Hey Guys, it's possible a dual boot on HTC Wildfire S? I would install Cyanogen Mod 7 + CyanoGen Mod 9 or other ROM.
Thanks
Ciao ragazzi, รจ possibile un dual boot su un HTC Wildfire S? Vorrei installare la Cyanogen Mod 7 + la Cyanogen Mod 9 o un'altra ROM.
Grazie
i seriously doubt it....wildfire s struggles for space as it is, without having 2 roms installed at the same time :O
Ok... but i have an HTC Wildfire and i have installed BootManager and i have 3 Roms...
If your phone is S-OFF(not BL Unlocked) then maybe
If it it is BL Unlocked,then no
If you have S-OFF'ed and BL Unlocked(Which is EXTREMELY STUPID),Then also the answer is no
I have a phone unlocked with HTC DEV...

BL Unlocked(aka BootLoader Unlocked) means unlocking from HTCdev..........so the answer is no
I have tried it myself(my phone is also unlocked from HTCdev),followed the instructions i got on asking the Bootmanager devs......Didnt work
Ok... So no hope? =(

Why is it extremely stupid to have an S-OFF phone with an unlocked bootloader?

Because an Unlocked bootloader restricts access to radio and a few other partitions
While S-OFF gives you total access to it........So by unlocking your bootloader while you are S-OFF,you purposely restricted access to partitions
In my opinion it is quite stupid

I don't think so.
In my opinion (which mostly is wrong) I think S-OFF + BL Unlocked = All S-OFF Features + just display of
****UNLOCKED****
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
BLA
BLA
That's what I think. It could also depend on the order of being done.
For example, I S-OFF my device and THEN get BL unlocked. There's a chance im restricted to modify radio or whatever since BL unlocked was the latest.
Second. I BL UNLOCK then I S-OFF. This way I get full control, despite having BL UNLOCKED.
Just my opinion.
And finally, @OP - Since the Wildfire has got Dual Booting And All, we may just need a dev to make a script that does it for OUR phone.

You maybe right,i'm no expert after all
But the reason why you can't dual boot on a BL Unlocked phone is that certain permissions are required for dual booting which only S-OFF phones can provide....
I've had talks with the Bootmanager devs via Email and they have explained me this stuff

As if I am an expert..
Well, in conclusion we need S-OFF.

Dual booting is possible.
You must have installed full busybox.
If you firmware version is 2.26.401.3 boot manager did not work(i don't know how it will be in other versions)
You must have bootloader s-off, not unlocked from HTCDev. If you have unlocked it relock it and downgrade hboot to 1.08.0000(or something like that)
In boot manager probably phone setup will not work. Backup you boot partition from TWRP recovery. Boot rom from app. If you cant boot you phone rom flash boot img from fastboot or from TWRP.

This thread is EXTREMELY old..............I seriously see no reason to revive it, plus dual booting would actually imply towards installing 2 different roms on the phone or external storage and switching them conviniently, instead of using the recovery for it
[]Hi guys..i bought a htc one x yesterday and it was working fine but suddenly its start restarting into boot loader and when i tried the reset factory setting its turn on again but stuck on htc logo.and then restart after few secends.

Hi friends !
I have a stock rom problem for a while. my sister has a Htc Desire 816w dual and somehow her devise came unlocked.
we can not give the device back beause she is using it more than a year. but it started slowing down again.
i have been searching a stock ruu and i wanna relock bootloader but i can not find it.
i have tried just relock the bootloader but when i do this the devices isnt turn on. when you press the power button it goes immediatly into bootloader menu. i did those, just relock bootloader, relock bootloader than factory reset, a lot of stoch roms all of them are didnt help.
cid : HTCCN703
mid : 0P9C70000
i need a stock rom rar and relock the bootloader and install the stock rom from sdcard.
up up up !
i had a new device htc desire 820G+ and when I rebooted the phone in fastboot loader mode the devices goes to black screen with fast boot written in it at the bottom. Any idea to unlock the boot loader.
i treid every thing inclluding htc tool kid. evry thing but i cannot ulock the boot loader any help please............................ root is sucessfull but i need to ulock the bootloader
You don't need to unlock the bootloader. You can flash anything with SP Flash Tool
