[Q] How can I disable signature checking?

I want to flash userdata.img, system.img, recovery.img, boot.img files via ADB to my Desire in order to unroot my 2.1, then make it able to upgrade to 2.2 via OTA.
I am using rooted HK 2.1 ROM, have downloaded Asia WWE 2.1 RUU and extracted those .img files.
How can I disable the signature checking? I've got below errors when I tried to flash the img file to my Desire.
C:\r5>fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
sending 'userdata' (2 KB)... OKAY
writing 'userdata'... INFOsignature che
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)

If you are using a custom recovery like clockwork mod or Amon ra. There is an option called "Toggle Signature".

thanks, but ADB is unable to connect to the device if it is in recovery mode, can only be in fastboot mode. So that I need to disable signature checking in fastboot mode.

I'm looking the answer for the same problem. I get "signature verification failed" when using fastboot flash method. Any instructions got how to disable signature check?

i've tried flashing the original recovery.img to Desire, still can't solve the signature check problem. I also have tried doing below:
push flash_image and mtd0.img (what should be the CID of HK 2.1 official rom?) to Desire through ADB, the execute like: flash_image misc mtd0.img
however the upgrade still couldn't pass the signature check... sigh..

You can't do that with the bootloader on the desire. Our version of fastboot is "S-ON" (security enabled). You need an engineering bootloader (S-OFF) to flash images using fastboot. Hopefully we will get this one day.

So, is there any way I can flash the images I build for Desire? (I have rebuild the froyo platform for desire)
Can I flash them via sdcard using for e.g clockwork or similar recovery method?

Pack the contents of out/product/target/bravo/system into a zip fille (just the system directory) along with the boot.img, and flash it using clockwork recovery. Toggle signed files to off to allow this or sign the file using testsign.jar (you can find it on the board here somewhere).
You will have to remove the symlinks in out/product/target/bravo/system/bin and symlink them again during the flashing process using an update-script or you will have a lot of broken stuff (like dhcp), check inside an existing rom like CyanogenMod to see how the update-script is constructed and how get the syntax right.

Currently in order to unroot Desire, is to push flash_image and mtd0.img to Desire through ADB, and then execute like: flash_image misc mtd0.img, then is able to run any RUU to unroot Desire. Since we still do not have RUU 2.1 or 2.2 for official HK rom (not test rom), we have no way to unroot our HK Desire.
I am thinking if there is any trick can mimic a RUU .exe file which is able to change back the CID or signature file to an official Hong Kong one. Then OTA can be done as it check signature during OTA upgrade. Do you think it is workable?

I zipped system.img and boot.img and toggled off the signed files in clockwork and flashed the zipped (50Mb) package. All were installed really way too fast and without errors. After reboot nothing was updated. Next steps? Any ideas?

eh.. delete me

Update to previous post. I did zip the system directory + boot.img. Actually, in a second try I also zipped system.img to same package. And I also removed the symlinks from ../bin directory. And then flashed. I got no errors but again installing (clockwork) was really quick and after reboot nothing changed. The weird thing is that I do not get any errors no matter what I'm zipping.
What can I try next?

technically, that is incorrect.
S-ON or S-OFF is a flag that's being interpreted by fastboot/hboot.
The engineering bootloader you talk about, ignores this flag and exposes developer options like flashing through the fastboot protocol directly, without a signature.

I like the theory, but you would probably have to fool the RRU so that it thinks your img files have the same checksums as the original img files. I've never heard of anyone being able to repack and flash an RRU file.

Btw, forget about your system.img, you can't use it .. you have to work with the contents of the system directory instead

Are you sure about that? I had always thought that S-OFF meant it was an engineering bootloader.
I didn't think you could get an engineering bootloader that was also S-ON.

Bootloaders are either ship or eng.
The latter ignores secuflag and allows extended fastboot commands.
So bootloader or s-off are two separate things.
S-off is mainly for unsigned flashing and nand writelocks.

only on cdma desire.
For gsm desire you will need to wait for our s-off/eng hboot 0.93 release.
This is a patched hboot to ignore security, and allow extended fastboot commands.
So essentially S-OFF and eng.

Flashing the misc partition allows you to bypass (fake, really) version checks with an RUU flash, nothing more. It doesn't affect root nor does it have anything to do with signature checking (which is currently impossible to disable on the GSM Desire).

[Q] Error flashing recovery.img (CWM v3.0.2.8)

So i currently have ROM Manager v4.0.0.1 (but i havent flashed CWM yet) and ofc S-OFF and rooted, and HBOOT .85 and Stock ROM.
I tried to flash CWM v3.0.2.8 normally but i get this message in FastBoot USB mode
//------------------------------------------------------------------
C:\HTC_Ace\tools>fastboot-windows flash recovery ./recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4286 KB)... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)
//------------------------------------------------------------------
so i thought i would manually flash it with a terminal.
i then found out that i didnt have flash_image, so i found a download link and put it in my /system/bin/ file, and typed
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
# flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
error scanning partitions
//-------------------------------------------------------------------
any solutions?, for the first or second problem?, i just want CWM -
::and side note, can i access the original HTC Bootloader with this installed?

Do you have ENG S-OFF? Regular S-OFF doesn't cut the mustard when it comes to flashing via fastboot.

I think I do!, I used the easy radio software thingy when I rooted, so I presume so.
Sent from my Desire HD

Double check your CID in "System Info" in the bootloader. Does it Read CID: 11111111

there are only 4 options in the bootloader, i cannot see the "system info" option

If you cannot see "System Info" then you don't have ENG S-OFF, Just use THIS tool and you'll have it in no time.

Guys, no one tried to install recovery.img by replacing the same file in the firmware?

yo, so i did internet pass through on my phone and click 'flash ClockworkMod Recovery' in ROM Manager, and it installed v3.0.2.6.
My question is, if my phone didnt have ENG S-OFF the flash recovery that ROM Manager did; wouldnt have worked right? - its written in the last detailed process in the link you provided to me andy.

No with S-off rom manager can flash a recovery, but you can't flash via fastboot.

E:Cant mount /cache/recovery/command

Unfortunately i gave the phone back to a friend who need help, so cant provide any info

Hi there,
I have the same issue.
Am running the carrier ROM (Telstra - Australia), on a HTC Desire GSM. I rooted it using unrevoked 3, and the phone is working fine, except for the Clockwork Mod recovery.
When I boot into recovery mode, I'm not able to load custom roms or make nandroid backups. It just gives errors about not being able to mount CACHE or MISC partitions.
I tried updating clockwork to 3.0.0.5, but that failed to resolve it, as did another go with unrevoked. I can't even do factory wipes! Cache wipe was also ineffective.
Is there possibly a problem with the /recovery partition? Any way to correct it? I don't have s-off, as alpharev fails with some error about expecting unary operators. Otherwise I'd try pushing a new recovery image through with fastboot.
I've checked every thread where this is mentioned, no resolutions yet that don't involve using fastboot. Some help would be nice.

Do you have a pvt4-desire? If, you have to flash amonra-recovery, because cwm is incompatible with pvt4-desires.

or CWM 2.5.1.8 will work in addition to AmonRa. I've used both with my PVT-4.
and flash your recovery from fastboot, not by using unrevoked, it's just easier.

On another note, whenever i tried remounting the /system for RW access to copy flash_image, free space drops to Zero Kb. To isolate, i tried remounting to just Read access, free space remained the same. Anything I'm missing here, or do I really have to S-OFF my phone before I can make changes on my /system ?
Thank you very much.

[Q] Bricked or is there still hope?

I'm messing around since 3 days with a non working Desire.
I was trying to root that Vodafone UK Branded Phone with a goldcard, but it somehow did't really work stable.
So I managed it to install a RUU in order to revert it and begin the Process from the beginning on:
1.This was the RUU, and everything went fine: RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Vodafone_UK_2.33.161.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_157522_signed
2.Then I tried to downgrade my HBOOT from 0.93.0001 to 0.80 using the method in this thread (with goldcard!)
3. During the installation of the PB99IMG.zip something went wrong and (maybe a mismatch with goldcard or the mtd0.img, i still don't know / understand) HBOOT could not be updated and RADIO-V2 also
4. now I cant boot the Phone at all or issue adb commands (I think the phone needs to be fully booted and USB-debbug-enabled for this) so I cant follow any of the solutions wich I found in the last two days. A PB99IMG.zip is also not flashable in HBOOT since it just cancels after "Checking..[PB99IMG.zip]" and returns back to the HBOOT screen.
Here's my phones specs:
CID: VODAP102
PVT4
S-ON
HBOOT 0.93.0001
MICROP-051d
SLCD
RADIO 5.11.05.27
If someone has an idea where to start, any help would be greatly apreciated. If someone is even willing to assist via instant messaging or skype I would be happy to compensate his time with a donation via paypal! Thank you in advance!
EDIT: SOLVED!!!

I was able to enter RUU mode and flash the PB99IMG.zip in 2 quick steps!

I think it must have something to do with a wrong mtd0.img which was flashed during my first attempt to downgrade (mybe not matching the PB99IMG???) or there is a problem with the goldcard (i am very certain that I did everythin correct with the gc, did it manually and also tith the gc-maker)

if you can access the bootloader menu (vol down + power) then you should be able to fix your phone.

Boot the phone into bootloader menu.
connect usb cable.
in command prompt load the SDK folder, instead of typing adb.exe type fastboot.exe.
place the hboot you want into the "platform-tools" folder in the SDK directory - if its in the pb99img.zip then extract the .img file from there and place just that file into the folder.
type "fastboot flash hboot *name-of-file.img*"
if this works then type
type "fastboot reboot-bootloader"
type "fastboot erase cache"
Not sure it will work though as you are S-ON.
However you should be able to flash a recovery through the same way, type "fastboot flash recovery *name.img*". Not sure if this will help fix it, but if you can access recovery then its a start! Obviously you'll need to download a recovery first and place it into the platform-tools folder.

Hmmm. This is going to be hard to get out of as you upgraded your Hboot. Does the phone still register fastboot commands? Also what downgrade thread did you follow?

That's not what I mean, to unlock your bootloader you would have had to issue the command fastboot OEM unlock, or fastboot flash OEM unlock unlock_token.bin or something similar. These types of commands are the ones I'm interested in I want to see if you can flash clockworkmod recovery pal.

I downgraded with the standard buzzdowngrade.zip package, step1 but the goldcard-step fail.....i flashed after hboot downgrade RUU_Buzz_Vodafone_DE_1und1_1.19.186.3_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_133745_signed.exe
Than was the problem with the touch ... it dont work.
After this i tryed many ruu's ....no way.
Than i downloaded from htcdev - PC4910000_Buzz_Froyo_hboot_1.02.0000_R3.exe and flashed and unlocked with Unlock_code.bin
I was thinking i would be able to unlock and update every rom

Ok so fastboot works, good good. Do you have clockworkmod recovery installed? If not follow my thread for rooting hboot 1.02.0000 and install clockworkmod but go no further.
Also just for your information the ruu will not install because of
1. Your honor is higher than the ones in the RUU,
2 your bootloader is unlocked.
We need to downgrade you to the WWE rom with hboot 1.01.0001 and hopefully that will restore your touch panel to working order

Clockworkmod recovery is installed, rooting hboot 1.02.0000 o.k.
and now?

ok so what we want to do know is downgrade your hboot to 1.01.0001 so to do that we need your misc partition to be edited. as such i would like you to boot the phone into clockworkmod recovery and connect it to the pc with a usb cable. windows should install the drivers if it has not done so already.
next you will need to set up your command prompt for using adb/fastboot commands.
then we will pull a copy of your misc partition to your sdcard and then copy it into your windows adb folder.
then you will upload that image to me, i will make the necessary changes and then re-upload for you.
then you will flash it to the phone all going well, re-lock your bootloader and then downgrade your hboot and rom and hopefully regain touch input
then as an extra if you want to use a rooted version of that german ruu you were trying to flash i can make you a "safe to flash" version
ok, so....
step 1. Connect your wildfire up to your pc In clockworkmod recovery mode.
step 2. open a command prompt within your adb/fastboot folder. (the same one you used to flash clockworkmod recovery)
step 3. enter the following commands one at a time. copy paste is recommended.
Code:
adb shell
su
cat /dev/mtd/mtd0 > /sdcard/misc.img
exit
exit
adb pull /sdcard/misc.img misc.img
step 4. Upload this file to somewhere like dropbox or media fire and then send me a link to it.

in command prompt
su
/sbin/sh: su: not found
what i do wrong?

okey dokey, here is your new misc image. extract it into your adb folder.
i have edited this so it will re-lock your bootloader automatically once you have flashed it. one problem solved
also download this package, it has some tools you will need and the WWE rom you need to flash
lastly we need to make a goldcard. this will be hard given that your touch screen is non-functional. as such you will need a different, working android phone and YOUR sdcard. this trick is sdcard specific so dont swap them about
ok once you are ready with the right stuff, do these steps.
step 5. now we need to make a gold card. if you already have one, you can skip this part. first using your working android phone, download and install Goldcard helper from the android market. Run the app and copy down your SD cards reverse cid. double check it
step 6. now go to this website here and enter in your reverse cid. it will then let you download a goldcard.img.
step 7. now go back to the package you downloaded earlier with the WWE rom (named 1.01.zip) in it and run the goldcardtool.exe, this will flash the goldcard to your sd card. Warning! this will format your card!! in order to achieve this you will have to mount the sdcard from clockworkmod recovery to the computer, use mount usb storage and not mount sdcard.
step 8. once that is done we are now ready for the final push

Now the gold card is ready, i leave al the data on the goldcard, its not been formatted. Goldcard tool says, G: Goldcard is now ready.
The new misc image, must be copy to the phone ?

ok from here copy the Nmisc.img to your sdcard and do not rename it, leave it on the sd card within no folders.
then connect up the phone in clockworkmod recovery again, and mount the sdcard with mount sdcard and not usb mass storage.
lastly make sure that the 1.01.zip is in your adb folder.
issue the following commands.
Code:
adb shell
(your shell symbol should be a #)
flash_image misc /sdcard/Nmisc.img
exit
(now it should not be a #)
adb reboot bootloader
The phone should not reboot into bootloader and should say at the top locked OOW.
This is ok, if it does not say this then your misc image was not flashed.
if all is well issue these commands.
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip 1.01.zip
This will state an error, and that it needs to be reflushed. this is what we want, if any other issue your goldcard may have failed.
repeat the last command to reflush.
Code:
fastboot flash zip 1.01.zip
(this will take a while.)
fastboot reboot
the phone should reboot into the WWE stock rom and hopefully your touch screen will be working again. if it is proceed to s-off with revolutionary here ignore all but revolutionary and then if you want the german ruu as a safe flash rom send me a link to the ruu and I will make it. but it make take a few days.
im at work atm so my replys will be delayed pal, good luck

Your gold card has failed. Format the sdcard and then reissue the fastboot commands.
