I tried to flash 'RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_122704.exe'
but it couldn't find the phone... says 'make sure usb cable connected'
am using unbranded phone.

Can't you get into recovery at all? (Assuming you used unrevoked you should be able to).
Then I'd do a full wipe/reflash from there.

I full wiped and reflashed at least 3 times, but that didn't fix the broken root
i want someone to help me find the right RUU for my phone

try this one:
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.09.405.8_Radio_32.43.00.32U_5.09.00.20_release_140022_signed.exe
you need a froyo.

1) Please post in the correct section first [Q&A, not DEV]
2) There's a selection of pre-rooted stock roms available via SEARCH at the top
3) Flash via renaming to update.zip and sticking on the root of your SD card
3a) If fails, name it pb99img.zip and do it via voldown+power

How you lost root rights and delete this directory? I think to you need Froyo release RUU

I think while trying to run .sh script that copy Hebrew/Arabic support files to system.

I can't find a working RUU
is it ok to use
RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.10.405.2_R_Radio_32.44.00.32U_5.09.05.30_2_release_142828_signed.exe
or does it contain 0.93 HBoot?

hakuna matata... problem solved
The RUU can't find the Device without HTC Sync, and it must be the latest version.
thank you very much for every one tried to help.

Odin path enigma in Window 7 64 bit

Guys if you are using Odin to flash Rom or Recovery on Windows 7 64 bit computer then make sure you put the ops and md5 files on the root of C:\
I was trying to flash the CWM recovery but it wasn't successful and when I tried to reboot my phone it was stuck on boot . Then from the instruction of a thread I moved my ops and md5 file to root of C:, and amazingly it worked like a charm.
I thought that I should share it with you guys.
Thanks

Why do you say that, you mean C:\.....not any other folder??
I flashed my ROM, as shown below, and those files were in other folders:

My PC is Windows 7 64-bit:
So, I don't know......maybe something else, you mean another drive, like D:\ or E:\ ??

I believe you......
but don't believe it is a general widespread, known issue....
as I shown in the pics, screencap taken from my actual first ODIN FW flash on this phone......
Files were anywhere but in root of C:
Perhaps I am one lucky dude......

Thats true, it is some Windows permission issue I think. This doesnt't happen on all PCs, but if it happens it is the easiest solution.
Other programs have also issues with files in some directions/folders.
C:/ is just always mentioned because it is 99% a hard drive, and it has to be in the root of a hard drive(to be sure).

Haha,, you are right. However most of the modern applications that are being written in modern languages dont have such kind of problems. I think Odin is using very old windows API calls for handling files, but i am not sure about it as i dont have source code.

Perhaps, but as ODIN is Samsung tool, I just don't know....
If you look at Service Manual I upped some time ago, in Section 6 Level 1 Repair, you see Samsung use this Multi Downloader for their own service ppl tool........
[this is PDF in Google Docs]
sorry, the manual is all over the place, but ODIN is there!!!
But, as you can see, files could be anywhere, so I don't know.
Anyway, cheers, I have a cold beer waiting!!!!

HTC Desire C root problem

Hello, I want to root my HTC Desire C with Superboot R1 but I cant. When I try it on Windows, the cmd shows me:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When I try it on Ubuntu it shows me boot.img error or something similarly. Please, help me, I dont know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks

Are you f**king kiding me?! At first I must root the phone. Please dont spam this thread. Thanks

Are you running it as administrator? If you do, please try simply launching it without admin rights.
And no, he is not "f**king kiding" you. You don't need root to flash a new ROM, you need custom recovery for that job.

Yes, I run it as administrator and I tried it without admin rights too. It just doesnt work.
In Linux it shows me:
downloading 'boot.img'... FAILED (status malformed (1 bytes))
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And I know that I dont need root to flash a rom, but for flashing rom I need recovery and recovery needs root permissions. I rooted a lot of android devices and I know what I do and how it works. But this phone is really hard to root.
Thanks for reply

Try redownloading the boot.img, that's all I can think of.
You can also try this fastboot for Windows, it works fine with my Desire C.

Thanks
I think that in Windows is problem in drivers. Here is screen of drivers list:
As you can see (sorry, Iam from Slovakia and so I have Slovak language in Windows), I havent driver for Android Phone and I think that this is the main problem. But why it wont works in Linux?
I can try your fastboot but I think that it will not works because I havent Android Phone driver.
And in Linux, how I can redownloading boot.img?

Just download it again from Modaco. I think that is the problem.
And if you're interested I can give you drivers for Windows 8 that work with fastboot, being a little weird sometimes though.

Yes, when I double click on boot.img it shows me that the file is damaged. But I downloaded it from modaco again and it shows me that same.
I would like to ask you if you could me upload the drivers which works, because I would like to root this phone finally.
Thanks

I really hope your OS is 64 bit, turns out I don't have 32 bits drivers. I hope this can solve the problem, even though I doubt to(fingers crossed). If it doesn't work, then I really don't know what the problem could be.

YES!!! You are really fantastic! Thank you so much, finally my phone is rooted. Thank you so much

Whoa! Nice, I'm really glad I helped. :highfive:

Welcome to Sony. Reboot your comp and if it still doesn't show up then god knows.

Have you got latest version of flashtool installed?
Not near my pc, but am sure theres the option to browse for the ftf file in flashtool? Just make sure source folder is pointed to the firmware folder your ftf is in and flash.

[Q] I can't root my xiaomi redmi note 8 pro

Hi, i have a xiaomi redmi note 8 pro (64gb), with the bootloader unlocked, MIUI 12.5.7 global, debug enabled
Using Google Platform-Tools, after entering fastboot (with "adb reboot bootloader") and flashing the twrp recovery (with "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img") I cannot enter the custom recovery, whether I use the combination of button, whether you use the command "fasbtoot boot recovery/twrp.img"
I tried to change the USB port of the PC but I always get the same error: FAILED (Status read failed (Too many links))

Have you tried uninstall ing your device existing drivers, shutting down and turning on you computer and reconnecting your phone again ? This can work in some cases
