[Answered] Help with my Frankenstein Froyo? 3.26.651.6 RUU now found!

Here is the RUU for 3.26.651.6
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=A9AI5RM9
Ok, I have had my Evo for a while and have had it rooted with NAND unlocked and eng bootloader running cyanogenmod nightly builds. That is until yesterday when I got all willy nilly about trying to go to the stock froyo ota.
So this is a description of my willy nilly as far as I remember.
I figured I had to downgrade to 651.1 so that I could apply the incremental update so I followed an unroot back to stock tutorial and reflashed with this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715915
But when I tried to get the update and apply it, it failed on signature.
So I tried to follow this guide. So now I am trying to downgrade with RUU method and HTC sync.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743192
This keeps on failing even after several tries but eventually I boot back up to the rom (651.1) and the signature works and I get upgraded to 2.2!
Yay, so now I am at 2.2 with a different (locked) bootloader that comes with this OTA update. I also have stock recovery and no root now. But I also have SU app that I cant remove and some stuff just gets wonky. Like when I try to update google maps, the phone just reboots.
So what do I want?
I want some signed way of just loading the full update 651.6 without root and using the stock recovery. Or maybe an RUU file for this update that will just get me to stock froyo, no SU app none of it.
See the rom I upgraded from probably was modified more than I thought it was and thats why I am having issues.

How to upgrade to 2.2 from rooted 2.1

Right now I am running stock everything just unrevoked rooted on 2.1
Basically I want to upgrade to stock 2.2 and I'll go from there as far as what rom I will actually use this time around -etc-.
But I kind of want to start off fresh just contacts, pics and rooted 2.2
From my understanding I cant just upgrade via the pop up on the phone to 2.2 can i?
Thanks

Yes, you can. So long as you didn't modify the essential programs. You'll lose root, but can gain it back with unrevoked.

If he currently has a custom recovery I think he will fail to do the OTA update. I know that you must have the stock recovery in order to go this method.
You could always just use the RUU program then run unrevoked 3.21 to gain root again. This will how ever erase everything you have the phone except for the SD card.

Yes the ota update didnt work.
Clockwork tells me
E: Failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation Aborted

You're going to have to use the RUU program or extract the rom.zip file from the RUU program to restore your phone. You can either RUU your phone back to stock 2.1 or you can just go 2.2. I would recommend going the 2.2 method as it saves you the hassle of waiting for the phone to download the OTA.
You should be able to find instructions on how to use the RUU throughout the forum or this section even. Just use the search button .
*most people including my self was unable to use the RUU program due to driver conflicts. The only way a lot of use was able to use the RUU was to extract the rom.zip file and then rename it to PB31IMG.zip and flash it via Hboot.*
Again do a search and you should find instructions.
Side note: Be careful during the hboot update process. It will either send you to recovery or to fastboot. If you get sent to fastboot just select "bootloader" and hit the power button. This will put you back into hboot and the update will continue on its own.
If sent to recovery just select reboot phone and then hold volume down right afterwords to make sure you get into hboot again.
Caution: Never pull the battery during hboot or radio flashing as you will be very sorry and have a nice paper weight to remind you to never do this again.

i would restore the phone to stock rom and then flash 2.2

I agree. My bad. I forgot about the OTA being incompatible with Clockwork. It's been a minute since I've been to stock.

The 2.2 RUU is now the Stock Rom that comes with the phone. The only issue I see flashing the 2.2 RUU would be if he had upgraded his radio beyond what the RUU would have done.

Also technically yes you will void your warranty by using the RUU as it wont be considered an official update according to your carrier. Only OTA's are considered official.
Then again you already voided your warranty when you rooted the phone so it shouldn't really matter.

When I boot up it gets past the HTC quietly brilliant goes to the droid eye then after the 2 red balls go back and forth the second time the phone just sits and freezes there. what did I do wrong?

so i managed to get booted, but I boot and it shows me as having no service and plenty of my programs just freeze up and pop up saying force close or wait

Interesting. Where exactly did you get the ruu files? Also did you do anything while rooted with 2.1 like load custom rom's that could have required you to change anything beyond just flashing the rom?
I've never gone past stock when I was rooted but in one of my earlier threads when I joined this forum I decided to go back to unrooted as I needed my phone to work and didn't want to run the risk of it dieing on me due to a stupid mistake. *It's currently my only phone*
I've flashed the 2.2 ruu file twice now and had no issues what so ever.
Also did you pull your battery while waiting for the phone to boot up for the first time after flashing the RUU? If you did then this might explain why as the first boot always takes the longest as it's building caches I think and possibly doing settings and so forth.

New Ota Update

Hi guys
At the moment i've recieved an update which says the version code is: ota_btavo_htc_eu_2.10.405.2-2.09.405.8_release567cypyi0feo4th5.zip
My current version is froyo 2.2 now, should i let my phone to upgrade this update, or will it downgrade my phone?
My phone is also rooted, is there a problem about this?

Don't use it as it will mess the phone up...

So i think my guess is right, this update is for version 2.1 right?

No, it's the 2nd 2.2 patch...it updates 2.09.405.2 to 2.10.405.2
You just can't install it as you're rooted

Eddy, I'm quoting your post on the other thread for clarification..
If this is an OTA, why cant he update it via Recovery? Would it still mess up the system?

It CAN mess it up, it's never a good idea to flash a stock update on a rooted phone...read other posts (not just mine ) and you'll see other people say this

Understood..

I'm little bit confused right now, sorry for being a rookie but can you explain this a little : "You'll need to turn off signature checking in your Recovery and then flash the update.zip as you would any other OTA but yes it should go through"
What should i do now, unroot? if so how, or what's this update's benefit, if its not so necessary i can pass it..
thanks by the way

Easiest way - find a custom ROM based on that ROM version. Most Sense-based ROMs should be on it by now
Other option is to unroot using the 2.10.405.2 RUU, or the 2.29.405.2 RUU. Then root again should you want to but if you're just going to put a custom ROM back on then there's no point

(q) DHD OTA update 2.2 to 2.3

Hello there, I have DHD 2.2 stock HTC in with root. My phone is radio s-off and installed custom recovery.
Today I recived OTA update 2.3, I was told that having root phone prevent OTA update. However, I have it now and I don't know if I have to update or not.
Will I lose the root, s-off and custom recovery if I update?
Will I be able to root again and install custom recovery?

Having root prevents you from actually installing the Ota's. Since your stock rooted the phone will still notify you of updates(unless the Dev desables it). So if you would try to install it it would t work and most likely you'll get stuck screen with the exclamation point I believe.
If you want to update you will need to ruu up to 2.3, then you can reroot with gingerbreak. This method will erase everything so make sure to backup
Here's the link to the 2.3 ruu that you run from your computer. Thanks goes to andyharney for the link.

Thanx for explanation, but I believes using RUU will return the phone s-on and remove the custom recovery. Is this correct?

The ruu will keep you s-off. It will delete the recovery but after you root using gingerbreak, you can reinstall it through rom manager
Sent from my TARDIS using XDA App

Hi! I might jump into this thread because I have exactly the same situation (except I am not running a custom recovery) but I have a big issue.
The micro usb port on my DHD does not work anymore. I've put off getting it repaired as I have 4 spare batteries and 2 chargers, so I've been able to get by.
Can I still RUU, then Gingerbreak without using the micro usb port?
Cheers!
One other thing - I have the Australian DHD - I did not see a listing for an Australian RUU - Would I need to go find one or could I potentially use a WWE?

What about un-root my 2.2 using visonary then install 2.3 with OTA after that root it with gengerbrake? Is this good plan? Will this remove recovery and s-off?

@RaindancerAU:
Well, RUU needs the USB port. You could try copying a .zip file to the root of your sdcard, then go into Bootloader and update it through there.
(You can get the .zip file from the RUU by opening the RUU.exe file and press 'Next' untill you reach the 'Checking device' - or something like that - part. Then just press - 'Windows key + r' - type %temp% and search the folders for a .zip file called ROM.)
As for you other question. If your phone is branded to a specific carrier, then using the carrier-specific RUU is recommended. If your phone isnt branded, ... , WWE is fine!

Gingerbreak requires S-OFF. By OTA'ing' S-OFF will still remain, but recovery will be replaced with the originnal HTC recovery.
So if you had S-OFF before updating, then Gingerbreak will work, hopefully

I have a similar scenario.
my phone came with 2.2 and I used the advanced ace hack kit and it successfully rooted, s-off'ed and have the ace hack kit recovery.
When I checked for updates, I was surprised it did prompt me for the OTA 2.3 update.
I am tempted to install it but I am not sure if it will unroot my phone and remove the recovery and if it does, then how do I get it rooted again and have rom manager recovery?
I am with Three Australia and I was hoping someone else had done this before and would like to share their experience with us.

Since your rooted the Ota's will fail to Install. If you want to stay stock I would just flash a prerooted version.
Personally though you should give custom roms a try and enter the fun

I have used an Ice Cold Sandwich custom rom and I loved it on my old DHD but this new one which I got as a replacement came with Froyo and for some odd reason, the WiFi is not working correctly. It connects but nothing get sent or received. I'm not quite sure if its the aahk that caused or it was an issue since I got it as I don't recall using WiFi on it before running aahk on it.
So I was hoping I could install this ota and check if it gets fixed, otherwise I will take it back to 3 so they can have a look and it would look like I have done nothing to it.
Hope this makes sense.
I'm really worried about applying this ota. I have taken a backup but would I get the chance to restore it if the ota update fail to install as you are saying?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

You could restore, but the Ota's wont install at all. You'll get stuck on the screen with an exclamation point,and you'll need to pull the battery to reboot the phone.
What you could do is flash an ruu/pd98img of the stock rom to check the wifi issue. This way will get rid of root and cwr but its easily reattainable

I would not lose anything if I attempt it and fail? Just pull the battery out and I am back in business?
I will update to the latest ruu (Hutch AUS 3.12.861.2 PD9810000) from htc dev page but this will unroot the phone and remove cwr and put htc recovery. And then you want me to run the OTA update?
Just curious how easy it will be to root it and install cwr after I apply the ruu above.

First two questions correct. But their is really no point in attempting it unless out pure curiosity to see if fail.
If you flash the ruu, no need to apply the Ota's as the ruu is probably The Ota's its asking you to install.
Because you will still be soff even after the ruu, you could just install cwr via a pd98img. Then install a rom or backup. And even if you were son the hack kit would still be able to root your phone

I was as curious as a cat and you were spot on. It did fail.
The RUU I was referring to was from the htcdev page which is only 5.9MB and it's mainly to update hboot.
What I ended up doing last night was to apply this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=843998 and the OTA still failed.
I guess it failed and when I checked, I still had cwr and hence why it failed.
I checked to see if I still had root and it was not. I was able to install superuser and this was all I needed to get root again. I did not think it was this easy.
I then ended up applying IceColdSandwich 4.0.0 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450962
I am going tonight to apply 4.1.1 which only got released today.
I have a question about pd98img. what things can I install using this method? Can I packages apk files and name the file this and it will auto install when I hboot?

Pd98imgs are used to flash a radio, a recovery, and a bootsplash(image before you see the bootanimation)
You can have zips that install apps for you. Those are flashed in recovery. I know icecoldsandwich has a overlay script to do that aswell when flashing that rom. You would just have to place your apks in the specified folder.(I believe its data/app/apks)

[Q] ???Gingerbread 4.06.605.3 RUU from official OTA

Those of us that downloaded the leaked GB 4.06.605.2 CAN NOT use the OTA. It will not flash, we need a RUU. Please help. Any Devs out there, I'm more than willing to donate for your time to get this out.

Could that be why I haven't gotten the 605.3 update notification yet? Still on 605.2 waiting for it.

If no one is willing I can make an RUU for this message me if the demand is there. Will not make for one person.

Just search the forum, there are custom roms of .3 if your rooted and offical VZW .2 to .3 update files if your stock.
Edit: here ya go official vzw ota .2 to .3 patch. Just download rename update.zip and place on root of sd card. Shut off the phone and pull the battery then reinsert. Boot into hboot by holding vol down and power at the same time. It will find the file and run the update. Note you must be compleet stock .2 for this to work including stock recovery and all the bloatware still installed.

I've seen at least two others here post this same problem on xda and several other Incredible forums. Problem is everyone seems to assume that the RUU exists.

Yep, according to VZW

Not true i went from the leaked .2 to .3 using the ota update i posted above. So i know its possible.
Are you guys compleet stock .2 meaning everything stock besides having s-off. You have to have stock recovery and all bloatware still installed for the update patch to work. If your deodexed have installed battery or other mods or removed system apps the update wont work.

OK, one more time. I downloaded the leaked RUU, S-on, no root, nothing. Then tried to use the OTA I downloaded from an XDA post. Didn't work. Was told to do a device wipe factory reset. Did that and the OTA still didn't work. I found your patch, downloaded, put on root of sd card and titled update.zip pulled battery, held down vol button and nothing happened except saying no PB31IMG.zip so I chose recovery. Phone rebooted into recovery, green arrow and circle, then it goes to the red triangle arrow. Nothing, nothing, nothing, so I reboot. Please tell me what I could have done differently.

Ahh sweet success!!

Here is what I had to do. Downloaded the (.2) leaked RUU, put in SD card root dir, and named PB31IMG.zip then downloaded your patch, renamed update and put in SD card root dir. Battery pull into bootloader, when asked to complete upgrade hit yes, when upgrade done, DO NOT reboot, go back to bootloader and the update will start. You'll be greeted with a screen saying you've successfully upgraded to (.3)

Are you rooted? You must be rooted to downgrade. You can upgrade without being rooted but only if it is stock OTA.

No there was an official ota patcher sent out by verizon to the people who got the .2 ota before they pulled it. It is not a full rom just a patch to go from .2 to .3. Since it is from and signed by verizon people with s-on on .2 should still be able to upgrade with it, i did with no issues.

For all you people on .2 who cant get to .3 im not sure what the issue is. I went from the leaked .2 to .3 with the exact file i posted earlier named update.zip on the root of my sd thru hboot. Went thru the first time with out a single issue. Now i was s-off when i did it but i have given these instructions to others who were s-on and they have reported it worked for them too. The only other thing i can think of that might be an issue is your hboot version. I am on hboot 0.92, mabey it dosent work on older or newer hboot versions. Just a guess, either way if that is the issue there is nothing you can do about it with s-on. You are stuck at .2 untill someone comes up with a way to root gingerbread, or vzw pushes an even newer update. You could try to use z4root from the market to see if you can get temporary root and if you can edit build.prop to make it seem as though your on froyo 2.1 to the update servers. It should then prompt you to download the newest ota ie .3 and hopefully that would install and work.
