Hi,
I've just downloaded Juwe11's RAM script and I've been trying to copy to the system>etc>init.d but it always says Copy Fail? My Wildfire is currently running CM7-RC1
Also, I'm trying to S-Off my Wildfire which currently has the HBOOT 0.80 but when I try to download the official RUU with HBOOT 1.01 I get an error and it won't install.
Could anyone point me to the right direction please? Thanks in advance.
Copy pasting using a GUI based app like that (Atleast on a permanent basis) will need S-OFF. What is the error you are getting when you are trying to install an RUU?
Try flashing this ROM first:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=877977
Once done, then try installing the RUU (WWE 2.22.405.1 EXE File from Shipped ROMs)
If it still fails, then try extracting the ROM.zip from the RUU, rename it to PC49IMG.zip and place it on your SDCard, then reboot in the bootloader mode.
Hi,
Thanks for the quick reply. Which do I flash the ROOTED or UNROOTED one? Do I just use CWM to flash those ROM's you've mentioned? My CWM version is 2.5 would that be fine?
Thanks in advance.
Try the unrooted one, and yes, it will work fine with CWM 2.5
Thanks, will do it as soon as I get home.
Sure, if it still doesn't work, let me know the specific error the RUU gives when trying to install.
Hi,
I just flashed the UNROOTED version of 2.2.1 ROM that you have recommended. I've now been trying to flash the official RUU WWE 2.22.405.1 with the radio however I keep getting an error ID 171 which says that there is a problem with the USB Connection between my phone and my PC.
This is the RUU Version I've downloaded from ShippedROMS
RUU_Buzz_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.22.405.1_Radio_13.55.55.24H_3.35.20.10_release_160191_s
igned.exe
I'm pretty sure it's working fine as I can access my phone as a storage device.
Any advice on what I should do?
Thanks in advance.
Flashing RUU's seems to have lots of problems.
Try extracting the ROM.zip file from the RUU, there's a Youtube video for the same:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZe8HAFm3eU
Once you get the ROM.zip file, rename it to PC49IMG.zip, place on the root of your SDCard (i.e. not in any folders / subfolders), and then restart your phone in the Bootloader (HBoot) mode. It will automatically detect the file and start the install.

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!
It's all good mate

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.
Hi,
I currently have a custom rooted gingerbread rom installed on my Desire with clockworkmod recovery, S-ON and HBOOT 0.80.
Problem is, I'm sending my phone off to Vodafone for recycling so need to revert software to stock.
When I try to install the latest Vodafone ROM I get a bootloader error in the RUU program (presumably because my phone needs to be HBOOT 0.75?)
I've tried flashing just a generic RUU but I get a Customer ID error when doing it. I've tried creating a goldcard but still get the same CID error in the update utility.
Any ideas on a method of getting this back to stock?
I've been going round in circles! Thanks in advance
This is step by step quide for unrooting you htc mobile phone,rember unrooting is more dangerous than rooting.You will acheve this by updating RUU ROM,this will remove custom ROM and root.
Before starting charge up your phone and secure power to you PC.
Step1
Go to shipped-roms.com>Android,and choose RUU(for desire gsm its RUU_BRAVO...)
(its recommended to check MD5 hash,to be sure that file is correct)
Step2
Open RUU file>check box...I understand the risk...>Next
(Be sure that you pass all 3 conditions)
Step3
Connect your phone to PC via USB>Click Next(if you have custom ROM it will show its name)>Click Update>Click Next(Update process is in progress,dont interrupt it)
Congratulations!Your ROM update is complete!
Done this, as mentioned, can't flash a generic rom due to the phone being CID locked to Vodafone UK. Tried creating a goldcard but still getting the CID error.
Can't flash the Vodafone UK Rom as my hboot is 0.80 and not 0.75 which is what the last Vodafone Rom is.
I've got root and have tried extracting the rom from the vodafone ruu but when I go to flash it via recovery I get the following error
E:Can't open /sdcard/rom.zip
(bad)

you don't flash the rom.zip from recovery
rename it to PB99IMG.zip exactly, and not PB99IMG.zip.zip
put it on the root of your goldcard, reboot into bootloader, should find the file, then accept.
got that from here
if it doesn't work have you looked at bortak's troubleshooting guide, stickied to top of Q&A...
Thank you sooooo much! Worked a charm

Hi,
i have S-ON, bootloader unlocked, root, 2.13.401.3
after this update 2.26.401.3 stay still bootloader unlocked?
EDIT: maybe i need S-OFF, not possibly update my mobile...
you need to relock the bl in order to install any ruu.
i had a hard time updating my phone to 2.26
if you take a look at the first thread for this update, the ota update, there are details for how to update to this version and still keep bl-nlocked and easily root

Can anyone send me this file not via filefactory? There are no free slots in there at all

try the process in this thread, if you can't get it to work straight away, try using the method i used (thanks to rezo).
1 - install the ruu for 2.14.401.1
(http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?o6ox43q3taa33iu)
1.5 - if you can't do this because you already have the rom from 2.26 (but old radio etc), follow this tutorial so that you can go back to ruu 2.14.401.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952&highlight=downgrade
2 - use htcdev process (without ruu step) to unlock bootloader
3 - install cwm recovery by flashing this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1rdxmtpx26201or) via "fastboot flash recovery recovery(custom).img"
4 - put update.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?vycb7415nn9boct) on the root of your sd card and install from cwm recovery.
4.5 - if the update doesn't work (i.e. if you still get "triangle !" logo flash this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?bqni648c46r5e44) via cwm and choose the option "supervision", then try the update again.
5 - after installation and first boot (take a while) boot back to cwm and flash this root.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dumbffr3n8igau4)
you should now have the latest stock rom, latest hboot, latest radio, and be root.

what is the error code?
things to remember when you flash an ruu :-
you should not have modified system files (except for root)
you should have stock recovery to start with
you may need to create gold card
you should be relocked bootoader
if you are already on a software number which is higher than the ruu you are trying to install, you may need to downgrade first, using the guide posted above.
Is there anyway without S-OFF to update the radio? I would rather not loose any data too. I've manage to update everything but the radio.

if you're s-off already, can't you just flash the radio.img?
don't quote me on that, i'm not s-off myself, so i'm not reallu 'up' on all the thigns you can do and how you do them. but i was under the impression that with s-off you can flash it same as you flash recovery.img or system.img?
Do I need to flash radio? Because my girlfriends WFS has been t-mobile branded so I think I'm not able to flash RUU without gold crad?
Is it possible to flash system.img and boot.img only? Or will there be conflicts with radio/ramdisk etc...
BL is unlocked and device is rooted atm!
I installed this RUU to my Wildfire S by this tutorial
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1540952
My phone had unlocked bootloader (via htcdev.com), Root, S-On and my Hboot version was 1.09.0099. When I was trying to install RUU I got ERROR 140(bad hboot version). So I used mentioned tutorial to downgrade hboot and then I install new RUU.
I downloaded RUU 2.26.401.3 from this site because on Football's FileFactory link are allways full slots.
Code:

Sorry for poor english.
Can anyone please upload the RUU to another server?
FileFactory is always overloaded. And the russian site is too slow to download from America. 3kbps gg.
Any issues unlocking BL and rooting this update? Any compelling reason to stay with 2.13.401.2/3?

Hi all,
I have this RUU file which corresponds to my phone: RUU_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_SEA_WWE_1.28.728.9_Radio_1.1204.103.14_release_256493_signed.exe
The problem is that when I was using the stock rom, I installed the newest updates so now the RUU says it is actually Downgrading the phone from a highest version so it doesn't continue flashing the rom.
Is there any way to trick the RUU or must I find the rom.zip and flash the system manually? I have some problems with CMD not finding the device so I prefer using the RUU at this point.
Any help very appreciated.

Find the latest RUU compatible with your phone, you can't downgrade your ROM without S-OFF (and that is not available now)
I have installed CyanogenMod10 and want to return to the the original factory image. All my attempts have failed.
I receive the mesage "Hboot Version is older!" then " Update Fail!"
I have extracted the RUU ROM.zip file and tried to upload manually but all my attempts fails.
Any help how to proceed will be appreciated

That is possile if the RUU is older than the one currently on your phone. If this is not the case, try to flash the RUU via the program and from hboot.

Obviously , since I have Cyanogenmod 10 installed the RUU version is older. CM10 is somehow preventing the RUU to execute correctly,
I have tried to run the RUU with Hboot but it didn't recognized the phone.
your backup is older than the bootloader version now you have .

Sorry I will be clearer. The ruu has two thing before start. It evaluates your cid and hboot version. If you had (my example here) a 2.22 stock and you want to flash the ruu of the 2.02 version it will not work because the hboot in your phone is newer. This is a security measurement for you not to be able to downgrade your os.
Even more, ruu needs stock recovery, stock kernel, and the phone to be either "locked" or "relocked". And more, if you has custom is on the phone that time, the ruu will only work from fastboot usb mode.
It is a joke tough that in these phones unlock and custom os is easily achivable, while going back to stock is like a pain in the ass.
