Hi there,
I've managed to unlock the bootloader and root my HTC Wildfire S.
Then I flashed CWM Recovery (tried several versions) with fastboot and also with ROM Manager.
The installation of CWM Recovery is successfull, however when I go into the bootmenu and select Recovery, the screen stays black and the icons at the buttom of the phone are lit up.
So the problem is I can't get into Recovery to make a backup and to flash a different ROM.
Some information about my phone:
HTC Wildfire S A510e
Android 2.3.5
ROM version: 2.13.401.3
From the bootmenu:
*** UNLOCKED ***
MARVEL PVT SHIP S-ON RL
HBOOT: 1.09.0099
MICROP-0451
RADIO: 7.54.39.28M
I know others have this same issue, but I haven't read any solution yet. I hope someone knows the solution or a workaround to make a backup of the stock ROM and flash a custom ROM.
Thanx in advance!
I have same problem looking for solution to backup nand just in case.
Try reflashing recovery or install one like alquez's unofficial.

Thanks for the ideas, but I've already tried that several times.
All custom recoveries don't seem to work. I'm afraid that this is a problem that some versions of the wildfire s have..
Any other ideas are welcome!

Just want to say that I have exatly the same problem mentioned above. Same ROM, riadio and hboot as well. I tried lot of methods to flush custom recovery but nothing helped. Also tried both 5.0.2.6 and 5.0.2.8 CWM
Same problem: Downgrade HBOOT?
Hey,
Have the same problem aswell.. I tried alot see topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1635718
The one thing i didn't try is to downgrade my hboot. I didn't want to do this because it will aswell downgrade android from 2.3.5 to 2.3.3...
And this is exactly the thing which i wanted to avoid before being able to backup stock rom....
Maby you could try it. There is also away to download stock rom and instal it in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467844
The thing there is only that i don't know if its posible to install a rom without being able to get into the recovery.
Good luck.
Question?
Hello! I have the same problem and I too am trying to find a solution.
How are your successes?
Sorry for my english.
Hi lapochkin, still no luck..

There are ideas why this is happening?
The standard recovery is working well, then the whole thing in "recovery.img".
But what's wrong with it???
If you ROM rooted and opening rom, rom manager and press "Flash. Clockwordmod Recovery "

did you flash a marvel or a marvelc/ct (don't know exact name) cwm recovery rom by accident?
Yes, all known Recovery, CWM, RZV... runs only only standard recovery(((
have the same problem as everyone else cant work out why after clockwork mod is installed we cant reboot into recovery been at this for hours now and getting fed up! Anyone got any ideas at all?
The million dollar question
Guys, let's write the HTC and why not work as expected???

Good idea, but the thing is a custom recovery is not their resposibility.

Someone told me to downgrade hboot, which i didn't try yet because i first wanted to make a backup of my stockrom.
Doesn't sound very likely but if your almost desperate...

Hi all!
I mean not to complain about something that does not work "Recovery", ask why this is happening and can it be such as to decide whether to help solve this problem if create one "S-OFF"...
Who ever tried to put the old "CWM Recovery", for example 3.0.x.xx?
Put an old version of "CWM Recovery", please ...
I could not find ...

try my guide. Since you're on cm7r2 hboot remember to flash bravo stock before you use the RUU
Essentially, all you can do is fastboot flash hboot downgrade.img then RUU again.

How would I flash to a stock rom to sell the phone?
I think I am going to keep the memory card, so the person that buys it would have issues if I left it on a custom ROM due to the fact that you need to generally partition the sd card and such.
Or are there any basic roms that are stable and dont require partitioning?
Is it a gsm desire, if so flash the relevant ruu from shipped roms problem solved

Hi guys.
Hoping you can help me.
I rooted my DHD some time ago, with help from this forum, and was running the RCmix3D rom.
Well I have upgraded to an HTC One X, and a friend would like to buy my DHD, so. I thought I’d factory reset the phone.
Before I did that though I did a nandroid backup through CWM recovery.
After the nandroid backup, I rebooted into the ROM, factory reset the phone, however it then just booted through the White HTC screen into a black screen with the word ‘android’ in the middle.
Now, I didn’t panic, and I left the black screen for a while, but it didn’t change for ages.
So I pulled the battery, went back into CWM Recovery, and tried to restore, however, the restore didn’t take!
So I thought I’d just download another ROM, and flash that, but THAT hasn’t worked!!!
So I’m stuck without a backup and without a ROM,
I got the DHD on day of release so I guess it had Froyo on it!
Can I just download an RUU for this device and run that or are there additional steps that I would need to perform before that?
Thank you in advance.
Greg.

Greg, Factory reset only works when you are stock. As you were running a custom rom, you have just deleted the rom from your phone. You will need to flash a RUU to revert it to stock.
I don't actually know why you couldm´t flash a custom rom, but it should work as long as you are S-OFF.

Cheers Brother.
The reason is that I'm not sure the new user would be ok with teh extra finctionality, and I'd worry they much it up (Much like I have done)
I still con't quite understand why it wouldnt flash a new ROM though
Ok.
When flashing an RUU, can I do that from the boot loader?

Yes, you have two choices, or do it in the PD98IMG.zip way or flash it in fastboot. If you are S-OFF, you can flash any RUU, but I suggest and unbranded one. Don't flash a Froyo RUU or you will be in troubles.
On how to flash a RUU from fastboot, check the guide in my signature....:good:
Ok dude. I hear you.
Could you give a brief explanation on why the Froyo RUU would be bad?
Cheers brother.

If you are using a Gingerbread hboot and flash a froyo RUU then your hboot will work in super slow motion and might take half an hour to boot. And belive me fixing that is not easy nor fun...
Were you able to flash a ruu??
Hey dude.
Not tried yet, munching dinner and watching some Sons of Anarchy at the moment.
Will let you know ow how it goes though.

Hey dude.
Another few questions,
1) How do I know if I am using a GB hboot? Would a new hboot have been written when the GB OTA update came?
2) How can I tell whuch RUU is a GB RUU without the name being in the title of the RUU?
I.e. RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.32.405.6_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155891_signed.zip
Thank you again.
Greg.
Oh, and I think I have found out why I can't flash a different ROM like ARHD, I'm using CWM recovery, the instructions for ARHD state that you are only to use EXT4 recovery.
Bum!

That shouldn't be the issue. Anyway, try flashing a Ruu And see what happens. I will find an unbranded one one that works for You. Try this one And report back.

I really don't understand in all of that, but I just went through a very long process of rooting my phone etc.
and one of the million things I stumbled upon was this time I flashed a rom using CWM and the rom was corrupted..
I was thankful that CWM had the option to connect the phone via usb storage, [hard drive thing, so you could transfer files from comp to dhd]
So I just downloaded the rom again and placed it on the phone and flashed it using CWM.
I guess it might help you since you have CWM [and if you have CWM I guess you're rooted?] so you might try flashing a non-stock rom.
But I'm not deep into this stuff and don't really know, so you can try but I'm not sure it'll work.

Sorry if this has been posted already but i have searched literally hours before coming to this.
I'll start at the beggining.
I was on stock htc rom on 4.2.2 on my ONE X. i wanted to root so followed a tutorial and it went wrong, so i tried to boot the phone but it was stuck at the htc screen, so i did a nandroid restore
however the restore was for an older software version (ICS i think), now the phone boots up and i cannot use the touch in anyway. I have searched for RUU's but none work, i have tried nandroid restores but the give errors and i have also tried stock rom's but to nno avail.
I would honestly greatly appreciate help in any way shape or form. I am not a complete noob at this but a mere begginner compared to you guys here, (much love btw, helped me a hell of a lot through the years).
I can provide any information you want, just let me know how to access it as i dont have touch working. I have clockworkmod recovery etc, i dont think its rooted.
So yeah, please help me and im sorry if this is wrong section

Flash philz touch recovery , then get either a Rom or a newer nandroid, go in your recovery and mounts and storage and mount usb storage. That way you can copy a Rom on it and flash it.
Don't forget to flash boot.img!

Problem at the nandroid backup ? Or problem at recovery ?
Be clear about your issue
If it's touch on recovery update it to either philz touch or latest TWRP. They can easily be found in the original dev section.
When touch doesn't work when you restored a nand backup you need a newer one matching your official main version !

You should get a matching nand from somewhere. Without one i can't help (you should have made your own )
If there is no nand in the backup collection thread in the general section than i don't know. There is no other source available here on xda ...... maybe outside xda, a forum from your country ?

No mate , just flash a custom rom and use the phone. A stock rom is not different to your stock. It's only debranded (no carrier crap on-board). And there will be no major updates anymore, i don't even think there will be small ones either !

He has the quad-core. The XL variant has no 1.73 hboot and 4.19.720 software number. So he is in the right place
Easiest way now is to restore the nandroid backup you probably didn't make before messing around with the superuser.zip !

and did restoring http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1859714 using this as instructed
still didnt done. while restoring it said an error message.
any suggestion will be appreciated. thanks
The 3.14 ain't gonna help you as the touchscreen won't work ! You need a nand that matches your main.
If you can't find one then i suggest you install a clean new custom rom of your choice !
then cyangenmod?

if i install clean new cyangenmod? do i need to do anything extra? i mean any other installation!
do i need to follow any other method except installing using clockworkmod recovery?
sorry for asking many things, i never knew that tinkering with htc one x would cause me a brick device on my hand
You need to flash the boot.img via fastboot, make a full wipe in the recovery and install the CM.zip and the appropriate GAPPS......
thanks for your precious time

is there any way to go back to my original firmware? cause i really loved htc's own rom, it was really beautiful.
if possible pls give detailed instructions.
thanks for bring my phone back from dead
Well you need a stock nandroid backup that has the same main version number 4.19.720 and restore it. As long as you don't have that you can't go back to stock. But there are custom roms based on pure stock looks. You can install that too.
good roms based on htc sense

i have a friend who has same version-main: 4.19.720.1, like mine. but the problem he has s-on in his phone
if i install clockworkmod recovery v5.8.4.0 in his phone without unlocking it, and then make a nandroid back up and transfer that to mine, would
that help me?
if not what should i do, pls give some detailed guide, cause i really dont like cyangenmod, and the other stock looking roms have the installation guide that is quite complex for me.
thanks

You can't install anything like that via fastboot if phone is locked...you need to be unlocked and for the latest cm roms like cm 11 that recovery is too old... He can unlock too, flash a recovery make a nandroid backup without flashing another Rom and there is your backup

Other roms installs the same way as CM. Flash the boot.img make a full wipe and install the rom.zip....done
Here is the nandroid backup for HTC 038 4.19 - https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B3ipMMzpaJW4bGpMVTRNRHFpOUk/edit
But they're seperate files and you need to download them all and place them in the right folder.

i have flashed the android revolution hd rom. this rom is the perfect one, just the same as htc stock rom.you guys were really helpful.i would like to know many things about kernel and kernel flasher. what kernels actually does? i tried search the forum but couldn't find a simple post about it.
i like using android, and i wanna know most of it if i can.......thanks
Simple explanation, the kernel and hboot function sort of as a bios of a pc. It interacts with the software.
A kernel flasher....you don't need that if you flash the boot.img (kernel) straight from fastboot. The flasher does the same.
