New Hboot

Ok guys heres a quick q/ .I want to try some Gb ++ roms and obviously i need the ++ hboot since im using the stock one.So after i flash the hboot,what will happen to the phone,i.e. will i still have my recovery?

To my knowlegde the flash of the hboot only changes the bootloader.

Only ROM you currently use wont boot up no more. Recovery etc will stay untouched.
So flash new hboot, then wipe all, then flash ROM

And remember that even though they are called data++ you might be needing CM7 hboot actually, make sure what is said in ROM thread.

Cool3D Aces v7 stuck in bootloop

I'm trying to flash Cool3D Aces v7. Here's some info on my phone
BravoC DVT2SHIP S-OFF (achieved by Revolutionary)
HBoot 6.06.1002
Radio 2.15.00.02.17
I've wiped everything except my SD. I've created an ext-4 partition using 4ext. I've checked the alignment with 4ext and it was perfect.
I flashed v6. I then flashed hboot_stock. Then I flashed v7, and then the hboot_stock again for good measure.
I continue to get stuck in bootloop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

As you have a BravoC you need to flash CDMA converter from coolexe

v7 is the GSM-CDMA converter. I've done everything to the letter. Would changing to the cm7/r2 bootloader have any impact?

What you mean changing to cm7? did you or not?
all alpharev hboot are DESIGNED for DESIRE GSM
where did you find V7?

First of all, thank you for responding.
I have not changed. I'm using the stock bootloader, as far as I can tell. I am, however, currently running a cm7 nightly(which I know has no impact on this conversation).
V7 is the gsm to cdma script I found on www(dot)cooldevs(dot)com/archives/394
I miss HTC sense in some regards, and really liked the looks of this rom. That is why I wanted to give it a go.

thank god you did not...
1. do back up with recovery
2. wipe all partitions + dalvik
3 flash in this order: Rom.zip > GSM_to_CDMA.zip > weather_pack.zip > stock_hboot.zip
4 reboot
btw one guy posted is not working properly on cdma... Could be your case too?
just have a go... fingers crossed for you...
if not try to pm coolexe for any advice

Still didn't work. I guess I'll have to msg cool exe.

How to upgrade hboot

Hi all, so I've been trying to update my hboot from 0.75.0000 to .93 but have been FAILING miserably. I'm currently on ICS, and have tried alpharev which didn't work. Trying to flash rom to RUU has also failed but I don't know why. Flashed my radio to match the one with the RUU and that didn't work, which i'm guessing is due to the inability to simply flash from ICS to 2.2 or 2.3?
So my question is, any other tips?

Try to flash the hboot downgrade from alpharev then the right RUU. If that works you can root and s-off your phone with unrevoked/revolutionary. If you want to change hboot to cmr7 or data ++ (example) you MUST be s-off......

Thanks for tip, I've actually done alpharev and it also failed. Reason being it needs a rom that doesn't already have a2sd, any suggestion as to which rom is suitable?
Thanks
Edit: I've actually online done the hboot reflash, and not the downgrade. Will give that a go first and see what happens.

I think that all the rooted roms have some sort of a2sd, that's why I think you have to start from the beginning. Start with an original ruu.bring it back to its original state wich came out of the box...my knowledge doesn't reach that far ;-) its the easyest way I think.

Can you post your complete bootloader. Turn of phone, hold down volume and press power. What info does the left upper corner give you ?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

It is:
BRAVO UNKNOWN SHIP S-ON

MICROP-031D
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-4.05.00.11
MAR 5 2010,21:12:15

Still I think what's best is to go back all the way and install a ruu. Then go directly to revolutionary. It will root and s-off your phone and installs the custom hboot.
Maybe I have more time to help tonight, I am at work now :-(

That's what I'm thinking too, hence why I'm trying to flash an RUU onto the device. I however get this error when I do it
Error[140]: Bootloader version error
The ROM Update Utility cannot update your Android phone
Please get the correct ROM Update Utility and try again

I conclude that the downgrade did not work ?

It didn't and wouldn't cause my phone is still on S-On, I'm however dling some newer RUU so fingers crossed that helps.

Ah yes ofcourse. There is a stickie in the Q & A section here that has info and troubleshooting. Maybe point 3 and 4 can give you some more info !

Is it possible that your phone is branded by provider, in that case you have to create a goldcard first. I have no experience in this. Hopefully I am pointing you to the right direction.

Hey there, firstly I would like to thank you for ALL your help and of course the effort you've put in it.
I've actually fixed it by firstly going to page ~16 of the android development forum for the desire, get an old rom, flash it in and then performed the alpharev. Lo and behold it worked because the rom is reasonably old and a2sd was "new" then. Flashed it back to ICS now and I am proud to announced that I S-OFF'ED!!! Partition done and OFF I GO.

That's great !!!! Have fun with your fixed desire )))

@bjornzzz Any suggestion on which rom you flashed. I've arrived at this boot loader while going back to stock from alpharevx hboot / ics rom.
Flashing an Ruu before flashing the alpharev downgrade didn't help much. LOL

Dear aarun.....can u just give me also the link to the rom you are refferring to....and is it the stock Indian HTC sense rom? Coz. I tried a lot to get my hands on one and have been unsuccessful
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium

He already gave you the link, it's right there in the comment
Just go to recovery mode, then "mounts and storage", then from there choose the last option (can't remember the name, it was something like "USB storage"), then connect your phone to your PC and place the ROM onto it and flash it afterwards
EDIT: Or, if you want a custom Sense-based ROM, I'd highly recommend this one, though it can be tricky to install, if you don't follow the instructions to the letter.

the recovery option is not working as well..whenever i select the recovery option it just again shows me that annoying white screen with that htc logo..

Did you even install CWM? If you didn't, you're pretty screwed

and yes it is 2.3.5
the details as shown on the bootloader screen are as follows..

i m not sure about the CWM i mean i tried when the phone was working but dont knw that it was done successfully or not..
any other way??

I think you can try pushing a custom recovery (CWM) onto your phone using an app on your PC, though I can't remember which one (it was one of those apps that root your phone automatically, but I just don't know which one it was).
EDIT: I think it was this one.
EDIT 2: Also, try searching the index for a solution, especially the General Guides section.

Brother HTC Indian stock Rom nt available at d net.so try tat Europian stock Rom.it is similar to Indian stock Rom.

Hi guys, after using so many roms on my USA G2 I want to go back to the sense rom that came with the desire z (sense 2.1,). The main thing is using the main RUU method is not something I want to do cos I can loose root and S-Off, worst of all my radio could go back and my hboot f**ked up
Now the Qs
Can I extract the rom only and flash it in cwm leaving out radio and hboot part.
Also how easy will it be going back to root since I know the stock is not rooted and I have to do so.
And can I flash a kernel on top after rooting?
The ROM I want is desire z last gingerbread update sense 2.1
I don't wanna use those ginger sense roms here cos most have problems just want real stock ............. I have root with s-off desire z hboot and .19 radio on my g2.....any help......
Am on ma cell so the typing ain't good.......sorry

Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

If you flash as is you will
Extract system from the pc10img.zip, only flash that
Do not flash a pc10.img without knowing what's in it, you can easily brick your phone. In this case if you were to flash a shipped rom with the shipped hboot, radio, recovery etc, you would probably end up with a brick
Sent from my HTC Vision using xda premium

Flashing an RUU will change your hboot, radio and recovery.
If you used gfree and got true S-OFF it will not change that.
You could try flash this rom, it should be an untouched rom like you want, flashable in cwm
Otherwise I would recommend using Virtuous Sense which is based off stock with just some minor improvements.
