Alright, so I was trying to use the RUU_Marvel_Virgin_Mobile_1.37.351.1_Radio_47.10.35.3029H_7.46.35.08_release_188032_signed.exe RUU that is in the sticky in the development section.
Now I have three vibrates. I have read that there is a way using the .zip file, but I cannot find one. Does anyone have such a file or know an alternate way to fix it?
Maybe this thread will help you understand what I mean: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128733.
The fix is 3 or 4 posts down in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21119377

Using the method that is in that thread, I only receive three vibrations still. I reformatted my SD card and placed the .zip file on there.
That might be the gsm virgin mobile (so confusing)

Thank you! I have no clue why my file isn't working. I've downloaded it several times and I reformatted two MicroSD cards (a 32GB and a 2GB).
All it does is vibrate three times and then that's all. I tried to follow the directions anyway (wait 5 minutes, Vol Up x1, wait another 10 Vol Up x1) but it didn't work...
Thank you for looking! I hope you find something.

Yes, I am certain. I got it from http://www.filefactory.com/f/7b4aa0a541dcf00f/.
That was a GSM ruu. Ill talk to my partner of providing a entire zip. Could be that when I broke the signature it prevented hboot flashing it. Or could just be the radio screwing away everything. If the new zip doesn't work when I post it I'd say you need to call VM and get a replacement

Would it be covered under warranty? Would they be able to tell that I previously was unlocked and had CM7 and CWM?
Thank you, though!
Nah they wouldn't know after what you did. Your partitions, blank. Just be sure to say that you accepted the update that you've been ignoring since November, and that happened. Nothing more. If they try to help, let them
Sent from my HTC_A510c using Tapatalk
I was just thinking and I had an idea...
What if someone ran the HTC Dev RUU for VMU Marvelc and took the rom.zip, renamed it to PG76IMG.zip and then I were to flash it? Would that work?
Obviously I couldn't do it so I would need a little help, but would it work?
Um it would restore hboot. Can you see if you can comect to your phone with a com port.? If not you need whole thing, as the radio is wrong even
You can see if it will vibe 5 tines though

Oh, I thought that the Radio and HBOOT were in the same zip image now. I cannot connect it to my computer (which is why I'm using a MicroSD->SD adapter.)
The download is too small for that. You can try though
Sent from my HTC_A510c using Tapatalk
Alright, so I contacted RadioShack (that's who I have my warranty with) and I setup a claim. I had flashed CM7 and CWM will they be able to see that those are on there?
Also, will they know that I had previously unlocked (I doubt it; the RUU failed at "Waiting for bootloader")
According to everyone I've talked to from RadioShack, just installing the FOTA and then having it not turn on is covered so that is the claim I am using.

I believe that it gets downloaded to the /cache partition, and it is usually some random filename. I'm pretty sure if you get logcat while it's downloading, it'll tell you at least the URL it's pulling the file from, and possibly even the save location. Maybe Trailblazer will be able to provide some more detailed info though.

Ok. I assume verizon will push the update to the same phone, twice. I know it isn't an issue on GSM, but I'm not sure about CDMA, with the way it's set up. If they do, I'll revert tomorrow afternoon and see if I can find it to pull it.
Trailblazer, if you read this, before then, Something a little more comprehensive would be appreciated.

Hi,
I have some n00b questions that I would really appreciate some help on...
1. Are these files also known as the "radio" and "kernel."?
EB01 = radio?
EC09 - kernel?
2. Do I have to rename them both to "update.zip" before I place them on my sdcard?
3. When I flash them from CWM recovery, do I select "install update.zip" or "install zip from sd card"?
4. Would it be a better idea for me to use an odin package (EC09 odexed)?
5. I already flashed to a build called "EC07_clean." Do I need to go back to a stock DL17 before I flash EB01+EC09, or can I just proceed from EC07?
Thank you to anyone who takes time to help me on these. I appreciate it!

1. Not really. I'm not the person to explain that, I'm sure Tx or one of the other, more experienced regulars could explain it better. EB01 only serves to fix OTA issues and prepare the phone for EC09. As EC09 is being flashed, the radio and kernel are patched/updated from DL17.
2. No. Leave them named how they are. Just be sure you know which one is which so you can flash them in the correct order. EB01, then EC09.
3. Choose "Install zip from sd card" and then navigate to where they are. Putting them on the root of the sd card makes it easier to find them.
4. You don't have to. I honestly find CWM to be easier as no PC required. Once again, one of the other regulars may have a better answer here.
5. Going back to stock DL17 and then flashing EB01/EC09 is the only way, I think. Going from EC07 to EC09 probably won't work.
Okay I've been getting reports of roms not flashing right for the marvelc. So I set out for a solution and found one I believe. One issues with some roms, is that people have been doing it wrong since they got the phone. From Gsm recovery to even gsm roms. They used cmtd a very bad idea ect ect. So now, id like to present my method for fixing all of this. First, soff your hboot, then upgrade and unlock. install custom recovery and wipe all of the partitions. Then reboot to fastboot and flash the recovery posted bellow. Report back with any findings
http://goo.im/devs/simonsimons34/marvelc/cm9/tests/recovery.img
I was just wondering if you could give step by step instructions to flashing the recovery.img. File.
Download it. Rename to recovery.img. Place in the same directory as fastboot and adb.
Put your phone into fastboot (adb reboot bootloader).
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Simonsimons34 I have tried many things but this CWM actually let me flash a rom your great!! thanks so much and this worked for me
Glad to hear it this recovery has all the bugs with flashing and backups fixed so you should be good for the life of the phone

This process is 100% safe. HBOOT won't let us brick using this method.
THIS METHOD IS NOT WORKING YET!! WE STILL NEED TO FIND FILES!!
We'll need to create a Goldcard for our phone. You may have heard of Whitecards or Javacards, but a Goldcard on a CDMA is better than either of those. We don't have SIM card slots where those devices really work their magic.
Create a goldcard by running the application "SimpleGoldCard" in the attachments (unzip first). BACK UP YOUR SD CARD.
Connect your SD card to your computer (Recovery in phone or MicroSD adapter).
Backup SD card
Wipe SD card.
Place SD card back in phone.
Get CID (MMC2)
Copy CID
Go to URL in application
Paste CID
Download .img
Load IMG in application
Patch MMC
You now have a Goldcard. Now you need DIAG files to clear S58. I have such DIAG files for the CDMA HTC Wildfire S (marvelc/a510c/PG76DIAG.nbh/PG76DIAG.zip), but I have no such files for the HTC One V (primoc/t320e/PK76DIAG.*). However, I think I may have found such files on a Chinese phone hacking site. You'll probably need Google Translate to read them.
http://www.52sjwx.com/read.php?tid=80081
http://www.52sjwx.com/read.php?tid=80079
http://www.52sjwx.com/read.php?tid=74089
It could be any of those files or none of them that will clean our S58 and give us S-OFF. I contacted the site admin. It costs $30 for an unlimited number of downloads on their site. Many XDA users already have access to that site, so if we can raise money to download from that site or find a user with access we can get those three files and I can check them to see if they clean S58 data or not.
Our S-OFF process would go like this:
Use Goldcard method above
Put a PK76DIAG.nbh and PK76DIAG.zip file on SD Card root
Reboot into HBOOT
Clean S58
Reboot
Have S-OFF
This is the process that the HTC Wildfire S and many other devices use. HTC devices still recognize Goldcards and there are still DIAG file leaks, so it is possible that we can get S-OFF. Also, if any of you know anyone who owns or works at an HTC repair shop, we can work out a way to get the DIAG file that we need.
we still need to have the DIAG file

Hello,
I bought a broken screen T989 from ebay. I needed the motherboard from the device. However, upon receiving device, i swapped motherboards no problem. However, i have an "Unknown" imei and baseband number.
I know there is a way to restore the IMEI from scratch on my galaxy S III (T999) but i am not sure if that method will work on the SII (Also quite afraid to as it most likely may brick it)
Does anyone know the manual method for restoring it?
Also, google lead to a bunch of promissing looking threads about the I9100 (International version) but from what i have read the T989 uses a different partition for the EFS stuff.
Thanks everyone!!
Do you know the imei number by any chance?

No way. So I just flash the efsfix.zip and then a radio?! Sex. If this works I'll love you forever I also cannot use Odin cause the seller failed to mention the USB port doesn't work except for charging. -.- ugh fml

Nope i never did. Everything i ever found lead to using a Jtag box. Which costs about 100 bucks xD And i don't know anyone who has one.

I got my T-989 fixed about 30 minutes after posting my question to you. I'm just not sure which one of the steps I took was the actual bullet. But I'll post what I did here in the same order.
1. Downloaded and put onto the phone's sd card these files for future flashing back to back. They are. the "efsfix.zip" file from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1611796. Also, this rom which comes with it's own modem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818305. That's it. Now maybe the trick is in the steps though?
So what I did was boot into clockworkmod recovery "latest one for this phone." Used the factory reset option. Next went to mount the phone to usb option so I could access the internal memory card's files and deleted them all. I had a suspicion that maybe there's something corrupt in the data files or whatever. Really this might be silly but whatever, I did it. I still had my 2 files from before on the external sd card so no worries. Next I unmounted and disconnected from the pc. Then cleared cache again, then cleared dalvic again (I do these two steps a lot when flashing stuff back to back). Then flashed the efsfix.zip. Then clear cach, dalvic again. Then flashed the rom shown above which installed everything in one swoop like kernel, modem, system files, ect. After that finished I cleared cache, dalvic one last time. Then let it reboot.
So, it boots normally but upon the first "What is your name" screen it loads with a funky keyboard. It's a lol factor. Apparently a goof of the rom that happens sometimes. Just skip it all or figure out how to choose the T9 by using the menu key. Anyway, after changing my keyboard from inside the working settings menu to the samsung one I realized that I was so distracted by the keyboard issue that I I was just now noticing that I had a working baseband and it was connected to the network (T-Mobile) again as usual. Problem solved. Now as a last precautionary step I reboot into recovery (clockwordmod) again and use the option to backup efs folder to external sd card just for good measure. Then finally make nandroid backup of the whole working rom as well. You could probably flash any rom you want after this though. Anyway, something in there made it work so I hope it might work for you too.
