error up rom ship - Desire General

When I re up Rom ship, i see this error (attachment)
How to fix this error?
I download and flash rom RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed
Sr my English not good

thats for an unbranded phone
is yours branded? (or what version are you running at the moment? the x.x.405.x normally gives it away)

Create a goldcard:

Put this in your desire and then flash ruu again.

What was so? Which error appeared when you flashed the ruu witjlh goldcard in your desire?
Sent from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App

As stated above several times, that error is normally produced when trying to flash a stock ROM on an branded phone (without a goldcard).
To be on the safe side, create it again. By far the easiest method is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954723.
Simply create your goldcard, patch it to your memory card & run the RUU again.

The error i have posted on the post #1.

PB99IMG.zip that restores to WWE 2.2 (Froyo)?

Hey all,
I didn't know where to ask, so I'll try my luck here
I have a PB99IMG.zip that downgrade to 2.1 Android version and works great, but I would like one that will downgrade to a WWE 2.2 version.
It has to be PB99IMG.zip (rooted preferred, but isn't a must) because I need to use it if/when unavailable to get in recovery, and PB99IMG can be run from bootloader.
I tried downloading couple of WWEs and renaming them to PB99IMG.zip but it didn't work. Bootloader reads the file, but doesn't give me an option to install it.
Any suggestion?
Thanks.
You need to extract the ROM.zip from the RUU and rename it PB99IMG.zip

I tried extracting this RUU with 7zip but it failed... I guess I'm doing something wrong :/
I'm uploading it to shipped-roms at the moment, check back there later. File name is:
PB99IMG_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.2_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_151783_signed.zip
I must say that you rock.
So, after this RUU appears on the shipped-roms, I download it, rename it to PB99IMG.zip and put it on my SD?
Yep, just remove everything except the PB99IMG from the file name
I don't recommend using this ROM for that purpose. I just flashed 2.29.405.2 with my goldcard and now I am stuck with a phone which cannot be rooted by unrevoked.
looks like HTC has patched the ROM to stop unrevoked from working.
I also tried fake flash to see if I can restore back. but no luck there either.
if you want a Foyo 2.2 PB99IMG file, I recommend you use 2.10.405.2 instead.
I rooted my phone on 2.29.405.2 first time, as I have with any other verison. You're doing something wrong

Hmmm.. must be the stupid computer. it has been working slow.. I will try doing it on a different computer and see how I go.
I say it worked, I ended up with Amon RA on the phone and the SU apk in my app drawer
I say you are right EddyOS. I tried it again on a different computer and I was able to root it using unrevoked.
so my apologies!

Guys just to clear up my concepts whenever i need to unroot.... all i need tot do is to put in the latest RUU file in zip form as mentioned in the thread and i will be back to stock froyo rom unrooted and ready to receieve OTA.... when gingerbread sense UI comes out?
i have the SLCD desire that came with factory installed Froyo and HBOOT 0.93 or 0.92 whichever it was
The ZIP I posted needs to be renamed PB99IMG.zip and copied to the SD card and then the phone turned on whilst holding power down - once in HBOOT it will then ask do you want to update and away you go
It will ONLY work on unbranded phones (those on x.xx.405.x ROMs out the box) unless you use a gold card

Just wanted to add that the Rom.zip is extracted from RUU.exe by running the RUU and checking the Temp folder. A folder appears there with weird chars starting with { and rom.zip is within it.

[Q] Upgrading HBOOT from 0.75, AlphaRev failed?

I recently bought a Desire (A8183) and it came with HBOOT 0.75.0000 and I am trying to get S-OFF on it. I tried using AlphaRev and it came up with an error in step 3. How do I overcome this?
The phone still works fine.

1st: Wrong topic, you should post it in Q&A.
2nd: Have you flashed any custom ROM??? If so, thats why you cannot S-OFF it, try any near-to-stock, froyo rooted rom and then try again, this will do the trick

Oops, wrong subforum, didn't realise.
Yes I'm running a custom ROM I'll try a Froyo-based ROM and see if that helps.
It's a shame that Revolutionary doesn't support this version of HBOOT, is there any way of 'tricking' Revolutionary to S-OFF the 0.75 HBOOT?

Moving to Q&A
You can always update bootloader... if you have a goldcard then put the attached file in the root of your sd-card, and then boot into bootloader and wait for it do do it's thing.. when it prompts you select yes. This will update your bootloader to version 0.93.1002
You shouldn't lose any data, but do make a backup of the ROM in recovery in case you get a bootloop.
Then run Revolutionary.

I downloaded the file and put it on the root sdcard... Bootloader seemed to just skip over the file though.
Do I need to change the text file in the zip to my CID or anything else? It doesn't like it
you need a goldcard, so it ignores the CID.. or actually.. what network are you on?
EDIT: Just noticed lol
Wait I'm downloading a Telstra RUU and I'll give you a new PB99IMG
try this. If not, then you can always use the RUU to do a full update, and then S-OFF and flash a custom ROM.
Thanks I'll give it a try.
I have four microSD cards at home and I've tried gold carding all of them... I don't know how successful I was cos I couldn't do what I wanted on the Desire HD

try the goldcard tutorial I posted.
Okay, well I'm gonna get to sleep now but I'll give you some advice before you go.
If you can't update the bootloader with that, I'd suggest backing up your ROM (if you havent done so already), flashing the RUU to bring it up to the latest bootloader version, and then using revolutionary.
Once you've S-OFF'd with revo. Use android flasher to flash recovery (Note: your backup will not work if you do not flash the same version of recovery) and then do a full wipe and flash a ROM of your choice.
Would you happen to know where I can get the original Telstra RUU from? I think that might be my best bet.
Thanks for your help!

Thanks - this looks like it worked now HBOOT 0.93.0001, running revolutionary now.
Is there any benefit in upgrading HBOOT at all? What does 1.02.0001 offer?
Hboot 1.xxxx is the stock hboot for gingerbread. So it offers you nothing. By flashing a hboot like cm7 (most roms fit in this hboot), you get much more space for installing apps, because its /data partition is much bigger.

[Q] Won't boot after RUU flash from Revolutionary

I have been searching for two days and have not found a solution!
My CID is HTC__001
I did have Revolutionary installed (phone from eBay) but I decided to go to stock (thought I'd try it before the modding, need to install ICS for a project I'm working on) so I used "bravo_downgrade" (using Fastboot) and then used the latest RUU(RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00.32U_5.11.05.27_release_159811_signed) to flash it.
My current state is: S-ON, HBOOT-0.93.0001, RADIO-5.11.05.27
Phone won't boot, when flashed from SD it just reboot looped and now it just hangs on the HTC screen.
I have tried different ROMs and using an SD card OTA ZIP file numerous times.
Thanks!

Nope, restored using the extracted ZIP and same reboot loop. Thanks anyway.
EDIT: I didn't have a SIM installed while doing this, would that have affected it? Also, this is an AMOLED desire.
That more or less confirms a hardware issue.

Could I have caused it by flashing stuff? It worked (albeit with countless mods installed) when I recieved it from eBay.

[Q] Trying to return to Stock Rom but...

I seem to be having a problem flashing the stock + rooted rom.
I get the error message..
e:cant open sdcard/dhd_wwe_3.12.405.1............zip (bad) installation aborted.
I have also tried a stock unrooted copy which didnt work either. I am pretty sure i use to be able to flash it(many months ago).
I believe i can still flash sum custom roms (just formated the newest leedroid rom) but stock is being a ***** to install.
I want to go back to stock as I feel my gps was more accurate under stock
Any ideas?
Im using a unbranded UK desire HD with AHK Clockwork Recovery v4.0.1.4. i did wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and even wipe Dalvik
Any questions just ask
You don't have to flash stock rom from recovery like custom roms or nandroid backups.
Run stock RUU.exe or flash the rom from bootloader if in PG58IMG format if you want to go back to complete stock rom.
You can download RUU_Ace_Sense30_S_HTC_WWE_3.12.405.1_R_Radio_12.65.60.29_26.14.04.28_M_release_233505_signed form HERE

Hey mate, maybe u can help me out a little. I need to flash back to stock, vodafone au branded for warrenty purposes. if I used above would I still be rooted and s-off, and can all the Vodafone bloat be flashed afterwards. just weighing if the above link is any easy option then flashing rom, then radio, reverse s off, root, etc etc etc.....etc.?
The link I gave is for stock unbranded WWE (world wide english) RUU. No idea where you can find Vodafone AU, sorry.
Running the RUU.exe will unroot your device but s-off remains. Also it deletes all apps and data.
Conclusion: it will be as out of the box but S-Off.

--I noticed your using advanced ace hack kit. Question- are you renaming the Rom file to "update.zip," and then selecting "install update from zip"???
If so, there s your problem.
Just select "install from zip" instead. Shouldn't matter if the file has been renamed.
Hopefully this is a quick fix for you. Let us know, because if you can get to bootloader and recovery, there is a fix.

2) What your bootloader says and what version is is (there is a **locked** on top?)
3) have you tried the hack kit or not?
4) do you have stock recovery or CWM/4EXT?
5) is your phone branded Vodafone or is just your carrier which is Vodafone?
6) what was your original RUU and what RUU did you find. RUU.exe should be run from a computer not flashed by recovery.

5- Vodafone branded phone originally, with all the crap
6-original ruu unknown? But the rom I can't install is titled:
Ace_Vodafone_AU_1.32.178.5_Radio_12.28b.60.140eU_26.03.02.26_M_BACKUP
Its a zip file which I've tried to install from recovery as a zip(error message 'install aborted')and also restore after extracting to cwm/backup (error message md5 mismatch)
I'm completely lost.
Install 4ext recovery, if I'm not mistaken it has an option to ignore md5 mismatches.

Alright, well I installed 4ext, disabled md5 check. All that happened when it restored (finished in only 3secs)was rebooted with a freshly wiped copy of the rom I've been using-cookies & cream ics.
It seems like the file is empty, though I've explored its content and all seems intact. Its about the 5th download of the rom too, so unlikely a bad dl. Someone installed it successfully by deleting nandroid. md5, then using the md5 sum recreate it as md5sum*img > nandroid.md5... Don't know how or what this means
I believe they are talking about this. In the app go to recovery >manage backups. Choose the file then click correct md5 sum

Wondering if I could insall the WWE Ruu.exe and then temp root and somehow flash all the vodafone australia crap...I'm just swinging in the dark here.
I thought about that. You won't be able to fully be on your stock firmware but it might be close enough for warranty purposes.
So here is my thinking. Flash the 1.32.405 ruu. Next flash your stock radio that came with your carrier via a pd98. Then root with visionary and use jkoljos easy radio tool to flash back your cid and get back son. Finally unroot with visionary and remove any traces of root like super user. I think that's as close as well be able to get if the nandroid doesn't work

Bricked htc one m9 (urgent help!!)

Hi guys. I just bricked my HTC one m9. I was trying to get it back to stock while I had a custom rom, and I set s-on back to true and locked the bootloader..
Fastboot DOES work.
I cannot enter the custom recovery mode, it says that it failed to boot to recovery.
I cannot boot into my custom rom.
I DO have an SD card. I tried to flash the RUU "0PJAIMG.zip", but it said "failed to flash downloadzip" and didn't flash..
What should I do at this point? I don't want $700 down the drain
1) What is your CID?
2) you flash RUU via SDcard?
3) If you ever got your phone back to normal. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TURN S-OFF BACK TO TRUE, AND LOCKED YOUR BOOTLOADER. BECAUSE ITS NOT NEEDED AT ALL.
I tried to flash an RUU via SD card, but it gave me that error posted above.

If you're using the SD Card method it doesn't matter at all whether your bootloader is locked or not. And as long as the RUU is the same version as your actual firmware (or if the RUU is newer) it doesn't matter whether your phone is S-ON or S-OFF.
The SD card has to be formated to fat32 and mustn't be bigger than 32gb. Copy the RUU to the main directory of the card and rename it to "0PJAIMG.zip" (that's a zero not an O). If you then put the card back into your phone and reboot to download mode you just have to follow the instructions on the phone's screen.
Let's say I were to flash the wrong firmware version RUU (which I did, and the installation failed), would it say something like "failed to flash zip downloadzip", because that's what it said.

Which method did you use? If you used the SD Card method: Are file extensions visible on your pc? If not the file may be named "0PJAIMG.zip.zip" now...
I used the SD card method, but the firmware version was wrong. I just want to know if it would stop me with an error, instead of actually installing the RUU.

Since you're S-ON you can't harm your phone with a "wrong" RUU. If it's incompatible it simply won't flash.
Edit with some alternative solutions: There is a RUU.exe for your specific firmware on ir-file. But you need to pay if you want to download there. (At least if there is no xda member who already has an account and is willing to help.) Or you try this RUU Service. But that one isn't for free, either.

Ohh my, locked and Son...May the force be with you...always.
I do believe the only option would be to download a Ruu-EXE from HTC Developers and run it from PC, also phone must connected in download mode or recovery, hopefully you do it for good.................
OR.....................................MAKE USE OF THE UH-OH GUARANTEE, step the phone under the water for 20 mins or crush the screen and take it to your vendor, they should replace phone with no questions for one completly new as guarantee states!!!!!
In Mexico, Telcel they do Honor this special guarantee

I could be wrong but I would say it should work. I don't see a reason why it shouldn't.

If you met all the conditions listed by @Flippy498 in post #11 it will work just fine
