[Q] how to check if i am properly ROOTED? - HTC Wildfire S

i am a n00b, so bear with me!
i have used XTC CLIP and gained S-OFF, so i see:
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-0.90.000
MICROP-0451
RADIO-7.46.35.08
i then followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1195275
and did the PG76IMG.zip + root.zip installs
then i used ROM Manager to install ClockworkMod Recovery and then backed-up my phone image.
-- of note, in the ROM Manager when i was installing CWM (5.0.2.0)- it only listed HTC Buzz (Wildfire), so i chose that as my handset...
was this the wrong thing to do?
i also updated superuser and the SU binary.
so - i tried to install a few different ROMs but none worked, mostly with 'status 7' errors?
how do i know what is wrong?
i checked using Root Checker Basic - it said: "Congratulations! This device has root access!"
the ROMS i am trying are:
Cyanogenmod 7.2.0-RC0-marvel-KANG
JikantaruROM_XE_11711
error log:
-- Installing: /sdcard/update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-marvel-KANG-signed.zip

------------------
i have a feeling i am using the wrong recovery program - but would love some feedback on how to flash a ROM to my phone somehow!

At least you flashed wrong recovery, try from this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1439466

flash clockwork mod recovery by alquez, then go boot into recovery, after that put the rom you want on sd card, as a zip, and just install it from the recovery... pm me if u need any help

i just tried from the above linked thread, when i ran recovery.bat from archive it said:
sending 'recovery' <3820 KB>... OKAY
writing 'recovery'... FAILED <remote: not allowed>
All done have a nice day etc
then when i boot into recovery, i still see:
Recovery v3.2.0.1_xda.cn
is that still the wrong Recovery?

the Superuser + SU binary installed fine... but still cant flash the ROM???
same error as in OP

can you help one step more by pointing me to the best thread describing how to make 1GB+ for apps? using DATA2SD?

On a rom that supports data2sd, like cm 7.2 or jikantaru xe or w/e...
download partition magic (or use any of theese : Best partitioning software), make 1024mb (don't go over it, i have read about some bugs, its enough anyway) ext4 and rest of sd card make fat32, build it in partition magic, then go in options set aplication moving (tick) and choose location to external... and u have it ....
EDIT, i just found other guy wrote this so, but i think it can be used on roms that dont have data2sd, thats whats that installer for i guess
- Make 1GB memory for apps
1. Download cm7.2 port by alquez
2. Download data2sd installer http://www.mediafire.com/?757066a1516tdkt
3. Factory wipe then install cm7
4. Back up SD card
5. In recovery go to advanced -> partition SD card -> 1024mb
6. Install data2sd
7. Boot into cyanogenmod
8. Restore SD card stuff if anything went wrong
9. Enjoy and click thanks to benjamingwynn for his tutorial.
p.s. Make backup of your data card, since you might loose your data if you are partitioning sd card for first time. So once again, backup it.
first one is by me and second is by banjamingwynn as u see ... use the one u like

You should consider Link2SD as well. In my opinion, the best thread for that on XDA is [TUTORIAL][Link2SD][ROOT] How to prep your SD card for it...Windoze Style. Don't forget to thank d33ps1x if you use it.

[Q] LeeDrOid_2.3d_A2SD install problem

Hi all,
Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. New to all of this but I read through the overwhelming info on here before getting started. Successfully rooted via unrevoked, no problems there. SD card was correctly partitioned for A2SD. Trying to install LeeDrOid_2.3d_A2SD via ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.9 & I am getting the following error message.
assert failed: getprop("ro.build/product.device") =="
ll getprop("ro.product.board") == "bravo"
E:Error in /sdcard/LeeDrOid_2.3d_A2SD.zip
(status 7)
Installation aborted.
Not sure what info you need but here is what's listed on Recovery screen:
BRAVO DVT2 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-0.98.0000
TOUCH PANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-2.05.10.08.11
Thanks in advance!

Make sure you downloaded the entire file. Ive seen this happen with people that had the file not completely downloaded.
Use MD5 checksums to make sure its the correct file.
Neh doesn't matter you have a CDMA desire. This is not supported by leedroid.
Look in this thread and find a CDMA rom.
Thanks, I had trouble downloading the entire file but the Torrent route seemed to work. Downloading from another source now & trying again. MD5 checksums, is that in the recovery module? This is all new territory for me so please excuse my ignorance.
Thanks Ghost!! Checking out the thread now. Do you have a suggestion for a stable CDMA option? Not looking for anything exotic, A2SD is the main priority with all stock functions still usable.

[HUGE PROBLEM] Phone doesn't boot!

Before I describe my problem, here are few informations about my phone:
• Unlocked bootloader via htcdev
• SAGA PVT SHIP S-ON RL
• HBOOT 2.00.0002
• RADIO 3822.10.08.04
• Stock ROM T-Mobile PL branded Android 2.3.5 (unfortunatelly messed up )
• Revolutionary CWM 4.0.1.4
So, I wanted to flash CM7 and I got this error:
Code:
--Installing: /sdcard/unofficial-CM7-marvel-nightly-02_26_2012.zip
Finding update package...

(Status 7)
Installation aborted.
Someone said that I should wipe before installing ROM, so I wiped data/cache and dalvik cache but I still got the same error. I've found out that I can format system partition in "mounts and storage" so I did it without making backup before... Of course after that error appeared again and moreover I can't boot stock ROM now :/ It freezes at boot image and nothing happens.
I've tried to flash unziped EU Stock ROM from PG76IMG.zip file via flashboot (commands flashboot flash system system.img and flashboot flash boot boot.img). Terminal said that everything is ok, but still freezes at boot image. Strangily flashing userdata.img, rcdata.img, ramdisk.img ends with fail. I really don't know what to do... Putting PG76IMG.zip into root of sdcard and turning device into bootloader mode doesn't work, since bootloader can't see it. Updating via RUU doesn't work too, I've got errors every time...
Please, help me. Is there any chance to fix this issue?

Are you sure that it is Wildfire S ? It looks like you have desire s not wildfire s which is very similar to desire s
Sent from somewhere with HTC Wildfire S
Agreed, wildfire s is called marvel and old wildfire(mine) is called buzz. If I was you I would go to shipped roms.com and see if you can find saga, then try on your device.

[Q] cannot update cwm 2.5.0.7 to anything at all

Hi there,
well i bricked one SD card in the process so far, not bad
So, here is my problem. I got my RMA Desire back und rooted it with unrevoked. After that installed ginger villain, anyhow i wanted to install myself another ROM which required repartioning sd ext to a larger partition. Smart as I am, I saw that newer versions of cwm can do that for you, so i wanted to update my outdate 2.5.0.7 version to 5.xxxx. Hell it won't work, neither installing via ROM Manager nor installing via cwm itself. Not even via fastboot. No chance there either.
So there i sat, 1 o'clock in the morning and thought why not give some partitioning program a shot, worked fine with my harddrives. this is where i made the fat partition smaller, deleted the ext3 partition since i couldnt resize it, made a 1.6 gig ext3 partition and thought i was king of the hill. yall might know already that i bricked that sd card. Now running on the ****ty 4 gig original one.... that has no ext3 or swap at all.
So, now my question is, how can i update my cwm to something that isnt as outdated as my underwear?! And any way that i could unbrick my fine 16 gig sd card?
thanx in advance and apologies for any grammar or spelling mistakes.
cheers
Are you S-OFF? Please post fastboot output after flashing recovery.

Installing CWM_Recovery_5.0.2.3.carebear.jr0dd.zip in recovery gives me:
Code:
assert failed: getprp("ro.product.device") == crespo"
getprop("ro.build.product") == "crespo"
E:Error in /sdcard/CWM_Recovery_5.0.2.3.carebear.jr0dd.zip
Status 7
Installation aborted.
Guessing there should be standing desire not crespo.
Anyhow, trying to flash recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-bravo.img or recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.0.2-bravo.img via fastboot gives me this:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-bravo.img
sending 'recovery' (3054 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.440s]
writing 'recovery'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 0.781s
Did you try flashing it again with signature check disabled? Be careful with this tho, if you bootloader gets messed up you phone will be unbrickable... Where did you get the recovery from?
I did try that.
Thanks for pointing me to S-OFF, that was my problem. I used aplharev to get to S-OFF and then flashed via fastboot cwm touch and now it is actually installed.
at the moment cwm is partitioning my sd card. so hopefully my desire will be up and running in the next half hour.
If anyone is having the same problems, feel free to ask.
for now i am happy

download the latest recovery http://download.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.4.0-endeavoru.img
flash through fastboot. fastboot flash recovery,fastboot erase cache,fastboot flash boot boot.img than rom will work
or open the zip (the ROM)and navigate to META-INF\COM\GOOGLE\ANDROID and extract updater-script, open this up in notepad++ (Regular notepad wont do it, it breaks it) and removed the 3 assert lines.save it and replace that back into the same directory. It should work then

You should modify the updater-script and remove the part related to the device control at the top, but I don't know if you can do it...
I you need I can do it for you...just post the updater-script under META-INF/Android..

Don't modify the script. That check is there for a reason!
What does your phone say in HBOOT? If it is ENDEAVORU, are you sure you've got the right recovery?

You are indeed right.
I can only assume the recovery is wrongly identifying the phone, causing the script to fail.
Now I'm able to install the CM10 but when reboot, the phone got stuck. Cannot reboot. I saw from the installation instruction that we need to do something on 'boot.img' but I don't know how to do that.
Please advise.
@Op,
No mention about these in post 1 so I ask if you don't mind.
Did you unlock on HTCDev?
Did you flash Clockworkmod?
Did you flash SuperSU?
Did you flash boot.img?
And last, did you erase cache?
And also important, which CM10 are you trying to flash?

You indicate here that you do not know how to flash boot.img
This is why you are getting the boot loop.
1. In the CM10 installation zip, "cm-10-20120820-a7-endeavoru.zip" there will be a file called 'boot.img'
2. Extract this file and place it in your fastboot directory. You have fastboot already don't you?.
3. Restart phone in bootloader (Power + vol down)
4. Select fastboot
5. Type these commands "fastboot flash boot boot.img" followed by "fastboot erase cache"
6. Select HBOOT
7. Restart phone.
