[Q] Rerooting device is safe? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have 2 desire bravo, one is Amoled and the other is Slcd,
I rooted the amoled one with alpharev.nl, and everything works ok...
But i bought the S-LCD one already rooted, the one who sell me it told me that he rooted it with "unrevocked forever". it's s-off with CWM recovery and every thing work but i cant flash radio, hboot and recovery via fastboot, it also told me : FAILED (remote: not allowed)
is there a solution for this?
is it safe to reroot my device using alpharev.nl?
thx

you don't flash the radio through recovery. You flash it through fastboot!!

It's recommend to do this since one is S-OFF, you are right. But it's only really necessary if one's using a hboot with a /cache partition <35-40 mb.

I'am not flashing the radio through recovery. i am doing it with fastboot.
with the SLCD one i got this error when flashing hboot or radio :
sending 'hboot' (512 KB)... OKAY [ 0.094s]
writing 'hboot'... FAILED (remote: not allowed)

Doublecheck your bootloader if you are really S-OFF.

I have bravo stock hboot with 40M cache, so i had already tried to flash radio through CWM recovery and i got an error like :
amend scripting (update script) is no longer supported..

yes it's s-off!! it's weird.

That means your recovery is too modern for the script you want to flash. Since version 3.xxx cwm uses a newer scripts, but not all flashable zips support this. So you need to change recovery. This has to be done via fastboot. So we need to get your fastboot working:
Installed HTC drivers correctly?
Running windows or ubuntu (linux)?

Unrevoked forever is for cdma and cdma are dvt not pvt so that's not right

Oh thanks rootSU, only read "unrevoked".

In the same computer, it work with another Desire bravo that i rooted with alpharev

So what's your problem? I do not get it.

in the same computer fastboot work with on a bravo amoled device, and dont work with an other bravo scld device..
i think that the probleme is that the slcd one is not rooted well.
is it safe to reroot it with alpharev even it's s-off on bootloader?
thx

Okay, now I get it. No, I would say to set the slcd one back to stock and then S-OFF and root with revolutionary:
http://revolutionary.io
But read the documentation page carefully and make sure your hboots is supported. If it's not, use unrevoked (first) and alpharev (second) seperately.

okey i will do that
thx MatDrOiD

Anytime. Don't forget the thanks-button.

[Q] [SOLVED] Why can't flash in fastbbot?

Hi!
First sorry for my english...
So my problem is the next:
I've got a HTC Vision, i'm done with the rooting and s-off by using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wik...Phone.2C_Set_SuperCID.2C_and_Turn_Radio_S-OFF
Everything went fine, now i can get su in term emulator, i see s-off in fastboot, but when i try to flash recovery or splash screen i always get errors like this: (with splash.img it's the same)
C:\adb>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (4442 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.779s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.780s
I have no idea where should i start debugging...
I'm running Virtuous 1.0.1 and i'v got a modded cwm recovery (3.0.0.5) to charge with power off
Anyone can help me please?
EDIT:
In the wiki i read this:
"Assuming you've backed up your phone with Clockwork's nandroid, you can install the engineering HBOOT (bootloader), which among other things allows you to use fastboot flash (or flashing-over-usb from your computer). This is unnecessary for most users but provides additional functionality for developers. "
Is this mean i can't flash via fastboot without eng hboot?
Sorry if it's a noob question but it seems much difficult like with the normal desire.....
Yes you need the ENG. Hboot to push commands in fastboot.

somewhere else i found a solution to flash recovery in shell, and found one to flash splash img in shell too, but thanks...
my problew was only the eng hboot.... before the Vision i had a Bravo, and with that there was everything is simple... unrEVOked to root(1 click), alpharev to s-off(1 click again)... after those i can did everything....
the eng boot is new for me (in android), but now i know what can i do with it and what can i do without it.... but maybe the most important, i know, i can do almost everything without it, the only thing i have to do is to go on a longer way

[Q] Unable to use Unrevocked on my HTC Desire !

Hello,
I wanted to post in dedicated post in development section but I don't have enough message posted for that !
I'm trying to install a custom ROM on my Desire (non operator version, stock rom). So I rooted it with VISIONary+ and it looks to have succeeded. Then I installed RomManager to install Clockworkmod ! When I select Flash Clockworkmod in RomManager it states after few seconds that it downloaded it but not that it flashed it When I reboot with recovery mode I get the default android menu and not the one of Clockworkmod. What's wrong ?
I tried also with latest version of unrevocked but it hungs up at end stating "Root failed: perhaps your firmware is too recent !"
Here are all infos of my phone in Boot:

Hey I was facing similar issues few days back, use the RUU for your device to restore it to factory settings and then try unRevoked again.
also this is my post -http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=970566 hope this helps
To confirm, the 2.29.405.5 software is what was on your phone when you got it? If so, use unrEVOked 3.21 as this seems to work for most people (although I had no issues using 3.32 with the same version as you)

Yep I tried unRevoked with old version of amon_ra but no better luck, so I'm going to flash it to RUU and try again. Where should I find the RUU ? I just need to copy it at root of sd card and then in boot mode I select that file and that's it, right ?
Update: I found the link in forum with RUU for Desire Considering mine is an official HTC phone, not branded by any carrier, I should use one of these I suppose but which one :
RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.15.405.4_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4. 05.00.11_release_122704.exe

RUU_Bravo_Froyo_HTC_WWE_2.29.405.5_Radio_32.49.00. 32U_5.11.05.27_release
Update bis: these are all windows update programs so no way to use them for me as I run on Mac, and in Parallels on Mac, Desire doesn't appear as USB peripheral I can attach to Windows when it's in boot mode

Nope when I got it it was probably in Android 2.1 or 2.2 not sure and then I did the OTA update offered by HTC Latest one is few months away !

I had issues with the latest unrevoked and I was getting a failed message. When i removed my sd card everything goes well.
So give it a try without your sd card, who knows it might work for you too!
P.S I have the same HBOOT and android version with you.
Why are you usung unrevoked anyway? Since you are s-off you can easily flash a new recovery via fastboot.
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.
I don't think you can use unrevoked on an already rooted device - but not sure though.

When trying unrevoked, did you uncheck "disable security" (or similar) before hitting the button?
EDIT: Sry, I hit reply instead of edit.
It is really strange that you are S-Off. Maybe you are one of the few people having eng-bootloader from stock?
Probably runnung an RUU is your best bet.

If I try to run UNrevoked with Amon_Ra 2, I get Failed to get root. Is your firmware too new ?
With Amon_Ra 0.93 same error about CID missing !
With Clockwork mod 2.5.0.7, same error about CID missing !
I'm desperated It looks like my phone can't be upgraded easily Any other ideas ?

Which hardwarerevision does your desire have? You find this out, when you boot into hboot (start phone with pressed volume down and power button at the same time) and read the number in the first line behind the "pvt".
ship s-on
PVT4
hboot 0.93.0001
microp - 051d
touch panel - synt 0101
radio - 5.10.05.30
Tried flashing a different recovery image via clockworkmod and it failed at getting root, complaining of a possible newer firmware revision, which isn't the case because I rooted it a day ago, and superuser permissions app is in the appdrawer.

Clockworkmod does not work with pvt4 desires. You have to flash amonra recovery. Download it here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20471345/SUroot/Tools/Android/Recovery/recovery-RA_2.0.1.img
Run unrevoked again like before, but now integrate amonra recovery before:
File>Custom Recovery>choose downloaded amonra-img.
After this is finished, try to flash the rom you want again.
No warranty for any damage.

Hm... i hope, you can also boot into recovery... another idea is to flash recovery with this method:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/15/how-to-flash-a-new-recovery-image-if-you-are-already-rooted/
Last idea, if you used windows, you could try linux:

This method works for somebody in cyanogenmod forum:

If these things does not work, i am finished with my knowlegde. Maybe another one has an idea.

hi,
i got the same issue at beginning.
i did unrevoked 3.21 with 2518 cmw, i made i nanbck and was ready to s-off
it s only when s-OFFed that a flash amonRA 201 (i did it with fastboot)
so hehe is the link (before starting the process look at your app manager if an app called Zysploit is in - if so uninstall that app) then run unrevoked linked

fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery "imagename".img
You can also wipe everything from here. More on fastboot here:

Correct. Missed that bit...!
If I could somehow unroot it and return it to stock, then I could re-root and flash Amon-Ra instead of clockworkmod, which I am assuming would achieve S-OFF too?
Only thing is it's an SLCD Desire (I think, going by the HBOOT) and so I don't want to slcd-brick because I don't have a gold card or anything to restore it.
Or perhaps AlphaRev could help me solve all of my problems?
I really don't know at this juncture
Create goldcard with linux:
http://www.nazriawang.com/2010/04/how-to-create-goldcard-with-ubuntu.html
Then follow this guide:
http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-desire-desire-modaco-com/307683/howto-unroot-your-htc-desire/
Now you are back to stock with s-on and you can run unrevoked with custom recovery (amonra) again. Now, to get s-off you need to use alpharev:
http://alpharev.nl
Nice video tutorial (step four):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084
No warranty for any damage.
Can I skip the first two steps and just go straight to alpharev? Then I can install amon-ra and then use that.
According to this tutorial you could skip the first two steps.
But i do not know it with 100 percent.
So i recommend to ask the alpharev guys in irc. They will help you.

This has happened before in the sandvold irc. It lasted a while before I left. I'm not sure if it got fixed in the end. We tried everything we could think of. I certainly had decided it was bricked.

Not much help at this point but I had a desire in the same state a few weeks ago and it lives and breathes again. For the life of me I cant remember how I finally fixed it.
I believe I had to create a goldcard and flash an RUU.
IIRC you have a Locked bootloader. There is a section on the HTC website that might help.

That's just great. Apparently Black Rose employs a similiar protection like Alpharev. Better contact the dev team of BR, and get them to help unlock it.

Unlock it, then flash Alpharev followed by Boot, Recovery and Radio for the Desire (NOT Nexus One!).
Once you get the correct radio and recovery on it, you can install a custom rom.

I flash this RUU RUU_Bravo_HTC_WWE_1.21.405.2_Radio_32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.02_2_release_126984_signed
But failed with error code 110 and showed system -Fail PU.
Can you suggest any RUU for HTC Desire?
That is from my pm to dla5244... who is started this thread
Sorry about this we have a guy here who flashed BlackRose on HTC Desire - someone told him ?!? Could you please take a look on safe removal of BlackRose and get stock or alpharev hboot on[/QUOTE]
Wow...
Did you flashed blackrose on your desire?
First, disable flashing protect by using blackrose installer.
(Advanced section, ignore device list)
Then, fastboot flash hboot (alpharev image file name)

[Q] Problem with New ClockWorkMod ROM in my HTC Desire

Morning,
Please recently i have flashed a new Custom ROM in my HTC Desire A8181 that i found in ClockWorkMod web site!!! I flashed it in my phone with Rom Manager Premium v4 because more recent ROM Manager didn't install in my HTC Desire with Android 2.1 update 1. The Recovery that i used is one which installed by unrevoked3! The Problem is after installation of new ROM my phone doesn't boot well! It show the first white screen with HTC writed on it after it's showing black screen with ANDROID writed on it and stop there! No more action!!! I don't understand!!!
My radio is 4.05.00.11
HBOOT 0.75.0000
S-ON
I can't pass in S-OFF because revolutionnary doesn't work with my model HBOOT! How can i do! I wonder if it's possible to reinstall a new ROM in Recovery mode!!!
use bortak's troubleshooting guide stickied to the top of Q&A
you'll need to RUU, recommend the 2.3.3 GB one. then use revolutionary to s-off. afterwards flash 4ext recovery (see my sig), it's better and can partition your sd card properly. then full wipe and flash a new rom.
uninstall rom manager, do not use it on this phone, it is bad for desire. it may be the reason you're having these problems in the first place.
Problem with fastboot or bootloader!
Please, i can't use fastboot in my PC well! When i try some instruction like flash my hboot to a newer in fastboot SDK because my hboot is too old to be S-OFF by revolutionnary I got an error! It say it can verify the signature of my bootloader! That's what writen in my command!
c:\fastboot>fastboot flash hboot bravo_alphasspl.img
sending 'hboot' (512KB)...
OKAY [ 0.095s]
writing 'hboot'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote:signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 0.169s
It does same thing i try to erase system,boot or userdata!Please help!
slow down, have you even followed the guide?
- have you installed the fastboot drivers in order to be able to use it.
- you can't flash an hboot unless you are s-off
- run the 2.3.3 RUU like i said, then s-off using revolutionary
try the guide again..
Okay! Thanks i think that Download RUU Froyo like it says in the tread is the most way for me to resolve my problem!!!
