[Q] Total block my wildfire s - HTC Wildfire S

Hello.
I have my wildfire that's practically 2 days ago that no
Continuous reboot of the white HTC screen.
All this because I moved some app on sd system
(link2sd, s-on, root, gold card,) having an urgent need for space,
seen that the partition was over 1gb ext. result:
almost 350 apps, many even expensive, its saved data, photos,
videos, notes etc.. all gone, with the joke that is not restarted.
I tried with bootloader, recovery, custom rom, hard reset etc.,
no nothing. What do I do? I throw it in for service since
will realize modding, or someone you know give me some advice?
Thank you for your attention.
Sorry for my English

try wiping dalkiv first, i think that's often problem that causes bootloops...
but if it's because you've lost some system apps, you might need to comoletely re-install system from scratch?
don't worry about your paid apps, once you get the system up and running again, you can re-load your google account and get them all back

Hello and thank you for attention.
The problem is that in recovery mode does not gives me the chance to wipe.
Not even hard reset works. I tried to install custom ROM without any results. I want to reinstall everything from scratch, is it possible?
thanks

as long as you can get to the recovery menu you should be ok.
when you press and hold volume down and power then choose recovery...what screen do you get to? is it a custom recovery like CWM (clockworkmod) or is it the stock htc recovery (which just shows some sort of caution logo i believe).
if you have only thehtc stock recovery, you need to get a PG76IMG.zip for custom recovery and put this on the root of your memory card, then restart the phone with volume down+power and it should start reading the PG76IMG.zip and install custom recovery.....
from here you'll have all the options you need to wipe everything etc...
once you have this up and running, what i tend to do if everything has gone wrong is to wipe EVERYTHING and start from scratch.
I go into mounts and storage and format everything, then coem out, choose wipe data/factory reset, then choose wipe cache, then advanced, wipe dalvik, wipe battery stats, fix permissions...
then turn off phone, choose factory reset from the bootloader menu, then bot into reovery again to install custom rom or stock rom.
hope this makes some sort of sense, this is all jsut off the top of my head mind.... :s

thanks now I try and let you know

I tried in bootloader mode with cwm recovery 5.0.2.8, and returns to the bootloader.
I installed the file pg761img. It reads CID incorrect.
Finally factory reset is accessible only in bootloader, because the device always crashes on htc white screen and when I do not restart the time.
What do you think?

if you are getting cid error, i think it means you need to make "goldcard" in order to use pg761img.zip to flash custom recovery

he should install the RUU it is stickied its gonna put your phone back to stock as if you just bought it from the store

^^^^^^this
may also still need to make goldcard though, I think I had to when I wanted to use RUU.
if you can't get around some RUU errors though, you can try using the rom.zip from the ruu, extract boot.img and system.img and use fastboot at command prompt to flash them?

no root
Help root permissions that are not forthcoming, now that a friend of mine put it back in place, I can not swirling.
I tried more than once with htc supertool v3 but no dice. I noticed, looking at the phone info
and the bootloader screen, some differences related to the rom and radio than before.
But I think the phone has the unlocked bootloader. Suggestions?

try installing root.zip from cwm recovery

ok now I try. I would explain the process please? I am afraid to make a 'more trouble

just boot into cwm recovery (which i'm presuming you have installed already? if not, just use any of the tutorials, you're s-off so should have no problem insatlling custom recovery using tutorial).
put root.zip on your sd card
boot into recovery by holding volume down and press power, then scroll to "recovery" and press power to select.
once in custom recovery, select to install zip fom sd card, select to choose zip file and choose the root.zip
no need to wipe anything, just install then reboot system and confirm it's working by launching app "superuser" and attempt to update from within the app....if it updates it will say "that was cool, do it again?"....else it will say "update failed, retry".

GAPPS disappeared
Hi, I finally solved the problem, but I have created a 'more. I installed the cwm recovery, followed by recovery I installed the zip file root. Everything perfect, it is installed superuser and then I installed from market to link link2sd 8gb sd (6.40 gb fat32 - 64mb-1gb ext3 linux swap) some apps including GMail, MARKET, MAPS AND SEARCH. The problem is that they are gone after a cleanup of the cache and the data, I also tried to install some packages from the recovery GAPPS do not install them. Some help?

if your apps are missing maybe sounds like the ext partition is bot being mounted?
run link2sd and there is an option to "recreate mont scripts", be sure to choose the correct partition type that you have created e.g. ext2, ext3, or ext4?

stuck on white htc evo 4g screen

ok so i tried to update the radio wiimax and prl cause i wanted to update to myns rom something went wrong and now im stuck at the white evo 4g screen i did make a back up and tried to recover but its still stuck someone hellp please ..
any help would be great cant imagin being wihout my evo =[
it also says wrong image when i boot in2 hboot or recovery im a noob at this so if anyone can get back o me id be willing to give any info needed to fix this
also when going into nandroid to restore it says
"sd-ext.img not found skipping restore of /sd-ext."
I had a similar issue when I first flashed a ROM. What version of what recovery are you using? Is it clockworkmod or RA? You will probably need to flash a new PC36IMG.zip file to get it back up and running. I used the unrooted version found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=829045
Then I re-rooted with unrevoked, and proceeded to reflash the ROM. If you are using clockworkmod, you need to change to RA, and if you are using an older version of RA you need to update. Let me know what you're using, and I'll try to help.

yes im using clockworkmod and how can i sync my phone with my comp to flash the pc36img.zip .?
You'll have to do it while in recovery. Pull the battery on the phone, and put it back in. Hold donw the volume down button on the side while you hold down the power button. This will boot the phone into the bootloader. After a few seconds it will scan for some files, just ignore that. Once it scans, you can move your sleection by using the volume down button. Move your selection to recovery, and push the power button to select it. Then you'll see the recovery screen come up. In one of the menus there is a selection for mass storage, or something like that. When you toggle that on, you can use your phone like a disk drive, and just drop the PC36IMG.zip file in the folder.
ok fter i do that what should i do
again thank you so much for your help
in clockwork recovery you will have
-reboot system now
-apply sdcard:update.zip
-wipe data/ factory reset
-wipe cache partition
-install zip from sdcard
-nandroid
-partition menu
- advanced
**You want to select partition menu**
Partition menu gives you thes options:
mount/data
unmount/ cache
mount/ sdcard
format system'format data
format cache
format boot
mount USB storage
**Now plug your phone into your computer and select mount USB Storage**
ok so in the exact order after i put the file on my sd card
In order to install the update, follow the steps below. This will erase everything you had stored in your phone, and set it back to how it was when you got it from the factory. Once you drop the new PC36IMG.zip file onto the phone, shut the phone off. If there's no menu option, then pull the battery. Then power the phone into bootloader again. It should scan for the same files, and this time find the one you put in there. When this happens a blue bar will show up on the right side. When the bar finishes, it will ask if you want to update with the new file. Say yes, and let it finish. It will probably restart once during the update, so don't freak. When it's all done it will ask if you want to reboot. Say yes. Now it will be back to stock. If you want to try to flash again, re-root using enrevoked. When that's done, isntall ROM Manager from the market. When that's installed, open it. At the bottom of the screen should be a selection for flash an alternate recovery (Amon RA), if it's higher than version 1.8, then install it and you're good to go. Clockworkmod has a lot of issues.
Did it work out for you?
yes thank you so much I got my phone up and running

[Q] HTC Desire - S-OFF/Root after ROM install with freezing!!!

Hi All,
I hope somebody can help me in case of following issue.
After some months I decided I try to install "not original ROM" to the phone.
After I read many instructions I started S-Off (Software: Alpharevx) root (Software: Unrevoked) - I didn't have any special problem with them based on the instructions.
After that I see following in Hboot menu of the phone:
"BRAVO PVT4 SHIP S-OFF
HBOOT-6.93.1002
MICROP-051d
TOUCHPANEL-SYNT0101
RADIO-5.11.05.27
AUG 10 2010, 17:52:18"
I chose more ROMs to decide which is the best for me. I installed the first one, the phone restarted and it was frozen at the "HTC logo" (with white screen).
I thought the ROM is wrong, so I tried all, but I met same problem.
One time the system (android) loaded and started, but after the first restart it was also frozen at the "HTC logo". I installed back the original ROM, and it works well.
My questions: What did I do wrong or why it freeze always? I forgot one step, etc.?
Thank you for the help!

You probably forgot to partition SD Card, most ROM's requires ext2/3/4 partition usually 512MB+, though some needs 1gb+.
There is loads of partitioning guides, i advice to do it with gParted, if you're not comfortable with linux then try recovery from my signature, you'll do it with few clicks.
If you dont know how to flash recovery, download this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=661317&stc=1&d=1311251519
Put it onto your sdcard (not any folders, just root of the SD), rename it to "PB99IMG.zip" or PB99IMG if you have file extensions disabled in windows, and boot into bootloader. (hold vol- and power)
Will ask if you want to update, accept. Go into recovery and make an 1GB EXT3 partition, now flash the ROM you want.
Ofcourse full wipe/factory reset and dalvik cache wipe before you flash new ROM.
Yeah, I also like to use fastboot commander (requires java JDK) to wipe boot, system, userdata, cache and sd-ext.. it's a more extensive wipe than just wiping userdata/ factory reset and ROM's either always seem to work better or it's maybe just a placebo effect
I think the version of the RADIO is old.
I have a new, but I do not know how to install it.
I would like to ask for help.
What programs do i need and where can I download it.
Thank you very much.
use the links in the post above to get fastboot commander, and a newer radio (from official GB update) is in my signature.
Download fastboot commander, boot into fastboot mode, select radio, browse for the radio.img then flash radio. And you're done, it takes a few seconds and I have to remind you to check the md5 because you can brick your phone if it goes bad. so do not interrupt it.
radio MD5 - 432ED609D76AE57BA493DA875CDC9D2D
Hi All,
Now my phone works well...
Thanks for the help!

[Q] Stuck on bootscreen

Hey, My phone was working fine till yesterday. N when i tried to flash dk froyo .i had to change the kernel and i guess the bootscreen(htc logo) freezed because of that. I tried flashing hcdr and other kernels and even changed rom back to cm 7.But nothing seems to help.Only cwm is working on my phone. CAn someone help me please
btw its a wildfire
Your best bet Is to try run a ruu as that would reset the phone back to stock, bootloader and kernal, but depending on how you s-offed you may lose the ability to root.( untill you s-off again.) Good luck
sent from my steroid powered, cyanogenmod filled wrecking machine! using xda app.
Perform a full wipe (In CWM, Select "Data Wipe / Factory Reset", then, staying in CWM, go to Mounts and Storage, Select "Format /system". After this, flash a ROM (any) and check if it boots.
Tried. Its still not working. Can any1 post a nandroid backup file of any rom for wildfire. Please. I formatted my sd card too by mistake.
and while flashing a ruu. it always shows a error E:Failure at line 65 and something. Its different everytime
Connect your Wildfire to your PC, In CWM, Go to Mounts and Storage, and Select "Mount USB Storage". This will activate Mass Storage Mode and you can access your SDCard on your PC as normal. (I don't think anyone would upload a Nandroid backup of his own, it contains personal stuff like contacts and all. But, if someone does, good for you)
i mount usb storage n then do wat..? i tried flashing every rom possible. But its still not working. Is it the kernel's problem or what??
I am pretty certain performing a full wipe (Following options in CWM - 1: Data Wipe - Factory Reset, along with 2: Wipe Cache Partition, 3: Format /cache, 4: Format /system, 5: Format /data, 6: Wipe cache partition, 7: Wipe Dalvik Cache) in CWM and flashing a fresh ROM will fix your issue, UNLESS your phone is not bricked due to bad flash, but since you already claim that you have done that, I can't help you any further on this.
EDIT - Also one more thing - When you flash the kernel / ROM, do you get a confirmation message "Installation Complete"? What is your CWM version?
Yes i do.it says installation comple and its v3.0.0.6
Sense ROM's like DK will not work on CWM versions above 2.x.x.x. Anyway, since you tried CM7 already, One last suggestion in that case would be to try flashing the RUU via the bootloader.
Steps -
1: Download the RUU you want to install
2: Extract the rom.zip from the RUU. Procedure here
3: Once you have that rom.zip, Rename it to PC49IMG.zip
4: Transfer this to the root of your SDCard (i.e. - Not in any folders / sub-folders)
5: Restart device in HBoot Mode (Press Vol Down + Power simultaneously)
6: It will scan for the file, and ask to install. Follow On-Screen instructions.
Ill give it a try.
owe you big time man..Thanx a lot..

Stuck in Recovery

Hello all, I've searched around and tried many different things to resolve my little problem. I'll try and list out all the details of what I've done and perhaps someone could help me find the error in my ways.
I've got a - VZW Droid Incredible - S-On - Unlocked. The H.boot Is 1.02.000 Radio is 2.15.10.07.07.
*History*
I started with a bootloader locked Droid that was stuck in a boot loop that started after a failed OTA update. The H.boot was lower too, I'm not sure what it was. The device would only boot into the stock recovery and factory reset wouldn't help. It just hung on the white HTC screen.
To fix that I tried to flash a variety of stock images from the SD but each time it failed with a versioning error. I assume that was due to the bootloader being locked and on an OLD h.boot After some troubleshooting I was able to issue a fastboot oem reset command and I was able to boot into the OS.
So then I began working with a factory default Droid running 2.2
Once I was in the OS I used the HTC Dev site to unlock the bootloader. That all went well. I was running Stock 2.2 with a unlocked bootloader. Next I flashed a custom recovery. copied a ROM to the SD and booted into recovery to flash CM 7.2. I began to run into problems at this point.
Then and Now when I boot into recovery (TWRP, or ClockworkMod) I'm unable to mount cache, internal SD, External Sd, nor can I toggle USB. I'm not really clear on what causes that. However because I can not mount the SD I can not flash a ROM, and my attempts to get back to a working phone have been unfruitful thus far.
I created a problem at this point when I wiped System. I ASSUMED that I could drop the stock image back onto the SD card and get back to factory but that doesn't work. Because I wiped system each time I reboot the phone I go directly into recovery.
( I really didn't think that it would mount system and wipe it because it wouldn't mount the other partitions... WRONG)
So now I have a inaccessible SD card while in recovery, a wiped system partition (and boot), and no clear way to get back to good.
I've downloaded numerous stock images, formatted two different SD cards FAT32 saved the stock image to the SD Card as PB31IMG.zip and booted to HBoot watched the progress bar load/complete then it stops and I'm left sitting at the bootloader screen. I can reboot expecting to boot into a stock system but each time I'm dropped back into recovery and recovery will tell me that I have no loaded OS, to me that means the PB31IMG didn't write to system, but IDK.
A RUU won't work because I can't boot into android.
I did extract the system.img and the boot.img from a stock image and used fastboot to write both of those partitions without error, but that didn't help either.
Does anyone have some Thoughts or advice on what to do next?
Many thanks,

Try this, reformat your sdcard fat32 with a pc. Then place only this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip on the sd in no folders (Do not rename). Boot to hboot (vol down + power), it should find the file and prompt you to press vol up to install. I think your issue with the ruu before was that you were trying to flash an older version than you already have installed. If that dosent work try fastboot flashing cwm again, and see if it can mount the sd then.
Thread moved. Please post all questions here in the correct section of the forum.
Thanks

[Q] HTC Desire (Stock 2.2 Froyo) + put a custom rom on it

Hi,
I have an old HTC Desire and the memory is running low (Facebook app is getting too big ).
It's still running on 2.2 Froyo (stock) but I needed a gold card years ago (somehow I don't know why anymore, maybe because it was sim-locked) to install Froyo on it.
I know my Desire isn't rooted and all... haven't been following Android versions and I was wondering if I can put on some of the latest version on a Desire (Jelly bean, 4.2?) somehow.
I know years ago it was hard to root/put a custom rom on it. Now a days I read there are much easier methods. Can someone put me in the good direction?
Thanks!

This is what i would recommend. S-off and install a custom recovery using revolutionary, flash a 4.2 rom of your choice.
First download htc sync, then uninstall it so that it leaves only the necessary drivers behind. Then install these fastboot drivers. Also make sure that usb debugging is enabled on your phone. Then download a rom that you want to install from here and copy it to your sd card. Also if the rom doesnt come with gapps, make sure that you download and copy those as well.
Next download revolutionary from here and also fill out the information so that you can get the beta key. Plug your phone in, unzip the file and then run revolutionary.exe. Continue through all the steps and say yes to installing the recovery.
Now boot into hboot (turn phone off, then turn back on using volume down and power) and it should say s-off. From hboot select RECOVERY and it should open your newly installed clockworkmod recovery. Select wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, and then go to advanced and wipe dalvik cache. After that go to install zip from sdcard, choose the rom that you downloaded earlier and flash it. Do the same for the gapps. Then reboot and profit.

Thanks! I got some questions:
1) Will I need a goldcard? I made one years ago but don't know how to check if it is already goldcarded?
2) Which hboot should I choose when I want to get the beta key of revolutianary?
3) Also what serial number? That of my phone?
4) What do you mean by "Also check if the rom doesnt come with gapps"? Is the google play/store not a standard in the custom roms?
I'm going to follow the steps above I hope I can accomplish this withouth problems

Make a goldcard. (I never did and had no problems, but if you are getting CID errors with revolutionary make one)
Use the hboot version that you have on your phone. You said above that its the 0.93 version, so use that.
Roms usually don't come with the google apps (including the play store) because of copyright issues. You will need to flash the google apps package.
Nevermind
Also how do I get root? Or is this already done before I install a custom rom?
I installed this rom (cyanomod). I still having issues with internal memory. Any ideas? I didn't quite understand the wizard options for A2Ext+: where you needed to choose Data, Dalvic cache or both.

Custom ROMs come with root most of the time.
You need to partition your SD card. Look in the desire general section for the guide, probably on the first page.

Ok it worked. I found out using 4EXT. But then I wanted to restart. It is taking ages (I have a Transcend 8 GB micro sd class 6). It just keeps on the cyanomod loading screen.
EDIT: removed the sd card, now i had to go throught the install wizard for setting my phone.
EDIT 2: have mounted the sd card again, but can't install any app (not enough memory). When I look at the amount of memory I have i see 0.98 GB free
EDIT3: Reinstalled the rom. all works now.
