Problem with s-off - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there. I have small problem with s-offing my desire z.... what i done is that i unlocked the phone with Htcdev and flasheod cwm... then i left the phone in Poland... when i got it back I flashed the custom rom... but then i realized i forgot to s off it.... i tried numerous tutorials i managed t change version number to allow downgrade but i always fail when it comes to flash the official rom PC10IMG.zip file.... is there any way i can get it to work? (btw i assume that i dont have to root the device once the custom rom is rooted already) I used this guide

Thanks.

You do need to root it, and you will also have to relock your bootloader first as htcdev unlocked hboot is nearly worthless. Find nipqer's guide and you'll be good.

I was actually followin nipqlers guide but the problem seemed to be the unlocked boot loader i must have had skiped it.... anyways i reclocked the boot loader and it seemed to work thanks

where r the experts? really need help flashing "PJ46IMG_1.29.709.12.zip" stock rom

where r the experts? really need help flashing "PJ46IMG_1.29.709.12.zip" stock rom
Folks, my RUU does not exist or leaked at all, after months of searching i managed to get its "PJ46IMG_ENDEAVOR_U_ICS_40_hTC_Asia_TW_1.29.709.12_Radio_1.1204.107.14_release_261362_signed.zip"
i have no USB-Y cable, and it's really hard to get it in my country.
so is there any workaround to flash this rom? plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
also please note that MY RUU DOES NOT EXIST at all common servers, unless if some one has it so may be he can share it to restore my mobile back to stock.
If that is truly a signed zip and the correct one for your device then do the following
Make sure you have plenty of battery and re lock your bootloader and have stock recovery
Boot to fastboot
Fastboot oem rebootRUU
new screen should appear with HTC logo
Fastboot flash zip nameofdownloadedfile.Zip
It will take a while to send and if the info all matches up your phone will perform the steps exactly the same as the ruu

Try reformating your sdcard fat32 with a pc. Then place only the ruu on the sdcard and try again. Sometimes that gets it to work.
My sdcard is FAT32 , I'm tired with it
When I try do it with android-sdk I get "FAILED (remote: not allowed)"

Even though its already fat32, sometimes reformating it gets it to work.
If your getting the remote not allowed message, it means the bootloader is still locked.

Thats strange, with the bootloader unlocked you should have no issues fastboot flashing cwm recovery. Download this file http://dinc.does-it.net/Guide_Root_New_Hboot/recovery.img, and place it on your pc in the same folder as fastboot.exe. Open a cmd prompt with the phone connected. The phone should be in hboot and say fastboot usb plug in red at the top. Type " fastboot flash recovery recovery.img ".
It's working fine with recovery

That sounds like a bad download/corruption of the PB file, or the version of ruu you are trying to flash is older than the version on the phone. Try this one http://dinc.does-it.net/Stock_Images/4.08.605.15/PB31IMG.zip

WLAN does not work after 4.4 Update

Hey Guys,
i wanted to upgrade my HTC One M8 to the newest T-Mobile Germany Firmware. My HTC One was rooted and I had the TWRP Recovery with ViperRom.
I installed a Nandroid Backup with the 1.12.111.18 (4.3) Firmware. After that i installed the 1.57.111.2 Stock Recovery, than I relocked the Bootloader and after the Root was gone, I updated my Phone to the 1.57.111.2 (4.4.2), and now my WiFi is not working. I even upgraded to a newer Version of the Stock Recovery, but it still not working.
Here are some Information about my Phone.

Need help returning to stock

Hey guys, so I recently got an S6 but was going to sell my m7 for a little extra cash. It had the purple camera issue tho so I was going to return it to stock and send it in for repair. I attempted to follow the return to stock thread but something went wrong. I started out bootloader unlocked via HTCdev and S-off. I thought I had successfully flashed the RUU and proceeded with command to go back to S-on. Well now I can only get to the bootloader. When I try to reboot it always brings me back to the bootloader. Currently it says Tampered, Locked, S-on and I can only do stuff through fastboot. I haven't been able to successfully flash anything from here. Anybody know if there's anything else I can do to get this phone running again? Appreciate any help
What firmware is the phone on? While in fastboot, it will tell you hboot version as well as the os version. If that doesn't work, do fastboot getvar all and post it here with imei and serial removed.
Thanks for the reply. It was on the latest firmware that Santod had posted. OS is 5.28.605.2
If you are on 5.28, the 4.4.3 ruu might work for you.

Whenever I try to use the EXE file I get a connection error. I'm not sure why, the phone's connected and I can still use fastboot. I have the latest HTC sync manager installed so the drivers should be good. If I try to just flash the RUU I get a signature error. Any other ideas that might work?

Dude first you have to extract the zip file then run the .exe file just read the instructions in the thread of that RUU. Happy Flashing
OK, I feel like an idiot. I've been trying so many different things to get this to work I copied the section of the command window that I knew wasn't right., however it is still not working. What I have done is extracted the zip from that thread and tried to flash the rom.zip file that was included in it. Unfortunately I still get a signature fail. When I try to use the exe program in that thread I get a USB connection error every time. Thank you both for your replies. It seems that thread is my only shot so I'm going to take my questions over there.

Confused on the upgrade process

Hey everyone,
Its been a long time since I updated my phone.
Here's my configuration:
HTC One M8
Android Version: 4.4.4
HTC Sense version: 6.0
Unlocked, M8_UL, S-On
HBOOT: 3.16.0.0000
Radio: 1.15.2133156.UA13G
(bootloader) product: m8_ul
(bootloader) platform: hTCBmsm8974
(bootloader) modelid: 0P6B10000
(bootloader) cidnum: HTC__001
(bootloader) security: on
(bootloader) build-mode: SHIP
(bootloader) boot-mode: FASTBOOT
Now I tried to turn to convert to S-OFF using Sunshine but it comes up with this: Debug Kernel/Ramdisk - Your device has a debuggable ramdisk. You need to flash a non-debuggable boot.img
I want to go back to the hassle free official Android version provided by HTC. I have tried to look for a up to date guide, however the download links are dead.
Can someone point me in the right step? It'll be much appreciated.
Thank you
why do you need to s-off the device ??
AFAIK it will work on stock roms only ( rooted is fine )
you have an outdated version of android
to be completely stock and have the latest android version available for this device officially

did you relocked the bootloader ??
if yes try another method to flash and check the md5 for the RUU.zip
this is the easiest method to flash a signed RUU.zip https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67307303&postcount=1748

The bootloader is currently unlocked (it says ** UNLOCKED ** in purple).
I just tried to open the ZIP file, in Windows, and it says cannot be opened, so I do think it was corrupt somehow. I am going to download it again and see if it does it again.
If it doesn't work again, I will try your other method.
Thank you buddy.

no you can't open the .zip it's signed with htc keys and you can't open it by normal apps
now relock the bootloader as the guide said in the linked post above
it should be relocked to flash a signed RUU.zip on s-on device
no need to download again
