[Q] HELP! PB99IMG problem..CID incorrect - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Here's the thing...
I manage to update the bravo_alphaspl-cm7.img through fastboot..but when bootloader wants to update the PB99IMG_bravo_cm7 it says CID Incorrect..
the PB99IMG have been renamed to PB99IMG_bravo (as the alpharev site says) same with the bravo_alphaspl-cm7.img to bravo_alphaspl.img
I put the PB99IMG_bravo at root of the sdcard (is it wrong???)
thank god I can still turn my phone on...
anyone can help me??thanks XDA~

You need to create a "Gold Card" on your SD.
Usually, this fixes most issues. It's looking for a signature.
But, what do I know....... Could be wrong....

gold card???owhh no....i ll give it a try later...thnx

If you go through the SD card way, you need a goldcard. Your best off goin through fastboot since you don't need to have a goldcard and to be honest, it only takes a matter of seconds anyway.

Meaple...what do u mean by fastboot?when i flash the 'bravo_alphaspl-cm7.img', I did use the fastboot as alpharev says in it site...n the 'PB99IMG_bravo_cm7' also put in the sdcard...the way I'm using is the way that alpharev says...

Help! PB99IMG.zip not loading

Hi guys,
I have a problem where I am trying to flash a rom by placing PB99IMG.zip in the root of my SD card and booting into HBOOT.
HBOOT checks for all the standard files but skips the PB99IMG.zip I loaded as if it wasn't there.
Does anyone know why this could be happening?
I tried different zips, ones I downloaded directly from shipped roms and another one I extracted from an RUU. None of them seem to be recognized, they all get ignored.
Which RUU did you get the ZIP from? And have you called it PB99IMG.zip (not .zip.zip)?
The SD card ur using is it a goldcard
The Best Things Come To Those Who Wait
I tried these ones:
RUU_Bravo_Telstra_WWE_1.15.841.14_R4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_123851.exe
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_Telstra_WWE_2.26.841.2_Radio_32.48.00.32U_5.11.05.14_release_150162_signed.exe
The later one was downloaded straight from the HTC website, after inserting my IMEI number so it's official.
I also tried to make a gold card but it still didn't work. I am also rooted so I shouldn't need a goldcard anyway?
Does the HBOOT on the phone (currently 0.93) have to be the same version as the HBOOT that the zip is expecting?
Found this somewhere else, xda is being funny at my end else i'd reference it properly and give credit where its due.
You can extract the ROM.zip from any RUU to install via ZIP
Start the RUU and once at the first main screen click Start>Run and type
%temp%
now, find the newest folder and in there will be a ZIP file called Rom - copy this to your desktop and rename it PB99IMG. Now copy this to your SD card and start the phone in HBOOT (turn it on whilst holding volume down). It will find the file and start the update. Just follow the instructions...
It will wipe your phone, though

Hello Yoda,
What you describe is exactly what I did. I renamed the rom.zip file I found in the temp folder to PB99IMG.zip (not ...zip.zip).
I booted into HBOOT but the file just gets ignored. I also installed alpharev custom HBOOT to see if S-OFF would make any difference. It still gets ignored!!
Can anyone help?
If not, is there any way to downgrade HBOOT (say from 0.93 to 0.92) without using PB99IMG.zip?
I had same problem with HBOOT 0.93
You need to downgrade to stock Hboot.
I used this tool :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=768256
Follow the instructions ( my phone was not branded , worked for me without a gold card ) , downgrade , after that unrevoked3 , alpharev = S-off Desire
Hi aditirex,
I tried tool you mentioned. I ran the linux version. Everything looked promising, I got no errors but the downgrade didn't happen. I still have HBOOT 0.93 when I rebooted.
Does anyone else know any ways to downgrade HBOOT without using PG99IMG.zip?
(I even tried to format with FAT32 using a card reader, and then the goldcard tool - still nothing)
Anyone? Please?
I really need to get this done to claim my warranty.
I read in another post that you can flash HBOOT using the android SDK:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
But I'm guessing this is an image saved by a nandroid backup.
Does anyone know if I can obtain the img file from PB99IMG.zip?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695667 . Use one that is not froyo . It should revert the phone to default settings .

[Q] i couldn't upgrade my hboot to 1.01.0001 from 0.08x

i tried to use the given RUU to change my hboot to 1.01.0001 from 0.08x.but i couldn't.already i had rooted my phone using unrevoked but still its S-ON.i want it S-OFF anyhow.plzz reply me what should i do...
Try making gold card.
Even if it doesn't, extract the rom.zip from temporary folders and put it on root of sdcard (fat32). Then rename it to PC49IMG.ZIP
then reboot to hboot menu from where you can update it. Here also with working gold card.

HELP PLZ
I also have the same problem and cannot get the solution anywhere. I downloaded the froyo RUU but whenever I try to install it, it always says "check your usb connection". Please help.
Using your PC click start then type %temp% this is your temporary folder in windows,keep an eye on it when you run the ruu as some folders will appear, search those folders for rom.zip then rename that to PC49IMG Copy it to your SD card and reboot into hboot, it should pick up the file and ask if you want to update. It doesn't change the hboot version on mine when I run it though, don't know if this is because I'm already on 6.01.1002 with s.off or not?
EDIT: Just figured out its because the RUU i have is safe and doesn't have Radio or HBoot.

[Q] Help with SD problems

So Ive been having problems with my SD card as posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16689682&postcount=286, and my question is, can someone explain to me how to flash back to stock without the use of my SD card ? Or am I screwed ? Thanks.
What you can do is download the RUU exe for the hboot you are on, if 2.10, its the 3.70, if 3.16, its 4.24 [the new ota], then connect the phone to the pc via usb, boot into the bootloader, select fastboot, then run the exe on the pc.
Thanks for the reply, and sorry for the noob question but how do you determine what hboot you are on ? Cause if I boot to the white Revolutionary screen (volume down + power) the third line down says "HBOOT-6.16.1002", is this right ?
----------
*EDIT*
Also dont know if this will help but when I am in recovery, if I try to mount my SD card it says "E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (I/O error)"
Well I don't know if it was changed, but since you were on 2.3.3, you had to be on the 2.16, so for ruu purposes, look for that.
Alright, got stock back on. Thanks a lot.
I didn't know which one to use so I decided that since I have only had my evo for less than a month then I would use the latest version and it seems to have worked. So again, thanks a lot.
Okay, so I guess that I have a hardware problem and I will have to have it replaced. While my phone was just sitting there a notification came up that said "SD card unexpectedly removed"
Do I have to change the phone back to S-On before I get it replaced or can I keep it S-Off ?
Glad that you got it working, and you need to be s-on.
If you're s-off, re-root, then download the unrevoked s-on tool, flash the zip in recovery, make sure the bootloader reads s-on, the unroot again.
okay, so when I try to use the unrevoked s-on tool it fails and says unsupported radio type. any fix for this ?

try the 3.70 radio
You need to go to the development thread, then download the 2.1...11.19 radio and flash that.
Thanks for all the help guys. I've ran into another problem now. Before this new problem, if I wanted to put a new file on my SD card I had to flash to stock which gave me a 30-45 second window to mount the card to my pc and copy any files I needed to and power off before it unmounted it. Then I had to reboot, run revolutionary and get a recovery before it unmounted. Then I could flash a zip from my SD. BUT NOW, even if I reflash stock, it auto unmounts the SD at bootup.
Frustrated but still trying to problem solve.... Will update if anything changes.
Okay. I think I got it fixed now. After spending all day trying and flashing my phone at least 12-15 times it seems to be doing okay.
Solution : New SD card
Thanks for your help everyone !

SOLVED Desire HD bricked??? ... while downgrade... hboot dont start,

Hi, yesterday night i try to downgrade my DHD, with aahk-13012012, but I can`t. Then I go to options menu, and select install clockworldmod, with device non rooted, and not s-off ( My DHD still with Orange stock rom 2.3.5 and sense 3).
I boot in recovery mode, and flash IceColdSandwich-7.4. desire hd AOKP-signed.zip
The instalation finished well, but I only can boot device i Hboot.
I select factory reset option in hboot.
Then I can`t start android, I can`t start Hboot.
When I start DHD still white screen with green HTC logo
I dont know what can I do without Hboot.
AAHK don't recognice my DHD, appear:
***ERROR ERROR ERROR***

OR
Driver not installed
OR
USB Debugging not enabled.
***ERROR ERROR ERROR***
Phone is plugged, I uninstall all htc drivers and reinstall aahk htc windrivers, but I cant enable USB debugging because I can`t start android.
What can I do with my Desire hd?
thanks for all in advance, and sorry for my english
First off before you continue, STOP. Good news it is fixable, bad news that goes beyond my knowledge. Don't try anything else until you find the correct thread with the same problem, or someone else points you in the right direction.
After I have some lunch and do a few things I'll see if I find what you need or someone else comes in before that.
Apparently I'm in a good mood today
Sent from a dream.
Hold down volume up and power button to boot into HBoot, from there you will need to install CWM and you'll be able to have a custom ROM. You will need SOFF and root access

Are u able to boot in hboot?....if so, just let me know and I will lend u a hand..
hboot run
ok, now I know that my vol- button is damaged, I need to push vey hart to enter in hboot.
Please help, I read the entire manual, I understand that must do downgrade because Im not sOFF and Im not root.
I put the PM98IMG.zip in the main directory of SD and run bootloader, but nothing happen, bootloader dont find image.
I format SD in FAT32 and try
SD checking Loadinf.... PD98DIAG.zip
No image
Loading PD98DIAG..nbh
No image or wrong image
Loadinf PD98IMG.zip
and after a minute it continue with...
Wrong zipped image!
Loading PD98DIAG.nbh
No image or wrong image
what can i do?
You'll need to flash a RUU before continue with rooting and downgrade.
Quote from another post:
jchuillier said:
Ok, got it running
So here's the procedure in case someone else has the same problem.
1) Find the RUU you need to go back to what you had before, in my case it was the 3.17 asia
2) Get the rom.zip from this file : start install and when it tells you that it is not possible go to your my documents/user/local files/temp folder, sort the folders by DATE so that you have the latest used on top and open it, in this folder there will be the rom.zip file
3) Rename this rom.zip file to PD98IMG.zip, send it to the root of the SD (best way is to get the SD out of the phone and do it from the computer)
4) Launch the phone in recovery (power and then hold VOL DOWN) the phone will ALWAYS try to check PD98IMG.zip and if it checks it will ask you if you want to install it, just say yes (for me it took all night)
5) when you're back to your latest rom, you can use the aahk, for me I had to run it 2 times but in the end it it S-OFF and then install whatever rom you want.
Thanks to everybody who has helped me on this

If You are not s-off and still in warraty, then You can flash the Ruu in fastboot. Get me the Cid number and i will try to find a working ruu
understanding the trouble and solving!!
Ok, I think you're right, I've been looking for what the CID of Orange Spain
CID Orange Spain -> ORANG309
I will try to find some RRU with this CID
When I can download the RUU
1 install to fet rom.zip
2 rename rom.zip to PD98IMG.zip
3 Format SD to FAT32 put PD98IMG.zip in SD
4 Start bootloader to install
Thats right?
A thousand of thanks everybody for help!
EDIT. I search RUU for orange spain, but cant find anyone, everybody write that dont exist. I found an orange spain backup for recovery, I think that must have the same CID.
I try to download and restore with recovery mode.

ok, there's no RUU for Orange Spain, so I guess you will have to use an unbranded ruu....if your volume rocker is broken and u still are S-ON why don't u take it to service? you might mess it a bit more trying to get it working...
of curse, but Its a 2nd hand phone with original box, headpones, charger, etc, I buy trought ebay and the seller dont give me the bill of sale Im trying to send mail,but he doesn`t answer my mails...
I download unbranded RUU, and rename PD98IMG.zip.
I put PD98IMG.zip in SD, and run Bootloader
Bootloader install PD98IMG.zip correctly but phone continue with white screen and green htc.
I try to restore from recovery an orange spain backup made by zhecloud from htcmania.
Revocery restore the files, but the phone continue with white screen and green htc.
I try to istall wwe RUU, and the program detect the phone, but can`t update it, say that search an RUU version compatible.

In my sig you will find the 2.3 RUU for the Desire. Download it, then put the PB99IMG.zip on the root of your sd-card (Like, not in a folder). Then boot in hboot, and select yes. Your phone should be stock.
Make sure you have stock hboot.

First, from recovery, do a backup, just in case. You know how to do that right? (Enter recovery, select backup, wait)
Just to make sure, download the PB99IMG downgrade from here:
http://alpharev.nl/ (It's the last one in the table)
If you have an sd-card reader:
Put it on your sd-card, then boot in hboot, then select "Yes".
After that, delete the PB99IMG.zip from your sd-card , put the RUU PB99IMG.zip (I know, it's confusing, but stay with me), boot in hboot, then select yes again.
In case you don't have a card reader, then you will have to flash the downgrade through fastboot. Check my sig how to set it up. In this case, extract the .img from the downgrade pb99img zip, open cmd, connect your phone in fastboot, open CMD, and type "fastboot flash hboot <img path>". And then put the RUU PB99IMG.zip on your sd-card, boot in hboot, and select yes.
Recovery opens in clockwork mode, does that make any difference?
And don't i need to wipe data and cache? Just make backup, instal that downgrade and then instal that RUU and that's all?

Clockworkmode works. Just backup.
I explained everything like for a newbie, like you said in the title
Yeah,, that's all you need to do.
As you said, that's really confusing. Ok, thanks, i'm trying to make it now..
Boot in hboot and select yes, but there are no yes to select when i enter hboot it just says:
FASTBOOT
RECOVERY
CLEAR STORAGE
SIMLOCK
Maybe i just i need to install that downgrade zip file from SD card in clockwrokmod recovery?
Sorry
Are you sure you have the PB99IMG.zip (renane it if it's not called that way) on the root of the sd-card?
Well, yes..
Weird. Then flash it through fastboot.
And after all that if it will works my phone will be unrooted? And android will stay in the same version or not?
You will be unrooted, but then you can very easily root using revolutionary.
You will have android 2.3.3
When i enter hboot and when it reads zip file on sd card it writes that there are no img file or smth
hope you still have patience for me
Thats the message telling you that it didn't find any pb99img.zip on the root of the sd-card.
Again, are you sure that you put the exactly named "pb99img.zip" outside any folder on your sd, and that you have the correct one?
that is weird.. Well yes, name is exatly like yours and i just pick that zip file on my sd card not in any folder on sd
on boot it says:
SD checking...
Loading...[PB99DIAG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PB99DIAG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.zip]
No image!
Loading...[PB99IMG.nbh]
No image or wrong image!
i took my other sd card, formated it and now it works, so i'm going to instal it, hope it will be fine...
download this file attached (downgrade.img) and put it on ur sdcard (not in a folder) boot into bootloader, volume down + power then bootloader will find PB99IMG and ask u to update, volume up for yes. then just follow abaaaabbbb63 instructions or what ever it is ur trying to do.
