I o through the motions again, and keep getting Update failed, incorrect CID.
u can obtain temporary root???
i checked the commands of the first post and are ok...
really all the issues like this was solved formatting the sd again.. FAT for -2gb and fat 32 for 8gb sd card...

I had never rooted it or done anything to it . just wanted to make sure i have a functional RUU in backup in case i want to send for warranty.what should i do? i'm from malaysia btw
Any problems regarding CID Error mean you need a goldcard. If you've made one and you still get this error, your card isn't gold. Try using a different card.
thanks guys for all the help and replies.
I finally got my goldcard to work, ended up buying a new card and using that, and it worked first time.
I now have downgraded to 1.32, have perm root, radio s-off, and eng s-off. I've just upgraded radio to latest version, and I'm about to upgrade to android revolution HD 5.1.7.
Thanks again for all the help

if your phone is unbranded you don't need a gold card
I will repeat what I said just incase there is any confusion.
Any CID related errors while trying to downgrade mean you need a goldcard. No if's no but's, a goldcard will be required. Remember there are unbranded builds that will not have the WWE CID.
One example is builds found in the East. WWE = x.xx.405.x Indian = x.xx.720.x
They are both unbranded, however a goldcard is required to flash from 720 to 405. I hope I've cleared things up.

Any CID related errors while trying to downgrade mean you need a goldcard. No if's no but's, a goldcard will be required. Remember there are unbranded builds that will not have the WWE CID.
One example is builds found in the East. WWE = x.xx.405.x Indian = x.xx.720.x
They are both unbranded, however a goldcard is required to flash from 720 to 405. I hope I've cleared things up.

Yes, you have cleared things up. Thank you very much. So if I create a goldcard and flash the ruu 1.32.405.x ,will it cause any problem if I send it for warranty service? Because I can't find the ruu with 1.84.707.2 for my phone. Is there any ruu for Malaysia or Asia yet?

I'm pretty sure the 405 version WWE (World Wide English) will be Ok to return as it is an official HTC build.
Alright. Thanks. So do I still need to downgrade my stock rom even with a goldcard? Am planning to flash the 2.36.405.x ruu over my current rom.

i need some help here, im getting to section B step 23 of the guide to rooting and flashing and then something not so good is happening with my phone.
In getting "process stopped unexpectedly" messages from (android.process.acore)
they are constantly popping up.
i've previously had the problem of incorrect CID as well, but it solve after i format the MMC to FAT 32 and redo the goldcard steps
